How important was Jing Jiu's decision?
In other words, it was related to the trend of the entire history of Chaotian.
On a smaller scale, it would decide the final success or failure of his thousand year cultivation path.
Of course, to him, the latter was the most important thing.
He had only used one night to make this decision. No matter how one looked at it, it couldn't be said to be serious. In fact, it could even be said to be extremely sloppy.
"Actually, I really don't care what you guys want to do, but why did I stand up against Senior Brother when he wanted to do it back then?"
Jing Jiu reached out again and plucked a piece of spring scenery. He put it in front of his eyes and looked at it for a while. It was as if he was looking at the hotpot from back then.
"Since our paths are different, we can't work together. Let's just go our separate ways. But this matter is out of the question, because your path has already affected my path. Well water does not interfere with river water. I just want to be a well in peace and Silence, but the waves you make in the river are too big, and the water is muddy. "
He had never told his Senior Brother about this before. He had only told him about it on Tianguang Peak yesterday. Today, he had officially explained it to him.
That year, after eating hotpot, he brought Yuan Qijing and Liu Ci to his Senior Brother.
This was related to the disaster in the Guocheng Temple, but the root cause was still different.
"If it was in the past, if you still wanted to live and cultivate in this world, I can understand your choice. But now that you are in sight of the Great Dao, you can just leave. Why bother about this place?"
Bai Zhenren's gaze fell on his fingers, watching the spring scenery that was gently changing shape with the wind.
"You said earlier that it's wrong to just walk away."
Jing Jiu said, "And it turns out that even if I leave, it won't end."
Bai Ren had successfully ascended more than a thousand years ago. She felt a strong uneasiness when she saw that dark and dangerous world. She didn't go far from it; instead, she stayed outside Chaotian.
That year, he broke through the sky with his sword and went to the outside world. He was severely injured by her sneak attack and had no choice but to use the All in One Sword to reincarnate.
The sneak attack was not the key. The real problem was that he still had karma with this world.
Because of the Smoke and Cloud Dispersing Formation, and because of himself.
In his previous life, Zhenren Jingyang had the sharpest and most indifferent Taoist heart in the world. He was like an immortal sword that had been washed by water for ten thousand years, but he still could not cut off the karma.
Therefore, after his rebirth, he first went to the small mountain village and found Liu Shisui. Then, he returned to Aoyama and brought Zhao Layue to Shenmo Peak.
He heard the zither music in the plum garden in Zhaoge City and went to the West Ocean to meet Lian Sanyue again.
The karma didn't end there. Instead, it became deeper and deeper, until it penetrated into his bones and became inseparable from him.
Karma needed to be settled.
Bai Zhenren understood what he meant and said, "This can even make you temporarily forget your fear of death?"
Jing Jiu said, "I'm not sure, but I didn't think about these things when I made the decision."
Bai Zhenren continued to ask, "What about now? Do you feel that darkness? "
That patch of darkness was the shadow of death.
Jing Jiu said after some thought, "I think so."
The reason he felt the shadow of death was because he wasn't sure if he could defeat his opponent.
Bai Zhenren said calmly, "Let's see whose Dao path is correct then."
The judging criteria for the contest of the Dao paths was simple and straightforward.
Whoever survived in the end would be correct.
This was the meaning of the Dao path.
For example, what should the human race do in the future? For example, how should this world exist? It would take a great many years to see the final outcome, and only then would they know if the ideas of Taiping Zhenren and Bai Zhenren were correct.
… … The monks of the Guocheng Temple had all left. The chanting of the scripts could be heard in the fields outside the courtyard walls and among the cliffs. The chanting came to the pagoda forest along with the wind, adding a sense of solemnity to the atmosphere.
"The fairy energy in the Master Amulet is too much, and its level is too high. I had to sleep in the chanting of the scripts for many years to temper it."
Jing Jiu wasn't reminding her; he was merely narrating it objectively.
Bai Zhenren had two Fairy Books, one main and one auxiliary. If she could only use the auxiliary Fairy Book like before, she would be no match for him.
Of course, she must have many powerful magic treasures and Taoist magic skills, just like Jing Jiu had the Seal of the King Of The Underworld.
But those were not as good as the Fairy Book and the All in One Sword.
Since they were not good enough, they weren't qualified to participate in today's battle.
"This is the Fairy Book of the Bai family. Though I can't temper it, I know more ways to use it."
After Bai Zhenren said this, his hand suddenly released an unimaginable amount of light.
The light came from the burning Fairy Book.
The auxiliary Fairy Book helped her travel freely between the human world and the Underworld with the Escape Method of Heaven and Earth, and evade the pursuit of Jing Jiu.
Unexpectedly, she directly ignited the Fairy Book before the battle began.
The fact that she could ignite the Fairy Book was even more shocking.
It was because it proved that the Bai family had a great deal of experience in using the Fairy Book to fight, just as she said.
The Fairy Book was burned into nothingness in a short time. The bright light with endless heat seeped out from the gaps between her fingers, but it turned back when it encountered the spring wind.
This miraculous scene was something that could not be imagined no matter how one imagined it … before it really happened.
Those extremely bright rays of light, completely penetrated the white clothes, entered her body, and then disappeared.
