Chapter 460: The Girl in Red
The chaotic and disorderly space, the world that is about to collapse, the long river of time hangs high in the sky, and the years are like gurgling water, slowly passing away.
Xu Lin sat in the void, looking for the one who had escaped, forgetting time and everything. Xihua Zhenjie was running on its own inside him, and above his head, the sundial released a time rule that enveloped him.
The time ratio is one hour more than one day, and Xu Lin's sitting is a full three days, thirty-six hours. He didn't move for thirty-six days, and his eyebrows gradually turned from indifferent at the beginning to anxious, his brows began to wrinkle, and the mana fluctuations released from his body gradually weakened.
Thirty-six days of unleashing his divine consciousness to visualize everything he thought had to do with the Lost One, from the beginning of the Ding to the strange things that followed, his mind was consumed to a very large extent.
"What is the one that has escaped? It is full of infinite changes, uncertainties, and ever-changing, representing the beginning and the end. What the hell is it?" Xu Lin pondered, all his thoughts seemed to be stuck in a quagmire, and no matter how he walked, he couldn't get out.
It was another two hours, and two days later, Xu Lin stopped comprehending. The eyes opened, filled with infinite confusion. At this time, his mind was already very consumed, and the whole person seemed to have lost a lot of weight. His face lost his lustre, and the whole person looked particularly sluggish.
Every piece of flesh and blood in his body, Xu Lin could clearly feel a kind of hunger and thirst, as if he had walked in the desert for many days without drinking water, a large amount of essence was lost, and a sense of weakness surged into his heart.
Xu Lin looked at his body with a wry smile, the originally golden sword bone had also turned into a very dull dead color at this time, losing its brilliance, and Xu Lin could feel that the sword bone had become much more fragile.
Xu Lin didn't expect that in the thirty-eight days of comprehension, not only did he not gain any of it, but his body also became more fragile than before because of the loss of essence vitality.
After looking up at the world he was in, and finding that it was still exactly the same as when he came in, Xu Lin sighed helplessly, stretched out his hand and waved out 100,000 Xuanyang Pills. One hundred thousand Xuanyang Pills burned at the same time, releasing a large amount of mana, and Xu Lin absorbed it into his body and began to replenish his life essence.
The path of cultivation is like sailing against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat. Xu Lin had seen this sentence in the classics, and he had heard Su Mingyue warn him, but this was the first time he really understood the truth of this sentence. Thirty-eight days without cultivation, he felt that his cultivation had regressed a little.
Originally, he had already reached the peak of the step of immortality, but after absorbing the divine spirit seed of the Great Sage of Fighting, his cultivation regressed to the middle stage of the step of immortality. Although it is the middle stage, it is also the peak of the middle stage. At this time, he felt that his cultivation had regressed to the edge of the middle stage, and he might fall down to the middle stage and return to the early stage level at any time.
"I don't know how much longer I have been teaching and cultivating than I have, and I have understood more truths than me, and every word he says is very reasonable. Xu Lin muttered to himself.
Thinking of Su Mingyue, Xu Lin couldn't help but see vivid characters appear in front of him. Xiaoyao Teacher, Fuyao Teacher, Zhuan Luoyue, Yu Qiancheng, Du Luo Zhou, Lan Feng, Wan'er. In the end, Xu Lin's gaze was fixed on the last girl in the red shirt, his senior sister, Su Jianxiu.
"Senior sister!" Xu Lin's expression became stunned, and he shouted softly. A hand stretched out, as if to hold the phantom in front of him.
"It's been a long time, Senior Sister, are you okay?" Xu Lin asked softly as his gaze passed through this world of countless layers of space, in the direction of the Shaking Light Cave Heaven in the Northern Youzhou.
At the same time, Youzhou, shaking the light of the cave.
As the date of Dabi approached, there was an extremely tense atmosphere in the cave now. The once-in-a-decade competition of Shaking Light Cave Heaven is not only the position on the True Transmission Heaven List, but also the cultivation materials and benefits that will be distributed to each True Transmission disciple in the next ten years. What attracted them even more was that after Dabi, all True Transmission disciples who had made progress in the past ten years could enter a certain place in the Heavenly Palace of Creation to get a recipe, and there was also a reward for cultivating in the Heavenly Palace of Creation for one month.
In the Heavenly Palace, one day on the outside and one year on the inside. And as a true disciple of the Shaking Light Cave Heaven, he knows the benefits of cultivating in it. According to legend, there is an incomparably precious heavenly vein in the Heavenly Palace of Creation that can be encountered but cannot be sought in the immortal path. Cultivating above the Heavenly Vein, there is a great chance of being promoted to a higher level, which has a fatal temptation for every True Transmission disciple.
And for the disciples of the Shaking Light Courtyard, the ten-year competition also represents the opportunity of ten true disciples. Becoming a true disciple is the wish of millions of disciples of the inner and outer gates. Therefore, as the time gradually approached, a tense wind of cultivation blew in the entire Shaking Light Cave Heaven.
However, even if they were all hurrying to cultivate, every True Transmission disciple who had passed under the True Transmission Heavenly List understood that in this ten-year competition, they could only compete for the second place. The first one belongs to that person.
