Chapter 1803
Lying in Lu Xuan's embrace, the Ruthless Empress felt a tranquility she had never known before.
It was a feeling she had never experienced.
It was as if she saw that day when all the foreign races were utterly slain.
She could also lie like this in Lord Lu's embrace.
If that were the case, it would be wonderful.
The enemies in the Remnant Realm were already immensely powerful, let alone the Great Universe.
At this moment, Lu Xuan was examining the Ruthless Empress's memories…
The battle in the Remnant Realm back then could be described as shocking heaven and earth, making ghosts and gods weep.
Numerous powerful foes descended from beyond the Remnant Realm.
Their purpose was to seek him.
The Ruthless Empress slaughtered numerous powerful foes with a single strike.
But the enemies were too strong, and their numbers were extremely great.
In that battle, the Ruthless Empress's true form was annihilated, the Reincarnation Ancient Court fell, and the many forces under her rule, such as the Crimson Sky Dynasty, were also destroyed.
At the brink of death, the Ruthless Empress activated the Reincarnation Secret Technique.
Using reincarnation, she preserved the hope of "life".
Her true body was buried amidst the ruins.
That was precisely the bronze ancient coffin Lu Xuan saw in the River of Time back then.
That battle even shattered the River of Time.
Thus the Reverse-flowing River was born.
Within it, the Time Dao Resonance was mottled and complex, filled with numerous fragmented Dao principles.
Even to this day, it remains extremely terrifying.
Lu Xuan also saw Yun Zheng's silhouette.
Yun Zheng descended from the Great Universe to come aid the Ruthless Great Emperor.
When the Reincarnation Ancient Court fell, Lu Xuan saw at the entrance of the Remnant Realm several immensely powerful silhouettes appear.
They included humans, the Gui Clan, the Gu Clan, and powerful beings of other races.
However, their phantasms were mottled and dim, and Lu Xuan could not immediately recall their existence.
"Lord Lu, I'm sorry, I failed to hold it."
"I'm sorry..."
This is the scene when the Ruthless Empress's consciousness was hazy.
She was still blaming herself.
"If my cultivation could advance further, perhaps this wouldn't have been the result."
The Ruthless Empress muttered to herself.
Lu Xuan couldn't help but sigh, holding the Ruthless Empress tighter.
The Ruthless Empress's delicate body trembled slightly.
Everything was worth it.
She once longed so deeply to gain Lord Lu's acknowledgment.
Now she has obtained it.
In fact, all along, in Lord Lu's presence, she has been like a child who never grows up.
After all, Lord Lu radiates boundless light, illuminating past and present, his divine might towering, spanning the River of Time.
Lu Xuan continued to examine the Ruthless Empress's memories.
Next, in the Ruthless Empress's memories appeared a long darkness and endless emptiness.
That was after she activated the Reincarnation Secret Technique, having nearly exhausted all her remaining strength.
The Reincarnation Ancient Court, some of the forces under its supreme rule, were preserved.
All were drawn into reincarnation.
In the endless ages, the Ruthless Empress remained in this deathlike state.
Within the bronze ancient coffin, a strand of Divine Light clung to her true body, undying and imperishable.
This is truly why the Ruthless Empress is immortal.
This is a strand of Origin Dao Resonance that Lord Lu once gave to the Ruthless Empress.
I never expected it to take effect.
Next, a trace of the Ruthless Empress's will awakened.
Yet it was like the first rising mist, like morning dew, observing the changes of the Reverse-flowing River without any emotion.
She saw the birth of many longevity races.
Her origin consciousness has remained asleep.
Next, Dieyue acted, using the supreme secret art to fish out that strand of will and then merge it into the Butterfly World.
Dieyue discerned the Ruthless Empress's identity and began scheming to let the Reincarnation Ancient Court revive and the Ruthless Empress awaken.
……
Seeing this, Lu Xuan couldn't help but feel somewhat dazed and sigh.
One must say, Dieyue's scheming is extraordinarily heaven-defying.
