I have been bound in a forbidden place for five hundred years. Why are you crying when I am a casual

After all, he is a person with no eyelashes, but at least in terms of his shrewdness and scheming, Master Baiyu is indeed unique.

At least.

Even Gu Xiu didn't realize that someone had tampered with the talisman fire in front of him.

The only one who was confused was Ji Qinghan. She didn't know what her master wanted to do with the jade hairpin that was connected to her life, but she still noticed something wrong, especially when she saw the talisman fire that Gu Xiu took back into his hand.

No reason.

She felt that this seemed to be related to herself.

"Thank you for your help, senior." Gu Xiu didn't know these things. He took the talisman fire and examined it carefully. When he was sure that the Dao rhyme of heaven and earth fused on the talisman fire had reached the limit and perfection, he finally stopped hesitating.

Holding the talisman fire, Gu Xiu immediately sat cross-legged.

The talisman fire has reached perfection, so there is only one thing he needs to do next.

ignite.

The second soul lamp!

"Qinghan!" It was Master Baiyu who suddenly shouted at this moment.

Ji Qinghan didn't understand why, but he stepped out immediately: "Disciple is here!"

"Igniting the soul fire means that one will then have to go through the tribulation of the seven emotions. This process varies from person to person, but one thing is certain: at this time, because the cultivator's soul is completely trapped in the tribulation of the seven emotions, the cultivator's physical body will often become more fragile and in greater danger."

"I command that you stay close to Gu Xiu and protect him when he is lighting the soul lamp and overcoming the tribulation. You must always be by his side, helping him solve all problems and defeat all enemies with evil intentions!"

Ji Qinghan naturally couldn't refuse what Master Baiyu said.

He immediately nodded and agreed.

Neither Gu Xiu nor she knew what Master Bai Yu was thinking. However, at this moment, no one really cared about Master Bai Yu's true thoughts, because the old drunkard also walked out of the side hall.

He saw through Master Baiyu's methods.

But he did not expose it.

After taking a deep look at Master Baiyu, he said to Gu Xiu:

"Although I don't know how you managed to pass the first of the Seven Emotions Tribulations, I think you should have noticed something when you went through it. When you went through the tribulation, your body was completely defenseless and you completely lost all control."

"The mysterious existence beneath the Immortal Burial Valley will definitely not just sit there and watch you successfully overcome the tribulation. It may even counterattack your advancement."

"So, next I will unleash the full might of the Mohan Tower to fight all the dangers that may come. As for personal protection, this little girl will be responsible for it. Try not to be wary of her. This will ensure that you are in the best condition to survive this Seven Emotions Lighting Disaster."

"But there's one thing you need to pay attention to."

"In the Tribulation of the Seven Emotions, the key is to stay true to your nature. No matter what happens, maintain your original heart and make the choice you believe is the best. Don't be burdened."

In the end, he still did not remind Gu Xiu of the method used by True Man Bai Yu in the talisman fire.

but……

Privately, the old drunkard sent a message to Master Baiyu:

"I don't agree with your approach, but I won't stop you."

"There's just one thing I need to remind you of."

"Your actions may indeed make them both destined to be together. But they may also encounter unexpected disasters, or even unimaginable backlash."

"No matter what happens next, if Gu Xiu is in danger, I will prioritize protecting him. As for your disciple..."

"It depends on her fate."

He chose to let nature take its course.

True Man Bai Yu had no objection to this. On the contrary, there was a hint of satisfaction in his eyes. He paid a huge price to push this talisman fire to perfection.

But these costs are not as important as leaving hope for Baiyu Tower.

"Thank you." Gu Xiu didn't know the twists and turns here. Seeing that Ji Qinghan had obediently come to his side, he didn't hesitate. After nodding politely at the other party, he immediately sat cross-legged with his eyes closed and began to use all his strength to activate the talisman fire in his hand.

Under his urging, the flame of the talisman fire suddenly flickered, and then began to transform into one flame after another that was so tiny that it was almost invisible to the naked eye, and began to penetrate into Gu Xiu's eyebrows little by little.

Passing through the center of the eyebrows is the sea of ​​consciousness of the soul.

And these flames began to consciously converge towards the second of the seven soul lamps.

He wants to light the soul lamp!

As for the rest, don’t think too much about it for now.

While he was concentrating on practicing, he did not notice that both the old drunkard and Bai Yu Zhenren were looking at him with a hint of nervousness in their eyes.

Are the methods used by Master Baiyu really useful?

No one can be sure.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Gu Xiu's mind was completely immersed in his sea of ​​consciousness. He was guiding the small flames little by little to converge towards the second soul lamp. The whole process was not easy, but fortunately it was smooth.

only……

After trying for a while, Gu Xiu frowned:

"Why do I feel that this soul lamp seems to be ignited by more than just the talisman fire, but also carries some special power?"

"Forget it, the most urgent thing is to light this soul lamp."

"As for the rest..."

"Ask later."

He put his thoughts aside and tried his best again, but when everything was going smoothly on his side, Ji Qinghan, who was standing next to him, looked increasingly worse.

She felt as if her strength was draining away rapidly.

Including your own life span.

She just felt as if the magic weapon that she had dedicated her life to was being destroyed bit by bit, and as a cultivator who had dedicated her life to this practice, her entire strength was being drained away bit by bit.

At first, no one noticed this situation.

until……

"puff!"

