Chen Xi used to think that there was only one thing he couldn't figure out in his entire life, and that was …
How did he get to Heavenly Spiral?
Who would have thought …
Chen Xi hadn't even figured out the first thing, and the second thing that he couldn't figure out had already happened.
This dark space was like a small black cell that imprisoned felons. At first, Chen Xi tried to think of ways to escape.
But as time passed, Chen Xi realized that everything he did was useless.
This place could be said to be —
There was no road to heaven and no door to hell.
Only boundless darkness enveloped him.
Chen Xi released tens of thousands of light balls. For every hundred kilometers he flew, he left a light ball in the darkness.
He tried to use the light ball as a reference point to find the boundary of the dark space.
But as time passed …
Chen Xi suddenly turned around and realized that even though the light balls he left behind had become a vast galaxy, he still couldn't fly to the boundary of the dark space.
Perhaps this was the true meaning of 'boundless'?
After several fruitless attempts, Chen Xi's True Essence had already been consumed by about 70-80%.
There was no Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi here. If this continued, Chen Xi would be like a lamp that ran out of oil before they could find the exit …
Chen Xi had no choice but to give up struggling.
Then, he silently sat cross-legged in the darkness.
In order to conserve his inner core, Chen Xi didn't even light up the light balls again.
The remaining inner core flowed slowly in his body, and Chen Xi's brain worked quickly.
He started to pay attention to the passage of time …
One second, one minute, one moment, one hour, one day, one week, one month, one year …
Chen Xi's mind was firm. The endless darkness didn't cause him to lose his mind.
But as time passed, Chen Xi's heart gradually became heavy.
He closed his eyes, then opened them.
Three months had passed.
This dark space was clearly endless, but Chen Xi felt especially oppressed. It was as if he would be swallowed by the darkness at any time.
He couldn't accept it.
He couldn't accept it!
He couldn't accept it!!!
Once Tian Du built his soul bridge, Ying Ying's divine soul would vanish into thin air.
By then, even if the Daluo Golden Immortal descended, he would be powerless.
Chen Xi couldn't accept being trapped here.
Because, he still had a lot of things to do!
In a moment of desperation, Chen Xi flew up and down in the darkness like a headless fly, roaring loudly.
He tried his best to make as much noise as possible.
However, this dark space didn't even give him a trace of a reply.
Very soon.
A year passed.
The long period of darkness and the mental pressure brought about by the rush to save Yingying's's's to begin with, Chen Xi's to begin to collapse.
He grabbed his own hair with a pained expression, and could only let out a series of howls that were close to wailing.
"Let me out!"
"Let me out!"
"Let me out …"
"I beg you …"
His voice was loud and impassioned at first, but it gradually became low and hoarse. In the end, it completely turned into a feeble and pitiful pleading ….
In the blink of an eye.
Ten years passed.
Chen Xi was in complete despair.
He was like a puppet that had lost its soul. He floated numbly in the darkness, as silent as a corpse.
If someone were to approach his body, they would hear his mouth squirming.
He could still speak, but he just kept repeating this sentence.
"It's too late …"
"Too late … too late … too late …"
Ten years had passed. Yingying's' soul should have long dissipated?
Even if he were to be let out now, it was too late.
It was hopeless.
It was already hopeless.
Chen Xi clearly remembered every detail when he was with Yingying.
It was also because of this that the sweetness of the past had now become a sharp knife that ruthlessly slashed at his heart again and again.
Self-blame, pain, regret, sadness, anxiety, worry, irritation, frustration, anger …
All the negative emotions of human beings were gathered in Chen Xi's heart at this moment.
If it was possible …
He would rather die than stay in this boundless darkness.
Fortunately.
Chen Xi still had a glimmer of hope in his heart.
"Last year, today, in this door, human faces and peach blossoms were rosy."
"I don't know where the human faces are, but the peach blossoms are still smiling in the spring breeze."
He had already parted with Yingying once.
He had stayed in Heavenly Spiral for five hundred years, but only five years had passed on Earth.
Who knew how many years a year in this godforsaken place was equivalent to on Earth?
Thinking of this, Chen Xi couldn't help but erupt with an extremely strong will to live.
Yes!
Before determining the time difference between the two worlds, how could he give up on himself?
Before the moment the truth was revealed, how could he be hit by his own negative emotions first?!
Chen Xi sat cross-legged again.
He didn't want to think about those things anymore.
Instead, he began to repeatedly ponder the mystery of this dark space.
Since this dark space could trap an immortal cultivator at the peak of the Soul Formation realm, it meant that this space was definitely extraordinary.
Chen Xi directly ruled out the possibility that Tiandu was behind this.
It wasn't that he looked down on Tiandu, but that Tiandu really didn't have that ability.
Even if the Grand Pure One was alive, it was absolutely impossible for him to play with him in the palm of his hand like this.
As such …
After pondering over it again and again, Chen Xi suddenly had a guess in his heart …
Could it be that there was an accident when he opened the Heavenly Gate with his sword, and that was why he barged into this endless dark space?
Came uninvited?
Waiting for him?
Or catching a turtle in a jar?
He hadn't comprehended the true meaning of the word 'void', so he didn't understand what was needed to cross the two worlds.
A huge amount of vital essence?
Obviously, it was more than that.
Chen Xi began to think about this problem seriously.
Even if he was deep in darkness, he had to maintain a clear mind.
Chen Xi kept thinking.
But time never stopped waiting for him.
In the blink of an eye.
A hundred years had passed …
…
Let's talk about Niannian first.
Ever since Chen Xi left, the little girl had been thinking about him all the time.
On one hand, it was because Grandpa's cooking was not as good as Daddy's. On the other hand, it was because Mommy had been lying in bed motionless.
Without the company of Daddy and Mommy …
The little girl was indeed very uncomfortable and was not used to it. Therefore, she had to video call Chen Xi at least ten times a day.
Fortunately …
Before Chen Xi left, he had already made all the preparations.
She didn't know what agreement he had reached with Wu Lian.
In short, after Chen Xi left, Wu Lian set up a team to deal with the little girl's video bombardment that could come at any time.
Therefore, with the support of national technology, Chen Xi's appearance could always appear vividly in front of the little girl.
This also greatly eased the little girl's longing.
Detective Conan could lie to Xiaolan until the end with just a phone call, let alone Chen Xi who used a video call.
Under the constant comfort of 'Chen Xi', the little girl also welcomed a new year.
This year's Spring Festival was much earlier than last year.
February 4th.
New Year's Eve.
Early in the morning, Wang Chunju and Qin Yongwang brought a large group of people to the Qin Family's courtyard.
In order to make the little girl happy, the big brothers and sisters from the various departments of the Martial Arts Alliance used all their strength. They practically treated her like a little princess. They held her in their hands, afraid that she would fall, and in their mouths, afraid that she would break.
With so many people trying to make the little girl happy, even without the company of Daddy and Mommy, the little girl had a very happy New Year.
