Chapter 214: The final road
At that moment, the sky was bright red, accompanied by bursts of heat, causing the snow falling from the sky to turn directly into rain. Then the rain was evaporated and turned into steam similar to fog.
Is this a strange phenomenon that is hard to come by for thousands of years? While heavy snow is still falling on the other side, this side is filled with fog. Amidst the layers of steam, a fiery figure accompanied by a clear and melodious sound rises up into the sky…
It was the Red Phoenix!
Is there really such a thing? I became a little dazed… I have been a bystander in this battle all the way, and a bystander who must not stop no matter how sad or upset I am.
I should have stopped and taken a rest after seeing so much, according to my previous personality… But every time someone I love leaves, I keep on rushing forward…
They used their lives to burst into the last splendor… Just like the Suzaku at this moment, I knew that it was Tao Bai… I remembered the scene I saw in Shouhu Village… the strange red light that appeared on the sleeping Tao Bai, like a feather-like texture…
It was finally confirmed that he had a great relationship with the ancient legendary bird, the red bird.
“Chengyi, the Lagan Temple hides a huge secret and heritage… including a red bird feather, the heir to which is Xiaobai…” At this time, Lushan’s body was flowing with layers of pale golden light… and he suddenly spoke to me.
I was crawling while looking at Lushan. He looked at Tao Bai, whose figure was indistinct in the fog, with a calm and gentle expression. He also looked at the sacred drum from afar!
It seemed like it was very difficult to strike the sacred drum… Yang Sheng’s hand was raised high, and he hesitated to strike the second blow.
I don’t know if we can move forward after this second strike… under such great pressure.
“I have to protect Xiaobai, otherwise the flames of the Vermilion Bird will burn him to death… he won’t last long. Chengyi, protecting him is my battle… and Baima, please take care of him!” Lu Shan looked at me and smiled.
The wind blew away the fog, and the fog gathered again… it was as if it had taken Lu Shan away in an instant.
I could only turn and look… I couldn’t stay. Every step was now a matter of life and death… How could I bear it, and how could I dare to stay?
There is less than 20 meters to go… It is so difficult, and I am crawling… My robe is already torn, and my fingertips and knees… are also very painful from scraping against the sharp stones… But how can I cover up my pain?
Did Baima ask me to do it? My face is now completely dry and tight… It must be the blood that has coagulated… Under the starry sky, Lushan and I had a conversation… In the end, he couldn’t make it to the end, and he could only leave it to me… It’s another burden. How can I not let you down? Lushan…
“Sister, Qiangzi asked us to help him with all our might…” At this time, Yueyu spoke.
In the mist, I couldn’t see her expression clearly, only a vague figure… I couldn’t see Ru Xue’s expression or figure clearly either… but I could hear Ru Xue’s soft “hmm”
The golden light flowing from Lushan was mixed with a pleasant, flourishing atmosphere… It had already begun to flow, rushing towards Taobai…
And Qiangzi seemed to have been stimulated by the cry of the Vermilion Bird… and stopped being crazy at this moment… and seemed to have regained his clarity…
“I only have less than a minute, but is that enough for you to die?” Qiangzi’s voice was calm and cold, as if it came from hell… but his eyes were still the familiar Qiangzi. He had suppressed the ferocious Yulong?
But, only one minute? I looked at Qiangzi’s pale face… his eyes, which could not shed tears, and even blood, were numb… but his heart still ached!
Does he have some secret method? He can’t use it unless he has no other choice… Is this the only thing that can happen after he uses it?
At this moment, the red shadow in the sky suddenly contracted… and suddenly entered the body of a person… and the fog was suddenly dispersed by the snow!
A person with a red glow all over his body appeared on the hillside.
“Haha…” His eyes were filled with a certain kind of condescending scrutiny, and his mouth curled in a sneer… The only thing was that he looked at Qiangzi with a kind of understanding… He said to Qiangzi, “Together.”
This Tao Bai is very strange… arrogant, wild… evil but not evil… I’ve only seen him once before, at the Lake of a Thousand Ghosts!
But that was the state of his soul… now it should be in full bloom, right?
