Chapter 571: Reverse Rise

The darkness faded, and the sky was slightly bright.

The fog still enveloped the earth, carrying a strong fairy spirit.

Whether it was the mountains, rivers, or the forests and plains, they were all filled with the tension of life.

The floating flying boat sailed above the clouds, and the surface was occasionally lit up with brilliant light, just like a fish swimming happily in the sea.

There were also flocks of spiritual birds flying by, casting curious glances at the flying boat from time to time.

Below was an endless vast plain.

Cities of all sizes were scattered all over the place.

Avenues led in all directions.

A scene of prosperity and prosperity.

The spiritual boat passed through a cloud layer, sailed forward for a distance, and suddenly began to lower its altitude.

And it no longer flew in a straight line like before, but drew a curved arc, far away from the lone peak standing in the middle of the plain in front.

The mountain was like a sword, straight into the sky.

From a distance, it did not look like a naturally formed landform, but more like a scabbard inserted into the earth by the gods.

On the top of the mountain sits a group of magnificent palaces, and the brilliant lights converge to form a gorgeous light band like a dragon, dancing around the top of the mountain. It looks like a miracle descending on the world.

As the distance gets closer, everyone on the spirit boat straightens their clothes, kneels down in front of the peak, and respectfully salutes with their hands on their foreheads.

On the top of Jianshan Mountain, near the cliff, on the terrace of the hall, stands a tall old man.

He is wearing a white robe, and there are three pairs of white wings around his back. Under the rising sun, it reflects a gorgeous and sacred luster. It looks like an angel living in the sky, coming to the world in this quiet and peaceful morning.

Around the old man, a number of spiritual talismans flicker and appear, winding around his body.

The mountain is quiet, and the talismans move.

Observe carefully, it is like the stars flickering and changing, and the movement and stillness seem to contain the truth, and it is in line with the true meaning of the rules of the operation of the realm.

The old man spread his wings behind him, and slowly lowered his head to look down. His eyes penetrated the clouds and mist, and took in the vast plain.

After a moment, he extended his eyes outward again, and fell on the end of the distant sky. At this time, the whole person was also lost in thought.

The spirit boat flew under the mountainside until it was dozens of miles away. Everyone bowed to the holy mountain again before standing up.

There were also more devout believers who still kept their kneeling posture, and they were already in tears without knowing it.

This is the Central Holy Mountain, the guardian temple, like a sea-stabilizing needle, blessing the safety of the entire world.

Not only did it repel the enemies from the outside world a long time ago, but it also took the opportunity to shine the light of the holy mountain, making more than one world realm become a vassal land, bringing unparalleled resources and wealth to the Lingxuan Realm.

The old man standing on the terrace overlooking all living beings is the guardian of the Holy Mountain Temple and the strongest in the entire realm.

Whether ordinary mortals or extraordinary monks, they all respect him as if he were a god, and dare not blaspheme him in the slightest.

The old man retracted his gaze and turned to look at the main entrance of the hall.

A silver light flashed there, followed by the click of the hall door being opened.

A young man wearing silver armor and with two pairs of wings growing on his back walked slowly, knelt on one knee ten steps away from the terrace, and saluted respectfully.

"Master Guardian, the analysis of the breath coming from the Taixu Spirit Realm and the Endless Blood Sea by the Observatory has been concluded, and the approximate location where the two appeared and disappeared has been calculated.

In addition, there is a more urgent situation to report. A marginal domain under our control suddenly lost all contact half an hour ago."

"I have asked the liaison officer to confirm again to see if there is a problem with the information transmission, or if there is an accident in that marginal domain and it is out of our control."

At this point, the young man raised his head, revealing a beautiful face full of heroic spirit.

Waiting for the old man's instructions.

Time passed little by little.

The guardian did not speak.

He even retracted his gaze and cast his eyes to the far end of the sky.

It seemed that there was some fatal attraction hidden there, and even the major event of a vassal realm losing contact could not attract his attention at all.

