As the Universe Turns - Chapter 315
Chapter 315 Obstruct
“You … can you do it?”
You Qin frowned. First, she was worried that Hua Weiyang’s cold energy would corrode her body and she would not be able to endure any more torment. Second, she was afraid that her identity as a Nether Race would be exposed.
Shen Jing turned around and looked at her, but did not say anything. Madam Xian Shu said, “Then I’ll have to trouble Miss Shen.” After saying that, he took You Qin and You Chang outside.
Xiao Chen was still standing there alone. Seeing that he was not leaving, Shen Jing frowned and said, “Aren’t you going out yet?”
Xiao Chen still wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn’t say anything. He turned around and went outside. He thought that Shen Jing was skilled in medicine. Back then, his meridians were broken, and she could treat such a serious injury. Now that her medical skills had improved, it shouldn’t be a problem for her to hand Wei Yang over to her.
Outside, Feng Qingyue was bright. Xiao Chen went to the edge of a cliff alone. The moonlight shone on his body at this moment, as if he was a little more worried.
Looking at the faintly discernible mountain range in the distance, he was vaguely familiar with each other. Back then, when he had been to the Dongjie Mountains, he had been chased by Cangfeng Valley Taichang and He Chongtian. Later, he had fallen into an ancient cave. However, by coincidence, he had found the long-lost Qiushui Ancient Sword.
Later on, Ling Yin rushed over and scared the two away. In the end, she went to the top of Mount Qiong and was trapped in a formation by a few great devil sects …
Everything once seemed like smoke and clouds, but at this moment, it slowly unfolded like a painting. Scenes after scenes were deeply imprinted in his mind … The moon was as bright as the beginning, how was Master now?
In the darkness of the night, there was a hint of disappointment.
Xiao Chen took a deep breath and looked at the bright moon in the horizon. He did not know how he had returned to the Profound Green Sect after that time at the peak of Mount Qiong. Later, he heard from his master that he had broken through the restriction of the formation with his primordial spirit power. In a critical moment, it was the sect master and ancestor who had arrived in time to condense his soul that was about to dissipate.
Later, it was Master who stood outside the Heavenly Pivot Hall for a few days before asking Daoist Qingxuan to save him. As for how Daoist Qingxuan used his divine ability to recondense his primordial spirit, he didn’t know. He vaguely remembered that he seemed to have had a dream, a long, long, endless dream.
Dreams are both real and fantastic, He saw many strangers and things, the back of a white-clothed woman playing the zither in a plum forest, a green-clothed woman like a goddess in the Immortal Dimension, and a city. The hillside outside the city gate was covered with grass, and there was always a cat with wings sitting on it, chirping and chattering, as well as two small white and fat beasts …
He had never seen anything in his dreams, but he felt an inexplicable sense of deja vu. He felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart as he repeated this endless dream over and over again. In the end, he vaguely heard Adept Qingxuan’s voice again: Yin and Yang transforming into Ji, Good Fortune seizing life and death, and soul returning …
At that moment, it was as if a pair of hands had pulled him back from a world that did not belong to him. Even though he had woken up from his dream, he still felt bursts of sadness in his heart.
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Chen stood up. A cold breeze blew past his clothes. He recalled that Daoist Qingxuan saved him back then. He owed Daoist Qingxuan a life. However, the palm strike that Daoist Qingxuan struck him at Lian Fengtai was borne by Wei Yang. He could kill many people that time, but he did not kill anyone. He no longer owed Daoist Qingxuan anything.
The past was like smoke, but it was still vivid and unforgettable.
Xiao Chen took two steps forward. A few stones rolled down the cliff at his feet, There wasn’t even a trace of an echo. At this moment, Ku Lingzi’s voice suddenly sounded from behind him, “The world yearns to cultivate. Cultivation is heaven defying. Most people cultivate with only one goal in mind, and that is to break through the situation of life and death and seek longevity. No matter how high their cultivation is, if they can’t escape death in the end, then everything will be empty. Only longevity can have limitless possibilities …”
Xiao Chen said indifferently, “Yes, if you don’t die for long, you can go to see what kind of scenery the world would be like in thousands of years.” “Tens of thousands of years from now, you can see what kind of scenery it would be like in the world at that time.”
‘”Have you never thought of longevity? If you truly control life and death, you can break through your own limits. At that time, you won’t be lamenting for life and death anymore.”
“Longevity?”
Xiao Chen smiled faintly, “Everyone wants to live forever. When the day comes when they truly live forever, they will probably just watch as the people around them die. In the end, they will be left alone without any worries …”
Ku Lingzi walked up from behind and said, “If you really reached that level in the future, you wouldn’t think that way.”
“Then I would rather live a carefree life in this mortal world than let that day come. At that time, even if I want to die, I won’t be able to. How boring would it be?”
Xiao Chen turned around and looked at Ku Lingzi with a faint smile. “Senior, you seem to be very idle tonight. Don’t you need to cultivate with the Soul Returning Jade?”
Ku Lingzi did not reply. He came to the edge of the cliff and stood with his hands behind his back. He looked at the bright moon in the sky and slowly said, “I have seen many people before. All of them want to live forever, or for the people around them …”
At this point, he turned around and looked at Xiao Chen, “Seriously, that girl … What would you do if she died?”
“If she dies, then none of those who hurt her will be able to live …”
Xiao Chen also turned his head. As he spoke, he still had a faint smile on his face. However, Ku Lingzi could clearly see a deep chill in his eyes from his smile. It was as if he had seen the most ruthless chill in the world, causing him to tremble involuntarily.
…
The next morning, everyone stood guard outside the cave. Finally, when Shen Jing came out of the cave, You Chang couldn’t wait to walk up and asked anxiously, “How is Princess? Has the cold energy been suppressed?”
Shen Jing did not say anything. She walked straight towards Xiao Chen. You Jianzong was silent. She was even more anxious. She shouted from behind, “Hey! Are you talking? Otherwise, I’ll go in by myself!”
Shen Jing still ignored him and walked in front of Xiao Chen. Seeing her silence, Xiao Chen frowned slightly. “How is it? Has the cold energy been suppressed?”
Shen Jing nodded lightly. After a while, she said, “The cold energy has been suppressed for the time being, but …”
“But what?”
Seeing her hesitant expression, Xiao Chen furrowed his brows. At this moment, Madam Xian Shu also walked over and said, “Miss Shen, if you encounter any difficulties, you can say it straightforwardly. We can also work together here to think of a way.”
Shen Jing took a deep breath and finally said, “There must be something to save her.”
“I need something …”
You Qin and You Chang exchanged glances. What was needed to save the princess? Could it be some sort of heavenly treasure?
Seeing her slightly furrowed eyebrows, Xiao Chen thought that it was definitely not an ordinary heavenly treasure. It must be something extremely difficult to find. He asked, “Shen Jing, what exactly do you need?”
