âChild, I will plant it on your beast heart. If you can successfully endure the pain of the nine cycles of torture, you can successfully obtain the Buddha Pagoda cultivation technique and become its new master.â With that, Na Ling didnât give Beatrice any time to prepare and pushed the Buddha Pagoda towards her chest.
The pagoda passed through Beatriceâs flesh and bones and slammed into her beast heart.
âAh!!â
Beatrice immediately knelt down on the cold and hard ground. Her knees hit the floor with a jarring sound.
Beatriceâs fingers dug into the floor and she was twitching in pain. Beads of sweat appeared on the back of her tanned neck. Seeing Beatrice in pain, Estelle subconsciously wanted to help her, but Sheng Xiao stopped him.
âDonât interfere. This is a pain she has to experience.â
Nodding, Yu Huang also said, âOnly by experiencing extreme pain can one be reborn.â
Estelle stopped and said, âBeatrice, hang in there.â
Beatrice had been fighting enemies for more than ten years and had suffered many injuries, so she, who was already used to pain, should not give in so easily.
But she was in too much pain.
Every joint in Beatriceâs body seemed to have been broken. The pain of her bones being broken by a hammer was extremely torturous.
âAh!â Beatrice was in so much pain that she couldnât help but bang her head against the ground. She wished she could break her head completely. Seeing that, Sheng Xiao suddenly walked over and placed his feet in front of Beatrice.
Beatrice banged her head against Sheng Xiaoâs foot.
Beatrice was stunned when she realized that the impact was clearly different. She looked up and saw Sheng Xiao standing in front of her, protecting her. She suddenly felt that the pain wasnât so unbearable anymore. Beatrice held the ground tightly with both hands and said in a pained voice, âDonât worry, I⦠I wonât hurt myself.â
Sheng Xiao said, âThatâs for the best.â
Beatrice didnât want to hurt Sheng Xiao, so she endured the pain and hugged her head while rolling on the ground.
The pain continued for two to three minutes before she realized that the pain in her body seemed to be slowly weakening. Only then did she take her hand away from her head. When Beatrice looked at the barrier above her head weakly, she saw three figures.
Before she could see who they were, the second wave of extreme pain attacked Beatrice again.
Before Beatrice could cry out in pain, her body convulsed. She looked ferocious and terrifying.
At this moment, Yu Huang and the others also saw the three people outside the barrier.
âXiao Shu and the others are here.â
At this moment, Xiao Shu, Feng Yuncheng, and Yin Rong were lying outside the barrier and watching everything. Seeing Beatriceâs pained look, Feng Yuncheng was extremely anxious, but he was unable to open the barrier.
He could only watch anxiously and helplessly as Beatrice endured all the torture.
â¦
After Beatrice successfully endured the repeated torture, her clothes were completely drenched in sweat, and all her strength had dissipated. She laid weakly on the ground. She no longer had the image of a graceful princess.
Yu Huang and the others walked to Beatriceâs side and squatted down beside her. âBeatrice, how do you feel now?â
Beatrice narrowed her eyes. The pain was making her delirious. She tried her best to open her eyes to see the faces of the people outside the barrier, but she could only see three blurry figures. Beatrice opened her mouth and licked her bleeding lips with her dry tongue.
After her blood moistened her tongue, Beatrice could barely speak. She asked in a hoarse voice, âIs that⦠Feng Yuncheng?â
âYes.â As Yu Huang stared at Feng Yunchengâs anxious and worried expression, she said to Beatrice, âHeâs very worried about you.â
Beatrice said, âQuick, help me sit up.â She didnât want to be seen by others in this wretched state, especially Feng Yuncheng.
For some reason, Beatrice didnât want Feng Yuncheng to see her in a sorry state.
Yu Huang laughed and hurriedly helped Beatrice up with Estelle and the others.
Beatrice looked up at Na Ling and saw that her soul body was already extremely weak, like a puff of smoke. She struggled to get up and knelt on the ground again. She kowtowed to Na Ling solemnly and said gratefully, âThank you for your kindness, Senior Na Ling. I canât ever repay your extreme kindness.â
Na Ling smiled and said, âIf you can withstand this pain, you deserve the gains. Child, I wish you a smooth journey towards a bright future.â
Na Ling turned around and arrived in front of Kunlun.
When Kunlun realized that Na Ling was about to disappear, his eyes were filled with sorrow and reluctance. âYou⦠youâre leaving?â
Nodding, Na Ling suppressed her reluctance and nodded. âYes, Iâm leaving.â
Even though she knew that they couldnât touch each other, Na Ling couldnât help but open her arms and hug Kunlun. Kunlun opened its arms and made a hugging gesture as well.
âKunlun.â Na Ling gently rubbed Kunlunâs face with her illusory face, but she could no longer feel Kunlunâs warmth. Na Lingâs voice choked as she said, âKunlun, itâs my honor to be able to become your wife. Since youâve successfully reincarnated, my wish is fulfilled, so itâs time for me to leave.â
As she spoke, Na Ling saw her arms disappear bit by bit.
âKunlun!â When Na Ling realized that she would never see Kunlun again, she suddenly felt flustered, despair, and unwillingness. She cried and shouted, âKunlun, donât forget me. Donât forget me.â
âI wonât forget you!â Kunlun reached out to grab Na Lingâs soul body, but it couldnât grab anything. He couldnât remember anything yet, but he was still heartbroken and saddened by Na Lingâs disappearance.
When the last milky white light disappeared, the last bit of consciousness Na Ling left in this world also disappeared.
As Kunlun stood there in a daze, he looked up at the place where Na Ling had disappeared from and couldnât help but press his aching heart.
âNa Lingâ¦â
Boom!
At this moment, the barrier suddenly shattered with a crack.
After Sheng Xiao looked up, his expression changed slightly and he said in shock, âNa Ling has completely disappeared, so the barrier Kunlun left here has lost its use!â
Crack!
Accompanied by a few cracking sounds, the barrier completely shattered. The ancient merman tomb lost the protection of the barrier and was destroyed by the deep seaâs pressure. All the buildings in the tomb instantly collapsed.
The seawater poured into the barrier with the pressure. Soon, the ancient merman statue that had stood at the bottom of the sea for ten thousand years was pushed down.
The statue fell towards Yu Huang and the others.
Sheng Xiao shouted, âRun!â He helped Beatrice up and swam towards Feng Yuncheng and the others with Donor.
Seeing this, Estelle hurriedly followed. Yu Huang subconsciously turned around to pull Kunlunâs hand, but Kunlun stared blankly at the statue and shouted, âNo!â
Kunlun pushed Yu Huang in the direction where Sheng Xiao and the others were swimming, while he ran against the waves towards the fallen statue. Kunlun opened its arms and used all his strength to catch the fallen statue.
