[Honor of Kings] Bai Liang's Short Story Collection

The Fourteenth of the White Moon

At that time, Li Bai didn't quite understand what that look meant.

He only felt a certain astringency in his heart, scratching him absent-mindedly.He couldn't help speeding up his pace, walking further and further, Zhuge Liang's figure finally disappeared at the end of the woods.

Li Bai closed his eyes, and then opened them again. There was a faint blue light in the bottom of his eyes, pointing to the ancient secret realm rich in aura in the distance.

That was his journey.

His future is programmed at the moment of birth, only guided by his consciousness.In any case, the matter of the little fiancée was out of his plans and considerations, together with the sour feeling in his unfamiliar heart, he was soon forced to suppress it and forget it in the depths of the sea of ​​memory.

In less than half a month, the Eternal Secret Realm used for inheritance was pierced by a shadow sword.The spiritual energy gushing out from the mountains and rivers swept across the entire secret realm in an instant, but was swallowed up in an instant.

In just one breath, the energy-deprived mountain guard array was shattered by the rioting aura, which directly caused turmoil in the three rivers, and the news quickly spread throughout the Xiuxian Continent.

Such drastic changes in the past were all caused by the big devil who had been sealed or suppressed for hundreds of years rushed out of the barrier and greedily seized the spiritual energy.But this time, the hundred families of Xianmen who were ready for the big battle did not wait for any demon to declare war, and sent wave after wave of troops, most of them returned without success, without any trace of magic energy.

It was quiet everywhere, and the people only knew that a rare earthquake had occurred, but it was too far away from them, so they couldn't see any impact, it just added a bit of talk to their daily life.

The chief culprit who destroyed the secret realm only plundered spiritual energy and rare spiritual herbs, and did not harm any monks. It really doesn't look like a demon cultivator, with an evil style.If it was just someone who made a fortune silently, practiced hard in a secret realm, and broke through the realm secretly, then it would not have caused such a big commotion and attracted the attention of the fairy sects across the continent.

So some people guessed, could it be that a peerless genius suddenly appeared and got a chance by mistake?

Everyone was secretly startled, that was an ancient secret realm, with spiritual energy accumulated for tens of thousands of years!

The Eternal Secret Realm is automatically opened every five years, and all monks with a Nascent Soul cultivation base can benefit from the experience in the secret realm.But now, a treasure that was supposed to be endless was crushed by this unknown genius, taking away all the spiritual energy... It's so terrifying!

If such talents can be used for their own use, everyone will be happy, but if they are enemies...

Li Bai gradually adapted to this new body.

The original mortal body is too fragile to bear so much spiritual energy.But Star Era's technology withstood the fatal blow for him, and accommodated the aura rushing from top to bottom.The powerful spiritual flow pierced through the blocked bone marrow, and was finally refined by him in the body. After complex adjustment and simulation in the chip, a new body of nanomaterials was restored bit by bit, covering the skin of flesh and blood with a solid barrier.

Human monks have to go through such a process of washing their marrow and refining their bodies when they enter the Golden Core Breakthrough Realm. By the time they reach the stage of transforming spirits and refining emptiness, they have basically completely discarded their mortal bodies.

In a sense, Li Bai's use of spiritual energy to repair his own functions is also the same goal.

However, because of forging his body, he stayed in place for too long, even though he was still found by the monks who came all the way.

Cultivating immortals may be the romance in the bones of the Blue Stars.Even in the future thousands of years later, people still retain the written records handed down from the past, and they are full of longing for the primitive ancient times.

But Li Bai understood from the moment he woke up that this is a cruel world, which also obeys the law of the jungle in nature.

Cultivating immortals is to go against the sky, respect the realm and strength, and the winner is the king.In the orthodox immortal sect, rules are generally valued, but outside, casual cultivators and demon cultivators are rampant, killing people and seizing treasures, and plundering opportunities emerge in endlessly-even inside the sect, it is not uncommon for monks to entrap fellow sects out of jealousy, which is enough to show their aptitude Variability with personality.

