The Eastern King had no doubt whatsoever. He knew better than the Western Queen Mother that the woman in purple was not just someone with a little background, but someone with a very significant background.
Fortunately, they survived this ordeal without serious injury, which means that Heaven did not intend to take their lives.
Having said all that, Dong Wanggong didn't dare ask any more questions, nor did he express his own feelings.
Once this is over, just pretend it never happened.
What Dongwanggong worried about most were his two daughters. Unfortunately, even as immortals, they had many things beyond their control.
All they could do was try their best to protect those who needed protection.
Lin Yi was somewhat surprised to find that the Queen Mother of the West had not revealed the truth, but he ultimately put down the demon-slaying sword.
The best-case scenario he never imagined has arrived.
Once he takes action, regardless of the final outcome, it won't be a good result.
Not taking any action would naturally be a win-win situation for everyone.
Of course, it's also possible that the Queen Mother of the West discovered his spying and kept it a secret for the time being to save her life.
But thinking about how genuinely she had acted before, and the hints she left behind, Lin Yi decided to trust her one more time.
The journey of the Eastern King and the Western Queen Mother was relatively uneventful, and they soon arrived at the Outer Heaven.
Lin Yi had already sent his clone out to dig out immortal bones when they left.
Lingling and Lingyi were both puzzled, wondering what was going on with Lin Yi, since they had just witnessed the confrontation between Lin Yi and the Queen Mother of the West.
But later everyone got a bit emotional, and no one paid attention to Lin Yi anymore. No one expected him to reappear now.
After all this digging, the only target should be the immortal bones.
"what are you doing?"
"I'll dig out immortal bones for you."
Knowing that he might be watched by the Great Celestial Venerable, Lin Yi would not reveal his identity. However, seeing that Hanhan Lingyi had no intention of digging out the immortal bones, he had no choice but to do it himself.
"We just promised them we wouldn't steal."
"Can taking your own bones be called stealing?"
Lin Yi also wanted to verify whether the Queen Mother of the West's hint was a real hint or whether he had misunderstood it.
If one can take the immortal bone and use it normally, then it means that the Queen Mother of the West is credible.
Zero One and Zero Zero were unaware of his plans, but they were rendered speechless by his logic.
"But...won't this anger the Great Celestial Venerable?"
Lingyi was still a little worried, fearing that taking things without asking would bring punishment.
Lin Yi said calmly, "You have already refused the summons from the Immortal Realm, so aren't you standing on the side of the mortal world?"
"Since you're already planning a rebellion, why are you afraid of angering them?"
Zero One: "..."
That makes sense!
Seeing her bewildered expression, Lin Yi also wanted to complain.
What a silly beauty!
Of course, this can't be blamed on Zero One. She doesn't have her previous memories, and after waking up, she's been constantly fighting and killing, so it's normal for her to be a little slow.
After Lin Yi's hard work, a pit a hundred meters deep was dug out in no time, containing two platinum coffins.
The coffins were made of gold, Lin Yi could confirm. Both coffins were magnificent and were carved with very intricate runes.
After careful examination, Lin Yi deduced that these were likely runes for sealing and preservation.
However, nothing can withstand the test of time, and as the years passed, the power of the runes gradually weakened.
The rich, moist spring water is the source of the abundant spiritual springs in this place.
The reason for using a golden coffin to bury the bones is that gold generates water, which can nourish the bones as much as possible. This shows that the person who buried the bones must have had good intentions towards Zero One and Zero Zero.
As Lin Yi unearthed the immortal bone, the resonance between Zero One and Zero Zero grew stronger and stronger.
When it affects the body, it causes wave after wave of excruciating pain.
This pain came from nowhere; it seemed to be a headache, or a heartache, or perhaps pain all over the body, causing them to lose their senses and become dazed, with only the pain remaining clear.
In fact, they had already resonated with the immortal bones; they had experienced pain when they came to Chang'an before.
It was a voice that kept saying things I couldn't understand, which was both annoying and irritating.
