Chapter Ninety-Two: Finally Faced Matters
Chen Xi stretched out his hands and took the little girl down from the statue and held it in his arms: "It's cold because these stones have no temperature, and they can't make you feel warm." The stone is cold and hard, do you feel better now?"
The little girl rubbed her face in Chen Xi's arms, and a little saliva rubbed on her clothes. She seemed surprised that Chen Xi's arms were warm, a feeling she had never experienced. Maybe she remembered that there were people who held herself like this a long, long time ago, but she was very vague.
She felt the temperature on Chen Xi's body and felt that she liked this feeling very much. This is completely different from the feeling of shrinking in the arms of the white jade statue, the feeling that I have fantasized about many times but is extremely strange, and I finally really feel it.
"Big brother...... Can you let me lean on a little longer?"
She whispered in Chen Xi's arms: "This kind of warmth is similar to that brought to me by the Nine-colored Stone, but the Nine-colored Stone always warms my body with light when I fall asleep." I felt confused, and I wanted to touch them, but I was worried that I might accidentally break them...... Big brother, I won't move around, so I won't break you. ”
Chen Xi's nose was a little sour, don't look over it and don't dare to look at the little girl's eyes: "Don't worry, the big brother won't be damaged by you." ”
"You're going to take her away?"
The old man couldn't help but ask.
Chen Xi nodded and replied seriously: "Yes!"
The old man said with some eagerness: "But once Shen Teng leaves the Fortune Transformation Tower, then it is very likely that those things in the Endless Abyss will come out." You don't know how powerful those things are, and you don't know how they appeared, and this is a disaster for the Tianfu Continent. ”
"Li Lanfeng!"
Chen Xi suddenly shouted: "What you said may be right, but have you asked her if she is willing?!"
At this shout, the old man's expression obviously changed.
He subconsciously took a few steps back, as if trying to escape something. After a long while, the old man looked at Chen Xi with some fear: "I'm not Li Lanfeng...... I was just...... I'm just a shadow of what he left behind in those years when he was in the Inner Sect. Or maybe it's just that he is too nostalgic for the Mantian Sect, so he gathers a remnant soul that does not disperse. I don't know what I am, I have some memories of him, but I'm too broken. If it weren't for you to bring it up, I wouldn't have dared to face this name. ”
Chen Xi held the little girl and shook slightly, and the little girl fell asleep in his arms.
"How much more do you still have to tell me?"
Chen Xi asked.
The old man hesitated for a while, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh: "You said that I am Li Lanfeng, and I can't refute anything." But I'm not exactly him, so it's not that I don't want to sue you, but I don't know much about myself. As time passed, I became weaker and weaker. ”
He glanced at the white jade statues all over the room, and then looked at the sleeping little girl: "Maybe it was really Li Lan who sealed it wrong...... He just wanted to protect the people of the Tianfu Continent, just to avoid that disaster. But he knew that his strength was far from enough to suppress the Endless Abyss, so he had no choice but to go to Kunlun. ”
Chen Xi asked, "Why didn't he make this matter public? He should be the only one who wants to keep the Tianfu Continent." ”
"You don't understand!"
The old man said with some excitement: "You don't know how those things in the Endless Abyss came to be, once this matter is made public, then the power of those things in the Endless Abyss will be infinitely increased!"
"I don't understand, then you can sue me!"
"I ......"
The old man lowered his hand dejectedly, he glanced at Chen Xi, and then slowly walked to the side and sat down, looking as if he had lost all his strength: "You can sue you for this matter, but you have to promise me that you can't leak it out again." Once the secret of the Endless Abyss is known by everyone, especially by ordinary people, then the disaster will come immediately. By that time, the vast majority of people in this world will die. ”
"What the hell is going on?"
Chen Xi asked: "You said before that Li Lanfeng didn't find the answer, it seems that you lied to me?"
The old man nodded: "Yes...... I lied to you. Li Lanfeng actually found the answer before he died, and it was because this answer was too terrifying that he couldn't say it. ”
He was silent for a while, and then said in an extremely heavy tone: "I am about to disappear, after leaving here, I will do my best to protect the Mantian Sect, help you rescue your father, and let him open the real Protector Array of the Mantian Sect." The power of that great array came from the Kunlun Divine Wood...... Li Lanfeng cut off the Divine Tree back then, and used most of it to make the Zuò Protector Sect Great Array, in fact, just in case. In case Shen Teng's strength is not enough to suppress the Endless Abyss, then the Protector Sect Great Array is the second layer of barrier. ”
"Your Aoki sword is the key to unlocking the Great Array. ”
......
......
Chen Xi listened to the old man quietly, and every word of the old man hit his heart. Since he was a child, Chen Xi has never been so shocked. What the old man said was beyond his imagination, it was a kind of horror that he could not have imagined anyway. And this kind of horror is really as the old man said, once it spreads, it will turn into a disaster.
