Chapter 1211: Chapter 1211: Enlightenment

“I… AM enlightened…”Zi Yue’s body trembled. She looked at the palm before her and at the blurry figure behind it that seemed to contain the might of the heavens. Waves of emotions stirred in her heart.

It was as if Wang Baole’s words were like a huge rock that had fallen into her heart, stirring up huge waves that drowned her. At the same time, the images buried deep in her memories were revealed, they filled her mind.

She saw her true form. It was just a doll. A doll that was placed on a shelf in a little girl’s room. It was lifeless, had no breath, and had no thoughts, she didn’t even know when she had gained consciousness.

She only knew that she was looking at a little girl. Other dolls were also looking at her. They were like an old ape or a little tiger.

They were all looking at her, until one day, the little girl put them into the world she had drawn..

And so, they had real life. In the world she had drawn, they became the first gods… but unlike the other gods, she did not know why, but she always felt insecure.

Perhaps it was because she had been alone for too long, or perhaps it was because of that figure back then, that gaze, that sentence, that made her feel terrified, and that was why she lacked a sense of security.

She had always been afraid that one day, she would be erased. That was why, in her fear, she had given her hair to anyone who she felt could protect her life. This habit, even if the world changed time and time again, and the universe restarted again.., it continued to exist in her world.

And unlike the old ape, she and the Little Tiger had inevitably entered reincarnation.

After that, she would wake up in a muddle-headed state. She would forget too many things from the past, and forget many images. The only thing she remembered was that she had no sense of security in this universe. The only thing she remembered was.., her past habits.

That was why she had the seed star Dao.

She remembered that this cultivation technique… was not something she had obtained by killing her lover. Instead, it was something that had been passed down in the mysterious ruins of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace, that Ruin… was her cave abode from an unknown era.

She had created the Dao of stars.

“I remember now…”Zi Yue mumbled. She had woken up many times since she had entered this universe, but she had never been able to recall all her memories like she was now.

“You… are the person from back then, the little white deer, and the soul that had pushed open the door and walked out of master’s bedroom!”Zi Yue lowered her head, giving up all resistance as she spoke bitterly.

Wang baole looked at Zi Yue calmly and retracted his right hand. He stood in front of Zi Yue and looked around before speaking calmly.

“Since you have recalled your past life, are you willing to use half a sixty-year-cycle for me?”

“Only half a sixty-year-cycle?”Zi Yue was taken aback. She raised her head again and looked at Wang Baole. She had thought that she would definitely die this time, and the recovery of her memories made her lose all will to resist. She knew that if it was someone else.., perhaps she could still struggle a little. However, against the person before her, there was nothing she could do.

It didn’t matter if it was in the past or now.

“A hundred years from now, I will give you your freedom,”Wang Baole said slowly. Zi Yue’s breathing quickened. Her hope was rekindled. She looked deeply at Wang Baole and lowered her head.

“Why a hundred years?”

Wang Baole didn’t say anything. He just stood there and looked calmly at Zi Yue. His gaze made Zi Yue fall silent for a moment. She sighed softly and raised her right hand to grab at the air. Instantly, a life that had been split up by her.., in the distant ruins at the edge of the ring, a speck of dust materialized and formed a thick purple fog. It whizzed toward the area. It approached instantly and circled around a few times.

As if hesitating, Wang Baole’s expression remained the same. He didn’t rush her, as if he had enough patience to wait. After the purple fog circled three times, as if Zi Yue had made up her mind, the purple fog instantly surged and fused into Zi Yue’s body, it caused her body to instantly become more solid, and the fluctuations of her cultivation and aura increased significantly.

“As you command,”Zi Yue said softly after she was done.

Wang Baole remained silent. He looked at Zi Yue, his eyes as calm as ever. Zi Yue fell silent again. After a long while, she gritted her teeth and formed another seal. Soon, the third life that she had released earlier.., the third life that was hidden in the void was summoned back by Zi Yue under the immense pressure of Wang Baole’s gaze and fused into her body.

Her aura became even stronger, and her soul was completely intact.

She didn’t dare take the risk, especially when faced with Wang Baole. She didn’t think that she had a chance of succeeding, because that was her inner demon. At the same time, a hundred years was a very short period of time. She believed that Wang Baole wouldn’t lie to her, that was why she didn’t dare hide any thoughts. Under Wang Baole’s gaze, she finally retracted the other two lives that she had released.

Now that she was complete, Zi Yue took a deep breath and bowed to Wang Baole.

“Let’s go.”Wang baole retracted his gaze. He didn’t bind Zi Yue and turned to walk forward. The more he didn’t bind her, the more Zi Yue didn’t dare to act rashly. She silently followed behind Wang Baole, as he walked out of the core region and out of the rings, ripples appeared beneath Wang Baole’s feet outside the sinkhole.

As the ripples spread, the solar system emerged. Just as Wang Baole was about to step into it, Zi Yue hesitated for a moment before speaking in a low voice.

“Senior, is the old ape on the fated star? Is He Alright? Does senior know where Xiao Hu is?”

“The old ape is fine. I know Xiao Hu. He’s not bad either.”Wang baole replied calmly and stepped into the ripples. Zi Yue stared at the Solar System within the ripples, at the moon within, and sighed softly as they entered.

In the next instant, within the Solar System’s starry skies, as the ripples distorted, Wang baole and Zi Yue walked out one after another.

“Senior, what do you need me to do…”at this point, a complicated look appeared in Zi Yue’s eyes. She turned her head to look in the direction of the moon many times.

“I need you to suppress the gap in the ascending realm plate.”

“I can’t leave that place while suppressing it, right?”

“Yes.”Wang baole nodded.

“Senior, can you give me some time? I… I want to go to the moon…”Zi Yue said softly.

Wang Baole looked deeply at Zi Yue and nodded. Gratitude appeared on Zi Yue’s face. After bowing to Wang Baole, she turned and headed in the direction of the Moon. Her cultivation wasn’t ordinary to begin with, in the span of a few breaths, she had traversed the starry skies and arrived near the moon.

She was obviously hesitant here. After a long period of silence, she walked towards the moon step by step until she reached… The giant corpse on the moon, which was the cave where her husband was in this life.

The cave was originally quiet. The giant corpse was in a deep sleep and had not woken up. However, the moment the Purple Moon approached, it seemed to have sensed something. At the bottom of the cave, the giant corpse’s eyes seemed to be about to open as it let out an unconscious muffled growl, the growl grew more and more intense, to the point that the ground began to tremble.

Clearly, the giant corpse was about to wake up, and a storm began to sweep out of the cave and sweep through the area.

Zi Yue listened to the growl and felt the trembling of the ground. She was silent for a long time before she murmured softly.

“I’m sorry.”

The moment she said that, the ground stopped trembling, the growl stopped, and the ripples stopped spreading out. Only after a long time did a bitter sigh come from the cave.

“If you go, I… Don’t want to see you again in my life.”
