Chapter 3436
"This little monk …" Xin Xin's eyes narrowed. She knew that Xiao Hua was at his wit's end. Although the Wishful Staff in his hand could break the heavy pressure, it could only treat the symptoms and not the root cause. Xiao Hua … was just drinking poison to quench his thirst. After this cycle, Xiao Hua's golden Buddha statue could not support it and his body could only end up as a meat paste.
Xin Xin clenched her teeth slightly and looked at the passage that had been flown nearly halfway. The end of the passage was already in sight, no longer as vague as before. "Should I turn back?" This was a rare thought in Xin Xin's heart …
At this time, Xiao Hua was also helpless. This time was really dangerous, unlike the previous time. He remembered that the last time the magic staff broke the restriction, the heavy pressure disappeared. This time, although the Wishful Staff was far more powerful than the magic staff, the restriction was one layer after another, each layer more powerful than the last, as if there was no end.
"Let's fight!"
Xiao Hua naturally also saw the golden brilliance of Xin Xin in the distance, and his mouth was bitter. "I don't know what this little girl's relationship with Princess Baihua is, but the protection of the Imperial Equipment is one after another. This is really embarrassing!"
While thinking, Xiao Hua waved the Wishful Staff again. The heavy pressure was pervasive, but the Wishful Staff was not to be trifled with. It could still break the restriction that formed the heavy pressure. Taking advantage of the fact that the restriction had not been broken yet, Xiao Hua's golden body was able to take the opportunity to escape.
Xin Xin naturally would not turn back at this time. She understood that although she had some means, everything was in vain before she could escape. She could not find a way, even if she went back, it would be in vain.
Therefore, Xin Xin urged her Zhen Qi again, and under the protection of the golden hairpin and the seven-star sword array, she rushed toward the end of the passage.
In the time it took to brew a cup of tea, the end was in sight. Xin Xin's heart finally relaxed. In her entire life, there had never been a period of time that was more torturous than the time it took to brew a cup of tea. There was also no distance that could compare to the distance of several hundred feet!
"Weng …" Just as Xin Xin saw a chance of survival, the entire passageway rumbled loudly again. A golden sun seemed to be born from the depths of the abyss, chasing after Xiao Hua from behind!
The golden light didn't disappear at all. The moment it entered Xin Xin's eyes, the golden light of the golden hairpin immediately swayed, and the brilliant phoenix flower instantly shrank by a lot.
Seeing the sudden change in front of her, Xin Xin had no time to think about anything else. She hurriedly stimulated her zhenqi and recklessly rushed forward. When the golden hairpin in Xin Xin's hand started to tremble, Xin Xin finally rushed out of the passage. She didn't have time to carefully check her surroundings. She hurriedly turned around and shouted, "Little monk …"
However, before she could yell out the word 'hurry', the tunnel was already filled with yellow light. Even though Xin Xin hurriedly activated the Clear Eyes Technique and the golden light in her eyes grew brighter, she still couldn't see the situation inside the tunnel clearly.
"Little monk …" At this moment, Xin Xin's voice was somewhat sobbing. She was all too clear about the might of the golden hairpin in her hand. In the end, that yellow brilliance still hadn't reached its peak, yet even her golden hairpin was somewhat unable to withstand it. Admittedly, this was because her cultivation was shallow, but … but it was also enough to show how formidable the pressure in the passageway was. In this yellow light that was already several hundred times heavier than the initial pressure, could Xiao Hua still survive?
Xin Xin was extremely suspicious.
However, Xin Xin still held onto a trace of hope. She didn't give up looking at the inside of the passageway, hoping for a miracle to happen.
After the time it took to drink a cup of tea, there was still no movement inside the passageway. Xin Xin's eyes were already sore from watching. "Sigh …" Xin Xin slightly sighed. Her heart was filled with complex feelings. It was indescribably desolate. It was as if she had just seen a beautiful scene, but before she could properly appreciate it, dark clouds had already densely covered it. "This little monk …"
This was already the fourth time Xin Xin muttered 'this little monk' in her heart within a short period of time!
"Aiyo, something's not right!"
Just when Xin Xin was about to give up and prepare to leave, she once again saw the seven flying swords that had been protecting her all this time!
"The flying swords are still in midair. This sword formation is still there. That little monk … might not necessarily be dead!"
Xin Xin suddenly jumped up. A burst of joy rushed to her heart. Her eyes were somewhat moist.
Sure enough, before she even got close to the passageway, an intense rumbling sound began to flash within the golden brilliance. Strands of faint blue color flowed within the golden brilliance. Flowers of lightning bloomed within the golden brilliance. The most bizarre thing was that strands of black gas were also flowing within the golden brilliance.
"Hahahaha …" Just when Xin Xin was in ecstasy, Xiao Hua's familiar laughter rushed out of the passageway amidst the lightning. The Transcendence Golden Body that was several tens of feet in size had already disappeared. Instead, strands of black gas slowly dissipated around Xiao Hua's body!
Seeing this, Xin Xin's rushing figure came to an abrupt halt. Then, she suddenly turned around and flew several tens of feet away. Only then did she stop, standing still with her back facing Xiao Hua.
Xiao Hua didn't care about Xin Xin's actions. In his heart, he was really very lucky. Just now, it was really very dangerous. The moment the golden brilliance appeared, his Transcendence Golden Body instantly collapsed. The center of the passageway was completely not something that the current Xiao Hua could resist.
