Chapter 865: The truth is revealed, the chess game wins or loses
"You mean, three secret realms appeared simultaneously in the outside world, attracting all the sects and divine dynasties in the world to come and rob them?"
"The demon tribe besieged Taihang Academy?"
"Something happened to Yun Zheng. I don't know why he suddenly became seriously injured and was dying. Did Xiao Ping'an take Suixing and the others with him?"
After listening to Du Xianjian's story.
Gu Xiu's expression also became completely serious.
According to Du Xianjian's story, during the twenty days when he was overcoming the calamity of lighting the lamp, tremendous changes had taken place in the outside world.
First, the Canglong Secret Realm was shattered, but suddenly, without any warning, three other secret realms appeared in the outside world. When these three secret realms appeared, they were accompanied by strange phenomena in heaven and earth. It was said that the phantoms of three divine beasts were born, attracting masters from all over the world to come out and compete for opportunities.
Secondly, the demon tribe that had previously invaded and attacked Zhongzhou suddenly sent out the four demon emperors this time, marching straight into Zhongzhou, and their target was the Taihang Academy, which they had now surrounded.
The last one is what Gu Xiu is most concerned about.
Originally, Xiao Ping'an had no intention of paying attention to what was happening in the outside world. She and Yun Zheng had been guarding Gu Xiu.
But no one knew whether it was because of the appearance of the three secret realms or because the demon tribe besieged Taihang, Yun Zheng was suddenly seriously injured without any warning. His whole body's strength was leaking out madly, and even the life essence in his body was leaking out madly. In just one hour, he almost aged as if his end was near.
Shattered Star and the others discovered that the power and life essence that had been drained from Yun Zheng were all heading towards a place outside.
In order to save Yun Zheng, Suixing, Little Black Monkey and Xiaoyaopei, the three saints, took Xiao Ping'an and Yun Zheng with them and planned to go and check the situation.
As for the Sword of Crossing Immortals.
He was left here to wait for Gu Xiu to wake up.
"Roar~!"
Just as Gu Xiu was listening to Duxianjian's story, a loud roar that seemed to be able to shatter a person's eardrums suddenly came from the deep pit in front of Gu Xiu. Gu Xiu frowned and walked forward, looking down into the deep pit.
But see.
Inside the deep pit, the chains that were originally wrapped around the leader of the Holy Feather Clan were now all inside the deep pit. And among these densely packed chains, the azure dragon that Gu Xiu had seen before was also inside the deep pit, with chains wrapped around its body.
When Gu Xiu looked at it, its single eye also looked at Gu Xiu.
They looked at each other without saying anything, but perhaps because Gu Xiu had taken away one of the other's eyes, he and the azure dragon actually established some kind of communication. At least with just that one glance, Gu Xiu immediately understood what the azure dragon meant.
It is not bound by the chains here. On the contrary, it is using the power of the divine dragon sealed here to strengthen itself. It even has the momentum to transform from a dragon into a dragon. It seems that it will not be long before it can completely complete the last step and transform into a divine dragon.
But as a price.
It replaced the mission of the previous leader of the Holy Feather Clan and would become the main formation to seal this place. Gu Xiu could even see through its body that there was a huge gate that looked like a dream behind it, and in front of the gate, four statues were faintly entangled between the chains.
Those are statues of the four sacred beasts, including the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird and Black Tortoise.
but.
At this moment, the Azure Dragon statue was full of cracks, and the azure dragon was currently located in front of the Azure Dragon statue. Gu Xiu could see that a large amount of power was constantly dissipating from the Azure Dragon statue, but most of it was absorbed by the azure dragon.
obviously.
The Azure Dragon Secret Realm was broken, and the Azure Dragon statue was also shattering at an accelerated rate. The azure dragon appeared here at this moment to absorb the power of the statue and maintain the existence of the seal.
But this azure dragon cannot hold on for long.
Because the other three mythical beast statues next to the Azure Dragon statue also have cracks on their bodies, and the cracks are still growing. It seems that once these cracks spread throughout their bodies, the divine gate they are guarding will be completely opened.
