Chapter 1301: Chapter 1301: May This Moon Never Set in the West
"Concealing the cause and effect is essentially to avoid unnecessary entanglements, but if Little Nine doesnât understand, sister will tell these stories in simpler words. However, there is great cause and effect here; you may listen but cannot interrupt, even after listening, you must pretend not to know in future lifetimes..."
Here we go again...
Bei Xiao Man sighed helplessly. The sister promised to speak plainly, but in the end, what she said was still... unintelligible!
"In the distant past, there was a time of darkness without day, it was an era when the Primordial Era and Kumei battled continuously, and during that time... three birds were born. One was a crane, the second was a crow, the third was... a sparrow."
Oh?
This sister is telling a story about three little birds, which is seemingly easy to understand... what a joke!
Bei Xiao Man became more perplexed.
This story is obviously full of allegories, more difficult to grasp than simple riddles!
Forget it, this sister probably wonât speak plainly, I give up...
"Birds in the world didnât always fly from the beginning, until everything became a matter of course. And when all beings become accustomed to what they naturally possess, they find it difficult to realize that life itself is a fortune, an accidental fate; while destruction is the true destination for all beings..."
"The three birds witnessed life, understood destruction, and ultimately began to pursue why birds fly..."
"The crane said it was because birds believed they could fly; the sparrow said it was because birds wished they could fly; the crow said because birds... must fly to the skies. Three different thoughts nurtured three distinct paths, yet all leading to the same goal, the aim of the three birds was to find the origin of the world."
"So they joined forces and ultimately rewrote everything... thereafter the Primordial Era submitted, Kumei was suppressed, and the eons-long nights gained lasting light. But, the sun, moon, and stars also face the day of destruction, and ancient kingdoms will crumble too, there is no eternal life in the world, yet there is eternal destruction... The crane was the first to pass away, with an invincible body, quietly and bitterly gone... the world was once again forgiven, at the cost of the collapse of the ancient kingdom..."
"The sparrow was the second to pass, only to leave hope for all beings. The sparrow had nine daughters, seven left with their father... the youngest sister was too young to follow, and the seventh daughter, who loved her, stayed in the world to protect her..."
"The sparrow left all her merits in the hands of the seven daughters, and left the moonlight to the youngest daughter... but the merit could only protect the unconsumed body, the moonlight could only guard the undying heart... they could accomplish nothing."
"Finally, the ancient kingdom was left with only the crow, and that crow is still fighting today, but can no longer turn back, return, nor gain or lose anything..."
"This is the story of the three birds."
Evidently just a fairy tale meant to deceive children, yet Bei Xiao Man still felt somewhat sad, inexplicably empathetic.
This is the history of the ancient kingdom, the three divine kings of the ancient kingdom, in the end, all ended sadly... Ning Fan sighed secretly in his heart.
The history of the ancient kingdom is somewhat too heavy. Once Ning Fan didnât want to get too involved, but... if that is truly her origin, he is willing to learn everything related to her.
"There is a mountain standing at the source of the long river, on it are nine stone pillars..."
After telling the story of the three birds, she began to narrate the story of the nine stone pillars.
"One pillar is the Tribulation, a forbidden existence feared by all other pillars, isolated in the world..."
"Three pillars are Desolation, Annihilation, Hui... among them, the Hui pillar never attained its true self, existing in name only; the Annihilation pillar came from beyond the sky, isolated from the world..."
"Five pillars are Chaos, Hong, Li, Mountain and Sea, Wa... among them, the Wa pillar also exists in name only, similar to the Hui pillar..."
The woman paused when speaking of this, and numerous emotions became unspeakable, turning into silence.
Ning Fan seemed to ponder, already pursuing the vast cause and effect through the Life Realm, stepping into the extreme of Heaven and Human to seek the grand cause and effect within the story.
The nine pillars correspond to the Reverse Saints, donât they? Nine is the ultimate number, are there only nine Reverse Saints in the True Realm now,
could Hui refer to Immortal Emperor Hui Shi? A deceased Immortal Emperor, yet still one of the nine Reverse Saints of the True Realm today, this isnât reasonable. In this case, isnât this position virtually vacant, or is causing Immortal Emperor Hui Shi to occupy the position without merit an important part of some Reverse Saintâs schemes...
