C3174 Tragic Situation
Nine Cloud Sect.
After the rain of blood, the five thousand disciples of the Nine Cloud Sect came out to save people, but they only saved three thousand miles of the Nine Cloud Sect. There were only two hundred thousand of them.
The rain of blood had drowned all the towns and villages of the Silvermoon Mountains. More than three million people had died.
Since the snow season, a new crisis had come. The snow had covered the sky, and the mortals couldn't get enough to eat. Even if the Nine Cloud Sect took out all the food they had, it would still be a drop in the bucket. Two hundred thousand people needed a huge amount of food every day. Besides, because of the cold, the food they needed was horrible.
Within the Nine Cloud Sect, the Great Elder Hai Zhiwen, the Sixth Elder Hua Yishan, the Seventh Elder Feng Buping, and the Ninth Elder Feng Buping were all frowning. Ever since Gu Huang left half a year ago, there had been no news of him.
The Grand Elder was nowhere to be found, and now even the Eldest Miss was gone. In this half a year, a lot of problems in the Nine Cloud Sect had fallen on their heads.
Although there was no big problem, there was a bigger problem. Many of the mortals down the mountain were relatives of the disciples of the Nine Cloud Sect. The snow, the cold, the food, the materials, they couldn't last for more than half a month.
"Eldest Brother, what should we do now? We have been living frugally, but it is not enough to support the lives of two hundred thousand people! The young mistress is not here, the Sect Master is not here, and the Great Elder is nowhere to be found. It is time for you to make a decision. "
Seventh Elder scratched his head from time to time. Now that the matter was so urgent, he could only rely on Hai Zhiwen.
"Eldest Brother, make the decision! If the Sect Master blames us in the future, we are willing to bear the responsibility." Ninth Elder Feng Buping sighed. They really couldn't control the lives of two hundred thousand mortals, so they had no choice but to abandon them. Besides, the coming of the Eternal Night was the coldest month in the world.
"Alas! Brothers, we can't retreat! No matter what happens, we can't retreat! When the Polar Night arrived, the darkness would definitely invade! If we retreat, what will happen to the two hundred thousand mortals? Although the Sovereign has temporarily left, the Eldest Miss has not returned, and the Grand Elder is gone, I have a feeling that they are all doing their best to fight against the darkness."
"We can't help them, but we can at least protect these two hundred thousand people. Even if you and I both die in battle, at least we will have a clear conscience, a clear conscience, and a clear conscience."
Hai Zhiwen clenched his fists and his eyes were filled with determination. He had never been so determined before. The more determined he was, the more he couldn't retreat.
"Eldest Brother, it's time for us old things to take the lead and go into battle. The Grand Elder taught us the method not to let us live an ignoble life, but to protect a peaceful place and live a peaceful life. This is the mission of us martial cultivators."
Hua Yishan was like an unsheathed sharp blade, erupting with an unparalleled aura.
"Sixth Senior Brother is right. It's time for us to fulfill our mission."
"Guarding justice and warding off evil is our destiny!"
"Fight to the last breath, bleed to the last drop of blood!"
"Fight to the last breath, bleed to the last drop of blood!"
The battle intent of the Elders was extremely strong. At this moment, they truly had their own mission and comprehension.
"Looks like I won't be able to escape death! What a pity..." Gu Huang, who was in the air, looked at the disciples below and sighed slightly. Since they chose not to retreat, it was their fate. This was a disaster that swept through all the living beings in the Azure Province. No one could stay out of it.
"Man chooses his destiny, one step at a time. Some accept it, some fall, but only you dare challenge it."
The old man's voice was mixed with a deep sense of helplessness. Even if he knew everything about the world and everything, over the ages, only Gu Huang had chosen to fight and not fall.
At this time, Gu Huang suddenly noticed a gaze coming from afar, and when Gu Huang looked over, he saw that it was Shangguan Wenjun. He was extremely shocked in his heart. This little guy could actually sense him and ignore the obstruction of the Power of Space.
Gu Huang silently descended beside him. He was sitting alone on the Dao Comprehension Cliff, holding an ancient bronze box in his hand.
"Sect Master, are you back? Although you didn't show yourself, I could sense that master asked me to give this to you. Master asked me to tell you to live well and avenge him in the future. "
Before Shangguan Wenjun sent the ancient bronze box into the void, although he couldn't see Gu Huang, he could vaguely sense it. This kind of feeling had been there since he was young, and ever since he cultivated the Book of Saint Dao, it had become even stronger.
"Shangguan Wenjun, I understand. Cultivate well! Take this thing. If the Nine Cloud Sect is really destroyed, you can leave! You can go to any Blacksmith Guild in the Northern Lands. They will send you to the Spiritual State."
Gu Huang did not appear, but threw the Celestial Artifact Master Token in front of Shangguan Wenjun. This Child had extraordinary talent and could become a great person in the future, but he had no time to care about it now.
