Chapter 297

"Destroyed?" Shen Qingli stared in shock at the white-haired Queen Mother of the West.

It's hard to believe her father would actually issue such an order—this is the Changshui Shen Clan.

"Not bad." The Queen Mother of the West nodded, "The Shen Ting cannot send troops down to garrison, so we can only destroy it directly."

The Queen Mother of the West also took out a destruction array plate engraved with Tai Jin, saying, "Once set up, it can directly send this place into the void turbulence, leaving no future trouble."

"What about here?" Shen Qingli wondered.

"In the future, it will form a spatial turbulence realm."

The Queen Mother of the West looked around; the area was quite large, so it couldn't be without impact.

But this is already the optimal solution that Shen Ting can achieve given that they cannot send someone down.

"Why seal the realm?" Shen Qingli didn't understand, "What happened? Will Sheng Long Tian no longer be able to ascend in the future?"

The Queen Mother of the West shook her head, "Uncertain; the sealing of the realm is a sudden spontaneous event of the domain itself, the Divine Lord can only sense that——it is related to the merging of the Western Realm into our Dao Ting, with a change in heavenly dao rules."

"No." Di Jin's voice sounded.

The Queen Mother of the West was startled! This voice, she was very familiar with it.

In fact, as early as when she saw Di Jin before the light curtain, she had recognized him.

But back then, separated by space, she still dared not be certain; now——

Seeing Di Jin walk out from the inner room, the Queen Mother of the West confirmed it.

"Your Majesty!"

The Queen Mother of the West flung herself to the ground in a full prostration!

The movement of her kowtowing could be felt outside the house.

Shen Qingli even felt a headache for her……

"Get up." Di Jin spoke.

But the Queen Mother of the West couldn't rise; her arms, divine form, and even her divine soul were trembling!

"Your Majesty, truly Your Majesty! They did not deny it, truly Your Majesty!"

The Queen Mother of the West had never imagined that Your Majesty actually still existed in the world.

She could clearly sense that the old Dao had already vanished!

However, Your Majesty after all had become the Holy Buddha of the Western Realm!

Perhaps this is the reason why, although the Dao has vanished, Your Majesty still remains.

"Alright." Di Jin sat down, "Get up."

The Queen Mother of the West let out a sob, yet transformed into a leopard-like existence and pounced at Di Jin's feet.

Shen Qingli was astonished; she hadn't expected that the Queen Mother of the West was not human—indeed, the fact that she could avoid the Queen Mother's sight by using invisibility grass already explained everything.

Di Jin let out a soft sigh, "How could you still destroy your own vitality?"

"No." The Queen Mother of the West's whitish hair instantly turned black and glossy again.

Shen Qingli sighed; the Queen Mother of the West's Dao was truly unique.

Its Dao is Di Jin.

"Leopard leopard," Jiu Li also felt quite emotional.

Who would have thought that the so-called righteous and formidable Queen Mother of the West would actually be just a furry creature?

The Queen Mother of the West, eyes red, glared at it! Because it's not "Leopard leopard"; it is the Queen Mother of the West.

"Get up and sit properly." Di Jin had the Queen Mother of the West come to the table.

The Queen Mother of the West changed a bit, only then returning to human form, yet she did not sit down.

"Your Majesty, you need to return quickly; your divine form can barely hold on."

The Queen Mother of the West keenly sensed that Sheng Long Tian was unsuitable for Your Majesty; his physical condition was poor, and he must return to the Divine Realm to recuperate.

The domain power of Sheng Long Tian would continually suppress and erode Your Majesty's divine power, for he is indeed too strong, yet also too weak.

If he were not weak, Sheng Long Tian's domain power could do nothing to him, but he happens to be extremely weak, so the domain power can easily drain him.

"Not bad." Shen Qingli could also faintly sense Di Jin's condition, "Xi,"

"Just call me Xi Xi." the Queen Mother of the West interrupted.

Shen Qingli: "... Xi Xi?"

"Mm." The Queen Mother of the West nodded, "Your Majesty is called that way; you are the wife of Your Majesty, and also my master."

Shen Qingli looked at Di Jin, feeling that the generational hierarchy was all messed up.

Di Jin nodded, but he refused the idea of returning immediately.

"No need to rush back." Di Jin looked toward the door, "Sending it to the void turbulence may be a method, but it cannot solve the root problem."

The evil vine had already emerged from the Era Bronze Gate; exiling it casually into the void turbulence would only give the evil vine more opportunities to recover quickly.

"But Your Majesty, your body,"

"No problem." Di Jin interrupted.

"I have an idea."

Shen Qingli thought it over carefully.

But she wasn't very confident!

So she looked at Di Jin and said, "Help me strategize."

"Good." Di Jin had no objections, already presenting an attentive listening posture.

The Queen Mother of the West gazed, still finding it hard to believe that the once lofty Your Majesty, who had not a trace of mortal air, would actually have such a moment……

Indeed, living long leads to witnessing even more unimaginable things.

"I want to refine the Shen clan's land into my own small world, then store it and take it with me."

Shen Qingli wasn't acting on a whim; this idea came when she saw that over half of the Shen clan members were dead or wounded, and several gentle aunts had perished in the catastrophe.

Sheng Long Tian is in the lower realm; she cannot look after it.

This time, she just happened to return, thereby averting the Shen clan's extermination crisis.

But what about next time?

And what about the time after that?

Although one shouldn't be a jinx, it can't be that the Shen clan runs into trouble every time.

But Shen Qingli really can't rest easy!

The Longwater Shen Clan is truly where she feels the warmth of home.

She truly cannot bear to lose this great family.

"The last time I faced Zhao Yue, I could faintly draw on the power of Shen Ting and the Four Seas and Eight Wastelands. I think I can bring the Shen clan up there." Shen Qingli recalled that feeling.

At that moment, she actually felt that if she wished, she could refine the Four Seas and Eight Wastelands and Shen Ting above and below.

Since the Divine Realm is possible, what's impossible about Sheng Long Tian?

"Not likely." Di Jin said, "You can draw on Shen Ting and the Four Seas and Eight Wastelands, even refine them, because you have inherited my Dao lineage; you are essentially the Lord of Shen Ting."

"Sheng Long Tian, however, is different; it is another small world. Moreover, there is the Xuanti Continent here. That place is actually a fragment of an extremely ancient continent. Sheng Long Tian's connection to it is not subject to the rules of the Divine Realm."

Shen Qingli fell silent for a moment, then "... I still want to try."

"You can try, but if you fail, you might suffer backlash." Di Jin analyzed, "The rules here are fundamentally different from Shen Ting's; a clash could destroy your current foundation—the Nine Meridians and Twenty-Eight Star Mansions would be destroyed."

Shen Qingli looked at him and saw solemnity in his eyes.

She understood that this was not an exaggeration meant to persuade her.

At that moment, she hesitated.

After all, this was the savings she had painstakingly accumulated...

Moreover, having been crippled before, she knew all too well the feeling of having grand ambitions but lacking the power to enact them.

But—

She isn't afraid!

At worst, she can start over.

"There's an opportunity, isn't there?"

Shen Qingli asked with bright eyes!

Di Jin, looking at her still high-spirited eyes, was always captivated by her dazzling, shining heart.

"Yes." Di Jin nodded.

Shen Qingli then smiled, "I'll give it a try."

"Go." Di Jin did not stop her.

Her cultivation path had actually always been forged by herself.

Cang Pei said he was her master, but in truth he wasn't really.

He merely gave her an opportunity; how she got to this point has always been her own choice.

But just as Shen Qingli stepped out of the room and leapt above the Shen clan—

"Crack!"
