Chapter 112
On the north side of Beiming Island, spider-web-like dark cracks crisscrossed the sky, filled with a violent and cold aura.
Even within the protective formation of the Qingmiao Sect far away in Jiuli Continent, one could vaguely sense the chaotic turmoil.
Jiang Suiyan sat on a smooth and flat boulder on Qiumu Peak, his expression calm, his eyes slightly closed. The gilded spiritual pattern on his forehead shone brightly, dotted with a bright red mole, emitting a faint spiritual light, which made his colorful face even more captivating.
Next to him crouched a large, sleek, majestic black dog, its eyes blazing as it vigilantly observed its surroundings. It was obvious that if anyone attempted to harm its young master, it would immediately rush forward and bite.
The golden sunlight fell softly, illuminating Jiang Suiyan, who was sitting quietly with his eyes closed, with a layer of light golden light, making him look like a statue sitting high on a cloud platform, without any sadness or joy.
Suddenly, the big black dog stood up, looked towards the foot of Qiumu Peak with sharp eyes, and raised its ears high.
"He's a disciple of the Qing Miao Sect." Jiang Suiyan opened his dark eyes at some point and reached out to gently rub the furry head of the big black dog: "It's okay, Dahei, don't be nervous."
The big black dog finally relaxed and slowly lay down beside his little master.
Jiang Sui Yan lowered his eyes and looked at the Qing Miao Sect disciples who were supporting each other on the mountain path.
They were wearing the attire of inner disciples, their hair was disheveled, their foreheads were covered in sweat, and they looked very disheveled.
There was a formation on the Qiumu Peak, and nothing could be seen or heard from the outside. In addition, Jiang Suiyan was already a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, so these inner disciples who had just established their foundation did not notice his sight.
"Alas, just a few demonic beasts have put us in such a mess. If it weren't for the timely help of our senior brother who was watching over us, we would probably be receiving treatment from the medical practitioners right now..." A disciple sighed, "Immortal Master Ming Yan is still in a stalemate with the great demon of the Tianji Clan, and we are so useless."
"Feng Ji, this time it was our fault for being careless and unprepared. We just need to be more careful next time. There's no need to be so pessimistic." Another disciple consoled him, "Immortal Master Ming Yan and the Tianji Clan leader are both in the Tribulation Crossing Stage. Fights at their level wouldn't be accessible to even the elders of the sect, let alone us. Let's just focus on what we have at hand."
Feng Ji's expression gradually improved: "You're right... I'm just a little worried..."
"I know." The disciple sighed. "I'm worried about the situation in the northern sky. But now that things have come to this, let's trust Immortal Master Ming Yan."
Several disciples supported each other as they walked away, their figures gradually fading.
Jiang Sui Yan withdrew his gaze.
"Woof?" The big black dog raised its head and gently licked its little master's soft cheek.
"Dahei, I still haven't found a way to enter the pitch-black space." Jiang Suiyan hugged the big black dog and said in a confused tone: "I always feel that there is something very important in there..."
The big black dog patted its little master's arm with its tail as if to comfort him.
Jiang Suiyan looked at the dark and depressing sky of Beimingzhou, and his eyes gradually became firm.
Now, his brother is on the battlefield, Shao Jishuang is far away in Xihe City, and Chu Junning and Yu Hongze's training has not yet ended.
He was alone, feeling restless in the peace that his brother's flesh and blood supported.
But no matter what, he must not give up.
Jiang Sui Yan smoothed the hair on Dahei's neck, then gently pushed Dahei outward.
The big black dog lay back down meekly.
"Dahei, I will try again - until I succeed." Jiang Suiyan's dark, clear eyes were as bright as stars, brilliant and tenacious.
The big black dog looked at its little master tenderly: "Woo woof..."
*
Invisible threads sway gently, countless stars hanging in the distant sky. A gentle breeze carries the threads away, stretching into the vast distance...
Found it.
Jiang Suiyan's heart trembled.
He has failed countless times, and this time, he must not return empty-handed.
The silk thread transformed from spiritual consciousness seemed to be docilely allowed to be surrounded by the breeze, but at a certain moment, it suddenly rose up and forcefully broke into the closed space.
Jiang Suiyan had always entered the dark space unconsciously in his sleep. This was the first time he entered it on his own initiative, and therefore, Jiang Suiyan noticed some details that he had usually overlooked.
His body remained in the same place, and from the outside, there seemed nothing unusual. But in reality, his soul had already left his body, transforming into a wisp of green light and lightly disappearing into an unknown, distant and hidden space.
The space welcomed him very familiarly, like old friends meeting each other. There was no need for words, as they had a tacit understanding.
