—2 Years Later—
The Star of Mu, Hongxa Galaxy
A young man with white hair, sharp eyebrows like a black sword. He was wearing a plain white male hanfu, sitting on a two-metre-high stone chunk in the depths of the cave. His eyes were closed, calm like water.
The man sat quietly without any movement, not even his breath was heard and there was no up and down chest movement. It was as if the man was a delicate jade statue, not a human.
Taps... Taps... Taps...
There were footsteps from the outside of the cave, the steps were heard stacking up, which signified that it was not just one person.
The one leading was the sparkling black-haired young lady, her brows looking thin but extremely beautiful, her black eyes glittering like stars in the night sky. Her thin, red lips were blushing with her silky smooth face, and her expression looked cold yet beautiful.
Beside him was a brown-haired young lady, sparkling night blue eyes, her eyebrows were black and looking extremely beautiful. Her lips were a little thick, but it perfectly matched the structure of her face, moreover it was a blushing red and slightly watery. Her face was smooth, her expression was like a goddess descending from heaven with a smile.
The third, originally had black hair, but because of something, the color changed. Silver in color and can reflect the color of flowers in her hair, her eyebrows are black and very beautiful, her eyes are night blue plus her lashes are white lentic adds to her appeal. Her red lips blushed a little watery adding to her beauty.
Hong Xi Ning, Qin Nian and Yun Ning.
The three of them had increased their cultivation within these two years. Late-stage Red God and Intermediate-stage Beginner God. An extremely rapid increase in just two years' time brackets, usually ordinary people would need hundreds of thousands of years, or even be unable to reach it until their depleted lifespan.
"It's been a year since we got here, Nan Ren hasn't woken up yet." Hong Xi Ning looked at the man who was none other than Mo Lian. His gaze revealed longing and worry.
Yun Ning looked at him with the same gaze, even her tears started flowing down her left cheek. "I know cultivators can seclude themselves for thousands of years, but after the days we went through on Earth ..." He did not continue and just took a breath.
Hong Xi Ning had already been abandoned for ten years, but it was different now. In just a year, he felt he could no longer wait.
A few days after they arrived at Star Mu, Mo Lian found the cave and said that she wanted to seclude herself for a while. It was to try to penetrate the Earth God, but they knew, Mo Lian could easily break through it, and because of that, they were worried about Mo Lian's unfathomable condition.
Qin Nian carried a bucket as he climbed up the chunk of stone, then took off Mo Lian's top clothes. Although those who had reached the God Realm would not be exposed to dirt, even the dust would go off on its own, but Qin Nian would still take care of him every day.
Qin Nian dipped the cloth in a bucket of water, then squeezed it and rubbed it on Mo Lian's back and chest and stomach. He did it carefully and very gently.
Hong Xi Ning and Yun Ning also helped, they helped to clean Mo Lian's hair to stay awake. Although, although it was not cleaned, Mo Lian's body did not give off an uncomfortable smell, the scent coming out of her body was very soothing and made them comfortable.
***
At this moment, Mo Lian had been inside her own consciousness and it felt very long. Not a year like the one outside, he had already stayed here for thousands of years to increase his Soul Power.
He knew this was very important shortly after entering the Southern Region. The strength here was beyond reason, and although he had yet to find a suitable place to break through to the Earth God, he would at least increase his Soul Power to the limit he could reach at the moment.
He was inside a clean white room, which from time to time would be contaminated and destroyed. It kept repeating itself for thousands of years inside the white room. This is because his mental state is constantly disturbed.
Although he has been reborn, but he still can not be separated about his previous life that has experienced many things.
In this time, Mo Lian had been living in the shadows and was trying to defend herself. But, every time he saw the person closest to him die, his mind would waver.
This was the least recommended method to increase Soul Power, but it was more effective because the increase was huge.
Using this method must not release power, must not destroy the self-created illusion and must see it to the end. If it does not waver and continues to maintain it, then everything will end well.
...
The image of the memory of his previous life was again seen before his eyes, and was headed straight for the death of his beloved sister. Seeing that, Mo Lian's hand trembled as she clenched it tightly, trying to resist from destroying the projection in front of her.
Mo Lian regulated her breathing, trying to calm down again as the projection in front of her continued to run. Until his mother's death and his house burned down, his emotions almost broke, but he was arrested again.
Especially was the moment of forced death due to being exposed to the Dao Tribulation, where it was forbidden to enter the Celestial Realm.
If it is just an illusion, it is not too much of a problem, but the pain can be felt, as if experiencing the same thing again. In the thousands of years within his consciousness, Mo Lian had experienced hundreds of thousands of times the pain.
Even if you feel pain, but it's all worth it. His Soul Power had increased significantly, and it was extremely incredible. After all, with his current strength, increasing the strength by rice seeds was extremely difficult.
...
Time continued to roll, until finally Mo Lian was at the end of the memory that until now had only once seen back. Against Dao, he remained calm.
***
Mo Lian's body that was being cleansed, suddenly let out a white mist with a white light that was faintly visible emanating from her.
Qin Nian who was washing the bottom of Mo Lian's stomach, frowned and stepped back. So did Hong Xi Ning and Yun Ning.
"What's going on?" Hong Xi Ning looked puzzled as she looked at Mo Lian with a worried look.
Qin Nian just kept quiet and shook his head with his mouth open. There were worries, but no idea what to do.
The light that shone on Mo Lian's body only appeared for a moment before dimming back, along with the smog that disappeared out of nowhere.
Mo Lian's eyelids twitched, then opened slowly. His eyes looked like they were devoid of light, but were extremely deep, as if capable of swallowing anyone who saw them.
Mo Lian took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly. He did it over and over again until his body functions returned to normal. This was the dangerous method that Mo Lian used, if his cultivation was too low, perhaps his body would rot first even a moment after starting.
This method was extremely secretive, he created it himself by accident while facing a powerful enemy that came out of nowhere. But according to Hong Xi Jiang's explanation earlier, it should be from the Western Region who came to the Center hundreds of years into the future.
"Nan Ren!" Hong Xi Ning shouted as he ran towards Mo Lian and hugged her tightly.
Mo Lian blinked a few times until her eyes regained their shine. Then he returned Hong Xi Ning's embrace, as did Qin Nian and Yun Ning who had come to him.
He gave a kiss on each other's forehead, as well as rubbed the tears that ran in their eyes.
"I'm fine, sorry for making you wait so long."
Hong Xi Ning shook his head, but did not say anything and still hugged Mo Lian tightly.
Mo Lian sighed. His Soul Power could withstand the soul attacks of the Heaven God, this was a satisfactory progress, and the next only needed to find a quiet place that was both good and suitable for breaking through the Earth God.
Breaking through in the Western Region was probably the best, but it was fraught with life-threatening risks.
Suitable place, I can find it later. Now, we just have to look for resources to increase the strength of the three. If possible, I would like to open a branch of the Dongfangzhi Sect in the Western Region, but, is it safe?
Mo Lian nodded and asked herself.
Mo Lian sighed again, then rubbed the backs of her wives to let them calm down again.
