Chapter 126 The Cleanser Awakens, Locking the Main Gate's Eye
Chapter 126 The Cleanser Awakens, Locking the Main Gate's Eye
Starry Courtyard.
Lin Xiaoya stood deep within the dream.
She wasn't standing on the White Tower corridor, nor in the rooms of the Starry Courtyard.
Instead, it was a half-lit, half-dark open space in front of the door.
There are no walls on all sides.
There is no sky.
Only countless floating white fragments, like broken tiles or a shattered laboratory floor.
In the distance, the enormous black door slowly rose.
A faint blue light flickered through the crack in the door.
The giant eye was hidden behind the crack in the door.
It wasn't fully open.
But even that little bit of gaze made Lin Xiaoya feel as if she were being stared at by the entire abyss.
cold.
It's cold.
That wasn't the cold from the wind.
It was a coldness seeping from the deepest part of the dream.
Her body was trembling.
The little hands were clenched tightly together.
She was scared.
She was just a child.
She didn't have Lin Yuan's composure, nor did she possess the power that made the entire White Tower tremble with fear, like Senior Blood.
But this time, she did not back down.
Because she could sense it.
My brother is far away.
It's not that far away in reality.
Instead, it's separated by dreams, white towers, gate bones, and the deep blue abyss.
But the older brother was still clutching that eye.
That familiar dark gold blood pattern was like a hand, always holding her back, preventing her from being dragged inside.
Subject One stood in front of Lin Xiaoya.
Her figure was more transparent than before.
Just now, when the sect leader's will turned towards Lin Xiaoya, she desperately tried to block it.
That one moment nearly caused her already fragile consciousness to collapse once more.
But she remained standing.
The small shadow stood in front of Lin Xiaoya, just like it stood in front of her twenty years ago.
"Don't look at it for too long."
Subject One spoke very softly.
"It will come in because of your fear."
Lin Xiaoya's voice trembled:
"If I... if I don't look at it, will it not come over?"
Subject One remained silent for a moment.
He then shook his head.
"It will still come."
"Because it already knows you."
Lin Xiaoya's face turned even whiter.
Subject Number One turned his head and looked at her, his eyes serious.
"But knowing doesn't mean you can get through it."
Whether it can see reality clearly, whether it can find the Dragon Abyss Main Star Gate, and whether it can pave the way according to your dream, is not up to it.
"over you."
Lin Xiaoya was stunned.
"With me?"
Subject No. 1 nodded slightly.
"right."
"Those who cleanse the gate are not children of the gate."
"It's not the key to the door either."
"We can hear the door because we can hear the cracks in the door."
"We are seen by the door because we stand between the door and reality."
"If you're afraid, you'll mistake it for a path."
"If you refuse, you can lock that road."
She raised her almost transparent hand and pointed to Lin Xiaoya's forehead.
"The red lotus on your forehead is a protective mark given to you by your brother."
"It can protect you from being dragged away."
"But what can truly close the door is not the seal."
It's yourself.
Lin Xiaoya raised her hand and gently touched her forehead.
The red lotus fire pattern is still heating up.
Beside it, the extremely faint white line was gradually becoming clearer.
Like a lock that is not yet fully formed.
That wasn't the power of the Blood Elder.
It wasn't my brother's power.
It was her own.
She used to think of herself as a nuisance.
He is someone targeted by the Black Gate.
It is a burden that the older brother must protect at all times.
The people at the White Pagoda say she is dangerous.
The staff at the Resource Institute said she needed to be retested.
The elders said she was involved in the security of the main star gate.
Even she herself sometimes felt afraid, afraid that it was because of her that her brother had attracted so many enemies.
But now, Subject One tells her...
She is not the road.
She is the lock.
She wasn't the one who was going to bring the door over.
She's the kind of person who can close the door.
The giant, deep blue eye behind the door slowly turned.
A deep voice rang out directly in the dream.
"Those who are pure in their ways."
Lin Xiaoya's body trembled.
The sound was too loud.
It felt like countless doors were pressing down on her heart at the same time.
Subject One immediately stepped in front of her.
This time, however, the sect leader did not look at Experiment Subject Number One.
Its gaze passed over the afterimage and landed directly on Lin Xiaoya.
"The first lock is already damaged."
"You are more complete than her."
"You should return home."
Lin Xiaoya bit her lip.
She really wanted to hide.
I really want to call him "brother".
But she remembered what Subject Number One had just said.
Her brother can protect her.
But she had to close the door herself.
She looked up.
Her eyes were already red, and her voice was still trembling.
But she still looked into that enormous, dark blue eye and said, word by word:
"I'm not going."
The sect leader's will paused slightly.
The black door in the dream suddenly moved forward an inch.
In just that one inch, all the surrounding white fragments shattered at the same time.
Subject Number One let out a muffled groan, and his figure became even more transparent.
"It's forcing you."
Don't agree.
Lin Xiaoya clenched her small hands even tighter.
The sect leader's voice rang out again:
You can't refuse.
"The door will open."
"The main star gate will open."
"The bones beneath the White Pagoda will awaken."
"Longyuan will become part of the gate."
