The system asked me, a weak woman, to challenge a saint

When Li Ke's eyes slowly opened, even though her vitality was almost exhausted, the firm light in those eyes still touched a certain string deep in Chen Subaru's heart.

Li Ke's body is now only supported by Su Lingyin's spiritual power, barely maintaining the appearance of life, and cannot even complete the most basic movements. However, when she saw Chen Subaru, she still squeezed out a weak smile and said in a weak voice: "Wen Ruo... junior brother, I... finally... have waited... for you."

Although Chen Subaru only inherited the memory of the original body and had no deep feelings for Li Ke, seeing her like this, perhaps because of the feeling of the loss of life, he could not help but feel a surge of sadness in his heart.

He slowly lowered his body, gently brushed away the hair covering Li Ke's face, and asked in a low voice: "Do you know who did this to you and Senior Sister Qin?"

Li Ke's pupils shrank sharply, but she soon regained her composure. She nodded gently, but then shook her head. Chen Subaru immediately understood. Although she knew the real murderer, she had to choose silence.

He thought for a while, changed the subject and asked: "Senior Sister Yuzhen, didn't you return to the sect to heal your injuries? How is your injury? Why were you sent to this cruel battlefield so quickly?"

Li Ke recalled for a moment and struggled to speak: "I'm really... good... Wen Ruo... has been... again... I don't know... for a while... I haven't been... actually... in me... Invasion of...Yizhou...disciples...met...a group of...Qingshi...arrived...missing...strange...bloodthirsty...unconscious...Gu...sister...leader...belly...Xuan ……remember……"

Her voice gradually became weaker and her words became fragmented, making it difficult for Chen Subaru to understand what she meant. He noticed that Su Lingyin's face became extremely pale. Obviously, Li Ke's fire of life was about to be extinguished.

Chen Subaru watched the tears rolling down Li Ke's eyes, the unwillingness and fear, and the subtle trembling caused by fear. She looked at herself helplessly.

At this time, Su Lingyin finally stopped injecting spiritual power into Li Ke's body and shook her head at Chen Subaru.

Sadness surged into Chen Subaru's heart. He took Li Ke's soft body and gently held her in his arms.

At the moment of the hug, Chen Subaru noticed that Li Ke's hand seemed to be gently placed on his waist. He immediately adjusted his position so that his right arm supported her head and she lay on his lap. He held her cold right hand tightly with his left hand, hoping that the other party would feel a trace of warmth from his hand.

Based on the knowledge of the body, Chen Subaru judged that this might be a person's "reflection" before death. He looked at Li Ke's eyes and became calm. The unwillingness and fear had disappeared. Their eyes met, and Chen Subaru felt a strange sense of calm.

Chen Subaru asked softly: "Senior Sister Yuzhen, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?"

Li Ke shook her head slowly, an imperceptible smile appeared on her face, and said softly: "I... Huang Quan... the next life..."

Although her voice was weak, Chen Subaru's heart moved. He recalled the scene when Ontology and Li Ke talked about the virtual space in Jinling Immortal Pavilion. At that time, they mentioned Empress Houtu and Huangquan. Ontology talked about reincarnation, while Li Ke talked about Yin and Yang and life and death. At this moment, he seemed to have touched some deep understanding, but this was not the time to meditate. He decided to leave this understanding for later.

A weak force came from Li Ke's hand, and she whispered: "I... want to... sleep..."

Then, with a smile, she slowly closed her eyes in Chen Subaru's arms.

Although Li Ke looked like she was sleeping, Chen Subaru clearly felt that her vitality had completely disappeared.

Facing the death of his old friend, Chen Subaru felt an unspeakable sadness in his heart. He couldn't help but wonder, why did he feel so sad because of his true love?

In this desolation, there is also a hint of anger that is not easy to detect.

Su Lingyin naturally felt Li Ke's death, but her emotions were completely different from Chen Subaru's. She has experienced too many life, separation, and death, and she no longer has much sentimentality about the departure of her comrades around her.

When she saw Chen Subaru hugging Li Ke silently, she thought he was in deep grief, so she didn't disturb him. She just sighed softly and prepared to check on other unconscious monks.

At this moment, Chen Subaru asked: "Elder Su, thank you for your help just now. I wonder what Elder Su could see just now?"

Su Lingyin was surprised by Chen Subaru's calmness, but then she thought about it. A monk who could rapidly improve his realm in a short period of time must be extremely determined. She smiled back and replied calmly: "The golden light outside Daoyou Li's body just now reminded me of a magic technique. I wonder if Young Master Wen Ruo still remembers the 'Tiangang Divine Technique' that was so popular back then?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Subaru immediately searched for information related to "Tiangang Divine Technique" in his memory. This memory is very important to the main body. It was this "Tiangang Divine Technique" that allowed the main body to spend a very depressed time when it lost the support of the system.

However, Chen Subaru, who had come into contact with the laws of yin and yang through the Liangyi Tianbing Sword, could clearly tell that the "Tiangang Divine Art" back then did not involve laws. It was a bit like the "pseudo yin and yang death formation", which was a set of imitations of certain laws. Use the puppetization technique designed for low-level monks.

