Chapter 274 Xixi's true intention is to protect her parents. This world only needs one Xixi [asking for monthly votes]
Crackle, clackle...
It started raining, and the cold rain washed away the strong smell of blood.
The pale figure flickered with a bright light, like the shining points of starlight in the night sky.
Li Che was radiating light, his eyes full of pity. He stretched out his hand and gently placed it on Xixi's tiny head.
In the illusion presented by Tao Yun, Xixi's figure is only one year old. It is really small and very delicate.
In Li Che's impression, the memory of Xixi, who was so young, has already begun to seem a bit distant.
This time, Li Che came with the will transmitted by the flying thunder chess piece, and he actually saw Xixi as a child again.
Xixi was sitting on the ground, looking up as if she was looking at the light.
Her pupils were as black as ink, like a pool of extremely dark water, as if it wanted to draw people's souls into it.
Li Che looked at him calmly and made eye contact.
Xixi's eyes began to waver.
“Daddy…”
Xixi opened her mouth and murmured something, her lips drooping and her face full of grievance.
Li Che rubbed her head.
"Daddy is always here."
Li Che felt a little distressed.
The mentality test has a huge impact on Xixi. What kind of mentality can a five-year-old child have?
"If you are tired, if you don't want to take the test anymore, just give up... Daddy can always protect you. As long as Daddy is here, you don't need to worry about anything."
Li Che rubbed Xixi's head gently and tenderly.
The dark color in Xixi's eyes began to fade away, as if the awakened power was suppressed again by Xixi's own will.
The dark, churning pool of water beneath him slowly stopped boiling, and the enchanting black pattern that spread across Xixi's body also began to wriggle and slowly retreat.
Xixi's eyes regained clarity. She got up from the ground, opened her arms, and ran into Li Che's arms.
"Daddy...Xixi thought she would never see Daddy and Mommy again."
"Although Xixi knew that it was all an illusion, she was still very angry and in pain..."
"Xixi needs to become stronger so that she can protect Daddy and Mommy! Xixi will kill anyone who wants to kill Daddy and Mommy!"
Xixi raised her head, her little face full of seriousness.
Perhaps, at this moment, Xixi finally understood what she wanted to protect.
Her heart is pure. She just doesn't want to leave her parents and doesn't want them to get hurt. This is the obsession of five-year-old Xixi! "Xixi must pass the test! She must become strong!"
"Xixi, get stronger, and when you are stronger, you will change, and only then can you protect Daddy from being beaten to death!"
Xixi said seriously.
Li Che smiled brightly.
Rubbed Xixi's head.
"Then daddy is always watching you."
"Look at how strong my Xixi is!"
Xixi, who had been unhappy for a long time, finally showed a bright smile, just like the sunshine shining from behind the clouds, dispelling the endless darkness and bringing the warmth of spring back to the earth.
Feilei City, City Lord’s Mansion.
The rain kept pouring down, splashing on the eaves, exploding into rich blood-red flowers.
Xixi stood up, clenched her five fingers, and countless black flames shot out from her left arm and rolled rapidly. The scorching heat instantly evaporated all the rain falling from the sky!
Xixi took a step forward, and brilliant sparks began to jump out, and the sparks were also black.
Although the patterns spreading from the Nine Netherworld gradually faded, the residual power given to Xixi still continued.
Xixi felt this power, as if she felt another great existence hidden in her body.
"Humph! Xixi is Xixi. There is only one Xixi in this world!"
"Xixi... is Daddy and Mommy's favorite child!"
Bang! Xixi grasped the purple flame snake spear with one hand, which was wrapped in black flames and looked like a mutated fire spear. The Hell Lotus Wind and Fire Golden Light Wheel began to spin at high speed.
Holding Xixi's body, he turned into a black lightning and rushed out of the City Lord's Mansion.
Around the City Lord's Mansion, figures emerged one after another, shrouded in a thick aura of death and corpses. There was also a figure that looked like a child, laughing shrilly, and it was the Spirit Infant Dharma Master!
Click, click——
The entire Feilei City began to offer sacrifices, the ground broke apart, and the bricks and stones of the City Lord's Mansion were shattered.
The scene that Li Che had experienced once before reappeared at this moment!
