Chapter 839: Life's Choices
By now, almost all of Xu Ji's calculations and arrangements have surfaced, and all of Chen Xi's previous doubts and incomprehensions have also been answered.
Why did the war go on so casually, why were the demigods and those true gods controlled so simply, and why Xu Ji was not killed after being captured by the demons. There are also abnormalities and all kinds of coincidences along the way of the fat man. These are all things that Xu Ji has designed, and they are not accidents.
Even Chen Xi and the others left the road and went to Tianqi Mountain instead. Chen Xi thought of the team that was chasing and killing his people at that time, at the beginning, it was a team of flying leopard riders, and their strength was not very strong. Then there was the Iron Tiger Guard and a magician, although it was indeed very dangerous at that time, but the strength of these people must have been carefully selected by the Demon Emperor.
Of course, all of this was arranged by the Demon Emperor, and the Flying Leopard Ride pursued Chen Xi and them in order to force Chen Xi and them to take the road of Apocalypse Mountain. Iron Tiger Guard and that demon master were just to make those big powerhouses of the demon clan think that the demon palace was discovered by Chen Xi and them by accident. Chen Xi thought that even if he hadn't improved his strength because he was tortured by Emperor Moqiong's emotions, his side would have to get through the difficulties at that time for other reasons.
The purpose of all this was to prevent the gods and demons and the entire Moqiong from being killed by the Lord of the Divine Domain.
Is it ridiculous?
Chen Xi suddenly felt that so many thrills and worries along the way were just a game that he had to participate in, absurd and ridiculous. But when the ending involves the life and death of the entire Mo Qiong, all this becomes no longer ridiculous. That's right, no matter how righteous Xu Ji is, it can't avoid the antecedent that he doesn't want to die. However, this antecedent cannot avoid the distorted desires of the Lord of the Divine Domain.
For the rest of the day, Xu Ji was in retreat. The method of opening the Ancient Demon Palace was told by the Demon Emperor to Xu Ji, once it was opened, it was almost impossible for people outside to come in. Of course, the Demon Emperor will definitely tell her subordinates like this, she has no choice.
Chen Xi and Teng'er's days became a little boring, and Xu Ji wanted to make himself look like he had completely disappeared, so he entered another more hidden place in the Demon Palace. He had to hide from the Lord of the Divine Domain, but no one knew how long he could hold out.
Chen Xi told Teng'er all these things, and Teng'er became sad. The fat man and she haven't known each other for a long time, but the fat man does regard her and Chen Xi as best friends, and when he came, during the time when Chen Xi was away, the fat man also protected Teng'er.
"No wonder he can improve my strength. ”
Teng'er thought of the first time she met the fat man, and the fat man gave her a pill, and Fuji'er's strength immediately returned to its peak.
"Yes, who would have thought that the fat man was a doppelganger of Xu Ji, that is, the doppelganger of the future Lord of the Divine Domain, so he would have such a powerful elixir on his body. So the contradictory words he said before also have answers. What he said about Qinglong was not in the same line at all with what happened in the Tianfu Continent, it was because he knew everything about the Divine Domain. ”
Chen Xi sighed, and all that came to mind was the smiling pictures of the fat man. The fat man is a slacker, a scoundrel, with too many flaws, but he is a good friend.
"Are we going to live here from now on?"
Qinglong sat on the side and asked.
Chen Xi nodded: "At least I can't leave within a month, Xu Ji said it is a month, but I think it should be more than that." The Lord of the Divine Domain's physical body has aged, but Xu Ji is not dead, so the Lord of the Divine Domain will try his best to find Xu Ji, either take him away or kill him, otherwise even if the Lord of the Divine Domain gets the heart of the Moqiong Emperor, there is no way to get power from it. The only thing we can do now seems to be to practice as much as possible to improve our strength. ”
Suzaku, who had always been silent, sighed: "But what's the use of cultivation, our fate is not in our own hands at all." ”
The Black Ape King said angrily beside him: "I don't care, my clan is gone, you are my friends, I will be where you are." If I'm destined to die here, I'm at least not alone, and that's fine. ”
Teng'er looked around and said, "Chen Xi, since everyone thinks that cultivation is meaningless, why don't we go here." The Demon Palace is very big, and we were tired last time we came, so we didn't take a good look at it, since this is the last month, why don't you make your life easier? Let's take a good turn here, maybe it's so big that we can't finish it in a month. ”
Chen Xi nodded: "Then don't practice, I'll accompany you." ”
The fat man is gone, but it has become a lot more deserted, and the foul-mouthed guy pops up from everyone's head from time to time. When you see something new, you can't help but wonder what would happen to that obscene fat man if he was there?
Chen Xi and the others walked all the way to the Demon Palace along the place they had walked before, and then found that the huge size of this place was indeed beyond imagination. Whether it is in the Divine Domain or the Demon Domain, the spatial power of ordinary people will be limited. However, in the Demon Palace, it is obvious that a very powerful space power is used. Apocalypse Mountain is indeed very large, but the width of the Demon Palace obviously exceeds the width of Apocalypse Mountain.
