Chapter 599 - Toyed By Destiny (1/2)
The Yellow Springs Pillar was very tall, and Zhou Xuanji and the others quickly flew upwards along it.
However, they soon found that the Yellow Springs Pillar did not seem to have an end.
“Don’t let your minds be swayed; if you stop, it might be over for you.”
Ren Niming’s voice sounded out in everyone’s ears, causing Xuan Daoya to tremble.
Everyone else was very resolute.
Now that things had come to this, there was no way to retreat.
Zhou Xuanji wanted to revive Lady Zhaoxuan.
Qiu Hu vowed to follow Zhou Xuanji to the death.
Si Mengyan wanted to take revenge for Old Ancestor Hongshi.
Ren Niming wanted to become destiny again.
Only Xuan Daoya did not feel much.
“Right after I left Emperor Sword Court, I fell into another hole…”
Xuan Daoya felt an ache in his liver, and his heart was filled with regret.
After flying for who knows how long, Zhou Xuanji suddenly felt that he had broken through a formless membrane. Following this, his surroundings changed and they came to a starry sky. There was a stone stage ahead, wrapped with a rainbow light.
Lady Zhaoxuan was anxious to the extreme and nervously looked around, worried that the Ninth Nether Buddha would attack again.
Soon, they all landed on the stone stage.
“Be careful,” Ren Niming reminded them. Everyone scattered at the edge of the stone stage, looking around warily.
This stone stage was not very big, and it was only about ten meters wide. There was nothing at the center; it was completely empty.
The rainbow light around the stage continued to freely flow about.
“Where is the Reincarnation Power?” Qiu Hu asked. He could not see anything, nor could he sense anything with his divine sense.
Ren Niming walked about at the edge of the stone stage and did not reply.
Crack—
The sound of a mechanism activating could be heard as a stone pillar half a meter wide rose up at the centre of the stone stage. The outside of the stone pillar began to crumble, revealing a stone statue.
The stone statue was quite strange, and it looked like a monkey.
Zhou Xuanji immediately frowned; why did he feel that this stone monkey resembled that Primordial Ancestor Statue?
He immediately thought of many possibilities.
He instinctively stretched out his hand and touched his eyes.
“Don’t tell me that time…”
Zhou Xuanji felt a chill on his back and gave off an extremely dangerous aura.
Ren Niming noticed his expression and said, “Don’t think too much; often, some things are inexplicably tied together. This is destiny.”
Zhou Xuanji deeply breathed in and slightly nodded.
The stone monkey suddenly opened its eyes and said, “Will you receive Reincarnation’s test?”
Hearing this, everyone was given a big fright.
“Who are you?” Xuan Daoya asked nervously, and everyone else prepared to fight at any moment.
The stone monkey did not reply and continued to stare ahead with hollow eyes.
Ren Niming looked at Zhou Xuanji and asked, “Do you dare to go up?”
Zhou Xuanji walked over to the stone monkey and looked at it as he asked, “If I receive Reincarnation Power, can I allow someone to resurrect?”
Everyone else inwardly became nervous.
“You can, but you need to pay a price,” the stone monkey replied with a cold, emotionless tone.
Hearing this, Lady Zhaoxuan hurriedly went up and asked, “What price?”
She tightened her fists, and she felt as if her heart was sweating.
The stone monkey replied, “To resurrect you, the many worlds must sacrifice countless creatures.”
Lady Zhaoxuan’s beautiful eyes widened and she said angrily, “Are you joking? Are you really a god?”
