A spring night breeze seemed to blow, and tens of thousands of flowers bloomed.
The Heaven Sacrifice level’s snowflakes fluttered about, falling endlessly one after another, but this was not a genuine snowscape. Each snowflake was thin as a cicada’s wing, like light itself. After White Emperor Shaohao awakened, the Heaven Sacrifice level had been stuck in this phenomenon as far as the eye could see. The Immortal Slumber Trees were like pear blossoms at first snow, enveloped in winter skies.
Qi Lin watched Bai Yuanzhi, Holy Mother Turtle Spirit, Yan Zi, and the others leave. Then, he cast his glance back to the young girl in front of him.
White Emperor Shaohao’s back was very beautiful, delicate, and elegant. She strolled through the snowscape, heading for the Pine of Gui Ge all along. Her steps were graceful and forceful. The Illusionary Flying Snow became a qilin and followed at her side, cautious as if she was on thin ice.
Everything was now clear in his mind, everything understood.
Why did Changliu have the three levels of “Man,” “Earth,” and “Heaven.” Why did it have Mystery Silver Puppets, Corpses of Xia Geng, Corpse Tree, and other terrifying traps. As it turned out, all of them were constructed by the White Emperor back then. Perhaps she had long wanted to use the True Dragon Hibernations fengshui to hide her Divine Name here, waiting for an opportunity to recover.
Although Qi Lin did not know just what happened to the White Emperor back then, he could imagine that White Emperor Shaohao, master of the West, had exhausted all her means and ideas to set down multiple mechanisms. It when without saying that something wretched happened back then that people of today would be unable to conceive of.
“Are you letting them go like this?” Qi Lin paused and asked.
Shaohao glanced over indifferently. Her gaze seemed to say – “some insignificant Divine Names are not worth This Emperor’s attention.”
Qi Lin nodded, however, the moment Primordial World learned that the very Western Heavenly Emperor, White Emperor Shaohao, had surprisingly resurfaced, perhaps this would give rise to shocking changes. This was a god from the Primal Chaos Heavenly Court, after all. As if the White Emperor knew what Qi Lin wanted to say, the woman did not utter a word.
The group walked under the Pine of Gui Ge and looked up to gaze at the gargantuan Divine Tree before them. The Yin and Yang canopy released two divine lights that entered Shaohao’s body. That flower bud in the center had blossomed, and Qi Lin finally could see clearly. The interior was like a warm bed, filled with spiraling creases and nurtured by the Yin and Yang powers of the Pine of Gui Ge.
“This Emperor has troubled you for the past few years.” Shaohao said softly to the Illusionary Flying Snow.
The Illusionary Flying Snow submissively lowered her head, her attitude devout and moved.
“You awoke faster than This Emperor.” Shaohao shut her eyes and quietly sensed the Great Thousand World’s breathing.
A long while after, Shaohao turned and faced Qi Lin, Su Xuesha, and the unconscious Qi Qi.
The young woman’s eyes clearly lingered for a moment on Great Sage Equal Of Heaven Sun Wukong. Shaohao opened her palm, and the Pine of Gui Ge’s two divine lights descended into her hand and formed the Taiji. “This is the Pine of Gui Ge’s ‘Sun and Moon Essence.’ Treat it as This Emperor’s token of appreciation for you.” She waved her hand, and the divine light rolled towards Qi Lin and Su Xuesha. Their souls were intermingled with each other, and they shared a telepathic connection. These Yin and Yang divine lights became two intertwined spirals, like dragons and phoenixes wrapping their necks around each other. Yin and Yang combined, and everything between them seemed to be laid bare. Even Su Xuesha was blushing.
After receiving the Sun and Moon Essence, Qi Lin’s Nine Yins Nine Yang Fortune Heaven’s third level Realm finally reached a bottleneck. Soon, he could enter the fourth level.
Su Xuesha was also much better.
But Shaohao had yet more rewards, “Although This Emperor has never seen Sun Wukong’s Divine Name, Elder Sister Taiyi had previously been very appreciative of her. That you were able to brave death today to help This Emperor as her Invested Deity Emissary is very pleasing to Me.”
The girl’s words were always ice-cold in expression, emotionless, yet she made them feel warmth.
She plucked off a qilin scale and a feather from her shoulders. Her armor had very gorgeous white feathers that were said to be an Earlier Heaven magic treasure. This scale was bright as snow, thin as a cicada’s wing, while the feather was light as frost, glowing in the wind. Then, she gently blew, and the armor and feather landed on Qi Lin and Su Xuesha’s bodies.
