Chapter 246: The truth is, live to the death!
Chapter 246 The truth of the matter, live to the death!
The voice of the ancient phoenix was faintly dispersed in this empty stone room, as if the tide was rising.
And that sentence made everyone there stunned.
Xiaojiu was stunned for a while, then looked at the girl in the red dress, a little dazed: "Mother, what does that sentence mean?"
In the soft and glutinous voice, there was a hint of panic at this moment.
"Xiao Jiu, you go back first." Hearing this, Qing Yunge's voice suddenly sank, "I'll call you out in a while."
Xiaojiu opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it.
It nodded, and then obediently returned to the Seven Profound Space.
Before left, it did not forget to look back at the huge ancient phoenix.
There was a trace of daze and a trace of throbbing in his eyes.
Something from the depths of the soul is slowly brewing at this moment.
When only the ancient phoenix and her were left in the stone room, Qing Yunge slowly raised her head.
Very rare, she saw a trace of unease in the golden pupil of the ancient phoenix.
"You..." Qing Yunge considered it for a while, and then said, "Who is it?"
"If you're asking my name, I can tell you." The ancient phoenix bowed his head slightly, his voice as gentle as ever, "My name is Lingyan."
At this moment, Lingyan restrained the flames around him, and his body shrunk slightly.
"No, what I want to ask is..." Qing Yunge didn't relax her vigilance because of Lingyan's initiative, she stared at it and asked word by word, "You and Xiao Jiu, What's the matter?"
Hearing this, a light streamer flashed across Lingyan's pupils, and it murmured softly, "So it's called Xiaojiu, what a nice name..."
After finished speaking, its voice lowered a little: "Unfortunately, I also really want to name it."
Qing Yunge was silent, thinking about the current matter rapidly in his mind.
And Lingyan seemed to see what she was thinking, and then said: "I know, you are not from this era."
Qing Yunge raised his head abruptly, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then the killing intent also exploded in an instant.
Feng Lijian also seemed to sense the call of the master, and shivered suddenly.
Lingyan didn't care at all about the magic weapon in the hands of the person in front of her that could shake the world, she whispered, "Because before you came, someone told me that one day in the future, there will be a person who will cross the distance of time and bring him with him. With a chaotic spirit tool, I came to Tianshen Mountain."
"And the first time I saw you, I knew that this person was you."
The chill in Qing Yunge's eyes grew even stronger, but her cherry lips twitched slightly: "I don't have a Chaos Spirit Tool."
It is true that the intact Fengli Sword is a Chaos-level weapon, but now the Fengli Sword in her hand is just an imperial spirit weapon.
How can this ancient phoenix be sure that she is the person it said.
And more importantly, who told it that it would meet her?
"But you are the one I'm waiting for." Ling Yan was unexpectedly stubborn, and it repeated, "I understand very well."
"Who told you that I would come here?" Qing Yunge raised her eyes slightly, and there was still frost between her eyes.
Hearing this sentence, Lingyan shook his head: "I don't know who that person is, nor is it the flame monarch I once served."
Lord of Flames!
Qing Yunge's pupils shrank suddenly: "You are that... the nine-star monarch beast who guards the Soul Blade?!"
"As you can see, yes." Lingyan laughed, with a low laugh, "After the nine monarchs left 20,000 years ago, I and the other eight nine-star great monarch beasts were responsible for guarding the nine gods. "
"At that time, the Phoenix family was one of the most powerful profound beast races in the world."
"What happened later?" Qing Yunge felt a trace of sadness in Lingyan's pupils, and her heart trembled slightly.
In the Xuanling Realm, she learned from Suzaku that the Phoenix family had all perished because of certain things.
Xiaojiu is the last undead bird in this world.
And Lingyan is a nine-star great monarch beast, what is it, even this nine-star great monarch beast has inevitably come to the end of death?
"Our phoenix family is actually responsible for protecting human beings." Lingyan said quietly, "But unlike the four adults, we are doing this in secret."
Qing Yunge nodded silently.
The four adults mentioned by Lingyan should be the guardian beasts of the four spirits.
"And three thousand years after the nine monarchs left, a space crack appeared in the Chaos Continent." Lingyan raised her head slightly, her voice was a little awkward, as if she was unwilling to recall the painful past, "From the space crack, a kind of Weird creature, but until now, I didn't know what that creature was."
"It's a coincidence that the place where the space crack appears is the habitat of our phoenix family."
"At that time, in order to protect the Soul Sword, I was not in the Chaos Continent."
"That kind of creature is threatening, my people, all sacrificed in order to block that space crack."
Having said this, Lingyan's voice was slightly lowered: "But fortunately, they completely blocked that creature from the crack in space."
"What about Suzaku and the others?" Qing Yunge's eyebrows twitched, "Didn't they come at that time?"
