Chapter Eighty-Five: The Last Ancestor
In the early morning, when the thousands of mountains first woke up and came out of the clouds, there were milky white clouds still floating among the wounds, as if Xian'e, who had never known the suffering of mortals, was dancing gently. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 As far as the young man could see, the ravine near and far had been filled in for the most part, and it seemed that it was not much different from the ridge, like a chaotic staircase with layers upon layers......
At the first dawn, the mountain scenery that was once quiet and graceful like a shy girl is no longer there. I don't know how many worldly scenery are buried in the boulders, mud and sand are piled up indiscriminately, just like the open-chested and unsightly chaimen slut.
The ancestral land of Yushan and Xiao Yun is even more cracked and green after the catastrophe. At this moment, the scene in the mountains is almost unbelievable......
Xiao Yun was independent of the heights, and the young man's long hair in the morning light was flying in the wind, but he couldn't blow away the grief and anger in his heart. The young man who ran thousands of miles of mountain roads overnight, although he had the worst plan in his heart, but when he really saw such a scene in his ancestral land, he couldn't help the nameless anger in his heart.
Once upon a time, Xiao Yun fantasized about the ancestral land like a fairyland, finally came today, and I didn't want to leave the young man here with only sadness and despair. Xiao Yun stood for a long time before moving forward silently, the tears in his purple-red and bloody eyes looming, but he was forcibly held back by the stubborn young man.
It didn't take long for the young man to come to the highest place of the Scarlet Lin Peak, but then he found that there was no trace of human habitation in the place where the Blood Spirit Sect was located nearly two thousand years ago. Obviously, a long time has passed, and this place should have been the location of the Xiuzhen Holy Land, but I don't know how many years it has been abandoned.
Xiao Yun, who had collapsed nearly halfway to the Scarlet Lin Peak, only cared about wandering, as if he was hanging on to his ancestral land, which was completely gone, even if his heart turned a thousand times, he was reluctant to leave.
But what can you do if you don't give up? This crumbling ancestral land is buried deep in the years when mortals will never be helpless.
In the morning light, the bleak wind passed, and the sad young man walked forward silently. Suddenly, a ray of surprise appeared on Xiao Yun's face, and then the young man sped up his pace. At this moment, I saw a huge crack in the ground in front of me, and bursts of fire breath continued to pour out of it.
Undoubtedly, this catastrophe that slashed off nearly half of the Scarlet Lin Peak also completely exposed the underground secrets carefully constructed by the Blood Spirit Sect thousands of years ago. Fortunately, the first to arrive after the catastrophe were the descendants of the Xiao family, which hid a secret for many years, but they were not afraid of outflow.
Standing beside this huge crack that he didn't know how deep it was, Xiao Yun also had hesitation in the hope on his face. The young man seemed to think that this was a place where the ancestors used the earth fire to make alchemy, and he didn't know if he would be able to find the relics of the ancestors in it after many years.
Undoubtedly, at this moment, Xiao Yun was very afraid of seeing the facts that made him desperate again, and he hesitated to enter.
After a quarter of an hour, the young man, who could not get rid of the longing in his heart and only wished to see the ruins of his ancestors with his own eyes, jumped into the huge dark crack immediately.
Bursts of heat in the darkness kept coming, and the dark red light from the distance below gradually brightened. Xiao Yun, who was falling rapidly, held his breath, but he was extremely nervous with anticipation in his heart, and the young man didn't know if he would fall directly into the underground lava, hoping that this was really the place where he speculated that the ancestors were alchemizing.
After a dozen breaths, the increasingly hot dark red underground space appeared in Xiao Yun's eyes. The young man hurriedly used the wind control technique to stabilize his falling body, and only after his feet were on the ground did he begin to investigate carefully.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Yun suddenly changed as soon as he began to investigate, only to see that there were waves of blood coming from all directions where the young man was. Among them, there were countless bloodthirsty Shura phantoms stepping on the waves, and countless sounds in the bloodlight masterpiece shook Xiao Yun's heart, and the battle cry couldn't help but hear, and in an instant, this place had turned into a sea of blood killing field.
Fortunately, Xiao Yun had been cultivating the Blood Spirit Heavenly Scripture all along, how could the Blood Sea Shura Array, one of the three major town sect arrays of the Blood Spirit Sect, not recognize it. So I saw the purple-robed young man unhurriedly ascending the gang step fight, and in a slight flash, he got out of the big array, and the monstrous sea of blood and countless Shura suddenly blew away.
At this moment, Xiao Yun saw that the place he came to was as expected, and the underground space with a radius of nearly ten miles was covered with countless formations, which seemed to be the reason why this place could survive the catastrophe. And the huge Danding in the center of this place is the proof that Xiao Yun's speculation is confirmed, under the rows of spiritual beads emitting blood light on the walls of the surrounding caves, nearly a hundred stone doors are obviously independent alchemy rooms.
However, in this hidden underground space, there are more bones scattered all over the ground. I don't know how many people from the Blood Spirit Sect avoided entering the depths of this underground when the Blood Spirit Sect was destroyed, and how many people starved to death in this Jedi with no way out.