The familiar darkness surged, and Jiang Suiyan quietly looked at the dark area in front of him with a calm and indifferent expression.
"Little Immortality Wood." A hoarse male voice sounded, full of calmness and composure.
Jiang Suiyan's eyebrows jumped: "Xuanchen?"
Xuan Chen: "It's me."
Jiang Suiyan was even more confused: "Why don't you call me 'little troublemaker' anymore?"
In a split second, he suddenly realized something: "Someone is next to you? Who is it?"
Jiang Suiyan's tone gradually became urgent: "It's related to the truth you have been hiding, right? The situation in the Qianyuan Realm is critical now. Don't hide it from me anymore."
Xuan Chen paused, thinking of the parent next to him, and couldn't help but feel a headache: "There are some things I really don't know, and I'm not deliberately hiding it..."
"Let me say it." A voice sounded, and Xuanchen silently swallowed the unfinished words.
How to describe this sound?
The moment I heard it, it seemed as if the vicissitudes of time were flowing silently, with high banks and deep valleys, the changing world, the movement of the sun and the moon, the replacement of the stars, it was grand and vast, compassionate but also ruthless.
"...Heaven's Way?" Jiang Suiyan whispered, "The answer I'm looking for that can help my brother, is it you?"
Tiandao: Sen*wan*tidi* “No.”
"I am the embodiment of the law and cannot interfere with worldly affairs."
Jiang Suiyan's black eyelashes drooped slightly: "So?"
"You are the only one who can help Jiang Mingyan." Tiandao said calmly: "Changshengmu, go and retrieve the fragments of your lost soul. The answers you want are all there."
A small world lit up in the pitch-black space, with a cute little green velvet tree floating quietly in the center, exuding vitality.
Jiang Sui Yan pursed his lips and stopped asking questions.
With a thought, he appeared in front of the small tree.
Jiang Suiyan reached out and touched the leaves lightly.
The next moment, the world was spinning.
*
Jiang Sui Yan woke up in chaos and saw five round and plump balls of light.
He immediately recognized that the green ball was himself, the gold ball was his brother, and the red ball was Shao Jishuang.
…
The green ball is the most lively, always circling around the cool gold ball.
Jintuan gradually got used to this little follower and took Qingtuan under his protection. When other Tuanzi were fighting, he would hold down the clumsy but eager Qingtuan to prevent him from being affected.
The red ball likes to follow the green ball happily.
When the gold group wasn't paying attention, the green group was abducted by the red group.
Every time after being covered in mottled spiritual energy in the chaos, the green ball would timidly rub against the golden ball to admit its mistake.
Then, Jintuan would mutter some non-intimidating warnings while working tirelessly to remove the mottled spiritual power from Qingtuan.
The days in chaos are peaceful and warm.
Jiang Sui Yan watched silently.
He is a spectator and also an eyewitness.
…
After an unknown amount of time, the chaos became turbulent and the outlines of heaven and earth appeared.
The spiritual light outside the five light balls dissipated, and their true nature gradually emerged.
The green ball is a small, round tree with green velvet, the golden ball is a gorgeous and sharp sword, the red ball is a shining lamp, the black ball is a shiny black jade bead, and the yellow ball is the simple and thick soil.
They fell into a deep sleep.
Several years later, the ancestor of the spirit race was born from the spiritual energy and brought back the five sacred artifacts from the chaos and enshrined them in the clan's land.
Many years later, the Tianji clan leader began to have wild ambitions. The Ling clan was flooded with blood and the Linghai fell silent overnight.
The dormant holy artifact was moved into the Tianji clan's temple.
Time slowly moved forward for tens of thousands of years.
The two Eldar girls looked at the holy artifact that had been guarded by the Eldar for many years, their eyes filled with unyielding faith and vigorous vitality.
The Taiyuan Sword was awakened by them.
After he helped them escape from the Tianji Clan, he fell into a deep sleep again.
More than a decade later, Heaven finally had a chance to intervene in worldly affairs.
Thus, the sacred vessel became the soul, and Jiang Mingyan was born.
Jiang Mingyan grew up with many difficulties after losing his parents. He restored his spiritual roots, re-entered the immortal path, and step by step became the ruthless swordsman Mingyan Daojun.
When the Tianji clan's conspiracy was exposed, he entered the Chiri Secret Realm under the guidance of the second prince of the demon clan and learned the truth.
He is the self-rescue act of Heaven and the savior chosen by Heaven for the Qianyuan Realm.
That's ridiculous.
Jiang Mingyan thought, he grew up in misery and was unmoved by the pleas of various ethnic groups - how could such a person save the world?
