[Cultivation] Asking for a sword

When Gu Cheng woke up, he only felt a little sore on his body, but other than that, there was no serious problem. Not far from him was Chu Han. He stood up and walked over, pushed, but he didn't wake up. Gu Cheng was a little worried. He propped up the protective cover to block the sea water around the bottom of the sea, then picked him up and checked him with spiritual power.

There is nothing unusual, but I don't know why I just don't wake up.

Gu Cheng stood up and looked around. This place seemed to be outside a relic, which was a bit of a coincidence. It was just a whirlpool. It was just so right. He looked around. Ah Si was behind a stone. He walked over to have a look. The woman had wounds all over her body, which was not surprising. She was just a monk in the Foundation Establishment Stage and did not have the powerful body of the Nascent Soul Stage. Facing the situation just now, she was lucky to not die. Gu Cheng pushed her.

After feeding her some pills, Ah Si finally woke up.

"here is?"

Gu Cheng shook his head.

She got up slowly, looked at the ruins, and suddenly started to cry. She knelt down and kissed the soil under her feet.

Gu Cheng was startled by her.

"what happened to you?"

"This is Gulal." The woman stood up after kowtowing three times. She uttered a strange syllable, and then explained: "It means the source of prayer, and it is the source of the legendary Sea Clan's belief."

"How did we come here?"

The woman shook her head: "I don't know, logically speaking, even if you want to sacrifice Hai Ling, you can't come here, unless the source actively pulls you in."

Gu Cheng looked at the underwater ruins in front of him. It was very large and very old. Everything inside seemed to have been abandoned for a long time.

He took a look and then turned his head, helped Chu Han up, and carried him behind his back: "Let's leave first!"

Ah Si shook his head: "It's hard, this is the final destination, and few people can leave!"

Looking at her, Gu Cheng suddenly felt a little troublesome. This kind of religious belief has always been the most troublesome kind. That kind of unknown existence does have many unpredictable abilities, but as a cultivator, he still blindly believes in gods. Somewhat inexplicable.

But after hearing what Ah Si said, he still went around and looked around to see if there were any restrictions.

It is indeed very deep here, and it is very strange. The closer you are to the ruins, the sea pressure will be mostly eliminated, but the farther you are from the ruins, the sea water will become heavier, and the strong pressure will continue to press down. Gu Cheng insists on going out After 1000 meters, he finally had to come back. If he was alone, although he was reluctant, he might not be able to leave, but Chu Han couldn't. Gu Cheng is on par, but his swordsmanship is too strong to ignore others.

Gu Cheng also felt that something was wrong, why Chu Han still didn't wake up.

Ah Si came over, hesitated for a while before saying, "Look at his eyes."

Gu Cheng paused: "What did you guess?"

He opened Chu Han's eyes, and there was nothing wrong, Ah Si forced a smile: "I made a mistake."

Gu Cheng frowned: "It's really troublesome to leave here."

He rummaged through the storage bag. Although he didn't know what was going on with Chu Han, he still took out some elixirs and liquids for him to drink. Ah Si watched from the side, but walked away calmly. farther away.

"Tell me everything you know, maybe you can come up with a solution." Gu Cheng said casually.

Ah Si responded, and then began to slowly explain: "The source of prayer was originally a place of worship for the Sea Clan, but something happened later, the spiritual source here was destroyed, and since then, there has been no birth People can come here again."

"En?" Gu Cheng frowned, "Strange people? You mean there are only dead people here?"

Ah Si nodded slowly.

"It should still be daytime now, and at night, there will be singing here, which is the sacrificial song of the past."

"Who's singing that?"

Ah Si shook his head: "I don't know, it seems to be an image of the past, and I also heard the elders mention it occasionally."

The identity of the sea girl is indeed a bit special in Sea Monster City. Even if her cultivation level is not high, she knows a lot of things because of her special role.

Gu Cheng asked him: "You let me look into his eyes earlier, what did you find?"

Ah Si paused for a moment before hesitatingly said: "I thought he was already dead, that's why he was summoned by the source."

Gu Cheng frowned and said, "You guessed wrong!"

Ah Si nodded: "Well, I was indeed wrong."

"Let's go in!" She pointed to the ruins, "The inside is the exit."

Gu Cheng looked around. Indeed, in this depth of tens of thousands of feet, if there is no special passage, unless you are a powerhouse at the level of a god, it is unlikely to leave.

Right now they can only choose to enter the ruins

Surprisingly, the building I saw after entering the ruins was very different from what I saw outside. The inside was very solemn and solemn, rather than the original dilapidated and defeated one.

Gu Cheng sensed it with his spiritual sense, and he was a little surprised by the sense he got. These are all true, which means that the illusion here can be hidden from his spiritual sense, so it should not be underestimated.

The more the two walked in, the denser the surrounding buildings became, but they were all dark black, with dark blue runes painted on the walls, but the history could not be seen, but the carvings on them were extremely exquisite, and most of them were The decorations are all kinds of crystal clear fish bones, no matter how big or small they are, they are neatly placed by the door.

It's just that it's too quiet here, even after being as cautious as possible, it's hard to hear the footsteps of the two of them.

