Reverend Insanity

Chapter 186: Sacrifice

After coming to Wangting Paradise for so long and going in and out of Eighty-eight Corners Zhenyang Tower many times, Fang Yuan has never forgotten the original intention of this trip to Beiyuan.

That is to save Danghun Mountain.

To save Danghun Mountain, Jiangshan Rujiu Gu is needed.

There are many difficulties in getting this Gu, and the key lies in one person. This person is Taibai Yunsheng.

Fang Yuan has been paying attention to Taibai Yunsheng since he joined the Hei family's army.

A few months ago, Fang Yuan found out a piece of information:

After Hei Loulan obtained the Yijiao Tower Master Order to check the rewards of each level, Taibai Yunsheng immediately came to ask about the existence of the longevity Gu.

But at that time, there was no longevity Gu in the Eighty-eight Corners True Yang Tower.

It was not until the fifty-fifth floor was condensed that Hei Loulan informed Taibai Yunsheng that a fifteen-year-old Gu had been discovered.

After the fifty-fifth floor was completely condensed and formed, Hei Loulan further clarified the location of the longevity Gu, which was used as a reward on the eighty-fifth level of the floor.

From then on, Taibai Yunsheng devoted all his energy to the strategy of the fifty-fifth floor. He encouraged Gu Masters many times, gathered a large team, and overcame difficulties. Relying on his prestige, spreading money widely, and repeatedly asking for help from powerful people such as Hei Loulan, etc., he made good progress.

Hard work paid off, Taibai Yunsheng exhausted all his wealth and finally reached the eighty-fifth level.

Fang Yuan certainly didn't want to see Taibai Yunsheng get what he wanted.

Taibai Yunsheng is old and has a short lifespan. It is human nature to want to use longevity Gu to increase his lifespan.

But if he really got this longevity Gu, he would definitely not risk becoming an immortal. Don’t take the risk to become immortal. Then there will be no reaction between heaven and earth on the way to immortality, causing the world of Immortal Gu to remain the same.

Without Jiangshan Rugu Gu, what can Fang Yuan do to save Danghun Mountain, which is about to completely disappear?

Especially these days. More information came out: Taibai Yunsheng broke through the barrier, tried many times, and found hope. He did not hesitate to give Hei Loulan credit, and even agreed to let Hei Loulan join the Hei family as a condition for becoming the elder of the family with a different surname.

As a result, Taibai Yunsheng used the funds from the Hei family to recruit a large number of good people. The lineup is huge, breaking into the 55th floor for the final impact.

Although in memory. In his previous life, Taibai Yunsheng took risks and became immortal.

But Fang Yuan was cautious and did not dare to take risks, so he decided to personally intervene.

Time waits for no one.

Fang Yuan originally planned to deal with Mo Yao's will first, and he must first calm down the enemy. But there has been no progress on the matter. Now he has no choice but to use the poster's order. Sneak into the fifty-fifth floor.

The situation on the fifty-fifth floor has been figured out by Taibai Yunsheng.

A magnificent river of blood flows here, and deep in the river stands a majestic Blood Palace.

There are three main halls and sixty-nine auxiliary halls in the Blood Path Palace.

Every palace has a large number of blood Gu insects and blood beast guards.

The blood channel Gu worms swarm in groups and are powerful. But as long as it takes time, it is consumed one after another. There is always a time to slaughter them all.

The trouble is the blood beast.

These blood beasts, after being beheaded, will draw blood and resurrect within a short time. It can be said that killing is not enough, and beheading is endless.

Taibai Yunsheng's several attempts to break through all failed on these blood beasts.

But in the last attempt, he accidentally discovered to his surprise that as long as he charged all the way into the deepest part of the palace and took off the token hanging on the main beam, the blood beasts in the palace could disappear on their own.

This discovery gave Taibaiyun a strong sense of confidence. He was so poor that he did not hesitate to sell himself to the black family, borrow funds, and raise a team of Gu masters to attack this level.

