Chapter 36
Chapter 36
Sapphire was lucky, although he was forced to experience a long distance of free fall, but fortunately, at the last hundred feet, he managed to find Shuttle from the pile of magic weapons Zhong Weiwan threw to him, avoiding the danger of being crushed to pieces. ending.
After that, he tried many times to contact Zhong Weiwan without success.
Sapphire could only comfort herself. After all, the two of them had tokens with them. If something dangerous happened, they should be able to leave the secret realm in time, so he didn't need to worry.
And he quickly became overwhelmed.
Shuttle through the clouds was too conspicuous in the air, and it didn't take long to attract a gray giant eagle entrenched on the mountain top. Its spread wings were two hundred feet wide, and its edges were as hard and sharp as the blade of a magic weapon. Accompanied by its rapid flight speed, Easily tore through the defense of the cloud shuttle.
Sapphire had to make an emergency landing, and who would have thought that danger would follow.
The monks in the second level are still too weak. Strictly speaking, they are just beginners who have a little understanding of the laws of heaven and earth.
He had no companions, and walked alone in the secret place of Yunya, he soon felt exhausted, and his spiritual consciousness was exhausted, and his body had more and more wounds.
As a last resort, he could only choose to exit first through the token, but unfortunately met Ouyang Haoyuan who had been reduced to a monster.
Ouyang Haoyuan has long lost most of his spiritual intelligence as a human being, and the remaining strong obsessions are fused and entangled with the demonic energy that originally existed in the universe in his body, driving the lifeless woman to act and search all over the continent. The trace of Zhong Weiwan.
The vitality and blood of living beings are already extremely attractive to monsters, not to mention that he had gone through a long journey and urgently needed to devour flesh and blood to replenish consumption.
Those Tianyan Sect disciples guarding the gate were all killed and eaten by him, leaving only empty shells.
Sapphire barely escaped death by relying on the magic weapon of defense, but was also blasted hundreds of miles away, her meridians all over her body were shattered, and her consciousness was even more unconscious.
When Zhong Weiwan found him, the young man was already furious, and he was about to die soon.
Regarding this, the scholar who has always been good-tempered was rarely furious. Even if he knew the ins and outs of the matter, he still kicked Zhong Weiwan and Jiang Lin out of the house.
Jiang Lin naturally didn't feel any guilt in his heart, but he was worried that Zhong Weiwan would be hurt by this matter, and was thinking about how to enlighten him, but suddenly he heard the other party say: "I wonder if Brother Jiang can do me a favor?"
"...Of course." Jiang Lin suppressed the doubt in his eyes, and said gently, "Brother Zhong, just open your mouth."
Zhong Weiwan: "Sapphire's whole body's spiritual veins are broken, and even if it is repaired in the future, there may be sequelae. I want to make a magic weapon for gathering spirits for him and plant it in the blood of his body. It should be able to make up for it to some extent."
"It's just that some special treasures of heaven and earth are needed to make the magic weapon. Time is running out. I hope Brother Jiang can split up with me."
Jiang Lin's expression suddenly became serious: "Which types are they?"
Zhong Weiwan explained it to him in detail, and took out a scroll with detailed records and handed it to him.
Jiang Lin took it solemnly, and promised: "Brother Zhong, don't worry, I will definitely find it for you."
Zhong Weiwan thanked him earnestly.
"Why should we be polite between you and me? What's more, I am also very sad that little friend Sapphire happened. If I didn't have the way of that little bug, everything might not have happened."
He sighed heavily, seeming to blame himself.
Zhong Weiwan comforted: "It's not Brother Jiang's fault, besides, you have eliminated Ouyang... the culprit."
When he mentioned Ouyang Haoyuan's name, he obviously paused, and then changed his words.
Jiang Lin caught the fleeting sadness in Zhong Weiwan's eyes, his eyes darkened, and he said deliberately: "After all, it is a fallen monster, with endless blood on its hands, and it was trying to mistreat you at that time. Neither can be left alone.”
Zhong Weiwan counted breaths in silence, then sighed: "It is true."
