Chapter 571 Entering the Heavenly Gate
A Foundation Establishment cultivator in the middle of the crowd clenched his fist in anger and whispered to the person next to him, "Why don't we all self-destruct? We'd rather die than let these bastards get away with this!"
"Wait a minute, I see those children have an extraordinary bearing."
Moreover, he remained unusually calm throughout, not at all like someone going to their death.
Perhaps they have some kind of life-saving item given to them by their elders?
"Then they can go in by themselves, why bother bringing us along?"
"Perhaps it's because we were willing to cover their escape earlier. In any case, don't give up until the very last moment!"
"Tch! What can a few kids do? Even if they have treasures, they can't control them with their cultivation level, can they?"
"What if?"
"Fine, we'll do as you say!" The man who had tried to stand up and incite everyone to self-destruct lowered his head and said no more.
Di Tianhuang looked at the Golden Core cultivators who were eagerly hoping they would go to their deaths, his face expressionless, but inwardly he was full of sneers.
Ha! As expected, you only know the pain when the knife falls on your own body.
Xiao Jukeng carefully observed people's expressions.
Thinking that more than half of the people would not want the host to die, she suggested that the host and everyone else use the true fire of the sun within Da Bai's body to find a way to break into the Heavenly Gate together.
After all, they were the ones who went in, but nearly a thousand others would still be chosen to die.
The low-level cultivators who can come to the secret realm are basically the chosen ones from all realms. Saving them may well be accumulating merit.
And seeing so many people going to their deaths is truly heartbreaking.
But no one did; not a single person showed any pity.
Everyone's conscience was blinded by the aura of the imperial artifact released from inside the gate.
In this situation, no matter how much you say, everyone will assume that the host is trying to escape the sacrifice.
The method she mentioned earlier is the safest.
Hmph, those who kill will be killed in return!
Thugs don't deserve sympathy; otherwise, bringing them in would just be asking for trouble.
Humans can never resist greed.
Although there may not be many good people among the four hundred people they want to save, they are willing to let a few children go, rather than making others suffer if they themselves cannot.
Just for this reason, it's only right to lend them a hand; it's just something that can be done easily anyway.
Besides, she didn't know if there really was a way out behind the barrier.
It's better than staying and being 100% sure to die.
The sarcastic young man shouted again, "Weren't we going in together? Why aren't we going in yet?"
Mu Zhen felt his eyes were dirty just looking at him.
[Damn, I hope it's your turn to go next!] Chong Longyuan winked.
Long Yuan took out the Dragon Roar Spear and threw it forward.
'hold head high!'
After a soul-stirring dragon roar, the iron spear transformed into a golden dragon and landed in front of everyone.
As Little Giant Pit said, no one on the field cared, all thinking it was just a low-level weapon inlaid with a part of the golden dragon's body.
How powerful a magical artifact can someone at the Qi Refining stage control?
Look at their attire; it's all made of precious artifacts, not a single spiritual weapon. They're not worth the covetous eyes of those at the Golden Core stage.
The little golden dragon raised its head high and snorted at those who looked down on it.
Hmph! Poverty limits your imagination!
Liu Duandao was good at reading people's expressions. In fact, he was the oldest person on the field, after all, he was an old man who had fallen from the Nascent Soul stage.
The reason they look young is simply due to the effect of a youth-preserving elixir; in reality, their hearts have already undergone profound changes, witnessing the vicissitudes of life.
Whether I live or die, I no longer care.
If it weren't for Yi Qinglin insisting that he become his disciple, pestering him relentlessly, and showing him great care, he would have already given in to everyone's wishes and died in a corner.
But he didn't want Yi Qinglin to die, so he whispered, "Stay close to me for a while."
"Hehe, okay, Uncle Liu, you promised me that if I can go back this time, you will take me as your apprentice."
Liu Duandao ignored him. If his cultivation level hadn't plummeted, he would indeed have been qualified to be this child's master.
"With your cultivation level, finding a master at the Nascent Soul stage wouldn't be difficult for you, fellow villager."
"Why bother asking someone at the Foundation Establishment stage to be my master?" Mu Zhen muttered to himself as he boarded the dragon's back with the others.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jukeng glanced at Liu Duandao and said without much interest, "His soul and cultivation are extremely mismatched, and his body shows no signs of possession."
Judging from his lifeless and dejected appearance, his cultivation was probably forcibly abolished.
Then he started cultivating again from the Qi Refining stage.
[No wonder, although his cultivation level isn't high, his knowledge and experience in cultivation are genuine. Having such a master isn't bad!]
Hundreds of people were herded onto the dragon's back like livestock to be sent to the slaughterhouse.
Knowing they had no hope of survival, many women began to sob uncontrollably.
On one side was the despair of hopeless life, and on the other was the fervent excitement of the crowd who longed to obtain the treasure.
How tragic it is that we are all human beings.
Huangfu Zique took Da Bai in his arms, gave Mu Zhen and Di Tianhuang a deep look, and then, like a warrior about to die for a righteous cause, strode up to the dragon's head.
Don't worry! Even if I die from exhaustion of my spiritual energy, I will fight tooth and nail to save you all!
We've died countless times on the road to unity, so there's really nothing to be afraid of.
As for wishes that haven't been fulfilled yet, such as getting someone to hold a wedding, if it really comes to death, letting go is the best way to avoid both sides making mistakes.
I still remember when I was on the cruise ship, after hearing Mu Yunya's story about her first love, I even laughed at her for being cowardly.
Once he falls in love, he will never let her leave, no matter what.
Life and death can only belong to him.
Huangfu Zique now realizes how naive his thoughts were back then.
When you truly fall in love with someone, it's not about trying to possess them, but about hoping they live a happy and fulfilling life.
Even if she never sees herself again in her life after that!
In the blink of an eye, the dragon's back was crowded with people, some sitting and some standing. There was no light in anyone's eyes, and they all seemed to be giving up.
As soon as the golden dragon rose, all the Golden Core cultivators on the field simultaneously drew their swords and faced each other.
Hundreds of flying boats surrounded the area around the Heavenly Fire Gate from all sides, completely blocking it.
Little Golden Dragon did want to escape, but seeing this, he immediately gave up on this unrealistic idea.
Even at its current speed, I'm afraid it would be difficult for Big White to break through the encirclement.
There are nearly 20,000 Golden Core cultivators.
He took a step back, and after Huangfu Zique and Da Bai released their spiritual energy shields to cover his entire body, he charged towards the red barrier in one go.
At the same time, Emperor Tianhuang suddenly threw out the Emperor Kunqin, and the body of the giant fish immediately enveloped the entire golden dragon.
This action silenced the girls who had been screaming from the intense heat.
They all stared in astonishment at the unusually large white whale.
Wait, whales don't seem to have horns on their heads, do they?
A scene that shocked all the Golden Core cultivators unfolded: the golden dragon's tail disappeared into the barrier, but not a single skeleton fell out.
But... the barrier still exists!
