Chapter 2692: Spring comes out of dead trees

call!

Standing in front of the space-time gate at the end of the eighth floor of the Nine Deaths Passage, Du Long, who had almost turned into a flesh and blood skeleton, secretly breathed a sigh of relief and turned his head with lingering fear to look at the dark passage behind him with no starting point in sight.

It took more than 10 million epoch-years to go all the way from the first level of the Nine Death Passage to the eighth level!

After experiencing such endless suffering for such a long time, if one does not have great determination and perseverance, he will definitely end up with a tragic ending in which both body and soul are destroyed.

However, this is not over yet!

After successfully breaking through the eighth floor of the Nine Death Passage, after stepping into the time and space gate in front of you, you will enter the ninth floor of the Nine Death Passage that is even longer and more difficult.

If we follow the rule that the time spent on each layer of passage increases tenfold, Du Long knows very well that the time spent on the last ninth layer will be longer than the cumulative time of the previous eight layers!

"The road is long and has no end in sight. I have struggled for more than 10 million epochs of time, and I have only walked half of the journey..."

A low and hoarse voice sounded softly, and a very obvious bitter taste could be felt from it, and a hint of panicked trembling could also be heard.

In this nine-death passage, if it can be described as passing through the sun like a year, the long suffering years of more than 10 million epoch years have long been unable to be measured in numbers compared to Du Long.

Over the endless years, in addition to making him endure the horrific pain that was like hell for a long time, it also constantly sharpened his will!

Time and time again he reached the limit that his body and soul could bear, and time and time again he almost reached the edge of collapse of his soul and body. Even Du Long himself was a little confused as to why he had to endure this kind of pain with almost no end in sight. Grind? !

"Alas!" A long sigh resounded in front of the space-time formation gate: "No wonder... In the entire Dragon World for endless years, no monk has been able to successfully break through the Nine Death Passage..."

"Even if you succeed in the end after going through life and death, the most you can do is make your physical body reach the ultimate state of perfection. I will still be just an ordinary supreme monk!"

In the murmur, one could feel Du Long's intention to give up in his heart. Anyone who knew that the passage to the ninth level would take hundreds of millions of years would be as willing to give up as he was, right? !

"Are we going to give up like this?! The original clone of cells in my body has just broken through to reach the 100 million God Realm. Now that I have given up, although my physical body has not been perfected, I have reached the top level among countless monks..."

In the face of boundless suffering, once you have any intention of retreating in your heart, it will be like a seed taking root and sprouting in your heart, and all kinds of excuses will keep popping up to convince yourself.

Du Long is in such a situation now. The body of the flesh and blood skeleton is constantly repairing itself, but the intention to retreat in his heart is getting out of control.

In the space that he couldn't see, there were several pairs of eyes silently watching his every move. After hearing his words of wanting to give up, no one spoke to let him continue.

Everyone knows the horror of the inheritance of nine deaths. The eight heavenly kings of the past have never made it through, and they have not even reached the end of the eighth level that Du Long has reached now. How can he be qualified to give advice? !

In the Palace of Nine Deaths, Princess Xin was murmuring. Her words were all about hoping that Du Long could give up the inheritance of Nine Deaths and that he could withdraw from it immediately.

It is a pity that her words did not reach Du Long's ears. At this most important and critical moment, Genlong Formation Spirit did not pass her voice into Du Long's ears. He wanted to give Du Long a sound without any interference. independent decision.

Under the gaze of everyone, Du Long's bloody skeleton body finally returned to its original state, and a strange feeling of relief surged to his limbs.

This feeling was very mysterious, making him feel like he was returning to his mother's arms. It was like a dream and made him feel unwilling to wake up.

After a long time, Du Long slowly opened his eyes, then stretched subconsciously, and bursts of crunching sounds like exploding beans were heard all over his body.

Crackling!

The joints all over his body were cracking, and an endless power emerged spontaneously. This feeling was so comfortable that it gave Du Long the illusion that he could blow up a Xuantian world with one punch.

"Just by successfully breaking through the eighth level of the Nine Death Passage, is my physical body so powerful?! And the original clone of the cells in the body that broke through the billions of gods, giving me the illusion that my physical body is almost holy... .”

