"Rumble!"
"Rumble!"
Amidst a deafening rumble, the gigantic ball of water formed from the Four Divine Spirit Pillars began to compress and condense into an amber-like crystal.
This was the completed form of the Four Spirits Sealing Art. When the ball of water, which covered an area of a million miles in circumference, was compressed into a stone monument that was less than ten miles in circumference, the Four Spirits Sealing Art formed by the Four Spirits Heavenly Pillars would become a domain that absolutely could not be invaded.
Kirin, who had transformed into the pillar of the Zhu Hai Mountain Range, would forever be unable to move. She would become the seal at the center of the Zhu Hai Mountain Range, forever suppressing the Immortal.
This was the ending that Kirin desired. This way, the Qi Hai Mountain Range would never come into contact with her daughters again, and she would be able to be with the Immortal forever, never to be separated again.
This was a selfish decision that didn't consider the consequences. She had abandoned the Zhu Hai Mountain Range and her throne, all for the sake of being with the one she loved.
"Now … I can no longer stop …" Having exhausted all of her strength, Kirin collapsed into the Seven Seas Immortal's embrace after pushing the Four Spirits Seal to its final stage.
Her body was incredibly weak, but her heart was incredibly content. This was Kirin's current state. Her blissful and radiant eyes were the best proof of this.
"Sigh … you really are an idiot …" The Seven Seas Immortal hugged the powerless Kirin and sighed softly.
"If we do this, both of us will be bound here and won't be able to move forward."
"It's fine. It's fine even if we can't move forward." Kirin blinked and lazily lay in the Seven Seas Immortal's embrace.
These days of peace and tranquility were exactly what she longed for.
Even though this was the same as it had been for the past hundreds or thousands of years, having the one she loved by her side was enough for her.
She was finally no longer alone.
Even if she could only live in this tiny world of the Four Spirits Seal, as long as she could be with him, this would be her paradise.
The thing she had been searching for was right here, right before her eyes.
"Qi Hai, promise me that you won't go anywhere. Just stay with me like this."
After using the Four Spirits Sealing Extinction, Kirin no longer had the strength to do anything else. This was the last resort that he would only use during the most dangerous moments of the Myriad Seas Mountain Range.
Even so, she was still worried because Qi Hai was truly too powerful. Perhaps even the entire Ocean Mountain Range wouldn't be able to restrain him.
However, he was clearly not at his peak. Compared to the last time they saw him, the transcendent power of his existence had weakened a lot.
Of course, even then, no one in the Various Seas Mountain Range was a match for him.
Perhaps only a forbidden technique like the Four Spirits Sealing Extinction, which was formed from the power of the entire Great Thousand World, could restrain him.
It was impossible for Kirin to truly harm him by merely restraining him. That was why Kirin had chosen this method in order to obtain more time to be with him.
Even though she really wanted this world to be eternal, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to achieve it even if she gambled the power of the entire Zhu Hai Mountain Range.
In that case, she hoped that it would take a little longer. Ten thousand years was too short. It would at least take a hundred thousand years, or even a million years …
"Mm, it just so happens that I'm a little tired."
From the very beginning, Qi Hai had no intention of resisting Kirin. Just as he said, he was a little tired, and there was nothing wrong with resting here for a while.
This wasn't the "fatigue" that mortals could feel. Rather, it was the unbearable lightness of an ancient being that had experienced the vicissitudes of the Milky Way and the destruction of the world.
What Kirin sensed was the trace of weakness on his body. It was a sign that the trajectory of his existence was changing once again.
"Let me sleep for a while."
Just like how Kirin could act like a spoiled child in Qi Hai's embrace without any reservations, Qi Hai trusted Kirin a hundred percent.
From the very beginning, there had never been anything that could be called "hostility" between him and her. Even the Qilin, who was mad with jealousy, only hoped to monopolize the Immortal.
Now, her wish had been fulfilled. The Four Spirits Sealing Extinction was about to be completed, and it could isolate them from all external interference.
This was the love nest she had created for herself and Qi Hai. It was a loving and sweet home for the two of them.
Apart from the Four Spirits Sealing Extinction, she would leave everything else to her adorable daughters.
The mature and steady Blue Dragon would definitely inherit Qi Hai's legacy. She would command all the races and become the ruler of the Myriad Seas and Mountains.
The White Tiger was a bloodthirsty beast. The chaotic and disorderly place in the Western Battlefield was very suitable for her. She would definitely like that bloody battlefield.
The smartest Xuanwu didn't need to teach her anything. She could clearly see the future of the Myriad Seas and Mountains.
The only one she was worried about was her youngest daughter, ZhuQue. She was too naive, and her cheerful and lively personality made her easily deceived. She hoped that her three older sisters would take good care of her.
These were the daughters she was proud of. They were holy beasts that she and Qi Hai had given birth to together. They would definitely do well. There was no mistake in leaving everything to them.
"Darling, we can finally be together."
This time, it was Kirin's turn to hug the sleeping Deity. The sky gradually closed and the ripples reflected on the surface of the sea. That was the final signal that the world was beginning to close.
No matter how many times he looked at the immortal in his arms, he would never get tired of it. That soft touch, that tired face that made one feel pity for him, all of it made Kirin feel intoxicated.
This was her final destination, the world of her dreams.
She had been waiting for this day, and now her dream had come true.
Ten, nine, eight, seven … Endless heaven and earth mysterious yellow energy descended, weaving into an enormous stone monument. This was the final step, the heavenly monument erected by the four spirits seal.
Six, five, four, three, two … Just as the Qilin was hugging the Immortal and waiting for the Four Spirits Absolute Seal to completely close and everything to return to silence, four streams of power that were connected to her bloodline smashed fiercely into the sealed space of the Four Spirits Absolute Seal.
Crack!
The eastern heavenly pillar was the first to shatter. Countless huge cracks appeared behind this heavenly pillar like a spider web.
Then, the western, southern, and northern heavenly pillars. At the last moment of the Four Spirits Absolute Seal's completion, which was also the moment when the Four Spirits Absolute Seal's fluctuations were the strongest, the powers that were connected to Kirin's bloodline attacked at the same time, breaking the circuit of the Four Spirits Absolute Seal.
What's going on? What happened!?
Kirin looked at the Four Spirits Absolute Seal in shock. They were the only ones in the Various Seas Mountain Range who could do something like this.
"Now's the time. Reverse the Four Spirits Absolute Seal and exile mother!" Xuanwu's voice sounded first.
It was she, who was the best at divination among the four holy beasts, who came up with this plan. This was a counterattack that used the circuit of the Four Spirits Absolute Seal to send the central holy beast, Kirin, into the spatial turbulence.
"Apologies, mother."
The Blue Dragon's figure appeared on the eastern heavenly pillar. It looked at Kirin, who was grabbing the immortal (actually, hugging her) with a guilty but resolute gaze.