Ji Qinghan spat out a mouthful of blood without any warning, shocking everyone present.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?"

"Sister, are you okay?"

"What happened? Senior Sister, why did you suddenly become so weak?"

There was obviously no danger at the moment, but Ji Qinghan was suddenly seriously injured without any warning. Anyone would find it unbelievable.

Faced with these inquiries, Ji Qinghan had no idea the connection here.

Although she felt the situation was very bad at the moment, she still stood beside Gu Xiu: "I'm fine, don't worry about me. Maybe I was seriously injured outside just now."

This……

Everyone looked at each other, somewhat in disbelief, but unable to put their finger on the reason.

I can only bear it and wait patiently.

Can……

"Cough, cough, cough!"

"puff!"

As Gu Xiu continued to practice, Ji Qinghan's condition became worse and worse. In a short period of time, she went from being full of energy and spirit to a seriously injured body that seemed to be at the end of its life and about to be wiped out from the world. However, no one present could tell what had happened.

"Senior Sister, how about I take your place?" Someone couldn't help but take the initiative to suggest.

This scene is so weird.

It was obviously Gu Xiu who was practicing, and Ji Qinghan was just standing by to guard him. He did not encounter any danger from beginning to end. However, even in this situation where there was no danger, Ji Qinghan seemed to have suffered a serious injury, and his previous minor injury turned into a serious injury.

even.

The situation continues to get worse.

"You should stop." The old drunkard couldn't help but whisper to Master Baiyu.

At this moment, Master Baiyu was staring at Ji Qinghan intently, ignoring everything around him.

The old drunkard frowned and couldn't help but remind him again:

"I've said before, Gu Xiu is extraordinary. Your methods are useless against him. Even the magical weapon that Ji Qinghan risked her life for has been melted into the talisman fire by you. If this little girl can't hold on any longer, she will die here. She won't have any chance."

"If they were truly destined to be together, they should have been out of danger by now. If they continue to persist, she might be outlasted."

Just a pity.

True Man Baiyu still ignored them and continued to stare at Gu Xiu and Ji Qinghan.

for the rest of the time.

It was unbelievable to everyone present.

Because of Ji Qinghan, he was seriously injured in public.

Her life essence was rapidly dissipating. As time went by, she, who was originally full of energy and spirit because of her sufficient lifespan, was forced to turn into a pitiful person who seemed to have only a few years to live, or even would die soon.

even.

Dense wounds began to appear on her body.

This time, Master Baiyu finally lost his patience:

"How could this happen? Why is this happening?"

"This shouldn't be the case."

"Qinghan is my disciple, so there's no way he's unworthy of Gu Xiu. Why did the marriage I signed for them turn out like this?"

The old drunkard couldn't help but remind her again, "They are destined not to be together. If they continue like this, the little girl will die here."

"Wait a little longer, wait a little longer, this is impossible!" Master Baiyu murmured.

The old drunkard is still trying to persuade:

"If we wait any longer, these injuries will be irreversible. The disciple you consider the most talented will end up being killed by you!"

"A forced melon is not sweet. They are destined not to be together."

"If you continue to act so stubbornly, you will be violating the will of heaven!"

Just a pity.

Master Bai Yu turned a deaf ear to the old drunkard's words, and his eyes were still fixed on Gu Xiu and Ji Qinghan, as if he was in a trance.

The old drunkard frowned, seeing that Ji Qinghan was unwilling to listen to advice and still insisted on doing things his own way. Especially when he saw that Ji Qinghan's life was almost coming to an end, the old drunkard could not help but grit his teeth:

"I can't let you do something like this!"

After saying that, he immediately pinched his fingers to make a hand gesture, intending to borrow the power of Mo Hanlou to interrupt the actions of Bai Yu Zhenren. However, just as he was about to take action, a loud roar was heard suddenly, and then he saw outside that the tentacles that had temporarily retreated began to stretch out frantically.

Without any choice.

The old drunkard who had originally planned to stop them had to give up his action temporarily and sat cross-legged in the center of the hall again, and began to concentrate on mobilizing the power of Mo Hanlou to resist the attack from outside.

And in this process.

Ji Qinghan's life seemed to have come to an end.

Although her appearance had not changed at all, her eyes looked like those of a dying person, filled with infinite confusion.

"This is impossible!"

"This shouldn't be the case!"

"Why is this happening? Why is this happening?"

True Man Bai Yu was still muttering to himself. He was unwilling to fail and unwilling to accept that his disciple was not even worthy of Gu Xiu.

Yes.

Not worthy of Gu Xiu.

Only this reason could explain why the two of them had not yet become entangled in marriage even though Ji Qinghan was about to die.

at last.

When Ji Qinghan was about to die, Master Baiyu finally lost his patience and immediately used the magic formula that he had already pinched in his hands.

He didn't understand why he failed.

but……

He really couldn't keep trying, otherwise Ji Qinghan would die here.

only……

Just when he was about to give up his action, he saw Ji Qinghan, who had obviously lost all his life essence, suddenly seemed to have received a favor from his eyes, and his originally bad condition actually recovered visibly.

The cloudy eyes began to brighten again.

The cracks on his body began to repair without warning.

And all the life essence she had lost was also rapidly replenished.

This scene made Master Bai Yu's eyes light up.

done?

But soon, he couldn't help frowning again.

No success!

The marriage between the two cannot be entangled!

seem……

It's destined, we are not meant to be together!