"It's too late." Lingyan shook his head, "Although I don't know what that creature is, if they are allowed to enter the Chaos Continent through the cracks in space, the consequences will be disastrous."
"By the time the four adults arrive, the cracks will be filled with their lives."
The phoenix is indeed immortal, but once they die on their own, there is no possibility of resurrection.
"But..." Qing Yunge raised her eyes slightly, "If you are the nine-star monarch beast in charge of guarding the Soul Blade, you cannot leave the Raging Flame Mountains, then why are you here?"
Lingyan was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "That's because... I'm waiting for you."
"Wait for me?" Qing Yunge said calmly, "What's the use of waiting for me?"
She was now vaguely certain that someone set out to design this scene.
The so-called college competition is just a pretense.
But who is someone with such strength?
"With the help of that person, I forcibly cut off contact with the Soul Sword." Ling Yan sighed softly, "Then I left the Flame Mountains and came here to wait for you one day."
"But according to that person, to send you here, a medium is needed."
Qing Yunge's expression changed suddenly: "You mean..."
"That's right, it's the child who has my blood." Lingyan smiled at this moment, her laughter was mellow and low, "Because I know that after I cut off contact with Liehundao, my life will not be long. , if you can't wait for you, the phoenix family... will really perish."
"You're... Xiao Jiu's father?" Qing Yunge took a breath, "But as you said, you won't live long, and I'm from fifteen thousand years later, and Xiao Jiu's age is not as old as ten thousand years. Long."
"This will involve some kind of forbidden mystery of the phoenix." Lingyan's golden eyes showed a hint of memory, "After I learned that my life was not long, I took advantage of the ancient blood in my body, And my beast pill..."
It flapped its wings and continued: "Then successfully created an egg, and in that egg, my child was conceived."
Qing Yunge's eyes sank a little.
She only now understands why Xiaojiu, as a phoenix, came out of the egg.
"I guess, you gave that egg to Suzaku?" Qing Yunge said softly, "And then Suzaku gave it to me."
"Yes." Lingyan nodded, "It took me more than two thousand years for this egg to survive independently."
"But because it was not born in flames, it needs very harsh conditions to hatch."
"For example...the ultimate fire."
Lingyan tilted her head slightly: "And Lord Suzaku is the best person to keep."
Qing Yunge lowered her eyebrows.
Now it seems that some things can be linked together, but the question is, is it too coincidental?
If Lingyan is waiting for her, then why would Suzaku know that Xiaojiu must be handed over to her in the future?
"Speak your purpose." Qing Yunge Shen Yin Hanhan, "If I guessed correctly, you should also have a key here."
"The key?" Lingyan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, "Oh yes, when it comes to the key, that person gave it to me."
said, it raised a paw and spread it out.
After a while, the shape of a key gradually emerged from the top of Lingyan's claws.
That key is not the slightest difference from what Qing Yunge got from Death God, except for the color.
She took a step forward, picked up the key, and just like the first time, the name of the key appeared in her mind - the Time Key.
But this time, there is no historical fragment.
"How many keys are there in total?" Qing Yunge frowned, "It shouldn't be two, right?"
If she got all the keys, she should have left the small world by now.
She wanted to understand one thing.
After all, that person still does not have the ability to reverse the real world and can only build a small world.
But even so, it was terrifying.
"Yes, there is also a key to space." Ling Yan's voice contained a hint of surprise, "After the lock formation is destroyed, the key to space will automatically appear."
"You don't have to worry about this, I will help you with the God Locking Formation."
"As long as you help me with one thing."
"Well, you said, if it's within my power." Qing Yunge nodded slightly, "But I can't change history."
"Today is the last day I live in this world." Lingyan nodded and said softly, "I want to ask you to bring my bones back, and then..."
There is a hint of nostalgia in its pupils: "Then give it to Xiao Jiu."
"Bone?" Qing Yunge touched her chin, "What's the use of your skeleton?"
"Actually, it's not very useful." Ling Yan said lightly, "Because my bones are only useful to the phoenix family, and can make ordinary phoenixes evolve into ancient phoenixes."
Qing Yunge: "…"
Is this useless?
Although there are only two more words "Ancient", it gives the impression that it is very tall.
"Although Xiaojiu is my bloodline, it does not inherit the profound power of the ancient phoenix." Lingyan smiled, "This is my request."
Without the bloodline of the ancient phoenix, Xiao Jiu will not live very long, because it is not a normally born phoenix.
Lingyan is absolutely not allowed, the phoenix family has truly perished like this.
As long as there is one phoenix left, then their family will definitely return to the peak in the future.
Unfortunately, with its origin of life, after creating that egg, it can only survive until now.
Lingyan is a little fortunate that that person can help it like this, even if it doesn't know who 'he' is.
