Volume 2: Achieving the Nine Heavens and Breaking the Cage Chapter 363: Birth and Death Begin with Dust
In the vast starry sky, when the endless stars no longer shine, can it still be called a starry sky?
Maybe, it was once...
This piece of starry sky that has fallen into deathly silence was once named... the True Ancient Immortal Realm!
But now, it has reached its darkest hour.
Among them, countless stars, and even the entire starry sky outside the star field, have lost their brilliance and are no longer bright!
Only... in the darkest starry sky, a fire is still burning!
The fire itself looks very ordinary, but it covers a very wide area, giving people a sense of eternity and permanence.
In fact, this fire did burn for eternity.
It is the nether fire that once burned on the top of Jiuming Mountain!
It’s a pity that the Jiuming Mountain no longer exists. Only the Nether Fire is still burning, but it no longer has the glory it had thousands of years ago.
But the strange thing is that at this moment, in the nether fire, there stands a green mountain, and there are buildings on the top of the mountain!
And on top of that building, there is a rotating circular tower!
But suddenly, whether it was the buildings, the structures, or the green hills, they all burned in the nether fire and turned into ashes!
Finally, a person appeared in the disappearing building, a middle-aged man with long gray hair.
He just sat cross-legged in the Nether Fire, his long gray hair fluttering in the Nether Fire. Suddenly he opened his eyes and looked outside the Nether Fire!
Outside the nether fire, there was also a person sitting cross-legged. He was a young man.
This young man is Gu Xiaochen!
Seeing the person in the underworld fire wake up, Gu Xiaochen smiled slightly and said, "Thank you, Senior Tianming."
Fang Tianming looked at Gu Xiaochen with complicated eyes and said, "You didn't stop me, but thanked me instead?"
"You helped the remnant spirit of the Nine Nether Girl, pulled Gu Xiaoxing into his dream, and taught him the Dao. Shouldn't I thank you?"
Gu Xiaochen looked at Fang Tianming, then sighed and said, "It's just that you shouldn't be so smart and do unnecessary things..."
Fang Tianming's pupils shrank and he stared at Gu Xiaochen, but he did not speak.
Gu Xiaochen continued, "Master is the same. He used the Eternal Sword Intention to evolve a shocking sword to attract my attention..."
"He then used the last remnant of his spirit to condense the True Sword, and wanted to follow the cause and effect of the Nine Swords of Truth to kill Xiao Liu. He thought I didn't know."
Fang Tianming's eyes kept changing, and he asked, "You didn't stop it?"
Gu Xiaochen shook his head, smiled calmly, and said: "It doesn't matter, Xiaoliu is not in the True Ancient Immortal Realm, let the sword fly for a while."
"As for you..." Gu Xiaochen hesitated for a moment before saying, "Well, since the seeds have been planted, I also want to see what choice Xiaoliu will make. Let nature take its course."
Fang Tianming was silent for a long time, and suddenly asked: "Third Ancient Realm, how far have you come?"
Gu Xiaochen smiled slightly, raised his hand and a long sword appeared in his hand.
The sword was ordinary, and he didn't do anything fancy. He just swung the sword.
In the nether fire, Fang Tianming opened his eyes wide, and an indescribable scene appeared in his eyes!
I saw countless stars disappearing, whether they were planets that had lost their vitality, or stars that had gone out, or even worse!
They all perished under this sword!
If you extend your sight beyond the star field, you will be shocked to find out.
This entire elliptical star field has a diameter of more than a million light years.
Just like that, Gu Xiaochen cut it in half with just one light sword!
“Senior Tianming, you should know that the inheritance of your Jiuming Mountain does not belong to Huang Shengmie. It comes from another Huang, Huang Fuchen…”
"I also hope that you can understand that life and death begin in dust and return to dust, but this is not my end."
"My sword is still missing a weapon spirit. Are you willing to follow me... out of the dust?"
At the same time, in a cage far away, who knows how far away.
The first barrier world, the bottom of the natural moat of the sky ring.
Gu Xiaoxing was flying with Qiao Yanran, with a little fox on his shoulder.
The little fox was wearing a green smoke dress, because all his cultivation was suppressed inside his body and could not be released to stabilize his body.
So she grabbed Gu Xiaoxing's shoulders with her claws, holding on tightly, for fear of falling.
"hiss……!"
Gu Xiaoxing felt the flesh on his shoulder being pricked by a claw. He turned his head and glared at Hongyue, saying in pain, "Be gentle! With my skills protecting you, how can I let you fall?"
The little fox curled his lips and muttered softly: "Who knows if you will do it on purpose."
"What did you say?" Gu Xiaoxing immediately bared his teeth and his eyes were already fixed on Hongyue's tail.
“Nothing…nothing!”
Hongyue was afraid that Gu Xiaoxing was biting her, so she quickly retracted her sharp claws, thinking that a good demon would not fight with a mad dog.
"Hmph! You'd better be honest. Fox meat may be sour, but it can be seasoned..."
"If it weren't for the fact that you saved me, I would eat you right now based on the requests you just made!"
What Gu Xiaoxing said was a bit scary.
But unfortunately, Hongyue was not Qinggu, and obviously could not scare her. Not only was she not afraid, but she also retorted: "Your meat is sour!"
Gu Xiaoxing has always been vindictive, repaying kindness with kindness and grievances with grievances. No matter what, Hongyue saved his life, so of course he would not really do anything to her.
Simply, I'm too lazy to pay attention.
