Weird collapse, chasing husband crematorium

Li Mo carefully observed the expressions of Lin Chaoyu and Su Mei, and neither of them had any extra emotions.

They don't know that I have a retreat in the strange cave.

but……

Li Mo continued to think, and the seven disciples of Taixu stood quietly in place, waiting for Li Mo to give an answer.

Lin Chaoyu confessed so confidently that after knowing the truth, if he could not survive with everyone, he would definitely stay in Taixu Mountain.

The strange cave is right in the middle of the Tongtian Road. Even if you cannot leave Taixu Mountain, you can still enter the strange cave and leave this world. After all, the strange cave is on Taixu Mountain.

After knowing the truth, I can go to the town at the foot of the mountain and naturally enter the strange cave. There is no such thing as being unable to leave.

I'm afraid it's confined by some unknown rules, one of which is restriction, locking, hypnosis... It will leave coordinates on the body and cut off the idea of leaving.

In that case, even if he escaped from the strange cave, he might not be able to escape unscathed.

Want to bet?

Is the truth valuable enough?

After considering for a long time, Li Mo decided to take a gamble.

He still has the chance to restart if the truth doesn't live up to his expectations, or if a strange law is imposed on him that he can't escape.

Just kill yourself directly, restart to the previous time point, and choose to refuse Su Mei's choice to tell the truth.

That's right, he has a rollback, so he can try an option with unknown cost.

If you can accept it, keep going; if you can't accept it, restart.

But I need to find out more about other important information.

"So you are the latter. You failed and failed to save everyone. You are trapped in Taixu Mountain, or even... Never mind. I think I should be right." Li Mo expressed his guess and did not mention the taboo content.

He absolutely could not reveal the fact of their death, otherwise if he chose to end it early, he would never know the truth.

Su Mei just nodded and smiled, without denying it. She narrowed her eyes slightly, her mind wandering, her gaze becoming increasingly blurred, as if she was intentionally blurring her thoughts.

For now at least, they refuse to accept their own mortality.

Li Mo asked, "Why choose me?"

"Over the past thousands of years, countless people have climbed to the summit of Mount Taixu, and there are undoubtedly many intelligent individuals among them. Moreover, they have been able to withstand so many disasters and trials. Anyone who is not meticulous would have died on the way and would never have been able to reach the summit, let alone meet the immortal."

Chapter 24 "Please forgive me for the rest of the journey. You have to walk alone."

"They have ambition and strength. I don't think I'm the most special one. Is it just because I made it through the first day? With luck, dozens of people will reach the summit. Maybe... there might even be one or two people who discover some unique pattern that even I haven't discovered, and thus survive and lead more people through the first day safely, preventing total annihilation."

"Given enough time and enough samples, you're bound to come across one."

"Obviously, before you met me, you must have met people who were similar to me. So why didn't you choose them, but me instead?"

Li Mo said frankly that although he did not see it with his own eyes, he could still roughly infer what happened in the past.

He has a clear understanding of himself.

Nothing is special, especially people.

Everything has a price, Li Mo is well aware of this.

Su Mei's eyebrows curved, and she looked at Li Mo with more appreciation.

Of course they knew that the leaders who led the team to the top were always outstanding talents. After all, it was they who released the ghosts on the road to heaven.

However, they are not qualified, far from enough.

Many times, personal strength and vision cannot save the overall situation.

“Because He is watching you.”

"Him?"

Su Mei slowly raised her hand, ready to point at the Him on Li Mo's shoulder.

But after hesitating for a moment, he finally didn't have the courage and determination to point it out, so he could only drop his hand and give a helpless smile.

It’s not time yet…

"Okay, that's all for the test. You only have one chance."

"Choose to know half of the truth, or leave."

Su Mei and others gathered together, looking at Li Mo with some expectation in their eyes.

"If you choose to leave, we will all pretend that this incident never happened today."

Li Mo was unwilling to give up and wanted to get some extra information, so he asked again: "Nothing more to reveal?"

Su Mei quickly shook her head, but her eyes involuntarily glanced at Jiang Wanru behind her, and she denied it lightly: "No."

Suddenly, Jiang Wanru jumped out and said, "Yes, the master ate someone, a woman who looked exactly like her."

In an instant, Li Mo subconsciously wanted to raise his eyes, but instinctively restrained himself from doing so.

