Xu Qing looked at the desert in front of him and listened to the words from the Aurora Immortal Lord walking in front.
Maybe it's the waves coming from the body, or maybe it's the meaning contained in these two words.
Unknowingly, ripples called memories appeared in his consciousness.
Wanggu Continent appeared before his eyes, and Wushuang City appeared.
The Wushuang City in memory, the parents in memory.
The beauty in the memory, and the rain of blood that cannot be dissipated.
He thought of his parents.
Maybe it's because he has traveled too many mountains and rivers, maybe because he has experienced too many things, that when Xu Qing recalled his parents now, he found that only their outlines were left.
But the tenderness exuding from the outline is an imprint that cannot be erased by any mountains, rivers, events, or experiences.
Eternally imprinted on his heart.
Just like, people are often not sure who the last person they saw at the moment of death is.
But when you come into this world, you must be surrounded by your parents.
"Mother……"
Xu Qing murmured.
At the same time, the body where his consciousness resides instinctively emerges from the memory of the host at this moment.
In my memory, my mother has also become a vague outline, and I can’t remember clearly...
Just like Xu Qing’s own memories.
The two, at this moment, resonated.
This resonance is like a wave, which stirs up the sea of mind, fluctuates time, spreads on this desert, and rises and falls with it.
became part of the desert.
And the voice of the Aurora Immortal Master also slowly echoed in this desert of time.
"Your mother and I met in our hometown."
"She is my junior sister, your grandfather's seventh disciple."
"Although there were sun and moon in the sky at that time, they were not what we see now."
The Aurora Immortal Lord spoke softly as he moved forward.
His words seemed to be addressed to Xu Qing, and also seemed to be recalling himself.
The breath on my body also echoed with the words, adding more vicissitudes of life and more memories.
"My hometown at that time was actually just one of the countless small worlds in the fifth star ring that were kept captive by the gods."
"Live there, worship the gods, be enslaved by the gods, and live among the woven bones."
"So even the sun and moon above our heads are naturally gods. To be precise, the light of the sun and moon invades all the small worlds."
"And they, the names of the supreme gods spread throughout the whole small world, are rales and dims."
"Those years were painful, but because of your mother's existence, they were also happy for me."
The Aurora Fairy's voice was gentle and murmuring.
Xu Qing followed behind and listened silently.
He knew that at this moment, all the Aurora Immortal Master needed was to listen.
"We practiced together, we grew up together, and then we met Jiu'an."
The Aurora Immortal Lord shook his head, and the feeling of reminiscence in his body became even stronger.
"The personality of Jiu'an at that time has not changed much from that of today. He likes silence, observation, and recording."
"Your mother called him the Great Historian. He agreed with this title very much, so he called himself the Historian for many years after that."
"Silly."
Aurora chuckled.
"Just like that, the years passed..."
"You know what happened next from the historical books."
"In the last years of the Gods' Chronicles, under the leadership of your grandfather, the entire small world of the fifth star ring launched a war of rise against the gods."
"That battle was extremely brutal..."
"And you were also born during those years, but your mother and I didn't want you to see the world in chaos, so we sealed you."
"And we have agreed that when the war ends and this world becomes a better place, I will release your seal and let the world you see for the first time be gorgeous, peaceful and without gods."
"Let you live in beauty."
The sound of the aurora echoes in the desert of time.
It's just that the voice was slowly tainted with sadness in the memory.
"And that war that lasted for many, many years finally ended. As monks, we rose completely and suppressed the originally aloof gods."
"The sun and moon in the sky have also fallen away, replacing the yin and yang of our Tao."
"But... there is always a figure missing from my side."
"Your mother died."
Xu Qing listened silently.
It was obviously someone else's story, but whether it was the waves in this body or the resonance in his consciousness, Xu Qing could feel the sadness from the host and Aurora.
"And I also fell into a deep sleep for some special reasons."
"This sleep lasts ten thousand years."
"When I wake up, nothing can be changed, and the constitution of time and space will eventually reach its ultimate..."
"Three thousand three hundred and thirty-three years, this is the time and space limit of all the star rings in this universe."
"So, when we sealed you, it was me and your mother, and when we unsealed you, it was only me."
A low sound spread across the sky and the earth, and the Aurora's footsteps paused.
A sea of flowers caught Xu Qing's eyes.
It was a dreamlike sea, with countless colorful orchids blooming in the desert.
Incomparably beautiful.
It is hard to imagine that there are such a sea of orchids in the desert.
At least, when Xu Qing came to this desert one day in the future, he had not seen it.
It seems that this is a secret hidden deep in the desert.
