The Phoenix space was dark, and the red phoenix pupils released the only light. But when the red flames fell in Yun Che's eyes, the reflected light was extremely dim.
The space fell silent, and there was no sound for a long time. Yun Che stared blankly ahead, his pale eyes showing no trace of movement, as if his soul had been pulled away.
The Phoenix Soul did not speak anymore. It was very clear that for a profound person, becoming a useless person was a crueler result than death. Especially, Yun Che once stood on the top of a continent and had countless brilliance and glory.
, has created one miracle after another that has never been done before...even a miracle.
But after a dream, he became a useless person.
No one can accept this sudden nightmare. Not even the mystical practitioners of the divine world... not even the supreme divine kings and gods will have their will collapse due to this.
Especially...it's a nightmare from which one can never wake up.
"Is there... a way to recover?" he asked, his voice weak and slow.
"Since you are dead, how can you talk about resurrection?" Phoenix Soul replied: "Now you are just a mortal... a mortal who needs to slowly recover from weakness. Everything in the past has turned into clouds and smoke."
"...Then, can I still practice cultivation again?" Yun Che asked again.
"No." No matter how cruel the truth is, Phoenix Soul will not hide it: "Your profound veins are still the evil god's mysterious veins, but they are the dead evil god's mysterious veins. There is no power in this world that can revive the dead evil god's mysterious veins.
...Unless you can find another drop of the evil god's blood."
"..." Yun Che looked ahead, blankly.
The Ice Phoenix girl at the bottom of the Netherfrost Heavenly Lake told him that the Evil God destroyed his existence in advance in order to leave this drop of immortal blood. This means that the Evil God's immortal blood that Jasmine found in the Southern God Territory back then,
It is the only inheritance of the evil god in the world. There is no possibility of other blood of the evil god.
In other words, not only did he lose all his divine power, he was also no longer able to practice.
Eternally...become a useless person!
"Haha...hehe..." Yun Che smiled, his smile was extremely dry: "Are you...are you kidding...this is...the price for my survival? This is...the so-called...nirvana...
"
Phoenix Soul: "..."
The so-called nirvana... these few words are undoubtedly an offense to the majesty of the Phoenix, but the Phoenix soul is not angry at all, because it is very clear that such a reality is a cruel blow to Yun Che.
"Why don't you let me die happily..." Yun Che growled hoarsely: "At least I can accompany her... I promised to go to another world with her... Why don't you let me die... Why...
"
A few words left him breathless, and the dim vision in front of him made the smile at the corner of his mouth even colder... He was not only useless, he was no better than an old man who was seriously ill in bed.
That day when he broke into the Star God Realm, he never thought that he could rescue Jasmine... but at least he could die with her.
Although he killed many Star Guards and even killed a Star God elder, it would not hinder the progress of the "ritual" at all. He had been in a coma for so many days, and by now, the ritual must have been completed. And as a sacrifice for the ritual,
Jasmine and Caizhi are also undoubtedly dead,
But the one who promised to accompany Jasmine... is still alive...
Living as an eternal useless person...
His hands clenched little by little while trembling, and he wanted to lift them up, but he could only lift them up to his waist, and then fell down weakly.
Now, even if he wanted to commit suicide, he couldn't do it.
"I understand how you feel." Phoenix Soul said: "Life is the most precious thing given by God to every living being. No matter how humble it becomes, it should be respected and cherished. What's more, in your life now, you really
Is there nothing more important than death?"
"..." Yun Che was silent for a long time. One scene after another, one face after another, passed through his mind. Gradually, his gray eyes began to tremble, and they became more and more violent...
This is Tianxuan Continent... He is back.
Those who he missed day and night, he could finally see them and tell them that he was back... But then, a heavy fear filled his heart... He was afraid of seeing them.
How should I face them like this...
A long silence.
"Thank you for giving me a second life." Yun Che spoke slowly, his voice seemed to have regained some of its calmness, but his hands were still clenched together.
"You must not be able to accept this reality now." Phoenix Soul said: "It doesn't matter, and there is no need to force yourself to accept it immediately. Time will let you gradually find the meaning of your second life. Perhaps, one day you will find,
Falling back into the ordinary is not a bad thing.”
Facing the current Yun Che, it could only comfort him with these words.
Being a useless person forever, this result is enough to defeat the will of any mysterious person. Yun Che's current life was given by it, and it does not want Yun Che to waste it in the endless gloom and silence.
"..." Yun Che did not respond.
"Go ahead." Phoenix Red Eyes narrowed slightly at this moment: "The second life is not only a gift, but also a test. If you can overcome this difficulty with your own will, you will get
It will not only be the rebirth of life, but also perhaps spiritual...real nirvana."
