Lin Qianqian said she wasn't from this world and would return when the time was right. He didn't know this before, and when he suddenly heard her say she was leaving, he felt very reluctant to part with her.
He couldn't figure out what his feelings for Lin Qianqian were, but he could clearly sense the kindness and vague affection Lin Qianqian was showing him.
The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't help but ask, "Are you leaving? When?"
Lin Qianqian fell silent at the question; she didn't know when she would leave.
Looking at Yunze's face, some suppressed emotions suddenly erupted in her heart. The feeling of parting instantly filled her heart, but she couldn't say a word.
Looking back on all the moments they had shared, she felt very reluctant to part ways.
But Yunze hadn't avenged his great enemy, and he had his own things to do; he couldn't stay with her all the time. She wanted to say or do something, but she lacked the courage. The atmosphere shifted from serious to somewhat ambiguous and sorrowful; both remained silent.
"Ahem," Lu Wu couldn't hold back any longer. He didn't want to interrupt the young couple's beautiful love, but this strange atmosphere was something he, a million-year-old single dog, really couldn't stand. So he had to interrupt.
"Since Miss Qianqian can fuse with the Cloud Void Realm, then the rest are not major problems. Yunze will be leaving soon. You should take the time to say goodbye. I will go back to the tomb to rest for a while, and I will personally send Yunze out of the space later." After saying that, he disappeared.
Parting is always bittersweet, especially since this parting might be their last. Lin Qianqian, usually quite eloquent, found herself speechless with farewell words.
Fortunately, Yunze spoke first: "You saved my life, and I should repay that debt of gratitude first. But I have a great grudge to settle and my mother's wish to return to her roots remains unfulfilled. So I will repay the debt of gratitude for saving my life later."
"Who needs you to repay my life-saving grace? Just live well, and it won't be in vain that I carried you through mountains and rivers to escape for my life." Lin Qianqian didn't need him to repay her kindness; she just didn't want to be separated from him.
Yunze sensed Lin Qianqian's deep reluctance to part with him, and this intense emotion dispelled the suppressed feelings of separation and reluctance in his heart.
He stared into Lin Qianqian's eyes and slowly smiled, a smile so beautiful it captivated Lin Qianqian that she lost all sense of time.
He spoke enticingly, "My Bai Ze clan has a soul contract. Once signed, the two people can sense each other no matter how far apart they are. Even if they are not in the same realm, as long as their strength is sufficient, they can find each other across realms and planes. Are you willing to sign this contract with me? After I ascend or have the strength to break through space, I will definitely come to find you."
After saying that, he added in his heart: And then I'll be with you forever.
Lin Qianqian, whose mind had wandered off to a completely different place, agreed without thinking. But when she started signing the contract in a daze, her runaway mind finally came back to her senses.
The ground was covered with an intricate and difficult-to-understand array, surrounded by top-grade spirit stones. The two stood facing each other in the center of the array. Both of them had black and white hair ties made of their own hair tied around their left wrists, and the fingers of their other hands were pressed against their respective foreheads.
Then they both chanted incantations, and the array lit up instantly. A few breaths later, a wisp of divine soul power was drawn from between their brows and merged into their hair ties. The hair ties changed from black and white to silver and green intertwined, and finally disappeared into their wrists.
After the ritual, Lin Qianqian felt something was off. She checked herself over and found nothing unusual, except that something had appeared in her soul.
She didn't quite understand; perhaps this was what Yunze meant by the medium that allowed them to sense each other and find one another.
Sigh, it's all because of her beauty that she was misled. She should have asked questions first, but now the contract is already signed. Oh well, whatever!
The two sat on the stone steps outside the main hall, and Lin Qianqian had countless things to tell Yunze.
She told him not to rush into revenge after leaving the secret realm, but to plan carefully before acting, prioritizing his own safety above all else. She warned him to take care of himself, be wary of malicious people, and trust no one except her…
Yunze listened attentively and agreed to each request. He also promised that he would only seek revenge against the culprits and would never implicate the innocent.
Lin Qianqian took out a lot of spiritual herbs and medicines from her blue jade space bracelet and gave them to him, repeatedly telling him to be careful not to get hurt.
Yunze accepted everything without refusing. In the end, he also gave Lin Qianqian a gift in return: a semi-divine artifact whip.
The next day, Lu Wu gave Yun Ze a memory stone containing images that Lu Wu had drawn from the water mirror.
After Lu Wu sent Yun Ze out of the Cloud Void Realm, he began to teach Lin Qianqian how to integrate with the Cloud Void Realm.
Following Lu Wu's guidance, she manipulated her spatial core, slowly merging it with the core of the Cloud Void Realm. The instant the two cores began to merge, she became the new master of the Cloud Void Realm. Even though the new space was not fully formed, it did not prevent her, as its master, from casting spells to put everything within the Cloud Void Realm into slumber.
Lu Wu said that both the complete fusion of the two core elements and the finalization of the new space would be a long process. This process would be very disruptive, and he feared that the creatures in the Cloud Void Realm would panic and run amok. Sleep would better protect them.
Normally, a newly formed companion space needs countless years of evolution, to comprehend countless rules, and to absorb countless spiritual treasures of heaven and earth before it can take shape and become complete. However, the Cloud Void Realm is already a complete space, so these steps are omitted. But it will still take several decades or even hundreds of years to fully integrate.
Fortunately, she's now a Golden Core cultivator, so this period of time isn't too long. It's perfect timing; she can use this time to cultivate properly and solidify her realm and cultivation level. Besides, the system said that no matter how long she trains in this plane, only 15 days have passed on Blue Star.
As the integration deepened, the newly created space became larger and more fully structured than the original Cloud Void Realm. Many new blessed lands and grotto-heavens appeared in the new space, and she even considered whether to integrate the Blue Jade Space, which was the Blue Jade Bracelet on her hand, into this new space.
The Blue Jade Space is a rare magical treasure, comparable to a celestial artifact. It can hold living things and grow crops, and its area is as large as the Yan Kingdom.
The space contained fields, plains, mountains, and rivers, as well as countless spiritual mines, spiritual veins, and spiritual springs, and a spiritual field covered with Breath Soil. That special field was only a few square meters, and the Breath Soil was only a thin layer. Lin Qianqian wanted to know how much Breath Soil there was in total, so she impulsively rolled it all into a ball, about the size of a basketball.
But she couldn't even lift this basketball-sized piece of soil, so she eventually laid it back down.
According to Jumang's inherited memories, this Blue Jade Space was crafted from a branch of the towering Jianmu tree, along with countless rare and precious materials. That branch was originally planted in the mound of life-giving soil, which is why it didn't completely wither and die.
The Blue Jade Space was filled with most of the spiritual plants that Jumang had collected over millions of years, many of which were precious items from the ancient Immortal Abyss Realm. However, there were very few spiritual beasts, only some small spiritual insects such as spirit bees and butterflies, used for pollination.
There were also a few smaller spirit beasts, which she guessed might be Jumang's pets.
Actually, the Blue Jade Space has another name: the Garden of the Spring God. But in the end, this space wasn't melted down, since it was inherited from Jumang and was one of the spatial magical artifacts he frequently used during his lifetime.
I'm keeping it for two reasons: first, to remember it, and second, to avoid putting all my eggs in one basket.
