Si Xingqing looked at Xiao Shenji with sincere and earnest eyes; at this moment, Xiao Shenji was her only hope.
Upon hearing her cousin reveal the truth, the little goddess hesitated for a moment before readily agreeing: "It's no big deal, I'll help you steal it."
"Thank you, Aye." Si Xingqing breathed a sigh of relief and thanked him with gratitude.
The little goddess nodded generously and said, "You're welcome."
Then she asked in confusion, "But where did you get the bone-changing technique, cousin?"
There are no records of such spells in the divine realm, so they must be forbidden arts.
"I saw this method in an ancient book in the Land of No Return."
Upon hearing "the Land of No Return," the little goddess fell silent as if she understood.
That's a sad story for my cousin, so let's not talk about it.
A moment later, the little goddess left the Imperial Princess Palace and headed to the Divine Lord's Hall.
The patriarch was grieving when his beloved youngest daughter arrived just in time. Her tender comfort and profound filial piety deeply moved him, leaving him completely unaware of the hand behind him…
…………
Night falls
Forbidden Land of the Underworld
"Greetings, Princess Goddess; greetings, Water Goddess."
"Um."
Without saying a word, the little goddess directly used the key to open the Netherworld Gate.
Following the light, the two arrived at the innermost part of the forbidden area.
Looking inside, Si Xingqing immediately saw the aloof girl bound to the black stone by invisible chains.
"Little sister."
Upon hearing the voice, Xiao Ning suddenly opened her eyes, her face filled with shock: "Sister? Cousin Shenji? What are you doing here?"
Without time to explain, Si Xingqing quickly approached Xiao Ning, took out a dagger and slashed Xiao Ning's wrist. She then repeated the action on herself, pressed the wounds of both hands together, and used her divine power to reconnect their blood vessels.
"Sister, what are you doing?"
Xiao Ning sensed that Si Xingqing was about to do something foolish to save her, and quickly stopped her, saying, "Sister, stop."
Si Xingqing continued working, glancing at Xiao Ning from time to time, and said, "Little sister, your older sister won't let you die."
Xiao Ning tried to break free of her wrists, but the black stone behind her suppressed her, preventing her from using her spiritual power.
The little goddess spoke slowly, "Cousin, have you thought this through? Do you really want to dig out the Supreme God Bone? If you give it to her, you will no longer be a god."
"Of course, as long as Xiao Ning can live, I am willing to give everything. What does a divine body matter?" The voice was firm and powerful.
What!
"No."
Xiao Ning cried out, "Sister, you can't!"
Her face showed panic. Her elder sister was a favored daughter of heaven. How could she dig out divine bones?
If she loses her divine bone, she will become a useless person, not even as good as the lowest-ranking fairy. What will my sister do in the future?
She dared not think about it.
“You are the Supreme Goddess, and the Supreme Divine Bone is a rare find, occurring only once every 100,000 years. You cannot do this.”
"Xiao Ning, all I want is for you to live."
"No, I will bear the consequences of my own actions. I don't want you to sacrifice yourself for me, sister. Please, don't do anything foolish."
As Xiao Ning spoke, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
Si Xingqing smiled gently, "Don't worry, you won't die from losing your divine bones."
He then closed his eyes, activated his mental technique, and silently recited the Bone Transformation Mantra.
Upon seeing this, the little goddess immediately used her divine power to create a barrier to protect Si Xingqing. The bone-changing process would take a long time and should not be disturbed.
After her initial sadness subsided, the goddess on the other side belatedly realized that something important seemed to be missing. She immediately checked her storage ring...
After searching herself thoroughly, she roared, "Where's my forbidden area key?"
A moment later, a furious roar erupted, as if the earth were collapsing.
"Unfilial daughter—"
Si Xingqing opened her eyes, her black pupils turning golden, and a golden thread appeared between her wrists and Xiao Ning's.
"The time has come."
"Sister...no, please, no!" Xiao Ning cried out in anguish.
She tried to stop it, tried to break the gold thread, but to no avail.
Si Xingqing smiled slightly at her, and then without hesitation summoned an enormous dragon-shaped divine power, carrying an extremely terrifying aura.
The vast divine power was directed at himself.
"No, elder sister."
Under Xiao Ning's shocked, tearful gaze, Si Xingqing used her divine power to dig out her own bones.
The excruciating pain of having her tendons and marrow ripped apart spread throughout her body, causing her to break out in a cold sweat and her face to change drastically. She gritted her teeth to keep from screaming.
She didn't want Xiao Ning to feel sorry for her.
The pain was excruciating, and even with her strong will, she couldn't help but groan in pain the moment the divine bone left her body.
"ah!"
With a shrill scream, the divine bone was forcibly pulled out of her body. Her body swayed and she could not stand steadily. She forced a stream of spiritual power into her legs to barely stabilize herself.
"Sister... Sister." Xiao Ning's voice was extremely hoarse.
"Cousin, are you alright?"
Si Xingqing nodded to the little goddess, then raised her hand to prepare for a second spell.
The little goddess stopped her: "I'll help you."
Without the slightest hesitation, a vast amount of divine power poured out, aimed directly at Xiao Ning.
Xiao Ning was suddenly pulled in by divine power, and the next moment, she felt the same excruciating pain as her older sister, as if her bones were being ripped out.
However, her body was much weaker than Si Xingqing's. Just as her half-broken bones were about to leave her body, she fainted from the pain.
With the bone removed successfully, Si Xingqing Ning recited the Bone-Changing Incantation again, and the Little Divine Maiden swapped the positions of the bone and used divine power to reintegrate them into the bodies of the two individuals.
This process was just as torturous as removing the divine bone.
Xiao Ning, who was in a coma, was completely unaware of what was happening.
Si Xingqing gritted her teeth and endured the pain of her bones slowly retracting and penetrating her blood vessels.
The entire process, from the start of the bone replacement to its successful completion, lasted several hours.
