Chapter 288 July th, the road to immortality opens The fourth day of Lin didn't come back. The fifth day of July. Song Lin didn't come back. July 6th...Song Lin still hasn't come back. In front of Linxian Cliff. Chen Xiaohua finally fell into complete despair. He finally found a backer and had a chance to stand out in his ordinary life. But a sudden shipwreck shattered all his hopes. Where should I go in my next life? The night is deep. There was no moon or light above the sea and sky, it was pitch black, just like Chen Xiaohua's mood at the moment.
"There are still seven hours left." Chen Chaonan's voice sounded. In seven hours it would be daybreak. At dawn, the road to immortality will be opened. Everyone will leave at that time. If Song Lin doesn't come back, everything will be too late! At this moment. Everyone on Linxian Cliff was excited and none of them wanted to sleep. "I'm leaving tomorrow. I hope I can be chosen by Xianya." "Even if I can't become a true disciple, it's fine to be a disciple." “Hahaha, brother, I barely made it into the top ten of Nantong Prefecture, but I’m afraid I’m not as blessed as you brothers, so I’ll just be an outer sect disciple.” "Join the outer sect? It's better to join other immortal sects. Although all the immortal sects in Donglin Land are not as good as Donglin Immortal Cliff, joining them at least gives you a high status, and you can start by entering the sect and receiving the true teachings." “It is better to be the tail of a phoenix than the head of a chicken.” "Who are you calling a chicken?" "Why? You want to show me how to do it?" “Hahaha, don’t be angry, brothers. At least we still have a choice, unlike someone who has obtained the fate of becoming an immortal but has no blessing to enjoy it…” The person who spoke looked towards Chen Xiaohua intentionally or unintentionally. The whole room burst into laughter. The road to immortality is about to open, but the crazy swordsman has not shown up yet, so he will definitely not come back. They naturally had no scruples and laughed wantonly. If Chen Chaonan hadn't been there, Chen Xiaohua would have been ridiculed again. at this time.
The nine Qingyun seeds from Dongyang Prefecture, on the contrary, looked somewhat unhappy. After all, Zhou Yuan was from their Dongyang Prefecture. Without this man, the few people standing in the crowd felt ashamed. "This guy has been pretending for so long, but now he has to do something weird!" "Deserved it." "It can only be said that he is not so blessed." "A madman who has reached the Immortal Cliff will be despised by others. Do you think there is really an Immortal who would accept such a person as his disciple?" "Say less." "Just say it, Zhou Yuan deserves it for making us be laughed at!" this moment. The nine people who were originally of the same blood were divided into several camps due to differences in language. "Crazy Swordsman, Zhou Yuan?" On the other side of Linxian Cliff, Tan Tai Xuanyin withdrew his gaze. At this time, she was neither Song Xiangyu nor Tantai Xuanyin. The connection between the two identities might have been leaked in Jianzhai. Just to be on the safe side. She went to Youxuan Mansion and took part in the Qingyun competition under the pseudonym 'Xie Muxue'. Like the crazy swordsman Zhou Yuan, she emerged as a dark horse and entered the top ten with her outstanding talent. "Sister Mu Xue, would you like some water?" A soft female voice sounded beside me. "I'm not thirsty, thank you." Tan Tai Xuan Yin shook her head slightly. He glanced at Nalan Xianxian beside him, and his eyes flashed. Is this the speed of cultivation for a Red Dust Immortal? In just a few months, he had already reached the Divine Mansion Realm, and even managed to make it into the top ten of the Youxuan Mansion's Blue Cloud Ranking. But hasn't she been looking for Yang Qingyuan? Why... Thinking of that name, Tan Tai Xuan Yin couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart. Mixed feelings. Could it be that he...had also come to Cangzhou and was also here on Linxian Cliff? Or...had he gone to fulfill his engagement? "Thanks to your care during this period, Xianxian has not been cheated by anyone." Nalan Xianxian smiled and expressed her gratitude. "Ah." Tan Tai Xuan Yin nodded slightly, her temperament exuding a coldness that kept people at a distance. Nalan Xianxian didn't care at all, as if she had regarded her as her only support.
