Chapter 298: Soul Sorrow



“Come on, try releasing your Xuan Gang. When Xuan Gang awakens, you will naturally understand how to use it.” Yun Canghai said with a smile.

Yun Che nodded. Indeed, when his Xuan Gang awakened, a soul connection appeared in his heart and soul… The soul connection with Xuan Gang, it gave Yun Che a feeling that it was not like a new power at all, but like a new organ growing inside his body. He moved his mind casually, and a red light flashed on his left arm. A ray of red light flew out silently and floated in front of him. With his mind, it transformed into the shape of Dragon Fault… Except for the different color, the appearance was exactly the same as his Dragon Fault.

Looking at the Xuan Gang in front of him, although its power and aura were far from being comparable to that of his grandfather, Yun Che still felt an indescribable excitement in his heart. Looking at his eyes, Yun Canghai smiled with satisfaction: "Trust your feelings. It is not only your power, but also a part of your body and soul. Although it is the lowest among the Xuan Gang, red also has its benefits. The power of the Xuan Gang also comes from the owner of the Xuan Gang, so when releasing the Xun Gang, it will also accelerate the consumption of the Xuanli and mental power. The stronger the Xuan Gang, the greater the consumption. The red Xuan Gang is accompanied by the least consumption."

Yun Canghai's words were naturally just words of comfort. For the lowest level red profound energy, this so-called "advantage" was ridiculous. The red profound energy began to change in various ways under Yun Che's will, sometimes it became a sword, sometimes a spear, sometimes it turned into a long silk, and even turned into leaves, water drops, and even human figures. Yun Canghai continued: "The profound energy is not only a special power body, but also a pure soul body, which can invade and attack the enemy's soul."

“Soul attack?” Yun Che was surprised, and then he quickly focused his mind. Immediately, his profound energy quickly faded, and eventually became invisible, transforming into a pure soul body.

The strength and magic of Xuan Gang once again exceeded Yun Che’s expectations. His heart was moved as well, as if he had thought of something.

“Hehehe…” Watching Yun Che excitedly manipulating the newly awakened Xuan Gang, Yun Canghai nodded and smiled continuously, and at the same time recalled the time when he was young and had just awakened Xuan Gang. As he smiled, his vision gradually became blurred. He used to be so powerful and proud, looking down on everything. In the Illusory Demon Realm, he was the “king” who was only below the “emperor”. But now, he was so miserable and destitute that he caused his son to die in order to save him, and he also accidentally brought his grandson into this abyss… His grandson was now nineteen years old, but he had not fulfilled his responsibility as a grandfather for a day. The only thing he could do for him was to consume his own source power to help him awaken Xuan Gang in advance.

For a hundred years, he had suffered loneliness, misfortune and humiliation, but he was still unwilling to die. He did not want the important things of the Demon King's clan to be lost, and he did not want to die here in such a worthless way.

And now, that important thing has been entrusted to my grandson, and my remaining life can finally die with value...

"Che'er, come here."

Yun Che put away his Xuan Gang and came in front of Yun Canghai.

"Back then, when I left the Illusory Demon Realm to search for the Demon King, I gave the Patriarch's token to your father, but I didn't tell him a huge secret. This secret is only known by the Demon King's clan and my Yun family, and it is passed down orally by every Demon King and Patriarch of the Yun family. No one else knows it. If the Demon King has really fallen, then I am the only one left in the world who knows this secret. I am trapped here and there is no way I will ever see the light of day again. I can only pass this secret on to you... Che'er, listen closer."

In this place, there were only the grandfather and grandson, and it was impossible for anyone to hear them talking, but Yun Canghai was still so cautious, which showed how important this secret was. Yun Che didn't say much, but put his ear close to him as he was told. Yun Canghai whispered something in his ear in a very light voice.

“Ah? Is this true?” After hearing Yun Canghai’s words, Yun Che’s face showed deep shock.

“This matter concerns the future of the entire Illusory Demon Realm. You must keep it in mind and tell it to the Little Demon Queen who now rules over the Illusory Demon Realm. And never let anyone else know about it.”

