Chapter 157: The Reincarnated Villain Makes The Heroines Tearfully Beg For Forgiveness
Seeing Mu Lingsha's dazed appearance, Su Qingyi and several other ancient goddesses wanted to speak to her.
Before they could open their mouths, Su Qingyi herself appeared gloomy.
Lin Qi was the reincarnation of God Taichu, and because of Mu Lingsha, he was unable to rebuild his body.
She would have already started resenting Mu Lingsha had it not been for their years-long friendship and close relationship.
When they saw Su Qingyi and Mu Lingsha in such a state, the other three ancient goddesses sighed in their hearts and remained silent.
The three of them turned their heads to look at the light beam of resurrection in front of them.
Their eyes shifted from the image of the light beam of resurrection to the three treasures suspended in the light beam of resurrection.
Within the light beam of resurrection, there were originally five treasures.
Su Qingyi's five-colored stone and Mu Lingsha's little sword were then collected by the light beam of resurrection, along with the relevant memory fragments.
However, the remaining treasures belonging to the three of them were suspended in the beam of light of resurrection, emitting a faint glow.
The expressions of these three ancient goddesses also grew dim when they looked at these three treasures.
The image that appeared within the light beam of resurrection broke Mu Lingsha's heart, but Mu Lingsha was at least able to meet her master.
The three of them had yet to see anything.
...
Almost all of these ancient goddesses were drawn to the images contained within the light beam of resurrection.
Others around them, however, looked quite different.
Lin Feng stared at the image within the light beam of resurrection with wide eyes, trying his best to see all the details clearly.
He was looking for relevant memories in these images.
He still believed that he was Heaven's Destined Child, the reincarnation of many ancient gods.
He was also trying to memorize these images.
Even if he was unable to recover his memories in the future, he could still enchant these ancient goddesses with these details.
All of these ancient goddesses were in the Worldly Law realm, and they have merged into the world and become the embodiment of the law.
Compared to those in the Eternal Life realm, they were even stronger.
With the full support of these Ancient Goddesses, Lin Feng would not be afraid even if the Heavenly Emperor were to be resurrected.
"No matter what, I must draw these five ancient goddesses to my side." Lin Feng reminded himself in his heart.
...
Naturally, those evil cultivators surrounding Lin Feng stared at him with bated breath.
Their hope was that Lin Feng would support them.
It would be better if he could directly regain his identity and memories of God Taichu and become the supreme being of the Lingxuan continent.
The evil cultivators, Lin Feng's biggest supporters, could in that case immediately turn over a new leaf.
They would not have to live as they did before, hiding in some barren places of the Lingxuan continent and barely surviving.
...
(Near the light beam of resurrection)
Xiao Yanran, Xiao Mei, Qian Linglong, and the others waited silently here.
'Just now, brother's body seems to have regained some vitality.'
'I felt it too, this means Husband is recovering. Let's wait a little longer. We must not disturb his resurrection.'
'There seems to be a connection between the fluctuations of Qi in Master's body and the treasures taken out by those goddesses. Would it be possible that these treasures were affecting master's resurrection?'
'As long as we can resurrect Big Stone, it doesn't matter if we have to fight these ancient goddesses with our lives.'
They exchanged glances instead of speaking, and their thoughts were passed along.
As long as they could resurrect the Heavenly Emperor that they cared about, they were willing to pay any price.
...
While the crowd was having different thoughts, several years had passed within the light beam.
Over the past few years, Lin Qi had been out and about nearly all the time, collecting treasures to rebuild his body.
The smile on Lin Qi's face grew brighter and brighter as each treasure was collected.
However, this bright smile was like a sharp blade that was constantly piercing Mu Lingsha's body.
It was impossible for Mu Lingsha to imagine what Lin Qi would look like when he gave her the chance to rebuild her body.
A sigh escaped Su Qingyi's lips.
She was even more worried than Mu Lingsha.
Lin Qi would almost certainly be unable to reincarnate again once he died completely, given his fragile soul, if he gave up the chance to rebuild his body.