"Sister Mu Xue, when we get to the mountain, we sisters will unite as one, live in harmony, and blossom together..." Tan Tai Xuan Yin's pretty face was tense and she remained silent. What does sisterhood mean? If she meets Yang Qingyuan in the future, this coquettish woman who is blinded by love, she would not even use the surname Xie if she hesitated for a moment. Time passes minute by minute. Morning light breaks in the eastern sky. A ray of orange-red light shines between the sea and the sky, dyeing the sea water, cliffs, mudflats... everything red. Dang~~ The melodious bell sounds echoed from the sky to the heaven and earth. There was a sudden silence on Linxian Cliff. Countless people raised their heads and looked at the sky with hope. Suddenly, a long rainbow streaked across the sky, like a fairyland running through heaven and earth, connecting the mountains and the sea. "Little flower." Chen Chaonan hesitated for a while. Finally he said, "Are you willing to follow me into the mountains to practice?" "what?" Chen Xiaohua turned her head, her dull, lost eyes flashing with a hint of surprise. "Although if you follow me, you can only start as a menial servant, at least you can enter the mountains and live with the immortals. But I am only an inner disciple, and my future prospects are at most a small golden body, so you have to think carefully." Chen Chaonan said with a smile. "The angel..." Chen Xiaohua's face was filled with emotion. This was a great blessing, a gift and mercy from Chen Chaonan to him. The road to immortality is difficult, and it is difficult to reach the sky. There were only 360 people who had the chance to enter the immortal gate on this trip, but they attracted countless people from all over Cangzhou to chase after them. Not for anything else, just for getting started. Even as a servant, one can enter the Donglinxian Cliff and take the shortcut to immortality. If there is an opportunity in the future, you may be able to achieve immortality, become an immortal, and achieve an enviable path. therefore. Many children of noble families are willing to give up their dignity and serve as slaves to the heroes on the Qingyun List, just for a chance. An opportunity to go into the mountains to seek immortality.
It's also a big gamble. Many people had already started placing bets before the Qingyun Competition began. Outer disciples are not qualified to have servants. There is one quota for the disciple. True disciples can bring two dependents with them. Chen Chaonan gave him this opportunity, and Chen Xiaohua was very clear about the significance of it. "Have you thought about it?" Chen Nanchao asked with a smile. he knows. Chen Xiaohua must have been overwhelmed by joy at this moment. Who would refuse such an opportunity? "I……" But unexpectedly, a look of hesitation appeared on Chen Xiaohua's face. "What, you don't want to go?" The smile on Chen Chaonan's face faded little by little. He was not angry, but surprised. Faced with such an opportunity, why did Chen Xiaohua hesitate? "I……" Dang~~ The second bell rang. Chen Xiaohua faced the sea, gazing at the rising sun in the distance. Take a deep breath. The tone was slow but firm: "Fairy Envoy, I want to wait for him." I want to wait for him! Chen Chaoyang's heart was shocked, and his eyes were dazed for a moment. How deep must the trust be to make a person so determined as to give up the chance to ascend directly to immortality? "Have you really decided?" Chen Chaonan asked. "I made a decision." Chen Xiaohua looked at the vast ocean with a determined gaze and said, "No matter what, I will definitely be here and wait for him to come back!" Hua Ye is a trustworthy man.