"In people's hearts, there is a demon beast living in it. ”
The old man's tone was extremely sad, and his expression was lonely and lonely: "Li Lanfeng accidentally discovered the Endless Abyss, and he didn't know what it was at first. It wasn't until he saw the terrible things in the Endless Abyss that he realized that disaster might be coming soon. ”
He began to look for a way to stop this disaster, and later he heard that there were several treasures left by the gods on Mount Kunlun. One is a sacred tree, and the other is a nine-colored stone. And with these two things, it is possible to defuse that disaster. Shen Teng is a servant of God, this is just a legend. Shen Teng is so powerful that it is invincible, and the reason why Shen Teng can't do without the Nine Color Stone is ...... Because of the departure of the gods, Shen Teng could not be blessed by the divine radiance, so he could only rely on the nine-colored stone to maintain it. ”
After Li Lanfeng found out about this, he went to Kunlun Mountain. There, he saw the Divine Tree and the Nine-Colored Stone. And in order to obtain these two things, you must defeat the divine beast that guards the sacred tree...... Phoenix. ”
The old man breathed a sigh of relief, and that period of the past didn't seem to calm him down: "After a few days and nights of fierce battles, he finally defeated the phoenix, and then cut off the divine tree, dug up the nine-colored stone and brought it back to Qingliang Mountain. ”
Chen Xi's heart moved, and he said that the phoenix was really killed by Li Lanfeng. It's just that such a powerful divine beast, although the body is broken, the divine soul is still there. It's just that it's too difficult to recover, so Phoenix will continue to choose the right person as the Yuan Body and cultivate its own Yuan Shen. When I arrived at Ding Mei, I didn't know how many phoenix meta bodies it was.
"Since Shen Teng can't do without the Nine Color Stone, why didn't she stop Li Lanfeng at that time?"
Li Lanfeng observed for a long time and found that every once in a while, Shenteng would fall into a deep sleep. It may be because he has become a lot weaker than God has left God. He made sure that Shen Teng was asleep, and then returned with the Nine Colored Stones, and spent half of his repair to build the Transformation Tower and the Nine Shadows Dungeon. ”
Chen Xi said: "After Shen Teng woke up, he found that the nine-colored stone was gone, so he immediately found it. But I don't understand, why didn't she return to Kunlun Mountain with the Nine Colored Stones?"
The old man sighed: "Actually, Shenteng was already very weak back then, and she couldn't remember too many things. Li Lanfeng was also worried that the nine-colored stone would be brought back by Shen Teng at that time, so he used the divine wood to build a large array of protectors. He had planned to use the power of the Divine Tree to imprison the Fortune Transformation Tower, but once the Divine Tree came in, he would not be able to get out. However, he still underestimated Shen Teng after all, and the combined strength of the Fortune Transformation Tower and the Divine Tree was far from enough to restrain Shen Teng. ”
However, he later found that Shen Teng was already a little confused. At that time, Shen Teng changed into a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, who seemed to be very curious about people. It seems that she rarely sees people, and even has a little fear of people. Li Lanfeng lied to her, saying that this was the new home that God had built for her, and that if she left here or told others this secret, God would abandon her......"
The old man glanced at the little girl apologetically: "She is so innocent, she believes Li Lanfeng's words like this." She didn't know that Li Lanfeng was going to use her power to suppress the Endless Abyss. ”
Chen Xi couldn't help but ask, "What is the thing in the Endless Abyss?"
The old man replied, "As I said earlier, there are demon beasts living in people's hearts. You may not have understood this sentence...... Everyone has two of themselves. Whether it is a practitioner or an ordinary person, they all have good thoughts and evil thoughts. Everyone has a pure good self in their hearts, and a pure evil self, and the pure evil self is the demon beast. ”
"The kinder a person is, the more terrible the pure evil side of his heart is hidden. The Endless Abyss is the place where these evil thoughts are collected. The evils of the human heart were swallowed up by the endless abyss, and then there were countless powerful things. In other words...... The things in the endless abyss correspond to everyone in the world. ”
Chen Xi asked, "Why can't everyone know about this?"
The old man said: "Originally, Li Lanfeng also wanted to ask other great cultivators to help, but later he found out that those great cultivators also had their own corresponding beasts in the endless abyss. And the corresponding beast of the Great Cultivator is even more powerful. The most terrifying thing is that those counterpart beasts can increase their strength by absorbing people's fears. Once the news spreads, it will undoubtedly be a huge panic of unprecedented proportions. And when panic breaks out, the things in the endless abyss will become incomparably powerful, and eventually come out to bring disaster to the world. ”
Chen Xi was shocked: "Isn't that incomprehensible?"
The old man nodded: "Li Lanfeng discovered this secret, but in the end he didn't find a way to resolve it. I only know so much, I am just a shadow in his remnants of the zài inner sect. ”
Chen Xi muttered to himself: "The evil thoughts in a person's heart will cause a corresponding beast to appear in the endless abyss. In other words, everyone, whether a cultivator or an ordinary person, has another self in the endless abyss. And this self is even more powerful than the body...... Then the Endless Abyss is actually the same as the relationship between the Fortune Transformation Tower and the Nine Shades Dungeon, and it is a mirror image of this world. What is reflected in the endless abyss is the evil of man. ”
No solution
He looked at the old man blankly, and really couldn't find a way to crack it.
"It's time for us to go. ”
The old man glanced at the little girl: "I won't stop you from taking her away, she's so weak that she can't hold on for long." Even if she remains, at most, the things in the Endless Abyss will eventually break through the Nine Shades Dungeon. Now I instruct you to rescue your father and open the Divine Wood Array. The Shenmu Great Array can last for about five years at most, and this is still without variables...... Li Lanfeng has done enough for the people of Tianfu Continent, and Shen Teng has paid enough, so ...... Maybe it's really people's turn to face this difficult situation on their own. ”
