Chapter 174: An Empty After Nirvana (Part I)
The direct illusion disappeared for a long time, and Ye Qingcheng was shocked and relieved. He stiffened his body to hold the jade unicorn the size of a wine jar, staring straight at its round black eyes.
"Little ghost, now I believe the old man is, right?" said the jade qilin with his head held high, his posture very similar to that of the small stone beast in front of the courtyard gate.
Ye Qingcheng hurriedly put down the jade qilin, and his heart was terrified, the fantasy just now was too majestic to be forged, he arched his hand and said: "I didn't expect that the predecessor was really the jade unicorn that dominated the world a thousand years ago! ”
"Well, if you offend the old man, you should apologize with death. The jade qilin said proudly: "The old man allowed you to break it yourself." ”
"Ugh. Ye Qingcheng was stunned.
At this time, Lihuo lightly jumped down from Ye Qingcheng's shoulder, stretched out a soft little claw, and quickly flicked it on the jade qilin's head, and was about to knock it down.
"Bastard, and you, the little wild cat, have also offended the old man, let's cut ourselves together!" the jade qilin just got up, shouted angrily, and was knocked down by the fire again. At this time, it is like a newborn young beast, although it wants to reveal its majesty in its tone, but it is helpless that even its voice is milky, even if it is angry, it shows its cute side. It's no wonder that Lihuo keeps trying to tease it.
"Get away from the fire, don't be presumptuous. Ye Qingcheng hurriedly hugged Lihuo in his arms, and looked at the jade unicorn in disbelief, why did the heroic beast that was powerful in the world thousands of years ago become so wolf?
"Keep an eye on your cat, don't let it get near the old man. The jade qilin stared at the fire with jealousy, and said breathlessly.
"What happened to the senior?" Ye Qingcheng asked suspiciously.
"Have you ever heard of Nirvana?" The Jade Qilin jumped to the edge of the stone trough of the Hundred Grass Spirit Liquid and looked at Ye Qingcheng from a distance.
Nirvana, i.e., being born again after death.
This phenomenon occasionally appears in phoenixes with true fire spirit sources, and after they die, their souls will not leave their bodies. Their bodies will be secretly alive for a long time to come, until when the time is right, the corpse will burn into a real fire, incinerate a phoenix egg, and hatch a young phoenix with living memories from the egg. This process is called nirvana.
"I've heard of it, but I don't know that Qilin can also be nirvana. Ye Qingcheng replied.
"Although the chance is very small and unpredictable, there is a certain probability of nirvana for heavenly demons. The jade qilin said: "It's just that after some Heavenly Demons are nirvana, their strength will reach a higher level, while others will have to grow up again from infancy." The old man is very tragic, and Nirvana has become the latter. ”
"It's no wonder that my predecessors don't have any cultivation at all now. Ye Qingcheng said.
"So what? As long as the old man is given a short hundred years of growth time, the old man can still dominate the world!" said the jade qilin ambitiously.
A hundred years is a lifetime for mortals. However, for the Jade Qilin, it was only a short period of growth, however, Ye Qingcheng still had a lot of doubts in his heart, "Who was the predecessor killed to lead to Nirvana?"
The Jade Qilin hesitated, recalling the ultimate battle that destroyed the world nearly a thousand years ago-the Battle of the Beihai, that is, the contest between humans and brute beasts, the confrontation between the Great Wilderness and the Yun Clan, that battle included ninety percent of the strong people in the world, even the peak strong beasts of the hero rank (seventh order), in that terrifying blood wave, they all looked pale and insignificant. It still remembers it now, and its heart is still pounding. However, it did not answer immediately, but changed its mouth and said, "Little ghost, you promise me one thing first. ”
"The seniors talked about it before. ”
"Don't talk to anyone about who I am. The jade unicorn said: "The jade unicorn that once amazed the world, how majestic is it? I don't want people today to know that I have become a useless little move." ”
"Good. Ye Qingcheng readily agreed.
"One more thing. The jade qilin looked Ye Qingcheng up and down, and said, "I have sensed a familiar aura from you, although it is very faint, but it can be determined that it is the breath of my righteous brother." ”
"Seniors and madness are righteous brothers?" Ye Qingcheng said in shock.
"Yes, I, Mad and the other five brothers are collectively known as the Seven Murderers of the Great Wilderness. Jade Qilin said. Although it was born in the Buzhou Mountain of the Yuntian Continent, it rose in the Great Wilderness, "A thousand years ago, I was the boss of the Seven Fierce Beings, Jade! I led the six righteous brothers to make the name of the Seven Fierce Brothers in the Great Wilderness!"
"Seven fierce bosses?!" Ye Qingcheng stared at the jade qilin in shock.
"Is Mad dead?" asked the Jade Qilin.
Ye Qingcheng nodded and said, "It sneaked into this continent and wantonly slaughtered living beings in the Luofeng Mountain Range, and was later killed in the misty valley of Luofeng Mountain by the Yun Clan's military member, Split Wind. ”
The jade qilin was not too surprised, but there was a touch of amazement in its eyes, and it sighed slightly: "With its arrogance, no one is restrained, sooner or later there will be such a day." To be able to die at the hands of Splitting Wind is not to dishonor its name, after all, Splitting Wind is much stronger than all of our Seven Evils. What's the matter with the breath on you?"
"My dad and I were passing by, and he killed him, and I had my heart pierced. Ye Qingcheng recalled the original incident again, although his heart would still ache faintly, but he was no longer so nightmarish frightened. He said calmly: "When I was about to die, my master appeared, he had a friendship with the Snow Emperor Splitting Wind, and he couldn't bear to see me die tragically, so he dug out Ying Long's heart and replaced it in my body. ”
"Change the dragon's heart?" the jade qilin said in surprise, "You still have a friendship with the splitting wind, who is your master sacred?"
"He never told me, only that his surname was Gumu. Ye Qingcheng said.
"The last Gumu surname is Yuntian. However, in the Battle of the North Sea, I saw with my own eyes a heroic death. Jade Qilin said.
"Will the Cloud Beast King still have brothers?"
"Nope. The jade qilin said firmly: "He has no father, no mother, and no brothers and sisters. However, there are many women who have been good with him, is it possible that he still has descendants?"
If Yuntian had descendants, he would have lived for more than a thousand years by now.
"Why don't you go and meet my master? Ye Qingcheng asked.
"Nope. The Jade Qilin said decisively: "Until I rise again, I will not see anyone!"
As you can see how important it is to face it.
Ye Qingcheng could understand it, so he continued: "After replacing Ying Long's heart, it still has a little residual thought left in my body, and once I come into contact with thunder and lightning, it will come out and occupy my body. However, it does not have the memory of its lifetime, and can only control the thunder spirits around it. ”
Hearing this, the Jade Qilin was silent for a while, then sighed and said, "I don't know how my other five righteous brothers are doing." ”
"What happened to the seniors during the Battle of the North Sea?" Ye Qingcheng asked curiously.
