The reason why heroes were heroes, was because they only lived in legends. The girl sacrificed her life to seal the Devil, so everyone worshipped her, respected her, and treated her as their savior. Because she was already dead, and the dead could not compete with the living. No matter how high her reputation was, there was no threat.
However, if she were to live, this situation would no longer exist. If her reputation was too high, it would definitely affect the other deity sects, and pose a threat to the people in their positions. On the surface, the various sects rejoiced over her revival, however, the selfish hearts of the people were faintly suspicious. If she were to live, then wouldn't there be a possibility for the Devil to revive as well?
The various sects feared the Devil. After all, the battle back then had greatly damaged the vitality of a large number of deity sects, and it was impossible for them to recover within ten thousand years. If the Devil were to make a comeback, the world would definitely not be able to withstand a single blow.
They were worried and afraid. These emotions grew deeper and deeper, and they were filled with fear all day long. They even attributed the reason for this fear to the resurrected girl, Ying Luo. Why did she have to live? Wasn't it great to seal the Devil forever? Since she had already chosen death, why did she have to go back on her words and come back to life? As time passed, who would still remember that she had once saved the world? They all wished that she could return to those seals, so that they could stop the Devil from reviving.
Hence, in order to save the world, in order to stop the Devil from reviving, the various sects joined hands, and before the girl could even feel her new life, they killed her in the name of justice. Then, they devoured and refined her soul, splitting her soul into five, and once again placed them on five mystic artifacts. When they were completely uncertain if the Devil would revive, they killed the former savior of the world.
The girl died. She died in the hands of the people she used her life to protect.
Even Zhu Yao could feel the towering anger, and the stifling feeling in her heart was unbearable. For the girl, and for those foolish practitioners. She even wanted to rush forward and stop them. However, she could do nothing, and could only watch as the girl was killed. She watched as her soul was forcefully torn apart by the formation, and imprisoned on those five mystic artifacts.
The scene in front of her changed, and she once again returned to the field of flowers.
That hellish girl was still standing in the middle of the flowers, and her entire body was covered in blood red. However, Zhu Yao suddenly no longer felt afraid, because this was how the girl looked before she died. And the bloody scar on her face, was the wound where her soul was sliced open.
"Why?" She asked, tears of blood flowing from her eyes. "I have never betrayed this world in the slightest, but why does this world treat me like this?"
Zhu Yao was unable to answer.
The blood on the girl's clothes became redder and redder, and she seemed to have fallen into endless despair. Suddenly, the blood turned into streams of black gas that enveloped her whole body like smoke.
Resentment!
So this was the cause of resentment. Being treated like this by the world, how could she not hate, how could she not resent?
Zhu Yao felt as though she was about to be drowned by the enormous sorrow and desolation, causing thoughts of despair to arise in her. It was as though everything in this world had already gone far away, and she felt as though she had fallen into an icehouse. Even her heart had frozen, and she was no longer able to transcend. Even death had become an extravagant hope, and the thought of giving up on everything had arisen for no reason.
Ding! A clear and crisp sound suddenly rang in his ears.
The scene in front of him changed, and suddenly the world was filled with a familiar darkness. A QQ chat window popped up, and a few lines of text appeared on it.
Realmspirit: Girl, how are you?
Realmspirit: Wake up, girl!
Realmspirit: Don't scare me. Come back to your senses.
Realmspirit: Young girl!
Realmspirit: Zhu Yao!
Realmspirit: Princess Flattop!
Realmspirit: Airport!
"…" The corner of Zhu Yao's lips twitched, and instantly, her face darkened. "You're the airport, your entire house is an airport."
Realmspirit: (⊙ _ ⊙)
Realmspirit: Yo, brave girl, let's create a miracle together!
"Create your sister!" Zhu Yao habitually retorted. Taking a deep breath, that feeling of despair earlier had already receded like the tide, and could no longer be found. Her emotions earlier were most likely affected by the resentment. She turned to look at her surroundings. "Did I die again?"
Realmspirit: No, girl! At the very most, you're just having an out-of-body experience.
"Out-of-body experience?" Zhu Yao was startled. "Then what about my body?"
Realmspirit: Your body has already been controlled by resentment, and is currently in a state of deep slumber.
"You're saying I can still return?" That was her original avatar, she had feelings for it!
Realmspirit was silent, and only after a while did he type out a line of words.
Realmspirit: … Unless the resentment in your body is cleared. Otherwise, even if you return, you will still be devoured by resentment.
"Oh …" Zhu Yao did not expect that the situation would be so severe.
Realmspirit: Hoho, young girl, this mission seems to be too difficult. It's my mistake in arranging the work. Why don't we change to a more relaxing bug?