In the passage he walked through last time, Chen Xi thought of the phantom. At that time, the fat man was entangled by a phantom, but when he attacked, all the attacks went to Chen Xi's side. Now walking through here again, nothing has happened, and it seems that everything has disappeared with the opening of the sealing array. Even the emotion of the Moqiong Emperor never appeared again.
Chen Xi found that there was indeed a small door in the place where he broke into at that time, and the space was distorted at that time, so he couldn't see this small door.
After entering this small door, Chen Xi saw this familiar secret room, and thought of the fact that he and the fat man almost hurt each other here, and couldn't help but smile.
Maybe it's because the sealing array is opened, and all the other small prohibitions in the Demon Palace have been lifted, so everything looks real. Chen Xi found that there was not only one door on the other side of the secret room, and the fat man and himself ran out of the only door at that time. At that time, there was really only one door in this secret room, but now, there are eight doors on the other side of the wall of the secret room.
Eight doors?
Chen Xi was stunned for a moment, then why did the fat man and himself run through the only gate? If these eight doors were real, then someone must have changed the structure at that time!
Chen Xi was taken aback, could it be that the escape route of the fat man and himself at that time was also planned by someone? At that time, Xu Jiyuan was in Weizhi City, it was impossible to interfere, and it was absolutely impossible for the Demon Emperor to interfere. Then the most plausible explanation is that the fat man changed. If that's the case, why did the fat man make a move on Chen Xi before? The fat man couldn't even see who that phantom was at that time, how could he know everything about the structure of this secret room?
Therefore, someone must have closed the other seven doors at that time, leaving only that one for Chen Xi and the fat man to run out.
Chen Xi expressed his doubts, and the life was a little boring, and everyone was immediately attracted by this matter.
After thinking for a while, Fuji'er said, "Could it be that all the prohibitions were opened at that time, so there was only one door to go through?"
Qinglong shook his head: "These eight choices are obviously not so simple. Eight gates, of course, will not lead to the same place. I thought of what Her Royal Highness said at the beginning, the eight doors of life and death."
Chen Xi said: "What do you mean, these eight doors are eight different choices, there is life, there is death, and there are other things." And the fat man and I were entering the birth gate at that time, and the other doors were closed by some force or someone. ”
Qinglong nodded slightly: "Maybe this person or this kind of power just doesn't want you and the fat man to be killed by the people behind and change the structure of this secret room." So the only reasonable explanation is that there are not only us here, but also an absolute strong man who has been watching us. ”
After these words were spoken, a chill ran down everyone's backs.
Teng'er said: "Could it be the emotion of the Moqiong Emperor?"
Chen Xi shook his head: "It can't be her, she doesn't have any kindness to us." ”
"Would you like to take a walk and try it?"
The Black Ape King walked to the door of one of the doors and stopped, as if there was some irresistible attraction in the door, and involuntarily stepped forward. Chen Xi hurriedly went over and grabbed the Black Ape King, and the Black Ape King looked back at Chen Xi in confusion, as if he didn't understand what happened to him just now.
"It looks like someone let me in. ”
The Black Ape King raised his hand and rubbed his eyes: "When I stood at this door just now, I saw my home, my people, the star that we have lived for a long time. I saw that they were all waving to me, telling me that they were all doing well, and telling me to go in and find them. ”
Qinglong's face was solemn: "Something is wrong." ”
He walked to the doorway that the Black Ape King had chosen before and looked inside, and the next second he actually raised his feet and walked inside: "It turned out to be here."
Chen Xi pulled him again: "What's wrong with you?"
Qinglong was stunned for a moment, and then a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead in an instant: "I saw the Tianfu Continent." I saw Kunlun Mountain, the place where we lived together, and the back of Her Royal Highness. I saw Tianting Lake, I saw the Blood Sea Mi Worm, I saw the Divine Tree, and I saw the Silver Snow Beach."
Chen Xi pulled everyone back a few steps, looked at the door and frowned in thought.
This is the first door, the first one counted from the left. Now that the doors are all here, Chen Xi can't be sure which one he and the fat man entered at that time.
"Since you're so bored, why don't you make a game? ”
At that moment, a voice suddenly appeared, seemingly very old.
"The eight choices you have in front of you are actually the choices that have happened in your life. Everyone will face a variety of choices in their life, eight, in fact, there are not many of them. Haven't you ever wondered what would happen if you made a different decision on something than you had in the beginning? Some people have lost the opportunity and want to do it again. Some people yearn for change and feel that their lives are full of failures. This is just another life for you, and it does not involve life or death. ”
"The biggest possibility is that you are just trapped in it and can't get out, but for you, it may not be a good ending. ”
Chen Xi frowned: "Why should we enter?"
The voice smiled, "Because you have no other choice." ”
Chen Xi turned around violently and found that the door had disappeared when he entered.
