Chapter Five Hundred and Fortieth Nine: Gap
On winter nights, everything is shrouded in darkness, but the sharp shadow can still be clearly distinguished. This is the alchemy room.
In front of him was this building that looked pitch black, and a strange feeling filled the entire alchemy room.
In the sky, heavy snow kept falling, but strangely, the falling snowflakes formed a curve in the air, perfectly bypassing the alchemy room.
The barrier that Huang Yuchen had set up before had disappeared, and the courtyard of the alchemy room was filled with snow. Jiying squinted his eyes. He clearly saw that in the dark alchemy room, there was a little bright flame that was looming.
Jiying instantly understood what was going on, and he didn't care whether he was in an illusion now, nor did he care about Duanmuhuai anymore, but instead walked straight into the alchemy room with a steady step.
In the center of the alchemy room hall, the huge alchemy furnace has been opened. The faint light of fire just now can be seen clearly in the hall. The fire in the alchemy furnace has been extinguished, and in the middle of the alchemy furnace, a round object is slowly floating and suspended in the alchemy furnace.
On the left and right, you can clearly feel the rapid flow of natural forces. They seem to form a perfect cycle, moving forward and retreating in the alchemy furnace, but they are not absorbed by the objects in the alchemy furnace.
A figure appeared after the Dan Furnace, and Jiying frowned. The man was his old friend and asked him to take care of Huang Yuchen, the lord of the Eastern Palace, Xiao Yibao.
At this moment, Xiao Yibo was holding Duo'er who had already fainted. Her tender little face was rosy, and it seemed that she was frozen very lightly.
"What are you going to do?" Jiying's eyes were about to split, and he roared while rushing forward, but the next moment, he stopped his movements because Xiao Yibo was already standing on the alchemy furnace, and it seemed that he was about to throw Duo'er into the alchemy furnace.
Xiao Yibo's eyes looked at Jiying very complicated, mixed with guilt and apology, but he didn't say a word from beginning to end, and just stood quietly on the alchemy furnace and looked at Jiying quietly.
"Shunquan..." Jiying stepped forward, looked at Duoer in Xiao Yibo's arms with concern, and said in a hurry: "If you have anything to tell me, she is innocent."
Xiao Yibo looked at Duo'er in his hand, then looked at Jiying, and didn't say anything, but just shook his head gently. He didn't mean to throw Duo'er into the alchemy furnace immediately, nor did he mean to let her go.
"Don't you understand?" At this moment, Duanmu Huai's old and hoarse voice came from behind Jiying. Jiying turned around and saw Duanmu Huai floating in the air, holding a crutch in his hand, walking step by step towards him.
Jiying looked serious, he stood up straight, and at this time, everything was understood.
Since Xiao Yibo went to Vision Building to find himself, he had already planned all this. The purpose of all is to bring Duoer here. Their goal has never been himself, but Duoer.
They used the provisions of the Vision Building contract to lead themselves here, and then used the time they left Vision Building to plunder Duoer. There were not many people in the Chihong Sect who could do this.
But what Jiying never expected was that those who did all this would be Xiao Yibao and his old friend.
"The matter has been concluded." Duanmuhuai walked to Jiying's side a few steps, turned around and looked at him faintly, and said, "The boy from the East Prince's Mansion should be the key to opening the door, but..." As he said, Duanmuhuai looked at Duo'er, the little girl in Xiao Yibo's arms, with a gentle look, and continued, "She is the key to finding the exact location of the door. Jiying, the situation has arrived, don't you think you can stay out of it, do you?"
Jiying didn't say anything, he stared at Xiao Yibo. He didn't know what Xiao Yibo was calculating, nor did he know what Xiao Yibo's purpose was. He could never believe that Xiao Yibo would deceive himself.
Xiao Yibo looked at Jiying lightly, and did not avoid his gaze, but the guilty look in his eyes did not diminish. His hands holding Duoer were tight, for fear that he would accidentally throw her into the alchemy furnace.
"Thirty years ago, you Shunxingzhe and Chihong Sect reached a contract and used your junior sister's body as a guide to suppress the gap. Who would have thought that there is really a saying in this world that rebirth is really the case." Duanmuhuai chuckled on his face, looked at Xiao Yibo, and whispered: "The thirty years have arrived. If you don't open the door on your own initiative, Chihong Sect and Shunxingzhe will be destroyed, and even this world will be destroyed. Jiying, is this really what you want?"
"You don't have to speak of benevolence, righteousness and morality." Jiying looked at Duanmu Huai, and murderous intent suddenly appeared in his eyes: "You want to open the path, but you just want to lift the curse on you. Finally, you have never cared about the world, the people, and the others. You have told me, where are the more than a hundred inner disciples of Chihong Sect now? I have gone to the fifth-level hall, and there is no one. Only Shunquan and I can enter the world of Shunxingzhe. How did you get in? Do I need to explain these one by one?"
"Dunmuhuai, I don't care what you want to do. I can't care about the boy from the East Prince's Mansion. I can't bear the punishment for violating the contract, but Duo'er, you can't move." Jiying looked at Duanmuhuai, his eyes were bloodshot, and the wound on his chest was severely painful, but none of this could replace his inner pain. He originally thought that he would never trust anyone again, until he saw Xiao Yibao again.