And Han E, shouldnât she be the Immortal Emperor named Wa? Yet she is half-alive just like Immortal Emperor Hui Shi? Thus, another Immortal Emperorâs position is seemingly vacant...
The Immortal Emperor named Annihilation remains unknown, but upon hearing this name, Ning Fan felt the protective intent of the God-Extinguishing Shield within him, the benevolent cause named "Extinct Ancient," does it correspond to this or is there another origin...
The Immortal Emperor named Tribulation...
Ning Fanâs expression showed a trace of complexity.
Initially when cultivating ghost servants, he regarded the Calamity Master as an ultimate villain, a mortal enemy of the Zi Dou Immortal Domain, a great foe at the end of his path. Now he faintly senses thereâs another profound cause at play, and itâs far from what it appears on the surface...
The cause of the Reverse Saints is never simple, even the cause involving Zi Wei and Northern Dipper has endless calculations, leading to their extermination by Purple Dou Immortal Sovereign in the end...
What concerns Ning Fan even more is the various benevolent and malevolent causes Han E mentioned earlier, none of which included the Calamity Master.
But that doesnât make sense! He obviously cultivated Blood Lightning, yet there is no plot involving any Calamity Master behind him, incredible to believe. Did Han E omit mentioning the Calamity Masterâs cause, or... from the very beginning, that person truly plotted nothing, yet clearly remains a major enemy of the Zi Dou Immortal Domain, indeed the culprit for its destruction...
No, is it really the culprit... Ning Fan seemed to contemplate another possibility but couldnât assert it.
Another matter still puzzles Ning Fan.
He clearly feels Chiwei is an entity comparable to the Reverse Saints, based on the impact caused by unleashing Chiweiâs Demon Name, the opponent should be a being comparable to the Reverse Saints...
But why isnât Senior Chiweiâs name listed among the Nine Reverse Saints of the True Realm, is it because her presence hasnât reached the True Realm? Or is there another reason...
Speaking of...
There are nine reversals in the True Realm, Hui, Wa as vacancies, so nine in name, but seven in reality.
Among the seven reversals, Tribulation is the great enemy of all paths, Annihilation isolated from the world, extracting these two solitary individuals...
Are five!
Chaos Kun, Hong Jun, Bloodline Awakening, Ancient, Mountain and Sea Master!
These five individuals precisely correspond to the five numbers of reversal saints on the Five Spirits Chessboard!
If the Five Spirits Chessboard can change the predestined numbers between fate and destiny, then once these five individuals join forces, could they not casually rewrite destiny, playing everyone into the palm of their hand...
Could these five individuals be the true powers of the True Realm!
And these five individuals, each hold malevolent causes with me!
Almost the instant of realizing this, an overwhelming aura of cause and effect rushed forward, causing Ning Fan to feel a hair-raising sense.
Once he merely wished to break the cycle of fate and reincarnation, yet didnât even know how to break it.
Now through Han Eâs sparse words of the nine stone pillarsâ story, he seemingly... knows whose hands fate and reincarnation lie.
Han E: "Oh? It seems youâve understood, in this case, there seems little need for more stories..."
Ning Fan: "Thank you, senior, for your guidance!"
Bei Xiao Man: "What are you all talking about! What kind of broken story is this, it has no beginning or end, just named the nine pillars, and thatâs it? Then what..."
Ning Fan: "Then itâs up to me to answer this seniorâs question..."
If not for Han Eâs enlightenment, Ning Fan even if he could vaguely sense numerous causes involving reverse saints on him, would struggle to determine the exact amount, furthermore difficult to judge whether they bore goodwill or malice towards him.
That level is not what the current Ning Fan can comprehend.
Yet Han E can effortlessly see through the worldly intertwined causes, as if her eyes can easily pierce through everything of the Six Paths of Reincarnation...
The malevolent causes lie with five people.
