"If you don't go in and take a look, I have deep doubts in my heart, and my heavenly law has no warning about the inside, so it should be safe." Xu Qing stared at the captain.

After a while, the captain let out a long sigh.

"Let's go together!"

"Elder brother, the power there is restraining you. Although it is dissipating now, it still has a considerable impact on you. Besides, if we are together, I can't get in."

After a few words of persuasion from Xu Qing, the captain reluctantly agreed, so Xu Qing took a deep breath and her body suddenly merged into the severed hand.

There is a restriction there and it is impossible to enter normally, so the way Xu Qing thought of was to integrate himself into the severed hand and let the captain outside to throw the severed hand in.

In this way, Xu Qing is in Duan's hand, which means he has entered.

If that area would not dissipate and decay, Xu Qing would wait for a safer time to enter, but now it was too late, and the doubts in his heart were deep.

Because that figure is the Supreme Immortal Zixuan who should never appear here.

Seeing Xu Qing merge into the severed hand, the captain gritted his teeth, raised his hands to grab it, swung it with all his strength, and threw it directly towards the dissipated flesh and blood city wall.

In an instant, the severed hand roared, drew an arc, and headed straight ahead.

The moment he entered the flesh-and-blood city wall, the restrictions here erupted again, sweeping through several times. However, the severed hand itself was extremely strong. Although the skin was torn and the bones were exposed in some places, it was still intact after all. It fell into the yard, quickly

heal.

Soon, the palm of the severed hand opened wide, and Xu Qing walked out.

Gaze around.

At this moment, among the nine phoenix palaces in the area that were dissipating and decaying, the one in the middle suddenly emitted purple light.

At the same time, a similar light emanated from Xu Qing's storage bag, and then a jade slip flew out on its own and floated in front of Xu Qing.

This jade slip was given to Xu Qing by Zixuan before she left, and it contains her power of protection.

After appearing at this moment, the light was bright, reflecting the light of the palace in the middle.

At the same time, a vague figure appeared in the purple light spreading in the palace, floating in the air, staring into the distance.

Xu Qing's heart was filled with waves.

That figure is none other than Zi Xuan!

But now in this area, looking at it from a close distance, there are still some differences between the other party and the Zixuan in Xu Qing's memory, not in appearance, but in temperament.

It seems that the figure in front of me is colder, as if there is not much emotion contained in it.

Xu Qing was silent, and after a long time, he stepped forward.

As he approached, all the restrictions here seemed to give way to him, allowing Xu Qing to successfully walk to the center of Fengniao Palace. Standing there, he took a deep breath, raised his hand and pushed away the palace that had never been seen in these endless years.

The opened palace door.

The door opened silently, and a dark hall came into Xu Qing's eyes.

There are no lights in the hall, and everything is dim. Even if the dim light from outside shines through the open door, it cannot dispel the darkness in the hall.

After Xu Qing stood there for a while, he got used to the darkness here and saw the environment of the hall.

The entire hall was empty, without any seats. There was only a statue standing in the middle, and the surroundings were empty, revealing endless silence.

As you can imagine, when the door of the main hall is closed, this place is no different from a prison.

Only that statue stands forever.

This statue is of a woman, she is not Zixuan.

But her appearance is also beautiful and graceful. She seems to have aged a bit and has not deliberately changed her aging, so you can see some fishtail-like wrinkles in the corners of her eyes.

His smiling expression contains gentleness, and his eyes, as if made of gemstones, exude compassion, making people instinctively feel comfortable after looking at him.

In his hand, he held a lamp and placed it in his arms, like the most precious treasure.

This lamp is very special. It is made of purple stone and looks like a blooming redbud flower. There is also a purple phoenix perched on it, with its wings spread out, lifelike.

The moment he saw this lamp, Xu Qing's breathing quickened slightly.

This is a life lamp, or to be precise, it is a lamp sculpture based on the life lamp.

Xu Qing had never seen it before, but he felt familiar in his heart. The source of that familiarity came from the dream that Master Zixuan once told him.

"I often have a dream, for many years... In the dream, there is a dark world with a light."

"It is extinguished, there is no fire, it cannot be touched or touched. It seems very far away and very close at the same time."

"But I imagined it would look like a blooming redbud with a purple phoenix perched on it, its wings spread out as if it were in full bloom."

"This light has always appeared in my dreams, and every time it was extinguished. Every time, there was no light in that world."

Xu Qing looked a little dazed.