The last ray of sunlight sank down the mountain, and the conversation between the two ended in the boundless night that enveloped the land.
At this time, Jiang Lin was not aware of the problem.
Since Ouyang Haoyuan's demonized body had been completely destroyed by his magical powers, leaving no ashes, he did not find the soul bone that Zhong Weiwan had taken away.
Zhong Weiwan's concern for Ouyang Haoyuan will still cause him strong unhappiness, but just as he figured out before, he still has endless time in the future, as long as he wears a disguise mask, he will be able to walk into the other party one day heart.
Thinking of this, Jiang Lin concentrated on finding three kinds of heavenly materials and earthly treasures for making magic tools for Zhong Weiwan.
The other three kinds of treasures that Zhong Weiwan was responsible for searching were all distributed in the southwest direction, and one of them was located in the extreme west.
He is quite familiar with it.
More than a hundred years ago, he fell in the Abyss of Ten Thousand Demons under the joint design of the shuttlers; more than ten years ago, he successfully climbed out of the Abyss of Ten Thousand Demons with the help of the body of Ganoderma lucidum, and lived nearby for a while.
He knew that there lived a cat demon with Taoism for 800 years, who possessed a precious magic weapon called the reincarnation mirror, and could recall the past and remember his life through the soul bone.
After retrieving the materials from the Abyss of Ten Thousand Demons, he went to visit Fellow Daoist Bai.
The white-haired boy was very surprised by his arrival, and when he heard his request, he agreed without much hesitation.
After all, they had a friendship through thick and thin, not to mention that Zhong Weiwan brought him a gift—Abai looked at the one that was obviously caught from the bottom of the abyss, and seemed to be formed by the condensation of the purest magic energy The high-level monster swallowed greedily.
Zhong Weiwan cupped his hands in thanks.
Before coming to the reincarnation environment, he put the soul bone belonging to Ouyang Haoyuan into the flowing blue mirror, and after a short while, all the memories left in it were released.
Just like looking at Liu Feng's memory back then, there are still incoherent and intermittent fragments, but it is enough for Zhong Weiwan to piece together the other party's experience of more than a hundred years.
His eyes widened in disbelief.
A long silence ensued.
*****
Jiang Lin spent several days finding the three kinds of genius treasures that Zhong Weiwan needed, and on the way back, he bought a large amount of basic materials needed to draw the formation symbols.
He still remembered the other party's original plan to go to Rose Fruit Forest after the Yunya Secret Realm, but because of Sapphire's accident, the plan was temporarily put on hold.
He could even imagine Zhong Weiwan's expression when he saw these basic materials, how uncontrollable joy would appear in his usually calm eyes, and how the corners of his lovely mouth would rise to an arc.
The result was unexpected, Zhong Weiwan didn't take a second look at those things.
His eyes fell on Jiang Lin, as if he was sizing up a stranger he had never seen before, and after a while he finally asked the confusion in his heart: "Why did you kill him?"
Jiang Lin didn't react for a moment: "Who?"
"Ouyang Haoyuan." Zhong Weiwan watched Jiang Lin quietly, and asked again, "Why did you kill him?"
There was no emotion in his tone, and his expression seemed to be the same as usual, but Jiang Lin was inexplicably flustered.
When he saw the soul bone in Zhong Weiwan's palm, he instantly understood everything.
He immediately worked his brain quickly, and made up a decent reason: "Ouyang Haoyuan has become a demon cultivator, killing many sect monks, and everyone can be punished."
He spoke righteously, as if he really was such an upright person who acted bravely for justice, and it was not out of selfishness.
There was an eerie silence in the air.
A gust of wind howled suddenly outside the window, and the mournful chirping of the lone bird flew across the sky.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhong Weiwan finally said, "Maybe I don't know much about Fellow Daoist..."
His words were scattered by the wind, sounding very far away.
Jiang Lin: "Brother Zhong..."
Zhong Weiwan didn't want to hear any more.
On the one hand, he couldn't accept that his best friend had his heart crushed by Jiang Lin after finally regaining control of his body and avenging him.Jiang Lin's reason may be impeccable, but it is not so simple for him.