Yun Che nodded: “I have remembered everything Grandpa said. Grandpa, don’t be too pessimistic. We will definitely find a way out. I will keep the secret that Grandpa told me tightly, but I don’t necessarily need to tell the Little Demon Queen about this. It would be best if Grandpa told her in person.”

"Hahaha!" Yun Canghai laughed with relief: "Hearing you say these words, I am very happy. My Yun family owes you for nineteen years, and your grandfather caused you to be trapped here, but you have not shown the slightest resentment. Not only are you willing to recognize me as your grandfather, but you also think of me in everything... It is a blessing for my Yun family to have a grandson like you, and it is also the greatest compensation from God for the hundred years of misery for me, Yun Canghai. I believe that when you see your biological parents one day, you will definitely not blame them for not protecting you back then. Although you are full of murderous aura, your nature is exceptionally kind. It seems that Grandpa Xiao who raised you must be a kind person."

Yun Che nodded gently: "He is... a great grandfather."

Yun Canghai raised his head and said with emotion: "I really want to thank him in person. I have lived for hundreds of years, and I have never been so grateful to someone... Che'er, remember what I said before. In the future, you must respect him as you respect your own grandfather and repay his kindness in raising you."

Yun Che nodded heavily.

"Okay... I'm tired and need to rest for a while. You should go outside the barrier and feel your new Xuan Gang carefully. The more you feel it, the more you will discover its infinite mysteries." Yun Canghai said with his eyes closed.

“Yes, Grandpa.” Yun Che nodded and walked out of the barrier as he was told. It seemed that Yun Canghai had spent a lot of energy to awaken the Xuan Gang for him. He had been panting while talking before.

After walking outside the barrier, Yun Che sat down on the ground and closed his eyes. However, he did not think about Xuan Gang, but instead pondered how to leave here.

Yun Canghai was bound to the Xing Tian Sword by the chain called the "Meteoric Chain". Yun Che had tried to attack the "Meteoric Chain" with Dragon Fault, but could not even cause the slightest injury, let alone break it.

Jasmine had told him before that the suppressive power of the Xing Tian Sword was connected to Yun Canghai's soul. As long as Yun Canghai was alive, the suppressive power would always exist. On the contrary, if he died, the suppressive power would disappear. This was why he had to kill Yun Canghai before. Now that he knew Yun Canghai was his grandfather, he would definitely not be able to do anything to him again. So if he wanted to get out...

…………

…………

Yun Che opened his eyes suddenly, and his brain seemed to be pierced by an electric current.

Yun Canghai couldn't possibly have a way to get out of here, otherwise he wouldn't have been trapped for a hundred years. He had no other way to get out except to kill Yun Canghai... But, just because he couldn't do anything to Yun Canghai, it didn't mean that Yun Canghai wouldn't do something to him for his freedom!

The Heavenly Power Soul-Suppressing Formation was ineffective against him, so why did Yun Canghai ask him to go outside the barrier to comprehend the Xuan Gang?

And what he said before... Tell him the big secret...

"grandfather!!"

Yun Che roared, suddenly leaped up from the ground, and rushed into the barrier. As soon as his footsteps entered the barrier, he froze there...

Yun Canghai's head drooped on his chest, and he did not respond even to his shocked shouts, and there was no trace of life in his body.

“Grandpa…Grandpa!!”

The terrifying thought that suddenly flashed through his mind suddenly became a reality like a nightmare. Yun Che’s entire body trembled as he rushed forward like a madman and threw himself in front of Yun Canghai.

But what responded to him was not Yun Canghai's voice, but the sound of the falling star chain.

The Falling Star Chains that were wrapped around Yun Canghai suddenly loosened their restraints and fell down helplessly. This was because the blockade of the Falling Star Chains was also connected to the heart and soul of the person being locked. When the body and soul died, the Falling Star Chains would automatically loosen.

Xing Tianjian's aura also disappeared at this moment. There was no longer any trace of heavy and vast pressure. It was as peaceful as a dead sword.

