Chapter 176: Visitors from the Empty City
silence.
The entire Xiaohe City turned into a deserted city.
It wasn't completely silent either. In fact, if you listened carefully, you could still hear faint sounds coming from the pustules that were growing and bursting throughout the city.
Beep, beep, beep. This is the last echo left by this beautiful and rich city.
Luo Xuanyi felt a little regretful. She didn't dislike Xiaohecheng, she just wished she could maintain her beauty.
But not hating someone doesn't mean she has to stay, so Luo Xuanyi doesn't regret it.
A huge amount of death energy filled Luo Xuanyi's body, full of power.
There are probably about 20,000 people.
With a stretch of his hand, the soul of the entire city was pulled into his hand. Luo Xuanyi patiently lowered his head and carefully picked out Lian Qing's soul. He formed seals with his hands and began the skilled soul-searching technique.
Lian Qing's life story slowly unfolded in Luo Xuanyi's consciousness. Lian Qing's pride, his attachment to Xiaohe City, and the hardships he faced in joining the sect... But none of this moved Luo Xuanyi in the slightest, because all of this revealed a completely different world to her.
A world where one doesn't have to fight for their lives with their brothers and sisters, a world where one can take the imperial examination or choose to cultivate immortality. Lian Qinggao shouts about wanting to revive the family, but it's a pity that Luo Xuanyi doesn't even understand what a family is.
Therefore, Luo Xuanyi just skimmed over those meaningless fragments and focused directly on Lian Qing's memory of entering Yifengyin to practice, and comprehended it seriously, as devoutly as a student seeking education.
The clouds parted, and sunlight shone on the mountain that seemed to have no spiritual power, causing the formation to fluctuate.
Lian Qing stood beside a rock by the stream, intently gazing up at the old Taoist priest sitting cross-legged on the rock. Her expression subtly mirrored Luo Xuanyi's.
"Master, why are the flags arranged separately to anchor the formation called 'false stars'?"
The old Taoist held a piece of wild grass in his mouth and smacked his lips.
"...Have you finished reciting the Heart Purification Mantra for the Elementary Path of Formation?"
"I've finished." Lian Qing held up the book of Qingxin Mantra in his hand. There was not a single word on it, which was the proof that Lian Qing had finished reading it.
The old Taoist didn't even look at the book of the Heart Purification Mantra in Lian Qing's hand, but sighed dejectedly.
"Because fake is fake."
"The sky that was broken by the formation is fake. But since we can't find the real sky, we have to treat our own as the sky, as the stars."
Lian Qing was puzzled.
"How can the sky be fake?"
The old Taoist looked up at the sky.
"Yeah, how could the sky be fake?"
Luo Xuanyi felt a shudder.
If it weren't for the old Taoist's words, Luo Xuanyi would have known the truth about Tian long ago.
This feeling comes from reality.
She slowly lowered her head, her eyes passing over the broken section of her waist, penetrating the rusty air, and falling on the stone bricks behind her.
The waist is gone, Luo Xuanyi thought.
I'm back~
The word count will slowly return to 4,000 words a day this week, which means two updates a day. The word count will seem low these days, so you can save up a bit~
