Heaven and earth are turbulent, and in the deep underground, thunder echoes one after another.

In the darkness, the huge silhouette spread out countless pairs of arms, as if grasping the gears of the world, pulling all things to move under their own will—

When this power that is enough to dominate the operation of Chang'an is displayed here, it sets off a terrifying storm and raging.

In this way, peel off the blocking of the transmission layer, little by little, and go deep into the core of Chang'an!

It's just a stone's throw away.

During the long wait, Lu Daoxuan heard the sound of shattering.

From behind him, there was a sound from outside the sealed gates, and it became clear, until a staggered crack emerged from the wall, and with a loud crash, a faint light lit up from beyond the crack.

He withdrew his gaze from the abyss and looked behind him, looking down indifferently.

"Li Bai?"

The old mechanic raised his pupils slightly and sneered, "You're really ...... The ghost is not gone. ”

"The Ghost Lingers?"

In the dancing dust, Li Bai raised his head and looked at his enemy with contempt, "Shouldn't you keep such a description for yourself?" ”

As he spoke, he shook his hand and threw a broken blade at Lu Daoxuan's feet.

"Ji Xianke is dead, for you."

Li Bai said coldly: "Not only him and Li Xiang, but also more people died because of you, Lu Daoxuan, no, Wu Yougong - they shouldn't have died, they could have lived, but because of you, they all fell into hell!" ”

Lu Daoxuan didn't speak, just lowered his head and looked down at the broken sword in the dust.

The spine of the sword scattered all over the rift reflected his face, making the old face seem to be cut by the rift, and it was already unrecognizable.

It was still calm, and there was no wavering.

"Death is inevitable, sooner or later."

Lu Daoxuan said: "It is better for people to die by inherently and to die with consciousness than to live in ignorance - in comparison, it is sad enough to pin hope and future in this disgusting city and the unknown!" At best, he is nothing more than a slave to this city! ”

"They are not slaves to anyone, and they are not born to be instruments of anyone."

Li Bai refuted coldly: "Isn't it you who use them as tools and puppets!" ”

"In this world, if you want to achieve something truly beautiful, it must come with sacrifice.

They have entrusted their lives to me, and I am going to make their deaths meaningful—aren't you the ones who are really stopping this! ”

Lu Daoxuan asked solemnly: "Do you really understand what you are doing, Li Bai?"

They think they are chivalrous and proud, but they are no different from executioners who do what the people want!

If you are truly righteous, then you should be on my side, and if you really have mercy on the afflicted, you should be my friend!

If you want to make this world a better place, you shouldn't draw your sword on me! You should stand with me and stand up against the culprits who are responsible for all this for their own power and ambition!

You are the only one who can understand me! ”

He held out his hand and invited one last time: "Imagine! Imagine that future! There are no more aristocratic teachers, no more incompetent officials, no more miserable fellows, and no more shitty people riding on our heads!

Everyone is able to survive for themselves and their loved ones, and everyone has their own home! Everyone can proudly hold their heads up and become the master of Chang'an!

Come to me, Li Bai, we can create a better world. A future without the oppression and control of aristocratic masters, without dark power struggles, and without despair and suffering......"

"One, a future that you control, isn't it?"

Li Bai asked coldly: "A future that seems to be free, but it is under your rule, and everyone has become a puppet?" ”

He stared indifferently at his outstretched hand, and then, drawing his sword, aimed it at his face.

Give your final reply in the most straightforward way possible.

"You're lying, Lu Daoxuan."

Li Bai stepped forward and turned to his enemy, "I hate people who lie, because that kind of life is not real, and those lies about love are especially hypocritical!" You don't love the world anymore, all that's left is hatred......

Those things built on tears, no matter how noble their afflictions and goals, are nothing but self-absorption! ”

He stared at the old face, and through the dark pupils of his eyes, he could see the scarlet hidden in the darkness, like a molten fire in hell, surging in pain, choosing people to eat!

