Chapter 323: Where there is light, there is hope

~8 min read 1,415 words

When Zhang Xingyu saw Huoxing Tongzi again, he was whistling with the other Gourd Brothers.

Zhang Xingyu let out a long sigh: This Gourd World is truly boring. One can whistle for fifty years without getting tired of it.

Seeing Zhang Xingyu appear, the seven Gourd Brothers were very happy.

They pestered Zhang Xingyu, wanting him to teach them to play some other games.

Zhang Xingyu did know quite a few games.

Shooting games, role-playing games, real-time strategy games, board and card games.

Although there were many games, unfortunately, he had no computer in his hand, nor any auxiliary props.

After lowering his head and thinking for a while, he drew six horizontal and six vertical lines on the ground with stones.

Six-piece chess.

This game was relatively simple and very satisfying to play.

Hmm. Just teach the Gourd Brothers this game.

This game should be able to keep them occupied for a while.

Zhang Xingyu simply introduced the rules of the game to the seven little guys and then sent them off to play by themselves.

The Gourd Brothers happily went off to play.

Zhang Xingyu calmed his mind and lowered his head to think about how to spend the days ahead.

Thinking and thinking, he still felt that he should find a way to get out.

There were no relatives here, no brothers, no blue sky, no white clouds, no handsome men, no beautiful women, no computers, no mobile phones...

This was simply a prison.

Staying in prison to look after a group of children—such days were truly unbearable.

Go back, must go back!

Zhang Xingyu was lost in thought when suddenly a "wa" sound came from his ear.

He looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the little guy who was all glowing was standing alone to the side crying.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Xingyu asked.

"They are all playing, no one is playing with me. Wa..." the little guy cried loudly.

Zhang Xingyu was speechless.

Six-piece chess is played in pairs.

There were seven Gourd Brothers, so playing in pairs would naturally leave one out.

Self-inflicted suffering.

Zhang Xingyu sighed.

He walked helplessly to the front of the glowing child and comforted him softly: "Don't cry, I'll play with you!"

Time passed day by day just like that.

After playing with these little guys for ten days in a row, Zhang Xingyu decided to look for a way out.

He dragged the glowing child over and said: "You always win. If you win against me in this round, you have to take me to visit your Light Plain."

Ten minutes later, Zhang Xingyu stepped into the Light Plain as he wished.

The Light Plain, truly worthy of being a world of light.

Zhang Xingyu was dizzy from the light here.

He thought for a moment and took out a pair of huge sunglasses from his magic ring.

These sunglasses were a gift given to him by the little giant Yake from the Giant Valley in the Demon Realm when they parted.

The giant's sunglasses naturally didn't fit him very well.

Just one lens covered his entire head.

The glowing child found it interesting and clapped his hands, wanting to wear them to try.

His head was even smaller, so no matter how he tried, he couldn't wear them.

There was no other way; Zhang Xingyu had to carry the little guy onto his shoulders. The two of them held up the huge sunglasses, and finally, they were able to make use of this thing.

Unexpectedly, he was amazed by the light here.

As a transmigrator accustomed to city neon lights, Zhang Xingyu thought he would no longer be attracted by any light.

However, when he finally saw these lights clearly under the protection of the sunglasses, he realized he was wrong.

These colorful lights were like dancing elves.

Zhang Xingyu's mind could not help but dance along with these elves.

Rhythm, melody, light and shadow.

Above the Divine Sea, the Divine Infant danced with joy, and rays of seven-colored light flew from its fingertips, drawing one dancing elf after another in the pitch-black void.

These elves were born and died along with the movement.

They used their fleeting beauty to add gorgeous colors to the Divine Court.

The system Black Diamond poked its head out from the void.

It muttered to itself: "This host, he actually learned to paint with light. It looks like he has had good luck again, actually probing a trace of the Dao of Light."

Zhang Xingyu carried the glowing child and wandered aimlessly in the Light Plain.

On his shoulders, the glowing child kept introducing things in his ear.

"Look, that ray of green light is the Light of Life. As long as you get the illumination of the Light of Life, you can fear no death..."

"Look, that beam of pink light is the Light of Hope. As long as the Light of Hope exists, there is hope for success..."

"Look, that wisp of white light is the Light of Healing. As long as you bathe under the Light of Healing, you can overcome any disease..."

Besides these lights, Zhang Xingyu also saw electric light, fire light, sunlight, moonlight, starlight, and he even saw holy light and divine light.

The lights were born and died, and died and were born.

The glowing child beckoned casually, and a Light of Hope landed on his hand.

"Zhang Xingyu, since you played chess with me, I will give you a Light of Hope."

His little hand moved gently, and the Light of Hope slowly merged into Zhang Xingyu's brow.

Divine Court, Divine Sea.

The Light of Hope tore through the void and shot straight into the Divine Infant's forehead.

The Divine Infant's body instantly felt lighter, and an invisible pressure hidden within its body instantly disappeared.

Where there is light, there is hope; where there is hope, one can leave.

At this moment, Zhang Xingyu had a trace of enlightenment in his heart.

Perhaps the Light Plain was the hope for him to leave the Gourd World.

The two walked for ten days and finally arrived at a strange place.

The light here was dense and chaotic; some flashed and disappeared in an instant, while others flowed slowly.

Looking up at the sky along the light, Zhang Xingyu's heart trembled suddenly.

In the sky, a huge vortex of light was constantly spitting out various kinds of light.

In the center of the light vortex, nebulae were faintly flickering and floating.

Zhang Xingyu stared tightly at that light vortex.

The nebulae within the light vortex looked somewhat familiar.

He had a trace of enlightenment in his heart.

Could it be that the nebula in the center of the light vortex was a chaotic river of time?

Zhang Xingyu put down the glowing child on his shoulder.

"Little Light, I want to go near that vortex to take a look, you stay here and wait for me."

"Don't go, Zhang Xingyu. It's very dangerous there." The glowing child pulled Zhang Xingyu's arm tightly.

"It's okay. I'm just going to take a look." Zhang Xingyu patted the glowing child's head.

He summoned the Fire Dragon and slowly flew toward the light vortex.

The mottled light shone on the Fire Dragon, and the Fire Dragon began to shake slightly.

It seemed that these lights had a certain interference effect on the Fire Dragon.

"Fire Dragon, don't be afraid, it's just some light."

Zhang Xingyu comforted the Fire Dragon.

The Fire Dragon shook for a while and finally stabilized again.

The higher he went, the denser the light became.

After the Fire Dragon flew upward for a distance, it began to shake violently.

"Fire Dragon, steady."

Zhang Xingyu encouraged the Fire Dragon.

The Fire Dragon's shaking gradually became smaller.

After a while, one sword and one person gradually approached the light vortex.

The amplitude of the Fire Dragon's shaking became larger and larger.

Zhang Xingyu felt as if he were riding a roller coaster.

His hands gripped the Fire Dragon's blade tightly, fearing that he would fall off if he were not careful.

Just at this moment, a dense beam of light shot out from the light vortex.

The light hit the Fire Dragon squarely.

The Fire Dragon tilted its head and fell downward.

"Ah!"

I'm going to die.

Am I going to be the first Nascent Soul cultivator in the Xuantiandalu to fall to his death? ===== CHAPTER 324 =====
