Gu Jueye was already standing on the sacrificial altar. He picked up an ancient dagger from the altar and slowly made a bloody cut on his arm. The blood flowed down his arm into the jade plate on the altar.
A moment later, a red light flashed and slowly gathered into a semi-circular dome, protecting the Qi King's Cauldron in the center.
Bai Qianmo suddenly opened her eyes, and when she saw what Gu Jueye was doing, her heart ached.
"No, Fifth Brother, no!"
She remembered, she remembered everything.
Ruan Mengli's descendants possess half the energy of the Dragon Spirit in their blood. Therefore, if she wants to ascend back to the fifth dimension, she needs the blood of her descendants to be condensed to protect the energy condensation of the Qi King's Cauldron from being destroyed.
However, during this process, the descendants of the Gu family could very likely die from excessive blood loss.
This is why there is an altar in the Crystal Palace. This altar is not for commemorating ancestors, but for the descendants of the Gu family.
Therefore, Gu Jueye did not want to sacrifice other descendants of the Gu family, so he had no choice but to sacrifice himself to accomplish this task.
Fresh blood flowed continuously from his arm, dripping into the jade plate. Red light also continuously condensed from the jade plate, protecting the Qi King's Cauldron from damage.
At this moment, the man's face had turned pale, but his eyes were full of determination.
"Go back and live a good life, forget everything here."
A thousand years is like several lifetimes for him, but for her, it's just a fleeting moment.
She has countless millennia to go, so forgetting this part is the best choice for her.
Because the long wait is the most agonizing.
He waited from the King of Qi to Xu Changchong to Gu Jueye; it was a very long journey.
Perhaps it's time for him to let go.
Bai Qianmo's eyes were bloodshot, and drops of bloody tears streamed down her face.
"You knew all along, didn't you? You knew what you had to do after coming here, so you were prepared to sacrifice your life to summon my primordial spirit. Gu Jueye, did you ask for my permission before you did this? I don't want to... I don't want you to do this. I would rather be reduced to ashes than live in this way."
She screamed desperately, trying to break through the purple protective aura, but at that moment, her body was bound by an invisible, mysterious energy, and she couldn't move at all.
Her body was heating up continuously, as if it were about to explode at any moment, and she felt her consciousness gradually fading away.
In the last moment before her consciousness faded, she endured the extreme discomfort in her body and looked at the man on the sacrificial altar.
Seeing his swaying body, yet stubbornly holding on, her heart ached as if it were being torn apart.
"Fifth Brother... Fifth Brother..." she murmured weakly.
She seemed to want to say something, but her voice gradually became ethereal and hollow. She was enveloped in endless darkness, and as the last glimmer of light went out, she fell into chaos.
"boom"
With a loud bang, Bai Qianmo's body gradually turned transparent, and a beam of purple energy shot straight up from her body to the dome.
Gu Jueye struggled to stay upright, watching her gradually transform into a crystal-clear light and disappear before his eyes.
He slowly reached out his hand, wanting to feel her presence one last time.
"Bang!"
"Boom!"
A violent explosion rang out, and the Crystal Palace shattered.
At this time
The stone gate is slowly opening.
The group quickly rushed into the stone gate.
They followed the secret passage opened by Gu Jueye and descended the stairs to the underground.
We followed the narrow tunnel all the way to the Crystal Palace.
Upon seeing the colossal Crystal Palace crumble and shatter, the leading man's cold gaze turned toward the divine cauldron.
"She's finally back."
