Chapter 194: The End
[There is no fate in this world. I hate the injustice of heaven. I struggle to cross, struggle to cross.]

【Jueqingdu——End】

[Love is hard to overcome, but the road ahead is long. 】

【Forgotten River Crossing——End】

[There is no one like you in this world, and there is no one like you in this world.]

[Wushuangdu——End]

【Who sent a greeting card to heaven and earth, and the stormy times will bring disaster. 】

[After crossing the barrier of love three times, the heart is easily corrupted, and after a hundred strikes, the hegemony will be destroyed. 】

【Chaos Post - End】

Reminders echo in my ears and memories flash back in my mind.

"After crossing the hurdle of love three times, the heart is easily corrupted. After a hundred strikes on the prairie fire, the hegemony is over! This life ends just like that..." Song Lin sighed slightly, feeling a sense of loss in his heart.

ended.

The magician is dead, and Li Yixiu is blown away by the wind.

Both have disappeared in the long river of time, leaving behind only legends and no trace of them.

He took a deep breath.

Suppressing the complicated emotions, he looked at the reincarnation destiny plate.

[You reversed yin and yang, turned the world upside down. You changed history in a small area, passed the test of love, stepped into the rivers and lakes, broke the world, and fought the magician...]

[After going through many disasters and struggles, he finally joined hands with the Three Supreme Demons on the Black Water Ocean, assisted Li Yixiu, and defeated the magician with a prairie fire, reversing part of his destiny.]

[A prairie fire can easily turn into a decaying fire. 】

【Running water never stale, life never ends. 】

[Evaluation of this world: Heavenly Fate Kirin]

[The wish of a person has been fulfilled, and he has obtained a wonderful destiny - Three Absolute Magic Skills·Wind and Cloud Kylin Golden Body (Azure)]

"Three ultimate magic skills?"

"The Golden Body of the Wind and Cloud Kylin? Where is it?"

Song Lin sat on the cold pond, touching left and right, and finally concentrating his mind and sensing himself, but found nothing.

It seems that he needs to acquire this skill by himself.

"Is it the golden body method that the magician finally comprehended? But his golden body is clearly the Three Elements Returning to One Dragon-Elephant Golden Body, right? It has nothing to do with the word 'Qilin'... I can't figure it out."

Song Lin usually doesn't think about things he can't figure out.

It was just like the picture of the spring water eye he left for Qing Yuanzi and the painting left by Song Chengfeng.

"Cry——" A shrill ghost cry was heard faintly in the distance.

Song Lin's heart trembled.

Subconsciously, he rushed towards that place and came to the place where the Xuanlin Bird was born.

result.

Still nothing.

"Is it the Black Priestess? Impossible. It must have died in the Black Ocean. Could the legend of the Ghost Phoenix really exist?"

"Something just feels wrong."

"Could it be that...something happened later that I don't know about?"

Song Lin pondered in his heart.

The reincarnation destiny plate says that he has changed history.

but.

Can history really be changed?

What should Ye Qingyun do?
Does the legend of his one night with the magician still exist in reality?

The mind sinks into the wheel of reincarnation.

Song Lin couldn't wait to start looking up the words of "end of catastrophe" in Ren Jue's previous life.

【It is difficult to change fate, life and death are determined by one’s heart. 】

[Life is long, and the road is long. Once the wind blows, everything will be gone. Just one sentence... Don't forget your original intention. ]

[History has changed its original course under your revision. Li Yixiu experienced the three disasters of Jueqing, Wangchuan, and Wushuang, and realized the three attacks of Qingcheng, Zongmie, and Wushuang, and fought against the magician and was evenly matched.]

【finally.】

[Two masters with unparalleled talents and abilities, each of them has reached a dead end. ]

[On the Blackwater Ocean, the peak battle. ]

[The three ultimate demon species merged into one, devouring destiny. The magician transcended the mundane world and realized the unparalleled fist. Li Yixiu looked back on his life and realized that time is ephemeral, so he dragged the magician back to the human world from heaven.]

