As the Universe Turns - Chapter 258

Chapter 258 An Old Friend

The dark clouds that had enveloped the entire Spirit Mountain for a long time finally dissipated at this moment. Seeing that the people from Yinshan Sect and Xuanming Mountain had already fled, the disciples of Heavenly Spirit Sect finally heaved a sigh of relief.

Xiao Chen also slowly landed on the ground. The black gas on his body gradually disappeared. Ling Luan couldn’t wait to run over and looked at him nervously. “It’s … Wu Chen, are you alright?”

At this moment, Xiao Chen had gradually returned to his normal state. However, there were still doubts in his heart. He had just discovered that there was actually such a powerful force in his body. Could it be that it was really Senior Monster from back then …

Just as the devil origin energy of the three of them surged towards him, the scene of the past appeared in his mind again. It was like a night of thunder and rain. In that cave, it was strange that Senior had passed all of his elemental energy to a youth.

“Wuchen … why didn’t you say anything?”

Seeing that he didn’t say anything, Ling Luan asked again. She was probably the only one who dared to approach Xiao Chen, and the others were standing far away.

Xiao Chen regained his senses and shook his head as he looked at the girl in front of him.

At the same time, streaks of profound light suddenly shot into the sky within the Flower and Leaf Profound Realm. The Spiritual Energy of the entire Spiritual Mountain suddenly stabilized. Everyone was shocked, and at this moment, they were somewhat at a loss.

“Wei Yang …”

Xiao Chen realized something, and with a movement, he instantly transformed into a streak of light and rushed into the Profound Realm, “Wu Chen!” Ling Luan cried out from behind and rushed in.

When they arrived at the Flower and Leaf Profound Realm, they could only see spiritual energy flowing in all directions. Their spiritual energy was no longer comparable to before, and at the center of the Profound Realm, the flower and leaf were blooming with a tens of thousands of feet of azure light, emitting an endless aura of life.

“Wei Yang … Wei Yang!”

Xiao Chen saw Hua Weiyang hanging in the air and instantly flew over with Ling Xian’s steps.

“Stupid … idiot …”

Hua Weiyang’s face was pale. In order to repair the Spiritual Energy cracks in the Spirit Mountain, it was obvious that she had exhausted too much of her own Spiritual Energy. Without even saying a word, she fainted and slowly fell from midair.

Xiao Chen reached out and caught her. Looking at her haggard face, his heart was filled with mixed emotions. He was speechless. It was only after a long time that he said, “Wei Yang, sleep well. From now on … don’t worry about anything.”

A few days passed like this. On the seventh day, Hua Weiyang slowly woke up. Of course, these days, all the elders of Heavenly Spirit Sect would take turns to recover her spiritual energy. Otherwise, it would be impossible to say if she would have to sleep for a few months.

“Squeak!” The door opened from the outside. Xiao Chen strode in. Seeing that she was awake, he quickly walked over and gently pressed on her wrist. He could feel her aura stabilizing. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

The two of them looked at each other. At this moment, they didn’t know what to say. After a long time, Xiao Chen sighed softly. He stood up and handed her a teacup on the table. “Don’t be so foolish in the future.”

Hua Weiyang took the teacup and smiled sweetly, “Didn’t I say that? I told you not to worry. I have plenty of spiritual energy and will be fine.”

At this moment, Xiao Chen could not laugh. He said with a serious expression, “Life and death are destined. If something unexpected happens to you just because of me, then even if I put this seed of evergreen flowers and leaves in front of me, how could I live alone?”

After saying that, he turned to look at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window, took a deep breath, and after a long time, he turned around and quietly looked at her, “Wei Yang, who exactly are you?”

Even today, no matter how stupid he was, he would definitely not be unable to see that this woman in front of him was definitely not an ordinary person.

The room suddenly fell into silence. After a long time, Hua Weiyang smiled softly. He got up and went to his bed. He took a deep breath outside the window and smiled, “It’s a beautiful day today. Come with me for a walk. Sister Ling Luan said that it would be good for my recovery to take more walks.”

“Alright.”

