Chapter 1775
“Dad ……”
Chen Dong hissed and cried, rushing towards Chen Daolin with all his might.
In the line of sight.
His father’s body was turning into a blood mist from the bottom up, rapidly.
It was as if the snow had melted, floating in the air with the wind.
And his father, was looking at him, smiling gently.
It was a smile he had never seen before.
Chen Dong’s mind was blank, his eyes were teary and his nose was sore.
He couldn’t think of anything else, he just wanted to rush to his father’s side.
Finally.
As the blood mist of Chen Daolin’s flesh dissipated to his neck, he arrived.
Boom!
Chen Dong stumbled to his knees and, with trembling hands, cupped his hands towards his father’s face.
“Dad.”
“Don’t go!”
“Dad ……”
He cried and begged.
He was crying like a child at this moment.
Suddenly his hands lurched in the air and he jerked back as if electrocuted, hissing and pleading, “Save him, save him!”
A heartbreaking cry.
In the distance, Chen Daojun and Jiang Qilin arrived belatedly.
“He has come back to life!”
Chen Daojun said in a heavy voice, “If there was a way, I would have struck long ago!”
The heavy voice was like a bolt from the blue.
Chen Dong froze for a moment and turned back, his hands frozen in mid-air, trembling as he cupped Chen Daoling’s face.
Chen Daolin’s face was covered in blood, and his eyes were already lifeless, but the corners of his mouth still held the bright smile from earlier.
Only this splendour was quickly erased with the erosion of Qi.
Not waiting for Chen Dong’s hands to touch Chen Daoling’s face.
Boom!
There was a soft sound.
Chen Daolin’s face turned into a thick blood mist in the air, scattering with the wind.
Chen Dong froze, his hands grasping at nothing, frozen in the air.
Dots of blood sprayed into his hands and onto his face, moist and bloody.
He knelt on the ground like a statue, dumbfounded, tears rolling out of his eyes, his lips mumbling to say something, but no sound could come out.
On the other side.
Jiang Qilin and Chen Daojun were walking side by side.
Looking at the old lady Gu standing in the big tripod above her head, Jiang Qilin scornfully said, “Senior, this Gu family and the big tripod ……”
“Not enough to fear, she’s dead too.”
Chen Daojun couldn’t hide the grief deep in his eyes, yet he still tried to make his voice seem calm: “Is it really so worth it to die together?”
The words had just fallen.
Dang!
A muffled sound suddenly emitted from the large tripod looming in the air.
In an instant.
The dull golden light was bright and dazzling.
The moment it separated from Old Madam Gu’s body, Old Madam Gu’s body also let out a “ka” sound and went limp like a dough ball towards the ground, quickly turning into blood.
What was that?
Jiang Qilin froze for a moment.
“No!”
Chen Daojun’s face changed dramatically and his qi blasted up into the sky, increasing in speed like a bolt of lightning, dragging his qi and rushing directly towards the dazzling cauldron that rose into the air.
“Jiang Qilin, someone’s robbing the cauldron, use the Qilin Void Step!”
The shouting voice made Jiang Qilin startled.
But he didn’t dare to be slow, he knew about the Great Cauldron, but to make Chen Daojun shout out in his desperation and ask him to help, he didn’t need to think about this situation.
“Qilin Void Step!”
Jiang Qilin’s body shifted and disappeared like a bubble in place.
Almost simultaneously.
A faint golden curtain of light splashed down from the vacant Great Cauldron.
Jiang Qilin’s figure appeared beside Chen Daojun who was running wildly towards the Great Cauldron.
“I told you to grab the tripod, what are you doing by my side?”
Chen Daojun’s eyes instantly jumped wildly at the corners, and as soon as the words left his mouth, he suddenly thought of something.
Sure enough.
Jiang Qilin had a helpless face, “Senior, a force has formed a barrier, blocking the distance of my Qilin Void Step!”
D*mn it!
Chen Daojun fiercely gritted his teeth and rushed towards the great cauldron in the air with all his might.