【The world's ups and downs are created by our generation, and time flies by once we enter the world. 】

[The magician grew old in an instant, his youth was gone, he fell from his golden body to the divine palace, the energy, the thunder sound... he entered the twilight of his life and embarked on his final journey home.]

【But it is easy to decay. 】

[It also passed away in the years, drifted into the mortal world with the wind, waiting to rise in the next life. ]

【He succeeded. 】

【There are no regrets in life. 】

[Although you still failed to protect the last pure land in your heart in the end, you turned into a Binglin Ji and accompanied him on his journey home. ]

【But he has let go of everything and understood the meaning of life. 】

[In the last moment of his life, Li Yixiu looked towards the direction of Wuduan Mountain and silently made a wish: I hope that in the next life... we can still be master and apprentice! ]

"We will still be master and disciple in the next life..."

When Song Lin saw this, he couldn't help but smile, a very relieved smile.

He is really afraid.

I am afraid that Li Yixiu will still have a knot in his heart at the end of his life because of his death.

Been through so much.

In fact, he no longer cares whether he can pass the "Chaos Times Post" or not.

Compared to the life that I can live again.

The importance of Li Yixiu in his heart and the friendship between them have long surpassed anything else.

Again.

Is he still him?
Life is not a multiple-choice question.

Song Lin felt.

This is the meaning of the reincarnation destiny chart that allows one to enter one’s past life.

"Unfortunately, there are still some things I can't figure out." Song Lin looked at the Gate of Three Absolutes with his eyes flashing.

Human, demon, half-demon.

What exactly is Li Yixiu's identity? There is no reason why Jianzhai is so afraid of him.

Sadly, this life is over.

It seemed he was destined not to get an answer.

Suddenly.

The divine light of the Three Absolutes Gate bloomed, and three illusory figures gradually became clear.

Magician.

Ye Qingyun.

Li Yixiu.

Three unprecedented figures stood in front of him intact.

Song Lin's heart was shocked.

He saw clearly.

The face of the magician... was actually his own appearance!

Ye Qingyun is still Ye Qingyun.

And Li Yixiu... was covered in scales, with claws on his limbs, looking like both a human and a monster.

Half demon!

Li Yixiu’s bloodline...is actually half-demon!

Song Lin had thought about this possibility before.

But - from the first time they met to the last time they embarked on the journey of life, he had never seen Li Yixiu use the power of a half-demon.

Not even once...!

Why is that?
He is... limiting himself!
Song Lin's heart was shocked again, and he suddenly understood something.

What Jianzhai feared was Li Yixiu's identity. In their eyes, even if the magic master unified the martial arts world and dominated the world, he would never let Li Yixiu reach the top.

Half demon.

Humans and demons are abandoned by both, and heaven and earth will not tolerate them.

This is the pain that Li Yixiu has hidden throughout his life, the secret he is unwilling to mention.

Song Lin thought about it carefully, and gradually he understood.

Li Yixiu was unwilling to recognize his sister and took the initiative to leave Mu Qingcheng. He even had only one friend in his life, Wan Zongsheng.

His life is lonely.

Because he is a half-demon.

He actually... has low self-esteem.

"Master..."

Song Lin suddenly felt unprecedentedly aggrieved for Li Yixiu.

His life.

You've never used your half-demon power even once!
"If he practices as a half-demon and does not limit his potential, can he surpass the magician in twenty years? In fact... he is qualified to be the protagonist in this life, right?" Song Lin murmured in a low voice.

The answer, of course, is unknown.

No one can judge what has not happened.

Looking back on Li Yixiu’s life.

His paranoia, his madness...all arise from his natural bloodline.

The reason why he was wandering around in the underworld was probably because of some tragic things that happened to him. Song Lin finally understood why the one who chose the Half-Demon Gate corresponded to Li Yixiu, but he was destined to die.

Li Yixiu could not choose his birth or bloodline, but he could choose the path he wanted to take in his life.

He adhered to his inner persistence throughout his life. Even though he despaired countless times and even when facing a magician, he never pinned his hopes on his half-demon bloodline.

Therefore, he is a human being.

He used his entire life to change the fate of his next life.

