Chapter 124: Unwilling
Duan Qing raised his head and looked at the twelve runes above his head, and his heart was shocked. Is this thing really so powerful? This Xue Wanyun didn't even have the courage to resist, and said such depressing words!
He is not willing to give in! He had just broken through the mortal realm, but he was unwilling to die here in such an unexplained way.
"Then...is there no possibility of escape?" Duan Qing asked unwillingly.
Xue Wanyun sat paralyzed on the ground, extremely depressed and desperate. He took out a pot of wine and drank it. After drinking, he stared blankly at the runes above his head and murmured.
"Escape! How to escape? The runes formed by the seal nodes have the ability to absorb spiritual energy, and trespassing can only provide them with spiritual power to help them accelerate their evolution!"
Duan Qing recalled how he touched the runes in the water before and was paralyzed by the absorbed spiritual power and could not move. He couldn't help but feel a little desperate. These ghost runes did have this effect. Could it be that they were just waiting to die?
Looking at the runes all over the sky, he suddenly thought of something and immediately said to Xue Wanyun as if he was grasping a life-saving straw.
"Except for the twelve runes in the center, the rest of the runes are dimmed. Maybe these runes are not that powerful!"
Xue Wanyun sneered, intending to ridicule Duan Qing for being dizzy, but when he glanced at the runes above his head, it seemed that it was exactly what Duan Qing said. Except for the twelve runes in the center, the other countless runes were indeed darker than before, but She had just been so absorbed in the twelve power-destroying runes that she didn't notice this.
Xue Wanyun put away the wine, stood up from the ground and stared at the runes above her head for a moment, then thoughtfully walked to the water's edge and stared at the runes in the water.
Duan Qing looked at Xue Wanyun by the water in the distance. He was surprised by its speed and at the same time felt that he might have discovered something, so he quickly ran behind him and tried to ask.
"Has your Majesty found anything?"
Xue Wanyun turned a deaf ear and looked away from the water, then raised his head to look at the formation of twelve runes above his head, and finally spoke.
"No one is in charge of the sealing node. The spiritual energy here can never support the consumption of evolution. The evolution of destruction will definitely consume its origin. When the destruction is achieved, the difficulties will most likely be broken. Maybe... there is a glimmer of hope!"
When she said this, Xue Wanyun's eyes were always staring at the twelve formations above her head, as if she wanted to get more information from them to support her speculation.
Duan Qing half-understood what Xue Wanyun said, but had no time to think about it. The glimmer of hope in his words cheered him up, but what Xue Wanyun said next made him feel like he had fallen into an ice cellar.
Then Xue Wanyun's eyes retracted from the twelve runes above her head and turned to look at the runes in the water.
"Even so, it's impossible to escape the power of the God of Destruction!"
Duan Qing stood stunned on the spot after hearing this, and then felt a strong sense of unwillingness in his heart. He pointed at the runes in the water and asked Xue Wanyun loudly.
"According to what you said, the trapped ghost rune might be broken! Can't you escape immediately after that?"
Xue Wanyun didn't care about Duan Qing's poor words. He glanced at Duan Qing with a complicated expression, and then shook his head gently. "No matter how fast you and I are, we can't move faster than the power of God that reduces the power of destruction caused by the sealing node!"
Duan Qing stared at Xue Wanyun, his eyes very unhappy.
"Since you are facing death, why are you talking about a chance of survival?"
Xue Wanyun raised his head and looked at the twelve runes again, a look of determination flashed in his eyes. "If I can withstand the power of destruction for a moment, maybe... I can escape from this place!"
Duan Qing's eyes brightened, but then dimmed quickly. He looked at Xue Wanyun and was speechless for a moment.
If this method is really somewhat certain, Xue Wanyun will not just say that it is a glimmer of hope. Judging from his demeanor, the destruction of this seal node must be extremely terrifying. It is estimated that even he himself may not be sure of escape. Not to mention taking him with you as a dragster. Even though he has broken through to the mortal realm, compared with Xue Wanyun, who is the envoy of Middle-earth, it is a world of difference.
Although he understands that his hope of escape is extremely low, Duan Qing is not the one to sit back and wait for death. The idiot is still waiting for him on Yanfeng!
"My fate is up to me. Even if God tells me to die, I will still fight!" Duan Qing's eyes gradually became stubborn as he looked at Xue Wanyun.
Xue Wanyun turned her head and looked at Duan Qing, slightly surprised. She couldn't figure out what kind of confidence allowed this person to say such arrogant words.
But looking at Duan Qing's unyielding eyes and desire for survival, she suddenly understood.
Although she knew clearly in her heart that when the seal node evolved into a annihilation force, it was the only chance to escape, but deep down in her heart she still held out hope that the master would come to rescue her. As a result, she did not dare to let go. The reason was only because of her past too much. I relied on Master and never went into danger alone.
But at this time, from Duan Qing's eyes, she saw stubbornness, unyielding, and a hint of helplessness, but she did not see the slightest fear. She knew that Duan Qing was in a situation where he couldn't rely on anyone. Whether he could escape or not was all up to him. This made him have to fight and fight. This was where the helplessness lay. If he wanted to live, There is no room for fear.
And the situation she is facing now is the same as Duan Qing's. She is also helpless. When she has no choice, she does the helpless thing. A person whose cultivation level is far inferior to her has the courage to fight. Why doesn't she dare to put her hope in it? It is almost impossible for the master to arrive before the evolution of the destruction is completed!
After thinking about this, Xue Wanyun suddenly felt much more relaxed and nodded to Duan Qing.
"Then let's have a fight!" After saying that, he sat cross-legged on the ground, raised his head and stared at the twelve runes above attentively.
Duan Qing was slightly stunned, this Xue Wanyun was really informal, but he also understood that he was probably observing the twelve runes to predict when the destruction would be completed.
At the moment, he had no interest in anything else, so he also walked to Xue Wanyun and sat down, observing the twelve runes with her. However, he knew nothing about it. After looking at them, he felt that there was no change, so he lay down, supported the back of his head with both hands, and closed his eyes to rest.
Xue Wanyun was focused and stared at the runes above for a long time. In her heart, she roughly calculated when the extinction trend would be completed. The result she got was not much different from what she had expected before. In two days, the extinction trend would be completely evolved.
"Does the envoy have a result?" At this time, Duan Qing's lazy voice came from the side, as if he had just woken up.
Xue Wanyun slightly turned her head and glanced at Duan Qing, who still had his eyes closed, without hiding anything.
"Two days later."
Duan Qing was not surprised by this answer, and even felt very calm. In fact, even if Xue Wanyun said that the extinction trend would be completed in the next moment, he would face the reality. After all, what was coming would come.
"What kind of place is Middle-earth?" Duan Qing suddenly became interested in the Middle-earth where Xue Wanyun came from, perhaps with only two days left in his life.
He first heard the word Middle-earth from his uncle Wang, and later he heard fragmentary descriptions of Middle-earth from other people, but none of them were very detailed. Thinking that Xue Wanyun came from Middle-earth, he wanted to hear what Middle-earth was like as described by the people of Middle-earth.
