Chapter 1521: Chapter 666: Gou Li Breaks Through to Demon Sect! Ji Xiuning Collapses!_2
Therefore, after Lanling came back to life, she still remained lifeless.
Because she willingly chose to follow Lanling in burial.
Next, Lanling tried various methods to activate Gou Li’s soul, all of which failed.
No means could revive her soul.
Finally, Lanling fixed his gaze on the Ghost King’s ring in his hand!
This ring contained incredibly powerful energy, and perhaps an energy blast could activate Gou Li’s soul?
It’s like on Earth, when someone’s heart stops beating, it needs a jolt.
Or like a vegetative person, who might wake up after a very strong stimulus.
However, the ring contained strong energy, if Lanling wore it, his cultivation might leap forward one or even two levels.
Without hesitation, Lanling put the Ghost King’s ring on Gou Li’s slender fingers.
Indeed it was an energy explosion!
Lanling’s body was directly blasted away.
“Crack…” At the same time, Gou Li’s body instantly became crystallized, as a form of self-protection.
However, even the crystallization did no good; her body was instantly shattered, turning into countless sparkling fragments, flying everywhere.
Lanling was completely astonished.
He knew the Ghost King’s ring held tremendous energy, but didn’t expect it to be so immense, that even Gou Li’s crystalline body couldn’t withstand it.
Then, the energy continues to bombard.
And Gou Li’s body never reformed.
She completely turned into a mass of energy life, encompassing her heart, neural domain, and energy meridians.
The Ghost King’s ring energy frantically bombarded her energy heart, her meridians, her neural domain.
Gou Li’s cultivation had already reached peak-level Demon Martial Grandmaster, both in Martial Arts and Qi Dao.
Therefore, the ring’s energy was entirely used to refine, transform, and rebirth her energy heart, meridians, and mental domain.
Lanling could even see every bit of it with his own eyes.
Originally, Gou Li’s energy meridians were blue, after inch-by-inch transformation, they turned into a faint green, like ghostly flames.
From the heart, to the neural domain, finally to the tips of the meridians.
Thousands of energy blasts, energy transformations.
After a full quarter hour, every inch of her meridians was completely transformed.
Then, the previously shattered crystal fragments began to condense, reforming into a human body.
A few minutes later, Gou Li’s crystalline body was fully restored.
Energy bombardment concluded!
Gou Li’s crystalline form transmuted into the enchanting and beautiful form of a young woman.
But, she remained unconscious.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh…”
Suddenly, her body seemed to burst forth with countless Gang Qi, smashing the surrounding dozens of meters of the Ruins of Doom Magic Capital into powder.
This trait signifies a breakthrough into Demon Sect!
Every Demon Clan Person breaking through Demon Sect undergoes a complete energy release, as if testing the body’s meridians to see if they can withstand such powerful energy attacks, because after breaking through, attacks shift from physical to energy-based.
Symbolizing the energy attack release of Demon Sect, Gou Li’s eyelashes quivered slightly, then she opened her eyes.
Seeing the living Lanling, she said nothing, but directly knelt before him, wrapped her arms around his legs, burying her gorgeous face in them.
“From now on, you are the new Ghost King.” Lanling smiled.
“Alright…” Gou Li replied, “I’ll become a female Ghost King who forever kneels before you!”
“Master, the Ghost King is truly remarkable…” Gou Li said, “I don’t know about the other Hell Knights, but I believe there’s none more outstanding than the Ghost King. In the future, I’ll look up to it, becoming an independent, loyal, powerful, wise Death Samurai!”
Gou Li placed independence first.
Because in her view, true loyalty exists only under independent freedom.
Otherwise, you’re just a puppet, just a lifeless shell.
The Ghost King, also known as the fourth Death Knight, is the best example.
It embodies loyalty in its own unique way. It doesn’t just wait obediently; it ventures alone to continue the Demon Emperor’s endeavors.
Even though it failed, it made immense gains!
“Master, we should leave now, time is running short, you need to comprehend Hell Lightning.” Gou Li said, “Your cultivation has made an astounding breakthrough, but should still not be a match for the Black Demon Banner Master. Only after comprehending Hell Lightning can you defeat him.”
Witch Kingdom, Sea Blue Flag Territory.
Lan Mei really went to Witch City and secured a cup of Divine Demon Source Spring, or rather tricked a cup of it.
In Witch Kingdom, the Divine Demon Source Spring is incredibly precious, because for a long time it’s been non-renewable; each cup used means less of it.
Only the most outstanding samurai of Witch Kingdom would request a cup to nurture the finest offspring.
Because a cup of Divine Demon Source Spring represents a Witch Kingdom child. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by novel fire.net
Witch Kingdom relies entirely on the Divine Demon Source Spring for continuation, so the population is gradually declining.
Lan Mei claimed that Banner Master Lan Qi wanted to nurture offspring, hence applying for a precious cup of Divine Demon Source Spring from Witch City.
The elder overseeing the Divine Demon Source Spring is an incredibly powerful spirit master, no one can lie in front of her.
Yet… Lan Mei seems to be an exception.
She’s a little demon, showing no spiritual fluctuations when lying, so no one notices.
Thus, till now, everyone thinks little Lan Mei, despite being mischievous and sly, is honest, never lies.
Meanwhile, Ji Xiuning was placed in the center of an energy array, her body surface still covered by a shell immune to any energy attacks.
Banner Master Lan Qi held a cup of Divine Demon Source Spring, placed it between Ji Xiuning’s legs.
“Banner Master, should we reconsider?” little Lan Mei said.
She conceived the idea, constantly egged on Banner Master Lan Qi, and tricked the Divine Demon Source Spring from Witch City.
Yet now, she’s showing trepidation.
“What’s the matter?” Banner Master Lan Qi asked.
“If it fails, it’ll waste a precious cup of Divine Demon Source Spring.” Lan Mei said, “Moreover, everyone only has one quota of Divine Demon Source Spring, if you use it, you’ll never have a baby in your life.”
Banner Master Lan Qi sorrowfully shook her head, “I won’t bear any more…”
Such painful expressions are familiar in Witch Kingdom.
As a mother, who doesn’t love her child. But for the continuity of Witch Kingdom, the mother is merely a birthing tool; the child is taken away immediately after birth, raised far away, possibly never meeting again.
This is a deep pain for every mother.
Yet… conditions leave Witch Kingdom with no choice but to continue its lineage this way.
“But if the Divine Demon Source Spring is ineffective for Ji Xiuning, then… then we’ll waste a cup of Divine Demon Source Spring, representing one less child for Witch Kingdom,” Lan Mei lamented.
Though mischievous and sly, she harbors unparalleled love for Witch Kingdom.
Banner Master Lan Qi said nothing, directly poured the Divine Demon Source Spring over Ji Xiuning’s body.
Right after pouring, the spring disappeared, seemingly completely absorbed by Ji Xiuning’s body.
Then, Lan Qi and Lan Mei held their breath, staring at Ji Xiuning’s energy shell, fervently praying.
It must work, it must work.
Otherwise… the Divine Demon Source Spring would be wasted, Witch Kingdom would lose a child, which would be a great sin.
A fissure suddenly appeared in the energy shell between Ji Xiuning’s legs.