Thinking of Chaos Kunâs cause, Ning Fanâs Reverse Sea Sword and Heaven Sealing Art respond as if that unfamiliar Chaos Kun Ancestor offered Ning Fan two paths from the start. Either wield the Reverse Sea Sword and become a disciple of the Chaos Kun Sect, or be fished out from reincarnation and destroyed like the Ancestral Demon of the East!
Thinking of Hong Junâs cause, Ning Fanâs Buzhou Virtue Umbrella and Ant Lord Tao Mountain responded, as if that ancestor of Hong Jun also gave Ning Fan two choices, either become a disciple of Hong Jun or have oneâs soul scatter forever like the Ant Lord.
Considering the Bloodline Awakeningâs cause... well, the opponent seemingly provided no choice at all, simply wished to eliminate him, else there wouldnât have been a cross-reincarnation palm strike to kill.
Thinking of Ancient cause... two images flashed in his mind, one is taking the Ninth Mountain Sword Tassel and succeeding as the mountain master, the other is a butterfly burnt by the Third Yang of Ancient... is this equally two choices.
Contemplating the Mountain and Sea Masterâs cause... likewise, two images appeared, one is joining the Shanhai Arbiter and watching over primordial peaches and green peaches, the other is being refined into demon venerable sacrificial meat like Demon Venerable Silkworm Throng, equally two choices...
Shanyinâs words:
It seems that Niyue refers to the Purple Dou Immortal Sovereign. Thereâs no need to elaborate on the various favors bestowed, but the Purple Dou Immortal Sovereign values me so highly, possibly hoping I will inherit his ideals... Why do I not sense the Fourth Step he left for me... Instead of cultivating me into another Immortal Emperor Hui Shi, it seems he prefers that I experience the world, enjoy peace and happiness... This good cause, surprisingly, has nothing to do with the Fourth Step!
As for Divine King Niyueâs good cause... the Grievance Technique, Secret Art of Prestige, Momentum Character Secret, Black Star Technique... From the moment I began my cultivation journey, Iâve encountered countless causes and effects, most notably... this person is my father-in-law! I can now sense the good cause within, but I donât feel any expectation from this Divine King... Or perhaps, his greatest expectation isnât guiding me onto any path of Reversing Saint, but... taking care of his daughter...
In a moment of confusion, Ning Fan recalled a scene from the past where he played chess with the Heavenly Emperor.
The Heavenly Emperor is Mu Weiliangâs father, so what I saw then might not have been just the Heavenly Emperor, but also...
[In this world, thereâs white and black, life and death, sunlight and shadow, gentlemen and scoundrels. To my view, the Star Technique is akin to a game of chess, black star and silver star, the strongest and the weakest, all contained within the game...]
[Who I am is not important; this is merely a lingering dream...]
I originally thought it was just a lingering dream of the Heavenly Emperor, but perhaps thereâs a deeper cause?
[On the first day, you didnât care about winning or losing, but I tried with all my might, and you ended in defeat!]
[On the second day, you sought victory wholeheartedly, winning three games, but disrupted your mental state, lost four games and ended in defeat as well.]
[But you must know, life is a game of chess, the key to winning or losing isnât who wins the most, but... who wins the last game! Even if you win six consecutive games, if the final battle is lost, the kingdom will change hands... This is the chess of life!]
[Broaden your perspectives; the stars in the sky arenât only those that shine!]
Looking back now, every sentence seems to carry deeper meanings!
The key to victory or defeat, the key to victory or defeat...
Back then, the Heavenly Emperor seemed like he was reminding the current me about how to compete with the Saints and Reversals!
Indeed, why could Black Star Technique heal Bei Xiao Manâs scarlet dragon damage? I didnât understand then, but now, I do.
This Black Star Technique was originally created for the love of his daughter!
Perhaps the Heavenly Emperorâs Black Star Technique has other contingencies, influencing the ultimate fate of this Northern Barbarian Measure Catastrophe...
"Young friend, you seem distracted, yet I cannot fathom the causes and effects entwined with your thoughts. This is the first time since I unified with the Six Paths of Reincarnation that something remains unclear to me..." Han E said helplessly, never understanding Han Yuanjiâs thoughts throughout her life, now her disciple puzzles her too.
