Chapter 268 Heaven and Earth 4
Chapter 268 Heaven and Earth Combined
"You know the curse of Zhiyuexuanguang, right?"
"I know." After obtaining the treasure house of Tianxin Sect, Li Wuxiang found the spell to control the Moon-Pointing Mysterious Light from those books. The reason why it has not been used is that this thing is like an operating manual. Reading and understanding it does not mean that you can easily control a huge and sophisticated machine. It still takes time to practice and become familiar with it. And since he came to this world, the most lacking thing is time.
"That's great. Listen, I'll tell you and teach you how to use it!"
It looks like a beach where the tide has just receded.
Li Wuxiang felt that his mind was like a beach where the tide had just receded - he had previously been engulfed by the immense reverence for the Emperor Dutian Siming, but now that the tide had receded, he had come to his senses.
However, there seemed to be some water stains, lightly soaking the beach. The things that were previously submerged by the waves in my consciousness are now slightly exposed, and the beach seems to be illuminated by the setting sun or the rising sun, making it shine - shining when I heard these words.
New thoughts came to his mind, but when he tried to grasp them, he only felt tired - so tired that he felt like he wanted to faint and lose consciousness.
This feeling was so inappropriate that Li Wuxiang even found it absurd. Was it because he was so distracted just now that his energy was exhausted? Or...
"This Star Raft is a world of its own, and the Moon-Pointing Mysterious Light is also a world of its own, so the Tianxin Sect can raise ghosts in it. Those ghosts are not actually raised in the sacred mountain, but in the netherworld. Guiyin Zhenjun's magical power penetrates the netherworld, and he also uses this thing. Now you just need to chant the spell to penetrate the netherworld, the external evil is also looking for you and will help you!"
Li Wuxiang felt that he should ask one more question and think about it more. But what should he think about?
He felt himself drowsy again, and a chill rose in his heart... Am I still obsessed? Why is my thought so laborious?
"Isn't it courting death by coming upon me? Jiang Jie is looking for it, but now I'm trapped in Jiang Jie's Star Raft!"
Yes, this seems to be the right question. Li Wuxiang heaved a sigh of relief in his heart - I am still awake, I have come out of the trance!
"Are you still not awake? No matter how strong Jiang Jie is, he cannot come to this world. Now outside the Great Tribulation Mountain, the Hedao of the Xuan Sect is eyeing him covetously. He has only seized the authority of the True Spirit, and the believers have little willpower. If he really comes to this world, the Hedao of the Xuan Sect will take him down. So it is much better for the external evil to come to you, to the Yang World, than to stay in the Holy Mountain!"
Yes, that's it!
Now he is like a trapped beast... He doesn't know what to do after the external evil comes to him, but it's just like he didn't know what to do after jumping into the sea of fire - the situation is like this, there is no better way than to gamble everything on it!
Mei Qiulu had finished her prayer. She turned to look at Li Wuxiang, and seeing his expression, she smiled slightly, "Don't be nervous. I'm here to protect you. The Great Emperor Siming appeared last night. As long as we invite him down, use the Eastern Emperor Seal, and rename the names of the various sects, today's matter will be settled. But have you decided what to call your own sect?"
Mei Qiulu looked normal when she spoke, and there was no sign that she was fascinated at all.
But it was only at this time that Li Wuxiang finally understood the matter - asking for help from the Emperor of Heaven would mean seeking death!
What the voice said just now was right. The external evil has lost its power. In Lingshan, it is not only no match for Jiang Jie, but also no match for many powerful wild gods and monsters, and the true spirit of the Emperor of Xuanjiao.
His situation is actually the same as Jiang Jie's! Not many people know him yet, and he may not be as strong as the former external evil. Even if their strength is equal, the former external evil would hide and dare not show up. He showed his sainthood on the Great Tribulation Mountain tonight, and his name spread all over the world. The people of Xuanjiao must be like crazy and do their best to deal with him... So, he also wants to come to the Yang world to avoid disaster and avoid the great emperor's true spirit in the sacred mountain!
As for this skin of mine, this Green Bag Immortal, it is easier for me to achieve enlightenment through willpower than ordinary people. When the time comes, "The Great Emperor of Heaven Siming" will wear this skin, and then trigger the Great Calamity Mountain Fire to escape...
I figured it out. I figured it all out!
"Sister, wait a minute!" Li Wuxiang said in a low voice, "Don't ask why, I——"
Mei Qiulu smiled, like a mother or elder sister watching her brother shrinking from a challenge: "You can't wait any longer. The time has been calculated, and the rules have been set long ago. Don't be afraid, the next step is to 'worship the crown' - the emperor will not harm you, and our formation will also work."
As she spoke, she raised her hand and pressed Li Wuxiang's shoulder.
