return to heaven

Chapter 22

Shen Chubai slapped the spirit-eating beast with a palm, and the spirit-eating beast let out a tragic howl, and was shot out by Shen Chubai. He hurriedly hugged Zhu Chen and flew out of the cave, and sent Zhu Chen spiritual power, but it was useless, the spiritual power was like nothing , Zhu Chen did not respond, he tremblingly touched his altar with spiritual power, the altar was empty...

He remembered that when Zhu Chen was running towards him, a ball of white light hit the spirit-eating beast in his hand... With his current cultivation level, he couldn't mobilize the abundant spiritual power in his body at all. His spiritual platform was used as an introduction, and then all the spiritual power of his body was gathered together. His spiritual platform is not strong enough, but his spiritual power has already exceeded his own cultivation level by far, and the spiritual platform simply cannot stand his suicidal method. .

Shen Chubai couldn't feel anything, he only knew the pain from the bottom of his heart.He couldn't see anything in front of his eyes, except the color of blood, which made people despair. The blood was gradually losing its temperature. He wanted to keep that temperature, but he couldn't.

He wanted to smooth out the wrinkles on his clothes, but the blood-stained cloth gradually became dry and stiff, and he couldn't smooth it out, "Zhu Xiaochen, didn't you say you were going to become a fairy? How are you getting up? Zhu Xiaochen..."

He covered his wound tremblingly, but blood was still flowing out. For the first time, he knew that death was so terrible that people dared not face it, and they were unwilling to face it. It was a kind of powerlessness. Doing anything is useless...

Only at this moment did he realize how insignificant he is, no one can protect him, not even the one he loves...

Shen Chubai hugged Zhu Chen in his arms dejectedly, even though he knew it was useless, he still sent Zhu Chen a steady stream of spiritual power, "Zhu Xiaochen, if you don't get up again, little master is going to be angry..."

"Okay, as long as you get up, the little master won't blame you. How about you get up?"

"Zhu Xiaochen..."

"..."

"Huluhulu..." The spirit-eating beast lay in the darkness panting like a bellows, its eyes looked at Zhu Chen's direction in horror... its body trembled slightly...

The spirit-eating beast was lying on the side dying. It had no horns on its head, only a blood hole, and blood flowed all over the place. Its horns were still in Zhu Chen's body. The moment it was inserted into Zhu Chen's body, its horns were gone. It was already broken, and even being slapped away by Shen Chubai's palm, it had no ability to resist, and could only let the strong spiritual force blow it away.

The tears flowed out at some point, he couldn't help holding Zhu Chen's head anymore, and burst into tears, Shen Chubai wiped off the stains on his face with his sleeve, so careful, like a Afraid of disturbing a sleeping person...

Why?Doesn't he have thousands of merits and virtues?Why didn't merit protect him? Why?His Zhu Xiaochen had never been injured, the only time... He closed his eyes in pain, two lines of tears fell silently and hit Zhu Chen's face, but the man didn't feel the slightest.

He gently pressed a pious kiss on Zhu Chen's forehead.

In the cave of the Yifu, the water mirror reflected the figures of Zhu Chen and Shen Chubai. In the picture, Shen Chubai was hugging a man covered in blood and imprinting a kiss on his forehead.

Standing in front of the water mirror was a man in white, with a fly whisk and a sword stuck in his back. He was the elder Jingxu who entered the widow's mansion last. He looked at the picture in the water mirror with an ugly expression, "You Ying, Aren't you able to control the entire Yifu? How could this be?"

Youying flapped its wings in a panic in the ball, "Chirp chirp... chirp chirp chirp chirp..." It wasn't its fault, the spirit-eating beast lost control.

When seeing something wrong with the spirit-eating beast, Jingxu quickly asked Youying to stop it, but the spirit-eating beast was out of control.

Youying is the spirit beast of Cangze, who was raised and taught by Cangze. After Cangze died, Youying was in charge of supervising the inner alchemy that trapped the spirit-eating beast, and it never lost control.