It was Song Lin who gave him the opportunity and hope in life. Although he was afraid of death and losing what might be the only chance in his life, he did not want to break his promise even more. Because he believed in him. Because he is the demon sword——Song Lin! From the first time the two met at the Yulan Market, he watched him struggle all the way, quickly rise from a humble abandoned child, and eventually reach the top of the nine springs, dominating a generation. Chen Xiaohua then knew that there was nothing in this world that could stump him! He didn't believe that such a person would die in a shipwreck. Just as he knew that Song Lin would most likely confront the Song clan and King Cangzhou in the future, he also believed that he would definitely not lose. "Forget it, it's fate, it can't be forced." Chen Chaonan sighed deeply. Then he flew up and stepped onto the long rainbow that spanned the sky and the earth. Even if Song Lin was lucky enough not to die, he was destined to miss this immortal gate selection and could only wait for the next one. Five years. How many five-year periods do we have in our life? "Hahaha, let's go!" "Hurry up, the road to immortality will appear in this world in just a moment. If you miss this opportunity, you will never find it again in your lifetime!" "Dad, Mom, I'm leaving!" "Xiuniang, wait for me at the foot of the mountain." One figure after another disappeared into the sky on the rainbow. At Linxian Cliff, some people are crying, some are laughing, some are envious and jealous, some are lost and confused...all kinds of life are displayed in it. Chen Xiaohua sat silently in front of the cliff. He did not look back to see the joys and sorrows of this world. I was afraid that I would not be able to control myself and would regret making this impulsive decision. Dang~~ The third bell rang throughout the heaven and earth, and the long rainbow that penetrated the sky suddenly retracted. In a trance. Everyone seemed to see a magnificent and vast fairyland scene at the end of the rainbow bridge. There were peaks and ridges, cliffs as high as the abyss, fairies flying swords across the sky and earth, and strange beasts catching the wind and rain... The bizarre scene was like a mirage. At last. Everything suddenly turned into ruins. The cliff collapsed, the mountain toppled, the sword broke, people died... Three hundred and fifty-nine figures on the Rainbow Bridge fell into the ancient ruins one after another. "This is?"
"That is the place where the Donglin Dan Pinhui event is held, and it is called - Xianxu." “Standing shoulder to shoulder with the ancients, competing with the present, writing down the immortal ruins, leaving your name in history… this is the Donglin Dan Pin Ceremony!” "Why are you here?" "It is said that seven thousand years ago, Donglinxian Cliff almost encountered a catastrophic disaster. No one knows the details. And that piece of ruins is the ancient battlefield of that year." The crowd gradually dispersed. After a while, there was no one on Linxian Cliff. There is only a lonely figure, sitting quietly in an unattended corner, gazing at the sea. Seven thousand years have passed, and the path to immortality is no longer as difficult as ascending to heaven. No one cared about this piece of bluestone anymore. But now it seems to have become a true portrayal of Chen Xiaohua and Song Lin. July 7th has arrived, but Song Lin still failed to return as promised. Their path to immortality...is broken. July thirteenth. July 18th. July 29th. August…… Chen Xiaohua slowly raised her head, looking haggard, and stared at the setting sun in the sky. Her confused eyes revealed complete despair. It's been two months. He finally had to face the result that he least wanted to face. Song Lin - may never come back. He died in that shipwreck and will never come back! "That's all." Chen Xiaohua slowly stood up and staggered down the cliff. "Just think of it as a dream. Sometimes it will happen in a dream, but sometimes it won't happen in a dream... don't force it." "Master." "Xiaohua, I have to say goodbye to you." He turned his back to the sea and waved. Then, without looking back, he walked back the way he came.
"Clee——" A long cry came from the distant sky. A black dot came from far away and flew towards Linxian Cliff at a rapid speed. Chen Xiaohua paused. Then he shook his head and laughed heartily. "Hahahaha, what a foolish dream. It's already been two months, why bother to hold on to the last glimmer of hope..." "Gone, gone." "The road of life is like a beautiful dream..." He walked and jumped, and seemed to be going crazy. Two months of waiting. Two months of sitting still. He was already at the end of his rope, having used up the last bit of his strength and energy. The world before his eyes was dim and seemed to be gradually darkening. His body fell forward and rolled down the cliff. 'It's over' Chen Xiaohua’s eyes went dark and she was ready to close her eyes and wait for death. But at this moment. My body suddenly felt lighter, as if wrapped in a cloud. A familiar voice sounded in my ears, "Hua, what are you doing?" (End of this chapter)
