Chapter 239 The Great Dream Returns 28
Several people were worried about Jiu Ning's safety. Even though she was too tired to open her eyes, Zhuo Yichen carried her on his back and went with her.
The four of them set out overnight and arrived at the foot of Kunlun Mountain at dawn. Looking at the endless mountain ranges, several of them climbed to the highest peak.
A suspension bridge appeared in front of everyone, and walking forward was the Kunlun Mountain Temple.
The temple before them was in extreme ruin, with broken steps and scattered rocks, and there was not even a trace of spiritual energy.
"Grandpa Yingzhao!"
Zhao Yuanzhou was the first to knock on the mountain gate, and soon an old man with white hair walked out from inside. This man was the mountain god Ying Zhao.
Zhao Yuanzhou happily handed over a cloth bag filled with his carefully selected walnuts, which was something he must bring back every time he came back.
Ying Zhao took the walnut with a smile and patted Zhao Yuanzhou's shoulder vigorously.
"Yes, I am much more energetic than before."
At this time, another person came out. He was smiling and dressed in middle-aged clothes. He looked at the two people reminiscing about the past and did not rush forward.
"Let me introduce you. This is the Mountain God Zhu Yin, and these two are Zhuo Yichen and Jiu Ning from the Bingyi Clan."
They naturally recognized Wen Xiao, the next successor of Bai Ze Ling, but they were curious about Jiu Ning, who looked like the goddess Bai Ze.
"I don't know what's wrong with this girl."
Looking at Jiu Ning who had been carried on their backs, they had been talking for a while, but the person had not woken up yet.
"Nothing wrong? I just got hurt a little, it will heal soon."
Faced with Zhu Yin's question, Zhuo Yichen couldn't help feeling strange, and subconsciously did not tell the truth.
Having reached this level of cultivation, his perception and predictions of the future have made him alert. He believes that this feeling would not appear without reason.
"Young friend Zhuo Yichen, please come in."
They also often dealt with the Bingyi tribe, but they had never met Zhuo Yichen. After all, he was still young at that time.
After they greeted each other and entered the temple, Zhao Yuanzhou told them the purpose of their trip.
"Grandpa Yingzhao, we have found the Bai Ze Ling, but it is split into two and we don't know how to put it back together.
"You don't know that the original form of the Bai Ze Ling was split into two, controlled by a human and a demon. The two holders of the order must be in sync with each other in order to unleash the power of the Bai Ze Ling."
Zhao Yuanzhou and Wen Xiao looked at each other, and Wen Xiao immediately looked away shyly.
"Now, if we want Bai Ze Ling to rebuild the barrier, we only need to activate the Star Array, but..."
Zhu Yin hesitated for a moment, glanced at Ying Zhao, and continued speaking.
"However, activating the Star Formation requires a large amount of spiritual energy. It is best to wait until noon, when the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is at its peak, to activate it."
A hint of suspicion flashed across the eyes of the people present, but they did not say anything and agreed to Zhu Yin's plan.
Ying Zhao was the only one who didn't think much about it. He smiled and arranged accommodation for them.
While no one was paying attention, Zhao Yuanzhou quickly ran to Zhuo Yichen's room. At this time, Wen Xiao was also there, but he was taking care of Jiu Ning.
Jiu Ning coughed a few times. At this moment, there was no spiritual power fluctuation in her body, and no spiritual power to protect her body.
Unable to bear the cold air on the snowy mountain, he couldn't help but cough softly, which scared Zhuo Yichen.
For those of them who practice Taoism, apart from being injured, there is no such thing as illness, let alone medicines for typhoid fever.
Jiuning had no spiritual power and could not take out the clothes from the space. Zhuo Yichen could only hurriedly call Wen Xiao and put Wen Xiao's clothes on Jiuning.
"Ahem!!! I'm fine. Once the Great Wilderness barrier is repaired tomorrow, the spiritual energy here will be abundant and I'll be able to recover quickly. Don't worry."
The more they tried to stop worrying, the more these people frowned. In the end, three of them took turns inputting spiritual power into Jiuning, which made her feel better.
Fortunately, she is also a fusion of inner elixir and demon elixir, and can accept both spiritual power and demonic power.
After Jiuning recovered, Zhao Yuanzhou told him what he was worried about.
"Tomorrow is the night of the blood moon, which is also the night when I am most likely to lose control. I will draw out the Bai Ze Order as quickly as possible. It's up to you guys from now on."
Jiu Ning coughed twice and looked at Zhao Yuanzhou with disdain.
"Why do I feel like you're leaving some last words? Are you asking us to kill you?"
Zhao Yuanzhou touched his nose embarrassedly. You know what, he really meant it. He didn't want to lose control and hurt or kill anyone, but who would want to die unless it was absolutely necessary!
