Phoenix Seeking Phoenix
Chapter 628: Phoenix Seeking Phoenix
"The second level of Kaihuang Heaven..."
Qin Mu looked around and what came into view were endless ruins, collapsed city walls and palaces, a broken flying city in the sky, ruined mountains and rivers, and corpses scattered all over the ground.
The mountains in the distance are incomplete. Each peak looks like a corn cob that has been gnawed countless times, with even a large piece of the core eaten away, and is crumbling.
The cracked earth is full of volcanoes and magma. The rivers are the blood flowing on the continent, and the blood here is a series of huge rivers of magma!
There are strange star fragments and weird-shaped clouds in the sky. Those clouds should be the traces left by magical powers.
Qin Mu stepped on the ground. The land here had completely hardened and no plants could grow. Suddenly, a strong wind blew and he saw a scene that he would never forget. Many human bones were blown by the wind and turned into a pile of white bones, rolling past him.
Then, many large balls of white bones were blown around in front of him by the strong wind.
When the wind stopped, the bone balls scattered and lay all over the ground.
Then, from those white bones emerged a number of residual souls, floating like will-o'-the-wisp, flying around. One could vaguely see the faces of many creatures, but their bodies were tattered, with limbs missing.
When the wind started to blow, the ghostly spirits flying in the air quickly drilled into the bones. The skeletons ran wildly, trying to avoid the strong wind. However, they were blown over by the strong wind as they ran. Then, many bones linked together hand in hand, piling up into huge bone balls, which were blown away by the wind.
Qin Mu had never seen or heard of such a bizarre sight before.
"These residual souls should be the souls of the dead creatures. Because they are incomplete, the underworld does not accept them and allows them to wander in the world."
Qin Mu thought to himself, "They have no support, so they have to burrow into the bones. Only by burrowing into the bones can they feel that they are still alive, right?"
"I'm probably going to die."
Behind him, Indra, the king of heaven, was in a weak state and said dejectedly, "The Southern Sky Red Emperor Qi Xiayu is too powerful. The song she played was enough to take my life. I think I'm going to die soon. Qin Xiaoyou, you can walk the rest of the way by yourself..."
"good!"
Qin Mu said straightforwardly: "After you die, I will bury you and then go on my way. Wang Fo, do you want to be cremated or buried?"
The Indra Buddha widened his eyes and said angrily, "I'm not even dead yet, and you're thinking about cremation and burial?"
Qin Mu smiled and said, "Although I haven't practiced the Emperor's Heavenly King Sutra for a long time, I know how powerful this technique is. Both my physical body and my soul are top-notch and indestructible. Although it is not as good as the Emperor's Throne Technique, it is not much different. How could Wang Fo practice for so many years and be wiped out by a song?"
The Indra Buddha blinked his eyes and said with a bleak face: "In order to protect you, I had to resist the sound of the Red Emperor Qi Xiayu's zither, and my life force has been shaken off..."
"The magical power of the Red Emperor Qi Xiayu crossed the space and chased after him, destroying Dui Qian's energy first. Nearly half of his magical power has been destroyed by that energy."
Qin Mu analyzed, "So Wang Fo is fighting against the other half of the power. This power is not enough to take Wang Fo's life, right? Moreover, I have heard the song of the Red Emperor. It is a very famous piano piece. The name of this song is Feng Qiu Huang."
Indra continued blinking and said weakly, "What is Feng Qiu Huang? I have never heard of it..."
"There is a beauty, I never forget her when I see her. I miss her like crazy when I don't see her for a day. The phoenix flies high, and the four seas seek the phoenix. But the beauty is not at the east wall. I will use the zither to express my feelings. When will I see Xu Xi and comfort my wandering?"
Qin Mu sang a tune loudly while stroking his hands in the air. Although he had no zither or strings in his hands, his vital energy transformed into the strings that leaped and made sounds. It was the same tune as the one that Chidi Qi Xiayu played when he was chasing them!
