The whole weird world is waiting for me to go to heaven
Chapter 825 Inverted Temple
Chapter 825 Inverted Temple
When he woke up again, what caught Nalan's eyes was a head full of lush green leaves.
The greenery was so lush that she couldn't help but reach out and grab a handful.
As a result, as soon as he raised his hand, it was ruthlessly slapped away.
"Okay, take a look at yourself first to see if you can adapt."
It was the voice of the Saint.
Nalan was stunned and lowered her head slightly, only to see the saint slowly withdrawing her hand from her chest.
Looking at his chest again, he saw a huge wound that was slowly healing. Tiny sprouts actually grew between the holes, quickly interweaving into layers of tough green tissue like tree trunk fibers.
In the gaps between the tissues, you can vaguely see the beating heart inside.
It is a green wooden heart.
"...Thank you, Saint!"
Nalan suddenly reacted, his eyes were hot, and he was about to kneel down to thank her, but the saint held his shoulders.
"Don't move, you're just fine."
There was a hint of fatigue on the saint's face. Her green skin seemed to have turned a little paler, and even the edges of the leaves on her head were drying up and curling at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Nalan felt a surge of guilt in his heart for a moment, but he didn't know how to express it.
But the saint said nothing more, she just stood up slowly and walked away.
Following her figure, Nalan realized that he was no longer in the original place, but on a cliff. There were people standing around, looking quietly into the distance.
She held her chest, stood up gently, and approached the crowd with trembling steps.
Looking up, I saw a faint light floating in the darkness, at the junction of heaven and earth in the distance.
It was not a firelight, nor a lamplight, but a pure, clear, soft light that carried new hope.
It floats there quietly, like the first ray of morning light when the world was created.
Light, but enough to penetrate all darkness.
It made everyone's heart tremble.
So we know that this is the legendary spirit stone mine.
……
In another world.
A ray of spiritual light suddenly blossomed in Liu Sheng's heart.
That is true aura—a clear glow filled with spiritual energy.
It was as if the light illuminated the darkness before her eyes, making Liu Sheng so dazed that she couldn't see anything else for a moment.
"What's wrong?" Taibai Sword Immortal, who was sitting on the roof drinking, noticed the subtle change in Liu Sheng's breath and asked casually.
Liu Sheng frowned.
After a long pause, he said, "I seem to have seen a spirit stone mine."
The wine that Taibai Sword Immortal had just swallowed came out with a "puff".
"You, what did you say? Spiritual stone mine?"
"The legendary spirit stone mine?"
Liu Sheng nodded slightly.
"That seems to be true."
“However, this inspiration seems to come from another world.”
Unfortunately, cross-border sensing was inherently vague, and she was now at the critical point of a cold night, so the flash of inspiration faded away as if it had never appeared.
Liu Sheng closed his eyes and explored again, but he only felt that the light was far away beyond tens of millions of dimensions.
She suddenly realized that when the world completely fell into the abyss and all of her was completely transformed into "strange particles", perhaps she would be able to communicate freely between different dimensions without any obstacles.
However, at that time, could she still distinguish between right and wrong, good and evil? Could she still distinguish the boundaries of her thoughts - what were her own thoughts and what were imposed by an unknown existence?
She shook her head, gathered her thoughts, and drove the carriage forward at lightning speed.
Taibai Sword Immortal was caught off guard and fell off the roof of the car.
He could have fallen into the giant golden cocoon formed by the small tentacles, but his sword energy was like a hedgehog, and the small tentacles avoided him one after another, leaving a big hole, which caused Taibai Sword Immortal to fall from the clouds.
As soon as he landed on the ground, his round waist flipped over, and just as he was about to turn his body into a sword and fly back, he suddenly heard sobbing sounds coming from afar.
He opened his ears and looked for the sound, only to find that it came from a thin figure behind a rock.
The sound of crying was very loud, and the thin and bulging back was shaking, which made people feel heartbroken.
"Hey, kid, what's wrong with you?" Taibai Sword Immortal squatted down and patted him gently with his hand.
The child screamed at the sound and turned to run away, but was grabbed by the collar from behind and lifted into the air, kicking his feet in the air.
Taibai Sword Immortal turned him over, looked at the tear-stained little face, lifted him up and brought him close to sniff.
The strong smell of alcohol hit the child's face, and he was startled and even more panicked.
This old man has a messy beard, reeks of alcohol, and moves strangely. He doesn't look like a serious person at all!