Lushan didn’t say much to me… he just said that the flames would burn Tao Bai to death… there is no power in this world that can be inherited out of thin air without any price. I understand this!
However, can Lushan’s guardian… hold out? If he can’t, what will happen to Tao Bai? Has he already used a move that requires sacrifice, just like Qiangzi?
In the midst of the heavy snow, Tao Bai’s white robe had disappeared from the upper half of his body… and only half of his pants remained on the lower half… but the person in the red light was full of a kind of evil beauty… the pattern of the red feathers rubbing against each other, this was the first time I had seen it in its entirety… but I vaguely seemed to know that this was also the last time…
When Tao Bai said “together,” the golden light flowing from Lushan instantly covered him. Sun Qiang responded with a knowing smile, and the two of them crashed into Yang Sheng like two shooting stars.
This time, it was the biggest crisis Yang Sheng had encountered since he started fighting. He had no choice but to hastily put away the sacred drum and once again charge forward!
This is a battle that no one else can interfere with… Three figures crisscrossed in the air and on the ground… making it impossible to capture their movements…
I could only feel that Yang Sheng was being overwhelmed at this time… being chased by Qiangzi and Taobai… he was barely able to withstand it…
Tao Bai’s red light was terrifying… I saw Yang Sheng having to surround himself with the river of fate… to barely resist…
During this fight, Lu Shan maintained the same posture and expression. He looked at Tao Bai with a gentle and relieved smile on his face. It was as if time was flowing very quickly on him, much faster than when Xiao Chengqian cast his spell. It was almost a minute before he had become an unusually old man.
The breath of life that makes one feel so happy and prosperous… is vitality…
Lu Shan… what kind of battle of protection is this?
I looked at this scene of great love speechless. I felt that I, Chen Chengyi, was so fortunate to have met so many heroes in my life.
At this moment… I finally saw clearly that Yue Yue… had bright red blood all over her hands… and she was forcing the blood to keep flowing… and in the pool of blood, there was a golden silkworm with four wings absorbing the blood…
I’m not stupid, I can tell at a glance that it’s essence blood… But how much essence blood can one person have? Does Ruoyue need to feed the golden silkworm like this?
And next to Ruoxue… there was a hideous insect surrounding her… I of course recognized that insect, it was her life-gou, the terrifying insect that was said to devour everything, and it was also the ‘leader’ of the insects.
There was a hole in her shoulder… but she still looked like a lotus flower on a snowy mountain… isolated from the world, like a fairy in the snow…
“Sister, the golden silkworm you gave me is growing very fast…” When Lushan was old, Ru Yue’s face gradually turned pale. She was talking to Ru Xue so easily… as if someone else was feeding the golden silkworm, not her.
Ru Xue’s eyes revealed her concern, and she gently embraced Ru Xue, saying, “Yes, it may be that it is carrying my thoughts… The more I miss you, the faster it grows.”
“Sister, I’m not used to hearing you talk like this… it’s not like you to express yourself like this.” Ru Yue seemed a little dizzy and could not stand up, so she rested her head lightly on Ru Xue’s shoulder.
“Then get used to it occasionally. You see, I let it out, which means I have to take it back… Otherwise, there will be a big mess. Fortunately, this is my life-giving worm. As long as I am not good, it will not be good either.” Ru Xue said lightly, as if it was a very pleasant thing to say that she was not good.
“That’s good. I never thought that we couldn’t be born together, but we can still die together… such a deep sisterhood. In the next life, you will definitely still be my sister.” Ru Yue’s voice became very soft… the bright blood flowing from her palm gradually became dull…
The golden silkworm didn’t seem to be full yet… Ru Yue said with some regret, “This is all I can do…”
Ru Xue hugged Ru Yue tightly… and touched her face and said, “Yes, we have a deep bond. I will come find you… but I still have to hold on for a while. Chengyi still needs me.”
“Well… just a little longer.” Yue has become a little confused… her hand hangs limp, and the white silkworm turns red… and flies off into the sky…
Ruxue’s bug also followed closely…
“Dong,” the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground… Qiangzi fell to the ground without warning…
“That’s all I can do…”
At this time, I was less than 5 meters away from the solitary temple… I just needed to try a little harder… a little harder…
