Chapter 2876
Time seemed to have passed for a long, long time, so long that Xia De didn't remember how long he had lived in this forest. He only knew that the moon was getting closer and closer to him.
The crystals he obtained were enough, only missing the last small piece, and that crystal body sealed with brilliant light could be gathered together to become the real original moon remnant.
So on that night that no one recorded, Xia De carried all his crystals and found the traveling businessman in the forest again. At this time, her location had turned into a crystal forest made of crystals. The crystal forest under the moon reflected the cold moonlight and was beautiful, but Xia De knew that the moon he wanted was not here.
The businessman waited for him in the forest as usual. Xia De asked full of hope:
"What do I have to pay this time? So that you can give me the last crystal?"
The businessman didn't show a smile this time, but looked at him with a somewhat solemn expression:
"I originally thought that you were the first one who could put it down. You have your own great goals, and you can easily put down everything else. But even I didn't expect that the moon..."
"Don't change the subject, I only want crystals, I want the moon."
Xia De repeated seriously, so the expression on the businessman's face became sad:
"Such a flawless soul, but unable to put it down because of its own light. The werewolf seems paranoid but has never picked it up, the elf desires a lot but puts it down because of friendship, the green dragon is persistent but knows her responsibility, and even that Chosen One always knows the balance in her heart.
And you, outsider child, do you know what you are doing?"
"Give me the crystal, I want to piece together the sealed moonlight. As long as I touch the remains of the original moon, I will definitely be able to see her!"
Xia De insisted, so the god who turned into a businesswoman was silent. Fortunately, Xia De didn't take action to snatch it, just stared at her quite firmly. The crystal cluster reflected the blurred shadows of the two. Those shadows swayed, but none of them reflected the them at this time.
The moonlight was gentle but cold, and they were silent under the moon waiting for the ending. After a while, the businesswoman asked:
"Why can't you put it down? As long as you understand the truth of 'temperance', it not only means that you have completed my course, but the fairy tale spiritual rune and maze lock that belong to you can also be obtained.
You are a wise man who passed the test. You should understand that I don't want you to give up your persistence, I just want you to understand that sometimes being temperate is also good. After all, the moon is not the only thing in your life."
"Why put it down? Some things can be put down, but some things I can't put down once I pick them up."
Xia De continued to shake his head, raised his head and looked at the huge silver moon above the crystal forest:
"I must see her, I must! The story isn't over yet, is it? Even if the story ends badly, at least I got what I wanted. Now, please give me the last crystal."
The businesswoman also raised her head to look at that moonlight:
"The moon blessed you, but you also because of that moon... although I shouldn't question your greatness, do you really think this is right for him?"
She didn't continue, but reached out and took out the last perfect crystal from her messenger bag. The light it flickered representing the eternal moonlight still made Xia De obsessed.
The businesswoman warned:
"This is our last trade, and this is the ending of this story. Whether you got it from my hand, or actively gave up and let go at the last moment, this story you wrote on the World Tree with your own hands will be truly engraved in your soul.
But different choices mean different futures. Are you really so stubborn about that silver moon, that moon you clearly know is behind you?"
Xia De looked at her, but finally reached out and wanted to take the crystal. But his hand paused at this time, because the businesswoman standing in front of him had a pair of purple eyes at this moment.
The businessman asked him:
"Looking at these eyes, do you still want to say that you must see the moon with your own eyes? I don't want you to completely give up your pursuit, you just should control your obsession and don't forget what you really want."
Luweiya's eyes were looking at him at this time. Although Xia De's hand paused, he still stretched forward afterwards:
"Whether these eyes are looking at me has nothing to do with whether I want to see the moon with my own eyes!"
The sound of speaking mixed with the rustling crystal sound. Xia De, holding the crystal, turned into an eternal crystal statue like the elf in the original story at the end of the story, standing in this magnificent crystal forest.
The power of freezing time triggered the resistance of his own power, and even the eight-ring life ring appeared. But this didn't work, because this was his own choice. As he turned into a crystal statue completely, the crystal life ring also reflected that cold light under the moon.
