Chapter 637: Choose One
Ji Yaoguang said excitedly: "Liu Xian, please tell me what you can do to get Wanwan back!"
Liu Xing said truthfully: "The eldest sister died to save the world, and her soul and spirit are like a candle in the wind, scattered and drifting. If we use the essence and blood of a close relative as a blood bond, with innate kinship as a guide, and supplemented by hundreds of lifetimes of merit, the yin and yang complement each other, and if we add the power of faith, maybe the eldest sister's soul can really be reunited."
"Okay! Let's do it now!" Li Hanting agreed without saying a word.
Liu Xing said dimly, "This is just my guess. It's hard to put it into practice. Besides, you have been a good person for hundreds of lifetimes. If this is your last lifetime, if you use up all the merits from hundreds of lifetimes, you will disappear. And there will be no next lifetime. You will disappear completely."
Li Hanting said firmly: "It doesn't matter, saving Wanwan is the most important thing!"
After being silent for a long time, Zhang Tianshi finally spoke: "But, her wish is for you to survive."
Li Hanting smiled, and gently stroked the Tai Chi sword with his fingertips. The sound was so light that it seemed like a sigh, but it also revealed his determination to fight to the death.
"But what's the point of living in a world without her?"
"Since God has allowed me to have merits for hundreds of lifetimes at this time, this is her chance of survival."
"Hundreds of generations of merit, the blood of close relatives, the faith of the people, as long as there is a slight chance, I will not let it go."
Old Xiao on the side stepped forward and said, "The bloodline of the closest relatives will be given by my Xiao family! As for the Shen family, even if they disagree, I will make them agree!"
"We agree..." Shen Changfeng and others who had been hiding on the side for a long time came out.
"Grandpa, we were wrong. We, as brothers, have never fulfilled our responsibility to take care of our sister. Even if it takes all our blood to drain this time, we are willing to do it!"
Several members of the Shen family expressed their attitudes.
Everyone reached an agreement and took action immediately.
Ji Yaoguang, Qi Chong and others took the prayer books to various cities to collect signatures from the people.
The signatures of all people will leave behind a wish, and this wish is the power of faith. The more you collect, the more power of faith you will have.
When people learned that they could use this method to gather Shen Wan's scattered soul, they signed spontaneously.
In just one day, hundreds of millions of people left their signatures and wrote down their prayers.
Just when everyone was busy preparing to gather Shen Wan's soul, something unexpected happened!
The various Xuanmen sects detected that the Yin energy levels in various parts of China had suddenly skyrocketed, and those demons and monsters that once only existed in legends began to emerge like mushrooms after a rain.
After careful investigation, they found that the hundred-year appointment had indeed been brought forward, and even earlier than they had predicted!
And at this critical moment, the gates of the underworld opened wide, and countless ghosts escaped from the underworld back to the world of the living to do evil.
After the great battle of the sacrifice formation, Xuanmen was severely damaged.
The masters have lost all their spiritual power and their merits have been wiped out. Now they can only rely on the talismans they saved from the past to barely suppress the evil spirits.
But when the hundred-year agreement was lifted, demons and monsters emerged like a tide. All factions struggled to hold on, running around the streets every day to suppress the monsters and evil spirits. In less than a week, the Xuanmen factions were exhausted and could hardly hold on any longer.
The leaders of various Xuanmen sects and the 749 Agency held a joint meeting.
At the meeting, Elder Cang proposed a solution, "The hundred-year seal has been broken, and the evil spirits are now rampant, causing heavy casualties to the major sects. According to calculations, if this continues, China will be occupied by evil spirits within three days."
"After discussing with the sect, I came up with a solution. We can use the Yin-Yang Locking Heaven Array to temporarily isolate the evil spirits and seal off the Yin-Yang worlds. We just need to hold on until the spiritual energy recovers."
Taoist Wang said in distress: "Elder Cang, you are probably confused. Now there is no one in Xuanmen who has magical power and Taoism. How can we support the Liangyi Locking Heaven Array?"
During this period of time, they have been using the talismans and magical instruments left over from the past to fight against evil spirits, but without the blessing of magic, the effectiveness has been greatly reduced.
"Also, who knows when the spiritual energy will revive?"
Elder Cang said in a deep voice: "My Canghai Sect has already calculated that the Hundred Years Agreement has been lifted, and the spiritual energy will soon recover. What we have to do is to ensure that we can hold on until the spiritual energy recovers, otherwise this land will be occupied by evil spirits and become purgatory."
Ordinary people simply cannot resist the invasion of evil spirits.
"Elder Cang, just tell me, what do we need to do to activate the Liangyi Locking Heaven Array?"
Elder Cang felt a little embarrassed and glanced at Li Hanting who was sitting in the corner in silence.
With just one glance, all the old guys present understood what he meant.
Taoist Wang jumped up from his chair. "No wonder you insisted on inviting Mr. Li over. It turns out you were planning to take advantage of his merits!"
“The merits of a hundred generations are to save Fellow Daoist Shen!”
"How dare you think that!"
"She has already died to save us. Don't you think there is no hope for her?"
Elder Cang sighed heavily, "I don't want this to happen either, but if there is no Liang Yi Locking Heaven Array to suppress the evil spirits, within three days, China will surely become a purgatory, and ordinary people will be slaughtered and torn to pieces by the evil spirits. Is there any sect present that still has the strength to hold on until the spiritual energy recovers?"
Everyone was silent.
They are all seriously injured now, and even the elders of the sect who have been retired for many years have been asked to come out to deal with the evil spirits, not to mention the disciples who are rushing to the front line day and night.
Xuanmen has been exhausted long ago!
"I came here because I thought you had a way to save Wanwan. Since you don't, I'm leaving." Li Hanting stood up with a cold face.
"Mr. Li!" Elder Cang shouted hurriedly, "If it weren't for Fellow Daoist Shen, we would have died. It was Fellow Daoist Shen who saved China at the cost of his own life. Now China is facing another disaster. If it is gone like this, how can you and I face her painstaking efforts!"
"She paid for this with her life!"
Li Hanting swept his eyes across the crowd like a knife and sneered, "Moral kidnapping is useless to me. I just want her to come back."
"Other things have nothing to do with me."
Elder Cang said quickly: "As long as we hold on until the spiritual energy recovers, when the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is rich and everyone's Taoism is restored, we can think of a way to save Fellow Daoist Shen!"
“But if we can’t hold on, maybe you and I won’t be able to wait for Fellow Daoist Shen’s soul to condense, and we will all die!”
"Mr. Li, you don't know the seriousness of the situation now. There are more and more monsters and demons everywhere, and the ghost gates are wide open. Wronged souls and evil ghosts are invading everywhere, and sea monsters are also wreaking havoc in the sea...Xuanmen is exhausted and can no longer fight."
Elder Cang's face was filled with despair, his eyes were red, and he choked up and said, "If there were any other way, I would never have proposed to use the merits of a hundred lifetimes."
"If Daoist Shen were still alive, why would China be in this state? But now..."
"We all want to save Fellow Daoist Shen. She is a rare genius in Xuanmen, but the most urgent task is to save the lives of thousands of ordinary people first!"
