The ancient spell of the mirror spirit rang in my ears, and I felt the warm breath coming from the ancient mirror on my body. Not far away, the patriarch of the goddess's surviving family looked at me with a dull expression, but from the depths of his eyes, there seemed to be something...
Looking forward to it. On the stone platform beside her, Ru Yuan was lying quietly, her skin as white as snow was particularly conspicuous in this dim world.
The mirror spirit was by my side, and the spell seemed very long, but gradually I felt that my body became very light, and the surrounding scene gradually blurred, or became darker. I seemed to have left the ground, but on the opposite side
But the influence of the patriarch didn't seem to move downwards. Suddenly, I felt dizzy, and my eyes suddenly went black. For a flash, the whole world seemed to be turned upside down. Just as I was trying to adjust to the strange feeling in my body, I saw something in front of me.
Suddenly it came on, and the dazzling light overwhelmed me. I quickly closed my eyes, but bitter tears still flowed out. When I slowly opened my eyes again, I realized that I had returned to the restricted area of Ganoderma lucidum. And the dazzling light just now
The light is nothing more than a light that is not very bright in the restricted area of Ganoderma lucidum.
I suddenly had a question, or I already had an answer, but I still asked the mirror spirit next to me:
"The surviving descendants of the Goddess have been living in darkness for generations. If they really come out, will their eyes be able to adapt to the light here? Not to mention the human world, even the light in this forbidden area of Ganoderma lucidum is probably nothing to them.
Extremely dangerous.”
As soon as this question came out, I saw a lot of sadness in Jingling's expression, which confirmed my guess.
"Their ancestors made a promise to the gods, but the descendants want to break their promises. You must know that people's destiny is in the hands of the gods. If you want to break through the imprisonment of this generation, you will have to pay a heavy price. Leaving the tomb of the goddess,
They have regained their freedom, but without the protection of God, this generation can only live in darkness forever. Compared with the torture of eternal imprisonment, this is considered the mercy of God to them."
God’s mercy? I couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
In the hundreds of years I have experienced, I seem to understand a truth. In the complicated six realms, it seems that as long as the power is strong enough, you can decide and control everything, even if it is just for your own selfish desires and bring disaster to all living beings. Not to mention
The Demon Realm uses power as the standard to measure everything. Wasn't even the Heavenly Book of the God Realm created by an ancient god who was powerful enough? The Heavenly Book determines the fate of such spiritually powerful creatures as the gods, demons and monsters, and the humble
But the mortals are at the mercy of the gods, and the ghosts and spirits in the isolated underworld are even more miserable. They are reincarnated and reborn in the sea of purgatory fire. If they are not careful, they will be wiped out, and their fate is decided by Pluto alone.
Why can’t we all have the slightest bit of freedom of choice if we are both living beings? The process is inherently arduous, but even the outcome is already determined. So, blaming everything on fate, indulging selfish desires, living in chaos, feeling sad in the spring and sad in the autumn, it seems
All reasonable.
I was suddenly very curious about what was written in the book that day, and was it possible to change the so-called destined fate?
And I also really want to know, what kind of fate am I carrying? What is the purpose of the god who created me? What happened to the tragedy that happened to my mother? What is the promise I made?
How to fulfill it?
Every time this happens, as long as I think of my mother and that time in the Depressed Forest, my thoughts are completely confused. I can't connect every plot rationally. I originally thought that the purpose of my survival was very simple, but I didn't expect that at this time, I had already
I can't help myself. There are so many unsolved mysteries that seem to be related to me. Why can't I just be a monster that will never leave the forest of gloom? Why do I have to encounter this one after another?
accident?
Too many questions began to bother me endlessly. When my thoughts were complicated, the mirror spirit sighed deeply and brought my consciousness back again.
"Why bother your mind? Past and present lives, reincarnation and cause and effect, one day you will understand. Compared with others, you are lucky. Now we still need to find Yaizhen as soon as possible. After all, breaking the seal cannot be accomplished in one day, but I don't have much left.
I can no longer control the goddess’ resentment.”
I looked at her meaningfully, but was speechless, and just walked silently towards the entrance of the Ganoderma Forbidden Zone.
——
"Sad, why are you here?"
Before he could even reach the stone monument, the thick and thrilling voice of Yaizhen could be heard. Then, the huge and blurry image in front of him gradually became clear, and the majestic beast appeared again, with its indestructible armor shining brightly.
