Therefore, the figures inscribed on those statues should not be me, but you…
The woman’s words echoed over and over again in Bai Yan’s head. Like a thunderclap, the explosion causes the demon queen to lose the ability to think.
“Are you me?” Bai Yan was stunned and continued to ask, “Do you have a vendetta against the Demon Realm?”
The woman in white turned to face Bai Yand softly chuckled, “Demon Realm? You’re talking about the Demon Clans, right? Now the Demon Clan has changed its name to Demon Realm? I do have a vendetta against the demons, no wait, it should be said… this is a war between humans and demons. It doesn’t matter, these things have nothing to do with me anymore, I have long ceased to exist in this world. All you see here is but a remnant of my soul left behind to help you ascend to the level of a True Celestial.”
“True Celestial?” Bai Yan sneered and curved her lips sarcastically, “Since you were so powerful then why did you fall?”
The woman in white made a stunned face over the question before turning embarrassed. “This… the reason will be clear to you in the future, and it is not convenient for me to say it for the time being.”
Bai Yan saw the other her didn’t want to tell the truth so she didn’t dig deeper. After a muse, she continues, “Then tell me what this place is, and why did you leave a remnant of your soul here?”
“This space is a special pocket in reality frozen in stasis. It doesn’t matter how long or who stays here, your age will never change. Let’s say a baby comes inside, they will remain a baby in its infancy stage even after a thousand years. There will be no changes to their physical body, which is the reason why I used it to house myself. If it’s any other place, you think this fragment of ourselves would survive this long? I would’ve disappeared long ago and be unable to meet you….” The woman in white sighed softly.
Perhaps the time had rubbed the edge off of her soul, but this woman in white didn’t have the sharp edge that the statues portrayed inside the cave and portrait. Instead, there’s peace and serenity between those eyes.
“Then how do I reach the True Celestial rank?” Bai Yan went straight for the problem after getting the gist of things. She’s no longer so calm anymore because something just clicked in her head.
What if the demon chief who planted that peach blossom forest is Di Cang’s older incarnation? I got reborn three times already according to this soul fragment, what are the odds that Di Cang followed me as well by entering the life cycle?
Bai Yan had a lot of questions about this matter still. For example: why did this woman in white want to step on top of the Demon Clans of old when the demon chief clearly loved her dearly like how Di Cang loves her in this life?
“You will still need to work hard to reach the True Celestial stage. However, I don’t have much strength left, at most able to help you reach the middle level of the Divine Lord stage. The rest will be up to you…” The woman in white paused for a moment and continued, “After you reach the peak level of the Divine Lord stage, you will need to acquire an external force for help. There’s this red flaming bead. If you can attain this item, your body will naturally find its way to a breakthrough….”
Flaming bead?
Bai Yan made a stunned face because the name immediately brought her to the thought of Di Ling Yan’s condition. There’s a flaming bead inside her daughter’s heart.
“As for here, you don’t have to worry, I will use the last of my strength to help you shatter the restraint. Don’t blame me for taking so long to come. Although time has stopped in this pocket of reality, but its territory is very large and that’s how hard it was to find you despite my efforts….”
