Chapter 124 Chapter 124 No response, no one survived...
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhaoxue immediately stepped forward, snatched the Blood Mirror away, and asked coldly, "What do you mean by possessing a body? Why are the disciples of the Spirit Sword Immortal Pavilion here?"
"Go out and talk."
Pei Zichen seemed to have anticipated this and remained exceptionally calm. He turned to look at Ye Tianjiao and asked, "Are all the people from Penglai here?"
"We've already arrived."
Ye Tianjiao nodded. Pei Zichen glanced at Jiang Zhaoxue and said, "Later."
As he spoke, Pei Zichen walked into the dark and straightened his clothes. His unhurried manner made Jiang Zhaoxue feel a little relieved.
She calmed down, her eyes fell on Ye Tianjiao, and she began to ask: "My father and brother are here? Who else is here?"
"Uncle is so righteous," Ye Tianjiao said, his eyes gleaming with joy. "Except for your mother who's in Penglai, all the elite soldiers from Penglai have come here, saying they'll help me build the Crossing Resentment Pond. Your brother has some talent for talismans; if he's given more time, he'll catch up with me."
Hearing this, Jiang Zhaoxue rolled her eyes and continued to ask, "What about the Crossing Resentment Pond? How is the construction going?"
"It will take at least seven days to finish," Ye Tianjiao said, frowning, "but now..."
Before he finished speaking, Pei Zichen walked out. He changed into a gorgeous dress that seemed to have been prepared for a long time. It was not much different from his usual attire, but he looked much more noble.
The clothes were neat and tidy, without any texture. Ye Tianjiao looked at them and blurted out, "People who are going to see the father-in-law are different."
Pei Zichen looked at him coldly after hearing what he said, but ignored him and turned around and said, "Let's go."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and turned it, and a light gate appeared in front of him. After stepping into the light gate with Jiang Zhaoxue and Ye Tianjiao, they walked out and found themselves in a room.
Jiang Pingsheng, Jiang Zhaoyue, Qingye, and the others were all in the room. As soon as the spiritual energy fluctuations began, everyone looked over. Seeing Jiang Zhaoxue suddenly appear, everyone was stunned for a moment. Qingye became excited and hurried forward: "Lady!"
Jiang Zhaoxue and Qingye nodded, then bowed to Jiang Pingsheng first: "Father."
Then, she turned to look at Jiang Zhaoyue: "Brother."
As he spoke, Pei Zichen followed him up and saluted Jiang Pingsheng nervously, "Island Master Jiang."
After saying this, he saluted Jiang Zhaoyue again: "Young Master Jiang."
He moved respectfully, just like the young disciple of Lingjian Immortal Pavilion.
Jiang Pingsheng and Jiang Zhaoyue looked at each other. Jiang Pingsheng coughed and said awkwardly, "Well, there's no need to be so polite. If you don't mind, why not call me..."
Before Jiang Pingsheng could even utter the word "Dad", Jiang Zhaoyue said, "Uncle."
Jiang Pingsheng froze in place. Jiang Zhaoyue looked at Pei Zichen coldly, "When Yaoyao brought your body back to Penglai, Penglai accepted you as their son-in-law."
"elder brother……"
Jiang Zhaoxue smiled awkwardly: "How about we talk about business first..."
"But if you want to change your ways and enter my Penglai family, you still have to follow certain rules. The three letters and six ceremonies, the betrothal, the wedding ceremony, and the announcement to the world are all essential. Now we are just ordinary allies. You can call me brother, or you can call me dad or uncle, but don't call me anything else."
As soon as Jiang Zhaoyue opened his mouth, the atmosphere in the room became solemn.
Only Pei Zichen stood there without being servile or overbearing, and said respectfully and seriously: "Brother is right."
Pei Zichen's attitude was good, and Jiang Zhaoyue's expression eased a little. He nodded and said, "Let's not talk about this for now, let's get down to business."
"What happened to Shen Yuqing?"
Jiang Zhaoxue immediately asked, "What does it mean that he was possessed?"
"Let the disciples of the Spirit Sword Immortal Pavilion speak on this matter."
Jiang Pingsheng listened and glanced outside the door. Qingye immediately went out and brought over a person dressed as a disciple of the Lingjian Immortal Pavilion.
The disciple had obviously come in a hurry, and there was blood on his body. Jiang Zhaoxue looked at him with some surprise: "Zi Lu?"
This was the disciple accompanying Shen Yuqing. Upon hearing Jiang Zhaoxue's voice, Zi Lu raised his head, tears welling in his eyes as he excitedly said, "Master's Wife!"
"Ahem," Jiang Zhaoxue felt a little embarrassed when she heard this, but she didn't want to cause any more trouble at this time, so she asked directly, "What's wrong with your master?"
