Chapter 169: The Bottomless Pit

"Ordinary and happy life, if it weren't for that accident, I would have entered Beijing to catch the exam, maybe I would have been named on the gold list and become an official in the court."

After Su Lin finished speaking, he looked at the other party, but this answer didn't seem to satisfy Lu Zhuyu.

She turned her head to look at the stream and said to herself: "Before, for a long time, I thought that I was acting to protect innocent people and save the common people.

But then one day. When I killed a monk, I suddenly knew, in fact, I didn't have such noble sentiments, when I killed demon beasts, I didn't feel anything, only when I killed a monk, I felt a sense of refreshment, or freshness. ”

Lu Zhuyu turned his head and said seriously: "At that time, I suddenly figured it out, what I was pursuing was to fulfill my master's promise, although that promise had long since passed the deadline, had broken the contract, and could no longer be fulfilled, but I kept repeating what I promised, every time I killed a monk, there was a moment as if I had fulfilled my promise."

I don't feel that freshness in you. ”

"What did you promise your master?" Su Lin asked curiously.

"It's not worth mentioning, it's almost like that, whether those monks are good or evil, I'm going to kill them."

"Then why didn't you kill me and Nam Jixian?"

"Later, I experienced some things, and the conditions relaxed a little bit."

"Oh, that doesn't sound like a pursuit, it's more like an obsession."

Lu Zhuyu touched his chin and groaned for a while, and finally said: "It doesn't matter if you call it, but if a person is already a very painful thing, but he doesn't even have a little emotional return, it is even more painful...... People sometimes need to be obsessed. ”

"It's okay, I don't think it's anything."

"Huainan is much better than you in this regard, although she has been strange lately, I can feel that she has found what she is after." Lu Zhuyu stood up from the stone and changed his words, "When are you going to the deep pit?" ”

Su Lin was silent for a while, scooped up a handful of stream water, washed his face, stood up and said, "Now." ”

"Guess you're going to say that, then I'll take you there, you don't know the way."

"I can do it alone, Tianzun will take me there."

……

……

"I slept so soundly in the middle of the night, and you woke me up." Tianzun yawned, half-joking.

Does God complain about being woken up from sleep? Is it because only the human senses are left, so it is becoming more and more human-like? ”

"Yes, the senses are not something that can be fought by experience and intelligence." Tianzun said.

"When you say that, I feel like I still imagined you too strongly."

"Disillusionment, disillusionment," Tianzun sighed, "If you want to see the gods you have in your stereotype, then you can go and perform some dangerous summoning rituals, and then you will be able to see the gods in your mind."

Those guys are not like me, they all put on a high-minded posture, so that the moment you see them, you can't bear the coercion, and your spirit is on the verge of collapse, you will feel that you are an ant in front of them.

But those are just pseudo-gods, they are all a group of guys who are strong from the outside, no matter how high their posture is, no matter how unpredictable their words are, and no matter how contemptuous they are about human beings, they can't change their true nature. ”

"And what exactly is your essence?"

"To name my nickname in human terms, it is the idealist, the maintainer of order, the god who can never win, the one who longs for survival, the mediator, the god of the strongest personality, the god of chains. These titles, if all of them are put to the letter, are a very boring thing, because you humans are creatures who yearn for the mysterious and the unknown.

But what human beings crave is not only mystery and unknown, mystery and unknown are just bait, what you really want is to find out the mystery and the unknown, just like primitive people worship and fear of wind, rain, thunder and lightning, modern people are afraid of ghosts but are curious about ghosts, for intellectuals, the object of detection has become quantum mechanics.

What humans yearn for is the answer behind the mystery, but alas, tsk. ”

Su Lin thought silently, every time Tianzun said such things, he would always remember the "truth" that Tianzun told him at the beginning - ignorance is happiness, and prison is happiness.

"Alright, here, let's go in."

The two of them walked out of the woods and saw the original quarry from afar.

Walking through the deserted quarry and following the route of the tunnel he had walked through, Su Lin returned to the altar with a spiral staircase and twelve huge ashlar murals.

Standing on the edge of the deep pit in the center of the altar, Su Lin looked at the bottomless pit, hesitated for a moment, rushed forward, and went straight down.

Tianzun behind him also followed, jumping down the pit with Su Lin.

Falling, falling.

Fall.

Fall.

There is no light source in this pit, it is pitch black as far as the eye can see, this pit is bottomless, Su Lin can feel the oncoming wind, except for the wind, there is no other feeling.

In order to see things clearly in the darkness without light, Su Lin switched his perspective to the perspective realm, except for the Tianzun who fell with him not far away, there were only solid rock walls in all directions.

Tianzun faced the sky on his back, and fell in a flat position with his hands outstretched, as calmly as lying on the wind.

But Su Lin couldn't be like her, because he had to use the Destroying Blade to dissipate the force at the moment he landed, otherwise he and Tianzun would both fall into a puddle of flesh, so she had to take Tianzun's hand, and in the process of constantly falling, she stared down intently, waiting for the bottom of the pit to appear.

Ten minutes had passed, and he and Tianzun's falling speed had already reached the limit, and the resistance of the wind and his own gravity had reached a delicate balance, but he still didn't see the bottom of the pit.

"According to the speed of the human body in free fall, the maximum speed is probably 150 kilometers per hour to 220 kilometers per hour, and this estimate will fluctuate due to personal reasons. Based on the time we came down, we should have fallen 25,000 kilometers. ”

"What?"

Tianzun said loudly, her voice was blown away in the wind, so she took Su Lin's hand, approached in the air, and shouted in her ear: "I said, we should have fallen 25,000 meters." ”

Twenty-five thousand meters, this is no longer a normal speed, if the Immortal Cultivation Realm is about the same as the earth, then they have now passed through the earth's crust and are falling towards the mantle, the temperature alone can burn them all to ashes, but now, the temperature is normal.

Is this hole really that deep, or is it affected by some spell?

Su Lin adjusted his posture and slowly moved in the air with the power of the wind, approaching the edge of the rock wall. He reached out and touched the rock wall, but he didn't feel any bumps and bumps, it was a very smooth plane!

Su Lin pressed his hand tightly against the rock wall and rubbed it for thousands of meters, but the temperature of his palm did not rise in the slightest, which proved that there was no real friction between his palm and the rock wall, so there was no heat generation.

It's already certain that this isn't a normal pit, it's not just deep!

But soon, Su Lin found that the oncoming wind had become smaller.

What's going on?

Is the fall slowing down?
