The Old Gods Are Whispering

The altar of the bronze palace burns with candles.

Xu Fu sat on the futon, silently looking towards the end of the darkness, the intertwined roots of the golden tree had been completely burned, leaving only ashes all over the ground, floating in the cold wind.

"This thing is called the Godly Candle Tree, but it's not the real body, but a tree root. Venerable Qilin created this independent space in his world back then, and used it as its... petri dish? Hmm, This is what you modern people say. I have read the memories of those outsiders and learned about the outside world."

He explained: "If you want to ask me what the essence of the Zhuzhao God Tree is, then my answer is that I don't know. In the creation myth of the ancient gods, Zhuzhao and Youying were born in the place of creation, and no one knows Is this life, or some kind of law, or something else, in short, people call it the original."

He wanted to continue talking at first, but he suddenly looked at the knife on his neck and couldn't help but said, "Little girl, can you remove your knife from my neck? I'm almost dead .”

"I'm sorry, it's not that I don't trust your character, but I think you will go crazy again. After all, you have been captured by the three ancient supreme beings. No one knows if they will plant some time bomb in your body." Su Youzhu held the Miegui Taidao in both hands, and his eyes were quite focused, like a master of swordsmanship holding his breath.

It's just that the blush from the intimacy just now was still on Qiao's face, and her expression was slightly ashamed.

I don't know if it's because someone saw the post.

Or because the post was interrupted.

Gu Jianlin also sat on a pill stove in embarrassment, and had to admit that the girl was right to be vigilant.

"Well said, indeed it should be."

Xu Fu said with emotion: "But why am I so upset?"

He is a ninth-level Taiyi God. Even in the dying state, his spirituality has been exhausted, but if he really suddenly goes crazy, just two young offspring may not be able to control him.

"Little girl, wait a moment."

He suddenly raised his hand, a pitch-black hole opened in his hand, and a bone-like sword materialized out of thin air.

The sword is about nine feet long, and its whole body is glowing with golden luster, as if it is surrounded by hot sun flames.

The moment Gu Jianlin saw the sword, he felt the throbbing of his soul.

"I think I've seen this before."

Su Youzhu said suspiciously: "When I was a fraud sealer with my teacher, it seemed..."

Xu Fu proudly said: "The name of this sword is Congyun! In the mythology of the Yingzhou people, there is another name called Tianzhicongyun. Conceived from the body of Yamata no Orochi, it is also an ancient ancestor , originally belonged to the Qilin clan, but later devoured the sacred blood of the Zhulong clan and mutated into that kind of monster."

"This is an attempt made by Venerable Qilin. The false ancestors here are all created by Venerable Qilin. I will bury them here together and will not go out to harm others. You can rest assured."

"The Yamata no Orochi is also one of the test subjects. The creation myths of the Yingzhou people basically come from the black supreme. Congyun was once his weapon. This sword can mobilize dark matter and dark energy, and can also To absorb vitality and use it to give back to oneself, but few people can get its recognition."

He smiled and said: "It has an arrogant personality, not very talkative, and is difficult to get along with. The little girl can only threaten me with this sword. Come and touch it for a try?"

Su Youzhu's beautiful eyes lighted up slightly. Obviously, she was very eager for this sword. After all, it was powerful and beautiful. She would be happy for a long time to buy a bag, let alone such a precious ancient item.

She stretched out her hand and grasped the hilt which was as cold as jade, and the blade trembled faintly, as if resisting.

At this moment, Gu Jianlin glanced at the sword.

In an instant, Congyun stopped trembling, and obediently stayed in the girl's palm.

Containment succeeded!

Su Youzhu fiddled with the sword in surprise, felt the power it transmitted, put his arms around the old man's neck again, and said seriously: "Thank you, as expected of Xu Fu, who was captured by the ancient supreme three times. I will Treat this sword well, and it will not insult its reputation, as long as you make a slight move, I will cut off your head."

Xu Fu nodded in relief, but then complained: "You want to cut off my head, I have no objection, can you not talk about the fact that I was captured by the ancient supreme three times? Young people should be a little polite. "

cough cough.

Both Gu Jianlin and Su Youzhu coughed twice, mainly because the old man was too miserable.

Men silent women tears.

Should be in the history books.

