Chapter 172 The Secret of the Heavenly Punishment Chain

Xiaobai wakes up.

My whole body feels warm, as if I'm soaking in warm water.

She looked inward.

His cultivation level...has actually jumped five levels?

From the early stage of semi-saint, he directly soared to the late stage of semi-saint

His spiritual energy was full, his sea of ​​consciousness was clear, and all the previous fatigue was swept away.

"woke up?"

A gentle and low voice sounded, with a lazy smile.

Jing Gan appeared beside her at some point and was looking at her with interest.

Only then did Xiaobai feel that he seemed to be missing something?

She subconsciously touched her back, where there used to be a particularly important spiritual bone.

"My bones." Xiaobai exclaimed.

Jing Gan chuckled: "Don't panic, Xiaobai."

"It's actually a good thing that your spirit bone was taken away."

"Good news?" Xiaobai tilted his head, with a look that said "Are you kidding me?"

"Well," Jing Gan explained, "everything in the world will be lost if it is too full, and the strongest will be easily broken."

"Your divine body in your previous life was too perfect, which actually became a flaw."

"Now that you are missing a bone, the balance of yin and yang is the most suitable 'perfection' for your current state, just like the phoenix nirvana, broken and then reborn."

Xiaobai blinked his big eyes, seeming to understand but not quite.

"It's better if it's missing? What kind of weird logic is this?"

However, she felt it and it seemed that her body was more coordinated and light than ever before.

"Okay, I'll believe you for now." She muttered softly.

At this time, Chi Xiao, with a weak breath but a firm look in his eyes, walked over.

He looked at Xiaobai, his eyes filled with unremovable sadness and respect.

"My young master, you... are finally back."

Chi Xiao began to tell the story of the long forgotten past.

After the death of the goddess, the world of gods was in chaos and people were in panic.

"Many of the races that depended on you either chose to betray you or fled in panic, fearing that they would be implicated."

"We, the Suzaku clan, were delayed in forging the divine weapon for you because we followed the final instructions of the Heaven."

"As a result, we were caught by those people and our entire clan was captured and imprisoned here. We were exposed to the cold air day and night and were forced to tell you about your whereabouts and the secret of the artifact."

Chi Xiao's voice was filled with deep hatred.

Xiaobai's face was tense and his fists were clenched tightly.

Betrayal...escape.

It turns out that not all the partners she once trusted were trustworthy.

"Uncle Chixiao," Xiaobai's voice trembled slightly, "Now..."

Chi Xiao shook his head: "Not yet."

"The divine pillar of the upper third heaven is broken. We cannot gather our strength to fight back immediately."

"However, once my clansmen and I have recovered, we can try to recast the sacred pillar."

"No hurry," Xiaobai interrupted immediately, his tone full of unquestionable firmness, "The most important thing now is that you, the Suzaku clan, take good care of your injuries."

"Leave the rest to me."

Her small body exudes a reassuring power.

Just then, two hurried figures rushed over.

They are the third senior brother Nangong Wentian and the fifth senior brother Lin Jingxuan.

When Nangong Wentian saw Xiaobai, he first breathed a sigh of relief, but then his face turned stern and he walked up to her angrily.

"Xiao, Bai." He spoke almost word by word.

"You still remember to come back?"

"How dare you break into this kind of hellhole by yourself? You turned a deaf ear to your senior brother's words, didn't you? Without Second Senior Brother here, there's no one to control you.

You can do whatever you want, but why did you take the risk alone? You didn't tell me how dangerous the situation was. If I had arrived a step later, did you know that you and the Suzaku clan would have been killed by the Weapon Refining Pavilion? "

“From now on, you are not allowed to leave my sight without my permission.” Nangong Wentian started the “old father” roaring mode.

Xiao Bai shrank his neck and stuck out his tongue: "I know, Third Brother is the best, don't be angry."

But I was muttering in my heart: Humph, wait until I recover my divine power, and then we’ll see who will take care of who.

"Okay, okay, Third Brother, our little sister just woke up." Lin Jingxuan quickly tried to smooth things over.

There was a hint of joy on his face, but also mixed with worry.

"Junior Sister, there is good news, but it's not all good news."

"I have found out that there is a clue about some of the disciples and elders of our Qingling Sect who ascended to heaven and were lost."

