Chapter 26: Defeat

Ruan Zhan didn't know what happened at night, nor did he know that his father, who didn't love him in his heart, stood by his bed all night, looking at him without blinking an eye. He left reluctantly and asked Xiaoxia not to tell his son that he was here. He was afraid that his son would never be able to let go of the love between father and son and would be merciful when attacking. The consequences would be disastrous.

Ruan Zhan just thought that he was too tired, so he fell into such a primitive dreamland, sleeping so deeply and sweetly, wasting the time he spent with Xiaoxia. He was very upset about this because he was afraid that it would be the last night they could spend together.

These days, he is mentally and physically exhausted. The gap in strength forces him to study the strategy for the duel, and the psychological pressure also puts him on the verge of collapse. How sad that the way to win that he worked so hard to figure out was actually used on his own father. Is there anything more tragic in the world than cannibalism? However, he had no choice from the day he was born. In fact, no one gave him a choice, including his birth.

Now he is standing on this bare mountain, laying out the killing formation bit by bit, and his heart is getting entangled bit by bit. In a direct fight, he had no chance of winning anyway, and although he knew in his heart that he could no longer save his father's life, he still hoped to save his soul, hoping that his father would not be so miserable.

He learned this formation from the book left by Master Long. This old man he had never met gave him too much help, and he could not repay this kindness. There are many formations recorded in the book, involving astronomy, geography, the Book of Changes, Feng Shui, and even ancient Chinese astrology. He used one of the formations when dealing with the pair of demon boys. At this time, if he wanted to defeat his father, who was so powerful that he was almost invincible, he had to choose the most powerful formation called "Jue Formation". . When introducing this formation, the first line in the book is - this formation has no life and no benevolence, and those who enter the formation cannot survive. Use it with caution, use it with caution!

He hesitated because this formation was called the Jue Formation, and there was a warning sentence in front of it, indicating that once the formation was activated, it would not stop until all the people and souls in the formation were killed. It was really dangerous and vicious. formation, but the evil aura on my father's body was too strong. If it really came to the most helpless moment, complete destruction would be better than becoming a demon and annihilating the world. He couldn't bear to be cruel, but he had to force himself. This dilemma and the same mentality as suicide made him suddenly understand his father's mood back then. So at the moment before the duel, he forgave his father from the bottom of his heart, because he deeply felt the helplessness of being unable to control himself.

For the formation to be super strong, the strength of the formation must also be super strong. He didn't have that strength originally, but the talismans that Uncle Bao collected from various secluded sects, which were like magic weapons, helped him a lot. Coupled with the harsh environment of Tietou Mountain itself, even the dead locust tree at the entrance of the hidden cave They were all in the right position, allowing him to barely form this murderous formation.

After setting up the ultimate formation, he set up other formations outside. As a last resort, he did not want to activate this formation and hoped that there would be other ways to survive this dead move. And he was not worried that his father would spy on him if he did this in broad daylight, because his father definitely wanted to end it on his own, so he would not take precautions in advance. But despite this, it took him a whole day to get ready. But this was only material preparation, and he was still very weak in his heart, unlike his usual determination and fearlessness when he was about to fight.

He glanced at the darkening sky and wanted others to go down the mountain. He didn't want others to be involved in the tragedy between their father and son. Let them and their son take the responsibility, so there is no need to drag others down. Besides, the advantage of the absolute formation is that after the formation is set up, no one else is needed to guard the position, and no one knows the position of the formation except the person who set up the formation. Once the formation is activated, it will be an endless situation, and the people and souls in the formation will not be able to control the position. Once all are wiped out, this formation will not stop killing, and no one outside can crack it.

So, this is called the ultimate formation. So, the book says to use it with caution! Therefore, he didn't want others, especially Xiaoxia, to see all this, because in the end he might die together with his father. How could he bear to let his most beloved person witness all this!

"You guys go down the mountain." He didn't dare to look into Xiao Xia's eyes, "There are too many people and it will get in the way."

"I won't be in your way, kid." Uncle Bao said calmly, "I have to set up a barrier here in the valley. Otherwise, if someone passes by, they will find something abnormal here, and this supernatural event will happen tomorrow. There will be a big fuss."

