Chapter 405(1/2)
"Obsessed?"
Chu Chen sighed and shook his head.
According to ancient legends, many powerful men traveled across mountains, rivers, and countless corners of the Wuxuan Continent, just to find traces of the legendary Zixiao Palace.
Maybe someone once succeeded, but died, and turned into an obsession, lingering here.
"He is a person from ancient times."
Chu Chen stared at it, because this man cried out sadly, "After the ancient times, the heaven and the earth became a cage." This sentence was only spread to the world after the ancient times came to an end.
Moreover, this so-called spread is only limited to a few people. Those who have not reached a certain level of cultivation cannot have access to these things.
"Should we not go in?"
Hu Xiaoling hid behind Chu Chen and shivered. The floating humanoid shadow was so scary, like a ghost.
"Are you still afraid of ghosts? Isn't the fox spirit possession technique of your fox clan a ghost-like method?" Chu Chen glanced at her and said angrily.
"Who said I'm scared?" Hu Xiaoling stubbornly refused to admit it.
However, no matter how successful her mouth was, her body was still trembling.
Chu Chen stepped forward, and Hu Xiaoling suddenly screamed.
But Chu Chen had no intention of stopping. He took a few steps and walked into the gate of the Taoist temple.
Although Hu Xiaoling kept shouting, she didn't dare to let go of Chu Chen's sleeves, so she followed him in.
"Don't go there!"
Hu Xiaoling was so frightened that she almost cried, with a hint of crying in her voice.
Because Chu Chen actually took him directly to the man who was crying like a ghost.
"I know you."
Chu Chen walked up to the human figure and suddenly said something like this.
Hu Xiaoling was stunned for a moment, secretly opened her eyes, and was surprised to see Chu Chen talking to a ghost.
However, the humanoid figure seemed not to have seen them at all, and was still there mourning and crying to itself, shouting that after ancient times, the world became a prison.
"You were so high-spirited back then. You were hailed as the genius who finally hoped to become a true god after thousands of years in ancient times. Did you end up dying here?"
Chu Chen was like a man talking to himself, because the human figure ignored him at all.
Finally, Chu Chen sighed and walked forward directly, taking Hu Xiaoling with him and passing through the human-shaped shadow.
This is really just a shadow, not a soul body, just an insignificant trace of obsession in the long river of time...
"who is he?"
After walking a certain distance, Hu Xiaoling turned around and saw the ghost-like figure still crying in grief, and she couldn't help but curiously asked Chu Chen.
"Sword God Xu Tiankuo." Chu Chen said calmly.
"What!? It's him?"
Hu Xiaoling was shocked and couldn't help but exclaimed again, "There is such a person recorded in the ancient books of the Fox clan. It is said that at that time tens of thousands of years ago, he was the most powerful person in the world and was said to be the most promising person to become a true god since ancient times.
people!"
Hu Xiaoling was very excited because that was a legendary figure.
But what surprised her even more was that Chu Chen actually knew this person. How could he, a teenager, know the sword god Xu Tiankuo?
"Have you seen a portrait of the sword god Xu Tiankuo somewhere? It must be like this, that's why you recognized him when you saw him." Hu Xiaoling explained to herself.
But Chu Chen didn't say much and continued walking towards the nearest building in the Taoist temple.
This is an attic. When Chu Chen and Hu Xiaoling came here, the attic door was open.
This attic is much larger than an ordinary attic, as if an ordinary attic has been enlarged ten times.
Inside the open door, nothing could be seen, only empty darkness and nothingness, as if there was no end.
Even Chu Chen's reincarnation eye couldn't see anything more.
"Xu Tiankuo was a character in my fourth life. Later, after my fifth reincarnation, I heard that Xu Tiankuo was missing. There were no rumors that he had become a true god."
"Unexpectedly, he died here without leaving even a corpse?"
Chu Chen felt a little emotional in his heart. The years were long and the sea was full of vicissitudes. He had lived for a long time and traveled through the long river of history. His old friends in the past were no longer there. He couldn't help but feel an indescribable loneliness and loneliness in his heart.
