Chapter 145 Death

Zhong Wangsheng was silent.

These words, which Longwang had never said when he was alive but were relayed by Nanwang, deeply shocked him and left him at a loss as to what to do.

Seeing that Zhong Wangsheng's attitude had softened, Nan Wang immediately began to pursue his victory:

"The thing that Long Wang regrets least in his life is everything that happened after he met Ye Kuan. If you really care about your father-in-law, then how can you be an enemy of Qingyun Sect? This is the place that Long Wang protected with his life!

"Don't you also feel, like those immortals in the upper three realms, that the Qingyun Realm will eventually be destroyed? Think about it carefully. Back then, everyone said that you were a dead egg and that you would never hatch in this lifetime. But your father-in-law never gave up on you. Didn't he have a companion spirit? Didn't he know that the probability of you being alive was close to a miracle?"

Zhong Wangsheng didn't say anything. He lowered his head and the expression on his face was unclear.

Nan Wang used to think that Zhong Wangsheng was a strange person. He would always fall silent after a few words. He was silly and no one knew what he was thinking. But now, Nan Wang understood everything.

Zhong Wangsheng was not in a daze, but was conversing with his companion spirit.

He is also a dragon. Although he did not inherit the entire heritage, he has a companion spirit.

In the original novel, the reason why he was able to cheat all the way and counterattack and ascend to heaven was all thanks to the blessing of his companion spirit.

However, every trade-off is a trade-off.

The meaning of the companion spirit, rather than protection and guidance, is more like a shell that imprisons the dragon race. Only when they struggle to break the shell can they truly mature.

Nan Wang didn't need to think to know that Zhong Wangsheng's companion spirit must be jumping up and down and screaming at this moment -

"Don't believe him, he's a liar, he's lying to you!"

Just like the Seven Secrets Exquisite Heart back then.

However, no matter what the outside world said, the final decision was made by Zhong Wangsheng himself.

Just like Long Wang back then.

"I believe in you, Father Ya... I, I believe in you!"

At the very end, Zhong Wangsheng said, trembling and choking:

"I will listen to you, Father. Whatever you ask me to do, I will agree..."

Nan Wang took a half step back and let out a long breath.

…

After both parties decided to reconcile, everyone took Zhong Wangsheng to the Qingyun Inner Hall.

In the past, it was absolutely unthinkable to allow a member of the evil cult to enter the house, but now... I can only say, you just get used to it.

If you must say, Nanwang is also a member of the Demon Cult, and he is even the Demon Lord.

As a return for the trust, Zhong Wangsheng took the initiative to write a letter to Wu Ge, in case Wu Ge didn't see him coming back and really brought a ghost corpse to the door.

After sitting down, Nanwang couldn't wait to speak:

"Tell me quickly, what should I do to ascend to the dead world?"

In the face of Nan Wang's expectant gaze, Zhong Wangsheng asked back, "How is it possible to ascend from the realm of the dead?"

Nanwang: “?”

Zhong Wangsheng explained stupidly, "Generally, the dead world cannot even provide the spiritual energy needed for ascension. Even in the special case of Qingyun World... there is a sky-covering barrier outside the upper three realms. The cultivators in the dead world should not be able to pass through the sky-covering barrier, right?"

Although he only has half dragon blood, the other half of his golden cicada blood also belongs to the lineage of immortal beasts. These most basic knowledge are all included in the inheritance of immortal beasts, so he will not make any mistakes.

Nan Wang nodded and shook his head for a long time before he said, "It's definitely not possible for ordinary people, but you are a man... you are a dragon, don't you have any special methods?"

Zhong Wangsheng said honestly: "No."

Nan Wang was a little anxious: "How could there be no such thing? You are in the realm of the dead now. Are you going to stay here and wait for death?"

Zhong Wangsheng retorted: "I am not like Ye Kuo who is trapped in the dead world. When I reach a certain level of cultivation, I will swim to the small world. Even if it is the Dharma Ending Age where cultivation is completely impossible, it doesn't matter. I can still ascend."

Nan Wang's eyes lit up: "Isn't this a method?"

Lingzhi silently interjected, "Yes, Mu Yuanyao and I both think so, Fourth Brother."

Nanwang: “…”

Yes, Mu Yuanyao has used this method once.

Let’s not talk about whether the person sent out can ascend or not. Even if he does, he will not be of any help to the Qingyun Realm.

Moreover, unlike the dragon race who can roam freely in the small world, the price that humans need to pay for traveling to another world is too high. Killing tens of millions of people in order to save one person is simply an evil way.

Nan Wang was so anxious that he stamped his feet: "Besides that, think about it carefully. You must have a way. You must ascend in the dead world and open up the ascension channel!"

Zhong Wangsheng looked at Nan Wang blankly, his dull look like a koala with insufficient brain capacity.

Nan Wang reminded him, “Could it be related to the things that Long Wang left behind? What about the six artifacts? Think about it carefully. Is it possible that you used a certain artifact to ascend?”

