Lai Caisheng's lips twitched as if he wanted to say something, but Gongsun Shiyu's hand was like an iron clamp, almost crushing his throat bone.
Crack.
Gongsun Shiyu suddenly exerted force, and Lai Caisheng's neck lost its support … His head drooped down.
"The answer is, no matter what you calculate, I'll kill you." Gongsun Shiyu sneered and threw Lai Caisheng to the ground.
"You … you killed him!" Behind him, Gongsun Shishui stepped onto the altar and saw Lai Caisheng lying motionless on the ground … His expression changed slightly.
Gongsun Shiyu sneered, "No one can't be killed."
This was out of Gongsun Shishui's expectation … Lai Caisheng was one of the leaders of the world essence recovery plan, but he was killed at this critical moment … What did this mean?
Everything … didn't go according to plan, and there were always so many variables.
"But if you kill him, then there will be no one to preside over the final step … … If the Ling Qi of the earth can't be restored in the end, then won't everything be in vain?" Gongsun Zhishui couldn't help but frown.
Gongsun Shiyu didn't choose to kill him … Otherwise, he wouldn't have kept him here … Gongsun Shishui asked this question because he was really confused about the future chaos, and at the same time, he was testing Gongsun Shiyu's bottom line.
"Naive. Do you really think that no one in this world can recover the world essence except for the Cloth Sect?" Gongsun Shiyu sneered.
Gongsun Shishui opened his mouth in astonishment.
Gongsun Shiyu walked to the crystal pillar on the altar. What was sealed in the crystal pillar was … the Hope of the Dragon Vein transforming into a dragon.
Gongsun Shiyu lightly pressed his hand on the crystal pillar and sneered, "You mortals want to open the world essence, so you have to break a gap from the outside to the inside. But for us, it's much simpler … "
"You said … 'us'?" Gongsun Shishui's pupils constricted.
Gongsun Shiyu's expression became more and more strange … At this moment, those black-clothed people in the karst cave finally realized that Lai Caisheng was killed on the altar.
"Lord!!"
"Lord is dead … Gongsun Shiyu killed Lord!"
"What happened?!"
Dozens of black-clothed men rushed out … They swarmed onto the altar from all directions, glaring furiously at Gongsun Shiyu and Gongsun Zhishui.
Gongsun Zhishui couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat as he watched the aura of the dozens of black-clothed men rise crazily. These were all old monsters who had no hope of advancing and were on the verge of despair.
They had been persuaded by Lai Caisheng and had been planning for the great cause of the spirit aura recovery. Every one of them was even prepared to sacrifice themselves … But at this moment, Lai Caisheng had died in front of them, which was equivalent to completely destroying their only hope.
At this moment, Gongsun Shiyu snorted coldly. "What are you going crazy for? You have exhausted your potential and your lifespan is about to come to an end. All you want is to recover your spirit energy and redeem your past regrets … Then, as long as you can recover your spirit energy, what difference does it make who your Lord is? Don't think that only Lai Caisheng can do it … Besides. "
Gongsun Shiyu changed the topic and waved his arm. A gust of wind blew towards Lai Caisheng's corpse and turned it over. "This guy isn't the real Lai Caisheng. He's just a scapegoat!"
A red and black mist flashed across Lai Caisheng's face. After that, Lai Caisheng's cheeks seemed to be corroded … Decayed substances began to peel off from his face. After that, a different face appeared.
"This … isn't this old man Tianchi from Changbai Mountain? How can it be him?! " Someone among the black-clothed men recognized this person. "Didn't he use up his lifespan ten years ago and pass away … I saw him pass away with my own eyes! Impossible! "
"The plain-clothed path has plenty of ways to prolong one's life." Gongsun Shiyu sneered. "You idiots. Lai Caisheng wanted to forcefully reverse the general trend of humanity. He didn't just offend the human race, he also offended the will of Chellona … Do you think he would so easily expose himself to the storm?"
The black-clothed men fell silent.
Gongsun Shiyu roared with laughter. "What, do you feel like you've been deceived? I can tell you very responsibly that he's not a good person at all! Opening up the world's qi and allowing it to recover might not be what he said. He didn't want to regain the glory of Chellona's daoists! "
Following Gongsun Shiyu's words, the black-clothed men's aura began to weaken.
"Only I can help you!" Gongsun Shiyu laughed and slammed his palm down on the altar!