With his next step, qi swept beneath his feet.
He stepped straight up into the air, and with every step he took, Qi energy swirled beneath his feet as he leapt upwards once more.
Seeing that he was about to approach the Great Cauldron.
Gu Cang Yue’s cold laughter suddenly came from all directions.
“A Daoist Monarch with the face to rob my ancient family’s heirlooms?”
Teasing mockery.
Chen Daojun’s brows twisted and did not respond, his feet stepped out one after another, stepping up into the air, and his hands were about to execute a grab towards the Great Cauldron.
Suddenly.
“Shame on you, this is my ancient family heirloom!”
Gu Cang Yue’s scolding voice came from all directions again, but the last word “heirloom” was extremely strong, as if it meant something.
The words had barely left his lips.
Boom!
The big tripod, which was flying away in the air, suddenly made a loud sound.
A ripple of golden light, visible to the naked eye, washed out and swept across all directions.
“Not good! Jiang Qilin, dodge!”
Chen Daojun’s face changed drastically as he fiercely leaned down and rushed towards the ground.
Jiang Qilin’s scalp also numbed, and he hurriedly cast the “Qilin Void Step” to escape.
The ripples of golden light seemed soft and slow, but in fact they were as fast as lightning.
Almost immediately after Chen Daojun, it struck the ground.
Bang!
Chen Daogun’s Qi was so majestic that the moment he landed on the ground, he shot towards Chen Dong’s position like a thunderbolt.
“Sword coming!”
His expression was grave as he made an empty move with his right hand.
The blade stuck in the distance flew directly into his hand with a clanging sword cry.
Behind him, the golden light of Qi luck was already within easy reach.
The terrifying destructive power made Chen Daogun’s face as heavy as charcoal and his back tingled.
It was a close call.
Chen Daolin turned around bravely, holding the hilt of his sword with one hand and pushing it with the other, his body bowed, and while his feet crushed the ground and retreated quickly, he fiercely pushed Fengless towards the golden light of Qi Luck.
Clang!
The sound of metal clashing.
The golden light of Qi Luck impacted on top of the Bladeless, changing direction in the air and washing away.
And Chen Daogun’s retreating footsteps abruptly stopped beside Chen Dong.
Having successfully changed the direction of the golden light, Chen Daogun slowly put down the bladeless blade in his hand and let out a sigh of relief.
Only his complexion was still gloomy.
He raised his eyes to the air, and the great censer emitting golden light was already hanging high in the sky, heading into the distance.
If he wanted to chase it again, he would not be able to do so.
Following closely.
Gu Cangyue’s voice came from all directions.
“Today’s revenge, the sea of blood will be repaid for generations, Daoist Monarch Chen, if you want the Great Cauldron, then come and grab it outside the domain! Hahahahahaha ……”
The laughter was rampant and echoed through the heavens and the earth.
Chen Daogun’s brow was furrowed and his eyes flickered with fierceness.
But Gu Cang Yue had his heart in the right place, and the sounds came from all directions, making it difficult even for him to identify his hiding place for a while.
It was at this moment.
Out of the corner of his eye, Chen Daogun caught a glimpse of something shaking beside him.
When he fixed his eyes, he saw Chen Dong, who was kneeling on the ground like a statue, holding up his right hand and pointing in a direction.
Hmm?
Chen Daojun froze for a moment, and then he was suddenly delighted, this was one of the functions of the Hidden Demon Realm?
Even he only had a “theoretical” perception of the legendary “Hidden Demon Realm”.
But Chen Daojun did not doubt the power of the Hidden Demon Realm in the slightest.
Nor did he have time to ask more questions.
Boom!
Qi broke out from Chen Daogun’s body like a shocking wave, transforming into a dragon scroll that went straight up into the sky.
He raised Fengless straight up, Qi sweeping out and sword chants stirring.
“Zhong!”
Chen Daogun let out a shout.
His body lurched forward and he brazenly threw Fengless in the direction Chen Dong pointed.
Boom!
