ninety thousand miles

Chapter 459 Connection
Wen Guying walked slowly around the jade wall. After he came back, he said, "I guess we can only go up after we enter the mural and break through the illusion."

"I'll go in and take a look." Yao Shuang said as he was about to perform the spell.

"Wait a minute," Wen Guying stopped Yao Shuang, "Let's sort it out first."

"You say." Yao Shuang lowered her hands.

Wen Guying said, "After the great catastrophe of gods and demons, only one in ten members of the two tribes survived. Senior Sister Yao, based on your understanding of the demon ruins, how much power do you think the demons needed to build a place like this?"

After a brief thought, Yao Shuang replied, "This place is completely different from the demon ruins I explored before. The purpose of the ruins elsewhere, such as Yanqing Mountain, is generally clear, and some habits and characteristics of the demons can be explored from them. When repairing the formation, you can also feel the demons' understanding of power and the way. And this spire, rather than a relic, I feel it is more like a magic weapon, or a device..."

"I see." Yao Shuang thought for a while and said, "After the great catastrophe of gods and demons, the gods and demons knew that the situation was hopeless, so they sunk this device here and waited for the opportunity."

"Six hundred years ago, the plague that broke out here might have been related to this tower." Wen Guying said, "And a wandering nun, who was proficient in the magic formations and knew that the tower was awakening, came here, built a nunnery, and kept the tower asleep by chanting scriptures. Six hundred years ago, Senior Sister Yao, do you have anyone who can match your memory?"

Yao Shuang shook her head and said, "No."

"Five or six years ago, Prince Su knew of the existence of the tower, and he had people dig out a secret passage. After Prince Su was placed under house arrest last year, the evil spirit was born. She contacted Prince Su's men, destroyed the formation, and used secret techniques to awaken the tower. Finally, we arrived here." Wen Guying said.

Listening to Wen Guying's description, Li Chuan also felt that his thoughts began to become clearer.

Yao Shuang said, "Do you think the demon spirit set a trap in the mural?"

Wen Guying nodded and said, "Maybe the mural itself is a trap."

"Go on." Yao Shuang said.

"Those who survived the catastrophe may be able to glimpse a glimpse of hope for survival tens of millions of years later, but that's all. They can't be sure that it was the descendants of the two tribes who discovered this place, so..." Wen Guying looked at the mural and said, "Those who come here must be able to complete their plan."

"Something is not right." Li Chuan said.

Wen Guying looked at him and asked, "What did you think of?"

"If we can get here, the demon spirit can do it too. Then what about those servants in Prince Su's mansion? Can she only use evil methods?" Li Chuan expressed his doubts.

"She wanted to awaken..." Wen Guying said halfway and then fell into deep thought.

Neither Li Chuan nor Yao Shuang urged him.

Li Chuan saw Yao Shuang staring at the jade disk, so he also chose one side and examined it carefully. He saw an eagle in the blurry and constantly changing picture, and then his eyes followed the eagle flying in the picture.

He presented many strange terrains and grotesque monsters, colorful and like a weird dream.

"Li Chuan!"

Master Wen called him?
Li Chuan woke up with a start. He immediately took a step back, away from the jade disk, and asked, "Master Wen, have you figured it out?"

Wen Guying nodded and said, "Almost."

"Then shall I go in?" Yao Shuang asked, eyes burning.

"Wait a little longer..." Wen Guying said halfway, then changed his tone and said, "Then please, Senior Sister Yao, go in and explore the way first. If anything is wrong, remember to come out immediately." "Okay." After Yao Shuang finished speaking, she took a step towards the jade disk. The light from above shone on her, and her whole body became as ethereal as the scenery in a painting, and she disappeared into the jade disk in the room.

When Li Chuan tried to find her figure in the jade disk, Wen Guying said: "Senior Sister Yao is like this. She looks very stable and easy to communicate with, but she actually just wants to do things according to her ideas."

"Is that so..." Li Chuan retracted his gaze and asked, "What on earth did you think of? Why did you think about it for so long?"

"Think about what you said before, the relationship between the demon and the White Walkers." Wen Guying said.

"The one where the demons used the characteristics of the White Walkers to achieve their goals?" Li Chuan remembered.

"That's it." Wen Guying sighed and said, "The gods and demons cannot predict whether the people who come in here tens of thousands of years later will be human or ghost. But it only needs to turn everything that comes in into a strange ghost."

"How to change?" Li Chuan asked.

Wen Guying said: "It's very simple. They just need to find a place where the boundary is blurred."

"Here?" Li Chuan asked.

"Well, the many illusions here may be caused by the blurred boundary area. The spire is hidden in the surging, and the evil spirit sinks into the abyss of the heart. These two things echo each other." Wen Guying said.

He had obviously sorted out many of the details. He said, "Under the erosion of the calamity energy, the laws established by the Nine Peaks Immortal gradually lost their binding force, and the spire gradually woke up. News that there was a treasure hidden in this relic of the demon race kept spreading, and monks from various sects came to investigate. Li Chuan, perhaps in another future of time and space, all of this has already happened."

He sighed softly, "I even feel that this nunnery did not exist in that time and space."

"Senior Sister Yao is in the mural. Will she be in trouble? For example, she may be possessed by a White Walker?" Li Chuan asked. He said, "Should we call her out? Since there are White Walkers here, we can simply open the Heart Abyss and let the entire spire sink into it and completely dissolve. This way, we don't have to worry."

"Senior Sister Yao must like your idea very much." Wen Guying said.

Li Chuan still felt that his idea was feasible. He said, "Although we still don't know who the official-robed swordsman group is, their actions are destroying the plans of the gods and demons. Then we can do the same. Moreover, I think we don't need to figure out what the gods and demons want to do. We can just sink all the demon relics here, the stone platform in Heyuan Town, and Qinling Mountains... into the abyss of the heart, and the same goes for the White Walkers..."

"It's not feasible." Wen Guying said.

"Why?" Li Chuan asked.

Wen Guying said: "That will probably lead to an even greater disaster."

He then explained, "The three realms will eventually return to the Heart Abyss, and all our efforts are to seek true transcendence and to try to delay the arrival of that moment. You sank the demon-related things into the Heart Abyss, which seemed to have solved the current crisis, but it caused more disasters."

"Although we all speculate that the source of this catastrophe is the White Walkers, what if it is not? Enemies that can be seen and sensed can be defeated. What we are afraid of are those beings that we don't know where they came from or where they came from."

"So what can we do now?" Li Chuan asked.

Wen Guying said, "When we were in the Godly Temple, you said you used the butterfly spirit to control the mural. Now that the butterfly spirit has parasitized, there is also a fantasy mural here. Why don't you try to see if you can use the butterfly spirit to control the mural?"

"Let me think about it." Li Chuan held the butterfly spirit and concentrated.
