MTL - The Sword Named No Way Out-Chapter 73
Xu Shuangce didn't know what to say, so he raised the corner of his mouth heavily for a long time: "...So I'm such a selfless person?"
"The only two people who have tried to save me in this life are you and Gong Wei." Ying Kai smiled wryly, and said: "After the World Annihilation War, Gong Wei couldn't bear to fulfill the blood oath to kill me immediately, and tried every means to get rid of me." Killing obstacles, being exhausted but powerless. It just so happens that after you met Gong Wei when you ascended, you became more and more insane as you stayed in the upper heaven..."
Xu Shuangce asked suspiciously, "Am I insane?"
Ying Kai hesitated to speak, his expression seemed to be difficult to explain, and finally he just sighed and waved his hands without explaining: "So you simply said to Gong Wei in public, petitioning to go down to earth to bear the burden of killing, until the evil of killing is exhausted and then return to the heaven. It is something that has never happened since the beginning of the world, and the hardships inside can be imagined, but you still insist on doing it.”
"You have never been judged by simple selflessness or selfishness, but only do what you think is right, don't care about other people's evaluation, and even disdain to know the world's opinions. This is the true sense of no worries." Ying Kai shook his head, his eyes were full of exhaustion: "But I am the complete opposite of you, so I live a very painful life, whether I become a **** or a human being."
"..."
Ying Kai was probably not used to showing this gesture, so he turned from the door and faced Xu Shuangce directly: "It's meaningless to say these things now. But I still want to ask - where did you first find out that something was wrong with me?" ? Just because the butterfly died and dreamed of life?"
There seems to be something invisible between the two that has been quietly changed, and they can never go back to the past.
Xu Shuangce said slowly: "No, from ascending to Xiantai."
"Ascension to Xiantai?"
"It's not me but you who want to ascend in this world. Do you still remember when Yu Chirui scolded Gong Wei's nonsense on the Shengxiantai?" Xu Shuangce paused, and said, "That's because no one believed that you were Bei Yuan, and everyone thought that Gong Wei was just It’s just a monster who wants to kill the leader of the Immortal League. On the contrary, Ruo Gongwei predicted that the person who will destroy the world after the ascension is replaced by me. I’m afraid everyone will be skeptical, thinking that I look more like I will do such a thing. people."
Ying Kai froze for a while, then laughed at himself: "I didn't expect the flaw to be exposed here... I should have let you see what happened on the Ascension to Immortal Terrace."
Xu Shuangce sneered, and asked, "In reality, you want to build the Tongtian Avenue because you have long remembered that you are Beiyuan?"
Unexpectedly, Ying Kai shook his head and said, "Not at all. The matter of forcibly opening the Tianmen was just following the general trend of Taoism at that time."
No one has ascended for thousands of years, and the anxiety of monks in the world has reached its peak. Therefore, hundreds of schools of Xuanmen work together to build a sky-reaching long stage, and Ying Kai, who is the most hopeful to ascend to the sky, will try it. If he can ascend to the sky smoothly, it will be a great hope for all monks.
Xu Shuangce had doubts in his heart: "Then how do you remember your identity now?"
Ying Kai said: "During this period of time, I have been dreaming that I was roasted by karma, and I vaguely remembered it, but I don't know why." He raised his chin towards the round table, "I didn't really remember everything until I saw it."
Xu Shuangce looked down and saw that it was the bronze wedge box.
With all the clues finally coming together, Xu Shuangce's face suddenly changed.
It wasn't until now that he finally understood why Guixiu told Du Kaixun that "the key to returning to the present world is buried in the brain of the Mieshi soldier" - this bronze wedge box is sealed with Beiyuan's evil thoughts, and Ying Kai can only touch it personally Only in order to restore the memory of these thousands of years, will he want to break the illusion and return to the present world.
If you think about it one step further, and move the time back to earlier times: Guixiu used Bai Shui's desire for revenge to obtain Bingrensi, used Bingrensi to control the corpse of Fahua Xianzun, and used this corpse to arouse Part of Ying Kai's memory of the World-Exterminating War; then it led Du Kaixun, Bai Xun, Xu Shuangce, Gong Wei, Ying Kai and others all to the abyss of Tianmen Pass, gathered three drops of blood, and successfully awakened the World-Exterminating Soldiers , and finally got the bronze box.
