Wang Lin didnât display this violent shift in emotion. His eyes gradually calmed, but behind this calmness was a flame that was burning brightly.
He wasnât the first to step forward; he waited for others to state their requests before he slowly walked forward. He clasped his hands at Master Flamespark and respectfully said, âJunior has a request!â
Master Flamespark looked at Wang Lin and calmly said, âXu Mu, speak your request.â
âJuniorâs request is for a broken nascent soul to reform flesh and awaken!â As Wang Lin spoke, there was no change in his voice. However, his heart pounded as if it was going to burst out of his chest.
âOh?â Master Flamesparkâs eyes narrowed. He pondered a bit before looking at old man Xiang and saying, âThis request isnât difficult. Since ancient times, the Xiang family has had a spell that is said to be very magical. It should be able to meet your requirements. How about it, Fellow Cultivator Xiang?â
Old man Xiang faintly smiled. He admired Wang Lin a lot. He smiled and said, âXu Mu, I presume the nascent soul you speak of had their body destroyed and suffered serious injuries. This caused them to go into sleep. This shouldnât be difficult! Take out the nascent soul and let this old man exam it first!â
Wang Lin silently pondered. Li Muwan was very important to him and was irreplaceable. She was also someone he had to protect, and at this moment, he hesitated. He raised his right hand and touched his bag of holding. A small ball of light immediately flew out.
In the first three days at the Thunder Celestial Temple, Wang Lin had already taken out Li Muwanâs nascent soul from the heaven defying bead when no one was around. He had sealed her with the Annihilation Restriction so her nascent soul wouldnât dissipate.
All of it was for this moment.
Holding the ball of light with his right hand, Wang Linâs left hand touched it. The ball of light opened up like a flower, revealing the nascent soul cultivating inside.
This nascent soul was Li Muwan. Her face was pale and she was sitting in the lotus position. Her whole body gave off a sense of weakness, as if she would dissipate completely if the wind blew on her.
There was a layer of light on her body. This made Li Muwan look very holy. She looked like a celestial that had descended from the heavens and landed in Wang Linâs hand.
Although she was asleep and never awake, people were still able to feel Li Muwanâs gentleness and kindness.
Her appearance was very beautiful. Even though she wasnât as stunning as Liu Mei or as bright as Red Butterfly, in Wang Linâs heart, what did those things count for!?
Back then, Lin Muwan aged rapidly in his arms.
Everything turned to ash and disappeared. Only one thing echoed inside Wang Linâs heart.
âEven if the heavens want you to die, Iâll take you back!!â
For this sentence, Wang Lin came to the Allheaven Star System! For this sentence, he stood before the Thunder Celestial Temple!
When Wang Lin took out Li Muwanâs nascent soul, Xi Zifeng, who had her eye locked onto Wang Lin, almost collapsed. Her face was pale, her body trembled, and she felt her heart shatter.
âSo it turns out⦠He went through all these tests for this womanâ¦â Tears came out from Xi Zifengâs eyes. As she looked at the nascent soul in his hand, her heart ached and she felt bitterness in her heart.
âTo have her lover do all of this, although her nascent soul is damaged and asleep, this is happiness.â
Qing Shui looked at Wang Lin and the nascent soul in Wang Linâs palm before a hint of melancholy appeared in his eyes. Many years ago, he also had a woman he would guard with his life. It was just⦠Qing Shuiâs eyes revealed agony.
When old man Xiang looked at Li Muwanâs nascent soul, his smile froze. As he looked at Li Muwanâs nascent soul, he slowly frowned and asked, âHow long has this nascent soul slept for?â
Wang Lin took a deep breath. At this moment, his determination from his 1,000 years of cultivation was extremely fragile. Suppressing his trembling mind, he softly said, âNearly 700 years.â
Old man Xiang nodded slightly and said, âIt looks like you spent a lot of effort to preserve this nascent soul for 700 years. However⦠700 years is too long. How can a Nascent Soul cultivator survive for 700 years? Not to mention the fact that she has lost her flesh and only her nascent soul remains!
âAnd above all else, this nascent soul is slowly dying! Xu Mu, change your request!â Old man Xiang sighed. He wanted to help this Xu Mu, so he gave him a chance to change his request.
Old man Xiangâs voice was like a sharp needle that mercilessly stabbed Wang Linâs heart. This kind of pain felt as if the world before him had collapsed. There was only desolation and nothing remained.
This pain caused Wang Linâs will to live to fade. Those words echoed in his mind again and again like thunder.