Gu Cheng raised his head and looked at the most middle position, the place is unusually wide, red stone bricks are paved under his feet, and there is a strange fragrance in the air.

Then all of a sudden they saw humans.

All kinds, men, women, young and old, are all wearing azure blue shawl robes, with waves drawn between their brows, and they are worshiping with low voices.

Gu Cheng couldn't understand their language, but Ah Si, who was beside him, rushed forward with a frenzied expression and joined the worshiping team.

In the middle is a boxy stone platform, which is tall but not big, and can accommodate up to four or five people standing on it.

A circle of fish bones surrounds the edge of the stone platform. The bones have been polished to shine, and then someone painted them with blood.

Four or five men slaughtered monsters that had been imprisoned, just like mortals slaughtered cattle and sheep. The blood in the big bowl was poured into the soil, and the internal organs and bones were taken out in different categories, packed, and placed on the other side. On a lower stone platform.

There are also ten middle-aged men in extremely strange attire, shirtless to the waist, with special runes smeared on their faces and bodies with blood, and then they began to wave the knives and sticks in their hands, and jumped up amidst the continuous sound of drumming , with heavy steps and vigorous momentum.

On the opposite side of the stone platform is an extremely tall throne, the base is made of Geng gold, and an extremely thick fish bone is smoothed on the back, and various decorations are hung on the bones on both sides. A bowl-sized pearl is inlaid inside, shining brightly and dazzingly.

Gu Cheng sighed in a low voice, it was indeed a huge sacrifice, but whether what he saw now was the old shadow from thousands of years ago or the illusion produced by being confused, he knelt down and touched the blood flowing from the red stone bricks, the tentacles were slippery , full of fishy smell.

Suddenly, a person came out. He was wearing a snow-white robe, with half a mask on his face. Half of the mask was bright red and the other half was silver. His exposed eyes were extremely calm, as cold as death. A scepter, the body of which is also made of Geng Jin, with a huge black pearl on the top, and human-like finger bones on the side, hanging and winding with golden silk thread.

God, holding a scepter representing supreme divine power,

Stepping on stone bricks made of blood,

His face was so proud,

His hands bring the tides and surges.

"Gulal, eternal destination!"

"Gulal, the god of the tide!"

Gu Cheng felt a kind of suffocation, a kind of too cruel beauty, they paved the way with blood to welcome the coming gods, is this faith?

— This is madness.

Faith makes people pious, madness brings destruction.

He just watched quietly, the people here didn't actually exist, he could see them, but they couldn't see him.

But suddenly, the priest in the snow-white robe came over. He was walking barefoot on the blood-red stone bricks. The people around made way for him and bowed down to him.

Gu Cheng hugged Chu Han tightly, and suddenly felt a chill.

The priest's hand passed through Gu Cheng and easily touched Chu Han in his arms.

There was azure blue powder on his fingers, and he dabbed it lightly on the center of Chu Han's eyebrows, drawing a blue wave pattern.

Gu Cheng could feel the coldness in his chest, and then there was a kind of fear. For the people here, he couldn't get in touch with them at all, but Chu Han, why would he...

Chu Han opened his eyes. He grabbed the priest's hand and stopped him from moving. His eyes were extremely cold and deep.

"roll!"

Then everything in front of me began to change. The original noisy and lively voices turned into the hissing of flames and screams. All the fallen corpses had their throats cut, and the blood that flowed out was evaporated by the fire, rising into a faint blood mist , the stone bricks were still bright red with blood, but the scepter on the throne was twisted off, black pearl bones fell down, and some were crushed into powder by someone's foot.

But the singing is still there, and it is the woman crying in a low voice.

Gu Cheng saw that Ah Si was kneeling on the ground, humming a song, but behind him a man wrapped in a black cloth raised a butcher's knife at her.

"Snapped!"

Her head fell to the ground, her eyes still full of sadness.

If you don't believe, you won't enter, if you don't enter, you won't perish.

—she died of her beliefs.

Chu Han was fighting the priest, Lu Xue collided with the scimitar, Chu Han's sword was cold and sharp, while the scimitar was weird, the blade kept spinning on the sword, like a beating musical note.

There are too many strange and inexplicable things here, but in fact, it is just the disorder of time, or because of the special location, or because of the resentment in the past, the scene of disillusionment thousands of years ago has continued to this day.

Gu Cheng walked over, he held Ah Si's head in his hands, and closed her eyes.

Among the blood and fire, nothing else can be seen.

Then everything returned to calm, all illusions disappeared, and the surroundings returned to their original dilapidated state. Chu Han held his sword upside down and split the stone platform with one sword, revealing a cave below.

"This is the exit."

Gu Cheng paused for a moment before asking him, "What happened to you just now?"

There was a hint of deep thought in Chu Han's eyes, he lowered his eyes, and retracted his shoes.

In the extremely deep and dark seabed, he saw a soul sealed on the throne, and the other party said flatly, "So it's you."

Chu Han didn't understand what it meant, so he could only remain silent.

Hailing doesn't have a real entity, it's like an illusory imagination.

"I have been bound by my faith for tens of thousands of years, but when I chose to leave, they chose to seal me."