Every step is carefully calculated, and every step is immediate.
From the very beginning, Ghost Cultivator's goal has been aimed at Ying Kai, and only with the help of Ying Kai's power can it break this dream!
The ghost cultivator's identity was already revealed at this point, and a chill suddenly rose from the bottom of Xu Shuangce's heart.
"...I won't let you break Die Si Meng Sheng." He said gently.
"Do you really know what you're talking about?" Ying Kai's eyes seemed to have a sneer, "Only by completely destroying the eyes of the array can this dream end safely, and all the monks in the world, including Gong Wei, can return to reality alive. Otherwise, once the dream Total collapse, everyone will be wiped out - do you want me to remind you again who is included in this 'everyone'?"
"..."
"Including Liu Xuzhi, including Wen Xiuyang, including Yu Chixiao, including the Changsheng you watched growing up, and including yourself." Ying Kai paused, and said, "Including...Gong Wei who is waiting for you to go back in the Forbidden Palace .”
Xu Shuangce's face has never been so ugly, Ying Kai raised his eyebrows: "This world, tens of thousands of monks from the immortal sect will be buried with me alone, is it really worth it?"
The two looked at each other for a long time, Xu Shuangce finally closed his eyes, and said: "There is always another way, Ying Kai. I will go to Gong Wei and persuade him to unlock the Butterfly Death Dream Survival Technique, so that everyone can come back alive. In this world. As long as you are willing to explain the situation to the Xuanmen Baijia, there is still room for change in this matter, at least Tongtian Dao has been completely destroyed..."
"Not destroyed."
Xu Shuangce's expression froze.
Ying Kai said regretfully: "The timing is just right for you to ascend to Xiantai to kill Gongwei. He has not had time to completely destroy the foundation of the magic circle. So after returning to the present world, I can still try to create a sky-reaching long step."
Xu Shuangce clenched his five fingers in the sleeves of his robe, and opened his gloomy and sharp eyes in a short while: "In the dream, the master of the realm will not really die. Do you think breaking the realm is as simple as stabbing the only sword in the palace?"
Ying Kai said calmly, "It's just that you didn't find the right way to destroy the formation."
Eyes?
Xu Shuangce suddenly remembered something, and realized something like lightning in his mind: Gong Wei's eyes!
At this moment, there was a loud noise in the sky outside the hall without warning.
boom—
The entire ground shook suddenly, tables and chairs were displaced, and porcelain fell and shattered. Xu Shuangce hurried to the window to have a look outside, suddenly there was an unprecedented huge gap in the sky, and the fierce wind swept towards the world.
"The demon wind is coming, the demon wind is coming!"
"Help!"
"Mother, mother!"
…
The running people turned into peach petals amidst their cries, and with a crimson aura, they flew up into the sky and disappeared behind the deep cave. But this bit of spiritual power is of no help to the whole world, further away the sky is still collapsing one after another, and the terrifying black hole has been extending to the horizon!
With a bang, Ying Kai flicked his sleeves and closed the window, and the cries for help disappeared immediately.
"I forgot to tell you," he said lightly, "Actually, I have always hated hearing people cry, and now I can finally close the window."
Xu Shuangce clenched his teeth, turned and ran towards the door, but Ying Kai stopped him with his hand: "Want to infuse Gong Wei with spiritual power? It's useless, it's about to collapse completely."
"Step aside!"
Ying Kai smiled: "How many people do you think will recover their memories in this world?"
Xu Shuangce frowned, and instantly stretched out his hand to the helpless in Ying Kai's palm. But Ying Kai reacted faster, and the two exchanged dozens of strokes like lightning, the energy criss-crossing, and the walls, stone pillars, and floor tiles burst into pieces one after another. Amidst the loud bang, Xu Shuangce slammed into the screen with his back, and the heavy jade screen was instantly turned into powder. He flew out without even a beat, smashing half of the wall down!
"I'm afraid your spiritual power is less than 30% of the usual." The smoke and dust dispersed, and Ying Kai stepped forward: "If you continue like this, I'm afraid you will die before the illusion collapses."
