After absorbing most of Wang Lin's life force, the death aura around him slowly loosened and flew toward Li Muwan. It hovered in front of Li Muwan and used a special method to absorb the life force from Wang Lin's body into Li Muwan's Nascent Soul.
The Xiang clan ancestor slowly said, "The so-called Qixi technique requires one to endure for seven days. If this Nascent Soul can endure for seven days, it will naturally be able to awaken."
Wang Lin remained silent as he stared at Li Muwan's Nascent Soul. He had no regrets in his heart.
Li Muwan seemed to be able to sense all of this, and her body trembled slightly. However, the body of a Nascent Soul had no tears, but it could turn into a silent sadness.
The death aura around Li Muwan's Nascent Soul continued to absorb life force into Li Muwan's body. Gradually, Li Muwan's Nascent Soul began to solidify.
Time slowly passed. The first day, the second day …. However, on the third day, Li Muwan's Nascent Soul stopped. This was because Wang Lin's life force had completely disappeared.
"Unfortunately … the Qixi technique is the number one technique in the ancient times that defied the heavens and changed fate. This technique is so powerful that even a dead person can be completely resurrected. However, the prerequisite is that there is enough life force!
"The amount of life force transferred by the Qixi technique is not equal, but completely unequal. The Qixi technique represents seven days, and with each additional day, the amount of life force required is a hundred times greater than the previous day. As a result, on the most critical seventh day, the amount of life force required is unimaginably large!
"Your life force can only last for two days. Even if the Old Man didn't take half of your life force as a condition, you wouldn't be able to last for three days!
"Xu Mu, do you have anything else that can increase your life force?" The Xiang clan ancestor slowly asked.
Without any more life force, Li Muwan's Nascent Soul began to dissipate again. This time, the speed at which it dissipated was faster and more intense than before, as if it could completely disappear at any moment.
"Continue to absorb my life force …" Wang Lin looked at Li Muwan with a gentle expression. This woman had waited for him for hundreds of years, all because of a promise.
After a thousand years of cultivation, only one woman had walked into his heart. However, after she left, in that endless loneliness, in those bits of memories, he slowly realized that he had always cared about her … He looked at Li Muwan, at the sadness of life and death, of homelessness … There was a distance between the two of them, not far, like the two sides of a river. On one side was him, and on the other side was her. Between them was the pain and pain of a thousand years, turning into a river that flowed into the distance.
However, no matter how turbulent the river of pain was, no matter how much it flowed, it could not wash away the determination in her eyes.
Once again, the sound of the zither filled with sorrow echoed in his ears. The sun rose and the moon sank. It was as if the zither music had built a bridge between Wang Lin and Li Muwan. It was as if the two of them could truly feel each other's existence.
The aura of death swirled around Li Muwan as it separated from Li Muwan's body. One side circled around Li Muwan, and the other side circled around Wang Lin.
Life force flowed out of Wang Lin's body along with the aura of death, fusing into Li Muwan's Nascent Soul. Even if he had to use a hundred, a thousand times more life force to exchange for Li Muwan's life force, Wang Lin would have no regrets!
He looked calmly at Li Muwan, and a gentle smile could be seen on his face. His features once again aged, and wrinkles spread out across his face. Vast amounts of life force flowed away from him, making it seem as if he had lived a thousand years.
There wasn't much life force left in Wang Lin's body. The speed at which it was being absorbed caused Wang Lin to feel even more clearly the call of the Heavenly Dao.
He took a deep breath, and an even stronger life force exploded out from his body. This explosion seemed to turn into a storm of life that swept out in all directions. The countless heads in the area suddenly began to shine with a mysterious light.
"Eee!"
Inside the coffin, the Xiang Clan ancestor stared in shock. At this moment, the lid of the coffin tilted to the side, revealing an emaciated body that looked like a corpse!
A cold and emotionless gaze filled with death aura shot out from the corpse's eyes and landed on Wang Lin's body.
On a cultivation planet in the Alliance Star System, Wang Lin's original body was hiding in a cultivation sect, acting as a low level disciple. At this moment, he was cultivating, and a large amount of life force was rapidly dissipating from his body.
However, his original body didn't do anything to stop this dissipation. He calmly looked at the sky and silently pondered.
His cold gaze, which had always been cold, revealed a hint of gentleness at this moment, just like his avatar.
The life force that entered his avatar's body through a special method was being consumed in a large amount, and it continued to enter Li Muwan's Nascent Soul. Li Muwan's Nascent Soul gradually became corporeal once more.
Time slowly passed. The third day, the fourth day … On the fifth day, Wang Lin's original body was dim and his red hair was dark. A large amount of life force had been consumed. Even though his original body had the body of an ancient god, it couldn't withstand it.
After the fourth day of the Qi Xi Art, Li Muwan's Nascent Soul completely condensed. There was a trace of life force inside her Nascent Soul, and the death aura had been completely expelled.
