Chapter Seventy-One: A Falling Petal from a Flower
In the center of Lin Han's eyebrows, a thin wound was revealed.
Strangely, the wound was not bleeding like a normal human, but a viscous liquid glowing with a chilling turquoise glow. The liquid slid down her wrinkled face, as if the venom seeping from the secluded mansion filled the cracked earth of a thousand ravines.
The Zhiyou pearl in Lu Ming's arms was so brilliant that it almost made her think that Lin Han in front of her was an old monster who really stepped out of the netherworld.
Lin Han dipped her fingertips into a little blood flowing from the center of her eyebrows, put it in front of her eyes and looked at it carefully, and then she smiled as if laughing at herself: "That's the price of getting out of the netherworld...... Although there is still a human shell, the inside is almost completely filled with the breath...... What Dao power, what divine thoughts, have been devoured by this kind of thing, only relying on the foundation of so many years of magic skills to support the Lingtai a little clear, and maintain the meaning tree from withering...... Young man, you are very good, hehe, those old ghosts who want to come with me will also look forward to the moment when they bury you with their own hands. ”
Changning maintained the posture of drawing his sword, maintained vigilance, and listened quietly to Lin Han's words. This sword of his was extremely powerful, and the Soul Confusion Array suppressed Lin Han, and those undead souls burned their origins to form shackles, which created this once-in-a-lifetime flaw, allowing Changning to accurately pierce through Lin Han's Divine Court with one sword.
At this point, Lin Han's Dao and Soul have been fundamentally damaged, and even if he can continue to stand here, he is already at the end of his strong crossbow. She ignored the reactions of Chang Ning and Lu Ming, and just whispered to herself.
"The old body has been waiting for revenge for a long time, but unfortunately he can't cross this threshold in cultivation after all. It's easy to find a good body that you can give up, but you don't want to be ruined by your father and mother in the West Pole. It's really time, and life is ...... Ji Changning, before the old body came to look for you, your father and mother had already broken through several sects of our Dao, and it was only a matter of time before the location of the old brother's senior brother was found. My senior brother's cultivation of the formation back then was already astonishing, and after inheriting the mantle of the master, I am afraid that he had already gained a firm foothold in eight steps. Coupled with the advantage of the main home of the sect, even if your father and mother claim that the pastoral song of the four seas is nine steps, I am afraid that you may not be able to get benefits. ”
Changning's calm expression finally changed. Even though the change in this moment was extremely subtle, where could it escape Lin Han's gaze. Her expression was distorted, she couldn't tell whether it was pain or pleasure, and even her voice began to be hoarse and deformed: "Do you think that the jade plate that broke the formation was given to you for nothing? Do you think that the old body will leave no way back? Hahahaha! Take the formation base to save them, go! The life of the Great Formation of the Guardian Sect of the Sect is recorded in the jade plate, but do you have the ability to save it? You are only three steps! Three steps! If it weren't for today's various opportunities, you would have injured the old body that was originally at the peak of the earthly character? The herringbone realm is something that is not even an ant in front of us!"
"Shut up!" shouted Luming.
Changning patted her on the shoulder: "It's nothing, it's just a way to provoke." The trapped beast is still fighting, not to mention a giant of the outer way. ”
Lin Han's frantic expression calmed down the moment Changning said this. The corners of her mouth drooped, and her face, which was almost covered with turquoise blood, seemed to reveal endless bitterness: "Your heart is much stronger than I thought. But it doesn't matter, it's fun to kill like this. ”
These were the last words of the former saintess of Tongyumen, who had caused a lot of trouble in both the monastic world and the imperial dynasty. After saying this, Lin Han's breath suddenly cut off, and the remaining bit of vitality completely dissipated.
The gloomy atmosphere that pressed on the Chen Mansion gradually dissipated, and the clear glow of the moonlight finally sprinkled into the already wasteland courtyard, revealing the dilapidated and collapsed pavilions.
