She had never been to Songyang Cave Heaven, she only understood the meaning of the word "prison" literally.
As for Qing Jun, who was still lying on Chen Ye’s back, this girl wasn’t even pretending anymore:
"Master, did you hear that! This is what happens when you’re disobedient! Master is so weak, the outside world is too dangerous... In the future, Master must stay by Qing Jun’s side obediently, not allowed to go anywhere. If Master disappears again like today, Qing Jun will ask Senior Sister to make a very, very long chain and tie Master to Qing Jun’s bedside! So Master can tell Qing Jun stories every day!"
Darned two demon pills!
Chen Ye was really angry!
"Dong! Dong!"
Two crisp knocks landed on the foreheads of the second and third disciples.
"Ouch!"
Qing Jun clutched her forehead, pouting with grievance.
Jin’er also pretended to rub her brow, her face flushed and her eyes watery as she innocently looked at her master.
"No sense of propriety, even daring to tease your master?"
Chen Ye straightened his face, revealing his master’s authority,
"What chain or cage, I think you two haven’t had enough homework lately, reading too many storybooks! If you dare to speak nonsense again, go back and copy the Calming Incantation one hundred times!"
Though he said it sternly, Chen Ye didn’t really mean it.
These two little girls usually lacked a sense of security, and after being frightened in the Celestial Abyss this time, they were afraid of losing him again, so they said such impulsive words.
Fortunately, the eldest disciple was considerate.
The black-haired girl watched her nose, her nose watched her heart, her expression as cool as a high mountain flower, she had never said such outrageous words.
"Ahem..."
Bai Liuyue coughed twice, thinking that Chen Ye spoiled the two disciples too much, speaking without respect.
He quickly changed the topic:
"Um... Chen Ye lad, let’s get back on track. Since the girl Zhiwei deduced Lord Luoxiao’s true goal was to break the shackles of time with a double explosion, what should we do now?"
Chen Ye took the opportunity to let the matter go, no longer arguing with the two disciples:
"Miss Jiaming, since you know the Celestial Abyss like the back of your hand, you must also know the method to break the impasse, right? At this moment, whether we like it or not, to preserve my and Susu’s lives, we must destroy this Celestial Abyss."
"Alright, then you all... just follow me."
Qin Jiaming’s eyes curved, seemingly in a good mood.
But Zhiwei always had a premonition that Qin Jiaming seemed to be secretly observing her and the two junior sisters.
In this situation.
Everyone could only trust this mysterious Qin Jiaming, following her out of the hiding place.
The deeper they went, the more chaotic the laws around them became.
Floating black rocks, reverse-flowing waterfalls, and occasional glimpses of images from twenty-three years ago all indicated the extraordinariness of this place.
Occasionally.
Chen Ye could even see his father-in-law’s image.
Bai Li stared at his own image, murmuring, "The future me, also came here..."
In the image, he was already at the Golden Core stage, slaying a Golden Core offspring.
Qin Jiaming nodded:
"Of course, Brother Bai, you fell in the Celestial Abyss... Didn’t you hear what that Duqing Sect cultivator said? Your body is now in the Emotion Crossing Sect."
Bai Susu frowned deeply, unhappy upon hearing this, just as she wanted to refute, Chen Ye gently held her wrist, smiled, and said:
"Miss Jiaming once said, although Brother Bai at this moment is just a projection, not the real him in history, he can change some small causalities through the Celestial Abyss..."
"Yes, I certainly said that."
Qin Jiaming turned around lightly with her hands behind her back, a sly smile on her face,
"Big brother wants to save Brother Bai, right?"
Chen Ye could feel Susu’s hand tighten slightly, he grasped her wrist tightly and nodded:
"I hope Miss Jiaming will speak plainly."
Qin Jiaming frowned in distress, tapping her lower lip with her finger, looking conflicted:
"But why should I save Brother Bai... Haha, just kidding, if big brother is willing to be my furnace... cough cough, also a joke, Jiaming is not a demon cultivator."
The three little ones and the blonde girl all turned dark.
To flirt with their master/partner right in front of their faces!
Bai Liuyue also muttered to himself: "This girl, the more I look, the more wicked she seems... why are all the girls Little Friend Chen knows a bit abnormal."
It really seemed to be just a joke,
Qin Jiaming reined in her playful tone, looking seriously at Chen Ye:
"Big brother, is the vitality in your body very special?"
Chen Ye was slightly taken aback.
His first cultivation technique is the Evergreen Technique, which has undergone two transformations,
The second cultivation technique is the Life and Death Profound Light Sutra, which has undergone one transformation.
