C27 Depends on One's Nature and Fate
The dust from the battle covered the entire cave, and as it flew, it quickly engulfed everything. After an unknown amount of time, the dust gradually dissipated, and the cave revealed the appearance of a man and a tiger.
"Cough ~ Cough ~"
A series of coughs broke the silence in the cave. A young man covered in blood was deeply embedded in the wall, panting heavily.
"Cough ~"
The young man slowly opened his eyes. He only saw darkness in front of him. Only his left hand shone with a faint light. The young man was instantly at a loss.
"Strange, where is this place?"
The young man said to himself, but his eyes turned down unconsciously. He suddenly found a huge thing with a fierce look on its face. It was still staring at him with its eyes wide open.
"demonic tiger!"
Guxing immediately reacted, and his hair stood on end like a thunderclap. Only now did he remember that he was in a fierce fight with the demonic tiger earlier, and he didn't dare to be neglectful. He hurriedly struggled to get down, but he realized that he couldn't use any strength at all.
"It's useless. Most likely, his meridians are broken!"
Guxing suddenly felt a wave of despair. Could it be that he was going to die here today? The more he thought about it, the more unwilling he became. He tried a few more times, but there was still no reaction from his four limbs. He made up his mind and looked at the demonic tiger on the ground as he laughed loudly.
"demonic tiger, I admit defeat today. Anyway, I have already slaughtered your entire clan. This life is enough for me. If you want to kill me, then kill me. Please!"
After laughing, Guxing saw that the demonic tiger still didn't have any reaction. He immediately became angry. "Are you tired of living? If you don't make a move now, don't blame me for being rude to you. "
After a while, Guxing suddenly felt that something was wrong. This evil tiger did not even blink from beginning to end.
"It can't be that it's dead, right?"
Guxing muttered in a low voice. He suddenly remembered the twelfth style of lightning that he had suddenly used at that moment of life and death.
"It makes sense if I die under that sword. "
With this thought, Guxing heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, he glared at Guxing. He glanced at the demonic tiger and said, "You're already dead, but you still dare to act mysterious here.
His tensed nerves were instantly relieved. Guxing suddenly thought of an important matter, Ms Yue.
Suddenly realizing that the sword was in his hand, Guxing laughed at himself. He called out Xiao Yue's name, but there was no response for a long time.
"Sigh, I wonder how Ms Yue is doing. "
Guxing sighed. He was not really worried. Xiao Yue was only knocked out by the shock. She was probably hiding in the sword to adjust her breathing. He did not believe that a roar could kill Xiao Yue.
Then he tried to move his body again. He was pleasantly surprised to find that a few of his fingers were already trembling slightly.
"Hey, there's a chance!"
Guxing was secretly delighted. When he thought about how he had already avenged his revenge and no longer had to worry about violating his oath, he could not help but let out a long sigh.
"The hatred that has been entangled with me for sixteen years can finally be ended. Uncle, all of you can die in peace. Grandfather. . . "
When he thought of the old man, his eyes involuntarily reddened again. " Grandfather, did you see that? I have already avenged you. You can rest in peace in the underworld. "
He had gotten his revenge, but he suddenly could not feel the pleasure that he had imagined for a long time. Without hatred, he suddenly felt a little confused. Only then did he realize that after such a long time, hatred had forced him all the way until now. There was no hatred anymore. He seemed to have lost his direction, and for a moment, he felt depressed.
"I really am despicable. In the past, when I could not get my revenge, I thought about it with all my might. Now that I finally got my revenge, I can't bear to part with it anymore. "
He laughed self-deprecatingly and tossed these worries aside with a bitter smile. The most important thing right now was to think of a way to get down from above.
After a few incense sticks of time, Guxing's hands finally recovered some strength. He immediately used his hands to support himself and struggled to get down. The first time, he failed. The second time, he failed again. The third time, he failed again. However, not only was Guxing not disappointed, he was even more motivated. This was because he found that every time he tried, his body would recover a little more strength.
Finally, when he reached the fifteenth time, he successfully fell off the wall. However, because he used too much strength and his legs had not recovered their senses, he immediately fell on the demonic tiger's head.
Even though he had used his hands to protect his head in time, he was still knocked out. However, he did not have time to moan before he lay on the demonic tiger's head and searched desperately.
"Strange, there's actually no wound. "
Guxing repeatedly searched for a long time and found that other than some slight sword scars, there was nothing else suspicious about it. He could only give up decisively. He was already dead. There was no need to care about how he died. He had to make the best use of his time to recover and leave this place.
After he gave in, Guxing changed his posture to a slightly more comfortable one. He then chanted the mantra and silently circulated his inner energy. However, he could not lift his breath all of a sudden. Immediately, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Guxing smiled bitterly and wiped the blood from his mouth. He didn't expect that he wouldn't be able to count on the Genuine Qi anymore. It seemed like he wouldn't be able to get out of this place for the time being. Fine, he might as well turn his head to the demonic tiger and fall into a deep sleep.
After an unknown period of time, Guxing suddenly felt a heart-piercing pain all over his body. It was so painful that he directly sat up from his dream. When he woke up, the pain immediately magnified by several times. Cold sweat instantly drenched his back.
