In a corner of the deep abyss, in front of a short grave, the dirt rolled and a deathly white hand squeezed out.
This was an old man's hand. His old skin was wrinkled and there was no flesh. His skin was tightly attached to his bones like a corpse.
"I am really going to die." The old man climbed out from the dirt. His body was wet and he was in a bad state. He knew that he was going to die.
There was no medicine that could save him and no one could heal him.
"My soul and my body have been shattered. I don't have much time left." The hope in his eyes was extinguished. He knew that he was about to die.
"I am going to die but I can't die in my home. I can't return to my roots. What a pity." The old man gave a tragic smile and looked on in despair. Time seemed to be rewinding and he returned to the small sect that he lived in for 20 years when he was young.
A peach tree bloomed and the fragrance of flowers spread about. Under the peach blossoms was a beautiful person wearing a red dress. She smiled at him like a flower.
This was the mole in his heart and also the white moonlight in front of his window.
"I left the sect when I was 20 and thought that it was a small place. I wanted to see the world but after this life, the place I wanted to return to was still the sect that I thought was a small place." The old man gave a sad smile. His heart was dripping blood. What he had been searching for his entire life, he realized that he had it from the start.
Over the long years, he discarded these things one by one and became what he was now.
"If I was given another chance, I definitely wouldn't have entered this abyss, and I wouldn't have participated in this grand party. In the end, I lost myself." The old man's eyes were filled with regret. His breathing gradually became lighter, and eventually, he stopped breathing.
"Peach Blossom Mountain …" On his deathbed, the old man's longing for his home won over his hatred.
Ka ka ka!
In the air, a red watch landed on the old man's body.
But the old man was already dead.
He tried his best to climb out and used up his last bit of strength. His injuries exploded out and he couldn't control himself. He died.
The time when the red watch landed was half a beat too slow.
This stunned the watch. After sensing it, it realized that the host was really dead and it wanted to leave.
Kacha!
However, at this time, a void figure appeared, floating out from a pisces jade pendant. It was an artifact spirit, crushing the pocket watch.
"I will help you complete your last wish." This Artifact Spirit was a woman, a woman as black as ink, as beautiful as the mountains and rivers, like the spring breeze. She was extremely beautiful, and her temperament was outstanding. She carried the graceful and graceful demeanor of Jiangnan.
She appeared on her own and crushed the blood-red pocket watch. This could be considered as fulfilling a wish of her deceased master.
The watch shattered and the girl returned to the Pisces Jade Pendant. The old man's corpse disappeared and entered the Bank of the Universe.
…
Within the Bank of the Universe, Li Xiandao looked at the old man and blinked.
A corpse!
This is the new customer?
Li Xiandao thought that it was fake and that it was a prank, but when Seven nodded her head solemnly, he knew that it wasn't fake.
The new guest was really a corpse.
Li Xiandao looked at the corpse and frowned, "Since the guest is dead, then you shouldn't have brought him in. What a waste of a watch. It has no value at all."
"Someone shattered the watch." Seven said innocently.
"He is already dead. Did he crush it before he died?" Li Xiandao was really confused and looked closely at the old man.
He was so skinny that he didn't look like a human. If one didn't look closely, one wouldn't have noticed that this person was a Destiny Realm expert.
"I crushed it." A soft voice rang out. A few streaks of green smoke flew out from the pendant and turned into a girl.
A girl with the aura of Jiangnan.
"You are the artifact spirit?" Li Xiandao's brow rose up. He looked at the pendant. It was of decent quality and was a Celestial Artifact.
"Right, I am the artifact spirit of the pendant. This is my Master and he is dead. I used up the last bit of energy I accumulated to appear." The artifact spirit nodded her head.
Li Xiandao was enlightened. This guest should have been her Master but this person didn't wait for the watch to appear and died first, which resulted in such a scene.
What should he do?
Li Xiandao injected some true qi into the artifact spirit to ensure that she wouldn't disappear due to a lack of spiritual energy. He then asked, "Since you shattered the watch, then you are a guest of the Bank of the Universe. May I ask what you would like to trade?"
The artifact spirit pointed and said, "Send my Master to his old home and bury him beneath Peach Blossom Mountain."
"Why is it so simple?" Li Xiandao asked curiously.
"Right, this was his biggest regret, more than his hatred. So, he would rather not take revenge and return to his roots." The artifact spirit nodded her head.
"I understand. Since that is the case, then what price can you pay?" Li Xiandao asked.
"Me." The artifact spirit pointed at herself. Her petite body gave off a different kind of charm.
Shua!
Li Xiandao felt a gaze land on his body.
Li Xiandao coughed, "Is it your main body, this pendant?"
"Right, this is my main body and it is a Celestial Artifact. It protects the body really well and can adjust the various cultivation functions of the human body. There are many benefits to wearing it." The artifact spirit nodded her head.
"Your main body is proportional to your request. I can send your Master back to his roots but I have some questions to answer." Li Xiandao squatted down and picked up the pendant before passing it to Seven.
Seven smiled. She was really elegant and reserved.
"What do you want to ask?" The artifact spirit looked at Li Xiandao curiously.
"Your Master has always lived in the deep abyss?" Li Xiandao asked.
He used the pendant to sense it. This Master's cultivation was really high and he was at least at stage eight. In Heaven Sky, he was an expert.
But he died. He died a tragic death like he crawled out from the soil.
In truth, he really crawled out from his grave.
"My Master left home when he was 20 and entered the deep abyss three years later. He was unable to leave and slowly rose up here. 10,000 years passed and he reached stage eight. But because of an accident, he died here." The artifact spirit said regretfully.
"Because of what accident?" Li Xiandao's eyes lit up. He wanted to understand more about the deep abyss.
This person had lived in the deep abyss for so long and definitely knew this place like the back of his hand. As the pendant was a celestial artifact that he carried with him, he definitely knew many things that Li Xiandao didn't.
"Because the four kings wanted to become celestials in the human world, so they were working hard to dig up ancient treasures." The artifact spirit said.
"Become a celestial in the human world!" Li Xiandao looked at her in shock. He didn't expect such a situation to happen.