The old man smelled it for a while, raised his white eyebrows, "You smell of... temple rituals."
"And it's a very bloody kind."
He wrinkled his nose and sneezed a few times.
This smell was all too familiar to him, as he had stayed in the temple for some time and undergone some mysterious rituals.
"Wow--!"
The child couldn't hold it in any longer and burst into tears, "It's all because of you adults! You are so bad! You arrested my grandfather and you want to arrest me... You are all bad!"
The words were incoherent, but they made my heart ache.
Taibai Sword Immortal slowly put him back on the ground, but the child wanted to run away as soon as he landed on the ground, so he was picked up by Taibai Sword Immortal again.
"Slow down, wait a minute, don't be impatient, just make your words clear."
He rubbed his nose, "I'm not from the temple."
After hearing what Taibai Sword Immortal said, the child stopped and looked at him with half belief and half doubt.
But his eyes were full of vigilance.
"You are not from the temple, but why are you wearing white clothes?"
Taibai Sword Immortal was stunned, then scratched his head, looking aggrieved.
"I've been wearing this dress for a long time, but who knew the temple would follow my example and wear it... Damn it..."
The child curled his lips in disbelief: "How could the temple learn from you? Why would the temple learn from you?"
Having said that, he couldn't beat the old man, and if he ran away he would be brought back, so it seemed that he had no choice.
"But you really don't look like someone from the temple... If they had found me, they would have taken me away in a net bag long ago."
"Net bag?" Taibai Sword Immortal frowned.
"Yes!" The child gestured seriously, "I heard it's the big net bag that people use to catch fish on the beach. It's golden and once it pounces on you, you can't get away like a fish."
"Is this how your grandfather was captured?"
"Yeah." He nodded and choked up, "We were arrested together. Later, it was my grandfather and the other adults who secretly let me escape... Otherwise, I would have..."
As he spoke, he looked up at Taibai Sword Immortal, tugged at his sleeve, and pleaded:
"Grandpa, can you...save my grandpa?"
"You're so powerful, you can definitely save her, right?"
Taibai Sword Immortal coughed lightly and said, "You have asked the right person for help."
"Tell me, where is it?"
……
It only took Liu Sheng a moment to realize that Taibai Sword Immortal had disappeared.
She flew down to look for him, only to find that there was a child beside Taibai Sword Immortal, who was said to be named "Yariel".
[For some reason, this name sounds familiar...]
She had an idea, but couldn't remember it for the moment, so she gave up for the time being.
"You want to take him to see Grandpa?"
At this time, Ariel was sitting in the corner of the carriage, holding a large cake in both hands, eating ravenously, with food crumbs all over his face, as if he had been hungry for three days and three nights.
"Yes, but I can go by myself." Taibai Sword Immortal said, "Please drop us off at the place where you are, and I will catch up after I finish my work."
As he spoke, he patted Ariel on the back affectionately: "Eat slowly, don't choke."
As he spoke, he handed over a cup of clear liquid.
Ariel took a sip and immediately choked and started coughing.
"Oh, wrong one, this is wine."
Taibai Sword Immortal then embarrassedly replaced the glass with plain water for him.
Liu Sheng glanced at them.
"Are you treating me like a special car?"
"Well, I thought, I'm fast and won't delay your journey."
"Forget it, I'll go with you." Liu Sheng said after thinking for a while.
"This... won't delay your trip to the North?"
"It's okay. I'm confident in my speed."
"And from what you said, this matter sounds strange. Why would the temple attack ordinary people? What on earth are they going to do after capturing them? What is the purpose of that ceremony?" Liu Sheng said with a frown.
In particular, Liu Sheng has now reached a cooperation between the Zorkin family and the temple.
Nowadays in Mobei, the belief in Mother Earth has quietly spread. So how could the temple suddenly do such a thing?
Unfortunately, Ariel was too young to explain anything clearly.
[Perhaps only some people have reached cooperation, and some are unwilling to obey Mother Earth? ]
Liu Sheng agreed with what the world said.
Think about it again, this is the northern border of the desert, thousands of miles away from Sudan City. If there really is a rebel group plotting something bad, it is not impossible.
Now that he has seen it, Liu Sheng can't just ignore it.
These are all potential believers!
[Also... I feel like I've seen the name Ariel somewhere before.]
Because of this sense of familiarity, Liu Sheng naturally couldn't help but take action.
Moreover, for two people in the Shenzang realm to take action and investigate something is just a matter of convenience. How much time can it take?
Unless there is a high priest level being on the opposite side.
