Chapter 219: Penglai Appears
However, I really only have the last trace of vitality left… So all my senses have become the lowest… I can only see what is in front of me and hear what is in my ears… But Jiang Yi’s laughter, which seemed to penetrate, penetrated my mind like a demonic sound.
This is someone whose spiritual awareness I cannot perceive… I can only say that he makes me instinctively defensive, but I am not completely sure… I don’t know anything about the Dark Seventeen, but when I was training in the cave, Elder Qiu would occasionally tell me some secrets about Company A.
He said that Company A was a company on the surface, but it could also be considered a martial art school. They also had their own heritage.
Therefore, they have a group of their own successors… all of them are top-notch… but unlike the righteousness of the righteous, they may have a greater plot… Therefore, the identities of that group of successors are top secret.
Jiang Yi is a very careful person, otherwise he wouldn’t have been so arrogant as to put that photo in his office. Maybe he put it on his office desk for some other reason… but it’s not something I can explore now that I’m almost out of gas and light.
And I may be the only person in the world who has such a coincidence… I have seen three of them, but if Jiang Yi hadn’t announced his identity on the battlefield today, that photo would have only allowed me to confirm that he was inextricably linked to Company A.
After all, what exactly is the logo of Company A? There is no definite answer in this world. Until now, if Jiang Yi does not reveal his identity, I cannot be sure whether the half letter is A or not.
They are so mysterious… and so powerful that even the intelligence agencies of the righteous are limited in what they can find out.
But what does all this have to do with me? The complete annihilation of something is a long process… Just like the complete disappearance of slavery, the history of the process is also a long and bloody history.
Even if the outcome of this war is reversed, it won’t be enough to bring down Company A… it’s just a relatively important battle in the collision.
But I am certain that there will be others who will follow in our footsteps… it must be!
There didn’t seem to be anything I could do… I watched as the golden light representing Shitu entered the solitary temple… At that moment, the golden light of the solitary temple was so bright that it seemed as if something had finally been completed…
At this moment, the white-clad man who had never moved before finally moved. He was in a strange position, as if he were praying. In Taoism, this is like praying to the heavens for blessings. But what blessings?
I can’t think of anything suspicious that could turn the tide of the battle.
Obviously, everything the mysterious white-clad man did… also aroused Yang Sheng’s vigilance, but he was busy beating the holy drum in his hands, as if each blow was laborious, and he couldn’t pay attention to the white-clad man…
The noise of the battlefield continued… or perhaps it was the final bloom and resistance of life… this time the righteous people killed with great fanfare… and no one could rush up to help Yang Sheng clear away all obstacles, including me, a dying man…
The drumming continued… one, two, three… the holy soul of the white horse… had a strange connection with the light in the sky that was getting brighter and brighter…
My heart is heavy… I promised Lu Shan, how can I keep my promise? After seven sounds, the soul of White Horse will be sacrificed, and I will be forever indebted to Lu Shan…
At this time, Yang Sheng had already struck the fifth holy drum, and on his face… an expression of victory had already appeared… a look of triumph after having walked through so long with a seemingly “sorrowful” heart…
A strange thing happened… At this time, a storm of power came from the mist, enveloping the white-robed man in prayer. The storm of power was holy but also cold, causing the white-robed man to tremble.
What kind of power is that? Even with the remnants of my life force, I can only experience a little of it, and I can feel a powerful force that makes the soul tremble… Even in my prime, I could not compare to this power.
The fifth drumbeat reverberated with a tremor… It seemed that this time the sound of the drum was different… It shook the soul… At this moment, I heard Wu Tian’s voice, which had become shrill with excitement: “It’s coming, it’s coming… it’s coming!”
What is coming? At this moment, Yang Sheng was also trembling with excitement… and finally raised his hand to strike the sixth beat of the sacred drum… At this moment, the soul of Baima finally exploded… emitting a holy power that was extremely holy, as if summoning the golden light that followed the solitary temple…
The fog rolled again, like the waves of the sea… so strong that it even overwhelmed the power that was thrown at the man in white…
At this moment… I heard a loud ‘thud’, a loud thud that was so shocking… but it was also silent… it just shook off layers of sound waves… and then I saw a scene that I may never see again in my life…
A huge shadow with a divine light appeared in the sky behind the lonely temple… From that sky came the roar of a beast as if it had come from ancient times… and with a sense of vicissitudes of life, it suddenly surrounded the entire battlefield!