"Master Guardian..."

"Should I ask the temple to prepare supplies in advance, so that we can go on a rebellion expedition at any time after the news is confirmed."

The young man waited for a long time and finally couldn't help asking.

But even so, her voice was very soft, for fear of disturbing the old man's thinking.

"I already know about this."

The old man sighed leisurely, and when he spoke again, he said something completely unrelated.

"Come, come and enjoy this beautiful morning view with me."

The rising sun shines on the earth, and the plains below are lush and green, forming a quiet and peaceful magnificent picture.

It's just that there seems to be a hint of darkness at the end of the sky. Although it looks inconspicuous, it also adds a bit of disharmony to this tranquility.

The silver-armored girl's eyes flashed with some doubts, and she looked into the distance along the old man's finger.

She observed carefully and felt deeply, but she didn't find anything special.

Except for the faint darkness, it was no different from the scenery she had seen from the top of the mountain countless times before.

Even the dark color, in her opinion, was just a rain cloud formed by weather changes, not worth making a fuss about.

However, since it was the Lord Guardian who wanted to see it, she could only restrain her thoughts, hold her breath and observe further. Maybe she could really find some insights from it, which would be of great benefit to her future practice.

Suddenly, the sound of rapid footsteps came from far and near.

Soon they came to the temple where the two of them were.

Immediately afterwards, a rich middle-aged man's voice sounded, which sounded vaguely worried and anxious.

"Lord Guardian, Your Highness the Holy Son, just now two more vassal realms have lost contact. No matter how hard we try, we can't..."

The old man did not look back, but waved his hand slightly, "I understand, you can go down first."

The middle-aged man followed the order and left, and silence returned again inside and outside the temple.

"Lord Guardian, regarding the loss of contact in the vassal realm..."

After hesitating for a moment, the girl in silver armor finally couldn't help but speak again, but just after she said a few words, she was interrupted again by the old man.

"Don't think about other irrelevant things. The most important thing is to appreciate the beautiful scenery in front of you."

The old man shook his head and sighed secretly again, "Maybe it won't be long before there is no chance to see it again."

The loss of contact in at least three affiliated realms of heaven and earth has become an insignificant matter?

You must know that in the past, the Lord Guardian had already ordered the expeditionary legion to dispatch, and he must kill all those who dared to disobey and rebel.

It is absolutely impossible to behave like this now.

More importantly, what does his last sentence mean?

What does it mean that in a short time, you will never have the chance to see the beautiful scenery in front of you?

Could it be that the guardian, whose cultivation realm is far beyond the limit and has a long life, is already approaching the end of his life! ?

How is this possible? It's simply impossible!

She couldn't imagine that if the guardian was gone, it would be equivalent to the collapse of the pillars supporting the Xuanling Realm's high status, and what unpredictable changes would happen.

"what do you mean……"

The silver-armored girl's heart suddenly tightened, and her voice trembled uncontrollably.

"Everything that once prospered will eventually perish. You have not yet reached the same height as me, so you cannot see the coming destruction and death through the quiet and peaceful appearance in front of you."

The old man finally withdrew his gaze and slowly closed his eyes, "You are the disciple of the Holy Mountain that I value most. Your talents and qualifications are among the best among the younger generation. If you can give time and have deep blessings, your achievements may still be better." Will be above me.

If that time comes, under your leadership, the entire Xuanling Realm may be able to go further than it is now and reach unprecedented heights and glory. This is also my biggest wish and expectation in recent years.

However, it is no longer possible, everything has become delusion and fantasy, and what is left is probably only the emptiness after the destruction. "

The expression of the girl in silver armor suddenly changed, and her eyes showed not only disbelief but also indescribable surprise and confusion.

In her excitement, she even ignored her superiors and inferiors and stood up from the floor of the hall. She was willing to investigate to the end even if she was punished. She wanted to find out what happened, which made the guardian who was like a god so pessimistic.

