Chapter 1285. Awakening! (1) (1/2)
Inside the valley, Wang Lin’s stone statue had turned from an old man to a youth. He looked the same as he did before he turned into a stone statue. Li Qianmei silently stared at the stone statue. Every time she looked at it, she felt like Wang Lin was standing before her.
“You promised me you would send me off…” Li Qianmei whispered as if she was talking to herself and at the same time to Wang Lin.
Her memories of Wang Lin had often appeared in her mind over the last six years, becoming more ingrained. However, she would sometimes ask herself why everything had become like this.
She didn’t understand why, but Wang Lin’s figure in her heart had become even stronger...
What she thought about the most and what kept going through her mind when she cultivated was the eyes of the fish in the water staring at the bird in the sky.
The bird fell down once and shook its feathers. While drinking water, its gaze met with the fish’s in the water. Although it was only for an instant, it seemed to last for an eternity inside Li Qianmei’s mind.
“Is there really… a past life…” Li Qianmei bit her lower lip as she tore off the scabs on her 10 fingers and continued to cover Wang Lin’s statue in blood.
Time unknowingly passed. In the blink of an eye, another year went by.
During this year, Wang Lin’s stone statue began to absorb even faster. Li Qianmei only had half an hour a day to rest. She spent the rest of the time looking at the statue. Before the blood had been fully absorbed, she had to cover it again.
Over and over… This year of time was almost equal to the previous six years combined… There wasn’t much time to recover, so she could only continue this constant consumption of her vitality.
The pills in her storage space had been almost all used up. She had consumed them to turn them into origin energy and restore her vitality.
However, the consumption of pills couldn’t compare to the vitality she used. Even more pills wouldn’t help. They would be useless… because Li Qianmei had no time to digest the pills. She only had half an hour every day...
If the pills interrupted her from covering Wang Lin with blood, then her seven years of effort would be lost...
Li Qianmei’s face was pale and gloomy. Only her eyes still shined. She didn’t think about whether it was worth it or not, she only knew that she want to do this, that she had to do this… There was no regret...
This was enough.
After covering Wang Lin’s statue with blood, Li Qianmei took out a pill and quickly put it in her mouth. She used all the time she had to absorb it, and after half an hour, she gave up, allowing the pill to dissipate. She barely exchanged it for some more origin energy before forcing her own vitality to produce more blood to cover the statue...
One month, two months, three months… A woman with her tenacity, her obsession, and her determination to last eight years...
She didn’t wait hundreds of years like Li Muwan or the lonely music, but she had the same obsession. Whether it was eight more years or until the end of her life...
“You still haven’t answered the third question. I still haven’t hear your answer to the third question…”
Li Qianmei bit her lip as she continued to cover the statue in blood until the end of eternity.
After eight years, she didn’t have that half hour of rest. Wang Lin’s stone statue’s absorption had reached a terrifying degree. The statue would absorb the blood almost as soon as it was covered, and she would have to begin covering it in blood once more.
This method made her even more fragile. She had no time to rest or cultivate, and she relied on her Nirvana Shatterer cultivation to overdraft her life force.
A woman could do all of this. Asking whether it was worth it or not was blasphemy...
She had lost her ability to think and stopped thinking about anything. Her memories of Wang Lin flashed in her mind and turned into a force that helped her get through the eighth year.
However, the most terrifying was the ninth year. Wang Lin’s stone statue’s absorption had reached a terrifying degree. Often, before she even finished covering him in blood, a part that had been covered earlier would have already dissipated.
This exceeded Li Qianmei’s limit. Even if she used both her hands, she couldn’t keep up. After discovering this, she revealed a miserable expression and didn’t hesitate to bite the tip of her tongue to use her essence blood!
Essence blood was very important to a cultivator. The amount one had determined everything for a cultivator. It didn’t exist in the limbs, only at the tip of the tongue and the heart.
One drop of blood here was equal to the entire body.
After she spat out the essence blood from the tip of her tongue, her hand formed a seal and turned it into a blood mist a that covered the stone statue. Only by using this method of extreme consumption could she keep up with the rapid absorption.