Mu Lingsha's complexion turned pale as she looked at the image within the light beam of resurrection before her.
At this time, Mu Lingsha's figure reappeared within the light beam of resurrection.
It was time for Lin Qi, her master, to finally give up rebuilding his body after this.
...
(Within the light beam of resurrection)
A scene from inside the volcanic furnace appeared.
It was at this time that Lin Qi set out to look for the treasures he needed to rebuild his body.
Mu Lingsha's original body, along with the small temporary sword that Lin Qi had once refined for her, was put into the volcanic furnace by the elders of the Weapon Spirit clan.
Mu Lingsha was refined to rid the Weapon Spirit Clan of its sin clan status at the beginning.
There was no longer a sin clan on the Lingxuan continent, and Mu Lingsha was no longer necessary.
Furthermore, Mu Lingsha had already become possessed and had turned into a Devil sword.
Unless she was destroyed, she would surely bring a huge disaster to this world in the future.
Lin Qi's refined small sword melted into a liquid and vanished over the blazing flames.
Mu Lingsha's body, made of precious materials, was the only one that could resist the heat of the volcanic furnace.
An elder of the Weapon Spirit clan would occasionally come forward and use a refining hammer to break apart Mu Lingsha's inscriptions.
The inscriptions were the key to Mu Lingsha's birth.
Mu Lingsha's Qi grew weaker and weaker as these inscriptions broke apart.
Later on, she was unable to even maintain her human form and had to shrink inside the Supreme Divine Sword, holding on for dear life.
Mu Lingsha had become possessed by a Devil, but when faced with death, she had finally come to fear it.
The fear that emanated from within the Supreme Divine sword could be felt by anyone.
However, the elders of the Weapon Spirit Clan just shook their heads and continued to destroy the Supreme Divine Sword.
It didn't matter to them if a weapon spirit disappeared.
In addition, a weapon spirit such as Mu Lingsha, which was completely self-aware and was not controlled by anyone, was completely discarded.
They would have already destroyed Mu Lingsha completely and rebuilt her if Lin Qi had assisted them.
...
(At the light beam of resurrection)
"Sister Lingsha, what all happened back then?"
Looking at these images within the light beam of resurrection, Mu Lingsha trembled.
At the side, Su Qingyi sighed softly and hugged Mu Lingsha, whispering a few words of comfort.
However, Mu Lingsha's body was not only cold but also trembling.
Seeing these images, the fear that had lurked in the depths of her mind resurfaced.
She would never forget it.
That fear, that loneliness, that feeling of being abandoned by the world when she was on the verge of death...
The reason why she had become possessed and turned into a Devil sword all boils down to this.
It was because of this bone-chilling feeling of loneliness.
Even the birds in the sky and the ants on the ground have companions with them.
But she was always alone.
Her master, the only one she could trust had not shown up for years.
So she desperately wanted to find someone like her.
Even as she was about to be refined to death, this feeling of loneliness grew stronger.
She could only curl up her body, alone, waiting for death.
All around her, she heard mocking voices or cold words saying she deserved to die.
"Only master... only master... has never given up on me, no matter what."
Mu Lingsha gripped Su Qingyi tightly. There was a mixture of excitement and despair on her face.
The excitement was to be able to see the image of Lin Qi, her master, saving her again.
At that moment, when she was most desperate, her master came to her aid. From the depths of her heart, she began to recognize Lin Qi as her master.
She still thinks of her master, Lin Qi, with the deepest affection to this day.
Her snatching of her master's chance to rebuild his body, however, made her despair.
...
(Within the light beam of resurrection)
Just as Mu Lingsha was about to be completely refined, Lin Qi returned.
Even though the elders of the Weapon Spirit clan tried to suppress the news about Mu Lingsha, Lin Qi was now the clan's patriarch.
All cultivators recognized him as the Heavenly Emperor.
He knew something was wrong as soon as he returned to the volcanic furnace.
Lin Qi headed straight to the furnace where he refined Mu Lingsha, frowning.