"Itâs normal for seniors to not see through, after all, what Iâm pondering is the cause of the Sparrow God Kidd... The legacy he left for me, I will fulfill it, a pity though, that road has nothing to do with any Fourth Step in this world..."
"So it is... father..." Han E realized suddenly.
She is merely unified with the Six Paths of Reincarnation now, thus cannot see through the causes of the Master of Reincarnation, nor can anyone decipher him fully.
Even combined forces of the Reversals cannot see through Father Kingâs entirety, hence theyâre so cautious and fearful, attempting to erase all traces Father King left in the world...
The good cause of the Northern Dipper also doesnât require explanation. The Slaughter Emperorâs inheritance is evident, yet Ning Fan doesnât feel any ulterior motives or ambitions from the Northern Dipper, only a solemn pledge to guard the Blood Realm lineage... This good cause, again, has no connection to the Fourth Step.
As for the good cause of Senxiang...
Ning Fanâs mind conjures three scenes: Senluoâs head suspended, the Lord of the Netherâs head suspended, Netherworld Ghost Flower... such causes are extremely complex, but unrelated to the Fourth Step, seeking something else...
The good cause of Hui Chen...
T-Tai Su Lightning Diagram, True Thunder Realm Reversal Technique, both related to Immortal Emperor Hui Shi, yet distinct from the Fourth Step.
The good cause of Mie Gu...
In terms of causes, Mie Gu appears to be one of the Nine Reversals of the current True Realm, aligning with the Oblivion Pillar.
Could this be why God-Extinguishing Shield prefers to be devoured by me, to protect me?
Also, it seems to connect countless good causes!
Rogue devil, Old Ancestor She Lan, Wu Laoba, Yang Zhu, Ya Tiangou, Sparrow God Kidd, True Fantasy River Demon, Immortal Stone, Shi Gui, Old Turtle Zhenwu...
Even Dao Barbarian Mountain, Landao Feng...
All seemingly related to this Oblivion Immortal Sovereign, though the reason for such protection and obsession remains unclear...
Is there something on my body that makes him so concerned... Yet in that concern, thereâs no hint of arrogance, rather a sense of humility, as if heâs requesting something from me...
[Haha, old me doesnât fancy your gratitude! But should a day come where you see through the truth of the Dreamland Realm, old me might indeed have a small favor to ask you... If that day truly arrives, should I make a request, young friend, please donât refuse...]
In Ning Fanâs mind, vividly emerges the scene of True Fantasy River Demonâs request.
Seeing through the truth of the Dreamland Realm!
Does the current me count as... seeing through the truth!
[In this life, I must shatter this firmament, drain this Dao blood! Only then can I escape this world, swim back home, return to Weituo Templeâs big water vat...]
Ning Fan recalls Old Turtle Zhenwuâs words once more.
That is a turtle yearning to return home, even if it means falling eternally into black fortune!
Weituo Temple, Weituo...
In my current portrayal of Lu Bei, seemingly originating from Mixed Kun Holy Sectâs Weituo Temple, is it coincidence, or an indication from Oblivion Immortal Sovereign through reincarnation, his request to the current me...
When Senior Han E mentioned Oblivion Immortal Sovereign, seemed to use the phrase "from beyond the heavens"...
From beyond the heavens...
Returning home...
Ning Fan vaguely comprehends something.
Oblivion Immortal Sovereign may not have arranged a Fourth Step for him, rather awaiting Ning Fan to chart a path home for him...
Senior Chiweiâs words...
The good cause of Chiwei lies right before me, all heâs permitting Ning Fan is to act freely, likely his hope is to let Ning Fan stir trouble.
He hasnât arranged a Fourth Step, merely seeking amusement!
As for the good cause Two Yin Yang...
Ning Fanâs heart warms.
Old monster certainly wonât provide a Fourth Step, old monster may be too lazy to reach the Fourth Step...
Old monster simply wishes for his disciple and discipleâs spouse a fulfilling conclusion...
Han E: "Understood?"
