At eighty, the Holy Sect's enchanting woman aided in achieving longevity.

The news that Li Tianhai, the young master of the Hehuan Sect, had been brutally tortured and killed, leaving him crippled and childless, shook the entire Hehuan Sect like a terrifying magnitude nine earthquake.

This caused the ancient and powerful sect to have no peace all night.

In his extreme anger and frustration, Sect Master Li Wuyai vomited blood and fell unconscious for several hours.

When he woke up, he was like a mad beast that had lost its mind, hysterically roaring and commanding the entire sect's strength to search for the murderer's whereabouts at all costs.

However, despite the thousands of demonic cultivators and guards inside the sect working frantically all night, they couldn't even catch a glimpse of the murderer.

The only reasonable conclusion that can be drawn from the entire sect is that this disaster was definitely the work of a high-ranking member of the sect who was proficient in core formations!

For a time, everyone in the Hehuan Sect felt insecure, and the various elder factions began to engage in fierce suspicion and infighting.

Li Wuyai's furious roar, mixed with the pressure of a Nascent Soul cultivator, echoed throughout the main peak all day long, vowing to tear the murderer to pieces and extract his soul and refine his marrow.

In a supreme land hundreds of millions of miles away from the Hehuan Sect, there is an ancient ice palace suspended above the starry sea of ​​the nine heavens.

The aloof and beautiful woman lying on the ancient jade couch trembled slightly with her long, feather-like eyelashes, and slowly opened her clear, deep, and beautiful eyes.

"You're awake."

A voice, ethereal and noble yet utterly devoid of any earthly warmth, quietly echoed within the empty palace.

Standing beside the couch was a stunningly beautiful and aloof woman dressed in snow-white robes. She was none other than the supreme master who had forcibly brought her back from the Great Wilderness of the lower realm—Fairy Xuanji.

Fairy Xuanji slowly turned around, her stunningly beautiful face cold and aloof, and she sighed imperceptibly.

"From the moment you return to the Holy Land today, put away your pointless thoughts and leave no worldly attachments behind."

Ji Ruxue's eyes were empty, and all that flashed through her mind was the stubborn figure who held her tightly in the muddy wilderness.

She didn't refute, but sadly lowered her eyes: "Master, rest assured, Ruxue understands, and is ready to follow you into seclusion at any time."

Upon hearing this, Fairy Xuanji nodded coolly: "In that case, you shall now come with me to the main hall to see the Lord of the Holy Land. I mentioned your physique to the Palace Master many years ago, and she has always had high hopes for you. I'm sure she will be delighted to see you today."

"I will follow Master's arrangements. Ruxue will proceed now."

Ji Ruxue suppressed the pain of unrequited love in her heart and respectfully bowed her head.

Fairy Xuanji shook her head slightly, stopping her, "Let me check how well your body has recovered first."

Without any hesitation, Ji Ruxue obediently extended her slender, snow-white hand.

Fairy Xuanji extended her slightly cool right hand and gently grasped Ji Ruxue's hand. Instantly, a large number of dazzling law patterns began to circulate rapidly around her body...

However, just as their palms touched and the laws were just beginning to coalesce, Fairy Xuanji's delicate body trembled violently, and the supreme immortal power she had just condensed collapsed and dissipated in an instant!

She suddenly turned around, her beautiful eyes, weathered by millennia of history, staring intently at Ji Ruxue before her...

The light in his eyes clearly showed an extreme shock, as if he had witnessed the most incredible thing since the beginning of time!

"Master? What... what happened to you?"

Fairy Xuanji's sudden loss of composure startled Ji Ruxue, who asked in a somewhat panicked and timid voice.

"Impossible... This is absolutely impossible, how could this happen!!"

Fairy Xuanji seemed to have lost her soul, muttering to herself in a daze.

Her other hand suddenly reached out and gripped Ji Ruxue's right wrist tightly, striking her pulse.

