Chapter 100: Ending (I) “Miao Miao, I can’t go back.”…
"Sister, just eat one bite."
I deserve to die.
When Lin Rui wrapped his arms around her body, the cold breath beside her ears made Mingyao tremble slightly.
She closed her eyes in despair.
Everything seemed like a dream, going around in circles and finally returning to the starting point.
It’s a pity that she didn’t have the soul nail this time.
"Lin Rui, I'm Mingyao. Like you, I traveled through time. We're from the same hometown. Do you remember?"
She tried her best to control her voice, suppress her fear, and reminded softly.
Lin Rui no longer looks like a human being.
Her body was like a dead branch with tangled roots, clinging to her in an extremely twisted posture.
The cold breath brushed across Mingyao's throbbing carotid artery.
It was as if he would rip Mingyao open without mercy in the next moment.
Hearing Mingyao's voice, Lin Rui paused briefly.
After a long stalemate, Mingyao saw that it seemed to be working, so he spoke softly again: "Lin Rui, do you still remember your name? Lin Rui."
"You said you would let me go, let me go back. We are now only one step away from success."
Mingyao tried to soften his voice, trying to buy himself a chance of survival.
Lin Ruipan loosened his grip on her hand.
Mingyao was delighted, thinking that there might be a turning point.
Unexpected events occurred.
Lin Rui's pale hands pinched her neck tightly, and the next moment, something sharp pierced into her flesh.
It hurt so much that physiological tears welled up in her eyes.
The extremely sharp pain prompted her to resist subconsciously. She punched and kicked desperately, trying to break free from Lin Rui, but the trace of immortal power that imprisoned her body became a shackle. No matter how she tried to struggle, she could only twitch slightly in the end.
At that moment, in the shadows, she seemed to be back in the ghost town, in that house where blood was pooling and corpses were scattered all over the ground.
She hid among the corpses, watching in horror as the twisted ghosts in the yard greedily devoured flesh and blood.
I subconsciously held my breath.
Her vision went dark for a while, and there was no trace of the ghost around her. She was at a loss and kept looking for the ghost.
Suddenly she glanced before her eyes and saw that the ghost was pressing her down and gnawing at her flesh.
He was startled and the immortal power in his body surged, and he subconsciously tried to expel the ghost.
But Mingyao had to endure it.
Her eyes gradually turned red.
After staying in the formation for several days, doing good deeds and reaping bad results, he was excluded and made difficult for in every way. He endured his emotions and did not use any of his spiritual power, just waiting for a chance to go home.
By now, she couldn't really tell whether this was another test of the formation or whether her death was really coming to an end in reality.
Life slowly fades away.
Mingyao could hardly raise his eyes.
The opportunity to choose slowly slipped through her fingers.
No, we agreed to only eat one bite. You are really untrustworthy, Mingyao complained silently in his heart. His eyelids gradually became heavy and drooped.
Consciousness gradually became blurred.
It was as if it had separated from the body, and it was heading to some crack in the world.
She only felt endless pain coming towards her.
"There are so many people from other worlds who have come here because of the formation. Do we have to find them one by one like searching for a needle in a haystack? Chu Miaomiao's seal can only last for two hundred years at most. It's not enough time at all."
There were intermittent sounds in my ears.
Mingyao was in a daze, not knowing how long he had been floating and where he had landed.
She only felt that her body, where she was temporarily resting, was moving uncontrollably forward, rolling and crawling.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me. I have a way to sense them. I'll help you find them."
The woman's voice poured out of her mouth one after another impatiently, panic-stricken and timid.
"you?"
"Yes, I can sense them. I'm the first alien to come here. I can help you. I'm useful. I'm very useful."
This time, the woman's voice was smoother. She raised her head and looked at the man who held the power of life and death in front of her.
Mingyao saw clearly what she looked like now from the man's eyes.
It's the first clear day.
Was she entering Chu Ji's dream? Or... her remaining memories?