Ning Fan: "Understood. Before me lie five roads requiring choices, stemming from five ill causes, perhaps this is why I can meet you, Senior."
Han E: "Precisely! My meeting you can deceive the Saints of Mount Wansheng, but never those of the Reversals. After all, Reversal entrants possess omniscience. They know everything about you, arranging everything for you. You believe infinite possibilities lie ahead, yet all stem from the predetermined paths of Fate Reincarnation, leading to an outcome called destiny. Such destiny is hard to perceive beneath the Fourth Step, leading beings to pursue causes, ending merely as seeking Dao in books, failing to influence the writer of the book..."
Ning Fan: "I wonât follow their arranged path."
Han E: "Then you can only walk the path you crafted, the Road of Nifan. And this path, no matter which you choose, ultimately leads to... failure."
Han Eâs eyes glowed with the light of Six Paths of Reincarnation, easily discerning the unchangeable destiny within Ning Fan.
[Defeat]
No matter how one struggles, no matter how one resists, billions of cause lines inevitably lead to the road of failure.
To change this destiny, only one method exists: activating the Five Spirits Chessboard, uniting the five Reversal Saints, to alter this fate!
But...
Since you already have five Reverse enemies, you wonât have the assistance of five Reverse Saints anymore, and this embodies the meaning of Supreme Ninety-Five.
Nine is the peak of reversal, let alone among the Nine Reversals, two are suspended, making them practically useless.
Among the remaining Calamity and Annihilation Lords, one is indifferent to everything in the world, while the other cannot care "for" anything... Among the Nine Reversals, thereâs not one who can be your ally!
And beyond the Nine Reversals...
Chiwei has the power but lacks the qualifications to initiate the Five Spirits Chessboard.
Liangyi has already gone mad; your many encounters with Liangyi are just shadows of the past lingering in the traces of reincarnation.
Zidou has already perished, and even illuminating Unreturnable is difficult, with no excess strength to recall the world of mortals.
Niyue has long been silent, returned to the worldâs original place, yet unknown when she will return.
Neither Beidou nor Senxiang can return; they cannot save themselves, how can you expect them to save you?
You thought you had a vast background, but itâs all just illusions, with only those wicked causes being genuinely real!
In the face of real calamity, you truly have no one Reversal to rely on, this is the bloody reality!
Connections?
Haha.
You call the crown prince of the former dynasty a connection?
And still sitting in the Eternal Divine Dynasty of Five Reversals!
This identity is not even as good as a grassroot hero, who at least has the chance to survive amid chaos, build a city high, store abundant grains, and slowly claim kingship...
Itâs different for you, even if you were mediocre, youâve come so far today.
The remnants of the former dynasty might see a peaceful end if theyâre mediocre, but those who pose threats only have one path to a dead end...
Han E closed her eyes, seemingly unable to bear seeing the myriad causes and effects of Ning Fan, which are iterations of despair, suffering, destruction... but ultimately, still ending in failure.
"But if I follow the path arranged by the Five Reversals, can I truly achieve a beautiful conclusion?" Ning Fan questioned calmly.
He did not confront Destiny and Reincarnation with seething rage!
He had long understood the invincibility and the unyielding nature of Destiny and Reincarnation.
Han E: "If you take the path designated by the Five Reversals, at least you and her can remain parallel throughout generations, never meeting, each safely on your own..."
Ning Fan: "I can bear the longing for her, endure not to seek her, not to disturb her, making myself inconceivable, unattainable... However, even if I donât pursue those reincarnations of her, she still searches for me. Since you can decipher reincarnations, then look at your sister, is she truly leading a good life there! Everyone dares to scheme against the ninth daughter of the bygone Divine King! How can you ask me to ignore this!"
Ning Fan: "This is a path doomed to fail, but as long as she hasnât given up looking for me, I will not lay down my sword! As long as the malice of the world does not strip away from her, my sword will not be laid down! This is... the vow of reincarnation!"
Boom!
It was as if the Bell of Samsara abruptly resonated, echoing across the Three Great Realms, Endless Illusionary Dreams!