Could bugs be separated into relaxed and enjoyable ones? Zhu Yao gave a scornful look.
"Forget it. Since I've already begun to fix it, then I'll just fix it till the end!"
Realmspirit: Eh?
He seemed to have paused for a moment.
Realmspirit: Young girl, do you still want to continue dealing with resentment? Friend, do you need to top up your IQ? Do you need a dozen? Recharge once every five times, and you'll receive the money immediately?
"Scram!" Zhu Yao rolled her eyes at him. "I feel that I have most likely found a way to eliminate resentment."
Realmspirit: (
⊙
⊙
(Earlier, she was clearly being tortured by resentment, so why did she suddenly say that she found a way? Young girl's brain couldn't have been burnt by resentment, right?)
"Hey, if you're going to retort, can you not type it out at the same time!?" Do you think I won't be able to see it just by adding a bracket? Ugh!
Realmspirit: Don't mind these details! Young girl, are you sure you want to continue with this bug?
"That's right. Regarding the specific method to eliminate resentment, I'm not sure yet. I need to personally verify it. "Zhu Yao solemnly said." And I need your help. "
Realmspirit: Oh … Come, young girl. Don't pity me just because I'm a delicate flower. Use me all you want!
"…" Will you die if you don't act stupid? Zhu Yao sighed. Ignoring his shameless words, she analyzed. "Usually, in a game, if you want to fix a bug, you will have to patch it on top of the original foundation. However, if you encounter a bug that cannot be fixed, which is a fatal bug, then there's only one way. If you want to save it, then there's only one way, and that's to delete and reprogram it. Back then, when resentment entered my divine sense, I saw the source of resentment. I must say, she indeed has the qualifications to be resentful. And this resentment, is basically impossible to eliminate. If you want to solve it, you have to start from the source. That's why I want to go to that world and find that girl. "
Realmspirit did not reply, as though he was considering her suggestion. After a long while, the next line of words appeared.
Realmspirit: You want to eliminate her resentment, and let go of her obsession towards the world.
"You can put it that way."
Realmspirit: But although her soul is still in the world, resentment has long left her soul body. In the Underworld, it might not be affected by her soul.
"I have to give it a try."
Realmspirit: … Alright, I believe you. Go, Pikachu!
"…" Pikachu, your sister! The corner of Zhu Yao's lips twitched. She suddenly recalled something. "Oh right, just what's wrong with my master? Why does he often turn into a child? Is it because he's affected by resentment as well? "
Realmspirit: That's not it, young girl. There's always a price to pay for going against the Heavenly Dao.
"What do you mean?" Speak human language.
Realmspirit: He forcefully descended into the Lower Realm with the power of a Higher Deity, and then forcefully stayed in the Lower Realm. Naturally, the Heavenly Dao will not tolerate it.
"You're saying that the reason why he fainted is because he stayed in the Lower Realm?" Zhu Yao's heart tightened, and she was instantly filled with guilt. If not for her, why would her master …
Realmspirit: Haah, young girl! This is all because of … love. As expected, men and women in love are all blind!
"Scram!" Zhu Yao glared at him, and her heart was instantly filled with anxiety. "Is there any way to solve this problem … No! This daddy wants to return. "
Realmspirit: Don't be anxious, young girl.
"How can I not be anxious?" That was her man.
Realmspirit: Kuh … I'm saying, the problem has already been solved.
Zhu Yao was startled. "What do you mean?"
The scene flashed, and suddenly, a video interface appeared. The scene displayed was exactly the scene after she fainted. Her master, who was dressed in white, was currently sitting next to her with a cold expression. Wang Xuzhi was standing at the side. As though he had just woken up, his expression was not very good. As for Zi Mo …
Zi Mo was currently stuck in the wall. Looking at the angle and depth of where he was stuck, it was definitely her master who filmed him.
Zhu Yao: "…"
"How did my master wake up?"
Realmspirit: Do you remember the pearl that the River of Forgetfulness gave you? That was the purest source of water, the River of Forgetfulness, that had yet to come into contact with any soul. It was able to purify all things, so as long as he carried it by his side, the Heavenly Dao would recognize his existence, and naturally, he would wake up.
As expected, that pearl was for her master to use. Zhu Yao turned to look at her own master, and suddenly, she felt a little uncomfortable. Every single time, he would leave without saying goodbye. She was really mentally tired as well. However, if she did not go, who knew which world Realmspirit would reincarnate her into. She might as well eliminate her resentment, and then return to her original avatar.
"Can I send him a message?"
Realmspirit: Young girl, I'm not a postman!
No sense of loyalty!
"Forget it, send me to the mission."