It is natural to say that this is a Jedi, and Xiao Yun has long seen the closed portal at the end of the left side of this place. I don't know how thick the Broken Dragon Steel Gate is, just look at its dark appearance of being fifty zhang high and densely packed with formation runes, and we can know that this mountain-like isolation thing has been completely sealed off thousands of years ago.
Such a scene is also illustrating that if it weren't for the arrival of the catastrophe, nearly half of the Scarlet Lin Peak would have been cut. Even if someone knew about the existence of this place, it would never be possible to enter this Jedi that was densely packed with formations and completely enclosed.
However, nearly two thousand years later, under the cycle of Heavenly Dao, the descendants of the Xiao family still came first. I don't know if this is fate, Xiao Yun, the only disciple of the Blood Spirit Sect who still exists, how can he have such a trip. It seems that this damn creation is making people, and I am afraid that the hatred in the young man's heart is not bitter enough.
Looking at the accumulated white bones of his own fallen ancestors, Xiao Yun sighed in his heart and was full of resentment. Perhaps the tragedy of 2,000 years ago had nothing to do with Xiao Yun, but as long as they are human, who doesn't understand the truth that blood is thicker than water? As a descendant of the Xiao family and a teenager with the most extreme temperament, can he not be hateful and full of murderous thoughts......
Xiao Yun, who was silent and agitated, stretched out his hand to the white bones on the ground, but the young man's trembling fingers immediately touched the bones into a puddle of powder. The ruthlessness of the years was fully displayed in front of Xiao Yun at this moment, and the remains of these ancestors were clearly unbearable.
Tears gradually flowed from the young man's cheeks, and Xiao Yun felt the sadness of hearing of his parents' death again. The white bone powder sprinkled in front of him seemed to be whirling and dancing, as if the ancestors of the Xiao family, who had returned to dust after nearly two thousand years of silence, were also excited about the arrival of their bloodline descendants.
Xiao Yun looked at the dust that seemed to be communicating his heart to himself, and for a while, there were countless thoughts in his heart that were entangled. At this moment, a loud roar came, and I saw a blood-red figure like a ghost suddenly burst out of the dark corner, and immediately rushed straight to Xiao Yun.
And at this moment, the distracted young man was so stunned under the chaos of his thoughts that even the Blood Temple, which had taken the initiative to protect the Lord several times at critical moments, did not react in this sudden and obviously murderous pounce. In an instant, a "bang" sound was heard, and the sluggish Xiao Yun was already knocked away by the flying figure more than ten feet away.
Xiao Yun, who was suddenly hit hard, woke up like a dream, and the young man who got rid of his endless grief only felt that a flame was burning in his chest, and he opened his mouth to spit out a mouthful of blood. It was also thanks to Xiao Yun's strange body that had been cultivated to be extremely tenacious, which was equivalent to the defensive power of the peak of the fourth layer of the Blood Spirit Holy Body, that he was not severely injured on the spot by the surprise attack.
Xiao Yun, who was shocked, immediately raised his eyes and saw a humanoid monster crawling where he was standing just now. At this moment, the raider roared and stared at him with a pair of blood-red pupils. Saliva splattered from its large cracked mouth, scattering its head with a frantically swaying head.
Although this humanoid monster with a pure body and a blood-stained body was like a beast, Xiao Yun found that this raider also seemed to know the blood path spell. It's just because the monster's pair of red pupils are the other pupil technique of the Blood Spirit Sect, and only the disciples of the Blood Spirit Sect are qualified to practice.
However, as the humanoid monster crawled closer, Xiao Yun didn't think much about it at this time, even if he urged the evil evil 'pain' to attack under the rapid turn of his mind. At this moment, I saw that the humanoid monster that rose into the air again and roared and pounced towards Xiao Yun was like being shot down by an invisible heavy punch, and suddenly fell to the ground and wailed.
It is obviously impossible for the monster that has been hit by the evil to have the power to attack, but Xiao Yun has not urged the 'pain' to directly devour its soul, but only controls the monster's actions. He was undoubtedly amazed by the creatures and boys that appeared in this Jedi, and when he wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth, he slowly walked to the side of the monster that was as limp as mud.
And Xiao Yun looked at the not too dark red pearl light here, but he was immediately stunned. It's just because the humanoid monster in front of him is actually a person, a living female old man!
I don't know if this beast-like old woman was a survivor of the fall of the Blood Spirit Sect, or if she came here for some incredible reason in the years that followed.
But one thing is obvious, this old woman who has lost her human thinking ability and resembles a beast must be a descendant disciple of the Blood Spirit Sect. Not only the Blood Palace, which could distinguish the Xiao family's bloodline, but also the fact that it did not react when it was attacked just now can be confirmed. What's more, after some observation, Xiao Yun was shocked to find that the old woman's shriveled chest had a bloody palm mark that even he didn't have.
Could this be his own ancestor of the Xiao family? The young man couldn't believe what he saw in front of him. However, not wanting to believe does not mean that the truth does not exist, and after a moment of sluggishness, Xiao Yun finally got an answer that made him not know whether to be sad or angry.