Weak ones couldnât hear, but every being above a saint heard this sound!
Someone actually made a great vow of reincarnation, to defy with a doomed life, opposing the Reversals, preferring to die rather than submit!
"You!" Han Eâs beautiful eyes widened in anger.
She risked intervening in the cause of Dust Calamity to see Ning Fan and persuade him back, representing the Real Reversals.
But Ning Fan stood directly against the Reverse Saints! It was a public declaration of war! How arrogant!
Han E was moved by Ning Fanâs deep affection for his little sister, but she was frustrated by Ning Fanâs self-disregard!
This little butterfly was retrieved from reincarnation after countless hardships by Little Mei and Han Yuanji.
For an inevitably failing matter, not cherishing his life so dearly, wouldnât it betray Little Mei and Han Yuanjiâs efforts!
Your determination to save others would bring hope to others, and after countless hopes are shattered, it transforms into a heavier cruelty...
Ha..
Han Yuanji, oh Han Yuanji, your disciple is indeed like you, head hard as iron, completely unpersuadable.
I have tried my best... but in the end, I couldnât even protected your disciple; I could do nothing...
.[Little Mei, youâre so good-looking, why donât you have a chest or a butt though]
[Daoist Liangyi, please behave yourself!]
[Haha finally achieved the Seven Chi Demon Seed, Little Mei, take a look at the big demon seed in my crotch, this move can help you enhance your chest and... damn, why are you drawing a sword!]
[Daoist Han, please! Behave!]
[Little Mei, I just created a new swordsmanship, named Plum Blossom Opens Once Life and Death, guess who I plan to give this sword art to!]
[Han Yuanji, youâre the fool!]
[Little Mei, I created another technique called Anger Kill Three Thousand Immortals, to give it... What? You donât want it? Already angered them?]
Haha, the masterâs provocation, indeed the disciple also... provokes...
[Little Mei, youâre as important as my great treasure, I will never let anyone harm you!]
[Say! Who made my Little Mei cry!]
[Isnât it just losing a sister, thatâs nothing... *damn* calm down, I mean I can bring her back...]
"Donât get involved, the cause and effect tied within it are not for a little Desolate Saint to touch."
[I hate it when people call me small! This petty matter, Iâm deciding it!]
[Wait for my good news!]
Wait for your good news?
But where is the good news.
Where have you vanished...?
Iâm sorry, Han Yuanji, you said you would save my sister, from the beginning I didnât believe it.
So when you ultimately didnât accomplish it, Iâm not blaming you.
I donât blame you for uttering wild words, because from the start I knew, one personâs strength cannot defy the world, not even a Reverse Saint.
This is something even I canât do, how can I impose it on others.
But you gave me hope, and then disappeared, gone to who knows where, that hope ultimately transformed into long despair.
I searched the river of time, only to find rumors of you becoming a madman, not even knowing why you went insane...
I only knew you were schemed against over my matter, thus fused with the Six Paths of Reincarnation, eternally losing the true self, seeking your cause, trying to pull you from reincarnation but the answer saddened me... you went to another reincarnation I didnât know about, for a disciple youâd never met, and turned into a madman in that reincarnation...
As for saving my sister, you seem to have forgotten it long ago.
But I do not blame you... thereâs no extra strength for blame, merely embracing your ever-fading reincarnation has exhausted all my strength... perhaps, this is the Reversalsâ scheme against me, they used you... but I do not regret...
Now that Iâve seen your disciple, I vaguely understand your feelings.
What a foolish child, as foolish as Xiaojiu, there will never be two such foolish people in the world again... They deserve a better ending, so you are willing to give everything, right...
But Iâm sorry, my current strength canât even slightly protect him, heâs just a pawn used by the Reversal Saints to block the Dust Calamity.
The good news is that if I donât die in the Dust Calamity battle with Chiwei, those Reversal Saints wonât easily take action just because your disciple challenges them.
The bad news is, he didnât choose the path of peace and joy as you wished, but instead chose a path of suffering...
Ning Fan: "I answered Seniorâs question about which path to choose, but Senior hasnât told me if you are an enemy or a friend..."
