CHAPTER 257: CHAPTER 244: SHAKE THE WATER OUT

At that time, Hu Lie searched for a long time in the area his father mentioned and finally found the entrance to the Secret Realm. Just as he was about to enter, he ran into several high-level cultivators who severely injured him, which led to the events that followed.

After recovering this part of his memory, Hu Lie made a prompt decision—he would continue to search for Master Sheng’s body, and once he broke free from the restraints of the Demon Beast, he didn’t believe Lin Tiantian could still control him!

On their way to the Secret Realm, Hu Lie and Ye Xiaoxiao discovered that the Human Clan had also found it. At the entrance of the Secret Realm, there was also a group of high-level cultivators standing guard.

Hu Lie and Ye Xiaoxiao were unable to force their way in and could only wait secretly.

Several days later.

The Human Clan broke through the restrictions at the entrance and found a huge Medicine Garden inside, filled with Treasure Medicines. However, the Secret Realm was not stable, and those who entered could not exceed the Divinity Transformation Stage in their cultivation.

After discussing, the ten major factions of the Righteous Alliance decided to send twenty people from each faction to explore the Secret Realm.

Hu Lie, proficient in the art of disguise, secretly targeted a Sect, killed two Disciples, and then he and Ye Xiaoxiao disguised themselves as the two Disciples and infiltrated the Medicine Garden.

The Human Clan only knew that there was a Medicine Garden here, but they did not realize that the Spiritual Medicines on the surface were just for show. The true core of the Medicine Garden was actually Master Sheng’s body!

Master Sheng, being a ginseng of ten thousand years, contained incredibly astonishing Spiritual Power. Most of the herbs around were nurtured by Master Sheng.

While others were eagerly picking herbs, Hu Lie took Ye Xiaoxiao and sneaked into the core of the Medicine Garden.

But Master Sheng’s body was very well hidden, and they searched for a long time without finding it.

Just then, they heard noises and immediately hid.

The person who came was Lin Tiantian.

As the reincarnation of Master Sheng, Lin Tiantian naturally had a connection to her own body.

She was instinctively led to a certain place, and Master Sheng’s body also revealed itself automatically.

Having reincarnated as a human, this body was originally left behind as a contingency by Master Sheng to aid her human incarnation in cultivating to become an immortal.

It was only natural for Lin Tiantian to take back the body at this moment.

But!

Hu Lie and Ye Xiaoxiao did not see it that way.

They were extremely angry, feeling that Lin Tiantian not only used her blood to scheme against Hu Lie, but was also trying to steal Hu Lie’s ten-thousand-year ginseng.

Watching Lin Tiantian about to merge with Master Sheng’s body, Hu Lie couldn’t hold back anymore and jumped out, snatching away Master Sheng’s body.

After altering his appearance, Lin Tiantian did not recognize him. After a chase, she failed to catch up and ultimately took it as her own bad luck.

Overjoyed at obtaining Master Sheng’s body, Hu Lie immediately had Ye Xiaoxiao act as his protector while he swallowed the ginseng on the spot!

But!

He did not achieve a breakthrough; instead, he was poisoned and almost died!

He barely suppressed the poison, but was left in a weakened state.

Ye Xiaoxiao accompanied him as they searched everywhere for a cure, and the two shared hardships, facing life and death together—it was quite a touching scene.

At the same time, they came to the conclusion again that the poison was another of Lin Tiantian’s schemes!

This woman must have recognized him early on, so she deliberately left the severely poisonous ginseng for him!

Such a vicious heart is rare in the world.

Hu Lie searched everywhere for an antidote, but all was in vain.

In the end, he became ruthless. Believing he wouldn’t survive, he couldn’t let Lin Tiantian live either, or else, this cruel woman would definitely harm Ye Xiaoxiao.

Thus, Hu Lie secretly left Ye Xiaoxiao and went up the mountain to find Lin Tiantian.

He was frail and severely injured; he looked quite pitiful.