It was… I only saw a large shadow… so large… as big as a hundred football fields… perhaps even bigger… coming from a distorted space… surrounded by layers of thick fog… I couldn’t see the whole picture clearly, only its lower part… it seemed like solid land, but also like an invisible projection…
“Penglai… This is Penglai! Climb Penglai… and you can go to Kunlun. It, it is also coming… Hurry, hurry and beat the drum… to make Penglai Island stop here.” Wu Tian’s voice, which had become thin again, trembled with excitement…
At this moment, I saw Yang Sheng’s whole body shaking with excitement… his hand raised, about to strike the seventh beat of the sacred drum… and my soul and body had also reached their limits, the last shred of life truly exhausted… the crushing, irreversible crushing was coming…
So I just have to accept my fate? I close my eyes… What should I think about at this moment? After all these sacrifices, the ‘mess’ that still cannot be changed should be a burden for future generations, right? I’m sorry… I’ve made things more difficult for you?
I was waiting for my own complete annihilation… but at this moment… a warm embrace suddenly embraced me from behind… and a steady stream of vitality suddenly enveloped me… allowing my vague will to become clear again…
I didn’t turn my head, but I knew from the familiar smell that it was Ruoxue!
She, she didn’t die? My heart felt a great sense of relief, and I couldn’t help but smile on my face… This is the luckiest thing among all the misfortunes, right? I remembered what she had said before, and I held the words that Ruoyue had said. Maybe I need her…
A bloody hand gently stroked my face… It was probably the hand of Ru Xue, who had climbed up after being seriously injured and going through a lot of hardships… That’s why her hand was like this… In the previous life, she always said that she was heartless to me and always wanted to take revenge… In this life, she still gave me infinite support and comfort when I was in a desperate situation… Is this the life of a woman?
Indeed, love can transcend time and space, even the barrier of reincarnation.
“My life is connected to the life of the life-giving worm… It is almost indestructible and gives me a strong vitality. I didn’t die… I must come to support you, because if I live, I can’t see you die.” Ru Xue’s words softly in my ear… a few words that don’t tell me much.
She became a tomb keeper, locking herself away in the Dragon Tomb, guarding a group of monster bugs… She gained their vitality, and it seemed that life was even more lonely… Isn’t it more painful to be alive sometimes? She seemed to have learned something in that mysterious place… Otherwise, how could she pass on her life to me? Otherwise… Otherwise, how could she pass the lonely time?
We don’t need to know each other too much… but we only need to know that we love each other… I put my hand on her hand that was like snow caressing my face… and gently held it… How many times has this happened? How many times has she supported my life with her life? Even though the evil forces have won at this moment, supporting me is only a short moment… she is still willing to do it!
I just regret that I have such a love in this life, but I have no way to repay it… Even if I have the vitality, it can’t stop the process of my soul breaking… Ruoxue doesn’t know how badly I’m hurt?
But I still want to enjoy this short minute, or maybe just a few dozen seconds… it’s already eternity.
In the snow and fog… she hugged me, and I held her… it was a happy death…
Yang Sheng’s drumming was about to reach the seventh beat… but at that moment, an old, hunched figure suddenly rushed forward… with a huge statue of the powerful Vajra behind him… and rushed toward Yang Sheng…
Lushan? It was Lushan… I was filled with surprise once again… Lushan wasn’t dead either?
“Dong” … originally, Lushan had no way of shaking Yang Sheng… but I don’t know if it was the shadow of the mighty Vajra behind him… that made him rush over and suddenly knock Yang Sheng off balance… Yang Sheng’s original drumming motion was interrupted… and he suddenly took two steps forward!
“Fuck!” Yang Sheng was furious… and kicked Lu Shan… Lu Shan’s figure flew high… but he brought a burst of loud laughter…
Lu Shan fell heavily to the ground… He continued to look up at the sky and laugh, already looking old: “Hahaha… How could I possibly let you sacrifice Baima… Puh…” As he spoke, Lu Shan spat out a mouthful of blood… Then he continued: “After seven drumbeats, Baima’s soul will burn… This holy aura has summoned Penglai… Because my Baima is qualified to go to Kunlun… The soul that was sacrificed by you will be left with a trace of the soul… The soul cannot ascend to Penglai…”
“And…” Lu Shan’s mouth was bleeding… He continued, “And Penglai will not leave without receiving Baima… You must keep Penglai… As long as the holy air does not dissipate, you will be able to keep it… After Baima’s soul is burned, the remaining holiness… How could it be so easily dispersed… Is that right? Hahaha…”
Lu Shan laughed, and said slowly, “How could I allow the soul of Baima to be incomplete? The true holy relic left behind by the Lagan Monastery is not the drum made by Baima… but this solitary temple… Chengyi, did you hear that?”
In the sky… the ancient roar of beasts still echoes throughout the sky… the shadow in the rolling fog… is actually Penglai…
In the snow, she still hugged me tightly… My first soul fragment was about to float out of my body… She could only prolong my life for so long… And I didn’t know how to respond to Lushan.
So, this is how it all turned out?