Realmspirit: Alright, young girl!
"This time, can you give me a more reliable avatar? Don't be as weak as trash, alright?"
Realmspirit: No problem, young girl! A proper young girl.
"Let's go."
Realmspirit: Alright, young girl! In order to increase the success rate, I have decided to make some slight adjustments to the details. Good luck, young girl.
Wait a minute, what adjustments did you make, hey?
The scene flashed, and a familiar loading bar flashed past at light speed. In the next second, Zhu Yao sank into unconsciousness.
She instantly had a premonition that she was about to be screwed.
— — — —
When Zhu Yao woke up once again, she was on a stone bed. Her entire body was stiff, as though she had been petrified. After spending a lot of effort, she finally managed to sit up. As she adjusted her body, she inspected her surroundings. This was a stone room, and it was completely sealed. There were quite a few formations that gathered spiritual energy inside, and the spiritual energy was very abundant.
She sat for exactly an hour, before her meridians were unobstructed, and her stiff body began to slowly relax as well.
Taking a deep breath, she wanted to circulate the spiritual energy in her body, only to realize that her Dantian was completely empty.
The hell, what happened to the promised powerful avatar? She couldn't possibly have to cultivate from the beginning again, right?
Wait a minute!
It wasn't that simple. She calmed her heart, and immediately looked into her body. She realized that although her body did not have any spiritual energy, her divine sense was as vast as the ocean. The hell, this divine sense was clearly at the pace of a Demigod.
Zhu Yao was instantly excited. So it was just a lack of electricity, and she finally did not have to cultivate from the beginning again.
Hence, she immediately guided spiritual energy into her body. In an instant, the spiritual energy guiding formation in the stone room began to circulate wildly, and a large amount of lightning spiritual energy began to pour into her body. Lightning flashed in the surroundings, and as though a violent gale had passed through the room, there would occasionally be lightning crackling sounds, directly striking onto the stone wall. She did not know what material the stone wall was made of, as there wasn't even the slightest trace of it.
The spiritual energy gathered by the formation was extremely limited, and in just a few moments, it had already been completely absorbed. It was basically not enough for her to recover her cultivation. However, after the formation stopped, even more spiritual energy was being transmitted up from underground, and it was endless.
It seemed like there was still a spiritual vein hidden beneath this stone room. Zhu Yao instantly felt at ease, and began to absorb the spiritual energy peacefully.
After a full ten days, her empty dantian finally had enough spiritual aura. Her cultivation had also successfully recovered to the Demigod level.
Zhu Yao casually cast a Dirt Removal Art on herself, and then, she immediately materialized a water mirror to look at her avatar's current appearance.
There was no helping it. She simply did not have much confidence in Realmspirit's character.
A woman's face appeared in the water mirror. She looked very stern, and her entire person did not look very beautiful. She could only be considered to be upright. Her height was average, her clothes were average, her looks were average, and her chest … was average as well. She looked like a female practitioner that did not have any special characteristics, and belonged to the type of face that would not be recognizable even if she was thrown into a crowd.
Zhu Yao curled her lips. So be it if she was ordinary. Currently, she no longer had any hopes for this avatar, as long as she did not turn into something strange.
She silently prepared herself mentally, and accepted this new avatar. With a wave of her hand, she kept the water mirror, and recalled the mission this time. Firstly, she had to obtain those five mystic treasures, release the miserable girl's remnant soul, and then, have a good chat with her about life.
Even if she could not eliminate her resentment, at the very least, she could send her to reincarnate.
With her current Demigod strength, Zhu Yao felt very confident.
After carefully inspecting this stone room, she saw a formation on the right wall. It seemed like that was the exit. Zhu Yao did not hesitate, and immediately injected a strand of spiritual energy into the formation. With a loud bang, the entire right wall began to slowly open to the two sides.
Before she could even take a step out, she realized an old man was standing outside the door. He had the cultivation of an early-stage Nascent Soul practitioner, and he was dressed in a blue robe as well. He even had a long white beard on his face, and he held a horsetail whisk in his hand, giving him a very sage-like appearance.
A large group of disciples followed behind him. There were males and females, old and young, and they densely filled up the entire mountain slope at the entrance of the cave.
Zhu Yao's heart trembled. What were these people planning to do? Were they going to fight?
Seeing her come out, the eyes of the sage-like old man shone. Taking a step forward, with a 'pa' sound, his sage-like appearance was torn apart. He bowed down towards her, and with a loud voice, he said with a powerful aura. "This disciple greets Old Ancestor!"
When his words fell, a large group of disciples behind him knelt down, and in an instant, resounding cries resounded throughout the mountain. "We greet Old Ancestor!"
"…"
