Chapter 1518: Dominating the Inner Realm, Zhaoge (First Update)

The Void Gate shattered, Nirvana power flowed, and Qing Shui, clad in green robes, carefully placed the soul of his wife, Hanyan, inside his embrace, where it transformed into a mark pressed against his heart.

It wasn't that he couldn't put it into his Storage Space, but Qing Shui was reluctant.

Qing Shui insisted on giving away the Sword of Slaughter, and Wang Lin accepted it. Wang Lin already had a small amount of Slaughter Origin that had been born around the time of the first battle in Yunhai, but this Origin was very weak, merely existing, and hadn't fully manifested.

With this Sword of Slaughter, Wang Lin's Origins became six paths! As for the War mark, which was not an Origin, it had long ago transformed into a Rule Star, remaining deep within Wang Lin's body.

Wang Lin did not intend to immediately refine and absorb the Slaughter Origin; the time was not right. He planned to wait until his three Origins—Karma, Life and Death, and True and False—had all reached Major Achievement. Then, at the moment he blasted open the Void Gate, he would absorb the Slaughter Origin, opening the Void Gate in one fell swoop and allowing himself to become an extremely rare Six Paths Origin Dao-Prover throughout history!

Qing Shui descended from the sky, silently watching the gradually dissipating Void Great Gate. He raised his right hand and grabbed in the Void, taking the blue Dragon Blood Wine Gourd into his hand. He took a sip, and the spicy sensation slowly brought a cold glint to his eyes before he handed the gourd to Wang Lin.

The two men stood on this Barren Star, watching the dissipating Void Great Gate, facing a cold wind. Amidst the howling wind and the rising dust from the ground, they silently drank their wine.

No one spoke.

Wang Lin did not ask Qing Shui if he had found the answers he sought years ago in the Cultivation Alliance Headquarters, within the Seven-Colored Realm.

Qing Shui also did not speak, knowing only to himself what he had discovered and what he had enlightened himself about. But the more he learned, the more silent he became.

“A game…” A cold light flashed in Qing Shui's eyes, but his face held bitterness. He took the wine gourd Wang Lin handed him, took another large gulp, and then burst into laughter.

“Wang Lin, promise me one thing!” Qing Shui's laughter contained a sense of resolution as he looked at Wang Lin.

Wang Lin said nothing, but nodded.

“If one day I die, and if I still have an intact body, then take it and bury it in my hometown. Leave no name on the tombstone. A ten-foot patch of dirt will be my best resting place…” Qing Shui looked up at the sky.

“What if home is gone too…” Wang Lin fell silent, only speaking slowly after a long time.

“Then bury me within the Heaven and Earth!” Qing Shui drank a mouthful of dragon blood. A few trails of the liquid ran down the corner of his mouth, catching the sunlight and emitting a red glow.

“Alright!” Wang Lin took the wine gourd from Qing Shui's hand, drank, and his expression became solemn. His eyes flashed, and he spoke again in a deep voice.

“If I die before you, send me back to the Vermilion Bird Star, the State of Zhao, the Wang family…”

Qing Shui looked at Wang Lin and nodded slowly.

This was a promise!

Dragon Blood Wine was potent and could intoxicate people, but it couldn't intoxicate Wang Lin, nor could it intoxicate Qing Shui. There wasn't much wine. They sat on the ground, drinking as the Void Gate dissipated, and soon the gourd was nearly empty.

“Wang Lin, I've never asked you… do you have descendants?” Qing Shui closed his eyes, his expression somewhat lonely, and spoke softly.

“I have a son…” Sadness filled Wang Lin's eyes. He took a large gulp of the remaining Dragon Blood Wine. It no longer felt spicy when it entered his stomach; instead, it turned into a sharp pain.

“I have a daughter…” Qing Shui opened his eyes, which were filled with recollection. The taste of that recollection was bitter.

“But I can't find her anymore… As of today, perhaps she has departed forever.” Qing Shui's recollection was laced with sorrow. He remembered the moment he woke up, the instant he wailed while holding his wife's corpse. In the distance, amidst the blood and behind a pile of wreckage, there was a seven or eight-year-old girl clutching a dead immortal crane, her empty eyes staring at him, staring at her mother.

“Perhaps she has undergone Reincarnation, perhaps she has Transmigrated, but on her left shoulder, there is a red mark I left when she was born. This mark will accompany her forever. If you ever meet a girl like that, please look after her for me…”

The illusory great door in the sky finally dissipated completely.

Qing Shui stood up, let out a long breath, and the cold light in his eyes was fully exposed.

“Wang Lin, I want to kill!” Qing Shui raised his right hand. A Supreme Slaughter Origin of Heaven and Earth erupted from his body and gathered on his right hand, causing it to be instantly shrouded in black cold Qi.

The cold Qi was like cotton wool, fluttering up, causing the entire Barren Star to be surrounded by coldness in that instant.

The Slaughter Origin is an extremely special Origin. Owners are extremely rare throughout history, but once possessed, a single Origin can easily break open the Void Gate. This Origin is the ultimate limit of slaughter.

Although Qing Shui's cultivation was only at the void nirvana Early Stage, using the Slaughter Origin combined with his tens of thousands of years of Divine Ability combat experience, the level of slaughter he could unleash would cause even a void nirvana Late Stage Cultivator to change expression upon encountering it!

“Killing, is it… Good!” Wang Lin stood up and stepped toward the sky. Ripples echoed beneath his feet, and he instantly vanished into the world. Qing Shui, his entire body permeated by coldness, also stepped forward, entering the ripples where Wang Lin disappeared, and vanished alongside him.