The silver qilin scale stuck to Qi Lin’s chest and seemed to embed itself into his skin while the feather stuck to Su Xuesha’s shoulder.
“Yang Jian has not left the Western Sea at all. She still desires to kill you. This ‘Hundred Zhang Ice’ can save your life once.”
“Many thanks, White Emperor.”
The pair expressed their gratitude.
As if recalling something, White Emperor Shaohao whispered to the Illusionary Flying Snow.
Then, they saw the Illusionary Flying Snow become a luan and fly towards the Earth Sacrifice level.
…
The Ten Shamans at this moment had not left the Heaven Sacrifice level. They remained on the periphery, watching from afar through jealously grit teeth as Qi Lin chatted merrily with the White Emperor. The Ten Shamans looked up to see the Illusionary Flying Snow fly towards the Earth Sacrifice level for some reason, but at this moment, they already had no more thoughts of capturing it.
Now that White Emperor Shaohao had awakened, no one in Primordial World could capture her.
“Elder Sister, are we leaving just like this?” Wu Pan was unresigned.
“The White Emperor has awakened. There will surely be enormous chaos during the Register Of Deities. The Primordial Five Sages and Ten Patriarchs will be alarmed. We cannot be dragged in.” Wu Peng was also worried.
Wu Xian was naturally aware, but as they were the Great Shaman Clan, remnants of the Immemorial Royal Family definitely could not be ignored. Furthermore, White Emperor Shaohao was keeping an eye on them. Back then, the White Emperor had constructed the hidden Changliu in the Fog Spirit Sea. In truth, the Ten Shamans were to be watchmen, but after a hundred thousand years, the Ten Shamans’ Divine Names had fallen to oblivion. Dozens of generations went by, and the intent of guardianship from back then had long vanished into smoke, replaced by the Shaman Spirit Kingdom that dominated the Fog Spirit Sea.
However, the Western White Emperor had already revealed herself and struck fear into their Divine Names. Calamity would be difficult to escape from.
For this purpose, Wu Xian specially divined an oracle for them.
The cracks in the Black Sea Dragon Turtle’s shell were frighteningly numerous, and then it completely shattered.
This oracle was already beyond divining fortune or misfortune.
The White Emperor’s heavenly mystery was beyond their ability to peer into.
“The Immemorial Royal Family has been revived…Primordial World will be thrown into chaos.”
Wu Xian softly sighed.
…
After a moment, the Illusionary Flying Snow returned to the Pine Of Gui Ge and became a qilin as it landed on the ground.
Qi Lin was lost in curiosity when he saw the Illusionary Flying Snow spit out a spirit-light. Then, several banners appeared. Qi Lin saw that they were astonishingly the Ten Thousand Beasts Unbounded Banners. The twelve banners unfurled around the White Emperor. Primal chaos intensified and produced primordial Fierce Beasts. Among them were many Immemorial Peril Beasts, all Demon Cores that the Corpse Tree had refined.
If it could be said that the Ten Thousand Beasts Unbounded Banner previously refined ten thousand beasts, the banners now had jumped a level and refined Immemorial Peril Beasts, becoming even stronger.
“This is your magic treasure.” The White Emperor lowered her gaze.
“I thought it had been destroyed.” Qi Lin composed himself.
“That you could lose such a magic treasure, This Emperor reminded the Illusionary Flying Snow that you should be repaid. One hundred eight of the Corpse Tree’s Demon Cores are here. You must refine them, and if you can, it will be enough to strengthen the magic treasure tenfold. As for whether or not you can, that will depend on your luck.” White Emperor Shaohao gently lifted her face and dropped the twelve banners into Qi Lin’s hand.
Qi Lin once again expressed his gratitude. The young girl’s thoughts were clear as ice and snow, but she was expressionless.
“Leave the Western Sea as quickly as possible…This place is no longer safe.”
“Thank you, Lord White Emperor, for the warning.”
A void space appeared and became a passageway. Qi Lin, Su Xuesha, and Qi Qi entered it.
“Master, why do you treat them so well?” The Illusionary Flying Snow asked in bewilderment: “That ‘Hundred Zhang Ice’ has Master’s…” She did not dare continue.
The White Emperor was response-less as usual.
Her gaze peered at someplace far.
Someplace even farther away.
Not a sea, not a mountain. It was mysterious, infinitely mysterious, an unknown future that was in the girl’s snow white eyes.
A mysterious future seemed to flit across her eyes.