Seeing that she didn’t want to say more, Xiao Chen didn’t ask anymore. In any case, even if he asked, the other party would never say anything. He was already used to it.

When the two of them went outside, they saw that the spiritual energy in Spirit Mountain was much denser than before in just a few days.

Seeing that he was silent all the way, Hua Weiyang suddenly smiled and said, “I heard that a demonic woman came that day.”

“You mean Xuanming Youji?”

Xiao Chen stopped. He didn’t know why she suddenly mentioned this woman, but Hua Weiyang also stopped. He turned around and looked at him with a faint smile. “She was born very beautiful, wasn’t she? I don’t know who she was that day, but she was fascinated. Why didn’t she follow him?”

“It was Ling Luan who told you.”

“Who cares who told me?”

Hua Weiyang snorted and gently plucked a flower from the roadside, continuing to walk towards the valley ahead.

When they reached the edge of the cliff, both of them stopped and felt the endless flow of Spiritual Energy below. Hua Weiyang suddenly said, “Do you know why the Spiritual Energy connection of Spirit Mountain had cracks before?”

“Why?”

“Look.”

Hua Weiyang gently loosened the flower in his hand. He saw the flower spinning in the air. The petals slowly drifted down, one by one, towards the Immortal Origin Five Domains. However, the wind was not blowing in that direction.

“Do you see that?”

“This …”

Xiao Chen couldn’t help but frown. Why did Wei Yang, whose petals carried Spiritual Energy, faintly seem to have been led in the direction of Xianyuan Five Realms?

“That’s right.”

Hua Wei Yang looked in Xianyuan Five Realms’s direction and slowly said, “Legend has it that when the heavens and earth first opened, there were twelve Earth Spirit Veins in the world. They were the source of all creatures’ Spirit Longevity, and seven of them landed in the Immortal Primordial Grounds of the mortal world. The most abundant Spirit Qi in the mortal world is now …”

At this point, she stopped and turned to look at Xiao Chen. She continued, “Right now, the other Ancient Realm Earth Spirit Veins, either complete or incomplete branches, are slowly being led to Xianyuan Five Realms, and there is a complete Earth Spirit Vein beneath the Mystic Cyan Mountain.”

“You mean …”

At this moment, Xiao Chen’s expression gradually became serious. Of course, he knew that there was an earth spirit vein suppressing beneath the Mystic Cyan Mountain, but what did Wei Yang mean by that?

“If the heavens and the earth were to circulate, there would naturally be nothing strange about it. However, if it was done by human beings, then it would be somewhat terrifying …”

Hua Wei Yang’s expression gradually became serious. Xiao Chen’s eyebrows knitted deeper and deeper. Finally, he shook his head and said, “What manpower did … is impossible.”

He believed that there were some hidden masters whose cultivation had already reached the peak, but he absolutely did not believe that they could seize the power of heaven and earth by themselves. Mortals who wished to become immortals were already going against the heavens, and those who wished to seize the power of heaven and earth were undoubtedly searching for a moon in water.

“Uh …”

At this moment, he suddenly felt his chest tighten and his head dizzy. Hua Wei Yang immediately supported him and said, “What’s wrong?”

“I don’t know … my chest suddenly felt so stuffy, Master … Master!” Xiao Chen covered his chest and his face gradually turned pale. At this moment, he seemed to have sensed something.

At the same time, the Xuanqing Sect was on the Lianfeng Stage.

“Sand, sand, sand …”

Sounds of sweeping the ground intermittently floated on the Immortal Burial Cliff. Daoist Withered Pine was like a day for a hundred years, still sweeping away the fallen leaves on the Immortal Burial Cliff that would never be completely swept away.

At this moment, a gust of dark wind blew over. The vegetation on the edge of the cliff suddenly withered, as if it had been snatched away by something. In a short moment, the entire Lian Feng Tower had already withered away hundreds of grass and fallen leaves. There was no longer a single living vegetation left. The air was filled with the aura of death.

Daoist Kusong seemed to have anticipated something. At this moment, there was not a single ripple on his face. He slowly put down the broom in his hand, but did not turn around. He only calmly said, “You … are back.”