It was daunting. What was even more terrifying was the pair of eyes that were burning like fire with infinite majesty and awe-inspiring anger. They were staring at me, which immediately made me feel weak at my feet and shaky all over, just because I couldn't forget what happened before.
The overbearing and powerful power of the True Dragon's Fury instantly makes people lose their ability to resist.
The "Beisu" in Yaizhen's mouth should be the name of Kunlun Jingjingling. I suddenly realized that this was the first time I heard this name, and in an instant, the sadness in this name penetrated my heart.
Whole body. I have seen through the cause and effect of my previous life, but I can't change it. What should I do except lament?
"It's because of the goddess's resentment, and it's also for the goddess's surviving family."
He heard Yaizhen roaring angrily, and the anger in his eyes seemed to be a little more intense. The surrounding vegetation was also frightened and trembled.
"You actually let outsiders know the secrets of the Gods!"
"Destiny is determined by her, and it is beyond our control. You should have guessed a thing or two when she arrived here." Jing Ling, however, did not seem to be afraid, and just said to Yaizhen calmly.
But at this moment, in the midst of Yaizhen's rage, there was also a trace of helplessness. I could vaguely guess something in my heart, but I couldn't express it in words.
"Please also remember the kindness of God Shen Nong to all living beings. The most important thing at this time is to avoid a catastrophe, so that no more living beings need to sacrifice their lives in vain."
"Hmph! Do you want to intercede for the nine-tailed fox clan that violated the majesty of the goddess?"
"You also know a thing or two about the grudges here. Regarding their origin, it is not all the fault of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan."
"Hmph! Even so, the majesty of the gods cannot be violated! A mere demon clan is so bold. If the goddess was still here, I'm afraid they would have been exterminated long ago!" Yaizhen seemed to still be angry and unwilling to give in.
"As the daughter of the ancient god Shennong, she was so unreasonable and insisted on her own way. No wonder she fell into the devil's path after her death." I don't know why, but I feel very angry at Yajue for infinitely promoting the status of the gods. What about the gods?
Can the gods do whatever they want without regard to other living beings?
"You are seeking death!" Yazui roared angrily. In an instant, the temperature of the ground beneath our feet suddenly increased. We saw the front legs of the beast raised high, as if the real dragon's wrath was about to explode.
"Calm down! Now, with my power, I cannot maintain the barrier for a long time. If the resentment of the goddess is allowed to overflow, I am afraid it will bring about an apocalyptic catastrophe." Beisu said loudly to Yaizhen. She didn't know when she had moved to me.
in front of you.
Just before the scorching flames were about to explode, the temperature of the ground dropped. Yaizhen let out a deep breath and landed heavily on the ground with his feet.
"I have been guarding here for more than three thousand years. Do I really want to fail in my promise to my lord Shennong now?" Yazui said to himself, and finally let out a long sigh.
"Now that the matter has come to this, please thank God Shen Nong for his compassion and let the creatures in this Ganoderma forbidden area be liberated. As for the resentment, maybe only you and I can forcefully reset the seal again."
"That's it! The goddess's surviving family can still leave, but the nine-tailed demon fox clan has made a big mistake, and the clan leader is even more ambitious. If they are allowed to leave, it may cause serious trouble."
"That's why I'm here. Please allow me three days, and I will personally go to the Nine-tailed Fox Clan to stop it. I hope it's not too late."
"Hmph! Sad Su, your kindness to the demon clan may also cause serious trouble."
"In the past, the goddesses had some friendship with the saints of the demon world. Not all demons are treacherous and evil. All living beings have a destiny, so why bother to exterminate them all?"
"Hmph! If it hadn't been like this, I would have wiped out all the nine-tailed demon foxes!" Yazui said bitterly, and then the huge figure slowly disappeared.
I was thoughtful, but because my thoughts were too messy, I didn’t know what I was thinking about.
"It's useless to think too much, let's go to the Nine-tailed Fox Clan's stronghold."
Sadsu still saw through me with one glance.
After a moment of silence, we set off towards the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan's stronghold.
After passing the Abyss of Thoughts, I once again entered the forest where the Thousand Fox Barrier had been set up before, but this time I did not enter the illusion. Only then did I realize that the forest was not deep, and in less than a quarter of an hour, it was right before my eyes.
It has opened up and then entered the stone path.
When she came to the stone houses where the nine-tailed fox tribe lived again, Su Su silently stepped forward and gently touched the black plant that emerged from a crack in the stone, and sighed again.