On the other hand, the Jiang Lin in Ouyang Haoyuan's memory had a strange face he had never seen before, indifferent, cruel, like a god of death.This made him feel in a trance that he had never really known each other.
"...Thank you fellow daoist for your help, I will definitely repay this favor in the future." Zhong Weiwan put the three treasures of heaven, material and earth into his arms, and said, "Let me go first."
After Jiang Lin heard this, intense fear suddenly arose in his heart, and he subconsciously grabbed Zhong Weiwan's wrist.The latter looked back at him, frowning slightly.
"Fellow Daoist, please let go." His tone was a little cold.
Jiang Lin was in a stalemate for a moment, then let go of his hand slumpedly, and staggered back a few steps.
Zhong Weiwan's figure gradually faded away, and soon disappeared.
The wind gradually died down.
However, the cry of Luo Gu Niao still kept coming and going, as if it was some kind of mocking sound, echoing endlessly in the sky and the earth.What's more, one of them landed on the window sill, looking inside like a spectator.
Jiang Lin glanced at it, his eyes were extremely dark, full of hostility.
"roll!!!"
Sensing the dangerous aura, Luo Gu Niao immediately spread its wings and fled away. A cluster of tail feathers that had no time to dodge exploded into fireworks, leaving no trace in a blink of an eye.
Jiang Lin was left alone in the room again.
He looked at the talisman materials that were originally intended to be used to curry favor with Zhong Weiwan, his chest heaved violently, and his eyes darkened.
After a while, he suddenly raised a smile and said to himself: "It doesn't matter, I still have a long time..."
"Do not worry about it."
*****
In the second year, Jiang Lin took advantage of the favor Zhong Weiwan owed him and invited him to attend the Liuyun Fairy Meeting together.
Zhong Weiwan agreed, but the atmosphere between the two could not return to the past after all, and they broke up again in the end.
In the fifth year, Zhong Weiwan broke through the Ninth Realm.
In No. 20, Zhong Weiwan was promoted half a step up. At the same time, scholars explored the mysteries of the system and discovered the possibility of achieving a new way of heaven with the soul of a Taoist.
One year later, Zhong Weiwan had a premonition that the day of ascension would be imminent, so he decided to end the relationship one by one, including Jiang Lin.
They chatted all night, and despite Ouyang Haoyuan's death, they were like ordinary friends.When dawn fell into the cave, Zhong Weiwan got up, brushed his clothes, and said goodbye with a smile.
Jiang Lin watched him ride the wind away, as if he had nothing to worry about, and his whole body seemed to be torn in two.
Half of him is happy for Zhong Weiwan, and when he successfully ascends, Xiaowan's spirit will be completely restored; the other half of him is full of resistance, when he goes to the outside world, he no longer has supernatural powers and changes, is it possible to be with him? In the footsteps of Shang Xiaowan?
However, at this time, he could no longer change anything.
He could only watch helplessly as Zhong Weiwan ushered in the lightning calamity of ascension, standing fearlessly under the heavy dark clouds, every falling lightning was not only shaping his fairy body, but also consolidating his soul.
At this moment, he heard the sound of the system after a long time, intermittently, as if he was seriously disturbed.
"Sudden situation...invasion..."
Jiang Lin frowned: "What do you mean?"
"Zi la... Conflict... Coverage failure... Si la..."
Jiang Lin: "System!"
As if the shout really had an effect, the system's voice became clear for a few seconds, that is, in just a few seconds, it brought Jiang Lin the news he was most unwilling to hear in his life.
"Individual consciousness in the subspace is awakened, the core of the system is attacked aggressively, the effects of props fluctuate unstablely, and there is a certain probability that memory copying will fail."
Jiang Lin: "The copying failed...you mean he can't remember anything?"
When he asked this question, his voice trembled subconsciously, and he seemed to have a premonition in his heart, but he just didn't want to admit it.
The system's answer shattered his last illusion.
"The copying failed, the mission target retains the original memory."
Jiang Lin was completely silent.
He listened to the system sound that became sizzle again and again, and after a while, he showed a crying and laughing expression.
This is retribution, right?he thinks.