"Tonight the weather is abnormal, which will attract a large number of evil things. I want to collect souls outside the barrier. Lend me your broken flag." Bao Datong said without waiting for anyone to ask him. , "It's useless for you to keep it anyway. I collected the evil spirits and refined them. It will be of great benefit to me in the future!"

Ruan Zhan knew that their father and son had already discussed it, and it would be useless to let him say anything, so he turned his attention to Wan Li. He had an ominous premonition in his heart. It was very likely that he would never see the sun tomorrow morning again. He hoped that Wanli would understand his feelings, take Xiaoxia away, and then take care of her and accompany her until she could survive without him. ,calm life.

How much he hoped to create a miracle, and he had been working hard for so many days, but the more things came to an end, the more he felt that his death was approaching. The only person his father has been sorry for in his life is him, and the person he is sorry for is Xiaoxia. I love her, but I can't give her forever.

"I - I want to see the lunar eclipse, a spectacle that only happens once every few decades!" Wan Li simply said it casually, his lie lacking any quality.

No need to look at Xiaoxia, Wan Li's reaction has already shown that Xiaoxia has threatened him, so no one can escape tonight's torture.

The sky gradually became dark, and the light did not respond to Xiaoxia's prayer at all, and disappeared even a little later. When the night entered the middle stage, when the stars and moon in the night sky reached their brightest, Uncle Bao counted with his fingers and said to Ruan Zhan: "The time has come."

This voice is compassionate and kind, but it sounds like a trumpet in everyone's ears. Xiaoxia's heart suddenly tightened, but she gritted her teeth and said nothing.

She can't show any uneasiness, otherwise it will only make Ruan Zhan uneasy. If she endures it a little longer, she won't cry until he leaves without any worries. She told herself this, so when Ruan Zhan turned to look at her, he saw her approaching with a smile.

"I'll let you wear this for a while and return it to me tomorrow morning." She hung the precious Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva amulet around his neck and kissed him **** the lips, "You know how difficult I am. , if you don’t want to pay it back, beware of the consequences!” After saying that, he slowly stepped back without waiting for his answer.

Ruan Zhan understood Xiao Xia's heart, so he did not answer, but smiled gently, thinking that if he had to die tonight, he would be the last image in her eyes.

Behind the tall and green dead locust tree, the hidden cave is like the mouth of the devil hiding under the grass. The crack in the mountain in the distance looks like a crack in the air. The giant sword, all of this made Ruan Zhan, who walked over with the bloodwood sword, look particularly fragile and lonely. But no matter how turbulent his heart was, his steps were still steady, his expression was still calm, and he walked towards death step by step.

This made Uncle Bao feel emotional and understand his old friend's mood. In this life, he did what he wanted to do, and he had a son like this, so what regrets would he have in dying!

As for Xiaoxia, she almost collapsed the moment Ruan Zhan disappeared at the entrance of the cave. If Wan Li hadn't supported her, she might have fainted. Her disguise could only go so far, he had taken away all her strength, and now her tears could flow down freely.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, he hasn't been beaten yet! If you cry now, you will suffer a loss when he comes back without any illness or injury." Wan Li's heart was cut by a knife, but he said easily, "Let's go there Hide behind a big rock, otherwise your husband will be distracted by you and lose his temper if you lose." He led Xiaoxia and walked behind a big rock.

That was what Uncle Bao had chosen. In fact, although Ruan Zhan had worked hard to set up the formation, Uncle Bao and his son also had their own little plans. Only Xiao Xia was kept in the dark. War makes women go away, and there will be a war here tonight. Between father and son, good and evil, light and darkness, it is better to keep Xiaoxia away. She has such a pure and lovely personality, which is already rare in this complex society, so we must protect her.

Uncle Bao has already made a division of labor in advance. Uncle Bao arranged the barrier. Bao Datong was outside collecting the evil spirits attracted by the bad gas and celestial phenomena into the broken flags, while he held the remaining talismans after setting up the formation. When Uncle Bao gives the order, he will use the fire hand seal. Also, he wants to protect Xiao Xia and beware of her doing stupid things if anything happens to A Zhan.

