The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 141
Chapter 141 Psychedelic Forest
The two of them passed through the terrifying abyss and continued to walk towards the depths of the thick purple mist.
After walking for another distance, a purple forest suddenly appeared in front of him.
This was a very strange forest. Although there were trees growing on it, its entire body was purple. It was an abnormal green color, making people look unreal and lifeless. The same was true of the weeds on the ground. The leaves were all purple and extremely strange.
The forest was deathly silent, without any wind or grass, filled with a gloomy feeling. It didn’t look like a good place.
“This place doesn’t feel good. Do you want to go in?” Liu Ke’er said in fear.
“Of course!” Li Qing replied with certainty, “There is no room for manoeuvre at this point. After entering, there will definitely be some kind of danger. You must be careful.”
The two of them rested outside for a while, adjusted their spirits to their best condition, finished their preparations, and then directly walked in.
As soon as he entered, Li Qing felt that something was wrong. He turned around and saw that Liu Ke’er was gone!
He was shocked and panicked. He looked around and saw that there was not a single person in the vast purple expanse.
“Ke’er, where are you?”
He shouted loudly, his voice echoing through the dead forest, causing ripples that did not receive any response.
“How could this be?” Li Qing frowned and felt very uneasy in his heart.
This kind of situation felt familiar.
“Right!” He suddenly remembered that back in the stone room in Hundred Flowers Valley, he had encountered the same situation. When the two of them walked out of the stone room together, Liu Ke’er suddenly disappeared. It was very strange.
“This is an illusion!” By contrast, Li Qing immediately understood in his heart, “So that’s how it is. I’m scared to death!”
He patted his chest and finally calmed down. As long as his life wasn’t in danger, he would definitely meet again after leaving the illusion.
He continued forward.
As he walked, Li Qing suddenly felt that his vision was a little blurry. Then, the scene constantly changed. The surrounding scenery changed greatly, and he found himself in another world.
“What’s going on?” He felt as if he had forgotten something.
The illusion had blinded his memories, making it impossible for him to distinguish between the dreamlike reality. He only thought that the place he was currently in was real, not an illusion.
He looked up and saw that his body was currently squatting amidst a pile of rubble. The surrounding scenery was very familiar.
“This is at the foot of Purple Cloud Mountain!” Li Qing was shocked.
He lowered his head and saw that it was clearly him from many years ago. His cultivation base had disappeared, and his strength of 20,000 jin had also disappeared.
“Could it be that I’ve transmigrated back?” He muttered to himself.
In front of him was a mountain passageway. This was a passageway shaped like a gourd. On both sides were piles of rocks and weeds. He was squatting in the pile of stones, very concealed.
In the distance, Zaro and the four Diamonds were walking towards this place.
This scene was too familiar!
Li Qing quickly remembered. Wasn’t this the place where he had ambushed Zarro back then? It was in this place that he cut off his head and changed his life.
Now, he had returned to this place once again and experienced this once again. It seemed that the heavens had given him a new chance to choose.
Could it be that there was a will of heaven in the dark?
Once again, at the entrance of the mountain path, Zarro was walking this way. There was almost no time for him to think about it, nor did he have any time to make any other preparations.
He had to make a choice right away. Kill or not?
If he still chose to kill Zarro as before, then the tragedy would repeat itself. He would be captured by the four Diamonds and executed in front of the ancestral temple. And his mother would be willing to sacrifice the Heavenly Blood Sacrificial Saber in order to save him!
In other words, if he continued with this saber strike, he would kill his mother!
In order to avoid a repeat of the tragedy, would he spare Zarro’s life?
Seeing that Zaluo and the Four Great Diamonds were getting closer and closer, and that time was getting shorter and shorter, Li Qing had already reached the time to make a decision.
“If I don’t kill Zarro now, then they will also go after my mother. At that time, the outcome will be even worse.” Li Qing gritted his teeth and said, “If I really surrender like this, it’s possible that my mother and I will die at their hands in the end, and Zarro will even take away the Purple Sun Fist!”
“Being a person who keeps on enduring, you will only get close to a foot in exchange! Rather than that, why don’t you just kill him and kill him! Kill him! Kill him! Kill him! Kill him! Kill him!”
Li Qing instantly rushed out.