"Sect Master, I beg you to save me, master. I can feel him struggling and desperate for his life. He is not dead yet. Sect Master, save me, master! Wen Jun is begging you. "
Shangguan Wenjun suddenly knelt down and kowtowed violently. One by one, he kowtowed until his head was bleeding.
"What did you say? Senior Death-Wishing is still alive? That's impossible! He has been in the dark for half a year. Even if he is still alive, he is no longer a Death-Wishing Taoist, but a puppet of the dark!"
Gu Huang was startled. The Death-Wishing Taoist had already fallen into the darkness. Not everyone had an undying will like his that could forcefully break free from the darkness.
"No, Sect Master, master is really not dead. He is struggling and resisting. Although he is getting weaker and weaker, he is still resisting. Sect Master, this is my talent. No matter where he is, I can more or less sense him. The more familiar I am with someone, the more I can sense him."
"It's a pity that my Divine Sense isn't strong enough, or else I would be able to ignore the barrier of space and communicate directly with it. Sect Master, please believe me, master is really still alive."
Shangguan Wenjun's eyes were filled with pleading. He felt everything that happened to the Death-Wishing Daoist, and he wished that he could bear it for him. However, he was too weak and couldn't do it at all.
"Brat, this Child is not simple! If I'm not wrong, even in the boundless universe for millions of years, there might not be a single listener who can see through the sounds of all things, feel the heart of heaven and earth, and cultivate to the Great Perfection, can listen to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earth, Jiu You's Underworld Palace, and can detect everything!"
"Boy, you've picked up a treasure! If this little guy is nurtured well, his future will be limitless. Since he can see through it, then it can't be wrong. Maybe that little cow's nose doesn't have a trace of Genuine Spirit, but whether you save him or not is entirely up to you. The price is too great, so you have to think about it carefully."
The elder couldn't help but exclaim, Listeners! The sound of understanding all things could ignore all obstructions. As long as one was locked onto by it, there was no way to escape.
"Wenjun, get up! Since Senior's will hasn't been destroyed, I can't just stand by and watch. Can you lock onto his position?"
Gu Huang was extremely shocked in his heart. How could an existence that was highly respected by the Heaven Suppressing Stele Spirit be so simple? If this talent was used well, it would be able to reverse everything.
Just the ability to ignore space was incomparably terrifying. This kind of talent was impossible to find.
"Sect Master, I don't know the exact location of master. That place is like an abyss. It is endless darkness and deathly silent."
A trace of hope ignited in Shangguan Wenjun's eyes, but his expression was still extremely distressed.
"Endless darkness, like an abyss? I think I know. You can stay here! I will do my best to save him, but I can't guarantee that I can bring him out."
Gu Huang did not dare to promise. After all, this trip was filled with danger, and there was an unknown existence in the depths of the darkness. Even he did not know what it was, so he could only try his best to save it.
"Sect Master, if possible, please bring me along!" Shangguan Wenjun's eyes were filled with determination and desire.
"Nonsense, Shangguan Wenjun, cultivate well, that's the way to go. If I die, the Nine Cloud Sect will need your help in the future. I'm leaving, don't tell anyone I showed up."
Gu Huang scolded angrily, his voice filled with sternness. It could not be denied that Shangguan Wenjun's talent was not bad, and his temperament and willpower were also above average. He was born with the profound meaning of Confucianism, but in the end, he was still too weak.
"Sect Master..." Shangguan Wenjun spoke, but there was no response for a long time. Obviously, the Sect Master had disappeared. He looked up to the sky, full of unwillingness. Was he still too weak in the end? I must become stronger, stronger, just like Eldest Miss and the Sovereign.
In Snow Jade City, Gu Huang's figure appeared in the sky, but he had already been reduced to ruins.
Gu Huang looked up at the sky and let out a long sigh. He did not know how Little Sister Linglong was doing. Back then, he did not have the time to ask her to retreat. Other than Master Lian and Long Liezi, no one in the Northern Lands knew about their relationship.
With the protection of the Flame of Life and the Three Light Divine Flame, he believed that ordinary people would not be able to do anything to her. She should have already left the Azure Province!
Thinking about it, Gu Huang couldn't help but feel extremely guilty in his heart. This was his sworn sister, so he simply shot out a Message Talisman, turning into a golden divine light and disappearing from the world.
Sister, I am sorry. Big brother didn't take care of you in time. If you can survive this time, I will make it up to you a hundred thousand times more and teach you everything myself.
"Are you done? It is time to reverse the destiny and end everything." The old man's voice sounded a bit sad. This battle represented destiny.
Whether it was Xue Yun or Gu Huang, neither side would give up. Only one side could survive.
Gu Huang looked up at the sky, as if he could see through the Heavenly Dao of ten directions with a single glance. It was as if he could see through eternity. Destiny was predestined, and the battle of destiny was decided by who.
The existence of the world, no matter who you are, plays with the fate of all creatures in the palm of your hand. One day, when I, Gu Huang, reach the peak, I will personally knock you down from the clouds.
