Chapter 638: Guixu - Mystery
Chapter 638: Guixu - Mystery
In the world of cultivation, the news that the ancient secret realm "Guixu" is about to be opened is like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, stirring up thousands of waves. As the source of the news, Xingyun Pavilion instantly became the focus of everyone's attention. Messengers from major sects came in an endless stream, all for the legendary "Heavenly Key" left by the first generation of twin Taoist couples. This key is not only the key to Yun Yao's restoration of her spiritual veins, but also a key to open the door to a new world, carrying countless possibilities and hopes.
Yun Yao stood in the martial arts training ground of Yunhua Sect, the breeze gently ruffled her hair, but her eyes were fixed on the distance, her heart full of thoughts about Guixu. Chu Mochen beside her seemed to be able to see through her thoughts, gently holding her hand, and said softly: "Yao'er, no matter what secrets are hidden in Guixu, we will face them together." His voice was firm and powerful, like the warm spring sun, dispelling some of the haze in Yun Yao's heart.
When they were studying the map of the secret realm of Guixu with Ye Wuhen, a surprising discovery made everyone fall into a brief silence. The coordinates of the entrance were exactly the same as the "accidental location" when Yun Yao first crossed over. A flash of surprise flashed across Ye Wuhen's eyes, and he murmured: "Perhaps, everything in this world is really predetermined. From the moment you stepped into this world, today's reunion and the unknown journey that is about to begin were destined."
Yun Yao's fingers gently slid across the familiar yet strange mark on the map, and past memories came flooding back. She thought of the hustle and bustle of the modern world, and the car accident that changed her life, and she felt mixed emotions. After everyone's discussion, they decided to set off for Guixu immediately.
Along the way, Yun Yao's mood became more and more complicated. She was looking forward to the opportunity to restore her spiritual veins that might be hidden in Guixu, but she was also a little afraid to face the projection of the modern world that she was once familiar with. Chu Mochen was always by her side, giving Yun Yao strength with his gentleness and firmness. They passed through the dense jungle, where monsters were rampant and fierce attacks came from time to time. Chu Mochen held the Xuanbing Knife, the knife flashed, and every swing brought a biting cold air, dissolving the monster's attacks one by one. Yun Yao was on the side, using the spiritual pupil technique to see through the monster's weaknesses and assist Chu Mochen in combat. The two cooperated tacitly, as if they were one.
They crossed a turbulent river with an undercurrent and a huge whirlpool that seemed to swallow everything. Yun Yao used her spiritual power to condense a solid ice road on the water surface. They walked on the ice at a very fast speed. But suddenly a giant water python jumped out of the river, opened its bloody mouth and spewed corrosive venom. Chu Mochen stood in front of Yun Yao without hesitation, swung the black ice knife horizontally, froze all the venom, and then slashed the water python with a backhand knife. The water python felt pain and dived into the water, causing a huge wave, but it failed to stop them from moving forward.
After going through untold hardships, they finally arrived at the entrance of Guixu. It was a huge vortex emitting a mysterious light. The surrounding space seemed to be distorted, and there were faint waves of strange fluctuations. Yun Yao took a deep breath, looked at Chu Mochen, and stepped into it hand in hand.
As soon as they entered Guixu, they were pulled by a powerful force, and the scene in front of them changed instantly. Yun Yao found herself in a familiar scene - it was a street in the modern world, with heavy traffic, people coming and going, and endless noise. Her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and an inexplicable sense of familiarity surged in her heart.
"Is this... my original world?" Yun Yao murmured to herself, her eyes full of shock and confusion.
However, she soon noticed something was wrong. Time here seemed to have frozen. The people around her were motionless, and the vehicles were also parked in place, like a frozen painting. The system's voice suddenly rang in her ears, no longer the cold mechanical voice of the past, but full of a mother's gentle tone: "Yao'er, Guixu is the hub connecting all the worlds. Back then, I used my last strength to send you here, hoping that you could learn to 'examine your heart' in the mortal world. Now, it's time to let you see your original world..."
The scenes switched like a movie, and Yun Yao saw the life of "modern Su Yao". It turned out that she was the reincarnation of a disciple of Yunhua Sect, and all the entanglements of fate were the subtle arrangements of the cycle of heaven. She saw Su Yao busy in the hospital, doing her best to save every life; she saw her encounter setbacks in life, but still facing them with strength and optimism. Those familiar scenes, those memories that were once thought to have been forgotten, now acted like keys, opening the door to the emotions deep in Yun Yao's heart.
Chu Mochen held Yun Yao's hand tightly, giving her silent support. He looked at everything around him that was strange yet familiar, and his heart was filled with emotion. Although this world was completely different from the cultivation world he was familiar with, he could feel the waves in Yun Yao's heart, and he was willing to accompany her to face it all, no matter what was waiting for them ahead.
