Chapter 594

~6 min read 1,110 words

"My dear sister, and the most important treasure in my heart."

"Ei, I love you..."

The space began to tremble and collapse, and Makoto's soul also began to turn into petals and drift away.

Ei reached out her hands in despair.

"Makoto! Don't go! I beg you!"

"You cannot be so cruel! You cannot leave me behind!"

"I'm sorry! I still don't have the courage, I beg you, don't go!"

"Makoto..."

But this time, Makoto did not answer Ei's call again.

Ei's pupils dilated as she stared at the petals that were gradually disappearing. Suddenly, as if she had grabbed a straw of hope,

she grabbed Lumine beside her.

"Lumine! You are a cultivator! You are from Shushan!"

"I beg you! I don't want to lose Makoto! I haven't even told her myself that I love her too!"

"I beg you to save her! I will give you anything you want! Please!"

But Lumine just turned her head to the side, unable to bear it.

She was skilled in the sword arts of attack, but...

The soul was not something she was skilled in.

If Jiang Yan were here, perhaps it would be possible, but...

Suddenly, Paimon's whole body burst forth with a radiance like the stars.

It lit up this dark space that was about to collapse.

"Paimon..."

A glimmer of hope ignited in Lumine's eyes. Paimon practiced arts and spells; perhaps, she had a way...

No!

She definitely had a way!

"It's up to you, Paimon! Help Ei!"

Lumine knew the pain of losing a blood relative all too well.

Paimon nodded seriously, without answering.

This was the first time Paimon had been so serious.

She didn't have much confidence either, only vaguely remembering that the Mantra of Purifying Heaven and Earth had incredible divine power.

Although she had only heard the incantation from Jiang Yan and had not studied it deeply.

But...

Perhaps she could try!

"Heaven and earth are natural, filth is dispersed; the mystery within the cave, the vastness of the Great Origin."

"The mighty spirits of the eight directions, make me natural; the talismanic command of the spiritual treasure, proclaim to the nine heavens."

"Ganluo Dana, the cave's profound mystery; slash demons and bind evil, save ten thousand people."

"The Central Mountain Divine Mantra, the jade text of the Primordial Beginning; recite it once, dispel illness and prolong life."

"Pressing upon the five sacred mountains, the eight seas hear the news; the demon kings bow their heads, guarding my carriage."

"Fierce filth dissipates, morality lasts forever!"

"By the order of Taishang Laojun, act with urgency!"

"Decree! Take refuge, Great Heavenly Venerable who captures demons and dispels filth!"

As Paimon finished reciting the incantation, a mysterious power that transcended Teyvat's ability to bear it descended upon this place, penetrating everything.

A faint milky-white light bloomed on Paimon's body.

And this shaking space solidified in an instant.

The Eight Great Divine Mantras of Taoism were each immortal arts when taken apart, and the Mantra of Purifying Heaven and Earth was naturally the same.

The power of each divine mantra was something that those who were not immortals could not fathom.

Strictly speaking...

It was a kind of power of the Dao; what one thought and imagined became reality!

This was an incantation that could both save the world and destroy it.

And now...

Paimon couldn't save or destroy the world, but preserving Makoto's remnant soul was no problem!

355. To save Makoto, to save Inazuma, one must cultivate!

The nearly shattering space was fixed within the world.

Makoto's soul, which had just dissipated and vanished, was condensed once again; time seemed to be flowing backward.

Paimon gritted her teeth and persisted until Makoto's soul was condensed again, then hurriedly took out a jade talisman Jiang Yan had given her to store it.

After doing this, Paimon gave Lumine a forced smile.

Then she fainted completely.

Lumine hurriedly picked up Paimon, noticing that the True Qi in her body had almost disappeared, and channeled her own True Qi, which had just recovered a little, into her body.

Only then did Paimon's tightly furrowed brows gradually relax.

"Lumine, Paimon, she..."

Although Ei was desperate to know Makoto's situation, since Paimon had helped, she still asked about Paimon first.

"Nothing major."

After checking, Lumine breathed a sigh of relief.

"Just True Qi exhaustion. She'll be fine after going back to rest and adjusting her spirit and energy."

Ei breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly asked again:

"Then Makoto..."

"She's fine too."

Lumine smiled and added:

"Her soul was stored by Paimon in a Dharma treasure. This is a Dharma instrument the Sect Master gave her to nourish the soul."

"Inside, Makoto will be fine."

At this, a smile finally appeared on Ei's face. She looked at Lumine solemnly and said in a deep voice:

"Thank you all. In the future, no matter what happens, whether I can do it or not, I will do my best to help you."

Lumine spread her hands and said helplessly:

"Don't be too happy yet. Paimon's Mantra of Purifying Heaven and Earth only condensed Makoto's soul, but she is still in a dissipated state."

"If she leaves the jade talisman now, she will definitely disappear immediately."

Ei became anxious again.

Seeing that today had been full of good news, with the Shogun changing her mind and Makoto returning,

was it still impossible to avoid the outcome of Makoto leaving?

"Don't worry too much."

Lumine shook her head and said softly:

"Paimon and I are not skilled in soul-related arts, but Shushan has soul masters."

"Senior Sister Lisa and Hu Tao are both cultivators who play with souls. If they are willing to act, I suppose there won't be any problems."

"At worst, there is still the Sect Master. As long as the Sect Master helps, Makoto will definitely be fine."

Ei's eyes lit up, but the next moment she felt a bit dejected.

"I am not a Shushan disciple. With a figure like the Shushan Sect Master, why would he care about me? I also don't have the qualifications to ask him to help..."

"This matter isn't impossible to handle."

Lumine blinked and said with a grin:

"Aren't you going to Shushan to become a disciple later? With your strength, after switching to the immortal path, you should at least be an Elder."

"The Sect Master values geniuses. As long as you become part of the Shushan family, the Sect Master won't mind helping you."

"Besides, isn't Senior Sister Miko also in Shushan? The relationship between Senior Sister Miko and the Sect Master is... *cough cough*, quite good." ===== CHAPTER 595 =====