Looking at it, you can see that these orchids have various wonderful shapes and colors, some are like dancing butterflies, and some are like cranes spreading their wings, and each one exudes a unique fragrance.
Especially at this moment, with the arrival of Xu Qing and the Aurora Fairy, it seems like sunlight is shining through the sparse clouds on the sea of orchids, and the golden light is diffused, unknowingly adding a bit of mystery and romance to this sea of flowers.
There is also a breeze blowing, and the sea of flowers is swaying.
Like a dream.
Vaguely, it seemed that there was a fairy, staring at the father and son in the sea of flowers.
There was a soft murmur and a gentle smile.
So the Aurora Fairy Master looked at the sea of flowers and the fairy in his memory, and also smiled.
Smiling, he walked to the edge of the sea of flowers, squatted there, and took out some seeds from his arms.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! At this moment, he is not the powerful future lord of the fifth star ring, nor the Lord of Ten Thousand Immortals with astonishing cultivation. He is just a man immersed in the death of his wife.
Ordinary people in memory.
Here, he planted those seeds in the desert.
They will definitely bloom.
"Your mother's name has the word "lan" in it, and she also prefers fairy orchids."
"This kind of flower cannot be contaminated with the breath of the gods, otherwise it will wither quickly... But this kind of flower is obviously omnipresent in our small world, but it has never disappeared."
"Even if it wilts, it will bloom again."
"So we once dreamed that when the war was over and everything became beautiful, we would find a place to plant fairy orchids so that they would become a sea and bloom all year round."
"Over the years, every time I come here, I plant some."
"Gradually, it did become a sea."
Aurora Immortal Lord smiled and murmured, gently stroking the place where the seeds were buried with his palm.
Then, he sat aside, looking at the sea of flowers, and stopped talking.
But the smile on his face became more and more gentle.
Xu Qing looked at all this, walked silently to the Aurora Immortal Lord, sat down, and accompanied him to look at the sea of flowers.
Time passes slowly.
When the sunset appeared on the horizon, the Aurora Fairy spoke softly.
"You have grown up and are getting married."
"In the future, when I am free, you must remember to come here every year and plant orchids for your mother."
"Let there always be a sea of flowers here."
Xu Qing felt complicated.
He knew that one month later, not only the Aurora Immortal Lord in front of him would die, but also the host he was inhabiting.
Therefore, in this sea of orchids, there will no longer be any orchids in the future.
Perhaps this was the reason why he did not see any sea of flowers despite walking through the desert that time.
This sea of flowers has long withered in the years.
But he still nodded.
Ji Guang smiled, raised his hand rarely, and touched Xu Qing's head.
"You have to remember one thing..."
"Your parents cannot accompany you throughout your life, and your children cannot always be by your side. Only your Taoist companion... is the only person who can accompany you throughout your life."
"So, protect her and don't be like me..."
"Lost my love."
Saying that, Ji Guang stood up and looked at Xu Qing.
"Do you still remember the story I told you about the dark night when you were a child?"
Xu Qing nodded and spoke softly.
"When night falls, don't go see you."
This sentence is deeply engraved in the memory of this Aurora young master.
In his memory, Immortal Aurora told him this more than once.
This reminded Xu Qing of the reflection under the ice lake...
And throughout my memory, every time the Aurora Fairy appeared, it was always dawn.
Aurora smiled and nodded, looking at the sunset that was about to dissipate on the horizon.
"It's getting dark, let's go back."
As he spoke, Aurora took a step forward and fell.
The world is blurry.
The next moment, the desert is no longer there and the sea of flowers is no more.
Xu Qing's figure appeared in Shaoji Palace, exactly the same as the place he left before.
It's as if the experience along the way is just an illusion.
As for the Aurora Immortal Lord, he is no longer there.
Only the sky...
When Xu Qing left before, it was at dawn.
And now, it's the moment when darkness falls.
Night covers the earth.
The bright moon rises into the sky.
…
At this moment, under the Immortal Palace, in a mysterious cave.
The lights are bright.
The figure of the Aurora Immortal Lord is walking forward step by step.
But wherever he passed, the lights behind him were extinguished one by one.
And as the darkness of the outside world fell, the original white clothes on his body were slowly invaded by black, until they were completely rendered into a black robe.
The gentleness on his face was replaced by ferocity and evil.
His body was slightly trembling, but his steps were still steady.
Finally, step by step, we walked into the depths of the cave.
Step into a closed cell.
The moment he entered, iron chains composed of countless runes appeared out of thin air, wrapping around his whole body, continuously blessing and sealing him.
And the light, at this moment, completely disappeared and fell into darkness.
In this extremely dark space, only low groans and the sound of violent pulling of iron chains continued to echo.
