During the battle on the first front, when he first saw Chen Xi killing a group of peak saints by himself, Shi Chuge knew that there was something wrong with his Taoist heart.
For the first time in his life, he experienced what it means to be frustrated and confused, because he knew very clearly that if he were to face a group of peak saints, he would never be able to achieve this.
Being sober is sometimes the most painful thing in life.
When Shi Chuge clearly realized the gap between himself and Chen Xi, he was silent for a long time, and he was also confused for a long time, as if he had lost all motivation to seek the path.
When almost all the participants of the Dao Protector lineage had withdrawn from the battlefield, Shi Chuge was uncharacteristically following Chen Xi's footsteps and came to the sea of blood in the pagoda.
He couldn't explain why, it was like he wanted to find something he had lost, and this kind of thing could only be found in Chen Xi.
Unfortunately, when Shi Chuge arrived at the Sea of Blood of Pagoda, there was no trace of Chen Xi.
At that moment, he was completely at a loss and lost.
He felt that the sky could not tolerate him, so he fought with the sky. He felt that the earth was also mocking him, so he fought with the earth.
Everything abandoned him, but he refused to agree. He used all the strength in his body to fight and fight, without knowing why or what he wanted.
Until the last drop of strength in his body was exhausted, and his body fell into the sea of blood in the pagoda like a piece of rotten wood, Shi Chuge suddenly felt tired in his heart.
He hated this feeling and didn't want to go on like this anymore.
So, he stretched out his right hand from the sea, as if to hold something.
Then, a long river of fate appeared in his field of vision.
Break the situation.
Promotion.
Everything falls into place.
When Shi Chuge stood up from the sea, the confusion, delirium, and frustration in his heart were all swept away.
He became a Taoist master, glimpsed the power of destiny, and found his lost Taoist heart!
He had returned to his former composure, calmness, calmness, and graceful appearance, but the breath of fate told him that there was a trace of fetters in his heart.
Shi Chuge decided to solve this problem, and then he found Chen Xi in front of him.
…
"Fortunately, I have found my Taoist heart."
Shi Chuge looked at Chen Xi calmly and said, "So, my purpose of coming to you is very simple, I just want a fight."
Chen Xi didn't know what Shi Chuge had gone through, but looking at the other person's calm, firm, and persistent eyes, he immediately understood that if he didn't agree, this guy would definitely stick around to the end.
This made him frown, thought for a moment, and then said: "Every person has his own path, and we don't necessarily have to distinguish between high and low. In fact, the most difficult opponent to conquer in the world is often oneself."
Shi Chuge nodded: "I understand."
Chen Xi stared at the other person for a long time, and finally said: "You don't understand."
Shi Chuge frowned.
Chen Xi has turned around and left.
He left so naturally, without any hesitation, as if what needed to be explained had already been explained, what needed to be solved had been solved, and then all that was left was to leave.
Otherwise, what would you do if you keep it?
Too boring.
Shi Chuge frowned and looked at Chen Xi's back in the distance, but finally couldn't hold it back.
With a clang, the "Beacon Fire Blood Dome" inserted diagonally on the back was unsheathed, and the blood-red spear tip was thrust out through the air with a simple force.
Simple, clean and moving forward!
This is not the power of the realm of the Lord God, but this spear has gathered the most powerful power in Shi Chuge's life.
The void was calm, the world was as before, and everything seemed to be no different from before. Only a bloody gun shadow suddenly appeared behind Chen Xi and passed through.
This shot is so stunning that it can be crowned forever!
But when Shi Chuge witnessed this scene, he was completely stunned, with a bitter taste in his lips: "It turns out that he has already reached a height that I can't see..."
Wow~
At this time, Chen Xi's figure that was pierced by a spear disappeared suddenly like ripples, leaving only a trace of blood-colored spear tip stuck alone between heaven and earth, as if it had been forgotten.
Obviously, what was penetrated was Chen Xi's remaining shadow.
Shi Chuge also witnessed this scene and finally knew that he had been completely defeated from the moment he took action.
His most powerful shot penetrated only an afterimage.
Is there something wrong with Shi Chuge's mind?
No, it was because from the beginning to the end, he never discovered that Chen Xi had actually left!
He didn't even notice when Chen Xi left, which indeed proved that Shi Chuge had indeed been defeated from the moment he took action.
This is the difference.
At this moment, Shi Chuge finally saw the gap, but he had no way of knowing how big the gap was...
After standing alone by the sea of blood in the pagoda for a long time, Shi Chuge finally let out a long sigh, not even wanting to leave the "Blood Dome of Beacon Fire", and left aimlessly on his own.
The bleak figure looked extremely lonely in the empty world.
…
Sniping Highlands, in a camp belonging to the Dao Protector lineage.
Tang Xiaoxiao, Xia Ruoyuan, and Jin Yunsheng sat casually cross-legged in front of the camp, silent to each other.
They are waiting.
From the moment they decided to help Chen Xi, they knew that they would be regarded as traitors by the Dao Protectors.
Do you regret it?
They also asked themselves, and the answer they got was simple: they have no regrets.
