As the Universe Turns - Chapter 239

Chapter 239 Bizarre Dream

After walking for a while, the spiritual energy in front of them became denser and denser. Ling Luan whispered, “Sister Wei Yang, she’s right in front of us. Let’s be careful …”

“Alright.”

Hua Weiyang nodded her head, her heart still feeling a little strange. The spiritual energy here was indeed incomparable to the outside world, but for some reason, she just felt that something was wrong.

Logically speaking, the Spiritual Qi of the Spirit Mountain should be very stable, like a calm stream. However, she could sense that the Spiritual Energy here was intermittent and somewhat strange.

After walking for about another incense stick of time, the Spiritual Energy in front of him was already very strong, and he could vaguely see a large tree with luxuriant branches.

The leaves were green and verdant, emitting a faint green light. Ling Luan said joyfully, “Sister Wei Yang, did you see that? It’s ahead. That tree is evergreen.”

“Mm …”

The two of them arrived at the bottom of the tree. The flowers and leaves were much greener than when they were looking from afar. The spiritual energy they emitted was also much stronger. More importantly, the entire tree emitted an aura of life that would never wither.

“Is this the Eternal Youth of Flowers and Leaves?”

Hua Weiyang looked around the tree and saw that the flowers and leaves on the tree were jade green, revealing an endless vitality. However, at this unexpected moment, she saw a withered leaf slowly fall from the tree.

“Sister Wei Yang, let’s think of a way to take out the seeds of the Evergreen Flowers and Leaves …”

Ling Luan said excitedly, but Hua Weiyang stretched out his hand and said, “Wait.” As he spoke, he slowly squatted down and picked up the withered leaf on the ground.

“Sister Wei Yang, what are you doing …”

Ling Luan walked over curiously. However, when she saw the withered leaf in her hand, her expression immediately changed. “What’s going on? How is this possible … How could the evergreen leaves wither …”

“I’m also very curious about how the evergreen leaves of flowers and leaves wither.”

Hua Weiyang quietly looked at the withered leaf in her hand. At this moment, she looked much calmer than Ling Luan. Ever since she first came in, she had always felt that it was strange.

Her perception of Spiritual Energy was not something that ordinary people could compare to. Logically speaking, Spiritual Energy in the Flower and Leaf Profound Realm of Spirit Mountain should be the purest natural Spiritual Energy in the world. However, she discovered traces of human power mixed within it. This was simply too illogical.

She had even faintly noticed something unusual when she first came to Heavenly Spirit Sect. She felt that Chu Tianqing and the Grand Elders were a little strange. Combined with the expression on Chu Tianqing’s face that day when he insisted on Xiao Chen agreeing to the second condition, this matter became even more unusual.

“How could this be? The evergreen leaves of flowers and leaves can’t wither …”

Ling Luan still couldn’t believe it. At this moment, it was as if the sky had collapsed. No wonder Grandpa had ordered that no one was allowed to enter the Profound Realm these past few years. From this, it seemed that the matter of the evergreen leaves withering was no longer an overnight matter.

When did it start? Why did Grandpa hide it from everyone? The flowers and leaves of the evergreen trees withered, what did it mean? Could it be that the spiritual energy of the Spirit Mountain has gradually disappeared?

At this moment, her face became even more pale. It was as if she had seen the most terrifying thing. She shook her head and muttered to herself, “Impossible, impossible …”

“Wait …”

It was as if Hua Weiyang had sensed something. She slowly walked under the evergreen tree and gently pressed her palm against the tree. At this moment, she immediately sensed a surge of spiritual energy, like a trickle of water, slowly passing through the heart of the tree and connecting to a surge of spiritual energy underground.

“I see …”

At this moment, she finally understood what was going on. No wonder the Spiritual Mountain was so rich in Spiritual Energy. It was actually connected to a Spiritual Vein branch underground. However, the two Spiritual Energy branches were about to disconnect. Once the Spiritual Energy was disconnected, the entire Spiritual Mountain would immediately lose its Spiritual Energy source and would soon become desolate.

“Sister Wei Yang, did you find anything?”

Ling Luan asked in a low voice when she saw her thoughtful expression.

Hua Weiyang shook his head. Just as he was about to say something, a very gloomy voice suddenly sounded from behind, “What are you doing here?”

…

Inside the cave, Xiao Chen was still unconscious, but his soul seemed to be wandering outside. It was as if he had returned to Mysterious Cyan Mountain and that day.

“Xiao Yichen! You’ve made a terrible mistake today. Your master has given you a chance to turn over a new leaf. Do you still want to be obsessed and not regret it?”

“Heh, obsession is not regrettable … wrong, what is wrong, right, what is right.”

“Put down the demonic woman in your hand and you will still be a disciple of Xuan Qing!”

“If you want Xiao to exchange the lives of an innocent person for freedom, then this disciple of Xuan Qing, don’t do it! Get out of my way!”

“Stupid … idiot …”

“Don’t say anything. Last time, I couldn’t save you. This time, I must save you.”

“You … what are you talking about, what happened last time …”

“Wei Yang …”

Xiao Chen looked at the woman in his arms. Everything in front of him seemed to be real and illusory. It was still the same day. The wind was filled with killing intent. The Heavenly Sect’s Chess Messenger, Liu Xuanyin of the Hidden Edge Valley, Sect Master Qingxuan … Everyone was not inferior.

“This person is hopeless. Kill him!”

“Those who block me die!”

“Ah!”

“He … he! How is that possible!”

“Hahahaha … Do you think that the one standing in front of you is still that little Xuan Qing disciple back then … naive! Die!”

“Ah!”

Amidst the miserable screams, the aura of death filled the air. The ground was instantly in a mess, and no one could resist controlling life and death. At this moment, everyone looked at him in horror.

“Scoundrel!”

Adept Qingxuan’s eyes were ice-cold as he instantly transformed into a streak of light that blocked his path and whistled towards him with his palm.

“Bang!”

With a loud explosion, Xiao Chen struck out with his palm. The two palms collided, causing the entire Lian Feng Stage to tremble violently.

“Sect Master, I no longer owe you anything. If you insist on stopping me, don’t blame me for being heartless …”

“Scoundrel! You’re still stubborn. Today, I’ll help Xuan Qing clean up the door!”

“Naive!”

Xiao Chen raised his palm and activated the Life and Death Manipulation. A monstrous aura of death instantly enveloped Daoist Qingxuan. However, this aura of death was actually unable to harm the other party in the slightest.

“Haha …”

At this moment, a strange sinister smile flashed across Adept Qingxuan’s face. His face gradually became ferocious, as if he had completely changed.

Xiao Chen’s eyes narrowed, “So Sect Master also cultivated the Heavenly Book Fragment …”

“What …”

Everyone around was shocked when they heard this, “It’s the Diabolism Sutra. How did these two cultivate the Diabolism Sutra, Sect Master …”

Xiao Chen said coldly, “I think the Sect Leader has already set up the trap. The person who saved me is you, and the person who wanted to kill me is also you …”
