Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 614A – Just a Dream, Just a Play

“Demon Sovereign, you have gone too far!”

The Buddhist Nation Sovereign angrily shouted. The phantom of the Buddhist Nation descended. As it did, phantoms of Buddha statues began to appear, their chanting scriptures reaching into the heavens.

Qin Yu laughed out loud. “He offended me, so why can’t I kill him? If Buddhist Sovereign is unhappy, then you can ask me to return his life!”

Hum –

The projection of the Holy Palace started to shine with a radiant light, as if a great sun were rising. The terrifying aura was capable of crushing everything. The two great supremes…the all-out battle was imminent!

At this time, the air suddenly froze. This wasn’t a figurative description but truly freezing. A faint white layer of frost appeared, covering the world. Snowflakes fell down from the skies, causing everything to become blurry. All sounds vanished and peace returned. One could even hear snowflakes falling to the ground.

A figure walked out from the wintry snow. Her white dress fluttered in the wind. She was a beauty capable of causing the downfall of nations, like a goddess that had strolled out from a drawing.

“Enough.” Her voice was pleasant to hear, but the chill in the air left everyone’s thoughts bound in ice. No one dared to even think of blaspheming her.

Qin Yu looked at her and his blood-flushed eyes returned to normal a little. He took a step forward and the frost that covered his body was instantly smashed apart.

“Shen Yuanyin. You are finally willing to meet me.”

This was the first time that master of Nineheaven Mirrormoon Palace, the most mysterious new head of the Immortal Sect, had officially appeared in front of everyone. Her beauty was glorious beyond description, as if all the joy and love in this world was concentrated within her.

She came to a stop. Her eyes were faint as she said “Demon Sovereign, the past cannot be changed, so why be so obsessive about it?”

Qin Yu furrowed his eyebrows together. “Shen Yuanyin, in the Sea of Purgatory you promised me that you would resolve the puzzle in my heart.” He took a deep breath and said, “Now, tell me, where is Ning Ling?”

Shen Yuanyin’s eyes fell. “I didn’t want to ever speak about this matter again, but since the Demon Sovereign cannot forget, allow me to bring this to completion.”

She raised her head and looked straight ahead. “Ning Ling is I and I am Ning Ling. Everything that occurred in the past was in order to cultivate the Sublime Lost Emotion Code. I sealed my consciousness into samsara and went to another land to gain experiences. Now that my true self has awakened, this world only has Shen Yuanyin. The existence known as Ning Ling no longer exists.

“Demon Sovereign, you have learned the truth about everything today so allow the dust of the past to be scattered in the wind. Stop indulging in the past so that you do not harm yourself or others.”

Whether it was the Immortal Sect or Demonic Path, those that heard this were stunned. This explanation exceeded all of their imaginations.

Qin Yu frowned. He looked closely at her and shook his head. “I don’t believe you. I don’t believe a single word you say!”

Shen Yuanyin lifted a hand pressed forward. Five fair fingers opened up. Qin Yu’s heart began to vigorously beat within his chest. His blood was like boiling water, rapidly flowing through his body. The demon visage behind his back appeared on its own initiative. Its eyes suddenly opened and its low demonic laugh echoed through the world.

“I was the one who bestowed to you the demon blood that runs through your body. As the original owner, I can naturally galvanize it…Demon Sovereign, you should believe me now. Stop deceiving yourself.”

Qin Yu stared at her with wide eyes. Then, he spat out a mouthful of blood and he staggered backwards. You Qi hurried forward to support him.

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty!”

The Demon Envoy moved in front of Qin Yu. 5000 True Demon Guards and 3000 Holy Nether Guards rushed out like a tide in all directions, protecting Qin Yu within.

“Samara reincarnation, gaining experiences in the mortal world of flame and smoke…what a good Immortal Sect, what a wonderful Sublime Lost Emotion Code. I struggled so hard for all these years but it turns out that my goal was actually nothing but a dream!” In just a few short breaths of time, Qin Yu’s voice became incomparably bitter. He laughed out loud, his voice echoing outwards. In the blink of an eye, his full head of black hair turned bone white.

You Qi’s complexion changed color as she screamed, “Qin Yu, don’t scare me, don’t scare me!”

