Chapter 412: Ji You's Astonishment

"People say that the bystander sees clearly, this statement is indeed true, now thinking about it, some things are clear."

"He was indeed incomparably intelligent since childhood, and his mind was more mature. He must have known about my extraordinariness long ago, specifically pretending to be compassionate for many years, in exchange for my favor."

"I made a great vow to return, away from my relatives, I can see the sword heart, but I can't see the human heart. I was indeed like a father and son with him, never thought that the same suffering would breed different characters."

A trace of reminiscence appeared in Chen Fuzi's eyes, and then he looked at the Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan: "But Zixu brother, you seem to have made a bad move."

The Dean of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan slightly narrowed his eyes: "I have been continuing the life of the Heavenly Dao for these years, where did a bad move come from?"

"You harmed Ji You, you should have told him in advance, that way of cultivation is wrong."

Chen Fuzi looked at him expressionlessly.

The inheritance of the Night Watcher comes from the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan, and the last generation of Night Watcher, Cui Lang, was his junior brother.

In this world, no one knows better than him that this lineage's cultivation requires the synchronization of spiritual soul and physical body.

So in other words, he watched Ji You walk into a dead end but didn't stop him.

The old Dean of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan was silent for a moment and then spoke: "I am not the Heavenly Dao after all, unable to confirm whether I am correct, so how dare I influence his life path at will, making his life line shift because of me."

"I know you have a good excuse, so anyone who dies, you can watch coldly."

"No, I didn't do nothing." The old Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan narrowed his eyes, "Although I followed the rules all my life, before I passed away, I still left him a trace of connection."

Chen Fuzi's emotional fluctuations had not been great since he appeared, until this moment, his pupils couldn't help but tremble: "You mean he is still here?"

The old Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan looked at the rolling black night after hearing this: "I don't know."

"What does this mean?"

"Soul locking will not make him dissipate instantly, it will only make him naturally perish when he loses himself, so I left him a trace of connection. He can follow it back, but if he wants to return, he first needs to be able to resist his own will and find himself."

The old Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan looked at him sideways: "If he finds himself again in a one-in-ten-thousand chance, he will need a one-in-ten-million chance to walk out."

Chen Fuzi looked at him: "One-in-a-thousand?"

"He has to tear through the darkness locked by his physical body, keep moving forward, break the shackles, and do nothing else. But his five senses are missing, walking on the road, he has no direction, doesn't know where the front is, but he has to keep moving forward constantly. Compared to his spiritual soul, this feeling is as long as a thousand years."

"You might as well just say he is already dead."

Chen Fuzi's words immediately silenced the Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan.

Tearing through the darkness and walking forward, in terms of difficulty, this is not how difficult and terrible it is.

But the problem is that the darkness is incomparably long and has no direction, and even he himself doesn't know whether he can return by moving forward, which is the most terrible part.

Because there is no hope in such things, and human nature is really hard to resist despair. After Chen Fuzi substituted himself, he understood that this was simply an impossible task.

The Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan naturally understood, so he was silent for a long time when answering just now.

"Human race, is there really no chance?"

After a long silence, Chen Fuzi couldn't help but look at the south where the black night was rolling, and asked softly.

"If there really was a chance, why would we have spent so much effort to stop them back then,"

The Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan sighed: "The Remnant Race itself is the race most compatible with the Heavenly Dao. At the beginning of creation, this world gave them all their talents, and when they use the new Heavenly Dao to fill the gaps in the old Heavenly Dao, they will be the eternal Heavenly Dao."

Chen Fuzi was silent after hearing this, and then sighed softly.

This sigh was very light, but it instantly shattered his physical body.

The yellow soil kept falling, shattering into flying sand all over the sky, and was blown in all directions by the wild wind under the night.

At this moment, he was full of immortal light, with only a trace of spiritual thought left, and then shot into the sky.

He didn't leave this world when he ascended back then, but returned after making a great vow to watch the night for the human race. Now that the night has struck, his wish has failed, and he doesn't have much time left.

Seeing this scene, the Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan looked up and sent him off.

He felt that he should choose to transform into the Dao in this world, because the thunder tribulation of the Heavenly Dao's backlash is very difficult for him to carry now, so it is better to end it himself, which is easy and free.

"Yanliang brother, take care..."

The Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan silently said goodbye, still looking up, intending to see his last scene, but what he didn't expect was that the phenomenon of transforming into the Dao in his imagination did not happen.

The Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan was slightly startled, and then turned into an immortal light and greeted the sky.

Passing through the void, he arrived at a piece of nothingness and whiteness.

This is the place that those in the Approaching Immortal Realm must pass through before ascending, and it is the position closest to the Heavenly Dao.

At this time, Chen Fuzi was standing here, looking ahead without moving, as if staring at something.

The old Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan was puzzled for a moment, and then changed direction and looked at where he was gazing.

Looking down, he saw Ji You standing in the endless whiteness full of golden light, his spiritual thoughts swaying and wild, like jumping firelight.

He seemed to have experienced a fierce battle, his whole body was full of unextinguished Qi, causing roaring sounds in all directions.

Seeing this scene, the old Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

He had just discussed with Chen Fuzi that if Ji You's spiritual soul wanted to wake up, he not only had to defeat his will to find himself, but also face the nothingness and darkness without direction, without time, and even without hope.

Such a scene is suffocating just to think about, seemingly simple but actually impossible to complete.

But he came back, standing right in front of them, fresh and vivid.

"What happened to Qingyun to make it like this?" Seeming to feel the aura of the visitor, Ji You turned his head while panting.

"You actually walked out?"

"It was pitch black, it took a lot of effort, old doctor, long time no see."

The Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan looked at him for a long time before speaking: "You... how long have you been walking?"

"A year? Two years? I don't know, there is no time there, no distance, nothing, I even thought I was walking in place, but can you answer my question first, what happened to Qingyun."

After Ji You finished speaking, he looked at the rolling black night under his feet, the flesh-and-blood storm in the distance, and the green-white figures constantly appearing in the flesh-and-blood storm.

When he walked out of the nothingness and darkness, there was nothing around him, the only thing he could see was Qingyun under his feet.

But the Qingyun he saw was completely different from when he lost consciousness. Not only was the Heavenly Dao chaotic, but there was a strong smell of blood everywhere, as if it were a purgatory on earth, so his heart was full of questions, and he really wanted to know what happened.

And just at this time, the voice of the Abbot of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan rang in his ears.

"The ancient Remnant Race has revived."

Ji You was slightly startled: "Didn't the Remnant Race perish since ancient times? Why did it suddenly revive?"

The Dean of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan shook his head: "In fact, the Remnant Race never perished. More than 1,300 years ago, the Remnant Race Holy Emperor attempted to refine the Heavenly Dao, causing the heavens to be furious, but the one who was furious was actually the new Heavenly Dao born after the ancient Heavenly Dao was refined."

"You mean to say, the Remnant Race succeeded back then?"

"Only succeeded halfway."

Chen Fuzi took over the conversation: "Back then, the Remnant Race Holy Emperor was arrogant and unwilling to be bound by the Heavenly Dao, intending to become the Heavenly Dao himself, but his refining was actually incomplete, so that it instead caused the world to give birth to another Heavenly Dao, sending down Sacred Artifacts to suppress them."

Ji You was stunned for a while after hearing this, and then, as if thinking of something, looked at the rolling black night and said softly: "Could this be the night that the Night Watcher guards?"
