Aeon Shadow paused for a moment before continuing, "However, since I've promised you, I won't break my promise. I'll show you a path. As for whether or not you can save him, that will depend on your own ability."
"You piece of shit!"
Ye Xuan weakly said. His eyes were filled with tyranny, but he was powerless against the ancient shadow in front of him.
"I know you hate me, but I didn't lie to you. Before you came, I already told you that I couldn't save him because of the restriction. If you weren't willing to give up your Gate of Heaven, I wouldn't even have given you the chance to save him. So, I didn't lie to you."
Aeon Shadow was indifferent to Ye Xuan's hatred. At his level, he wouldn't be moved by words.
Chi!
The Ancient Shadow shot out a starry sky compass and firmly landed in Ye Xuan's hands. His voice also sounded out at the right time.
"There is someone who might be able to save him at the end of this starry sky compass. However, whether or not that person is willing to help you will depend on your own ability. You may leave." Aeon Shadow waved his hand, ordering Ye Xuan to leave.
As he held the Starry Sky Compass in his hand, Ye Xuan's eyes were gloomy and silent. He silently picked up the black ancient mirror on the ground and didn't say anything unnecessary as he staggered out of the valley.
However, before Ye Xuan could take more than ten steps, Aeon Shadow's calm voice came from behind Ye Xuan. Perhaps he couldn't bear to see Ye Xuan leave, or perhaps he had other intentions.
"Although your Gate of Heaven has been destroyed, the Reverse Symbol Art can seize the mysteries of chaos and the mysteries of the universe. Perhaps you still have a glimmer of hope. Take care of yourself."
Unfortunately, Ye Xuan treated his words like air. He walked forward alone. Although he staggered, he didn't stop at all. He didn't even turn around to look at Aeon Shadow.
"What a stubborn brat!"
Looking at Ye Xuan's departing figure, the Eternal Shadow's aura became slightly chaotic as he muttered to himself. However, he did not regret what he had just done because he really did need the trace of the mysteries of reincarnation in Ye Xuan's Gate of Heaven.
"Ancestor of All Beasts, I believe that you are still alive. I want to see if you will help him. Do you want this chess piece or not?" The Ancient Shadow's scarlet eyes flickered slightly. He sat cross-legged by the ancient pond again, as if he had turned back into an ancient boulder.
…
The sky was high, the clouds were light, and the wind was refreshing.
The entire Untainted World was filled with Spiritual Qi, and even the vegetation had grown much taller than before. However, Ye Xuan staggered alone in the forest. He carried some loneliness and sorrow, and his eyes were extremely muddled. Finally, he could not hold on any longer. He fainted on the ground and rolled down the slope of the cliff.
Plop!
Below the cliff was a surging river. It was unknown where this river led to, but it carried Ye Xuan away in the ripples until Ye Xuan completely disappeared.
…
Blood, fresh blood, bleak and magnificent fresh blood!
Dreams, nightmares, nightmares where Liu Baiyi died tragically in front of him!
Kill, kill until there is no road between heaven and earth. Kill, kill until all living beings wail in grief!
Slaughter and blood intertwined. People of the past died one after another. Even Ye Xuan died alone in a mysterious and unknown place. He roared madly at the sky, but there was no response from the universe. Only a sad and bleak smile appeared on his face.
"Ah!"
Ye Xuan suddenly woke up from this nightmare. His whole body exuded an extremely sad and lonely aura. His eyes were muddled and confused. He was still immersed in this nightmare.
"Ah, you're awake?"
Suddenly, a weak voice sounded. It was a little boy about seven or eight years old. He looked at Ye Xuan, who had just woken up from a nightmare, with slight fear.
This little boy's clothes were ragged, and his little face was a little dirty. However, his eyes were very bright, and he gave people a feeling of cleverness and cleverness.
The little boy's voice caused Ye Xuan's eyes to gradually focus. He finally saw the place in front of him clearly.
At this moment, he was lying on a broken bed. The room was slightly smashed, and there were some simple daily necessities. He could clearly see the appearance of this little boy in front of him.
"Where is this? Who are you? Why am I here? " Ye Xuan slowly sat up. He looked at the little boy in front of him with lonely eyes and asked three questions in a row.
"This is the Dreamy Cloud Swampland's Dabie Mountain. My name is Little Shitou. Three days ago, I was fishing by the river and happened to save you from the river. Then, I brought you home. Big brother, what is your name?"
Although Little Shitou was a little afraid of Ye Xuan's eyes, he still answered Ye Xuan's three questions in an orderly manner. He was so clever and calm at such a young age. This child must have experienced some hardships, so he was obviously a little precocious.
"Dreamy Cloud Swampland? Dabie Mountain? "
Ye Xuan muttered softly. He gradually recalled that the Gate of Heaven was destroyed by the Eternal Shadow. He carried the starry sky compass and the black ancient mirror and wandered aimlessly. In the end, he fainted.
"Starry sky compass? Black ancient mirror? "
Ye Xuan suddenly woke up with a start. These two things were related to Liu Baiyi, so they couldn't be lost.
"Big brother, are you looking for these two things?"
Little Shitou was very clever. He hurriedly took out two things from the corner and dragged them to Ye Xuan's side. They were Ye Xuan's starry sky compass and black ancient mirror.
Little Shitou was too young. He was only seven or eight years old. However, he lived in the mountains all year round, so his strength wasn't small. However, a child was still a child. When he saved Ye Xuan, he spent a lot of effort to bring him home.
The starry sky compass and black ancient mirror were in Ye Xuan's hands. He knew that they should be extremely important to Ye Xuan, so he brought them back together. He was going to return them to Ye Xuan when Ye Xuan woke up.
"Thank you."
Ye Xuan looked deeply at Little Shitou. He waved his hand and took the two things into his body. However, the scene in front of him made Little Shitou's eyes shine brightly.
"Big brother, are you an immortal?" Little Shitou asked excitedly.
Looking at the little boy in front of him, Ye Xuan didn't know how to answer. However, he still nodded and said, "You can say that."
"That's great. You really are an immortal. Immortal above, please accept a bow from your disciple. Please accept me as your disciple. Your disciple will definitely respect you and be filial to you."
Little Shitou knelt on the ground excitedly. He kept kowtowing to Ye Xuan. His forehead was bleeding from the kowtow.
"You want to be my disciple?"
Ye Xuan was stunned. He didn't seem to have ever taken a disciple. The disciples he had taken in the past were just used. There was no such thing as a master-disciple relationship.
Whether it was Ye Xuan Mo, who was sent to the Grand Central Territory by him, or Luo Hou, who was his enemy in the Eldritch World, the two of them took in disciples. In the end, they were just their chess pieces.
Even a little girl who looked very similar to Gu Xiaoxiao was casually given a cultivation method. Since the last time he returned to the Eldritch World, she had already become the Master of the Celestial Court. However, there was no such thing as a master-disciple relationship between them. Even Ye Xuan had forgotten about her.
Now, the little boy in front of him was just a mortal. He didn't even have a so-called battle constitution. However, at this moment, he wanted to be Ye Xuan's disciple. This made Ye Xuan's lonely and sad heart tremble slightly.
