Chapter 106: Cardiogenic Resonance and "His" Clumsy Pull
Cardiogenic resonance and "his" clumsy tug
Li Jiuyou's violent and murderous actions froze for a moment because of Jiang Xuelan's hoarse, bloody call and the brief moment of clarity that the other party had gained by self-harming. In his eyes, which were intertwined with red gold and black, the madness faded slightly, and a very brief struggle and recognition flashed across his eyes.
Jiang Xuelan endured the severe pain from his brow and the weakness of his soul, seized this fleeting opportunity, and conveyed his suppressed shock and pain about the truth, as well as his complex emotions towards the person in front of him who was also teased by fate, with all his strength without any concealment!
It was not language, but a more direct vibration of the soul:
There was anger at the betrayal of the Immortal Sect, sadness for deceased relatives, confusion over the collapse of one's own beliefs, and... there was also a trace of compassion and a very faint, absurd resonance towards Li Jiuyou's tampered hatred and clumsy protection, which even Jiang Xuelan herself had not carefully distinguished?
Li Jiuyou clearly took it all in! The complex torrent of emotions was even more turbulent than his own simple rage, and more... real! Especially that last trace of compassion and resonance, like a fine needle, fiercely piercing his heart wrapped in evil thoughts!
"Ugh..." Li Jiuyou groaned in pain, the black bloodshot in his eyes swirling violently, as if he were engaged in an extremely difficult internal struggle! His hand gripping the Jinsheng Knife trembled slightly, and the black energy on the blade flickered.
"King! Wake up!" Man Gu took the opportunity to shout!
A Che also plucked up the courage to push the light of the Jianmu buds to the extreme. The soft green enveloped the place. Although it could not dispel the evil thoughts, it brought a sense of comfort.
A strange light flashed in Xingtong's eyes, and she suddenly said, "Oh my~ It's really touching~ It's a pity that just talking is not enough~ Don't forget what you just saw in 'Xinzhong Yingxin'~ That's the key~" Her words were like a hint, waking the two of them up.
Heart tomb reflecting heart? Those socially dead, forcibly revealed "true feelings" just now?
Those subconscious concerns, awkward desires to protect, and even fleeting absurd feelings of affection?
At this time and place, facing the evil thoughts that can amplify all negative emotions, those seemingly insignificant "positive" emotions that they even strongly deny have become the only weapon to fight against the evil thoughts!
Jiang Xuelan immediately understood what Xingtong meant!
He no longer tried to suppress his emotions with coldness, but took a deep breath and tried to recall the fragments of Li Jiuyou that he had sensed - the nervousness when the other party blocked the attack for him, the cautiousness when he clumsily healed his wounds, and even the ridiculous thought of "pleasing the eye" at that moment... He amplified these perceived emotions, along with similar suppressed fluctuations on his side (such as the heart palpitations when Li Jiuyou burst out to protect him), and transmitted them to Li Jiuyou with all his strength through the blood contract!
Li Jiuyou's whole body was shocked!
Those "weak points" of his emotions, forcibly amplified and transmitted by Jiang Xuelan, which belonged to him but had never faced them, and the corresponding subtle fluctuations from Jiang Xuelan's side, were like streams of warm light, pouring into his sea of consciousness, which was filled with darkness and coldness! Although weak, they were completely different from the cold and destructive evil thoughts!
"Damn it..." Li Jiuyou gritted his teeth, veins popping out on his forehead, as if he was in immense pain, but the darkness in his eyes began to fade at a visible speed! He suddenly raised his head and looked at Jiang Xuelan, who was close at hand. His eyes were extremely complicated, with violence, struggle, and a hint of disbelief and... embarrassment?
"You...you fucking..." He wanted to curse, but didn't know what to say.
The small Xirang Sacred Tree seemed to sense the subtle and difficult positive emotional connection between the two, and suddenly burst into an unprecedented brilliant rainbow light! The light was like a warm tide, instantly sweeping across the entire cave, temporarily suppressing the evil spirits and ghostly hands surging from the cracks! The old thought sounded again, with a hint of urgency and relief:
"Now! Infuse the sacred tree with the resonance of the heart! Strengthen the seal!"
The two were stunned for a moment, then understood! They were being asked to use the blood pact to fuse these newly aroused positive emotions that fought against evil thoughts and inject them into the sacred tree!
No time to hesitate!
Jiang Xuelan and Li Jiuyou looked at each other (their eyes met and then separated, both feeling extremely uncomfortable), and made a decision at the same time!
The two of them still maintained the posture of Jiang Xuelan holding Li Jiuyou's wrist, and closed their eyes at the same time, trying their best to guide the weak but tenacious clear will in their bodies that had just struggled out of evil thoughts and those awkward "positive" emotions, and tried to merge them through the blood contract link!
This time, it is no longer a fusion of ice and fire energy, but a deeper resonance of thoughts and emotions!
The process was still difficult and awkward! For two straight men, actively recalling and amplifying the socially devastating emotions that had them digging their toes into the ground was more tiring than a full-scale battle! The other party's equally awkward and embarrassing emotions, yet their compulsion to cooperate, were palpable, filling this resonance with an indescribably strange atmosphere!
But perhaps it was the desire to survive that overwhelmed everything, or perhaps it was the guidance of the power of the sacred tree, the faint light of the heart source finally lit up between the two of them, and through their clenched wrists, it slowly injected into the small Xirang sacred tree!
The divine tree shone brightly, and colorful light poured into the cracks in the ground like a waterfall! The surging evil spirit and ghostly hands seemed to have encountered their nemesis, shrieking and quickly retreating! The vibrations in the cave also began to weaken.
However, just when the seal was about to be solidified——
The core of the evil thought seemed to have launched a final counterattack!
An extremely pure, cold, and endlessly resentful thought, like a long-hidden poisonous snake, suddenly shot out from the depths of the crack, avoiding the light of the sacred tree, and accurately shot towards Jiang Xuelan, who was the weakest due to excessive consumption!
"Be careful!" Li Jiuyou was the first to sense the deadly danger, his pupils shrinking! Almost without thinking, he exerted force, yanking Jiang Xuelan, who was threatened by his blade and weakened by exhaustion, behind him! At the same time, he spun around, using his back to meet the terrifying evil thought's impact!
"Puff!" Li Jiuyou's body shook violently, spitting out a mouthful of black blood, his face instantly turning pale! However, the evil thought's impact was largely offset by the barrier that had just formed within him, a mixture of the light of the heart and the demonic power of the king's blood!
Jiang Xuelan clearly felt the terrifying force of the impact and the severe damage Li Jiuyou suffered instantly! He collided with Li Jiuyou's back, watching his staggering figure and the spilled black blood. For the first time, a clear emotion called "panic" appeared in his icy blue eyes!
"Li Jiuyou!"