"Lu Daoxuan, since I don't know how long ago, you are no different from the things you hate."

He shook his head sadly:

"—All along, you've only wanted to create hell!"

Boom bang.

In the dark abyss, something behemoth suddenly rose, and its hideous torso unfolded, overwhelming, and smashed towards Li Bai!

The earth cracked.

In an instant, it fell apart.

With the shattering of the dome, countless boulders collapsed, and after the crack, a faint ray of sunlight fell, finally illuminating the huge and terrifying silhouette behind Lu Daoxuan.

It's like a monster made in the deepest parts of hell.

In the deep abyss, there are solemn faces like gods and Buddhas slowly rising.

The huge face was inlaid with countless scarlet cores, releasing a vicious glow like a poisonous spider.

Thousands of arms stretched out on top of a huge body like a mountain, which should have been a special and solemn gesture, but now, like a resentful hand stretched out from behind the gates of hell, wants to pull everything and fall into hell!

That is the creation that Lu Daoxuan is truly proud of, the result of fourteen years of pain and despair, a monster resurrected from hell with thousands of dead organ cores as the axis!

- The King of the Thousand Hands!

At this moment, Lu Daoxuan stepped on the palm of King Ming's outstretched hand, held the face of the monster, and looked down - above the solemn face, the killing intent was hideous.

He clenched his fists.

In an instant, countless long arms fell from the roar of King Ming.

It's easy to tear everything in front of you and destroy it!

Compared to the huge puppet, all mortals were like dust, and even the huge stadium above their heads was too narrow to accommodate this terrifying body.

After breaking through the dogmas of countless organ teachers, Lu Daoxuan had already climbed to the peak of taboos.

Even if there is no one, he can completely destroy everything in front of him!

"If you are stubborn, then die!"

On King Ming's chest, between the closed ten fingers, Lu Daoxuan's eyes were crazy: "Don't worry, Li Bai, after you die, a better world will be born!" ”

In response to him, the sword qi that rose into the sky again in the dust.

The long river was surging, sweeping mightily, moving forward with ease from the ravages of thousands of pairs of giant hands, leaving deep slash marks on the body of the Thousand-Handed Ming King.

In an instant, a huge steel palm fell off his wrist and fell to the ground.

"A better world?"

Li Bai shook his head pityingly: "So, you didn't hear it, right?" ”

"—the sorrow of this city."

From the moment Lu Daoxuan's plan began, it echoed in the depths of the earth—like the singing of whales in the deep sea, lonely and sad, futile calls and wails.

But no one heard of it.

"It's calling me, Lu Daoxuan, it's asking me for help."

Li Bai clenched his long sword and told him word by word: "This world is standing behind me!" ”

In his hands, the Qinglian Sword Qi bloomed again, rushing, illuminating the darkness.

This time, with the distant singing, it once again transformed into a new brilliance, and after exhausting all the splendor and beauty of the world, it contained all kinds of beauty and turned into a dazzling glow.

What can be compared to this is the roar of the huge thousand-armed king.

Around it, countless scarlet nuclei like pupils were rapidly extinguishing and cracking, losing support and strength from afar.

Stuck in a sluggish ......

"What's going on!"

Lu Daoxuan looked back in amazement and looked farther away.

"It's too late, Lu Daoxuan."

Li Bai raised his head and smiled proudly: "I'm not the only one standing up in this city!" ”

At this moment, in Chang'an City, I don't know how many people are rushing around.

From the Yanggong to Huaiyuanfang, Honglu Temple, Dali Temple, Yu Hengsi, and even countless organ divisions have all been mobilized.

Jin Wuwei's iron cart violently smashed the barriers in front of it under the imperial order, and then one by one the trap beasts poured in, activated the tools, and began to hastily carry out emergency maintenance.

As all the living corpses that Lu Daoxuan had placed in the ground were dismantled, the scarlet in the cores of those Fang City gradually faded and regained their brilliance again.

