One day, two days …
One year, ten years …
Mo Wuji continued to walk like this. As he walked, he forgot about hunger and time. After a thousand years, he was already so skinny that he looked like a bag of bones. However, he still continued to walk forward.
This Mortal Planet was vast but sparsely populated. The further he walked, the more desolate it became. He passed through countless forests, rivers and mountains.
Although his dao foundations were still broken and his meridians had yet to recover, there seemed to be a dao aura around his body.
This dao aura contained a supreme aura. For many years, it didn't matter if it was a wild beast or an insect … as long as it appeared within 50 miles of Mo Wuji, it would flee.
…
In the depths of the Resting Land of Gods, Xia Ruoyin calmly kept the Reincarnation Mirror. She lifted her head to look at the vast and boundless void.
With the help of the Reincarnation Mirror, she finally stepped into the Quasi-Sage Level 7 after 10,000 years. As long as she reached Quasi-Sage Level 7, she would be able to borrow the red lotus to enter the Sage Nun Pool. This was her secret.
It was also because of this that she couldn't allow the Sage Nun to enter the Resting Land of Gods. As long as the Sage Nun entered the Resting Land of Gods, the Sage Nun would discover that she could borrow the red lotus to return to the Sage Nun Pool.
Now that the Sage Nun was killed outside the Resting Land of Gods, the red lotus completely belonged to her, Xia Ruoyin.
Compared to many Sages who cultivated for tens of thousands of years, she used the Reincarnation Mirror to advance from an ordinary person to Quasi-Sage Level 7 in less than 30,000 years. This was her pride.
Scenes of the past flashed through her mind. There were countless people and events that she would never remember. She even forgot about the Xia Clan that she was born in.
She would never be able to forget the back of the only person who was focused on the laboratory.
She would never be able to forget that person's every frown and smile. She would never be able to forget that when she stabbed her dagger into his back, he turned to look at her in confusion. Why?
Yes, how could she not know that she needed the formula? All she had to do was ask. However, he had to die.
She didn't want to beg him for the formula. Or rather, she truly didn't want to owe him any more. Perhaps, at that time, she still had a bottom line …
Xia Ruoyin let out a clear cry. She wanted to get rid of this final thought that was interfering with her. Otherwise, this person would be the only obstacle to her entering the Saint State.
After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Xia Ruoyin's expression became even colder. She'd already forced herself to sever that trace of thought that was disturbing her.
From now on, she, Xia Ruoyin, would become the ruler of the entire universe.
She believed that she was the only person in the universe who possessed 101 spirit channels and 101 meridians. She even opened up her second sea of consciousness.
She had the elemental storage channel and had things that even Sages didn't have.
Now that she had killed the green-robed Sage Nun and obtained the Red Lotus of Fortune, she only needed to head to the Sage Nun Pool to perfect her Red Lotus magic treasure. Then, she would become one with the Red Lotus and become a true Sage.
She grabbed the red lotus and landed on it with one step. Then, she performed a series of hand seals. In just a dozen breaths of time, the red lotus disappeared without a trace in a curtain of red light.
In less than half an incense's time, a green-robed woman landed on the spot where the red lotus disappeared. She lifted her head to look at the red lotus that had already disappeared. She snorted coldly and suddenly lifted her hand to grab at the dao ripples of the Laws of Dao on her body.
These dao ripples of the Laws of Dao soon formed an illusory red lotus. The illusory red lotus became increasingly clear and its dao ripples became increasingly majestic.
After another half an incense's time, the illusory red lotus suddenly swept up the green-robed woman and disappeared.
…
The moment the red lotus landed, the surrounding pure and clear dao ripples of the red lotus could be felt. Xia Ruoyin's heart was filled with wild joy. She knew that she had succeeded. She borrowed the power of the red lotus to return to the Sage Nun Pool from the Resting Land of Gods.
As long as she returned to the Sage Nun Pool, she would only need a thousand years at most to fuse with the red lotus and step into the Sage Dao.
Once she reached the Sage Dao, she, Xia Ruoyin, would also be a supreme expert of the universe. She would be the Sage of the universe and everyone else would be ants in her eyes.
"Boom!" Xia Ruoyin was still in the midst of her excitement. She hadn't even started to gain insights into the red lotus dao ripples of the Sage Nun Pool when another explosion occurred in the middle of the Sage Nun Pool.
Xia Ruoyin was shocked. After she leaped out of the red lotus, she saw a person that she didn't even dare to believe would appear. Why would the green-robed Sage Nun that she killed personally appear here? Could the Sage Nun also have a clone? However, she had never heard of it before. She had followed the Sage Nun for many years and she was sure that the Sage Nun didn't have a clone.
"You actually didn't die?" Xia Ruoyin stared at the Sage Nun in shock. It was one thing that the Sage Nun didn't die, but she was actually able to return to the Sage Nun Pool? What was going on?
