Yan Xue looked at the pale yellow bottle in her hand. She clenched her fists so hard that her veins were exposed and her eyes were flickering.
At this moment, she had a vague premonition in her heart that after drinking this bottle of Soul Returning Water, her life from now on would most likely change.
However, just like what Lin Xuan had said, she was not willing to live a muddle-headed life. She was not willing to be anyone's puppet. Even if it was only a possibility, she would not allow it.
Therefore, she resolutely pulled out the cork, tilted her head up, and drank the Soul Returning Water without hesitation.
The Soul Returning Water tasted a little sweet. It melted as soon as it entered her throat and turned into a peculiar energy. It flowed into her head and entered her consciousness before it finally merged with her spirit.
Then, Yan Xue felt the world spinning in front of her. She almost lost her balance.
However, at the same time, images from the depths of her memories started to appear in her mind. They appeared one by one and gradually disappeared.
Gradually, she remembered how she babbled when she was a child. She remembered how she first learned to hold a sword when she was a toddler. She remembered how she first dressed up when she was in her prime. She remembered how she first met Qin Tiange …
She had experienced a total of 79 years in her life. It felt like a snap of her fingers but it also felt like an eternity.
Scenes of memories, either blurry or clear, filled her with boundless emotions.
However, at the same time, she gradually discovered a very unfamiliar memory.
The reason why the memory was unfamiliar was because it felt like she had never experienced it before. However, it was so real that she could not doubt it.
She faced the breeze and stood at the top of the mountain. Her eyes were unfocused and her face gradually turned solemn.
"What, what's going on?"
Yan Xue mumbled.
The memory happened 30 years ago on a day.
That day, she had made an appointment with Qin Tiange to explore a relic in outer space.
The relic was a battlefield left behind from the Primordial War of the Gods. It had been explored by various forces in the Ming Xu World for a few thousand years. There was not much value in exploring it.
However, if they were lucky enough, they could still find some extraordinary opportunities.
In the beginning, the two of them were very successful. Yan Xue found a ten-thousand-year-old King Herb in the relic and they were very happy.
But in the next few days, the two of them didn't find anything and lost interest.
Seeing that the agreed date of return was approaching, the unwilling Qin Tiange suddenly wanted to take a risk and enter the depths of the Ancient Remnant. He wanted to explore the most mysterious and dangerous forbidden area for fortuitous encounters.
The forbidden zone had once taken the lives of countless experts in the Ming Xu World. Even a few peerless experts in the Virtual God Realm had died there. It was known as the Forbidden Zone of Death.
However, those who entered the forbidden area and still came out alive all had great gains. They either had a great increase in their cultivation or obtained great treasures, causing countless people to be envious.
However, because it was extremely dangerous, almost everyone who went in died. Therefore, those who dared to go in and try their luck were mostly people who had no hope of breaking through or whose lifespans were exhausted.
On the other hand, Yan Xue and Qin Tiange were in their prime and were peerless prodigies with bright futures ahead of them. It was not wise to risk their lives for luck.
Therefore, Yan Xue clearly objected to it.
However, Qin Tiange did not know what was wrong with him. His desire to go in was very strong, and he did not hesitate to use their relationship as a threat.
In the end, Yan Xue could not dissuade Qin Tiange and could only follow him into the Death Forbidden Zone.
However, not long after they entered, the two of them triggered a Prohibition. A cloud of fog shrouded them, causing them to be separated.
In the cloud of fog, one could not see, hear, or release one's mental strength. Yan Xue felt as though she had become deaf and blind.
She was anxious. As she guarded her surroundings, she searched for Qin Tiange bitterly.
Time passed by and three days passed. She still could not find Qin Tiange, and she could not walk out of the fog.
It wasn't until a certain moment three days later that her eyes suddenly lit up. She actually accidentally walked into a lofty and magnificent hall and instantly recovered all of her senses.
What made her even more elated was that she saw Qin Tiange, whom she had been searching for, in the depths of the mysterious palace.
She was overjoyed and wanted to run over. However, in the next moment, she stopped and looked at Qin Tiange in confusion.
At that moment, she realized that Qin Tiange was kneeling at the end of the palace. He was talking to a deity statue with black wings in the sky.
"Almighty God of Darkness, I, Qin Tiange, am willing to become your most loyal believer. I am willing to sacrifice everything for you. Please give me strength!"
"What if I ask you to betray the human race?"
"The human race is just a despicable race. I am ashamed to be a human. Please give me the Body of Darkness. Let me wash away this despicable bloodline and become your most legitimate believer!"
"Alright, I will give you the Body of Darkness. However, before that, I need you to complete an important mission!"
"Please tell me, Lord!"
"You have extraordinary potential and great luck. You have the potential to become a strong person. I want you to return to the human race and seize the highest authority in the human race. Then, break the Human Emperor's shackles and connect to the Dark Region. Let the Ming Xu World and the human race return to the embrace of darkness! "
"Don't worry, Lord. I will do my best to fulfill your wish. I will let the Ming Xu World and the human race return to the embrace of darkness!"
"Alright. In order for you to complete your mission, I will give you a drop of Metal Way Divine Body blood. You will be able to master the extraordinary power of the Metal Way …"
Yan Xue stood at the entrance of the palace and witnessed Qin Tiange's words and actions. She was shocked. She shouted angrily, "Tiange! What are you doing? You are a human. Why are you betraying the human race? "
Hearing Yan Xue's voice, Qin Tiange turned around and looked at Yan Xue.
Yan Xue couldn't help but tremble. She was surprised to find that the current Qin Tiange seemed to be different from before. On that familiar handsome face, there was a pair of eyes as black as ink. There was no difference between the pupils of his eyes, only an endless darkness.
At that moment, Qin Tiange did not have any warmth. There was only coldness and unfamiliarity. One look at him would send chills down one's spine.
"Devil! You are making a deal with the devil! Qin Tiange, wake up! "
Yan Xue shouted angrily.
However, in the next moment, Qin Tiange returned to normal. Yan Xue almost thought that it was an illusion.
Qin Tiange smiled and looked at Yan Xue. He asked gently, "Xue 'er, what are you talking about? You found this place too. That's great. I was worried about you! "
"Tiange, are … are you okay?" Yan Xue asked curiously.
Qin Tiange shrugged and smiled. "Look at me. Do I look like I'm not okay?"
Although Yan Xue still had her doubts, she didn't want to be entangled with Qin Tiange here. She looked at the cold black statue with fear and said, "Since you are fine, let's leave quickly. This … this doesn't seem to be a good place."
"Alright, we have been out for long enough. It's time to go back. Otherwise, our families will be worried."
Qin Tiange was completely normal. It was as if nothing had happened.
On the way back, the Yin Fog had dissipated. The two of them quickly found the right path.
However, on the way back, Yan Xue was worried. She looked at Qin Tiange from time to time.
