Chapter 122
Just when Yuan Xiu and others were shaking the Heavenly Dao, Rong Jing and Xie Xuanqing finally broke all the formations set up by the opponent and rushed over.
The wail of Heaven could be heard from afar, but the Sky-Splitting Array that was invisible to ordinary people was very clear to Rong Jing.
Rong Jing finally understood the reason for the abnormality in the way of heaven that he felt.
...Back then, he defied destiny and indeed caused harm to Heaven. It was no wonder that Heaven had treated him so strangely before.
But even so, Rong Jing had never imagined that the Way of Heaven would collapse to this extent.
No, the Heavenly Dao he had come into contact with before was indeed not in a very good condition, but it was definitely not to the extent it is today.
With his brows slightly furrowed, Rong Jing slowly looked at Yuan Xiu not far away.
The scene all around looked almost doomsday-like, but Yuan Xiu stood on the beach. The strong wind blew up his clothes, but it could not shake the strange, stiff, and gentle smile on his face.
"Master Rong." His current appearance is not much different from Wang Zijun, but due to the influence of his soul, he also has some similarities to his original body. As if noticing Xie Xuanqing's presence, he called out again, "And Emperor Zhao... It's been a long time."
If we count the fight in the Lan family's secret realm, it actually wasn't that long.
But if we only talk about the previous life, there are indeed hundreds of years between them.
Rong Jing stared at him for a while before calling out indifferently, "Yuan Xiu."
His long silver-white hair, like flowing clouds, was blown up by the strong wind, but even so, he seemed to be favored by heaven and earth, spotless and pure, as cool as an immortal.
When Yuan Xiu saw him like this, his well-controlled smile couldn't help but freeze slightly.
As expected... this is how he views Rong Jing, and he never likes her.
Thinking of this, Yuan Xiu simply said, "Back then, the Heavenly Dao could not distinguish right from wrong and sent down a punishment on you, Master Rong. Now I will punish it for you. I wonder if you are satisfied, Master Rong?"
The pale and stiff face was hidden in the blowing sand, making it difficult to see clearly. Rong Jing's voice was slightly deep: "What did you do?"
Even if the Heavenly Dao was damaged back then, it should have recovered somewhat after hundreds of years. It would never be like it is today, on the verge of collapse.
Looking at Yuan Xiu's expression at this moment, how could Rong Jing and Xie Xuanqing not guess that Yuan Xiu must have done something behind their backs.
The amber eyes were as calm as a clear lake, and were eye-catching enough even in this earth-shaking scene.
Yuan Xiu looked at his clear and sharp aura, and finally stopped smiling when he heard his question. "How come, after hundreds of years, Master Rong's mystical arts have regressed to this point? He can't even see what I have arranged?"
But it really made him... even more jealous.
Rong Jing met his gaze, his eyes darkening slightly.
Before, perhaps he could not tell what means the other party used, but as one end of the sky in the distance gradually sank, resentment was filled between the dark clouds, blood filled the entire sky, and the faint breath of the formation came, Rong Jing found a description that matched this scene from his memory.
Xia Changsheng: "Humans are the most powerful creatures in the universe and are born with spirits. Most celestial masters believe that the purest spirit energy comes from heaven and earth, but that is not true. As the most favored being of heaven, every mortal has a breath of the purest spirit energy in the world hidden in his body."
This breath of spiritual energy is hidden within the human body, born with their soul and leaving with their soul.
Although no one knows why some mortals who have no talent for practicing the mystical arts have such an extremely pure spiritual energy in their bodies, some heavenly masters who discovered this secret by chance tried to do something about it.
This is how the evil magic that was powerful enough to shake the foundations of heaven and earth was created.
Heaven favors humans the most, but is also most easily harmed by humans.
After gathering tens of millions of deep-seated grievances and blood, and with the guidance of the purest spiritual energy in the world, which belonged to the darling of heaven, it finally formed the Heaven-Breaking Formation.
