Chapter 126: Longtan
Legend has it that the original appearance of this world was an eternal darkness. At that time, there was no heaven and earth, no sun or moon, and no living beings.
There is no passage of minutes and seconds, and there is no change of years and months, everything is sleeping, compressed and conceived in a mess of chaos.
And the most primitive human beings were born in this endless darkness. Since then, mankind has embarked on the footsteps of chasing the light, and from the beginning to the end, it has never stopped.
And that fear of darkness is forever engraved in the genes of human beings, passed down from generation to generation. Today, the ubiquitous light has gradually dispelled this fear, and even in the darkest of nights, there is a little starlight and faint lights.
After being swept into a huge vortex of smoke, Qing Ya could only see that there was a white world all around him, he held Hua Qing'er and Qiu Chiyu in one hand, and Qing Ming in the other, floating in the wind in the air in the reverse direction.
I don't know how long I've been floating in the sky, he can't see the scenery around him. Maybe now, they've crossed over to another world.
As if falling into a calm lake, Qingya felt that he had broken through a thin barrier, and everything in front of him instantly fell into darkness and silence.
Through the ages, there are eight directions, that is the beginning of the world, Qingya has never seen such a deep darkness, so that he has the illusion that it is not the world that has become black, but his own blindness. Even if the spiritual power of the needle was released and spread, Qingya still couldn't feel the existence of anything.
And the most disturbing thing is that Qingya suddenly felt that the space between his left arm was empty, where did Qiu Chiyu and Hua Qing'er go? Why didn't I feel their departure at all, as if they didn't exist in the first place?
For a while, Qingya couldn't help but panic, now that Qiu Chiyu has lost her strength, if she separates from Hua Qing'er again, it will be......
No, none of them can be hurt at all, they must find them quickly, at this moment, only the Qing Ming who is still holding in his hand can make him feel at ease.
Unable to distinguish the direction in the dark, Qingya only knew that he was falling all the time, like in the vast sea, slowly sinking to the bottom of the sea.
I don't know how long it took, Qingya finally felt his feet on the ground, and the long-term weightlessness made his steps stumble a few times, just like when Shizun took him back to Shaking Light Peak for the first time.
The ground under his feet was neither dirt nor stone, and it was solid and abnormal when he stepped on it, Qingya squatted down and touched the ground, only to feel a cold and smooth feeling from his fingertips. He put his entire palm on the ground and stroked it back and forth a few times, but found that the ground here was very flat, and no one had any bumpy touch.
No matter how miraculous nature is, it can't dig such a ground, so what kind of sacredness will open up such an eternal dark world, will it be the dragon?
In any case, now we can only take one step at a time.
Qingya tried to light the path with the sword light, but in this dark world, any light was quickly disintegrated and absorbed, and nothing could be illuminated, not even the ground beneath his feet.
After losing the sense of direction, human cognition is also greatly affected, and when you feel that you have been walking in a straight line, before you know it, you have deviated from the direction, and even circled around a large circle.
So, Qingya put the long sword in his hand on the ground, and he stepped on the sword body, running the sword technique, Qing Ming floated slightly in the air, carrying Qingya to fly low on the ground.
At first, Qing Ya was worried that Qing Ming would be unhappy that he stepped on it, because when he was chasing the Wildfire Cultists in Qiantang, he used it to pry the stone, and it complained about the mud on the sword.
But this time, Qing Ming was unusually cooperative, it obediently let Qing Ya step on his sword body, and carried him all the way forward. This time, Qingya completely let go of his control of the direction, and left it all to Qing Ming to control the direction.
"Qingming, thank you for showing me the way, and when you wake up completely, we will be able to fight side by side."
Qing Ming continued to fly forward, but Qing Ya clearly felt its response, as if to say, "Just you?" Are you 20,000 years late? ”
Accustomed to its character for a long time, Qingya would never refute his words, because it was very likely that it had really lived for tens of thousands of years.
I don't know how long I walked through the boundless darkness, Qingya roughly estimated that it would be a few days, but here, it seemed that such a distance was only a few steps away.
Finally, Qingya felt a different smell, a gust of wind, out of nowhere, slapped on Qingya's face, smelled it carefully, and it seemed to have the smell of water vapor.
In the past few days when only silence is accompanied, such a gust of wind is enough to make Qingya like a treasure.
"Qingming, follow the direction of the wind, let's go to find the place where the wind rises."