The expression was frozen in the final joy and relief, but it could be seen that there was still some apology. The god in the night watched him, and it took a long time to return to the appearance of a black robe. He raised his head and looked at the huge silver moon suspended above Xia De's head:
"Do you really think this is good? I know your kindness and gentleness, but I am still puzzled at this moment, is this your means of manipulating him?"
But the moon would not answer her question, but the god smiled again:
"I actually don't regret the choice of this last student, because he hesitated in the end. Between you and those purple eyes, he actually hesitated, between you and that mortal..."
God looked at Xia De who had turned into eternal crystal at this time:
"There is no right or wrong in this course. Your choice is your own heart. But I still regret that you didn't understand the truth of temperance. It doesn't matter, foreign student, dear child, teachers will always give young people a second chance, and I will also give you a second chance."
With a click, clear cracks appeared on the surface of the crystal statue that should have been eternal. And as the clicking sounds connected into a piece, the crystal face had more cracks because of the movement of the mouth.
He didn't return to his original state, just relying on his own soul power, forcibly controlling the crystal that even time couldn't destroy to squirm:
"Even eternity can't change my mind. I want to see her, I must see her!"
The clicking sound also appeared on the life ring. The crystal life ring originally seemed to be frozen under the moonlight, but at this time it rotated slowly. While the life ring rotated, the crystal fragments attached to the life ring fell rustlingly, and the crystalized Xia De even turned his body covered with cracks to the back at this moment, looking at the crystals he brought that piled up like a mountain.
God flew to the night sky silently, watching him hold the last crystal, and threw himself into the pile of crystals together with his body.
So the originally silent crystal forest erupted with unparalleled brilliant moonlight at this moment, as if the moon had fallen into the forest at this moment, and as if the moon had originally been there.
The huge life ring covered with cracks rotated rapidly in that silver moonlight. The crystal fragments splashed everywhere by the life ring made the crystal forest that originally only occupied a small area in the forest expand rapidly outwards.
And in the very center of this expanding forest, the blasphemous silver spiritual light and the originally brilliant moonlight could no longer be distinguished. The life ring that turned back to brass color absorbed these silver-white lights while rotating and turned faster and faster, while Xia De in the crystal opened his arms as if to embrace the light at this moment.
Even the god watching the forest mutation in the sky didn't know what he was holding at this moment. After all, this is just a story, and those crystals won't really turn into the remains of the original moon.
But looking at this scene under his feet, God smiled again:
"The quality of a student cannot be judged by just one thing. Stubbornness and persistence are originally difficult to distinguish. Since your stubbornness can even transcend eternity, since your belief can really make you blaspheme the final course, then as a second chance for you, I will also turn 'temperance' into power. When you can put it down in your heart in the future, you can still complete the final lesson.
The sage of creation, the ancient moonlight older than the world, the supervisor who records all things, I hope you allow me to do this."
The god pointed his finger at the rotating life ring, and the new power was truly born at this moment.
【Outsider, you felt "Blasphemy".】
【The elf in the fairy tale was attracted by desire, didn't know when to pull out, and finally let himself fall into a trap. And you, who fell into the fairy tale, were attracted by the moon in the night sky that could not be touched, and finally chose to turn into eternity. The light of the crystal was charming you who didn't know temperance in front, may your stubbornness be with eternity. But when you see the true self in the crystal, you still have a chance, my dear outsider, you still have a chance to turn and leave.】
"No!"
【Outsider, you listened to the blasphemy engraved on the World Tree bark, you wrote the blasphemy of self.】
The rotating life ring gathered all the silver light to one place on the life ring. What was engraved was the fourth spiritual rune belonging to the eighth ring.
【Outsider, you engraved the Silver Blasphemy Spiritual Rune - Crystal Light.】
【You obtained the magic: Maze Lock - Crystal Light. Open the maze lock, summon the endless crystal forest, your stubbornness is enough to freeze time. In the normal state, summon a crystal mirror. If the object seen in the mirror puts down the obsession in the heart, it will obtain new power. This effect also works on the caster himself.】
When Xia De opened his eyes, he was still standing in front of the blackboard on the top floor of the tower, and the bark that wrote the complete "Crystal Light" story floated beside him.