"Master's Wife," Zi Lu said calmly as she listened to Jiang Zhaoxue asking about Shen Yuqing. "This story begins two months ago. Master returned to the Spirit Sword Immortal Pavilion and secretly began sending disciples to Penglai one after another under the guise of outbound missions. I was responsible for arranging this for Master. At the same time, Master gave me a teleportation talisman, saying that if anything happened to him, I should flee to Penglai immediately. Three days ago, I was packing my things in my room when a blood-stained mirror suddenly appeared in my room. I knew something was wrong and immediately used the teleportation talisman to leave. As soon as I activated the talisman, Master Liu's flying sword flew straight into my room. If I had hesitated for a moment, I would have died in the Spirit Sword Immortal Pavilion by now!"
Zilu spoke excitedly.
Jiang Zhaoxue listened and nodded: "I roughly know about this matter, so why do you say he took over someone else's body?"
"It's the image in that mirror."
Ye Tianjiao reminded him, and Pei Zichen raised his hand and pushed the blood mirror. A picture immediately appeared in the mirror. Shen Yuqing was lying on the ground covered in blood, and a woman was walking barefoot in the blood, slowly walking towards him.
"Shen Yuqing, Shen Yuqing, who do you think you are?"
As she spoke, the woman half-knelt down and lifted his chin: "Since you killed me, you owe me a life. Your life is mine, how can you think about others?"
As she spoke, black mist filled the mirror. The woman said with a smile, "If you don't want to be my dog, why not give me this body? It will be like giving back what you borrowed. You will be with me forever, and I will forgive you for killing me back then."
The moment the sound fell, the entire mirror surface surged with black energy, accompanied by Shen Yuqing's roar: "Silla Clothes!!"
Then the image on the mirror disappeared, and the mirror with blood stains fell to the ground.
Everyone looked at each other, and Jiang Zhaoxue was shocked. Then he realized: "Silla Yi took over his body? Why?"
After finishing speaking, Jiang Zhaoxue suddenly realized something, and saw Ye Tianjiao's expression solemnly said: "Shen Yuqing is a person with great luck. If nothing unexpected happens, he can also achieve enlightenment and ascend to heaven."
"Although he used his luck to pray for a destined marriage, that marriage thread was severed, so the Book of Destiny didn't take away his luck. His body still has the qualifications to become a god." Pei Zichen then explained, "The Book of Destiny is a divine artifact. If he wants to break through the restrictions of Lord Hao Cang, besides becoming a god himself, another way is to form a pact with another god and let that other god use it."
"To create a god, one needs a divine core, a divine shell, and a physical body. Silla Yi is the product of Li Xiuji's flesh and blood. She carries the blood of a demigod. If she had a physical body..."
"That's impossible for her to become a god," Jiang Zhaoxue said firmly, unable to understand, "Even if she took over Shen Yuqing's body..."
"But he might have created a false god."
Jiang Pingsheng spoke and Jiang Zhaoxue was stunned.
Pei Zichen reminded him, "Just like how Tian Yan Teng mistook Xin Luoyi for Li Xiuji, when she possessed Li Xiuji's bloodline, she possessed the ability to pass herself off as a deity. She is not a god, and she does not have the power of a god, but as long as she can disguise herself and deceive the layers of restrictions of the divine artifact, and the spirit of the Book of Destiny voluntarily recognizes her, she can use the Book of Destiny."
"Then why didn't Song Wulan turn himself into a god?" Jiang Zhaoxue couldn't understand. "Once Song Wulan had a physical body, he became an independent person. He repeatedly tried to intercept us using the power of this physical body. So why can't he turn himself into a false god and use the Book of Destiny?"
"A fabricated god is an evil way of cultivation." Jiang Pingsheng shook his head. "Any way that goes against the principles of cause and effect cannot possibly become a righteous god. Even if it becomes a god one day, it will still be an evil god."
But the Book of Destiny is unwilling to become an evil god.
It wants to become a righteous god that dominates the world forever.
I want to become a god like Lord Haocang, who is loved and worshipped by everyone.
Jiang Zhaoxue suddenly understood Song Wulan's mentality.
He wants his hands to be clean and he wants others to do all the dirty work for him.
He used Zhuang Yan's soul to lure Ye Wenzhi, used Concubine Zhao to drive Song Wuya crazy, and used the followers of the Paradise Eternal Life Sect formed by Xin Luoyi and Song Wulan to do all kinds of evil things.
It was a mortal who built the blood pool, and it was Xinluoyi who absorbed the power. She was the only person Song Wulan had ever attacked.
Everyone makes their own choices, and everyone is driven by fate, but Song Wulan's hands are clean and not involved in cause and effect.
So to this day, he wants to put all the blame on Silla Yi.
Xin Luoyi took over Shen Yuqing's body and became a false god. Xin Luoyi used the Book of Destiny to do everything, and he just waited for everyone to die and reap the merit, luck and power.
"Why is Silla Yi willing?" Jiang Zhaoxue frowned, "Hasn't she ever thought about her future..."