The young man played the zither and sang loudly, in a very unrestrained manner: "…Why did we embrace each other and become mandarin ducks? Why do we fly together soaring with each other! Phoenix, please live with me, so that I can breed and breed with you and make you my concubine forever. Our friendship is harmonious, who knows that we are together in the middle of the night? We both take off our wings and fly high, but you have no feeling for my thoughts, which makes me sad—"
The tail end of the piano music surrounded the two of them for a long time. His piano music and singing attracted many skeletons. A group of skeletons ran over, surrounded them, tilted their heads to listen, and some skeletons danced to accompany him.
Qin Mu dispersed his vitality and said, "The Phoenix Seeks the Phoenix was written by a man to a woman. The meaning of the lyrics is that the man persuades the woman to elope with her. They had a happy relationship in the past, and the man wants the woman to be grateful for this relationship and give up everything to live together forever."
The Indra Buddha was silent. Suddenly he sat up, brushed off the dirt on his body, and waved his hand to disperse the eavesdropping skeletons: "What are you looking at? What's so good about it? Go away. Qin Xiaoyou, there are thirty-three heavens in Kaihuang Heaven. Taihuang Heaven is the first heaven. The second heaven is here, called Taiming Heaven. The thirty-three heavens are actually interconnected. When we reach Taiming Heaven, we are not far from Taihuang Heaven..."
Qin Mu continued, "I once learned this piece from the deaf grandfather in our village. The deaf grandfather is one of the most knowledgeable people in our village, so what he taught me must be correct. But Chidi Qi Xiayu should be a woman, right? This piece of music was composed by a man, so it's a bit strange for her to play it. And there is obviously resentment in her piece of music. It seems that it is not used to kill people, but to satirize people who write poems and compose music..."
The injuries on the body of Emperor Shi Tianwang Buddha seemed to have healed suddenly. He took a step forward and said, "Go up from Taimingtian Heaven and you will reach Qingming Heaven. Going up from Qingming Heaven and you will reach Xuantai Heaven. It was very prosperous here in the past..."
The skeletons were dispersed by him, and then they came up like a group of curious alpacas.
Qin Mu continued, "This piece of music was played by a woman, and it satirizes people who write poems and compose music. So what Chidi Qi Xiayu wants to satirize is..."
The Indra Buddha suddenly turned around and angrily asked, "What do you want?"
Qin Mu was startled and quickly shut up. The skeletons also ran away quickly.
The Indra Buddha snorted coldly, walked forward angrily, and said angrily: "I have let go of everything. There is no need to mention the past! I let it go a long time ago, but she just couldn't let it go. She kept pestering me and came to kill me after finding something on me. Do you blame me?"
Qin Mu smiled and followed him to listen. Indra Buddha sneered and said, "It's obviously her fault that she is narrow-minded. I can't blame me. I didn't become a monk in my early years. I had such a green time that I thought I could be with her and ignore the struggle between the Heavenly Court and the Kaihuang Heavenly Court. But she was reluctant to give up her power and was unwilling to go with me. Later, when we met on the battlefield, she killed countless of my brothers and sisters. She was cruel and ruthless. That's why I broke off all ties with her!"
Qin Mu dispersed the curious skeletons that surrounded him. Emperor Shi Tianwang Buddha sighed, "The reason why the Heavenly Court reacted so quickly this time is because she still hates me and thinks I betrayed her. If her magical power had killed me just now, it would have been fine. If I died, she would not have chased me. But she didn't kill me, which means she would definitely chase me. Her speed is unparalleled in the world. I can't run away with you, so I pretended to be seriously injured and let you leave alone. But you exposed me, Qin Xiaoyou, it's not good to be too smart."
Qin Mu was silent for a moment, then asked, "Can you escape from the Red Emperor's pursuit?"
