Chapter 54: Living Towards Death◇
◎The mysterious man reappears◎
Above the empty sea of blood, the water was churning non-stop, and gradually even a hint of hot steam emerged. Kong Shuang knew that the Styx inside probably guessed his thoughts.
She forced a twitch of her lips, staring at Zhunti with indifferent eyes, and said, "You actually discovered it? If you had been as smart as you are now, I wouldn't hate you so much."
As she spoke, drawing everyone's attention, she secretly mobilized her remaining magical power and probed her own heart meridians...
There is no one who doesn't want to live a good life. This time she has been pushed to the point of being at the end of her rope. She doesn't want Hongyun Zhenyuanzi to be implicated by her. If she survives, she will be at someone's mercy. It would be better to die than to be forced to live.
Maybe fate will favor her again, and when she wakes up next time, she will be in a new place and have a new life.
But the regrets of this world could never be made up. A gentle, smiling face vaguely flashed before her eyes. She really couldn't bear to part with that person...
The magic power had penetrated into her heart, and the severe pain made Kong Shuang groan, her face as pale as paper.
Sometimes, the person who knows you best in the world may not be yourself, but may be your enemy. Seeing that Kong Shuang was acting strangely, Zhunti immediately understood that Kong Shuang wanted to commit suicide.
In the blink of an eye, a magical power belonging to a saint followed by a thought of Zhunti quickly attacked the magical power that Kong Shuang was probing into his heart meridian.
Suddenly, Zhunti opened her eyes wide in disbelief, and found that after her magic power entered Kong Shuang's heart meridian, her heart meridian was empty, and the magic power used for self-killing disappeared!
Kong Shuang smiled bitterly and closed his eyes, welcoming the arrival of death.
It is better to tell outsiders that she stayed in the sea of blood for too long, and most of her cultivation was eroded. Although she seemed to be safe, she was actually weak inside and did not even have enough magic power to commit suicide.
Her target from the very beginning was Zhunti. She knew that Zhunti would definitely stop her from committing suicide. At the same time, her magic power was not enough to support her suicide. The only way was to borrow someone else's power.
Zhunti's magic power was used to attack her, but her magic power was gone, and it was impossible for Zhunti to take it back...
Thinking of this, Kong Shuang felt that he couldn't even laugh. Since when did she have to calculate even her own life and death?
It was very uncomfortable and painful when Zhunti's magic power entered her heart meridian. It was almost ten or a hundred times more painful than when her own magic power entered her heart meridian.
She pushed down the pain, knowing it wouldn't last long and she would soon no longer feel it.
Suddenly, the Qingxin Bell began to jingle, and the amplitude of the shaking was more rapid than any time before.
Suddenly, Hong Yun's pupils widened, and he turned his head in disbelief. He saw the same incredible expression on Zhen Yuanzi's face:
A person actually walked out of Kong Shuang's body!
To be precise, it should be a human-shaped shadow, vague and unclear, and the face cannot be seen clearly. One can only see that he looks very thin, but it is not difficult to see that he has a proud and unyielding character.
He stood between Kong Shuang and Zhunti, his sleeves fluttering lightly, and two magical powers as big as ancient mountains fell on the two of them. Even without coming into contact with the two magical powers, Zhen Yuanzi felt his scalp tingling.
This is something that was not felt even in Jie Yin and Zhunti.
The magic power entered Kong Shuang's body, but he did not feel any discomfort. In an instant, the breath belonging to Zhunti was completely eliminated, but the backlash still made Kong Shuang vomit blood.
At least your life is safe!
Seeing this, a skinny hand slipped out from the shadow's wide sleeves, and he held his forehead helplessly, looking very regretful.
Zhunti was actually pushed back several steps by the rebounding magic power before he could barely steady himself. He then flew into a rage: "Who is this monster? How dare you go against a saint?"
Kong Shuang looked at the figure in astonishment: "Who are you and why are you helping me?"
The man ignored it.
Zhunti became even angrier, and holding the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree in his arms, he smashed it towards the shadow. The magic weapon, which was mixed with the power of a saint that could destroy the world, passed through the shadow, but the shadow remained motionless and had no reaction at all.
The Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree froze for a moment, and the owner of the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree was even more shocked. Besides being shocked, he felt ashamed and annoyed. He continued to use the rest of the magic weapons to attack it, but it still had no effect on it.
Hong Yun was so shocked that he hardly dared to blink. He was sure that if he could see the expression of this phantom, he would definitely be very indifferent and annoyed.
Kong Shuang frowned, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes: "Who are you?"
At this moment, a snow-green long sword came across, and it began to emit a thousand-foot-long light from a point of cold light. Wherever the sword pointed, the sharp edge was everywhere, and everything stopped.
In the blink of an eye, countless magic weapons on the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree were chopped down. The magic weapons of the saints that were originally shining with golden light were reduced to bare branches in an instant, looking extremely pitiful.
Everyone's attention was attracted by the long sword. Seeing the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree in this state, Zhunti was even more furious, but when he thought of the owner of the long sword, he did not dare to attack, and a drop of cold sweat flowed from his forehead.
On the contrary, the moment he saw the familiar long sword, Kong Shuang breathed a sigh of relief. His heart, which had been beating so hard in his chest, calmed down and he even felt aggrieved.
Reversals appeared one after another. Although the timing was not right, Hongyun couldn't help getting excited. Originally, Zhunti Jieyin was so glorious and could kill anyone he wanted. But now, troublemakers appeared one after another.
The sword arrived and the man arrived. The young man in the bright red Bagua uniform still came through the void as he did every time before, standing on the high clouds and walking down the steps. The difference was that he was no longer gentle and reserved, but full of vigor and vitality.
Looking at that man, Kong Shuang felt a lump in his nose. He saw that the corner of his robe was torn, his hair was disheveled, and even his eyes were no longer smiling. Instead, one side of his face was red, and a murderous aura emanated from his body. He looked like a god of death that had walked out from the depths of a sea of blood, rather than a saint who was merciful to all living beings.
She rubbed her eyes and said, "Why did you come just now? I've been waiting for you for a long time."
It's unknown when the green-clothed figure disappeared...
Zhunti's eyes also turned red, his face tense: "Brother Tongtian, what do you mean? Are you planning to fight with me?"
Now Tongtian is a saint, and they are also saints. Two saints against one saint, their chances of winning are very high!
Tongtian ignored him and landed next to Kong Shuang in the blink of an eye. It is said that saints are not affected by any emotions and their emotions will not fluctuate too much, but the moment he saw Kong Shuang, his heart was gripped.
He wanted to smile at her but couldn't, so he could only say dryly: "I'm late."
Kong Shuang shook her head vigorously, then nodded, her eyes becoming more sore. If it were any other time, she would have gone to her arms and acted coquettishly and then complained harshly, but now she just felt embarrassed.
She promised him that she would succeed, but when she saw him again, she found him in such a mess.
She left with great satisfaction, but now she can only wait for rescue. Kong Shuang hates the feeling of not being able to control her own destiny. She could still ignore it in front of Hongyun Zhenyuanzi, but she felt ashamed when she saw Tongtian.
Tongtian didn't understand her complicated mood. What he cared about most was her physical condition. It had only been a few days since they last met, but she had changed so much in an instant. He only regretted that he should not have let her go. If he had been with her at the beginning, perhaps she would not have been seriously injured.
Compared to becoming a saint, Kong Shuang is naturally much more important.
Whenever he thought of this, his chest was filled with unspeakable emotions, making him feel uncomfortable and almost suffocated.
"It's my fault."
His voice was dry, and he slowly extended his palm to touch her pale cheek.
Kong Shuang felt even more wronged. She knew she shouldn't feel wronged, but she couldn't help but lean on his shoulder and sob softly:
"Then why did you show up just now? Do you know how scared I was just now? I don't want to ride Zhunti's mount, and I don't want to be branded with the mark of my soul, and never be able to transform back into human form. I am also afraid of death. I don't want to die, because if I die, I won't be able to see you anymore..."
