Chapter IV: Guarding
Luck all over your body, feel the fluctuation of spiritual power. Tianxin gathered the surrounding spiritual power in his right hand, and the cold light flashed in his eyes, and he struck out. Brush - like the palm of the god slapped out, the lake in front of him was instantly split by the palm print. Suddenly retracted, the split lake slowly regained its calm after being washed by the waves.
"Is this the spiritual power of the soul?"
Having just advanced from a martial artist to a soul, feeling the fluctuation of spiritual power from a different kind of general, Tianyue was both excited and a little scared for Tianxin.
Tianxin's sister Tianyue was a unique genius among the younger generation of the Lin family before her death, and she had completely entered the soul stage when she was ten years old. Not only that, but in the next two years of cultivation, he grew at an astonishing rate, and soon entered the fifth stage of the soul. This was the cultivation progress that had never been seen in the entire Lin family—no, even the entire Yanfeng Town. Call it a genius, and there is no fault in real numbers.
However, Tianyue rejected the Lin family's focus on cultivating her
Because she also has a brother who has no one to take care of and has been abandoned
Each other's only loved ones
Tianyue hid in the woods, witnessing the growth of Tianxin, and at the same time, a sour feeling gushed out inexplicably.
Did you just accept it without hesitation? accept the terrible power that the demon gave you...... Tianxin, don't you have any doubts at all?
Tianyue thought so. Every day, she thought about it over and over again, but she couldn't say it. Ever since the demon had pulled her back from hell, she had dreamed of recognizing Heaven, but all she saw was the cold blade.
The demon put armor on her, and it was more appropriate to say it was a shackle than armor. Although she has no regrets about becoming the sword spirit of Tianxin, this layer of armor is like a thick barrier separating the sister and brother from many years of friendship.
That demon not only deceived Tianxin, but also took away his heart, and even cut off their sister-brother relationship. Unforgivable, Tianyue secretly vows to find out that demon to regain everything that Tianxin has lost, and make her pay!
Tianxin seemed to be a little tired, and lay down in the shade of the tree to rest. Tianyue saw that the opportunity to speak was coming, so she moved towards Tianxin, who expected Tianxin to be alert, and suddenly got up and grabbed her neck.
"Hmm......"
"I warn you, stay there and don't follow me anymore!"
"Why ......" Tianyue took off her mask and wept sadly: "...... Don't you know me, Tianxin...... I'm your sister Tianyue......"
"Ugh!"
Tianxin couldn't stand the ghost in front of him who had the same face as his sister, and threw it to the ground, and Tianyue let out a painful **.
"A ghost, not allowed to imitate my sister's face!"
"Uhh
"Otherwise, don't blame me for being unkind!"
Leaving Tianyue, Tianxin left alone. Tianyue grabbed the sand fiercely, eager to tear off the shackles that bound her. It's all to blame on that demon, she made Tianxin not recognize herself, no matter how she explained, Tianxin was terrible indifference to herself. Having lost too much, Tianxin has become numb to this extent, which makes Tianyue more and more cold.
How can I save you, Heavenly Heart?
Bang –
The sand suddenly collapsed, and out of it came a fifth-order sword fighting beast, the Yellow Sand Poisonous Scorpion. Wielding a poisonous claw, he launched an attack on the heart of heaven.
"Cut!"
Tianxin is upset, and he can vent this anger on this guy.
"Hmph, just use you to practice your hands!"
The spiritual power was released, but Tianyue was not around, and the sword spirit did not appear. Tianxin didn't care about the difference in his body, and he gave up drawing his sword and punching head-on.
"Heavenly Heart is dangerous!"
The Yellow Sand Scorpion is a fifth-order sword fighting beast, and Tianxin doesn't even draw a sword, which is tantamount to jumping into a fire pit. In a hurry, Tianyue instantly moved in front of Tianxin, drew his sword and slashed the poisonous scorpion's claws.
"It's you again!"
"Why do you do this, it's dangerous!"
"Don't pretend to be a sister to teach me!"
