Chapter 1745: Path to Becoming A Paragon (1/2)
The Ancient Arch-devil Zhao Shanling had transformed into and the third-generation Tree of Life engaged in a fierce battle in the dark land.
At the same time, Nie Tian somehow felt changes in the endless blood sea, the origin of his life bloodline.
He had a feeling that new drops of blood were being condensed and added to this endless blood sea he was in, enriching the flesh auras in this wondrous sea that represented the origin of all lives.
Subtle changes even happened to the magnetic field of life in the depths of the sea.
“A battle has broken out between Zhao Shanling and the third-generation Tree of Life,” Pei Qiqi exclaimed softly. “Zhao Shanling is actually Grand Monarch Lurking Devil, the Ancient Arch-devil of the Devils. He was born almost around the same time as the Void World came into existence. His uniqueness allowed him to live many lives in the bodies of various species across the three worlds.”
Pei Qiqi seemed to have become a different person now that her lost memories had been awakened.
“Void Spirits, Spirits of Chaos...” At this point, Nie Tian was still trying to digest the information she had dropped on him earlier. As soon as he heard her words, his eyes lit up once again. “What?! Zhao Shanling is the Grand Monarch Lurking Devil who, according to Ji Cang, is a great threat to humanity?”
Simply too many aspects of his recognition of this universe were being overturned.
“Why would he fight the Tree of Life?” he asked with a frown.
“Perhaps instead of it, he prefers that you become a paragon.” With these words, she looked around at the sparkling, crystal-clear drops of blood that made the endless blood sea, and added, “Come on. It’s about time you went and saw what the so-called origin of life really is.”
Before Nie Tian could say anything, she grabbed his hand with her jade-like, slightly chilly, thin hand.
Nie Tian went blank the moment their hands were tightly bound together.
He hadn’t canceled his Life-origin Form yet. If he had been in a regular realm, he would have been comparable to a lofty mountain peak.
However, Pei Qiqi was standing shoulder to shoulder with him at this moment.
This made him realize that this Pei Qiqi in front of him might be different from the senior martial sister Pei he knew.
“I can give you a ride,” Pei Qiqi said, looking casual and calm. “Because you helped me expand my acupoints and purge the impurities from my fleshly body with your Blood Essence, I can move around in this blood sea now. However, the surging origin of life in the depths of this blood sea will never acknowledge me. And I can never reach it.”
WHOOSH!
A mysterious connection suddenly formed between Nie Tian’s Life-origin Form and the part of her flesh aura that had been nurtured by Nie Tian’s life force-infused Blood Essence.
Nie Tian looked down, and discovered that numerous wisps of her flesh aura that were finer than hairs seemed to quickly tangle together with the flesh aura he exuded naturally.
Immediately afterwards, the two of them started flying in the blood sea like one brilliant streak of light.
Countless glorious beams of crimson light kept shooting from the depths of the blood sea.
Some of them, which recorded certain wonders, hit Nie Tian’s Life-origin Form.
However, he had a different feeling from before, when he had roamed this blood sea as a soul shadow.
Ages ago, he had come here and derived secret life magics in soul form.
When those beams of light had hit him, they passed through him and left secret magics in him in the form of soul imprints and runes.
Those beams of light had continued to shoot forward like bolts of lightning.
This time, however, as he had arrived here in true form, the beams of crimson light vanished upon hitting him.
Immediately afterwards, brand new Bloodline Crystal Chains were generated in the bloodline aura in his heart.
Not just that, but subtle changes happened to his Life-origin Form as well, before he realized it.