"Hurry, hurry!"

Yuan Fang held a crumpled blueprint in his hand and urged the secret guards: "There are still four more places, and they must be maintained within an hour!"

What about Jin Wuwei? Jin Wuwei's car is blocking the road, get out of the way! It's too late! ”

Soon, the engineering machine car weighing 10,000 catties was lifted casually, and then put it on the other side, and the road was wide open.

"You guys should be sharp, too!"

He waved his hand and ordered his juniors: "Don't let down the hard work of others, you know? ”

He was answered with a thunderous cry.

Li Bai is not alone.

At this moment, everyone stretched out their hands and grabbed their most beloved home, not allowing it to be dragged down the abyss!

"See?"

Li Bai shook his head, "The reason why a conspiracy is a conspiracy is because once it is exposed to the sun, it is doomed to failure!" ”

In the dead silence, Lu Daoxuan raised his head, and finally saw countless pages flying in the wind behind the shattered dome.

A broken page fell and came to Lu Daoxuan's feet.

Sixteen cores of Fang City that may be usurped, the transformation mechanism hidden under the transmission layer, and even the deep veins that envelop the entire area of Chang'an...... and even Lu Daoxuan's plan to manipulate Chang'an.

After rows of dense calculation values, all the key points have been marked out on the crude drawings that encompass the entire Chang'an.

In just two days, fourteen years of preparation have been reversed!

Even, it was scattered in the air, and the spread of Chang'an fell into everyone's hands......

"That shit-"

Lu Daoxuan crumpled the shredded paper into shreds, and it was difficult to hide his anger and hideousness.

"Just tie your hands and arrest it, you have no prince."

Li Bai shook his head pityingly: "Your plan has completely failed - if you confess your sins and surrender to the law at this moment, you may not be able to open the net......"

"Dreaming !!"

Lu Daoxuan roared, the Thousand-Armed Ming King roared angrily, and those dimmed eyes regained a blood-colored light.

Beneath the scattered mottled white hair, the old mechanic had completely fallen into madness.

Regardless of the consequences, the final measures were initiated:

"If you refuse this share of the future and tomorrow, then you will go to hell together!"

At that moment, King Ming's countless arms spread out, facing in all directions, once again forcibly connecting those out-of-control mechanisms, and then, activating the final mechanism law.

Overload Command!

Chang'an was shaken, and terrifying turmoil sprouted from the deepest part of the earth.

With Liufang City as the hub, the out-of-control instructions spread outward, causing a catastrophe that fell more than 100 times that year...... After completely giving up control of this city, Lu Daoxuan laughed hoarsely and chose to push it all to extinction!

Li Bai roared angrily, flew up, and slashed his sword blade at the Thousand-Handed Ming King in front of him.

But the continuous arm blocking, countless palms stubbornly clamped the vast Sky Sword, under the heavy shadows, Lu Daoxuan's eyes were bloodshot, and he smiled hoarsely.

"It's useless, Li Bai, it's too late!"

He spread out his hands, urging the law of perdition to convey it into the distance, causing the city to collapse in an endless core overload.

"Everything will fall into ruin!"

“…… No, it's still too late. ”

Someone muttered softly.

Rumble!

At that moment, from behind Li Bai, in the collapsed crack, a steel fist was raised, and sparks flashed on the stump, slowly aiming at the body of the Thousand-Handed Ming King.

Exhaust the last of your strength.

The furnace hidden in the arm was filled with the last fuel, and the remnants of the mana crystal unleashed the last of its power, and just like that, the fire burst out.

The Iron Hand shot out like a bird.

Turned into a cannonball, dragging chains hundreds of meters long, piercing into the heart of the Thousand-Handed Ming King.

At the other end of the chain, the crumbling giant of the mechanism emerged from the darkness, its tattered face raised, and the only remaining eyes still burned with a stubborn glow.

And in the chest, empty!

