As the Universe Turns - Chapter 317
Chapter 317 Before Leaving
Shen Jing looked at him and continued, “Besides, her lifespan is about to expire. Although the seed of the evergreen flower leaves contains boundless life force, the life force is not equal to the lifespan. Everyone has their own lifespan. When their lifespan expires, it is their fate. Even thousands of Fiendgods cannot escape the fate of life and death … Do you understand?”
After a long time, Xiao Chen finally calmed down. Destiny … Destiny, no wonder Ku Lingzi suddenly mentioned the matter of longevity to him last night. Could it be that he also discovered it?
“Then what should I do now?”
‘”I need the Fusang Flower. The Fusang Flower has the ability to revive the dead. I can use it to wake her up. Otherwise, she might fall asleep forever …”
“Fusang Flower …”
Xiao Chen closed his eyes deeply. The Fusang Flower only existed in legends. So, was there really such a thing in this world?
“I can bring her back to Butterfly Valley and use the Spirit Pivot Scripture to protect her from extinguishing a wisp of her soul flame, and then wait for you to bring back the Fusang Flower. However … it may take a very long time to find the Fusang Flower. Three, five, ten years … in the end, you may not necessarily be able to find it. You must be mentally prepared,” Shen Jing said.
“Is this the only way?” Xiao Chen looked at her.
Shen Jing frowned slightly. He shook his head. “there is a second way, I wouldn’t do that, Even if the reincarnation mark was removed, it would be frozen forever. However, after that, the soul flame would also be extinguished. Although her body would never be extinguished, she no longer had any consciousness. It would be useless to find anything at that time. There was only a heaven-defying method that could wake her up. However, when she woke up again, the world would have already experienced great changes. Perhaps a thousand years later, or even ten thousand years later … ”
…
At this moment, outside the cave, You Chang quietly pulled You Qin to the side. He looked towards the cave, lowered his head and whispered, “I don’t think that Shen Jing has any other choice. Otherwise, let’s find a way to send a message back to His Highness the Second Prince.”
“No …”
You Qin shook her head and said, “I tried it last night. Any spiritual information has been interrupted. For some reason, the passageway between the two worlds suddenly seems to be completely sealed. Even a princess may not be able to travel freely between the two worlds, let alone His Highness and the others …”
“How could this be …”
You Chang’s face was shocked. He looked towards the cave again. He was unable to send a message back, and the two Highnesses and High Priests were unable to return to the Mortal Realm. Isn’t all that hope now on Shen Jing?
After a while, Shen Jing and Xiao Chen walked out of the cave. Madam Xian Shu immediately walked forward with a slightly nervous expression, “How is it?”
On the other side of the cave in the distance, Guisi also walked over and looked at the two nervously. After a long time, Xiao Chen said, “I’m going to find the Fusang Flower.”
Hearing this, Madam Xian Shu’s heart finally sank. In the end, she had no other choice but to search for the legendary flower of the divine tree. “Then do you know … where is the Fusang Divine Tree?”
Xiao Chen did not say anything. He turned around and slowly looked towards the far east. He slowly said, “At sunrise, the Golden Crow once appeared there.”
After hearing this, everyone fell silent. According to ancient records, the Fusang Divine Tree grew in the sunrise, the legendary Yang Valley. But wouldn’t it have to cross the vast East China Sea to find it?
Throughout the ages, how many people wanted to cross the East China Sea to search for the Boundless Immortal Mountain, but in the end, they either returned without success or died in the stomach of a fish?
“But crossing the East China Sea is … too difficult.” Guisi walked up, a little puzzled on his face.
Xiao Chen looked at the boundless mountain range to the east. It was already very difficult to cross the Dongjie Mountains. He had to cross the East China Sea again … but no matter what, he had to give it a try.
In ancient times, there were people who bragged and died before reaching Yu Yuan. Now, in order to save Wei Yang, even if he used all of his strength, he still had to find the Yang Valley.
Seeing that he had already made up his mind, everyone stopped talking. Shen Jing walked up and said, “Let’s leave this place first. We’ll discuss it tonight.”
Everyone immediately set off, and when night fell, they arrived at the deeper parts of the Dongjie Mountains.
Tonight the moon was brighter. Xiao Chen climbed a cliff alone and looked at the place where Moon had risen. There were mountains, but there was no end to them. The cold wind blew down the mountain, causing his clothes to chase.
“I’ve already told her about Madam Xian Shu. After this storm is over, I’ll bring Hua Weiyang back to Butterfly Valley.”
Shen Jing slowly walked up the hillside. Xiao Chen didn’t say anything. He still looked at the endless mountain range under the curtain of night. After a long time, he turned around and looked at her. “I don’t know when I’ll be back this time. Before that, Wei Yang … I’ll leave it to you.”
“Don’t worry.”
Shen Jing walked up. For some reason, even though she knew that this trip was extremely dangerous, she still preferred that Xiao Chen leave the Immortal Origin Five Regions. She would return after the storm had subsided, lest she be dragged into a deeper vortex and be unable to escape. At the same time, she hoped that at that time, he would already have enough strength to fight against the people who secretly laid out the plan.
Xiao Chen took a deep breath and turned around. He looked at the mountain range in front of him and remained silent.
He knew that everything was restricted because he wasn’t strong enough. If he went out to sea this time, even if he couldn’t comprehend the Heavenly Dao as Ku Lingzi had said, he had to try his best to break through his current cultivation. Otherwise, even if he returned, he would still be in a passive position. Now that he couldn’t even defeat an elder of the Heavenly Gate, how could he talk about fighting against the Heavenly Gate?
“Yichen …”
At this moment, a man’s voice came from below the hillside. The two turned around and saw that Guisi was leaning on a wooden staff. Shen Jing frowned and said, “You’re not well yet. Why did you come out again?”
“It doesn’t matter.”
Guisi shook his head and smiled. He slowly walked up and looked at Xiao Chen. “Do you really want to go to the East China Sea?”
Xiao Chen took a deep breath and looked at the distant night. He did not answer him directly. Instead, he said, “If one day, Poria suffers and only one thing in the world can save her, so what if Brother Si Que?”
But Guisi understood what he meant, and smiled softly, “If that’s the case, I’ll go wherever I go to find that thing and save her, even when I come back, the world will already be filled with vicissitudes.”
Xiao Chen turned around and smiled at each other.
“Forget it, wait for you to come back, then treat me to a drink …”
Guisi smiled and looked at the darkness in the east. “It’s just that when I was at the Heaven Gate, I heard Daoist Yushan say that Xianyuan’s ancient land was boundless. On the other side of the East China Sea, there was an ancient and mysterious Oriental Cultivation World. Speaking of which, the five domains of Xianyuan have only ten thousand years of history since the creation of Qing Emperor. If it was that ancient Orient …”
At this point, he turned around and looked at Xiao Chen. “Yichen, you have to be careful. There might be more experts there. If you really can’t find the Fusang Flower, you can come back.”
