At the moment of killing the evil demon from outside the domain, Yu Ducheng desperately attracted His gaze and let this fatal gaze fall on Luo Xue.
He wanted Luo Xue to feel the same way he did back then, to know what it felt like to have his own path collapse. This was the final resentment and curse after his obsession ultimately failed.
At that time, Huang Zun noticed this in advance, but it was of no use to her. Even if she tried to block His gaze with her burning consciousness, it was penetrated as if it were nothing. Luo Xue was ultimately unable to avoid it.
However, Luo Xue did not completely collapse the avenue that she controlled in front of Yu Ducheng as he had expected, nor did she develop the situation that Huang Zun had worried about, such as gaining other abilities or tentacles.
Huang Zun witnessed with his own eyes what terrible consequences occurred after accepting His gaze.
The gift of ability is accompanied by the arrival of weirdness, which will eventually turn into weirdness that cannot be classified as a living being, as if it is condensed by the purest malice in the world.
Huang Zun said on the surface that she didn't care or mind what would become of Luo Xue, but when Luo Xue was really in danger, she was still quite nervous.
So during this period of time, Huang Zun risked losing consciousness and stayed by Luo Xue's side in a physical form.
As for why Luo Xue has not encountered any accidents until now...Huang Zun has no idea, but just in case, he still follows her closely.
"Senior Huangzun, do you want to see Senior Fengzun again?"
Luo Xue looked down at the Tongtianyuan River. The purple bird reflected in the river was a stunningly beautiful divine bird that possessed all the splendor in the world.
"I've said it many times, I will never meet her in this life, even just once!"
Huang Zun's tone was quite impatient, and he flapped his wings to express his dissatisfaction.
"If you insist, I will explode myself."
She would rather self-destruct than see her sister. Luo Xue could not imagine what kind of grudge between these two sisters was worth doing so.
Of course... Feng Zun never mentioned it, and Huang Zun was even less likely to tell her, so she could only keep this doubt in her heart for the time being.
"I won't say anything anymore," Luo Xue shook her head repeatedly. She looked up at the starry sky, "Actually... I just want to go back and see Xiaoyao."
Now that the affairs of the Great Thousand World have been dealt with, the disaster caused by the evil demons from outside the domain has nothing to do with her. She only had to get involved because her friends were involved.
Saving the world or something... Luo Xue thinks she doesn't have the ability yet, and doesn't have any responsibilities to bear.
No matter what she is like now, she is still the same as the little girl who struggled to survive on Fengyin Mountain. She is just willing to risk her life for the survival of herself and her friends.
"You mean... my bloodline descendants, right? I, I do have some interest..."
When Huang Zun heard Luo Xue mention this name, he rarely showed any sign of hesitation and began to waver.
Huang Zun is just stubborn and has a bad temper, like a tsundere, but he is a good person...at least it can be seen from Luo Xue's experience during this period.
Just as Luo Xue was thinking about whether she should call back Senior Sister Li to repair the teleportation formation that would take the Nangong clan back to the four regions of Jiuzhou, she received a rare proactive contact from Senior Sister Li.
"Junior sister, how are you doing?" Senior Sister Li's voice was as friendly as ever, but still a little nervous, "I heard that you had a fight with the Quasi-Emperor..."
You know, for the cultivators in the four regions of Kyushu, the Yuhua Realm is already greater than heaven, and the Crossing the Sea Realm saint is even more out of reach. Li Guijiao has been here for more than a thousand years and has not changed this concept... because the difference in strength is visible to the naked eye.
And now, the junior sister had actually fought with someone above the saint, and the first quasi-emperor since the ancient times. Li Guijiao was both proud and worried, until she finally found an opportunity and contacted Luo Xue to inquire about the situation.
Luo Xue laughed in silence, but still told Li Guijiao about her situation.
After hearing this, Li Guijiao felt relieved, but soon she became serious again.
"Oh, there is one more thing, Junior Sister. It's very important."
"What's the matter?" Luo Xue asked.
"Have you heard of the blood sea deep in the Demon Realm in the Four Regions of Kyushu?" Li Guijiao whispered, "Emperor Dugu seems to have found a place similar to the blood sea in Guixu..."
Chapter 243: The truth behind the withered body of ten thousand years, the mystery of Guixu
During this period of time, Li Guijiao has been staying in the imperial capital to repair the damaged Xianlu for Emperor Dugu, and has already repaired several ships that were less damaged.
In order to test whether the repaired Xianlu has the same power as before, Emperor Dugu personally took action and commanded the Xianlu Army to drive the Xianlu into Guixu.