Tongtian felt relieved by hearing complaints again and again. Kong Shuang had always been arrogant. If she was not careful after suffering such a great blow, it would affect her heart and give rise to inner demons, which would add more difficulties to her path of cultivation. This time she could vent her anger, and the result was not too bad.
Hong Yun was dumbfounded. Kong Shuang was always calm and strong in front of him. It was the first time he saw her pouting, wanting to cry but feeling embarrassed, looking so aggrieved.
I have to say that the deterrent effect is very strong.
On the other side, Tongtian patted her head lovingly: "Don't cry, I will avenge you."
Kong Shuang rubbed his shoulder again, covered her eyes and stood up straight. Seeing his loose hair, she felt a little regretful: "How are you? Are you okay?"
After that, she stood on tiptoe, used her hands as a comb, and carefully tidied his hair.
Tongtian smiled faintly and lowered his head to cooperate with her actions.
Hong Yun was even more shocked, and he increasingly suspected that the Kong Shuang in front of him was not the Kong Shuang he knew. How could he become a different person? It was the first time he saw Kong Shuang so dependent on someone!
Zhunti, who was not far away, had a dark face. He was still here, but Kong Shuang dared to accuse him so openly, and was so intimate with Tongtian as if no one was around. Did he really think he couldn't see it, or did he not take him seriously?
Either of these two reasons made him extremely angry.
He coughed lightly and said, "Brother Tongtian, I haven't congratulated you on becoming a saint yet?"
No one on the other side noticed them.
"Okay." Kong Shuang raised his eyes, withdrew his hand, looked her up and down for a while, and smiled: "I think she looks better than before."
After saying that, she coughed twice and covered her chest.
Tongtian couldn't help but frown and held her wrist.
As his magic power penetrated, her tense nerves relaxed a lot instantly. He originally thought that her body and even her soul would be seriously damaged, but now it is much better than he thought. Although her magic power cannot be used temporarily, at least she can repair herself quickly.
Thinking of this, Tongtian couldn't help but recall the scene when he first met Kong Shuang. He lowered his head to look at the motionless Qingxin Bell on her ankle, and understood a little more.
Kong Shuang had nothing to do for the time being, and other things were about to begin. He supported Kong Shuang and carefully handed her over to Hong Yun: "Please help take care of her, thank you!"
These words made Hongyun feel uncomfortable. Kong Shuang was also his friend, and it was always someone else's turn to ask for help. But he still took Kong Shuang over without hesitation, and then found that he was actually a little envious of her at this time.
Zhen Yuanzi would team up with Kong Shuang to trick him, and not say anything...
After entrusting Kong Shuang, Tongtian's eyes suddenly became sharp. He turned his head and looked at Jie Yin Zhunti. His eyes, which had slowly recovered their depth, slowly turned back to red. He was originally a saint in charge of killing, and seeing Kong Shuang seriously injured, he couldn't control his temper.
As soon as he stretched out his hand, the Qingping Sword automatically flew into his hand.
"Don't you want to fight? Come, I will help you!"
His eyes were exactly the same indifferent as Kong Shuang's, which made Zhunti feel inexplicably guilty. He then remembered that it was Kong Shuang who showed up to snatch his Hongmeng Purple Qi, and he guessed that he was the one in the right, even in front of the teacher.
Thinking of this, Zhunti puffed out his chest and said sarcastically, "Brother, you have been blinded by beauty. Kong Shuangxian coveted the Hongmeng Purple Qi that Brother Jieyin and I have. Brother, instead of standing up for us, you are even supporting the person who started it. Why is this? You have really failed to live up to our teacher's teachings."
Tongtian was always ruthless and taciturn when fighting, and he couldn't compare to Kong Shuang's eloquence. But at this moment, his indifferent expression made him say something that was completely inconsistent with his current image:
"The instigator? In my opinion, you two should thank Kong Shuang. If it weren't for Kong Shuang inspiring your potential, you wouldn't have achieved sainthood so quickly. Is this how your teacher taught you to treat your benefactor?"
Hongyun's hand, which was supporting Kong Shuang, trembled: I finally understood how Kong Shuang and Shang Qing got together. It turned out that they just had similar tastes.
This sentence... is very Kong Shuangfeng