The strange temple of the three-eyed spirit infant actually broke out of the ground directly in the city lord's mansion. The rich and surging divinity was raging like a tentacle, swinging wildly.
All around, the child body of the Lingying Sect's Lingying Dharma Master was wearing adult robes and floating in the air, making a rustling sound.
Xixi rushed out of the City Lord's Mansion.
I saw such a lineup right in front of me!
"kill!"
Xixi held the spear at an angle, stepped on a single Hell Lotus Wind and Fire Near Light Wheel, and floated high in the air, with her chin raised and her little belly sticking out, glancing sideways at the evil people from the Lingying Sect below.
The spear was shaken, and the wind and rain exploded!
Xixi suddenly turned into a stream of light and killed these people.
Li Che's glowing figure followed quietly behind.
Xixi is killing people.
He was watching Xixi kill someone.
If Xixi wants to kill, daddy will accompany you to kill.
…
…
In the small cave of Qiankun.
The misty fog began to roll continuously.
The divine sculpture of the founder of Qianyuan Divine Sect, standing in the center of the circular white jade staircase, shook slightly.
His eyelids trembled slightly, and the next moment, the Divine Eagle's eyes opened again.
The light on the Divine Condor seemed to have dimmed a lot, as if half of it had been swallowed up by some giant creature.
Emotions of pain and confusion emerged on the face of the ancestor's divine eagle.
Among these children...
There is a gold-eating beast! It's so hard!
Is the essence of Taoism that I just absorbed from the eggshell being returned so soon?
It turns out that there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world!
He even suspected...
The shell of the tea egg was part of the other party's plan...
However, rays of light burst out from the eyes of the Grandmaster's Divine Eagle, sweeping across the children with different faces who were sitting cross-legged on the white jade stairs.
Some are in pain, some are crazy, some are angry, some are heartbroken, and some are wailing...
There are seven emotions and six desires, and all kinds of things.
The test of mind and character tests one’s persistence in one’s original intention, which is extremely important for children.
The stable mentality they have gained this time will make it easier for them to impact the divine fetus and shape the soul of heaven and earth in the future.
Even in the realm of divine calamity, when facing the terrible calamity of the inner demon, one can have the ability to resist.
The three tests this time were to select Lu Taibai's direct disciples. Lu Taibai intended to train him as the young master, so the tests were stricter, especially the character test...
Lu Taibai needs to determine the character of his future disciples and develop a training plan based on that character.
Boom——!!! The smoke surrounding the white jade stairs began to thin out gradually.
Obviously, the test of one's character is gradually coming to an end.
Under the white jade archway.
The spring rain is drizzling.
His silver hair fluttered wildly amid the muffled sound of spring thunder. Lu Taibai slowly retracted his gaze and looked up into the sky. In his pupils, there seemed to be a brilliant sword light flashing continuously.
"Strange phenomena in heaven and earth..."
"It seems... this is not an ordinary test of character."
“Perhaps this time… Lu will accept an extraordinary disciple.”
Lu Taibai leaned back in his chair, a slight smile on his lips.
Well...
The Qianyuan Divine Sect indeed needs a disciple who can hold up the clan's reputation.
I just don’t know who this disciple will be?
Lu Taibai's eyes looked through the Qiankun Cave at one child after another, and each child had a different expression.
Although they are very young, they all seem to have unusual stories.
Suddenly.
Lu Taibai's eyes fell on Xixi.
Slightly stunned.
Xixi, who originally showed a look of pain, now relaxed her brows and raised the corners of her lips in a bright and happy arc.
as if……
At the heart and nature level, she encountered something that made her very happy.
Among a group of children in pain and struggle.
Xixi's bright smile was too obvious.
After Lu Taibai was stunned, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his lips.
"Is that you?"
"Little girl..."
Lu Taibai couldn't help but feel a little bit of anticipation for his new disciple.
If it is really Xixi...
He could already imagine his wife cheering and jumping for joy.
Thinking of his wife, Lu Taibai's eyes drooped slightly, and his silver hair fell down from the side of his face, covering the slightly raised curve of his lips.
…
…
Li Che leaned back in the armchair, the hem of his black shirt swaying slightly in the spring breeze.
His black and vigorous hair fluttered in the wind, with several strands sticking to his cheeks.
