As the evil energy in his body dissipated, Ming Qing began to age rapidly.
First, her hair. Her shiny black hair turned silver in an instant, and the skin on her face quickly became dry and wrinkled.
As for her body, it became hunched, skinny and thin in an instant.
Her skin lost its elasticity in an instant, and even age spots appeared in some places.
Ming Qing fell to the ground weakly, she felt her life slipping away quickly.
She stared at the trident unwillingly, a tear falling from the corner of her eye.
She was just one step away from success, but she was unwilling to give up. She really was unwilling to give up!
The three-pointed knife stood there, inviolable.
Now she has completely lost the qualification to possess power.
The tears in Ming Qing's eyes became more and more violent, and her vision became blurred.
She has given up so much to get to where she is today, why does God have to play such a joke on her?
"So this is why you abandoned your companions?" Qin Feng walked over without knowing why. She lowered her head and looked at Ming Qing. "To gain power? And then? What was your purpose in gaining power?"
Ming Qing turned to look at her, tears in her eyes. She stared at Qin Feng for a long time. How long had it been since he had looked at her up close?
She can't remember.
Ming Qing felt bitter in his heart, closed his eyes and said: "In order to resurrect my father, as long as I obtain supreme power, I can resurrect him... But now, I can't do it."
Her voice was old and hoarse, full of powerlessness.
Qin Feng curled her lips in disappointment. After hearing these words from Ming Qing's mouth with her own ears, she finally gave up.
What was she expecting just now?
Do you expect Ming Qing to say something like "to protect everyone"?
No, the Ming and Qing dynasties are no longer the Ming and Qing dynasties of the past. Only she herself remains in the past.
Qin Feng stopped looking at her and turned to walk towards the trident.
Now it seems that this so-called "magic weapon" also seems to have unknown secrets, so take it back first.
"You can't touch it!" Ming Qing suddenly became excited and even supported herself with her elbows to try to get up from the ground, but she was weak all over and her struggle was in vain.
Qin Feng ignored her.
"Don't touch it!" Ming Qing shouted anxiously, "I'm willing to tell you a secret, as long as you don't touch it!"
Qin Feng paused and looked back at Ming Qing, "You say."
Ming Qing stared at her intently, "Promise me first that you will never touch it."
Qin Feng didn't understand what he meant, but he still did as he was told. "Okay, I promise. What's the secret you want to tell me?"
Ming Qing smiled with relief. She pointed at Meng Qingyin with difficulty and said, "I will only tell her this secret."
Qin Feng frowned: "Ming Qing, what exactly do you want to do?"
Ming Qing didn't answer her, but just looked at Meng Qingyin with a trace of guilt in his eyes.
Meng Qingyin came over, but Qin Feng said, "Mingqing, you are already at the end of your strength. Don't play tricks on us."
She was worried that Ming Qing would hurt someone.
Although she was in such a state that she even had difficulty raising her hands, she had to be on guard.
Ming Qing laughed again, and tears started to flow down his face. "You think too highly of me."
At this point, she won't live much longer.
Meng Qingyin told Qin Feng not to worry about her and squatted in front of Ming Qing: "What do you want to tell me?"
Qin Feng consciously took a few steps back.
Ming Qing leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Do you want to know the real reason why I took the three-pointed knife?"
Meng Qingyin looked down at her, her eyes darkening: "Isn't it to save your father?"
"Do you believe it?" Ming Qing asked back.
Meng Qingyin said firmly, "That's just your excuse. The real reason you took the trident was to protect everyone."
With Ming Qing's strength, she could have killed them many times just now, but she didn't.
Moreover, he had just accepted the defeat and was ready to die, but when Qin Feng was about to take the trident, he suddenly became emotional.
She thought that perhaps anyone who came into contact with the trident would become its "host".
The Ming and Qing dynasties are the best examples of the fate of becoming a "host".
So, she didn't let Qin Feng touch the trident.
However, Meng Qingyin didn’t understand why Ming Qing only told her this secret?
Ming Qing looked at her admiringly: "You are smarter than I thought. You are worthy of being the next host chosen by the Three-pointed Knife."
Meng Qingyin was shocked.
Ming Qing smiled bitterly: "Don't look at me in shock. It was the Three-pointed Knife who chose you. I don't want more people to be involved than anyone else."
"You know what? Ever since I read that book, I've lived in fear every day. The images are so shocking. Those alien creatures will ruthlessly trample on our homeland, and everyone will die at their hands. The only way to change the ending is the Tower of Babel."
Meng Qingyin knew without hesitation that the "book" Ming Qing was talking about was "The Tower".
Ming Qing fell into memories and Meng Qingyin did not interrupt her.
"The book says that the key to our victory is the trident. When the trident absorbs sufficient demonic energy, it becomes unstoppable, possessing the power to destroy everything. But it is only a weapon, and only humans can wield it. Those who wield it will gain its supreme power and become extremely powerful, but the price is their own life."
"Uncle Qin died from the evil energy before he could become its host, and my father... he was the previous host of the Three-pointed Blade. He was killed by the backlash of the power. I am the only one who knows this secret, only weak me!"
Her voice was filled with pain. "He left the trident in the magic tower. I must retrieve the trident and become its new host! I'm too weak. It's hard for me to survive if I enter the magic tower alone, let alone retrieve the trident."