Mingyao gradually woke up.
"You're a time traveler too, and so am I! Are you from the north? My best friend is also from the north. I miss her so much."
Just as Chu Ji had said, she could accurately sense the presence of other travelers. She also had a baby face, and her every frown and smile made her particularly pitiful, and her sweet talk made her invincible.
"Let's work together and try to find our way home."
The words she spoke were like arsenic wrapped in honey, stepping on the corpses of her companions and surviving again and again.
She looked coldly at her compatriots, who were tied up tightly in the ghost town by Xuan Hui and the black shadow's clones, and watched coldly as the immortal power slowly poured into their bodies.
Not everyone can withstand the infusion of immortal power.
One man's meat may be another man's poison.
For some people from other worlds, immortal power is like boiling oil. Forcing it in is just a matter of life and death.
She was afraid at first, but after so many deaths, she wasn't afraid anymore. What fellow countrymen? What kind of friendship did she have with them?
Blood was all over the floor, staining her dress red.
One unfamiliar face after another appeared in Mingyao's mind through Chuji's eyes.
Even if there were occasional rebels, they were no match for them.
Until a familiar face appeared - Lin Rui.
"Senior Sister, why are we entering the Ghost Town?" She was tricked here by Chu Ji, her eyes filled with confusion. "Why is Immortal Lord Xuan Hui...here too?"
Chu Ji ignored her. She just smiled at Xuan Xiu ingratiatingly and said, "Those before died too quickly. I thought it might be because their physical fitness couldn't keep up. This one has practiced in the Immortal Mountain, so he should be able to hold on a little longer."
"I hope so." Xuan Hui's words were concise and to the point. The chains stained with blood and flesh once again imprisoned a life.
After verifying countless lives, they have found some patterns -
The more willingly an alien from another world withdraws his spirit and soul and uses his body as a container for immortal power, the stronger the adaptability between the immortal power and the body will be. In other words, the longer he can last.
Chu Ji smiled soothingly. She placed her hand on Lin Rui's forehead, and the ethereal spiritual energy slowly penetrated into Lin Rui's body. "Don't be afraid, Junior Sister. As long as you can hold on for seven days and your body adapts to the immortal power, you can go home."
"Look, Senior Sister will accompany you too. This immortal power is rare. I found it with great difficulty. Junior Sister, please don't waste it."
"...Okay." Lin Rui's expression gradually became blurred, and he obediently stopped struggling.
One day, two days, three days...
Fortunately, her body was able to temporarily adapt to the presence of immortal power.
Unfortunately, she is still not the real destined person.
She was dying day by day.
"Senior Sister, can you go home tomorrow?"
"Yes."
"Senior Sister, can you go home tomorrow?"
"Yes."
…
She asked day by day.
Until the seventh day.
"Senior Sister, am I going to die?"
"Can... No, don't think too much."
But these words could no longer deceive Lin Rui.
In her last moments, she finally woke up and looked at her body that had been completely destroyed by the immortal power. She understood something.
Resentment and resentment grew in her heart: "Ran Chuji, you lied to me!"
A heavy resentment accumulated in her heart.
This attracted the attention of the black shadow clone: "She can actually use immortal power to transform into a ghost. Don't kill her, she has other uses."
Lin Rui "survived".
She became part of the "team."
"The bodies of these otherworldly beings are difficult to deal with. Dismembering or burying them isn't appropriate, as it will always lead to more karma. It's best to let her eat them."
The black shadow looked at Lin Rui, and the black energy in her hand flowed madly into Lin Rui's eye sockets and ears, suppressing her consciousness.
She became a demon.
A man-eating demon.
"You killed her." In his dark eyes, Chu Ji hid in front of the blood, looking at the shadow reflected in it, as if he could see Ming Yao through the fishy blood, "I am an accomplice, you are the reason."
"If you had shown up earlier, they wouldn't have died."
"Mingyao, you harmed them."
