At this time, the Yin God who had taken away Shi Xuan's and the others' coats of arms returned them to the ten people one by one. After all, they were escorted by a Yin God, several Jindan Grandmaster, and a dozen Divine Soul Stage cultivators. Under the strict supervision of the four corps, even if they had coats of arms, it would be difficult for them to resist. Thus, they didn't need to fly.
There was no shortage of resources in this world, so even Huang Xiao, a Qi Nourishing Stage cultivator, had a flying magic tool. However, she used her soul power, and her soul was not strong, so it was difficult for her to fly. Thus, she handed the child to her husband, Li Wei, and slowly flew behind him.
"Hehe, Fellow Daoist, since everyone is going to the Lesser Chiliocosm together, I'll tell you the situation first." Ao Tingtao hadn't given up. He wanted to use this method to find out who among the ten cultivators was listening attentively. Unfortunately, they all looked numb.
Ao Tingtao remained calm and continued, "Back then, Celestial Master Xu Qing had no way to deal with the third Deva's Blight. Seeing that the tribulation was coming, he was flustered. He accidentally obtained a powerful Ghost Dao cultivation method and comprehended some techniques from it. He immediately made preparations regardless of whether it was good or bad. Then, he sealed the Lesser Chiliocosm and strived to escape the tribulation as soon as possible."
"Before sealing the Lesser Chiliocosm, he was worried that something would go wrong with the Soul Blood Sacrifice, so he gave the location and the method to enter to his most trusted Second Disciple. If he didn't come out after the agreed time, the Second Disciple would bring the backup soul in. But who knew that later, the Eldest Disciple thought that he was dead, so he joined forces with the aristocratic families to kill the Second Disciple. Even his family and disciples had to escape into the underground abyss to save their lives. Fellow Daoist Tian Zha is the Second Disciple's disciple. "
Xiao Yingyu just nodded in response. A skull emitting dark green Yin Fire appeared in front of him. The Yin Fire in its hollow eyes pointed in a certain direction.
Seeing that there was still no response from Shi Xuan after saying so much, Ao Tingtao finally shut his mouth and observed the ten people's every move with peace of mind.
After flying for a while, Huang Xiao couldn't hold on any longer. She stopped in the void and gasped for breath. She took out a jade bottle and prepared to take a pill to restore her Qi.
A golden flame suddenly fell on her body, directly burning her to ashes. The expression of shock and despair on her face seemed to temporarily exist in the void.
"She's not," Ao Tingtao said indifferently. Xiao Yingyu chuckled and responded, "One less."
Li Wei was stunned. He couldn't react and could only stare blankly.
Shi Xuan sighed softly. He thought to himself, Now is not the time to make a move. If I make a move now, I will not have more than a twenty percent chance of success. I should wait until before or during the break of the restriction. Then, I will have a forty to fifty percent chance of success.
Li Wei held the child in his arms, as if he had lost his mind. His head was half turned to look behind him, and his body continued to move forward with the help of the Dharma artifact.
"Wa wa wa! Mommy, mommy!" Seeing that Huang Xiao had disappeared without a trace, the child began to wail loudly.
Xiao Yingyu didn't include the child among the 12 cultivators, so Ao Tingtao ignored him and continued to observe the others. Xiao Yingyu frowned. "What an unpleasant cry." Then, he casually hit the child with a green sword energy.
Li Wei slowly turned his head back and saw a pool of yellow corpse water in his arms. His eyes were red and his hands were trembling. However, he quickly lowered his head and just flew silently.
Shi Xuan sensed that Li Wei had suppressed his emotions and was trying to calm down. He continued to tell himself that now was not the time to make a move. He didn't have more than 20% confidence. It was better to wait until he had 40% confidence when the restriction was broken.
Xiao Yingyu walked to a place where the void formation restrictions converged. He looked left and right and even took out eight black wooden sticks. He threw them into the mouth of the skull that spat out green Yin Fire. Suddenly, eight black shadows floated in the Yin Fire and the skull. Finally, they gradually pointed in one direction, a narrow area in the middle of the two layers of restrictions.
"I'll go over first." Xiao Yingyu saw that it was narrow, so he told Ao Tingtao to bring up the rear and attack immediately if anything went wrong.
Ao Tingtao naturally nodded. He didn't want to walk in front, so he asked his escorting subordinates, Shi Xuan, and the others to stop and wait for Xiao Yingyu.
Because they maintained a good distance, Shi Xuan still couldn't attack. He could only watch Xiao Yingyu lead the two corps in front and slowly pass through the gap in the restriction.
When Xiao Yingyu and the others passed through the gap and arrived at the inner area, Ao Tingtao drove Shi Xuan and the other guards to the gap in the restriction. Although it was a gap, it was at least dozens of kilometers wide. The reason why Xiao Yingyu walked separately was to guard against Shi Xuan's sudden attack.
Just as it entered the crack, a ray of green sword light, filled with determination and determination, attacked the formation. It was so bright, as if it was burning all of its life, short and resplendent.
Shi Xuan looked at the green sword light in shock because it was Li Wei's. He was so far away from it and the difference in strength was so great. He definitely couldn't succeed, and it was even questionable whether the sword light could fly over that distance. However, there was only determination and no regret in the sword light.
An attack from a Leaving Body Stage cultivator burning his life was nothing in Xiao Yingyu's eyes, but Li Wei's target soon made him frown slightly. "At least he's a little smart. He knew to activate the large formation to let everyone die together." Xiao Yingyu waved his hand, and the green sword Qi shot out again. It directly collided with the green sword light in mid-air and then scattered it without any suspense.