Han E: "Youâre indeed Han Yuanjiâs disciple, truly stubborn, asking silly questions even now. Mistress Xiao Man, do you think Iâm an enemy or a friend..."
Bei Xiao Man, who had been listening to the heavenly book, finally interjected with delight: "Youâre a friend! A good sister! As long as you join me in cursing... cursing Uncle Zhang Dao, calling him stubborn, and donât compete with me for him, youâll be my good sister for life!"
Han E: "...Then you can safely be my good sister, I already have a stubborn one at home, Iâm not interested in yours."
Ning Fan: "Is this a silly question? Didnât Senior say that if I want to overturn the Dust Decision, youâd be my enemy?"
Han E: "I also said I could be a friend for Xiaojiu, yet you didnât hear that. If you and Xiaojiu can truly fulfill a beautiful dream here, then even if I get caught in the Dust Calamity, joining the Reversal Saintsâ schemes, what harm does it do? Theyâve long been displeased with my Zhou Tianâs merit. It might seem like youâre overturning the case, but the consequences may extend further, comprising more interests that concern the Reversal Saints..."
"Perhaps leveraging this to destroy the remnants of Chiwei or using Chiweiâs hand to ruin Wa Huangâs Zhou Tianâs merit, any outcome aids in stabilizing the overall reincarnation, benefitting the Reversal Saints. As for your small Nifan path, itâs merely a lead connecting these causes and effects, just a small episode in the Dust Decision! Did you think you are the core of the Reversal Saintsâ scheming? A bunch of Reversal Saints plotting against an Immortal King, for what? For your mere forty-three hues of luck or for your stubborn mind as hard as Han Yuanjiâs?"
"Donât belittle yourself, but donât inflate yourself either! Your current reincarnation vow, to those high above, is but the buzzing of an annoying fly, entirely insignificant!"
"Of course, considering youâre a bit troublesome as a little fly, in the final battle ten days later, they might not be courteous, perhaps teaching you a lesson, so be wise... As for my current self, I can provide you no assistance..."
"But your feelings for Xiaojiu, I indeed understand them. I finally know why Xiaojiu is willing to give everything for a butterfly, because that butterfly is worth it... In fact, even if your answer doesnât satisfy me, Iâve already seen your heart for Xiaojiu. Words may deceive, but a personâs Daoist thought cannot, at least not me. Your Liangyi Twenty-Seven Elements, or it would be more precise to call it Twenty-Seven Yin-Yang... hehe, such a special Twenty-Seven Yin-Yang, such evident intentions... and this is love whispering louder than countless words."
Han E had already understood Ning Fanâs intentions upon seeing his Twenty-Seven Yin-Yang.
The reason for kindly advising him was merely hoping Ning Fan would live well and not betray the sentiments of the departed... But now that Ning Fan has declared war on the Reversal Saints, those words naturally wonât be mentioned again.
What do you think this lad is recklessly cultivating Yin-Yang!
Demon Yin-Yang: Phoenix, Gengwu, Dao Carp, Heavenly Bull, Underworld Sparrow, Light Ant, Nine-Tailed Fox, Fu Li, Butterfly.
If others had the opportunity to cultivate various dominant positions, they would either specialize in one or gather strengths while compensating for weaknesses.
But this lad!
At first glance, it seems like a random choice.
But looking closely, youâll find the Yin-Yang he cultivates has a focus!
Ning Fan cultivates Phoenix Yin-Yang, focusing on rebirth from fire, immortality!
He cultivates Gengwu Yin-Yang, focusing on its vast blood energy, plus Gengwuâs Lost Artâ[One Life out of a Hundred Deaths], with a one percent chance of rebirth upon death!
He cultivates Dao Carp, focusing on fish swallowing the sea and transforming into a dragon, then cultivating a protective Dragon Pearl for preservation.
He cultivates Heavenly Bull, seemingly having found some skin pattern fortune in the Enlightenment Realm, cultivating the immortal silkworm skin pattern.
He cultivates Underworld Sparrow for the billion spirit splits immortality arts of the Immemorial Dark Sparrow Tribe.