But the next moment, before she could speak, she froze there without any warning, looking towards the end of the sky with dull eyes.

The darkness that was originally undetectable and almost non-existent actually occupied almost the entire horizon in an instant.

And the madness is still spreading in all directions at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just a few breaths, half of the sky has been completely covered.

It's like the entire sky is divided into two, half of it is as dark as ink, and the other half is still shining with bright sunshine.

The holy mountain standing in the center of the plain is exactly at the dividing line between light and darkness.

To be more precise, starting from where she was standing, one step to the left revealed darkness and darkness, while one step to the right revealed bright sunshine. It was such an incredibly weird sight.

got windy.

At the beginning, there was still a breeze, disturbing the clouds and mist.

In an instant, the wind was howling and howling shrilly.

Attacking from the increasingly gloomy end of the sky, it swept through the world like a steel knife scraping bones. Everywhere it passed, whether it was a dense forest or a giant city, was torn apart and destroyed in an instant, turning into fragments flying all over the sky.

boom! ! !

Rays of rays of light rose from inside the holy mountain, resisting the howling wind.

But just a moment later, the bright light dimmed.

After only holding on for a very short time, it was on the verge of collapse.

"This, what exactly is this..."

"What on earth is going on with this great terror that destroys the world!?"

The silver-armored girl's throat surged, and she was covered in cold sweat.

It was like being banned from cultivating, taking off the holy armor, and throwing the person into the eye of the extreme northern sea. From the tips of his hair to his heels, he was filled with despairing coldness.

"Although it seems to be a foregone conclusion, as I protect Lingxuan, I cannot just sit back and watch them die."

The old man took a deep breath, and a few wrinkles quietly appeared on his eyebrows, as if he had aged decades in an instant.

He slowly raised his hand, and a simple and worn-out scepter appeared in his palm. The surface was already covered with fine cracks, as if it would turn into fragments scattered all over the floor if touched.

As soon as the ancient scepter appeared, a desolate atmosphere that seemed to come from ancient times filled the entire holy mountain.

Gudong!

Gudonggudong!

The sound sounded like a gulp of water.

Even though the sharp wind howled, it was clearly heard in the ears of the girl in silver armor.

The scepter was devouring the essence of life and suddenly erupted into a golden light that shot straight into the sky.

The girl in silver armor suddenly came back to her senses. Seeing that the old man's body was visibly shriveled up to the naked eye, the surprise and fear in her heart reached its peak in an instant.

"You go."

"I can open a separate transmission channel for you and send you out from here before the destruction comes. As long as you can survive, you can continue the inheritance of the Holy Mountain. It can also be regarded as leaving a thought, waiting for the resurrection of the The day has come."

The old man's voice sounded weak and tired, but more of it was calm and composed after the cold determination.

Uh-huh! ! !

As if lifting a huge weight, he slowly waved his staff, completely forcing away the violent turbulence around the holy mountain, and opened a slowly opening crack at the top of the mountain.

There is nothingness in the crack, and I don’t know where it is connected to the dark void.

"Walk!"

The old man shouted low, held the silver-armored girl's arm, and was about to throw her towards the crack.

But at this moment, there was a crisp sound, like thunder exploding in the void channel in the crack.

In his suddenly gloomy gaze, the crack exploded without any warning, and it didn't even take more than a snap of a finger from its appearance to its destruction.

"You can't leave. This is your fate, and perhaps the final destination of our Holy Mountain lineage."

The old man sighed, his pupils suddenly shrank inward, and he stared at the depths of the crack. His eyes reflected a fleeting and ferocious body, wrapped in a time and space storm that destroyed everything, and had already destroyed the entire world. The front, back, left and right are all covered.

There was a sudden flash in front of the eyes, and the terrifying monster beyond imagination disappeared without a trace, and inexplicably transformed into a figure of a young man in white clothes, looking down from the depths of the broken and disappeared crack.

