Chapter 36: The sadness of the Purple Lightning Qilin

Prev List Next

“Ah! You…..The sword in your hand is…..” The purple light disappeared and the voice cut off. Feng Xiao looked up with a doubtful gaze, looking at the qilin’s surprised eyes.

“Does it recognize the Xuanyuan Sword?”

Feng Xiao relaxed after thinking about it for a bit. This qilin that survived for several hundreds of millions of years should know the past and present, so how could it not recognize the Xuanyuan Sword that shook the three realms? Feng Xiao very cleanly replied, “Xuanyuan Sword!”

Obtaining Feng Xiao’s affirmative response, the qilin instead calmed down and coldly said, “Human, you should be here for my essence blood!”

“Yes! The Xuanyuan Sword has been sealed and needs qilin blood to unseal it!” Although he was surprised by the other side’s knowledge of the Xuanyuan Sword, his heart filled with hope. Since it knew the Xuanyuan Sword’s condition and his reason for coming, perhaps it would take the initiative to help. After all, it was a beast of justice.

“Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha……” The qilin suddenly gave a strange laughter that rang in Feng Xiao’s ears like thunder. He could clearly tell that there was a sadness that could not be concealed in its laughter.

“If…..If you came a day earlier, perhaps I would have helped you for free, but right now, what does the Xuanyuan Sword’s seal and its master have to do with me? Why should I solve a problem that isn’t related to me!”

The Purple Lightning Qilin’s words were like a bucket of cold water falling on Feng Xiao. He spoke in an indignant voice ,”Since you are a qilin, you naturally know that the continent will soon suffer a large problem. At that time, the life forms on the continent you have protected will die out. Do you not hope for the Xuanyuan Sword to release its seals and fight this disaster with its greatest strength!?”

Feng Xiao spoke in a righteous voice, but his heart couldn’t help turning weak. He had heard these words from the Heavenly Dragon Emperor, but it would be a shame to his family if they were false.

“He, he ~ Human, even if you release the second seal, how sure are you and how much time do you have to release the other five seals on the Xuanyuan Sword? The legend say that each seal is harder than the last! To use a millenium of my cultivation for this impossible goal, why don’t I just keep this power to deal with the disaster!”

“Using a thousand year of cultivation?” Feng Xiao was surprised.

“Big brother Feng, the qilin blood refers to the qilin’s essence blood. Qilin’s will only form a single drop of essence blood after a thousand years of cultivating and every time they lose a drop, they will lose a thousand years of cultivation.” Xuanyuan Wan’er’s voice came from his mind. The voice was somewhat dispirited as it gently explained everything to Feng Xiao.

“So…..it’s actually like this. No wonder it wasn’t so willing to even give a single drop of blood.”

“Then why would you have helped me yesterday?” Feng Xiao did not give up as he asked this question.

“Because…..yesterday, I still had my child. Today…... I no longer have one and can’t give birth anymore…...The qilin inheritance, there will be a wait of another hundred million years……”

A broken hearted aura began to fill the air as the Purple Lightning Qilin’s giant body actually began to tremble…...

With its grief, the qilin began to slowly narrate everything. The child it had bred over a hundred million years was gone and the pain was so strong that even the qilin could not handle it. It needed to let everything out and the human in front of it had now become the only thing it can let everything out to.

The breeding of a qilin took a hundred million years and it would take a hundred million years to pa.s.s down the qilin inheritance. With the birth of the new qilin, it represented the destruction of the previous qilin. The reason why the Purple Lightning Qilin was willing to help Feng Xiao was because it was giving birth today. When the qilin child had inherited the qilin power, it would disappear from this world, so it didn’t might giving away a few drops of essence blood.

During the half hour time of hatching the qilin egg, the adult qilin was at its weakest point, only have a tenth of its regular strength.

After around an hour, when the qilin egg was hatching. Everything proceeded smoothly, but at the last three minutes before it successfully hatched, the situation changed…..The Purple Lightning Qilin’s power decreased by quite a bit and the barrier it created became weaker before directly shattering…..

Dual Headed Illusory Eye Nether Wolf! This was a high grade Divine Beast that had a high intelligence and a greedy heart. It had waited for several tens of thousands of years to finally swallow the qilin’s egg to transform into a Sacred Beast! If had waited for the Purple Lightning Qilin’s weakest moment to charge through its barrier and try to swallow the qilin egg.

The Purple Lightning Qilin was caught off guard and could only watch as the netherworld aura surrounded the egg. The life that was about to be born, under the corruption of the death qi, its vitality was cut off.

In the Purple Lightning Qilin’s sadness, it wildly attacked the Dual Headed Illusory Eye Nether Wolf that tried to swallow the qilin egg. This was how a Sacred Beast with a tenth of its strength began to fight a top grade Divine Beast…...

The fight had lasted around ten minutes and Feng Xiao could not imagine the damage of the fight, but he knew that the one who won was…..the Purple Lightning Qilin. However, its egg could no longer hatch. As for the loud roar that almost instantly killed Feng Xiao, it was the dying cry of the Dual Headed Illusory Eye Nether Wolf.

