Chapter 265

Instead of sparing Chiyou's life for this reason, it is better to cut it off directly to avoid future troubles.

"Don't give up. Even if there is only one in ten thousand possibilities, never give up. I want to change this imperfect ending into the way I want it――this was taught to me by one of my dearest teachers."

"Bai Ge..."

"Rest assured, the real you must still be saved. And Ji Lin, you have also seen my strength. If Chiyou dares to make trouble again, I will just come with another sword, won't that be the end of it."

Bai Ge tapped the sword bodies of Shamash's Judgment and Surtr against each other. Although the two blows just now couldn't be said to be basic attacks, he could still release them five or six times.

Most importantly, knowing the plot, he knew clearly that Ji Lin was really still in Chiyou's body and there was a possibility of rescue. Since that was the case, giving up like this didn't fit his will.

"Bai Ge, what exactly were you just now?"

"Do you still want to banish it to the Sea of Quanta now?"

At the same time, Mei and Welt also rushed over.

The former's eyes carried obvious admiration.

The latter's gaze towards him also carried awe.

"You came just in time. I am going to enter Chiyou's body to save people next. Mei, Welt, you help me watch outside a bit and don't let this guy recover."

"Save people? In Chiyou's body... Could it be that the person you want to save is the Yellow Emperor who sealed Chiyou five thousand years ago, Ji Lin?!"

Welt showed a shocked expression. He found that with Bai Ge by his side, he was always so surprised. This boy was always so good at making unexpected moves.

Mei didn't know much about the legends of Shenzhou. She worriedly held Bai Ge's hand.

"Rest assured Mei, I'll be back soon, and I am a Shenzhou person after all." (Although this Shenzhou is not my home)

"... Hehe, even if it's just an ordinary person, I believe Bai Ge will definitely go to save them. You are such a person."

Mei showed a helpless smile.

Doesn't she understand this person's character? Saving people doesn't need a reason for him.

Bai Ge was stunned for a moment, then raised his hand to touch the girl's hair and kissed the horn on Mei's head.

"I'll be back soon."

"Hmm, I'll wait for you here."

(Originally wanted to kiss the forehead, but this pair of horns on Mei's head will poke me...)

Bai Ge came to the dying Chiyou, kicked open its giant mouth that swallowed everything, and rushed in.

Chiyou's body was dark and gloomy, but the flames of the Herrscher of Flame could illuminate this darkness.

After rushing for a long time, Bai Ge sighed. Chiyou's body was simply an imaginary space, so huge that it seemed to have no boundaries. He even saw many island-like lands floating in this space.

"Ji Lin, are these...?"

"That's right, the land of Shenzhou swallowed by this evil beast five thousand years ago."

"What a damn evil beast, tsk! Let's hurry up and find someone. Let me sense the Honkai energy of Chiyou's heart... It's in this direction!!"

According to the memories of his previous life, Bai Ge remembered that the giant beast Chiyou had three cores. Five thousand years ago, Cang Xuan and Zhu Dan sacrificed their lives to seal two cores.

The remaining core, which was the main heart, was sealed by Ji Lin with her Xuanyuan Sword.

Relying on the Herrscher-level Honkai energy perception, Bai Ge quickly distinguished the direction of the heart and immediately rushed towards it.

Not long after, he arrived at the target location.

That was a dark red ground platform, and the huge purple crystal floating on the platform was Chiyou's heart. The Honkai energy fluctuation emitted from it was not even inferior to a Herrscher.

When Bai Ge arrived, a voice appeared in his mind out of thin air, and it was exactly the same female voice he heard when he pulled out the Xuanyuan Sword earlier.

"The person chosen by Honkai, and also the person who liberated me from the thousand-year seal. I don't want to kill you, but if you insist on coming to die, then I have no choice but to fulfill you."

"This voice, is it really like this."

The next second, a girl riding a black warhorse suddenly appeared in front of Bai Ge. (See picture)

The girl's skin, which should have been rosy, was as pale as a dead person. Her vermilion eyes, which should have been gentle, were filled with violent gold.

Most of the gorgeous hair ornaments on her head disappeared, a head of hair was also cut off, and the chaos in the red jade on her forehead represented the darkness of her heart.

