Providence of Heaven and Earth
Chu Xingyun carefully held the Dark Green Lotus, afraid that it would be damaged. He looked at the lotus seed and actually felt a familiar aura from within the vigorous life force.
This aura was the power of the soul. It was no different from Luo Lan's aura!
Chu Xingyun's heart trembled when he saw this. He released his Spiritual Energy and followed the power of the soul. He sensed that there was a figure sitting cross-legged in the blue-green lotus seed.
The figure was a woman. She wore a green dress and had a graceful figure. Her black hair reached her waist. Her facial features were perfect. Her eyes were like almonds and her teeth were like gourds. It was as if she could make everything in the world lose their color.
This woman was Luo Lan.
Chu Xingyun's eyes narrowed slightly when he saw the scene before him. Earlier, he had personally seen Luo Lan's body turn into specks of light and disappear into the world. Why would Luo Lan's figure appear within the lotus seed at this moment?
"Could it be the Providence of Heaven and Earth?" Chu Xingyun frowned. A light flashed in his eyes as he seemed to understand something.
The so-called Providence came from Heaven and Earth. It was an especially mysterious power. It existed everywhere in Heaven and Earth and even in the bodies of all living beings. It was invisible and formless, but it truly existed.
People with strong Providence acted according to the will of Heaven. They would be able to get help everywhere and have a smooth journey.
On the contrary, if one's Providence was weak, they would be restricted and run into a wall everywhere.
Some people who wantonly slaughtered were violent and cruel. Not only would their Providence be weak, but it would also be forcefully taken away by Heaven and Earth. No one could escape.
Today, the Daluo Golden Sect and the Divine Firmament Hall had massacred the city in order to drive away the old, weak, women, and children. They had even piled up the heads of the civilians and the soldiers guarding the city in front of the valley to show their ferocity.
Such a cruel act was hated by the heavens and resented by the earth. The patriarchs of the Daluo Golden Sect and Divine Firmament Palace represented the will of the two sects. Not only was their fate stripped away by the world, but they were also punished. They were burned alive until only their bones were left.
Apart from these two people, Wu Jing Xue had led his army in a rebellion. With unparalleled might, he had sealed off the Drifting Cloud Imperial City and massacred, causing tens of millions of people to lose their homes.
Because of this, his luck was also taken away by the heavens and earth. In the end, not only him, but the 3,000 Jingtian Army also died on the Qitian Peak.
The reason Wu Jing Xue was still alive was that Chu Xingyun had suppressed a strand of his soul in the Heavenly Book of Reincarnation. He had also relied on the extraterrestrial metals and Mowang Gong's mysterious methods to forcibly condense him into a half-human, half-puppet form. That was why he had not fallen into the cycle of reincarnation.
Once Chu Xingyun had died, or if he had taken the initiative to open the Heavenly Book of Reincarnation and released that strand of soul power, Wu Jing Xue would not have been able to survive. His soul would have been scattered on the spot.
As for the 3,000 Jingtian Army, they had already been completely dead. Now, they were just spiritual puppets with endless Evil Qi. They obeyed all of Wu Jing Xue's orders.
"Luo Lan burned her life essence and single-handedly saved tens of thousands of old, weak, women, and children. She even stopped the charge of the elite troops and prevented Soaring Goose Pass from being breached. Her Providence was as thick as a rainbow, so much so that when her last trace of life was about to be extinguished, her Providence descended and forcefully sealed a trace of her soul power.
"Right now, Luo Lan's body has already disappeared into thin air. However, her soul's power is still sealed within the lotus seed. As for this dark green lotus seed, it is a pure life energy. It is able to maintain her soul and prevent it from dispersing. It is able to exist forever."
Chu Xingyun recalled the scene just now. His mouth opened slightly and he spoke in a voice that only he could hear.
Luck was illusory. To ordinary cultivators, it could not be seen, touched, or perceived. Only those who had reached the Martial Emperor Realm could feel a trace of it.
In his previous life, Chu Xingyun's cultivation had reached the peak of the Martial Emperor Realm. Naturally, he was very clear about the existence of luck. Although his cultivation was only at the Yin-Yang Realm, he could indirectly determine the existence of luck through the vision of heaven and earth.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Lin Tianchong, Mowang Gong, and the others rushed over. When they saw the green lotus seed in Chu Xingyun's hand, their bodies trembled.
Last time, in order to save Chu Xingyun, Luo Lan had used the Green Lotus Connecting the Heavens at the cost of being unconscious. Now, Luo Lan had saved more than ten thousand old, weak, women, and children. She had helped Chu Xingyun escape from his predicament. In the end, her body and soul had dissipated.
In an instant, their hearts trembled violently. It was as if knives were cutting them. It was incomparably painful. However, at the same time, they knew that the person who was suffering the most was not them, but Chu Xingyun.
The dark clouds in the sky became thicker and thicker.
The faint red light gradually faded. Gusts of night wind blew on the bodies of the crowd. They were all speechless. Chu Xingyun carefully put away the green lotus seed. A pitch-black light appeared around his body. It became thicker and thicker, deeper and deeper.
Thump!
When the crowd felt this pitch-black light, their bodies could not help but tremble. This black light was very cold. It did not have any trace of emotion. It was like a demon, bottomless.
"I never thought that you would have such a strange person by your side. Just by relying on his life, he was able to stop the charge of ten thousand elite soldiers and save those useless people. But so what? You guys will still lose in the end." In the air, Gu Xuan Feng had witnessed everything. He let out a cold laugh and said with disdain.
"Now that the gate is wide open, the elite soldiers can enter the pass at any time. You guys will not be able to stop them. Give up. Don't make any unnecessary resistance." Lin Yuanli said coldly. Below him, the elite soldiers were like a tidal wave. It was only a matter of time before they charged into the Soaring Goose Pass.
These two people didn't know that Chu Xingyun had already set up a group of Blackhole Sword Servants in the narrow and long passageway of Soaring Goose Pass, and he relied on the terrifying strength of the Blackhole Sword Servants to wantonly slaughter the elite soldiers that entered the pass.
However, although the Black Hole Sword Slaves were strong, they were still insignificant in the face of the charge of ten thousand elite soldiers. Stopping the charge of the elite soldiers was only a temporary measure. It would not last long.
After all, to Chu Xingyun, the Black Hole Sword Slaves were one of his strongest trump cards. If he could not turn the situation around in one battle, he could not reveal them.
The two of them laughed and everyone could hear them clearly. However, Chu Xingyun did not seem to have heard them. He walked forward step by step with his eyes downcast.
"Luo Lan used her life to help me get out of my predicament and let the Soaring Goose Pass survive. What right do the two of you have to talk about her actions? What right do you have to talk about her?"
"Now, I will let the two of you know how ignorant your words are!"
After the last sentence, Chu Xingyun was already standing in the air. He raised his head and looked at Lin Yuanli and Gu Xuan Feng. His eyes suddenly emitted a cold demonic light.
