| ← Ch.100 | Ch.102 → |
Xu Linghe flew in the direction of Cuihua Mountain. When he landed from the clouds, his little woman woke up.
"Cuihua Mountain?"
Wuyou thought of the scene in the Heavenly Mirror where the mountains resembled exactly those in front of her. Had the little woman come here before? Xu Linghe was rather surprised.
"No one can come into the place that Grandmaster has sealed up."
"I once peeked through the Heavenly Mirror. So I know Cuihua Mountain certainly. I know what happened 500 years ago. My grandfather died in Xiaoyao Grotto-heaven."
"Your grandfather?... How did the Ancient God, Jiangyu, die?"
"The Heavenly Mirror said because Chidi wanted to get the Ancient Spirit, he kidnaped the Goddess of the Moon's child. In order to save her child, the Goddess of the Moon cheated my grandfather, your Grandmaster to the Xiaoyao Grotto-heaven."
"So Chidi should be to blame for everything."
"That's right. In the Heavenly Mirror, I can see what you looked like in the childhood and your mother's later reincarnation."
"Is it Feng Xi?"
"My husband is so smart. You did not expect that Granny Moon is your grandmother. But your mother was not the daughter of the Fairy King, and she was the child of Granny Moon and Shenzong. To rob the Ancient Spirit, Chidi threatened Xiao Qingkong. And Granny Moon had no choice but to cajole Shenzong to the Xiaoyao Grotto-heaven. So all of these were Chidi's scheme."
"Impossible. If Grandmaster is my grandfather, he should have told me before."
"Shenzong knows nothing about it."
"Linghe is here."
Shenzong's sudden appearance startled Wuyou. Xu Linghe came to greet him merrily.
"How is Great Grandmaster?"
"He is being cared in the Jinghe Secluded Land."
Black Emperor's spirit essence was led to Cuihua Mountain by Grandmaster. In order to save Black Emperor, Grandmaster opened the Cuihua's Spirit Condensing Void and Black Emperor's spirit essence was drawn into there today. Shenzong had been studying intensively for a month before perceiving this method.
"Young guy, come to look your Uncle Ying."
A pointed and thin face appeared in the little pavilion. Xu Linghe flew toward him. It was worthwhile that Grandmaster had Ying Fu as his bosom friend.
"You come here not for me." Ying Fu's face fell with disappointment.
"Linghe has something to ask Uncle Ying."
"You kid. Just come straight to the point. Don't beat around the bush."
"Uncle Ying is really a straight-forward man! Am I the grandson of Grandmaster?"
"Your woman told you that, right? What a cheat mouth!"
"Uncle Ying."
"Well, your Grandmaster is so old that he can't live too more years. It would be better that he knows nothing about it."
"Uncle Ying, Linghe wants to know the truth."
"What a trouble! Shenzong and the Goddess of the Moon are really your grandparents. And Feng Xi is your mother's later reincarnation. What's good to you to know it? Your grandparents have missed each other this life. And you'd better not mention it to your junior uncle master. Let it buried in your heart. Otherwise, your junior uncle master will be grieved over it."
Xu Linghe had a mixed feeling about Ying Fu's words. For happiness, he had his family members with him; but for sadness, he could not acknowledge them. Seeing Xu Linghe fall into silence, Ying Fu was a bit anxious, thinking that the guy had the same character as Shenzong. The more they cared, the more silent they would be. In the little pavilion, both Xu Linghe and Ying Fu had their own worries.
"The Goddess of the Moon was killed by Zhu Jiuyin. Does Grandmaster know it?"
"You should not tell it to him. You, your woman and I know it. That's fine. Besides, the Goddess of the Moon has died. Your Grandmaster will feel guilty through his life if he knows that the Goddess of the Moon has sacrificed so much for him."
They two came out of the little pavilion and headed to Jinghe Secluded Land. Today was the day when Black Emperor entered the Spirit Condensing Void. And Shenzong would lead Original Spirit into the Void where Black Emperor was able to asorb Spiritual Qi of Cuihua so as to cultivate his true body as soon as possible. Wuyou followed Shenzong closely. After the uproar in the Ninth-level Heaven, Shenzong changed his attitude utterly, and cherished Xiao Douya more. Besides, Wuyou was Junior Brother Jiang's granddaughter. Today, why the woman was allowed to come the Void had something to do with Black Emperor's divine light. Shenzong thought his Master cultivated Pangu's technique, and the woman had the power of the Heavenly Book. So she could help Black Emperor condense spirit. Jinghe Secluded Land was located under the earth, which was an utmost Yin place. When Shenzong descended the earth, Wuyou followed to jump in. Xu Linghe came in a hurry and followed Ying Fu to go down the earth for fear that Grandmaster would hurt the Original Spirit.