Dragging a dozen metres of sword qi, Fengless destroyed the air with a sound explosion and disappeared into the night sky in the blink of an eye, leaving behind only a long train across the long sky.
The next second.
In the distance, the night suddenly lit up with a golden light.
“Ah!”
Gu Cang Yue’s miserable scream rang out with it.
It was really …… over there!
A rare look of surprise appeared on Chen Daojun’s face.
Chapter 1776
The golden light in the distance flickered for a moment and then disappeared.
Jiang Qilin looked at the light with a palpitating heart, and then once again used the “Qilin Void Step” to return to Chen Dong and Chen Daojun.
“Should we chase?”
Chen Daogun shook his head and smiled bitterly, “I can’t chase him, he has the Great Cauldron in his hand, so the end result of such a fight to the death will probably be to die together.”
The tone of his voice was somewhat disappointed and lost.
Jiang Qilin subconsciously swept the flat ground around him, and as far as he could see, the ground was empty, with a thick layer of broken powder.
He could not help but draw a secret breath of cold air.
As a member of the Jiang family, he was naturally aware of where the Gu family’s mountain gate was located, but overnight, the gateway Gu family had actually become flat land.
Thinking back to that golden light of Qi luck just now, he couldn’t help but feel a chill run through his body.
“Back then, in the battle to suppress the Gu Family, Dao Lin’s main attack was to force the Gu Family to sacrifice the Great Cauldron, and I seized it from the side, but the old lady of the Gu Family would rather let Gu Cang Yue sacrifice it even though she had to lose her foundation.”
Chen Daojun had his hands behind his back and his brows were downcast, showing his despondency, “If I had taken my time this time and forced them to sacrifice the Great Cauldron, I might have had a good chance of succeeding in capturing it, but there was no chance to do so.
The words had not yet ended.
Chen Dong, who was kneeling on the ground, his body suddenly twitched.
His right hand, which had been frozen in mid-air, clenched into a fist with a click, and the veins on the back of his hand stood out.
A cold laugh rang out.
Chen Daogun and Jiang Qilin looked towards Chen Dong at the same time.
The moment they turned their heads, the wind suddenly rose.
Chen Daogun instinctively clenched his fists and his robe flew.
But it was also in this instant that he closed his eyes and loosened his fists, and his tumbling robes fell with him.
Bang!
Chen Dong threw a heavy punch that landed solidly on Chen Daogun’s face.
Chen Daogun, without any resistance, just like a broken pocket, flew straight across the room four or five metres away before sweeping his Qi and landing firmly on the ground.
He had his hands behind his back and the corners of his mouth were still stained with a trace of blood.
Guilt and self-reproach flashed in his eyes.
Whirling around, he slowly turned around and gazed at Chen Dong.
“If it makes you feel better to beat me up, then you go on.”
Jiang Qilin’s expression changed and he was about to speak, but when he saw Chen Dong beside him, he forced himself to hold back again.
Chen Dong stood in place with his body bowed, his right hand still in the act of throwing a punch, and a sharp breathing sound coming out of his mouth and nose.
At this moment, he no longer had the same heart and soul as before.
His whole body gave off a sense of defeat and despair.
His eyes were scarlet and filled with tears as he stared angrily at Chen Daojun, his hatred hidden deep in his eyes.
Silence.
There was a dead silence.
Chen Dong and Chen Daojun stood opposite each other, motionless.
The air was filled with the invisible shadow of swords and knives.
Jiang Qilin stood by, his body like a man’s back, but he did not know how to break the deadlock.
For a long time.
“How nice.”
Chen Dong spoke softly, breathlessly.
There was no hysterical roar, no heart-breaking cry, just a sigh of emotion, but it was like a million knives on his body.
Immediately, turned around and walked towards the distance.
“Brother Dong ……”
Jiang Qilin wanted to chase after him.
But as soon as he turned around, he felt an aura of decadence and dilapidation come over him, and he couldn’t help but feel his heart twitch hard, and his footsteps stopped abruptly.
