Spirit Vessel Chapter 1170: Karmic Ties

Chapter 1170: Karmic Ties

Feiyun had already recalled Di Zhong and the Regal Sacred Jade back when Shui Yueting was still fighting against Shaman Crow.

He was the only one floating in space, staring at her. She was as pure and beautiful as a snowflake. She didnt look over twenty with flowing long hair and a graceful figure. She possessed an overwhelming nobility that left others breathless in addition to her otherworldly beauty.

She still had the aura of a dragonslayer, enough to cause others to tremble in horror.

Feiyun, on the other hand, met her gaze while trying to calm down.

After a while, she seemed to be slightly annoyed and said: You are the person in Fo Canzis prophecy. Since youre here, I will give you Heaven Jewel.

He didnt expect the conversation to start in this manner.

Does she not recognize my true identity?

No, she must know given her cultivation.

Shui Yueting raised her hand and a seven-sided jewel with seven colors appeared. It possessed a dazzling white light with a Buddhist affinity. There were marks of mighty Buddhist cultivators.

However, he only stared at her and saw that she was emotionless. The owner of this face once rested in his embrace with a smile before delivering the fatal blow through his heart.

She noticed his expression; his eyes were full of love, hate, rage, and other complicated emotions.

Wake up! She shouted.

The words erupted in his mind and erased all of the emotions and unnecessary thoughts.

I calculated just now and understood why you searched for me. We are indeed related by karmic ties but I can tell you that what youre searching for is not with me. We are two strangers and this is my first time seeing you. She looked like an immortal as she hovered above him with the jewel.

Her answer echoed repeatedly in his mind...

Although he already knew that his memories might not be the truth and were fabricated by a powerful cultivator, he still felt as if he had lost something about obtaining confirmation.

After all, his initial goal was vengeance. She was an unsurpassable mountain - the fuel for his determination. He wanted to become stronger so that he would be able to conquer the great mountain.

Alas, he stood at the base now and found that the mountain was no longer there. The perils and struggle suddenly disappeared.

The mountain was gone. The hatred was gone. Where would he get his determination from now?

She naturally didnt lie either. There was no need for that.

She saw the emptiness in his eyes and said: What you see on the path of cultivation might be far from the truth, the same for what you hear and what you experience. When you can tell reality from falsehood, that is the dao.

He took a deep breath and his eyes became clear again. He cupped his fist and said: Thank you for your guidance, Deity, I understand.

Your mental prowess is commendable, to be able to emerge from illusions so quickly. During Time Immemorial, half-demons were a branch of the human race and werent discriminated against. They also had access to Heavens Emergence. Would you like to join Aquamoon and contribute to the future of the human race on top of helping the half-demons regain their dignity? She nodded approvingly and stroked her chin.

She extended an invitation to him while using the future of the human race as the reason. She clearly had confidence in his potential.

He didnt respond.

As a half-demon, you surely understand the struggle of your branch, being treated worse than slaves, dont you wish for them to rise again and become a part of the human race? She asked.

You said half-demons could reach Heavens Emergence during Time Immemorial? He asked.

The grand saints from Time Immemorial were all humans, as you have known. The first, Saint Nuwa, was a half-demon. Does that answer your question? She nodded.

Those capable of reaching Heavens Emergence are stronger than both humans and demons for they possess the gifts of both races. Now, the population is plentiful but since they believe themselves to be wretched, they fall into submission and slavery. They need a legend to pull them out of the darkness and you are the most suitable. She continued.

Is that why you sent Yiyi to find me? He asked.

Only one of the reasons. At that time, you have not broken the curse and were no different from a speck of dust, not qualified to stand before me. She said.

This was merely the truth, not arrogance. Even pseudo-saints were nothing to her.

She spent this much time on him due to first, their karmic ties. Secondly, he had broken the curse and became a legend for the half-demons. He was equal to the clan master of a race now and was qualified to speak to her.

The calamity is coming and the only way to survive is by gathering all potential forces. Half-demons are a mighty branch, if they can break through Heavens Emergence, more majestic cultivators will appear. In the past, this race was capable of producing someone as great as Saint Nuwa, the same can be repeated in the future. We need someone this strong to bring us hope. She elaborated.

I understand now, you have been searching for a method. Was Grandpa Yu part of your plan? Feiyun asked.

He was a failed experiment. She admitted.

Do you know that your failed experiment caused him to go insane and kill his own family? He asked.

She paused for a moment before responding: Worth it.

Worth it?

Sacrifices are necessary for the greater cause. She said.

Is that why you sacrificed billions in Aquamoon just to bait out the descendants of the foreign invaders? He asked courageously.

If I didnt do so, the conference could have marked an end for the human race. Billions for a chance of survival, it is worth it. She resembled a young maiden yet her voice carried absolute conviction.

In reality, he didnt think that there was a problem with her decision either and would have made the same choice.