Only then did Li Wuxiang realize how strong Mei Qiulu's cultivation was - just this one press was like a mountain pressing down on his shoulders. He suddenly became speechless, and the energy in his body seemed to be trapped, locking his limbs, making it impossible for him to stand up.
At this time, the people at the bottom of the stairs came up.
The first to come up were the Juque Sect - Mou Donglie had escaped in the yard before, and when he saw Mei Qiulu and Li Wuxiang, he still had a reserved look on his face.
But he was not afraid. He seemed to be inspired by the power of the Star Raft and became calm. He walked to Li Wuxiang, half-knelt on the ground, and held up the real weapon of the "Dafang Tablet" with both hands and presented it to him.
Li Wuxiang could only stretch out his hand and lightly touch the giant sword.
A soft, tiny breath flowed into his body, fleeting.
He took the large square tablet. But he didn't feel that way at that time. He knew that this was because Mou Donglie, the founder of the thirty-six sects, was gone, but the treasures of each sect still had the remaining aura of the founder. At this time, Mou Donglie used his own mental method to activate it, so the aura remained in his body for the time being. This power was very small, but it contained the destiny and fate that the ancestors inherited from Donghuang Taiyi. These fortunes gathered together, and also symbolized the unity of human destiny.
After the Juque School is the Qingxiao School, followed by the Qianji School, the Tiangong School, and the Suhua School.
Faint auras remained in Li Wuxiang's body, and the sense of majesty that he had previously felt over the world began to slowly rise in his heart again.
"Yes, hurry up, now!" the voice urged him, "The remaining charm of the magic weapons of the thirty-six sects is gathered on you, and the ritual will be completed - then you will have the most noble fate in the world, and you will be the best vessel for Jiang Jie! But now is also the right time for you to ask Taiyi! Cast the spell!"
The more the voice lingered, the more Li Wuxiang felt unable to move. It was as if the stone seat beneath him had natural magic power. He was not the master, but the stone seat was forcibly choosing him as the master and not allowing him to leave.
He immediately recited the spell in his mind, trying to activate the moon-pointing mysterious light in his left eye socket.
Then, he felt his left eye slowly becoming deeper. Deep and hollow, as if as the curse in his heart gradually rose, this thing gradually disappeared from the eye socket - disappeared from this body, disappeared from the world of the living, and gradually left a hole in this world...
He felt it. After he finished reciting the last word of the incantation, while he was thinking about what to do next, he felt it.
The great, pale breath was gone, leaving only greed and eagerness. Somewhere in the unknown and deep, this feeling was like a tentacle wriggling in a muddy swamp, touching his consciousness.
At first he felt that this thing was extremely far away, but the moment he touched it, it immediately became close at hand - there was only an almost non-existent, thin layer between him and that thing, but this thing was indestructible, unquestionable, and seemed unable to be broken by any force in this world, that is, the words "I do", that is, self-will!
Li Wuxiang was convinced that this was an external evil.
It felt different, but something hadn't disappeared. It wasn't the appearance, the temperament, the habits, but the pure essence, which hadn't changed because it had lost its authority. On the contrary, because these things were gone, Li Wuxiang felt that he could see it more clearly.
He believed it was the True Spirit of Taiyi.
Because he remembered those thoughts that he had ignored when he was bewitched by Emperor Dutian Siming just now.
The ceremony had begun from that time on. He played the emperor, played Li Ye, and perhaps because of the magical powers of Emperor Siming, the distant memories of more than 3,000 years ago were reflected in his mind, and he truly experienced the thoughts that Li Ye had once had.
Before that, Li Ye was a vague and ethereal ancient man to him, a majestic and distant emperor, a symbol and a name that could not be desecrated.
But after that, the divinity was stripped away, the humanity was exposed, and a sense of closeness from the same origin was deeply imprinted in his heart. Now those memories flooded into his mind, and Li Wuxiang almost instantly experienced the joys, sorrows, anger, and happiness of Li Ye when he was still a human, and this feeling, experience, and origin were exactly the same as what was touching him now!
When he first became aware of the existence of the external evil, he was extremely wary of it, but now, he felt that the external evil seemed to have become that "him" again.
In fact, it is a little different from the original Li Ye... something is missing. It is as if it has existed in this world for too long, has been worshipped for too long, and has been burdened with too many achievements, so it has become a little strange, a little lost, and a little cold.
But now its greed, panic and eagerness fill those missing things.
When it was still Taiyi True Spirit, it was unfathomable and terrifying. But after it transformed into a human, Li Wuxiang felt that he could try to contact it.
“You…” Li Wuxiang felt that the voice in his consciousness was trembling slightly, “You… are Li Ye?”
"I'm Li Ye."
The moment he heard this voice, Li Wuxiang felt his whole body go numb! He spoke!
It was not through consciousness or divine thoughts, nor was it through his own mouth like before, but he - Li Ye - was in Lingshan or Youjiuyuan, although still in the divine consciousness, he spoke himself, opened his mouth personally!