Qiao Yanran leaned quietly in Gu Xiaoxing's arms. Like Hongyue, her cultivation was suppressed by the terrifying sealing force in the natural chasm and she could not fly.
But compared to recovering her cultivation, she seemed to prefer to just hold Gu Xiaoxing forever.
In fact, even Gu Xiaoxing was also greatly affected. Except for the middle dantian, his upper and lower dantians were completely dormant.
Even if he put on a dark robe for himself, the cultivation of his upper and lower dantians would still be completely suppressed inside his body and would be of no use.
Only the middle dantian never absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but the netherworld energy released from the burning Taoist incense!
After Gu Xiaoxing learned the Nine Nether Art, it seemed that the middle dantian was no longer affected by the sealing power of this place. He guessed that this cage might have come from the Nine Nether Clan!
At the same time, Gu Xiaoxing finally understood why the Spirit Transformation Array was useless to him when he was in the Black Wood Forest.
Because the Soul Transformation Formation can only suppress spiritual energy, but cannot suppress the dark energy!
But unfortunately, in this natural chasm, although his cultivation in the middle dantian was still intact, his spiritual consciousness still could not spread out.
For a Nascent Soul cultivator, the mind can travel thousands of miles in an instant. This feeling of only being able to see with the eyes made Gu Xiaoxing extremely uncomfortable.
Of course, even with naked eyes, Gu Xiaoxing's eyesight is far superior to that of ordinary people, and he can still easily see within thousands of miles, but it is not as clear as what he can see with his divine sense.
Moreover, it cannot provide full coverage.
" roar……!"
At this time, the sound of dragon roar was heard again, getting closer and closer.
Gu Xiaoxing narrowed his eyes and flew rapidly in that direction .
After a moment, a huge golden dragon with a body length of hundreds of feet appeared in his sight, which startled him slightly.
I thought that Jin Youlong was suppressed by the power of the seal here and couldn't move and was screaming, but I didn't expect that it was entangled by a rope.
However, Jin Youlong was indeed under great suppression, just like Qiao Yanran and Hong Yue at the moment, completely unable to use his cultivation and only had the strength of his physical body.
But even so, Jin Youlong is still strong. He is a fierce dragon who can break through the siege of three saints at the same time.
In terms of combat power alone, almost no Holy Son can defeat it alone.
At this moment, Jin Youlong's cultivation was suppressed and he could not fly. He could only roll on the bronze ground like a big insect, trying to get rid of the rope.
But unfortunately, the rope did not seem simple. Even though Jin Youlong exerted his physical strength to the extreme, after struggling for several days, it was of no use at all.
The power of the ban here is endless. No matter how strong it is, it cannot hold on for too long. It must break free from the restraints before its physical strength is exhausted.
Then find the abyss and climb out of the cliff, only then can you be saved!
Then, Jin Youlong began to struggle even more frantically, as if he was a dragon turning over continuously.
Fortunately, the ground here is made of an extremely hard bronze material. No matter how hard it tries, it cannot leave any marks.
Gu Xiaoxing did not go directly over, but stopped far away and put Qiao Yanran down.
The little fox also quickly jumped off Gu Xiaoxing's shoulder at the right time, as if he was somewhat disgusted with the contact with him.
"You two have no cultivation, so just wait here for me while I slay this stinking dragon!"
Gu Xiaoxing raised his head slightly and said in a rather cocky tone.
When Qiao Yanran saw him like this, she couldn't help but went up to him and gave him a kiss.
Gu Xiaoxing immediately covered his face and pretended to be angry, "How dare you sneak attack this master!"
On the side, Hongyue saw this scene and cursed in her heart how shameless she was. How could the dignified Saint Maiden of Youtian be so shameless!
Qiao Yanran looked at Gu Xiaoxing and blinked, as if she didn't know where she had done wrong, with a pure expression on her face.
But to Gu Xiaoxing, this expression was a complete provocation!
I can't stand it!
Gu Xiaoxing glared with his eyes wide open and launched a counterattack directly. He took a step forward, hugged Qiao Yanran, and kissed her on the little mouth.
Hong Yue felt her breathing stagnate, and then she exploded, angrily scolding: "How can you...how can you do such a dirty thing in public? You have no shame, no shame, shut up..."
However, Gu Xiaoxing and the other person were already immersed in it.
I turn a deaf ear to the fox's voice and only care about kissing my beloved.
This made the little fox even more anxious, and he even jumped up and cursed.
"Gu Xiaoxing, you are such a despicable and shameless person..."
"The master treats you so well, but you are fickle. Are you doing this to the Saint Lady?"
"How dare you bully me? I will tell the Saint everything when I get back...!"
"You are not worthy of the Master at all...!"
It was not until a long while later that Gu Xiaoxing finally looked up at Hongyue because he was really annoyed with what he was saying.
"It's not your turn to comment on what happened between me and Dongfang Yu. If you dare to say one more word, I'll eat you!"
But Hongyue was not afraid at all. If she suffered a little injustice, she would just endure it. But she didn't want her master to be wronged at all, so she wouldn't give in.
"Isn't it? And you...!" The little fox pointed at Qiao Yanran again.
"You're not done yet, are you?"
Gu Xiaoxing didn't wait for the other party to finish speaking, he rolled up his sleeves and went up to teach him a lesson. It was fine to say what he said, but what about Yanran who dared to say anything about him.
Even if he is your savior, he still needs to be whipped.
Hongyue's momentum weakened immediately. It was not because she was afraid of being beaten, but because she was afraid that the other party would bite her delicate tail again . She quickly retracted all four of her red tails.