In the deeper depths of the darkness, behind countless broken cables, a line of blood slowly extended...... Turned into a scarlet link that connects the weary mechanic with the hero he created.

Among the wreckage, Xun Qing groaned.

Trembling fingers raised.

At that moment, the overload command came to an abrupt end!

That is the person who knows Lu Daoxuan's mechanism technique in the world, the successor who was personally cultivated by him, and the same mechanic who has inherited all his skills!

At the moment when the iron fist was connected, the interference of the same origin caused Lu Daoxuan's organ law to stagnate and collapse. With blood as the line, the weak organ division and his own division commander began the final wrestling!

"Do you dare to disobey me, Xun Qing!"

Lu Daoxuan roared hoarsely, clenched his fists, and wanted to regain control of himself, but the suppression from Li Bai made him unable to draw all his mental strength at all.

can only be a little bit, and was pulled tightly by Xun Qing.

"It's time to finish, Dao Xuangong."

Xun Qing whispered, "Whether it's love or hate, it's been too long......"

Under the angry attack of the Thousand-Handed Ming King, the giant with thousands of holes stepped forward and moved his body little by little. There was no attack, no rage.

Just open your arms, use your last strength, and embrace the monster in front of you.

It's like a child snuggling up in his father's arms.

In the wreckage, Xun Qing closed his eyes, tears sliding from the corners of his eyes.

"Let's go home."

At that moment, all the laws of the organs connected to the outside world were cut off, overloaded with instructions, and forcibly terminated-

"Xun Qing !!"

Lu Daoxuan roared wildly, desperately tearing apart the giant that stood in his way, trying to restart everything.

But then, he heard a roar that never stopped.

Those huge arms that had been torn off fell from the sky, and the pale blue sword qi torrented into the sky!

In the hands of Li Bai.

"It's time to wake up from the dream, Wu Yougong."

He raised his eyes and solemnly declared, "With this sword, I will cut you off with your hell!" ”

Endless sword qi burst out, and in an instant, engulfed the emaciated figure, no, he once again merged into the mighty rush.

Rising towards the sky.

It was as if the shackles between heaven and earth had been torn apart, and everything was resounding.

At this moment, the glow from the soul shone above the sky, like countless stars in the sky, turning into a vast star.

The torrent of stars ends here.

Turning into a sword blade that seemed to encompass everything, it slashed towards the Thousand-Armed Ming King.

Lu Daoxuan raised his head sluggishly, staring at the sword qi rushing towards his face, and his pupils were illuminated by the light.

It's like forgetting that you're already in hell. The old mechanic subconsciously stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the color like the heavenly dome.

"Such a light ......"

He muttered distractedly.

At that moment, a lofty glow engulfed everything.

When the sword light flashed away, the bright light of Xiao Han dissipated without a trace.

Only the roar of collapse continued.

The Thousand-Armed Ming King shattered inch by inch, was cut in two pieces from the center, and without the strength to maintain his posture, he quickly dissociated and fell towards the dark abyss below.

Return to eternal silence.

In mid-air, Li Bai's figure reappeared, falling into the darkness like a leaf flipped in a hurricane.

He reached out, trying to grab the bulge beside him.

But it didn't miss a fraction of a second.

Can't catch it.

"Ah, I don't have the strength."

Li Bai sighed lightly, but couldn't help but laugh softly.

In the fall.

The defeated strong enemy won the victory and saved Chang'an, but finally fell to his death because he had no strength...... Such a witty death may also be recorded in the biographies of future generations in the future?

In the howling wind, he closed his eyes.

But in the wind, it was as if I heard a distant call, someone was calling his name, getting closer and closer...... But when he raised his eyes, he saw the figure on the cliff rushing towards him.

Pulling the rope, he jumped down desperately.

Grabbed him by the collar.

Clench!

- Di Renjie!

