Chapter 131
Chapter 131
Ling Yun looked at Ji Chengyue's astonished expression, he didn't want to tell Ji Chengyue so bluntly, he just told his junior to go back obediently.
But since he had talked about this, he no longer concealed it.
Ling Yun asked back: "Junior Brother, how did they treat me a hundred years ago?"
"Ying Long cut Jianmu, Ying Long is hateful, and this group of people is even more hateful!" Ling Yun's tone suddenly became cold.
"What's wrong with me? Just because the dragon is a god, they can cut off my blood regardless. Just because they are afraid of the god, that group of people turned black and white and pushed all the faults on me!"
"But..." Ji Chengyue knew that Ling Yun was right, those people were hateful, and if he had the chance, he would definitely take revenge on them.
But revenge can also be divided into first, second and third grades. Those people are just showing their tongues and telling stories, and there are many people among them who did not follow the crowd to slander Ling Yun.
Sentencing everyone to death blindly is so bad, how better is it than those people?
Before Ji Chengyue could dissuade him, Ling Yun interrupted him coldly: "Junior Brother, do you know where I have been in the past hundred years?"
Ji Chengyue shook his head, he didn't even know that Ling Yun was still alive, so how could he know where Ling Yun had been for the past hundred years.
"Boundless Vision." Ling Yun said the answer.
"Boundless Vision?" Ji Chengyue repeated, thinking in his heart, as if he had read this name in some ancient book.
He vaguely remembered that this seemed to be created by the Dao of Heaven. In order to purify the aura of the heavens, it opened up a world independent of the Three Thousand Worlds and composed of resentment and hatred.
It is said that Ying Long, who is known as the God of War, came from this place.
But where did Ling Yun go?
There is no connection between the Emberless Vision and the Three Thousand Worlds. It is a completely independent, or exiled, abandoned world.
Ling Yun solved Ji Chengyue's doubts: "The Eternal Vision has long been out of control. When it grew to the size of a world, it has faintly escaped the control of the Dao of Heaven."
"In the three thousand worlds, any place where strong resentment gathers may attract the Emberless Vision, and then open a gap leading to the Emberless Vision."
"But there is only a tiny trace. The monsters born in the Emberless Vision cannot come to the world through this at all. However, people from the outside can enter the Emberless Vision through this gap."
"Yinglong strayed into the Emberless Vision through such a gap. A hundred years ago, I also entered the Emberless Vision and escaped in the sky fire." Ling Yundao explained the truth of his narrow escape a hundred years ago.
"It's so!" Ji Chengyue was astonished, but he realized something was wrong immediately, and he looked at his feet in disbelief: "There is a gap leading to the Wujin Vision here?!"
The land under his feet is the place where Jianmu was planted a hundred years ago, and Lingyun was also caught in the sea of fire at that time.
Then the entrance to the Emberless Vision can only be here, but he obviously didn't feel any strong resentment here.
"Because of the soil." Ling Yun pointed out the reason without hesitation: "There is something wrong with the soil I retrieved a hundred years ago. The vitality of the soil is just an illusion. The vitality is formed by absorbing the nutrients from the corpse. What really constitutes its undying power is the hatred hidden in it."
"Jianmu absorbs these resentments, the branches at the top lead to the heavens, but the roots in the soil open the entrance to the Emberless Vision. After the sky fire burns out, the soil loses its endless power. Those resentments hidden in the soil Also purified by the fire."
"That's why Yinglong cut Jianmu?!" Ji Chengyue followed Ling Yun's words, and suddenly understood why Yinglong cut Jianmu. Cut off the entrance to the Eternal Vision.
"Brother...you always knew...?" Ji Chengyue stared blankly at Ling Yun, he was suddenly afraid of hearing the answer from Ling Yun's mouth.
I am afraid that I have never really seen this person clearly from the beginning to the end.
If Ling Yun insisted on planting Jianmu with full knowledge, then this person is really...terrible...
Fortunately, Ling Yun gave a negative answer this time: "I don't know."
Ji Chengyue let out a long sigh of relief.
But before he breathed a sigh of relief, Ling Yun suddenly took out from his cuff something that he found extremely familiar.
It was a small jar, one that he used to bluff other masters, and it was exactly the same as his little apprentice Cao Zirui's, which contained real building wood.
Ji Chengyue was stunned, the jar of the same style could be said to be a coincidence, but the sprouts emerging from the jar made him no longer able to deceive himself.
The Jianmu he gave to Cao Zirui is now in Ling Yun's hands.
"Zi Rui, he..." Ji Chengyue trembled his lips, and some fear suddenly rose in his heart.
His apprentice has always been obedient, before he left, he told Cao Zirui to protect Jianmu, and Cao Zirui would do his best to achieve it.But now that Jianmu has changed hands, does Cao Zirui also...
He just lost his first apprentice not long ago, is he going to lose the only one left now?
He looked at Ling Yun, wanting Ling Yun to tell him an answer he wanted to hear, but he didn't have much confidence.
Now Ling Yun, except for the remaining half of his face, everything else is unfamiliar.
"I didn't kill him." Ling Yun said indifferently, he didn't care about Ji Chengyue's reaction, and just returned to the topic: "A hundred years ago, Yinglong cut off the building tree, and the sky burned everything on the island."
"Before the skyfire burned all the resentment in the soil, I escaped through the gap into the Emberless Vision, and stayed in it for 100 years."
"100 years." Ling Yun repeated it forcefully, grinding each word between his teeth.
100 years, just three words, so easy to say.
But when counted in detail, there are more than 3 days and nights without daylight, and more than 40 hours of unbearable pain.
The happy time is always short, because in the joy, the perception of time will be diluted, but in the purgatory, every minute and every second are as long as a century.
