Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 395 Moving towards the future
Dan Qingyan slowly straightened his messy clothes: "Last words?"

She sat down cross-legged, her hair scattered on her shoulders, and her wide robe spread out like a blooming black lotus.

Dan Qingyan's voice was already very soft.

It swallowed up the redundant things in the abyss to nourish the red lotus karma fire and maintained such a terrifying load in the battle. Even the "Six Desires Heavenly Heart" that was free from all desires could not bear it and turned from clear as glass to turbid.

What's more, under the extreme pain brought by the Red Lotus Karma Fire, Song Shi's evil flames erupted with a killing power that was even greater than any previous moment in this life, ferociously bombarding his mind and completely shattering it.

At this moment, it would be better to say that it is not so much Dan Qingyan who is here, but just a trace of his remaining will that is holding on.

"Why did you rob this batch of intelligent machines?"

Song Shi took out the Yaoxing Three Relics and waved them in front of the other party: "It can be considered as a request from someone, and I don't mind it, so I'll come."

"Haha." Tan Qingyan laughed softly, "It really is just what you want."

She then asked: "Where do you think the future should go?"

"War." Song Shi said nonchalantly, "Nine fields are in turmoil, mountains, seas and land are sinking, or something like that."

"I know this." Dan Qingyan said, "What I want to ask is what you think the future will be like after the war."

"Then I don't know." Song Shi answered straightforwardly, spreading his hands: "I'm not a divination, how can I predict the direction of the future?"

"Besides, if the future is already fixed and you know it long ago, wouldn't it be too boring?"

".Yes." Tan Qingyan did not show any surprise, she just nodded: "You are qualified."

“But the rest of the people are different.”

The woman's pupils flushed crimson again. The demonic reality faded away briefly, replaced by the initial compassion: "Most of the creatures in this world don't have the right to choose. If people like you and me act recklessly, what will they do?"

"You're right. The future has thousands of possibilities. But no matter which possibility it is, there will be no room for them."

Song Shi smiled and said for her: "-Except for the 'Council of Knowledge'."

“All for the future.”

Dan Qingyan slowly recited this sentence that she had recited countless times, and then she stared at the young man in front of her: "The ignition of the first flame led to the birth of civilization. The emergence of the steam engine promoted the explosion of productivity. The systematic application of electricity injected fresh blood into the world. The vigorous development of prosthetic technology has made the natural differences between people no longer seem like a chasm."

"Technology." Tan Qingyan exhaled softly: "That is universal, complete, abundant, and the only thing that can truly lead everyone to a bright future."

"Ha." Song Shi laughed. "Then can you comment on the aphorism I heard in the Enterprise Alliance, 'Thanks to electric lights, we can now let workers work at night.'"

"Ah, don't get me wrong."

The young man raised his hand and said, "Although I don't have any prosthetics, I'm not against technology. I just want to hear your opinion."

"One who is sunk into desire." Dan Qing's words were concise and to the point.

"Nice answer, I like it."

Song Shi clapped his hands and put away his heavy weapon.

"Well, Dan Qingyan, I bid you farewell here. We will meet again in the hell of hell."

After being attacked by both the Calamity Flame and the Red Lotus Karma Fire, the minds of both sides met briefly, causing this conversation to be more like a spiritual exchange. It seemed like a long time had passed, but in fact it took very little time.

With the spiritual power of both parties, those complicated information can be exchanged in an instant and the other party's intentions can be understood.

"Hearing the Truth in the Morning"

Dan Qingyan was neither sad nor happy, he lowered his eyebrows and whispered, only his bone-white knuckles slowly closed in front of his chest. Song Shi restrained his smile, raised his right hand, and slowly pressed on the other's zenith.

The red-gold flames ignited, a raging fire that could easily melt steel, starting from the ceiling and spreading out.

The black hair silently caught fire, followed by the robe, and the white skin quickly dissolved in the fire.

But there were no ashes rising. Instead, there were purple-red petals flying quietly. Due to the crazy actions not long ago, in a sense, Dan Qingyan had become a part of the red lotus fire.

"Udumbara."

".There is no great purity."

After the last whisper, the place that once belonged to Dan Qingyan became empty.

Song Shi raised his head and saw the only complete red lotus rising quietly among the countless fallen petals. Then it faded away in the wind that blew from somewhere and disappeared without a trace.

Dan Qingyan.

dead.

Song Shi retracted his gaze and glanced into the distance. The battle just now was too intense and had already alarmed the derivatives of this network domain.

However, in front of psychic skills such as [Disaster Flame] and [Red Lotus Karma Fire] that specifically attack the mind, these derivatives also felt a subconscious fear and did not dare to come up directly. But now that they noticed that the movement here was gradually dying down, they could no longer hold back and were ready to move.

"——Oh? We're done up there too."

A pull rope suddenly fell beside Song Shi, like the old-fashioned pull-rod lamps in backward areas, which could turn on the light by pulling it.

However, this pull rope also has some characteristics of the "immortal rope" in the legends of Donglu. Looking up along the rope, at a height of three meters, its end disappears, as if it was hanging from the air.

Song Shi knew what this was.

I'm not very good at network theory, but my application is pretty good. This pull rope is essentially a temporary "traction tunnel".

If you were to fall into a depth 5 abyss without any preparation, even if Lapis Lazuli was a depth 4 [Demon], it would be difficult to rescue you accurately - the abyss was too vast, boundless, treacherous and chaotic.

Fortunately, when they dived into the abyss tonight, Lapis Lazuli had set up marks for each of them in advance, similar to the fluorescent bait used for night fishing, so that people could accurately locate them.

However, due to the chaos effect of Depth 5, this mark would become ineffective very quickly. After just a few breaths, the pull rope began to shake visibly and became shaky.

Song Shi grabbed the rope and pulled it hard.

——Pah.

The vision darkened.

Then the brightness returned.

Song Shi took a quick glance and found that the situation was quite good.

Chu Tonglu stood by, holding a cigarette, and said, "The intelligent machines have been made."

"Your side?"

"The opponent was determined to escape, and we couldn't stop him." Chu Tonglu took a deep breath in dissatisfaction: "But I gave him a hard time, smashing him into Depth 5 and breaking the mark on his body. He won't be able to escape from the abyss in the short term. Report the details to the Knowledge Council, and we still have time to run."

Song Shi raised his eyebrows and turned to the other side.

Ailu and Lapis Lazuli are rushing towards this side quickly, the former is slightly injured, and the latter... huh?
"Wow, a breakthrough on the battlefield." Song Shi clapped his hands and praised sincerely: "Congratulations, congratulations, it's incredible."
