Chapter 331 The First Generation of Destiny Child
"This power is pure and boundless, far exceeding the limits left behind after the fall of ordinary great beings."
Fu Yan's usually cold voice took on an unprecedented solemnity, "Judging from the energy level, it's almost at the origin."
"Ahem... The Mu family's secret scrolls record that those whose destiny has reached its end possess power that transcends heaven and earth, beyond the comprehension of ordinary reason..."
“He is the chosen one.” Li Yuan said decisively, “He is the chosen one.”
In that instant, a chill ran down Huali's spine and up to the top of her head.
"A child of destiny? Qi Ran told you that?"
Wen Tingyun nodded, "That's right." He first looked up at the sky, then turned to look at Huali, and said meaningfully, "In that case, that cicada is neither an exception nor the end."
"A person with such great fortune should be blessed by heaven and earth, so why did they end up like this?"
Each of them recalled the figures they had seen.
Why?
How could this be?
What could have caused five people of such extraordinary talent and extraordinary fortune to end up in such a state?
Just as this boundless chill swept over everyone, Hua Li and Ao Bai exchanged a glance.
A thought flashed through her mind like lightning.
Five, Luck Child, Cards, An Incident Ten Thousand Years Ago, The Cicada's Cry, No One Ascending for a Thousand Years, The Witch Clan, The Tree of Cause and Effect...
The terrifying and clear truth made Karin's hands tremble uncontrollably.
...No way? Is she overthinking it?
Ao Bai sensed Hua Li's emotions, and the usually carefree Chief Steward Ao's voice became unusually hoarse: "Host, I can feel the power in this barrier. It's very familiar, as if... it's from the same source as me."
Huali quietly watched it.
Ao Bai paused for a moment, and finally voiced the doubts that Hua Li had been harboring.
"So, back then, did someone else appear with similar cards...?"
Click—
The last piece of the puzzle fell on the heart of the rosewood.
“Ao Bai.” Hua Li suddenly squatted down and gently patted Chief Steward Ao’s head. “Don’t be afraid.”
Ao Bai nuzzled her hand, gazing at her intently.
The girl's eyes were determined. She scratched its chin and said, "Let's... go take a look together."
Ao Bai: "...Alright, let's go take a look."
Only by finding the key can its memory be fully awakened.
Beneath the cherry blossom tree, Karin stood up again. Without further hesitation, she simultaneously raised both the gold and wood element cards.
"Tracing your spiritual roots back to their roots, Ni!"
"Golden Eyes, open!"
Tracing the origins of the wood-type spiritual root, using the scarlet cherry tree as a medium, we can find our roots.
Countless gnarled, green tree roots burst forth from the earth, quickly coiling around the enormous ancient tree before them. The golden wood grain deepened with the light emanating from its veins.
Immediately afterwards, the Golden Eyes of the Gold Card began to listen to all things.
This is the second time Huali has heard the voice of antiquity, following Zhaoheng's previous encounter.
The other four stared blankly at the girl's fluttering skirt and billowing red feathers. In an instant, they understood that she intended to use the card "Crimson Sakura" as a guide and the violently fluctuating emotions of regret before them as a coordinate to forcibly uncover a truth buried by time.
The four of them simultaneously formed hand seals, clearing a path for her! Protectors!
Buzz—
The two cards shone brightly, their power merging into a beam of light that pierced the void where the youth had vanished.
The surrounding scenery was distorted and shifting!
The cherry blossoms, stone bridge, koi fish, and flowing water all faded away, replaced by a hazy halo.
Karin's consciousness fell into a river of time.
She saw it...
*
She saw a true prodigy.
Ling, the name of the young man under the cherry blossom tree.
He was born in a land of exceptional beauty and spiritual energy, a great demon born from the fusion of the spirit of heaven and earth and the fortune of the region.
Huali's consciousness was suspended high in the sky, unable to speak or move freely, and could only follow Ling's movements.
The great monster was carefree.
With a light tap of the fingertip, the stream dances joyfully; with a slight thought, the mountain mist swirls around one.
Although naive to worldly affairs, they possess the purest and most powerful strength, as well as a natural affinity for all living things.
*
The sunlight seemed to favor this mountain stream that day, scattering golden dappled light across the water's surface.
Huali was looking at Ling, sitting barefoot on a smooth, warm bluestone that had been washed by the water.
Every now and then, a very bold red carp would come over and lightly peck at his toes, causing the great demon to chuckle.
Just as he extended his finger to transfer pure spiritual energy, a faint sound of footsteps, different from the natural rhythm of the mountains and forests, came from behind.
Ling, like a fawn sensing an unfamiliar presence, looked up alertly.
Huali looked over with him, and after seeing what the other person looked like, her face instantly turned extremely ugly!
A woman emerged from the mountains and forests.
Her clothes were simple yet peculiar, made of a material Ling had never seen before. The girl's face held a hint of inquisitive curiosity, but no malice.
She had clearly noticed Ling as well.
His gaze fell on the school of fish playing around his fingertips, and an undisguised look of amazement flashed across his face.
The girl didn't approach, but stood a short distance away, her voice as gentle as an early summer breeze, "Eh? You can actually control fish? That's amazing."
"Are you... an elf? A monster? You're so beautiful."
Ling Weiwei was taken aback.
No one had ever asked him that question before.
Mountain spirits and monsters feared his power, and cultivators and mortals alike could not reach this place.
Who is she? Why is she here?
Ling looked at her.
The girl's eyes were bright, as if they held stars.
The other person didn't seem to mind his wariness, and sat down on another rock, gazing at the stream, and sighed softly, "I just got lost and came here because I thought it was comfortable. I never expected to meet someone as...special as you."
The genuine weariness and desolation in his tone strangely touched Ling.
He paused for a moment, then spoke hesitantly, "Very few people come here."
"Really?" The girl's eyes crinkled as she smiled at him. "That means we're very destined for each other."
Ling's ear tips flushed slightly.
For some reason, even though it was their first meeting, he felt a strong liking for her.
The two of them each had a piece of bluestone and sat quietly on it, enjoying the gentle breeze.
Just as Ling's body slowly relaxed, the girl next to her tilted her head and said, "Oh right, I haven't asked your name yet. My name is Jingzhe. What's your name?"
"...Ling".
"Ling? That's a very nice name."
Sunlight fell on Jingzhe's smiling eyes and brows as she slowly pulled out a blue card under Ling's curious gaze.
"Ling, my talisman seems to have lost its effect. Can you take a look?"
