Chapter 1053 But isn’t the end of the road to survival a cliff?
The Chaos Sea was still deep, but stardust like fireflies was floating around. The danger faded away, and everything became so magnificent and dreamy.
From a distance, it looks like a secret place that spans the eternal torrent.
The hero rests here.
No one was disturbed.
No one knows...
Ji Wushuang slowly landed in front of the skeleton. If possible, she wanted to collect his bones and let him return to his hometown.
In the past, Ji Wushuang did not understand the emotion called "hometown". It was not until she sent several masters back to their "hometown" one by one that she suddenly understood... "Hometown" is like an anchor point in the vast world, connecting the past and carrying on the future.
It is where they came from and where their souls return.
But before Ji Wushuang could touch him, a wave of water came gently and pushed her away. It gently rolled up the undercurrent, slowly and steadily devouring the skeleton inch by inch.
Ji Wushuang quietly watched the bones of his ancestors turn into dust, into flowing waves, into a low hum...
His fighting spirit and obsession, his courage and indomitable spirit, all surged and dissipated.
The bright crimson light could not penetrate the sea surface after all.
No one will ever disturb his eternal sleep; this is the final destination he has chosen...
Ji Wushuang looked up quietly and stared for a long time, then lowered her eyes and saluted silently. Then she grasped the fangs of the special void monster and floated up from the bottom of the sea like a fish. The fireflies and sparks followed closely and escorted her, as if leading the way for her.
After Ji Wushuang left.
The fireflies dispersed.
Darkness returns.
Return to eternal silence.
……
"Wow..."
As soon as Ji Wushuang surfaced, he felt countless sharp eyes falling on him.
She opened her eyes and found that the shore was full of "people".
They were wearing cloaks made of special materials and masks like Ju Mang's on their faces. The murderous intent in their eyes was hard to conceal, as if as long as Ji Wushuang made the slightest move, they would rush up and tear her into pieces.
They did not take action, not because they were afraid of Ji Wushuang, but because they were afraid of the Chaos Sea.
Ji Wushuang seemed not to notice their murderous intent. He raised his hand and gently brushed away the water droplets on his face, then slowly emerged from the chaotic sea.
As soon as she stood on the shore, countless crimson chaotic air tried to invade her body, but after realizing something, she "retreat at the right time".
Almost in an instant, a "vacuum field" appeared around Ji Wushuang.
Not only did the chaotic turbid air around Ji Wushuang dissipate, but even the soil beneath her feet gradually faded from crimson to gray-brown.
Those lives hidden deep in the soil, moving forward unyieldingly, also seize every opportunity to break out of the ground and bloom into a green at her feet.
Such a "miracle" stunned the "people" who had already taken out their weapons and were ready to "kill people and loot".
——What…what is this?!
——Isn’t the Guixu ruins a dead place?
——Why, why is there life?!
Ji Wushuang also noticed these lush flowers and plants. She raised her eyebrows in surprise and took several steps to the side. The plants along the way also flourished inch by inch with her steps.
Ji Wushuang thought of Zhu Yan's words and immediately understood that this was the power of the Fusang tree.
Fusang, Jianmu, Ruomu... Jianmu is the pillar of the universe, Fusang is the master of Qian's rising in the east, Ruomu is the master of Kun's sinking in the west.
In other words, Fusang wood is the wood of "life", while Ruo wood is the wood of "darkness".
Ji Wushuang's mouth twitched slightly, and he sent a voice message to Fusang Mu: [Xiao Sang, can you hold back your strength for a moment?]
Fusangmu looked drunk and said in a muffled voice, "Master, this is not only my power, but also yours. If you want to control it, you have to rely on yourself."
Her power?
Ji Wushuang was silent for a moment, then gently raised his hand and clenched it. Sure enough, the power of "life" immediately dissipated without a trace. The chaotic turbid air that had been forced back by Ji Wushuang attacked again. Not only did the grass and trees wither instantly, but even the soil was polluted again.
Everything happened so fast that the people present thought that the "life" they had just felt was just an illusion.
But they happened to see the same shock in their companions' eyes.