In the blink of an eye, the entire altar cracked open, revealing the boiling hot furnace inside. In a split second, dense spiritual energy and life energy crazily gushed out from the crack!
Inside the furnace, dozens of soul-generating pearls were arranged in a circle. They flickered and spat out endless life force!
Gongsun Shiyu waved his hand, and the erupting life force and spiritual qi split into dozens of streams that rushed into the black-clothed men's bodies!
Under the nourishment of this dense life force, they suddenly realized that their lifespans that had reached the end were recovering bit by bit … or in other words, increasing their lifespans!
"Now, I'll grant each of you five years of life." Gongsun Shiyu said casually, "Do you see that? It's that simple … you don't have to sacrifice yourselves!"
The black-clothed men looked at each other in dismay … Under the effect of the life-prolonging technique, those who had already made up their minds were like a joke at this moment, collapsing to a point that even they themselves did not expect!
"Now, protect me and help me absorb the energy of millions of souls!" Gongsun Shiyu said solemnly, "When I recover, I'll open up the world's spiritual veins and grant you immortality!"
"Greetings, my lord!"
Dozens of black-clothed men said in unison and bowed deeply at the same time.
Gongsun Shishui watched all of this silently. While he found it laughable, he also felt relieved … Now that Gongsun Shiyu had the power to dominate everyone, he naturally had the ability to change everything according to his will … When one's power was strong enough, there was no need for too much planning.
Perhaps this was what Gongsun Shiyu was pursuing … but unfortunately, the current him was no longer the original him.
"Greetings, my lord."
Gongsun Shishui also let out a long sigh and slowly lowered his head.
"Gongsun Shishui, I want you to stop the Four Seasons Glazed Book and open up the area within a hundred miles of Mount Tai!" Gongsun Shiyu's voice echoed in the cave, "I want all the Dao Demons of Chellona to come and witness this grand moment together!!"
As he said this, Gongsun Shiyu laughed wildly and entered the crack in the altar, walking into the furnace. Surging life force energy crazily surged into his limbs and bones … and the strange expression on his face became more and more intense.
"Shinryū, oh Shinryū … are you still not planning to come out? I'm looking forward to devouring you. "
…
…
Crouching Dragon Mountain Villa.
The thick fog that shrouded the Crouching Dragon Mountain Villa slowly receded … the sun was scorching at noon, and it was still winter, but the mountain villa that hadn't seen sunlight for nearly a month now seemed to have some warmth.
The long-awaited sunlight made all the Dao Demons in the villa walk out of their rooms and look at the clear blue sky — but none of them were happy.
Because this strange change seemed to be an omen of something.
In another courtyard, Fire Cloud Evil God woke up from his meditation and walked out of the courtyard. He looked up at the sky and frowned … at this moment, he heard footsteps behind him.
He hurriedly turned around and saw Mister Blind walking out of the essence room with a tired expression and a face as pale as paper.
"Blind?" Fire Cloud Evil God quickly walked to Mister Blind's side and grabbed his arm, injecting a gentle strand of true energy into him. "Is there a result?"
"The Pilgrimage Platform." Mister Blind said solemnly, "We must erect the seventh Jade Dragon Pillar before midnight tonight. Midnight is the best time to activate this array … if we really want to activate the earth spirit vein, we must choose the right time."
"Midnight tonight." Fire Cloud Evil God frowned … this was too much of a rush.
Because there were at most twelve hours to midnight — although Crouching Dragon Villa was built at the foot of Mount Tai and it would not take long to reach the Pilgrimage Platform, there was only half a day left. It was not enough for the scattered people in Crouching Dragon Villa to gather … Yan Xiaoxi's persuasion did not have much effect as all the Dao Demons looked listless.
"The second of February, the Dragon Rises … this is the time when the earth veins are most active every year." Mister Blind said seriously, "If the earth veins' shackles are activated tonight, the earth veins' spirit energy in Chellona will transform into the Dragon Rises, and with the array's effect, the earth veins' shackles will be completely broken."
Fire Cloud Evil God frowned, because this blind man before him did not seem to be simply worried about the revival of spirit energy. "Blind, is there something you haven't said?"
Mister Blind sighed slowly. "Old man, if the spirit energy can really be revived, that is a matter for the future. But when the earth spirit veins begin to awaken and the earth's spirit energy can really break through the earth veins' shackles, the first thing it brings is not hope … but despair. "
"Why do you say that?"