His eyes flickered, and deep in his eyes, it seemed as if a chessboard of heaven and earth was reflecting and interweaving. Half of his mind entered the chessboard of heaven and earth, and the other half remained in reality.
The ball between the eyebrows vibrated slightly, and a picture seemed to be reflected on the chessboard of heaven and earth as if time was going back.
Li Che used the flying thunder chess piece to recall the illusion that Xixi encountered. He saw everything clearly and his eyes gradually focused.
It was like another life. If Li Che had not awakened to the Dao because of Xixi's birth, perhaps... everything encountered in the illusion would be the final outcome and fate of Li Che's family.
The power of Tao Yun speculated about a life, as if retracing the disaster that Xixi would encounter in her life. In that disaster, Li Che and Zhang Ya had already died.
Xixi's sadness and anger seemed to awaken another will deep in her soul, which Li Che understood as the will of her previous life.
"Xixi's previous life?"
Li Che tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest of the chair, his brows slightly furrowed.
This was... somewhat beyond his expectations.
这一次的心性关考核，竟是不小心将曦曦的前世的意志给唤醒？
因为极致愤怒的情绪，所以唤醒了那沉眠在灵魂深处的意志，就像是……将一尊怪物给放出来般。
若是李澈没有干预，任由那股意志控制着曦曦的身躯疯狂行事，慢慢的，独属于曦曦的意志可能会逐渐的被压制下去，发生转换。
五指猛地攥起，椅子护手之上都好似出现了指痕般，险些被他捏成了粉末。
“曦曦灵魂深处埋藏的意志？”
“那样的话……曦曦还是我的曦曦吗？还是我最乖巧，最宝贝的女儿吗？”
李澈眼帘微微低垂下来。
看来，得帮助曦曦压制这份意志的复苏，这份意志或许很强大，那好似从九幽之中苏醒的意志，极其恐怖，充满了如山岳倾塌的压迫感，那种位阶压迫，放在庙神之中，怕都是极高的那一列。
所以，李澈不由感受到了压力……
可也只是压力而已，因为不管是多大的压力，李澈都必须帮助曦曦压制住这份意志，哪怕是曦曦灵魂深处潜藏的意志，或许算是第二个曦曦……
李澈也只是需要一个天真浪漫，开开心心，无忧无虑的曦曦。
那意志需要悲伤刺激，需要杀戮来激发……
那曦曦得遭受到多大的痛苦，才会让这个意志出现？
李澈不想让曦曦遭受痛苦！李澈思考着该如何压制这份意志。
至少，不让这份意志影响到曦曦……
身为父亲，为女儿操心。
天经地义。
……
……
白玉大坪之上，春雨淅淅沥沥的洒下。
天穹展现出的异象，惊动了不少人，许多大世家的强者都有些弄不清楚，为何会出现这等异象。
苏家马车之中，苏家现任家主苏道灵，缓缓收回目光。
“不愧是吕太白的收徒考核，连能够引动天地异象的神童都出现了，就是不知道是谁？”
“心性能够引动天地异象……必然是极其纯粹的几种心性。”
“赤子之心？杀戮之心？冷漠之心？”
苏道灵眼眸闪烁。
不管是哪一种，都意味着这位神童的心性极其纯粹，心性纯粹者，若是寻到其契合的修炼之法，布置好修炼计划，修为提升的速度将会一日千里。
“苏黎……能有机会吗？”
苏道灵吐出一口气，苏家那么多神童参加，最终……只有苏黎踏上了白玉阶梯，留在了乾坤小洞天中，跻身成为十五位神童之一。
黄剑酒的青梅竹马，竹青……
能够让黄剑酒魂牵梦绕，的确血脉不错，从小世家走出，能与黄剑酒一同跻身内门，甚至以十八岁的年龄，冲上了外门人杰谱。
天赋自是不错，苏无名娶了竹青之后，十年前才真正生下了苏黎。
事实上，竹青的天赋被苏无名吸干后，已经万念俱灰，但是苏无名还是要将她最后一点价值都给榨干。
