Barrier of Light

Equivalent exchange.

This is why "wishes" can come true.

There is no free gift in this world... and if you put a wish on one side of the scale, you are destined to put an equivalent sacrifice on the other side.

"ten years……"

Gu Shen looked at Li Qingci in the cave in the distance with a complicated expression.

How many decades can a person have in his life? Is it really worth it in exchange for one more meeting?

He couldn't bear it.

"Mr. Xiao Gu..." As if she could see Gu Shen's thoughts at this moment, Li Qingci said seriously: "If it only takes ten years to wait for you, I think it is worth it."

There are countless guardians on the temple mountain.

They gave it ten years after another.

Just waited until today.

In this dark abyss, the guardians of the Li family have countless sacrifices placed on the scales... They are countless lives that died young, countless people who dedicated themselves to nothingness. Heroic soul.

"Perhaps, in this era... Shenci Mountain may not be able to hatch a divine fetus..." Gu Shen couldn't bear it, so he warned, "Or maybe, all of this is fake."

"But what Celadon has given is true." Li Qingci smiled and said, "I have been here and contributed, and that is enough. If I will eventually end up in nothingness, why should I look back at the past?"

People who can use the "Prayer Technique" must be such an innocent person.

Hear this.

The deepest chord in Gu Shen's heart was suddenly touched.

"These flowers... I'll try to clear them, do my best."

He took a deep breath and said slowly: "But I can't guarantee how much it can help Shenci Mountain."

Hearing this, Li Qingci was startled for a moment, then quickly suppressed the joy in her heart and said sincerely: "Thank you very much."

She held her breath and watched carefully.

In the distant mountain wall.

The young man slowly put down the extinguished [Lantern] and came to a cliff covered in black. A wisp of blazing fire first rose from the center of his eyebrows, then swept out to reach his arms, and finally gathered in the palm of his hand.

Gu Shen picked several black flowers.

Just like how he cleared the "black spots" on Yuandan Street... the blazing fire burst out with a strong "devouring intention", but this time, his control was much stronger, and there would never be "extraordinary loss of control" again. "scene.

Flames danced in the palm of his hand, eagerly asking Gu Shen's wishes.

If Gu Shen doesn't nod.

Then even if the "black flower" is held in your hand, the blazing fire will not engulf it.

Gu Shen looked solemn as he carefully examined the flowers in his palm...these black spots were just weird in shape and looked like flowers, but they were actually the disordered condensation after the "collapse of order".

In other words.

This is the "black spot", which can be completely consumed by fire.

He conveyed his will: "Eat."

After getting Gu Shen's permission... that wisp of flame started eating crazily without hesitation!

This scene made Li Qingci startled.

That pale and haggard face was faintly flushed with excitement. Can these indelible flowers of death really be eliminated? !

For six hundred years, the Li family has been using the "wishing technique" to fight against the curse and disaster of the Shenci Mountain.

The "guardians" who guard the sacred mountain here often only have one sentence to pass on to future generations.

“Hope lies behind despair.”

The wishing technique brings people hope, but only illusory hope is not enough to support people moving forward... Li Qingci has already prepared for the worst, and she can accept all the consequences.

If Gu Shen can't do anything about "Black Flower"... He spent ten years but found the wrong person.

She still has no regrets.

Facts have proved that the words left by the senior guardians are correct.

After despair, she saw hope.

In just a few dozen seconds, where Gu Shen was standing, the "flower bush" entangled with a large area of ​​darkness and gloom was cleared away... revealing the original bluestone cliff of the Shenci Mountain.

Under the "black spot corrosion" that lasted for hundreds of years, this wonderful place was riddled with holes.

The exposed rocks exude an aura of dilapidation and death.

The blazing fire between Gu Shen's brows swam happily in this land of silence. To it... this "forbidden land of death" where ordinary people would die if they touched it, was actually a "pure and blessed land".

"This speed of absorbing the essence... is much faster than when I performed tasks in Dadu before."

Gu Shen also felt faintly shocked.

I have been performing missions in Dadu for several months, and the source of essence I have collected, even if I include the private collection of the followers of the Long-term Foundation who were finally eliminated, is only slightly more than what I am currently devouring in a moment of blazing fire!

Blazing Fire is a tiny baby.

Its growth requires a large amount of source material...

The "wilderness" that Gu Shen had just condensed needed to be nourished by a large amount of extraordinary sources. These extraordinary sources were originally an ocean eye that could not be filled...

He originally thought that if the source material was not enough.

Then go to the Qing Tomb and discuss with the tomb guardians to absorb part of the "source essence" to carry out your own extraordinary practice... There will be certain risks in doing so.

Although Qing Tomb is a miraculous place in Dongzhou, accumulating a sea-like source of essence, [Wind Tong] is always monitoring the extraordinary weather outside the tomb. Once someone tries to "steal" the source of essence, they will be immediately Three found.

But now these wild flowers in "Shenci Mountain" have directly solved Gu Shen's biggest problem.

Blazing fire swims among the flowers.

This large tangle of dark flowers caused ripples of "fear", but it was a pity that they became "food" at this moment. The blazing fire opened its bloody mouth and swept across the black spots wherever it passed!

This scene looks a bit funny...

The black flowers all over the mountains and plains staggered around in fear, avoiding the young man eating the flowers.

In front of Gu Shen, a large area of ​​the mountain wall was swept away.

The space around me was originally filled with suffocating darkness, but now it has eased a little and is no longer oppressive.

"……belch!"

That little flame, after eating a full stomach, went back home contentedly, and slowly swayed back to Gu Shen's eyebrows.

Gu Shen used his mind to let him go to the other side to eat some more.

Blazing Fire was indifferent and lay down lazily... Finally, the little flame made a move. It shook its head at Gu Shen, indicating that it was really full and couldn't eat anymore.

About half an hour passed... The stone wall in front of him was relatively clean, but...

Look up.

In front of you is endless mountains and plains, flowers and mountains.

This stone wall is really small and pitiful in comparison.

After another effort, Chihuo lay flat on his back completely. Gu Shen felt a little embarrassed and looked at Li Qingci.

"……I tried my best."

Li Qingci fell into silence.

Just now, she had already discovered a problem while watching the blazing fire devour the black spots.

Perhaps it was because the young man in front of him was not strong enough.

At this rate...the black spots on Shenci Mountain may one day be cleared away.

But I'm afraid I can't wait any longer.
