Old Five is a Goose.
Chapter 1215 So This Is the Saint Realm
One year, ten years...
Mo Wuji continued to walk like this, his constant walking causing him to forget hunger and time. After a thousand years had passed, he was as thin as skin and bones, but he still walked forward, oblivious to everything else.
This mortal planet was sparsely populated. Mo Wuji traveled to increasingly remote areas, crossing countless forests, rivers, and mountains.
Although his Dao foundation was still shattered and his meridians had not recovered, there seemed to be a trace of Dao rhythm around him.
This Dao rhythm carried an aura of supreme majesty. For many years, any beasts or insects that appeared within a hundred miles of Mo Wuji would quickly flee.
...
In the deepest part of the God's Resting Land, Xia Ruoyin calmly put away the Reincarnation Mirror, looking up at the vast and boundless depths of the void.
With the help of the Reincarnation Mirror, after more than ten thousand years, she had finally stepped into the seventh level of Quasi-Sage. Once she reached the seventh level of Quasi-Sage, she could use the Red Lotus to enter the Saintess Pool, which was her secret.
That was also why she could not allow the Saintess to come to the God's Resting Land. If the Saintess came to the God's Resting Land, sooner or later she would discover that she could return to the Saintess Pool with the help of the Red Lotus.
Now that the Azure-Clad Saintess had been killed by her outside the God's Resting Land, the Red Lotus completely belonged to her, Xia Ruoyin.
Compared to many Saints who cultivated for countless millennia, she had only cultivated for less than thirty thousand years with the help of the Reincarnation Mirror, and had already stepped into the seventh level of Quasi-Sage. This was her pride.
Scenes from the past flashed through her mind. Countless people and events would not be remembered by her; even the Xia Clan where she was born had been forgotten by her.
The only image that she could not forget was the back of someone sitting intently in the laboratory.
She could not forget that person's every frown and smile, nor could she forget the perplexed words he spoke when he turned to look at her after her short knife had stabbed into his back: "Why?"
Yes, she knew that she needed the formula, and that all she had to do was ask. But he had to die.
She didn't want to beg him for the formula anymore, or rather, she really didn't want to owe him anything anymore. Perhaps, at that time, she still had some bottom line...
Xia Ruoyin let out a clear whistle, she wanted to cut off this last trace of thought that was interfering with her. Otherwise, this person would become the only obstacle to her entering the Saint realm.
After an incense stick of time, Xia Ruoyin's expression became even colder. She had forced herself to cut off that last trace of thought that was interfering with her.
From now on, she, Xia Ruoyin, would become the master of the entire universe.
She believed that she was the only one in the universe, the only one who possessed one hundred and one spiritual meridians, as well as one hundred and one physical meridians. She had even opened up her own second Sea of Consciousness.
She possessed the Primordial Storage Meridian, something that even Saints did not have.
Now that she had killed the Azure-Clad Saintess and seized the Creation Red Lotus, as long as she went to the Saintess Pool to perfect her Red Lotus magic treasure, she would merge with the Red Lotus and become another true Saint.
The Red Lotus was grasped by her, and then she stepped onto the Red Lotus. A series of hand seals were made by her. In just a dozen breaths of time, the Red Lotus disappeared without a trace, enveloped in a burst of red light.
Less than half an incense stick of time after the Red Lotus disappeared, a woman in azure robes landed at the place where the Red Lotus had disappeared. She looked up at the Red Lotus, which had long since disappeared into the void, and snorted coldly. Suddenly, she raised her hand and grabbed several rules and Dao rhythms from her body.
These several rules and Dao rhythms quickly formed a phantom of the Red Lotus. The phantom of the Red Lotus became increasingly clear, and the aura of Dao rhythm became increasingly majestic.
After another half an incense stick of time, this phantom of the Red Lotus suddenly swept up the woman in azure robes and disappeared.
...
As soon as the Red Lotus landed, the pure and clear aura of the Red Lotus Dao rhythm swept over her. Xia Ruoyin was overjoyed. She knew that she had succeeded. She had returned to the Saintess Pool from the God's Resting Land with the help of the Red Lotus.
As long as she came to the Saintess Pool, she would only need a thousand years at most to merge the Red Lotus with herself and allow her to step into the Saintly Grand Dao.
Once she reached the Saintly Grand Dao, she, Xia Ruoyin, would also be the strongest person in the universe. She was a Saint in the universe, and everything was like an ant in her eyes.
"Boom!" While Xia Ruoyin was still excited, and had not even begun to sense the Red Lotus Dao rhythm aura of the Saintess Pool, there was another loud bang, which exploded in the middle of the Saintess Pool.
Xia Ruoyin was startled. After jumping out of the Red Lotus, she saw someone she could not believe could appear. The Azure-Clad Saintess, who had been killed by her own hands, why would she appear here? Could it be that the Azure-Clad Saintess also cultivated an avatar? But she had never heard of it. She had followed the Azure-Clad Saintess for many years and was certain that the Azure-Clad Saintess had not cultivated an avatar.
"You're not dead?" Xia Ruoyin looked at the Azure-Clad Saintess in shock. It was one thing for the Azure-Clad Saintess to not be dead, but how could she return to the Saintess Pool? What was going on?
