Chen Liu, who was in the center of the lightning channeling talisman, in the midst of the surging of thunder and lightning, the physical body that had already reached the limit instantly disintegrated inch by inch, the skin and flesh were open, and the white bones were hideous.

However, at the same time, the Arhat essence blood filled with his meridians and acupoints also showed its might, and it faced off against the fierce thunder and lightning, and the two armies faced each other.

Although Chen Liu's consciousness had not woken up, some kind of pain that hit him directly inside made his body involuntarily tremble violently.

Yet even in the midst of this pain, his soon-to-be-dissipated spirituality remained unturned.

Under the thunder, if he can't return his spirit in time, then no matter what secret method to protect himself, it will not work.

Waiting for Chen Liu's ending, he can only die.

"From now on, it can only depend on the donor's own will to survive."

The mysterious Daoist from the Heavenly Master's Mansion had already stepped aside with Chen Wanqiu and Xuankong Venerable.

They couldn't get into the lightning strike to help Chen Liu in the slightest, because the dignity of the thunder did not allow anyone to provoke.

If one person enters, the power of this thunder tribulation will be three points stronger. Not only will it not help, but it may anger the thunderbolt and pose a greater threat.

"You're going to have to be good. You can't fail to keep your promise! ”

Looking at Chen Liu, who was struck by lightning, Chen Wanqiu didn't feel good in her heart.

However, she couldn't help him, and could only hope that he would remember the promise he had made to himself and others close to him and return to this world.

……

At this moment, Chen Liu's consciousness had fallen into the darkness of chaos.

He could only vaguely feel his presence, but he couldn't perceive anything else.

I just don't know why, there are bursts of tingling and subtle pain in his hazy feeling.

"This is the afterlife? It's not the same as the last time I died. I thought I would be able to be reincarnated again, but it seems that it is really the end. ”

Even if he has reached this point, Chen Liu does not have too much fear.

It's just that if he is the only one here, it will be really lonely, and it will be extreme fear.

Fortunately, the heavens were not in the mood to keep this little bit of his spirituality and engage in some kind of silent experiments.

After a while, a burst of white light appeared in Chen Liu's feelings.

He slowly approached the point of light, and suddenly saw a tiny silver dragon of thunder and lightning soaring up and down.

"When this talisman is used up, can there be any spiritual residue?"

This silver dragon is no different from the thunder dragon that was transformed by the five thunder talismans on the head.

It's just that the moment Chen Liu wanted to get close to him, the thunder dragon also rushed straight towards him in an instant, and then directly drilled into his eyebrows.

"Isn't it, and you're going to die again after you die?"

Chen Liu felt that his already weak perception was instantly reduced into a cliff jump, and in the end, he couldn't even see the burst of white light, and the numbing pain seemed to disappear.

When he felt that his spiritual sense was close to exhaustion, he suddenly felt something in his arms exuding warmth.

But when he tried to grab it, the warmth disappeared in an instant.

At this time, he forcibly opened his eyes and saw the long-lost ...... Ring.

"The ghost is not gone, you, I'm dead and still haunting me."

The verdant ring didn't pay attention to Chen Liu's self-talk, but rushed to the node of the white light with its own care.

In an instant, a cold aura suddenly enveloped the entire chaotic darkness.

When I opened my eyes, everything in front of me was turned upside down.

Chen Liu could actually see a huge portal hanging upside down in the sky, huge red doorposts on both sides towering, and the couplets inscribed in gold lacquer were blocked by bursts of fog, so he couldn't see clearly. It's just that the three big characters written vigorously on the portal are quite carefully.

"I was still fantasizing about something, and I was really dead. The ghost gate has arrived. ”

Chen Liu could even see ghosts lining up one by one, passing through the little ghosts in front of the portal to inspect the road, and then entering the ghost gate.

As far as the eye can see, between the hills one after another, there are countless flowers swaying in the wind.

Merely......

"Why are they all hanging upside down like this, and they look like their necks hurt."

Chen Liu and those ghosts didn't seem to be in the same dimension, they walked on it, and Chen Liu could only watch from below.

"Am I a lonely ghost? No, I didn't die in vain. Quite a heroic death! I don't want to say how much merit I give, but at least let me be reincarnated. ”

Chen Liu's saliva was not finished, and above the ghost gate, the ring was once again like a meteor.

The scene of the whole space immediately changed again.

At this moment, there is no longer a ghost gate, there is no cold breath, and there is no flow of ghosts, and the flowers on the other side of the thousands of miles have also dissipated in an instant.

In the new world, there is only one pavilion that reaches through the sky and the earth in front of you.

This is not so much a pavilion as a huge country that stretches for thousands of miles.

I can't see how high it is, but it goes straight to the sky; I can't see how deep it is, and it goes straight to the Yellow Spring of Hell.

