Chapter 2140: then translation of title

Ding! Saved the Ruthless Empress, accepted the Ruthless Empress as the seventeenth disciple!

The System's voice sounded, and Lu Xuan was slightly taken aback.

Next, the System transmitted the battle situation at the apex of the void to Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan furrowed his brows.

"Burning origin?"

He couldn't help but feel moved.

It's only because the Ruthless Empress's true body now is merely a coalescence of a single thread of will.

But the true body has paid a tremendous price!

Back then, he had seen the Ruthless Empress on the upstream long river, but her state was mysterious.

It cannot be called alive, nor can it be called dead.

One could say she exists within reincarnation, or alternatively, that reincarnation has trapped her.

This is the terror of reincarnation.

Although in the past, the Ruthless Empress cultivated the Reincarnation Dao, and with a single thought she mastered the reincarnation domain.

But the calamity of the Dao is like a skilled swimmer drowning in water.

In the final battle of the past, the Ruthless Empress was severely wounded, sank into reincarnation, and used the Reincarnation Dao to prolong her life.

But this comes at a cost.

The cost is immersion.

So, this separated true body, for the Ruthless Empress in her current state, also entails a great cost.

More importantly, the Ruthless Empress now activates a secret technique, linking the incarnation and the true body.

The incarnation gradually gains everything of the true body.

One proof, eternal proof!

This should be the method the Ruthless Empress found to break free from reincarnation's immersion.

So, this incarnation must not have any problems.

Otherwise, not only will the incarnation be lost, but it will also implicate the true body, and more importantly, cause the Ruthless Empress to sink deeper into the Reincarnation Dao.

However, Lu Xuan is somewhat curious.

"System, I have taken the Ruthless Empress as my disciple; then, is the synchronized cultivation that of the incarnation or the true body?"

The System said, "It's the incarnation's. The Ruthless Empress's true body now has no realm to speak of; having sunk into the Reincarnation Dao, it is united with the Dao."

Lu Xuan's eyes flashed with Divine Light, "Dao Unity?"

Many cultivators spend their entire lives seeking Dao Unity.

They want to achieve the Ruthless Empress's state.

But they don't realize that this cost is too great.

Upon careful thought, the Ruthless Empress's current sinking into reincarnation, with him present, is actually a good thing.

Thinking of this,

Lu Xuan slowly rose to his feet.

Xiao Nannan lifted her head and looked at him.

Lu Xuan rubbed her head, "Xiao Nannan, I'm going to take on a disciple; you wait here."

Xiao Nannan obediently nodded.

"Okay, I don't know if it's an older brother or an older sister."

Lu Xuan gave a light smile, "You'll find out soon."

Beside her, Tie Xiaoqing was somewhat excited.

"Lord Lu, could it be..."

She lifted her head to gaze at the apex of the void.

In the distance, Yun Zheng sent a mental transmission to Lu Xuan.

"Master, the Ruthless Empress probably can't hold on! I sense her aura of burning origin."

"Actually, I had already blocked the Empress back then, but she couldn't be stopped!"

"She just wants to prove herself."

Lu Xuan nodded, "I understand."

He could understand the Ruthless Empress.

After all, after emerging from the small world of the Lone Dust Empire this time, the Ruthless Empress's bearing gained a streak of ruthlessness.

Stronger than before!

Indeed, it makes him feel a bit heartache.

"Whoosh!"

With a thought of his will, Heaven-Piercing Spatial Power surged.

He instantly vanished from the spot.

He shot straight toward the apex of the void.

"Huh?"

"Destruction formation patterns?"

"Seal Heaven, Lock Earth?"

Lu Xuan gave a light smile; his current spatial attainment means this seal cannot stop him at all.

Yun Zheng watched Lu Xuan's back in the void, and a sigh of relief escaped her heart.

It seems the master had already foreseen this outcome.

Just to fulfill one wish of the Ruthless Empress.

Yes.

The master is omnipotent and omniscient.

The master is too kind to them.

In this life, she became a disciple of Venerable Lord Lu, gaining the greatest backing.

It's different from the previous life.

She also has the feeling of being truly pampered.

"Really good."

At the same time.

On the battlefield at the peak of the void.

"Boom!"

The Ruthless Empress burned her feeble origin power.

Countless strands of Divine Light, centered on the Ruthless Empress, burned fiercely without cease.

Like thousands of trees, flowers blossomed in profusion.

Each brilliant petal was filled with extremely rich divine radiance, extremely gorgeous.

Above her head now countless petals were blooming.

But it was only a fleeting splendor!

Even less than a breath, it extinguished.

Yang Jian stared dumbfounded.

The power each petal possessed was truly vast.

But it couldn't last long.

It was utterly a flash in the pan!

The Ruthless Empress's aura also reached an extreme.

But Yang Jian knew this peak state couldn't be maintained for long.

"Ruthless Empress, I am the master."

He was somewhat anxious.

The Ruthless Empress lifted her jade hand slightly, saying, "I'll send you out."

"No!"

Yang Jian shouted.

In this situation, does the Ruthless Empress still need to fight Elder Jing Shan and the others alone?

But he could do nothing at all.

The Ruthless Empress's jade hand, amidst the rain of light, blossomed like flower petals.

Hundreds of petals fell onto Yang Jian.

"Hiss!"

It directly wrapped Yang Jian up.

Elder Jing Shan watched the Ruthless Empress burning her origin, his eyes full of mockery and ridicule.

"Ruthless Empress, in your current state, you still want to send Yang Jian out? That's pure fantasy!"

The Ruthless Empress was silent, her exquisite eyes filled with absolute coldness.

Directly activate the Ancient Secret Technique!

In an instant, Yang Jian was wrapped in layers of Samsara petals, his form turning into a bolt of lightning.

"I'll borrow your Heaven's Mandate Origin for a moment."

The Ruthless Empress drew forth immense power.

Yang Jian's physical body was no longer visible!

"Hiss!"

In this Sealing Heaven and Severing Earth domain, a crack actually appeared.

Elder Jing Shan was somewhat shocked, "Can this even be done?"

You see, they had absolute confidence they could trap the Ruthless Empress.

But they never expected the Ruthless Empress could actually break open their domain.

Only then did they understand.

As it turns out, the Ruthless Empress could withdraw on her own.

But she did not leave.

Why?

Obviously, she wanted to annihilate them!

"Boom!"

Heaven Spring Ancestor slapped his big hand, trying to block Yang Jian.

"Whoosh!"

The River of Time and Dao Resonance instantly surged forth, and within the river a large hand suddenly condensed.

It blotted out the sky and covered the sun!

It grabbed toward Yang Jian in a single grasp!

But they weren't caught!

They brushed past each other!

Yang Jian's body fell like a meteor, sliding out from the rift in the field.

Boom—!

Heavenly thunder rolls!

Countless gorgeous petals fall!

After leaving the field, the speed at which these petals wither has greatly weakened.

Outsiders cannot see what's inside the petals.

Everyone was stunned.

Many Gu Clan and Longevity Clan members engaged in heated discussion.

"What is that?"

"How can it possess so much reincarnation power?"

"Could it be that the Ruthless Person Empress was defeated and knocked out?"

"Hahaha! I said, how dare the Ruthless Person Empress dare to oppose Elder Jing Shan and the others—has she gone mad?"
