As the last fragment of bones was burned away, there was no longer a gloomy castle in the Forest of Bones. Even the countless bones laying on the ground were burned away, revealing a dark land where the sun and moon had not seen for ten thousand years. Although Xi Ling
When releasing the wrath of Nine Suns, the range was deliberately controlled, but the golden flames that rushed out of the gloomy castle still affected the surrounding area of nearly a kilometer, causing everything within the kilometer to be burned to ashes.
No matter how terrifying the flame is, there will eventually be a moment when it goes out. When the last fragment of the gloomy castle disappears, the nine golden suns completely disappear in the sky, and the flame stops boiling and is quickly extinguished. No more.
Covering it up, the light shone unbridled, making Ling Chen's surroundings no longer dark.
A red shadow slowly floated down from the sky, as light as cotton wool carried by the breeze. Ling Chen took a step forward, stretched out his hands, and caught the falling Xi Ling to prevent it from falling to the hot ground.
.
There was no flame left on Xi Ling's body. Ling Chen could barely feel any warmth when he touched its body. Its body was trembling slightly. The phoenix head wanted to raise its head, but was unable to do so. He could only send out
A weak, hoarse cry that was almost inaudible.
"Xi Ling..." Ling Chen bit his lip, but could only let out a helpless sigh. This result was already destined the moment Xi Ling released Jiuyang. He could not change it, and it was impossible to change it, let alone
He has no ability to save Xi Ling, who has burned out the flames of life and is on the verge of death.
"Xi Ling, you have the ability that only the Golden Crow can have, making even the powerful Demon Emperor and the Ten Demonic Beasts fear you, and I am just an ordinary human who has just stepped into the Shenyue Continent. In this world, thousands of people are afraid of you.
Ten thousand of my lives combined are not as precious as one of your feathers. What qualifications do I have to let you do this..."
Ling Chen muttered in a low voice, feeling a little lost... In his life, what he endured the most was all kinds of pain and torture, and the least was warmth and kindness. Before meeting Shui Ruo, the world in his eyes was cold.
He is also cold and ruthless, more terrifying than the devil. Shui Ruo has changed his life, and he is willing to repay him with his own life. The gratitude and warmth he felt back then have already been transformed into eternity in the moment of being together.
Inseparable emotion and dependence. Except for Shui Ruo and his adoptive parents, he never thought that he owed anyone...
But in this virtual world, a "beast" he rescued casually protected him with his life time and time again...
"When I saved you, it was just a casual and simple act. I never thought about your repayment... On Lonely Soul Ridge, you saved me at the cost of burning your own life. From that time on, you have no longer
Owe me anything again... Right now, I am the only one who owes you, and you don't need to save me in this way."
If he had not chosen to break into the gloomy castle despite knowing the danger before after completing the mission in the Forest of Bones, he would not have encountered all this, and nothing would have happened to Xi Ling... He was willing to challenge all kinds of dangers, even if he knew that he might be
He faced the abyss of death from which he could not turn back. Even if he died, he would not have any regrets. But looking at Xi Ling who was about to die, he finally woke up... Now he is no longer alone at all. There are people beside him
Xiao Hui, and Xi Ling, by taking risks, he not only put himself in danger, but also put his friends around him in danger.
Xi Ling could no longer answer him. If she could answer, it would definitely be "I am willing to do so"...
"It won't die for the time being." Qi Yue's sigh sounded in Ling Chen's mind. She also deeply regretted Xi Ling's ending. An ultimate creature that could control the fire of the root, but it has become like this.
To die for the sake of a human being is unacceptable in the eyes of any creature in the Shenyue Continent.
"What do you mean..." After hearing Qi Yue's words, Ling Chen was slightly shaken.
"If it was not your pet, it would have died immediately, but don't forget, this is its second life, and its current life source depends on your life source. As long as it can get close to you, it will
It can rely on your breath of life to prevent it from dying immediately... However, its state is not much different from death. Now it has no ability to move, let alone fight, even if it tries its best to survive.
, and it won’t last long at all.” Qi Yue replied.
Ling Chen squeezed his hands slightly, frowned and whispered: "Qiyue, I just want to know now, is there any way to save Xi Ling... You lived ten thousand years ago, and you know countless things that others don't know.
, there must be some way, right?"
What Ling Chen received was Qi Yue's silence, no answer...but no denial either.
Qi Yue's reaction made Ling Chen seem to see the light of hope all of a sudden, and his voice became urgent: "Qi Yue, do you really know how to save Xi Ling?"
Qi Yue remained silent, as if hesitating whether to tell Ling Chen or not. After a few seconds, she quietly said: "You can say yes, you can also say no... because for the current little master, there is indeed a way to do it.
Rescue Xi Ling, but it is exactly the same as not having it."
Qi Yue's meaning was clear. Although there was a way to save Xi Ling, that method was too difficult and impossible for Ling Chen to complete.
"What method is it? Tell me immediately! As long as I can save Xi Ling, even if it is more difficult than climbing to the sky, I will try it!!" Ling Chen said with a decisive and cold voice.
"...Okay, since the little master is so insistent, I will talk to the little master later, but compared to this...little master, don't you feel anything strange?" Qi Yue said suddenly.
"Strange... place?" Ling Chen raised his head and looked around.
The flames had been extinguished, leaving only clusters of tiny flames scattered on the ground. Not far in front of him, there was the fallen and motionless Zhan Que skeleton. Its body was unexpectedly not damaged.
The golden flame completely melted, but it must have died. Ling Chen saw the half-soul girl wearing a black dress at the sternum of its huge fallen body...
"do not die……"
"don't want……"
She cried, releasing a heart-wrenching voice in her sobs.
This girl has been here for who knows how long, and this huge skeleton is her only partner, only dependence, and can also be said to be her only relative. Now that it is dead, no one can bear this kind of blow... Even she
She is a girl with only half a soul.
She is now much more sad than Ling Chen who is about to lose Xi Ling... She has been crying and shouting softly, and has completely forgotten Ling Chen's existence.
That girl...
etc!!
Looking at the huge fallen skeleton, Ling Chen finally understood what the "strange place" she was talking about was.
The Skeleton of Zhanque has obviously been destroyed by Xi Ling, but why has there never been a sound in my ears that the Heavenly BOSS has been killed? At the same time, there are no skill points, reputation gain, or even experience points.
changes.
What's going on? Is it possible that there is no gain from killing this giant skeleton? It won't even explode?
"do not die……"
"do not die……"
"don't want……"
Ling Chen looked at the crying girl in surprise. She had no body and should not have tears. But Ling Chen clearly saw drops of water slipping from her eyes and falling on Zhanque.
Her voice kept repeating those three words on her body. It was so slight, but it made people's hearts tremble like a cuckoo weeping blood.
"do not die……"
"don't want!!!!"
The weak shout suddenly turned into a hoarse roar at this moment. The sudden sound had a terrifying penetrating power, which made Ling Chen's eardrums feel a clear sting. It was also caused by the girl's sharp long hair.
The moment the bell rang, a thick black mist suddenly rose from her body...
What is that? Ling Chen was shocked.
boom……
The ground suddenly trembled, and a terrifying aura descended from nowhere at that moment, pressing hard on Ling Chen's body and heart.
Amidst the trembling of the ground and Ling Chen's suddenly dilated pupils, he saw that the fallen Zhan Que's skeleton moved. The hand that had been holding the giant sword was slowly raised, and its upper body also
He sat up like a mountain, with two green flames burning in his empty eyes...
The heavy sound that should not have appeared once again sounded in Ling Chen's ears.