The Three Seas of Sin sealed behind.
Will also be born!
"You mean..."
"What the Holy Feather Clan's leader told me before wasn't true?"
"In fact, even if I didn't come and the Canglong Secret Realm wasn't broken, the seal of the Four Divine Beasts wouldn't be able to hold out for too long. Sooner or later, it would all collapse. Moreover, the power left by the Four Divine Beasts here would be converted from the power that originally sealed the Three Yuans Sea of Sin into nutrients for the Three Yuans Sea of Sin, and would be absorbed by the Three Yuans Sea of Sin."
Gu Xiu was a little surprised when he sensed what the azure dragon meant.
He heard the truth.
Finally, I truly understood the true connection between the Three Realms Sea of Sin and the Four Divine Beasts Secret Realm.
The Three Realms Sea of Sin does exist, and it does contain the ultimate evil. The Four Sacred Beasts sealed the Three Realms Sea of Sin here in the past, but this seal cannot be maintained forever. It can be seen from the cracks on the statues of the four sacred beasts that this is proof that the restriction has loosened under the erosion of the long years.
Worse.
The Three Yuans Sea of Sin is also constantly absorbing the power of the four sacred beasts.
These powers are extremely powerful. Just seeing that the Canglong Secret Realm has even attracted the covetousness of the Saint Feather Clan's overlords shows how terrifying the power within is. It can be said that once these powers are truly absorbed by the Three Enclosures Sea of Sin, not only will the Three Enclosures Sea of Sin be born, but even after it is born, the Three Enclosures Sea of Sin will be even more powerful than ever before.
From this point of view, whether Gu Xiu comes here or not, the Three Yuans Sea of Sin will be born.
The only difference is that.
If Gu Xiu had not come, it might indeed take a long time for the Three Yuans Sin Sea to appear. But correspondingly, the Three Yuans Sin Sea that appeared at that time would be the Three Yuans Sin Sea that absorbed the sealing power of the entire Four Divine Beasts. If the Three Yuans Sin Sea appeared, it would really be detrimental to this world.
By that time, no one can stop Haoyu!
Now that Gu Xiu has arrived, he seems to be the culprit who caused the collapse of the Canglong Secret Realm. Even the other three secret realms have appeared at the same time, which will inevitably speed up the emergence of the Sanyuan Sin Sea.
But there are differences. At least the power in the secret realm of the four sacred beasts will not be completely taken away by the Three Yuans Sin Sea. At least the power in the secret realm of the Azure Dragon in front of us is absorbed by the azure dragon, not the Three Yuans Sin Sea.
This is also what the Azure Dragon told Gu Xiu.
No one can judge whether it is right or wrong. At least for the azure dragon, Gu Xiu’s arrival is even a blessing from fate.
And after listening to this.
However, Gu Xiu couldn't help but feel the same confusion he had at the beginning.
The game between the man in black robe and the Master.
What are they each doing for?
even……
Who wins? Who loses?
"Buzz!"
At this moment, the Sword of Crossing Immortals suddenly began to buzz again, and then a small bowl appeared in front of Gu Xiu.
This is the magic weapon that Xiao Ping'an obtained from Yuchi Chunlei. It was also what Xiao Ping'an gave to Duxian Sword when he took Yun Zheng away, asking it to help pass it on to him.
Looking at this small bowl at this moment, just like Xiao Ping'an and even Yuchi Chunlei before, he couldn't see what was special about this small bowl.
but……
"You mean, Xiao Ping'an said that when the Canglong Secret Realm collapsed, this small bowl absorbed some imperceptible power?"
"This kind of power absorption continued until the Canglong Secret Realm became like this, but the power absorbed inside disappeared?"
"I can't even see the broken stars, what on earth is this little bowl?"
Gu Xiu was surprised. After getting the confirmation from the Immortal Sword, he carefully observed the small bowl in his hand again.
The Canglong Secret Realm collapsed, and some power was absorbed by the small bowl.
After the collapse, the power absorbed by the small bowl disappeared like a stone sinking into the sea?
