Chapter 138 I want you to attack me with the determination to kill me.
Before Jing Shu could finish speaking, everyone lost consciousness in an instant. At the same time, the entire palace emitted a shattering sound, the ground disappeared, and the unconscious people fell into a white light.
Everything returned to calm.
After an unknown amount of time, Ji Chen suddenly opened his eyes, looked at the white sky above, clenched his fist, and the spiritual energy in his body circulated normally, gathering in his palm.
So, they've come out?
"Ji Xiaochen!" Lu Yunqi's voice came from beneath Ji Chen, tinged with gritted teeth, "How long do you plan to stay on top of me?!"
Ji Chen's eyes widened, and he quickly got up from Lu Yunqi's body. "Haha, sorry, who knew it would fall on you."
Before entering that world, he was indeed above Lu Yunqi. It's likely that after they fainted, he fell down and landed on Lu Yunqi.
No one knows how long they stayed in that world, but Lu Yunqi's body was so numb that he had lost all feeling.
Ji Chen squatted apologetically beside Lu Yunqi and used his spiritual power to help him clear his body. Lu Yunqi managed to sit up, and his memories of that world began to return.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Yunqi had remembered everything, knowing that Jing Ran was the Immortal Venerable Hanluo, and that the Immortal Venerable Hanluo and Jing Shu in that world were a couple. The expression on Lu Yunqi's face was truly fascinating.
In the end, Lu Yunqi only said one sentence, "Brother Jing... he is truly admirable..."
Ji Chen nodded, deeply agreeing, "Indeed, in theory, the divine artifacts of that world are indestructible, but he killed them with just two arrows. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to get out so quickly."
"By the way, where is the others?" Ji Chen looked around and saw Shi Chuan, who had just woken up and was pressing his head as if sorting out his memories. On the other side, Jing Shu, who had woken up at some point, was standing there. Only Han Luo Immortal Venerable was not there.
Ji Chen sensed something was wrong, stood up and walked to Jing Shu's side, looking in the direction Jing Shu was looking, and at the same time summoned the Azure Light Cauldron.
"Xiao Qing, the secret realm has been broken, so why haven't we reached the outside yet? Also, what is that?"
The direction Jing Shu was looking was a deep abyss, bottomless and exuding a terrifying pressure. Ji Chen felt intense discomfort just standing there. How long had Jing Shu been standing there?
After the Azure Light Cauldron emerged, it obediently perched on Ji Chen's shoulder. Knowing that its master was asking on behalf of Jing Shu, it lost its usual carefree and playful demeanor.
"Because the secret realm is ending, the artifact will have to choose a master. Once the artifact recognizes its master, this place will disappear completely. And that place should be where the artifact is located. No one can enter except the person chosen by the artifact. They can only wait."
Ji Chen nodded. So, Immortal Venerable Hanluo had been chosen by the divine artifact. Divine artifacts were no good things; he had already learned that in the secret realm. However, they couldn't help Immortal Venerable Hanluo and could only wait here.
Shi Chuan and Lu Yunqi also came to Jing Shu and the other two's side, and naturally heard what Qing Guangding said.
"Junior Brother..." Shi Chuan lowered his head, a hint of dejection flashing in his eyes, "We can't help Master..."
Jing Shu, who had been silent until now, seemed to have thought of something and suddenly moved. He turned to Shi Chuan and said, "Senior Brother, I have a plan. However, I need your help."
"What method? I will definitely help!" Shi Chuan suddenly raised his head and asked urgently.
"Senior Brother," Jing Shu pointed to himself, "I want you to attack me with the determination to kill me."
Ji Chen & Lu Yunqi: "?!!"
Shi Chuan was also stunned. "Junior Brother, what are you talking about? Why would you do this?"
"Back then, when I displayed my Light Spirit Root in front of everyone, my master set up an array within my body to protect me, in which a small part of his divine consciousness was incorporated."
"Now, if I can force out the divine sense, and then bring my master's divine sense with me, maybe I can go in," Jing Shu explained.
"No!" Shi Chuan said firmly, "What if Master's divine sense comes out too late and I really hurt you? Besides, it doesn't reject Master's divine sense, but what if it rejects you and only hurts you?"
"Senior Brother, although Master told me that he suspected he had a backup plan, given Master's current situation, I can't let him face it alone, and neither can you."
"Don't worry, I tested it once before you woke up. It only knocks you away, it doesn't hurt you," Jing Shu said earnestly.
Shi Chuan wavered, but with his junior brother on one side and his master on the other, neither choice seemed right.
“And us too,” Lu Yunqi suddenly said, drawing the attention of the others.
"Fellow Daoist Shi Chuan, please make your move. If anything unexpected happens, Ji Chen and I will take the hit for Jing Shu."
Ji Chen nodded in agreement, "If all else fails, we'll take action against Jing Shu. Fellow Daoist Shi Chuan, you protect Brother Jing."
In Ji Chen's opinion, Jing Shu was able to kill divine artifacts in that world, so if he went in, he might actually be able to help Immortal Venerable Han Luo.
“I’m afraid you can’t do it.” Jing Shu shook his head upon hearing this. “It’s no use for me to take action. If you take action, Master’s divine sense might kill you. So, only the eldest brother can do it.”
Ji Chen scratched his head. "That makes sense, doesn't it?"
“Okay…” Shi Chuan said with difficulty.
Junior Brother has other people protecting him. If he fails and hurts Junior Brother, he will make up for any amount of the damage he caused Junior Brother.
However, with Junior Brother by his side, Master would be much safer. He had experienced Junior Brother's strength firsthand; it couldn't be summarized by cultivation level alone.
Jing Shu slightly curled the corners of his lips. His senior brother had always been reliable and knew how to distinguish between what was important and what was not.
Shi Chuan summoned the Wind Chaser Sword, while Lu Yunqi and Ji Chen simultaneously drew their weapons, ready to step forward and rescue Jing Shu at any moment.
Jing Shu slightly opened his arms and said to Shi Chuan with a light laugh, "Senior Brother, I'm ready."
Shi Chuan gripped his sword tightly, and when he opened his eyes again, his gaze towards Jing Shu was filled with nothing but killing intent. The tip of his sword, imbued with fierce wind spirit energy, thrust towards Jing Shu.
Just as Shi Chuan's sword pierced Jing Shu's robe, Lu Yunqi and Ji Chen stepped forward. At the critical moment, an intricate magic array pattern appeared between Jing Shu's eyebrows.
The magic circle has been activated...
