Tu Shanjun looked at the black-robed monk walking from the shadows.
He was a middle-aged man, with a face as sharp as a knife and an axe, which made him even more handsome. His confident smile and eyes as calm as stars seemed to infect everyone around him.
The depression in my heart also turned into the wind and blew away.
He couldn't tell the depth of his cultivation level, but he really knew that this person was a peerless strong man and a high cultivation level.
Tu Shanjun felt panic for no reason.
Like a beast being choked.
The stronger the person in front of him became, the more the fear in his heart grew.
If everything is this person's plan, and the Soul Reverend Banner can be deduced in advance, his cultivation level must be profound and unpredictable. Even if he has the ancestor's protective means, he may not be able to escape unscathed.
It's even possible that you can't help yourself from now on.
Can a person who cannot help himself become an immortal?
Tu Shanjun doesn’t know.
The trembling stopped.
A warmth spread across his palms. Tushan Jun looked around and saw a white jade-like palm clenching his big hand.
Xu Hongshang, who was originally protected by him, took a step forward, stood in front of him, looked at her father, and said in a deep voice as if she was sorting out her thoughts and mood: "Are you still alive?"
The middle-aged man in black robe looked at Xu Hongshang with a kind smile.
Then he looked at Tushanjun who was silent behind him.
He smiled and said, "I would have died a long time ago."
Xu Hongshang was surprised, but then she showed doubts and said, "Why do you do this?"
"Because I am your father..."
Xu Xuan's voice paused and he continued: "Maybe it's not just because of this."
"I am a stubborn person and do not want my destiny to be controlled by others."
"So I resisted in my own way."
"Use great supernatural powers to deduce this variable and pull him into the game. In this way, you can steal the sky and change the earth, improve your chance of survival, and also comply with the will of my grandfather to preserve the Pei family." He said,
Xu Xuan looked at the ancestor of the Pei family, Pei Luotian, who was standing aside.
"You mean, I will die?"
"meeting."
"If your cultivation level continues to improve and activates the Feathered Immortal Body, you will die."
"Death is not terrible."
"The scary thing is that you can't help yourself."
When Xu Xuan said this, he looked at Tu Shanjun who was being protected by Xu Hongshang.
Those eyes were as bright as stars and as cold as the abyss, but in the end they converged into a pair of wise eyes that seemed to be able to see people's hearts clearly.
It was as if he could not only see clearly into other people's hearts, but also read their fears. However, he did not have any joking look on his face, but instead made a similar sigh.
Tu Shanjun's expression changed slightly.
Feeling Tu Shanjun's uneasiness, Xu Hongshang clenched her hands tighter.
There is no need to distinguish their friendship.
There was no need to force it, and there was no need to say too much.
Xu Xuan looked at Tu Shanjun, nodded slightly and said, "Please forgive a father for his sincere feelings for his children."
Tu Shanjun understood Xu Xuan's words. If Jinghong died, he would also try his best.
Even if it hurts some people.
But he understood, and he still didn't relax his tense mind.
He said solemnly: "Since I have been figured out by you."
"The 'terror' that you are worried about or that Pei is worried about may also know about me through you."
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of Pei Luotian, the ancestor of the Pei family, flashed.
He was also silent, but turned his gaze.
He is waiting too.
Waiting for Xu Xuan's explanation.
His original rhetoric failed to impress him.
The only thing that can move him is not the life and death of his family, or his own life and death.
After cultivating to this level, life and death have long been ignored. As long as he can achieve enlightenment, he is willing and willing to die if he is allowed to die today.
What moved him was actually another thing in the ancestral land.
In Xu Xuan's words, this thing is similar to the immortal comment.
In fact, Pei Luotian also thought a lot. Maybe it was Xu Xuan's discovery of the secret of becoming an immortal that caused the disaster.
And this disaster also affected the Pei family.
Xu Xuan, who was unable to keep the secret, wanted to borrow the help of Pei, but in the end his magical power was no match for the destiny.
Is this the truth?
Pei Luotian sneered.
He doesn't care.
No matter if it is the truth or not.
As long as there is an opportunity to go further, he will pick up whatever is hot without hesitation.
The third step was really difficult for him.
But he wasn't willing to stop there.
…
There was another person who also looked at him with suspicion, it was Xu Hongshang.
She was surprised and vaguely felt that what Brother Tushan said made sense.
However, she didn't care about these, but wanted to know more, if she was really destined to die, wouldn't it affect the talented and talented brother Tu Shan?
I remember the first time the two met.
Xu Hongshang's eyes suddenly opened.
She suddenly remembered what Tu Shanjun had said to her.
"Since you lack strength, I will lend you strength."
"What are the conditions?"
"Life."
"Your life."
"Just lend it to me."
At first she thought it was just an oath, a restriction on both parties. It was not until she later learned about Brother Tushan's Tao that she realized that it was indeed the Tao.
Fate.
It's like she lent her life to Tu Shanjun.
So is her fate still the fate that was originally destined?
Xu Hongshang suddenly understood something, which made her eager to know, so she also looked at Xu Xuan.
His eyes were equally deep and burning.
"good question!"
"It's really good that you thought of this question!"
"But, I want to tell you."
"I didn't figure you out. I never figured you out."