The light of the stars and moon came down again.
The wind and snow were drifting.
Chen Dong slowly walked towards the distance, his dark shadow stretched long and long on the ground, while his back was getting hunched.
It was as if one step was late, and then another step …… was old and decrepit.
“Has the state of mind …… collapsed?”
Jiang Qilin’s heart stung fiercely, and a possibility fiercely surfaced in his mind.
The thought had just started, and it grew like a wild weed.
His face turned white with fear and apprehension as he looked towards Chen Daojun.
“Seniors …… Dong’s mind ……”
“It’s collapsed!”
Chen Daojun’s brow was filled with guilt and depression.
“Is it worth it?”
Jiang Qilin’s body shook with resentment.
For a martial artist, talent was the key to determining a martial artist’s strength advancement and ceiling, while Dao heart was likewise the key factor in determining the ceiling, and not only that, but also shouldering the key factor of how firm a martial artist could walk on the martial path.
If the dao heart is solid, even if there are mountains of fire and thorns in front of you, you will still be able to grit your teeth and walk through them.
But once the dao heart collapses, all thoughts are lost and the three views are shattered!
This is even more desperate than planting a demon in one’s heart!
At least the demon will still have a heart, but when the heart collapses, it will be a real walking corpse!
Chen Daojun fell into silence, the corners of his mouth obliterated.
For a long time.
Only then did he let out a long, sighing sigh, “Everyone has their own path to follow, perhaps …… this is the step Dong’er needs to take.”
This is more like a self-congratulatory statement.
The first thing you need to do is to take a look at the website.
He flicked his right hand and the bladeless heavy sword flew into his hand.
Under the cover of the night, blackness covered everything, but the Bladeless still emitted a seeping cold light in Chen Daogun’s hand.
“This sword ……”
Jiang Qilin’s gaze flinched.
“This is one of Fengless’ original bodies.”
Chen Daogun explained, “Dao Lin used Fengless as a shield to harden against the Great Cauldron’s Qi, and the golden light of Qi only shattered a layer of wrapping on Fengless’ exterior.”
“One of the instants? The Qi Luck blasted and shattered just a layer of wrapping?”
Jiang Qilin’s face changed greatly and he was dumbfounded.
He had witnessed with his own eyes how terrifying the golden light of Qi Luck released by the Great Cauldron was, and at this moment, Chen Daogun’s words made his mind go blank.
This was like beating a person for half a day, but only tearing his coat, it was the same concept, but this “you” …… was the Qi of the entire domain!
How is this possible?
“Let’s go!”
Chen Daojun dragged Fengless towards the distance: “This battle is a big loss!”
Jiang Qilin froze in place, his hands snapping into fists, looking at Chen Daogun with eyes filled with resentment and discontent.
It’s come to this situation, and you’re still rationally weighing the pros and cons, analyzing the gains and losses?
Can people …… really be hard-hearted to this extent?
The wind cries and learns to howl, and the night is silent.
Chen Dong seems like a walking corpse, stumbling and walking aimlessly.
He did not know where he was going.
He just kept on walking forward.
The memories in his mind kept coming back, stirring his every nerve like a big hand.
His mother, father, Gu Qingying and mother-in-law had all left him.
This does not even include his and Gu Qingying’s first born child, Qin Ye, Zhang Yulan, Zheng Junlin and so on ……
This journey, even he himself does not know how to get through it.
There was always a string taut in his head, prompting him to clench his teeth and step on the thorns a little bit towards the front.
But when he watched his father crumble into a mist of blood in front of him, without even a final touch, the string snapped in his head.
His eyes were red and he was in tears, but they never left.
There is no greater sorrow than the death of the heart, and the ultimate sorrow is silence.
An unprecedented feeling of fatigue swept over his body.
He walked, but his steps became slower and slower ……
in the midst of this night.
Chen Dong used his last ounce of strength and muttered, “I’m so tired, I can’t hold on anymore ……”
Boom!
Chen Dong’s body swayed and collapsed to the ground.
