Chapter 983: Fallen(1/2)
The starlight drew a beautiful trajectory in the air, as if guiding something.
A trace of determination flashed across Xi Yu's face. He broke free from the bondage of the bronze tentacles and turned to look at Cai Wenshuang: "We must..."
"I understand!" Cai Wenshuang nodded firmly, and she also broke free from the constraints with all her hands tightly.
At this moment, their eyes met, as if they had reached an invisible tacit understanding.
Cai Wenshuang took a deep breath and bit her finger. A drop of bright red blood dripped from her fingertips and fell on the goat pendant.
Xi Yu also bit his finger, and the blood beads and Cai Wenshuang's blood beads merged on the pendant to form a mysterious pattern.
"Double locks resonate, mountains and rivers hang upside down..."
The two people's voices merged into one at this moment, as if they resonated with the Tianji Lock Array.
The blood beads on the pendant gradually gathered into a pattern of a yin and yang fish, and the light gradually increased, as if it was about to swallow everything.
At this moment, the whole city fell into a dead silence, and the light of the Tianji Lock Array suddenly became extremely dazzling.
Everyone's heartbeat seemed to pause for a moment, and an invisible pressure filled the air.
"Change the pendant with twin blood!" Chu Yao's voice sounded again, her
Xi Yu and Cai Wenshuang looked at each other, and they knew that this moment would be the turning point in their destiny.
The blood, warm and sticky, poured out of Xi Yu and Cai Wenshuang's palms.
It was not dripping, but like two restless little snakes, rushing towards the goat pendant.
The pendant seemed to have been hungry for thousands of years, swallowing the blood of the two of them greedily.
The blood beads met on the rough surface of the pendant, and did not splash as expected, but were tightly absorbed together like a magnet.
They slowly squirm, blend and rotate, and eventually form a perfect yin and yang fish pattern.
The pattern is half as bright as fire, half as dark as night, clearly divided and entangled with each other, as if it contains the most primitive mystery between heaven and earth.
Just as the Yin-Yang fish pattern was formed, an indescribable tremor came from the pendant and quickly spread to the entire space.
The tremor is not a physical shaking, but more like some invisible ripple that swept through everyone's soul.
First there was a subtle buzzing sound, like countless bees flapping their wings in their ears.
Immediately afterwards, the buzzing sound suddenly rose and turned into a sharp whistle, as if countless sharp blades were rubbing in the air, making people's eardrums hurt.
The light begins to twist.
The blue light that originally enveloped the city seemed to be kneading, stretching, and deformed by an invisible big hand.
The outline of the building became blurred, the direction of the street became weird, and even the figures of people began to appear, as if they would be torn into countless pieces at any time.
The air becomes viscous like solidified glue.
Every breath of breath seems to tear my lungs apart.
"Click...Click..."
That was Sima Zhao's puppet general.
This huge creature made up of countless bronze parts was originally indestructible and aggressive.
At this moment, it is like an antique that has been eroded by time for thousands of years, with countless fine cracks on the surface.
The cracks quickly expanded and spread. Finally, accompanied by a sensation of shattering sound, the entire puppet general collapsed and turned into a pile of lifeless bronze fragments, scattered on the ground.
And where the puppet general was originally standing, a towering altar was revealed.
The altar is made of huge stones, with a simple shape and full of primitive wildness.
The surface of the altar is engraved with strange symbols and patterns, like an ancient text or a mysterious spell.
In the center of the altar is a huge pit, and something seems to be slowly surging in the pit.
"Is this...the altar for the mountain people?" someone exclaimed.
The sound has not fallen, and the change has reappeared.
The earth began to shake violently.
Huge cracks spread from the bottom of the altar, quickly covering the entire ground like a spider web.
A purple light gushed out from the crack, and the light was strange and bizarre, full of ominous aura.
A figure slowly rose from the crack.
It's a girl in purple.
But this time, she no longer looked like she had the weak and remnant soul before.
Her body became solid, plump, and full of the breath of life.
Her eyes were flashing with purple light, like two burning ghost fires.
In her hand, there was a man.
It's Cai's father.
At this moment, Cai's father, his eyes were closed, his face was pale, and he had already fainted.
