Chapter 254 The Old Man
When you shine a light on the scroll, the original painting of life slowly undergoes new changes.
He Cen's blood reflects their meeting, but Wen Qing's green pendant reflects their separation.
It is not a simple departure, but a separation of life and death filled with sorrow and blood.
The four of them could not escape the curse of time, but He Cen seemed to never grow old. He was young and always watched the four of them leave.
The price of the Sword Spirit's eternal life is to watch his master, best friend, and lover grow old forever, and he will always look like this.
There should have been no immortal cultivators in this world before, or perhaps the immortal cultivation system was not perfect and was still in its embryonic stage of development.
As the only sword spirit born in this world, He Cen has had four masters, and now it seems that they are undoubtedly four masters.
Each of them loved Jian Ling very much and taught him many things. The stories described in Floating Life Hundred Paintings were most likely the stories of the human world that they had brought Jian Ling to experience.
But people will always die, and they will always leave Hecen alone.
The scene depicted on the scroll is actually just a few scenes. Perhaps many important memories in life are not recorded. Time has diluted everything in the past. When we look at it now, there is only such a simple and changing ending.
Everyone had different looks, and probably no one had expected that there would be such a situation in the middle.
He Cen looked at the scene under the green pendant and murmured, "It turns out that you have already abandoned me once..."
These words were so heartbreaking that the masters were immediately distressed and tried to explain in a hurry, but the little sword spirit just closed the book quietly and said, "It's okay, I'm just expressing my feelings."
"The moon waxes and wanes, and people have joys and sorrows, separations and reunions. Perhaps the more important meaning of separation is reunion."
After saying this, he touched the aging figures of several masters in the scroll, and his voice became a little lower, "Chao Chao, you don't look good when you are old, you old man, so ugly..."
She was obviously sad, but she was forcing herself to smile. The four masters were speechless. Jun Chao held up the little sword spirit's face and wiped the corners of his eyes. "It's my fault. I shouldn't have left He He alone in this world."
"Don't be sad. I will definitely be able to stay with you for a long, long time this time."
He Cen blinked his eyes. Actually, he couldn't say that he felt wronged or sad, but he just felt a little sad.
Not only Jun Chao, it turned out that he also sent away Bo Lou Bei Qi and Wen Qing. It turned out that in an invisible place, such a big storm of separation had been brewing.
There should be many more things that the Heavenly Book can reveal, and there will be more research to do after we return.
The few of them did not waste time here and soon rushed back from the sea.
Because the formation worked, it temporarily cut off the connection between the cultivation world and the outside world. Some of the attackers who had been hiding before were also exposed because they could not contact the system.
However, this time with the presence of a new generation of talented people, Huanling and Ji Yining can handle it well.
This time, because they absorbed the power of the divine bone, even though the four masters were still at the Mahayana stage, it felt like their strength had made a qualitative leap.
He Cen could feel that the pressure from the four of them was getting stronger and stronger, and it was no longer something that ordinary cultivators could resist.
Even a sword spirit like him could feel the unusual pressure.
However, because the four masters loved him so much, even though he became so strong, they were always gentle and kind to He Cen.
The spiritual power always wraps around him gently and tenderly, caring for him very considerately.
Without this small world to transfer luck, He Cen could clearly feel that the cultivation world here had improved a lot in the past two years.
Not only is the spiritual energy more abundant, but the luck of the sect's geniuses has also improved a lot.
He sighed, "Is this world so peaceful and harmonious?"
Bei Qi thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps a long time ago, this place was a pure land."
"The fact that the gods ascended to heaven before was not groundless. The power in this world is already great, so it is not surprising that they are coveted by others."
He Cen held his fox tail and stroked it, "Master, how are you integrating with the power of the divine bone now? Have you found your lost memories? Do you have any idea of your origins?"
Bei Qi waved his fan. "This is quite difficult. There is still no progress."
"There has been some movement from the old ghost. The green pendant you found for him is quite useful. It should be some holy object separated from his body. It seems that the old ghost has become more powerful recently."
They had the secret space of the Heavenly Book for cultivation, and He Cen often went there to improve himself. In just two years, he had reached the late Yuanying stage.
If you really work hard, you might be able to catch up with four masters.
As soon as Bei Qi mentioned Wen Qing, He Cen looked towards him. The ghost world leader smiled at him, raised his hand and waved, motioning He Cen to come over.
The little sword spirit jumped over to him and sat down, "What's wrong, Master~"
Seeing his bright and charming smile, Wen Qing couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips. He hung the green pendant around He Cen's neck and said, "I give it to you. Take it with you."
He Cen: ???
"This is something your mother gave you. I can't accept such a precious thing."
As he was about to reach out to take it, Wen Qing quickly stopped him.
"I'm giving it to you, so don't refuse."
"The identities of several of us are questionable, and I think those family members in the mortal world probably have little blood relationship with us."
"This green pendant should not be my mother's. I have already absorbed a lot of energy from it, and I don't want to squeeze the remaining resources. It looks pretty good with its green light. Let me give it to you."
"If I see it, I will always be reminded of the scene where you were left alone in this world, and I will feel bad for you..."
He Cen didn't know what to say. He reached out and grasped the green pendant, but ultimately did not take it off.
He reached out and hugged Wen Qing, then laid on his master's shoulder and said coquettishly, "Master, don't worry, I will keep it well~"
Wen Qing smiled and said, "Just play with it if I give it to you. You can do whatever you want with it. Don't feel too stressed. We He He, all we need to do in this life is to be happy."
During this period of time, there were no attackers causing trouble, and everyone improved a lot in their cultivation in the secret environment of the Heavenly Book.
The next step is to accumulate merits and repair the ladder to heaven, and you will most likely be close to ascension.
But this is also a troublesome matter, because no one knows what the specific passage to ascend to the upper realm looks like.
It is also difficult to decide how to proceed on this road in the end.
The Heavenly Book Scroll has been quiet since it presented two different versions of the Floating Life Painting under the changes of the sword spirit's blood and the green pendant.
I always feel that we should put more effort into this.
He Cen was free one day and studied the scroll. "Master, do you think we should recall this memory?"
"How about - revisiting the old places? Do you have any impression of these places?"