The Sage Nun didn't bother about Xia Ruoyin. Before Xia Ruoyin could finish her words, the red lotus directly disappeared from beneath Xia Ruoyin's feet. It was as though it had melted into the Sage Nun Pool. The disappearance of the red lotus told Xia Ruoyin that this was the Sage Nun's territory.
Sensing that the Sage Nun's aura was getting stronger and stronger, Xia Ruoyin immediately knew that something was wrong. She did not hesitate to take out her Shining Cloud Light and send it towards the Sage Nun. At the same time, the Reincarnation Mirror also turned into a reincarnation dao light. It contained a powerful aura that seemed as though it wanted to tear the entire Sage Nun Pool into pieces as it shot towards the Sage Nun.
"Boom!" The dao ripples exploded. A red ripple suddenly appeared between the Sage Nun and Xia Ruoyin. This red ripple was like a barrier between realms. It blocked Xia Ruoyin's attack.
Xia Ruoyin's heart sank. She knew that she had to get rid of the Sage Nun as soon as possible. Otherwise, she would be finished.
She spat out a mouthful of vital blood. The reincarnation mirror light within the Reincarnation Mirror exploded with dazzling light. Boundless reincarnation dao ripples exploded. The barrier between Xia Ruoyin and the Sage Nun was directly torn apart by the Reincarnation Mirror. The reincarnation mirror light then shot towards the Sage Nun with an even more powerful aura.
At this moment, Xia Ruoyin came to an understanding. The Sage Nun should have been hiding beside her. She should have been waiting for her to use the red lotus to return to the Sage Nun Pool from the Resting Land of Gods.
The moment she returned to the Sage Nun Pool, the Sage Nun would be able to use the red lotus dao ripples that Xia Ruoyin had left behind to borrow the soul of the red lotus to return to the Reincarnation Pool. Moreover, the soul of the red lotus was the Sage Nun herself. It would naturally be easy for her to do this.
Even though she was filled with regret, Xia Ruoyin knew that this wasn't the time.
After the reincarnation dao light from the Reincarnation Mirror tore apart the barrier of the Sage Nun Pool, it swept up a summoning reincarnation dao light towards the Sage Nun.
The red lotus was the Sage Nun's original body. Now that she had obtained the red lotus from the Sage Nun Pool. The Sage Nun's body soon condensed completely. Her cultivation directly rose to the late Quasi-Sage Stage. After Xia Ruoyin's reincarnation dao light swept over, she let out a clear shout. The red lotus, which had originally disappeared, suddenly reappeared.
The red lotus smashed against Xia Ruoyin's Reincarnation Mirror, creating a huge whirlpool in the middle of the Sage Nun Pool.
At this moment, how could Xia Ruoyin dare to stay any longer? She didn't even have the time to retract her Reincarnation Mirror. She charged into that whirlpool and disappeared in the blink of an eye. She knew that if she didn't leave now, she wouldn't be able to leave anymore.
She guessed that a strand of the Sage Nun's soul should have escaped. Even so, someone must have helped the Sage Nun. If no one helped the Sage Nun, the green-robed Sage Nun definitely wouldn't be able to condense such a condensed primordial spirit in such a short period of time. Moreover, she could even borrow the dao ripples of the red lotus to return to the Sage Nun Pool.
Because she was too carried away, she lost the best opportunity to become a Sage. Not only that, she even lost her Reincarnation Mirror.
The moment she entered the black whirlpool, Xia Ruoyin knew that she couldn't control herself anymore. This powerful whirlpool tore apart tens of her meridians. Thereafter, it brought her through one world after another, disappearing into the depths of the vast and boundless universe.
The green-robed Sage Nun stared at this huge black whirlpool in silence. She didn't chase after Xia Ruoyin. In reality, she had been cultivating in the Sage Nun Pool for such a long time. However, she didn't know that she could borrow the red lotus to teleport to the Sage Nun Pool from the Resting Land of Gods. She also didn't know that there was a transfer whirlpool beneath the Sage Nun Pool.
From the looks of it, this wasn't a place she could stay for long.
…
At the instant Xia Ruoyin was sent into the whirlpool and her meridians were torn apart, Mo Wuji suddenly stopped.
He lifted his head to look at the sky. An extremely ordinary dao ripple appeared around his body.
At the same time, his vitality channel recovered, his elemental storage channel recovered, his spirit storage channel recovered …
His meridians, dao foundations and even his dantian were restored. The energy of the Grand Dao around him got weaker and weaker. A sense of connection between mortals and the universe started to become clearer.
After an unknown period of time, the weakening dao ripple around Mo Wuji disappeared without a trace. At this moment, he was just an ordinary commoner.
So this was the Sage Stage. Mo Wuji's heart became increasingly calm. At the instant his injuries healed, he stepped into the Sage Stage.
He looked calmly at the sky. His spiritual will pierced through the boundless void and boundless world domains.