When Fang Yuan secretly entered this level, the team led by Taibai Yunsheng had already passed through the thirty-three auxiliary halls and was engaged in a fierce battle in the majestic main hall.

Fang Yuan took out the Hexagonal Building Master's Token, and with a thought, this floor fell completely under his control in an instant.

The Hexagonal Tower Master Order allows Fang Yuan to control the six floors of the True Yang Tower.

Fang Yuan once used an opportunity to control the seventh level. Now use the second chance to take control of the fifty-fifth floor.

Hei Loulan has a building master order in his hand, and he controls the fifth floor.

With a thought in his mind, Fang Yuan suddenly disappeared from the spot and appeared on the main beam of the main hall the next moment.

He sat comfortably and leisurely on the main beam. Not far from him was the key token.

Holding his breath and concentrating, the scene of Taibai Yunsheng and others fighting appeared in Fang Yuan's heart.

The deeper you go into the main hall, the more blood beast guards there are, and the battle is fierce. Taibai Yunsheng's team has less than fifty people left.

They advanced all the way, suffering heavy casualties and leaving a large number of corpses along the way.

The two powerful rank five Gu Masters, Zhu Zai and Gao Yang, took turns replacing each other and acting as the arrows for the team's charge.

Taibai Yunsheng, as the number one healing Gu master in Beiyuan this time, was protected by everyone in the center of the team. He kept using the human-like Gu, and the white light shot out, shining on the dead bodies to revive the Gu master, or shining on the living people, restoring their injuries and restoring their true energy instantly.

But even though Taibai Yunsheng was at the peak of rank five, he was still in a miserable state.

Members of the team kept falling, and although he tried his best, he couldn't save them all.

Endless blood beasts surged out from the corridors and rooms in the main hall, and piled up densely on the path forward of the team.

The closer to the key token, the more powerful the blood beast becomes.

In particular, blood beasts can absorb blood, recover quickly, and constantly regenerate.

Taibai Yunsheng and others rushed here, and the blood beasts killed behind them reborn again. They chased them, blocking them in front and chasing after them. The situation became more and more critical for everyone.

"No wonder Taibai Yunsheng wanted to take the risk of ascending to immortality in the previous life. This level is quite difficult, unless a blood path Gu master takes action." Fang Yuan controls this level, and sees Taibai Yunsheng's behavior as if he were observing patterns on the palm of his hand.

This level is no different than a fairyland for the Blood Path Gu Master. There are a large number of blood path wild Gus that can be tamed, and there are pure blood beasts that can be eaten to increase blood path cultivation.

Unfortunately, the blood path cannot be tolerated in the world. Because of the blood sea ancestor, once a blood path Gu master appears, he will immediately be vigorously pursued by the righteous path.

Because blood-path combat power can be achieved quickly, even demon-path Gu masters are generally afraid of it.

Often once a blood path Gu master is discovered. Not only will he be chased by the righteous, but he will also be secretly attacked by the evil Gu Master.

There is not a single blood path Gu master among the Hei family's army. Even if there is. It is also hidden deep enough that it will not be used by Taibai Yunsheng.

After Fang Yuan probed for a moment, he knew that Taibai Yunsheng's hope of success was already very slim.

Most of the worries in my heart disappeared immediately.

Fang Yuan lay on the beam and took out "The Biography of Human Ancestors" from his body while playing time. While paying attention to Taibai Yunsheng's movements.

If you try to break into the Eighty-Eight-Jiao Zhenyang Tower, people will die.

Fang Yuan wanted to plot the world as if it were Gu, so of course he couldn't let Tai Bai Yunsheng die now.

"Kill over. We must fight our way out of the encirclement! Otherwise we will all die!" Taibai Yunsheng, his face covered in blood, shouted at the top of his lungs to boost morale.

A bloody beast roared and roared. Like a huge bloody wave. Coming towards everyone.

There was peace in the main hall.

Fang Yuan leisurely opened the pages of the book in his hand and adjusted his posture so that he could lie down more comfortably.

Roar!