Thinking of that person, almost every True Transmission disciple would reflexively raise their heads and look at the row of words at the top of the True Transmission Heavenly List.
"The first place, Xu Lin, in the middle of the step of immortality, belongs to Gong Yuwu!"
In the extreme north of Youzhou, the black mist in the sky has spread out of the range of the frozen soil, which is twice as large as before Xu Lin entered the ancient secret realm. And around the black mist, the two holy lands of the Immortal Dao, the Five Cave Heavens, and the Nine Dao Sects all sent disciples to station, and each sect sent the Supreme Elder who cultivated the step of immortality to sit in town, and the Shaking Light Cave Heaven was no exception.
More than one hundred and twenty miles to the east of the black mist, there was a small town, and there was originally a small sect of the Immortal Dao in this town, but after the disciples of the sixteen sects settled in the extreme north, this town became the base camp where the disciples of the Shaking Light Cave Heaven were stationed.
The Shaking Light Cave Heaven sent 1,200 disciples to garrison here, and the Immortal Supreme Elder who guarded it was Sun Wu.
At this time, in the hall of the attic, Sun Wuzheng was sitting in the first place, holding an immortal golden order in his hand, his eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry. And on his lower side, sitting on the left is Hong Yu, the chief disciple of this ten-year shaking light cave, and on the right is a girl in her twenties, wearing a purple and red robe, and on her left hand, a bright red silk is wrapped like a spirit snake, setting off two blush on her beautiful face.
The girl doesn't need any movements, just sitting there quietly, she can exude a noble atmosphere like an elf. It's too vulgar to describe it as glamorous, she is the type that makes people feel particularly comfortable when they look at it.
Every time Hong Yu saw this girl, the depths of his eyes couldn't help but reveal a glimmer of heat. And every time Sun Wu looked at this girl, there was a kind of pampering in his eyes.
Maybe Xu Lin couldn't have imagined that in the past few years since he left the Shaking Light Cave Heaven, Su Jianxiu had locked himself in the Heavenly Palace of Creation for five full years. When she came out again, the little girl who was like an elf had grown into a beautiful and glamorous girl, and her cultivation, under closer inspection, had reached the peak of the Destiny of Heaven.
"Xiuxiu, your father sent the golden order for longevity. The ten-year Dabi in Dongtian is about to begin, and your father hopes that you can return to Dongtian to cultivate for a period of time with peace of mind, and make good preparations for Dabi. Sun Wu spoke, looking at Su Jianxiu's gaze as if he was looking at his own daughter. He has no children and no daughters, and he has a special love for Su Jianxiu.
"Is the ten-year competition about to start!" Su Jianxiu heard Sun Wu's words, her expression was slightly stunned, and a line of imperceptible pain flashed on her beautiful face, and she muttered to herself.
Her voice is like spring water Ding Dong, like a jade bead falling on a plate, very crisp and extremely good. But when Sun Wu heard it, his expression changed slightly. Then, Sun Wu said a little helplessly: "Xiuxiu, are you thinking about that little guy again?"
"Uncle Shi!" Hearing Sun Wu say what was in his heart, Su Jianxiu shouted helplessly.
"Hey, that guy seems to have been out of the cave for almost nine years, and there was news eight years ago, but after the closure of the Ancient Secret Realm, there is no news of everything, which is really a bit worrying. Sun Wu stood up, sighed, and said unhurriedly.
He walked to Su Jianxiu's side, with love and pity in his eyes, reached out and gently patted Su Jianxiu's shoulder twice, his lips moved a few times, but in the end he didn't say anything more.
"Sister Dijiao said that he is still there, just... I just don't know when he will come back, I don't know if he can catch up with the ten-year competition? Uncle Shi, Xiuxiu misses him. Feeling the love and pity that came from Sun Wu's body, Su Jianxiu whispered a few words, and finally couldn't help but pounce into Sun Wu's badness, and sobbed softly.
"This kid makes my family Xiuxiu unhappy. When he comes back, I must teach him a good lesson. Sun Wu hugged Su Jianxiu, as if he was holding a treasure, and carefully patted Su Jianxiu's back with one hand, and scolded straight in his mouth.
"Uncle Shi, you may not be able to beat him. Who knew that as soon as he spoke, Su Jianxiu, who was in his arms, muttered a word.
"I...!" Hearing Su Jianxiu's muttered words, Sun Wu almost didn't have a mouthful of blood spurting out, and his old face was also a rare red. In the end, he still didn't pick up Su Jianxiu's words.
"There's not much time left for Dabi, so you'd better pack up and go back to the cave. You don't have to worry here, your Senior Uncle Murong will also rush over. ”
"Well, Xiuxiu knows!"
Hong Yu, who was sitting on the side, listened to the conversation between Sun Wu and Su Jianxiu, and a line of yin began to appear on his handsome face.
"Xu Lin!"
A low sound, as if the two words shouted out through gritted teeth rippled around Hong Yu.
(PS: Su Jianxiu, do you all remember her? Finally about to write about her and Xu Lin!)