"They did come to the upper realm, but in order to survive, they temporarily joined several sects here."

"It may take some time and effort to get them out."

"As for the other brothers and sisters..." Lin Jingxuan shook his head, "No news yet."

The atmosphere was a little heavy for a moment.

Xiaobai patted Nangong Wentian's arm and looked at Lin Jingxuan again.

"It's okay, Third Brother, Fifth Brother, don't panic."

"At least now we know someone is still alive and we know what to do next."

"Get the people we found out first, and we'll look for the others slowly."

She had clear thoughts and instantly calmed everyone's emotions.

Chi Xiao looked at the scene in front of him, and a hint of relief flashed in his eyes.

He took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind.

He carefully took out something from his arms, or rather, from a special space magic weapon.

It was a chain that looked ordinary, even a little dull.

The material is neither gold nor iron. It feels cold to the touch, but there is a slight burning sensation.

There seemed to be nine extremely obscure rune marks on the chain.

"Young master, this is the [Chain of Heavenly Punishment]." Chi Xiao said solemnly.

"Back then, our Suzaku clan received instructions from Heaven to forge the divine sword [Fen Tian] for you, and at the same time, secretly forge this chain."

"This chain is of great importance. It is the key to your fight against certain entities."

Xiaobai took the chain curiously.

"Against what?"

Chi Xiao's eyes were complicated: "The power to fight against the laws of heaven and earth."

He paused and said something shocking: "Young Master, the material of this chain comes from the fragments of the [Chaos Phoenix Armor] in your previous life."

Xiaobai was shocked, and countless images seemed to flash through his mind, too fast to catch.

That was the armor she once wore to conquer the world, armor formed by the energy of heaven and earth.

Just like the Chaos Flute and the armor worn before, they are all your own things, but they are different from your natal sword and natal armor.

"This chain has nine seals in total," Chi Xiao continued to explain, "Every time you unlock one, you can recover a portion of your previous life's Chaos Divine Power."

"And..." Chi Xiao lowered his voice even lower, carrying a heavy warning.

"Young Master, remember, whether it is the so-called laws of heaven and earth or the high and mighty Way of Heaven, those forces collectively named to control balance may not necessarily be believed in all of them."

"Not necessarily a friend."

"Maybe even an enemy."

Chi Xiao sighed: "Our Suzaku clan has passed down a faint power of divination from generation to generation."

"Although it is extremely rare, it is difficult to find a true prophet in ten thousand years."

"But our ancestor saw your fall and reincarnation a long time ago."

"That's why our clan was targeted and hunted down."

"Because fate has already been written, we know secrets that we should not know."

"But, young master..." Chi Xiao's eyes suddenly became bright and hot.

"You are different."

"As long as the goddess can reincarnate and return, then all the inherent destinies will have the possibility of being rewritten."

"Your return is the biggest change and the hope that will break all the shackles."

Xiaobai tightly grasped the [Chain of Heavenly Punishment] in his hand.

The cold touch seemed to ignite a fire deep in her soul.

Fragments of armor from the past life, the power of chaos, the possible enemy of Heaven, and the prophesied return.

There was too much information, but there was no confusion on her little face, only an increasingly determined look.

"I see."

"Uncle Chi Xiao, thank you."

"Thank you too for keeping these secrets and waiting for my return."

She raised her head and looked into the distance, as if she could penetrate layers of space.

"Don't worry, I will take it back personally. "

"I will make them pay double what they owe me."

"The upper realm, huh? I, Nangong Xiaobai... now that I'm here, I have to make some noise to have fun."

The little cute baby, at this moment, is full of aura, and has a hint of the demeanor of a goddess in her previous life who looked down on the world.

Xiaobai thought about it and concluded that, apart from the one who was personally conferred the title of Zhixu, which was the true Heavenly Way, the others were unknown.

Xiaobai didn't know that what she thought was right, because Zhixu was now in the Third Heaven, looking at the former God's Realm in ruins, and began to rebuild it with great effort.

“Hahahaha, do you think that by imprisoning me you can restrain some of her power? I am the Heavenly Dao appointed by her herself, and you can’t change that.” Zhixu laughed as he explored this once glorious realm of God.