For a moment, he firmly grabbed the demonic tiger's skin. His entire body tensed up, and his face distorted. It was obvious that he was in extreme pain, but he gritted his teeth and didn't make a sound. When the pain finally eased, it was as if his entire body had just been fished out of the water. It was wet, and the tiger skin that was originally difficult to pierce with a sword. . . It was almost torn off a piece of the tiger skin.
Only then did he loosen his mouth and lie on the tiger's back, gasping for air. This process was not without benefits. Under the stimulation of the pain, he already faintly felt the existence of his legs, which meant that the thing he was most worried about did not happen.
"Phew, luckily it's not broken"
Guxing heaved a sigh of relief. He was glad that he had been fiercely trained by Xiao Yue back then. If it wasn't for the fact that his body had become stronger, After such a fall, he reckoned that he would have died a long time ago.
Although his injuries were severe, it was only a matter of time before he recovered. If he lost his life. . . Then everything would be over.
While he was secretly rejoicing, Guxing suddenly realized that there seemed to be something slowly flowing through his body. He hurriedly closed his eyes and was surprised to find that there was an inexplicable Genuine Qi slowly gathering at the spot where his Dantian was healing something.
His Dantian was damaged! Guxing suddenly understood. No wonder he was unable to circulate his inner energy. It turned out that his Dantian was damaged. He immediately had a look of fear on his face.
The Dantian was the core of a martial artist. It was the place where the human body stored the essence, energy, and spirit. It was of utmost importance and was the foundation of one's life. It could be said that once the Dantian was damaged, the person would basically be crippled. It was no wonder that Guxing's expression changed drastically. If the Dantian was crippled. . . No matter what kind of background he had, it would all be a dream.
"Strange, where did this Genuine Qi come from?"
Guxing tried to control this Genuine Qi, but he found that he couldn't control it at all. It was as if they were ordered by someone, but they kept healing Guxing's injuries.
Guxing had no choice but to follow the direction of the Genuine Qi and search in the opposite direction. Only then did he realize that the source of the Genuine Qi was in his chest.
"It's the jade pendant!"
Guxing exclaimed. He had never thought that the jade pendant, which he had neglected all this time, would have such an effect.
No wonder his injuries were so severe, but there wasn't a trace of injury. It was because of this jade pendant. However, when he thought about how this jade pendant was left to him by his parents, Guxing could not help but feel a little dazed.
"They left such a life-saving thing for me. It seems that they have their own reasons to leave me behind. "
Guxing stroked the jade pendant, as if he could feel the bitter feelings his parents had for him when they had no choice but to abandon him.
"Hmph, even if you have your own difficulties, you still owe me an explanation. "
Whenever they were mentioned, Guxing unconsciously wanted to cry, as if he had a bad premonition.
He held back his tears and did not let it stay, while he said fiercely: "No matter what, I have to become stronger. Only the strong have the right to control the fate of themselves and others. Just wait, I must investigate this matter thoroughly!"
The Genuine Qi in the jade pendant seemed to be endless, continuously healing the injuries in Guxing's Dantian. Guxing felt that his Dantian was immersed in a soft water, and he felt indescribably comfortable.
After six hours, the jade pendant stopped circulating the Genuine Qi into his body. At this moment, he could clearly feel that his dantian could once again contain the spiritual Qi.
"It actually took such a long time!"
The Dantian was indeed the foundation of a human's life. It had only suffered a small portion of the injury, but it had actually taken six hours of the Genuine Qi's output. If it wasn't for this jade pendant. . .
Thinking of this, the lingering fear on Guxing's face deepened.
"A person who survives a great disaster must have good fortune in the future! Since it has already happened, why bother about what will happen if it doesn't happen?"
With a thought, he immediately stopped thinking about it. Instead, he recited the incantation silently and circulated the Genuine Qi slightly. Sure enough, he didn't suffer any backlash this time. The jade pendant had a miraculous effect. Although most of the injuries in his body had healed, However, due to the backlash earlier, his body was still in a state of numbness for a moment. It was difficult for him to move, so he could only use the Genuine Qi to continuously attack the meridians in his body. Only then would he be able to regain his vitality. And this point. . . Obviously the jade can't do it.
"Phew, that was really close!"
Guxing took a deep breath when he saw his own condition. He thought that he had overestimated the demonic tiger, but in the end, he still underestimated it. If it wasn't for this jade pendant, he would have died a long time ago. He was indeed worthy of being called a king. How could he be so powerful when he was in trouble?
"Is this the Innate Realm? He is indeed strong!" Guxing looked at the demonic tiger corpse lying on the ground, his eyes filled with praise.
"Although you have nothing to do with my uncle's death, I have no choice but to kill you. The reason why you're dead and I'm not dead is not because I'm stronger than you. If I hadn't used the 12th style at that time, the person lying on the ground would have been me. Unfortunately, there was no 'if'. "
Guxing waved the dust on the ground and said in a deep voice, "Dust to ashes. It is just karma. Earth to earth, the natural luck is different. This piece of earth is considered as dust. It was good to send you off in this life, to blame me. It doesn't matter whether you hate me or not. In short, you can choose a good family in your next life. "
He sighed with emotion. No matter how mighty you were in the past, At this moment, no matter how insufferably arrogant he was, he was just an empty shell in the end. It didn't matter whether he chose to reincarnate or continue drifting about. It didn't matter if he chose to follow his heart or his nature. It was just a matter of fate.
In an instant, Guxing felt that his state of mind seemed to have changed a little.