A blood beast, with the head of a tiger and the body of a horse, charged into the Gu Master and bit into it crazily.

The two Gu Masters who were attacked were killed and one injured.

"People are the same as before!" Taibai Yunsheng shouted and raised his palm. A ray of white light suddenly shot out, shining on the injured person.

The Gu Master in hand. Immediately return to the state of the previous moment. The horrific injuries caused by the blood beast disappeared.

The wounded man was breathing heavily and was in shock, so he retreated to the inner perimeter for the time being. The defensive holes he left were immediately filled by others.

But the body of the Gu Master who died in the battle was swarmed by the surrounding blood beasts and roughly dragged out.

Taibai Yunsheng did not take action.

If you are not an immortal, even if you are a rank five Gu Master, your true energy is limited and you need to use it carefully.

Moreover, the dead Gu Master suffered serious losses of Gu insects, especially the defensive Gu that was penetrated and destroyed. Even if he is saved, he will be killed again.

The remaining Gu Masters cursed in pain and could only watch helplessly as the bodies of their companions were being eaten crazily by dozens of blood beasts.

Blood beasts are extremely sensitive to blood, and the smell of blood will drive them crazy. They grow stronger by devouring the blood of powerful creatures.

Soon, all the blood from the dead Gu Master's body was drained, and the entire body turned into a mummy, tattered and miserable.

The blood beasts that absorbed his blood began to look like humans. Some pupils turned into human pupils. Some sprouted several human ears, while others developed flexible human arms.

But thanks to the time wasted by them swallowing the corpse, Taibai Yunsheng and others' pressure suddenly decreased, and they took the opportunity to rush forward, taking dozens of steps forward.

Fang Yuan turned the "Human Ancestor Biography" in his hand to Chapter 3, Section 14.

Beiming Bingpo rescued his second sister Gu Yue Yinhuang, and the two once again asked for advice on how to save their father.

Thought Gu said: "People, the Mountain of Success and Failure has disappeared. I don't know when or where it will be re-formed. I don't know about other ways to save your father. But don't be discouraged. You can ask Wisdom Gu for help. Ask. I am its mother, and wisdom is the fruit of thought."

Green comes from blue and is better than blue. Things that Thought Gu doesn't know may not be known by Wisdom Gu.

Beiming Bingpo and Gu Yue Yinhuang found the Wisdom Gu under the guidance of the Thought Gu.

Wisdom Gu and Ren Ancestor had a problem. Back then, Ren Ancestor used Rules Gu to capture Wisdom Gu. But in the end he was escaped by wisdom Gu.

At first, Wisdom Gu was not willing to help Beiming Bingpo and Gu Yue Yinhuang.

But seeing that the two of them were introduced by their mother's thought Gu, they reluctantly said: "Humans, I can give you some guidance. But I need compensation. One of you needs to leave your middle age to me."

"I'll leave the middle age to you." Gu Yue Yinhuang said immediately without hesitation.

She was awakened by her younger brother Beiming Bingpo, and was given the meaning of life, which was to save her father Renzu. Therefore, answer at this time without hesitation.

Beiming Bingpo couldn't compete with his sister, so he had to let her devote her middle age.

This means that as soon as Gu Yue Yinhuang's youth passes, he will directly skip middle age and enter old age.

But in order to save her father, she didn't care so much.

Wisdom Gu got hold of Gu Yue's gloomy middle-aged man and gave her guidance: "In the center of the golden desert in the west, there is a still sapphire ocean, calm and smooth as a mirror. It is the source of all things and the life of the whole world. They all come from there. And in the depths of the blue sea, there are many, many Life Gu. They illuminate everything in the world. Go dive into the sea, and if you can find a human-shaped Life Gu, bring it ashore. This piece of human-shaped life Gu can give your father new life. But you must pay attention to the time, it cannot exceed a quarter of an hour, otherwise you will be assimilated by the blue sea."

At the end, Wisdom Gu added: "It is very difficult to find a human-shaped Life Gu. Only those who truly understand the true meaning of life can do it. If you can't do it, don't blame my method for not working."

