We Agreed On Experiencing Life, So Why Did You Immortals Become Real?

Chapter 76: Soul Scattered into Nothingness? Let It Scatter

After Bai Ruxue swam past the Chunsong River and entered the Luo River, Gai Sanqiu and Wei Yuan indeed stopped pursuing her.

As mountain and water river gods, they could not leave their own territories.

Since that white snake had left their domain, they had no way to continue their enforcement.

”Both of you, please forgive my offense.”

Xiao Mo swept his sleeve, dispelling the black dragon, and bowed to Gai Sanqiu and Wei Yuan.

Gai Sanqiu and Wei Yuan stood up, looking at this mortal sage with complex expressions.

”Xiao Mo, you have accumulated a lifetimeʼs worth of incense and mountain-river fortune, yet in the end youʼve used it all on this white snake. Do you truly think itʼs worth it?” Gai Sanqiu asked.

Although Gai Sanqiu hadnʼt had much contact with Xiao Mo, only catching a distant glimpse of him when he came to the Chunsong River, he respected this man who had devoted his lifeʼs efforts to the people.

Xiao Mo smiled, ”As long as itʼs for something one cares about in their heart, then itʼs worth it.”

”You... with a mortalʼs body interfering in a demonʼs dragon transformation. You can stop us now, but what about later? The more mountain-river fortune you consume, the lower your realm becomes. This white python has extremely exaggerated talent, and who knows how many sects have already set their sights on her. When your mountain-river fortune is exhausted to the end, will your strength be comparable to a Nascent Soul cultivator? Can you really help her? Donʼt end up with your soul scattered into nothingness,” Wei Yuan advised as a final warning.
Xiao Mo nodded, ”I know, but helping even a little is better than nothing. Besides, this old man is going to die soon anyway.”

”Sigh,” Wei Yuan let out a heavy sigh, angrily waved his sleeve, turned around and left.

Gai Sanqiu said, ”Xiao Mo, donʼt let your soul scatter into nothingness. At least leave yourself a chance for the next life.”

Xiao Mo smiled and bowed, ”Mo will try his best.”

Gai Sanqiu also bowed to Xiao Mo, then finally merged into the river.

After the two mountain and water river gods left, Xiao Mo turned around and looked toward the direction of the Luo River.

Xiao Mo took a step forward, moving toward the sky above the Luo River.

Only this final stretch of the journey remained.

The mountain-river fortune should be sufficient.

”Rumble!”

Above the Luo River, thunder sounded again.

As Bai Ruxue swam to the middle section of the river, the thunder in the sky became increasingly violent, as if wanting to tear the entire sky apart with force.

”Another python snake traversing the river.”

A section of the Luo River water poured upward into the air.

This section of Luo River water seemed carved by knives and axes, with excess parts removed, finally forming the appearance of a woman.

The woman was named Meng Qianqian.

Legend had it that Meng Qianqian was the sister of the founding ancestor of the Qi Kingdom.

When the Qi Kingdom was founded, facing both internal troubles and external threats, Meng Qianqian married into Bei Mang as a political marriage to secure temporary development.

In Bei Mang, with her outstanding appearance, scholarly accomplishments, and eloquent speech, Meng Qianqian completely won the trust of the Bei Mang ruler.

The two countries ceased hostilities for a long time, and Meng Qianqian had indelible contributions to this but eventually the two countries went to war again. When Bei Mang forces invaded the Luo River, they encountered an ambush from Qi Kingdom.

The one who provided the intelligence was naturally Meng Qianqian.

The Bei Mang ruler died at the Luo River, and Bei Mang suffered a great defeat.

The Qi Kingdom ruler wanted to bring his sister back but Meng Qianqian said she had fulfilled her loyalty to Qi Kingdom, and now she should fulfill her duty to her husband.

Meng Qianqian threw herself into the Luo River, moving all the people, who built temples to worship her.

The Qi Kingdom ruler bestowed upon her the title of Luo River Water God.

”Your bloodline is quite good. I originally didnʼt want to block you, but duty requires it. Letʼs see if you can pass through,” the Luo River Water God said.

