The most melodramatic rebirth in history

Chapter 373 A Thousand Years of Solitude [Part 3]

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

Feng Ling and the others revealed their sharpness, their strength having increased significantly. Leng Ning Shuang, in particular, received a divine stone from the Night Ghost King as a reward and has officially stepped into the fifteenth level of the Mortal Saint Realm.

Of course, she paid a heavy price. First, the five epic inheritances fused within her body were stripped away one by one by the Night Demon King using a strange secret method.

During that time, the feeling of having her tendons and bones pulled out was excruciating, yet she stubbornly endured the pain and gave a slight smile to Feng Ling and Feng Yuqing, who were trying to stop her.

The two looked at it, their hearts breaking.

Perhaps, long ago, when Leng Ning Shuang decided to seize all the epic inheritance for Feng Ling, she already knew that this day would come...

"suddenly……"

A pale purple plum blossom mark flickered between Leng Ningshuang's brows, its light gradually fading as if it might go out at any moment.

Everyone waited anxiously.

"Senior, what's the situation?"

Feng Ling wanted to interrupt several times, but he was worried about triggering a backlash from the secret technique, so he had to give up.

Until the arcane energy dissipated...

Five mysterious marks emerged in a black and white intertwined pattern, causing the entire space to tremble silently.

"This little girl has extraordinary perseverance and a good character. No wonder she was able to gain the unanimous approval of the other deputy city lords and integrate several inheritances."

The Night Demon King glanced sideways at the haggard, cross-legged woman in the white dress and clicked his tongue in amazement. He then waved his hand and sent five profound marks into Feng Ling's body, who was examining him closely. He said irritably, "It's just exhaustion. How could an epic overlord of the Mortal Saint Realm fall so easily? Quickly refine the five epic inheritances, and I will teach you how to activate and utilize the power of the great formation!"

Once it was confirmed that Leng Ning Shuang was unharmed, Feng Ling followed instructions, sat cross-legged, and entered meditation to refine the five marks within his body.

Under the guidance of the Night Demon King, he merged with the power of the great formation, and his aura rose again, causing the space around him to collapse and the world to spin.

If barriers are the greatest reliance of legendary powerhouses, then epic overlords who control the energy of a region rely on their domains and the pressure of those domains.

"Ah!"

The Night Demon King's true form, a massive shadow, sneezed, spewing out several figures like a whale fall, before rapidly shrinking back to its initial form.

The temporary alternate dimension within its body was formed by internalizing a portion of the domain power of the Night Demon Realm.

Compared to the domain within a domain where Qinglan's inheritance is located, it also has the function of adjusting the flow of time and space inside and outside, as well as simulating and recreating battle scenes. However, because the domain is incomplete, the space is not particularly stable, but it is not something that a legendary realm can break.

"Hiss! Brother Feng's aura is comparable to Miss Leng's. He has just reached the fourteenth level limit and is about to break through to the epic level!" "Alas, although that is true, don't forget that there is the mortal tribulation below the epic level! Feng Ling should not be so greedy and reckless as to invite the mortal tribulation!"

After landing and regaining his balance, Fatty Wang looked at Feng Ling with admiration, but when he heard Xiang Qiubai beside him mention the mortal tribulation with a worried expression, his expression changed slightly.

Yes!

For a legendary powerhouse to break through to the Epic Overlord level, they not only need to accumulate a lot of resources to advance to the Ghost Spirit Body, but also need to overcome a huge watershed between the two - the Mortal Tribulation.

People like Fatty Wang and Xiang Qiubai have reached the peak of the Legendary Realm after passing the Night Ghost King's combat simulation test. The next step will be the limit of the Legendary Realm, at which point they will also face the obstacle of the Mortal Tribulation.

On the contrary, Ji Sheng, as a member of the Ghost Clan, had no pressure from the Heavenly Tribulation before the seventeenth reincarnation, unless she committed many sins and attracted the punishment of the lightning tribulation!
This can be seen from the Night Demon King's relaxed and calm demeanor when he broke through to the sixteenth level.

"Senior Night Demon, there is something I cannot understand. Please enlighten me..."

Suddenly, Feng Yuqing turned her bright eyes and felt that it was necessary to take this seriously.

After all, everyone is working directly or indirectly to revive her, so how can she slack off?

"As everyone knows, the eight epic overlords suppress the seven evil souls with their inheritances. Therefore, only one of you must be guarding Kongxuan. Judging from Sister Ningshuang's acquisition of five inheritances and four evil souls, if it wasn't the work of demons, then Kongxuan must be among the first five inheritances. In other words, the Night Ghost Realm is definitely not Kongxuan, but rather suppresses a remnant soul. Combining this with the seven souls, excluding Sister Ningshuang's four evil souls, Fengjun's one, and the demon's one, only one essence soul has never appeared from beginning to end. Therefore, we initially thought that the essence soul was in your Night Ghost Realm, or had been seized by demons. However, judging from the previous battle and conversation between the demons and you, neither seems to be the case! So, may I ask, senior, why did the essence soul disappear without a trace?"

Feng Yuqing's words were powerful and logically sound, leaving Xiang Qiubai and the others stunned. They found it hard to connect her performance with the mischievous young lady of the Yuqing Sect.

"Because, a thousand years ago, the City Lord of Qinglan was incredibly insightful and prescient. She foresaw that the Nine-Headed Serpent might one day turn against its suppressors and inheritors, so she took precautions..."

The Night Demon King spoke slowly, and everyone was quite curious, so they all pricked up their ears to wait for what he would say next.

However, the Night Demon King only kept everyone in suspense and didn't say anything more. Instead, he looked at Feng Yuqing, who had wide eyes, with a meaningful look and couldn't help but chuckle, "I have to correct you. Of the eight deputy city lords, only seven epic legacies remain. Am I still alive and well?"

"Senior, if Yuqing has said anything inappropriate, I, Feng, will apologize on her behalf!"

Feng Ling stood up and suppressed the restless energy within his body. Seeing that Leng Ning Shuang had already shielded Feng Yu Qing behind her, he stepped forward, clasped his hands, and said, "I hope that Senior will frankly tell me the whereabouts of the essence. This junior is also very curious about this!"

Every time a creature hatches, it's a new beginning...

The world is full of chaos and troubles; may the sages and saints offer you a pure land for your souls.
