Throne Steps

Zhenbao is a spherical magic crystal that is bigger than an open palm. As long as it gets in, the negative state on its body will be continuously dispelled.It is said that this magic crystal has never been cut, it is born so round, I am afraid it is God's will.

On the other side of the treasure, facing the door, is an open viewing platform.The light of the treasure is emitted from here, and it can be seen by the people in the capital of the temple at night.Only when the curtain of the overlooking platform is drawn up, the light of the treasure will be blocked.

Only on the day of the purification ceremony will the heavy curtain be drawn.

Li Chen wandered around the room and said in surprise: "The defense here is so weak? The balcony is still fully open. Aren't you afraid that the treasure will be stolen?"

"No one can get in." Saenz closed the double doors, then walked to the edge of the overlooking platform, looked into the distance, then turned to look at Li Chen, "Are you still watching? If you don't, I'll close it The curtain is up."

"Well, no one can come up, but if the bone dragon stays under this balcony, it will take a few minutes to grab the treasure by stretching its head, so don't take it lightly." Li Chen walked into the room and thought about it Returning to the edge of the balcony, he grabbed the curtain and laughed, "No, I, the guard, should do this."

So he went to draw the curtains, the one on the left, then the one on the right.When the curtains on both sides were closed, he was wrapped around his waist by a pair of strong arms, and then fell into a warm embrace.

Beside the jewel that removes all negativity, and at the same time in the embrace of pure white, it is no exaggeration, this feeling is heaven on earth.

Li Chen sighed, turned his head, and kissed Saenz with his head on his shoulder.

Then he turned around in the pure white arms, embraced this man, lips and teeth intertwined.They both know how to please each other, and enjoy each other's pleasure calmly.Facing the person they are embracing, they are always unable to help themselves.

This time it was Saenz who stopped the car first.

He gently stroked the corner of Li Chen's mouth, his voice hoarse: "Don't do things that I can't control."

Li Chen smiled, he and Saenz looked at each other, a golden light flashed through their pupils.In the dimly lit room, the golden color seemed to carry a strange temptation.

Saenz closed his eyes, let go of him, and took a step back.Then he turned and walked away, without looking back, he said, "Whatever you want to do, just start."

Li Chen looked at his back, and the corners of his mouth twitched.Saenz stood still on the side, and when he turned around, Li Chen's smile disappeared again.

They stared at each other in silence for a few seconds.

Li Chen moved his fingers, and finally took out a pen from the storage ring.

"This is a pen that will fade. Don't worry, what I draw will not leave any mark." Li Chen smiled, but did not go to Zhenbao, but went to Saenz first.He pulled out another chair and put it next to Saenz.

Saenz glanced at the ring on Li Chen's little finger with a complicated expression, and then looked at the chair.The ring was given to Li Chen by him himself, and the chair was the one that Li Chen used to support him after he got off Long's body for the first time a year and a half ago.

He didn't sit at that time, and now Li Chen doesn't seem to care whether he wants to sit or not.After putting the chair away, Lichen turned around and walked towards Zhenbao.

But he didn't approach, but raised his hand two steps away from Saenz and gestured towards Treasure Void.

Saenz forced himself to calm down, sat down on the chair and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Consider the proportions, I have to make sure to start from a far place." Li Chen replied naturally, "It was my turn to draw such a large fixed center formation, so I thought it was not so simple. I really don't know when Xi Jin How did Si’s resurrection formation be so large and so accurate.”

Saenz felt that his soul and body were separated. The soul was pressed hard by the extremely heavy stone, but the body could continue to chat calmly: "Can't you start painting from the middle?"

"Intuition tells me that it's best not to do such opportunistic things." Li Chen seemed to have confirmed his position, and then took a step forward obliquely, "Let's follow the true order of the formation."

He squatted down, the pen landed on the ground, and drew the first sinuous line.

Saenz silently looked at the formations on the ground bit by bit by handwriting.

Li Chen planned not to bother when chanting the mantra, but to draw it first, and then cast magic power according to this pattern.Saenz has never seen this formation, and he is not interested in exploring it now.He seemed to be in a mess, and he seemed to be thinking of nothing; there seemed to be a voice in his heart that was desperately shouting "Say something", but he couldn't get a word out of his mouth.