And the price of getting this answer is undoubtedly very expensive, but Xiao Yun is extremely reluctant to take out the jade bottle, and even feed the old woman a drop of the Pure Divine Spring. Obviously, the boy wanted to clear the mind of this incredible person and get the truth.
After a few breaths, I saw that this old woman who was like a beast had regained a little bit of human consciousness, and she immediately cried out loud and ignored Xiao Yun. Hearing the vague words of the old woman's cry, Xiao Yun only felt a chill and a sense of horror.
It was only because this weeping old woman was repenting, repenting to her parents and relatives, and repenting to her brothers and sisters. When the Blood Spirit Sect was destroyed, she was only an old woman who practiced qi cultivation and was a girl, but in order to survive in this Jedi, she devoured the corpses of nearly a thousand of her kind.
Can force a young girl in the prime of cardamom to feed on carrion corpses, and be completely erased of humanity, how many unimaginable tragedies were there in this closed Jedi at the beginning?
How many people were killed and eaten by their own people in this place, and how many people died of cannibalism in despair? It can be seen that the fragility and despicability of human nature are always vividly manifested at the last moment.
Xiao Yun looked at this ancestor who could no longer be regarded as a human being, and the confusion and coldness in his heart only made him sluggish. In fact, this old woman can indeed no longer be regarded as a human being, at most her strength is similar to that of foundation building, but she has lived for nearly two thousand years, which is undoubtedly a strange thing that violates the rules of life. It can only show that the old woman has undergone many mutations, whether physical or mental, and has long ceased to be a human being.
The young man's heart is bitter, sad, angry, and the only thing he doesn't have is to kill. In front of the ancestor who had been struggling to survive alone in the ground for a long time, Xiao Yun didn't know whether to pity him or denounce him. For a moment the boy was silent, and silent, until he did not want to say anything......
At this moment, I saw that the old woman who had regained some consciousness suddenly stopped crying, but she twisted her bloody head and looked at Xiao Yun. It's strange that a young man who is as complicated as a mess in his heart actually saw a trace of warmth in the eyes of the blood-gled old woman.
The naked old woman, who was like a blood beast, squeezed out a wisp of an indiscognizable smile at this moment, and for the first and last time, she said a slightly normal human language to Xiao Yun, who was at a loss.
"Thanks... Thank you...... Child... Child, I... I sniffed... Your taste...... You... You are also surnamed Xiao...... Child... Child... Newspaper for me... Revenge ......"
Immediately, I saw the old woman waving her right hand like a ghost claw, but it was plunged into her chest before the sluggish Xiao Yun had time to react.
Suddenly, a large amount of blood splattered all around, and the old woman did not look in the slightest pain, not even a sound, but the hideous old face was full of relief.
The silent boy watched all this happen, and did not step forward to stop it. Perhaps Xiao Yun thought that only in this way could this poor, hateful, and pathetic ancestor say goodbye to his suffering.
The ancestors who struggled to survive in this underground for nearly 2,000 years, not to mention the fear of the people when they were killing each other at the beginning, but also the mental torture of devouring the corpses of relatives and fellow clans in order to survive, and what kind of extremely distorted mind did the old woman, who was once a young girl, have?
When you are not sane, you are a beast, and when you are a little sober, you are condemned by your own conscience, and you cannot escape the torture of being possessed all the time, and what joy is there in living like this? Only rebirth in samsara can put an end to all this.
Xiao Yun will definitely remember today's scene for the rest of her life, the ancestor in front of her was also a human and a monk, but what did this bring to her? Such a life that has not seen the light of day is caused by stepping on the path of cultivation, and she has never left a name until her death, perhaps she has forgotten the ancestor herself.
I only hope that the ancestors will not be human beings after being reincarnated, let alone embark on this path of cultivation from which there is no turning back. How many of the hundreds of billions of Terran monks can go to the spiritual realm? Who can truly attain enlightenment, and who has not stepped on countless corpses and bones to achieve success?
Purity, ease, and immortality always belong to only a few people, and countless monks, like the ancestors in front of them, have always been just victims of each other's struggles and stepping stones for others to forge ahead. What is the difference between a monk who hears good is a monk seeking the truth, and if he doesn't say it well, he is an ant, and a mortal who is at the mercy of fate?
Xiao Yun's thoughts at the moment are becoming more and more extreme, and the stubbornness in his heart that is unwilling to be manipulated by fate has skyrocketed infinitely. It's a pity that the young man didn't know that no matter how he struggled and how he struggled, his fate was destined to be the same as that of the ancestors who died in front of him, there would only be countless pains and sufferings......
Silently, the breath of earth fire was constantly surging towards the cracks in the heights, and Xiao Yun just stared at the last ancestor of this place who had passed away. After a while, the young man walked silently with tears in his eyes, and came to the old woman's body and stretched out his arms, but he tightly hugged the miserable life that had passed in his arms.
The silent young man let his tears fall one after another, and suddenly said in a quiet voice: "Ancestor, rest in peace, Xiao Yun will definitely avenge my Xiao family......" (To be continued. )