"We all have a miserable death."
"Why do you go back?"
A tear fell from my eye into the blood, and I couldn't tell whose it was.
Mingyao's vision suddenly became blurry, then after a flash of white light, it slowly came into focus again.
The key that I always wore on my chest was burning hot.
The pain became real again, and Mingyao's body felt weak, which was a sign of excessive blood loss.
She slid down involuntarily.
"Lin Rui, stop chewing, I'm really going to die." Ming Yao covered the wound, his voice slightly hoarse, "Please spare me."
She looked at the evil ghost in front of her, his mouth full of blood, his face ashen, his eyes without pupils.
Tears slowly accumulated in her eyes. She still remembered that not long ago, Lin Rui was still saying to her -
"They went through so much trouble to find you. How can we let them succeed? You must go back. Only when you go back will I be happy."
She also said—
"Don't burn incense for me. I don't like it. I have to go collect the bodies of the unfortunate people like me."
But now, Lin Rui has become that unconscious evil ghost again.
She actually thought about seeking justice for them, but she was selfish. Although she felt sad for their experience, she had never experienced it personally and had never really seen it. She only thought about it in her heart. What was more important was to get herself out of trouble first.
But now it’s different. Lin Rui can obviously regain her consciousness and leave, and she can stop getting involved in this matter.
But she was still plotted against and dragged into this.
There are so many people, exactly the same age, who died here quietly.
…
Mingyao cried more and more sadly, and her tears drowned all her emotions, except for a little anger, which became more and more obvious.
Why, she thought, why are they so unlucky?
She cried louder and louder, and became angrier and angrier.
As if frightened by her crying, Lin Rui stopped and stared at her crying.
Seeing her like this, Mingyao couldn't stop.
"It must be painful." She asked with sobs, but got no answer.
"It hurts so much." Mingyao covered his neck, which was bleeding from Lin Rui's bite, and asked himself, "It hurts so much."
In the formation, it hurts when you save someone with good intentions but get hit on the head and bleed. It hurts when you save the bad guy without knowing anything and get scolded...
Ever since entering the formation, he had been enduring and suppressing his anger, and it seemed that he had finally reached a bottleneck.
She picked up the opened magic weapon and pointed it at Lin Rui.
As if sensing something, Lin Rui did not resist and jumped in obediently.
Mingyao stood up shakily and left this "safe place" step by step.
The wound did not heal, blood stained half of her clothes red, and her hair was scattered.
By the time she reached the cave entrance, she was exhausted.
Before going in, she looked at the dawn of destiny.
If she could just endure for one more day, she would be able to go back.
It was a pity that, from the moment she entered the formation, that immortal voice had never thought of letting her go back. Ran Chuji was right. Even if she drained the immortal power from Miaomiao's body, she would not be able to go back.
She stepped inside.
The first thing I saw was Chu Miaomiao lying on the ground, dying.
She walked over slowly and hugged him.
The annoying dark shadow beside her ear was still talking, but she couldn't hear clearly.
And Xuanxiu, in the midst of the blood, keenly sensed that something was wrong with Mingyao.
She staggered towards him, and the moment she saw his injuries, tears streamed down her face.
Her sleeves seemed to still carry the fragrance of the past, brushing against his face.
He is about to die.
Xuanxiu was a little nervous. He was afraid that Mingyao would do something stupid.
Just about to say something.
Mingyao leaned over and kissed him, blood filling the air between his lips and teeth, and the kiss left him instantly.
The wounds on his body began to heal quickly.
Xuanxiu was shocked.
But she let go of him, and the moment she stood up, the familiar aura of his surrounded her.
That is the immortal power that can be fully controlled only by those who are destined by heaven.
Her long hair danced in the wind, and her clothes were stained with blood.
She seemed to notice his gaze.
She turned around, revealing a small part of her bloodstained face, her eyes filled with sadness and confusion.
"Miao Miao, I can't go back"
She couldn't go back after all.