The girl in purple laughed to the sky, her laughter sharply, as if the night owl was crying: "Do you think I am a remnant soul? Stupid! I am the real one..."
Before he finished speaking, a sudden change occurred!
Xi Yu and Cai Wenshuang felt an irresistible force almost at the same time, pulling them towards the goat pendant.
The Yin-Yang Fish pattern on the pendant seemed to have turned into a black hole at this moment, swallowing everything around.
The two of them felt a flash in front of them, and their bodies seemed to have been torn into countless pieces, and then they were forcibly pieced together.
They were sucked into the pendant!
To be more precise, it was sucked into a space-time crack!
The crack was in the center of the Yin-Yang Fish pattern, and a dark and bottomless vortex.
The laughter of the girl in purple stopped abruptly.
She looked at everything in front of her in horror, as if she wanted to stop it, but it was too late.
"Dang..."
A crisp sound echoed in the quiet space.
It was a half-break bronze chime that rolled down from the altar and fell to the ground, making a wave of powerless wailing, and it lay alone, as if telling an ancient and mysterious story.
"No...this is impossible..." The voice of the woman in purple echoed on the empty altar with a hint of trembling and despair.
The sharp scream of the woman in purple stopped abruptly, like a crow strangled.
She watched the two of them be sucked into the pendant, and the twisted expression on her face was even worse than crying.
"No... impossible..." she murmured to herself, her voice trembling as if it were still leaves in the wind.
The half-bronze chime on the altar rolled down with a "clang" sound, which was particularly harsh in the silence, as if mocking her powerlessness.
In the cracks in time and space, Xi Yu and Cai Wenshuang were like falling into a bottomless abyss.
The strong wind whistled, tearing their clothes, and the cold and bone-banging air poured into the hearts, making people suffocate.
There was chaos around, and only countless golden runes flashed like fireflies, like some ancient spell, mysterious and weird.
Xi Yu's consciousness began to blur, and his chest felt a little severely as tight as he felt. He knew that he couldn't last long.
He opened his eyes with difficulty, but saw Cai Wenshuang looking at him in horror, his eyes full of helplessness and despair.
"Xi Yu..." Cai Wenshuang's voice trembled, with a hint of crying.
She stretched out her hand and wanted to touch Xi Yu, but she didn't dare, for fear of aggravating his injuries.
"Don't be afraid..." Xi Yu said two words weakly, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He felt his vitality was passing by quickly, and the world in front of him became darker and darker.
Suddenly, Cai Wenshuang retracted her hand like an electric shock. She widened her eyes in disbelief, "Your wound...it...it is healing!"
The wound that was still bloody just now was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. The bright red blood gradually solidified, forming a thin layer of scab.
Xi Yu also felt something strange. He looked down at his chest, and a warm current surged out of the wound and flowed all over his body.
Almost at the same time, Cai Wenshuang felt dizzy, and the goat pendant shook violently on her chest, as if she was about to break out of her body.
She subconsciously grabbed the pendant and a powerful force poured into her body, making her feel unprecedentedly powerful.
"What's going on?" Cai Wenshuang murmured to himself,
At this moment, a strange scene suddenly appeared in the cracks in the space-time cracks.
It was a holographic image, lifelike, as if right in front of you.
In the image, a young and strong mountain man was being held hostage by a man in an official uniform.
The mountain people's face was full of anger and reluctance, but the man in the official uniform looked cold and had a hint of joke in his eyes.
"Dad!" Cai Wenshuang exclaimed. She recognized the mountain citizen in the image, which was her father when she was young!
And that man in the official uniform... turned out to be Xi Yu from twenty years ago!
"This...how is this possible?" Cai Wenshuang shook her head in disbelief. She couldn't understand what was happening in front of her.
Xi Yu also saw this image. It turned out that there was a mysterious symbiotic relationship between the bloodlines of the mountain people and the prime minister.
Twenty years ago, he took Cai Wenshuang's father hostage, accidentally triggered this symbiotic relationship and destined their entanglement in this life.
"So that's it..." Xi Yu smiled bitterly, and he finally understood that all this was the arrangement of fate.
At this moment, a bronze arm suddenly stretched out at the other end of the crack in time and space, grabbed Cai Wenshuang like a ghost.
The arm was covered with ancient runes, exuding a suffocating pressure.
To be continued...