I brought Beisu to the stone house where the patriarch was, and Zisang came out.
"Girl, this is...where is that girl Ruyuan? Why didn't she come back with you? Have you found the source of the demonic energy? Who is... behind you?" Zisang looked very wary and a little worried.
"We have found the source of the demonic energy, but due to fate..." I really don't know where to start.
"What's wrong, girl?" Zisang immediately became anxious, and his beautiful forehead wrinkled slightly.
"Are you the fortune teller of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan?" Sadsu didn't seem to be affected by Zisang's actions.
"Who are you?" Zisang became more and more alert. From his eyes, I seemed to feel a hint of murderous intent.
"I am the spirit of Kunlun Mirror, Besui."
"Why here?"
"To prevent the leader of your clan from absorbing demonic energy."
"presumptuous!"
Zi Sang lost his patience in an instant. He waved his long sleeve and a fierce spiritual power rushed towards Beisu instantly. Although it was not a killing move, it was very fast and violent. I subconsciously stepped aside, but I saw that Beisu was still there.
Without moving, she focused her eyes and slowly raised her right hand, but it didn't seem to slow down the sharp spiritual power at all. As soon as she blocked it, she saw a ray of light flashing past her palm, and the spiritual power
Has turned into nothing.
"The diviners of all generations are well versed in the top secrets of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan, and are responsible for assisting the clan leader to avoid and resist important disasters for the Nine-tailed Fox Clan. Are you going to allow this clan leader to degenerate into a demon? If that's true.
, the Nine-tailed Fox Clan will eventually face the disaster of annihilation.”
"If it wasn't for that Yazhen who forcibly trapped our clan here, why would the clan leader take such a trick?"
"You don't hesitate to practice forbidden arts in an attempt to use the power of demonic energy to break the barrier of Yaizhen? It's too naive. Do you know why the nine-tailed fox clan lists the practice of demonic energy as a forbidden art? It's just because the elders in the clan don't
Are you ashamed of this kind of behavior? As a diviner, not only did you not stop it, but you turned a blind eye. Do you know what this will bring to the Nine-tailed Fox Clan?"
"Why don't I know the dangers here? But if our clan is trapped here for a long time and the clan members are corroded by the demonic energy, then we will also face the disaster of annihilation! The clan leader would rather sacrifice himself to preserve the integrity of the clan. If unfortunately he is attacked by the demonic energy in the future,
If it backfires, he will kill himself to avoid a massacre and catastrophe."
"Do you really think that after being completely eroded by the demonic energy, he can still be willing to commit suicide? Have you forgotten the tragic image of the Qingqiu Kingdom's destruction? If it weren't for the goddess's jade hairpin, you, the Nine-tailed Fox Clan, would have been killed long ago.
It no longer exists.”
Zisang seemed a little excited, but his sad responses were always calm and indifferent, as if he had already seen through the outcome of everything. But at this moment, the voice of the patriarch came from the grotto.
"Zisang, please ask them to come in and talk. They will come sooner or later."
Zisang looked at us with his slightly lighter and extremely deep eyes, but he still stepped aside, revealing the door of the grotto behind him.
Entering the hall, it was still splendid. The patriarch's long hair reached the ground and he was sitting on the throne. I bowed politely to him. Sadu stood behind me, and Zisang also came in with us. He silently
He walked up to the clan leader and looked at us from a distance.
"Kunlun Mirror Spirit can see through the past and present life... It's a pity, but it can't escape the control of fate." The leader of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan sighed leisurely, as if talking to himself, but also as a mockery.
"Although I cannot control fate, I hope that people in the world will not despise fate."
"You are just a mirror spirit, but you want to challenge the decision of heaven? Don't you know that your false compassion is just a joke that passes by the gods."
"It's just that my practice is shallow and I can't understand the changes in this world. I just follow my heart, regardless of the results."
The patriarch couldn't help but burst into laughter. He stood up from the throne slowly, walked towards us step by step, and said word by word:
"What a good excuse! In the past, if the ancestor of the demon hunter pretended to be in despair and took refuge in our Nine-tailed Fox Clan of Qingqiu Country, and married my eldest sister, pretending to be affectionate, but when the eldest sister was about to give birth, the nine-tailed fox was harmed.
