Chapter 203: Chengyi, it’s time
The final collision has finally begun… The top-level power of the cultivators here, the old headmaster and Jenny, have finally begun to enter the formation…
Wu Tian has also returned to his position… He will combine the power of all the cultivators present… This is the final battle of the great war…
In the midst of the snow and wind, Yang Sheng’s tambourine sounded. I felt the entire mountain behind me tremble slightly. The chanting of the white horse became more urgent. When it trembled to the extreme, I seemed to hear a ‘thunder’ sound coming from the sky, and an inexplicable power erupted behind me!
I can’t say what kind of power it is… I just feel that my whole soul is trembling… yearning, worshiping… I can’t help but turn around.
What I saw was the same mountain slope… but the whole atmosphere of the once dilapidated, lonely temple had suddenly changed… it had become incredibly sacred, like the holiest of holy places… if that wasn’t enough to surprise me, it was after all a place where the great masters had once meditated…
The most important thing is that it is clearly in front of me, on that not-so-high hill… but it feels so far away… so far away that I can’t seem to touch it! This feeling is so abstract… but the space around that lonely temple is slightly distorted, but it is a real scene that I see in my eyes.
It’s like filming a desert scene with rising steam.
“When Yang Sheng stops playing the drum, you rush up… rush up recklessly! Rush into the solitary temple and snatch the drum from Yang Sheng’s hands… If nothing can stop you, the only way left is to kill Yang Sheng. If you can’t do it in time, then we’ll have no choice but to take the last resort.” At this moment, the old master passed by me and suddenly whispered in my ear.
So, this is what I have to do? Rush into the temple regardless of the consequences, but if I rush in early, what am I going to do? The old master didn’t say… is it waiting for Yang Sheng to take the drum from him?
If I can’t stop him, I’ll have to kill Yang Sheng… Can I kill Yang Sheng with my own power? Is this the final battle between him and me?
The final result… if the time comes, then… then it will be a indiscriminate attack, a sacrifice of death, rather than letting Yang Sheng succeed.
Thinking about this, I felt a bit bitter. Looking at the heroic people in the battlefield, I felt that their lives depended on me… I couldn’t help but turn around and looked at the old master’s back and asked, “What is the time?”
The old head stopped, and Jenny looked at me and sighed, continuing to walk… Then I saw the old head looking at me and solemnly said, “As I said before, because of Wu Tian’s joining, the balance between the evil and the righteous has tilted. Even if there is the help of the heavenly punishment formation… our strength is still inferior to the evil side’s… we are losing in terms of the number of top-level cultivators, and we are missing a cultivator like Wu Tian here… so, you understand, when the time comes that we can’t hold on anymore, then it’s time to go.”
The old master’s voice was very calm. Even if he admitted that the righteous side was inferior to the evil side in terms of strength, he also admitted it very lightly. He could be inferior in strength, but he could never fail.
If there were one less cultivator like Wu Tian… if my master, Old Li, were there… I would feel a little resentment in my heart… but the truth is, my master only left behind a remnant soul, and he himself is not even there…
I sighed to myself at the thought… but Jenny’s voice came floating over: “Old Master, you have schemed and calculated to the utmost, and have achieved a delicate balance on the battlefield for us! On Yang Sheng’s side, that mysterious No. 2 is too powerful, and we have sacrificed three elders of the Life and Destiny School… to bring the battle to an end. Everything else depends on you, Chengyi.”
“Mm.” In the wind, I softly agreed.
“If I see him, I’ll still be alive… let him come and see me.” Jenny suddenly turned her head and smiled… her eyes were filled with deep memories. At this moment, Jenny wasn’t thinking about life or death, but about my master.
I didn’t know how to respond, so I just nodded gently… How could I see my master?
But at this moment, I heard the drumming suddenly stop… I turned around and saw Yang Sheng, who was playing the drum, suddenly open his eyes…
Master Hui, who was resting with two warriors on the battlefield, suddenly stood up. He didn’t turn around, but shouted at me, “Chengyi, get ready to charge!”