Compared to the Heaven-Slaying Formation that Yuan Xiu had used, the name of the Heaven-Breaking Formation seemed to sound more ordinary.
However, if the core of the Zhutian Formation is found, the problem can be solved successfully in the end. However, the Potian Formation had been lost in the Zhao Dynasty, and no one knows how it was set up or how to break it.
When Rong Jing's eyes moved, Yuan Xiu knew that he had guessed the existence of the Sky-Breaking Formation.
With a slight smile, Yuan Xiu suddenly raised his hand, and hundreds of resentful souls rose up from under his hand. In just a moment, they collided with the pale golden light in the air that was almost imperceptible to the naked eye.
The rune that Rong Jing had secretly drawn was stopped by him. Rong Jing frowned slightly, and then he heard Yuan Xiu say, "It seems that Master Rong has figured out what kind of formation this is, but Master Rong hasn't figured it out yet?"
“——Once the Sky-Breaking Formation begins to operate, it will never stop until the resentment is exhausted.”
Yuan Xiu had been preparing for so many years, and had secretly killed countless people, so the resentment that had accumulated at this time was extremely huge.
Even when the Zhao Dynasty was not yet established and the old dynasty was rampant, the resentment that had been brewing was only half as much as the resentment we are experiencing now.
When Rong Jing dealt with the accumulated resentment back then, the method he used was to change the dragon veins. Taking advantage of the opportunity of the great changes in the world's situation, when the heaven sent down spiritual energy, all the resentment was melted away.
But at this moment, the purpose of these resentments was very clear, targeting Tiandao. Tiandao had been damaged by the Zhutian Formation before, and was even weaker at this time. Even if the country was willing to let Rong Jing take action, the damage to Tiandao that would follow would be enough to cause it to collapse the moment the formation failed.
Therefore, this time, it is impossible for Rong Jing to use the method of changing the dragon veins to release spiritual energy to dissolve the resentment.
But if this is the case, he would have to rely on his spiritual power alone to resolve these resentments. Even if his cultivation was high enough, it would be enough to exhaust him to death here.
And Yuan Xiu couldn't just stand there and watch him take action.
Just like before, Rong Jing was always paying attention to his actions, and vice versa, Yuan Xiu was also paying attention to his movements, trying to prevent him from taking any action.
The sky was falling further and further away, and the dark clouds, dyed red by resentment, piled up like a quilt.
Yuan Xiu didn't know when a black soul-calling banner appeared in his hand. Blood and energy were surging on it, and countless resentful souls were lingering around it.
As Yuan Xiu moved his fingers, black blood flowed from his wrist. The resentful souls lingering on the soul-summoning banner came into contact with his blood and were immediately transformed into evil spirits by the extremely evil spiritual energy!
Faint whimpering sounds were heard from the air. The people from the production crew were hiding in the villa and could only feel that the temperature around them seemed to be dropping rapidly. In less than a minute, the temperature that had just forced people to wear only short-sleeved shirts dropped to one or two degrees.
"Da da da." The sound of teeth chattering was heard from somewhere. Master Long Tianshi and Taoist Miaoyin came back to their senses in an instant and quickly added another formation for everyone.
The temperature is finally warming up.
The director rubbed his hands and murmured, "What's going on..."
Although the evil ghost could not be seen in the air, just by looking at the mysterious spirit-calling flag in Yuan Xiu's hand, the director knew that the hypothermia was related to Yuan Xiu.
When Master Long Tian heard his question, he didn't know how to answer it.
The confrontation between the two parties downstairs was no longer something that someone of her level of cultivation could intervene in.
At the moment when Yuan Xiu intensified those resentful souls, Rong Jing also moved.
The jade pen emitting brilliant light passed through the air, and in just a split second, it drew out countless exquisite runes.
When black, red and light gold meet, both evil and righteousness return to nothingness.