What else does Gu Yue Yinhuang want to ask. As a result, the wisdom Gu flew away as soon as he spoke, without giving the siblings any chance.

Noisy roars and ghostly screams rushed into the eardrums.

The blood beasts were rolling in like a tidal wave. Taibai Yunsheng and others are like rocks. Resist the attacks of the blood beast time and time again. At the same time, we moved forward step by step.

"Come on, we are only 300 steps away from the main hall gate!" someone shouted to boost morale.

"Be careful!" Suddenly, the Gu Master beside him shouted a warning.

The Gu Master who was encouraging morale was stunned for a moment when he was hit hard by a blood beast with the body of a bear and the head of a dragon.

boom.

The Gu Master was hit so hard that his sternum was shattered in an instant, and a mouthful of blood mixed with broken internal organs spat out.

His body flew out. The Gu Master behind him tried his best to stop him, and the formation was in chaos for a while. It is in danger of falling apart!

"Hold on, hold on!" Taibai Yunsheng yelled with bloodshot eyes, extremely anxious.

In such a battle situation, once the Gu Masters disperse, they will immediately be torn into pieces by countless blood beasts around them. Only when Gu masters work closely together can they have a chance of survival!

However, the Gu Masters were retreating steadily, and a large number of blood beasts broke through the defense line and attacked fiercely.

For a time, screams broke out one after another.

Many Gu Masters are still trying their best to restore their true energy. Caught off guard, he was torn into pieces by the blood beast.

A mantis-like blood beast, waving its arm with a sickle, rushed to the front.

brush!

A Gu Master was beheaded directly by it, and a fountain of blood spurted from his neck. The big head was rushed high into the sky. Before it could fall, it was caught by the blood beast flying in mid-air, and swallowed with a roar.

But the hot red blood fell down and splashed onto Taibai Yunsheng's face.

Taibai Yunsheng quickly stretched out his hand and reluctantly opened his eyes. The rich smell of blood was pungent and unpleasant, and it even aroused a roar of blood beasts.

"It's over!" Taibai Yunsheng's heart sank to the bottom of the valley. At this moment, a figure like a tiger descended from the mountain and swooped over.

Boom boom boom.

After a few confrontations, the attackers killed the mantis blood beast, and at the last moment, the formation was able to stabilize.

It's Zhu Zai!

After all, he is a rank five Gu Master, a famous expert in the demonic path! !

Everyone was saved by him, as if pulled back from the edge of the cliff.

But Zhu Zai also paid a price. There were three new wounds on his body, all of which were deep enough to show the bones.

Seeing this, Taibai Yunsheng quickly urged Ren Ruzhu to provide treatment.

Zhu Zai returned to his previous state, the new injuries disappeared, and at the same time, the real energy that had just been violently consumed also increased again.

It's just that he just broke out in combat, and the few consumption Gu he used were really wasted.

People remain the same, it can only target the human body and has no effect on other Gu insects.

"This person is still the same. The effect is indeed amazing, but it's a pity that he can't do it to himself." Fang Yuan sighed and turned his attention to the book in his hand.

Gu Yue Yinhuang and Beiming Bingpo trekked through the golden desert and saw the blue sea in the middle of the desert.

The blue sea is so beautiful.

As Wisdom Gu said, no matter how strong the wind is, it cannot stir up the slightest wave in the blue sea.

Wrapped in the surrounding soft golden sand, it is like a dark blue gemstone, quietly inlaid on this piece of golden silk.

The siblings dived into the seabed, and sure enough they found that the depths of the seabed were densely covered with life Gu.

These life Gu are like sapphires. But they come in different sizes and shapes.

Some are like colts, some are like tigers and leopards, some are like eagles and doves, and some are like snakes and dragons.

The siblings searched carefully and were dazzled. I have seen various forms of Life Gu, such as flowers, birds, fish, insects, birds and animals, snowmen, furry people, etc., but I can't find the Life Gu in human form.

