Chapter 755: Chapter 717: Pang Lin’s Soul_1

"Alien Tribes?"

Several True Gods revealed a look of suspicion at this statement.

The Ghost Mother’s expression was gloomy as she stared straight at Pang Jian’s face and said in a low voice, "That woman did not appear any different from our Human Race and did not possess a special bloodline, utterly unlike the Alien Tribes from the Fifth Realm."

"But her soul was clearly different from ours, and I am most sensitive to this aspect!"

"I am certain she is from a different race, one that we have never seen in Purgatory, a very strange race!"

"Is this what you want to know?"

The true name of the Ghost Mother, Pang Xuan, she shared the facts she knew.

Pang Jian’s heart caused great waves as he took a deep breath and asked, "How did that woman die?"

"I have only seen her once, how would I know how she died?" The Ghost Mother snorted coldly, a mocking smile forming on her lips, originally intending to say a few more words.

But after hesitating, she ultimately chose to remain silent.

In the history of the Gui Sacrificial Sect, Pang Qi had left a very brief, yet extremely vivid and profound trace.

As a True God of the Gui Sacrificial Sect and a direct descendant of the Pang Fei lineage, how could she be unaware of Pang Qi’s existence?

Having met Pang Qi, who was a Realm God, how could she be ignorant about her visitor’s background?

When Pang Jian suddenly emerged in Purgatory and Li Wang personally told her that Pang Jian was the Realm God of this era, combining Pang Jian’s surname and appearance, she naturally surmised the connection between Pang Jian and Pang Qi.

However, a person like her had long since diluted much emotion.

Having become a True God, she was eternally indestructible. Her own Pang Family relatives, those closer ancestors and descendants, she could indifferently watch them die generation after generation.

Having witnessed too much life and death, her heart set on breaking free from Purgatory, she had cut off too many unrelated emotions.

Even knowing that Pang Jian was related to her, she never mentioned it, not caring at all.

This time, when Pang Jian suddenly brought up a woman, it caused her to recall some matters. She felt even Pang Jian’s identity as part of the Human Race might be an issue, which she was about to reveal just now.

But thinking of today’s Pang Jian, possessing the power to easily kill her, she wisely kept her mouth shut.

"Alien woman..."

The group of True Gods looked surprised, pondering.

Next, Pang Jian asked a few more questions but did not obtain more information about his parents from Li Wang or the Ghost Mother, only to leave in disappointment.

"As for the Old Dragon in the Dragon Cave, if he is still alive, you might as well ask Him," Li Wang suggested, "The fallen Mysterious Turtle, along with Him, are the Demon Gods that have spanned several eras, having more contact with the previous generation Realm God than we have."

"The True Gods on our side who communicated more frequently with your father are either fallen or have successfully left for worlds beyond.

"The more I think about it, those who lived longer and had more contact with him are, for now, only Long Xiao."

Li Wang provided another train of thought.

...

Panshi Fragment Land.

A golden beehive was headed in the direction of the Forbidden Land of Thunder God.

Soon after, the "Nine Heavens Thunder God Tree" that towered three thousand feet high, with branches entwined with dazzling lightning, producing "Tao Fruits," came into view of the bee insect’s eyes.

Above the tree canopy, the green Giant Dragon that had dominated Purgatory for years had its body greatly reduced in size.

The branches, like Divine Weapon Sharp Blades, pierced through its body, drawing the life force from its flesh and devouring the thunderous lightning it had accumulated for ten thousand years, transforming it into more "Tao Fruits."

Below the Divine Tree, a sweet-looking girl sat cross-legged. With her back against the roots of the Divine Tree covered with dragon scales, she was immersed in her own world of enlightenment.

Outside the valley.

The honest-looking Rock Bear, in human form, knelt before the Old Black Turtle and said, "Although Elder Long had his own agenda, he truly valued those dragons in the Dragon Cave and indeed worked diligently for our race for many years."