The Indra Buddha shook his head and said, "Her ship can travel through the universe without being blocked by any barriers. Her speed is the best in the world. How can I escape? I plan to go up against the flow and pass through the Thirty-three Heavens of Kaihuang to hide there. If she can't find me, she will retreat. I can't take you with me. If I take you with me, you will surely die."
Some ships can travel between different worlds. Qin Mu has also seen such ships, such as the Ark of the Other Shore of the Tiangong Clan, and the ship of his father Qin Hanzhen, which also sailed into the sky above Daxu from another world.
As the Red Emperor of the South Sky, it is not surprising that Qi Xia Yu owns such a ship.
Qin Mu nodded silently and said, "If you take me with you, you will also be implicated. Wang Fo, let's say goodbye now."
The Indra Buddha nodded slightly and said, "She will arrive here soon. I must separate from you. Do you have a way to return to Taihuang Heaven?"
Qin Mu smiled and said, "At worst, we can just rebuild a spiritual energy bridge. You don't have to worry about me. I'm more worried about you."
The Indra Buddha quickened his pace, raised his hand and pointed to the east, and his voice faded away with him: "If you go that way, you should be able to find the way to Taihuang Heaven!"
His figure flew away quickly and gradually disappeared.
Qin Mu opened his eyes and felt that his vision had recovered a little. He then stuck the golden willow leaf on his third eye. If his third eye was exposed, he would not dare to activate the Tyrant Body Three Dan Gong, so it was better for him to keep it stuck on normal days.
He walked towards the east. There was no one here, no living creatures, only groups of white bones blown around by the wind. When the wind died down, the skeletons followed him like curious alpacas. The brave skeletons even touched his clothes and pinched his face.
Qin Mu ignored these undead spirits and continued moving eastward. Suddenly, he heard the sound of a piano coming from the sky.
That was the song of a phoenix courting a mate. Although it was clearly a melody of courtship, it contained sadness and hatred.
The dim sky suddenly became bright, and a ship with a pair of phoenix wings came from another world and appeared in the sky of Taiming Day. The sound of the piano came from that ship.
Qin Mu was listening intently. At this moment, a terrifying spiritual wave swept over, sweeping in all directions, spreading along the desolate land of Taiming Ming, and penetrating Taiming Ming like a tide!
When this spiritual wave swept across Qin Mu's body, it paused slightly, then submerged it again, without attacking Qin Mu.
The ship vibrated its pair of phoenix wings and drew a graceful arc in the air. It did not chase Qin Mu, but chased in the direction where Indra Buddha left.
Chidi Qi Xiayu was not interested in capturing Qin Mu at all, she was only interested in Indra, the King of Heaven Buddha.
"What story did Indra Buddha have with her? Perhaps, they are the protagonists of their own story..."
Qin Mu watched the ship go away, feeling relieved, and continued to move eastward while honing his skills. The Magic Dao Divine Treasure emerged behind him, trying to merge the Seven Star Divine Treasure with the Six Harmonies Divine Treasure.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Tai Mingtian still didn't see the end.
Suddenly, Qin Mu stopped and looked forward, only to see a magnificent divine city standing there. The divine city was bustling with people coming and going, and there were gods and demons standing on high places, looking around vigilantly.
Qin Mu's body trembled slightly, and he looked around, only to see that the ruined Taiming Tianya had disappeared, and in its place was the Taiming Tianya that had not yet been destroyed by the war!
Qin Mu looked around and his mind was buzzing. The collapsed mountains stood up again, and the destroyed city of God reappeared, bright and new. From this geographical point of view, the geography here is consistent with the geographical map left by the founder of Tiansheng Sect!
And that geographical map points to this holy city!
“My eldest senior brother lived after the end of the Kaihuang era. It is impossible for him to map out the geography of the Kaihuang era before it was destroyed, nor is it possible for him to point out this divine city that no longer exists! Something is wrong, something is wrong…” Qin Mu’s mind was in a mess.