At that time, the Heaven's Mandate Nine Slashes seemed to go with the flow, but in fact part of the reason was to let the Reincarnation Ancient Court revive.
Burning the two great Heaven's Mandate Origins, aiding the rise of the Reincarnation Ancient Court.
It should be known that the Reincarnation Ancient Court salvaged by Dieyue is essentially an evolution of Henren Nudi's will.
And Henren Nudi's current body is merely a division of will.
Both the flesh body and the original will are inside the Bronze Ancient Coffin!
The Reincarnation Ancient Court differs from other ancient Dao lineages; it is a Dao lineage existing between 'existence' and 'non-existence'.
Henren Nudi with a thought brings forth world evolution; with a thought of extinction, seas turn to fields.
And the power of the Origin of Heavenly Mandate is what makes this 'existence' manifest.
This also shares a subtle similarity with the entire Butterfly World.
Lu Xuan couldn't help but recall some storyteller tales about 'simulators' he had seen.
One could say that the left and right wing worlds of the Butterfly World, with all beings endlessly reincarnating, are constantly in simulation.
Dieyue is seeking a path to survive against the Deceit Clan, Gu Clan, and Longevity Clan!
Thinking of this, Lu Xuan couldn't help but sigh, 'These years, Henren Nudi and Dieyue have truly sacrificed too much.'
He gently stroked Henren Nudi's long hair, 'Things will get better from now on, everything will get better.'
'Mm.'
Henren Nudi tilted her snow-white neck slightly and nodded.
'According to Dieyue's plan, naturally after the Nine Great Origins of Heavenly Mandate unite, we can seize control of the entire Butterfly World.'
Lu Xuan said thoughtfully, 'However, for now we start from the Chaotic Star Sea. We have already made a good start.'
Henren Nudi said, 'Now the Jade Pool Star Region has been upgraded; we need to act quickly.'
Lu Xuan nodded.
With a thought of his, an incredibly clear Azure Ancient Treasure Pearl appeared in his palm.
'Hiss!'
It is indeed the Reincarnation Pearl!
Its surface is extremely smooth, reflecting myriad brilliance, faintly showing the illusory images of ancient palace gates, powerful holy lands, and boundless starry skies, like the sea embracing all rivers.
Henren Nudi's beautiful eyes flickered.
She sensed the incredibly terrifying power contained within the Reincarnation Pearl.
Comparable to the Origin of Heavenly Mandate!
Moreover, it is extremely pure Reincarnation Power, requiring no further purification on her part.
It was completely tailor-made for her!
Henren Nudi couldn't help but feel somewhat moved.
This must be the power personally refined by Lu Zunzhu for her.
In order for her to quickly regain her strength!
'Lu Zunzhu is truly great!'
Henren Nudi murmured inwardly.
Lu Zunzhu always silently does these things.
Protecting the Dao Resonance that makes her immortal, she can't even recall when Lu Zunzhu implanted it into her body.
'Thank you, Lu Zunzhu.'
Lu Xuan smiled and transmitted the Refining Spiritual Technique to Henren Nudi.
She chanted silently, and the Spiritual Technique in her hand transformed.
In an instant, it was refined!
With a thought of hers, the Reincarnation Pearl rose and fell before her, strands of Reincarnation Power continuously flowing into her body.
At the same time, she sensed other wonderful uses of the Reincarnation Pearl.
The Reincarnation Pearl can allow the Reincarnation Ancient Court to truly descend!
Although, the Reincarnation Ancient Court in the Chaotic Star Sea now is only a small part of its former peak.
Dieyue also only salvaged an extremely small portion.
But it is already enough!
Henren Nudi smiled charmingly, reluctantly leaving Lu Xuan's embrace, then said, 'Lu Zunzhu, I have begun.'
Lu Xuan nodded.
Henren Nudi raised her jade hand, began to activate the Spiritual Technique, and the Reincarnation Pearl sparkled with brilliant light.
She prepared to let the Reincarnation Ancient Court truly descend with the aid of the Reincarnation Pearl.
