Chapter 178: Chapter 178 Qing Tian!

Afterward, the two began to exchange insights on cultivation.

Exchange, in reality, was more of a one-sided guidance from Liang Hui to Feng Li.

At the mountain peak under the moonlight.

Liang Hui spoke in a gentle manner, discussing the issues one should pay attention to in Life Origin cultivation.

Occasionally, he even extended his palm to demonstrate.

The woman sitting opposite him listened attentively to the young man’s words.

At this moment, it was like a reflection of a past time, yet the one instructing had changed from Feng Li to Liang Hui.

The moon slowly descended, and a hint of gold appeared at the edge of the earth, heralding the rising sun.

The young man slowly stood up, smoothing out the creases in his clothing with his hand.

"I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation this night, and look forward to our next meeting," he said.

"I feel the same, your prowess at the Lifebound Level far exceeds mine," replied Feng Li as she stood up, her gaze warm, the initial strangeness from their meeting already dissipated.

The young man nodded, reaching out his palm as a pale, white Jade Slip emerged in his hand.

"Take a look at this; it might be more suitable for you."

"The Taoist Scriptures of the Red Lotus Sect are profound, but I don’t know how many traps that old dog has hidden within them," he commented.

"And the scriptures from the Lan Yue Pavilion are too elementary," he added.

Upon hearing this, curiosity also surfaced in Feng Li’s eyes.

She reached out, took the Jade Slip, and delved her consciousness into it.

A look of astonishment immediately appeared on her lovely face.

"This is... this is..." she stammered.

"One of the Fundamental Daoist Scriptures of the Star Moon Tower, though the Jade Slip only contains the methods of cultivation up to the Primordial Spirit, and the corresponding secret techniques," he explained.

"Nevertheless, once you step onto the path of the Dao, I will obtain the subsequent content for you."

The young man withdrew his hand, his expression calm.

With the number of Star Moon Tower disciples he had slain, combined with the Dream-Entering Divine Ability,

he could almost say he had emptied out a great portion of the Star Moon Tower’s martial arts and scriptures.

Liang Hui then took a storage necklace out from his bosom and passed it over.

"These are the corresponding cultivation resources; take them," he offered.

Feng Li nodded, accepted the necklace, and placed it solemnly in her bosom.

"I’m off!" he announced.

"Take care on your journey," she responded.

After bidding farewell, Liang Hui’s figure had already disappeared from the spot.

Only Feng Li remained, watching the rising sun, her face smiling, a mix of both cold beauty and charm.

"I finally understand why most people in that memory were willing to stand behind you, Your Majesty," she mused.

"So generous and trustworthy."

Elsewhere.

At Crimson Moon Peak, a woman dressed in a purple gown sat cross-legged on a cushion.

Suddenly, her eyes opened, and a great sun emerged before her.

In an instant, all her secret techniques and contingencies were sliced through, resting at her neck.

"If you think of using the Demon Seed inside you to save your life, with the next swing, I’ll end you," a harsh voice declared.

Shocked, Huang Wu halted her movements, her expression one of astonishment as she looked ahead.

But beyond the dazzling golden light, she saw nothing else.

"Who might you be?" she asked.

"I ask, you answer, and you may live," was the curt reply.

Liang Hui had no intention of responding to her.

"Are you Huang Wu?" he inquired.

"Huang Wu?" she murmured softly to herself.

Since the other party knew about the Demon Seed and Divine Fetus, she figured they likely wanted to confirm her true identity.

"My memories are of Huang Wu, and my brothers, nephews, and friends have shown me decades of unfeigned closeness," she said.

"I am Huang Wu," she affirmed.

Acknowledging her response, he said, "I see. Well then, goodbye."

Liang Hui, after confirming Huang Wu was normal and would not pose a threat to Feng Li, withdrew his sword light.

The golden sun vanished within the palace.

And when Huang Wu regained her sight, everything before her was empty, except for a storage ring placed on the ground.

She stood up, picked up the ring, and after a glance inside with her consciousness,

her expression turned odd.

"This should be compensation, right?"

...

After confirming that Huang Wu was safe.

Liang Hui transformed into a sword light and left the Lan Yue Pavilion.

The surrounding scenery whizzed past his eyes, and his mind was still pondering why the Sect Master of the Demon Spirit Sect would appear here.

Was it a coincidence or something else?

Suddenly, the wind stopped, and the dust along with all things in the world froze, as if time itself had come to a standstill.

"What is this?"

Liang Hui’s thoughts flowed as he stepped forward through the sky.

However, within his mind, the Flowing Light Bell was already on the highest alert.

Wherever his gaze settled, all things had fallen into stillness.

"But why can I still move?"

Suddenly,

a white jade bridge began to extend from the Vault of Heaven.

It stopped in front of the young man.

At that moment, it seemed as if every blade of grass and every living thing was cheering.

"Fellow Daoist, please!"

Liang Hui hesitated for a moment but then took a step forward.

He stepped onto the white jade bridge and walked toward the end of the sky.

At the end stood a celestial woman.

She was a woman in green, with skin like ice and bones like jade, her hair soft and shiny, her eyes like black sapphires, brimming with spirit; a glance from her was captivating beyond comparison.

Her eyes lowered, she watched the approaching young man.

She then sat down directly, waved her hand gracefully, and a jade-colored long table appeared before her.

On the table were various fruits, each glowing and emanating a lush fragrance.

"Fellow Daoist, we finally meet."

"I have witnessed the world’s collapse, countless unparalleled geniuses, and outstanding people, but I have never seen a hero like you."

Liang Hui did not reply, instead carefully observing the woman before him.

With the help of the Flowing Light Bell, he gleaned a hint of the essence of vast landscapes and all things in the world.

Such essence was unparalleled, with nothing higher beyond.

How could such a powerful being exist in this world?

His thoughts raced in his mind until a flash of spiritual light.

"The world!"

But how was it possible? The fact that the world possessed basic sentience was already shocking to him.

Now to tell him that such sentience had reached this extent.

Liang Hui’s expression was solemn as he slowly sat down opposite her at the table.

"The world?"

"Your bell is indeed a divine artifact destined for the Divine Court in the future, capable of obliterating worlds."

The woman laughed lightly, giving him a sensation of incredible astonishment, as if carrying all the beauty of the world.

"However, I am not the world; you may call me Qing Tian."

"Qing Tian?"

Having a name like Heaven itself surely signified something.

This also led him to speculate a little on why the city provided no prior warning.

It certainly had a problem.

This entity named Qing Tian was evidently full of human emotions.

"There’s no need for surprise. I am the most dazzling flash of consciousness of the world, but I have already separated from it with all wisdom, becoming an independent individual."

"That is to say, from now on, I can be injured, grow old, and die."

"And the world will be left with only the most pure instincts."

The woman extended her hand and tapped the table lightly, her expression tranquil.

"Such a great sacrifice, what is it that you seek?"

Liang Hui could hardly imagine what something that had nearly been immortal and possessed boundless might would want so badly to step into such a state.

"Transcendence!"

The firm words came from Qing Tian’s mouth.

"The world turns, and at some point, I gained consciousness, experienced extreme sorrow, ultimate happiness, and all of the world’s myriad aspects, gradually developing indescribable feelings."

"To use human terms, that is to say, I have developed emotions and desires."

"Thus, I do not wish to perish. And as time changes, the world itself will decay. How could this fleeting spark of consciousness escape that fate?"

Qing Tian, with profound eyes, relayed her thoughts.

Liang Hui’s mouth quirked into a slight smile, calmly looking across the table at Heaven.
