However, what Kunlun didnât know was that not long after Na Ling died, her soul awakened her consciousness.
The moment her soul woke up, Na Ling saw the gory and cruel scene of Kunlun being devoured by those demon beasts. As for her, she was hidden in the barrier by Kunlun and could only watch helplessly.
After Kunlun was devoured by the demon beasts, Na Ling was afraid that she would forget Kunlun after her rebirth. Therefore, for the past ten thousand years, Na Lingâs soul had been waiting in the cemetery.
She waited day after day and looked forward to Kunlunâs rebirth. If she didnât await Kunlunâs reincarnation, she would never choose to be reborn.
After so long, she had finally awaited Kunlun. âKunlun, youâre finally here to see me.â Even though his identity was ordinary after he returned and he didnât even have a complete body, he still came to fulfill the promise.
Kunlunâs heart skipped a beat when he saw the tears in Na Lingâs eyes.
âNa Ling.â Kunlun wanted to help Na Ling wipe her tears, but his hand missed again. Kunlun licked his lips and said uneasily, âI havenât found all the bones scattered in the Kunlun Mystic Realm, so I canât be considered the real Kunlun Divine Master⦠Na Ling, I donât remember you yet.â
Na Ling shook her head and said, âItâs okay. After knowing that youâve successfully reincarnated, I can rest in peace.â
Na Lingâs soul had waited in the cemetery for ten thousand years and used her remaining soul power to create an inheritance test for Beatrice. Now, Na Lingâs soul power was very weak, and her soul body looked transparent.
She seemed fragile enough to disperse with the wind.
Na Ling knew that her soul consciousness was about to dissipate, so she suddenly walked towards Yu Huang.
Yu Huang froze, but then she heard Na Ling say in a sad tone, âI hope you donât tell Kunlun about Na Luoâs existence.â
Yu Huangâs heart ached when she heard this.
She could understand Na Lingâs thoughts.
Kunlun had already reincarnated and had long forgotten what happened in his previous life. If Kunlun found out that he and Na Lingâs only daughter in his previous life had lived alone in an alternate world for ten thousand years and was bullied so miserably, as a father, he would definitely blame himself and feel anguished.
Therefore, Na Ling wanted to bear all the sorrow alone.
Yu Huang lowered her eyes and replied, ââ¦Okay.â
Seeing that Yu Huang had agreed to her request, Na Ling heaved a sigh of relief and floated to Beatrice.
Looking at Beatrice in admiration, Na Ling said, âIn the ancient era, merfolk were just ordinary sea demon beasts. They didnât even have intelligence. It was only when Kunlun became a Divine Master that I was lucky enough to be promoted to an ancient merman. Because the merfolk had similar bloodlines, they also awakened their intelligence and became an advanced intelligent race. In a sense, you can be considered my descendant.â
Hearing this, Beatrice couldnât help but think of the feud between Na Luo and the merfolk.
The merfolk existed because of Na Ling, but they cruelly bullied and killed Na Lingâs only daughter.
Na Ling seemed to know why Beatrice felt uneasy. She sighed and said, âYouâre a good child. Na Luoâs death has nothing to do with you. I wonât take my anger out on you.â
Hearing this, Beatrice felt sad and said, âSenior, I feel deeply guilty about what happened to Na Luo.â
Na Ling shook her head and said, âBut Na Luo also killed all your clansmen, so you guys are even now. The merman race only has you left, and you successfully came to me. I think this is fate.â
âThe fact that you passed my test is enough to prove that you are an outstanding and determined child. You deserve to obtain my inheritance.â
Beatrice hurriedly knelt down and bowed three times to Na Ling. âThank you, Senior Na Ling.â
Na Lingâs figure became even more illusory.
Her body swayed a few times. Just as her soul body was about to dissipate, it condensed again at the last moment. However, this time, Na Ling looked even weaker.
Na Ling said to Beatrice, âIâm Kunlunâs beast form. I was born because of Kunlun. Itâs my duty to protect Kunlun and cooperate with him in battle. Kunlun mainly cultivates the Dao of Slaughter, and Iâm Kunlunâs killing weapon. My strongest cultivation technique is called the Buddha Pagoda!â
Na Ling continued, âThe Buddha Pagoda cultivation technique I created is a fourth-grade divine-grade cultivation technique. After mastering it, one can summon nine divine pagodas at the same time. What a coincidence. The Nine-Layered Divine Pagoda you used in the illusion just now was the first move in the Buddha Pagoda cultivation technique.â
Hearing this, Beatrice revealed a shocked expression. âSenior, youâre saying that the Nine-Layered Divine Pagoda is the first move in the Buddha Pagoda cultivation technique?â
âThatâs right,â Na Ling said. âBefore the war, I divided the Buddha Pagoda cultivation technique into nine steps. Although my daughter, Na Luo, entered the spatial rift together with it, I didnât expect you to find it.â
Beatrice hurriedly explained, âOn the Holy Spirit Continent, thereâs a place called the Lou Lan Ancient Pavilion. Thereâs a Time Valley on the surface of the Lou Lan Ancient Pavilion. The energy in the Time Valley is chaotic and overbearing. It opens every three years, and my Nine-Layered Divine Pagoda cultivation technique was found in the Time Valley.â
Beatrice didnât expect that the Nine-Layered Divine Pagoda was actually one of the scrolls in the Buddha Pagoda cultivation technique created by Na Ling.
It was fate.
âItâs indeed fate.â Na Ling nodded and said with relief, âYou were able to obtain the recognition of the Nine-Layered Divine Pagoda and successfully refine it, which proves that you are the fated one. I think it wonât be too difficult for you to accept my inheritance.â
As she spoke, Na Ling raised her right palm and closed her eyes. The ink-blue curly hair on her back fluttered as s milky white spiritual power emerged from Na Lingâs body and gathered in her palm to form the phantom of an ancient tower. The shape of the tower was very strange. It was formed by nine overlapping towers. The first tower was a nine-pointed nine-story tower. It was the miniature version of the Nine-Layered Divine Pagoda that Beatrice cultivated.
The second tower was an octagonal eight-story tower, and the third was a seven-story towerâ¦
The tower on the top was the smallest and shortest. There was only one floor, and there was an ink-blue spiritual energy bead on the top of the tower.
Na Ling opened her eyes and stared at the ink-blue Spiritual Energy Pearl on the top of the tower as she said to Beatrice, âWhen you successfully form the Spiritual Energy Pearl on the top of the tower, it will mean that youâve completely mastered the Buddha Pagoda cultivation technique. With the Buddha Pagoda cultivation technique, you can trap all the Beast Tamers below your cultivation level in the pagoda. In just three minutes, you can crush their bodies.â
As Na Ling gently stroked the Buddha Pagoda, she revealed a nostalgic gaze and said, âItâs been a long time since Iâve seen the Buddha Pagoda dyed red with blood.â
Beatrice was speechless.
Upon hearing Na Lingâs murmur, Yu Huang and the others secretly looked at each other and revealed reverent expressions.
Senior Na Ling was indeed the wife and beast form of the Divine Master. Like Kunlun, she was good at slaughter.
They were really a match made in heaven.
