The mural was like a living history, and he wanted to know how the youth was doing.
He encountered another mural.
An indescribable sense of loneliness and helplessness filled his heart, and he wanted to stop and not look at it anymore.
Everyone looked at the youth differently. Even the seniors who had played with him before now looked at him with disgust and jealousy, as if his existence was a mistake.
"Senior Sister."
"Don't call me that, You Che. I'm not worthy of being your senior sister."
"Senior Brother?"
"You Che, I'm going into seclusion. Please go back."
The youth was at a loss. What had he done wrong?
"Senior Brother You Che, I've finally found you. May I ask what you mean by 'the sea of one's heart is like a continent, and the sea of one'?"
"I haven't learned that yet."
"Senior Brother You Che, we're all from the same sect, so don't hide it from me. Tell me that I'll follow your lead from now on."
"But I really don't know."
"Hmph, no wonder our senior brothers and sisters said that about you. Our fellow disciples are helping each other to deal with the Nine Bases Tournament, but you're so selfish. Martial Uncle is right. Those who are not of our race will have different intentions."
You Che was at a loss. Not of our race?
Not of our race?
Right, he wasn't human. He was different from them. He'd forgotten that he wasn't human.
He was a green algae. Right, when he was a green algae, the seniors liked him a lot. What did it matter if he was human or not?
It was as if he could see the sky clear up, and he slowly crouched down and turned back into a green algae. He walked towards his senior sister, "Senior Sister, look at me. I'm Little Grass."
She didn't answer.
He went to look for his senior brother, but there was still no reply.
。
Quite a few people who saw this sniggered.
"Hey, Little Che, come back with Master."
"Go where?
Master, isn't this our home? "
"Yes, this is our home, but we have another home."
"I don't want to go back. Master, there are seniors here, and many friends. There's also a base master."
"Alright."
His hand missed. He touched the mural again, but he paused. This mural's heartforce had changed, and it was completely different from the previous ones.
It wasn't that the person in the painting had changed, but that the person in the painting had changed.
Dreaming of ancient times, You Che sat cross-legged on top of a tall mountain. Compared to before, he was a little more clear-headed, a little more otherworldly.
His change was not only in his cultivation, but also in his mastery of the Non-Phase Heavenly Art.
That's right, he had successfully cultivated the Non-Phase Heaven Art, but he had not told anyone, not even his master.
He would always remember all the things that happened when he forced his senior sister to retreat. Now, he was very clear that that gaze was called jealousy. Because he was outstanding, no one wanted to play with him. He wanted to hide it, but he couldn't. In the past, every time his senior sister and the others defeated him, they would comfort him. Therefore, he subconsciously maintained that kind of situation, but he was mistaken for hiding it.
Then he would really hide it. Not a single one of them would know.
He had a lot of friends now, be it in the fifth stronghold or Ninth Base. Those people called him Young Master Che and drank and chatted merrily with him. They did not mind, or rather, they did not seem to mind the fact that he was not human.
He didn't need to care about what those people thought, as long as they were on good terms with him on the surface.
His senior sister had also made up with him. After she was defeated by him in a single move during a spar, she took the initiative to reconcile with him.
Good. She wanted to use him to improve her cultivation. This was also good. At least he could still hear her calling him Little Grass. Even though the taste had changed, he would just treat it as reminiscing about the past.
As for that piece of paper, he never gave it away again.
His state of mind was open, and his mental strength was also improving. Everything was heading in the right direction.
In the next mural, he frowned slightly. Anger, indignation, and various other emotions appeared in his mind. These were You Che's emotions.
He had been rejected from entering Xiang City.
Xiang Xue wanted to bring a group of people into Xiang City. His senior brothers and sisters were all present, but he was rejected.
You Che raised his hand when he saw the mocking gazes of the people around him. Just like when he was a child, he asked, "Base Master, I also want to enter Xiang City."
Xiang Xue looked at You Che and said gently, "You can't."
You Che was confused. "Why?"
Xiang Xue did not answer. He just shook his head and led everyone to Xiang City.
Only You Che was left behind.
He was confused, angry, indignant, and various other emotions filled his mind. Why? Why couldn't he?
But those useless senior brothers and sisters could. They were completely useless, so what kind of mental strength could they learn?
Could they learn the Phaseless Sky Art?
It was a waste to let them enter Xiang City. They would never be able to find the Heart of Destiny.
Why? Why?
Lightning streaked across the sky.
You Che looked at the gradually darkening sky, lost in thought. Right, he had forgotten again. He was not human.
He was not of the same race.
Yes, he was not human. How could he always forget?
Those people had never treated him as one of them, so they could enter Xiang City, but he could not.
Xiang City belonged to them. It belonged to the human civilization.
You Che sat down weakly and looked at the ground.
For some reason, the rain had a murky black color to it. He just happened to be sitting at the edge of the falling rain, and half of his white robes were dyed black.
Half black, half white.
You Che spread out his hands and smiled. It looked pretty good.
His hands touched nothing. He walked down step by step, but before he could touch the mural, he opened his eyes. Was it all?