Both techniques are related to vitality.
With them, he can condense pure vitality power, which was the foundation when he practiced the Blood Ignition Shadow Transformation Escape technique.
"You only need to plant a thread of vitality in Brother Bai’s body."
Qin Jiaming extended two fingers, indicating a small distance,
"When we detonate the Celestial Abyss, I will take action to help Brother Bai preserve this last bit of vitality from dispersing."
"And then?" Bai Susu couldn’t help but ask, his voice slightly trembling.
"And then..." Qin Jiaming spread his hands with a smile, "If Brother Bai’s insight is high enough, perhaps in the future, he can comprehend some extraordinary path from this thread of vitality in his darkest hour."
Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback.
Comprehending a path? Is that all? Wasn’t there talk of saving him?
Seeming to see through everyone’s confusion, Qin Jiaming shook his head solemnly, even adding a hint of warning:
"Don’t expect that Brother Bai will miraculously appear alive and well with you twenty-three years later."
"The grand trend of history is irreversible. This calamity is part of his fate, it’s a certainty. What we can do now is not resurrect him, but forcefully insert a variable into history through this thread of vitality!"
"The reason we can barely change this tiny cause and effect is because of Brother Bai’s special state. His corpse is intact, in a half-dead, half-alive state."
"This is the fundamental reason we can exploit the loophole!"
"If in history, Brother Bai were completely destroyed or his divine soul obliterated, then no matter how much vitality we sow here today, it wouldn’t be possible to bring him back to life!"
Upon hearing this,
Although everyone felt regret, they had no choice but to accept.
"Oh, right."
Qin Jiaming seemed to suddenly remember something, and winked slyly at Chen Ye,
"Even if this thread of vitality does play a role, in the future Brother Bai would only be a corpse with vitality. Brother, if you truly want to save Brother Bai..."
She deliberately elongated her tone, saying with a teasing smile:
"You’ll need to go personally to the ancestral land of the Emotion Crossing Sect to snatch Brother Bai’s body back!"
Go to the ancestral land of the Emotion Crossing Sect to snatch a corpse?!
Bai Liuyue only felt dizzy.
The ancestral land of the Emotion Crossing Sect is an even more terrifying place than this Celestial Abyss, with countless old monsters slumbering within!
Chen Ye thought for a moment, his eyes brightening as he looked at the unconscious Tuoba You and said with a smile:
"It seems there really might be a way! Later, I will enter the Emotion Crossing Sect under the guise of a Loose Cultivator, using Tuoba You to find Brother Bai!"
"Hmm!"
Qin Jiaming was even happier, she couldn’t help but lick her lips, harboring some anticipation.
"Chen... Chen Ye, but what about you..."
At this moment, Bai Susu became hesitant instead.
If Chen Ye goes to the Emotion Crossing Sect to find Father, it is akin to placing him in a perilous situation!
Moreover,
Only Chen Ye and his three disciples can blend into the Emotion Crossing Sect utilizing Tuoba You, she, even if willing to assist, has no way to accompany him in his quest.
"Susu, don’t worry, I have a plan... If I had no plan, I wouldn’t bring my disciples into the Emotion Crossing Sect, right."
Chen Ye truly wasn’t anxious, knowing that he is now at the Late Period of Foundation Establishment, and there are few in the Emotion Crossing Sect with greater cultivation than he.
Regarding those he can’t defeat, can’t he just hide?
Moreover, he can suppress the Emotion Crossing Seed, making him feel at ease within the sect, seldom attracting suspicion from others.
Bai Susu felt slightly relieved.
Indeed, if there was genuine danger, Chen Ye surely wouldn’t bring his disciples into the Emotion Crossing Sect.
"Brother Chen, your great kindness, Bai remembers it in his heart." Bai Li took a deep breath, solemnly cupping his fists.
Chen Ye waved his hand, stepping forward to Bai Li, raising his fingers like a sword, his fingertips aglow with a light as mystic as fresh spring green.
This is the source vitality condensed from the two transformations of the Evergreen Technique and Life and Death Profound Light Sutra!
"Excuse me."
Chen Ye pointed at Bai Li’s forehead.
In an instant, that thread of vitality merged flawlessly into Bai Li’s four limbs and hundred bones through his brow, finally settling silently within the depths of his heart vessels.
The task was accomplished!
"Done!"
Qin Jiaming clapped her hands, her eyes curving like crescent moons,
"Now that our lifeline trump card is played, we should move on to the main task! Follow me, there’s a big obstacle ahead."