After a turn, Qing Ming turned around, and Qing Ya could feel that the breeze was rushing towards him.
Wow~Wow~
It was the sound of the waves crashing on the reef, and this was also the first sound from the outside world that Qingya had heard in the past few days, except for the sound of Qingying breaking through the air.
Qingya couldn't help but be a little excited, if he flew down to the destination like this, Qingya would sooner or later come out with a mental illness.
Although human beings have now broken away from the primitive slash-and-burn and tribal cluster form, they are still immutable social animals, even those hermits who have escaped from society and live in seclusion, they are also attached to the mountains and rivers, and enjoy themselves with natural creatures.
No one can endure the darkness and silence for a long time, at least for the current Qingya, he can't do it, maybe those who have crossed the gap between immortals and walked on the supreme immortal path can do it.
It wasn't until the feeling of humidity in the air hit his face that Qingya felt the temperature around him drop suddenly, and Qing Ming also stopped at this time. The sound of the waves hitting the shore was in his ears, and listening to the endless tide of the wilderness, Qingya realized that this was not a river or lake, but a great river and sea.
Where is this, are you still in the polar ridge? Why is there such a vast sea area in the middle of ice and snow at such a high latitude?
Qing Ya jumped off the sword, Qing Ming returned to his hand, and took a few steps forward, not as soft as he imagined stepping on the sand, even if it was by the sea, the ground here was still so smooth and flat.
In this way, this sea is not naturally formed.
Qingya took a few more steps until the tide flooded his instep, but he couldn't feel the seawater seeping into his shoes and touching his skin. So, he squatted down again and scooped a handful of seawater with both hands, and this time, his palm clearly felt the cold touch of the seawater.
Even after the sea water passed through his fingertips and the sea breeze dried his palms, there were some small particles as fine as powder left in his palms, which were the remaining salts after the sea water had evaporated.
Continue to fly all the way along the coast, Qingya still no one finds them, the long coastline can't go to the end, and they can't fly this boundless sea.
Looking down at the universe, the power of human beings is so small, even after a long period of cultivation, in front of nature, human beings are still like a speck of dust.
The legendary power of moving mountains and reclaiming the sea, fighting and moving stars, can anyone really reach it?
But even with that kind of power, the sea is just a drop in front of him, so what about when he leaves this world and faces the vast galaxy?
He has cultivated to the pinnacle of the world, but he is still the dust in the universe. In the universe, there is a scene of star collision and the collapse of the entire nebula at every moment, regardless of whether there is a high civilization there, in the face of such a natural disaster, everything is useless, and everything returns to nothingness again.
It is said that mayflies don't know spring and autumn, but why aren't we the same as mayflies?
Just when Qingya was mourning the imminent life of our life and envying the infinity of the sea, a song came from the sea in the distance.
The song has no lyrics, just a simple note hummed softly, but with a pure and ethereal penetrating power, as deep and mysterious as the sea, it draws people deeply into it, and cannot extricate themselves.
If it was just that, Qingya, who had strong spiritual power, would not be confused by such a sound, but even if the above elements were thrown away, it would only take a little to make Qingya fall into it like a demon.
Just because, it was Hua Qing'er's voice.
"It's Qing'er singing!"
Qingya excitedly rose up with his sword again, and flew towards the sea without any scruples.
The blue light in his hand flashed a few times, and the temperature of the hilt of the sword was also a little colder, and Qing Ya knew that it was Qing Ming reminding him that the song in the distance was likely to be an illusion or a trap.
He also knew that it was too absurd to hear Hua Qing'er's singing on the sea, but so what? Even if there are 9,999 illusions out of 10,000 possibilities, as long as there is a slight possibility that it is her, she will resolutely find her.
This world is very big, so big that trillions of creatures live together, and its own world is very small, with only a few peaks, a tall building, and a few people.
Therefore, he will never allow the few people in this small world to be hurt at all, even if his strength is very small, even if there is a hell Shura in front of him.
The more you fly to the sea, the waves on the sea are becoming more and more violent, and the waves are rising from the high wall to the green cliff, and the green cliff can't see anything, so you can only rely on your sense of hearing to adjust your position, but fortunately, the green shadow has an automatic navigation function, and she avoids the waves one after another.
At this time, Qingya heard a sound of breaking water, as if something had rushed up to the sea and was coming towards him. In this unnatural sea, there are unknown creatures.