"Zhuzhao and Youying are both primordial, and Venerable Qilin, as the fifth born ancient supreme, was conceived by the third power. No one knows what the so-called third power is. In other words, Since there is a Candle Illuminating Divine Tree in this world, there should also be a treasure representing Youying." Xu Fu said calmly.

"Where is the body of the Candle Illumination Tree?"

Su Youzhu asked thoughtfully.

"If nothing else, it's on the top floor of the Qilin Fairy Palace."

Gu Jianlin thought of the huge golden tree, and thought that when the pharmacist led them into the depths of the mausoleum, he probably didn't see the scene outside, otherwise she couldn't have known.

"The young man knows a lot."

Xu Fu shook his head and said, "The Candlelight Divine Tree was always controlled by Venerable Qilin back then, and later usurped by Zhulong and Suzaku in succession. Of course, this is not something you should worry about, just go back and tell your adults .And Penglai Xiandao itself has no mystery of longevity, it's just a hoax."

He sighed: "The roots here are mainly to breed the secret art of spiritual fusion. This kind of secret art can enable the ancient supremes who have adapted to the real world to master the law of candlelight. Of course, the roots bred more than these For example, in the process of the birth of the secret art of spiritual fusion, the secret art of coffin was also derived."

Having said that, he suddenly glanced at the boy.

Gu Jianlin instinctively became nervous, afraid that the old man would see something.

"What's wrong?"

Su Youzhu didn't know that he had mastered the breathing of heaven and man.

"The so-called coffin secret method is to allow a person to walk on the path of heaven and man and the path of evolution at the same time, but this kind of condition is very harsh. There are seven billion people on the earth now, and it would be nice to have one. Back then, Gu Ci An and Tang Zijing broke in and snatched the coffin secret from me."

Xu Fu thought of what happened back then, with mixed feelings: "These are two tenacious little guys, I admire them extremely. Gu Ci'an came in following the traces of Suzaku, and Tang Zijing came here to save someone."

Gu Jianlin vaguely knew who the person who was going to be rescued was.

Su Youzhu asked curiously, "When did Venerable Suzaku come in?"

Xu Fu was silent for a moment, then shook his head.

"I don't know, I was suppressing myself and falling into a deep sleep."

He said frankly: "When I woke up, I was already controlled by him."

Gu Jianlin and Su Youzhu looked at each other and nodded slightly.

"Senior, this matter is strange."

He asked in a deep voice: "In the Qilin Immortal Palace, a strange thing ran out at that time. That person pretended to be Gu Ci'an, and killed wantonly in the underground palace under the sea. I want to know what it is."

Su Youzhu added: "Even the ninth-level Taixushen will be injured."

Xu Fu was slightly taken aback: "You guys said that, I did feel that there was indeed something killing wantonly in the first floor of the Qilin Immortal Palace at that time, and it seemed to have fallen into a state of extreme madness. The ancestor of the Kuilong was at that time Those who were injured by that thing had no choice but to hold a sacrifice."

"After that sacrificial sacrifice failed, the ancestor of Kuilong had to take the risk of building a dragon nest deep in the sea of ​​eternal life. This is a last resort, because Venerable Candle Dragon will inevitably come here, and he will be in danger."

"And Venerable Suzaku is his only hope."

It turned out to be like this.

Gu Jianlin suddenly realized that that ghost could even defeat the ancestor.

I always feel that the closer to the truth, the more confusing.

Su Youzhu suddenly asked: "Then you left "Xu Fu Ji"?"

Xu Fu's complexion changed slightly, and he hurriedly said: "Don't touch that thing, it's a trap! Venerable Qilin controlled me at first, leaving such a secret passage, which can be directly transmitted to him. Without exception, Those who entered the depths of the mausoleum should all be devoured by him."

Su Youzhu was terrified. She thought it was luck that she survived in front of that supreme being.

She knew that the ancient supreme was not worried about being trapped at all.

Stupid pharmacist thief!

"What's wrong?"

Gu Jianlin knew what she was afraid of, so he asked this question on purpose.

"No, nothing."

Su Youzhu pretended to be calm, but her heart was beating wildly.

Ah.

Gu Jianlin thought about this stupid priestess.

"The next thing I'm going to say is something else."

Xu Fu pointed to the pile of burning ashes: "The root of the Candlelight God Tree was destroyed because it was pierced by a broken knife. The group of people who came in just now have been teleported out, died in the illusion world, and returned to Naturally, the outside world will not be able to survive in the future. But the problem is, the origin of the broken knife is unusual, and I can't see what it is."