Yuan Xiu’s magic skills are not bad. In fact, he awakened more than a hundred years earlier than Rong Jing, so it is very likely that he knows more than Rong Jing now.
But he had been burned by the karmic fire summoned by Rong Jing before. Not only had his cultivation almost disappeared, but even his soul was still in an incomplete state.
So even if he has now relied on the Liao family to cultivate most of his skills, his origin is still weak compared to Rong Jing.
In this confrontation, he suffered a slight loss.
However, Yuan Xiu was forced to take a few steps back by the aftermath of the magic, but the smile on his face deepened abnormally.
Rong Jing's brows twitched slightly, and then he sensed something was wrong very keenly.
He threw a handful of talismans onto Xie Xuanqing. However, Liao Peiming had been practicing with Yuan Xiu in the past few years. Even though his talent was nothing compared to Rong Jing's, his cultivation had improved a lot over such a long period of time.
So facing Rong Jing's defense at this time, Liao Peiming gritted his teeth, then slapped his chest directly, drawing out a mouthful of thick blood from his heart.
The heart blood of the Heavenly Master can inspire thousands of magic techniques.
Rong Jing had not expected Liao Peiming to act so decisively. Seeing the defensive formation being broken, Rong Jing shouted softly, "Xuan Qing!"
Xie Xuanqing was in the middle of the battle and was extremely sharp at this moment. Before Rong Jing finished speaking, he directly pulled out a talisman in his hand and blocked it in front of him.
Liao Peiming's face was pale, with blood still on his lips, but the peach wood sword in his hand stabbed at Xie Xuanqing without any hesitation.
The hazy spiritual light blocked his attack, and Xie Xuanqing took the opportunity to raise one of his long legs and kick him in the abdomen with all his strength.
"Hmm!" Liao Peiming didn't expect that Xie Xuanqing could react so calmly at this time. He groaned and fell back a distance. When he got up, his eyes became more and more cold and determined.
He has already found a physical body for his Zijun to live in, and the Liao family members should also go to the special department to obtain Zijun's soul.
So... he must get Xie Xuanqing's memory to resurrect his Zijun.
Using the peach wood sword to support himself and climb up, Liao Peiming no longer held back. He muttered something and directly awakened the formation that had been engraved on the magic weapon in advance.
The "life-substitution array" can not only seduce a person's fate, but also seduce a person's soul.
He had intercepted a wisp of Xie Xuanqing's aura during the attack just now. Although it was not very strong, it was able to activate the entire formation.
Just when the entire formation was about to take shape, Xie Xuanqing vaguely felt that there seemed to be something in his soul that was ready to break out of the ground.
...Could it be that he really forgot something?
Xie Xuan clenched the soul-soothing talisman in his hand, but couldn't help but think.
The endless flow of talismanic power protected his soul, but it could not block the subtle smell of blood that came from the air again.
"To bring the dead back to life is an act against heaven. In addition to your merits and destiny, you will be required to use your body as a seal to seal the last bit of your will. When the time is right, you can use this will to rebuild Rong Jing's body - are you willing?"
"I do."
"Even after reincarnation, your soul and body will be integrated with this wish power. If you want to remove them, you will definitely hurt yourself. Are you willing?"
The emperor who was once so brave and powerful has now grown old. His jet-black hair has turned white and his tall stature seems to have shrunk.
But he remained decisive and calm, and did not become indulged in pleasure or hesitant because of his age and status as an emperor.
Xie Chong raised his head, and the beads hanging from the nine-layered crown hit each other, making a crisp sound.
"I do."
In front of Xia Changsheng, Xie Chong rarely regarded himself as an emperor.
He wanted more to stand shoulder to shoulder with Rong Jing and call him "Master".
But, in the end, it didn't happen.
After getting Xie Chong's approval, Xia Changsheng and other fellow disciples of Tianyuan Sect no longer hesitated. They directly activated their spiritual power and integrated the purest willpower into the body of the emperor in front of them bit by bit.