In desperation, the siblings had no choice but to get out of the sea and return to the shore.

Just after leaving the blue sea, the deer-shaped Life Gu played in the hands of his younger brother Beiming Bingpo suddenly bloomed with a soft brilliance. Jump onto the sand and transform into a deer.

This is the birth of life!

The siblings looked at this scene in surprise, their eyes widening.

Until the deer jumped far away. Sister Gu Yue Yinhuang suddenly had an epiphany: "No wonder Wisdom Gu said those last words and flew away without letting us ask any more questions. I understand the true meaning of life."

"What is the true meaning of life?" Beiming Bingpo asked hurriedly.

Gu Yue Yinhuang pointed at the blue sea in front of him and asked: "You said, if we really find a life Gu, it is a human-shaped sapphire. We take it out. What will it become?"

Beiming Bingpo thought for a moment and replied: "Just like that little deer, let's turn it into a real living life."

Speaking of which. He suddenly froze.

Gu Yue Yinhuang looked at him with a smile: "It seems you understand. We are this kind of life. We are the transformation of life Gu! We ourselves are sapphires in human form!"

Beiming Bingpo completely understood, where do people come from?

Wisdom Gu has made it clear before: this blue ocean is the source of all things, and all life in the world comes from this.

People, of course, come from this.

Their father Renzu. It was once a sapphire on the bottom of the sea. By chance. He came out of the sea, formed a living life, wandered in the world, struggled to survive, and got to where he is now.

But man is the spirit of all things. How many human-shaped sapphires are there in the huge blue sea?

There is a very small number, and it is very possible that there is only one human ancestor.

I want to find a small sapphire in such a vast ocean. What a huge project this is!

This is simply compared to Gu Yue Yinhuang searching for the only success Gu on the Mountain of Success and Failure. It’s thousands of times more difficult.

"I know there is a way to get the humanoid life Gu as quickly as possible." Gu Yue Yinhuang suddenly said.

"What method?" Beiming Bingpo suddenly had a bad premonition.

Gu Yue Yinhuang smiled slightly: "Then let me sink to the bottom of the sea, assimilate with this blue sea, and return to life Gu again."

Although Gu Yue Yinhuang became a monster, he was still a human being in essence.

The essence of life has not changed.

Since it is a human being, once it is assimilated, it will form a human-shaped sapphire-like life Gu.

This speculation is not wrong.

No wonder Wisdom Gu said: Pay attention to the time, it cannot exceed a quarter of an hour, otherwise you will be assimilated by the blue sea.

None of what Wisdom Gu said was nonsense.

Wisdom Gu added: If you can't do it, don't blame my method for not working.

From the analysis of this sentence - it is very likely that there are no humanoid sapphires in the blue ocean. If the siblings were unwilling to sacrifice themselves, they would not be able to find the humanoid life Gu. In this case, don't blame my wisdom Gu, it's just that you can't do it.

"No, sister, you can't sacrifice yourself like this." Beiming Bingpo quickly stopped her.

Although he wanted to save his father, he was not willing to sacrifice his own sister.

"I can. The meaning of my life is to save my father." Gu Yue Yinhuang replied calmly.

Beiming Bingpo was suddenly speechless.

It was he who gave Gu Yue Yinhuang the meaning of life, and Gu Yue Yinhuang lived for this. In other words, if she saves her father, then her life is meaningless, so what is the point of continuing to live?

As long as he sacrifices himself, he can save his father. This is really the greatest meaning of Gu Yue Yinhuang's life!

"Human beings are gems in the world. But whether the gems are bright or not, we need to carve them ourselves. Every effort and every choice we make is a carving."

"And people can only gain life by giving their lives."

After Gu Yue Yinhuang finished speaking leisurely, he sank into the blue sea.

Beiming Bingpo tried his best to stop it, but he couldn't stop it. Gu Yue Yinhuang became a monster and was so powerful that he was no match.

More than a quarter of an hour later, Gu Yue Yinhuang was assimilated by the blue sea and turned into a human-shaped sapphire.