"I promise you." Qing Yunge pondered for a moment before answering, "Do you still want to see Xiao Jiu?"
Hearing the words, Lingyan's expression was a little dazed, a struggle flashed across his pupils, and then he said, "No, that's fine, don't tell it anything."
"I can see that it is very attached to you, and I am sure that you will take good care of it."
Qing Yunge is clear.
Lingyan probably didn't want Xiaojiu to find her father with difficulty, so she would have to face the pain of life and death.
"Then... let's start!" Ling Yan's voice suddenly became sharp, as if she had made up her mind.
It suddenly raised up to the sky and squeaked loudly.
The next second, Lingyan's whole body ignited a raging fire.
The fire was so bright that the stinger could hardly open his eyes.
Even though Qing Yunge had the ultimate fire, the fire in front of her still made her feel a scorching heat.
This is the fire of life ignited by the source of all life with Lingyan, with its determination to die.
Irreversible, irreversible.
This kind of fire, even Lingyan himself, could not resist.
But three breaths, its originally beautiful and fragrant feathers have become charred black, but the fire is still burning, the more it burns.
Qing Yunge even heard Lingyan screaming in pain.
The fire was burning and the blood was dripping!
Shen Ran's bones were exposed, and some were quickly burned to black.
"Promise me, the bloodline of the ancient phoenix must be passed on." At this time, the only thing that could be seen was Lingyan's head, which opened its mouth slightly and said slowly, "Please... "
Before the last "le" was finished, the fire soared again, completely engulfing Lingyan.
Then, there was a dead silence.
Qing Yunge stared blankly at the pitch-black skeleton lying on the ground, and saw that the skeleton made a "stinging, stinging" sound in the fire, and finally turned into an oval jade.
Decided to die in one day, withered to ashes in an instant!
Lingyan, as the last ancient phoenix in this world, chose this ending without hesitation in order to allow the bloodline to continue.
Qing Yunge was silent.
Father love?
No, this is not fatherly love, but great love.
She stepped forward and held the oval jade in her hand.
And at the moment when the jade was picked up, there was a loud noise of "Boom Rumble—", and the entire Tianshen Mountain shook violently.
The tremor was so strong that cracks appeared on the ground.
No, it's not so much that Tianshenshan suddenly changed, it's better that this small world... collapsed.
At the same time, somewhere far away, someone seemed to feel something and slowly got up.
His expression kept changing, from joy for a while, dazed for a while, and then into a long sigh.
"History has finally changed." The man sighed softly, "It's not in vain for me to spend so much effort to set up such a game."
ll, his voice was a little darker: "Unfortunately, compared to 'her', the game I set is still not big enough."
"Yes." The man suddenly said, "Who in this world can compare to 'she'?"
"'She' is...a person who can even be used as a pawn."
…
"Shh—" a white light flashed, and when Qing Yunge opened her eyes, she had already returned to Mel State.
Not far away, are Leng Ye, Xiao Muchen, Shen Changjue and Wu Xiao.
They were obviously just coming out of the small world, and there was a trace of daze on their faces.
"What's going on?" Xiao Muchen patted his head vigorously, "Where are we?"
He remembered that he seemed to step on something, then he lost consciousness, and then… he didn't know anything.
Leng Ye's expression changed slightly: "We have already returned, this is Mel State, the residence of Siling College."
"What?" Xiao Muchen was dumbfounded, "Am I dreaming?"
How does he feel that he came back inexplicably without doing anything?
"It seems that Junior Sister succeeded." Leng Ye shook his head slightly, "I don't know the specifics."
The four of them wanted to go up and ask the girl in the red dress, but before they could stop it, they saw Qing Yunge walking in one direction with calm eyes.
"What's wrong with Yunge?" Xiao Muchen was confused, "Why is something wrong?"
"I don't know." Leng Ye sighed softly, "Let's go, we can't comfort the little junior sister anyway."
"Why can't we?" Xiao Muchen was puzzled.
Leng Ye didn't care about the off-line junior brother, he didn't answer, but walked towards his residence.
There is only that person in this world who can successfully comfort the younger sister.
Unfortunately, I don't know if he is in Mel State or not.
Rong Jinhuai was indeed not in Mel State, because he was stumped by something and was forced to stop in Zhaoyao City again.
And at this moment, his way was blocked by another person.
Peerless eyes narrowed slightly, Rong Jinhuai looked at the person in front of him and chuckled lightly.
"What exactly do you want to do?"
Well, I'm a little busy today, and Jiagen is on the 27th
On the 27th, there is a guarantee for one change, and then two more updates (although the monthly pass has not reached 300, I will add it to you in advance)
After all, it is not _(:з"∠)_
The 28th and 29th will have a total of four more changes (multiplying 2 is 8 more happy), but... It depends on whether you are active or not (╥╯^╰╥)