The Azure-Clad Saintess ignored Xia Ruoyin. Before Xia Ruoyin's words could finish, the Red Lotus directly disappeared from under Xia Ruoyin's feet, as if it had melted into the Saintess Pool. The disappearance of the Red Lotus told Xia Ruoyin that this was the territory of the Azure-Clad Saintess.
Feeling the increasingly powerful aura of the Azure-Clad Saintess, Xia Ruoyin immediately knew that things were bad. Without hesitation, she sacrificed the Cloud Light Edge and bombarded the Azure-Clad Saintess. At the same time, the Reincarnation Mirror also transformed into a Reincarnation Dao light, bombarding the Azure-Clad Saintess with a powerful momentum that threatened to tear the entire Saintess Pool to pieces.
"Boom!" The Dao rhythms exploded, and a red ripple abruptly appeared between the Azure-Clad Saintess and Xia Ruoyin. This red ripple was like a layer of world barrier, blocking Xia Ruoyin's attack.
Xia Ruoyin's heart sank. She knew that she had to kill the Azure-Clad Saintess as soon as possible, otherwise she would be finished.
A mouthful of essence blood was spat out, and the light from the Reincarnation Mirror exploded with an even more dazzling light, with endless Reincarnation Dao rhythms exploding. The barrier that blocked Xia Ruoyin and the Azure-Clad Saintess was directly torn apart by the Reincarnation Mirror, and the Reincarnation Mirror light crushed the Azure-Clad Saintess with an even more powerful force.
Xia Ruoyin had now realized that the Azure-Clad Saintess should have been hiding next to where she was cultivating, waiting for her to return to the Saintess Pool from the God's Resting Land with the Red Lotus.
Once she returned to the Saintess Pool, the Azure-Clad Saintess could use the Red Lotus Dao rhythm that she left behind to return to the Reincarnation Pool with the Red Lotus Soul in a very short period of time. And the Red Lotus Soul was originally the Azure-Clad Saintess herself, so it was naturally easy for her to do this.
Even if she regretted it in her heart, Xia Ruoyin knew that now was not the time.
After the Reincarnation Dao light released by the Reincarnation Mirror tore through the barrier of the Saintess Pool, it swept up a Reincarnation Dao wrapping that carried a call towards the Azure-Clad Saintess.
The Red Lotus was originally the Azure-Clad Saintess's main body, and now she had obtained the Red Lotus in the Saintess Pool. The Azure-Clad Saintess's body quickly completely solidified, and her cultivation level directly rose to the late stage of Quasi-Sage. After Xia Ruoyin's Reincarnation Dao light swept over, she let out a clear shout, and the originally disappeared Red Lotus abruptly appeared.
The Red Lotus smashed into Xia Ruoyin's Reincarnation Mirror, tearing a huge vortex gully in the middle of the Saintess Pool.
Xia Ruoyin didn't dare to stay here at this moment. She didn't even have time to take back the Reincarnation Mirror, and rushed into the vortex gully, disappearing in the blink of an eye. She knew that if she didn't leave now, then she would never be able to leave.
She guessed that the Azure-Clad Saintess should have escaped with a wisp of her soul, but even so, someone must have helped the Azure-Clad Saintess. If no one had helped the Azure-Clad Saintess, the Azure-Clad Saintess would never have been able to condense such a solid primordial spirit in such a short period of time, and she would have been able to return to the Saintess Pool with the help of the Red Lotus Dao rhythm.
She had lost the best opportunity to prove the Dao and become a Saint because she was too carried away. Not only that, but she also lost the Reincarnation Mirror.
As soon as she entered the black vortex, Xia Ruoyin knew that she could not control herself. This powerful vortex tore apart dozens of her meridians, and then took her through one interface after another, disappearing into the vast and boundless depths of the universe.
The Azure-Clad Saintess looked at the huge black vortex in front of her, and remained silent. She did not chase Xia Ruoyin. In fact, she had cultivated in the Saintess Pool for such a long time, and she didn't even know that she could use the Red Lotus to teleport to the Saintess Pool from the God's Resting Land. She was even more unaware that beneath the Saintess Pool, there was a vortex that tore apart the worlds.
It seemed that this was no longer a place for her to stay for long.
...
In the instant that Xia Ruoyin was blasted into the vortex and her meridians were torn apart, Mo Wuji, who was walking, suddenly stopped.
He looked up at the void, and an ordinary, extremely mundane Dao rhythm appeared around him.
At the same time, his Vitality Meridian recovered as before, his Primordial Storage Meridian recovered as before, and his Divine Storage Meridian recovered as before...
His meridians were repaired, his Dao foundation was repaired, and his dantian directly recovered. The aura of the Grand Dao around him was getting weaker and weaker, and a sense of connection between ordinary people and the universe became increasingly clear.
He didn't know how much time had passed, but the increasingly weak aura of Dao rhythm around Mo Wuji completely disappeared without a trace. At this moment, he was an even more ordinary mortal.
So this was the Saintly Realm, Mo Wuji's heart became even more calm and gentle. In the moment that his injuries recovered, he had stepped into the Saintly Realm.
He calmly looked at the void, and his divine sense passed through endless voids and countless interfaces.
