The Female Cannon Fodder With Boundless Merits

Chapter 522: Chapter 526 Beast Taming Queen (16)

At that moment, she even hoped that she could preserve this mark, as there might still be a glimmer of hope in returning to the Cultivation World.

Yet she also harbored resentment; the Exotic Beast had been so brutally cruel to her.

Now she could freely express her hatred toward her enemy, but who cared?

Su Li felt she had been merciful enough—she hadn’t taken Mei Gui’s life, merely returned what had been done to her unaltered.

While passing through the spatial barriers, Su Li had slightly tricked the world’s consciousness, ensuring that within a million years, this world’s Heavenly Dao wouldn’t advance to a higher level.

However, there was a better solution—completely merging the Heavenly Dao with the world consciousness, eradicating its consciousness to become the most impartial judge of this world. This was indeed possible to achieve.

A Heavenly Dao with personal desires and bias, if advanced too easily to a higher-level world, would face not rejuvenation but destruction.

The destruction of the world’s consciousness didn’t matter much, as a new consciousness would emerge from the rules, but Su Li didn’t want to see countless billions of lives destroyed alongside it due to its selfishness.

In any case, Su Li had no affection for the Heavenly Dao of this small world.

When Su Li first set foot in the Upper Realm, she was greeted immediately by a destructive beam of light.

After several ups and downs, barely dodging the inexplicably sudden attack, she didn’t pause to contemplate the situation, as a second attack swiftly followed.

While dodging, Su Li caught a glimpse from the corner of her eye of someone against the light, looking down indifferently at the masses below... a god...

In his eyes, which regarded her as though she were a dead thing, she saw a faint irritation, like a plan being disrupted.

Suddenly, Su Li realized in the Upper Realm there were only two who had grievances against her.

One was said to be the Buddha from the Buddha Country, and another, who existed in the original owner’s memory.

Before Mei Gui had ascended to the Upper Realm, attracted too many men’s gazes, after realizing his different feelings for Mei Gui, the hasty Tian Lin Emperor had revealed his identity.

Su Li was furious about being attacked; she hadn’t even gone to trouble him yet, and he had already come personally to blockade and attempt to kill her.

This was intolerable, absolutely intolerable.

Flames rapidly spread along his attack, climbing onto the body of Tian Lin Emperor.

The proud Tian Lin Emperor’s eyes flickered with a trace of mockery as he casually gazed at Su Li, showing no reaction to the flame.

Just a newly ascended lowly Heavenly Immortal daring to think she could harm him seemed utterly ludicrous...

Soon, Tian Lin Emperor could not laugh anymore; the one with ludicrous ideas had become himself.

The flame promptly climbed onto his body, quickly burning a corner of his clothes; the speed was so fast that Tian Lin Emperor couldn’t stop it.

He could feel a searing heat approaching his face, causing his Divine Soul to flicker unstably with pain.

He hadn’t felt the sensation of pain for who knows how many tens of thousands of years, and re-experiencing it was not at all pleasant.

Soon, he had no mind to think about anything else, as the flame on his body couldn’t be easily extinguished.

Had he not swiftly removed his vestment robe and quickly applied a layer of defense to his skin, he could have ended up either embarrassingly naked or suffering physically to completely extinguish the bizarre flame.

This was not the true Phoenix Flame, a fire which Tian Lin Emperor had encountered before and was not as fierce.

Whether it was his vestment robe or his own body, forged like a Magical Treasure, the level of its hardness was rarely seen.

The disheveled figure of Tian Lin Emperor did not detract from his unsurpassed looks; rather, his usually indifferent demeanor, now different, added a hint of vitality.

Imagining such a cold deity, Su Li couldn’t envision him fawning over someone merely luckier, as remembered by the original owner.

Yes, it was groveling.

In the memories of the original owner from later times, this Emperor went to great lengths for Mei Gui, considering every possibility.

He even turned into a lovesick fool, tolerating the men around Mei Gui, barely showing a hint of jealousy while accepting the others’ presence.

Although the original owner never saw this Emperor’s true form until his death, he could piece together a general image from his actions.

On seeing him now, Su Li couldn’t believe they were actually the same person.

This bizarre sense of dissonance filled every corner of the Emperor’s being, sparking a desire to investigate.

In a trance, Su Li seemed to see a different emotion flowing between the Emperor of Tian Lin’s left and right eyes.

The former was indifferent, the latter capricious...

If the gaze on the left was cold and aloof, the one on the right brimmed with deep-seated hatred.

Hatred?

A beam of Spirit Light burst in Su Li’s mind, and suddenly she understood.

This look in the right eye did indeed match the Divine Soul she’d learned about from the original owner’s memories.

But this all felt like a delusion from Su Li; upon closer inspection, aside from the cold indifference, what other emotions could there be?

Su Li suddenly remembered a rumor she heard in one of the small worlds.

Back then, as an elder Cultivator in the Cultivation World, aside from her practices, her favorite activity was to curl up in her cave dwelling, delving into all sorts of bizarre tales and Ancient Books.

She had seen this in an old, yellowed notebook.

All the lower realm Cultivators thought that after Ascension to the Upper Realm to become Immortal Gods, they would enjoy an endless life coexisting with heaven and earth, thus Ascension was every Cultivator’s ultimate goal.

The reality was different however; while becoming an Immortal God extended one’s life, it was not infinite.

Immortal Gods would die too, through various means.

Even the highly revered Emperor would suffer from the Heavenly Person Five Decays, only surviving by successfully overcoming these calamities.

Su Li thought, even the dispassionate Immortal Gods couldn’t maintain their composure in the face of such a great life-and-death calamity.

----------

The Emperor of Tian Lin missed his strike and instead got himself burned, thereafter he stopped attacking.

"Good, very good."

A mischievous thought crossed Su Li’s mind, and she said with a naughty smirk, "I can help you, that thing is my enemy too..."

The face of the Emperor in front of her twisted into two distinct expressions.

On one side, it remained an expression of icy detachment; on the other, it twisted into a venomous sneer like that of a Poison Snake.

It seemed like he had split into two.

"I’m going to kill you..." The Emperor of Tian Lin formed a talisman with his right hand, but his left hand forcefully grasped his right, preventing it from moving.

Soon, the right side of his face returned to normal, no longer carrying the frightening madness of before.

It seemed the tribulations of the Emperor of Tian Lin had indeed turned inwards.