苏无名挺宝贝苏黎这个儿子的，可惜，苏无名死在了黄剑酒手中。
或许，正是这份仇恨，有机会让苏黎在这一次心性关之中脱颖而出吧？春雨静悄悄的打在了马车的顶上，发出了窸窸窣窣的声响，静谧如常。
苏道灵则是在马车之内办公，没办法，他做家主的经验并不丰富，处理事情的速度就很慢，加上苏家被屠杀了一遍，太多事情要苏道灵处理了。
忽而。
马车之外传来了哗然之声。
“有神童醒了，率先醒来……就代表被淘汰了！”
有人喊道。
按照苏醒过来的先后顺序，就能判断出，在心性关中留下的神童。
心性关之后，便是镇庙关，只有三位神童能够跻身镇庙关。
意味着一旦跻身镇庙关，最后一关的考核，就距离成为吕太白这位天下大神谱第五的绝代人物的弟子身份更进一步。
且……
成为吕太白的最后一位亲传，甚至能够成为乾元神宗的少宗主，这才是最重要的！苏道灵一时间觉得手中的事物处理起来索然无味，他放下了手中的东西，掀开帘布，走出了马车，眸光投落，看向了白玉牌坊之下，剑光肆虐交织组成的光幕。
光幕之中，盘坐环状如龙骨般的白玉阶梯上的十五位神童，开始纷纷苏醒……
第一个苏醒的……是岳令狐。
岳令狐有些茫然的睁开眼，他的脑子尚且有些混乱，沉浸在道蕴之力构建的栩栩如生的幻境之中。
他甚至有些分不清幻境与现实哪个真哪个假。
他环视四周，一颗心陡然一紧。
哪怕是敖青青……居然都还闭着眼眸，双眸流淌着眼泪，无比的痛苦，无比的挣扎。
她还在心性考核中挣扎着……
在一6一9一书一吧一看无一错版本！
说明，这一关心性关，敖青青比他岳令狐更厉害。
“我居然是第一个被淘汰的？”
岳令狐浑身颤栗，茫然无措。
正中央的祖师爷神雕，好似活过来般，眸光瞬间扫来。
岳令狐只感觉天旋地转。
下一刻，整个人就已经被挪移出了乾坤小洞天，一屁股坐在了湿漉漉的白玉牌坊地面上。
冰冷的雨水，浸润了身下的衣服和裤子。
无数的目光投射而来，岳令狐只感觉身躯冰冷至极。
他失魂落魄的走下了白玉阶梯，回到了马车之前。
岳为正掀开帘布，倒是没有多少失望。
“不错。”
“无妨，只是让你去试试而已，本就没有指望你真的能够成为吕太白的弟子。”
岳为正淡淡说道，这话倒是让岳令狐心头微微痛苦。
所有人都觉得他天赋不够，连他爹亦是如此么？但是，岳令狐的确茫然，因为连敖青青都在心性关中比他坚持的更久。
哗然声间，岳令狐来不及悲伤，举目看去，便看到了第二位被淘汰的出现了。
“是七宝神宗的宁采荷！”
“第三位淘汰的也出现了……是神都罗刹公主的公子铁善财……”
……
岳令狐从心性关中苏醒过来，就好像是开了个头般。
一个个神童身躯于摇晃之间，慢慢的睁开了眼眸。
铁善财之后，便是杨羿，杨羿之后乃是周蓬。
周蓬被送出了乾坤小洞天，他伫立在春雨中，取出了一个小笼包塞入口中压压惊。
他回首看了一眼小洞天中的画面。
“云娥姐姐还在坚持……希望你能够坚持下去，若是坚持到镇庙关，你就有机会了。”
周蓬比任何人都清楚云娥所承载的压力，比任何人都希望云娥能够解脱。
他的目光又看向了曦曦。
与所有人满脸的痛苦与挣扎相比，嘴角挂着笑容的曦曦……
让周蓬很难评。
“曦曦有爹娘，有很多很多人在喜欢她，爱着她……可云娥没有。”
“在曦曦和云娥之间……还是希望云娥能够跻身镇庙关。”
周蓬叹了口气。
至于他。
他拍了拍自己肉嘟嘟的肚子，他是周家的宝贝。
周蓬被淘汰之后。
乾坤小洞天之中，剩余的神童数量越来越少。
下一刻苏醒的，出乎所有人的意料，居然是天丹神宗的古河！
古河有些茫然的睁开眼，他扫视四周，看着还有许多位仍旧在坚持着心性关考验的神童，轻轻喟叹了一口气。
他取出了一枚丹药塞入口中，磕豆子般，嘎嘣脆之间，被送出了乾坤小洞天。
可惜啊……一丝道蕴都未曾得获到感应。
乾坤小洞天之中，龙脊环状白玉阶梯之上，剩余的神童有些出乎许多人的意料之外。
公输世家的公输问天、雏龙谱第一的吕青玄、云家的云娥、青云道玄符神宗的玄月，龙神一脉的敖青青，大黎的金太岁，神都皇子吕赤，以及神雕岭李长老的女儿，李暖曦。
八位神童！
这八位神童之中，有好几位都出乎许多人的意料之外。
大坪之上，春雨急骤。
咔擦咔擦，雷霆炸响在铅云之间，使得清明之雨，降的愈发的冰凉。
所有人的目光都盯着乾坤空间，十分紧张与好奇。
主要是……
剩余的八位神童之中，还有两位异族！
金太岁和敖青青！一个大黎大巫神一脉，一个龙神一脉……
着实出乎很多人的意料。
像是岳令狐，就十分复杂的看着敖青青，这个小龙女……居然在心性关表现的如此优异？马车中。
王妃五指攥握，长长的睫毛颤动，很显然，哪怕是她，在这一刻，心绪都忍不住波动起来，无法平静。
时间一点一滴的流逝，在清明时节的雨水冲刷下，不知不觉便溜了过去。
终于，又一位神童睁眼。
哗然之声炸响！
“是玄月！哎哟……那两异族居然还在坚持？玄符神宗的玄月也没有坚持下来……真的是可惜啊。”
玄月睁开眼眸，被送出了乾坤小洞天。
她在第一关天赋关表现优异，得获的一缕道蕴之力，也随之被剥夺。
玄月吐了吐舌头，倒是没有多在意。
“好可惜呀。”
她的眼睛扑灵扑灵的闪烁，看向了白玉阶梯上的曦曦。
"Grandma's little disciple! Come on, little Senior Sister Xixi, carry on, with Xuan Yue's gift, and keep going!"
