They fell to the ground.
In the distance, damp clouds blend together, and birds stretch their necks and entwine.
Even the gentle breeze stirred a fine shiver, causing the flowers and blades of grass to huddle together.
Soul-wrenching.
It brings a violent sensation that is hundreds of times stronger than that of the physical body.
They both fell into ruin.
In this grand celebration, we recognize each other as irreplaceable and unique.
In the final bloom, Cang Liuyu pinched Shen Zhiyi's face and made her look at the butterfly fluttering its wings beside her.
Will we remember this butterfly forever?
He placed a tender and precious kiss on her cheek, "Not any of the past ones, nor any of the future ones, just the one flying right now."
He was asking her.
Will I remember this moment?
They completely and utterly belong to each other in this moment.
Shen Zhiyi turned her head and met his kiss.
Yes, it will.
"Forever remembered, never forgotten."
They kissed.
Between heaven and earth, we give each other our complete selves.
No room for compromise.
...
Sword Sect.
The monks gathered together and discussed the matter with righteous indignation.
"How could Cang Liuyu, the Ruthless Sword Master, secretly form a Daoist partnership?"
"With such behavior, does he have any regard for the ancestral teachings?"
"It's one thing if his own path is destroyed, but now the Demon Realm is eyeing him covetously. As the strongest person in his sect in terms of magic, what if his cultivation is drained and he can't deal with the Demon King, causing chaos in the world?"
"That's so irresponsible!"
"I thought he had a firm Dao heart, but I didn't expect him to be so easily deceived by the female cultivator from the Hehuan Sect!"
"Elder, when he returns, you must give him a good scolding!"
The words had barely left his mouth.
A tall figure walked in.
Cang Liuyu glanced around at the crowd.
The scene fell silent.
Everyone fell silent, not daring to breathe.
They lowered their heads and exchanged glances, still shaken.
Didn't they say that Cangliu Yu was bewitched by that female cultivator from the Hehuan Sect, who drained most of his cultivation, causing him to drop to the Nascent Soul stage?
How can there still be such a strong sense of pressure?
How terrifying...
"Elder," Cangliu Yu said calmly, his gaze returning to the head of his seat.
"How dare you come back!" The Sword Sect elder stroked his beard, slammed his hand on the table, and roared, "The Sword Sect is the head of all sects, bearing the great responsibility of the world. How can you act in such a way? Do you have any sense of morality or the people of the world?!"
"Do you still remember, the Path of Ruthlessness forbids forming Daoist partnerships!"
Cang Liuyu stood there, his lips pressed tightly together, "Then I'll be the first."
The elder clutched his chest in anger, "Don't you care about your future?!"
Cang Liuyu's brow twitched slightly.
He recalled Shen Zhiyi leaning against him, asking him with concern, "Will I ruin your path to immortality?"
"How could that be?"
He looked at her face, and his heart was filled with boundless love.
It's not that my future is completely ruined.
Instead...
Because I love you, my future is bright and limitless.
Cang Liuyu pulled himself out of his memories.
He raised his eyes, looked at the elder, and said earnestly, "In the past, I was only focused on breaking through realms and could not see any colorful things in this world. The future was bright, but there was no light at all."
"Now that there is light ahead, I will follow the light."
That's what I think.
"It is also the true meaning of the Great Dao."
He flipped his hand and made a hand seal.
An immense pressure instantly enveloped the entire sect.
The sword mound hummed.
The world is in motion.
At that moment, they both heard a distant call.
That comes from the oldest precepts of the Ruthless Path.
The complex principles of morality clearly penetrated everyone's consciousness in an instant.
Cang Liuyu withdrew his magic, his expression remaining indifferent.
Everyone suddenly came to their senses.
I was utterly horrified!
"Tribulation Transcending Stage?! How could it be the Tribulation Transcending Stage?!"
This is not a drastic drop in cultivation level.
It's clearly a huge surge!
The elder was also shocked. He stroked his beard and stood up hesitantly, "You...you've advanced to the early stage of Tribulation Transcending?"
"Could it be that you have discerned the opportunity?"
How could there be such a terrifying breakthrough?
Is this even human?!
Cang Liuyu's calm voice rang out in the hall, yet it carried a powerful and authoritative force. He said, "Shen Zhiyi and I are of one mind. During our dual cultivation, we discovered the opportunity of the Great Dao. Not only was our cultivation not damaged, but it also advanced step by step."
"Now, I have advanced to the early stage of Tribulation Transcending, and she has also crossed the late stage of Deity Transformation."
"Gentlemen, does anyone have any further objections?"
He glanced around indifferently.
Everyone was speechless, stunned on the spot.
The Sword Sect elder exclaimed in surprise, "Throughout history, no Daoist couple has ever reached such a level, unless..."
“Unless our hearts are in perfect harmony and our love is so vast that it can shelter the world,” Cang Liuyu replied, his expression still calm.
Complete love.
Complete trust.
The elder, feeling dizzy, sat back down in his chair.
This is... a predestined fate.
All the cultivators were shaken to their core.
To reach this level, one must be completely free of distractions, even willing to sacrifice one's own life for the other.
On this basis, one must also have the well-being of all people in mind.
Unexpectedly, Cangliu Yu actually met such a sincere Daoist partner.
It still comes from the promiscuous Hehuan Sect!
That's incredibly lucky.
"I've come today to ask the elder for something," Cangliuyu said. "I remember the elder has a mask called Forbidden Enlightenment. Could you please give it to me?"
The elder exclaimed in surprise, "What are you going to do with that?"
The Forbidden Enlightenment Mask is used to punish cultivators; once worn, it can imprison their cultivation in place.
This will prevent them from getting promoted.
Cang Liuyu said indifferently, "I'm afraid that if I comprehend the Dao too quickly, I'll ascend to immortality prematurely."
"I want to stay in this world and wait for her to be with me."
Elder: ...
All cultivators: ………………
Why don't we send someone to take him in?
Cangliu Yu obtained the Forbidden Enlightenment Mask.
The messenger token suddenly moved.
His brows furrowed.
It was Qingqing who was calling him!
Could it be... that we've encountered danger?
With a flick of his wide robe, he vanished from the spot.
