Lu Chen sat alone under the lotus throne for a long time. The hall was cold and quiet, and there was no sound at all. Only the Black Dog was still lying by his side loyally, accompanying Lu Chen through this cold and lonely time.
After an unknown period of time, Lu Chen suddenly woke up from his deep thoughts. He suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest.
He lowered his head to take a look, and in his daze, he saw the inside of the seed of the Tree of God. The ancient tree hole was now completely filled with the branches of the Tree of God that came in from outside, and the two doors in the tree hole were now open.
Darkness lingered outside the door, but the branches of the Tree of God still could not find the entrance to this world. They kept slapping the tree wall, but found that it was so sturdy that it could not be destroyed. However, as the strength of the slapping increased, Lu Chen soon found that his heart was beginning to be unable to withstand such strength, and gradually felt like it was about to explode.
Was this probably how he was going to die?
Was he going to wait for death without even resisting, and was at his wit's end?
Such a scene had appeared in Lu Chen's mind countless times, but when it really came, he still felt a little uneasy and terrified. However, he still managed to remain calm.
There was a sudden movement on his feet. Lu Chen lowered his head to take a look, and it was Atsu, who was lying beside him. He did not know when it had approached him, but it was staring at him.
Lu Chen smiled, and just as he was about to speak, he saw Atsu suddenly open its mouth, and then a small golden seal fell out of its mouth, rolled on his lower abdomen, and stopped.
The Kunlun Seal!
Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting this at all. Then, although the atmosphere was very tense at the moment, he could not help but laugh. He shook his head, touched Atsu's head, and said with a smile, "You're really something, Atsu. I really forgot about this thing just now."
He gently picked up the small golden seal, and the golden light from the Kunlun Seal reflected gently in his eyes. After a while, Lu Chen seemed to think of something and made a decision. He took a deep breath, put down the Kunlun Seal, and hugged Atsu to his side.
"Do me a favor, Atsu," he said softly.
Atsu looked up at him without saying anything, but it wagged its tail.
There was a moment of confusion in Lu Chen's eyes, and he looked at an unknown place in the distance. After a while, he put his head on Atsu's forehead, and then whispered, "Take this Kunlun Seal back to Kunlun Mountain, and give it to Su Qingjun."
Atsu's tail instantly stopped moving.
The black dog seemed to want to struggle, as if it wanted to open its mouth and express something, but its body was firmly held by Lu Chen. He did not intend to let go at all, and just held it tightly in his arms.
"Help me once." Lu Chen said quietly in a low voice, "After you awakened, you are smarter than most people in the world. You should be able to see that here, I... "
He pointed to his chest, then shook his head, and said, "There is no other way."
Atsu quieted down, no longer barking, and no longer struggled. It just stared at Lu Chen with a pair of dog eyes, and there seemed to be a trace of sadness in its eyes.
"It is enough to have you accompany me until the end," Lu Chen smiled and said, "It is not a lonely death, very good, I am very satisfied."
He waved his hand, and then gently pushed Atsu away.
Atsu looked at him for a long time, and seeing that Lu Chen had no intention of changing his mind, it finally lowered its head in silence, put the Kunlun Seal back in its mouth, and then turned around and ran out of the hall. It ran all the way away, faster and faster, until it disappeared.
...
A smile appeared at the corner of Lu Chen's mouth, and he waved in the direction of Atsu's departure. But halfway through, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart, and his whole body suddenly tilted, and he almost fell to the ground.
It was also at this moment that he accidentally bumped into Perfected Lord Tianlan next to him. That damn baldy moved a little, and then there was no more reaction, and he still lay quietly on the ground.
Lu Chen panted, and with great difficulty, he endured the sharp pain in his heart. Looking at Perfected Lord Tianlan's face, he suddenly smiled and said, "Many years ago, it was you who gave me a life, and then you gave me the name 'Tian Ying'. Now, it is probably time for me to return all these things to you. "
He pursed his lips regretfully, patted Perfected Lord Tianlan's shoulder, and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, in our lineage of Taoist names with the character 'Tian', I am probably the weakest one since ancient times. My cultivation is low, and I achieve nothing. If I die later, I will probably be laughed at by the ancestors of the past generations in the netherworld … "
"Yes, even though you're a lunatic, even though the things you've done are inexplicable and stupid, I still have to call you Master."
"So, just let my lineage end here. Otherwise, you will always want to do something earth-shattering, and every time you do it, you will drag everyone in the world to die with you …"
Lu Chen chuckled. Just as he was about to force himself to stand up, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind when his gaze swept across Perfected Lord Tianlan's face. In that instant, he seemed to have grasped something — something that he had been neglecting all this while.
Why did Perfected Lord Tianlan gather so many monsters together, and even summon the divine tree?
Yes, he, who had planned everything in the human world, lost control when he encountered these powerful enemies from beyond the heavens, because the enemies were too powerful. This was how lunatics were. If an accident happened, they would lose everything. But … what was his original purpose?
Did he want to save the world? Although his idea was laughable, and it seemed more like he was dragging all living beings in the world to hell with him, Lu Chen understood this lunatic the best. He must have some kind of goal for him to do this. Perfected Lord Tianlan must have a way to destroy all these monsters in the end, and let this world be reborn. That was his ultimate purpose!
What exactly was it?
What did he want to do before he died?
…
Lu Chen's mind began to spin crazily. At this moment, he did not even care about the pain in his heart. At a certain moment, he suddenly thought of something. Although he did not have much confidence, but … wasn't he going to die anyway?
Lu Chen stood up and staggered out of the main hall of Kunlun.
As soon as he walked out of the door, Lu Chen saw that the entire sky had turned dark. A figure that looked even bigger than the Sky Dragon Mountain Range was slowly descending from the sky.