……

He indirectly killed his apprentice?

Jingxu moved slightly, intending to go to Zhu Chen's side.

Suddenly, a dazzling light shone directly on Zhu Chen from the sky.

The water mirror was also stimulated by this burst of strong light, causing layers of waves to ripple. The cave was suddenly illuminated white, and the eyes were uncomfortable by the sudden strong light. After adapting, they opened their eyes again, and the water mirror returned to calm again. Showing Zhu Chen and the others.

What's this?He seemed to think of something, pinched his fingers and quickly calculated, it shouldn't be, if ordinary monks lose their altars, shouldn't they immediately lose their souls?

Zhu Chen did not.

Youying felt that she had done something wrong, which made Jingxu angry, and she didn't dare to chirp anymore, she drooped her bird's head, and a fiery red hair on her head hung down like an eggplant beaten by frost.

Seeing Jingxu ignoring him made him even more sad.

"Youying, cast a trapping spell on the spirit-eating beast."

Hearing Jingxu's order, it immediately became energetic again, spread its wings and cast a trapping spell on the spirit-eating beast, and the spirit-eating beast in the picture immediately closed its eyes obediently.

It's just that I lost control at that moment... Jing Xu frowned slowly...

Perhaps, his guess was right...

The strong light projected straight down from the upper sky enveloped the two of them, Shen Chubai just hugged Zhu Chen tightly, did not see any changes in Zhu Chen's body, but Jing Xu in front of the water mirror could see clearly ,clear and direct.

The horn of the spirit-eating beast stuck in Zhu Chen's belly gradually disappeared, the wounds on his body were also healing, and the clothes on his body were completely new, returning to his handsome and extraordinary appearance.

In the cave, in front of the water mirror, an illusory figure appeared. His white hair was not bundled up, and it was draped softly behind his back. There was a tear-shaped eyebrow between his eyebrows. He looked at the back of the person in front of him with a smile.

Youying "chirp..."

The visitor raised an index finger to his lips, signaling to Youying to keep silent, and Youying closed her mouth and rolled happily in the ball.

The man in white floated gently towards Jingxu, yes, he was just floating, he was just a floating spirit body, he leaned on Jingxu's body with a smile, and stretched his arms around his waist.

Focusing on Jingxu in the water mirror, it was as if he had been cast with a fixed spell, his eyes widened in astonishment, although nothing really touched him, but the familiar feeling was too strong, he covered his eyes with a smile, and tears flowed from his eyes slipped through the gap, "...Cangze..."

"Du Ruoyu" murmured like a sigh, it's been a long time since I heard him call him that.Jingxu is his dao name, and his original name is Du Ruoyu.

"Don't cry, what should I do when you cry? I can't even wipe your tears." Cang Ze is only in the state of a spirit body now, and he can't touch him, and he can't do it even if he wants to lift his hair.

Jing Xu slowly lowered his hands, trying to make a smile, and Cang Ze had come to him at some point.

He still looks like Mr. Pianpian, nothing has changed, which is great.But what about him?Is he getting old?He is now the elder of Nanyang Xianzong, so he must be much older.

Jingxu doesn't know where to put his hands and feet, they haven't seen each other for too long, he can only see the living Cang Ze in his dreams every time, he misses him so much, and wants him to call him Du Ruoquan tenderly, I thought he would do nothing, just quietly accompany him...

When he really appeared in front of him, he didn't know what to do.

Cang Ze smiled at his bewildered look, and raised his hand to touch his cheek, "I miss you so much."

This sentence was like a valve, Jingxu leaned gently on his shoulder, pretending to be able to hug his lover, "I miss you so much, if you don't come back, I will grow old... ...I am already an elder of the Nanyang Immortal Sect...but don't worry, I won't become like those stubborn old people..."

"Hehe..." Cang Ze laughed, "I know, don't you tell me every day? I know that you are still the lively and cheerful Du Ruoyan, Du Ruoyi who belongs to me."