At this time, Ruan Zhan was walking in the long, dark cave. He didn't bother to light up, and walked slowly based on his feeling, watching out for any strange movements in the darkness. He had been involved in supernatural events from the very beginning, and in every battle the weak defeated the strong, but every time his opponent was not as strong as his father, and no opponent had such a fierce and sad evil spirit to support him. Moreover, he has had help before. Today he has to do it on his own. It is not easy to overcome the gap in strength and psychological pressure, but he must do it, because that is his father's wish, and for him as a son, that is also his wish. obligations. In addition, if he couldn't stop his father, those people outside the cave would all die, and those people were all important to him, and Xiaoxia was everything to him. Even if he tried his best to destroy himself, he wouldn't let them get hurt.

A laugh similar to a cold snort came from the depths of the cave, dark, malicious and exciting. Ruan Zhan's heart trembled and he stopped. That was his father's voice. It was distorted, but he could still hear it. Is he starting to mutate now? It's not the moment of the lunar eclipse yet, although he understands that his father will slowly change before the lunar eclipse, and when the whole moon is dark, it will be the time when he becomes a demon, but isn't it too early now? Is it true that his evil anger can no longer be suppressed? But before that moment, his father changed, and it became more difficult for him to stop him. The moment when he became a demon was when his father was at his weakest, and when he was at his strongest, there was only a glimmer of hope at that moment, and it had to be postponed until that moment.

He paused and raised the bloodwood sword above his head, illuminating the road within a few meters ahead. He was only halfway through the passage in the heart of the mountain, but the Blood Wood Sword emitted an excited red light the moment he raised it, indicating that the evil energy in the cave was already full and pulsating. But the red light did not flourish, which proved that the evil energy inside was waxing and waning, and that the father was still trying to exert final control.

This makes Ruan Zhan sad. He would rather his father become a demon now and have a fight between father and son than his father torturing himself like this. Is this how he has been here for decades? When he was still a human being, he was suppressing and calculating. After becoming a soul, he stayed alone in the cold heart of the mountain, trying to vent some of his bad energy and prepare for losing to his own son. How difficult it was. This kind of life should end earlier so that my father would suffer less.

He walked, thinking, and being on guard before he reached the innermost part of the cave. Suddenly there was a bright light in front of him, like a ray of sunlight leaking from the top of the cave. It was dazzling. Under the white light, his father's figure suddenly appeared. He stood under a rock wall, his soul's limbs were tied by four invisible silver chains, and he was trapped in the innermost layer of the cave, unable to move.

Ruan Zhan stopped again and glanced at his father's complexion. Although his appearance has not changed, the black energy around his body is thick and intense. His whole body seems to be evaporated by black mist. His face changes between excitement, madness and loving pain. His eyes are strangely bright, and a figure appears in his hall from time to time. There was an obvious shadow, and it was obvious that his mind was no longer completely under control, and the good and evil spirits in his body were alternately tormenting him.

When Ruan Zhan saw his father in such a miserable state, he felt great grief. He was confused for a moment and wanted to go forward and untie his father.

"Don't come over here, Azhan!" Ruan's father suddenly shouted. At this time, his Yintang shone slightly, pushing back the black shadow, and the person was awake. "Now is not the time, can you help me?" Yes, you are merciless. If you can do it, even if we don't have a fight between father and son in vain. Now go back, at least a hundred steps away, hurry!"

"Dad——" Ruan Zhan choked and called out the word. They have been together as father and son for more than ten years, but he always thought that he was an adopted son, and his father was so cold, as if he didn't want to see him. Therefore, he only secretly called this word in his heart, and did not say it in front of his father. Pass.

Ruan's father was stunned for a moment, and felt great pain in his heart. I understand that I can't let A Zhan have feelings for me, otherwise he will feel even more uncomfortable, but why does this child have such a warm heart under his cold appearance? He reminded himself to be ruthless, but for a moment, the evil spirit took over again, and his consciousness became blurred.

"Who are you? Are you here to die? Come here and let me see!" He shouted, not knowing what he was doing.

But this was a huge blow to Ruan Zhan. He saw his father's Yintang being shrouded in black energy. One moment, he looked like an immortal and worried about him, but in a moment it was replaced by a fierce and fierce energy. , and at the same time, the body struggled forward, trying to get rid of the shackles of the silver chain, and pounced on him to eat him!

With a crash, the solid rock wall in the cave was shattered inch by inch by his hard struggle. If the chain hadn't been deeply embedded in the rock, Ruan's father would have broken out of the rope at this moment!