Looking back, from top to bottom, he saw the first half of You Che's life. From being carefree to being black and white, from Little Grass to Young Master Che, no one really helped him. When the rain dyed his long robes black, there was no turning back.
At that moment, he did not know whether he should be happy or sad.
In front of him, words were carved into the stone wall. There were very few words, but they shocked Lu Yin.
Tai Qing.
Two large words appeared in front of him.
Lu Yin immediately walked over and looked at the stone wall. At the top were the words "Tai Qing." There was another line below, but it had been erased. Looking at the traces, it seemed to have been there for some time. Even Time Reversal would not be able to tell.
However, there was another line at the bottom.
"The process of war is the process of lockbreaking!"
Lu Yin looked at these words and felt an inexplicable chill. Could this be the Tai Qing's idea?
War and lockbreaking were two completely unrelated matters, but they could be equated.
For Lockbreakers, lockbreaking was their natural duty.
The Tai Qing civilization was undoubtedly the pinnacle of lockbreaking. Even though Lu Yin had never seen this civilization before, he knew about it.
If this civilization really equated war and lockbreaking, then they were too terrifying.
Lu Yin looked around, but there was nothing left.
You Che had not left anything behind except these murals and this line of words.
Lu Yin looked at the murals and felt that You Che's death was too unreal.
You Che
He was very strong, and even Lu Yin was not confident that he could win. You Che was just as unfathomable as Wang Wen, and they had both trained at Nine Bases, which made others apprehensive.
Lu Yin still could not accept that You Che had died.
Even though dying at the hands of a dead universe was reasonable, he still could not accept it.
He remembered Wei Rong's reminder that he could not be too hasty in controlling Xiang City.
Lu Yin looked around and then disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already within the Core Space. When he looked back, Dongxu Mountain was already far away.
Just as he was about to teleport away again, he suddenly clutched his chest. His pupils dilated and his vision blurred. He lowered his head, and his body seemed to change in an instant. He felt as if he could not control himself.
How could this be?
His heart skipped a beat, and his body shook once more. His vision blurred.
Lu Yin slapped his chest and suppressed the tremors, allowing his vision to return to normal. He then sat down cross-legged.
Thump!
Thump!
Thump!
Lu Yin's heartbeat was abnormally clear, but it was different from the powerful heartbeat he'd experienced during his breakthrough. This heartbeat was unfamiliar, and it was not his own. It was You Che's.
A familiar figure appeared in front of him. It seemed both real and illusory. It was You Che.
You Che smiled at Lu Yin, and as he smiled, his heartbeat grew louder and louder.
Lu Yin's body grew more and more numb. His heartbeat was clearly loud, but he could not control his body at all.
"I never thought that it would be you, Lu Yin. I was saving this move for Le Guku Jin, but you're not bad either."
You Che's voice came from within Lu Yin's heart. It was as if he had entered Lu Yin's body, and his voice was coming from within.
Lu Yin punched his own chest.
"It's useless. Your broken heart is still your own. Have you heard of the Heart Exchange Sect?
？”
"The Heart Exchange Sect?"
"That's right. The reason why the Formless Sky Art is known as an invincible technique second only to the Heart's Affinity Technique is because of its final profound meaning, the Heart Exchange Sect. It allows you to live again." You Che's voice was very clear, and it did not interfere with the beating of Lu Yin's heart.
"Exchanging one's own Heart Exchange Sect with the enemy, using the Heart Exchange Sect's will to reverse one's life essence and allow one's personality to reappear. This is the Heart Exchange Sect.
"The Heart Exchange Sect is a heart technique and heart force. It is a life's most fundamental thought. Be careful that the Heart Exchange Sect doesn't change your life, but your will will no longer be your previous will."
"You want to use my body to be reborn?" Lu Yin asked.
You Che replied, "You can understand it that way. I'm sorry, Lu Yin, but if I had a choice, I wouldn't choose you. You still have to help me control Xiang City. Once I become you, I'll just be the second version of myself to undergo a life change. My essence will no longer be you.
"Controlling Xiang City doesn't depend on one's life essence, but their essence. It depends on one's comprehension, understanding, and recognition of the city. Thus, even if I take your body, I still won't be able to control Xiang City."
"What a pity."
Lu Yin didn't understand. "Then, is the one talking to me right now you, or is it your heart force?"
"I'm no longer me. My original self has truly died. The karmic restraints have caused Le Ku to wither away. What little knowledge I have now will dissipate, but after the Heart Exchange Sect, this knowledge will return one day. Using knowledge to reconstruct oneself is the highest realm of the Formless Sky Art."
"Using heart force to reconstruct oneself? Are you still you?"
"Of course."
"Then you haven't truly died, and Le Ku withered away because you increased the karmic restraints?"
"You don't believe me?"
Lu Yin frowned. "I don't."
You Che
You Che's tone was relaxed. "It doesn't matter if you believe me or not. I'll use your body to reconstruct myself, and you'll completely disappear. It doesn't matter if you believe me or not." As he spoke, Lu Yin's heart beat faster and faster, as if it was about to jump out of his body.
