Chapter 1137 – His appearance

　　Lin Qiye had eaten peaches and received the baptism of the power of faith, not to mention just a few small holes in his flesh and blood, even if he stabbed a few penetrating holes out with a knife, as long as the vitals weren’t injured, his life wouldn’t be in danger.

　　Lin Qiye’s gaze swept across the entire dead valley and eventually landed back in the direction of the depths of hell.

　　The future Anqingyu’s grip in the air before she left directly obliterated all the beings near the valley that had been contaminated by Cthulhu’s power, and Lin Qiye’s spiritual perception returned with it.

　　He swept through the surroundings and confirmed that no other resentful souls or blazing angel corpses existed, so he and An Qingyu immediately moved off towards the depths of hell.

　　Standing on the peak and looking into the distance, Lin Qiye could see a blood-like light blooming from between the mountains in the sky not far away, and countless demons with black feathered wings were circling around that red aura in the air.

　　If Lin Qiye hadn’t guessed correctly, that was the deepest part of hell.

　　Lin Qiye turned his head and was about to say something to An Qingyu beside him, but he saw that the latter was hurrying along while looking down at the sweeping earth beneath his feet in a daze, as if he was in a daze.

　　The moment he saw his expression, Lin Qiye’s heart trembled slightly.

　　This kind of look, Lin Qiye is more than familiar, when he was on the Pamir Plateau before, his look was the same as that of the current An Qingyu …….

　　Anxious, confused, and self-doubting.

　　If he hadn’t experienced the Battle of the Monument Guard, I’m afraid that the current him would still be trapped in these negative emotions.

　　Lin Qiye recalled the conversation he had just had with An Qingyu, and his gaze became complicated.

　　It seemed that An Qingyu said on her lips that she wasn’t interested in the future, but deep down, she was still constantly questioning herself and worrying about the direction she would move forward in the future.

　　”Seven Nights.” Just then, An Qingyu returned to her senses and turned her head to look at Lin Qiye, “Just now, did you see what the future me looks like?”

　　Lin Qiye froze.

　　”My head was held down by a mysterious force and I couldn’t see above myself at all, so I could only see a corner of him …… From your perspective, you should be able to see the whole picture, right?”

　　It seemed that An Qingyu was the same as him, due to the angle, both could only see the other party’s future appearance, and could not see the future above his own head.

　　”Uh-huh.” Lin Qiye nodded.

　　”What does he look like?”

　　In Lin Qiye’s mind, the shadowy figure cloaked in black robes and wearing a hood, standing in the center of the tumbling mists, once again appeared, and his gaze did not carry the slightest bit of emotion whether he was looking at himself or at An Qingyu itself, cold and indifferent.

　　Lin Qiye looked at An Qingyu’s bewildered eyes, hesitated for a moment, and lightly laughed:

　　”You’re standing in the mist wearing a crimson cloak, the edges of the cloak are a bit tattered, like you just went through a battle, you don’t wear glasses on your face, and other than your temperament being a bit deeper than it is right now, there doesn’t seem to be any changes.”

　　Lin Qiye lied.

　　If he let the current An Qingyu know the truth, he only feared that the confusion and self-questioning in his heart would be even worse, just like his own self at the time, drilling into a dead end.

　　He portrayed the future An Qingyu as being similar to the present just to alleviate the questioning of his own path in the future and stabilize his mind.

　　”Nothing has changed?”

　　Hearing these words, the confusion in An Qingyu’s eyes clearly dissipated a bit, and she nodded thoughtfully, “That’s good ……”

　　”What about me?” Lin Qiye asked along with this topic, “From your perspective, what will the future me look like?”

　　Lin Qiye was also inevitably a bit curious in his heart about what his future self would become.

　　An Qingyu opened her mouth, paused for a moment, and said:

　　”You’re in a courtyard with flowers, trees, and a pond, you’re standing under a maple tree, you’re also wearing a crimson cloak, you look very spirited, and your strength is far stronger than now.”

　　Lin Qiye briefly brainstormed an image of his future self and nodded slightly.

　　It seemed that his future self was mixing quite well?

　　With the spiritual perception of the [Mortal Dust Divine Realm], it wasn’t difficult for the two to advance while avoiding the demons in the sky, and as time passed, the piercing red aura got closer and closer to the two.

　　”We’re already close to the depths of hell.” Lin Qiye said in a deep voice, “Any further, the distribution of demons will be too dense and it will be difficult for us to go around.”

　　”If the exploration ship only entered hell through the gap, then the location of its shipwreck should not be far from the gap.

　　Drag escaped from the attack on the ship, and in a place where the demons are so densely packed, he shouldn’t be able to break out and leave, but rather choose a relatively safe visual dead end to hide …… perhaps a deeper crevice in the ground, or a cave, a mountain stream, or such a place.”

　　An Qingyu pushed his glasses and calmly analyzed, “Also, in Jiang’er’s last call, he mentioned that there was lava flowing in the water, so there must be broken mountains with lava near them.”

　　”…… I see.”

　　Lin Qiye poked his body out from behind a boulder on a mountain peak and swept his gaze across the surroundings, quickly locking onto a stretch of short mountain ranges not far away.

　　At the passes of a few of these mountains, red-colored lava continuously flowed out, flowing down the broken mountains into the waters at the foot of the mountains, bubbling up in a cloud of white mist.

　　”It should be right there.”

　　Lin Qiye and his duo quickly moved in the direction of that mountain range, and whenever a demon flew overhead, they disappeared into the void, and soon arrived around the mountain range.

　　Lin Qiye closed his eyes and sensed carefully for a moment and

　　”Found it!”

　　He opened his eyes, and his eyes flashed with a refined aura as he looked towards the mountainside of one of the mountains, “It’s Drag! He’s hiding in a cave!”

　　In the dead silent cave, a void crack opened out of nowhere, and two figures cloaked in crimson cloaks swept out.

　　”Brother Drag!”

　　Lin Qiye’s pupils suddenly contracted when he saw Shen Qingzhu leaning against the wall, motionless.

　　Only Shen Qingzhu’s eyes were closed, his face was incredibly pale, and an ocean of blood was spreading underneath him, soaking half of the cave floor.

　　Lin Qiye flew forward and tested Shen Qingzhu’s nostrils, and his face instantly turned ugly.

　　He stared blankly at the cold corpse in front of him, his entire body frozen in place.

　　An Qingyu gazed at Shen Qingzhu, who was sitting on the ground, and his eyes flashed with a gray intent, and after confirming that there was no longer the slightest bit of vitality in his body, his fists couldn’t help but clench up tightly.

　　”How is it ……”

　　Lin Qiye stiffly turned his head, looking towards An Qingyu’s eyes, a flash of hope flashed through, he hoped that he had misperceived, he hoped that An Qingyu could give him a different answer.

　　Bitterness surfaced in An Qingyu’s eyes, he gently shook his head:

　　”We came too late …….”

　　The entire cave, plunged into a dead silence, the rich smell of blood, the only thing outside the cave was the cold wind whimpering.