He seemed to have lost his voice and lost his mind, staring blankly at the pen tip under Li Chen's hand.

He couldn't speak, but Li Chen, who seemed to be concentrating on drawing the formation, spoke.

"Speaking of which, I couldn't see this formation clearly when I saw it for the first time." He said while drawing, "It was the night when I first saw you, and I dreamed of this formation for the first time."

Saenz wanted to answer "Really", but he couldn't even say these two words.

Li Chen didn't seem to care about the man's silence, and continued: "The second time, it was the first time after the completion of the Ainuma Temple, oh, it was the only time you participated. That day, I was in When praying in front of the treasure image teleportation formation, he suddenly entered a mysterious and mysterious state, and then he seemed to see a golden gate with the pattern of this formation engraved on it. This time the pattern is very clear, and it is even more magical I was the one who still remembered when I got out of this state! As soon as I got out, I found a pen and paper to draw it..."

He rambled on, as if telling his own story, but there was always a shadow of Saenz in his stories.Once, twice, three times.

"The third time is the time under the tree of life." Li Chen said, the movements of his hands inevitably slowed down, but he still moved forward meticulously and accurately, "To be honest, you only told me the night before. It’s really embarrassing to think about a question. I think about it, why don’t I ask again whether the hint that Zhenbao gave me is true or not, two-way verification. But asking a question that already knows the answer, it’s a little bit now that I think about it waste……"

So what do you really want to ask?Saenz thought to himself, if you were asked about the tree of life now, what would you want to ask?

Do you know how……

"Do you know? I've been asking myself a question recently." Li Chen said softly, "Should I do this or not?"

His tone suddenly changed, which was hard to detect, but Saenz, who had been staring at him closely and knew him beyond familiarity, felt it.His tone was very relaxed before, or pretending to be relaxed, but suddenly it became a little deeper.

The movements of Li Chen's hands paused for a moment, and then he continued to draw, and the words in his mouth did not stop: "Well, in fact, I am not only asking myself one question... I am still asking, what am I thinking? What do I really want? How To?"

Every time he asked a question, the boulder in Saenz's heart shook.The pure white color stared at the person who hadn't looked back, his eyes darkened a little bit, but lightened a little bit.

Li Chen was still talking about his question: "...Am I being too selfish when I do this? Or is it selfish if I don't do it?"

Saenz stood up abruptly, and the chair even made a "squeak" sound because of his sudden movement against the ground.

Li Chen looked back at him, suddenly smiled at him, and then turned back to continue drawing his picture.He stopped talking, so the movements of his hands became faster again.Saenz stood behind him, looking at him with scorching eyes, but didn't say a word.

Li Chen finally finished drawing the formation.

He stood up, took a few steps back, and stood outside the formation and looked at it carefully for a while, like a candidate checking an exam paper.He took out another piece of paper and compared the content on the paper with the texture of the ground.It wasn't until everything fit together that he nodded in self-affirmation.

Paper and pen disappeared from his hands.

He turned his back to Saenz, closed his eyes, and took a long, deep breath.Like an athlete standing on the track waiting for the starting gun, like a young eagle standing on the edge of a cliff to encourage himself to fly down, like an arrow stretched on a bow ready to go.

He opened his eyes, but what he wanted to blurt out was not the spell he knew by heart.

He turned around, looked at the man, and walked towards him.Every step he took seemed to be stepping on the man's heart, making his heart beat like thunder, and he was so happy.

This feeling was even fed back to Li Chen through the contract.

"I've been hesitating about this question for a year... no, it's been a long time, whether I should ask you." Li Chen stood still in front of him, "I think it would be too selfish if I didn't give you the right to choose, but It would seem more selfish if you asked."

Saenz shook his head slightly.

"Actually, in this matter, I was cowardly. You know, in order to achieve my goal, I am not afraid of anything. Only in this matter, I admit that I was cowardly." Li Chen continued, "You go away 99 steps, but I can't take this one, I'm sorry."