"The blood moon is a symbol of extreme evil and can arouse all kinds of bloody and murderous energies. If you can't control it, you will suffer backlash."
Although he knew that the other party was afraid that something unexpected would happen tomorrow, Jiu Ning still couldn't help but want to swear.
"I said you are a monkey, not a human, why are you always thinking about useless things? Are my merits so useless? Forget it, you will know tomorrow."
In the end, Jiuning felt unsatisfied and made another sarcastic remark.
"If you lose control tomorrow and hurt Wen Xiao or Zhuo Yichen, I will burn you to ashes. Don't worry, even if I'm weak, I can still control you."
Although it was said rudely, Zhao Yuanzhou was obviously relieved. When he thought that there was nothing left, he gritted his teeth and looked at the hateful woman.
I shouldn't have given her the power just now. Forget it, don't bother with women, or think about how to control it tomorrow! Otherwise, this woman is really capable of doing it.
At noon on the second day, several people came to the square in front of the temple. Zhuo Yichen put Jiu Ning aside and leaned against the stone pillar. He then left the temple and stood guard outside.
Zhu Yin didn't know why they took people wherever they went. He looked dissatisfied, but he couldn't feel any spiritual power and didn't say anything to stop them.
"It's noon. Once the formation is activated, it cannot be interrupted. Are you ready?"
Ying Zhao's eyes were sacred, and he made the final reminder with a serious expression.
Wen Xiao and Zhao Yuanzhou sat cross-legged in the magic circle, watching the stars above their heads gradually brighten. They looked at each other and saw the determination in each other's eyes.
"I'm ready, Grandpa Yingzhao!"
"Zhu Yin and I will jointly activate the magic circle. Then it will depend on the two of you. Whether the barrier of the Great Desolate can be recast depends on this moment."
"Zhu Yin, form the formation, the star formation, start!!!"
Zhu Yin and Ying Zhao twisted their fingers and made magic gestures. The starry sky above their heads lit up little by little, connected by beams of light, forming a huge magic circle.
Zhao Yuanzhou and Wen Xiao placed their palms together, and the mark of Bai Ze Ling kept flashing. In an instant, two golden lights flew out from between their eyebrows and behind their ears, circling under the starry sky and entwining with each other.
The two Bai Ze Orders merged into one at this moment, and the light they emitted echoed with the star map, lighting up more stars.
At this time, the power of the stars also feeds back to the earth, repairing the barrier of the wilderness.
Suddenly, there was a cracking sound next to my ears, and the barrier that had been repaired had another crack, which was getting worse and worse.
Several people opened their eyes at the same time and looked towards the guardian's position, where Zhu Yin's figure could still be seen.
"Are you looking for me?"
Zhu Yin suddenly appeared again, as if showing off, with his arms spread out and stopped in mid-air.
With one person's spiritual power missing, the star map above the magic circle dimmed one by one, leaving only Ying Zhao struggling to hold on.
Jiu Ning couldn't help but smile sarcastically, thinking to himself, Zhao Yuanzhou really guessed it right.
"Hahaha! Stop thinking about the Great Wilderness barrier. One person can't complete the formation."
Wen Xiao sat there without moving, but changed his spells. Zhao Yuanzhou stood up and came to Zhu Yin's side.
Ying Zhao's expression became unnatural for a moment, but was stopped by a look from Zhao Yuanzhou.
"Zhu Yin, why are you doing this?"
Zhu Yin had a smile on his face, but the smile was filled with gloom and even disdain for humans.
"I don't need any benefits. I just want to make the Great Wilderness collapse and make all the demons go to the human world."
"Do you think so too?"
Zhao Yuanzhou's voice sounded slowly, his eyes fixed on the stone pillar in the distance. Just when Zhu Yin felt dissatisfied, a man in black slowly walked out from behind the stone pillar.
The moment the person walked out of the shadows, he changed from Bai Jiu to Li Lun.
Li Lun smiled and looked at Zhao Yuanzhou with great pride, still treating him as if he were an old friend, and there was no sign of any discord between the two.
"Li Lun, you killed someone in the mortal world back then and were sealed away by the White Ze Goddess. Why are you still so stubborn now?"
Li Lun narrowed his eyes slightly, which were filled with arrogance and disdain. When he heard the name of the goddess Bai Ze, the smile on his face instantly turned cold.
"Goddess Bai Ze, she's just a mortal. Why does she have the right to care about the affairs of the Great Wilderness? And why does she have the right to care about me? Today I will destroy the Bai Ze Order."
Zhao Yuanzhou was shocked and felt regret for his old friend. When he wanted to persuade him again, the sky darkened and in an instant, a blood moon appeared in the sky.
"what are you doing?"
Zhao Yuanzhou turned his head to look at Zhu Yin who was casting a spell, but got no response. Instead, Li Lun helped Zhao Yuanzhou solve the problem.