Li Yixiu, who has half-demon blood, is the only one who has the fate of [human extinction] in this life.

"But...what's going on with the magician?"

Song Lin looked at the magician who had the same face as himself, and his heart was once again filled with shock.

Suddenly.

There are new items on the reincarnation destiny chart.

【On August 15, the legend spreads overnight. 】

[When Ye Qingyun arrived at the Black Water Ocean, he discovered an endless gushing water hole, venting countless water vapor.]

【The magician is gone.】

[The tens of thousands of people who were watching the battle disappeared without a trace.]

【then.】

[Ye Qingyun's face was completely confused.]

【He dived under the water eye and discovered a shocking secret. 】

[The Black Water Ocean Eye connects the Three Rivers, Nine Springs, and the Wuduan Sea. It is the outlet point of all the major water eyes, and it may also be... a key node for suppressing a certain existence. But because of the existence of Wuduan Mountain, the endless water vapor was suppressed. ]

[When the water vapor is stagnant, storms often sweep across the sea, with nowhere to vent. 】

[Over time, it became a fatal weakness in the great seal.]

[The magician has already discovered this. ]

[Faced with the increasing calamity of the Nine Springs demon, he chose to fight a peak battle with Ye Qingyun above the water eye.]

[Try to combine the two people's strength to break the water eye, release the pressure, and redirect the Jiuquan water eye. ]

[For the magician, all this is just a matter of convenience. ]

[There is no justice or evil in his heart, he is just doing what he wants to do. ]

【He succeeded. 】

【But it was because of the battle with Li Yixiu. 】

【He also failed.】

[Because of his early death, the main force of the Tiandi Alliance was destroyed in the storm and tsunami, and many arrangements have not been completed. 】

[If the water eye is allowed to erupt, the entire Three Rivers and Nine Springs will be submerged in endless water vapor. ]

[Ye Qingyun knew all this, but he was powerless to do anything.]

【It is difficult to change fate, life and death are determined by one’s heart. 】

[In the darkness, there seemed to be a hidden power. Ye Qingyun subconsciously looked towards Wuduan Mountain, but saw nothing.]

【then.】

[He lowered his eyes, and a mysterious figure appeared in the endless waters of the Black Ocean.]

【Magician.】

【Resurrected!】

[He seemed to be reborn, as if he had merged the power of the Three Absolute Demons, becoming stronger than ever before. His face was a mixture of Yang Tianrui, Han Qing, and Xuanlin Bird, constantly changing between old and young.]

【A stunning battle finally takes place. 】

[It’s a pity that no one will ever see this battle again. ]

【After this battle. 】

[The once prosperous Jiuquan Jianghu has also completely become a legend. Countless inheritances in the Jianghu have disappeared, and many high-ranking members of the sects have disappeared. From then on, they have never recovered and gradually disappeared into history...]

[Some people say... Ye Qingyun and the magician fought at their peak, both of them broke through the void, transcended the mundane world, and went to the mysterious "mountain". Because this place of heaven and earth cannot tolerate any power above the divine palace. ]

[Some people say... In fact, the person who left a legend overnight in the peak battle with the magician was actually the evil spirit Li Yixiu. The early departure of the two left Ye Qingyun with a lifelong regret...]

[Some people also say...]

[When I was fishing at the seaside, I saw the magician. He turned into a bird, then an immortal, then a unicorn... Finally, he flew to Wuduan Mountain and turned into an ordinary stone.]

[That was the punishment from heaven and earth for him, the price he paid for causing chaos in the martial arts world and going against heaven.]

【Three thousand years later, history has turned to dust. 】

[Even you, an eyewitness, cannot tell the truth of history.]

[In those great disasters, you saw through many people and many things, experienced the cycle of life and death again and again, and you even vaguely caught a glimpse of the meaning of time in Li Yixiu's last attack. ]

[But what you still don’t understand is——Destiny. 】

[At the beginning of each life, the eight words that run through the whole life - fate cannot be changed, life and death are determined by the heart. ]

"Has the magician really resurrected?"

Song Lin felt a sigh in his heart.