Her body didn't seem to have experienced any change; but if one looked closely, one would find that her eyes were brighter, and her skin had a thin glow that looked like gold or jade, glinting under the sunlight. Her entire body seemed to have turned into a magic treasure.
Jing Jiu sensed it clearly. It was not the fairy energy that had modified her Taoist body in a short time; it was the fairy energy that had been dispersed into tiny particles, covering every part of her body and even every part of her internal organs.
In a sense, Bai Zhenren had a golden body similar to Cao Yuan's, which was similar to his sword body.
Bai Zhenren had an indestructible Taoist body at the moment. Those magic treasures and the attacks of the swordsmen in the Heavenly Arrival State couldn't hurt her a bit.
She didn't have to worry about being pierced through by the sword light and almost dying on the spot like what had happened by the East Ocean.
Her defense had become unimaginably powerful; but what method would she employ to kill Jing Jiu, whose defense was even more powerful?
Did she really have a way to employ the true Fairy Book?
The sun had reached its zenith, the hottest moment of the day, and the sunlight was exceedingly bright.
All of a sudden, countless sunlight beams shot toward the pagoda forest as if they were summoned by a shapeless force.
The same scene had happened on Longevity Mountain, but the sunlight beams were thicker this time, looking like a static lightning bolt that had destroyed the Great Formation of the Guocheng Temple easily.
The sunlight beams illuminated the gloomy and gloomy pagoda forest, as well as Bai Zhenren's face.
Her face was illuminated by the sunlight, not as desolate as before. A few wrinkles appeared at the corners of her eyes, and a strand of black hair on her temples turned white at a visible rate.
Was this the price she had to pay to employ the Master Fairy Book?
Bai Zhenren drifted up into the sky amid the sunlight. She looked down at Jing Jiu, her eyes devoid of any emotion.
Countless sunlight beams shone on the pagoda forest soundlessly, but they didn't scatter. They shrouded Jing Jiu like a fence.
Many small holes appeared on the green stone slabs, which were the result of the power of the light beams.
The light grids emitted an unimaginably formidable energy as they shrank toward Jing Jiu.
Countless puffs of green smoke arose in the pagoda forest, and the wild grass in the cracks of the stone slabs melted with the wind.
Sizzle!!! A ray of light had finally touched the hem of Jing Jiu's white cloth, which was set ablaze.
Soon after, a ray of sunlight touched his wrist and made a small cut.
No blood flowed out, and the cut was crystal clear, like colored glaze.
Jing Jiu didn't try to run away.
No matter how fast the sword light was, it was at most as fast as the sunlight.
In this array made up of sunlight, there was not much meaning in dodging.
Before Bai Zhenren employed the Fairy Book, Jing Jiu had started calculating.
To be more precise, the moment he was ambushed on Longevity Mountain and saw the sunlight, he began his own deductions and calculations.
His final conclusion was very simple. If Bai Zhenren used only the Auxiliary Fairy Book, he would have a chance of winning.
But if she summoned too much sunlight, he wouldn't be able to avoid it, and he wouldn't have any chance of winning.
No matter how abundant his sword source was, how could it outlast the endless sunlight?
The white fireball, which was floating in the dark and cold world in Silence, obviously wouldn't be extinguished even after tens of thousands of years.
As such, there was only one way: to cut off the passage through which the Fairy Book summoned the sunlight.
After sneak-attacking Bai Zhenren in the Heavenly Well by the East Ocean, Jing Jiu was more certain of his conclusion. As such, the sword light wrote a few words in the sky.
The sword light moved too fast, and the words disappeared as well. Only a few people in Chaotian could see them, like that person in Aoyama.
…
…
The sunlight in the sky suddenly disappeared.
A black mountain suddenly appeared in the sky, blocking the sun.
The sunlight shone on its body, turning its black fur into a silver color.
The light beams in the pagoda forest of the Guocheng Temple were still emitting bright light, but they didn't have an endless supply.
Bai Zhenren arched his eyebrows, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes growing deeper.
Though she was surprised, she didn't hesitate. She reached out her hand and grabbed the sunlight in the pagoda forest, thrusting it toward Jing Jiu.
The light grating formed by hundreds of light beams had instantly condensed into a line and landed squarely on Jing Jiu.
Crack!!! Innumerable cracking sounds rang out one after another. The big trees and the courtyard walls of the Guocheng Temple fell down together, and a human-shaped crack appeared on the bell in a side hall.
…
…
The ocean waves kept crashing against the rocks by the shore. It was unclear how many years they had been crashing against the rocks, and how many more years it would take for the rocks to break into pieces.
Boom!!!
The rocks suddenly broke into pieces and fell into the ocean waves, creating countless raindrops.
Jing Jiu flew out from the ocean, his body covered in blood.
The blood was not diluted by the seawater, but it was dyed golden by the sunlight.
Bai Zhenren had knocked Jing Jiu to an island one hundred miles away with one punch!
Looking at the land on the other side of the ocean, Jing Jiu waved his hand.
A few desolate sword lights left his fingers and returned to the Guocheng Temple after passing the ocean surface and a distance of one hundred miles. Pah!!!
Pah!!! Pah!!!
A few invisible dents appeared on Bai Zhenren's clothes.
Some blood seeped out.
It was also golden.