"Your brother will be swallowed by the door too."
Lin Xiaoya's breath hitched.
brother.
These two words pierced her heart like needles.
A fleeting image flashed before her eyes.
Lin Yuan stood amidst countless dark blue shadows.
The old school uniform was torn.
His body was covered in blood.
A huge eye opened from behind him, trying to drag him inside.
Lin Xiaoya's face turned pale instantly.
"elder brother……"
The scene looked so real.
She almost reached out to grab it.
But the next moment, the red lotus fire pattern on her forehead suddenly became hot.
A familiar scent abruptly pulled her back to reality.
fake.
My brother wouldn't just stand there and wait to die.
Her brother wouldn't let her be fooled by something like that.
Lin Xiaoya suddenly looked up.
She looked at the giant, dark blue eye behind the door.
You're lying.
The sect leader paused slightly.
Lin Xiaoya's voice was still trembling.
But this time, it was even clearer than before.
"My brother won't be swallowed up by you."
"If you could really beat him, you wouldn't be trying to scare me."
"You came to me because you couldn't get through it yourself."
Subject number one was stunned.
She looked at Lin Xiaoya, and a glimmer of light suddenly appeared in her eyes.
Yes.
If you can just walk through the door, why scare a child with a dream?
Why is it necessary to have a Pure Land practitioner?
Why is it necessary to observe the ring?
Because it can't get through.
Because the door wasn't open yet.
Because it needs a road.
Lin Xiaoya, however, can prevent it from taking this path.
A chill finally crept into the depths of the sect leader's enormous, deep blue eyes.
"A weak lock."
"It will eventually be worn down."
Lin Xiaoya shook her head vigorously.
"I am not alone."
She raised her hand and pressed it to her forehead.
The red lotus fire pattern lit up.
The white lock pattern beside it finally appeared slowly, as if it had been awakened.
At first, it was just a thin white line.
Then, the white line separated.
staggered.
close.
Like a small lock, it is embedded next to the red lotus fire pattern.
Honglian is Lin Yuan's protector.
The white lock was her own rejection.
The two forces are not in conflict.
Instead, they reflect each other in dreams.
The eerie blue light behind the door paused for a moment, suppressed for the first time.
Subject One's voice trembled slightly:
"Now."
"Don't attack it."
"You can't attack it."
"Just close the door."
Lin Xiaoya nodded.
She looked at the huge black door.
Her face was pale, but she was extremely serious.
"I won't let you pass."
The words fell.
The white lock pattern on his forehead suddenly lit up.
The light wasn't dazzling.
It's not domineering either.
Unlike Lin Yuan's extreme Dao Qi and blood, which was so heavy it could crush everything.
It is very quiet.
Like a hand gently pressing against the crack in the door.
Then, push it back.
Rumbling--
The black door in the dream made its first dull thud.
The crack in the door slowly closed up by a hairline.
Just a frontline.
But this caused the giant blue eye behind the door to suddenly dim.
The base of the White Pagoda.
Inside the sealed well.
The flow of the sect leader's will was abruptly blocked.
The wisp of blue light that tried to follow the anchor marks in the dream to lock onto Lin Xiaoya seemed to have bumped into an invisible door.
Lin Yuan seized this moment.
He gripped the fragment of the King-level gate bone tightly with his five fingers.
"return."
boom!
The Extreme Star Furnace is spinning at full speed.
That wisp of the sect leader's will was torn off by Lin Yuan, who pulled it in the opposite direction along the anchor mark in the dream, and forcibly ripped a piece from the giant blue eye.
The sect leader let out a low, resonant sound for the first time.
It wasn't a scream.
But it was indeed the vibration caused by being torn apart.
A system notification appears.
[The remnant energy of the sect master's will was successfully absorbed.]
[Removing contaminants from behind high-rise building doors]
[Physical compression of Qi and blood is underway]
[Current number of Qi and Blood Physical Compression Counts: 710000]
[Current number of Qi and Blood Physical Compression Counts: 713000]
The star furnace within Lin Yuan's body roared.
The skeleton of the newly formed Extreme Star Body once again lit up with a patch of silver-white star patterns.
This wisp of the sect leader's residual will is more powerful than the residual energy of ordinary sect bones.
not much.
But pure.
It looked like a small piece of flesh torn from a giant beast.
Lin Yuan looked up at the giant, dark blue eye.
"She won't let you pass."
"I won't let you leave either."
The giant, deep blue eye slowly turned.
This time, it did not retaliate immediately.
Instead, they looked towards the direction of the dream.
The sect leader's voice grew even deeper:
"The second lock."
"More complete than the first one."
The afterimage of Experiment Subject No. 1 stood in the dream, and its expression changed slightly when it heard these words.
She knew what this meant.
The sect leader truly remembered Lin Xiaoya.
Previously, it only wanted to use the Pure Gate to pave the way.
But now, it has confirmed that Lin Xiaoya is more complete than itself, more suitable as a lock, and more suitable as a target to be melted into a key.
Lin Xiaoya was unaware of the danger behind those words.
But she could sense that the way that eye was looking at her had changed.
It's even colder.
And deeper.
She felt a sense of fear instinctively.
