Chapter 1100: Chapter 479: Beloved Linglong (Part 2)

Finally, on a certain day, Wei Immortal and Linglong defeated that powerful enemy.

But the two of them also arrived at a small world, directly obtaining the remnants of Buzhou Mountain.

Their taut heartstrings slightly lifted with the acquisition of Buzhou Mountain’s remnants, as if they saw a pathway forward, perhaps not far from resurrecting their loved ones.

This time, Wei Immortal and Linglong resolved not to concern themselves with the evils of the world.

Yet they still thought things too simple.

Even a commoner will face envy if he possesses treasure.

Though the two no longer pursued evil, evil instead came pursuing them.

For the first time, they faced countless evildoers, all coveting what they had gained.

Various schemes, various plots, various betrayals, leaving them defenseless.

Wei Immortal’s beloved Linglong Immortal was captured by a formidable enemy.

“Wei Immortal, if you want her life, hand over the remnants of Buzhou Mountain!”

The enemies once again used Wei Immortal’s weakness to threaten him.

Unfortunately, this time Wei Immortal had no power to resist at all.

“Don’t kill her, I am willing to hand over the remnants of Buzhou Mountain.”

On the opposite side, the group of evildoers laughed like weasels wishing a happy new year to chickens, and yet Wei Immortal had no choice but to open the gate.

Because that is his dear love, the last person he cherishes in this world.

Even if it costs his life, to save Linglong is worthwhile for Wei Immortal.

He did not forget the infatuated wish he made in the village school, and now it was simply time to fulfill it.

However, just as Wei Immortal wanted to hand over the remnants of Buzhou Mountain.

His beloved Linglong took the initiative and charged toward the enemy’s Spirit Sword!

A sword pierced red, through her chest.

She dumbly gazed at the direction where Wei Immortal stood, revealing a dimply smile long unseen by Wei Immortal on her rosy face.

“Wei Immortal, don’t be foolish, even if they obtain the remnants of Buzhou Mountain, they won’t let us go…”

“Don’t blame yourself, don’t feel guilty, I don’t want you to always be threatened by others using your weaknesses, the fault is theirs, not yours…”

“Live on, Linglong will wait with our family below for you to become an immortal, waiting for the day you revive us…”

“Don’t put too much pressure on yourself, even if you can’t achieve it, it’s alright, Linglong will wait for you, we will be reunited below… I love you!”

Watching his beloved rather die than see him compromise to those beasts, Wei Immortal felt his beating heart was dead, transformed into nothingness.

He was directly possessed.

In Wei Immortal’s body, spiritual power surged, and the entire remnants of Buzhou Mountain seemed to inject a terrifying power into him.

Yet, he still couldn’t rival the endless enemies on the opposite side and only snatched Linglong’s jade body.

Having retrieved his beloved, Wei Immortal was temporarily satisfied.

With the help of Buzhou Mountain’s remnants, he escaped faraway.

During the journey, although he managed to flee from pursuits at times, he also fainted several times.

Within Wei Immortal’s hollow heart, it seemed a flame refused to extinguish.

He cannot die yet, he must resurrect them!

Fortunately, Wei Immortal met Lin Chen’s family, who rescued him in his unconscious state.

At last, in the years of sorrow, Wei Immortal felt the world still offered him some light in return.

However, this also led to Lin Chen’s family’s tragic death.

Wei Immortal felt deeply responsible yet was helpless.

Subsequently, he shared life and death with Lin Chen, continually seeking revenge, leading to today.

…

Ning Qi kept repeating this segment of experience, he himself was Wei Immortal.

He watched his mother die tragically, his master die tragically, with his master’s last words echoing in his ears, his heart filled with deep sorrow.

There is no more light in the world, only darkness.

What he couldn’t forget was that final dimply smile, his beloved deceased.

“Wei Immortal, live on, Linglong will wait with our family below for you to become an immortal, waiting for the day you revive us…”

“Don’t put too much pressure on yourself, even if you can’t achieve it, it’s alright, Linglong will wait for you, we will be reunited below… I love you!”

The other experiences gradually faded away, but these three experiences continued to echo in Wei Immortal’s heart, tearing at his heart and causing uncontrollable grief.

…

Within the Sea of Realms.

Wei Immortal wielded the Tao Fruit of Seven Emotions—Power of Sorrow, immediately making the other four people present fall into shared grief, inextricable from it.