The Luo River Water God swept her sleeve, and over a thousand swords condensed from Luo River water shot toward Bai Ruxue!

Bai Ruxue coiled her long tail into a whirlpool, her scales bursting with dazzling white light, forcefully withstanding the first wave of attacks.

Sword blades sliced across the snakeʼs body, bringing up strings of blood droplets.

”How stubborn.”

Meng Qianqian lightly pointed with her fingertip, and the Luo River water flowed upward, forming a cage to trap Bai Ruxue.

The next moment, soldiers condensed from Luo River water, wielding long knives, sharp swords, and long halberds, charged toward Bai Ruxue.

Bai Ruxueʼs pupils suddenly contracted, and four bulges beneath her belly suddenly split open.

With a ”ripping” sound, four dragon claws broke through the scales!

”Hiss!”

The white snakeʼs roar shattered the water prison, and those thousand soldiers formed from Luo River water were all shaken into water droplets.

”Growing claws before transforming into a flood dragon?”

Meng Qianqian was quite astonished.

She could sense that this white snakeʼs bloodline talent was extraordinary, but she hadnʼt expected it to reach such a degree. Truly rare indeed.

Bai Ruxueʼs body gradually turned white, like the sign before a snake sheds its skin. Beneath that translucent snake skin were brand new dragon scales!

The newly born dragon scales bloomed with brilliant luster, as if carved from gemstones.

”Roar!”

Bai Ruxue no longer hissed like a snake, but roared like a dragon.

She kept swimming forward, the countercurrent Luo River water crashing against Bai Ruxueʼs body.

Layer after layer of shed snake skin gradually peeled away from Bai Ruxueʼs body.

”Splash!”

Bai Ruxue crashed through Meng Qianqianʼs body formed from Luo River water and rushed toward the rear section of the Luo River.

Meng Qianqian turned around, the Luo River water gradually condensing to repair the half of her body that had been shattered.

Meng Qianqian hooked her index finger, and chains of Luo River water bound toward Bai Ruxue, trying to lock her limbs, snake head, and vital spots but Bai Ruxue lifted her head and spat out white lightning, shattering them all.

”Meng Water God, we have arrived!”

Just as Bai Ruxue was about to break free from Meng Qianqianʼs obstruction, three elderly men appeared in the sky above.

Seeing their official robes and the rich mountain-river fortune surrounding them, Meng Qianqian bowed respectfully, ”Thank you for your trouble, three prefects.”

”Donʼt mention it.”

Wang Wei smiled, then looked at the white python that had already swum 150 li through the Luo River and shouted loudly, ”Evil beast! Why donʼt you surrender!”

Wang Weiʼs scolding voice became tangible under the enhancement of mountain-river fortune.

Like the ”Hm” and ”Ha” of the Door God generals, a golden character ”Capture” shocked toward the white python that had already grown four limbs.

”Roar!” Bai Ruxue turned her head and let out a dragon roar, shattering that golden ”Capture” character.

”Before even reaching the river mouth, this white python is already so domineering,” Zhuge Qing said in surprise. ”Everyone, letʼs resolve this quickly.”

”Right!”

Wang Wei and Xu Shangao responded in unison.

The three simultaneously threw out their prefect official seals.

Three jade-green official seals manifested as enormous dharma forms, with ”Wholehearted service to the people, standing between heaven and earth” carved at the bottom.

”Fall!”

The official seals locked onto the white pythonʼs aura and pressed down toward her like three great mountains.

Seeing these three official seals, Bai Ruxue knew she couldnʼt block them and could only use all her strength to swim forward.

”Suddenly, like a night spring breeze, thousands of trees and ten thousand pear blossoms bloom.”

Just as these three official seals were about to suppress Bai Ruxue, an elderly voice drifted over leisurely.

In an instant, over a hundred pear trees bloomed out of thin air, supporting these three official seals so they couldnʼt fall another inch.

An old man stood with his hands behind his back on the highest pear tree, coughing lightly a few times.

When they saw the old manʼs face clearly, all three menʼs hearts jumped in shock, ”Teacher?”
