Chapter 555 - Magic Lamp (1/2)
The moon god watched quietly as Xiao Mang grand ancestor's Yuan Shen left. It was as if the goddess didn't want to fill her hands with blood, to pollute her pure mind with violence and stain her heart with the worldly affairs.
Even when Xiao Mang grand ancestor has stole the moon core, imprisoned her and robbed her off from what she rightfully possesses, she didn't have much grudges against him.
To her, everything Xiao Mang grand ancestor has done doesn't matter much, as long as she was able to retrieve whatever she has lost. Revenge seemed rather dull to her.
Faraway, a patch of demonic clouds have flew over and formed into a huge head above the battlefield. He was immediately attracted by the goddess's beautifulness and was piqued in interest.
It was truly an amazing view. In the sky above, there was a huge head formed by the demonic clouds and on the ground, a beautiful goddess stood exactly below the huge head. Around them, the elements of heaven and earth, fire, water, earth, wind and many others were lost in control. They were ravaging and destroying every piece of land around.
The huge head formed by the demonic clouds belonged to Lord Demon.
He was attracted by the battle and has flew out from his tomb to check it out. But by the time he reaches the battlefield, it has already ended. All he could see was the beautiful goddess standing in the center.
If I can bring her home as my wife… , he was just thinking about it when he caught a glimpse on Xiao Mang grand ancestor's stone petrified mortal body. His face changed drastically and left instantly back to the demon land.
After some time, Lord Demon's spirit was still shivering in his tomb.
"Xiao Mang is dead, that lady is an innate god! But if she can be taken home as a wife…"
Then, there were sounds of water billowing in the air. An ocean appeared out of nowhere in the sky as the dragon ancestor's spirit was also attracted by the battle and headed over with an ocean of water.
This Ao Clan dragon spirit coiled itself in the waters and his head with long dragon whiskers rose high up from the water surface.
The huge dragon opened his eyes and glanced around the goddess. All of a sudden, the dragon ancestor was shocked to see how beautiful the lady was. He quickly turned into a dragon-headed young man and just as he was going to walk over, he remembered something.
A ball of water emerged in his hands and he washed his face. He visualized a mirror to tidy up his appearances but as soon as he looked at the reflection of his face again, he suddenly felt like he wasn't good enough to talk to her.
Piang—
The mirror shattered on the ground and dispersed into thin air while the dragon turned and left while covering his face.
Kacha—
In the flash of a lightning, the ocean water along with the dragon ancestor has returned to the Eastern Sea.
The goddess was nonchalant to the incomers at all, she glanced at the splintered moon core and waved her sleeves. The moon core fragments flew up and were kept away by her.
Casually, she stepped in the blank air as if there was an invisible stair. Soon after, the moon was visited by a elegant and yet lonely lady.
She came within the moon, the moon was like a huge egg that has nurtured her growth.
But it wasn't the moon that brought her to life, it was that surge of Innate Tai Yin Divine Water Shang Qing has cast out during the battle with Zhong Yue in the Returning Ruins.
The Innate Tai Yin Divine Water was made from the Innate Tai Yin Qi, it was even stronger than the Tai Yin Qi. It was that surge of Innate Tai Yin Divine Water that has recuperated the loss of essences Xiao Mang grand ancestor has stolen from her. It was that surge of Innate Tai Yin Divine Water that gave her life.
Shang Qing's Innate Tai Yin Divine Water was a gift from an ancient Innate Moon God to the Reincarnation Monarch. It was exactly because she has refined and absorbed the Innate Tai Yin Divine Water can she became so strong even when she has just awakened.
Just as the goddess was going to walk into the moon, she suddenly stopped and listened.
But there were no sounds in here, it was dead quiet. Suddenly, a wave of bizarre frequency has radiated over from the space, which eventually were converted into voices that sounded in her mind.
It was a language unknown to the world, it sounded ancient and the pronunciations were for beyond complexity.
The goddess tilted her head and listened, somehow, she could understand them. She shook her head and replied, "I cannot leave the Ancestral Star yet."
Her voice was converted into another phrase of bizarre frequency that radiated into the space.
Moments later, another wave of frequency reached to her and turned into voices again.
She listened quietly and shook her head again, "I am saved by someone, I have to repay his debt before I leave."
After some time, another wave of frequency has radiated over.
This time, the goddess has nodded, "Alright, I will go there after I settle the things in here."
Then, the frequency never came anymore.
The goddess pondered deeply, she gazed into the endless space in a pair of placid eyes. After a long time, she has lowered her head and mumbled softly, "But how should I repay the debt?"
She thought for a very time. Then, she walked into the moon and glanced around at the huge hole inside of the moon. She took out the moon core fragments and compared the sizes but the goddess shook her head.
The moon core fragments she have were far too little to fill into the missing hole inside of the moon.
Xiao Mang grand ancestor has stolen the moon core and ate a huge chunk of it. While in the passage of time, there would also be some parts of the moon core that were given out to the prominent Xiao Mang Celestial Race experts.
Progressively until now, more than half of the moon core was already missing. If she had left these moon core fragments inside the moon, they would disrupt the balances and affect the movements of the moon. Eventually leading to the moon's disappearance into the endless space or that it would fall right into the Ancestral Star.
Rendered no choice, the goddess could only gather the moon core fragments and refine them into a bright pearl.
"Then it's time, to repay my debt…", she mumbled softly as she walked out of the moon toward the Ancestral Star.