It was not a good feeling to have one's soul touched. But Xie Chong thought that after his Huaiyu was resurrected, he would wait for this wish power to reshape his body, so he felt that there was nothing to be afraid of.
With a light sigh, Xie Chong said to Xia Changsheng and the others at the very end: "Master Xia, please help me seal this memory as well."
The news of the power of will that can reshape the body would attract many people to spy on him. Xie Chong has always been cautious, and at this time he directly asked Xia Changsheng to seal up the memories of all those who knew about this, including his own.
This memory will only resurface after reincarnation and meeting Rong Jing.
But perhaps too much time had passed, and this memory did not appear when Xie Xuanqing and Rong Jing met. Instead, it was stimulated by Liao Peiming's magic at this time.
I didn't know whether to laugh or sigh.
These wishes were the most devout beliefs that Xie Chong collected from thousands of people back then. In addition to being able to resurrect the body... they may also have other functions.
As the seal was automatically released, the sealed wishes also exuded their own special aura.
Rong Jing noticed the change in his aura almost instantly.
At this time, the confrontation between him and Yuan Xiu had almost reached a white-hot point. Rong Jing forced Yuan Xiu to break his life-saving magic weapon, the Yinhun Banner. Yuan Xiu also pressed on step by step, forcing Rong Jing to spit out blood from his heart and triggering endless karma fire.
The resentful blood and karmic fire that rose up intertwined and crushed each other, and at a certain moment, it seemed to affect the aura of the island.
Xie Xuanqing only felt a flash before his eyes, and when he raised his head again, he saw a heart-deepening scene that he had never seen before.
Before, he had only seen the heavy dark clouds, but when he looked up again, he saw the blood and evil mixed in the dark clouds, which ordinary people could not possibly see.
They are entangled, as if they have consciousness, and under the guidance of a ray of spiritual light, they cling to the sky that is about to collapse.
Is that the Heaven-Breaking Formation that his husband and Yuan Xiu mentioned?
It really looks... extremely dangerous.
When Xie Xuanqing saw the evil aura in the sky, other people on Metlin Island, such as Zhou Songyun and the armed soldiers, also saw this scene.
They are still fighting. The Liao family's Taoist priest specializes in the art of talismans. Under Yuan Xiu's guidance in the past few years, his skills have become even more advanced. The talismans he uses are also difficult for the Taoist priests of special departments to resist.
With talismans drawn by Rong Jing, Master Yuankong and Taoist Master Miaoyin pasted on their bodies, the soldiers barely resisted the talismans of Liao family's Taoist priest and lightly fired the guns in their hands.
The spurting blood fell onto the beach, dyeing the light golden sand brown-red.
Zhou Songyun listened to the orders coming down from above, then looked back at his comrades in the same department who were still resisting stubbornly, and his eyes fell on the silver-white figure in front of the villa.
"……receive."
He had already prepared himself for sacrifice, so he had no regrets even if he died on the island of Metlin.
But he was not the only one on the island, there were also his comrades and innocent victims who should not have been involved in this matter.
So... even for these victims, they have to try their best to find that little bit of hope.
Inside the villa, the camera silently recorded the entire scene.
Barrage:
"It really seems like the sky is about to collapse..."
"Something happened at my house too. My parents just went out to buy a lot of things. I feel like the world is going to end."
"If the world is ending, it won't help to have a lot of stuff."
"Those dark clouds look so scary, as if they are dripping with blood..."
Just as one of the comments said, if the sky really collapsed, no matter how much they prepared, after the sky fell, humans might not continue to survive in this world, so what was the use?
“Who can help us…”
This barrage flashed across the screen, and a name flashed through the minds of those who were still holding their phones at this time.
"Rong Jing".
Can he help them?
The battle situation became increasingly intense.
Not only did Rong Jing notice the strange aura on Xie Xuanqing's body, but Yuan Xiu's main purpose of coming here this time was Xie Xuanqing, so his eyes lit up at this moment.
