Chapter 792: Waiting and Reflecting

Translator: _Tat_ Editor: Rundi

The sky turned dim and clouds converged. The entire area turned dead silent.

Though the God’s Trial had ended, the sky did not brighten. On the contrary, it continued to turn darker and heavier, depressing everyone.

Especially since there were broken limbs all over the ground, the place looked infinitely deep and dark. There was not a single trace of light here.

Ling Xian’s eyes were scary red and his clothes were dyed in blood. He looked like a demon who just walked out of hell, making everyone shudder in fear. He leaned against an ancient tree, his expression was calm and there was no indication of happiness nor sadness on his face.

He was waiting.

Waiting for death.

The Demonic Immortal Bone was very heaven-defying but the price one has to pay to use it is also very heaven-defying. There was almost no way for the user to survive.

That was something Ling Xian knew very well. Therefore, he had no high hope that he can safely continue living after using it.

He didn’t hate the Demonic Immortal Bone. He was actually very thankful.

Without this piece of bone, even if Ling Xian does successfully make it through the God’s Trial, he wouldn’t have survived the original leveled cultivators’ attack. There would’ve been no way for him to save Lin Qing Yi and them.

But after he activated this piece of bone, he was able to kill original leveled cultivators the way one butcher pigs. It was a piece of cake.

There were more than 20 original leveled powerhouses!

Their capabilities together could’ve defeated an entire force and made them a leader of Yuezhou. Yet Ling Xian had killed them all, by himself. How unbelievable was this?

Anyone who learns of this news would exclaim over how heaven-defying he is.

Therefore, Ling Xian felt very lucky that he awakened his two immortal bones and he felt very fortunate that one of them was the Demonic Immortal Bone.

“Just let me wait in silence. I welcome death.”

Staring at the dark sky, the corner of Ling Xian’s lips curled up and he revealed a kind smile.

His at ease face made it seem like what was coming to get him wasn’t death, but a great event.

One has to admit that his mind was anything but ordinary.

If this was anyone else, they would be revealing much desperation and fear. Yet Ling Xian was collected and indifferent.

Ignoring all other qualities, the fact that he was able to view death like it was nothing was not something normal people can compare to.

“I cannot believe this is the end for me. I am truly unwilling to go like this.” Ling Xian gazed into the sky and silently sighed.

There was no fear on his face and there was no hopelessness. All there was, was unwillingness. He had yet to achieve his dream of climbing to the peak of the mountain. How could he be ready to die?

Sadly, the result of him dying had already been determined. Even the legendary immortal medicine wouldn’t save him now.

Therefore, Ling Xian merely grinned. Lightly and gently.

His casual behavior made other’s hearts ache.

“Oh well, so I die. I have been dominating for many years and I have seen so much of this world. Even if I do die now, it’s worth it.”

Ling Xian softly smiled. Memories of his past flashed across his mind one by one.

Back then, because he was unable to cultivate, he was heavily bullied and taunted. He only had the biographies of all those famous on the nine continent beside him and he could only dream of one day becoming a great person who others look up to.

Before the QiZhen Pavilion, he was lucky enough to encounter the Painting of the Nine Immortals and begin his cultivation journey.

While at the City of Yun Xiao, he fought against completion leveled cultivators while he was still at the foundational level. He had won and became a pioneer.

While at the Zhou Dynasty, he had slaughtered the Third Prince and tricked the emperor before leaving at ease.

While at the Immortal Palace, he fought against six Heaven’s Favorites himself. He killed three and defeated three, earning him the most powerful cultivator in Yunzhou out of the younger generation.

While at the City of Dan in Yuezhou, his alchemy skills astonished the entire city and he became known as a rare genius of the past several thousand years.

During the Competition of the Four Paths, he earned victory under all four paths and became an unprecedented character who achieved new records.

He entered the ruins and set up traps to earn the Soaring Key. Then, as a completion leveled cultivator, he defied heaven and killed those of the original level!

Next, he humiliated the Shang Qing Sect and made them lose face!