At the moment of death, Shi Xuan didn't feel any regret from Li Wei. He just didn't retreat. He seemed to be muttering two names, "Xiaoxiao, Baobao."
Shi Xuan knew that Li Wei's action wasn't because of his emotions. He had already calmed down, but in his calmness, he still chose to do it, as if it was something more important than his own life.
Looking at the cyan sword light turning into light spots and disappearing in the air, Shi Shuan was shocked. It was because of the decisiveness and firmness. At the same time, he understood something.
The path of the Primordial Spirit was to break away from the laws of heaven and earth in pursuit of immortality. It was a path to seek that trace of heaven's secrets. No matter how well prepared one was, how good one's cultivation technique was, and how strong one's luck was, the possibility of success was less than 10%.
At this step, to succeed, one needed to be fearless, decisive, and firm. One needed to have the courage to go forward even if there were millions of people. Otherwise, how could one talk about fighting against the heavens!
Those who were afraid of death sought immortality, but only those who were not afraid of death could obtain immortality. This seemingly contradictory sentence was what Shi Xuan now understood.
As he understood, the experience of living on Earth in the past two years surfaced. Shi Xuan also understood where his obsession was. It was because of the environment, the experience, and the character. It formed cautiousness. Unless he encountered sudden danger, he wouldn't make a move if he wasn't confident.
Just like this experience from the beginning to the end, if he could seize the opportunity that seemed to be not confident, he might be able to escape. Why did he fall to the point where he didn't even have a 10% chance of success?
Most of the time, cautiousness was a good thing. It was a good character. But sometimes, cautiousness could be fatal.
It was just like a character that was too decisive. Most of the time, it would be a tragedy. But sometimes, it could be a great harvest.
The right principle was to determine the method according to the situation, not according to one's character.
As he flew through the gap, Shi Xuan's heart gradually became clear. At the same time, his understanding of his obsession deepened. He seemed to be immersed in some kind of mysterious feeling.
However, whether it was the other cultivators and guards around Shi Xuan, Ao Tingtao, or Xiao Yingyu, none of them noticed Shi Xuan's abnormality.
At this time, Shi Xuan faintly felt that as long as he took that step and used that attack, he would have a 20% chance of touching the critical juncture to step into the Hidden Latch of Life and Death.
But did he really have to use that attack?
After all, there was only a 20% chance of touching the critical juncture to step into the Hidden Latch of Life and Death!
There was a 70% chance that he would die under the joint attack of the four Minuscule Troops, Ao Tingtao, and Xiao Yingyu.
There was also a 50% chance that he would escape by luck without the critical juncture.
Even so, did he still have to use that attack?
Moreover, even if he stepped into the Hidden Latch of Life and Death, there was only a 10% chance of forming a Primordial Spirit!
Not to mention, it was very likely that he would be directly vaporized by the Boundless Sunlight Sword in the process of defeating Xuwang! That would be unjust!
Should he use that attack?
Shi Xuan asked himself and slowly closed his eyes.
His surname was Shi, and his name was Xuan. His nickname was Evil King in university. He was a diligent and conscientious Mechanic student, but he liked a few Advanced Mathematics classes, especially probability.
His family never lacked food and clothing. When he was in middle school, he once fought with his classmates in a group fight. In the end, not only was he beaten up, but he was also beaten up by his father when he returned home. From then on, he became extremely well-behaved and obedient.
He had taken countless exams in his life, but the number of times he cheated could be counted on one hand. That was to help his first girlfriend.
Sometimes, he wanted to indulge himself, but when he thought of all kinds of laws and morals, he silently retracted it.
After that, he studied, took exams, graduated, got a job, and bought a house. His life went along the established track.
It seemed that there was nothing special about his life. It was an ordinary life. Throughout his life, he followed the rules and followed the rules. He was cautious, careful, rational, and conservative.
…
All kinds of things from his previous life flowed through his heart, and this life gradually emerged. Especially after coming to this world, there were many similarities and differences. The test was on Dao, not English, and mathematics. The things that he had painstakingly obtained in his previous life were easily obtained in this life …
These comparisons and contradictions gradually stopped. Shi Xuan's mind was clear, and only a few words appeared in his heart:
Do it even though you know it's impossible!
Even if you die nine times, you still won't regret it!
Even if there are millions of people, I will go forward!
Should I use this attack? Shi Xuan opened his eyes and already had an answer. Divine Soul Realm cultivators were afraid of death and wanted to live, so they could break through in battle. But now, it was the opposite. They had to take the initiative to take a step that was extremely hopeless and close to seeking death.
Ao Tingtao and Xiao Yingyu led the army, one in front and one in the back, and controlled the distance between them and the cultivator in the middle. They felt that the measures were appropriate and incomparably safe. Even if that fellow cultivator wanted to make a move, it would most likely be when he broke the restriction, and they were already prepared.
But at this moment, a mighty, boundless, sacred, and dignified golden bridge crossed the void and fell on the small army that Xiao Yingyu was in.
At the same time, a dazzling purple sword light slashed towards Xiao Yingyu with boundless murderous intent, deathly intent, and resolute determination. It seemed to contain the scorching pursuit of life and the Great Dao in a contradictory manner.
A sword rose from the sea of consciousness, slashing others and slashing oneself.