“Chengyi, get ready…”
“Chengyi, get ready…”
At this moment, I heard many such voices in my ears like thunder… I found that the source of the voices was all my elders… Master, uncle, Grandma Ling Qing, and even Wu Liyu…
“Charge! Charge! Where to?” Yang Sheng suddenly stood up from the altar and raised his hand… I suddenly heard the howling of countless wolves… and the cry of a hawk from afar… behind the crowd, a group of lamas suddenly appeared. I suddenly remembered the Lagan Monastery and remembered that they were originally the best at driving all kinds of animals, right?
I even thought of the wolf of Manjuba… What I thought of came true. From afar, I saw the figure of Manjuba. Next to him was his huge wolf, which looked like a calf.
Then I saw the distant horizon, a dark mass… It was the wolves!
In the sky… I could already see a dozen eagles flying towards us… One of them was huge and was leading the pack. Even though there was still some distance to go, I knew it was coming for me…
While talking, Yang Sheng suddenly laughed… and then he rushed towards us with the sacred drum in his hand… He was very fast, and when he moved, he was like a cannonball…
At this time, the voices of the people chanting around the sad tears of the Vajra suddenly rose. I only heard Master Hui shout, “Stop him and buy time for Chengyi!”
At the same time, Master Wu Tian shouted, “Follow me…”
Uncle Chen suddenly took a very delicate clay sculpture… and walked forward… and the huge bronze lamp, which had almost gone out, suddenly became extremely bright at this time.
Grandma Ling Qing whispered, “It’s time…” Then I saw her lead the sorcerers of the Wugu lineage, and with a wave of her hand… a dark tide of insects rose, among which a few golden light spots were particularly eye-catching… all releasing their own golden silkworm curses…
“If I had known that the evil monks of the Lagan Temple would come out in full force, how could I not have been prepared?” At this time, a strange old man who had done nothing on the battlefield suddenly shouted hoarsely… Then he suddenly let out a long whistle…
Then I heard a myriad of rustling sounds coming from behind the hill… accompanied by a melodious but strange bamboo flute sound… Then I saw a huge snake crawling out from behind the hill. On the body of the huge snake, there was a man in a clean and handsome old hemp robe, standing steadily. A small snake was coiled on his shoulder, a remarkable little snake—the Chinese cobra!
Xiao Ding… Xiao Ding has come, hiding behind this hill all along!
Not only Ding… behind Ding, another giant snake swam out… a woman with a beautiful face, but with a sharp and decisive look, wearing a tight black dress with gold embroidery, stood on the giant snake… what is this?
I don’t know, but I clearly saw Xiaoding looking at her and smiling shyly…
And many more men and women came out…
“The entire line of beast masters of the righteous way has basically come out in full force.” The old man who spoke suddenly smiled… and then he took out a bamboo flute and began to play it silently… I saw a giant snake on the slope of the solitary temple, with a color similar to the boulders, swimming down…
This reminded me of the ancestors in the cave… Are they here too? The answer is very clear. With the help of the Snow Mountain clan… behind Ding, several giant snakes were swimming. If they weren’t the ancestors in the cave, then who were they?
At this moment, with a loud bang, I saw the Sad Tears Vajra suddenly shatter… and finally turn into a golden stream of light, heading straight for Master Hui!
At this time, Yang Sheng, who had rushed out, suddenly stopped in the snowstorm, with an inexplicable look on his face, raised the sacred drum in his hand, and then slammed it down with the other hand.
“Bang” was another drum sound… Was this the final drum sound?
At this time, Grandma Ling Qing suddenly said, “Ru Xue, Ru Yue, why aren’t you going over there?”
“Grandma?” Ruoyue’s eyes were filled with tears… Ruoxue was as quiet as a goddess in the snow, and finally rested her head gently on Lingqing’s shoulder, hugged her lightly, and then pulled Ruoyue, who was still crying, towards me…
At the same time that the tears of the Vajra were shattered, all the people chanting around the Vajra spewed out a mouthful of blood… It was like a bloody rain falling from the sky, and one by one they fell in this bloody rain.
Sun Qiang let out a cry of pain, like a wounded lone wolf… all the members of the same lineage as him should have been sacrificed… Sun Qiang turned his head and looked at me with tears in his eyes, and said, “Brother, I’m here…”
At this moment, the sky behind him was shining brightly… almost covering the originally dark sky…
The old headmaster’s calm voice came: “Chengyi, it’s time.”