He knew that Su Mei was setting a trap for him again.

After knowing the truth, you will definitely accomplish many impossible things.

But Li Mo couldn't refuse because he had to find Hua.

After a brief moment of deliberation, Li Mo answered without hesitation: "In that case, let me handle the reality you fear."

"Tell me everything you know, right now."

The only woman who looks exactly like Chi Yuan is Hua.

No wonder Yu Duchen became ineffective. It would be understandable if Yu Duchen was also captured and controlled by Chi Yuan.

As users of Yuduchen, Hua can hide in Yuduchen, and Chiyuan can naturally go in as well.

Hua was eaten by the red kite...

This is why I couldn't find Hua's trace after searching for a long time.

But...what exactly does "eat" mean?

If it was strangely contaminated, it could still be saved if it was brought back to Alicia. But if it was eaten physically, it would probably have been digested completely.

Su Mei smiled slightly and couldn't help but look up at the bright sun in the clear sky. The dazzling light shone on every dirty corner of Taixu Mountain, making it look filthy.

She no longer hid her inner conspiracies after exposing them all.

How long has it been?

How long did it take to wait for him to reach where he is today?

A century of vicissitudes and a thousand years of tragedy will eventually come to an end.

For a moment, everyone's face showed a look of relief, as if they had broken free from their restraints, completely liberated, regained their own freedom, and returned to the vast world.

Sometimes, death really is an incomparable luxury.

Looking at the relieved expressions of the Seven Swordsmen of Taixu, Li Mo's tense nerves gradually relaxed, but he had not completely let down his guard.

He stood there quietly, waiting for the unknown truth revealed by the Seven Swords of Taixu.

Su Mei: "When should I start? Haha, I've forgotten. In fact, our memory is not complete, and we can't remember many things."

Li Mo: “…”

Lin Zhaoyu: "We have absolutely no intention of deceiving anyone. We will not leave out a single detail of what we should say."

Cheng Lingshuang: "From the moment we regained consciousness, we have been trapped in a thin, barren human skin, without any freedom at all."

"Only when someone reaches the summit of Mount Taixu can we transform into a complete human form during the day and compulsorily receive the guest and offer them a warm welcome."

"However, most people who reach the summit cannot survive the first night. They are killed by evil spirits at night and become nutrients for Taixu Mountain."

"Their blood flowed into clear streams; their bones were ground into solid table legs; their flesh was stuffed into tree trunks; their eyes were made into leaves on branches, and their skin was peeled off and covered on the bark..."

"As you can see, countless young talents and martial arts leaders are buried at the top of Taixu Mountain. No matter how outstanding they were or how talented they were, they could not escape this tragic end."

"However, their deaths were eulogized by countless people as 'dedicating themselves to the righteous path of the world, to the supreme pursuit, and to their beloved female friends'..."

"This rumor, coupled with the legend that meeting an immortal could fulfill one's wishes, attracted countless people. In a short time, Taixu Mountain was littered with corpses and blood flowed like a river..."

"We were restrained in some way and couldn't hurt the guests, let alone drive them away. We could only watch this happen."

"Over time, Taixu Mountain became a ghost mountain, and the number of evil spirits increased dramatically. The more people died, the more people came to die. It was an endless vicious cycle."

Jiang Wanxi: "In order to break this vicious cycle, we have come up with a solution, which is to release the evil spirits on the mountain to prevent future generations from climbing to the summit of Taixu Mountain."

"Because evil spirits are immortal and must die if their laws are triggered, they can effectively block those untalented and mediocre people from reaching the sky. Even if there are occasional fish that slip through the net, the number is still within an acceptable range."

"For this, we, the Seven Swords of Taixu, died many times before we were able to obtain several types of evil spirits with the most suitable patterns. We then released them onto the Tongtian Road to hunt those arrogant people who were blinded by desire."

"Even the food we feed you is actually made from corpses. You think it's delicacies, but in reality, it's already rotten, smelly, and filthy. Because we can't process it, we have to let those who come after us eat it, and it will become new corpses. This is how we can barely keep Taixu Mountain from accommodating the number of evil spirits."

"During the day, we are the elders who are harmless and entertain guests; at night, we fight with evil spirits for bodies, dismembering the living who have eaten the corpses, peeling off the human skin, and chopping up the flesh to prevent the evil spirits from resurrecting and becoming uncontrollable."