But she did not loosen the white light lock pattern.
The black door in her dream was still partially blocked by her.
Subject One walked gently to her side.
Her body had become so transparent that it was almost disappearing.
But for the first time, there was no despair in her eyes.
"You did it."
Lin Xiaoya asked in a low voice:
"Did I really... shut it off?"
Subject One gently shook his head.
"not yet."
"You've only locked one of its eyes."
"But this is already very good."
She looked at the white freckles on Lin Xiaoya's forehead and spoke very softly:
"I failed to do it back then."
"So it saw me."
"But you did it."
Lin Xiaoya bit her lip.
"Will it come back in the future?"
Subject One remained silent for a moment.
"meeting."
"And I'll want you even more."
Lin Xiaoya's face turned pale.
Subject Number One squatted down and looked at her at eye level.
But you're different now.
"You now know that you are not the road."
"As long as you remember this, it won't easily turn you into a road."
Lin Xiaoya nodded.
Then, she whispered:
"elder sister."
Will you disappear?
Subject number one was stunned for a moment.
She looked down at her increasingly transparent hands.
"Maybe."
"After your brother swallowed the door bone, I might not have to stay trapped here any longer."
"Will you die?"
Subject One remained silent for a moment.
Then he gave a very faint smile.
"I should have died twenty years ago."
"If I could stop dreaming, that would be great."
Lin Xiaoya's eyes immediately reddened.
She reached out, trying to grab Subject Number One.
But his fingers passed right through the other person's transparent palm.
Subject One looked at her and said gently:
"Don't cry."
You are luckier than me.
You have an older brother.
"It also has the power to close its doors."
Deep within the dream.
The black gate trembled once more.
The sect leader's will seemed unwilling to be locked away like this.
The giant, deep blue eyes opened wide once more.
Ke Lin Xiaoya's forehead white lock lines lit up.
The red lotus fire pattern also ignited.
The door was locked in white.
Red lotus protects you.
The two forces combined, causing the dream anchor mark to disappear once more.
The sect leader could no longer continue to peer into reality along this line.
Not at least not now.
……
The base of the White Pagoda.
The eerie blue light in the sealed well suddenly contracted.
After the sect leader's branch was severed by Lin Xiaoya, the fragment of the king-level sect bone under Lin Yuan's palm vibrated even more violently.
It seemed to be trying to close the crack again, preventing Lin Yuan from continuing to absorb and refine the essence.
But it's too late now.
Lin Yuan pressed down on the door frame with one hand.
Raise your other hand and press down with your five fingers.
The forbidden domain of the extreme path covers the entire sealed well.
"Don't you like watching it?"
"Keep watching."
boom!
Dark gold blood and energy were forcibly poured into the crack in the door bone.
The sect leader's remaining will within the sect's bones was gradually dragged toward the Extreme Dao Star Furnace.
The system indicated that the beeping continued.
[Currently absorbing and refining the remnants of the sect leader's will]
[Current number of Qi and Blood Physical Compression Counts: 715000]
Improvement is still slow.
However, after the sect leader's will was torn apart, the internal structure of the fragments of the Fengwang Sect's bones began to become unstable.
Lin Yuan could sense that this section of the door bone was about to give way.
As long as the layer of the sect leader's will is stripped away.
The remaining fragments of the gate bone will transform into even purer, higher-level energy.
Perhaps the afterimage of Experiment Subject One can truly break free.
The sect leader's deep voice rang out:
"The Gate Swallower".
"Those who are pure in their ways."
"You should all return to your home."
Lin Yuan's eyes remained calm.
"Just remember that."
"The real body will come next time."
"Don't just give away one eye."
A chilling aura surged from the depths of the giant, dark blue eye.
However, the sect leader did not send any more people to touch Lin Xiaoya.
Because it knew that the path to the dream was temporarily locked.
Thus, all the pressure fell back on Lin Yuan.
The sealed well trembled again.
The dark blue patterns on the surface of the broken door frame fragments all lit up.
The sect leader's first wisp of will finally decided to deal with the sect devourer in front of him first.
……
Above the White Pagoda.
After Qin Xuanxiao burned his true intent, the Mountain and River Domain was fully unleashed.
A bright red sun hangs in the sky.
The barren mountain resembles a sacred peak.
The long river is like molten gold.
Blood Shadow looked up, the starlight within his body flowing.
He sensed the fluctuations emanating from the main body.
Lin Xiaoya locked the sect leader's branch.
Lin Yuan tore off a piece of the sect master's remnant will power.
The situation on the dark side of the battlefield has temporarily stabilized.
Then the open battlefield should continue.
Qin Xuanxiao stared coldly at the Blood Shadow.
"Blood-faced Ancient Cultivator"
"I'd like to see how long you can hold out."
Blood Shadow's six arms slowly unfolded.
The crimson lotus flame pattern pulsed violently.
The harbingers of the three-stage destruction of Brahma finally emerged from beneath the black robe.
A blurry, eight-armed, dark gold phantom appeared and disappeared behind him.
Blood Shadow's voice was deep:
"support?"
"No."
"Next."
"It's your turn to hold on."