This also means...
The vitality and prosperity are real.
It is also true that it withers instantly.
Who is this?
Is it the god who controls life?
All the "people" looked up and stared at Ji Wushuang, but this time there was no murderous intent in their eyes, but expectation and hope.
They pushed and shoved, and finally a hunched woman slowly stepped out and said in a hoarse voice, "Excuse me, sir, what brings you here?"
Ji Wushuang smiled gently and said, "Excuse me, do you know Ju Mang?"
Ju Mang?!
Was it Lord Ju Mang who invited us?!
The woman's eyes widened and her body trembled with excitement: "Lord Ju Mang, he... he is still..." alive?
The second half of the sentence was not spoken, but Ji Wushuang understood it.
She said gently: "Don't worry, Ju Mang is not only alive, but also living well."
"Great, great..." Everyone jumped for joy, then finally remembered something and asked timidly, "Then, may I ask who you are..."
Ji Wushuang nodded: "You should have heard of me from Mo Lanxin."
Isn't the person Mo Lan is talking about... that idiotic "Sword Master"?!
"Are you the Sword Master that Mo Lanxin mentioned?!"
"Correct."
"!!!"
The "people" were not unaware of the undercurrents between Mo Lanxin and Ju Mang, but they always thought that it was because Prince Xiang had feelings for the goddess Wu Meng. After all, Mo Lanxin kept talking about "Lord Sword Master" and acted as if she would live and die for "Lord Sword Master".
They all thought that this "Lord Sword Master" was a man!
It is still the one that Molan loves but cannot have!
Unexpectedly, it was a woman?!
Ah... this...
So, has Lord Ju Mang been jealous for all these years in vain?
Everyone looked at each other, wanting to laugh but not daring to. Finally, they all bowed and said, "So it's Master Sword. Excuse me, what can I do for you?"
Ji Wushuang did not hide anything. He said "excuse me" and gently held the wrist of the hunchbacked woman. She was indeed as deeply corroded by Chaos as Ju Mang.
But what corroded Ju Mang was the aura of a special void monster in the Chaos Sea.
What corrupted the woman was only the chaos of the ruins.
The two appear to be the same on the surface, but in fact one is the "origin" and the other is the "derivative".
When Ji Wushuang was tempering the chaos for Ju Mang, he himself fell into a deep sleep for a period of time.
But Ji Wushuang didn't need to take any action to solve the chaos in these people's bodies, he could use pills to solve it.
I thought that by coming here, she could catch some thugs as powerful as Ju Mang.
It seems that this plan has been shelved.
Ji Wushuang spread out his palm, and a delicate jade bottle suddenly appeared. "This contains Chaos Spirit Pills, the quantity is very considerable. You can distribute it according to the number of people. If it's not enough, come to me again."
The "people" held their breath, stunned.
After an unknown amount of time, Ji Wushuang heard someone speak cautiously, "You mean... this... Chaos Spirit Pill?! But, but... the legendary Chaos Spirit Pill?"
"Yes." Ji Wushuang nodded. "After you eat it, as long as you don't stay here any longer, the chaos corrosion in your body will be cured."
After Ji Wushuang finished speaking, the crowd did not cheer as she had imagined. They just stared blankly at the jade bottle in her palm, not daring to move, nor wanting to move...
Ji Wushuang thought they didn't believe it was the "Chaos Spirit Pill," so he smiled and said, "I won't lie to you, because I made this pill myself. You saw how well I dispelled chaos just now, didn't you? So there's nothing wrong with this Chaos Spirit Pill. Take it. For Ju Mang's sake, I won't ask you to pay for it, so feel free to eat it."
There was another long silence before the hunched woman smiled bitterly and said, "Master Sword Master, it's not that we don't trust you, but... we don't know how to make a decision..."
Because apart from this Guixu ruins, they are all homeless "people".
Where can they go after leaving here?
Where is their way out?
If I take the Chaos Spirit Pill and continue to stay here, wouldn't I be letting down Lord Ju Mang and Lord Jian Zun?
They seem to have a way out, but the end of the way out... isn't it a cliff?
activa-t