Qin Yu looked at Shen Yuanyin and closed his eyes. “I’m tired. You Qi, let’s leave.”

“Good. Your Majesty, please rest first. We will immediately leave.” You Qi’s heart hurt so much she could barely breathe. She clenched her teeth and said, “Lord Demon Envoy, you should understand the Holy Monarch’s intent.”

The Demon Envoy stepped forward. “Immortal Sect, please deliver our monarch from here!”

The Buddhist Nation Sovereign’s eyes were deep as he traded looks with the Nether Domain Master. To the Immortal Sect, this might be a once in a lifetime opportunity.

But before he could say anything, Shen Yuanyin lightly said, “Pass down my command. Bring the Demon Sovereign out of the Immortal Sect.”

She turned and looked at the two other heads. The cold chill in the air became even heavier.

The Buddhist Nation Sovereign and the Nether Domain Master’s complexions changed. They immediately fell silent.

Hualala –

The Demonic Path troops started to move. They were like a black cloud that quickly floated away. Shen Yuanyin stood there calmly, not a single fluctuation on her face.

“Palace Master, perhaps you should give us an explanation.” The Buddhist Nation Sovereign asked.

Shen Yuanyin lightly said, “In the Sea of Purgatory, I once received his graciousness.”

She turned and stepped away, vanishing from sight.

The Buddhist Nation Sovereign humphed and the space around him began to crack. Only then did one see that the space surrounding him had been frozen.

The Nether Domain Master used a similar method to break Shen Yuanyin’s imprisonment. When he looked towards the direction she left in he gradually frowned.

The two supremes had dignified expression. A terrifying thought immediately appeared in their hearts.

But after thinking about it they suppressed the thought. They were well aware of how fearful the power of the Sublime Lost Emotion Code was. If Shen Yuanyin had cultivated it to large success, she could no longer be called a ‘human’.

…

Great Yan Empire, Thistle Capital.

The entrance to the Immortal Sect suddenly opened and lines of Demonic Path troops marched out. Their imposing momentum was cold and dreadful.

Above a black, purple, and golden imperial carriage, You Qi looked at Qin Yu who was leaning against her shoulder. Her eyes were filled with sorrow. She could imagine what sort of suffering Qin Yu was experiencing right now.

Starting from the land of exile, he had constantly struggled to become stronger in order to chase after her shadow. To find Ning Ling, to live together with her, no one besides him knew how much pain he had endured.

In this world there were no gains without reason. As radiant and wonderful as Qin Yu appeared from the front, there was an equal level of misery and tempering that occurred in the back.

Finally, he had become the Demonic Path’s Holy Monarch, a supreme existence of the world that stood upon the pinnacle of society. So he arrived at the Immortal Sect to take back Ning Ling and fulfill his promise to be with her forever, never to be separated again.

But in the end, all of this was nothing but a dream. Strictly speaking, there was no Ning Ling in this world. She was nothing but a samsara, a little section of memories in a person’s mind that they recalled as ‘tempering themselves in the mortal world’.

The hard work, the struggle, the chase, the earnestness…all of it was like a bubble that popped in the bright light.

To have one’s hair turn white in the blink of an eye…this was a degree of sorrow that could kill. It was a sadness that originated from the soul and marrow, something that could not be extinguished and could only be withstood.

When You Qi first heard the truth about Ning Ling, she had given birth to a tiny bit of joy. But, that sliver of joy had thoroughly vanished. Instead, she would rather be forever unable to approach Qin Yu than see him suffer what he did today!

She couldn’t help but hug Qin Yu tighter towards her chest. She didn’t say anything, just holding him there. She was sad, a sadness that came from being unable to comfort this person who was dear to her heart.

The silent Demonic Path troops refused the questions that came from the Great Yan Empire and directly left Thistle Capital.

The Far East Cavalry followed from afar. They had clearly received a reminder and didn’t come over.

The Demon Envoy glanced at the imperial carriage and gently sighed. Everything that happened today was far too brutal to the Holy Monarch. He hoped that Qin Yu would be able to forget it with time…

He reached out a hand. Black light flowed along his fingers. But, just as he was about to open the transmission portal, a change suddenly occurred.