However, without Wang Lin's life force, this sliver of life force couldn't be stabilized and couldn't awaken.
Four days was the limit!
On the fifth day, Wang Lin couldn't pass it!
"The Old Man can only do this much. Your life force isn't enough, so you naturally can't resurrect this Nascent Soul."
The Xiang Clan ancestor calmly looked at Wang Lin, then lay back down in the coffin. A death aura whirlwind swept up Li Muwan and Wang Lin, sending them out of the tunnel and into the crack.
During this process, Wang Lin immediately formed a seal with both hands. Numerous restrictions surrounded Li Muwan's Nascent Soul, slowing down the dissipation of the trace of life force.
The moment they rushed out of the crack, two gazes immediately landed on Wang Lin's body.
When Shimizu saw Wang Lin, he was stunned and didn't say anything.
As for Xiang Yundong, he seemed to have known this would happen. He glanced at Wang Lin and then withdrew his gaze.
Wang Lin carefully placed Li Muwan's Nascent Soul into his bag of holding. He looked at Shimizu and calmly said, "Senior Brother, let's go."
Shimizu let out a sigh. He waved his sleeves and took Wang Lin with him. They broke through the sky and left.
Xiang Yundong looked in the direction Wang Lin disappeared in. A smile appeared on his face as he muttered to himself, "Xu Mu, although the Old Man schemed against you, he didn't hide anything. With your intelligence, you must have known that the price of helping you restore your Nascent Soul was a large amount of life force. Since that's the case, we don't owe each other anything!"
Shimizu and Wang Lin turned into two meteors that flashed across the sky.
"Senior Brother, do you know what this is?"
As they flew, Wang Lin had been silent the entire time. He slapped his bag of holding and the Heaven-Avoiding Coffin flew out and landed before him.
Qing Shui's figure paused as he looked at the Heaven-Avoiding Coffin. There was a flash of red light in his right eye. After a long time, he said, "I haven't seen this before, but there is dense celestial spiritual energy inside. It is clearly something from the Celestial Realm. In addition, there is a very special power inside, like some kind of law. This item should be used for healing, right?"
Hearing that even Shimizu didn't know what this item was, Wang Lin let out a sigh. He put away the Heaven-Avoiding Coffin and softly said, "It should be used to heal injuries, but I don't know the method."
Shimizu didn't continue to ask. He looked into the distance and pondered a bit before suddenly saying, "Xu Mu, although you didn't enter the celestial pool, you still passed the test. My trip to the Alliance Star System will be very dangerous, so I'm afraid I won't be able to let you accompany me. As a result, you will have to rely on yourself in the Alliance Star System!"
Wang Lin nodded, but his heart felt bitter. He could feel the call of the heavens getting closer and closer.
"Call the Wind, Summon the Rain, and Magic Arsenal. You already know Call the Wind. As for the other two, I'll teach them to you now!"
As Shimizu spoke, his two fingers formed a sword and he pointed it between Wang Lin's eyebrows. A powerful celestial origin energy entered Wang Lin's body.
At the same time, all the information about Summon the Rain and Magic Arsenal appeared in Wang Lin's mind. Shimizu's actions could be considered an inheritance!
Inheritance and imparting were two completely different things. Only direct descendants of master and disciple would be imparted. In this way, it could guarantee that the imparted skill would not be lost in the slightest. In fact, it could even reduce unnecessary detours and directly allow the inheritor to comprehend the skill the most.
Shimizu looked at Wang Lin and let out a sigh. At the beginning, he only wanted to repay his teacher for Wang Lin. Although his teacher was joking, it was the only thing he could repay after awakening.
He didn't care too much about Wang Lin. Even if he saved him, it was for his teacher.
Shimizu was very disappointed that Wang Lin didn't enter the Celestial Ascension Pool. He had already decided that Wang Lin's fate with his teacher would be severed. From now on, they would no longer be related. He would focus on finding the reason why the Celestial Realm collapsed, and the reason why he went crazy!
However, after witnessing how Wang Lin was willing to come this far and give up almost all of his life for a woman, Shimizu began to reminisce.
Looking at Wang Lin, Shimizu felt like he was looking at himself in the past. His heart was filled with heart-wrenching pain. He would never forget when he woke up and saw the ground covered in blood, his lover's closed eyes, and the beautiful face.
At that moment, his heart had collapsed!
Filled with melancholy, Shimizu looked at Wang Lin. He no longer treated him as a way to repay his teacher. Instead, there was a hint of gentleness in his eyes.
"You didn't enter the Celestial Ascension Pool, so you can't use this Celestial Spell to its fullest. I don't have anything to give you, but I'll give you a strand of Celestial Origin Energy to help you use the Celestial Spell!"
The Celestial Origin Energy that entered Wang Lin's body wasn't taken away by Shimizu. Instead, as Wang Lin's body circulated, it turned into a golden bean surrounded by Celestial Origin Energy and landed in Wang Lin's Origin Soul.