Lin Tiantian originally didn’t want to see him, but Hu Lie claimed over and over that he realized his mistakes, and now, grievously injured, he only wished to see Lin Tiantian one last time.

In the end, Lin Tiantian softened her heart and went out to see him.

Hu Lie then said he had something to talk to her about in private and lured Lin Tiantian down the mountain.

Afterwards, in Lin Tiantian’s astonished gaze, Hu Lie, partly for revenge and partly unable to control his craving for her blood any longer, forcibly sucked her blood.

This act of bloodsucking was significant.

Hu Lie discovered that Lin Tiantian’s blood could actually alleviate the poison in his body!

Hu Lie directly sucked the majority of Lin Tiantian’s blood and immediately regained his full strength, even surpassing his previous peak.

Realizing the great use of Lin Tiantian’s blood, he promptly kidnapped her.

He took Lin Tiantian to meet Ye Xiaoxiao, who was shocked at first glance, even showing a hint of heartache.

Hu Lie quickly embraced Ye Xiaoxiao, sweet-talking her and explaining that he brought Lin Tiantian only because he thought her blood would be very useful.

Ye Xiaoxiao believed him, her tears turning into laughter, and their affection for each other deepened. The forcefully seized Lin Tiantian just wanted to curse!

Afterwards, Hu Lie took Lin Tiantian to the Demon Clan. The Demon Clan conducted experiments with her blood and found that it was tremendously beneficial to them.

And so.

Lin Tiantian was locked up; the Demon Clan fed her various types of Spiritual Medicine day and night, then extracted her blood. She became a human-shaped Spiritual Medicine!

Finally, after many years of torment, Lin Tiantian could no longer endure. Seeing she was no longer of any use, the Demon Clan threw her into the Demon Abyss. At the bottom of the Demon Abyss, Demonic Qi swarmed everywhere, and it was near impossible for mortals to survive.

Yet Lin Tiantian desperately wanted to see the people of Ling Tian Peak again. Hence, driven by a sliver of obsession, she made her way out of the Demon Abyss.

Determinedly, she headed towards the Divine Martial Sect.

However, she didn’t get far before encountering cultivators of the Human Clan.

By that time, the conflict between the Human Clan and Demon Clan had already reached a fever pitch.

Upon sighting Lin Tiantian, the Human Clan cultivators saw her as a great threat and immediately killed her with a single sword strike.

Just like that, Lin Tiantian died.

And in the end, she never got to see her Master and fellow senior and junior disciples whom she so desperately wanted to meet.

All these years, the people of Ling Tian Peak had also been frantically searching for Lin Tiantian’s whereabouts.

But they never managed to find her.

In their whole lives, they were never to meet again.

Lin Tiantian died amidst despair and pain.

As for Hu Lie, after gaining Master Sheng’s body and Lin Tiantian’s blood, he finally broke free from the shackles of a Demon Beast and became the only Divine Beast in the Human Realm.

He also went all out in assisting Ye Xiaoxiao with her cultivation, and she too consumed quite an amount of Lin Tiantian’s blood.

After the gateway to immortality opened, the pair ascended to the Immortal World, living a carefree life.

This lengthy dream thus came to an end.

Shi Nian opened her eyes.

She took a deep breath.

And another deep breath.

Having personally experienced Lin Tiantian’s despair and frustration before death, now these emotions incessantly entwined around her.

Despite having gone through three fragments, it took Shi Nian a long time to calm down.

Clenching her teeth, her first reaction was to rush to find Lin Tiantian!

The little junior sister usually seemed so clever!

But in the book, she actually showed tendencies of being love-struck!

If she hadn’t been softhearted, would Hu Lie have been able to kidnap her???

Being softhearted towards a scumbag is a one-way ticket to death, isn’t it?!!

No way, she had to shake Lin Tiantian awake, to shake all the foolishness out of her head, lest she follows the same tragic path as in the book!
