Chapter 217 Past Life and Present Life

At the same time, Ye Li felt as if her body was simultaneously engulfed by flames and glaciers.

Not only that, every inch of her skin looked like it had been roasted by fire.

She tried to get up, but she couldn't muster any strength at all.

Moreover, she could feel that her body was now possessing its own consciousness!

It was as if her corpse had come back to life!

At this moment, she was quite satisfied with the purgatory she was in. In fact, she wanted to enjoy the blood of those disciples to her heart's content, just like those shadowy figures outside.

Ye Li sensed danger and immediately began to silently recite the Heart-Cleansing Mantra.

I had only read a few lines when a familiar yet unfamiliar voice rang out.

"I've actually become a Daoist cultivator? Hehehe..."

Ye Li instantly became alert, "Who! Who's speaking!"

"You are me too."

While chanting the Heart-Clearing Mantra, Ye Li tried her best to suppress the opponent's counterattack, "Our fellow disciples are in imminent danger, why don't you destroy this place with me!"

"What? A Dao cultivator's life is a life, but the lives of my Wuqi clan aren't?"

"If sacrificing one person is necessary to bring another back to life, then such a resurrection is inherently wrong."

"Is that so! I think you should restore your memories before you decide!"

"..."

At the same time, a memory that didn't belong to her entered her mind.

Sometimes Xie Sixing appears before my eyes, and sometimes Si Wujin.

And then there are the Wuqi people...

The Wuqi Clan is no longer just three cold, impersonal words; they represent her family, friends, and Si Wujin.

Her mind felt as if it were about to explode with excruciating pain, and the sounds around her seemed to be far away.

"The Wuqi Clan are your own people, why are you helping outsiders?"

"Come, let us revive our people and become the masters of this world!"

Just as "Ye Li" lowered her guard, she was suddenly taken away from control of her body.

"you!"

Ye Li used her soul cultivation power to reclaim her body and coldly said, "There should never be a ruler in this world. You've lived long enough!"

"No!"

With a low, unwilling roar, Ye Li regained her mobility.

She immediately sat up from the altar.

But the formation didn't stop. After having those memories, she paused for a moment before calling out Xie Sixing's name.

"You know how to destroy this formation, please help me."

Her tone of voice was neither like her nor like her, and Xie Sixing unusually refrained from joking with her.

With a low, enigmatic laugh, the soul mirrors appeared in Ye Li's hand.

Ye Li already knew how to use it, and in the blink of an eye, the four mirrors merged into one.

The next second, a blinding white light shone from her hand.

Not only in the Dark Realm, but the entire Tianmen Sect, and even the whole land, were bathed in light, making the night as bright as day.

The dark figures screamed in agony upon contact with the white light and vanished without a trace.

Ye Li subconsciously reached out to the shadowy figure, but in the end she did not stop it; instead, she clenched her fist.

Si Wujin's mask disappeared when it came into contact with the white light, revealing his face covered with black patterns.

He had spent a thousand years, only to have it all fall apart at the last moment; one can only imagine his madness and rage.

"You! Do you even know what you've done?!"

"Si Wujin".

Ye Li's three simple words startled Si Wujin. He took a step back, a look of tension appearing on his face. "You've regained your memories? You're here to help me!"

"No."

She looked at Si Wujin, "I'm here to kill you."

Si Wujin's madness intensified. "I've done so much for you, and you actually want to kill me!"

"If you hadn't colluded with Shaluoru to manipulate me with witchcraft, I wouldn't have been an accomplice to evil. Not only that, for the past thousand years you've been trying to make me your puppet, killing me time and time again. Is this what you've done for me?"

"Enough!"

Si Wujin's face was contorted with rage. "You've been bewitched by Xie Sixing, blinded by him! You like him, but don't forget, he's the one who killed... uh..."

Si Wujin looked down at the bloody hole in his chest, then stared at Ye Li in disbelief, "You..."

Ye Li put the mirror away. "We can calculate it slowly. I'll take your life first."

When Si Wujin fell, his eyes were filled with resentment, and his body turned into a pile of yellow earth the moment he hit the ground.

Ye Li looked at the shattered earth and sand, but there was no relief in her eyes.

At that moment, she remembered everything and knew everything.

...

A thousand years ago, the Wuqi tribe was not called the Wuqi tribe, but the Wuqi village.

The area is blessed with beautiful mountains and clear waters, and the villagers live in harmony.

One of the women had grown up here since childhood, working from sunrise to sunset with her parents.

Her mother fell seriously ill and was on the verge of death. After searching everywhere without success, she remembered a legend.

A supreme god lives on Twilight Cloud Island. If we can obtain his help, my mother will surely recover.

So she embarked on her journey.

The hardships and dangers she encountered were numerous, but she simply couldn't find the island.

On her way back, she found a bird that was charred all over and took it home to care for it carefully.

When the bird woke up, it spoke in human language, saying it wanted to repay her and would take her to Twilight Cloud Island.

It turned out that what she had picked up was none other than a divine beast, the Fire Phoenix.

The fire phoenix is ​​reborn from the ashes every hundred years, but it was too playful and forgot that it was going to be reborn. When it went to the human world to buy snacks, it got lost in the mountains and was lucky enough to be found by a woman.

With the help of the Fire Phoenix, the woman found Twilight Cloud Island and met the legendary Supreme God.

The god was very different from what she had imagined; he said he could grant her one wish.

She said, "I want to cure my mother's illness."

The god initially disagreed, saying that defying fate would inevitably lead to backlash.

But she refused to give up and kept pestering him for months.

Finally, the Fire Phoenix secretly stole the secret to immortality and gave it to her.

She immediately went down the mountain and saved her mother using the method described above.

At first, everything went smoothly, and several years passed in the blink of an eye, until an outsider came to the village.

The woman's mother was hospitable and invited him to stay at her home for a while.

Everything changed from that moment.

He unexpectedly came across the book on the secret to immortality, and then used the art of divination and stratagems to change the feng shui of the village in order to create an immortal race.

At first, the woman disagreed, but for some reason, after spending some time with the man, she found herself involuntarily trusting and believing in him.

It's like losing one's mind.

It was only a few months on Twilight Immortal Island, but hundreds of years had passed in the mortal realm. By the time the gods learned of this, the Wuqi Clan had already wreaked havoc on the land.

He wanted to end the Wuqi Clan, which should never have existed, but the woman had already changed.

He realized she was under the influence of evil magic, so he took her to the island and helped her regain her senses.

As they spent more and more time together, a delicate dynamic developed between them. In order to save her life, they made a pact of life and death.

But because of this agreement, they all paid a price.

The woman, unwilling to see her family perish, was bewitched by Si Wujin. The gods also suffered divine punishment, and thus became neither gods nor humans.

In that great battle, both men were severely wounded.

Instead, Si Wujin took advantage of the chaos to escape and, taking advantage of Sect Master Ouyang's serious injury, seized his body.

He revived Ye Li multiple times in order to destroy the life-and-death contract and sever her bond with Xie Sixing.

By a twist of fate, they were able to renew their bond.