"Grandmaster."
Voice resounded in the rock formations and Dark River flowed beneath them. Both of them kept moving ahead. Behind the rock, a glimmer of spirit light showed out. Following the spirit light, Xu Linghe entered the deep pool. It turned out that it was the entrance of Dark River. Ying Fu utilized the Ninth-level Echo to detect Shenzong's spirit.
"The rock on the right."
Xu Linghe followed Ying Fu to the rock formations, where thundering roar rang in the darkness and Spirit Power spread in all directions. Xu Linghe flew to the light. Viewed afar, Grandmaster suspended above the rock, condensed the Spirit Power and injected into the Jinghe Secluded Land. When the Land was unsealed, Black Emperor's spirit essence began condensing. Shenzong murmured the incantation, waiting for the spirit essence's being infused, while Wuyou read Pangu's incantation. Over the rock formation, Spirit Power converged and floating Spiritual Qi enwrapped Black Emperor's spirit essence. Shenzong could not feel relieved until the spirit essence coagulated into a spinel.
"Grandmaster, why has Great Grandmaster's spirit essence coagulate into a spinel?"
"Yes! I also rarely see it."
"Black Emperor is the reincarnation of the Ancient God, Hun Kun."
Ying Fu was dumbfounded because Ancestor Hun Kun was hundreds of thousands of years older than Pangu. But every ten of thousands of years, Hun Kun would disperse his spirit essence completely and search for the physical body on the nine provinces. How luckly Black Emperor was! He was Hun Kun's reincarnation. At that time, Ying Fu finally understoody why Black Emperor had the determination of creating the world and the kindness of delivering all living creatures from torment. It was all because Hun Kun was the first person at the original state of Heaven and Earth, and the first one to cultivate Immortal and refine elixir. Ancient Spirit and Yun Mu's spirit were both his later reincarnation, Black Emperor's masterpieces.
"Linghe, your Great Grandmaster is Hun Kun's reincarnation."
"You're really amazing, even knows Hun Kun."
Xu Linghe quite admired his little woman. But Wuyou did not know who was Hun Kun at all, but the Heavenly Book gave her detailed record about Hun Kun. And Wuyou just needed to read it through her consciousness.
"It is greatly harmful to the physical body in Jinghe. So we'd better go back to the Spirit Condensing Void now."
Shenzong sealed the spinel up. Black Emperor's spirit essence was a spinel of utmostly-Yin nature, which was vulnerable to blaze. Although Jinghe was good to Black Emperor, it was harmful to living creature. It was indisputable that Shenzong was rather fragile. When he came out of Jinghe, he almost collapsed, his face terribly pale in the sunshine. Xu Linghe was worried about his Grandmaster. Ying Fu could not bear to see that, so he displayed his Spirit Power to lift Shenzong up and flew to the Spirit Condensing Void. Wuyou followed them closely. After knowing Shenzong was her husband's grandfather, Wuyou became more understanding. Besides, Shenzong was Granny Moon's lover. Wuyou had more respects to him.
The group of people flew to Cui Hua. When they returned to the Spirit Condensing Void, Ying Fu withdrew his Spirit Power. Shenzong looked better. It turned out that Jinghe was really not a place for physical bodies. Shenzong removed the seal on the spinel, and spirit essence glared shiningly in the spirit light. Shenzong condensed his Spirit Power, and then, the Flowing Light Sword flew out upon being called. Xu Linghe did not know what Flowing Light was used for. When Shenzong cleaved the Void, a strong current swept. Wuyou felt she was falling down. When she landed, there was another scene before her where the sky was grey, dead wood was tottering at the end of the sky, and the air smoked with blood. There was a dead silence there. No living creature. Only wisps of dim souls.
"Linghe."
Wuyou suddenly felt scared. However, a warm flow surrounded her from behind. And then, Wuyou's mind was set at ease.
"Spirit Condensing Void is the great skill created by Master. Only by enduring the Spirit Condensing skill can you have the eternal spirit essence in the real sense. Master put his insight into the Void for the sake of washing away the desire on the physical body."