"I do not expect Him to remain aloof and retain His lofty status; I only hope He can survive,"

"I know that only if you plead on His behalf might Pang Jian be lenient. Please grant Him a chance to live,"

Rock Bear, who had succeeded in advancing to Demon God only with the help of Old Black Turtle and Pang Jian, naturally felt immense gratitude towards Old Black Turtle. Nevertheless, at this moment, he still knelt down and earnestly implored Old Black Turtle to make a plea.

"I have advised Him countless times, but He would not listen and insisted on going His own way," sighed the Mysterious Turtle.

Looking up at Long Xiao, whose dragon body had been penetrated by the "Nine Heavens Thunder God Tree" and who had already given up struggling, with dragon eyes closed, the Mysterious Turtle said, "I will try."

At that moment, a Golden Bee Insect, flapping its wings, headed towards the deep valley where the "Nine Heavens Thunder God Tree" took root.

"I will take you with me to try,"

The Mysterious Turtle’s expression shifted as he led Rock Bear from the outside of the valley towards the inside.

...

"Brother!"

Pang Lin opened her eyes and reached up from under the tree. A brand-new "Thunderbolt Tao Fruit" fell into her grasp.

As soon as the "Tao Fruit" reached her hand, it vanished into her palm.

Immediately, within her dantian’s natural Thunder Vortex, there surged additional strands of lightning containing Tao principles and Dao Marks.

Seeing the Bee Insect pause before her eyes, her eyebrows and eyes brimmed with smiles as she said, "I don’t know why, but as soon as those Thunderbolt Profound Argumentation recorded in the Tao Fruit merge into my Thunder Vortex, I immediately master them."

"That is innate talent," laughed the Bee Insect.

"Brother, why did you suddenly find time to visit me? I heard that you have been sending people all over the world to search for treasures that restore power, intending to send them to the Fifth Realm, You should be quite busy recently, shouldn’t you?" Pang Lin asked curiously.

"I’m almost done with my busy work." Pang Jian, who had originally come to seek information from Long Xiao, observed Pang Lin through the vision of the Bee Insect, and suddenly a question arose in his mind. So he asked, "What did you gain from that segment of Divine Bones of Heaven Phoenix?"

"A lot!" responded Pang Lin without hesitation.

After some thought, she specified, "My body has been tempered by that segment of Divine Bones: my tendons, viscera, flesh, and even my Spiritual Soul have been carefully refined."

"There are many secret skills related to the bloodlines of the Demon Race that have merged into my spirit. They are vast and profound, and I have not yet fully comprehended them."

"There are numerous profundities related to darkness, brightness, destruction, poison, and so on that also merged into my mind during the inheritance process, nearly overwhelming me."

"However, I feel that I did not pay attention to those that I found irrelevant,"

Pang Lin naturally expressed her feelings.

"What exactly is your Spiritual Soul like?" Pang Jian asked again.

"Most of the time, my Spiritual Soul takes the form of a sea, but it can also shift to the same form as my true body at will," Pang Lin said, her brows slightly furrowed.

From the depths of her brow, her Spiritual Soul quietly emerged, appearing as a spirit-like young girl with a pale blue aura.

"Whoosh!"

The Spiritual Soul transformed again into a mysterious deep sea of the same pale blue color.

In that pale blue deep sea, countless sparkling crystals floated, seemingly containing the inheritance secrets from Heaven Phoenix that she had mentioned earlier.

Brightness, darkness, destruction, poison, and other contaminants from the origins of the Fifth Realm were all present in those crystals.

These were all deep impressions.

Yet Pang Lin did not attempt to resolve or comprehend them; she allowed them to remain deep within her Spiritual Soul, focusing only on what she felt was useful.

"And the segment of Divine Bones?" asked Pang Jian, astonished.

"It has long been refined by me, becoming a part of my body," said Pang Lin offhandedly.