He is alone, walking alone, and has no worries. What does this world have to do with him?
However, when he recalled the silly and soft green dumpling in the chaos, he finally softened his heart.
If the stupid dumpling wakes up from his slumber and sees the world destroyed and the realm shattered... he will be scared.
Jiang Mingyan finally embarked on the road to salvation.
The patriarch of the Tianji tribe lived for too long. Jiang Mingyan gave up the flesh and blood body given by his parents, and only after breaking the sword blade did he win.
…
Jiang Sui Yan looked at the changing scene in front of him with a gloomy look.
The sacred artifact was transformed from the origin of the Qianyuan Realm. When the chaos faded, it was difficult for them to stay awake in this world with so many living beings and complex auras.
My brother is the most powerful among all the holy weapons, so he was able to respond to the instigation of my mother and aunt and help them escape from the Tianji clan.
Later, God found a way to give his brother a body of flesh and blood, so that he could grow up as Jiang Mingyan.
Therefore, when 'Jiang Sui Yan' in the picture was awakened by his brother's rapidly falling breath, everything was already settled.
The patriarch of the Tianji clan has passed away, and the crisis of the Qianyuan world's destruction has been resolved.
However, Jiang Mingyan, who was part of the origin of the Qianyuan Realm, was seriously injured and nearly died, and the battle with the leader of the Tianji Clan inevitably affected too many people...
'Jiang Sui Yan' proposed to the Heavenly Dao to restart the world.
The awakened 'Shao Jishuang' stood beside 'Jiang Suiyan' and moved forward and backward with him.
Tiandao finally agreed with their idea.
In order to preserve his memories and avoid being assimilated into the restarted world, Jiang Suiyan separated his soul and hid it in a dark space that only a sacred object could enter.
The dark space has limited bearing capacity. Although Shao Jishuang felt sorry for Jiang Suiyan having to experience the pain of soul tearing apart, he still respected Jiang Suiyan's choice and gave up the opportunity.
When the world restarted, the Qianyuan Realm touched another world for a moment.
The soul fragments left by Jiang Suiyan in the dark space were pulled into that world in an instant.
The tall buildings and the hustle and bustle of traffic are completely different from the Qianyuan Realm.
In the eyes of the Heavenly Dao, the momentary intersection quickly ended, and the fragments of Jiang Suiyan's soul returned to the dark space when that world separated from the Qianyuan Realm.
But for the soul fragment of 'Jiang Sui Yan', he wandered in that world for several years and even met a friend who could see souls.
Everything in the Qianyuan Realm was transformed into words and written on paper.
Then, when the soul fragments returned to the dark space, a huge light curtain was formed silently.
Having expended so much energy to restart the world, the Heavenly Dao could hardly offer any assistance to Jiang Suiyan and Shao Jishuang. All that was left was for them to be awakened by Yun Zhaoming and Jingjia, brought out of the Tianji Clan, and then provided Jiang Suiyan with the opportunity to transform his soul into a sacred artifact. Shao Jishuang, through the auras of Jingjia, the Second Prince of the Demon Clan, and Fengxun Daojun, was forcibly transformed into a human form.
*
"The various tribes in the Qianyuan Realm discovered the dead city eight years in advance and strengthened their defenses, which resulted in fewer deaths than the original time point." Tiandao comforted Jiang Suiyan, who had been gloomy and silent after obtaining soul fragments and regaining his memory.
"Yes, little Changshengmu, don't overthink it. You've done well. No one could have imagined that the rebooted world would forbid you from recalling the memories stored in your soul fragments." Xuanchen, who had learned what had happened from Tiandao, consoled him, "Fortunately, Tiandao has accumulated some power, allowing you to merge with your soul fragments."
Jiang Suiyan remained unmoved, his expression still cold and solemn: "I'm going out now."
Tiandao knew that he had a plan in mind, so he didn't say anything more. He stopped Xuanchen who was about to say something and let Jiang Suiyan's soul return to his body.
…
"Woo woof!" The little master, who had closed his eyes for a long time, finally opened his eyes, and the big black dog wagged its tail wildly with excitement.
Jiang Suiyan stroked Dahei's furry head and looked towards the increasingly dense cracks in the Beiming Continent sky. Worry flashed across his eyes. "Dahei, how long has it been?"
"It's been nearly three hours." A familiar gentle voice sounded.
Jiang Suiyan was surprised: "Shao Jishuang?!"
The bloodshot-eyed boy looked at the fur ball in a white robe as white as snow, his eyes gentle: "Sui Sui."
His brother and Shao Jishuang were the people Jiang Suiyan trusted the most. Therefore, he didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "Shao Jishuang, I have a way to help my brother."