"Can Black Emperor resurrect?"
Ying Fu would rather wonder it and felt it had nothing to do with him that the Spirit Condensing Void was able to clean Original Spirit. Since he was at an old age, his spirit had been dirty already. It seemed that the only purpose that Shenzong led all the people there was that Shenzong was wary of Xu Linghe's woman. Judging from Jiang Wuyou's current ability, she was unassailable. Shenzong knew that all the people in the three realms understood that the power of the Heavenly Book had the power of righteousness and evil. So the person with benevolence could bring blessing and good to the three realms while the person with weak willpower would conduct something dreadful if he
"Linghe, you should not have any distractions in your heart. Otherwise, you can't go out of the Void."
Wuyou held her breath, wondering what she had seen was what she thought. This made Wuyou more stressful. Because that scene looked rather isolated and terrifying. The more Wuyou thought, the more frightened she became. And her body began struggling. Shenzong stared at Jiang Wuyou. In fact, Shenzong had already calculated the woman's fate and found that the woman would cause crowning calamity to He'er. Shenzong did not believe it before, but now he showed some trust in it. The woman was chosen by the Heavenly Book. No one knew it was a blessing or a curse. Shenzong once opened his celestial eye, only to see the living creatures in the three realms fell into utter misery, and the woman was the initiator of catastrophe. So in order to prevent it happening, Shenzong had sealed up He'er memory. But out of Shenzong's expectation, Heaven had its own way. He'er unlocked the seal himself. And the two had a child. As for these, Shenzong could do nothing but to borrow Master's Spirit Condensing Void to test the woman, only hoping that the woman would rule the Heavenly Book and sealed up the power of destroying the world. Shenzong concentrated his spirit and lifted the spinel up. Black Emperor's soul was gathering. Shenzong intensified his Spirit Power. Ying Fu felt something come out inside. Those that could clean the mind made trouble in Ying Fu's body, which almost melted his heart and lung. Ying Fu really wanted to leave there as soon as possible. Otherwise, he had done so many evil things in his life. His heart could not bear being melting any more. Luckily, Ying Fu had been repent and saved, and he could have a second chance to live again. However, Wuyou knew nothing about Shenzong's plan, and just thought that it was the only and neccessary road to resurrect Black Emperor. Shenzong condensed Spirit Power to call the spiritual beasts in the Void. Those spiritual beasts were the ones that Black Emperor had created to restrain the evil spirits. Shenzong concentrated his spirit and sealed those spiritual beasts into Wuyou's body.
"Grandmaster, why do you do that?"
Shenzong ignored his grand disciple and condensed more seals. Wuyou only felt something rolling in her body. Those spiritual beasts roared inside. Although the Heavenly Book had the technique to control evil spirits, it rejected any invaders, so it swallowed the spiritual beasts. When everything became calm again, Wuyou picked herself up from the ground and thought that Shenzong did not like her. How could he use Black Emperor's spriritual beasts to constrain her? But Shenzong would never know that the spiritual beasts that he released to suppress Jiang Wuyou had been disarmed by the technique of controlling evil spirits. Xu Linghe cared about the little woman a lot. Seeing how painful she was, Xu Linghe even showed some grudge to Grandmaster. If it had been others, Xu Linghe would have flung out a thrust. Wuyou shook her head to show that she was fine. And Xu Linghe could rest his heart. Meanwhile, Ying Fu also got angry, because he thought Shenzong did overdid it. How could Shenzong cheat him to the Void and seal spiritual beasts into Jiang Wuyou's body? Shenzong did ruthlessly. Anyone would get angry over it. But the woman was quite tolerant. If it had been for others, perhaps they would have destroyed the Void already. Ying Fu had seen Wuyou's Spirit Power before, so he was convinced that she had such power. So in this aspect, Ying Fu thought more highly of Wuyou and envied that Shenzong could have such a good granddaughter-in-law. But pity that Shenzong, such a pedantic old man, did not realize it at all.
In the Void, Shenzong settled Black Emperor's soul, and the spirit essence was curling up the spinel. Shenzong lit up Veridical Fire to surround the spinel tightly. When the flames blazed into the spinel, a ray of spirit light shone out. Shenzong set the great formation for resurrection and led the blood in his chest out. When the blood merged with the spinel, a fierce gale sprang up over the Void, and thunderbolt's roars followed. The floating spinel surged. Shenzong increased his Spirit Power.