Saber light flashed, and a human head flew up, blood splashing everywhere…
…
The scene changed again. Li Qing discovered that he was no longer at the foot of Purple Cloud Mountain and was at the end of the road to heaven.
This was the scene when he had just entered the sect.
He walked out of the path of ascending to heaven and saw Elder Liu and Liu Ke’er already waiting there.
What familiar scenes, what familiar people and objects!
Elder Liu asked, “You must choose a mountain to join. May I know which mountain you want to choose, Little Friend Li?”
Li Qing couldn’t help but be stunned. Which mountain did he join?
He couldn’t help but think far away, recalling what had happened afterwards. If he still chose to join Flaming Sun Peak as before, then he would surely die in the future. Everyone in Flaming Sun Peak would die in that great calamity.
Since he already knew the result, would he still choose Flaming Sun Peak to join in the face of death?
He couldn’t help but look at Elder Liu and Liu Ke’er. The two closest people in his life after this were only just casual acquaintances.
Right now, he did not take Elder Liu as his teacher, nor did he fall in love with Liu Ke’er.
He still had a choice, and would not be charged with betrayal. He didn’t have to choose the Flaming Sun Peak. It was human nature to seek benefits and avoid harm. If he chose the Golden Emperor Peak or the Cyanwood Peak, he would be able to survive.
“Little friend Li, what are you thinking?” Seeing that Li Qing had been silent for so long, Elder Liu asked, “Which mountain do you want to join? If you don’t understand anything in your heart, you can let me know. I can help you resolve your doubts.”
“No, there’s nothing I don’t understand.” Li Qing smiled and said firmly, “I choose to join Flaming Sun Peak!”
Without Elder Liu and Liu Ke’er, what would be the meaning of his future life? Even if he could survive, it was no different from dying.
…
The scene changed again, and he appeared in a quiet and quiet courtyard. Beside him sat Elder Liu and Liu Ke’er.
Elder Liu said, “In a while, our entire Eight Desolate Sect will have a hunting activity. At that time, the two of you will also have to participate, form a team together, and take care of each other.”
“Alright.” Liu Ke’er happily agreed.
Li Qing was somewhat silent, because he knew that he and Liu Ke’er were going to be chased by Xu Hao Yang during this hunt, experiencing a terrible life and death crisis!
That crisis was extremely dangerous. If he experienced it again, Li Qing was not confident that he could survive.
Right now, he was faced with such a choice.
If he didn’t participate in this hunt, wouldn’t he be able to escape this calamity?
However, if he really did, the future would change. Would he still have the chance to fall in love with Liu Ke’er?
After all, it was during this life-and-death crisis that his relationship with Liu Ke’er rapidly heated up, and he confirmed his lover relationship. From then on, life and death depended on each other, not abandoning each other.
Without this life and death experience, would they still be able to maintain the deep feelings they had for each other in the end?
“Li Qing, what’s wrong? Are you unwilling to participate in this hunt?” Elder Liu couldn’t help but ask.
“Of course!” Li Qing blurted out and said without any hesitation, “Of course I am willing to participate. This time, I will team up with Ke’er to protect her from any harm.”
His tone was filled with sincerity and determination.
He didn’t want any changes to occur in the future.
So what if he was in danger? In order to fall in love with Liu Ke’er, no matter what she did, she had no regrets. Moreover, he could kill Xu Haoyang in the past, and he would definitely be able to do so now!
…
After he said that, he felt relaxed, as if he had broken through some shackles, and his mind became clear.
The memories that had been blinded by the illusion returned to his mind.
Suddenly, the scene changed again and he returned to the purple forest.
“So it was unknowingly pulled into the Heart Demon Illusion!” Li Qing muttered to himself.
He couldn’t help but break out in cold sweat when he recalled the life choices he had encountered in the illusion. His consciousness was blocked by the illusion, making him unaware that it was an illusion. He thought that he had transmigrated back to the past.
These illusions were truly terrifying. They could actually deceive people’s memories, guide people’s subconscious, and make it difficult for people to discover them unknowingly.
He had gone through the past once again and made a firm choice, making his heart even purer and more condensed.
He calmed down and continued to walk forward. Soon after, he walked out of this strange forest.
At first glance, a beautiful figure appeared in front of her. It was Liu Ke’er.