As the vital energy within her body transformed into streams of light and surged into Ji Ruxue's body once more, Fairy Xuanji's beautiful eyes widened in disbelief, and her entire body trembled more and more violently.

His face was filled with indescribable shock and madness!

She grabbed Ji Ruxue's wrist, her emotions too intense, and this supreme being of a realm couldn't even utter a complete sentence at this moment!

Seeing her master's almost crazed state, Ji Ruxue's panic intensified: "Master... what... what happened?"

"Like snow!"

Fairy Xuanji took a deep breath, feeling her Dao heart pounding wildly, unable to calm down.

She usually cultivates the Supreme Method of Forgetting Emotions, and her state of mind is already like a stagnant pool, so calm that even the destruction of stars cannot stir up the slightest ripple.

She couldn't remember the last time she'd lost control of her emotions like this: "Tell me honestly, what incredible adventure did you encounter in that lowly lower realm of the Great Wilderness?! Did you meet the remnant soul of a fallen ancient god, or did you consume some kind of world-altering elixir of creation?!"

"I……"

Ji Ruxue was speechless for a moment, completely at a loss for words.

"I thought it was a miracle that I could preserve your cultivation after you suffered a fatal blow from that Golden Core cultivator. But just now, during my investigation, I discovered that your Crimson Phoenix Heavenly Demon Art has bypassed its bottleneck and reached the unprecedented Great Completion realm overnight! Your current cultivation speed is twice as fast as the Palace Master's, and more than five times faster than those self-proclaimed geniuses of the Holy Land! This means that breaking through any divine barrier in the future will be as easy as drinking water for you, and you will never encounter any bottlenecks for the rest of your life!"

"The perfect Crimson Phoenix Celestial Body, where the cultivation technique has been fully mastered, is known as the 'Heavenly Spirit Divine Vein' in the records of ancient mythology! That is a supreme divine vein that only the Primordial True God is worthy of possessing! Our entire starry sky has never seen anything like snow since Ragnarok... What exactly did you experience in that desolate lower realm?!"

Despite her master's almost frantic questioning, Ji Ruxue's beautiful face showed no trace of joy or pride as a peerless genius.

Instead, an uncontrollable sadness and bitterness instantly swept over her entire heart.

She subconsciously raised her trembling hand and gently stroked her flat, cool abdomen.

As a peerless divine body that has mastered the cultivation technique, at this moment she closed her eyes and could clearly see within the Life Dao Palace of her own life origin that there was a faint trace of a supreme immortal law that did not belong to her.

At that moment, she finally understood completely.

During those countless nights of tender entanglement with Chen Changsheng, a supreme immortal seed, inheriting the Pure Yang Overlord Body and her Red Phoenix Demon Blood, had already been quietly gestating within her body!

Yesterday, she didn't hesitate to fly in front of Chen Changsheng and take the fatal blow from that Golden Core assassin for him.

Her original physical body and fragile soul should have been torn apart and annihilated in that instant, resulting in her death and the dissipation of her spiritual essence.

But at the very moment she was about to perish, the supreme immortal seed gestating in her womb sensed the destruction of its mother.

The celestial embryo, which had not yet developed sentience, made a choice in the darkness.

It deliberately shattered its own origin, transforming into a sky full of celestial radiance, resolutely choosing to lose its celestial seed and nourish its mother!

It was that celestial origin that transcended the boundaries of all heavens.

At the critical moment, it transformed into the gentlest torrent of spiritual energy in the world, not only piecing together and repairing her critically injured body and shattered soul, but also breaking through all the fundamental barriers within her body, propelling her Red Phoenix Heavenly Demon Art to its peak!

All these miracles were not due to any heaven-defying divine pills or the inheritance of any powerful figures.

Those were her own flesh and blood, who sacrificed their lives and immortal essence to bring about her rebirth in the face of utter despair!

"Eternal life...our child..."

Two lines of clear tears rolled down Ji Ruxue's pale, incomparably beautiful face, and welled up uncontrollably.

My love, wait for me... I will definitely find a way to return to your side!
