"Uncle Ce?"
Mu Zixuan, who was waiting for death, was startled. Hearing the divination, he knew that the attack came from the royal family's Heaven and Earth Trigram. Other than Ning Youyou, only Ce Tianji was good at this.
The huge divination stick pierced the transparent moon. "Ka — Chi —", a crisp sound, the full moon broke!
Not only the moon, the entire night sky was peeled off a layer, breaking and falling. It was as if there was a layer of transparent glass on the outside. Now that the glass was broken, the true "night" appeared in front of them. The Moon and Bamboo Formation — broken!
With Ce Tianji's cultivation, he originally couldn't break the formation from the outside. However, the power of the Moon and Bamboo Formation was concentrated inside the formation to suppress Mu Zixuan. The defense outside the formation was already weak. Secondly, the power of the Heaven and Earth Trigram was related to luck. The better the divination, the more powerful it would be. Ce Tianji drew the best divination and could explode with power that far surpassed his usual.
However, if he broke the formation by force, he would face the backlash of the formation. The full moon broke and then exploded. A strong airflow spread in the shape of a ball in mid-air. The bamboos around were all crushed by the airflow. Ji Fengming and Mu Zixuan both retreated a few steps. Ce Tianji was the first to be hit. His body in mid-air was lifted up by the explosive airflow. Under the dim moonlight, a red rain of blood sprayed out.
A patch of blood landed in Mu Zixuan's eyes. His vision was dyed red. He saw in the red rain of blood, Ce Tianji's old and frail body was like a fallen leaf in autumn. It lost the weight of life and floated down.
"Uncle Ce!"
Mu Zixuan cried out in panic. His heart followed Ce Tianji's body, falling and falling until it reached the bottom of the abyss. He was panicking but he forced himself to calm down. He quickly stabilized his body and stopped retreating. At the same time, he used his palm power. A beam of palm energy shot out like a shooting star towards Ji Fengming.
The Bright Moon Serene Bamboo Formation was related to Ji Fengming's aura. When the formation was broken, it also caused Ji Fengming's aura to be in chaos for a moment. She had no choice but to open the Qiankun Fan to take the palm head on. However, she was struck until she retreated a dozen steps and made a path.
On the other hand, Mu Zixuan flew up to catch Ce Tianji who was falling from the sky and seized the opportunity to escape.
The formation was broken, but it didn't mean that he had a chance of winning against Ji Fengming. Moreover, the pursuers were coming, fighting with Ji Fengming here wouldn't do him any good, not to mention Uncle Ce he … he …
So once the road ahead was open, Mu Zixuan didn't hesitate to carry Ce Tianji and run out of the bamboo forest.
However, the speed at which he ran could not keep up with the speed at which the person behind him lost his life. Ce Tianji's weak voice came into his ears, "Zi … Zi Huang, I … am old. This path … can only accompany you to this point …"
How could there be no price to pay for forcefully breaking Ji Fengming's array? The recoil from breaking the formation was no less than Ji Fengming's full strength attack. Ce Tianji's cultivation was average and his body was old and weak. How could he withstand it?
"Uncle Ce, don't talk. I won't let you die! I will definitely save you! "Mu Zixuan's voice was filled with panic.
Ever since he crawled out of the Nine Nether Ghost Abyss, the first person he met from the Imperial Starry Sky was Ce Tianji.
At that time, Ce Tianji held his head and looked at his face. He was murmuring 'Sect Master', 'Ancestral Master', 'Ancestors' … He was crying.
Mu Zixuan knew that Ce Tianji was crying. The Imperial Starry Sky that had been hiding in the dark underground for nearly a hundred years finally created a starlight that could shine on them.
After that, Ce Tianji was like his right and left arm. He helped him enter Si Tiantai from the Imperial Starry Sky and used Si Tiantai to establish the Righteous Sky Alliance. He developed and strengthened his power step by step towards the goal of Zi Wei illuminating the world.
He was also like a talkative old woman, telling him to rest early, wear more clothes, and not forget to bring things when going out … Mu Zixuan could feel that Ce Tianji treated him like a member of the royal family Starry Sky Palace to the descending Purple Emperor, but also like an elder of a sect to a junior who had high hopes for him.
On this rugged path, he was used to Ce Tianji's company. Ce Tianji was like a stone pillar supporting him from behind. He didn't look conspicuous but he didn't collapse despite carrying too much on his back.
But now, this pillar was going to break!
But Ce Tianji was still laughing.
"Haha, cough, it's okay … it's good that you're dead … it's good that you're dead." Ce Tianji coughed out blood. His weak voice was filled with pride. "Today … I made a total of ten divinations. The first eight divinations … all failed. Only the last two divinations … were about you and me. The result was … death …"
"Haha, in the end … the divinations came true on me … then, based on the fact that nine out of ten divinations don't come true … your death divinations … definitely won't come true … you can live on … you definitely can live on …"
Mu Zixuan didn't lose his composure even when he was forced into a desperate situation. But now, he was panicking. He shouted with a sobbing tone, "A divinator doesn't divinate himself! Divinations don't come true! Uncle Ce, you'll be fine. I won't let your death divinations come true! "As he said this, his right hand tightly grabbed Ce Tianji's hanging left hand. He wanted to pass qi to Ce Tianji to prolong his life.