"Sure enough, it's on you."
What a pure and mouth-watering wish.
As long as he took these wishes into his own hands, he could reshape his body and no longer have to live like a ghost.
Of course, before collecting these powers of will, you need to get rid of all the people who are in the way.
His eyes suddenly turned fierce. Yuan Xiu, who was originally at a disadvantage, quickly perked up after sensing the aura of willpower from Xie Xuanqing, and the magic he used became more and more urgent and fierce.
Rong Jing held the spirit pen in his hand. The aura on his body had been stimulated to the extreme in the previous battle. At this moment, he was also at his peak. The runes he drew were as bright as the sun and the moon, dazzling and brilliant.
The audience before the live broadcast naturally also saw this scene.
Can it be blocked?
After blocking it, can the sky be repaired?
Countless people are concerned about this matter. After the initial chaos, the country also noticed this occasional live broadcast, but for some reason, they did not cut off the live broadcast.
Even the highest-level leader was watching quietly with his computer.
"General Lin, do you think there is still a chance for things to turn around?" he asked after a long time.
General Lin: "...I believe in the special department and Master Rong Tian."
Launching missiles is the worst of the worst options. Once the missiles are launched but the problem of falling from the sky cannot be solved, China will fall into a passive position.
But if nothing is done, the sky will collapse completely, and no one knows what will happen after it really collapses.
dilemma.
The office fell into silence again.
Both of them had their eyes fixed on the screen.
Rong Jing blocked it!
The comments on the screen suddenly stopped, as if one could hear tens of millions of people holding their breath at this moment.
The majestic golden spiritual power is like the sun, moon and stars; the rotating Bagua Tai Chi exudes a mysterious and unparalleled aura.
After Yuan Xiu had withstood the burning of the karmic fire, he thought he had won the battle. However, when he saw Rong Jing's performance, his expression changed: "You actually destroyed the Zhou Tian Gua!"
No, it cannot be said that it was destroyed directly, but rather that all of its original power was extracted. How did Rong Jing do such a self-destructive act so smoothly!
The Zhoutian Formation, which contained Rong Jing's original power and a trace of will left by the Heavenly Dao, took shape in Rong Jing's hands. The power contained in it was so great that even Rong Jing felt frightened.
But...if one wants to completely defeat Yuan Xiu and resolve the Sky-breaking Formation, there is still some gap.
After Yuan Xiu stared at Rong Jing for a while, he also laughed: "Even if you can stop me, so what? Even if the Heavenly Dao is destroyed, mortals can still survive, but the Heavenly Master who cultivates with the power of the Heavenly Dao will be the first to be buried with him!"
The Way of Heaven is everlasting. After this destruction, a new Way of Heaven will be created.
Yuan Xiu never expected to replace the existence of Heavenly Dao. What he wanted was to seize Xie Xuanqing's wish power during the short period of time when Heavenly Dao overlapped, reshape his body, and from then on, roam free outside the Three Realms!
He was so excited that he didn't care about anything else. However, Liao Peiming, who was waiting for an opportunity to seize Xie Xuanqing's power of will, paused.
Heavenly Masters...are all buried with the dead?
He suddenly raised his head: "You said before--" That's not what you said.
However, Yuan Xiu no longer looked at him, but directly extended his hand to Xie Xuanqing, who was standing beside him with his eyebrows lowered.
Rong Jing directly slapped his hand back.
Then the next second, he felt a warm body suddenly covering his back.
"Is there something missing from your technique, sir?" Xie Xuan asked in a low voice.
He also had the talisman drawn by Rong Jing himself on his body, and it was in perfect condition at this time.
Rong Jing listened to his voice and vaguely felt that something was wrong.
"It's none of your business—"
"How can it have nothing to do with me?" Xie Xuanqing knew his teacher would say this, and chuckled, "The way of heaven collapsed, and those buried with him were all heavenly masters..."
