Chapter 215: The Sea That Eats Up Light
Chapter 215: The Sea That Eats Up Light
Li Heng and the ghost baby seemed to be communicating on a certain level, like a momentary collision of spiritual consciousness, and they instantly understood each other's thoughts.
Li Heng narrowed his eyes slightly, looking thoughtful. He had never expected that the ghost baby had this purpose.
The ghost baby looked normal, as if waiting for his response.
Chu Yu didn't realize what was happening between the two of them, and heard Li Heng above his head say:
"Xiao Yu," Li Heng thought again and again, and felt that Chu Yu should make her own decision:
"He wants your help..."
"The ghost fairy asked me for help. How can I help?" Chu Yu was startled and felt a chill on her back. Ever since she came to the ghost den, she had become accustomed to the chill on her back.
"The situation is somewhat special. He just showed me some things that... make people feel uncomfortable and make people feel... hopeless and sad."
Li Heng then took a deep look at Chu Yu and conveyed the ghost baby's meaning: "The ghost baby believes that the power of Liu Yunhuan and the head of Qingliu Sect can save the ghost cultivators here, allowing them to forget their pain and be redeemed."
Chu Yu immediately continued: "But those two are dead, and he somehow found out that the power was transferred to me, so he targeted me."
To be honest, Chu Yu was a little confused. How did this ghost baby know that her physique was special?
Besides, even if Liu Yunhuan's power was with her, she couldn't use it!
She was totally unaware of the aura of that kind of power in her body!
What would happen if the ghost baby knew that it was useless?
"Xiao Yu," Li Heng looked at her seriously, forcing Chu Yu to come back to her senses from her wild thoughts: "The decision is yours."
He said it very seriously, as if he would take Chu Yu away as soon as Chu Yu showed any refusal.
Chu Yu was stunned for a moment.
Damn, damn!
To be honest, after what happened with the shrine, considering my current strength, it would be a lie to say that I am not afraid of the ghost baby.
So she didn't dare to think about what would happen if she went against the ghost baby's wishes.
"give me sometime……"
Chu Yu was practicing the mysterious method frantically, as if he wanted to find something from his body, even the slightest clue.
What she was thinking now was, if she could find that kind of power, could she escape from the ghost baby's eyes without being noticed?
Seeing her like this, Li Heng vaguely figured out what Chu Yu meant. Now he was extremely alert and ready to take Chu Yu into the Purple Mansion at lightning speed.
Strands of purple lightning spread towards Chu Yu at an imperceptible level.
As soon as Chu Yu disappears, it is self-evident that they will not cooperate with the ghost baby, and the next battle will be a tough one.
Before the purple lightning touched Chu Yu, almost at the same time, Chu Yu and Li Heng felt a tinnitus in their ears!
There is another realm invading forcefully!
In an instant, Chu Yu felt a powerful purple electric light enveloping her, but when she opened her eyes, she found that she had arrived in another place.
This ghost baby possesses powerful spatial power. Chu Yu immediately realized that he was tied up again!
The one who kidnapped her this time was the original owner of this spatial power.
"What a sin." Chu Yu wanted to cry but had no tears.
She looked around helplessly, trying to see where the ghost baby had tied her.
There were sounds of wind and water, and she could clearly feel that there was an ocean below her, an ocean filled with a cold and desperate aura.
But this place was only black. She seemed to be standing at a place where the sea and the sky met. The sky was black and the sea was black too.
There is no light here, only endless darkness.
The only consolation was that her body was still surrounded by purple lightning, which was surging wildly, indicating that Li Heng was trying desperately to save her on the other side.
Chu Yu didn't dare to be careless at all. Everything happened so fast that she only realized the seriousness of the matter now.
The ghost baby just forcefully broke into Li Heng's territory and took her away despite the suppression of the territory.
She could hope that Li Heng could save her, but she felt the hope was slim.
"He is very talented, but he has only been an immortal for a few decades, so he is still too young, so he can't stop me."
A child's voice came from below, which scared Chu Yu.
The ghost baby with a red hood stood at Chu Yu's feet. It was very small and tilted its head to talk to Chu Yu.
As he raised his head, his hood naturally slipped down, revealing his cute and childish face.
Even though this child looked very cute, Chu Yu still did not dare to be careless:
"Uh, that, brother, just tell me what you want me to do. As long as I can do it, I will do my best."
Even someone as strong as Li Heng was criticized by this kid for being too immature. Chu Yu's expression changed almost at the speed of light and he looked very respectful.
"Really?" The ghost baby seemed to be seriously considering what Chu Yu said, just like a child making a promise to an adult, hoping that the other party would not deceive him.
"Can you light up this place?"
Chu Yu was stunned when he heard the ghost baby's request.
This sea is filled with endless darkness, without a single trace of light.
The ghost baby just raised his head and looked at her. His appearance was so deceptive that Chu Yu suddenly felt a kind of expectation from a child being imposed on herself. If she didn't do as he said, she would be like a vicious and cruel bad person.
"Let me try." Chu Yu stepped forward and started practicing his skills.
"Star Calling Technique: Morning Star".
In an instant, a blinding light burst out from Chu Yu's body. This was originally a tactic used to blind the enemy during war, but it was actually used here.
Like a morning star, Chu Yu's brilliance shone for a long time, but she found that the children below had no reaction.
After a closer look, Chu Yu realized that although his skills were dazzling, they still could not illuminate the dark seabed. The sky in the distance seemed to be dyed with layers of black ink, swallowing up the brilliance of the stars bit by bit.
The light seemed to be being eroded bit by bit by despair.
"That's enough, thank you."
Nothing could be revealed from the ghost baby's expression, and he didn't seem to expect Chu Yu to give him any surprises.