He felt like a person looking through the crack of the glass bottle to observe everything inside.

"This level of power, the space-time storm sweeping through the dark void, was actually formed because of one person, instead of a natural disaster of destruction!?"

"I was hailed by my teacher as the number one in talent, ambition and understanding in the Xuanling world. I have been practicing hard since I was a child. Not only did I reach the top step by step, I even broke through the barriers with the blessing of resources from many affiliated realms. He has reached a state of enlightenment that has never been seen before, and perhaps will never come after.

I thought that even if I returned to the ancient true world, I could still have a foothold among the many great practitioners, but I never expected that after the true world was shattered, such a terrifying powerful monk could survive and threaten Wrapped in the power of destruction and calamity, it appeared in front of me. "

The old man held the scepter in his hand tightly, and his whole body was almost completely sucked dry.

In exchange, the entire holy mountain rose from the ground.

Like a real holy sword holding the sky, its whole body shines with an extremely cold light.

The man, the scepter, and the holy mountain merged into one at this moment, erupting with the power of the earth shattering, and piercing towards the sky.

Through the broken cracks, the last scene the old man saw was that the young man was slowly opening his mouth, as if he was about to bite forward.

Snapped!

The boundary barrier is like a soap bubble, instantly shattered and gone.

The Holy Mountain Divine Sword cut off countless oncoming terrifying tentacles and continued to slash upward.

And as it rises, the will of heaven and earth is converging towards the sword tip at the peak, vowing to explode with the strongest blow that gathers the origin power of the realm.

boom! ! !

The guardian's eyes suddenly went dark, and all his vision was occupied by the sudden appearance of a giant black hole.

He also saw white peaks that were countless times larger than the Holy Mountain. They were densely stacked and covered all the edges of the giant black hole.

"That young man just opened his mouth."

"So, the black hole is his mouth, and those mountains are his sharp fangs."

When the old man thought of this, he suddenly laughed.

He really wanted to know whether the strongest blow he could unleash by sacrificing his body, using the holy mountain as a tool, and gathering the will of heaven and earth together, could break a tooth of the opponent.

Click! ! !

The black holes closed and the spikes fell.

The turbulent storm of time and space swept past.

All that was left behind was a pile of messy debris.

It is completely unbelievable that not long ago, there was a realm full of life here.

"Eating all the time along the way, this is the most nutritious. It can at least allow me to push the Chaos Dharma Body to another level."

"kindness?"

"Is it so hard? It seems like one of my teeth was knocked out."

Within the time and space storm, Wei Tao slowly moved his body, with half a broken tooth appearing in his hand.

He thought for a moment, put the tooth directly into his mouth and swallowed it, then tried to keep his eyes open, looking for the next place to pass.

As if at the end of a dark void.

A pair of eyes lit up silently.

Then a figure stood up slowly, stretched out his hand and pushed gently towards the empty space in front of him.

But there was a soft squeaking sound, quietly swinging through the darkness.

The man took one step forward, and a small courtyard appeared in front of him.

The courtyard is full of green grass and flowers, standing alone in the darkness and nothingness.

He kept moving forward and came to the door of the somewhat old wooden house.

There was another soft squeak.

There seems to be a disturbance in the airflow, bringing a faint musty smell out of the house.

He stood in front of the door and waited for a moment before he stepped into the house. He first lit a half-burnt candle and then began to clean the room.

Time passed by little by little.

The house finally became clean and tidy again.

But it still looked dilapidated and decayed.

He poured a cup of hot tea and slowly drank it, carefully savoring the lingering fragrance after the bitterness.

"Being sealed and imprisoned by the time and space storm and the power of annihilation, the guy's life breath actually rose instead of falling. He really woke up from his dying dream, which was completely beyond my inference and expectation."

He slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, and a strong puzzled expression appeared between his eyebrows. "Such a monster must be killed at all costs, otherwise I will be in great trouble and lose my life at the most critical moment."