In the past, he thought this was just a dream mentioned by the Immortal Zixuan, until he saw Zixuan's figure outside, and until now, he saw this lamp sculpture.

Xu Qing didn't know where the real lamp of life was. It might be in the Holy Land, or it might have disappeared over the years.

"Zixuan, why did you dream about this lamp, and why did her figure appear in the purple light outside..."

"What kind of cause and effect exists between her and this lamp..."

While Xu Qing was murmuring in her heart, in the dark hall, Zixuan's figure appeared silently next to the statue. She stared at the statue with admiration and bitterness in her eyes.

Then he turned his head and looked at Xu Qing. There were some waves in his cold eyes, and he opened his mouth as if to say something.

Xu Qing couldn't hear it. He only saw Zixuan's expression change after he finished speaking, showing some sadness, and kept retreating, while a vague figure came from behind Xu Qing, entered the hall, and penetrated

his body.

This scene shocked Xu Qing. He turned around suddenly and quickly turned to look at the figure that had penetrated from him to the front.

It was a tall young man, wearing the imperial robe of a four-clawed golden dragon and a nine-bead imperial crown. There was no aura coming out, but at a glance, it was as if he saw the strong power of heaven.

He turned his back to Xu Qing and stood in front of Zixuan, not knowing what he said.

Zixuan cried and looked up at the outside world, her eyes full of nostalgia and sadness. Through the pupils of her eyes, Xu Qing vaguely saw that what was reflected in them was the collapsed sky and a huge

The broken face is coming from the sky.

This scene made Xu Qing immediately realize that what he saw now was not real.

It’s more like a photo of the past scene!

Just like before, Zixuan seemed to be looking at himself, but in fact, he was looking in the direction where he was.

At this moment, in Xu Qing's eyes, Zixuan kept shaking his head and opening his mouth as if to reprimand, but from the beginning to the end, the figure in the royal robe was silent, but just stretched out his hand, as if asking Zixuan to leave here with him.

.

Zixuan's eyes showed determination and he shook his head again.

The young man in royal robes was silent for a long time, then took out a small purple bottle from his arms, walked gently to the statue, poured a few drops of liquid from the bottle into the purple lamp.

The liquid is transparent, like lamp oil.

After doing this, he put the small bottle of lamp oil aside, and then turned around silently, his expression filled with sadness and even a touch of pain.

And his appearance was also reflected in Xu Qing's eyes at this moment. He was very similar to Zixuan, and the two seemed like brothers and sisters.

He stepped towards the door of the main hall, passed in front of Xu Qing, and walked farther and farther...

As it disappeared, the door of the main hall slowly closed.

Zixuan next to the statue raised his head with a sad expression, and squatted there leaning against the statue. Gradually, the entire hall fell into darkness.

And the light from the lamp carvings on the statue, even if there is lamp oil, will gradually dim in this darkness until it disappears completely.

Cold, coming.

Darkness replaced everything, only a sigh echoed and lingered for a long time.

Until the next moment, this piece of black suddenly disappeared and turned into purple light. After a pause in the air, it quickly rolled back towards the flesh-and-blood city wall compound in the distance.

As the purple light left, the coldness quickly dissipated, and everything in front of Xu Qing returned to normal.

The captain, beside Xu Qing, breathed rapidly and exclaimed.

"Junior brother, I'm in a bit of trouble. I don't know who lived here back then. It's very hard on me, especially that purple light just now..."

At the same time, outside the flesh-and-blood city wall in the distance, the shadow quickly rolled back and trembled under Xu Qing's feet after returning, conveying emotions of grievance and fear.

"I'm afraid... that I won't be able to... go in."

Xu Qing frowned, stared at the courtyard with flesh-and-blood city walls in the distance, and suddenly spoke.

"Senior Brother, I think this place looks familiar. Did you hear it just now?"

"Look familiar? What did you hear?" The captain was stunned.

"There seemed to be a sigh in that purple light." Xu Qing said solemnly.

The captain's expression changed and he was about to speak, but at this moment, five hundred miles away, a roaring sound suddenly came from the safe area opened by the human army.

The distance was a bit far, and I couldn't see clearly. I could only feel the fluctuations of the earth faintly. At the same time, announcements were also delivered to their command swords.

"The third batch of arrivals has arrived. I have received orders from His Majesty the Seventh Highness to inform the first batch of people who arrived here that you have paid a lot for the Immortal Forbidden Plan in the past seven days, and there may be changes here next. First