Someone was approaching from outside the cave, so Li Bai picked up the Shadow Shadow Sword and walked out slowly.

A powerful murderous aura spread out in front of him, and before he could make a sound, several spells struck him like lightning.Li Bai dodged sideways, and the sword in his hand greeted him.

This battle has just begun, and it has come to an end.

There are ravines all over the cave, which are the traces that can only be easily left by advanced spells. The realm of the visitor is far above the Jindan stage, and he is extremely vicious, and he has long since put aside the most basic morals.In front of the Shuying Sword, he was vulnerable to the powerful spell protection array.

The opponent stared in horror at the humanoid weapon that came out of the cave, and the incantation uttered in vain swept away the spiritual energy in his body, and was absorbed by the opponent's sword in a blink of an eye.

How did you do it? !

what--

The screams echoed in the valley, disturbing countless sound transmission cranes.Li Bai looked at the black shadow passing by in the distant sky, and soon more people would follow him.He shook off the spirit pouch of the unlucky monk in twos and then left with the sword box on his back.

……

Three years passed in a flash.

The pursuers sent by the enemy, the greedy casual cultivators... Li Bai sent them down to Huangquan one by one with his Shadow Sword, and calmly accepted their relics as energy supplements.

In order to maintain the body's operation, his demand for absorbing spiritual energy is also increasing. Everywhere he goes, he mercilessly pries open the small worlds hidden in the mustard space, and soon spreads the word "secret killer" in the world of cultivating immortals. " title.

The monks can't absorb spiritual energy without restraint, they need to practice and improve themselves down-to-earth, but the Shadow Shadow Sword doesn't have to be so troublesome.The chip embedded in his conscious body is equivalent to a super-performance optical brain, and his body is the carrier, and the tangible spiritual energy will be absorbed when it enters the body, just like a glutton that can devour spiritual energy in a bottomless pit.

As long as there is enough energy... perhaps, he can reopen the gate of time and space and return to the future he should have gone to.

Fortunately, the spiritual energy in the world is so vast that it will not be drained by him alone, and he does not need to have a psychological burden for this era.

Soon, this world has no rivals for him.

Without opponents, naturally there will be no enemies.There will be no more constant troubles, no one dares to challenge him, sneak up on him - he can sit back and check his recovery progress with peace of mind.

It didn't go as smoothly as he imagined.

The monks in the tribulation period need to go through the thunder cloud calamity before they can ascend. Perhaps it is for the same reason. When Li Bai felt that the energy was about to be sufficient, he also vaguely realized that he had encountered a bottleneck.

It was like an invisible hand, firmly pinching his conscious body, the spiritual energy swallowed could not be transformed, and soon released with his breath.

He needs to find a breakthrough.

At this time, Li Bai finally decided to slow down, even stop, and look back at the world carefully.

Once he lost his focus, his past figure quietly reappeared.

During these three years, Li Bai occasionally dreamed of Zhuge Liang.

Perhaps it was because of the thoughts that remained in the young man's heart. Whenever he thought of him, Li Bai could remember his clear face when he closed his eyes, and his heart would beat faster.This is very strange. To him, Zhuge Liang should have been just a symbol in his memory, and the actual time they spent together was less than half an hour...

At that time, he forced himself to divert his attention, took the sword to challenge the big devil, and got into a hard fight.

Of course, Li Bai still won, but he was also pierced by the strange devilish energy, leaving deep wounds.He plunged headlong into the ice pond at the source of the three rivers, and stayed there for three full months before recovering.

Shuyingjian doesn't feel pain, but Li Bai does.

He lay at the bottom of the icy pool, feeling the chill on the surface of his skin, taking away the corrupted blood and flesh and blood.

The world was too quiet, his mind was completely blank, and he let go of thinking...

Where would his little fiancée be at this time?

