Yun Che relied on his astonishing willpower to temporarily stabilize the Yuanchen barrier, but he soon passed out due to his severe injuries.
After being unconscious for half a month, Yun Che finally woke up. He no longer needed to release the Great Buddha Art on purpose, but it would circulate naturally. Coupled with Li Su's full treatment, he had recovered 30% of his strength at this moment.
"You finally woke up. I was so worried."
Lianyue's surprised words rang in Yun Che's ears. For the past half month, Lianyue had been staying by Yun Che's bedside, taking care of him meticulously.
Although she had countless questions in her mind, she was smart enough not to ask any.
She naturally knew that earth-shattering events had occurred in the entire Ancestral Dragon lineage, and she also guessed that all of this was the work of the "Yao Xing" in front of her, but she still did not ask, because she knew that if Yun Che truly accepted her, he would naturally tell her everything about this place.
"Where is the young master of the Dragon Clan? Where is she?" The first thing Yun Che did when he woke up was to worry about Yun Xi's safety. He was afraid that his daughter would be in trouble.
A flash of disappointment crossed Lianyue's face, but she wasn't angry. She slowly replied, "She's been staying in her own place these past few days, and she seems very sad. I went to see her a few times, and she was always sitting cross-legged on the ground, clutching a sword, and saying nothing."
After confirming that Yun Xi was fine, Yun Che breathed a sigh of relief, then said to Lian Yue with a hint of apology, "I was in a coma for a few days."
"Half a month."
"Thank you for your hard work these past few days."
"You don't have to tell me this. I've already said that everything I have belongs to you. No matter what you want to do, I will support you and help you silently to the best of my ability."
Yun Che gently hugged Lianyue and kissed her on the forehead. This was the best response he could make.
The world of the abyss was originally his enemy, but at this moment he once again developed some strange feelings for it, which could not be erased or let go.
As soon as he woke up, Yun Che dragged his sick body to Yun Xi's birthplace.
There was no one else in the entire Zulong area, and Yun Che came to where Yun Xi was without any hindrance.
After entering the cave, a woman with tear stains on her face was holding a large iron sword and sobbing silently.
A trace of heartache appeared on Yun Che's face, but it was soon replaced by shock. His pupils instantly dilated as he tried hard to identify the sword in front of him.
Even though the sword was covered with traces of rust from the years, and even though the sword itself looked very ordinary, Yun Che knew that this was the legendary Zhutian Ancestral Sword.
He had clearly seen this world-destroying artifact in the evil god's memory, and remembered its appearance deeply in his mind.
In this world, Yun Che was one of the few people who had seen the Ancestral Sword of Heaven-Slaying. Anyone else wouldn't even give this unremarkable rusty sword a second glance, but this was the Ancestral Sword of Heaven-Slaying, ranked number one among Xuantian's treasures, and possessed the true power to annihilate the world!
Yun Che suddenly recalled what the ancient blue dragon had said. His daughter was sealed within the Zhutian Ancestral Sword and became a sword spirit.
“So it seems that Shen Xi has transformed into a sword spirit and fallen into a deep sleep.” Yun Che instantly understood the whole process.
He was just very curious about how Shen Xi had come to the abyss back then, since she clearly couldn't leave the reincarnation barrier at all.
“Little Li Suo, can you sense Shen Xi’s soul?” Yun Che asked anxiously.
As the Creator God of Life, Li Suo has the strongest perception of souls. If even she can't sense it, then...
"There is indeed a faint soul within the Ancestral Sword of Heaven-Slaying, and it's a soul I'm very familiar with," Li Suo said calmly. "I think I know Shen Xi. This name also resonates with me."
Li Suo's words instantly dissipated Yun Che's inner nervousness and uneasiness.
Fortunately, Shen Xi is still alive!
“Do you have a way to revive Shen Xi?” Yun Che asked, suppressing his inner excitement.
"I can't do it yet. Actually, the soul within this sword is in the same situation as He Ling. If your cultivation level or soul power improves significantly, then perhaps I can find a way to awaken them both," Li Suo replied, her ancient memories momentarily triggered. Shen Xi seemed to be a very important existence to her.
"Xi'er, your mother is fine. I promise you." Yun Che walked closer and spoke slowly to Yun Xi.
"You don't have to comfort me. In fact, I have been thinking, struggling, and daydreaming these past few days. I don't blame you, or rather, I shouldn't blame you. In fact, I know that everything you said is true. The Dragon Lord has been lying to me all along."
Yun Xi already remembered the whole process of the Dragon Lord asking her to destroy the Five Spirit Treasures with her own hands. It was here that she destroyed this last hope with her own hands.
"But I will never forgive you either, because you wiped out my last ray of hope. Without my mother, I have no meaning to live. Perhaps I shouldn't have come into this world and let my mother suffer such a tragic experience."
"If it weren't for me, Mother wouldn't have been injured by Long Bai and would have had to find a way to save me; if it weren't for me, Mother wouldn't have had to step into the Well of Samsara and come to this abyss; if it weren't for me, Mother wouldn't have fallen into this eternal sleep!"
"She should have been the moon in the sky, the fairy on earth, a being that everyone would love, the most beautiful person in the world. Everything happened because of me. It's all my fault, it's all my fault..."
Yun Xi was shrouded in sadness, she exuded a deathly aura and had no motivation to live anymore.
