She knelt like a lifeless statue, crystal tears falling silently.
It rolled down her fair cheek and gently dripped onto the cold ground, making a crisp and heartbreaking sound of "tick-tick".
"Yao..." She uttered the name with difficulty, as if every word was as heavy as Mount Tai, almost suffocating her.
Her voice echoed in this quiet space, sounding particularly desolate.
Chen Yan slowly closed her eyes, trying her best to suppress the pain that was surging in her heart.
At this moment, the originally cracked black tower seemed to feel the despair and sadness in its owner's heart, and it began to tremble slightly.
It slowly approached Chen Yan's side, and gently touched the corner of her clothes with its tower body, as if wanting to give her a little warmth and comfort.
I don't know how long it took until the voice of the spirit god sounded outside -
"You're still here, aren't you?"
Chen Yan's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes. She first placed the red jade hairpin in her hand into an exquisite box. Then, she raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face and cleaned up her mess.
And, suppress the grief.
She touched the small black tower beside her, then slowly stood up.
Her eyes couldn't help but sweep across the soft couch not far away, and that figure appeared in her mind.
She pursed her lips and slipped away from the supernatural space.
Lingshen raised her eyes and looked at Chen Yan. She did not miss any changes in Chen Yan's emotions.
She asked, "Is it painful?"
Chen Yan said coldly: "If that's all you want to ask, then I'm sorry I won't accompany you."
"Wait." Seeing that she was about to leave, the Spirit God stopped her in a deep voice, "Don't you want to resurrect Feng Xingyao?"
Chen Yan turned her head and looked at her sharply.
The spirit said meaningfully, "My Afeng can no longer be resurrected, but Feng Xingyao is different. He still has a glimmer of hope. However, if you don't act quickly, this last glimmer of hope will be shattered."
Chen Yan was suspicious and asked, "Don't you hate him? Why are you saying something to me now?"
"Do you suspect I have ulterior motives?" The Spiritual God's expression grew colder, and then she sneered, "It's true that I hate Feng Xingyao to the core, wishing to tear him into pieces and make him suffer all the pain and torture in the world. But even so, I have never considered taking his life! Because his life and death are related to the fate of all people in the world."
After a pause, the Spiritual God stared at Chen Yan and continued, "This God has decided to show you a clear path for the sake of all living beings in the world. If you don't want to, then forget it."
The two looked at each other for a moment.
Chen Yan's heart moved slightly, and he said, "Please speak."
The Spirit God's expression softened slightly, "Have you ever heard of the Land of the Fallen Gods?"
Chen Yan heard this and shook his head.
"The Land of the Fallen Gods is a forbidden area in the Primordial Realm! It's located very close to the sealed Black Water Source, so it's incredibly dangerous! Even if a god wanted to enter, they might not be able to return alive." The Spirit God said, "Did Feng Xingyao ever tell you about his soul fragments?"
Hearing the last sentence, Chen Yan's heart choked slightly. She suppressed her emotions and said, "It's not much."
The Spirit God recalled the past: "During the chaos of war in the prehistoric times, the remaining gods decided to seal the Black Water Source. Among them was Feng Xingyao. I once heard from the God of Xuanguang that Feng Xingyao's power came from two sources: his soul and his own divine power."
"Before I was born, Feng Xingyao's soul was shattered for unknown reasons. Back then, he dedicated all his divine power to sealing the Black Water Source, which later led to his capture by those with ulterior motives. I don't know what happened after that, after all, I fell into a deep sleep due to expending too much divine power."
When Lingshen said this, he looked at Chenyan deeply.
She continued, "The reason I'm so certain that Feng Xingyao still has a glimmer of hope is that fragments of his soul remain. These fragments are actually fragments of his soul. As long as you can find and gather his scattered soul fragments one by one, then he has a great chance of reviving. However, if you do nothing, his soul fragments will most likely be discovered and taken away by the Nameless God. By then, even if you want to revive Feng Xingyao, I'm afraid it will be too late."
"What does this have to do with the Land of God's Fall?" Chen Yan narrowed his eyes slightly.
The Spirit God said: "In the Land of the Fallen God, there are fragments of his soul."
Chen Yan asked, "How many soul fragments are there? What do they look like?"
When Lingshen heard this, his gaze involuntarily moved to Chenyan's earlobe, where there was a small hole.
Chen Yan noticed the spirit god's gaze, and his heart moved. He raised his hand and touched his earlobe.
She touched the place that Feng Xingyao had bitten through before.
The Spirit God said in an ambiguous tone, "This is the soul mark he left for you. Once you encounter a fragment of his soul, you will react. As for how many soul fragments there are, this God does not know."
Chen Yan seemed to be thinking about something, and asked, "Where is the place where the gods fell?"
The spirit god said: "In the forbidden area of the central circle, I can take you in."
"Are you helping me for the sake of the people of the world? Or do you have some other agenda?" Chen Yan stared at her sharply. "You knew that my strength was not high and that if I entered the Land of the Falling Gods, I would most likely not come out alive. Why did you still send me in?"
The Spirit God raised his eyebrows slightly and chuckled, "Because I think you can die for him."
Chen Yan shook his head and responded sternly: "Spirit God, you are wrong. I have always cherished my life and would never take risks to do things that are uncertain."
She didn't want to exchange her life for another, and she didn't want to die in the Land of God's Destruction before she even met Feng Xingyao.
She wanted to see Feng Xingyao alive.
Hearing this, Lingshen was slightly stunned and felt shocked.
For a moment, she felt that Chen Yan was very selfish and was unwilling to sacrifice her life for the person who had protected her many times.
If it were her, what would she do?
She probably agreed without hesitation because she loved Feng Xingxiu very much.
The Spiritual God looked at her coldly, his tone full of contempt, "Your love for him is not pure."
Facing the Spirit God's rebuke and criticism, Chen Yan remained remarkably calm, as if those words hadn't touched her in the slightest. She simply glanced at the Spirit God calmly, then softly said, "Thank you for telling me all this. I will indeed go to the Land of the Fallen God, but not now."
The spirit choked slightly.
Because of the similarity of their experiences, she thought she saw her former self in Shen Yan, but now looking closely, she realized that they were not the same.
