385: Chapter 100: Return, Here I Co
To retain “her” within Qing Li’s body, Ruyi Dao alone was not enough.
But what if the Undying Spring was added?
“It’s still…
not enough.”
Qing Li shook her head, gently uttering this sowhat cold statent.
Under the shroud of Holy Light, her gaze upon Xie Xuanyi softened a tad.
It turned out that this youth’s wishful thinking was to retain the mute girl with whom he had a fleeting encounter.
Unfortunately,
the great way of life and death, Heaven’s decree of Reincarnation, was not so easily defied.
“If your Undying Spring could achieve Great Success, perhaps you really could reverse life and death,”
Qing Li regretfully said, “Unfortunately, this era does not allow such things to happen.”
Xie Xuanyi was taken aback.
What did she an by that?
“The era I ca from had not exhausted its Primordial Energy, and the great calamities had not yet descended; True Dragons, True Phoenixes, the myriad gods and buddhas…”
Qing Li lowered her head, observing the ancient country buried in wind and sand.
A thousand-year cycle.
As an incarnation, she wandered through Great Yue Kingdom, observing murals, studying ancient history, and coming to understand what kind of era she had descended upon.
It was an era where all thods were in decline.
Heavenly Dao had collapsed, and True Immortals were extinct.
That was why Emperor Qi so desperately built the Immortal Ascension Platform, grasping at the last thread of hope before the prosperous age crumbled.
“What was that era like?”
Xie Xuanyi couldn’t help but ask.
Be it the Da Sui Sword Palace or the Taoist sect, even though they had a long history—
the ancient history from a thousand years ago was all destroyed.
The people of today could no longer know how splendid that golden age really was.
“That era was fascinating.
There were many geniuses.”
Qing Li gazed at the young man before her.
She quietly said, “However…
I can feel that the Primordial Energy of the outer world seems to be reviving.
The environntal condition of Heaven and Earth today is much better than it was a thousand years ago.”
Was it because of the North Sea Mausoleum?
Xie Xuanyi didn’t know what to say.
After the chaos in Qing State ended,
Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi gradually enriched.
The grand tidal wave of the era was also returning.
Only regretfully, this wave, no matter how large, could not compare to the era Qing Li hailed from.
“The Undying Spring is a top-tier treasure; not to ntion today, even in the era I am from, countless people fought fiercely over it, vying fiercely.”
Qing Li extended her hand, gently caressing across the void, the Undying Water Vapor that seeped from Xie Xuanyi’s palm.
She did not absorb this Undying Water Vapor.
Rather, she felt the warmth and the vitality of the Undying Spring, as if caressing a silk scarf.
A hint of nostalgia appeared in Qing Li’s eyes, she emotionally stated, “It’s unexpected that I would see the ‘Undying Spring’ in this era…
this thing should have perished along with that era.”
With these words,
a bold conjecture suddenly sprang in Xie Xuanyi’s mind.
He subconsciously asked, “Do you an…
the Undying Spring is also not of this era?”
This ti, it was Qing Li’s turn to pause.
The lady in the green robe smiled with narrowed eyes, “That’s an interesting notion.”
The Ruyi Dao could, through the “Immortal Ascension Platform,” call her into Great Yue Kingdom.
Then the Undying Spring…
Could it also be transferred using a similar thod?
“Dust to dust, earth to earth.”
“Things not of this era must eventually ‘return.'”
Qing Li plucked a wisp of water vapor, gently holding it in her palm, she murmured, “When I previously slew Emperor Qi, I saw those stretches of Undying Spring that enveloped Great Yue Kingdom.
While these springs contain trendous vitality, they are used up drop by drop…”
This might just be the proof that the Undying Spring does not belong to this era.
But—
the fact that Xie Xuanyi could make the Undying Spring regenerate!
How could that be explained?
“Xie Xuanyi, perhaps you truly are the chosen one.”
Qing Li reassessed the youth before her: “If one day in the future, you could cause the Undying Spring to awaken and transform, then the depleted Primordial Energy between heaven and earth could also be revitalized.
Who knows, this era might completely change…
only too bad…”
She paused for a mont.
Qing Li regretfully said, “It’s too bad, I won’t see that day.”
She was a True Dragon, a prisoner, and a traveler not of this era.
As the waves strike relentlessly, and the great battle concludes.
Now.
It was her ti to return.
“…”
Xie Xuanyi felt a blockage in his chest, watching as Ruyi Dao reford and transford into Divine Fruit, landing in his palm.
This was what helplessness felt like.
So people must go, unretainable.
Just like sand slipping through fingers, scattering once the wind blows.
“Whoosh!”
Qing Li looked up, her garnts rging with the wind and sand.
True Dragon Law dispersed alongside the light at the zenith of heaven.
The lady finally gathered Tao Rules, employed Divine Skills, and solidified that wisp of Undying Spring from Xie Xuanyi’s palm into a slender, pure white hairpin.
Barefoot, she walked towards a higher point in the sky.
Clouds like flas ford steps stretching endlessly, sacred and majestic.
She stood under the long-missed sunlight of a thousand years.
Her hair flying, her garnts fluttering.
This lonely figure, emanating a sacred aura, gradually beca engulfed and dissolved by the grand sunlight.
Eventually turning into nothingness.
…
…
Xie Xuanyi watched this scene, silent for a long ti.
Papers flying, dust and snowflakes simultaneously sounding, it took a very long ti, until soone tapped his shoulder, before he finally snapped back to reality.
“Hey, it’s ti to wake up.”
Lu Yuzhen stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the sun above Great Yue Kingdom, his tone as indifferent as ever, “Everyone is the sa, there will be a day of death.
You’ve been standing here for half an hour already, if you had used this ti to comprehend the Tao…”