As they went deeper into Guixu, the space became more and more chaotic. Sometimes they were in the high-rise buildings of a bustling city, and sometimes they came to a quiet country road. Yun Yao found that every scene here seemed to be inextricably linked to her past and present lives. In an old library, she found a long-forgotten ancient book, which recorded some ancient theories about time, space and fate. Those obscure words seemed to be telling her something at this moment.
Chu Mochen was standing aside, carefully observing the surrounding environment, trying to find clues. Suddenly, he found a faint light flickering behind the bookshelf. The two walked closer and saw that it was an ancient bronze mirror. The mirror surface of the bronze mirror exuded a mysterious halo, as if it contained endless power. Yun Yao gently touched the bronze mirror, and in an instant, pictures emerged on the mirror surface - that was the past of the first generation of twin Taoist couples of Yunhua Sect.
They saw the first generation of twin Taoists working hand in hand in the chaotic world of cultivation, exploring the mysteries of heaven. One of them followed the way of heaven and guided the living beings with a compassionate heart; the other went against heaven, trying to break the shackles and give all things more freedom. However, as time went by, the two people's ideas gradually diverged, which eventually led to the earth-shaking dispute over the Taoism. In the picture, the flames of war were raging, and the lives of the people were charred, but Yun Yao's heart was full of compassion.
"It turns out that all these disputes were foreshadowed from that time." Yun Yao sighed.
Chu Mochen gently held her shoulders and comforted her: "But they finally realized the true way of heaven. It is not black and white, but allows the existence of 'choice'. The path we are taking now is also to continue their legacy. Yao'er, don't be too sad."
Continuing forward, they encountered a series of mysterious rune barriers. These runes flashed with strange light and contained powerful forbidden power. Yun Yao tried to break them with her spiritual power, but found that these runes were like living things, constantly changing their arrangements and combinations to resist her attacks. Seeing this, Chu Mochen stood side by side with Yun Yao, and the spiritual powers of the two blended together to form a more powerful force, which blasted towards the rune barrier.
Under the impact of spiritual power, a crack finally appeared in the rune barrier. The two took the opportunity to pass through the barrier, but found themselves in a dark space. It was pitch dark here, with only a few faint stars twinkling in the distance. Yun Yao walked forward cautiously, and suddenly, their feet were empty, and they fell into a bottomless abyss.
During the fall, Yun Yao felt a little scared. But Chu Mochen hugged her tightly and whispered, "Don't be afraid, Yao'er, I'm here." Just as they were about to land, a gentle force supported them and gently placed them on the ground. Yun Yao looked around and found that this was a strange sea of flowers, which was filled with a faint fluorescent light, like a dream.
Each flower bloomed with brilliant light, and mysterious patterns flowed on the petals, as if telling an ancient story. Yun Yao approached a flower and gently touched the petals. In an instant, a powerful stream of information poured into her mind. She saw more secrets about Guixu. This place not only connects the modern world and the world of cultivation, but also hides countless channels to different planes. Each channel leads to a completely different world with its own unique rules of heaven.
"It turns out that the vastness of the universe is far beyond our imagination." Yun Yao exclaimed.
Chu Mochen was also shocked by the scene before him. He looked at the light flashing in Yun Yao's eyes, and his heart was full of pride and love. In this sea of flowers, they seemed to have forgotten the passage of time, immersed in the ocean of knowledge, and constantly explored the mysteries of Guixu.
However, the danger was not far away. A group of strange insects suddenly emerged from the sea of flowers. These insects exuded black mist and were highly corrosive. They swarmed towards Yun Yao and Chu Mochen, densely packed and frightening. Yun Yao quickly summoned the Jie Huo Sword, and a raging fire ignited on the sword. She waved the sword and burned the approaching insects one by one. Chu Mochen used the Xuan Bing Knife to cut out ice edges, which were like sharp blades, tearing a hole in the insect encirclement.
The two stood back to back and started a fierce battle with the insect swarm. Wherever Yun Yao's Jie Huo Sword went, flames raged and insects turned into ashes; Chu Mochen's Xuan Bing Dao was cold and froze a large number of insects. But the insects kept pouring in, and they gradually felt a little tired. At the critical moment, Yun Yao suddenly remembered the power contained in the flowers in the sea of flowers. She guided her spiritual power and gathered the light of the flowers into a protective light curtain, temporarily blocking the insects' attack.
Taking advantage of this gap, they searched for an exit in the sea of flowers. Finally, at the end of the sea of flowers, they found a portal emitting golden light. The top of the door was engraved with complex runes, which were different from the runes they had seen before. These runes exuded an ancient and majestic atmosphere.
"This should be the passage leading to the core of Guixu." Yun Yao judged.
Without any hesitation, the two of them stepped into the portal hand in hand. With a flash of light, they disappeared from the spot, leaving behind only a sea of flowers disturbed by the battle and the gradually dissipating remains of insects, as if telling of their thrilling adventure. And what they are about to face is the more mysterious challenge of the core of Guixu, as well as the final inheritance left by the first generation of twin Taoist couples.