Seeing that Di Renjie grabbed Li Bai, Yuan Fang above also breathed a sigh of relief, pulled the rope hard, his face turned red, and turned his head to the snickering secret guard next to him: "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you come over and help!" Go back and deduct all your wages! Deduction of wages! ”

Soon, under the pull of the secret guards, Di Renjie and Li Bai slowly rose from the abyss.

The tired Li Bai was thrown to the ground, and then, Di Renjie reached out and took off the shackles from his waist, with a crisp click.

"Fugitive Li Bai, arrest and bring to justice!"

Li Bai was stunned, looking at Di Renjie's cold appearance and his shackled hands, he couldn't believe it: "Are you still here?" ”

"Remember what I said?"

Di Renjie shook his head pityingly, "Rules, they are rules-before the end of the six-part trial, you are still a fugitive from Dali Temple, and you are still under my control." ”

"I just saved Chang'an!"

Di Renjie suddenly smiled heartily and said with a rare smile: "This hero who saved Chang'an, before leaving, cried and shouted for people to come to the rescue...... If you hadn't shouted too loudly, and the sound had spread for ten miles, I wouldn't have been able to come over in time. ”

Li Bai pondered for a moment, and finally realized that something was wrong: "Why do I feel like you are watching the excitement from beginning to end?" ”

"Look at the excitement...... It's really a bunch of nonsense, the official is entangled in everything, is there still that kind of leisure? Di Renjie said lightly. Only he knows that in today's battlefield, how many good players from Dali Temple resisted Lu Daoxuan's countless subordinates while Li Bai fought a decisive battle.

After a short rest, Li Bai finally regained a little strength, refused Yuan Fang's help, and stood up with his long sword.

When he looked back at the devastated ruins behind him, he couldn't help but sigh.

Standing on the edge of the rift, he looked down at the steep abyss below.

Darkness buries everything, hatred, despair and pain, and everything will be quiet.

"In the end, they couldn't really unravel their resentment." Li Bai muttered softly.

"No matter how precise the law and how timely the chivalry, sometimes it is impossible to restore what has been lost."

Di Renjie sighed: "Family, future, hope, and happiness...... Some things, once destroyed, can never be recovered. Even if revenge is meaningless, there is no way out without revenge. Perhaps, because of this, Lu Daoxuan fell into madness......"

"No, if you want me to say, it's the opposite."

In silence, Li Bai slowly shook his head: "Everything we do is to prevent more such things from happening again. In order that more people do not fall into the hell of hatred and despair.

There will be a tomorrow in this world. ”

Human beings survive in the storms of this earthly world, chasing hope and future in the distance.

It is precisely because we know the horror of pain and resentment that we hope for law and chivalry, and hope that one day we will be able to cross the whirlpool of ugliness and create a truly beautiful world......

Whether it is Li Bai, Di Renjie, or Xun Qing, or even anyone who is not willing to despair and pain, every step forward will lay a step on this long road.

Even if there is no end to this road, even if it is exhaustive in a lifetime, this desire to chase the light will never end.

Di Renjie looked back at him, for a long time, and asked seriously: "Do you think that kind of world without hatred will really come?" ”

Li Bai looked at the abyss under his feet.

suddenly recalled that in the last moment, Lu Daoxuan's eyes were so peaceful. It's like finally escaping from the hell that has imprisoned you for the rest of your life.

Relieved smiles, arms open, embracing death at hand.

In the end, he finally let go of his hatred.

calmly ushered in his own ending.

Not only him, but also Ji Xianke, Li Xiang, and many more...... It is precisely because I know the pain of darkness that I yearn for the light so much.

Looking forward to a hopeful tomorrow.

"Absolutely."

Li Bai bowed his head and replied solemnly: "One day, such a world will definitely come!" ”

Di Renjie didn't speak again.

Just smiling.

Look up at the sky beyond the rift.

In the pale blue sky, white clouds were rolling, and a refreshing wind was blowing in the distance.

The bustling streets, the dilapidated ruins, the flower boats, the cars, and even every smiling face, everything is bathed in the gentle sunshine.

The haze is gone.
