Chapter 438 Tragic
Chapter 438 Tragic
"The curse has appeared! In order to fight against the heavenly calamity, the patriarch has no extra energy to suppress the weirdness and ominousness, allowing it to take the opportunity to invade the soul!" An exclamation rang out.
Apart from Gu Chi, the bystander, the first person in the tribe to discover the abnormality was an old man. He screamed in shock and anger, while others were still immersed in joy and excitement.
The old man joined forces with several of the most powerful elders in the tribe to help the man in the sky.
"Don't worry about me... lead the tribe... and retreat quickly!"
The man's brow had cracked, and a strange black gas was seeping out from it, and his body was rapidly disintegrating.
Several old men ignored the advice and attacked with all their might, sending out a ray of divine light that shot up into the sky and infused it into the body of the heroic man, trying to help him suppress the ominous curse.
However, they overestimated themselves. The man was only one step away from becoming a saint, and the curse he endured was so terrible that it was unimaginable. The help from a few of them was just a drop in the bucket, and they could not suppress it at all.
What made people even more desperate was that the heavenly thunder tribulation had not completely subsided. When the last ray of lightning struck down, the man who was strangely eroded was no longer able to resist.
"boom!"
His body was shattered into pieces and turned into a bloody mist, while his soul was also corroded by the ominous curse and was doomed to perish.
He finally let out a long roar, and tried his best to send all his energy and spirit towards the sky, erasing the calamity clouds that had not yet completely dissipated above the nine heavens, so that they could not threaten the people in the tribe below.
Unfortunately, his strength was only one step away from reaching the realm of ancient saints. At the last moment of his life, the terrifying power of the moon still surged down upon him.
"Go!" An old man in the tribe shouted at the top of his lungs, but he was unable to stop this sudden disaster.
In just a moment, this small world was frozen and everything was extinguished!
"I'm... sorry..." At the last moment, the man was heartbroken. He looked up at the sky, his grief, anger, and unwillingness turning into a roar: "Heaven is so unfair!"
He gave everything he had just to lead his people back to their homeland, but in the end, he led his people to destruction with his own hands. How absurd is such an ending?
The power of Taiyin, also known as the power of Jidao, is close to the origin of "Tao". He was able to get started with ice and snow, and then comprehend the Tao of Taiyin. His talent can be imagined. If given more time, it is not impossible for him to reach the realm of a saint.
A long time passed and Gu Chi did not move, as if petrified. At this time, the altar had become quiet, and no images were reflected anymore. It fell into complete silence.
With a final sigh, she put away the jade knife. After knowing the cause of the disaster here, she felt a little heavy-hearted.
She recalled the scene she had just seen and the words she had heard, and whispered, "Strange and ominous, a curse, leading the tribe back to their homeland..."
She had previously speculated that the entire Kunlun Ruins might be a prison, and those so-called indigenous people were prisoners imprisoned here forever. The reason why they could not leave their tribes and walk freely in various small worlds was because they all had their own cages.
Now it seems that her speculation is very likely to be the truth.
It is hard to imagine that a powerful person who has the potential to become a saint would fail in the end because of an ominous curse. What kind of terrifying and evil power must that be?
Gu Chi thought again of the abyss guarded by the ancient sage in the ancient bronze temple. Under that abyss, there was also unimaginable weirdness and ominousness.
Did the curse originate from there?
Gu Chi asked Murong Zhixiu, "Since outsiders like us can choose to stay and live in Kunlun Ruins, can the natives here also leave with us?"
"In the past, when Kunlun Ruins was about to close, some indigenous people took the opportunity to follow outsiders out of Qionghua Tianmen Que, but they all died inexplicably in the end. At that time, high-level figures from various transcendent sects personally checked their bodies and found that these indigenous people were cursed. As long as they left Kunlun Ruins, the curse would immediately break out and they would not be able to survive in the outside world for long." Murong Zhixiu said.
"There is such a thing." Gu Chi frowned.
"The so-called curse is invisible and intangible. It will be planted in everyone's body without their knowledge, and will continue to deepen over the years, or gradually deepen as people's realms of cultivation improve. Therefore, once they reach the Nascent Soul stage or above, they will be in danger. They will go crazy or lose their minds due to the erosion of the curse."
Murong Zhixiu speculated so.
As for these outsiders, if they leave before the Kunlun Ruins secret realm is closed, the curse will slowly be erased because it is not too deep. However, if they choose to stay in Kunlun Ruins, they will end up like the indigenous people.
Gu Chi was shocked. The patriarch of this tribe in the past, the heroic man who fought against the heavenly calamity, must have surpassed the realm of the Lord-level strongman, but he suppressed the curse on his body and kept breaking through. He might be just one step away from the realm of a saint. It can be seen how talented he is.
Unfortunately, he tried to go against the will of heaven, wanting to break through the seal, dissolve the ominous curse, and lead his people out of the cage. However, when he was fighting against the heavenly thunder, the curse took the opportunity to invade his spiritual soul, and he ultimately failed. The entire tribe was destroyed in an instant.
"What a pity, respectable!" Gu Chi sighed.
Suddenly, her heart moved, and she remembered the scene she had just seen. When the world was desolate and everything was frozen, something fell from the sky and smashed into the depths of the snow. It was the man's thing!
"If you sense it carefully, it's most likely that person's natal warrior!" Murong Zhixiu showed excitement.
"This small world is so vast that even my spiritual sense cannot cover it." Gu Chi said.
She led the big black dog straight into the depths of the mountains and said, "Old Black and I are going into seclusion. You don't have much to do anyway, so just explore on your own."
"I can't fly, and I'm alone. What can I find?" Murong Zhixiu muttered with a depressed look on his face.
Gu Chi and the big black dog came to the deepest part of the mountains, each sat cross-legged on a snowy peak and began to practice.
She reviewed all the methods and secret skills she had mastered, and gained a unique understanding. She entered into a mysterious state, with an ethereal Taoist charm.
In the distance, the big black dog also quickly entered a mysterious state of enlightenment. A huge black sun appeared behind it, covering it.
On the other side, Murong Zhixiu was wandering alone within a radius of thousands of miles, looking for usable ancient relics.