"I need you."
Shao Jishuang was startled for a moment, then immediately turned serious: "Sui Sui, what do you need me to do?"
"Let's go to Donglu City..." Jiang Suiyan's eyes were sharp: "No! Let's go to Linghai, quickly!"
Shao Jishuang didn't question it. He completely trusted Mao Tuantuan: "I'll go prepare it right away..."
"We'll take you there." The calm voice extinguished the irritability that had always been burning in Jiang Suiyan's heart.
He looked up.
Taoist Feng Xun was holding a young man with blood-stained collar, and Taoist Ming Ruo was beside him.
"It's still in time." The young man with blood on his clothes smiled and looked at Jiang Suiyan, full of comfort: "Sui Sui, I've calculated it, don't be afraid."
Jiang Suiyan looked at his pale face and pursed his lips. He didn't need to ask why Daojun Fengxun and Daojun Mingruo arrived so promptly. "Tang Jiu, thank you."
"Go quickly." Tang Jiu chuckled, took out his jade fan, and opened it with a swish: "I'll help you take care of Dahei."
*
Taoist Master Feng Xun and Taoist Master Ming Ruo each brought their own disciples and rushed to the Spirit Sea at an extremely fast speed.
There was no need to say much at this time. Jiang Suiyan and Shao Jishuang saluted their teachers and immediately jumped into the spiritual sea.
Jiang Suiyan had the Yang Zhenwang Youfu wrapped around his wrist, which had caught his brother off guard and faced the thunder tribulation. The strange and clear waters of the Linghai avoided him.
They successfully reached the deep seabed.
An invisible barrier protected the Mirror Flower and Water Moon. Jiang Suiyan knocked on the barrier "Bang bang bang" and said, "Yueyue! Spirit! I have something to ask you——"
Shao Jishuang shouted with him, and the seabed shook.
The soft light gradually brightened, and the spirit of the weapon spoke in a childish voice: "Sui Sui?"
"It's me." Jiang Suiyan said quickly but clearly, "We need to go to Donglu City to find the other two holy artifacts. The Tianji Clan guards the holy artifacts very closely, and time is running out. Yueyue, you have a way to get us to the holy artifacts, right?"
The interrogative sentence was expressed in a declarative tone, with a decisive and decisive tone.
"...Yes." The spirit's voice gradually lost its innocence, revealing a mature and steady tone: "Take it."
The spirit of the weapon handed a crystal half the length of a finger joint to Jiang Suiyan's hand: "Drop a drop of blood essence on it."
Jiang Sui Yan did as he was told.
"You will see pillars of white light, each representing an altar built by the Eldar."
Jiang Sui Yan saw countless beams of light rising from the ground, their tops hidden in the clouds.
"Concentrate your attention. Those beams of light will slowly converge into a blood-red beam. Let the blood-red beam of light envelop you, and it will carry you to the holy artifact..."
As the last sound faded away, Jiang Suiyan and Shao Jishuang disappeared from the spot.
The spirit of the weapon sighed softly, and the light in the mirror flowers and water moons gradually dimmed.
The seabed returned to calm again.
…
In a flash, the Tianji clan temple that he had seen in Aunt Jingjia's fantasy appeared before his eyes.
Jiang Sui Yan held Shao Jishuang's hand and looked up at the black jade beads and thick soil offered above.
A green light shone from the jade-white fingertips, and black jade beads and thick soil floated up from the gorgeous and exquisite shrine and floated in front of Jiang Suiyan.
"Shao Jishuang." Jiang Suiyan looked at his lover.
Love overflowed from Shao Jishuang's bloodshot eyes. He took a few steps forward, held Mao Tuantuan's face, and gently placed a kiss full of cherishment and tenderness on Mao Tuantuan's eyebrows.
"Sui Sui, I'm always by your side." He chuckled in the illusory flames.
Jiang Suiyan held the blazing lamp, his eyebrows and eyes were gentle, like the bright moon hanging high in the sky, bright and pure: "I know."
…
Carrying the three holy artifacts, Jiang Suiyan walked out of the temple.
This majestic and magnificent city built by the Tianji Clan has long been occupied by death. A translucent barrier heavily covers the air, blocking all information.
The only living thing Jiang Suiyan saw was Wu Chen.
The usually arrogant young man in white was now covered in blood and his clothes were stained with dust.
He was dying and was just holding on to his last breath.
When he saw Jiang Suiyan, his dull eyes lit up: "It's Wu Ci!"
Wu Ci is the name of the patriarch of the Tianji tribe.
"In order to gain supremacy over all living beings, ha, he even refuses to give up on his own people..."