Rong Jing's strength is the strongest among the contemporary Heavenly Masters, so naturally he was the first to disappear.
And how could Xie Xuanqing allow this to happen?
With a slight sigh, Xie Xuanqing suddenly reached out and held Rong Jing's wrist.
A huge amount of willpower suddenly poured into the formation, and as the willpower was stripped away, Xie Xuanqing's face turned pale in an instant, and his entire aura became light and void.
A streak of blood could not be controlled from his lips. In order to prevent Rong Jing from stopping him, Xie Xuanqing endured the excruciating pain and said, "Sir, aren't you worried about the people outside?"
"When the laws of nature collapse, all living things in the world will surely be affected."
"Are you going to stop me, sir?"
As the force of resistance loosened, Xie Xuan lowered his eyes slightly, knowing that his husband had thought it through.
Not knowing what to feel in his heart, Xie Xuanqing felt the vitality in his body constantly draining away, and smiled slowly.
Then in the next second, he felt a mysterious breath rising from Rong Jing's body. The vast spiritual energy and vitality were integrated into the formation. Together with the wish power transmitted by Xie Xuanqing, it directly stimulated the power of the Zhoutian Formation to the extreme.
Yuan Xiu's pupils shrank slightly: "No——"
A ray of golden light flashed past, directly wiping out all his cultivation and vitality, and then fell onto the dark clouds in the sky.
As a result, everyone in the live broadcast room saw that the dark clouds in the sky were dyed with brilliant golden light, and the extremely cold and weird resentful blood energy was completely eliminated under the spread of the golden light.
The fallen sky slowly heals, and everything seems to be reborn.
Only on the beach, the figures of Xie Xuanqing and Rong Jing were lying together.
"??? Are you okay?"
"It seems to be alright. It was like a sci-fi movie just now..."
"It's a fantasy movie, right?"
"That's not right. Wait, what happened to Master Rong Tian and the others?"
"That golden light just now seemed to be struggling. Are they really okay now?"
“Pray for peace.”
“Pray for peace.”
“Pray for peace.”
After the initial surprise and excitement, everyone fell into tension again as they looked at the two figures on the beach whose life or death was unknown.
To be frank, these two people just saved the world! If something really happened in front of them...
Everyone couldn't help but pray in their hearts when they thought of this result.
Little by little, strange light fell from all directions.
Xie Xuanqing opened his eyes with difficulty. His internal organs were in sharp pain, but he subconsciously looked at Rong Jing in his arms.
There was blood on her beautiful face, her extremely pretty eyes were tightly closed, and her whole body was as cold as frost and snow. From a vague look, she seemed almost transparent.
Xie Xuan tried to hold him with trembling hands, but found that the other person's body seemed to be getting lighter and lighter.
This body was "borrowed" by Rong Jing. At this time, he had consumed all his cultivation and vitality. Without the support of spiritual energy, the body naturally dissipated along with the original owner.
"Plop." Before Xie Xuanqing could come to his senses, a tear fell from his eyes.
He...had just stripped away the willpower to reshape his body with his own hands.
Realizing this, Xie Xuanqing felt a sudden sharp pain in his heart, and as Rong Jing's body in his arms disappeared, the pain became more and more severe.
He and Rong Jing were facing away from the live camera at the moment. The audience could not see their expressions, but they could see Xie Xuanqing kissing Rong Jing on the lips with great pains and care.
The previous speculation seemed to be verified at this time, but no one had any bad thoughts.
However, they still couldn't help thinking -
Did something really happen to Rong Jing?
The desire to pray is stronger.
The strange spots of light that gathered together became more and more dense.
Just as Xie Xuanqing was sitting there in a daze, his arms, which had already been so light as if only air, suddenly felt a heavy weight.
Xie Xuanqing lowered his head hesitantly, and saw Rong Jing's peaceful sleeping face.