Yun Che: "..."
The phoenix eyes closed at this moment, and the world returned to darkness, and then countless bright lights shone.
The world around him switched silently, and Yun Che had returned to the entrance of the Phoenix Trial Ground.
The barrier was re-sealed, and in front, Feng Xian'er, Feng Zu'er, Feng Baichuan... and many Phoenix clan members were waiting there, with deep worry and anxiety on their faces.
Seeing Yun Che coming out, their expressions all turned to concern. Feng Zuer and Feng Xianer immediately moved forward, supporting him one on the left and the other on the right.
A warm current arose in Yun Che's dim heart. Their worries and concerns were all from the bottom of their hearts, and there was no trace of hypocrisy or contempt because he was a disabled person. He reluctantly showed a smile and said: "Senior Feng, I am the one who made the immortal
My son brought me here, don’t blame her."
Feng Baichuan smiled and shook his head: "Take good care of your health first, other things are not important."
"Brother benefactor, let's help you go back first." Feng Zuer said: "Mom just made bamboo soup, you will definitely like it."
The two of them led Yun Che and walked extremely carefully. Yun Che looked ahead, his eyes still blank.
This is the Phoenix Legacy Land, located in the center of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountains. Everything in sight is basically the same as in the memory, except for the sky, which is vaguely covered with a layer of red... That should be set up by the Phoenix Soul to protect the Phoenix Legacy Clan.
enchantment.
It already existed when he and Feng Xue'er arrived five years ago...or, perhaps, it existed long before that.
"Senior Feng," Yun Che suddenly said: "You have known for a long time that I have been disabled, right?"
The palms that were supporting him tightened slightly at the same time.
Feng Baichuan's steps stagnated slightly, then looked at him and said calmly: "Master Feng Shen mentioned this matter when he sent you here ten days ago."
Yun Che: "..."
"Although my cultivation of Xuan Dao is low," Feng Baichuan continued, "I understand that this must be unacceptable to you. However, to our clan, no matter what you become, you are our whole family.
The greatest benefactor of our clan...this will never change."
"Brother benefactor, don't be discouraged." Feng Zuer forced a smile and said: "All this is only temporary. Maybe when you take good care of your body, you will slowly recover. Even if...even if you really can't recover, it's a big deal.
...Just start practicing again!"
"Yes!" Feng Xian'er nodded vigorously: "My benefactor is so powerful that he is invincible in the world when he is only in his twenties. As long as my benefactor is willing, he will definitely become as powerful as before... no, even more powerful.
"
Feng Baichuan turned away and sighed secretly in his heart.
Yun Che smiled miserably: "Thank you."
Back then, when this brother and sister, who were only eight years old, looked at him, their eyes shone like stars, a look of incomparable admiration.
Even now, they are already in their twenties, and when they look at him, their eyes will still shine with the star of admiration.
However, they don't know that the person they have been admiring, yearning for, and chasing since they were eight years old has become a complete cripple...an eternal cripple...even worse than themselves who were disabled in their profound veins before the age of sixteen.
.
At least at that time, he still had profound power at the first level of the Elementary Profound Realm, and could flash a faint mysterious light.
In the dim sight, a low old tree appeared. Its branches were withered and cracked, and it was hunched over like an old man. A few withered yellow leaves gave out their last moans in the breeze.
"I want to sit there for a while." Yun Che pointed at the old tree and whispered.
Feng Xian'er and Feng Zuer both opened their lips slightly and looked at Feng Baichuan for help. The latter had complicated eyes and nodded slightly.
The two brothers and sisters helped Yun Che under the old tree. Yun Che leaned against the dry old tree and looked into the distance against the cool mountain breeze. He wanted to meditate and let himself accept the current reality. But, his
Will, his heart and soul seemed to have sunk into a bottomless abyss, with no way out.
"I want to be alone for a while." Looking ahead, his voice was softer than the mountain wind.
Feng Baichuan did not refuse and nodded slightly. He understood far better than Feng Xian'er and Feng Zu'er, two people with too simple hearts, the kind of gloom Yun Che endured.
"But...but only for a while, you will catch a cold if it takes a long time. My brother and I will come to pick you up later."
Feng Xianer gave some uneasy "warnings" and then left while looking back frequently.
call……
The mountain wind became slightly stronger, blowing up Yun Che's messy hair on his forehead, but his eyes were still dull, and the coldness in his heart was not taken away by the mountain wind.
His vision had become ordinary, and he could not see clearly the gravel in the distance.
A bird chirped in his ear, but he didn't notice when it landed.
A dead leaf fell on his shoulder, but he could not find the trajectory of its falling.