However, the moment Xiao Hua's body returned to its original state, lightning and thunder immediately appeared between his eyebrows. The soul cultivator's lightning and thunder could obviously resist part of the heavy pressure, but it was far from enough. Xiao Hua's flying speed was too slow. In a flash of inspiration, Xiao Hua thought of the Devil Realm's concealment technique and immediately used it. Who would have thought that in this passageway, although Xiao Hua couldn't hide in the void, his flying speed would actually increase. Therefore, under the effects of the lightning and thunder technique and part of the Blood Dripping Paradise, Xiao Hua finally reached the end of the passageway.
As soon as he came out of the passageway, he felt a kind of physical and mental exhaustion. Even his limbs were sore and numb. He almost didn't even have the strength to stand. Xiao Hua cursed, "Damn it ~" and immediately collapsed on the ground.
When a cold feeling came from his buttocks, Xiao Hua suddenly woke up and hurriedly lowered his head. Seeing his naked appearance, his face turned red.
Xiao Hua's monk robes were originally ordinary goods. Previously, under the protection of the Buddhist light, they didn't have any damage. However, when Xiao Hua transformed into his Transcendence Golden Body, the monk robes had already been destroyed. However, the situation was critical at that time, and Xiao Hua's whole body was covered by the golden light, no one noticed. But now …
Awkward, awkward. Besides this, Xiao Hua didn't have any other thoughts.
He also finally understood why Xin Xin suddenly turned around and flew so far away with her back to him.
"Alas …" Xiao Hua raised his hand, wanting to take out his clothes. However, his arm was abnormally sore, and he didn't have any strength. Moreover, the muscles on his arm were already twisted. Under the heavy pressure, his entire body was seriously injured.
"Benefactress, please wait a moment!" Xiao Hua shouted, adding fuel to the fire.
How could Xin Xin pay attention to him? She just turned her back to Xiao Hua and didn't say a word.
After the time it took to smoke a cigarette, Xiao Hua stood up shakily. He put on a new robe, formed a sword seal, and collected the seven flying swords. Only then did he open his mouth and say, "Benefactress Xin …"
However, when Xin Xin turned her head, what she gave Xiao Hua wasn't the gratitude he expected. She didn't even smile. Instead, she held the golden hairpin in her hand and coldly asked Xiao Hua, "Little monk, tell me honestly, who are you?"
"Ah??
Who am I? "
Xiao Hua stared blankly for a moment, then immediately woke up. After all, in this blue passage, he once again showed a cultivation that was different from that of a Buddhist disciple. No wonder Xin Xin was vigilant again.
"Benefactress, this … I'm afraid this is the second time you've questioned this little monk!" Xiao Hua rubbed his nose and said with a bitter smile, "Didn't this little monk say it before?
This little monk is a Buddhist disciple from the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, there's no difference.
The only thing that made benefactress suspicious is that this little monk knows a lot of secret techniques that are different from that of Buddhism.
This … is very normal, right? Benefactress shouldn't have suspected this little monk at this time! "
"Would a Buddhist disciple call the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss?" Xin Xin's face was still cold as she asked back, "Would a Buddhist disciple practice Dao techniques?
Would a Buddhist disciple … practice Confucian techniques?? "
Xiao Hua shrugged and said with a smile, "Why not?
Anyone who sees this little monk would think so, right? "
"Speak … who sent you here?" Xin Xin couldn't bear it anymore and shouted loudly. The golden hairpin in her hand once again emitted a golden light.
"Who sent you here?"
Xiao Hua was baffled, almost touching his nose red, "This little monk was peacefully cultivating in the Great Snow Mountain, but you and Ci Hui brought this little monk here … and you actually asked who sent me here?
Who could it be?
Naturally it's Ci Hui! "
"You … you still don't want to be honest?" Xin Xin shouted loudly as if she had been greatly deceived, her eyes faintly glistening with tears.
Xiao Hua was helpless. He raised his hand and said, "Benefactress, remember, no matter who I am, whether it's Ti Pu, a Taoist cultivator, or a Confucian cultivator, I'm someone who has nothing to do with you!
I won't hurt you. On the contrary, I'll protect you. In this Mysterious Water Palace, I'm in the same boat as you. You don't need to know my origin, and you don't need to know who I am. As long as you leave the Mysterious Water Palace, you won't meet me again, and I won't know you! "
Xin Xin listened to Xiao Hua's words and stared at him for a long time, as if she was considering whether Xiao Hua was telling the truth. Then she put away the golden hairpin and said faintly, "That's true. What does your identity have to do with me?
Even if you were sent by that person, you still have to protect me.
If you weren't sent by that person, you've already saved me several times. What do I have to be afraid of?
My purpose in coming here is to see if that person is here. If he is … I'll think of a way. If he isn't, as long as you and I leave the Mysterious Water Palace, we'll go our separate ways. Even if you've deceived me, what can I do? "
"Good!" Xiao Hua clapped his hands, "That's how it should be!"
After saying this, Xiao Hua finally had the chance to look up and see where he was.
"Eh?
Why doesn't this place look like a palace? "
Xiao Hua looked around and couldn't help but be surprised. In front of him was a vast open space with white clouds drifting about. The sky above the white clouds was blue. Although he couldn't see the sun, there were actually some shadows in the open space.
