Chapter 960 The Apocalypse Era

Kunlun Peak

"Wandering souls, where can they find peace? In the land of the Five Elements, at the peaks of the Four Extremes, and as far west as Kunlun, they can be resurrected to mend the heavens!"

As the snow fell softly, a special person arrived on the endless Immortal Ruins—no, it shouldn't be considered a person! Because the person who arrived was without spirit or soul, with a muddled consciousness and a dilapidated body; the term "walking corpse" would be the most fitting description.

"The Land of the Five Elements!"

"The pinnacle of the four extremes!"

The dilapidated body looked around in confusion. There were five other peaks around the mountain where it was located, and they happened to occupy the five elements.

As for the four cardinal directions, the wind and thunder rage here, and the sun and moon shine together.

It perfectly embodies the nine spiritual attributes of the Spirit Awakener.

"Live! Live!"

The broken body climbed towards the peak once again. The Demon Lord's will had been worn down, and the will of the millions in Nancheng had gradually dissipated after taking revenge. Only Jiang Yuan relied on a wisp of obsession to control the Demon Lord's body.

Earth was transformed into a planet according to the highest standards, so the Kunlun Ruins, which were once the highest, are now tens of thousands of feet tall. And this height can only be reached step by step by the broken physical body.

Since the end of the battle in Nancheng, he had been wandering aimlessly in the world for forty-two days. After death, people usually return to the body after three sevens and die after seven sevens, let alone a lingering attachment. Therefore, his time limit was forty-nine days. If he could not find a way to live within this final deadline, he would have no chance of surviving.

"live!"

With no energy left, the physical body began to climb the Kunlun Immortal Ruins, known as the pinnacle of heaven. Without any tricks or shortcuts, they could only move upwards step by step.

After forty-five days, the mangled body was reduced to nothing but flesh, all its clothing destroyed by the power of the five elements.

Forty-seven days, his body, battered by wind and thunder, was riddled with holes.

Forty-nine days later, a horribly mutilated 'corpse', beyond description, lay on a mere ten-square-meter mountaintop after enduring the test of time.

However, someone was already waiting there!

"Alas, once so full of vigor, now I am utterly dejected!"

Waiting atop the mountain was a girl of about twenty years old. Her words of utter despair were incredibly real, for the body lying before her had lost all its spirit and essence; all that remained was a wisp of obsession that had brought this pitiful puppet to the broken body.

Even though the physical body was no longer conscious, it still tightly gripped a wooden puppet in its hand.

"Save her!"

The puppet slipped, along with the Soul of Mending the Sky and the Holy Blood.

"She confessed that she has already lost everything and cannot lose you too!" The girl grabbed one of the corpse's corners and pulled it into the prepared array. After walking through it, she went back to pick up the puppet and sighed, "I can only help you preserve her body here. If you have the ability one day, perhaps there is still a chance to save her!"

"Thanks!"

...

The fifth year of the Tianqi reign

From the moment of its birth, the battlefield had a unified time, with the day of its birth designated as the year zero of the Apocalypse, and the Imperial Star officially declared the beginning of the Apocalypse Era.

"Buyuan, your mother said you won't get dinner if you don't go help!"

A little girl with pigtails walked into the room and was fuming at the handsome young man who was stretching on the bed.

"With only a few customers a day, we might as well close down sooner!" The young man lazily turned over and continued sleeping.

"Ah, get up!" The girl with pigtails reached out and grabbed the young man's pigtails, trying to get him up.

The young man said nonchalantly, "With so little strength, you've been slacking off in your cultivation again!"

With a loud crash, the sound of a plate shattering came from downstairs. The girl immediately exclaimed, "Oh no! Those guys are causing trouble again!"

"Go away, don't disturb my sleep!" The young man seemed used to it and continued to sleep without any reaction.

"You stinky Bu Yuan, you don't even know why your mother picked you up!"

Only a four or five-year-old girl ran downstairs angrily.

Hearing the little girl run out, the young man sat up in bed and listened intently to the sounds downstairs. Although he was just listening, he felt as if he were there, seeing everything that was happening downstairs.

"This former saintess has now fallen to the level of a menial servant. It's truly heartbreaking. She would be better off marrying my young master. Even if she's not his wife, it would be a hundred times more comfortable than washing dishes here!"

A man dressed in modern clothes overturned a table and was now standing on a bench, shouting arrogantly into the small shop.

"One table, fifteen low-grade Holy Spirit Crystals! One chair, three low-grade Holy Spirit Crystals! Plus labor costs and lost wages, one low-grade Holy Spirit Crystal per minute!" The woman with the headscarf wasn't angry. Instead, she stood aside and let the other party damage the tables and chairs, only announcing the required compensation amount as the other party damaged them.

"Bu Yao, I'm warning you, don't be stubborn and ask for trouble. If it weren't for your looks, do you think my young master would even look at a slut like you!" Another person was about to step forward and attack Bu Yao.

"You bastards, you dare to come back? Didn't I beat you enough last time?!"

A petite figure descended from the sky, and with a few punches and kicks, she sent several burly men sprawling on the ground.

"Jiang Xiaoxiao, stop hitting her!"

Bu Yao immediately tried to stop her, but unfortunately, the person had already been beaten to the ground. She sighed and said, "Jiang Xiaoxiao, I'm already struggling to make ends meet this month, and you're just making things worse for me!"

The little girl gave a soft, childish snort, then stepped on one of the burly men's hands and threatened, "Quickly compensate my family for our belongings, or I'll hang you up and beat you today!"

"Tsk tsk, I never thought that you, Bu Yao, who were so arrogant back then, would produce such an unruly child!"