But this sapphire is not a healthy human form, but a small part of it is missing.

This is because before, Gu Yue Yinhuang traded his "middle age" to Wisdom Gu.

People often spend half of their lives before they understand what life is.

Beiming Bingpo left the golden desert with the sapphire in tears.

Instead of the joy of success, he fell into great guilt.

In a way, he killed his sister.

"There are still fifty steps left!" Taibai Yunsheng roared with all his strength.

After a difficult advance, companions fell down every moment. The fierce battle left only five Gu Masters around him!

But success is just around the corner!

"Try harder..."

"I will tear these blood beasts into pieces!!"

Zhu Zai and Gao Yang, one on the left and one on the right, were guarding Taibai Yunsheng, and they also shouted to boost morale.

Thirty steps!

The two fell down, leaving only Taibai Yunsheng, Zhu and Gao.

The bloody beasts around them were baring their teeth and claws, looking ferocious and terrifying. They come one after another, hundreds and thousands, endlessly.

Ten steps!

Zhu Zai and Gao Yang tried their best, but the Gu insects suffered heavy losses due to excessive stimulation, and their true energy had bottomed out.

"I swear that you two will be greatly rewarded for your kindness in the future!" Taibai Yunsheng's eyes shone, and his tone was extremely sincere.

"Old gentleman, what are you talking about! You were the one who saved us back then. Without the old gentleman, we wouldn't be where we are today!"

"The old gentleman's life-saving grace is as heavy as a mountain! Even if we die today, we must repay your kindness."

Gao Yang and Zhu Zai replied emotionally.

There are also hypocrites in the righteous way, and there are not true heroes in the evil way!

Five steps!

"Save me!" Zhu Zai yelled, and rushed forward, regardless of defense, and perished together with the blood beast blocking the road ahead.

Taibai Yunsheng stretched out his palm, but he couldn't spur the white light.

He shouted out loud: "No, my true energy is exhausted!"

This bad news made Gao Yang's face turn pale instantly.

Taibai Yunsheng has always been the core. Only with the constant support of Gu Gu could everyone advance so deeply.

"It doesn't matter, no blood beast dares to enter the main hall. As long as I enter the main hall and recover quickly, Zhu Zai can still be saved!" Taibai Yunsheng yelled again.

Gao Yang cheered up.

Taibai Yunsheng was right. Although the blood beast tore into corpses, it mainly sucked blood. As long as most of the body is still there, there is hope of saving Zhu Zai.

Roar!

The next moment, a powerful blood beast like a giant python suddenly sprang out from behind, opened its bloody mouth, and swallowed Gao Yang in one gulp.

Two steps!

The gate of the main hall was within easy reach, and Taibai Yunsheng, covered in scars, staggered out of the gap between the blood beasts.

At the critical moment, he mobilized the last of his precious true energy to prop up a piece of golden armor to withstand many attacks for him.

arrive!

"Only when people sacrifice their lives can they gain life. Gao Yang, Zhu Zai, I will remember your sacrifices!" Taibai Yunsheng exerted all his strength and pushed open the main hall door.

He suddenly fell down in the main hall. The blood beast behind him roared and roared, baring its teeth and claws, but he did not dare to lean forward and enter the main hall.

Just like Taibai Yunsheng's previous exploration.

Taibai Yunsheng collapsed on the ground without any strength. The wounds all over his body continued to cause severe pain.

He took a few deep breaths and suddenly burst out laughing, his laughter mixed with cries.

He burst into tears.

"This level has three main halls and sixty-nine auxiliary halls! If you clear them all within the specified time, you will get a high-level clearance. Clearing two main halls and forty-six auxiliary halls is a medium rating. I cleared one main hall. The palace and the twenty-three auxiliary palaces can only get low-level clearance. But I got the longevity Gu!"

"Fifteen years of longevity Gu can add fifteen years to my life. Fifteen years..."

Taibai Yunsheng was sighing with emotion when suddenly his vision went dark and he fainted. (To be continued...)