It was because of this meeting that he regretted now that he wanted to kill himself with his own hands. He could not have thought that Xiao Yibo would set up a plan for him, nor did he think that Duanmu Huai would actually master this secret to this level.
At this moment, Jiying was excited and the tyrannical power evaporated in his body, but he didn't dare to move. He knew that if Xiao had tried and let go, Duo'er would not exist in this world.
This little girl who holds all his hopes, this genius girl who calls his father, is the continuation of his junior sister's life, the woman who seals the gaps in time and space with her own life.
Back then, he couldn't save his junior sister, but now he has to work hard to save Duo'er.
"Everything is natural." Duanmu Huai glanced at Jiying lightly, and said in a low tone, "I use all the inner disciples of Chihong Sect to sacrifice. This is understandable. If you want to open the seal of time and space, it is absolutely impossible to complete without continuous and stable power. They sacrificed their lives for the continuation of Chihong Sect. As the leader of Chihong Sect, I will always remember it. If even I, the leader, cannot survive in the catastrophe, they will never have any chance. Instead of dying together at that time, let them dedicate their strength to gain a possible future. Is it wrong for me to do this?"
Jiying didn't say anything, Duanmuhuai's tone seemed to be telling a common thing, offering all the inner disciples of Chihong Sect to the point of finding this illusory seal of time and space?
"You don't have to look at me like this." Duanmu Huai looked at Jiying lightly and said, "What I did is Huairou compared to others. Are you blind in what happened in the Qitian Empire now? You can't see the heavy snow falling from the sky? What do you think are these? Do you have a natural disaster?"
"I am not the only one who wants to open the time and space tunnel. Countless people have finally found a way to open the time and space gap. But you instant pedestrians suddenly appeared and insisted on blocking the gap and making a thirty-year agreement. Don't you think it's ridiculous? Why do people who practice? Who is not practicing for fame, wealth and long life span. With the opportunity to live for eternity, wouldn't you behave like these people?" Duanmu Huai became more and more excited, and said, almost shouting. Xiao Yibo listened quietly, and his expression did not change at all. It seemed that he had clearly understood the words Duanmu Huai said from the beginning.
"Dou'er, do whatever you like!" Jiying stared at Duanmuhuai and said word by word.
"Don't ask me about this, go and ask your good friend. Now Duo'er is in his hand, and I haven't grabbed it." Duanmuhuai said, stepped forward, walked straight to the alchemy furnace, gently touched it, as if he was talking to himself: "Thanks to my disciples, otherwise this core would have dissipated long ago."
Jiying looked up and looked at Xiao Yibo standing on the alchemy furnace. His eyes flashed. He didn't know what to say. Based on his understanding of Xiao Yibo, if he did this, he would have his reasons, and this reason was something that Xiao Yibo himself had to do.
"This is not my original intention." Xiao Yibo looked at Jiying, with a strong apology in his eyes: "I didn't expect that she could actually be transformed. But the thirty years have passed, and my life has collapsed. Before I die, I must keep the only thing left in the world and not let this catastrophe swallow everything."
"It has nothing to do with her." Jiying's voice was almost trembling. He looked at Xiao Yibo and whispered: "When she appeared, I had already investigated. She was completely separated from the core. She was already an independent person. Everything before had nothing to do with Duo'er. Shunquan, even if you put her into the alchemy furnace, it would only waste her life in vain. She could no longer integrate with the core."
When Xiao Yibo heard this, he closed his eyes, took a deep breath and said, "Jiying, feelings influence your ability to see things clearly. This little girl is robbing the fortune of heaven and earth, and is about to break through the barrier of martial arts at the age of six. Do you think this is normal? When sealing the gap, the junior sister once touched the real limit. Who knows that there is no ability to leave the limit in this little girl's body. You have never thought about it in other directions if she can reach such a high level of cultivation in such a short time?"
"I was influenced by emotions?" Jiying heard this, his eyes suddenly froze, looked at Xiao Yibao, and said sternly: "Aren't you? All you do now is to end all this and let the East Prince's Mansion continue to exist? Are you doing all this just to preserve the fire seed for the East Prince's Mansion? Instead of helping Duanmuhua, you and me should join forces to kill Duanmuhua, and then seal the crack again. In any case, once the crack is broken, everything will be wiped out, and everything you cherish will be gone!"
Xiao Yibo looked at Jiying with a complicated expression. Instead of speaking immediately, he lowered his head and looked at Duo'er who was unconscious in his arms. Then he sighed softly and said, "Jiying, I don't know when, you and me have their own bonds. But things are not as simple as you imagined. Thirty years ago, things were too big. Almost all the masters in this world have heard of this secret. The temptation of eternal life is something that no one can resist."
Jiying frowned and said softly: "The instant walker can."
...
At this moment, Huang Yuchen and Qi Liu came out of the hut and walked out of the town slowly. When passing by the foot of the mountain, Huang Yuchen subconsciously looked up to the mountain and saw a strange light appearing on the mountain. The light seemed to suddenly appear, hitting his heart.
Huang Yuchen immediately frowned. He immediately realized that all this might have something to do with Jiying. If something happened in the alchemy room, Jiying might also be in the alchemy room; and he had many things to ask Jiying.
"Let's go up the mountain." Huang Yuchen looked at the light on the mountain and said softly to the two people beside him. After saying that, he didn't care about their reactions and walked straight towards the mountain.