"Kill him! Kill him—"
Wu Chen died with hatred in his heart.
Jiang Suiyan paused slightly, unable to express his emotion, and continued to rush to the battlefield in silence.
…
"Give up, you're no match for me." Wu Ci looked at the young swordsman whose black clothes were soaked in blood, and said with admiration, "You've only been in the Tribulation Crossing Stage for a few days, yet you've been able to hold out against me for so long..."
"I will leave you with an intact body."
"Ugly people often do evil—" The arrogant young man's voice rushed into the battlefield: "We will not leave you with a complete body."
A snow-white dress was reflected in Jiang Mingyan's eyes, and his expression changed slightly. He was proud and worried at the same time, and extremely complicated emotions were entangled in his mind.
Wu Ci's expression remained unchanged, as if he was looking at an ignorant junior: "Children are always arrogant."
"Heh." Jiang Suiyan gave him a mocking look, then rushed towards his brother: "Brother——"
Three rays of spiritual light cut through the cracked sky and landed in front of the black-clothed swordsman.
Wu Ci's expression suddenly changed.
Jiang Sui Yan didn't have the heart to pay attention to him anymore.
He followed closely behind the three rays of spiritual light, his whole body emitting a clear green light, and he turned into a round and lovely little tree, landing on his brother's palm covered with thin calluses.
"By the way, brother, Shao Jishuang and I are in love——"
At the last moment of his human form, the young man with beautiful eyes and eyebrows smiled cunningly.
Since I tried so hard to come and support you, please don't blame me~
The black-clothed swordsman's expression was extremely wonderful for a moment.
Oh, I should have looked at it more.
Before falling asleep, Jiang Sui Yan thought regretfully.
*
"Why aren't you awake yet?"
"It's almost here, probably in the next few days."
…
The sound of conversation gradually became clearer in his ears. Jiang Sui Yan tried hard to open his eyes, and a somewhat blurry world came into his sight.
"Wake up!" someone exclaimed, and someone was hurriedly trying to contact the outside world.
It seems that my brother won.
Jiang Sui Yan kept his eyes open for a while, but he couldn't resist the deep sleepiness and slowly fell into a dream.
When Jiang Sui Yan woke up again, it was already evening.
His brother was dressed in black and solemn, his face as handsome and cold as ever, but his eyes were tired. Only when he looked at him did his eyes warm slightly: "Awake?"
"Yeah." Jiang Suiyan arched his back and placed his furry head on his brother's legs: "Brother, I'm fine."
"I know." The black-clothed swordsman gently stroked his younger brother's soft black hair. His eyes darkened for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure before Jiang Sui Yan noticed.
——It is precisely because he knows this that he can remain sane.
Jiang Suiyan asked, "Brother, are you healed? How about everyone else?"
"Those injuries will heal quickly." The black-clothed swordsman assured his younger brother, "Everyone is fine."
"...Where is Shao Jishuang?" Jiang Sui Yan asked hesitantly.
The black-clothed swordsman smiled faintly: "He woke up two days earlier than you, so it's okay."
"Haha...I see..." Jiang Suiyan's animal-like instincts beeped, and he jumped up and put on his shoes in a few seconds: "Brother, I'll go see him."
"Sui Sui, why don't you explain to me what you said before you fell asleep?" The black-clothed swordsman slowly stroked his sleeves and said, "Are you in love, huh?"
"Well..." Jiang Suiyan jumped up, not daring to look back, and ran out as if a wolf was chasing him: "Brother, I'll go see Shao Jishuang first, and then explain when I come back--"
The black-clothed swordsman looked at his younger brother's back, which was filled with guilt, and shook his head helplessly, a smile hidden in his eyes: "Silly, after all these years, you haven't grown up at all..."
Jiang Sui Yan stopped outside the hall.
Under the golden and red clouds in the sky, the young man with bloodshot eyes had a gentle smile on his face and opened his arms towards him.
Jiang Sui Yan pounced on him.
"Shao Jishuang!"
"I'm here." Shao Jishuang chuckled.
"I miss you so much." Jiang Suiyan rubbed his lover's chest like a kitten.
Shao Jishuang: "I miss Suisui too."
"Cough cough..." A cough sounded, ruining the atmosphere.
Jiang Suiyan looked over angrily: Didn’t you see someone kissing me?!
Tang Jiu, waving a jade fan, gestured to Jiang Sui Yan to turn back with an innocent look on his face.
Jiang Sui Yan turned his head doubtfully.
Then, he saw his brother, who had a distinguished temperament, standing at the entrance of the palace without him noticing when. His eyes were as dark as insoluble ink...
“…”
"Brother, I was wrong—"