By accident, Emperor Dugu detected an unusual place in Guixu. After recording it, he returned to the world and found that this place was actually an ocean formed by some kind of blood, with a very strong smell of withering.
Even though it was just recorded, this breath of withering almost injured Emperor Dugu. It can be seen that when they were in Guixu, they almost brushed against death.
However, Emperor Dugu was quite calm about this. He was well aware of the dangers of Guixu. There were countless existences more terrifying than the Withering Blood Sea. Even cultivators who were much more powerful than him had fallen into Guixu.
After getting this news, Li Guijiao thought Luo Xue would be interested in it.
She didn't think that the sea of blood in Guixu had anything to do with the Nine Provinces and the Four Regions. If she could return to the Nine Provinces and the Four Regions through Guixu, she would have left long ago and would not have waited until now.
Over the past thousand years, Li Guijiao has searched countless places. She has discovered that the four regions of Jiuzhou are protected by some kind of force, and it is impossible to find the way back through ordinary means.
After hearing what Li Guijiao said, Luo Xue pondered for a moment, turned her head and looked at the purple bird next to her, nodded slightly,
"Okay, I see."
"Oh yes, Emperor Dugu asked me to tell you something. If you want to enter Guixu, remember not to bring his daughter with you..."
"...He said it was a little late." Luo Xue's eyelids twitched slightly.
Dugu Xue has been to Guixu several times, in and out seven times, and now you are telling her not to go in...
"what?"
"It's okay." Luo Xue rubbed her temples, "I understand."
"Okay." Li Guijiao didn't ask any more questions. She just wanted to say something. "You go ahead and do your work. If there's anything else, let me know."
"...Um."
Luo Xue hesitated whether to tell Senior Sister Li about the teleportation array, but Li Guijiao had already cut off the contact, so she had to give up for the time being.
"The Nangong clan isn't ready yet anyway, so there's no harm in waiting."
Luo Xue calmed down and looked at the purple bird.
"Master Huangzun..."
"I know what you want to ask," Huang Zun was the first to interrupt Luo Xue. She had heard the communication between Luo Xue and Li Guijiao clearly. "What I can tell you is that, yes, that is indeed my corpse - to be precise, a part of it."
"...You died in Guixu?"
"Part of me died in Guixu." Huang Zun said calmly. Even though he was talking about her death, it was as if he was talking about someone else's. "In the battle in the past, my body was torn into two parts. One part was taken away by her, and the other part was drifting in Guixu."
Listening to Huang Zun's description, Luo Xue should have felt sad about her experience, but the problem was that this way of narration, coupled with Huang Zun's serious tone, made people... unable to help laughing.
But Luo Xue couldn't really laugh, so her expression became a little distorted.
"Life and death should be left aside. I am glad that I am truly dead, and not a withered shadow left in the world."
Unexpectedly, Huang Zun did not reprimand Luo Xue, but explained seriously,
"Your situation is not much different from mine back then, so you will definitely understand in the future...For a withering body, death is a kind of relief, and being unable to die is the real despair."
Luo Xue opened her mouth, and she suddenly realized that withering and immortality are both on the Avenue of the End, and the existence that controls the Avenue of the End...cannot be viewed from the worldview of ordinary creatures.
Her expression became a little more serious and she nodded heavily.
"However, although my corpse is of little use to me now, it is of great benefit to you. Find a chance to bring it back." Huang Zun's tone seemed to soften slightly. "Don't you have no body to use now? The body condensed by the withered sea of blood is the existence that is least afraid of 'immortality' in the world."
"Actually... there should still be one, right?" Luo Xue hesitated a little and said, "I still have a body that has withered for ten thousand years, buried inside another part of your body..."
The more I hear this statement, the stranger it seems, even though it is true.
"Oh?" Huang Zun finally perked up a bit this time. She looked at Luo Xue carefully for a few times and said in surprise, "It turns out that there is consciousness that can escape from the withered body of ten thousand years? I thought that all the withered bodies of ten thousand years can only be buried until they become the incarnation of the Great Dao."
"Um...what do you mean?" Luo Xue was slightly stunned.
"You said it before, the body of Ten Thousand Years Withering, only the body is forged by Withering, but the consciousness is still the consciousness of a living being. For Withering, 'death' is equivalent to 'survival', but the death of consciousness is real death." Huang Zun said faintly, "Did she tell you that the body of Ten Thousand Years Withering only needs the precipitation of time to become an emperor?"
"Ah, Master Fengzun did say so."
