Chu Chu didn't know why Rong Lin was unhappy.
He was always willing to help her with her affairs.
This time, he seemed a little absent-minded, but Chu Chu didn't care about that.
Rong Lin and Chu Chu hid in the dark, staring at the woman sleeping on the bed. Her breathing was even and peaceful, as if she was completely unaware of the upcoming exploration.
"Are you ready?" Chu Chu asked softly, with a determined light in her eyes.
Rong Lin nodded slightly, a wisp of elegant spiritual energy gathering in his hand, a symbol of his status as a celestial god. "Begin."
As he finished speaking, the two of them flashed and transformed into two streams of light, which directly penetrated Zhao Qing's forehead, disappeared at the edge of the real world, and entered the vast sea of consciousness.
Within the sea of consciousness, there are countless scenes, as if it is a microcosm of another universe.
There are both brilliant stars and surging undercurrents here. Each star represents a memory of Zhao Qing, and those surging undercurrents are the emotions and fears deep in her heart.
"Her sea of consciousness... is even more complex than I imagined." Rong Lin looked around, his brow furrowed. Although he was a celestial god, he was unfamiliar with the structure of a human's sea of consciousness. Every moment here was filled with unknowns and challenges.
Chuchu seemed much more calm. She closed her eyes and sensed something, quickly locking onto an area of exceptionally bright light. "That's where her core memory lies, and it's also the key to determining whether she's a Chongming Bird."
The two of them flashed and quickly approached the light. However, at this moment, the surrounding scene suddenly changed. The originally calm sea surface began to churn, and magical beasts of various shapes emerged from the darkness. They roared and screamed, obviously sensing the presence of the invaders and preparing to attack.
"She's very vigilant. Perhaps she really is a bird of the same name." Rong Lin smiled bitterly and immediately launched his weapon. The tip of his sword flashed with a cold light. This was his sharp weapon for slaying demons and monsters. "Prepare for battle."
Chu Chu was not to be outdone. She formed seals with her hands and muttered something. In an instant, circles of red ripples spread out from her palms, forming a solid defensive barrier that protected the two of them.
The battle was about to begin. Rong Lin's figure was as fast as lightning, and as he swung his sword, the sword light was like a dragon. Wherever he passed, the monsters fell down and turned into nothingness.
Chuchu was in charge of controlling the barrier, constantly reinforcing it to prevent the monsters from breaking through the defense line. The two of them worked together so well that for a while, they were evenly matched, with no clear winner.
However, as time went on, the number of monsters seemed endless, and their attacks became more and more fierce. Rong Lin and Chu Chu's spiritual power was greatly consumed, and even with their cultivation level, they began to feel powerless.
"This isn't a solution." Rong Lin's eyes were sharp as he decided to adopt a more direct strategy. "Chu Chu, you are responsible for protecting me. I will try to directly attack her core memory."
Chuchu nodded after hearing this. She knew this was the only way out. So, she focused even more on maintaining the barrier and ensuring Rong Lin's safety.
Rong Lin took a deep breath, gathering all his spiritual energy, and transformed it into a dazzling sword beam, pointing directly at the core of the light. Just as the sword beam was about to touch the light, a powerful backlash suddenly hit him, making it almost impossible for him to stand.
But Rong Lin didn't flinch. He gritted his teeth, forcibly withstood the force, and plunged his sword deep into the halo. At that moment, his entire sea of consciousness seemed to tremble, and the frantic monsters seemed to sense something, halting their attacks and gazing towards the halo.
Within the halo, images slowly unfolded, revealing memories of Zhao Qing's past life. Rong Lin and Chu Chu were surprised to discover that Zhao Qing had actually been a double-headed bird in her past life, soaring above the heavens, radiating a dazzling and divine blue light.
However, a sudden disaster shattered this tranquility. To protect her home, she sacrificed herself and became a barrier to stop the enemy's invasion. As a result, her soul was reincarnated as a human, but she lost her memories and powers from her past life.
At this moment, Zhao Qing's consciousness began to awaken. She felt the spying and threats from the outside world. The monsters in her sea of consciousness became restless again, preparing for a final counterattack.
"Stop!" Chu Chu suddenly spoke, her voice echoing in her sea of consciousness, carrying an undeniable power. "We are here to help you, Zhao Qing."
Zhao Qing's consciousness seemed to be touched, and the movements of those monsters began to slow down and eventually stopped attacking.
Rong Lin also took the opportunity to retract the sword light, and stood in front of the light with Chu Chu, waiting for Zhao Qing's response.
After a moment, the dazzling light gradually weakened and finally dissipated completely, and Zhao Qing's figure appeared clearly in their eyes.
"Who are you?" Zhao Qing's voice was a little hoarse, but every word carried a force that could not be ignored. Her eyes held suspicion, mixed with a hint of wariness.
Seeing this, Chuchu immediately revealed a warm and sincere smile. She whispered, "We are your friends, and we are here to help you regain your memories and strength from your past life."
Zhao Qing fell silent after hearing this. A complex expression crossed her face, as she seemed to be trying to process this information. After a long moment, she slowly nodded, indicating her willingness to accept their help.
As Zhao Qing nodded in agreement, the monsters that were wreaking havoc in the sea of consciousness seemed to sense something and began to gradually dissipate, and the entire space returned to tranquility and peace.
At this time, Rong Lin took a deep breath, looked at Zhao Qing seriously and said, "Next, we will guide you step by step to awaken the memories and power of your previous life. But you must be mentally prepared. This process may be very painful and even accompanied by unknown dangers." He hoped that Zhao Qing could fully understand the challenges she was about to face.
Zhao Qing nodded again, this time with an unprecedented determination in her eyes. "No matter how difficult it is, I'm willing to try. Because deep down in my heart, I have always longed to fly, to become that double-headed bird, soaring freely above the heavens."
Seeing this, Chuchu felt a warm feeling in her heart. She couldn't help but ask, "Don't you recognize me yet?"
Zhao Qing looked at Chuchu's face carefully, and finally, a familiar figure gradually became clear in her mind: "Are you...Princess Qingming?" There was a hint of incredible surprise in her voice.
Chu Chu smiled slightly and continued to ask: "What else did you see? What do you remember about our past memories?"