Lin Qi turned his gaze to Mu Lingsha, whose breath was already faint, and with a wave of his hand, several spirit swords flew out, rescuing Mu Lingsha.
"Patriarch, this Supreme Divine sword is now a Devil sword. You can no longer shelter her like this."
"That's right, Lin Qi. As you can see, in just one more day, this sword will be completely refined."
"Lord Heavenly Emperor, this Devil sword has killed many people. She must not be spared."
Many cultivators who sensed Lin Qi's every move rushed here from all directions to convince him to stop sheltering Mu Lingsha.
Lin Qi, however, at this moment, just kept stroking Mu Lingsha's body with his hand.
It was as if he hadn't heard the persuasions all around him.
After a long time, he let out a long sigh. "It was because of me that Lingsha appeared in the first place. Other people can leave her alone, but I cannot."
In the face of Mu Lingsha, Lin Qi's heart was filled with guilt from the beginning to the end.
He was responsible for Mu Lingsha's birth.
Mu Lingsha wouldn't have been born if it weren't for him.
"Lin Qi, think carefully. What you are holding in your hands is just a sword, and that woman, too, is just a vessel spirit. If you really want to protect her, not only will you damage the prestige of the Heavenly Emperor, but more importantly she has already become possessed and has become a Devil sword. Keeping her will definitely lead to endless killings."
An elder of the Weapon Spirit clan persuaded Lin Qi with bitterness.
Lin Qi lowered his head.
He stared at Mu Lingsha's original body for a moment.
Slowly raising his head, he looked around and said, "I also am to blame for Lingsha's transformation into a Devil sword, so I will step down as Heavenly Emperor from today on."
And Lin Qi said in an aggravated tone, "I will completely resolve the matter of Lingsha's possession. If there is no way to bring her back, then I will destroy her with my own hands."
When Lin Qi gave up even the position of Heavenly Emperor for Mu Lingsha, the cultivators around could only sigh in helplessness.
Several days have passed.
Lin Qi informed the other elders of the Weapon Spirit Clan of all the details about that Bronze Gate.
Then, he took Mu Lingsha with him and left the Weapon Spirit Clan alone.
He left the Weapon Spirit Clan, just as he had done back then.
Unlike in the past, he did not take Mu Lingsha with him and explore the Lingxuan continent. Instead, he took Mu Lingsha and headed directly north.
Lin Qi and Mu Lingsha finally appeared in front of an Ice Spirit Pond of Coldness after crossing the vast ice fields in the north.
A cold pond like this could be used to cleanse Mu Lingsha of the Devilish Qi.
Only a few months had passed since they arrived at this Ice Spirit Pond of Coldness.
There was already an alarming decline in Mu Lingsha's Devilish Qi.
Lin Qi, who had been guarding the vicinity of this Ice Spirit Pond of Coldness, couldn't help but smile as Mu Lingsha gradually returned to normal.
As Mu Lingsha was about to return to normal, that huge eyeball in the sky faintly flashed.
After just a glance at the Lingxuan Continent below, its icy gaze seemed to focus on Mu Lingsha.
From outside the Trace of Heaven, a beam of light filled with evil Qi shot directly into this Ice Spirit Pond of Coldness.
Almost instantly, this Ice Spirit Pond of Coldness was transformed into a Devil's Pond.
It was as if the surrounding area had been filled with ink, as the devilish Qi tumbled and swirled.
The Devilish Qi even eroded Mu Lingsha, who was located in the Ice Spirit Pond of Coldness.
When the crowd outside the light beam of resurrection witnessed such a scene, their expressions changed instantly.
Many people couldn't help but look up at the sky.
They had watched the images within the light beam of resurrection for so long.
Such a bone-chilling feeling of despair could only be given by the owner of this huge eyeball.
Even God Taichu had fallen victim to this inconceivably terrifying existence.
"Even though the Heavenly Emperor has temporarily shut it with the Bronze Gate, how long will it be able to hold this terrifying existence back? ...I fear that the Lingxuan continent will be wiped out if this terrifying existence returns."
This thought suddenly emerged in many people's minds, causing their faces and bodies to stiffen.