This idea popped up suddenly, which made Li Bai startled.He quickly found a reason for himself, he hadn't been injured in a long time, but the past of this body was often injured.In the memory he inherited, when the young Li Bai was lying on the bed dying, he was always neglected, and no one cared about him. Only his fiancée would bring herbs to heal his wounds.

But after all, it belonged to the memory of that boy in the past, Li Bai couldn't help feeling a little distressed.

Let him have the cheek to inherit everything from "Li Bai", fulfill the marriage contract and inherit his Taoist companion... Jian has no shame, but he still feels that he can't do it.

But now, after much deliberation, he realized that the breaking point might be this marriage contract.

For a monk to ascend to leave the realm of cultivating immortals, he needs to cut off the love in the world and let go of his emotions and desires.And he also wants to leave the world of cultivating immortals, the marriage contract carried by this body may be an obstacle.

Li Bai plucked up the courage to go back to the old fairy gate and inquire about Zhuge Liang's whereabouts.

He felt anxious, and he didn't know why he felt uneasy.

During the three years of walking outside, he didn't hear any news about Zhuge Liang.This did not alleviate his concern, but made the sad look in his parting eyes more deeply imprinted in his mind. In the dead of night, an unknown emotion emerged from his heart, making him anxious and tossing and turning.

Shuying Sword has many enemies, he comforted himself, the world only knows Shuying Sword, not Li Bai.Zhuge Liang has nothing to do with him, so he will not be implicated.No news from him just happened to mean that everything was fine.

But the Great Elder was silent for a long time and sighed deeply.

He recognized the disciple who disappeared three years ago. Looking at the tall and handsome young man with unfathomable cultivation and carrying the Shadow Shadow Sword, which everyone in the world of cultivating immortals has heard of, he feels very complicated.

"He...isn't here anymore." The Great Elder said slowly, with a solemn expression, "You didn't come back with him that day, everyone thought you died at the hands of monsters."

He fixed his eyes on Li Bai, but he couldn't find the slightest expression change on his face, he could only feel the coercion subconsciously pervading the air, making the whole cave slightly vibrate.

The same group of disciples who went down the mountain to practice died tragically. Among those who entered the forest, only Zhuge Liang survived and was unscathed.

Although there are some negligence of the senior brothers who lead the team, but it has to be doubted...

The elders of Xianmen will not doubt their disciples because of groundless grounds, but the aristocratic family who came to Xianmen has already lost their beloved son, and they will only feel jealous towards the only survivor: Why are you the only one alive? down?

The power of more than a dozen aristocratic families is difficult for a small sect to contend with. They joined forces to force the master to hand over Zhuge Liang, and asked him to interrogate the Dao of Heaven under the Questioning Heart Stone to prove his innocence.

When the elder said this, he felt that the aura in the cave seemed to be frozen by frost.

Li Bai's blue eyes became brighter, but they seemed distant and empty, and his voice was emotionless: "And then? What did you do to him?"

The elder closed his eyes slightly.

Of course they wanted to protect Zhuge Liang, but at that time the school was besieged, but Zhuge Liang took the initiative to stand up.

He withstood the torture of the Heavenly Dao with the third-level cultivation base of Jindan, no different from accepting the Thunder Cloud Tribulation in advance. His thin body was already crumbling, but he still supported his back straight, blocking the interrogation of the aristocratic family.

He said that since it was an experience, he should have lived and died with fellow Taoists, but now he is left alone, so it is hard for him to be ashamed of his elders.

He is willing to ask himself to be a sacrifice to Tianshan, to suppress the ancient dragon god, and to pray for the dead fellow Taoists.

In this way, the anger of the aristocratic family was calmed down.

Li Bai listened, but felt struck by lightning.

He remembered that Zhuge Liang tried his best to persuade him to leave at that time, because he wanted to take responsibility alone.He had already decided to sacrifice himself...

He was clearly just a sword, but for the first time he felt such a severe pain in his heart, as if he had been torn apart and stepped on the ground, his mind was empty and there was only one thought left.

He is going to save him!
