Those who soared into the sky were all familiar seniors from the Six Realms.
Lord Yanshan, Song Hexi, Qin Cangsong, Venerable Yuntian, Venerable Changliu, Su Xi, Venerable Dongming, Wu Gan, Pei Yuan, True Man Ningxuan, Elder Queying, Bai Qingcang, Wu Lian, Ling Chun, Lin Kong, Buddha's Son, Dragon Couple... and so on, the list is endless.
They came from all races of the six realms, each possessing great wisdom, and faced death with composure.
They said in unison, "We offer our bones and blood as a sacrifice to express our wish for this world to ascend to immortality."
The little black dragon was left behind, letting out a mournful roar.
Countless sacrificial cries intertwined with the dragon's roar, creating a breathtaking spectacle.
Song Siyao, atop the Heavenly Ladder, was speechless.
Qin Xi, who had just emerged from the weapon-forging stage, hadn't even had time to rejoice when he looked up and saw his father and countless powerful figures offering sacrifices.
She stood there, stunned and heartbroken, tears streaming down her face.
"father--"
Amidst the sorrowful cries of pain, Qin Cangsong in the sky couldn't help but turn around and give his pampered daughter a loving smile.
—Little Fairy Yuanyuan, you must take good care of yourself from now on and not make your father worry.
Afterwards, Qin Cangsong continued on his journey.
Qin Xi choked back tears, her hands trembling as she channeled spiritual energy into the newly forged divine artifact, "Soul Ferry! Go!"
The enormous boat-shaped object moved slowly through the air, carrying a powerful force that drew souls away.
She knew in her heart that this day would come sooner or later.
Wan'er possesses a miraculous elixir.
At the very least, we have to cover for Wan'er.
If the souls can be gathered together, Father and the ancestors will have hope of being reborn.
The senior figures, hovering in the air, looked at the enormous spirit ship and gave Qin Cangsong a joking smile.
I really envy you for having such a genius daughter. She's not only an outstanding heir, but also has the skill to forge divine artifacts.
As everyone gazed at the soul-ferrying boat, Baili Xijiang, who had always been driven away by his parents, also had a sudden flash of inspiration.
Helped up by Wu Ling, Song Tingwan, still feeling dizzy, also felt a sense of relief.
If her soul can be preserved, she can still save her.
Her vision blurred, and she tried to shake her head.
Even his mind and spirit were not mobilized.
She stared blankly at her predecessors flying towards the top of the Heavenly Ladder, and a tear inexplicably fell from her eye.
My heart was blank, filled with awe and sorrow, as well as anger at fate.
"...Is this what you wanted?"
The woman's voice was soft, and as soon as she finished speaking, the sky changed color instantly, and thunder and rain began to pour down.
At the same time, a vast and ancient sound, ethereal and majestic, resounded between heaven and earth.
Even if your soul and spirit are destroyed and you are no longer subject to reincarnation, would you still be willing?
The voice was calm to the point of being ruthless.
Then, a thunderbolt struck the spirit ferry.
The sound echoed through the clouds, splitting the massive shadow of the ship in two places.
Qin Xi was startled and instinctively flew up to stop her, but Jinghong grabbed her hand.
Song Tingwan shook her head at her with concern.
The realm above the sky is beyond their cultivation level to reach.
But the black dragon couldn't be grabbed by a single streak. In his haste, the dragon's shadow darted onto the Soul Ferry.
"Can't--"
"Boom—"
Before anyone could react, a bolt of lightning struck down, piercing through the black dragon's body and splitting the Soul Ferry in two.
Qin Xi coughed up a mouthful of blood and collapsed into Song Tingwan's arms.
The black dragon, which was soaring through the air, fell to the ground without warning.
Pulling itself out of the ground, Li Guang, who was a step slower than Lei, paused for a moment before swooping down. The black dragon clung limply to the sword like a rope, its fate unknown.
The dragon couple and Qin Cangsong cried out in grief, rushing swiftly and tremblingly toward their child.
In mid-air, the black dragon, now motionless, hung from the sword.
Song Tingwan could barely stand, her hands trembling as she held Qin Yuanyuan and stuffed countless Grade 9 pills into her mouth.
They even had the idea of using a divine elixir.
Upon investigation, it was discovered that the Soul Ferry was actually connected to Qin Xi's fate; the artifact was damaged, and so was the person.
His soul was shattered by heavenly lightning, and a fragment of his soul was lost, so no matter how many pills Song Tingwan fed him, he could not wake up.
Qin Cangsong was overcome with tears. He then took a deep look at the daughter in Song Tingwan's arms. This time, his resolve was even stronger. He turned and left with determination.
"This ascension will surely be successful! I beg the Goddess Pillow Sleep, after you have survived this tribulation, please find a part of Yuanyuan's soul."
Only after Song Siyao successfully ascends to heaven and saves the world will he have a long time to search for his daughter's lost soul.
He wanted his daughter to come back to life.
Meanwhile, a black dragon appeared, hanging from Li Guangjian's body, as the dragon couple tearfully pleaded for help.
Song Tingwan was numb with pain and took out the Soul Gathering Lamp without expression.
Try to gather souls.
As expected, even under the heavenly thunder, Baili Xijiang's soul was still gathered inside the lamp.
She breathed a sigh of relief, but her hands and feet felt numb and weak. After informing the dragon couple that she could save the soul, Song Tingwan collapsed onto the chair.
As my companions disappeared one by one, my spirits seemed to dissipate.
Fortunately, he had made a promise with his little apprentice to put a Soul Warming Pill between his teeth and that he must bite the Soul Warming Pill before losing consciousness should the apprentice be in danger.
The wrath of the heavens was too much for Baili Xijiang, a fragile dragon who didn't like physical training, to withstand.
Fortunately, his companions were all saved.
She appeared calm, but in reality, she was on the verge of collapse.
After witnessing the two juniors' misfortunes, the seniors flew into the sky.
His answer was a multitude of calm and resolute words.
"We are willing."
They were willing to die, their souls and bodies destroyed, offering their flesh and blood as a sacrifice to the Heavenly Ladder.
The four words spoken by the seniors in unison resonated like heavy stones, echoing between heaven and earth.
It shook the very souls of all living beings.
Countless seniors rushed towards him, and Song Siyao frowned, his eyes flashing dark red.