There is a legend circulating in Wuxuan Continent that since ancient times, there has been no true god.
In fact, during his second life, the ancient era had just ended, and Mei Linghan became a true god.
But just because she was a woman, later generations hid this history, so only a very few people knew that in the years after ancient times, there was a true god, and that was Empress Ling Han.
"boom!"
Suddenly, the entire Taoist temple shook, and a majestic aura enveloped the entire Taoist temple, sealing off the space.
Along with it, there is a huge pressure, like a mountain pressing on the back, making people unable to breathe.
At the same time, Chu Chen's reincarnation eyes saw that inside the attic in front of him, there seemed to be wisps of purple air floating, and the hazy purple air was like mist, appearing and disappearing.
"ah!"
Hu Xiaoling screamed. This was the first time she had screamed.
Because her and Chu Chen's bodies were out of control and drifted towards the open door of the attic.
"boom!"
The moment he entered the attic, the door slammed shut, and the surrounding area was pitch black, with only wisps of purple air swimming around.
"Buzz!"
At this moment, the nine golden lines in Chu Chen's reincarnation eyes suddenly shone brightly.
The nine golden lines merged into one, turning into a golden vertical line in the center of the pupil that turned into a black roulette wheel.
This is the prelude to the second magical power of the Samsara Eye, the God-killing Technique.
However, Chu Chen, as the master of the Samsara Eye, knew very well that he was not going to use the god-killing technique.
Rather, the Samsara Eye was affected by the purple energy in this attic and resonated with it.
"your eyes……"
It was only at this time that Hu Xiaoling discovered the difference in Chu Chen's eyes.
"Don't ask too many questions." Chu Chen's voice was very indifferent.
Hu Xiaoling's heart trembled inexplicably, and she immediately lowered her head, not daring to continue looking into Chu Chen's eyes.
Because after just one glance, she felt that her soul was about to be swallowed up. Her intuition told him that Chu Chen was very dangerous at this moment, which made her feel fear from the bottom of her heart.
At the same time, the entire space in the attic changed in Chu Chen's eyes.
Previously, when the Samsara Eye was open for the first turn, he could see nothing but the hazy purple energy.
At this moment, in addition to the wisps of purple energy still swimming in the attic, Chu Chen also saw something else.
For example, he saw a wandering white skeleton, which was walking back and forth like an undead but did not make any sound.
Suddenly, the white bones seemed to have discovered Chu Chen, and a pair of empty bone eyes looked at where Chu Chen and Hu Xiaoling were.
He came over.
Except for Chu Chen, Hu Xiaoling didn't notice it.
"ah!"
Hu Xiaoling suddenly screamed again, the hairs all over her body stood up, and she got goosebumps.
Because when the bones came closer, she also saw what the bones looked like.
The white bones on this skeleton are as white as jade, as if they can last for a long time and remain immortal.
"Nine lives, nine patterns, nine revolutions..."
White Bones suddenly opened his mouth, opened and closed his jaws, and uttered human words.
"What do you know?" Chu Chen asked, staring at the white bones in front of him.
Because of the six words spoken by Bai Gu, Hu Xiaoling could not understand the meaning at all except for him, who practiced the "Ninth Life Reincarnation Jue".
"Nine lifetimes are difficult, nine lines are completed, nine turns are like ascending to the sky..."
The bones seemed to be talking to themselves, and the voice seemed to come from Jiuyou, which was gloomy and pitiful.
"Nine is the end, but it is not the end."
Suddenly, Bai Gu shook his head, turned and left.
Chu Chen was stunned on the spot. He felt that the bones had answered his question, but it seemed that there was no answer.
Just as he was about to open his mouth to call out to the other party, the skeleton's back disappeared into the darkness, as if it had never appeared at all, like a dream.
"What the hell was that thing just now?" Hu Xiaoling's whole body was almost pressed against Chu Chen's body.
To be continued...