"She believes that power is more important than morality," Ye Tianjiao sighed and said helplessly, "Island Master Jiang believes that those who violate the principles of cause and effect cannot become gods, but Xin Luoyi believes that evil gods are still gods. As long as they are evil enough, the laws of nature don't matter."
Ye Tianjiao knocked his head helplessly and said seriously: "Don't think she looks normal, but her brain is like this, so she can work hard for a thousand years without stopping."
"No wonder she can be a perpetual motion machine..."
Anan murmured, using a word he saw from Jiang Zhaoxue's mind.
Jiang Zhaoxue closed her eyes in pain and began to think desperately: "Then it would take a lot of strength for Pei Zichen's divine shell to merge with his body, but it wouldn't require that for Xin Luoyi to possess his body?"
"use."
Jiang Pingsheng spoke without hesitation.
Jiang Zhaoxue frowned. "Then how will she merge? How soon will she be able to completely take over Shen Yuqing's body and use the Book of Destiny?"
"One day."
Ye Tianjiao spoke in a deep voice. Jiang Zhaoxue was incredulous: "One day?"
"Pei Zichen's fusion is difficult because his flesh can't bear his power as a god. He must forge his flesh into a divine body during the fusion process." Ye Tianjiao said patiently, "But Xinluoyi is just a fake painted on. She just needs to deceive the restrictions of the Book of Destiny. As a soul, she entered Shen Yuqing's body. Shen Yuqing's body can fully bear her power. There is no obstacle for them to merge."
"So," Jiang Zhaoxue pondered, "Shen Yuqing had an accident three days ago. He should have already merged with Xin Luoyi the day before yesterday. Xin Luoyi could already use the Book of Destiny. The spiritual power of the Book of Destiny connects the entire world. It can absorb the power of the entire True Fairyland..."
Jiang Zhaoxue muttered, and suddenly stopped.
Seeing her sudden silence, everyone turned to look over. Qingye saw Jiang Zhaoxue's expression and subconsciously felt a little scared. He stammered, "Lady...Lady?"
"So what have they been doing these past two days?"
Jiang Zhaoxue looked at him in confusion, and everyone was stunned.
Jiang Zhaoxue suddenly remembered and looked at Zilu: "When did you come to the Nine Nether Realm?"
"Last night?" Zi Lu murmured, "After I used the teleportation talisman to leave the Spirit Sword Immortal Pavilion, I blocked all my spiritual energy and fled all the way. I only contacted Young Master Jiang yesterday. When Young Master Jiang found me, he immediately brought me to the Nine Netherworld Realm."
Penglai and Jiuyoujing have now established a teleportation array that can reach the territories of both parties in a short time.
Jiang Zhaoxue listened and continued, "So you set out from Penglai last night?"
Jiang Zhaoxue turned to look at Jiang Zhaoyue and said, "Brother, have you contacted mother since entering the Nine Netherworld Realm?"
"Why contact me in the middle of the night?"
Ye Tianjiao couldn't figure it out, but Jiang Zhaoyue's face changed drastically. He immediately started to contact Dong Huaiyu. However, after sending several messages, not only was there no response, there was not even any fluctuation of spiritual power.
Logically speaking, the essence of sound transmission is the transmission of spiritual power. Once it reaches an area, even if the other party does not respond, it will disrupt the fluctuation of spiritual power in that area. Unless that area disappears completely and there is no spiritual power, the cultivator will be able to feel the interference between the spiritual power he sends and other spiritual powers.
However, Jiang Zhaoyue's spiritual power suddenly disappeared after entering the Penglai realm, and was lost in the sea.
Jiang Zhaoyue's face turned pale instantly, and he subconsciously looked at Jiang Pingsheng: "Father..."
Jiang Pingsheng's expression grew serious, and he heard Jiang Zhaoyue, trying to remain calm, but her voice was still a little trembling as she said, "I sent a telepathic message, but I couldn't sense Penglai."
Everyone present had a different expression when they heard this.
Jiang Zhaoxue immediately raised his hands and formed seals, then calmly said, "Heaven has summoned you. Send word to all 347 sects in Central Continent."
There are numerous sects of all sizes in Zhongzhou, and there are a total of 347 sects recorded in the Immortal Alliance Book.
As soon as Jiang Zhaoxue said this, more than 300 spiritual power messages flew out like streams of light. She closed her eyes, sensing the spiritual power flying all the way to Zhongzhou, falling like rain on the Zhongzhou continent in the True Fairyland.
However, from a distance, the Central Continent, which was originally surrounded by spiritual energy and looked like a brightly lit continent, was now dark.
Jiang Zhaoxue's spiritual power flew down, but the moment it landed in Zhongzhou, it sank like falling into mud and disappeared.
No response.
No response.
No response.
The whole world was completely quiet, and the Nine Netherworld was like a lone boat sailing alone in the dark night of the apocalypse, with no one else seeming except them.
No one survived.