Whether it’s the observing Saint Ancestor, Sea Ancestor, or even Wei Immortal’s brother Lin Chen, all collapsed on the ground, unable to escape.

But the three were not the real target of Wei Immortal’s use of the Seven Emotions Tao Fruit; Ning Qi was.

Wei Immortal had not long successfully condensed the Tao Fruit of Seven Emotions, this was his first true practical use of it.

The Seven Emotions Tao Fruit, as its name implies, is a Tao Fruit condensed from the power of seven emotions.

However, now, Wei Immortal had only condensed the Tao Fruit of Sorrow, and his world only contained sorrow.

Wei Immortal looked toward Ning Qi across from him.

The Seven Emotions Tao Fruit either triggers another’s sorrow or lets others taste one’s own sorrow.

In truth, Wei Immortal didn’t want Ning Qi to see his memories, but there was no choice; Ning Qi’s strength forced him to choose the latter.

This was the only method he thought could defeat Ning Qi.

Yet to Wei Immortal’s surprise, Ning Qi remained standing, unlike the others who had fallen, but his expression indeed seemed caught in endless sorrow.

“It seems I have won!”

Wei Immortal strode through the void, walking toward Ning Qi.

His heart still beating like a drum, the energy from the surrounding Sea of Realms repelled far away, unable to approach here, forming a vacuum.

Wei Immortal appeared in front of Ning Qi.

“The power of Tao Fruit has infinite uses. Though I’ve just begun to condense the Tao Fruit and am not yet proficient, fear it won’t last long; once he awakens, he can still battle me.”

Suddenly, Wei Immortal reached out toward Ning Qi, ready to completely suppress him.

Only if Ning Qi acknowledged defeat would he be freed.

His large hand quick and strong, enwrapped with immortal path, grasped at Ning Qi’s neck.

Bang!

A muffled sound erupted; Wei Immortal’s hand did not grasp Ning Qi’s neck but was blocked by something mysterious.

Wei Immortal lowered his gaze to his hand, obstructed by an illusory hue emanating around Ning Qi.

“This is…”

Wei Immortal was startled, staring at the illusory hue.

With just a glance, Wei Immortal sensed the hue was incredibly complex, seemingly a protective wall formed of countless arrays and talismans.

“Immortal Path Symbol Array?”

Wei Immortal’s gray immortal eyes flashed with light.

“No, this isn’t an Immortal Path Symbol Array; to autonomously protect oneself after being struck by my Seven Emotions Tao Fruit, it’s certainly not an Immortal Path Symbol Array but a Symbol Array Tao Fruit!”

“Only equivalent power could achieve such!”

Wei Immortal’s expression shifted slightly, never expecting Ning Qi had also condensed a Tao Fruit.

“His physical strength matches mine, yet in true terms of immortal power, without possessing higher-quality golden immortal radiance, he cannot compare to me. His realm could at most be True Immortal First Grade, how could he possibly condense a Tao Fruit?”

Wei Immortal, seemingly disbelieving, continued to strike several palms, all blocked by the illusory hue surrounding Ning Qi’s body.

With each palm strike, Wei Immortal’s perception grew clearer.

“No, this still can’t be considered a Symbol Array Tao Fruit, at most only a prototype of the great path…”

He gazed at Ning Qi before him, involuntarily exclaiming, “Even a prototype of the great path is frightening, especially since he is only True Immortal First Grade, most immortals at True Immortal First Grade are still adapting to stabilizing immortal power and environment!”

Upon sensing Ning Qi’s autonomous protective force was a prototype of the great path, Wei Immortal seemed to relax a bit.

“Too bad, if given time to grow, I might truly be unable to surpass you…”

Suddenly, Wei Immortal extended a distant finger toward the Sea of Realms.

He didn’t intend to keep attacking Ning Qi’s protective prototype of the great path, as his Seven Emotions Tao Fruit was also freshly used, and its power was dwindling.

“Fortunately, the Tao Fruit’s effect not only suppresses others but also has other uses.”

Instantly, it seemed as though a towering wave arose in the distant Sea of Realms.

Countless energies from the Sea of Realms were captured by Wei Immortal, converging toward his outstretched right palm.

“When an immortal condenses a Tao Fruit, they can command part of the Sea of Realms energy, thus I will use the dirty power of the Sea of Realms to penetrate your prototype of the great path.”

In Wei Immortal’s palm, the energy from the Sea of Realms continuously condensed, the color deepening from gray-black to eventually pitch-black.

“Invade the Immortal with the Sea of Realms!”