This small bowl...
Will it be the key to the game between the two?
but……
What is the role?
After pondering for a while, Gu Xiu didn't have much of a clue, so he could only put away the small bowl, glanced at this empty special space again, then took out a pot of wine and poured it in front of him.
The Cangming Holy Land has completely disappeared, with no trace left, and the Lord of the Cangming Holy Land who helped him at the last moment is also gone with his Cangming Holy Land.
The smoke disappeared.
From then on, there was no trace of the Cangming Holy Land in the world, and perhaps few people even knew that there was once a realm in this world called Cangming.
After finishing the whole pot of sake, Gu Xiu clasped his fists and bowed towards the void.
Then there was no more hesitation.
He turned around and headed towards the exit gate of the Canglong Secret Realm not far away. The disappearance of the Cangming Holy Land was related to its weakness. Gu Xiu did not want Haoyu, where he was, to become the next Cangming Holy Land in the future.
Rushing out of the gate, Gu Xiu came to the palace entrance again.
Look back.
Gu Xiu discovered that the palace gate he had come out of before was now accompanied by a halo of light spreading out, and in the blink of an eye it turned into an ordinary stone wall. Then this magnificent palace also began to turn into an ordinary cave.
Gu Xiu noticed.
Even the lonely grave in the corner that he had personally built for the unknown predecessor had become an ordinary stone in the cave at this moment.
This senior once spent his entire life but still couldn't get in.
Now his lonely grave has merged with the former Canglong Secret Realm. I don’t know if this can be considered as fulfilling his last wish.
"That flood dragon, when we see it again next time, it should have turned into a real dragon, right?" At this moment, a voice suddenly came.
Gu Xiu's eyelids jumped, and he suddenly turned his head to look in a direction where he clearly didn't sense anyone, but found that an old man sitting on a recliner holding a book had appeared there at some point in time.
Master!
He seemed to have been waiting for him here, but the strange thing was that when he came out just now, he seemed to have subconsciously ignored this direction. If the other party had not spoken, Gu Xiu would even suspect that he might not have noticed the other party at all.
This method is shocking.
"Originally, Yunlu was waiting for you here, but after thinking it over, I still want to see you in person." The teacher put down the book, looked at Gu Xiu seriously, and then smiled and said:
"Your soul lamp is lit perfectly."
"I heard that something big happened in Taihang Academy, and I thought that the teacher should be in the academy taking care of it now, but I didn't expect to see you here." Gu Xiu saluted with his fists.
"There are so many trivial matters in the academy, it's great to be able to steal a half day of leisure from the busy life." The teacher smiled slightly, and then changed the subject: "It seems that you already know many answers?"
“I know some things, but I can’t connect them.”
"But you still have doubts?"
"Yes."
"What are your doubts?"
"I want to know, Master, did you lose or win this time?" Gu Xiu asked.
The Master shook his head and said, "You are also a chess expert. You should understand that the gains and losses of one or two battles often do not determine the outcome of the entire game."
"But you didn't lose this game?" Gu Xiu asked.
The Master thought for a moment and said, "It's barely a draw."
"Where is the next battlefield?" Gu Xiu asked.
"Among the four great beasts, the Azure Dragon is the leader, followed by the White Tiger. If it were up to me to choose, the next battlefield would be in the White Tiger Secret Realm."
"Where are my disciples?"
"It is currently in the Suzaku Secret Realm, experiencing a catastrophe of life and death. Whether you go or not, you can't change anything. It has to rely on itself to weather this catastrophe."
"What if I want to go to the Suzaku Secret Realm now?"
"Of course, everything is in your hands."
The Master didn't seem surprised. Instead, he took out three teleportation jade slips and handed them to Gu Xiu. "Although you came out a little later than I expected, it doesn't affect the overall situation. The choice from now on is still in your hands."
Looking at the three teleportation jade slips in front of him, flashing with white, red and yellow light.
Gu Xiu had already extended his hand, but unexpectedly, he did not take it.
Instead, he suddenly asked:
"What if the younger generation doesn't choose?"