Yun Canghai's body, which had been bound for a whole hundred years, finally gained freedom at this moment, and slowly fell forward into Yun Che's arms. Yun Che hugged his grandfather's body, slowly knelt on the ground, staring blankly ahead, without making any sound, without moving, and even without tears, as if his soul had left his body in an instant.

"He severed his own heart meridian... I'm not surprised at all that he made this choice." Jasmine said calmly.

Yun Che: “…”

Yun Canghai died, just as Jasmine said, he died by severing his heart meridian.

He died peacefully, his face was calm, and there was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth. It was a smile of relief and satisfaction. This was the only thing that could comfort Yun Che... Behind the smile, there was a deep reluctance and concern hidden quietly.

At this moment, Yun Canghai’s last voice rang out in Yun Che’s ears… the echo of his soul left behind before his death:

"Che'er, during this period of time, Grandpa can see that you have been thinking about many people and many things in your heart, and you have been longing to get out every minute and every second... Grandpa is sorry for you, and this is the last thing Grandpa can do for you. Don't be sad, although Grandpa is gone, for Grandpa, this is the relief he has always dreamed of. Being able to be with you and entrusting you with the things that he cannot let go, Grandpa no longer has any regrets or worries, and can accompany the Demon King with peace of mind and satisfaction... What's more, there is also you, the continuation of Grandpa's life and bloodline."

“Che’er, my good child, Grandpa didn’t take good care of you when he was alive. In the other world, Grandpa will use all his time and strength to pray for you. Tianxuan Continent is your home, but Fantasy Demon Realm is your real hometown. Grandpa hopes that you can return to Fantasy Demon Realm and our Yun family in the future, so that your parents know that you are still alive and well in this world… Don’t blame your parents, they must have been worried about you and missed you for nineteen years… Grandpa’s last wish is not revenge, not the Demon King clan, but the hope that you… can be reunited as a family…”

Yun Canghai’s last voice faded away, and two tear marks finally rolled down Yun Che’s face… Above his head, wisps of sand and dust fell, and these dust also proved that Xing Tianjian’s suppression had completely disappeared, but Yun Che did not move for a long time. He hugged Yun Canghai’s body… Holding this blood relative who he had just recognized and lost, the whole person seemed to have turned into a sad sculpture.

——————————————

At the same time, Tianjian Villa.

After practicing sword skills, Ling Jie returned to his courtyard with a hot body. Just as he was about to enter the room, a Tianjian disciple dressed in swordsmanship rushed in hurriedly: "Second Young Master!"

"Brother Yunpeng...what's the hurry?" Ling Jie turned his head and said with a heavy breath.

"First of all, congratulations to the Second Young Master for his rapid breakthrough to the tenth level of the Profound Spirit Realm, surpassing the young master of that year." The Tianjian disciple said with a smile. When Ling Jie broke through yesterday, it shocked the entire Tianjian Villa, because when Ling Yun was seventeen years old, he was only at the ninth level of the Profound Spirit Realm. Ling Yun's breakthrough this time proved that his talent completely surpassed Ling Yun. He took out an invitation with a fire pattern border from his arms: "This is an invitation from the Burning Heaven Sect. The young master of the Burning Heaven Sect will go to the Blue Wind Imperial City to marry Princess Cang Yue in four days, and will get married in the Yanyang Palace of the Burning Heaven Sect in seven days. The owner of the villa happened to have something to do seven days later, so he asked the Second Young Master to go on his behalf, saying that the Second Young Master has not left the Tianjian Villa for nearly two years, and it is a good opportunity to take a walk when he breaks through."

“Fen Juecheng… and the princess sister!?” Ling Jie was startled and quickly snatched the invitation from the Tianjian disciple. After opening it, he glanced at it and frowned: “How could this be… No! This cannot be the princess sister’s original intention. The princess sister is the eldest…”

He read the invitation several times, and finally paused on the date. He frowned, as if he had made a decision. He put away the invitation and said seriously, "Senior Brother Yunpeng, go tell my father that I will go to Burning Heaven Sect on his behalf in seven days."