“G.o.d d.a.m.n, having one tenth of your strength and still killing a top grade Divine Beast…..” Feng Xiao’s sweat began to flow as he had a new understanding of the strength of a Sacred Beast.

Listening to the Purple Lightning Qilin’s narration, Feng Xiao looked at the white egg that was five meters away from him, only seeing a layer of dark death qi surrounding it. Twenty meters away, there was the corpse of a giant dual headed wolf, which was the Dual Headed Illusory Eye Nether Wolf that the Purple Lightning Qilin hated.

Feng Xiao gave a sigh before looking at the silent Purple Lightning Qilin with a look of pity before looking at the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand with the same look…..He knew that he could not accomplish his goal. The next qilin would be born a hundred thousand years later and at this moment, the only qilin on the continent was about to have its power dispersed.

“Sorry, Wan’er……”

“Big brother Feng…..It’s fine big brother Feng. Perhaps, this is my destiny……” Xuanyuan Wan’er also knew that her hope had been cut off, so she spoke in a soft sobbing voice.

Wan’er’s sobbing voice made Feng Xiao’s heart hurt and his hand tightly clenched together…..

“I…..am a person that does not know how to give up. Whether it is reality or in Rebirth, it will be the same!”

“Xuanyuan Wan’er searching several hundred million years to find me, the guidance of my dead adopted father, and becoming the Xuanyuan Sword’s owner, they are all telling me that I have a mysterious mission in life, so how could I fail in the beginning! If I can’t even pa.s.s the first test, how could I face my future problems! How could I make it up to Xuanyuan Wan’er, the Xuanyuan Sword, and my adoptive father!”

Feng Xiao suddenly looked up with a firm look in his eyes. He looked at the Purple Lightning Qilin’s eyes and said, “How can I make you give me your essence blood?”

“Sorry, human, this is impossible, unless my child can be born right now…..” The qilin said in a firm and low spirited voice.

“Then…..” Feng Xiao’s eyebrows twisted, “Is there a way to save your child!”

The Purple Lightning Qilin wanted to shake its head, but seeing Feng Xiao’s determined face, it gave a sigh and said, “There is one way to save it, but it’s no different from not having a method at all!”

Feng Xiao was excited when he heard this and he anxiously asked, “What is it? No matter how difficult, I will definitely use all my strength to achieve it!”

The Purple Lightning Qilin shook its head with a bitter smile, “Human, I appreciate your determination and courage, but some things can’t be achieved with just determination and courage. The only thing that can save my child was lost in time and s.p.a.ce several billion years ago……”

“What!? How could it be like this…..What is it!” Feng Xiao understood why the qilin said it was no different from not having a method at all.

“There is a thing that contains the chaos of the heaven and earth. It can accomodate all things and can fuse all things. It can eliminate death and illness, it can give vitality and hope, it can reverse the order of the world…..”

“Ah? It’s talking about…..could it be…..” Feng Xiao suddenly heard Xuanyuan Wan’er’s surprised voice from his mind.

“This thing is a kind of blood and there has only been a single person that has created this kind of blood. His name is Pangu and that blood is called Chaos Blood!”

“Wh…..What?!” Feng Xiao and Xuanyuan Wan’er called out in surprise. This was….too much of a coincidence.

“Big brother Feng…..The heavens are looking out for you!”

“......”

The Chaos Body was such a strong existence. However, why did «Rebirth» determine that he had a Chaos Body?

Faced with Feng Xiao’s surprised reaction, the Purple Lightning Qilin continued to say, “Only the Chaos Blood can negate the nether qi surrounding the egg, then pouring new life force into it…..Human, do you understand? Alright, you have been here long enough. Now, I will send you back. Also, don’t come to try find me again. I have my own mission and cannot give up my own strength for the hope of others!”

“Ah, ah! Wait, wait!”

Feng Xiao almost couldn’t help breaking out in laughter as the feeling of going from h.e.l.l to heaven almost made him float up. Feng Xiao calmed his mind and looked at the Purple Lightning Qilin with a serious gaze as he said, “If I can save your child, then will you give me your essence blood?”

The Purple Lightning Qilin revealed a helpless smile. He wanted to advise him not to do anything unnecessary, but seeing his eyes filled with confidence, its heart skipped a beat and filled with hope…...

Could the Xuanyuan Sword’s master give me a miracle?

The Purple Lightning Qilin gave a deep exhale and slowly said, “If you can truly save my child, I will promise to any request you have!”

The qilin’s word did not need to be doubted. Feng Xiao nodded and walked over to the qilin egg covered in the gray qi.

Feng Xiao’s movements made the flames of hope in the qilin’s heart burn brighter. It held its breath and watched every move that he made.

“Big brother Feng, blood! It will definitely succeed!” Xuanyuan Wan’er’s voice was filled with an excitement that could not be concealed.

“Un!” The only hope depended on a single action! Standing in front of the egg covered in death qi, Feng Xiao slowly reached out his right hand and thought in his heart, “Blood!”

A drop of red blood came from Feng Xiao’s finger and fell onto the qilin egg…...
