"Based on this, I think our life will be more comfortable like this." Lin Hui followed Seven Extinctions's words.
"Of course, that's why we have the largest number, but not everyone like us can be accepted by disasters. If you want to integrate, it depends on whether you have the qualifications and strength." Seven Extinctions said with a smile.
"That's right." Lin Hui nodded. Those who can actively integrate disasters, he has seen, almost all are the best from all over the world.
Looking at the scissors in Seven Extinctions's hand and the imitation grapes beside him, he suddenly had a new question.
"Since Fusionist has so many benefits, why do those people have to risk their lives to resist or escape? There must be many extremely powerful people among them, right?"
"One is a matter of philosophy. The other is independence." Seven Extinctions heard this, and the smile on his face slowly faded.
"Autonomy?"
"Yes, everything about us will inevitably be affected by disaster after the integration. The only thing we can keep is ourselves. The rest, whether we like it or not, can only drift with the tide." Seven Extinctions seemed to have thought of something, and his smile gradually disappeared.
In fact, at this time, the purpose of Lin Hui's coming has been achieved. He knows the type of disaster behind Xue Shi, how to deal with it, and the situations he may face in the future.
But looking at Seven Extinctions's expression at this time, he suddenly had new curiosity.
"Since I also belong to the Fusionist of the future, what will the real daily life of a Fusionist as powerful as Seven Extinctions be like?"
With such curiosity, he did not take the initiative to leave.
Just waiting.
After Seven Extinctions came to his senses, he started chatting with him again and again.
But not long after, Seven Extinctions looked up at the sky.
The color of the sky here is actually a slight change in the Wind Disaster torrent outside.
The torrent of blue light Wind Disaster is rushing over this building complex all the time.
From Lin Hui's point of view, no changes can be seen at all, but in fact Seven Extinctions seems to be able to see subtle clues.
"Alright, good disciple, if you have nothing to do, go to practice, or go looking for resources to hunt. Our reason requires a lot of cognition to make up for the consumption. This is like a mortal eating and drinking. Even though you just ate a big one, you still have to prepare for future consumption."
Seven Extinctions smiled.
"After all, being sober requires a price. And the stronger the strength, the more the price is."
"Then, disciple, I will leave first."
Lin Hui clasped his fists in salute, bowed, and then left.
"You can come in and stay here at will. This is the Nine Heavens Gate station specially opened for the division. But remember, before anything happens in your hometown, go there and stay." Seven Extinctions warned before leaving.
Lin Hui heard the meaning, responded seriously, and flew out of the yard.
He did not leave immediately, but flew around the Nine Heavens Gate site and visited each building one by one.
The Sutra transmission hall was empty, but the faint sound of women preaching sutras could be heard in the air from time to time.
In the Medicine King Hall, the fire in the alchemy furnace is blazing, burning automatically even without fuel, and the slightest scent of medicine permeates the surroundings. There is also no one there.
There are some special buildings that look like they are shining with dark blue fluorescent light. I don't know what they are used for. They are all empty inside, but from time to time, the sound of someone talking and chatting can be heard.
Lin Hui couldn't understand the language of the voice, so he simply listened to the voice in the lobby of a building for a while, but after listening for a long time, he didn't notice the repetition.
Finally, he came to a huge rotating blue light wheel.
This round wheel seems to be a giant teleportation array leading to an unknown place.
It is composed of three blue-gold rings nested in layers.
The three round wheels each rotate at different speeds and directions.
Not far from the edge, there is a stone tablet with the name and records of this place engraved in white letters on a black background.
Lin Hui couldn't understand the words here, but he soon remembered something. He closed his eyes and recalled the memory instilled by Blood Seal.
A large number of memories about Nine Heavens Gate quickly emerged in the depths of the mind, and the words and languages they used also resurfaced at this time, beginning to form a systematic fusion of Lin Hui's language system.
After about a few minutes, he opened his eyes again and looked at the stone tablet. Sure enough, he understood what it meant.
"Heaven-Turning Wheel: Built in Fengli 1792. It can be used to connect the hometowns of various gatekeepers.
Under the stone tablet, in addition to the formal engraved name, there are other lines of slightly scrawled messages, some of which are blurred, and some of which can barely be distinguished.
Lin Hui walked over and looked down.
...Zhenyu World: Destroyed in the 53rd year of Disaster Energy's existence."
"Xie Xiangrong World: Destroyed in the 119th year of Disaster Energy's existence."
"Dongxiang Qian World: Destroyed 201 years after Disaster Energy appeared."
"Chen Xueping World: Destroyed 32 years after Disaster Energy was alive."
The rows seemed to be realms named after the disciples' names. The destruction records were arranged one by one on the stone tablets, all engraved with very small handwriting. Lin Hui stretched out his hand and gently touched the edge of the upper right corner of the stone tablet, which had already been stroked extremely smooth by someone who had done the same thing as him.
"Do you want to connect your world to this place?" Suddenly an old voice came from beside him.
Lin Hui looked sideways and found an old man in black sitting cross-legged on the ground beside Heaven-Turning Wheel.
He was wearing a large cloak that seemed to be woven with some kind of black feathers, or it should be called a raincoat. At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged on the ground, and from a distance, he looked more like a prostrate black giant bird.
"Who are you?" Lin Hui asked.
"Don't forget to leave your name... otherwise you won't be able to remember where they are or what they are before long..." The old man seemed not to have heard what he said and was still talking to himself.
Lin Hui stopped talking, just looked at him and listened to his mumbling.
After listening for a while, he found that the other party would only repeat these sentences over and over again, and he lost interest.
Let's call this old man Black Elder. He finally flew out along the exit of the station.