"This is obviously not the limit that my physical body can reach. As long as I continue to accept the inheritance of the Nine Deaths Kung Fu, it is entirely possible to reach the true limit of the Supreme Realm, Dzogchen!"

"Only by reaching the ultimate perfection of the physical body, and on the road of multi-dimensional space-time creation, can I reach unreachable heights in the shortest time, and can I compare with those veteran Xuantian creation gods!"

"..."

After feeling the huge benefits brought by breaking through the eighth level of the Nine Death Passage, Du Longyou had always wanted to retreat, but gradually turned into constantly looking for excuses to continue to break through the level.

Whoosh!

It wasn't until his physical body was completely repaired and reached its peak state that he no longer hesitated and rushed into the space-time gate in a flash. He was instantly transported to the ninth level of the Nine Deaths Passage, which was also the last level of the Nine Deaths inheritance!

It was still the entrance passage of a ferocious-looking beast, with its open bloody mouth and the dark passage behind it, making Du Long feel boundless fear in his heart again.

"Hmph! I want to see what kind of test this ninth-level passage will be?!" After snorting to cheer himself up, Du Long gritted his teeth and rushed into the dark passage.

Buzz!

Different from the colorful energy fluctuations in the previous eight-layer channel, the black energy fluctuations in the dark channel can only be detected through spiritual consciousness, and then a terrifying black energy blasted onto Du Long.

ah!

Although he had been mentally prepared for a long time, this time Du Long had just been hit by the dark energy and immediately screamed in agony.

In the passage, the only light source was his body, and traces of dark energy fluctuations could be seen continuously falling, and the parts hit by the dark energy were directly annihilated.

That's right, the physical body is directly annihilated. After the annihilation, it turns into a group of special particles full of divinity and is scattered again on Du Long's body, bringing the only vitality to the constantly annihilating physical body.

In just a moment, most of Du Long's body was destroyed, and the remaining body was constantly repairing itself with the help of those divine particles.

This is an indescribably painful process. The physical cells are destroyed under the constant bombardment of dark energy, and then the divine particles left behind after the destruction continue to repair the damaged physical body.

Generally speaking, Du Long's body is shrinking and getting smaller, just like a wax man being thrown into the flames, his whole body has shrunk a lot.

Not only is his physical body shrinking, but his skeleton is also shrinking. The life and death test on the ninth level of the Nine Death Passage has caused his whole body to suffer unheard of horrific baptisms from the inside out.

And Du Long's vitality was rapidly weakening. As time went by, the vitality almost dropped to the point of being insignificant. A crisis that could threaten his life and death came.

In the Hall of Creation and Heritage, Du Long's merged clone first cried out in pain, then fainted before he could hold on for long, and then the breath of life in his body continued to weaken.

Such a terrible incident fell into the eyes of Princess Xin. This girl was so frightened that she could only keep calling Du Long's name.

On the other side, in the palace of Prince Du in the capital of Tang Dynasty.

Just when many people in the Du family finally got used to Du Long's painful state, Du Long, who finally looked much better that day, was walking with his family in the Hou Gong Garden, but something happened not long after he left.

First, he screamed in pain, then fainted and fell to the ground. Finally, he was carried back to the palace where Qin Huofeng lived.

A large family stood guarding the bedside, and could only watch helplessly as the vitality of his soul continued to weaken, and everyone was frightened.

Time is passing by, and Du Long's two clones outside have also been in a coma for a long time. The breath of soul life on their bodies has been weakened to the extreme, as if a blue lamp is swaying randomly and will be completely extinguished if not careful. .

This critical state lasted for a long time. During this period, Prince Du's Mansion also asked for help from the Great Thunder Sound Temple in Naxumi Mountain, hoping to ask a group of immortals, gods and giant Buddhas to save Du Long.

Unfortunately, in the end, even the energy incarnations of Great God Pangu and others came to Prince Du's Mansion in person, but they were all unable to do anything.

According to the Great God Pangu, Du Long is accepting the inheritance of the Nine Death Cultivation Technique, which is a terrifying existence that no one can successfully break through even in the endless years of Genlong World.