âIs there really no wayâ¦â Wang Linâs eyes were filled with extreme sadness as he looked at Li Muwan.
Old man Xiang let out a long sigh. He took another careful look at Li Muwanâs nascent soul and shook his head. âIf this old manâs guess isnât wrong, she died due to her lifespan being up and you used a special method to extract her nascent soul and then nourished it. However, just as the nourishment was about to succeed, an accident happened at the key moment. This made it so her nascent soul couldnât withstand it. Although you saved her, the truth is that she is already on the verge of death.
âI canât help you with my strength. She is someone who should have died already. Forcibly making her stay is a painful matter for you and her! The only thing I can do is help you send her to the reincarnation cycle.â
Wang Linâs body flickered and he retreated a few step. His face was pale and he coughed out blood and revealed a miserable smile. He looked at Li Muwanâs nascent soul in his hand.
His memories of Li Muwan flashed before his eyes. The feeling of his heart aching filled his body. This pain pierced his bones and shredded his heart. Two streams of tears came from Wang Linâs eyes. In his lifetime, the amount of time he shed tears could be counted with one hand.
Looking at Li Muwan, an unyielding flame ignited inside Wang Linâs heart.
âEven if the heavens want you to die, Iâll take you back. Wan Er, this is my commitment to you!â Wang Lin raised his right hand and grabbed Li Muwanâs nascent soul. The seal immediately shrank and formed a small ball once more.
Old man Xiang silently pondered. After a long time, he suddenly said, âIt isnât that there is absolutely no method!â
Wang Linâs body trembled as if tens of thousands bolts of thunder had exploded in his body. At this moment, all of his energy focused in his eyes as he looked at old man Xiang.
âHowever, the price for this method is too great. The key to why this woman canât survive is that her lifespan is up. If you can expend her lifespan, there might be a chance. This spell is called the Qixi spell. However, I am unable to use it, only the ancient ancestor that is in closed door cultivation can use it.
âXu Mu, I have to warn you that to use the Qixi spell requires the life force of someone very close to this woman. This is the only way for there to be no rejection. However, the person whoâs giving life will have their longevity reduced. This kind of reduction isnât equal. You must give up 90% of your life for only a sliver of a chance of this woman recovering.
âHowever, this is only a sliver of a chance. If it doesnât succeed, your lifespan wonât recover. Please think about it carefully. If you agree, I can take your request to the ancestor once!â
The surroundings were completely silent. The Xiang family ancestorâs voice echoed across the heavens and earth and fell on everyoneâs ears. At this moment, all the cultivators in the Allheaven Star System heard his words.
For a sliver of a chance for this woman to revive, he would have to give up most of his lifespan. Was this worth it or notâ¦
This question troubled the heart of every cultivator that heard it.
Old man Xiang really admired Wang Lin. He had no selfish goal or malicious intent when he said this before every cultivator in the Allheaven Star System.
Wang Lin looked at the restriction ball in his hand. His gaze seemed to be able to penetrate it as he looked at Li Muwan and slowly said, âI agree!â
His voice was a bit hoarse. His gaze seemed to pierce the restriction ball and fell on Li Muwan. A sense of sadness filled the area. Li Muwan seemed to have heard his voice, and her body trembled gently and she tried to open her eyes. However, she had no strength; she only felt endless fatigue and sadness.
Wang Lin knew that lifespan came from vitality. The stronger the vitality, the longer the lifespan. When a cultivatorâs cultivation level increases, their vitality increases. This was why powerful cultivators had long lives.
Old man Xiang nodded and said, âSince you agree, once the celestial bestowment is complete, follow me to planet Dong Lin!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The reminiscence remained in Qing Shuiâs eyes. There was a hint of melancholy as he gently said, âXu Mu, Iâll go with you!â
Wang Lin looked at Qing Shui and his eyes revealed gratitude. He nodded. He knew that Qing Shui was worried about something happening to him at planet Dong Lin. Qing Shui decided to accompany him to ensure this matter proceeded smoothly.
After this, the remaining people all made their requests. What was worth mentioning was that both Xu Ting and Nangong Han made the same request. They requested to enter the Treasure Pavilion to learn celestial spells. After everyone obtained their rewards, the celestial bestowment ended!
The moment it ended, Master Flamesparkâs laughter echoed. He floated above his praying mat and waved his sleeve. His eyes shined and he shouted, âFellow cultivators, help me open up the passage to the Alliance Star System. The war is about to begin!â