Changning's last bit of strength ran out, and he fell to the ground, panting without any image.
His aura had already stopped, even worse than usual, and the amazing sword that pierced through Lin Han's Divine Court hollowed out all his Dao power and mind. At this time, Changning was extremely reluctant to even hold the sword in his hand, not to mention that he had to hold on to the last bit of momentum just now, which almost further squeezed out the little strength he had left.
Lu Ming's situation is slightly better, but she is a little out of strength, and her realm is already one step higher than Changning, so she can still stagger to Changning's side at this time.
"Are you okay?, I thought that this downward chivalry would not succeed, and that he would be miserably as soon as he left the mountain gate......" She looked palpitating and patted Pingchuan's chest.
Changning smiled bitterly, barely gathered a little strength, and sighed: "Some of them are out of strength, they are all minor injuries...... It's just that I pity these innocent people in Chen's mansion, they have burned out their original spirits with the strength of the formation, and I am afraid that they will never have the opportunity to reincarnate again......"
"But that's the best of things. If they don't burn their souls, they will be trapped in the array forever and tortured for others, and we don't know how to release the souls that have been trapped in the array back into reincarnation, if they don't enter the reincarnation, I'm afraid what awaits them is a more cruel end......"
Changning was silent for a moment, and found that he couldn't find a better way to get rid of himself now, so he had to sigh weakly.
If you are thinking clearly, you will not be passive to such a point. But why did he, a Buddha, do such a thing to help and abet the abuse? Changning didn't know, and neither did Lu Ming. Qing Si is not there, no one can ask, and this has become an unsolved case that makes the two difficult to let go. It seems that maybe I will have time in the future, and sooner or later I will have to go to Wuding Temple. At least the nine hundred and ninety-nine souls here are either Qingsi or Wuding Temple, and they always have to give an explanation.
"By the way, when did you get out of trouble? A Thousand Souls Devouring Body is scary when you hear it, your soul is okay, right?"
Changning was silent for a moment and replied, "...... After being pulled into the illusion, he was almost overwhelmed by endless fragments of memory. However, there is more confusion and helplessness in these memories than fierceness, and the living puppet itself is centered on the soul of the old lady of the Chen family, although the consciousness has been erased, you can still feel the respect of these souls for the old lady. Mrs. Chen is compassionate, and it is precisely because of this that I have been able to keep my clarity from this chaotic memory. In fact, I was already half-awake when you fought with the living puppet, but it wasn't until you duel Lin Han later and dragged her that I could have time to communicate with these ghosts, and finally woke up completely. ”
What Changning didn't say was that during the whole process, his soul was suffering unspeakable pain.
From the beginning, these spirits were driven by the formation to attach to his souls, merging with each other and destroying his own consciousness.
Before we were able to communicate with each other, the pain of soul devouring was actually inflicted on us.
He did find a flaw at the last moment, and was finally able to communicate with those revenants who were almost inseparable from their own souls, but as the price for these souls to regain even a minimum of sobriety, Changning used his soul power as a knife to cut his soul piece by piece, removing those memories that belonged to these souls, and returning them to their original owners.
This is a long Ling Chi at the level of the Divine Soul.
He didn't even know how he managed to survive in the end.
He just stubbornly felt that if so many ordinary and innocent people really fell into the devil's path like this, it was not worth it.
The night gradually ended, and the morning glow gradually dyed from the sky, and at this time, Changning, who was finally relieved, also held on to the limit, and a wave of sleepiness swept over. He closed his eyes weakly, and his consciousness sank into the deepest part of the soul sea.
There, an ancient rune was gradually lit up, and some kind of Dao rhyme that Changning was still completely incomprehensible was emanating out, enveloping his already shattered divine soul, seeping into every even the slightest defect and beginning to repair it.
In an inconspicuous street market in Butianguan, a cute little girl munching on a sugar gourd raised her head and looked in one direction, smiling sweetly.