With this thought in mind, the carriage slowly headed in the direction that Ariel had mentioned.
At this time, the carriage flew very low to avoid missing any clues.
In this way, everything on the ground can be seen clearly.
The more Liu Sheng looked, the more his brows furrowed.
On the ground, patches of burned tribes and villages glowed with bright flames in the snow. The burnt remains of tents crackled and smoke rose into the clouds.
But there were no bodies anywhere.
Just as Ariel said, the temple took everyone away, leaving no one behind.
But because of this, the traces are particularly obvious.
With so many people who were unable to practice cultivation being taken away, it was naturally inevitable that footprints would be left on the snow.
Following the deep and shallow footprints in the snow all the way.
Soon after, flames were seen rising into the sky ahead.
It was a big city, but the city walls had been burned black and the air was filled with a strong smell of scorched earth and blood.
Among the ruins, there were many people in white robes patrolling back and forth, maintaining strict security.
Because of the ban, the atmosphere in the city was unclear, and it seemed as if there was some terrifying existence. As a result, it was naturally not easy for Liu Sheng to bring a child in.
She hid the carriage behind a half-burned house in a village outside the city. The traces of the fire had not yet completely cooled down, and the charred wood and broken tiles just concealed the traces.
Ariel was also temporarily left in the dark.
Liu Sheng squatted down and placed a dagger in his hand.
"This one is for you." She said calmly, but without question, "Take care of yourself. Let's go find your grandfather."
The dagger shone with an intimidating cold light, was engraved with array patterns, and could cut through hair instantly. It was obviously not an ordinary item.
After leaving these words, Liu Sheng flew away with Taibai Sword Immortal. Their figures were as fast as the wind and they soon disappeared into the dark night without a trace.
Only Ariel was left standing in the snow, looking down at the dagger in his hand.
The blade trembled slightly, reflecting his still young face.
His eyes turned slightly cold and he slowly tightened his grip on the handle.
……
The two quietly approached the edge of the city.
Liu Sheng held the Taibai Sword Immortal, activated [Rule: Space], and his figure penetrated into the dark and charred city wall.
Just a short step, not much consumption.
There were even more white-robed priests inside, ranging from the first to the third level, and they were converging towards the center of the city.
"Where do all these priests come from?" muttered Taibai Sword Immortal.
Liu Sheng frowned: "I just asked Sanjar remotely, and he said that the Sultan Temple has not issued any transfer orders, and there is no unusual movement."
"It seems that these people are not formally dispatched, but are gathered privately by priests from various places..."
"That's no small matter." Taibai Sword Immortal whispered, "Such a large group of priests gathered together, and they didn't follow the official order. This can only mean that they are plotting something bad."
There was a chill in Liu Sheng's eyes: "The situation in Mobei Temple is really going to change."
Aiming at the two priests walking along the city wall, Taibai Sword Immortal swung the rusty sword in his hand. The sword energy surged behind their necks and shook them lightly, knocking them both unconscious.
Then he quickly took off their white robes, threw one to Liu Sheng, and put on the other one himself.
Taibai Sword Immortal struggled to tie his belt while frowning and complaining: "Alas, I don't know who cut this dress, why is it so tight..."
Liu Sheng glanced at the white robe that was stretched extremely tight by his round belly, and couldn't help but say, "It shouldn't be a problem with the clothes, right?"
As soon as he left Sang Ye's house, Taibai Sword Immortal immediately gave up managing his body and started eating and drinking delicious food in the carriage. Soon his body swelled up like a balloon.
Taibai Sword Immortal was startled, then he coughed and patted his stomach: "You are right. From now on, stop drinking and fasting for... one hour."
【……Fine. 】
After changing his clothes, Liu Sheng smelled his body, cast a few cleansing spells on himself in disgust, then shook his sleeves in satisfaction and joined the team of priests with his head held high.
The two followed the flow of people towards the city center.
In the square, the white-robed priests stood in formation, no one spoke, and their expressions were solemn.
In the center of the square, a magnificent temple stood majestically, and above it, a completely black temple opposite to it was slowly rising.
The temples are located up and down, one bright and one dark, and are extremely mysterious and magical.
An ominous smell quietly diffused in the air.
"I wonder where those people were taken..." said Taibai Sword Immortal with a frown.
Liu Sheng's gaze fell on the inverted temple in front of him.
The familiar structure made her understand it in her mind.
"It's in there..." she whispered.
"I'm afraid... it's in the process of becoming weird."
