Chapter 1621 Restoring Calmness

I nodded secretly, thinking that these ancestors of the Hu family were still very humane and knew that everyone should shoulder the burden together. Otherwise, if only one person woke up, I am afraid that in the end, half of the ancestors of the Hu family sleeping here would be killed.

However, doing so can preserve the number of strong people to the greatest extent, and I suspect that those most powerful beings probably do not need to revive to activate the Demon-Subduing Mirror, so that the strongest combat power will be 100% retained.

I looked at the coffin, then at Hu Shihua, and suddenly asked, "Will she... fall asleep soon?"

Hearing this, Hu Shihua laughed, then walked closer, tapped my forehead with his finger and said, "What are you thinking? Do you really think that deep sleep is the same as sleeping? Then no one can sleep for thousands of years, right?"

"Uh..." I touched my nose awkwardly and said with a smile, "I don't understand." At

this moment, Hu Shihua seemed to have turned into the elderly widow Wang again, and I was still the young and ignorant boy being scolded by her in the tone of an elder.

This scene is really memorable, but unfortunately, some things can never go back.

Time can't go back, those villagers who passed away can't come back, and I am no longer the young and ignorant boy.

"Every race has its own way of sleeping. Our Hu family cuts off the original power in our bodies, leaving only the pure yang energy to maintain our vitality. That feeling... is actually almost the same as being dead. The only difference is that the pure yang energy is still flowing in the body at an extremely slow speed. And because these sleeping ancestors have more or less Fiery Sun Fox blood in their bodies, the pure yang energy in their bodies is still flowing at a very slow speed. "The pure yang energy in their bodies is almost inexhaustible, so... they can sleep for thousands of years without dying!"

I nodded slightly when I heard it, "Doesn't that mean... these ancestors of the Hu family can theoretically sleep until the end of time?"

This is like a perpetual motion machine. The pure yang energy in their bodies is endless, so they can sleep forever, unless one day, the pure yang energy is no longer produced in their bodies.

"That's just theory, but... sleeping for too long is not good either, as it will cause the original power to be completely cut off from oneself. The original power is the bloodline of the Fiery Sun Sky Fox. If it is really cut off from oneself, then the original power will not continue to produce pure yang energy, and then, one may die completely in sleep."

Hu Shihua sighed at this point: "This kind of thing has happened before, because those ancestors failed to wake up in time, and my Hu family did not wake them up in time. After we opened the coffins, we found that those ancestors had...only a pile of bones left!"

I couldn't help but twitch my mouth, thinking that those ancestors were too unlucky!

"However, this won't happen now. The previous Fiery Sun Fox calculated the limit of each of these ancestors' sleeps according to the years they slept, and engraved the time on the coffins. We just need to wake up these ancestors in advance according to the time on the coffins."

After Hu Shihua finished speaking, he took a deep breath, then walked slowly to the beam of light, looked at me and said, "I want to see the current situation in the demon world." After

that, he pinched the seal with his hands, and his eyes suddenly condensed.

In an instant, the rolling pure yang energy surged out of his body and was completely swallowed by the Demon-Subduing Mirror.

Then, I saw the starry sky above me suddenly change. The blood moon had disappeared at some point, and the row of stars slowly moved, and finally, they were arranged in a very complicated position.

A few seconds later, I saw the starry sky suddenly emit a strong light. The light was so bright that it almost illuminated the entire forbidden area. Even I was enveloped by the light.

I don't know why, when I was enveloped by this light, I suddenly had an illusion that I had established some kind of connection with the Demon-Slaying Mirror.

I could sense the existence of the Demon-Slaying Mirror, and the Demon-Slaying Mirror didn't seem to resist me.

"Is it because of the fate that I have cultivated with Hu Shihua and Hu Shiran?" I murmured in my heart, then raised my head and looked at the starlight above my head.

When the light faded, the scene in the demon world immediately appeared on the starry sky.

I saw that the demon world, which was originally in chaos, had calmed down at this moment, and even the rolling demon aura seemed to have been reduced by more than half, becoming much weaker than before. All the demons that fought with the Hu family retreated to the depths of the forbidden area. Some of the powerful ones all sealed themselves again and fell into a deep sleep. The remaining small demons also hid in the depths of the forbidden area and dared not come out again.

After seeing this scene, I frowned secretly, thinking that the principle of the Fu Yao Mirror to suppress the demon world is to reduce the luck of the entire demon world?

As long as the demonic energy of the entire demon world becomes weak and the luck is reduced, then the demons will naturally be unable to maintain themselves and can only passively choose to sleep. Otherwise, the original power in the body will be lost, and not only will the powerful cultivation be wasted, but also the life span will be almost gone.

Countless pictures kept flashing in the starry sky. The scenes in the pictures were almost the same. All the forbidden areas of the demon world returned to peace. However, the Hu family suffered heavy losses. Many of the strong men of the Hu family who guarded the forbidden areas died here. Those who survived were also wounded, and only one in ten survived!

"In this battle, my Hu family suffered heavy losses. I'm afraid it will take a long time to recover." Hu Shihua sighed, then walked out of the starlight and said, "Qian Yu, let's go."

I nodded, and then walked out side by side with Hu Shihua.

"The ancestor said... this suppression can only last for half a month. How long did the previous suppression last?" I suddenly asked.

Hearing this, Hu Shihua pondered for a while, and then said: "Each previous suppression could last about three hundred years. The reason why this time is so short may be... because the spiritual energy has begun to recover, the way of heaven will change, and it will affect the fate of the Demon-Subduing Mirror."

I nodded, and then the two of us flashed and turned into two streams of light, quickly flying upward along the abyss.

When I returned to the Hu Mansion and saw the miserable situation in the Hu Mansion again, even I couldn't help but look dim, and Hu Shihua was even more sad, but now, the third master Hu and the third grandmother Hu are gone, and this huge Hu family is still waiting for her to preside over it, so no matter how sad and heartbroken she is, she can only hold on and not let herself fall.