"Do you know what's in the Emberless Vision?" Ling Yun asked in a hurry, almost pressing.
Ji Chengyue was a little dazed when asked.
Before he could answer, Ling Yun gave the answer himself: "Illusions, countless illusions made of resentment and hatred."
The Emberless Vision is made of resentment, and it is a resentment that is too powerful to dissipate over time.This kind of resentment must not be possessed by ordinary people. It must have suffered unimaginable torture for ordinary people to give birth to such a powerful resentment.
It can be said that the darkest, most terrifying, and most sensational situations in the world are gathered in the illusion of the Eternal Vision.
But the illusion does not mean falsehood. In fact, it is precisely because such things have happened in the world that such a powerful resentment was born, and the Emberless Vision was born.
Just like the Western Qiang Imperial City, it is precisely because the Western Qiang Imperial City actually existed in history that the shadow of the Western Qiang Imperial City remains in the Emberless Vision.
"Junior Brother, you can hardly imagine what happened to all the pain and suffering I have experienced in these hundred years!" Ling Yun became more and more excited as he spoke, his face contorted and his voice was almost hoarse.
"Brother..." Ji Chengyue murmured, he didn't know how to react.
He didn't think Ling Yun's face was scary at first, but when this face was distorted by anger and hatred, he felt in a daze that he saw some ghost crawling out of hell.
"Junior Brother." Ling Yun's voice suddenly calmed down again, and his tone became flat again: "In these hundred years, I also want to understand a truth."
"Human nature is despicable. I was too stupid in the past. I cut out my heart to plant trees, and in the end I even selflessly invited monks from all over the world to ascend to the sky. I am extremely stupid!" It seems to be fake.
He denied his past self from the bottom of his heart.
"Then what do you want to do with Jianmu now...?" Ji Chengyue asked in a daze.
Knowing such a complicated truth suddenly, his mind was actually in chaos, but in the chaos, he grasped the only remaining Qingming, and wanted to ask Ling Yun's purpose for appearing here.
He realized that Ling Yun didn't come here specially to find him.When Jianmu was planted a hundred years ago, Lingyun didn't know the truth about Xiran, but Lingyun, who knew everything a hundred years later, still brought Jianmu back here, to the place closest to the rising sun.
Could it be that he wants to replant Jianmu, open the entrance of the Emberless Vision, and let the monsters in the Emberless Vision infect the world and bring disaster to the common people?
Ji Chengyue actually already knew the answer, but he still had some luck.
He looked forward to his senior brother from the bottom of his heart, and still retained the last bit of humanity.
Ling Yun was about to answer, but suddenly, there was a commotion outside the tent.
An outsider came to the island suddenly, and did not hide his arrival in any way, so that the rest of the monks who were sleeping or adjusting their breathing were awakened.
The closer the noise, the closer the footsteps.
The man came straight to the camp.
Ji Chengyue and Ling Yun realized this at the same time.
Others didn't know about Ling Yun's existence, nor did they know that Ling Yun was in the tent, so this person must have come to look for Ji Chengyue.Moreover, everyone in the Lingxiao Sword Sect must know him, so no one stopped him.
A name popped up in Ji Chengyue's mind, and he turned his head to look at the curtain of the tent.
The next moment, the door curtain was pushed open, Cao Zirui was so eager that he could not care about etiquette, and walked in without waiting for Ji Chengyue's consent.
As he walked, he said, "Master, Ling..."
After he said three words, his voice was suddenly cut off, as if someone had strangled his throat and could no longer make a sound.
Because he finally realized that there was another person besides his master in the tent, he looked at the man next to Ji Chengyue in horror.
"...Cloud." He finally pronounced the name completely.
At the same time as the words fell, Ling Yun hooked the corners of his lips, and he stood up from the table, as if greeting Cao Zirui.
But Cao Zirui reflexively took a step back, and when he saw Ling Yun, there was only fear in his eyes.
Seeing this, Ji Chengyue thought for a while, and suddenly took a step forward, blocking Ling Yun and Cao Zirui.
He used his body to block Cao Zirui's view of Ling Yun and Ling Yun's view of Cao Zirui.
He asked Cao Zirui: "What happened? So what are you doing in a hurry?"
When Cao Zirui saw Master's familiar face, he finally woke up like a dream. He grabbed Ji Chengyue's arm and said eagerly: "Master, be careful! He is instigating..."
Instigate what?
Before Cao Zirui could speak clearly, a voice from inside the tent interrupted him.
This is a deep male voice different from the three people in the tent, the voice is a little urgent and impatient: "Ling Yun, you have been dawdling for too long."
Ji Chengyue turned his head when he heard the sound, his pupils widened.
He saw a black snake clinging to Ling Yun's neck, which was exactly the same as the giant snake that was possessed by Xue Ren, except that it was several times smaller in size.
But the black mist that made up the snake's body leaked a little from Ling Yun's collar and sleeves. Just looking at it from a certain distance made people feel gloomy and terrifying, but it made it clear that the black snake was the monster that used Xue Ren.
In the blink of an eye, Ji Chengyue figured everything out.
Xue Ren's rebellion was instigated by Black Snake, and Ling Yun knew about it, and even he was an accomplice.
His brother... actually helped such a monster to assassinate his teacher?
For the sake of Jianmu, he could ignore the safety of Shimen and turn his nephew into a pawn to ask him where Jianmu was.
The truth was so clear, but Ji Chengyue couldn't believe it.
And Ling Yun glanced sideways at the black snake on the side of his neck, then turned his gaze back to Ji Chengyue, and finally said to Ji Chengyue: "It's almost dawn, junior brother, you can go now."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Ji Chengyue to answer, he turned and left the tent.