Xu Shuangce wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his index finger, his pupils were cold, and Ying Kai suddenly felt bad when they looked at each other.
But before he had time to turn around, the gust of wind had already arrived behind him, rushing straight at the Fu Nai He sword in his palm—it was Xu Shuangce again!
The "Xu Shuangce" in front of him who was wiping blood with his fingers disappeared with a bang, it was actually a substitute technique!
Ying Kai's pupils shrank, and it was too late to speak, Xu Shuangce's fingertips behind him had touched the hilt of the sword, and the sword was about to be unlocked and unsheathed.
But the moment the two of them crossed their bodies, the wind lifted Ying Kai's sleeve, revealing a broken lens deeply embedded in the flesh and blood of his arm, which was instantly reflected in Xu Shuangce's eyes, on which the word "Qu" was impressively engraved with blood.
In a flash, Xu Shuangce recognized it.
In the deep winter of the twenty-eighth year of Taiyi, half a year after Gong Wei's "death", a huge mirror coffin was found abandoned in a pine forest deep in Mount Dai. The mirror coffin is half a foot high and weighs over a thousand jun. On the lid of the coffin is engraved with an ancient seal symbol in blood. Only half of the surname of the owner of the coffin remains, "Qu"!
A smoke-like sharp claw rose from the mirror, grabbed Xu Shuangce's helpless hand, and clicked!
The severe pain spread upwards, Xu Shuangce broke free suddenly, stepped back a few steps, and bent his elbows in the opposite direction. He gritted his teeth without changing his face, and took his arm back with a click. At this moment, he saw a large puff of cold and evil black smoke rising from the mirror. figure.
Gray robe with a hood, no head and no face, countless scarlet light dots flickering where the face should be, and holding a monster blood sword in the sleeve of the robe, it is that ghost cultivator!
"..." Xu Shuangce turned to Ying Kai, with chills in every word: "Did you open the mirror coffin in Dingxian Mausoleum?"
Ying Kai looked back calmly: "It's not over yet."
I saw that Ghost Xiu's body was still gradually changing, the smoke condensed into a solid body, white hands stretched out from under the gray robe, his body was elongated, tall and thin; the facial features and head and face emerged from the hood, it turned out to be a boy of eighteen or nineteen years old face.
His skin was pale and his appearance was handsome, with a strange scarlet light hidden in the depths of his eyes, and a somewhat careless smile on the corner of his mouth. This appearance is at least five points similar to Gong Wei's, but taller, with broad shoulders and long legs, and there is a cold and powerful sense of oppression in his laziness.
The gray robe fell from the sky and turned into a black dress, with gorgeous flowers of the other shore embroidered on the corner of the belted robe.
At the same time, the unnatural red film on the sword in his palm finally faded, and a real **** cold light flashed.
"It's finally been released. It's really not easy." He said lazily, but with a deep and gorgeous tone: "The moment Die Si Meng Sheng activated, even I thought I was going to die."
Xu Shuangce's face was as cold as ice, and he said softly: "I thought you had been driven into the deepest part of Huangquan by the Xuanjing River...Ghost Prince."
The boy flicked his sleeves with his fingertips, paused when he heard the sound, looked up at him, and then suddenly rolled his eyes.
"My master's bones are rare in the world. It took a lot of effort to invite him into the cage I carefully built. But now he can't live or die. I can finally feel relieved."
Ghost Prince put his hands behind his back, he obviously has that kind of aggressive appearance, but his smile is very pleasant and friendly, this strong contrast makes people even more creepy: "I haven't seen you for many years, don't come here without any problems, God of East Heaven?"
Xu Shuangce's thoughts turned, and the ring finger in his sleeve dipped in blood and quickly wrote a word on his palm, but his face remained calm: "In this world, the Immortal League is so eager to build the Dao of Tongtian, is it because you are secretly manipulating it behind the scenes?"
Ghost Prince squinted his eyes: "What do you think?"
"What's your relationship with Gong Wei?"
Ghost Prince's expression remained unchanged: "Guess?"
At this time, the rumbling and tremors pierced through the heaven and earth, but they came from the northern sky—just as soon as we spoke, another piece of heaven and earth collapsed, and it was in the direction of Cangyangzong!