Mister Blind sighed. "Do you know when the decline of the Dao Demons began?"
"It is said that it started a thousand years ago." Fire Cloud Evil God frowned. "A thousand years ago, the decline of the heaven and earth's spirit energy began to plummet. It is a huge blow to you Dao Demons, but to us martial cultivators, it does not affect us much."
Mister Blind said, "A thousand years ago, this is a more direct situation, and it is also a situation that the Dao Demons can truly sense. But in fact, the spirit energy has always been declining, a thousand years ago is just a clear dividing line … The true decline of the heaven and earth's spirit energy probably began in the Great Qin Empire. "
"What happened?"
"In the past, the first emperor swept through the six countries and unified the central plains. At the same time, he vanquished the demons. After that, in order to restrain the development of the Dao Demons, the first emperor used a thousand years of the Great Qin Empire's national destiny as the price and combined the power of the stars in the sky to create a massive seal … This seal took a thousand years to complete itself. Then, from a thousand years ago, it was officially activated and began to gather the heaven and earth's spirit energy bit by bit … Until now, the heaven and earth's spirit energy has become so thin. "
Mister Blind laughed bitterly. "Actually, in less than a hundred years, the heaven and earth's spirit energy will be completely sealed. At that time, the Dao Demons will no longer be able to obtain any trace of spirit energy from the heaven and earth. There will no longer be any cultivators in the world, and no demons will be able to break through the shackles of the heaven and earth and be born … The rest will only be eroded by time and slowly die. There will no longer be any Dao Demons in this world. "
This was the first time Fire Cloud Evil God had heard of a thousand years old secret … Perhaps only a sect like the Cloth Clothes Sect that had existed for countless years would know of such a secret.
At this moment, even he, the number one expert of the human race, did not dare to listen as he broke out in cold sweat.
After a long time.
"The first emperor …" Fire Cloud Evil God slowly exhaled: "The emperor of the ages … As expected of the emperor of the ages, he actually dared to use a thousand years of the Great Qin Empire's national destiny just to exterminate the Dao Demons. No wonder the Great Qin Empire only had a few short decades … What a ruthless heart … What a great courage!! "
Mister Blind said at this moment: "This spirit energy has already been sealed in the earth for too long. For two thousand years, the spirit energy has been squeezed into the earth. Once it breaks through the shackles this time and rushes into the sky, do you know what kind of consequences it will bring? "
Fire Cloud Evil God frowned: "The accumulation rebound?"
Mister Blind nodded heavily, "The moment the seal is broken, this enormous spirit energy will wash away everything … I can't calculate the specific range, but it will at least exceed seven hundred kilometers. Within this range, from the inside to the outside, from the strong to the weak, all living beings in the range will have to bear the impact of this enormous spirit energy … Old man, pure oxygen is poison, pure spirit energy is also poison. If the spirit energy is too pure, even Dao Demons with weaker cultivation cannot absorb it. They will explode and die at any time, not to mention those mortals … Once the spirit energy recovers, I'm afraid the first thing it will do is plunge all living beings into misery and suffering! "
The land of China was vast, and seven hundred kilometers was not very large … But if seven hundred kilometers was the minimum … Moreover, Mount Tai was only four to five hundred kilometers away from the capital. If the spirit energy shockwave spread to the capital …
"Blind …" Fire Cloud Evil God suddenly laughed bitterly at this moment, "I suddenly have the impulse to make this spirit energy recovery succeed."
This gave Mister Blind a great fright. He did not know what this old man had suddenly gone crazy.
Fire Cloud Evil God said faintly at this moment, "If it doesn't succeed, I'm afraid you Dao Demons won't be able to take the blame … I won't let you walk out of Chellona."
Mister Blind laughed bitterly and did not say anything.
He just silently took out a bag of golden needles, and then used qi to control the needles … The golden needles rushed out in an instant, and then pierced into the acupoints of his body, and then directly entered his body.
"Blind, you …"
His face instantly became rosy, and he became full of energy. At the same time, a terrifying and fierce wave of mana surged and erupted from Mister Blind's body. The huge impact even made Fire Cloud Evil God's cheeks shake because of it.
Mister Blind's eyes slowly opened.
At this moment, he could really see the colors around him.
"No need." Mister Blind shook his head, "I won't live until tomorrow's sunrise."