Xu Xuan sighed and exclaimed: "To be honest, calculating a monk is like using a weak insect to push a big grinding mill, so I took a trick and used the Tao body to turn into a butterfly to fly out of the 'river' and look at the road ahead."
"Looking for the 'short-lived ones'."
"Short-lived?"
"The heaven and earth have laws, summarized in Yin and Yang, like countless laws intertwined. When I flew out of the 'river', I spied a few people who should have died but did not die according to their predetermined fate. They were all because they were given
Something or someone’s help changed my destiny.”
"So, I have been waiting."
"Until two short-lived people came into my sight."
"two?"
"One of them is named Kuretake."
"This is not the first time he has come to Tianji City, but this time, his fate has changed."
"Kuretake?"
Tu Shanjun searched for the memory of the banner master in his mind.
It seems that he has never met the banner master named Wu.
Disappointment could not help but emerge in my heart.
He originally expected Xu Xuan to name a name he was familiar with.
"In other words, you have not 'met' me?"
"Yes."
"This is the first time we have met."
Xu Xuan nodded and said.
There was no need for him to lie about Tu Shanjun's heel.
What he wants is this kind of ‘variable’ that cannot be calculated.
Regardless of whether the variable is Tao or Demon, inside or outside the domain, immortal or divine, as long as it is a variable that cannot be calculated by a 'terrifying' existence, it is the best choice.
Tu Shanjun's mind was not relaxed, but he breathed a sigh of relief.
What he fears most is not only being unable to control himself, but also having his 'most fundamental' origin revealed.
Although what had happened in the past had long since turned into a dream, making him doubt whether it was a dream, at least he still had some certainty in his heart.
"system!"
Tu Shanjun thought silently in his heart.
There was no response, as it should be.
In the end, he manually opened the Soul Banner's crude attribute panel, which was so crude that only a shoddy property panel remained.
After Tu Shanjun closed the door, he asked with concern: "Will those who live a short life definitely die?"
"Some people are born with good luck, and some people are born with bad luck."
"Wherever there is life, there is also death."
Xu Xuan did not answer his question directly.
Tu Shanjun did not ask reluctantly, but said: "I don't think they are destined to die. I think they just encountered a threshold."
"They don't want to die, and they don't want to die. There is no such thing as destiny!"
"We monks, if we swallow a golden elixir in our belly, we should know that our destiny is up to us, not to God!"
Pei Luotian clapped his hands and praised: "Well said!"
"I control my own life!"
There was no hesitation, full of determination and sincerity.
Pei Luotian fully agreed with this sentence from the bottom of his heart.
Look at the old man and the young man yelling with passion.
Xu Xuan couldn't help but laugh.
If you don't even have this ambition on your spiritual path, you might as well become a rich man and wait to be a chess piece to be controlled by others.
"right."
"My destiny is up to me, not God." Xu Xuan nodded.
Xu Hongshang shook her head and held her forehead.
She didn't find it strange either.
Men are sometimes like this for no reason.
"Even so, father, you should not drag Brother Tushan into this situation."
"This is my business after all."
"no."
"I didn't draw him into it, he was drawn into it."
"attract?"
"good."
"He is a Tao weapon spirit who will be spontaneously attracted to the 'short-lived ones'. The short-lived ones will stir up the Tao created by fate and strengthen the Tao soldiers. Rather than saying that I pulled him into the game, it is better to say that I just did it.
A pusher."
Xu Xuan's rhetoric failed to impress Xu Hongshang.
Obviously, her father was the mastermind behind this series of changes.
Even if she wanted to die, she shouldn't resort to 'kidnapping' and let others fulfill her wish.
Xu Hongshang asked: "Why didn't you let me tell Brother Tushan what I knew before?"
In fact, she doesn't know much.
I didn't know anything at first, but after opening my Tao body, I learned a little bit about the inside story.
Xu Xuan said: "You can speak freely here without being secretive, because this is the blessed place I built using corpses, and my last great magical power was also used here."
"From now on, I will never be alive again." Xu Xuan said with a smile.
The three people present looked stunned.
"Dad, you..."
"I'm just about to lose my soul."
Xu Xuan spoke so briskly that no one could react yet.
"Hongshang."
"My son."
"let's start."
"Open the ancestral land. As long as you can survive, under the Nine Springs, I..."
Xu Xuan, who seemed to feel that he could not even reach Jiuquan, was finally stunned for a moment, then smiled and said lightly: "As monks, this life should be the end, so why do we want the next life!"
"bring it on."
Xu Hongshang walked to the place where the spirit sword was placed in Xu Xuan's voice.
Hold the sword in one hand.
laugh.
Bloodstains emerge.
Blood flowed out accordingly.
Buzz.
An illusory butterfly with broken wings appeared behind Xu Hongshang.
The inscription connects and the road connects.
Complex formations gathered in front of you.
A long and narrow path appeared in front of everyone.
The path seemed illusory, winding, and at the end was a deserted cemetery, with a dilapidated hut standing in the center of the cemetery.
"Let's go."
Xu Xuan took the lead on this path.
Pei Luotian also walked up without hesitation.
Xu Hongshang turned back to look at Tu Shanjun.
"Walk!"
Tu Shanjun responded with a firm gaze.
The two of them went together.