This is the answer given by their Taoist heart. As a Taoist, what you cultivate is to follow your heart. If your heart is violated, how can you expect the Tao?
However, the thought of Chen Xi really dying in this battle to protect the way this time still made them sigh.
If Chen Xi is dead, then their efforts will not have much meaning. Meaningless things will always make people feel sad.
"What are you going to do if Chen Xi doesn't come back this time?"
Xia Ruoyuan suddenly spoke. He had a cold temperament and was decisive in killing, but at this moment he seemed to be hesitant.
"have no idea."
Tang Xiaoxiao held his innocent and clean face in his hands and said weakly.
"And you?"
Xia Ruoyuan looked at Jin Yunsheng on the other side.
"I……"
Jin Yunsheng opened his mouth, then said fiercely, gritting his teeth and said, "I will stay here. When I advance to the Tao Master realm, I will first go to the counter-dao lineage to fight fiercely to avenge Chen Xi, and then return to the clan.
I want to see if those guys who regarded me as a traitor at that time dare to break up with me!"
Xia Ruoyuan nodded: "This is a good idea."
Jin Yunsheng chuckled and couldn't help but ask: "What about you?"
Xia Ruoyuan said without hesitation: "It's almost the same as you."
Tang Xiaoxiao raised his head, glanced at Xia Ruoyuan with disdain, and said angrily: "Can you behave differently?"
Xia Ruoyuan said in confusion: "Then what do you think I should do?"
Tang Xiaoxiao immediately curled his lips and said feebly: "Don't ask me, I'm still annoyed enough now. I've had a severe headache since entering the battle to protect the way. If I had known this, I shouldn't have come here to get involved in this."
Wading in troubled waters.”
Xia Ruoyuan said: "So you regret it?"
Tang Xiaoxiao was immediately stung like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and shouted: "Who regrets it? Since I, Tang Xiaoxiao, dared to run to Shenyan Mountain alone back then, I have never regretted anything!"
Xia Ruoyuan nodded and said, "That's good."
However, Tang Xiaoxiao was still angry and said angrily: "How dare you ridicule me? Come on, let's have a fight!"
boom!
As she spoke, a blue scimitar that was longer than her body appeared out of thin air and struck Xia Ruoyuan on the head.
Xia Ruoyuan was immediately startled, dodged away, and said angrily: "What are you doing?"
Tang Xiaoxiao said proudly: "When fighting, vent your anger!"
Xia Ruoyuan's eyelids twitched, and he snorted suddenly, fighting spirit surged through his body, and said coldly: "Oh, then I've seen it before."
When Jin Yunsheng saw this, he immediately became anxious and shouted quickly: "You two, please have something to say, so as not to hurt the harmony..."
"Shut up!"
Tang Xiaoxiao and Xia Ruoyuan almost shouted at each other in unison, and soon their eyes met each other's eyes, both of them burning with fighting spirit.
Jin Yunsheng shut up decisively, even knowingly staying away for fear of being affected.
Rumble~~
The battle breaks out, divine light flows, and chaos reigns.
The two men were full of fighting spirit and showed no mercy in their attacks. They fought until the sky was dark, sand and rocks were flying, and the sun and moon were dimmed.
Seeing this, Jin Yunsheng sighed in his heart, knowing that both Xia Ruoyuan and Tang Xiaoxiaoshi were venting their anxiety.
Chen Xi has not returned for a long time, and they cannot return to the outside world immediately, leaving them in a dilemma. Who wouldn't feel a little depressed?
Even Jin Yunsheng sometimes wishes he could just ignore everything and just rush into the lair of the rebel lineage.
After a cup of tea.
The battle is over.
Tang Xiaoxiao looked gray and dusty, but his eyes were sparkling with a trace of satisfaction. He dropped the blue scimitar in his hand with a clang and let out a comfortable sigh.
On the other side, Xia Ruoyuan also had unkempt hair, ragged clothes, and was quite embarrassed, but his expression became much calmer than before.
"What are you doing?"
A voice came.
"fight."
"Take it out."
Tang Xiaoxiao and Xia Ruoyuan answered casually, then froze up and looked in the same direction, where a tall figure stood, looking at them with slight doubts.
Chen Xi!
The two of them stood up suddenly, with a look of joy on their brows, this guy actually came back alive!
"Fellow Daoist Chen Xi! You are finally back!"
Jin Yunsheng screamed in the distance, looking like he was about to cry with joy, which immediately made Tang Xiaoxiao and Xia Ruoyuan look down upon him. This guy was so embarrassing.
But they had to admit that they were actually filled with joy and excitement... so it was hard to laugh at Jin Yunsheng out loud.
"I'm back."
Chen Xi nodded, with a smile on his lips.
This was also the first time since he entered the land of sin to fight and kill, that indifferent face showed a smile, clean and gentle, even a little dazzling.
When Tang Xiaoxiao, Xia Ruoyuan and Jin Yunsheng saw this, they couldn't help but look at each other and smile.
At the same time, outside the source of the crime, a world-shaking wave suddenly arose——
