Chapter 355: Breakthrough, the Human Ceiling

Wow! ! !

As time passed second by second, the force of space began to ripple, instantly enveloping Li Mingxuan and Haoran.

Then, they disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye, as if they had evaporated from the face of the earth.

Susanoo stretched out his right hand, trying to summon back the sword Ame Murasakumo by his own power, but he was soon shocked to find that the connection between him and the sword Ame Murasakumo was cut off in an instant!

"Roar!!!!"

This sudden change made Susanoo extremely anxious. He rushed to the temple at lightning speed. His eyes, which were already bloodshot, now stared at everything around him fiercely like a hungry wolf.

However, when he realized that there was no one around, the unwillingness and anger in his heart made him let out a deafening roar.

.......

Li Mingxuan tightly hugged Haoran, who had been pierced by the sword of Ama-Kurokumo, and fell rapidly from mid-air towards the rough sea.

Just as the two were about to fall into the sea, at the critical moment, a powerful force of space suddenly burst out from Li Mingxuan's body.

This force was like an invisible barrier, supporting their bodies steadily and eventually allowing them to land safely on the small boat left behind by the old king.

"Haoran!!! How are you?"

Li Mingxuan's face changed drastically. He felt that Haoran's breath was gradually weakening. He was anxious and kept asking questions, his voice full of anxiety and worry.

Li Mingxuan felt helpless at the moment, like a child who had lost his support. He stared at Haoran closely, his eyes full of heartache.

"...Mingxuan...go home."

Haoran's voice was so weak that it was almost inaudible, but Li Mingxuan heard it clearly. His heart ached and tears welled up in his eyes.

"Okay...Okay...Go home!"

Li Mingxuan gritted his teeth, suppressed his inner grief, and hugged Haoran.

He frantically urged the power of space, his body constantly teleporting, and rushed towards Daxia at an extremely fast speed.

"Hold on, Haoran, we'll be home soon!" Li Mingxuan prayed silently in his heart while hugging Haoran tightly and constantly comforting him.

Their figures flickered in the void, like meteors across the sky. Li Mingxuan's speed had reached its limit, and he rushed forward desperately, just to get home as soon as possible and get Haoran treated.

As time went by, Li Mingxuan's clothes were soaked with sweat, but he didn't dare to relax at all. He knew that every moment of delay could make Haoran's situation more dangerous.

Finally, the outline of Daxia appeared in sight. Li Mingxuan was delighted and sped up. They were getting closer and closer to their destination, and hope was waving in front of them.

"Haoran, we're almost there, just hold on a little longer!" Li Mingxuan's voice was mixed with excitement and anticipation.

At this moment, Li Mingxuan was extremely anxious. While running at full speed, he looked at Haoran in his arms with concern.

Haoran's face was as pale as paper, and his breath was so weak that it seemed like it would disappear at any time.

"Mingxuan...I'm sorry...please don't be angry with me!"

Haoran opened his mouth with difficulty, and every word seemed to be spoken with all his strength.

However, as time went on, his voice became smaller and smaller, as if he was gradually swallowed up by an invisible force.

Haoran, lying in Li Mingxuan's arms, became increasingly weak. Li Mingxuan could feel Haoran's life slipping away bit by bit, but he was powerless. This feeling made him feel like a knife was cutting his heart.

"How could I be angry with you? I promise, I won't be angry with you, but you have to hold on, do you hear me..."

Li Mingxuan hugged Haoran tightly and kept talking. His voice was full of anxiety and worry, and at the same time, his hands frantically urged the power of space and the power of the netherworld, hoping to speed up and reach the destination as soon as possible.

Hurry up!!!

Faster! ! !

"Mingxuan, thank you..."

Haoran used up his last bit of strength, reached out and gently stroked Li Mingxuan's face.

Then, his eyes quickly lost their luster, a faint smile hung on the corner of his mouth, and his blood-stained hand slowly fell from Li Mingxuan's face.

At this moment, time seemed to freeze.

Do not!

No!

do not leave Me!

Li Mingxuan's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief. His heart felt like it was being torn apart, tears welled up in his eyes uncontrollably, and slid silently down his cheeks.

He stopped and stared blankly at Haoran, who had lost his life in his arms. He felt as if his soul had been sucked out of him.

Snapped! ! !

With a crisp sound, something slipped out of Haoran's pocket. Li Mingxuan reached out his hand reflexively and caught it steadily.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a piece of wood emitting a faint sandalwood scent, with a string of small and exquisite Buddhist beads tied to it.

This piece of wood was very familiar to Li Mingxuan. It was the sandalwood amulet he had prayed for Haoran a long time ago.

However, at this moment, this amulet that once carried good wishes suddenly cracked silently.

The three small characters "Li Haoran" are clearly engraved on the back, while the four large characters "Safe and Smooth" are carefully carved on the front.

——Buzz buzz buzz.

Li Mingxuan only felt a ringing in his ears, and the memories of the past and Haoran instantly emerged in his mind.

【May I have your name? 】

[Li Mingxuan? Okay, what's my name? I don't have a name, but if you want to call me, just call me the messenger from the underworld.]

[The Underworld Messenger doesn't sound good? You have to change it? Then just call me...Haoran! ]

[Okay, Li Mingxuan, from now on you are my subordinate, you have to take care of my food and daily life. ]

[Why do children in your human world have to do homework? I don’t understand! Shouldn’t children have fun playing? ]

[Mingxuan, I'm hungry. ]

[Mingxuan! Don't go out. It's too dangerous outside.]

[Mingxuan, do you...want to kill a god? ]

【Welcome back, Mingxuan. 】

[If I don't come, some fool will hold the god back alone. ]

[Mingxuan, thank you. ]

【Mingxuan, goodbye...】

[......Mingxuan......returns home....]

"Ahhhh!!!"

At this moment, the deep sadness filled his heart. Li Mingxuan hugged the lifeless Haoran tightly, looked up to the sky, and let out a heart-wrenching roar.

At the same time, a mysterious and profound aura suddenly gushed out from Li Mingxuan's body.

The breath of the human ceiling suddenly descended.