Jiang Wanru: "Hehe, this was actually the idea of Senior Sister Su Mei. Junior Sister Ling Shuang contributed, and my sister and I didn't contribute much. But maybe it's because we died less, so our memories are relatively complete. All we have to do is write these things down and tell Senior Sister."

"As far as I can remember, not long ago... about half a year ago? A man who looked exactly like Master, with only the hair and eye color to distinguish him from me."

"She has blue-gray hair and emerald green eyes; the master has white hair and red eyes. They may seem different, but their looks are so identical, as if they were cast from the same mold. It's a cause for concern."

"That man was incredibly powerful, possessing extraordinary skills. He single-handedly broke into the summit of Taixu Mountain and imprisoned several mutilated evil spirits. We were all shocked at the time, thinking it was Master who had regained consciousness and changed his attire..."

"We talked to him, but found out that he was not the master at all."

"Her expression and aura were completely different from Master's, so we just thought it was a coincidence."

"She didn't eat the corpse dinner we provided, and stayed on Mount Taixu for the full three days as per protocol. She said something inexplicable like she wanted to completely resolve the source of the strangeness."

"In the end, she actually stayed on Taixu Mountain, which was filled with countless evil spirits, for three full days, and successfully entered the Taoist temple and met her master."

"Then... the master grabbed the person, and many strange, wriggling hands emerged from her back, tightly wrapping around her waist, preventing her from leaving."

"Then we lost consciousness. When we woke up, we only heard the master say things like 'He's back' and 'He'll come'..."

"Ah... We seem to be dying."

Everyone spoke heavy words, but their expressions became more relieved.

Their bodies were shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye, their skin was losing moisture, and their pretty faces were becoming strangely deformed.

They spoke of their own mortality, which would not be long before they died.

Weird things cannot die, so only consciousness and memory disappear. Perhaps this is the reason why their memories are incomplete. They have actually died many times, and each death takes away a part of their memory.

When I woke up again, my mind was blank.

The next time they wake up... I'm afraid they will forget even more, until they can't remember anything at all. At that time, it will be the true death of the Seven Swords of Taixu.

Su Mei: "As you can see, we are about to die. That's why I only mentioned the truth now, because I'm not sure if you are the one who can save the world and whether it's worth it for us to hand over this mess that is already rotten to the core to you."

"Since Sister Su Yi has already chosen you, then we naturally have no reason to escape. We just hope that you can fulfill your due responsibilities and handle the rest of the matter on our behalf."

"After we die, there will be no one to suppress the evil spirits at night, nor will there be anyone to restrain the evil spirits on the Tongtian Road. They will wander among the people and kill innocent people without restraint."

"But if we live on, blindly escaping, and only thinking about our own survival, when one day in the future Taixu Mountain can no longer accommodate these evil spirits, the situation will be completely out of control."

"By then, evil spirits will revive, hundreds of ghosts will roam the night, and the people will suffer..."

"This goes against what we were taught since childhood."

"That's why I said, once you know the truth, the lives of all the people in this world are in your hands. If you make a mistake, you will kill thousands of innocent families, destroying them and separating them. You will have to bear this heavy karma and bitter consequences alone."

"I know this is difficult for you, but we have to do this, and you have to do it too."

"Behind Taixu Mountain there is a human skin forest, full of locust trees, used to store human skins."

"Once human skin meets the corresponding flesh and blood, a complete evil spirit will be born, which is very difficult to contain."

"After we die, we will also appear in that locust tree forest, but we will be at the outermost edge, using the Taixu sword energy to prevent other evil spirits from entering."

"It's like this most of the time, but there's one exception: the Ghost Festival in mid-July. Summer and autumn change, and yin and yang rotate. We can no longer prevent other evil spirits from entering. Even we ourselves may lose control for a short time."

"In the past, the corresponding 'flesh and blood' could not approach the locust tree forest because they could not find the way there."

"But it's different now. As time goes by, they keep trying and making mistakes every year. Last year, they vaguely found the way to the locust tree forest."

"I'm worried that this year, those 'filthy creatures' will enter the locust tree forest and completely unleash the evil spirits in the forest."

"Remember, absolutely... absolutely do not let the incomplete ghost get close to that forest."