Now, that feeling is even clearer.
They all heard it; someone was speaking, and the speaker was themselves.
"Once you've made this choice, there's no turning back. Aren't you afraid?"
"Not afraid."
“It’s very painful to have your bones removed. They’ll break all the bones in your body, then cut you open and scrape away the spirit from your bones. Can you bear it?”
"I can handle it."
"Let's begin then..."
Zero One seemed to see herself being tortured. She had heard that her immortal bones had been removed, and thought it was something that could be done with a simple spell, but she did not expect the process to be so complicated.
She heard it, those cries of agony.
Does it hurt?
"pain."
Do you want to regret it?
"Don't stop..."
Zero Zero saw it too.
Stimulated by these sounds, fragments of her memory also began to resurface.
That year, my sister voluntarily removed her immortal bones in order to get married.
She secretly went to see it, and the scene from that day was deeply etched in her mind.
The executioner was Jin Ling, the most trusted maidservant of the Queen Mother of the West, who was a professional bone-removing specialist.
Those in the celestial realm who violated the heavenly rules and had their immortal bones removed were all executed by her.
Jin Ling has been gentle enough to her own people.
However, removing the immortal bones is not a simple task.
Immortals and gods who can cultivate immortal bones are exceptionally powerful, possessing strong self-healing abilities.
Therefore, during execution, bones are broken to prevent them from healing on their own.
During bone scraping, the person being punished must remain conscious, otherwise the divine spiritual energy cannot be scraped away.
Everyone who has had their immortal bones removed watches helplessly as they leave. This is the cruelest punishment in the immortal realm, and Zero Zero witnessed Zero One endure it.
At that time, she never imagined that she would have to endure such hardship one day.
Lin Yi also discovered the changes that had happened to Lingling and Lingyi.
As they prepared to open the coffin, exceptionally strong ripples erupted from their bodies, creating a powerful resonance with something within the coffin.
From Lin Yi's perspective, it was as if two instruments were resonating.
The frequency of the oscillations gradually became consistent, and the golden coffin gradually cracked under the impact of this frequency.
Lin Yi noticed Lingyi's pain and quickly used his Heavenly Eye to observe them. He then discovered that their pain was because they had spontaneously attracted his immortal bones, and they inevitably had to endure pain during the fusion process.
The pain of having bone removed is excruciating, but the pain of having bone melted is even greater.
Lin Yi didn't want to interrupt them, so he could only watch silently.
The ripples of their resonance seemed clearly visible in Lin Yi's eyes as well.
Initially, there were only three locations: Zero One and two golden coffins.
As the frequencies converged, the ripples belonging to zero and one spread out and split into two.
Not only did the ripples spread, but Zero One also appeared as a double image in Lin Yi's eyes.
It was as if another soul was being constantly pushed out under this fluctuation.
The key point is that the expressions of the double images are different. Gradually, the double image changes from one to three, from three to six, and eventually there are more and more, with a total of fourteen double images appearing.
These overlapping images merged together, and Lin Yi vaguely sensed that this was a transformation.
really.
With an exceptionally strong impact, Zero-One cracked open.
Two women who looked exactly alike but had slightly different expressions appeared before Lin Yi. Then, two pairs of similar but different ripples appeared.
They each resonated with their corresponding immortal bones. Clearly, under the resonance between the immortal bones and their true selves, Zero Zero and Zero One became two individuals again.
The golden coffin shattered completely, and two bottles of blue liquid flew out of the coffin, heading towards Zero Zero and Zero One respectively.
The so-called "immortal bones" are not actually bones, but rather bone marrow and the immortal essence fused within it.
Both sisters belong to the water element and have very similar Daoist auras, with only minor differences.
Now, they have merged into each other's bodies. Lin Yi has activated his bone-penetrating vision and can clearly see that the two, who were originally ordinary bones, have gradually acquired immortal bones, and their bodies have undergone a qualitative change.
When they had completely transformed, one less person appeared on the page of the Demon-Slaying Record, while one more appeared on the golden page.