Li Wuxiang knew that his current situation was extremely bad. He was like an ant in front of the Emperor Dutian Siming and could be killed or reborn at any time by his thoughts.
But his heart was still filled with ecstasy - it was the joy of victory!
Now, he had to talk to himself!
In human terms, not God's terms!
"You...are you in a bad state now?"
"It's not good for both you and me, Li Wuxiang."
"What did you call me? Call me again."
Li Ye's voice sounded a little ethereal, but Li Wuxiang felt it was very familiar, like the kind of familiarity that one would occasionally hear, which made one feel close to him. But his tone was still calm, like a real king who was still trying to maintain his dignity as an emperor even at the end of his rope.
"Li Wuxiang."
"You are calling my name now, Li Ye." Li Wuxiang whispered in his heart, "Do you know what I think? You called my name, which means we are equal to each other."
“Maybe you and I are more equal than you think.”
"What do you mean? Oh... I know, you come from the same place as me - what do you do over there?"
"I don't remember the past anymore."
You just don't want to say it!
Donghuang Taiyi, used to be a nine-to-five office worker, submissive and timid? I wouldn't say that even if it were me!
Let's stop here. At least let's stop here today. Li Wuxiang restrained his emotions and quickly returned to the topic: "Yes, I'm not doing well either. Jiang Jie took away your authority and became the Emperor of Heaven."
"Yes." The voice was calm, without any hint of dejection, embarrassment, or difficulty in speaking.
"Now that you're on my body, can you help me find a way out?"
"Jiang Jie can't possess you. Once the ritual is completed, I can temporarily borrow the remaining power of the thirty-six sects in your body to pick up some magical powers, which can help you and me escape from this great calamity mountain."
"Then what? Are you going to just keep running away? These Sword Sect people on the mountain have been worshipping you for three thousand years. You should find a way to save them."
There was no hesitation—"There is no way."
"You——" Some words came up, but were swallowed back by Li Wuxiang. Li Ye spoke very concisely, and Li Wuxiang was willing to believe that what he said "there is no way to think about it" was his true thoughts.
But this is a rational, cold-blooded and true thought, the best choice to preserve oneself.
However, since he came into this world, he has hardly ever made the best choice, but has always been "taking a chance".
An idea popped up in his mind - whoever owns the body has the final say! Li Wuxiang immediately said, "Okay, help me, and I'll let you come to my place."
It was still that calm, almost emotionless voice: "Okay. If you have the mind, call me into your body."
"that's it?"
"that's it."
It is very simple to have a thought. Once a thought arises, it is just a flash.
However, once a thought arises, there may be many distracting thoughts at the same time.
After asking this question and getting a positive answer, four words popped out of Li Wuxiang's mind:
"plum--"
Can we invite him now? The voice said that to invite the outer evil, we need to use the Moon-Pointing Mysterious Light, and also said that the Great Tribulation Mountain is now a well, and it can also be regarded as a path to the underworld...
"Industry--"
Now he had indeed used the Mysterious Light of the Moon to penetrate the Netherworld, but what about the well in the Great Tribulation Mountain? Wasn't it needed? Then why did Jiang Jie ask the Tiangong Sect to prepare on the Great Tribulation Mountain?
"you--"
The thin but indestructible barrier between him and Li Ye almost melted away because of this thought. Li Wuxiang felt the existence of the former Taiyi True Spirit more clearly. His rationality, coldness, and calmness made his mind clearer, as if he was immersed in the wind of a cold night, and his thoughts became clearer.
"Come--"
Therefore, because of this clear and bright thought, the last barrier and fog was also broken - not only the layer between him and Li Ye, but also the layer of fog in his mind that was left after the wave of worship for the Emperor of Heaven Siming receded, was also broken -
Who's that voice?!
That's not Li Guichen!
Li Guichen will not appear when he is awake!
The voice told him that if he invited the external evil into his body, he could practice the Great Tribulation Sword Sutra - he didn't know that he was just an "empty space" and could practice!
Just now, I wanted to have a ridiculous thought in my mind, and I wanted to faint at this time...
That's Li Guichen warning you!
He wants to take over!
Just now, until now, I have not come out of the trance! !
"——Li Ye, go away!!"
But Li Wuxiang felt that his skin was filled with something, as sharp as ice and as cold as a blade.
The last monk from the Thirty-Six Sects presented his sect’s magic weapon and touched his fingers.
And in Li Wuxiang's mind, the passage through the underworld opened up by Zhiyue Xuanguang suddenly closed and was isolated by some powerful force.
Now, he truly felt the Star Raft - it was truly indestructible and impossible to break through. It was as if it was just a propped-up trap before, but now the prey ran into it, the trap fell, the sky and the earth closed, and life was cut off.
"Oh." He heard Li Ye say calmly in his mind, "You and I fell into the trap."
