Ling Zichen’s Conditions

It would evolve from the Ancient Life Tree to the Ancient Gold Tree. Its prior strength would be restored when it was on the Sea God’s Island. Moreover, the resurrected tree would be even stronger than the Ancient Gold Tree of the past. The crown of the tree would grow and break above the surface of the water.

‘That’s really awesome!’ Tang Wulin was overjoyed in his heart.

At the same time, the Ancient Life Tree told him the reason behind its evolution was due to the tremendous life energy channeled by him. The life force from devouring the abyssal creatures was extremely nourishing to the Ancient Life Tree because it came from a different plane. The higher the rank of the abyssal creature, the higher the quality of the life force. The Ancient Life Tree needed more of such energy for its evolution. Hence, it informed Tang Wulin of its needs.

“I’ll certainly try my best.” Tang Wulin saluted the Ancient Gold Tree respectfully. Then, he leaped up and shot to the surface of the water and hovered in the sky.

Just as he was about to fly toward Shrek Academy’s main building, he discovered something different.

He noticed in astonishment that the initially barren lake shore had turned lush. Moreover, the lush green, lively plants growing and filled with life source were actually the familiar Bluesilver Grass.

His martial soul was the Bluesilver Grass. One could imagine how excited he was, especially when he realized that the Bluesilver Grass would sway toward him upon sensing his aura.

If one were to look down from the sky at present, one would see the enormous Sea God Lake surrounded by a faint blue ring. As compared to the ordinary Bluesilver Grass, the color of the Bluesilver Grass here was a clear, vivid blue. Illuminated by the sunlight, the grass blades reflected a silver tinge.

It felt amazing. The refreshing, moist air carried a faint scent of the flora. The Sea God Lake’s shore was as magnificent as a fairy land in the mortal world.

Tang Wulin was deeply touched by the scene. At the same time, the emotions in Tang Wulin’s heart grew more resolute.

‘I must protect the continent regardless. I must protect Shrek so that the evil demon’s clutch won’t plague our side anymore.’

He dialed his soul communicator.

Soon, a familiar voice was heard coming from the other end of the call.

“What’s up?” The question was simple and direct.

“I’m back, where are you?” asked Tang Wulin.

“You’re back? Is everything alright at the frontline?” The inquiring voice from the other end of the soul communicator sounded deeply concerned.

“I’m alright. Let’s talk more when we meet.”

Five minutes later, Tang Wulin appeared before Ling Zichen.

The numerous Tang Sect and Shrek powerhouses had all left so Ling Zichen was left in charge of Shrek City. With her around, the Soul Circuit Defense System in the city was activated, so there was no need to fear any surprise attacks.

“What? You want to take the Eternal Heaven? No, I don’t agree.” Ling Zichen’s voice was raised eight pitches instantly. She worked hard to change her behavior, to become a gentler person whenever she was with Tang Wulin.

Yet, when she was provoked, she immediately returned to her normal self.

Tang Wulin heaved a sigh. “Zichen, listen to me. This is not just a matter of our Tang Sect and Shrek anymore. It’s a catastrophe that’s about to erupt on our continent. The Eternal Heaven is perhaps the only weapon that can destroy the Bloodriver Godkiller Great Array. We must destroy this array regardless. We’re duty bound to do it, and we’ve no time to lose.”

The Eternal Heaven was also under this scientist’s control! Ever since the Eternal Heaven was acquired for research purposes, Ling Zichen made a qualitative leap in the development of soul technology. After all, the Eternal Heaven was the fruit of the hard work and effort put in by the countless numbers of scientists. It inspired her greatly.

“What if you still can’t break it with the Eternal Heaven?” said Ling Zichen in objection. She refused to part with it! She really could not bear to part with it.

The more she studied the Eternal Heaven, the more she learned about the mysteries and wonders of this device. Such a colossal amount of energy was condensed into such a tiny fixed soul ammunition. Just how profound was the science behind it then? To her, the Eternal Heaven would serve its function the most in her scientific research.

Moreover, the device was not considered a weapon in the scientists’ eyes but a piece of art. It was an artistic product of science.

Ling Zichen had spent half a month sleeping next to it when she first acquired it. Most nights, she would find herself waking up from her sleep after having laughed too hard.

At present, her eyes reddened with grief upon learning that Tang Wulin was going to take the Eternal Heaven away.

“I’m sorry, Zichen. We need it. Even if it’s proven ineffective in the end, we must give it a try at the very least. Otherwise, out of the massacre, the Bloodriver Godkiller Great Array will yield a god. By then, the entire continent will be destroyed! We have no other choice. I understand how you feel. For the sake of the entire continent, we really don’t have any other choice. Please get ready.”

Ling Zichen looked at him with a burning gaze. Crystal clear tears were pooling in her eyes. She did not have any intention to move.

Tang Wulin opened his mouth in an attempt to say something. Yet, he could not bear to do it upon looking at her.

Just as he made up his mind to urge her again, all of a sudden, Ling Zichen threw herself into his arms and bawled aloud.

“I don’t want to, I don’t want to part with it! Do you know that the technology behind the Eternal Heaven contains the labors of my parents’ efforts? I feel like I can see my father and mother when I look at it. It feels like they are protecting me. I really don’t want to part with it. Please don’t take it away. I beg of you.”

Tang Wulin choked up and his eyes reddened immediately. He hugged Ling Zichen gently. He understood her feelings all too well.

The memories of Tang Wulin’s parents haunted his dreams for many nights after Tang Ziran and his wife disappeared in the past. He had missed his parents badly during the time. Shortly after he met with them, they were again separated when his parents died. Had it not been his biological father who brought him a wisp of hope, he might have suffered from a mental breakdown.

On the other hand, Ling Zichen’s parents were already gone. The Eternal Heaven was her only refuge.

Therefore, Tang Wulin understood how Ling Zichen felt at the moment. Yet, what could he do then?

He patted her back gently in an attempt to pacify her emotions. “I’m sorry, Zichen. I’m sorry, but we have no other choice. Your parents would have hoped that it could protect the continent in the future too when they developed the Eternal Heaven. Perhaps, where I’m taking it now is the best place for it. Maybe, we may never find another way to make another Eternal Heaven. At the very least, using this large-scale destructive weapon in this war is better than having it explode on the continent beyond our control. Even if the Eternal Heaven is gone, the technology left behind by your parents will still be here. That’s what they’ve left behind for you.”

Ling Zichen’s body was convulsing non-stop. However, she felt especially safe when she was leaning on his chest. It was a feeling, an ineffable feeling.

All of a sudden, she raised her head and looked up at Tang Wulin.

“On two conditions.”

“Go ahead.” Tang Wulin heaved a sigh. At this very moment, there was no reason for him to disagree with Ling Zichen’s conditions.

“Firstly, I’m going with you. The Eternal Heaven’s power can be amplified the most only if I launch it.”

Tang Wulin nodded without the slightest hesitation. “Sure, I promise you.”

Ling Zichen took a deep breath and said, “Secondly, I want to draw some of your blood for research purposes. You must consent to the procedure.”

“My blood?” Tang Wulin looked at her in puzzlement.

Ling Zichen said, “Apart from soul technology, I perform research in the field of biotechnology as well. I need some of your blood. Will you consent to that? An outstanding genius such as yourself certainly carries some special traits in your genes. I’d like to do some research on it.”