Under Saenz's gaze, he backed away slowly.Panic flashed across Saenz's expression, and he raised his hand to grab him, but in the end he just squeezed his fingers and nailed him firmly in place.

Li Chen stood in the formation, looked at Saenz, and sighed softly: "Oh... I also look down on myself, in fact, I am still very cowardly."

Saenz's eyes gradually darkened, but the next second, he couldn't believe his ears.

"Because I'm cowardly, I won't wait for your answer." Li Chen said, "I'll start reciting spells as soon as I finish asking. I'm a dragon now, and spells and casting spells are very fast, do you understand?"

He took a deep breath, slowly pulled out a smile, and opened his lips in Saenz's expectant gaze.

"Would you like to come with me?"

On the square in front of the temple in the city of temples, thousands of believers gathered, kneeling on the ground and praying silently.

The radiance of the treasure was covered by the curtain, and it was difficult for them to search for that ray of comforting brilliance, so they could only wait quietly and silently recite their wishes in their hearts.

As long as the night passes and the light comes, it is the time when the light of treasure shines in people's hearts again.

But on this day, something happened that everyone will never forget.This incident was even more shocking, shocking, and disturbing than seeing a living dragon.

The spire on the top of the temple suddenly burst out with extremely strong light!This light penetrated the curtain and rushed into the distance, even brighter than Zhenbao's past glory!The pure power of light spread from the top of the temple, wave after wave, washing away the filth of the entire city.

If anyone approaches there, they will find that it has become the center of a storm vortex.

Under the watchful eyes of millions of people in the capital of the temple, a near-circular light array slowly opened up at the spire of the top of the temple!The light array gradually grew larger, and the lines in it were complicated and gorgeous, and the brilliance flowed, making people unable to take their eyes off it.Even in the daytime, the light emitted by the light array is clearly discernible.

The light array opened up, floated up, and rose to the top of the temple.It rotates slowly, and then stands up slowly. The lines in the formation slowly flow, or distance apart or stick together, gradually forming a new pattern.

"The door!" someone shouted through the crowd, "that's a door!"

As if to confirm his words, the gate made of light suddenly changed its appearance, from a spot of light to a real gate.It's huge, yet light.It was suspended above the top of the temple, shining with golden brilliance, and then little by little, a gap was exposed from the middle.

The crowd was commotion: "The door is open!"

There was a roaring dragon cry in the sky, and the white bone dragon soared into the sky and flew towards the door.Its momentum was like a rainbow, and the sound of dragons exploded like thunder, but the door was still floating there, unwavering, and slowly opened.

The bone dragon circled around the door twice, and the roar of the dragon made people's hearts jump out of their throats.The door gradually opened to the maximum in its circle, and people could even see the other side of the door.

There is nothing beyond the door.

It is like a single door, standing there.In front of it is the sky, behind it is still the sky, there is no difference.

Ow—

The bone dragon flew right in front of the door, flapped its wings twice, then folded its wings suddenly, and rushed towards the door!

"It's going to go through!"

The white figure was as fast as lightning, and plunged into the door in an instant... and then reached the other side of the door in an instant.

"...the dragon is still there?!" People were surprised, "Is that door just an empty square frame?"

The bone dragon also seemed very strange, it turned its head to look, and then the door turned into a light spot in the eyes of it and everyone, and suddenly disappeared.

Disappeared without a trace, as if what people just saw with their own eyes was just an illusion.

Ow-! ! !

The bone dragon suddenly let out another long cry, and then it no longer landed on the top of the temple or the top of the mountain next to it, and flew towards the distance.

It will never come back.

In less than an hour, the former Patriarch Vagcheno, who was pure white, rushed to the top of the tower on the top of the temple, followed by the guards brought by him.

He unlocked the magic circle at the door of the room, pushed the door open and entered.

The curtain has already been blown open, and the distant scenery is unobstructed.The treasure is still on its golden throne, the white light is gently surging, but it is no longer intense.

A chair with a red velvet cushion fell against the wall, but otherwise, the floor was clean and there was no trace of anything.

No one is empty.