Xu Shuangce wrote the last stroke, and flew forward. Ying Kaiji's speed of change was unparalleled, and he hid his helplessness behind his back with his hand, but Xu Shuangce feinted a shot, and pressed the **** palm on his chest, it was a "forbidden"!
Ying Kai's movements stopped abruptly, and his whole body froze on the spot.
It was too late to say it, and then it was fast, the ghost prince slashed at him with a sword, Xu Shuang rubbed the edge of the sword and dodged to avoid it, a corner of Cangyang Sect Master's robe was cut off silently.
It is only a thousandth of a second away, and it is absolutely impossible to regain the helplessness at this moment. Xu Shuangce retreated to the gate of the palace like lightning, and at the same time pressed the ghost prince Tianling Gai with his palm, the red light of the forbidden curse in his palm, unexpectedly, the palm directly passed through his head in the next moment, and he pressed it empty!
"Ah, I'm sorry." The Ghost Prince said apologetically as if remembering something, "I'm worried that Master has no one to take care of me, my body has already been left in the underworld to accompany him."
The fierceness of his sword was completely opposite to his expression. The blood sword cut towards Xu Shuangce's throat from bottom to top, and his body and head were about to be separated!
when!
The blood sword was blocked heavily, and the sound was deafening, it was Ding Shanhai!
The scene stood still for a moment, and Xu Shuangce's surprised eyes reflected the two interlaced swords.
I saw that Ying Kai broke free from the forbidden spell of blood, even though his muscles and bones were cracked, blood was bleeding from the corner of his mouth, and the hand holding the sword hilt was shattered to the bone.
"Xu Shuangce is my only brother," Ying Kai stared at the ghost prince with a cold gaze like the edge of a sword: "Did you forget, Qu Xi?"
The ghost prince's always happy expression changed slightly until now, but he immediately returned to normal, politely making a gesture of invitation: "Oh, I'm sorry."
As soon as the Ghost Prince finished speaking, Xu Shuangce stepped back sideways, but the blood curse on Ying Kai's body had been completely broken. The two fought in an instant, Ding Shanhai brushed close to Xu Shuangce's ear several times, and the sword energy exploded the surrounding wall decorations to pieces!
Ghost Prince Qu Xi stood not far away leisurely watching the battle with his hands behind his back, and suddenly said: "To tell you the truth, God of the East Heaven, I haven't thanked you yet."
Xu Shuangce knew that he was just speaking to disturb, so he concentrated his attention without answering, and dodged to avoid Ding Shanhai's sword edge, and the stone pillar behind him immediately drew a deep sword arc that was more than ten feet long.
"Gong Wei has fought with me for tens of thousands of years without losing the wind, and his meticulous mind is rare in the world. Before he opened the Butterfly Dream, he sealed me in the mirror coffin, which prevented me from appearing in the illusion for the first 28 years. , until you stabbed him to death cleanly on Shengxiantai."
Dingshanhai sword energy drew a long mark on Xu Shuangce's left arm, and blood spurted out in an arc!
"He lost control of the illusion during the sixteen years of his 'death', and I was able to force the mirror coffin to appear in Daishan. However, before I could find a way to get out of the coffin and find the leader of the alliance, I was sealed in Dingxian Mausoleum."
The ghost prince himself probably felt that his fate was too bad, he sighed with a smile, and suddenly changed the topic: "——Speaking of which, I have been sealed in the mirror coffin, guess why I suddenly appeared in Linjiang City a few months ago gone?"
In fact, Xu Shuangce already vaguely had the answer in his heart, and he was as frosty as Ying Kaiji's stormy pursuit, without saying a word.
"Ah, yes." The Ghost Prince smiled, "Because after being stabbed to death by you in the dream, Gong Wei in reality finally ran out of fuel, and his control over the dream has been reduced to the lowest level, and even the mirror coffin is covered with a mirror. The seal can no longer be maintained. All this is thanks to your decisive attack on Shengxiantai..."
Xu Shuangce said sharply, "Shut up!"
He forcibly hit the mountain and sea sword, and pointed at the ghost prince through the air, and his spiritual power shot out!
Ghost Prince tilted his head, and easily avoided the spiritual power: "Do you know why Gong Wei is so anxious to expel you from the dream?"