Chu Yu suddenly put away his martial arts skills, like a meteor flashing across the night sky.
Two figures, one big and one small, suddenly fell silent above the black sea.
Finally, it was the ghost baby who spoke: "Do you know why I am looking for you?"
"I know." Chu Yu responded calmly.
After what happened just now, Chu Yu didn’t want to lie to the ghost baby.
Because even if the child didn't say a word, Chu Yu felt endless despair and sadness.
To some extent, ghost cultivators were once human beings, but they are often associated with words such as bloody and brutal. It is not difficult to imagine what they have experienced in their lifetime.
Since there was such a huge gap in strength, even the eloquence of Chu Yu could not save him. Chu Yu decided that when facing this kid, he should just treat him with sincerity and have a good talk with him.
After listening to this, the ghost baby just looked at the Black Sea calmly and slowly told some stories:
"Strong obsessions create gifted ghost cultivators, but even the strongest ghost cultivators will be tormented by painful memories of their past lives."
"Are you wondering how I knew that power was transferred to you?"
Chu Yu slowly squatted down, getting himself to a height where he could look at the ghost baby at eye level: "Well, can you tell me?"
"Okay, I tell you don't have to be afraid." The ghost baby suddenly turned its head and looked at Chu Yu with a smile, as if it was going to play a prank.
Before Chu Yu could react, she suddenly felt a chill spreading throughout her body, and a sound of lonely footsteps suddenly rang out behind her.
"Oh my god!" Chu Yu, who was just about to exchange his sincerity for sincerity, was so frightened that he couldn't help but swear the next second.
Chu Yu then realized that the embroidered shoes had appeared behind him without him noticing!
"She followed you secretly and saw with her own eyes that you drained away all the power of that old Master He. Later, because the boy with the sword broke in, she had to avoid the limelight of the sword immortal, but according to her speculation, Liu Yunhuan's power should also be in you." The ghost baby floated up and looked at Chu Yu at eye level, but it was still impossible to tell what his mood was at the moment.
Chu Yu thought of what he had done and felt guilty facing the embroidered shoes. Her aura had long surpassed that of the Ghost King. No wonder he couldn't detect her.
And this time, the embroidered shoes actually revealed their true face. She was a pale woman with pretty features. Her lips were unusually bright red under her pale skin. At the moment, she was licking the blood on her fingers, looking very satisfied, as if she had just had a big meal.
"Sister Xie," Chu Yu smiled with a sincere apology, "The situation was critical at the time, and I was in a hurry to save people, so I offended you. I'm really sorry."
Embroidered Shoes said nothing, maintaining her usual mysterious attitude. She glanced at Chu Yu meaningfully and walked silently to the ghost baby.
"She said that due to the pressure from the magician, she couldn't find a chance to swallow the Thousand Faces Scholar. It just so happens that you gave her this opportunity. She can temporarily not pursue it."
The ghost baby calmly conveyed the meaning of the embroidered shoes.
Before Chu Yu could breathe a sigh of relief, the ghost baby spoke again:
"Have you ever found that you always forget things for no apparent reason?"
This question made Chu Yu alert instantly, and he just heard the ghost baby talking to himself:
"There were many cries of children in my sea of consciousness. Until one day, I suddenly realized that a child seemed to be missing. No one knew about it except me. But when I tried to remember him seriously, I found that there was no such person at all."
"I immediately stopped thinking and only used my intuition to tell myself that he existed, but I couldn't prove it, even..."
When the ghost baby said this, a look of confusion flashed across his eyes.
"What did I just say?" The ghost baby turned around and asked Embroidered Shoes. Embroidered Shoes just shook her head, indicating that she couldn't understand what the ghost baby was doing.
At this time, Chu Yu's voice suddenly sounded: "Don't think too much about anything, just trust your intuition."
The ghost baby murmured: "Don't think about anything, just trust your intuition..."
Then he shook his head and started talking about business: "Until a year ago, a living person used a forbidden technique to activate my power and attempted to open the gate that connects Jiuzhou to the ghost cave."
"I ordered the magician to check, but I don't know what agreement he made with that person. He escaped right under my nose. The memories of my other men were erased, so I ordered them to track down the magician's whereabouts."
"Finally, a few months ago, three of my men found this living city in this den of ghosts one after another."
Chu Yu keenly noticed that the Ghost Infant was talking about his three subordinates, which meant that the Thousand-Faced Scholar was not the Ghost Infant's man. However, it didn't matter who he belonged to, as he had now become the Ghost King's nourishment.
The ghost baby continued, "My men discovered that Master He can change other people's memories and do everything without leaving a trace. The magician tried to borrow this ability to escape my control. He openly used my ability to capture ghosts from all over the place. Master He came to cover up his tracks for him."
"But a traitor is a traitor. He is always stupid and has no brains. He doesn't know what that kind of power means. That is what we have been pursuing all along!"
The ghost baby gradually went crazy while saying this, his eyes were stained with a hint of blood red, and he stared at Chu Yu blankly: "So, you have felt despair and pain, can you understand me?"
“Never being able to forget the pain is the greatest despair.”
Chu Yu was filled with various emotions. She frowned, lowered her eyes, slowly exhaled, and replied calmly: "If I forget the pain, I won't be able to take revenge myself. I can't let it go. I can't bear that my enemies can live peacefully."
“So I can’t forget!”
She raised her eyes and looked directly at the ghost baby, but saw a hint of complicated emotions in the other's eyes.
"You are so kind," the ghost baby looked at her and said slowly, "You still have revenge as your hope, but many of us have lost hope, but the pain still exists."
"Let me tell you a few stories."
