969 The Grass Whip Reappears (2)
The Sky Reaching Tree fell to the ground, unleashing an enveloping spiritual power.
The grayish-black worms dissipated one by one, and those phantoms gradually disappeared.
Cultivators wearing long robes, ordinary mortals dressed in plain clothes, and various creatures appeared, bowing to the wooden branch, and then completely vanishing.
These were the beings whose souls had been devoured, imprisoned, and controlled by the Jade Conch.
Although they had long perished and died, they were still under control, unable to escape.
Now, they could finally be considered truly liberated.
“Senior brother, will they be able to come back?” Mu Wan looked at these dispersing souls, finally understanding where her previous sorrow came from when she witnessed the scenery of 10,000 years ago dissipating.
The passing of all life carried a poignant melancholy.
“They’ll come back again.” Han Muye nodded.
The road to transcendence of the Endless Heavenly Venerables was their path of return.
After traveling through the hell in the Endless Sea, they would reappear in another form of life.
This was the transcendence of the Endless Heavenly Venerables.
As he looked at the fading figures before him, Han Muye gained a deeper understanding.
No wonder the Endless Heavenly Venerables could rely on this to transcend.
This was a path that transcended time and space, and connected the past with the future.
At this moment, Han Muye felt a tinge of jealousy.
However, thinking about it, in this world, only the Heavenly Venerables who ruled the Endless Sea could walk this path.
Furthermore, in order to transcend, the Endless Heavenly Venerables gave up ascending to the immortal realm.
“I-I’m still alive…”
“Heavens, purgatory. That secret place is simply purgatory!”
Hundreds of figures appeared, all of them trembling with pale faces.
Many had already suffered soul breakdowns, standing there muttering to themselves.
From the moment these people stepped onto the high platform and were drawn into the Jade Conch until now, only a quarter of an hour had passed.
A secret treasure hunt had resulted in such severe injuries.
This was no treasure hunt at all; it was simply a death trap.
This secret place was nothing more than a trap.
“Boom!”
The branches of the Sky Reaching Tree shot up into the sky, extending for thousands of zhang, and it continued to expand, giving the feeling of becoming a towering tree that reached the heavens.
The power emanating from it began to increase rapidly.
At this moment, the power on the wooden branch had already surpassed Han Muye’s previous strength.
Han Muye’s gaze landed on the dazed Mu Wan.
There was a mysterious aura gathering around her.
A faint red flower shadow appeared on Mu Wan’s forehead.
“Junior Sister?” Han Muye called out in a low voice.
“Ah, Senior Brother.” Mu Wan smiled and turned around. She said softly, “This grass whip transmitted a memory to me, and there are some cultivation methods.”
No wonder.
It seemed that this was Mu Wan’s fortuitous opportunity.
When Han Muye turned around again, he did not notice the reluctance and complexity in Mu Wan’s eyes.
“Buzz!”
The Sky Reaching Tree branch, which had grown to a height of one hundred thousand zhang, finally ceased its growth, and piece by piece, green leaves fluttered down, enveloping the entire star.
When all the leaves and branches had disappeared, the star had gained a trace of vitality.
“The Heart of the Star is still alive, still having a chance for rebirth,” Han Muye said softly.
Mu Wan nodded and raised her hand, allowing a two-foot-long wooden branch to fall into her palm.
This was the true appearance of the Grass Whip.
Just a piece of wood branch.
“Senior brother, do you think these worlds have souls?”
“And if they do, what are they thinking?”
Mu Wan held the wooden branch and asked softly.
The soul of the world?
Han Muye nodded and said, “The soul of the world should be the Heavenly Dao, right?”
“What the Heavenly Dao is thinking requires reaching an equal level of cultivation to understand.”
The Heavenly Dao was the Heavenly Dao, but it was not the soul.
But it was possible that this world had its own soul.
However, Han Muye was not sure if his cultivation had not reached that level.
The entire star returned to silence, with only a trace of restrained vitality slowly brewing.
Han Muye opened his hand, revealing a small jade conch in his palm.
With a flash of inspiration, several long swords and many spiritual materials appeared.
These were all treasures brought by the cultivators devoured by the Jade Conch.
“Brother Zhao, why don’t you divide these things among yourselves?” Han Muye said as he waved his hand, pushing the swords and materials toward Zhao Yu and the others.
He had originally obtained these alone, but Han Muye was willing to share them with Zhao Yu and the others.
He did not lack treasures. His and Mu Wan’s gains on this trip were huge.
Zhao Yu and the others looked at each other and raised their hands to collect the treasures.
Without lingering, everyone flew away.
As for the practitioners who had accompanied them, not only did most of them die or get injured, but they didn’t even obtain a single strand of hair.
However, the survivors had no room to complain.
Being able to survive was all thanks to Han Muye’s intervention.
Otherwise, their lives would have been lost here.
“Who exactly is he? Accompanied by disciples from the Sword Pavilion, his swordsmanship is unparalleled. Even the ancient great sword cultivators couldn’t match him,” a surviving sword cultivator murmured as he watched Han Muye and the others leave.
“The Sword Pavilion is truly a major power in the Upper Heaven Region, with profound heritage…” someone sighed softly.
Without the people from the Sword Pavilion, they would have undoubtedly perished this time.
“Let’s go. The world of the Immortal Source World has changed greatly. Perhaps this is an opportunity. If we can join the Sword Pavilion, we will definitely obtain an unexpected opportunity.”
One by one, spiritual lights departed, and the star returned to tranquility.
Perhaps, countless years later, this star would awaken once again and become a splendid world.
…
Leaving the star, Han Muye, Mu Wan, and Zhao Yu bid farewell to each other and piloted their flying boat to depart.
