Chapter 240: Chapter 237: The Old Era Has Ended!

... Ding... ding ding...

Once again, the pleasant sound of a zither arose.

Liang Hui’s eyes closed as he listened quietly.

"You can live."

"But I seek death!"

"Is that so?"

"That’s all there is to it."

After a few simple exchanges, the two no longer spoke, and only the sound of the zither conveyed their sentiments within the Taoist temple.

But even the sound of the zither must come to an end.

Bang!

Qing Yi exerted force in her palm, shattering the ancient zither outright.

She stood up and slowly walked over to sit beside Liang Hui.

"How fares the world?"

"It all returns to the Divine Court."

"Is that so?"

Qing Yi murmured softly, her gaze gently curving, seemingly quite content.

"Is the era when everyone was like a dragon about to arrive once more?"

"Alas, the sect has missed the opportunity once again."

"Divine Emperor Your Majesty, may I be the one to send off the Yuan Yang sect on their final journey?"

Liang Hui remained silent, not replying immediately.

Images of the past continuously flashed through his mind.

After a moment.

His palm reached out, and a copper bell, radiating the glow of the Eternal Radiance, appeared above it.

He then gently floated it over in front of Qing Yi.

"Goddess, if there is still a chance, next time when you escort them, do not go into battle alone—stay closer to me."

Qing Yi’s eyes lowered as she extended her hand to grasp the Flowing Light Bell.

In an instant, she knew how to activate the bell to demolish the Yuan Yang sect.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

She shook it three times in succession.

All disciples of the Yuan Yang sect, both within and outside, perished in an instant.

Including Qing Yi, whose soul shattered and flesh dissipated, she would die the following moment.

Her white clothes stained with blood, indescribably bleak.

Her eyes slowly lifted, carrying a trace of complexity in the stillness of death.

"Liang Hui, how can you be sure that I didn’t intentionally leave that day to give you a chance to choose?"

It sounded like a soft sigh, a quiet chant, but with no hint of regret.

Her body gradually dissipated into dust.

A silent thunder resonated within Liang Hui’s heart.

It left him momentarily stunned.

When he looked back, the spacious palace had been left with only the young man.

The Flowing Light Bell and a red bead quietly floated in midair.

Liang Hui’s expression became more complicated, his eyes revealing helplessness.

He reached out his palm, and both the Flowing Light Bell and the red bead hovered onto it.

He raised his arm and grasped the red bead.

In an instant, various Jade Slips and Martial Tomes stored inside the bead were reflected into Liang Hui’s heart.

The myriad thoughts in the young man’s heart all turned into a light sigh.

"Do you not wish to witness this grand and flourishing era at all? Death is not the ultimate end, after all."

His figure then vanished within the Taoist temple.

As Liang Hui disappeared, centered around the vermilion Taoist temple, the entire Yuan Yang sect began to collapse and disintegrate.

Thousands of miles away from the Yuan Yang sect.

The young man stood atop the mountain, listening to the sounds of collapse behind him.

No matter how complex his feelings were, he knew clearly that the old era had completely become history, and a new era was about to be born in his hands.

He turned around!

He took one last look at the rising dust.

Transformed into a sword light, he fled towards Tuzhou.

...

Time flew by, and seven days had passed.

News that the Western Desert Buddhist Sect’s pure land and the various grassland tribes had all submitted and merged into the Divine Court spread throughout the world.

The common people were in an uproar, even though they knew this day was bound to come, they didn’t expect it to arrive so swiftly.

The world was unified as one.

A force that had just emerged within the Divine Court completed a feat unprecedented in history.

Tuzhou.

A sword light, crimson gold in color, hovered outside the Divine Court.

Liang Hui, holding the Flowing Light Bell, looked down at the Divine Court, now several times more prosperous, and lightly tapped his forehead.

During his absence, Qing Tian had done well.

With a gentle shake of the bell in his palm, two figures had already fallen in front of the mountain gate.