He cultivates Light Ant for the Light Bearer Immortality and Rebirth through Light of the Light Ants.
He cultivates Nine-Tailed Fox for the Ten Steps Bow Technique and Swallow Fish to Increase Life Technique of the Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe.
He cultivates Fu Li for the Lost World Palace Dao, undying and imperishable.
He cultivates Butterfly to unite the above eight racesâ immortal powers into one.
How afraid of death is he to cultivate so many immortal preservation methods!
But thatâs not all; thereâs also Magic Yin-Yang!
Magic Yin-Yang: Wood, Poison, Mountain, Thought, Black Fortune, Undying, Star, Medicine, Sword.
The Wood Yin-Yang now possesses the power of the Ancient Deities, no need to elaborate.
Poison Yin-Yang primarily cultivates invulnerability to all poisons, while seemingly comprehending a thread of the Immortal God Silkworm Poison in the Enlightenment Realm...
Mountain Yin-Yang primarily cultivates the spirit power attached to the Barbarian God Punishment Mountain, seemingly suggesting that after death, the spirits return to the mountain and sea as undying and imperishable...
Thought Yin-Yang primarily cultivates the immortality of divine sense.
Black Fortune Yin-Yang primarily cultivates the immortality of fortune.
Undying Yin-Yang is the Undying Devil Vein.
Star Yin-Yang is the Black Star Technique undying.
Medicine Yin-Yang is the Five-Color Medicine Soul undying.
Sword Yin-Yang unites all undying, forming it like a sword, then kills to seize vitality and immortality...
How afraid of death is he to cultivate so much undying!
Divine Yin-Yang: Rain, Dark, Thunder, War, Kill, Wind, Flower, Snow, Moon.
Rain Yin-Yang primarily cultivates the Way of Eternal Undying Rain.
Dark Yin-Yang primarily cultivates Illusory Demon Dust and the Dao of Illusory Life.
Thunder Yin-Yang primarily cultivates the Reverse Fate True Thunder Dao.
War Yin-Yang primarily cultivates the War Intent Immortality Arts.
Kill Yin-Yang primarily cultivates the Northern Dipper Immortality Arts.
Wind Yin-Yang primarily cultivates the Post-Wind Immortality Arts.
Flower Yin-Yang primarily cultivates Chiweiâs Eternal Immortality.
Snow Yin-Yang primarily cultivates the Zidou Reincarnation Wind and Snow Immortality.
Moon Yin-Yang primarily cultivates the Immemorial Reverse Moon undying and imperishable.
In this way, everything Ning Fan cultivates is imbued with the undying Dao.
Should it enter the Source Stream of Dao in the Taiji Life and Death Realm, all twenty-seven undying elements could compare to the Undying Daoism, and a strand of the inextinguishable could be born from Daoism!
But this undying and imperishable is not something Ning Fan seeks for himself.
This lad wishes to sacrifice all that is inextinguishable upon becoming a Saint to exchange for Xiaojiuâs indestructible reincarnation through ages!
Han E never believed in words spoken lightly.
But she chose to trust things witnessed personally, for that is the most genuine love story in the world!
Just like Han Yuanji many years ago!
"The more Merit Saints there are in this world, the stronger those holding Zhou Tianâs merits become."
"The best love story Iâve heard wasnât spoken; it was someone who, although able to become a Saint with three corpses, quietly chose the path of merit just to stay in a corner, enhancing my light a little... Though capable of entering merit and reversing, they worried about harming my Zhou Tianâs merit, stupidly standing still under just one person..."
"You are indeed Han Yuanjiâs disciple, hard to find another pair of such stubborn fools... But wanting to die here is too early; compared to scheming against a mere little Immortal King, my demise is what those people care about more. After all, the seventh daughter of Divine King Niyue shouldnât exist in this world, living only because a fool defied heaven and earth to revive the Seven Apricot. Every additional existence of the Seven Apricot increases the possibility of Divine King Niyueâs reawakening. Xiaojiu is not your weakness, but my death point... I depart against the moon to exchange for this reincarnation dream, hoping this moon never sets..."