Outside the pavilion, there are mountains and flowing waters, rare and exotic beasts; In the pavilion, there are also green mountains and green waters, and cranes take off.

Chen Liu suddenly felt that his spirit was suddenly fluttering, and he rose in the wind and swayed up.

At this moment, he saw countless people living in the pavilion.

They are dressed like the ancients, self-denial, tea talks, and very happy conversations, and there is a fairy spirit lingering on their bodies.

As for the daily life of some fairies, they are even more free and leisurely, but some exciting things are deliberately accelerated, which makes Chen Liu unhappy for a while.

When he fell down on the first floor of the pavilion and no longer took off, he noticed an old man sitting cross-legged on the ground, gray hair, but in good spirits.

"This old gentleman, are you?"

The old man smiled dumbly, and did not answer Chen Liu's question, but pointed to the futon opposite him and motioned for him to sit down.

Chen Liu didn't think much about it, just like the old man, sitting cross-legged on the futon.

When the old man sat down, he didn't speak, just waited.

Chen Liu saw that the master's family did not serve tea, second, there were no pastries, and third, there were no girls...... didn't have much to stare at the old man, and asked bluntly:

"What kind of place is this, sir?"

"Your heart."

“……”

Chen Liu didn't say "return my singing", after all, the other party is an old man, so it's not too offensive.

Leaving this question aside, Chen Liu asked another crucial question.

"Am I dead? Ascended to the heavenly realm after death? ”

"Are you sure this is after death, and that place is before death?"

"I really can't be sure. Zhuang Zhou Mengdie, I don't know if the current me is the real me. I don't know where I'm from, but I want to know where I'm going from here. ”

The old man was no longer dumb at this moment, and replied to him:

"Actually, you're dead, and you almost can't get here. It's really no different from what you call the heavenly realm. However, where you want to go is naturally up to you. Stay here without restraint, you can get a cave and practice on your own. I can guarantee that there will be no interference here in doing whatever you want. ”

Of course, the bad taste in Chen Liu's heart can't be told to outsiders, although the environment here is quite comfortable, and even his ideal life, he still asked:

"Can I go back?"

"Yes."

After getting a positive answer, Chen Liu was a little excited, but after a moment he was silent, and after thinking for a while, he asked:

"How do I get back?"

"When you wake up, you can go back."

The old man's answer made Chen Liu wonder if the "heart" he said before was not a whole job?

Waking up from a dream, is it an illusory dream? Or is it the desire of the heart?

Seeing Chen Liu's expression, the old man knew what he was thinking.

Without waiting for him to ask a question, the old man took the initiative to say:

"It's in the heart and not in the heart. If you want to stay, this will be a reality. ”

Chen Liu didn't know why, he didn't have the slightest doubt about what the old man said.

At this time, the other party also stood up and turned to leave.

Just a few words before leaving:

"You have to drink the tea and make it yourself, and so do the pastries. As for the rest, you can also find it yourself, anyway...... Scold...... Whatever you want. ”

Chen Liu suddenly wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into, and it was really embarrassing to be seen through his mind so simply.

At this moment, on the horizon, the ring fell again like a meteor.

But this time, the surrounding environment has not changed, and he is still in this wonderful country.

The ring did not fly back to Chen Liu's body, but hovered beside him, as if waiting for Chen Liu's choice.

The old man left, but he was not so anxious.

With some intuition, he got the tea and the teapot, but he didn't want to make it. Then I got some pastries and tasted a few bites, which were sweet and soft and glutinous, and tasted quite good.

As for the girl, he was still not so polite.

He stood on the edge of the huge pavilion and looked out over the world.

From the previous life to this life, in fact, what he asked for was such a life.

There is no pressure of life, no expectations of others, no worldly thousands of difficult things, no need to work desperately, no need to deal with complex social ......

He believed that this place would give him everything he wanted, and he also believed that the old man who had just left would not lie to him.

So, leaning against the railing, he said to the dangling ring:

"Why don't you just stay here? Anyway, with Bai Jiu here, Jiang Yuan and his aunt's family should have a good life...... Jiang Yuan's ideal of studying should be solved by relying on that poem...... Venerable Xuankong should also help the White Lotus Bodhisattva return to Vulture Mountain safely...... If the batter and Jingzhao Mansion are gone, I will also turn around, and it is no different for Brother Yuan Ping to find a new younger brother to be beaten...... The few poems left behind were copied anyway......"

The ring shone with a verdant glow, and it did not interfere with Chen Liu's decision, but just waited for his decision.

"Then here it is!"

Chen Liu turned around, returned to the futon, and sat down.

He prepared some charcoal for the tea leaves and teapots, ready to cook them slowly.

As for everything that came out of it, it doesn't hurt to let it go.

Anyway, there is no more self in this world, and there is no less self.

"You said yes, right?"