But Ce Tianji seemed to have expected this. His vital qi passed into his body first. That weak and peaceful vital qi was like a pair of benevolent hands, helping him to calm his chaotic dantian Qi Sea that had been through many battles of life and death.
"Uncle Ce, don't be like this. Stop!" Mu Zixuan noticed that the dying Ce Tianji was still using his last bit of vital qi to heal him. He wanted to shake off Ce Tianji's hand but he was afraid that Ce Tianji, who was like a candle in the wind, wouldn't be able to withstand this shake and his vital fire would be extinguished.
"Haha, this bit of vital qi can't be wasted …" Ce Tianji used the last bit of vital qi and slowly stopped. He, who was at the end of his life, showed a final radiance before death. His words also became clearer. "Really … I can only accompany you until here. The rest of the road … you have to walk by yourself …"
"No! I won't allow it. You have to listen to me! " Mu Zixuan ordered. He wanted to pass his vital qi back into Ce Tianji's body. But at this moment, he felt a wave of heat coming from behind. He turned around and saw the fire phoenix piercing through the bamboo, creating a straight line of fire. Ji Fengming was still chasing after him!
"Okay, leave the old immortal behind … or else … you won't be able to escape …" Ce Tianji squeezed his hand. His eyes contained encouragement as he nodded silently.
"I don't want to. Don't force me. I can't do it!" Mu Zixuan turned his head back and didn't dare to look at Ce Tianji. He only quickened his steps and ran with his head down.
"It's just … giving up. You can do it. You have done it before. In the future … you will do it more …" But he still couldn't avoid Ce Tianji's words. Those words were like gentle words of consolation but also like a curse clutching his heart. "This path of kingship … is destined to be lonely. If you want to go further … you have to give up the most … especially, give up the burden that is no longer useful …"
Kind words pierced the most unbearable reality. Yes, he had done it long ago. In order to finish this bloody path of kingship, he had abandoned his teacher, killed his love, betrayed his friends. He had done all the sacrifices. There was no need to pretend anymore. Now it was just … just …
Just giving up one more person!
"Hahaha! Hahahahaha! " Mu Zixuan laughed crazily like a mad demon. The blood that fell into his eyes flowed out from the corner of his eyes, outlining two lines of tears. He held Ce Tianji's skinny hand that had accompanied him until now tightly and flung it behind him!
Not only could he do it, he could do it even more ruthlessly!
Ji Fengming, who was chasing closely, heard this shrill laughter and was shocked. Before when he was fighting with Mu Zixuan, he was always calm even if Mt. Tai collapsed in front of him. But now, he was shocked. Because he saw Mu Zixuan throw Ce Tianji fiercely towards him!
But Ce Tianji had a gratified smile on his face. "This is it. Only like this can you become a king. Our Zi Huang …"
Ce Tianji thought. The Primordial Heaven and Earth Trigram formed the last lot of his life. A person who was about to die had no luck at all. Naturally, it was the worst lot.
But the worst lot at this moment was just right!
When the Primordial Heaven and Earth Trigram was wrong, it would often hurt one's body. Plus, he didn't have enough vital energy, so the backlash was even more severe. Immediately, waves of corrosive fire burned from his empty dantian. It couldn't be stopped and spread throughout his body. Ce Tianji turned into a burning man of fire and crashed towards Ji Fengming who was also burning with phoenix fire.
"Bam!" The two balls of fire collided, and the fire spread in all directions, dyeing the surrounding bamboo forest into a sea of fire. Ji Fengming was knocked out of the shape of the Fire Phoenix, and she staggered back a dozen steps before she could stabilize herself.
Ce Tianji's body was already destroyed, leaving only the lot formed by the spell.
"The next lot: Red Mud Trigram in the Kiln: Burning your whole body red like fire, who are you paving the stepping stones for?"
Then, as the wind blew the ashes away, they also disappeared without a trace.
Ji Fengming looked at the tragic scene in front of him and panted heavily. Ce Tianji used the backlash to block it, forcing Ji Fengming to stop. Plus, the injury on his foot affected his movement, so he couldn't catch up.
But after calming her breathing, Ji Fengming sighed. With a wave of her Cosmos Fan, she extinguished the flames in all directions. She looked in the direction that Mu Zixuan had left in and muttered to herself, "Even with this, I still couldn't stop you. As expected of you. But in the next trial, the person guarding the trial is the one who truly forced your plot to be exposed and caused you to be deserted …"
His vision was deep, as if he could see through the bamboo forest and see the person and the sword at the end of the bamboo forest.