Xuan Yue clenched her fists and said excitedly.
Although she suffered a lot of pain in the heart and nature test, she almost forgot about it the moment she turned around.
After Xuan Yue, another child prodigy woke up, causing the entire Daping to wail.
It was none other than Lu Qingxuan, the number one in the Young Dragon List.
Lu Qingxuan straightened his back and fell silent. He clenched his five fingers so tightly that his nails seemed to dig into his palms.
His performance in terms of talent is average, and his performance in terms of character is also average...
He was clearly the first in Qianyuan Divine Sect’s Young Dragon List, but why was everything in his name average? Was the first in Qianyuan Divine Sect’s Young Dragon List eliminated?
The atmosphere... became increasingly tense! Were they really going to let the two aliens enter the Zhenmiao Pass? ! Many of the Jianghu people who came from Qianyuan Daocheng had sweat in their palms.
Even under the white jade archway, the expressions of the many elders who had been calm and composed all this time changed slightly at this moment.
The great elder Fang Hanshu was still reading.
But the Second Elder Zhao Fangzhou and other elders couldn't help but look solemn when Lu Qingxuan was eliminated.
"Gongshu Wentian, Yun'e, Lü Chi, Li Nuanxi... they should be able to suppress Jin Taisui and Ao Qingqing, right?"
"How could these two alien races... last so long in the Heart and Nature Test?"
"If we really allow foreign races to enter the Zhenmiao Pass, it will be dangerous..."
"If the position of the young master of our Qianyuan Divine Sect is occupied by an alien race, the impact will be too great."
The blood and energy were roaring, and the muscles and bones of Martial Saint Elder Zhao Fangzhou were shaking. He could hardly sit still.
"Another child prodigy has awakened!"
"Who is it?"
"It's the little prince Lu Chi from the capital of the gods!"
Zhao Fangzhou pulled his beard and his eyes narrowed.
Inside the carriage in the big square, Mo Lao sighed, what a pity...
It was beyond Mo Lao's expectation that Lu Chi could hold on for so long.