"Zhu Yin can not only summon wind and rain, but also control the alternation of day and night, making night fall earlier. Look, isn't the blood moon in the sky even more beautiful?"
As he spoke, red air filled the sky, a blood moon appeared in the sky, and murderous energy continued to gather towards Zhao Yuanzhou. In a moment, a thick layer of blood surrounded him, wrapping him up like a cocoon.
Gradually, his eyes turned scarlet, revealing a murderous aura.
"Zhao Yuanzhou, wake up."
Ying Zhao, who was far away, was sweating with anxiety as he watched Zhao Yuanzhou being controlled by violence, but he was unable to spare any attention. He called out his name, hoping that he still had a trace of consciousness.
"Don't do anything you'll regret, Zhao Yuanzhou. You must hold on!"
During these eight years, he knew better than anyone how difficult it was for Zhao Yuanzhou. As a vessel of hostility, he was born with original sin. He trapped himself in the small courtyard, suffering torture and repenting.
The whip marks on his back were the best proof, but why were these people unwilling to let him go?
Li Lun laughed as he looked at the out-of-control Zhao Yuanzhou. No one could stop him.
"Now that you are plagued by resentment, as long as you break the Bai Ze Order, you will be free."
"Is it enough to just break the Bai Ze Ling? Is there anything else?"
Jiu Ning coughed twice and walked over from a distance, attracting the attention of the two.
"I just want to break this Bai Ze Order!"
Li Lun turned his gaze towards the voice, and when he saw the person coming, he couldn't help but take a step back.
"That's good!"
At the same time, with a bang, the door was pushed open with force, and Zhuo Yichen walked over calmly and came to Jiu Ning's side.
"Get off Bai Jiu."
Zhuo Yichen was so imposing that he had already firmly suppressed Li Lun.
Li Lun was surprised. He never thought that the person whom he had just stepped on a few days ago was now helpless for him, but he still pretended to be calm and spoke provocatively.
"Isn't this our Lord Xiao Zhuo? How does it feel to now carry the blood of the demon race?"
"I'll say it again, get off Bai Jiu."
Zhuo Yichen didn't want to waste time talking to him, but took a step closer and grabbed the other person's collar.
Li Lun didn't even react before being caught by the other party. He struggled hard, but the other party didn't move at all.
This gap shocked Li Lun and he stood there in a daze.
When he thought that they had successfully destroyed the recast barrier and that Bai Ze Ling would be shattered if Zhao Yuanzhou lost control, he had nothing to fear.
"Do you think you still have the capital to negotiate with me? We already..."
After waiting for a long time, Zhao Yuanzhou didn't make any move, so he turned his head and looked up into the sky.
Zhao Yuanzhou, who was just full of hostility, was still suspended in the air, still full of hostility. The difference was that his eyes were clear, and there was no sign of being out of control.
"You didn't lose control?"
Zhao Yuanzhou shrugged with a smug expression.
"Sorry to disappoint you."
At this moment, all twenty-eight stars in the brilliant star map above have been lit up, and the cracks on the stone pillars of the temple are being repaired bit by bit by the golden light.
The dilapidated scene is slowly recovering, and the ground is covered with a layer of green due to the revival of spiritual power.
The spiritual energy at this moment almost reached its peak, condensing into a milky white mist visible to the naked eye, filling every pore of the body, making people feel so comfortable that they can't help but make a sound.
"Impossible. This is impossible."
"Impossible, how could it be..."
The first "impossible" sound was made by Li Lun, and the second "impossible" sound was made by Zhu Yin. He looked at Ying Zhao with suspicion.
"You can't complete this magic circle by yourself."
At this time, the power of the stars enveloped the entire wilderness, and the barrier was like a giant cover, protecting it firmly.
The pure and holy golden light spreads to every corner of the earth, restoring its vitality.
At the last moment, Bai Zeling gathered all the light, instantly restored his original appearance, and split into two again and entered the bodies of Zhao Yuanzhou and Wen Xiao.
Only then did Zhu Yin notice that Wen Xiao had not spoken a word from beginning to end.
There was still the mark of Bai Zeling on her forehead, and her pupils were also golden. Her eyes, which were comparable to the real eyes, shot straight at Li Lun and Zhu Yin.
"It's you. You did all this."
Zhu Yin roared in disbelief. Their plans were all ruined. He wished he could tear Wen Xiao to pieces.
Wen Xiao raised his arm high and instantly drew out a stream of spiritual power from the star map formation.
"Star Art, seal!"
The spiritual power turned into chains that bound the two people, and no matter how hard they tried, they could not break free.
"I don't accept it. I want to know how you did it?"
Ying Zhao looked at the barrier and saw that it had been restored. He walked towards Wen Xiao with a smile and rarely agreed with Zhu Yin's words.
"My Lady Goddess, I also want to know how you did it."