At this time, unless Du Long saves himself, the creation gods like Xuantian, who are as powerful as Pangu, can only stare blankly!

After the Du family experienced the nervousness and helplessness at the beginning, as time went by, they gradually got used to Du Long's long-term coma, and could only have people taking turns to watch over him every day.

In the ninth floor of the Nine Death Passage, a flesh and blood skeleton that had shrunk several times stood there quietly. If anyone could use spiritual consciousness to explore his body, they would find that the body was almost exhausted.

Inside this skeleton of flesh and blood, which is about to run out of oil, the only remaining trace of consciousness is in a dazed state. This trace of consciousness only knows that it is constantly running a set of mysterious techniques.

This set of mysterious skills was clearly the set of skills that naturally came to Du Long's mind after he stepped into the ninth-level passage. It was also the last level of the supreme skills of the Nine Deaths inheritance.

During the eight-level passage of the Nine-Death Passage, Du Long's willpower has become very strong after experiencing the long and painful years of tens of millions of epochs.

It is this strong willpower that allows him to maintain a trace of consciousness in this desperate situation where his soul is almost completely annihilated, and he can still barely operate the ninth level of the Nine Deaths inheritance.

The ninth-level technique of the Nine Deaths inheritance condensed an energy stream so subtle that it could not be detected in his nearly exhausted flesh and blood skeleton body, allowing his almost withered body to still retain a trace of life.

At this moment, Du Long is like a dead tree that is almost dead!

He may turn into a truly dead piece of rotten wood at any time. Similarly, as long as there is a spring rain, the dead tree may become spring again and blossom into vigorous and infinite vitality again!

Time continues to pass year after year. Compared with the endless pain on the first eight floors of the nine-death passage, Du Long now feels no pain.

However, compared to his closest relatives and friends, everyone would rather see him suffer as before, than see him on the verge of life and death as he is now.

"Alas! Nearly a million years have passed, and Du Long is still there without moving?! Even if he can successfully survive this first step, how can he survive the next nearly 10,000 steps?! "Li Wang Kong Qiong sighed with some regret.

"Yes! It is estimated that he can only get through this first step at most. In the nearly one million years of real time, he has spent nearly one million epoch-years there, and he can't even take the first step. I haven't been able to take a step forward yet..." Arrow King Houpi followed closely and shook his head with a sigh.

"Why do you still care about whether he can break through the nine-death passage?! This kid can save his life, and the most important result is not to make our Princess Xin sad!" Thunder King Ao Dian said calmly.

The memories of the Eight Heavenly Kings made comments from time to time. Everyone obviously didn't think much of Du Long anymore, and they didn't think he could successfully break through the last level of the Nine Death Passage.

In the eighth space of the Nine Death Passage, the body of the flesh-and-blood skeleton that originally stood there like a piece of dead wood moved vaguely, and a slightly stronger breath of life spread.

This breath of life is just a little stronger than before. Under normal circumstances, outsiders can't feel it at all. But it is like a dead tree encountering spring rain, gradually exuding an increasingly strong breath of life.

As this breath of life becomes more and more vigorous, the skin on its surface seems to be recovering at an accelerated pace. It has already reached a balance point with the annihilation power of the dark energy, and the speed of recovery gradually exceeds the speed of annihilation.

Inside his body, the energy channels that were almost exhausted were gradually growing under the stimulation of the Nine Deaths Technique, and the energy of the Nine Deaths Technique inside was also speeding up.

The flesh-and-blood skeletal body that was about to run out of oil and dry up began to undergo earth-shaking changes like a dead tree blooming with spring!

"Eh?! This kid's body seems to have grown a little taller?!"

"Not only has he grown a little taller, haven't you seen that his body's recovery speed from injuries is also accelerating?!"

"Haha! This kid is really amazing. There are clearly signs that he will survive successfully!"

"Phew! Anyway, he is alive. It seems that he needs to be persuaded to give up the inheritance of the Nine Death Cultivation Technique. Otherwise, if he does it again, he may not be so lucky!"

The Eight Heavenly Kings of Eternal Dragon soon discovered the clues, and they all laughed and talked about the matter excitedly. The faces of these former Ji Dao Saint Kings finally cleared away the haze that they had suffered for many years.