The methods of the demon species are even more sophisticated, which already involve the advanced application of laws. In the level of saint cultivation, they may involve the application of laws above Hedao.

Su Lingyin watched Chen Subaru deep in thought and was not in a hurry to interrupt, but just waited quietly. Soon, Chen Subaru spoke, with a hint of understanding in his voice: "You mean, the 'Tiangang Divine Technique' is similar to the demon species?"

Su Lingyin nodded, with a hint of doubt in her words: "That's right, Young Master Wenruo, don't you think the appearance of the 'Tiangang Divine Technique' is too sudden?"

Su Lingyin's words seemed to open a new door for Chen Subaru, and his mind was ready to start galloping along a new road. However, at this moment, Su Lingyin's voice stopped him at the right time: "Young Master Wen Ruo, how should we deal with these fellow disciples of Fellow Daoist Li?"

Only then did Chen Subaru remember that he was still holding Li Ke's body and that there were also a group of monks who were unconscious after being contaminated by the demon species. These monks did not wear uniform clothes, and except for Li Ke and Qin Qing, he did not know anyone else. So, he asked doubtfully: "Are these people Li Ke's classmates?"

Su Lingyin was very clear about the composition of the coalition forces. She replied: "Yes, these are monks from the Ruyi Sect. Their cultivation is not high, but when performing coalition missions in the hinterland of Yizhou, their survival rate is higher than that of other sects. Many. This is incredible, and we once wondered whether their eyes that were indifferent to life were the secret to their survival."

Seeing that Chen Subaru was lost in thought again, Su Lingyin said in time: "It's not a solution for these people to be here all the time. We still have to find a way to solve these problems first..."

However, before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Chen Subaru's cold voice: "It's hopeless. They don't know more than Senior Sister Yuzhen, so kill them all."

Su Lingyin was still shocked by Chen Subaru's decisiveness. A sharp sword appeared from his side, and a white light flashed past the necks of Qin Qing and others. At the same time, the pressure of divine consciousness from the cultivator of the gods, Kill all the auras that are about to emerge from these monks' bodies.

Chen Subaru gently placed Li Ke's body next to Qin Qing. His voice was still cold: "These monks infected by the demon seed, even if their lives disappear, the power of the demon seed can still control their remaining vitality and let their The activities of spiritual bodies are difficult to deal with. We must use powerful spiritual pressure to completely remove the contamination before they can control the spiritual bodies."

After placing Li Ke's spirit body, Chen Subaru turned to Su Lingyin and said, "I will leave the remains of these monks to you. If we can all survive, I can provide a secret hiding place. After the war, we will They sent them back to the sect. But if we cannot survive, then these bodies should be disposed of as soon as possible to avoid being desecrated by those beasts."

Seeing Chen Subaru's resolute figure, Su Lingyin did not hesitate for too long, and she quickly made a decision.

After solving the hidden danger of the demon species, Su Lingyin led 639 monks and was organized into various links of the defensive formation by Elder Qin after a message transmission. Under the guidance, Chen Subaru and Su Lingyin began to return to Feizhou Camp with eighty-five Danjie monks, and the bodies of Li Ke and others were also taken away.

The remaining six Nascent Soul early stage monks and Concentrating Soul monks were guided to other places to fight against the monster soldiers. Chen Subaru left full control over the tactical arrangements to Elder Qin and others. They have been fighting overseas monsters for many years and have rich experience in group fighting.

On the way back to Feizhou Camp, Chen Subaru realized that time was running out and asked Su Lingyin directly: "Elder Su, you mentioned before that the timing of the appearance of the 'Tiangang Divine Technique' was wrong. Did you notice anything?"

Su Lingyin replied: "Yes, when I noticed that the aura of the demon species was similar to the 'Tiangang Divine Art', I contacted all the previous suspicions about the mysterious appearance of the 'Tiangang Divine Art'. Wen Ruoshao Lord, you also participated in the battle of the Yishui Secret Realm before, didn’t you realize that the emergence of the secret realm was obviously intentional?”

Chen Subaru knew in his heart that all this was deliberately arranged by Zhang Maoxiu, but he couldn't say it now, so he replied calmly: "At that time, my strength was low. I just entered the secret realm by mistake. I was only thinking about how to survive, and I didn't think deeply."

When Su Lingyin heard this, she smiled bitterly and continued: "After the 'Tiangang Divine Technique' spread from the secret realm of Yishui, there were various rumors and speculations in the world of immortality. Until someone revealed the secret of 'Tiangang Divine Technique' A scam, people realized that the Yishui Secret Realm turned out to be an invasion exit of the Saint Clan. But why did the Saint Clan expose one of their invasion exits so early? Are they so confident that even if the Jin Dynasty discovered this exit, they would not be able to stop the Saint Clan Invasion? But judging from the confrontation in Wuchang Little World, Da Jin is not unable to defend. They exposed these space exits too early, which made Da Jin more certain to successfully defend. Is this intended to deliberately distract Da Jin's military strength? The reason is not sufficient. In any case, under the condition of hiding the exit, the probability of the Holy Clan's invasion being successful is much higher than being exposed, otherwise they would not try their best to hide the secrets of Wuchang Small World."