Xu Shuangce forcibly blocked Ying Kai's sword with one hand, and pointed out the fierceness to the ghost prince one after another with the other hand, but the ghost prince calmly avoided them all, and his smiling voice remained unchanged: "Because you are the only one who has returned to the present world, and the sword that is still in his The reluctance in his heart can unlock the lock, and his chest will be released in an instant, and the dream will collapse in an instant, and he will finally be freed from the long pain of supporting Die Si Meng Sheng. Who knows that not only did you not die, but you also cruelly gave him As a result, he had to continue to run the dream for another sixteen years. During these sixteen years, his body in this world was in extreme pain, and he gritted his teeth in the agony of mental exhaustion every minute and every moment..."
Xu Shuangce suddenly waved his sleeves: "I tell you to shut up!"
The violent spiritual flow rushed towards the ghost prince, pushing the latter heavily towards the stone pillar; at the same time, Ding Shanhai slashed his head, and Xu Shuangce was about to catch it, but Ying Kai threw something with his other hand, as if cutting a long and narrow hole in the air. Deep chasm.
Xu Shuangce finally had no time to dodge, and he recognized the magic weapon in an instant.
—Mustard pot!
The rift came across the head and covered the face, covering Xu Shuangce in an instant, and the left, right, and back sides instantly turned into a closed space of darkness and nothingness. Only the front side is still connected to the normal scene in the hall, but Xu Shuangce stretched out his hand and pushed it, but it didn't move at all, it was tightly locked by the transparent barrier.
Xu Shuangce roared sharply, "Open it!"
Ying Kai took half a step back.
Ghost Prince stood up from the mess, patted the dust on his robe easily, and said with a smile: "You are still the same, God of the East. I can't help but want to inquire about everything about Jingxian, even if it's not good at all. All of them may stimulate you to the point of becoming uncontrollable and becoming obsessed."
Xu Shuangce gritted his teeth, closed his eyes for a moment, his face gradually calmed down, and when he opened his eyes again, he had changed back to the ice-cold Sect Master Cangyang.
Ying Kai suffered joint injuries all over his body when he broke free from the forbidden spell, and the right arm holding the sword was the most severely injured. Xu Shuangce looked away from the pool of blood on the ground, stopped looking at Prince Gui, and said in a deep voice, "Ying Kai, you are obviously not such a person."
Ying Kai said, "I am."
There was a kind of calmness and calmness in his voice, and he asked: "Do you know why you and I were the only one who was born to kill the obstacle when we controlled the water? Because you didn't come to control the water from the beginning, you came to save me of."
Xu Shuangce was taken aback.
"Tens of thousands of people knelt down and begged the immortal gate. I couldn't bear the pressure and wanted to control the water, but you said that this is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster. Even if you want to save it, you shouldn't do it like this. After a fierce dispute, you walked away, but when it really arrived The moment I was about to be drowned in the flood, you suddenly appeared again, and in the end we both died in battle in the surging Taihu Lake, and together we welcomed Gong Wei who opened the gate of heaven." Ying Kai smiled sadly: "You all once Tried to save me more than once, you just forgot now."
Xu Shuangce seemed to be immersed in ice water, and said in a low voice for a long time: "But it has never been successful from the beginning to the end."
"Yes, because my killing obstacle has a long history and is deeply rooted..." Ying Kai's eyes showed a little self-mockery: "From the first time the people kneeling in front of the mountain gate shouted 'It's better to see death than to save a pig or a dog'." It starts at that moment."
boom!
Xu Shuangce suddenly pressed his palm heavily on the transparent barrier, but before he could speak, Ying Kai flicked his sleeves, pushing Xu Shuangce to the darkness behind him with an invisible force, and the mustard pot suddenly closed!
"I'm sorry, Shuang Ce." Ying Kai's voice seemed to come from far away, calm and tired: "This time, neither of you need to save me again."
The author has something to say:
Well, the original text of this chapter has already stated that the ghost cultivator has always been the ghost prince Qu Xie, why are you still guessing who the ghost cultivator is? ? ?

Ying Kai is euphemistic: Ever since you met the mirror fairy, you have become more and more crazy blablabla...