"It's so good, it's so good to listen to you. I didn't think your voice was so beautiful before, but now I feel that there is no more beautiful voice than yours in this world." A drop of tears passed straight through Cang Ze's body , hit the ground, "I know, this must be a ray of blood you left in the inner alchemy, you will leave, right?" He sniffed, "Tell me, when will you Will really come back, come back to my side..."

Cang Ze opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything, how long will it take?He didn't know either, maybe he would be able to return to him soon, maybe it would be a long, long time, did you tell him not to wait any longer?He can't do it!He narrowed his eyes and was about to say something.

But I heard Jingxu say softly: "...I am not afraid of waiting. I have been waiting for thousands of years or tens of thousands of years. I am used to waiting like this. I am looking forward to the day when I wake up. I can see you appearing in front of my bed, I am really not afraid of waiting, because I know that you are always by my side, even if you can't speak, but what I am afraid of is that you are back...and I but disappeared forever..."

Cang Ze opened the distance between the two, looked into his eyes and said, "No, I will definitely come back to you."

Jingxu smiled lightly, "Well, I believe everything you say."

"Chirp, chirp, chirp..." Youying fluttered in the ball.

In the water mirror, Zhu Chen has already woken up.

Jingxu turned to look at Cang Ze, "What's going on?"

"I didn't do this, it's the way of heaven. I can't wait." Just after the words finished, Cang Ze's already illusory figure became more and more transparent, leaned forward, pressed his lips against his, and let out a kiss that seemed like nothing. , "Come back soon, I miss you."

Jingxu held back tears, "Okay."

Youying's Abandoned Mansion was Cangze's former cave. Later, because he wanted to guard the spirit-eating beast, he handed it over to his own spirit beast, Youying. The spirit-eating beast was imprisoned with Cangze's inner alchemy, and the inner alchemy was turned into a cage. A world was created in the cage, and the vitality and spiritual power absorbed by the spirit-eating beast in the alchemy were all illusions, but they were all fantasies created by Cang Ze.

Because the world inside the inner alchemy is different from the outside world, it is a world controlled by Cang Ze's inner alchemy, so Zhu Chen's merit light can't work in the inner alchemy world.

In Jingxu's view, there are too many abnormalities in Zhu Chen. A mortal with only half a spiritual root can be defined as his personal disciple by the wheel of fate, and he can realize the immortal way in just a few years. The spiritual power in his body far exceeded his own cultivation, but he did not explode and die, it was completely stored in his body, and he could even understand the cultivation technique at a point, and he could understand it with just one practice. This is no longer a simple matter. His rich merits and virtues can do it. Aside from his spiritual root, his aptitude is much higher than most monks. According to this, the golden light of body protection is not only the light of merit, but is very likely ——The Promise Daoguang!Zhu Chen is a person with a natural godhead, judging from the degree to which Tiandao cares for him, it is very likely that it is not just as simple as a natural godhead...

Jingxu originally wanted to use Youying's Abandoned Mansion to find out Zhu Chen's true power, everything was under control and proceeded in an orderly manner, until the spirit-eating beast got out of control and was out of Youying's control at all, he was afraid, what if What if this kid is really just lucky?He just wanted to help him inspire his true strength. Although the world in the inner alchemy is not controlled by Tiandao, Tiandao will never let it go. If a person with natural godhead encounters danger in it, Tiandao will never stand by. That would prove Zhu Chen's true identity.

If Zhu Chen wasn't a natural godhead, he would be able to control the spirit-eating beast immediately, and nothing would happen to Zhu Chen.

He didn't want to kill people, not to mention that he was his own apprentice, and he didn't make fun of people's lives, who knew that the spirit-eating beast would lose control.

When the horn of the spirit-eating beast really pierced Zhu Chen's body, he realized that it was too late... He almost wanted to kneel down immediately...

Fortunately, he was right.

Cang Ze's sentence, "Heavenly Dao can't wait any longer." The meaning in it was too deep, so Jingxu felt relieved.

Tiandao couldn't wait for him to break through slowly, so he helped him in the fastest and clearest way.