This Nine Heavens Gate station is almost as big as a small town, but only two people, Seven Extinctions and Black Elder, exist in it. The rest of the place is empty.
Not just any place inside can be freely entered and exited from above. Invisible transparent barriers are arranged above many places, and one can only follow the rules of entering and exiting from the gate.
Lin Hui flew out of the station and looked back from a distance to see the station in the torrent of Wind Disaster.
Between the hollowed-out peaks, the surrounding suspended ellipse has a flat center, like a huge tired eye. It is obscured by the blowing Wind Disaster torrent from time to time.
Suddenly, a deep feeling of loneliness emerged from the bottom of my heart and flowed throughout Lin Hui's body.
At this moment, he suddenly understood why Seven Extinctions was obsessed with rebuilding Nine Heavens Gate...
Maybe... except for Nine Heavens Gate, he has no other memories to lose...
Turning around, Lin Hui resolutely flew out of the crack, and sealed it with Wind Disaster with his backhand, quickly closing the crack slowly and closing it.
After Xue Shi disappeared, Lin Hui took some time to drive all the Wind Disaster monsters he released into the heaven.
Then he returned to the human world. It seemed that after Xue Shi disappeared, the previous situation of various weird events that continued to occur was quickly alleviated. There were fewer and fewer weird events, and the number of cases of monsters mutating after Decay also began to decrease.
Only then did Lin Hui understand that after Decay, he would not necessarily become a monster like Blood Eye Blood Body.
He continued to stay in New Republic for two years. After confirming that the Decay monsters appeared less and less, he caught some monsters that had mutated into Decay and observed them carefully.
It turned out that these monsters were doing nothing on their own, and were slowly shedding, decomposing, and becoming weaker and weaker.
He could observe that the Qi of Decay on the monster was gradually dissipating. It did not disappear, but dispersed. It no longer condensed into a ball and gathered in its body.
Without the condensed energy of Decay, these monsters seemed to have lost their most fundamental motivation, and soon turned into corpses one after another and returned to the earth. In order to observe whether Decay had truly returned to normal, Lin Hui returned to China and stayed quietly in the mountain sword hall, living a life of seclusion in the mountains with Wu Anning.
Occasionally I quietly go out for inspections, and get together with my parents during holidays.
The lifeless state before was completely gone.
The only troublesome thing is that the medicine that shortens Blood Seal is still ineffective for me.
We can only wait slowly for time to pass.
Before you know it, another fifteen years have passed in the blink of an eye.
New Republic is developing in full swing, the national strength is increasing day by day, and people's lives are getting better day by day.
There are more and more food options to choose from, and the colors of clothing are becoming more and more bright.
The means of transportation on the streets have gradually transitioned to various types of vehicles instead of mainly oxcarts, horses, donkeys and mules.
Lin Hui occasionally goes out on weekdays, leaves the world, and goes to Black Domain to check the situation in the heaven and practice sword skills at the same time.
Most of the rest of the time is spent in the human world enjoying the last stable life.
Having experienced the past once, he understood that there was not much time left for his relatives and disciples.
"Is this right here, Dad?"
Outside the Pine Breeze Sword Hall, on a stone path in the mountain forest, a father and daughter, wearing canvas camouflage uniforms worn by ordinary tourists, climbed all the way along the path. "Well. In front of you is the place where your father and I, the teachers who used to learn martial arts and swords, lived in seclusion. Over the past few years, I have come here every New Year. Let's get together with the teacher." There was a trace of vicissitudes on the face of the tall and tall man at this time. He was Xie Tieniu who left the sword hall and went out to pursue his career. At that time, Steel Ox had a much calmer temperament.
The fourteen-year-old girl with a round face and full of collagen on the side is his current daughter Xie Huaiyin.
"I brought you here this time. If you are lucky enough, you may be able to join the teacher and learn swordsmanship when the time comes."
"What age are you in? Dad, no matter how good you are at swordsmanship, who can stop the bombardment of planes, missiles and artillery shells with just a sword?" the little girl Xie Huaiyin said helplessly.
"I was injured on the battlefield, and my swordsmanship level dropped significantly, but the teacher is different..." Xie Tieniu sighed.
Every time he said this, he would show a look of great regret.
If I could have stayed properly and studied with the teacher, maybe.
Daughter Xie Huaiyin still doesn't quite believe it. As a new generation who grew up watching various modern weapons on TV, it's hard for her to understand that her father would praise a cold weapon so much.
The two of them walked forward, with the father feeling like a pilgrim, while the daughter felt like she was hiking up a mountain with her father.
Not long after, the two passed through a mountain col and crossed a lush rapeseed field.
Finally, I saw a small gray-white courtyard ahead.
There is a high wall covered with dark green vines on the periphery of the courtyard. In the middle of the wall, there is a half-open courtyard door. At this time, a tall and burly woman with short hair is standing in front of the door with a gentle expression, welcoming the visitors who enter the courtyard one by one.
"That's your Aunt Xuezhen!" Xie Tieniu immediately saw another beautiful woman in front of her who was also preparing to enter the courtyard.
The woman has a mature and gentle temperament, wearing a pure white dress and trousers, pearl earrings, and a white long sword at her waist.
It is the core disciple Liu Xuezhen who has never been married.
After joining the sword gym that year, she initially pursued Lin Hui but failed, and later did not accept her father's arrangement, but lived alone. After New Republic was established, she also entered the government department, and now she has climbed up step by step, already reaching the position second only to her father, and has become the second person in the family.
And it seems that because of practicing swordsmanship, after fifteen years of ups and downs, these people have only changed more in temperament, and their physiology seems to be only slightly mature.