If the entire Kunxu Star Domain were likened to a lake, and the plankton in the water were the Cultivation Planets, then at this moment, two parallel ripples appeared on the water's surface, like two swordfish rapidly moving underwater.

There were not many Cultivators from the Outer Realm within the Kunxu Star Domain, as the Cultivation Alliance was their temporary headquarters. Furthermore, the few remaining Outer Realm Cultivators had nearly all perished in a previous slaughter that shook the entire starry sky.

That slaughter was instigated by a pair of master and disciple. Under Long Panzi's absolute cultivation, few Outer Realm Cultivators survived.

However, Long Panzi's target was Zhaoge. He did not linger in Kunxu, leaving behind a few stragglers.

Three Outer Realm Cultivators, who had marks on their brows, looked panicked at this moment, cautiously speeding through the starry sky. They didn't even dare to move too fast, afraid of causing large fluctuations that would draw attention.

“The message Jade Slips aren't responding. I'm afraid the others have met with misfortune. Damn it, what exactly happened!”

“We can't go back to the Cultivation Alliance Headquarters. I worry that something has gone wrong there too. Could it be that the Inner Realm has launched a massive counterattack? We should find a Cultivation Planet to hide on and wait until the main army arrives before showing ourselves.”

The three men communicated telepathically as they traveled, but just then, two faint ripples passed by in the starry sky to their right. Within one of those ripples, an overwhelming aura of slaughter permeated, piercing directly through the three men.

There were no screams. After the two ripples passed, the three Outer Realm Cultivators trembled, countless fine cracks appeared on their bodies, and they suddenly collapsed. Their Primordial Spirits were torn apart, and they perished.

Similar scenes occurred everywhere in Kunxu, Luotian, and Yunhai. Following the sweeping slaughter initiated by Long Panzi not long ago, the few remaining Outer Realm Cultivators in these three Star Domains once again experienced the madness originating from Qing Shui.

Spots of blood bloomed, displaying the final beauty of their lives.

The two ripples swept across the three great Star Domains and rushed into Zhaoge! Zhaoge was a place completely occupied by Outer Realm Cultivators; many Outer Realm Cultivators resided here.

As soon as they entered Zhaoge, a dense bloody stench immediately permeated the area, but this bloodiness could not stop the two ripples. Moving at a speed that integrated them with the world, they swept past one Cultivation Planet after another.

Finally, they headed straight for the depths of Zhaoge, toward the last Seven-Colored Realm! This was where the true body of Hong Shanzi was Sealed!

In the starry sky, a huge Rift emitted bursts of seven-colored light. Outside the Rift, severed limbs and broken arms were scattered everywhere, and large numbers of Outer Realm Cultivators had died tragically nearby.

Furthermore, roars continuously emanated from within the Seven-Colored Realm. Clearly, a fierce battle was taking place inside!

The two ripples suddenly approached. The ripple containing the overwhelming slaughter aura caused the starry sky behind it to freeze with cracking sounds as it traveled, and it instantly rushed straight toward the Seven-Colored Rift.

As he arrived, all the severed limbs, broken arms, and countless corpses outside the Rift were enveloped in ice, the cold Qi pressing down heavily. The ripple containing the aura of slaughter dissipated the moment it reached the Seven-Colored Rift, and Qing Shui, clad in green robes, stepped directly out. Without hesitation, he entered the Seven-Colored Realm.

Wang Lin's body also materialized, and he stepped inside, showing a slight fatigue.

Inside this Zhaoge Seven-Colored Realm, as soon as Wang Lin stepped in, shocking screams reached his ears. This Seven-Colored Realm was different from the two he had seen before, composed of several floating continents.

But at this moment, the surroundings were filled with debris from collapsing continents. Only three remained floating in the air. On those three continents, Long Panzi was fighting a black-robed old man. With every wave of their hands, the earth shook and the sky trembled, emitting deafening rumbles.

Wang Lin had seen the black-robed old man before. This person was none other than the Hall Master of the Heavenly Punishment Hall of the Venerable Association, who had just appeared during the first battle of Yunhai before being trapped by the Spirit of the Venerable Seal!

This person's cultivation was second only to the Five Venerables within the Primordial Stars, having already reached the empty profound Early Stage! This was not achieved by destroying life force in exchange, like Long Panzi, but was a genuine empty profound Early Stage!

Below the three floating continents, tens of thousands of Outer Realm Cultivators sat cross-legged. Murmured incantations emanated from them, and wisps of Incense Power floated out above their heads, transforming in mid-air into strange-looking creatures that roared and howled, surrounding Long Panzi and the Hall Master of the Heavenly Punishment Hall, attacking alongside them.

Qing Shui arrived one step ahead of Wang Lin. The moment he appeared, he glanced at Long Panzi and the other man in the sky, his eyes flashing with cold light. He strode directly toward the tens of thousands of Cultivators surrounding them. The bursts of shrill screams Wang Lin heard upon entering this place were coming from the mouths of these tens of thousands of Cultivators.

Qing Shui was bloodthirsty. Especially now that his Slaughter Origin had reached Major Achievement and blasted open the Void Gate, his bloodthirstiness had reached its Peak. His entire life was spent in slaughter, and as he rushed out now, souls were created and extinguished with every wave of his hand.

Wang Lin's eyes flashed. Looking up, his gaze swept past Long Panzi and the Hall Master of the Heavenly Punishment Hall, spotting a massive Dao Fruit hanging down from the seven-colored clouds above them.