The scorpion became more furious and spat venom. Tianyue hugged Tianxin, and her body with embodied spiritual power blocked the extremely corrosive venom. Tianxin was not injured, but Tianyue's body was mostly corroded by the venom rich in spiritual power.
"Tianxin, it's okay, do you feel any pain?"
"You-"
Seeing that most of Tianyue's body was gone, he still put himself first. Tianxin gritted his teeth and scolded angrily:
"What are you kidding, who asked you to save me, it's obviously a dead man, don't pretend!"
"That's right, I'm a dead man!" Tianyue endured the pain and retorted, "No matter what you think of me, how you treat me. Tianxin, I will protect you—because I am your sword spirit and your sister!"
The sharp pincers of the poisonous scorpion pierced Tianyue's spirit body, and seeing this, Tianxin couldn't help but finally draw his sword and jumped up: "Beast, I can't spare you!"
The poisonous scorpion was dismantled by Tianxin's rapid combo, and his death was miserable. Digging out its inner pill, Tianxin immediately used spiritual power to repair Tianyue's body until it was dark.
"You don't have to save me, I can recover on my own. ”
“......”
Tianxin kept a calm face, did not answer, and continued to carry capacity until the repair was completed. As his sword spirit, Tianyue clearly felt that most of Tianxin's spiritual power had been lost. It's rare to advance to the soul today, but because he saved himself, he fell back to the martial artist.
"I'm sorry, you just advanced to the soul, but you saved me ......"
"I'm the one who should say I'm sorry. ”
While preparing dinner, Tianxin replied, "I've been running away, escaping the fact that my sister is dead. I was expelled from Yanfeng Town, but I still couldn't help but want to go back there, to my sister's side. I really wanted to see you again and apologize to you—but I committed an even more unforgivable sin. Not only did I take my sister's life, but I ended up shackling my soul. I don't deserve your salvation at all......"
"Tianxin, it's not your fault. ”
"Then what do you say! My thirst for power attracted that demon, and it was because of my ** that I made you like this, sister! Not only did I deny you, but I also hurt you. Why, I'm still alive after doing all kinds of things that violate ethics and morals, why, you still have to smile at me who is already unbearable! I don't deserve your forgiveness at all!"
Tianyue felt some relief, at least, in her opinion, her brother had not lost their friendship. It's just that I can't clarify my own path, and I can't forgive myself.
"Because you're my brother. Tianxin, you have done nothing wrong, this guilt is just your self-blame. I've never blamed you, on the contrary, I'm glad to be your sword spirit. So that you can concentrate on cultivation and become a real martial artist, my sister's last wish has also come true. ”
"Sister, your body!?"
"Ah, it's all this time. ”
Tianyue's body began to disappear gradually, Tianxin was startled, and quickly used spiritual power to stop it, but Tianyue refused.
"Sister, don't be willful at this time!"
"It's useless, the venom of the Yellow Sand Scorpion is tempered by spiritual power, and the damage to the spirit body is very huge. Tianxin, stop wasting spiritual power. ”
"I don't care!" The speed of the spirit body collapse did not slow down at all, and Tianxin increased its output: "It was not easy to meet, but I said those words to my sister and did those excessive things to you." But sister, you don't blame me at all, and you protect me. ”
"What a stupid brother, isn't it normal for my sister to protect you?"
"Don't show it out of my eyes again, I beg you...... Don't leave me alone again......"
"Stupid, of course I'm not going away. It's just that now, I'm going to take a break......"
"Don't, sister, I beg you!"
"I'll always be there for you to protect you, absolutely- good night, Tianxin......"
"No-sister!!"
Tianxin failed to keep Tianyue in the end, and she turned into spiritual power and merged into the sword. Under the light of the jumping fire, there was a faint light, as if to tell that he was still alive there.
"Sister, I'm sorry—I'm sorry!"
Holding Tianyue's sword, Tianxin cried all night. His eyes were bleeding, and he dried up his last tears. The dawn of the desert was exceptionally early, and in the early morning when the temperature had not yet risen, Tianxin continued to embark on his journey.
Sister, I'm going to use my own power to get stronger, and I'm going to definitely bring you back to life—absolutely!
