Chapter 582: Life and Death VI (1/2)
Black and White merged to become gray. Life and Destruction mingled, giving birth to Creation, thus, the flames of chaos appeared. In the Furnace of Chaos, the light of the gray flames blazed. With but a touch, the Mortal that made up the Blood Seeker melted, the killing intent within, however, fought back.
The killing intent attempted to take over the flames but Wang Ling suppressed its existence and melted everything. Without missing a beat the rest of the materials were melted and placed in the furnace.
”The Flames of Chaos brought everything int this world, however, everything was molded with your hands.”
Bai Xue said and Wang Ling coated his hands with the black mark. His eyes glowed red and then plunged his hand on the furnace. The flames surged and enveloped the entire space. The Flames could not be easily contained, it rampaged and attacked everything that wasn't Wang Ling, even space was not safe.
Bai Xue dominated the flames with her presence and kept it around Wang Ling. Her nine flames appeared from behind and used them to direct the flames back, [Concentrate, if I slip up for a second, then the Deity Paradise would fall… tsk, I guess we should've moved the people inside to the ”Last Bastion” so I don't have to worry.]
If this was the past, outside of her daughter, the Wang Family, Deities, and some peons that Wang Ling took in, Bai Xue wouldn't bother caring for others. Alas, she was given the responsibilities of the All-Mother.
Bai Xue sighed, [I can't even fight back against those in the living. I hesitate when it's not against the Revenants or the Demons, and I somehow feel hesitant when I think of killing that bastard.]
Bai Xue literally has the power on the tip of her fingers. She controls everything yet she cannot even use it to dominate through force, [The stronger I get the more I lose. Now, only Ling can have all the fun.] It was starting to get boring for Bai Xue.
She remained in her thoughts as Wang Ling continued forging his sword. He continued molding the sword, changing its form, perfecting it in every way. The feel of the handle, the sharpness of the blade, the inside, the reaction, its core.
Everything was being analyzed by Wang Ling's mind at a different dimension altogether. Wang Ling never had training in forging swords, he just picks up everything and use different swords to strengthen his natal weapon.
However, right now, he carefully took off anything that was unneeded. Any shrapnel that found its way to his sword, any substance, anything that could be a detriment. The World Treasures were even picked apart for scraps, his own flesh, even.
Wang Ling did not spare any effort to forge the sword that could kill the Emperor of Death.
Thus, four days after he and Bai Xue retreated to a different dimension Wang Ling stopped any and every movement. His flames retreated; his qi subsided and with a smile, he announced, ”I'm done.”
He smiled as the blade glowed crimson, Wang Ling touched its handle and whispered, ”Howl.”
Slash!
Thus, space was split in half.
The two returned to reality.
On a hill split in the middle, Wang Ling and Bai Xue's fox form reappeared. The sword was nowhere to be found as it was already kept away. It was too dangerous to be left in a reality where it could cut react and cut indiscriminately.
Wang Ling kept it in a safe place.
”Should we kill the Gray Bastard now Xu—ack!”
Pah!
”What do you mean fight!? We're killing the emperor later, let's check on Qinyang first!” Bai Xue hit Wang Ling with her paws, ”You bastard took way too long. What if my little Qinyang misses her dear mother?”
”…Well, I thought I'd meet her again when we solve everything and everything is peaceful—”
Pah!
Bai Xue pulled on Wang Ling's white hair ”You useless parent. Qinyang is a jealous kid; she wants to be pampered and must be the first person that comes to mind.”
Bai Xue wrapped Wang Ling with her tail before dragging him in front of Qinyang's house, ”You two really need to spend a lot of time together. You don't even know something so… simple.”
Wang Ling smirked, ”Oh, I know about her jealous side. Do you know how she reacted when I was treating Chang Ping, she pouted, and looked like she was fuming. I didn't know why she was acting like that at the time, but it appears, she wanted to spend time with me.”
Bai Xue laughed at Wang Ling's little story, ”Shishishi, that's just the tip of the ice… berg….”
Bai Xue stopped her; her smile transformed into a frown. Her eyes glowed with joy and excitement to that of a lifeless shade of crimson.