She had the exact same appearance as Ji Lin in the Xuanyuan Sword, but the temperament between the two was diametrically opposite.

If one had to describe it, it would be like light and darkness, gold and pitch black, Seele and Dark Seele.

It was just that the bottomless malice, resentment, and despair were to a degree that even Dark Seele couldn't reach.

"【Me】, why did you become like this?"

Ji Lin's remnant soul appeared again. She looked at the other self in front of her with disbelief and pity.

She was still alive, really still alive.

But perhaps in other angles, she was already dead.

That girl who was originally brave and kind, who sealed Chiyou with herself, had now become such a dark and desperate appearance.

"Why did it become like this? In the thousands of years of time, I have been fighting alone in the endless darkness. In this cold, lonely place where I can't see a bit of light, I fell into this appearance. At this moment, only hatred remains in my heart, hatred for what I guarded in the past!"

Ji Lin-Black said so. Her tone carried madness and sorrow, despair and resentment.

She held a black Xuanyuan Sword and pointed it at Bai Ge.

As if considering how to kill him.

"Is it really like this? Even... actually, Chiyou was acting according to your will just now, right."

"Yeah, that's right, you are very smart, boy."

Ji Lin-Black admitted frankly.

In fact, long ago, Chiyou's consciousness had been wiped out. After all, even a Judgment-class Honkai Beast couldn't maintain its self for thousands of years.

The consciousness of a 'beast' is not as tenacious as that of a 'human'.

Ji Lin, who personally entered Chiyou's body and sealed it from the inside, although her consciousness did not dissipate.

But Chiyou's huge body,

also turned into a prison imprisoning Ji Lin.

In the thousand-year years of sealing Chiyou, without hope, without temperature, and without even a bit of light, the girl's loneliness was dyed pitch black, becoming Dark Ji Lin.

How fate plays with people.

Chiyou's giant body turned into a cage imprisoning Ji Lin for five thousand years.

And Ji Lin's will, which fell into darkness, also controlled this Judgment-class Honkai Beast that only had a shell left.

The dragon slayer eventually became the evil dragon.

At this moment, only hatred remains in Ji Lin-Black's heart.

She wants revenge, revenge on what she guarded in the past!

And after feeling her pitch-black will, Chiyou, which only had a shell left, also reacted. After the seal was lifted, it immediately floated up, intending to take revenge on this world.

"The Ji Lin of the past no longer exists. At this moment, I am just a resentful soul taking revenge on the world. Your questions are gone, right? Now you can go to die in peace."

Dark Ji Lin pulled the reins in her hand, and the black warhorse under her crotch immediately rushed towards Bai Ge, and that black Xuanyuan Sword full of murderous intent also stabbed over.

Bai Ge raised Surtr to block the stab, but did not make a further counterattack.

His actions made Ji Lin-Black frown.

"It seems you are really looking for death."

"I'm just confirming."

"What's there to confirm!"

Ji Lin-Black slashed the sword in her hand again with all her might.

In the thousands of years of loneliness, the Xuanyuan Sword, which was dyed pitch black by the girl's loneliness, contained Dark Ji Lin's desperate emotions in addition to powerful Honkai energy.

Bai Ge seemed to be enduring and savoring her despair, taking her sword slashes one after another.

Clang!

A sword stabbing directly at his chest was easily blocked by him.

Da!

The kicking technique of the warhorse was easily dodged by him.

Whoosh!

The sword energy released by the sweep was caught by his hand.

"Enough, it's enough, Bai Ge, please kill this 【Me】, please."

Ji Lin's remnant soul in the Xuanyuan Sword said, unable to bear to look.

In her eyes, the reason why Bai Ge didn't counterattack was because he still believed that this self who fell into darkness could still be saved, or because of her identity as the ancestor of Shenzhou.

And the Ji Lin-Black opposite also seemed to be angered by his attitude. The black girl on the warhorse shouted.

"Why don't you counterattack! I don't need your sympathy, nor do I need your salvation. If you don't kill me, then Chiyou, influenced by my will, will continue to take revenge on the world!"

"... Is it really revenge?"