Gu Jianlin asked suspiciously, "Broken knife?"

The broken knife is no longer here.

"Grandma Si prepared a back-up, right? The military adviser let him in, it must be for the so-called eldest lady."

Su Youzhu pondered for a moment: "Skylark, this is her code name, one of the most mysterious members of Twilight."

"In short, no matter who it is, this person's background is not simple and needs to be treated with caution. As for your friends, they have all been sent out. They are all fine and have their own adventures. Including the two god servants of the Qilin clan, and even Both of them have advanced." Xu Fu looked around with nostalgic eyes.

"The catastrophe is approaching, Venerable Suzaku has great plans, and I still don't know what he is going to do. Venerable Zhulong is about to reach the peak of violence, and no one can stop it. Venerable Qilin disappeared without a trace, which is strange and unpredictable .Everything revolves around the Divine Candle Tree. This thing is very important. Humans must climb to the top to find out! You must take what happened here and tell the guardians of the human world."

He sighed and said: "Although the first emperor is gone, he has successors. Today's guardians of order are really talents from the sky. They are the best in the past and the present. I believe that with the transformation of heaven and man, even the ancient supreme If we break the rules of the real world, it will not completely subvert human civilization."

"Although my emperor is no longer here, it is a blessing for the human world that the inheritance he left behind can be carried forward. This world will eventually be guarded by you young people. What we old guys have to do is to persist as much as possible. A little longer, and then bend your spine and let you step on it."

"It is my blessing to meet such outstanding young people as you."

Rumble.

The world burst into a roar of collapse.

Time and space shattered like a mirror, reflecting countless illusory scenes.

This is the disordered phenomenon that the authority left by Venerable Suzaku was about to collapse.

Su Youzhu suddenly froze.

Because in the shattered space-time mirror, a young girl was actually reflected. She had ear-length black short hair, was wearing a thick down jacket, and was carrying a sword on her back, jumping around in the snow.

Suddenly, the head of a living corpse emerged from the snow, grinning at her.

The little girl was frightened and cried immediately, sitting in the snow and screaming.

The man snapped his fingers, and suddenly exploded the living corpse's head, then pinched his waist and laughed.

The more the girl cries, the more the man laughs.

In the end, the man let the girl sit on his shoulders, and strode into the depths of the wind and snow.

Gu Jianlin watched this scene in silence and smiled silently.

Su Youzhu covered her vermilion lips, those dusty memories came whistling like a wind and snow, moistening her eyes.

"This is my last gift to you. Gu Ci'an should be someone very important to you, right? At the beginning, this person almost tried his best to lift his curse. Although he is no longer here, you It is the inheritance he left behind. You are alive, and you still remember him, so he has not completely disappeared."

Xu Fu turned around, looked at the boy and girl in front of him, smiled and said, "I'm almost at the end of my life, thank you for coming here, thank you for saving me."

Gu Jianlin was silent for a moment, then said softly: "Thank you senior, I will sort out your deeds when I go back, and let the whole world know that you were never a traitor in the human world, but a hero."

Su Youzhu took his hand and bowed deeply with him.

"hero……"

Xu Fu couldn't help laughing, but his cloudy eyes became moist, and he said softly: "I'm sorry for doing those bad things to you. Um...you, can you help me go to Mount Li and offer a stick of incense to the First Emperor?"

He raised his old face, and there was a hint of pleading in his tone.

Gu Jianlin and Su Youzhu nodded vigorously: "Of course."

Xu Fu smiled happily, and looked at them with more gentle eyes.

With a bang, the world collapsed.

Su Youzhu also turned into a vague phantom and gradually dissipated.

At the last moment, Gu Jianlin felt something more in his hand, it was something like a night pearl, with a secret light flowing through it, it didn't look like an ordinary thing.

Xu Fu took a deep look at him, but didn't explain what it was.

The old man looked up to the sky and laughed three times, his voice was so old, but so carefree.

He finally broke through the cage of more than two thousand years and died with freedom and dignity.

"Your Majesty, I have come to see you."

With the collapse of the world, he shattered into crystal clear debris all over the sky.

Be loyal to the emperor.

Keep righteousness for the human world.

Xu Fu did everything he could before he died.

Achieve long-cherished wish.