As the common enemy of Yuezhou, he was pursued by all the forces and yet using his swords, he battled aggressively and killed hundreds of completion leveled powerhouses.

Amongst the group was also six original leveled powerhouses!

Inside the Forest of Heavenly Trees, he defied heaven and turned demonic. He slew groups of cultivators and though he was about to die, his accomplishments have been glorious!

Counting all these things he achieved since he began his cultivation journey, which one of these achievements haven’t been heaven-defying?

This wasn’t even everything. If one organizes all he’s done since he was younger and publishes it as a book, then anyone who hears the story would be astounded and exclaim over how heaven-defying he’s been.

“If I think about it in detail, I have done many astonishing things in this lifetime.”

The corner of Ling Xian’s lips curled up and he laughed, “It’s worth it. I haven’t wasted my time in this world, in this life.”

As he spoke, he thought of all the people he interacted with.

Ling Hu, Mo Xing Fu, Sun Ze Hao, the Demon, Hong Chan Jun Zhu and all his other friends flashed across his mind. He grinned yet again.

In his lifetime, he made more enemies than friends. But to have acquired five of them was more than enough.

Lin Qing Yi, Bai Xiao Qi, Gong Suo Xin, and the others flashed across his mind as well. The thought of them softened his smile and made him appear warmer.

It’s already hard for one to find friends who gets them, it’s even harder for one to find significant others. Yet he has found eight women who were willing to die for him. Why wouldn’t he feel fulfilled?

Liao Cang Qiong, The Untainted, Feng Qing Ming, Fa Wu Liang, Duan Shan He, and the other Immortals also appeared in his mind. This made his smile look somewhat guiltily.

“I am sorry. I cannot fulfill your expectations.” Ling Xian softly sighed. There were some shame, embarrassment, and sadness in his expression.

“Though he has been a chill person who could calmly accept death, he still felt an unwillingness to resign before his uncompleted dreams.

Sadly, he felt his life slipping away already. The bones in his right arm were breaking apart.

“I am dying...”

Ling Xian softly sighed as he stared at the dark sky. He then mumbled, “I have broken two inhibitions out of the four that seal me. I originally thought I could do this while defying heaven, but I guess heaven is hard to defy.”

Then, he straightened his body and slammed a fist into the ground!

The power from the peak of the original level plus the tenfold boost from the Battle Immortal Bone instantly caused an earthquake!

HOMMMM!

The earth split open and space crumbled. The entire Forest of the Heavenly Trees sank into the ground.

Ling Xian sank alongside it.

Since he was going to die, he obviously was going to bury himself in case his corpse is exposed. But of course, there probably wasn’t going to be a corpse.

It is all because the price to pay for using the Demonic Immortal is complete death. Not only does one’s soul dissipate throughout the world and can never reincarnate, but even the physical body will also turn into dust.

It was because of this he asked Lin Qing Yi and them to leave. He didn’t want them to see how sad he was about to become.

After he became buried by the Forest of Heavenly Trees, his right arm began to make crackling noises.

Crack, crack, crack!

Crackling noises and excruciating pain signaled to him that death was near. It also represented that he will soon fall into an eternal sleep while carrying regrets.

“Death is near, life is about to be over. I am truly unwilling.”

Ling Xian softly sighed and his gaze turned stern, “If I get a next life, I will for sure defy heaven and create something out of this ordinary life!”

Then, he chuckled. He will soon completely disappear from this world. There won’t even be a next life.

“Oh well, though I have regrets, why fear death? I, after all, I have experienced the many faces of this world and I have seen so much.”

Ling Xian closed his sparkling eyes and as he laid in the deepest part of the earth, he appeared calm and peaceful.

His consciousness began to blur and he seemingly could see his physical body turning into dots of flesh. First his lower body, then his torso, then his right arm, then finally, his head.

Just like that, the curtains closed on his life.

This hero who was once admired by tens and thousands of people was about to disappear from this world!

At once, red rain began to fall from the sky and black lotuses blossomed all over the earth!
