Chapter 456: Death of the Qi Chi

"Don't!"

Seeing this scene, Long Xuan was shocked.

On the steps, Gu cultivators would lose all their abilities. The measure of strength between the two sides only depended on the strength of their physical bodies.

And humans are born with weak physical bodies, while spirit beasts' physical strength is naturally ten times stronger than humans.

On this step, spirit beasts hitting humans is like hitting grandchildren. What's more, this Qi Chi was a fourth-rank spirit beast, a Beast King, and his physical strength was stronger than the vast majority of spirit beasts.

With her Misfortune Gu restrained, what chance of winning did Zhu Jiuge have against the Qi Chi?

Things were just as he expected. Zhu Jiuge, an underage person under eighteen, had been refining her body for how long? Although her physical strength was not weak, it was still too far away from the Qi Chi. After only a few moves, she was hit off the altar by the Qi Chi with a stick.

Zhu Jiuge rolled heavily down the steps, rolled out of the altar, and when Long Xuan saw her, she was already covered in blood and had fallen into a deep coma.

He hurriedly ran over, stretched his finger under Zhu Jiuge's nose, and quickly checked her injuries.

For a long time, Long Xuan's heart slowly sank.

The Qi Chi's stick clearly used ten percent of his strength.

Under this stick, Zhu Jiuge's injuries were too heavy, with multiple bones and internal organs broken. The most troublesome thing was that the thing that injured her was a divine artifact, and the divine artifact had a strange power that was preventing her injuries from healing.

If it were anyone else, they would have died eight hundred times in this situation.

It was only because she relied on her heaven-defying luck that she was forcibly hanging on to her life under heaven-defying luck, otherwise, anyone would have died in this kind of injury.

Long Xuan hurriedly grabbed a handful of healing pills and threw them into her mouth. Although these pills were of high quality, they could only heal external injuries and could not eliminate the divine power left in the body by the divine artifact. To save her life, he had to find another way.

At this time, a group of Gu Kings behind also finally arrived. Looking at this huge altar in front of them, all the Gu Kings revealed a look of shock and slowly stopped their footsteps.

"Such a big altar, this should be the black altar that can restrain all abilities. Everyone, don't go up first. On the altar, no one will be the opponent of this spirit beast." Jiu Kang hurriedly reminded.

"Is the Otherworld Flower on the altar? Let me see how this Qi Chi dies!"

Zhuge Yuan looked at the black figure on the altar, clenched his fists, and a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Hehe! We just need to wait patiently. He will play himself to death, and we don't need to take action at all." He Jiong curled his mouth and looked at the altar playfully.

Not long after, the surroundings of the altar were already surrounded by people, about two hundred people, but most of them were Gu Kings, and there were very few Spirit Sea stage Gu cultivators who could successfully walk here.

But everyone stood quietly around the altar, and no one stepped onto the altar.

At this time, the Qi Chi had walked onto the altar. Looking at the bright red Otherworld Flower in the center of the altar, he was so excited that his eyes turned red, his breathing was rapid, and he rushed over without hesitation, immediately picking this flower.

At this moment, the people watching under the altar all held their breath, and pairs of gazes gathered on the Qi Chi, looking forward to what would happen next.

It didn't make them wait long. Not long after the Qi Chi picked the Otherworld Flower, two phantom images of an old man and a young girl appeared in front of him.

The old man looked at him kindly, and the young girl had a playful smile.

Seeing these two figures, the Qi Chi's legs seemed to have lost all strength, and his knees knelt heavily on the ground.

"Master... Senior Sister..."

His voice was choked, and his eyes were already filled with tears...

Under the altar, Jiu Kang saw this touching scene and sighed: "Two phantom images appeared on the altar. It seems that these two are the people he wants to resurrect."

"However, the Otherworld Flower can only resurrect one person. Who will he choose to resurrect?"

"Is it to resurrect his respected master, or to resurrect the senior sister with special feelings? It's really a difficult multiple-choice question."

"I think he must be very conflicted at this time!"

Zhuge Yuan stroked his beard and said: "No matter who he chooses to resurrect, once he picks this Otherworld Flower, he is dead."

"With the Qi Chi dead, the danger of the human race is solved, and our mission is considered complete."

"It's a pity!" Cha Shan shook his head and sighed: "The Qi Chi holds a divine artifact, his combat power is heaven-defying, and no one in the entire Central Earth can stop him. Even if a thousand Gu Kings were dispatched, they couldn't take him down. I didn't expect him to die here so simply." Cha Shan's eyes were full of respect.

Long Xuan looked at the kind-faced old man on the altar, and then at the playful and cute young girl.

Choosing the master means giving up the senior sister, and choosing the senior sister means giving up the master. The two cannot be obtained at the same time. No matter which one he gives up, the Qi Chi will be extremely painful. In his heart, both are equally important. Forcing him to choose one between the two is simply forcing him.

At this moment, Long Xuan was also curious about what choice he would finally make.

On the altar, the Qi Chi looked at the master on the right, and then at the senior sister on the left, his fists clenched tightly, his expression extremely painful, and he couldn't make a choice for a long time.

Thinking of the master's meticulous care for him, thinking of the senior sister who sent him a bowl of hot soup on a snowy day, both were relatives he couldn't let go of, and both were equally important in his heart.

Time passed minute by minute. The Qi Chi had been kneeling on the altar for a long time, but he couldn't make any choice.

Finally, in everyone's suspicious gaze, his body began to turn into dust bit by bit, floating in the air.

That old phantom and the playful young girl phantom also began to dissipate slowly like bubbles.

Time was up. Within the limited time, he didn't make any choice. The Otherworld Flower swallowed his vitality, and didn't resurrect anyone.

At this moment, the Qi Chi opened his arms, letting his body dissipate bit by bit, and a smile appeared on his face, as if it were relief, and as if it were a relief from a heavy burden. In the smile, his figure turned into ash and slowly floated in the air.

The Qi Chi disappeared, and the two phantoms also disappeared. Everyone was dumbfounded.

The Qi Chi didn't resurrect anyone. This was something no one expected.

"Pity, he was too conflicted, so he missed the time, and no one was resurrected." Jiu Kang said regretfully.

"Maybe this is his helplessness. Saving one person means killing another. How can this make him choose? No matter how he chooses, he has to endure extreme pain and leave endless regrets."

"Personally going down to accompany them, not separating from each other, maybe this is the last thought before he died." Cha Shan sighed, his tone a bit sentimental.

"It's a pity for this Otherworld Flower. Such a divine flower rarely blooms once, but he wasted it and didn't use it, wasting a good opportunity to resurrect one person in vain."

"I really wanted to see how the Otherworld Flower resurrects people. Legends are not necessarily true. Without seeing it with my own eyes, I really can't imagine that there would be divine objects in the world that can resurrect the dead."

Zhuge Yuan stroked his beard, very disappointed. (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 457 =====
