Chapter 156 Witnessing the Ending
Chapter 156 Witnessing the Ending
Luofu, Linyuan Realm.
Amidst the devastation and ruins.
Jing Yuan, Dan Feng, and Ying Xing stared blankly as Lu Li turned into specks of light and vanished in Jing Liu's arms.
Lu Li... is dead.
Jingyuan collapsed to his knees, utterly exhausted.
They have lost another companion...
"How could this happen..." Danfeng muttered to himself, his face ashen.
Ying Xing stared intently at the scattered rain of light and the mirror stream standing blankly where Lu Li had vanished, his facial muscles contorted with extreme pain.
It was them... no, it was him.
He caused all of this.
They not only defiled Bai Heng's death, but also forced Jing Liu to kill the "resurrected" Bai Heng, thus falling into demonic possession.
Therefore, in order to awaken Mirror Flow, Lu Li had no choice but to...
It's all...their fault.
The moment I realized it.
Yingxing's consciousness instantly collapsed.
"ah--!!!"
A heart-wrenching scream rang out.
Yingxing's body suddenly arched and began to convulse violently.
A nauseating stench of flesh and blood erupted from his body.
It looked as if countless worms were wriggling under his skin, his veins were bulging, and his muscles were contorted.
In the instant his consciousness collapsed, Yingxing was finally powerless to resist the erosion of the abundant power within his body and the fleeting remnants of his consciousness.
"Yingxing!"
The sudden turn of events jolted Jing Yuan awake: "Danfeng! What happened to Yingxing?!"
"This is... the power of abundance... a fleeting curse of flesh and blood."
"A fleeting curse?"
Jing Yuan was stunned for a moment.
What does this have to do with fleeting moments?
Danfeng dared not look Jingyuan in the eye, and said in a daze, "We... used the remains of Shuhu as the medium for the ritual."
"And when that evil dragon attacked Yingxing, its remaining resentment suddenly transformed into a curse that corroded Yingxing's body..."
"What?!" Jing Yuan was shocked.
"You actually used 'in an instant'...!"
Seeing Yingxing struggling in pain on the ground, Jingyuan pointed at Danfeng, his hands trembling with anger.
But he also knew that now was not the time to pursue such matters.
Because Yingxing's body is undergoing a terrifying transformation.
His flesh and blood were constantly multiplying, tearing apart, and then healing at an even faster rate.
His vitality was expanding infinitely in a bizarre and insane way.
He achieved "immortality".
A kind of... immortality where one cannot die.
"Kill...kill me..."
Ying Xing managed to squeeze out a few words from deep in his throat, his consciousness being consumed by endless pain and madness.
Those eyes, once brimming with pride and clear brightness, are now nothing but a bloodthirsty crimson.
"—Kill me!"
……
On the other side of the ruins, the rain of light has dissipated.
Jingliu, clutching Lu Li's black sword, knelt blankly on the ruins.
Lu Li is dead...
The man who always wore a lazy smile disappeared completely from her life.
She could clearly feel that Lu Li had forcibly suppressed her demonic body with a seal, restoring her clarity of mind.
But it was precisely because she regained her clarity of mind that she suffered even more.
She remembered everything, and understood everything.
He understood Lu Li's good intentions.
He also realized what unforgivable sins he had committed.
Regret gnawed at her heart like a venomous snake.
She longed to follow that man, but... she couldn't.
Because she is still alive.
She wants to live to atone for her sins.
Go see this world on behalf of that man, on behalf of those who died... the world they protected with their lives.
Go and fulfill Lu Li's last request to her.
And after that...
Jingliu slowly raised his head to look at the sky, his cold gaze seemingly piercing through the universe to look at something.
Lu Li reminded her that her sword was meant to be wielded to protect others.
But now... none of the people she wanted to protect are left.
Her sword will never be wielded for protection again.
She would only wield the weapon to avenge the culprit who caused all of this and took everything from her.
No matter how difficult, no matter how much time it takes.
Even if it disrupts the galaxy and exhausts countless lifetimes.
She will definitely bring all of this to a complete end.
Cut off the source of all evil!
However, she will no longer be devoured by the demonic forces.
because……
Jingliu slowly placed his hand on his heart, a rare soft light appearing in his cool eyes.
This seal is the only thing Lu Li left for her, besides the black knife and his memories.
No matter what happens.
She will not let it disappear.
But before leaving...
Jingliu slowly rose, clutching the black sword, and stared expressionlessly at the shattered remains on the ground.
She still has things to do.
……
at the same time.
The audience outside the canopy were stunned to see Ying Xing in pain on the screen.
[No... what's wrong with Yingxing?]
[Ying Xing...has he mutated? Or has he undergone a mutation?]
Didn't you hear what Danfeng just said? This is a sudden curse.
Immortality...? Eternal torment...
[Sigh, Bai Heng is dead, Lu Li is dead, even Ying Xing is dead... It's so tragic, so incredibly tragic...]
[Waaaaah, my spirited Wu Rao, why did it turn out like this...]
The audience's emotions were like a rollercoaster ride, going up and down, leaving only endless sighs and sadness in the end.
They witnessed firsthand how a group of spirited young heroes were gradually driven to destruction by the cruel twists of fate.
Bai Heng's sacrifice, Dan Feng's obsession, Ying Xing's madness, Jing Liu's depravity, and Jing Yuan's helplessness.
And Lu Li, in order to save everyone, used his own life to bring a... tragic end to this turmoil caused by the obsession and sorrow of the "Five Heroes of the Clouds".
It all felt like a meticulously crafted drama, full of absurdity and tragedy.
But everyone knows it.
This is a true story that happened.
And they... are about to witness their final fate.
