Book of Disaster

There seems to be a tiny crack in the center of the mark, like a gap between heaven and earth, revealing a mysterious atmosphere that transcends the mortal world.

Looking at this mysterious mark, the three of them felt the mysterious power in this golden mark. They were all stunned and fell into deep thought.

"Didn't you notice? I wanted to ask Zhu Zi before, but Zhu Zi asked me to find the answer myself. Obviously, he already knew the answer."

Bai Qi paused and continued.

"wrong!"

Suddenly, Xu Xuansu's eyes moved and he raised his head.

"Zhu Zi is not only an astonishing scholar, but everyone in the capital knows that he is also proficient in the art of innateness and the art of deduction. His attainments are extremely high, and they are completely different from the general theory of numerology. However, it is said that Zhu Zi rarely uses this ability."

"That's true."

Zhou Yixian quickly proved that he was from the Imperial Observatory and was very familiar with the information on the innate numerology:

"All the Heavenly Masters in our Imperial Observatory have great respect for Zhu Zi. They all say that Zhu Zi's attainments are very high, having reached the level of the old Heavenly Master. In addition, I've heard Heavenly Master Li mention this before. Confucianism has always had a saying that 'the cicada knows the coming of autumn before the wind blows'. Zhu Zi's insight is definitely far superior to that of ordinary people, even better than many sorcerers."

Xu Xuansu nodded and continued:

"I remember Zhu Zi said something before he left, which seemed to have a hidden meaning."

"He told you to never give up your beliefs. This will be the biggest help in your future. In other words, I think Zhu Zi already knows that you have lost the power of righteousness."

"But he also believes that the power is not simply gone, it is still in you, but you are unable to use it now. - The more powerful the power, the harder it is to master. You have just awakened, so this situation is probably only temporary. You should be able to master it completely in the future."

Xu Xuansu said.

"hope so."

Bai Qi said in a deep voice.

Several people thought about it for a long time but could not come up with any solution. They could only let it go and ignore it for the time being. Only Zhou Yixian stamped his feet and sighed.

Soon, everyone began to clean up the battlefield.

Before, Zhu Zi and the Dragon Emperor had fought a great battle, and the surrounding mountains were shattered. It was impossible to find the bodies of his fellow warriors. The only consolation was that Zhu Zi seemed to know the cause and effect of the whole incident and preserved Li Yi's body.

Seeing Li Yi, everyone couldn't help but feel sad again, and the atmosphere became much more solemn.

There were twenty or thirty people when we set out this time, but now there are only four left. In just one day, life and death were separated.

"Let's take his body back to the Southwest Training Base first, and then send it to the Li family. I will write a letter myself, and Zhang Chi, you can help me mail it when the time comes."

Bai Qi said with a sad look on his face. He loosened his hand and found the medal in Li Yi's doll spinning in his palm.

"Don't worry, sir. I will definitely handle this matter properly, and I will also let the Li family know why Brother Li died. Now that Black Dragon is dead, it can be regarded as a comfort to Brother Li's spirit in heaven."

……

Without saying anything more, everyone prepared to go home and return to the Southwest Training Base. However, a moment later, Bai Qi and others quickly disappeared in this sad place, and the powerful men in the sky dispersed, and this place became as quiet as before.

Time passed slowly. I didn't know how long it had been. When no one was paying attention to this place anymore -

Boom!

Accompanied by a storm-like thunder, the earth cracked and countless mountains shook. Deep underground, a thick blood light wrapped around something quickly rose into the sky.

If Bai Qi were here and saw the things in the blood, he would be shocked.

Because the figure in the blood was the one who was seriously injured by the black dragon before. In Bai Qi's subconscious, he was even affected by the battle between Dragon Emperor and others. Logically, he should have been dead.

His eyes were closed, his chest collapsed, and he was in a state of coma due to severe injuries. Only his slightly flaring nostrils showed that he was still breathing.

"How reckless and brainless! If it weren't for the fact that you are a member of the royal family, I would have let you perish here completely. However... I will spare your life for now. Maybe you will be useful to me in the future."

From the depths of the void, a strong and cold wave of consciousness was transmitted. The next moment, blood light shot up into the sky. The mysterious and powerful force, along with King Xiaojing who was wrapped in blood light, all sank into the depths of time and space and disappeared.

……

Time flies, and several days pass in the blink of an eye.

The fighting in the southwestern mountains was so loud that countless people had already noticed it and all kinds of rumors were flying around. However, the people involved, such as Bai Qi, Xu Xuansu, and Zhang Chi, remained silent, neither admitting nor denying the rumors.

Too many companions died in that battle, and Bai Qi and others had no intention of telling others about it in detail.

A few days later, Bai Qi was practicing in the tent when suddenly, there was a knock on the door from outside.

"who?"

"Sir, it's me, I'm here on your orders to give you something."

"come in."

Bai Qi frowned.

Soon, the curtain of the tent was gently lifted, and a soldier walked in cautiously, holding an exquisite wooden box in his hand, which exuded a strong medicinal fragrance.

The wooden box opened, revealing two pigeon egg-sized healing elixirs inside.

"Hehe, excuse me for interrupting you, General Long Wei heard that you were still injured, so he sent me to give you the Xuanling Juyuan Pill to help you heal faster and recover. This pill can also help you gather your energy, so that while you are healing your injuries, you can also make your internal energy more solid."

The soldier was cautious, bowing and scraping, and trying his best to be flattering.

Xu Xuansu and others who were practicing with Bai Qi in the tent all laughed secretly when they heard this.

The impact of that shocking battle in the Southwest was greater than anyone had imagined, and everyone felt it deeply when they returned to the Southwest training base that day.

General Long Wei, who used to be elusive and lived in seclusion in the hall and rarely showed up, unexpectedly appeared at the entrance of the camp, bringing a group of adjutants to greet them in advance. They were all smiling and had no airs at all.

To be more precise, they tried their best to curry favor with others and asked about their well-being along the way.

A group of 20 to 30 people went out on patrol, but only four came back. With so many people dead, it was a serious fault according to military law.

However, General Long Wei did not even mention it, but simply brushed it off and took the initiative to tell the military clerk that they sacrificed their lives for the country and died in the battle with the elite army of Dayu Kingdom, and he considerately recorded the merits of each person.

And things like today, where someone took the initiative to offer healing pills to them while they were practicing and recuperating from their injuries, were countless, and it was not the first time.
