To be fair, Dugu Chou did not have a good voice and he sang like a sister. However, everyone present could hear that he was exceptionally attentive and engrossed in his performance. His low, raspy voice evoked a sense of melancholy in those who heard it.
As the skeletal man listened, he gathered all his thoughts into a long, gloomy sigh.
Ling Xiaozui looked exceptionally dejected as well, while Feng Xiange closed his eyes and listened attentively, one of his hands tapping lightly on his thighs, a look of reminiscence on his face.
His head of white hair fluttered in the night breeze, solemn and solemn.
For a moment, the four influential figures who had long stood at the pinnacle of the world were lost in their own thoughts. The room was filled with desolation.
Legendary figures like them had far more experience than ordinary people. Who among them could achieve such accomplishments in this lifetime? Who among them did not have an unforgettable past?
Now that time had passed, the past was like a puff of smoke. Hundreds of years of time had turned to dust. What would it feel like to sing the song that one's true love loved the most at this very moment?
Where were the beauties who had once been so affectionate to each other?
Those peerless beauties that once lingered endlessly … had long been battered by the wind and the rain …
Now, the splendor was gone. Only four old men were left, sitting and drinking. Although they were already standing high above the clouds, overlooking the world, was there anyone by their side?
The path of Dao was arduous and difficult. Loneliness was to be expected, but when it came to it, it was hard to describe the sorrow!
Yun Yang stood at the kitchen door, looking at the four of them and could not help sighing inwardly.
He could not help thinking, "If I were to be like them in a few decades, a few centuries, would I be just like them, reminiscing about Jiu Lingfeng? That feeling … "
The skeleton-like person sighed deeply, and then finally raised his head and took a deep breath. He then flipped his wrist and took out a purple jade flute. He held it in his hand and put it to his lips.
The faint sound of the flute sobbed like a sob. It was near yet far, barely audible, but it went straight into the depths of one's heart …
By the time Yun Yang sat down again, the singing had already faded away and the flute had already finished its last note. There were only soft sighs in his ears.
It seemed that everyone present had gone through a cycle of reincarnation because of this song and this flute.
…
"This is your signature dish, Chinese cabbage and tofu …" Dugu Chou picked up a mouthful of food, his expression growing more despondent. He sighed softly after drinking a bowl of wine. "Not bad, not bad. This is Chinese cabbage and tofu indeed!"
Ling Xiaozui and the rest were silent as well, sighing as they drank.
Dugu Chou ate a few mouthfuls of food and was suddenly lost in thought. Then, he looked at the skeletal man solemnly.
The man smiled and said, "Do you have any other requests?"
Dugu Chou sucked in a deep breath and said, "I want to ask you a question. Can you answer me directly?"
"Ask away. I'll do my best," the skeletal man replied.
Dugu Chou enunciated each word clearly, "Can I … still see her?"
Everyone was stunned by Dugu Chou's question.
Everyone, including Yun Yang, knew very well who the 'she' that Dugu Chou was referring to was.
'She 'had been dead for hundreds of years!
How could he still see her?
Even if reincarnation did exist, hundreds of years had passed. Who knew how many lifetimes she had been reincarnated for?
Unexpectedly, the skeleton-like monster was silent for a long time, and did not speak for a long time.
The more silent he was, the brighter Dugu Chou's eyes shone. The fact that the other party did not reject him directly but was musing meant that there was hope and a chance. As long as there was a possibility, it was better than anything else!
Ling Xiaozui and the rest could not help feeling nervous as well, their gazes fixed on the skeletal man.
Yun Yang, on the other hand, held his breath, feeling his heart thumping in his chest.
If there was still a chance to meet someone who had been dead for a long time, did it not mean that he still had a chance to see Old Dugu again? Yun Yang really wanted to meet this old man who was like a father to tell him that his son, his seventh brother, might not be dead yet and was still in this world …
His elder brothers …
"It's better not to see each other. Why should we meet again?" The skeletal man sighed. "This life is over!"
Dugu Chou was unwilling to give up. "I know you must have a way. Tell me, how can I see her again? No matter what the method is, as long as it can be realized, I'll owe you a favor! "
The skeletal man was silent for a long time before he said, "Sigh, I'm hesitant because I know there's only one way, but this method … you won't be able to do it. You might not be able to do it."
He sighed and said, "Actually, in the hundreds of millions of years under this starry sky, there have been no more than … ten people who have been able to do this since the beginning of time!"
Dugu Chou perked up again and said, "I am grateful to know the method. Please … please show me the way. Dugu Chou … I shall be eternally grateful for your kindness! "
The skeletal man sighed softly and said, "Fine, let me tell you a story first."
Everyone immediately pricked up their ears. They all knew that this story was no small matter and could not be compared to ordinary legends.
。
Yun Yang was especially focused, afraid that he would miss the slightest detail.
"Who knows how many years ago … under this starry sky, there was an unparalleled expert. I can't say his name … He had reached the pinnacle of the world he came from. He had a long lifespan and was almost immortal. However, his lover had a short life … Before he mastered his mystical art, she had already left the world. Their love was deep and their fate was shallow …"
"This person and his lover were deeply in love. They were in so much pain that they wished they were dead. He tried everything he could to revive his lover so that they could reunite in this world …"
When he reached this point, everyone's eyes lit up like torches.
Revive!
"Although his strength had reached the pinnacle of the world and he could look down on the world with disdain, his cultivation base alone was of no help in this matter. He put up a bounty and spread it across the world in search of a feasible method, but he didn't find anything even after a long time. He didn't know what to do … He refused to give up and continued to search bitterly. Many years later, he finally met someone. That person probably pitied him and took pity on his infatuation. That person told him … when his cultivation base continued to break through, one day, when he could break through the limits of this starry sky … then he would be able to resurrect his lover!"
Hearing this, Yun Yang and the other three looked up at the sky at the same time, gazing at the boundless night sky.
There were countless stars in the night sky, blinking and twinkling in a place far away.
"Break through the limit of this starry sky?" Yun Yang mumbled in his heart.
The skeletal man continued to narrate, "Because of this thought, this person really began to work towards this goal … He kept breaking through his realm, cultivating as if he was draining his life force … Then, he kept on fighting and honing himself …"
"However, he was already one of the strongest experts in the world to begin with. Even after he improved, he discovered that he was already invincible in the world. However, he still couldn't even leave this continent, let alone the limits of the distant starry sky."
"He didn't give up, so he began to search for a way to break through this continent. He tried to create his own cultivation method to break through the original limit. Finally, one day, he succeeded in shattering the void and ascended to a higher level …"
"However, when he ascended to a new world, he was shocked to realize that his cultivation base hadn't really reached the pinnacle because there were plenty of experts who were stronger than him in the new world. He had only broken through the world he was born in, but it was still far from it. There were too many experts here, and he was still in the same place after all. He didn't break through the limit of the starry sky …"
"Therefore, he began to cultivate again. He kept on fighting, kept on breaking through, kept on honing himself, only moving towards that one goal, moving forward without stopping …"
At this point, the skeleton-like monster paused.
"What happened after that?" Dugu Chou felt his throat go dry, his voice so hoarse that he could barely hear himself.
"Finally, he reached an amazing state. With a punch, he could shatter the stars! With a roar, he could turn the sun and moon invisible! With a wave of his hand, he could maintain it for countless years without dissipating! " The skeletal man said, "There's no need to doubt or be surprised, because at that time, he was already an existence who had already comprehended the law of Dao …"
"It was also when he reached that level that he defied the laws of nature and returned to his original continent with his own power. Then, he began to turn back time!"