It’s a pity that I couldn’t continue to persevere.
After Lü Chi, in almost two or three breaths...
Ao Qingqing collapsed on the white jade steps, sweating profusely and tears streaming down her face.
In her heart and soul test, she seemed to have replicated the life of the Dragon Queen's wife...
She suddenly understood her aunt, her pain, her madness, and her harshness towards herself...
She couldn't stop her tears from flowing, but in the end, she still disappointed her aunt.
She failed to make it to the next level.
Tears as big as beans fell one by one on the white jade steps.
Perhaps, her fate will be the same as her aunt's?
Suffocation and despair made it difficult for her to breathe and the light in her eyes disappeared.
She looked at Xixi. Her aunt wanted her to defeat Xixi, but... she really couldn't do it.
Looking at Xixi going through the test of her mind and nature, the corners of his lips curled up and a bright smile appeared on his face.
Why is she so happy? Why? Ao Qingqing is really envious.
Buzz——
Lu Chi and Ao Qingqing were also sent out of the Qiankun Small Cave.
Lu Chi's eyes were cold as he stood at the entrance of the Qiankun Small Cave. There was a flicker in his cold eyes, and a trace of pain surged.
I still can't forget...
He turned and left, getting into the carriage.
"Mr. Mo... let's go."
"Return to the capital."
"After all, I have disappointed the Imperial Master."
Lu Chi's calm voice resounded: "It's time for me to go back and face what I have to face..."
"Your Highness...you have done very well."
Mo Lao comforted.
"I will report your highness's performance to the Imperial Master truthfully..."
"Thank you, Mr. Mo."
The words have been spoken.
The driver pulled the reins and drove away from the mountain gate area of Qianyuan Shenzong without lingering.
Lu Taibai withdrew his gaze from the carriage.
At the same time, in Daping.
Li Qingshan sat on the shaft of the carriage and watched from afar the carriage that Lu Chi was riding in, which was galloping away in the wind and rain.
From the beginning to the end...
Lu Chi never even turned his head to look at his former master.
…
…
On the white jade stairs.
Only four child prodigies remained.
Gongshu Wentian, Jin Taisui, Li Nuanxi and Yun'e...
As long as one more person is eliminated, the three child prodigies who will advance to the third round will be decided! Who is it?
Who could it be?!
The spring rain roars and becomes more powerful.
Even Li Che couldn't help but open his eyes, and focused half of his mind on the picture reflected by the sword energy at the entrance of the Qiankun Small Cave.
The world was quiet.
The rain became heavier.
Suddenly.
There was a sound as if something was breaking.
Almost in an instant, Gongshu Wentian, who was sitting cross-legged on the white jade steps, suddenly trembled, and an expression of disbelief, fear and despair emerged on his face.
The next moment, he suddenly opened his eyes.
Breathing heavily.
He suddenly turned his head and looked in Xixi's direction.
In my mind...
He couldn't help but imagine the scene in Xinxingguan where he and Li Nuanxi were fighting a decisive battle.
Originally, Gongshu Wentian was going to defeat Li Nuanxi, suppress his inner demons, and clear his mind! But...
Li Nuanxi suddenly transformed!
His body was covered with enchanting black patterns, as if he had walked out of the underworld of mountains of corpses and seas of blood!
In a fantasy.
Gongshu Wentian felt that his legs were out of control, and it was as if the entire sky was being torn apart and smashed down upon him...
Gongshu Wentian was forced to kneel on the ground, without even the courage to resist.
fundamental……
Not opponents on the same level!
Xixi, who was cold and arrogant, glanced at him as if looking at a mayfly, and it was as if she pinched his soft heart hard.
Then, just a finger tap...
Just wipe him out.
When Gongshu Wentian woke up, he felt like he had had a terrible nightmare.
However, he had deep doubts in his mind.
no……
He had never seen Li Nuanxi in this state in real life!
Why would I face such a monster in the heart test?! Does reality always bully the honest people?! Li Nuanxi...
Who are you?!
Seven thousand words, the first update, a bit slow, I have been stuck on the writer's block for a long time, there will be one more update in the evening, Lao Li will take a break and continue writing, and try to finish it early tonight. Everyone please keep reading and don't stop, Lao Li thanks you!