"I, I won't do that. How can I use the things left by my father to ascend?"

Zhong Wangsheng opened his mouth in astonishment. He could not accept Nanwang's statement at all:

"It's not like I can't leave. Why don't I take the artifact with me and travel to another world, and then ascend to heaven?"

Nanwang: “…”

Good guy, that makes sense.

But the hero in the original novel really ascended to the Qingyun Realm. How did he do it and why did he do that?

Could it be that Qinghe's prediction was wrong?

"Father, I have a question," Zhong Wangsheng asked weakly, "Why are you looking for a way to ascend to the realm of the dead?"

Nanwang said helplessly: "You are talking nonsense, someone must ascend, and then Qingyun Realm can be transformed from a dead world into an ordinary small world."

"But, hasn't this problem been solved..."

Zhong Wangsheng said puzzledly: "Father, you have already been cleansed. When all your consciousness returns as scales, you will ascend to the Qingyun Realm."

Although Zhong Wangsheng still has complaints about Qingyun Realm, Qingyun Sect and Ye Kuo, but... ascending to the Qingyun Realm is his father's wish, and he will not stop him.

Zhong Wangsheng’s words made Nan Wang’s scalp tingle.

Letting Long Wang complete the scale cleansing...that would be the worst option.

No one knows how long it will take for Long Wang's cleansing of the scales to be completed. Before that day comes, Du Xueling and the others will most likely have died.

From the moment Nanwang arrived at the Qingyun Realm that did not belong to him, the scale washing process had visibly gone wrong. Since Nanwang himself was a piece of divine consciousness, if Nanwang did not die, the scale washing could not be completed without this piece of his scale. However, if Nanwang died—

If he died, no one in this world would remember the magnificent lives of Long Wang and Ye Kuang.

Nan Wangya simply didn't believe that Long Wang would still be thinking about Ye Cuo and Qingyun Realm after finishing Xi Lin.

The Dragon Lord who finally woke up would not be Long Wang, nor would it be Nan Wang.

"You have to find a way. No matter what, you have to find a way to ascend."

Nanwang held onto Zhong Wangsheng's shoulders with both hands and shook him vigorously:

"You must have a way. Qinghe said you have a way, so you must have a way! You don't have to wait for tens of thousands of years, nor do you have to wait for Longwang to return. You can ascend to the upper realm now!"

"I……"

Zhong Wangsheng was speechless and at a loss as to what to do.

"Fourth Junior Brother, calm down."

Du Xueling spoke up to stop Nan Wang's actions.

Nan Wang sat back in his original position in dejection, and his whole body collapsed visibly.

An Nuo drooped her ears and stepped on his thigh, hoping to give Nan Wang some comfort.

Du Xueling turned her gaze to Zhong Wangsheng: "I hope you can think about it again and see if there is any way to ascend using the existing resources."

Zhong Wangsheng thought about it again and again, and still shook his head: "Unless someone can reach the upper realm directly through Xilin like Yafu, be crowned as the Dragon King of Gods, and make all the immortals bow down to him, all other races will not be able to ascend in the dead world."

Lingzhi suddenly raised his little hand.

Amid the disillusioned gazes of everyone, Lingzhi's tender and clear voice rang out:

"Can only dragons wash their scales?"

Zhong Wangsheng corrected him: "Only a true dragon can wash its scales. A bastard like me cannot possibly start the scale washing ceremony."

Lingzhi tilted his head and said:

"Can we switch people over after we turn it on?"

The house was full...and silent.

This is a terrifying guess that only a rebellious spirit branch could think of.

"Ridiculous! You, you you..."

Zhong Wangsheng's defense was broken in front of everyone, and he almost cursed at Lingzhi directly.

Nan Wang's hand holding the rabbit began to tremble involuntarily.

He suddenly thought of something else.

When the Seven-Divine Exquisite Heart was still in Long Wang's body, it was not called the Seven-Divine Exquisite Heart, it was Long Wang's companion spirit.

At that time, the Seven-Honored Spiritual Heart and Longwang were one and the same. The future that Longwang could see through his divine eye could also be seen by the Seven-Honored Spiritual Heart. Not only could it see it, it could also analyze the reasons for future changes in a very rational way.

Compared to the Seven Secrets Exquisite Heart that was taken out alone, the Seven Secrets Exquisite Heart in Long Wang's body is the artifact that can truly predict the future.

At that time, Qi Liao Ling Long Xin said a very crucial sentence -

Ye Kuo is Long Wang's death.

However, apart from Long Wang himself and Nan Wang who had watched Long Wang's life, no third person would regard Xi Lin as death.

At this moment, is Long Wang dead?

Apparently not.

He was just washing his scales.

When he returns after washing his unicorn, won’t he still be Long Wang to Qi Liao Ling Long Xin, Long Ye, and the immortals in the upper three realms?

In this case, what exactly does the death calamity refer to?