It sighed, with a faint and low voice: "There are no gods in the world, they are just some life forms that are much stronger than ordinary people. Whether they are gods or immortals, they are not omnipotent after all."

"What are you looking for from me?"

"Take me out of here."

Chu Han was silent for a while, then said, "I have no such obligation."

"You will agree, otherwise you will not be able to leave."

Chu Han held the hilt of the sword: "I don't believe it."

Hai Ling let out a strange laugh: "You can't even leave my world now, how can you leave!"

Chu Han walked to the side of the throne, slashed at the phantom inside, and then he saw countless faces emerging from the mist, their expressions were extremely frenzied, and they rushed forward and bit his sword.

"It's just a transaction, and you don't need to pay any more."

Its voice became very strange: "Not to mention your current state, do you need my help?"

Chu Han paused before saying, "I'm fine now."

Then he stretched out his hand to catch something thrown from afar, and spread out his palm, it was a snow-white finger bone.

"Take me away, I've been tired of being here for a long time."

The legendary Poseidon is a huge and burly monster, its body is covered with scales, its head is covered with dark green hair, it looks quite ugly and terrifying.

Chu Han didn't know if this was true, but he looked at the thing in his hand, thought about it and still didn't throw it away.

Then he left here and returned to the ruins of reality.

Everything in front of him was somewhat similar to the ones he saw. They walked into the cave, and the smell inside had a smell of decay for a long time. In the middle, a hill-like corpse lay quietly on the ground, one by one. The clear white bone was on the ground, and Chu Han felt the heat from his palm, so he went up and put the finger bone and the corpse together.

The corpse spontaneously combusted and turned into ashes.

At the same time, there was also a sigh, which was faint and distant.

"Sealing or expulsion, which one is more unfortunate?"

Gu Cheng didn't understand what he said, "Who are you referring to?"

Chu Han thought for a while and explained to him: "Thousands of years ago, the sea god believed by the people here began to weaken and degenerate. It wanted to leave to find a solution. The sea people who worshiped it begged for it. It was still unwilling to stay, and then it was sealed, and when its power declined to the extreme, it was abandoned."

Gu Cheng sighed: "It's a very unfortunate story."

"Maybe!" Chu Han filled a white bottle with some ashes on the ground, "From its point of view, it is so, but for believers, it is another kind of misfortune."

"It found you? Why?"

"I don't know." Chu Han shook his head, "Leave first!"

There was a tunnel in the cave, which was very long and deep. It took them ten days to get out, but they lost their way because of it.

Chu Han poured the bottle of ashes into the sea, and vaguely heard a long chant.

"Let's go!"

In the end, I found the right direction, and the journey ahead was very calm, without any twists and turns.

They came to the Eastern Sky Continent.

It was a petite boy with a fair face, long black hair, and a feminine face.

Chu Han frowned: "Why do you follow?"

A faint smile appeared on the little boy's face: "I'm happy."

Gu Cheng was also speechless watching from the side, even if you are really happy, you don't have to make yourself into this kind of virtue, you are obviously already ten thousand years old, and you are still pretending to be tender.

"I also played a role, without me, how can you arrive smoothly?"

"It's just a little less troublesome." Gu Cheng felt a little headache. How to count the strength of a spirit body. This one is more troublesome than a sword spirit. The power of faith is just like a bright light in the dark. It's really troublesome.

"I can restrain my breath." He narrowed his eyes and said, "But you have to protect me."

Gu Cheng chuckled, then reached out and tugged at the little boy's cheek.

"think too much."

The little boy turned his head away, with a cold expression on his face: "Hmph, this is also part of the deal."

Chu Han looked at him quietly, then he stretched out his hand to the little boy, Gu Cheng was stunned, then he watched them hold hands together.

Chu Han swung him vigorously and threw him out.

Gu Cheng glanced at the distance: "Oh! It's quite far away."

"gone."

After passing the coast, you can see scattered mortals, no monks, and they are quite backward. Considering the remote location here, it may be normal.

The two drove on the cloud boat, and soon arrived at a small monk's station, and that person didn't follow, which made them feel satisfied.

It's better not to involve such inexplicable spirit bodies, they are not here to cause trouble.

The strongest monks in the station had just arrived at Foundation Establishment, so Gu Cheng went down to ask for directions, traded a map, and then planned where to go.

"How is Yingu?" Gu Cheng asked.

"It doesn't matter where, as long as you're here."

Gu Cheng was silent for a long time before he said, "Did I hear correctly? You just..."

"You still think you heard it wrong!"

Chu Han had no expression on his face.

"Oh no, I'm really touched." Gu Cheng smiled, and then said, "We still have a long, long future."

Chu Han responded.

The future is indeed very long.

The author has something to say: Notice: On April 4th, chapter 20 will be reversed, and I will finish it within these two days. The modern side wrote a paragraph, and then silently deleted it.

Thank you for your support, but I have too many personal problems orz

I'm just talking nonsense... Please feel free to make up the story behind, I think sweet things should be the beginning, not the end, and there will always be regrets in the ending...

One hundred chapters, um, that's a good number, so it's over.