The Fox clan is almost exterminated! Now, our clan is trapped here again, and if things go on like this, we will also suffer the disaster of annihilation! I am dissatisfied in my heart and insist on fighting that fate to the end, so is this just my heart?"
"I know that as the leader of the clan, you will sacrifice everything for your clan. However, have you really forgotten the real reason for the tragedy of genocide in Qingqiu? Although you are wrong, your father's ambition to swallow up the world is
But it is also obvious. If not, how could that mortal easily shake the foundation of your nine-tailed demon fox clan? Your father practiced demonic energy without authorization to increase his cultivation level, and happened to be used by Ruo, which eventually made your father lose himself and become a demon.
You have become a bloodthirsty monster that is neither a demon, nor a god, nor a demon. If you had not obtained the jade hairpin, I am afraid that even the lives of the remaining nine-tailed fox tribe would have been left in Qingqiu.
"The Qingqiu Kingdom was destroyed because the entanglements of cause and effect were too complicated, and the grudges and grudges could not be sorted out even if they had been entangled for thousands of years. Now that you have destroyed the demon-catching clan in a rage, do you know the relationship between the demon-catching clan and Wushan?
The origin of the goddess? Right or wrong, why bother with your inner obsessions?"
"So what? The only thing I want to do now is to do everything possible to send the people out of this dark and imprisoned place. Even if I have to pay a heavy price for this, I am willing to do so. My nine-tailed fox clan has a lot of misfortunes, and all kinds of encounters are terrible.
It’s our clan’s fault, why can’t there be a place for us?”
"Have you ever thought about what would happen if you couldn't control the demonic energy in your body?"
"I have ordered Zi Sang to lay out the Ten Thousand Fox Blood Formation. If that day comes, I won't be able to control it myself, but I won't be able to escape death!"
"Even so, you don't know that the power of this demonic energy is not as simple as you imagine. We have advised Yaizhen to withdraw from the barrier, and we also hope that the clan leader will not get trapped in it again. If the day comes when it becomes uncontrollable, I'm afraid it will be too late.
That’s it.”
I listened to their conversation and secretly connected the threads, but just thinking about it superficially made me feel that it was complicated. After all, it may have been nearly a thousand years of grudges. How easy is it to sort them out? But, once,
I heard someone in the Yuyu Forest mention the Qingqiu Homeland. It was indeed a picturesque place with beautiful bells and souls. The Nine-Tailed Fox Clan did not know how much they paid to find this paradise, but then the Qingqiu Country was found.
It was destroyed overnight, and even that space no longer existed. It seems that everything the Nine-tailed Fox Clan has experienced will only be more tragic than imagined.
Zisang also listened quietly, but his brows only furrowed tighter and tighter, as if he didn't want to accept this fact, but he had no choice but to do so.
"Hahaha!! The vengeance will be retaliated! Haven't you heard? How could it let go of my nine-tailed fox clan so easily? Even if he removes the barrier, our clan will inevitably be massacred! How can I see all my clansmen?
Suffer this calamity!"
Inadvertently, I noticed something subtle and strange on the face of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan leader, and immediately, his tone was completely different from before.
"Clan leader..." Zi Sang seemed to have noticed something on the side and muttered softly.
"Hey...it seems we are still late." Sad Su sighed.
I also have a vague feeling that the leader of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan may have fallen into a demonic barrier. But at this moment, if he forcibly absorbs the demonic energy, then the goddess's surviving family will still have a fate...
"Clan leader! Don't you care about Ru Yuan's safety?"
"Yuan'er... what did you do to her?" The Nine-tailed Fox Clan leader seemed to be a little angry. He didn't know when he had moved in front of Beisu, glaring at her and asked sternly.
"Don't worry, Patriarch. She is currently in front of the goddess. We need to ask her for a favor. We will ensure that she is safe and sound in the future."
"You! You actually used Yuan'er to threaten me! And you!" He suddenly turned to my side, which really caught me off guard. "Don't you claim to be her friend? You actually collaborated with these hypocritical things to harm her.
!”
I was instantly forced to take a step back by the violent aura on the clan leader's body. The only thing left in front of me was the clan leader's eyes that had begun to turn red, and the aura on his body also completely changed, becoming full of murderous intent.
I was speechless for a moment, only paying attention to the sudden changes in his body, as if an extremely powerful force was about to burst out of his body, which made people shudder.
"Clan leader! Pay attention! Don't get angry!" Zi Sang stepped forward and stood in front of Beisu and me.