Luo Xue touched her nose. Although she remembered that when Feng Zun said this, there was indeed some hesitation in his expression, as if he was hiding something.
Considering that this was said next to Su Yiyao, Luo Xue thought that this concealment was directed at Su Yiyao rather than herself.
"Oh, she is still as hypocritical as ever, disgusting!" Huang Zun snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "What she didn't tell you is that only a body with ten thousand years of withering can become a great emperor, and your consciousness will only be trapped in the body by withering, gradually falling into silence until it becomes a part of withering.
"That is to say, your death is inevitable!"
After listening to Huang Zun's words, Luo Xue was silent for a long time.
She finally understood why her consciousness returned to the post-apocalyptic world after being silent in the depths of the sea of blood.
Because in the moment of silence, she was already dead, completely melted into a part of the withering, this is the truth of the whole thing.
Feng Zun lied, but the person she deceived was Su Yiyao.
She gave Xiaoyao a false hope, rather than the cruel truth.
"If I were to say, she's just a bad...bad woman who's full of nice words!" When mentioning his sister, Huang Zun became a little more irritable, flapping his wings non-stop, "If it weren't for her, I...would have died a long time ago!"
"..."
Originally, Luo Xue was a little curious about what had happened that made Huang Zun hate his sister so much, but the last sentence almost made her unable to hold back.
What do you mean...already dead?
It turns out that when he mentioned before that his body did not show any fluctuations at all, and his subsequent remarks, he believed that death was a relief for him.
Perhaps it was because of this that Feng Zun stopped his sister from thinking about it, thus incurring her resentment.
However, at this time, Huang Zun also realized that he seemed to be a little out of control, so he calmed down and continued,
"You don't need to know too much about my affairs. Anyway, if you want to find a container to hold your soul and consciousness, you might as well borrow my body."
"Why?" Luo Xue asked curiously. She was a little puzzled. She had already told Huang Zun about the matter of his withering body over the years, so why did Huang Zun still think like this?
"Do you think that with the help of the soul of immortal will, you can resist the influence of the withering body of ten thousand years?" Huang Zun did not answer immediately, but asked Luo Xue in return, "Or, achieve some kind of balance?"
"...Is it impossible?"
"Indeed, it is not impossible. There is indeed a glimmer of hope to achieve a balance," Huang Zun said softly, "but the result is likely to be the same as mine."
"Dead...?"
Luo Xue's pupils shrank slightly.
"Otherwise, how do you think I could die in the state of withering will?" Huang Zun sneered, "She has been deceiving me and not letting me know this method. If it weren't for an accident... I would still be alive now!"
This passage sounded so strange that Luo Xue had to change Huang Zun's concept of death to survival before she could understand it.
However, she still had some doubts.
"So for you, this result is actually what you most expect to see... But why did you specifically remind me to stop me?"
"You want to die too?"
Huang Zun asked strangely.
"I...don't want to for now."
"If that's the case, why do you ask such a question?" Huang Zun spread his two little wings, "I am just pursuing my own death, not worshipping death itself. If you want to die, I can indeed help you. If you don't want to die, why should I let you die? There is nothing wrong with my brain..."
"But what you said made my brain burn a little. Let me sort it out later..."
Luo Xue rubbed her temples again, this time she was confused by Huang Zun's amazing logic.
To be precise, Huang Zun thinks death is a good thing, but she also knows that death may not necessarily be a good thing for others.
"Anyway, if you want to die, you can do this. If you don't want to die, you can just use my body."
Huang Zun made the final conclusion. She was quite satisfied with her current condition, so she had no obsession with the corpse and gave it to Luo Xue generously.
Luo Xue was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, but when she thought about it carefully, she realized that her soul really lacked a suitable container.
If the Withered Body of Ten Thousand Years really cannot be used, then the only thing we can do is to use the Withered Sea of Blood.
"In that case... Master Huangzun, I am sorry to offend you."
Luo Xue stood up and bowed respectfully to the purple bird.
"What trouble is there? It's just something beyond the divine."
The purple bird made a human-like expression and curled its lips in disdain.
However, Luo Xue's attitude still made her very happy, and she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly.
Compared with her sister Feng Zun...there is indeed a big difference in personality.
.......
In the blink of an eye, several more days passed.
The ancient Beiming clan welcomed the first group of guests after the shocking war, a group of envoys from the Nangong Holy Land, led by Nangong Ling.
When Luo Xue asked Nangong Ling and others to leave, she wanted them to return to the Nangong clan and make a decision based on the situation.
