Chapter 596: The Oil was Exhausted and the Lamp was Dry (2/2)
Other than such people only when a Paragon perished would the ringing of the death knell be heard in the Sect…
When the ninth bell tolled, Meng Hao suddenly trembled He slowly lifted up his head, as did Ke Jiusi
“Bells…” he murmured Fear filled his heart, and suddenly he didn’t care about anything He didn’t care about the pill concocting, or the illusion, or the ancient times He didn’t even care if this batch of pills really were Celestial Pills, nor whether or not he succeeded in concocting theht swept over hi, he rose to his feet
In that instant a roaring sound could be heard from the pill furnace The medicinal pills and the furnace itself suddenly exploded; their connection to Meng Hao was broken, and blood sprayed out of his mouth The blood spattered down onto the exploded remnants of the medicinal pills; this was blood filled with his indescribable thoughts, thoughts that carried his unceasing love for a father
“Dad…” Without hesitation, Meng Hao rushed outside
He left the pill concocting workshop, completely unaware that within the shattered remnants of the pill furnace were nine destroyed pills However, the batch had been a batch of ten All of the ed into the tenth pill
That tenth an to transfor real!
The pill also absorbed Meng Hao’s blood, which contained his true feelings and ehly trans!
However, it didn’t , nor that itHao had dreamed of Within his mind, there was no medicinal pill There was only his anxiety, an anxiety so intense that he forgot who he was…
He rushed out of the pill concocting workshop, out of the Immortal’s cave, out of the entire area he was in He transforht that shot with incredible speed toward Ke Yunhai’s Ihout the seven great mountain peaks of the First Heaven… DONG… DONG… When the thirteenth toll was reached, Meng Hao arrived at Ke Yunhai’s I that the door was sealed shut tightly, tears began to pour down Meng Hao’s face He kneeled in front of the door
“Father!” His voice wasn’t very loud, but it filled the entire Fourth Mountain His eyes et He wasn’t sure when, but at sohly immersed himself into this ancient, illusory world Ke Yunhai had appeared to fill a void of fatherly love that had existed in his heart since he was young
That void was so Hao usually kept carefully hidden away He did not want anyone to touch it, not even himself
But then, Ke Yunhai had appeared in this ancient illusion, and that void… had been filled
Meng Hao’s heart was being ripped into pieces To him, Heaven and Earth had lost all color An indescribable feeling surged over him; he felt like his body had been turned into a black hole that was consu
“Father…” Tears streamed down his face as he looked at the door of the Immortal’s cave The death knell continued to echo about It had now tolled nineteen tiht to surround the Fourth Peak Currently, nineteen glowing rings of light surrounded theHao’s face to drop to the ground, the door to the Ian to open silently Ke Yunhai’s exhausted voice could suddenly be heard fro Hao’s head shot up ian to tremble Without any hesitation, he rushed inside The Immortal’s cave was dark, but he could still see Ke Yunhai sitting there cross-legged on his stone bed
Ke Yunhai was even more ancient than before He seeht pulsated out from him; it see away into meditation
As for the lamp next to hiht eak, as if the slightest wind could blow it out
An enormous coffin rested off to the side, its surface carved with auspicious beasts It seemed ordinary, but if you looked closely, you would be able to see how incredible it was
“Jiusi, don’t cry…” he said hoarsely, looked at Meng Hao with a tender expression “You’ve grown up Daddy can’t stay with you forever From now on, you’ll need to rely on yourself… However, there is one last thing I can do for you Before I pass away into ive you the precious treasure of a lifetied personally by me!”
The death knell outside had reached the fifty-seventh toll When it reached ninety-nine, the soul would disperse Along with the ninety-nine rings of light created by the bell tolls, it would return to Heaven and Earth, and enter the underworld…

Note from Er Gen: The love of a father is like a mountain For many years, I didn’t understand this I truly cao, when I became a father Then I understood how the love of a father and , I read an essay by Zhu Ziqing, called ure I didn’t understand it then, but many years later it came to mind Every ti becomes more profound Every time I read it, I understand more about what it means to be a father
Today, I won’t ask for any h life to all fathers (Brothers and Sisters, please spend more time with your father Take more opportunities to wish him well It wasn’t until I had my own child that I realized how difficult it is for a father and mother to raise a child)