Before the Sect Master of the Demon Spirit Sect and the Red Lotus Holy Mother even had a chance to struggle and speak, a palm was already pressed against their foreheads.

Their fuzzy consciousness instantly became clear.

But then, a bit of golden light began to emanate from their foreheads, quickly enveloping their entire bodies and turning them into golden statues kneeling in front of the mountain gate.

"Kneel for ten thousand years, then I will grant you oblivion."

With large strides, Liang Hui walked past the kneeling statues and into the Divine Court.

Soon, a slender figure leaning against the Coiling Dragon Column appeared within his sight.

The young girl wore a black dress, her delicate face carried a light smile, and her eyes brimmed with vitality.

"Hui, welcome back home."

Liang Hui paused in his steps and sized up Su Yao’s graceful figure.

"Not bad, you broke through to the Blood Exchange level."

"It was a fortunate breakthrough; I still fall far short of you, Hui."

Liang Hui smiled and took steps forward to the side of the girl, extending an invitation:

"This trip to the Western Desert and the grasslands yielded many precious materials and odd stones. I’m preparing to reforge the Eternal Spear, and also craft an artifact to suppress the Divine Court."

"Come along, and I’ll also create a suitable weapon for you."

This decision was one Liang Hui had made on the way back.

After shattering top forces one after another, Liang Hui had obtained many materials seldom seen, enough to take the Eternal Spear to the next level.

And incidentally, affirm the artifact of the Divine Court.

"An artifact of the Divine Court?" Su Yao glanced at the small copper bell in Liang Hui’s hair.

"Alright, let’s go together."

"By the way, Hui, what kind of artifact are you planning to create for the Divine Court? Is it a bell?"

The young man shook his head; he was not planning to craft a bell, for that was the artifact of his Divine Court.

He began to walk towards the Casting Pavilion, speaking as he went: "A cauldron, a tower, a mirror—one of these three types; choose one."

Pausing in his steps, Liang Hui seemed to recall something.

"What do you think would be appropriate?"

"Me?"

"A tower! It will be quite handy to suppress and grind down major realms."

Layers of ripples stirred in the depth of Su Yao’s eyes as she spoke without hesitation.

Liang Hui nodded.

Taking big steps forward, it wasn’t long before he arrived at the forging grounds under the command of the Divine Court.

Without hesitation, he pushed open the grand doors and entered a secret realm.

Molten lava flowed upon the earth, while celestial fire fell continuously from the sky.

The sounds of weapons being forged echoed incessantly.

"Divine Emperor Your Majesty!"

"Imperial Consort Your Highness!"

Respectful voices came from ahead.

An elder with fiery red hair stood with his hands clasped on top of the molten lava, looking at the two of them.

This person was the head of the Weapon Forging Pavilion, also the one with the highest weapon and Magic Artifact crafting skill, and a powerful figure from the Divine Soldiers Valley’s godly line.

"Elder Huo, I wish to reforge the Eternal Spear and incidentally create an artifact for the Divine Court."

"Here are the materials I have prepared."

A ring flew out from the young man’s bosom, floating towards the elder.

Seeing the elder take the ring,

Liang Hui gestured for the girl at his side to speak.

With a serene expression on her pretty face and calmness in her beautiful eyes, Su Yao spoke:

"Please, Elder Huo, craft a bracelet for my Imperial Consort, this is a gift from His Majesty."

She articulated the last few words with particular seriousness.

At that moment, Elder Huo slowly withdrew his consciousness from the ring, his expression agitated, unable to focus on Su Yao’s words.

Each material in the ring was worthy of being a treasure of the valley in Divine Soldiers Valley, yet now they were casually piled up in the space.

Whew~

Elder Huo exhaled deeply, steadying the tumult within his heart.

"Your Majesty, with these materials, reforging the Eternal Spear will not be difficult, and it will definitely become even more formidable."

"And the Imperial Consort’s request is also easily met."

"But to forge the essential artifact of the Divine Court, I alone cannot accomplish it."