Is this the corrective force of history?

It seems that I have changed many people and many things, but in the big picture of history, nothing has actually changed.

The ultimate battle between the magician and Ye Qingyun still happened.

Three thousand years later, Shen Jian Yuan still exists.

He couldn't change the ending of the story.

The only thing that seems to have changed is... people's hearts.

At least.

In this eventful life, everyone has no regrets, right?
But...is it really so?

The reincarnation destiny plate suddenly gave Song Lin a picture.

A soft, plaintive song first floated into my ears, "I have passed by the falling geese and bamboos, and watched the moon rise and the sun set. You said that one day you would become famous and realize your ambitions. At that time, I lowered my head to wrap the new tassels around your sword, but I didn't hear your wish clearly..."

In the courtyard where snow is falling.

A woman wearing a mink coat sits quietly at a table and plays the piano.

The courtyard is not far away.

On an arch bridge covered with heavy snow.

The woman in Taoist robe stood quietly.

She held the sword, listening to the sound of the piano in the distance, wondering what she was thinking.

"Master, who are you waiting for?" A boy holding a small sword tugged at the corner of her clothes.

"I'm not waiting for anyone, and no one will come."

The nun spoke calmly.

The snow was falling heavily, and flakes of snow fell on her eyebrows.

"Pouring wine and drinking alone, the fine snow covers my eyebrows and eyes... the cold has penetrated into my bones. I still remember the beginning, when you pulled my sleeve and brushed it gently, saying with a smile... the snow melts like tears." The sound of singing floated in from afar.

"Then... who is she waiting for?" The boy pointed at the woman in the courtyard with a curious look on his face.

"The person she is waiting for will not come."

The Taoist nun's expression remained calm.

"Then why are you all here every year..." The boy tilted his head.

"Because we are waiting for someone, silly." The nun stroked the boy's hair and smiled gently.

"Master."

The boy asked, "Have you ever regretted it?"

"regret?"

The nun stretched out a hand in the heavy snow, as if trying to grab something.

But in the end... nothing was caught.

"Of course I don't regret it."

"At the end of the world, is there only loneliness? It's all my fault for being too obsessed and tying myself up in a web of dust..." Amid the distant singing, the woman's mood gradually became high, "The road ahead is too vast. If you ask where I should go, I should treat the way I came as the way home..."

PS:

[This is the second life I want to write about, the second kind of spiritual power.]

[It is not family, friendship, or love. It is something beyond family, friendship, and love. It is what many people in the underworld insist on throughout their lives and the meaning of their power.]

[It is not a knife, sword, or halberd, nor is it any kind of weapon or martial arts.]

【But——to protect. 】

[Protect the people you want to protect and the ones who are worth protecting. Even if there are regrets in life, I will never regret it. 】

【This is the meaning of protection. 】

【Looking back on Li Yixiu's life. 】

[Including Yang Chengde, Yang Chengen, Lu Wanqi, Zhao Wuxing, Chu Kuangsan, Xuanlin Bird, Miss Wangyou... and even Xie Muxue, who later understood her life goals, are all using their actions to protect the people in their hearts. ]

【There are three barriers to love, and life never ends. 】

【Time does not decay, but time does. 】

[So, when you understand this truth, you should look up at your parents, friends, lovers... those who are willing to give for you and protect you silently. ]

[And have you... protected them before? Will you be able to protect them in the future? ]

[When you truly understand this truth, you should be able to let go of your obsession and cherish the person in front of you. ]

【This is the Jianghu in my mind. 】

[Love, friendship, family affection...these are all too cliché. ]

[The martial arts world I want to write about should be born out of the three emotions, and above these three kinds of emotions, there is a power called "protection". ]

[I have never been imitating Mr. Gu Long, but I want to write a different world of martial arts for everyone. Although my ability is limited, I have tried my best. Just like him, her, and it in this world of martial arts...]

[Volume 2: Guardian - Written for those who are confused. ]

Also: I recommend going to Bilibili to watch the story version of the MV for [Mei Jian Xue], the one that’s 5 minutes and 45 seconds long.
