The thick fog inside the cemetery enveloped the three figures of Ming Yu, Zhi Li, and Silver Wing like ghostly veils. The moonlight from the night sky poured through the clouds and mist, illuminating their faces like jade. This scene carried an eerie yet tranquil atmosphere, resembling an illusionary fairyland.
The ground trembled slightly, as if warning of an impending storm, causing unease in the hearts of those present. Even the deity Zhi Li felt a sense of oppression, leaving her deeply perplexed by the presence of such emotions.
Zhi Li carefully examined Ming Yu, only to see his black eyes shining with a cold light in the darkness, like the brightest stars in the night sky. However, those eyes were like an abyss, filled with indescribable secrets.
"Tell me, Ming Yu, what really happened to you back then? Why did you turn to the dark side, succumb to evil?" Zhi Li asked in an almost solemn tone, breaking her usual demeanor. Her question was like a sharp blade, instantly piercing the softest part of Ming Yu's heart.
Ming Yu The cold light flashed on his face, as if touched by something important. He stared deeply at Zhi Li, as if trying to see through her with his eyes. "Back then, I was a foolish seeker of power. I sought every means I thought could make me stronger, whether light or dark, good or evil. However, when I picked up that cursed sword, my fate was sealed."
Zhi Li couldn't hide her disappointment. "Just because of a sword?"
Ming Yu Closed my eyes, as if savoring that painful moment, "No, it's not just a sword. That sword is a trigger. When I picked it up, I felt like I had the world in my hands, like a god with unlimited power. I plunged the dark sword into the ground, releasing a sword aura that instantly split a mountain peak in half. At that moment, I felt invincible, the strongest of all."
"So, was that moment of pleasure worth it? Was it worth losing everything and becoming the person you are today?" Zhi Li questioned.
Ming Yu opened his eyes and gazed at Zhi Li, "If I had a choice back then, I would choose not to pick up that sword. But now, everything has been decided. I have already walked this path, and there's no turning back."
A hint of complex emotion flashed in Zhi Li's eyes, "Even so, you still have a chance to step out of this shadow. Not all mistakes are irredeemable."
Silver Wing suddenly interjected, "It's not that simple. The magic sword was forged by nine great demons, absorbing the resentment and hatred of countless creatures. It's not just a sword, but also a dangerous curse."
Silver Wing The tone is serious, and every word feels like a heavy stone pressing on everyone's heart.
Zhi Li Her eyes lit up as she asked, "So are you saying that Ming Yu's actions back then were actually influenced by that sword?"
Zhi Li's question clearly caught the attention of Ming Yu, and a surge of emotions slowly welled up in his deep eyes.
"Perhaps, but that doesn't matter now. Because I am the master of that sword, and I must take responsibility for it and everything I have done," Ming Yu responded after a moment of silence.
Feng Yan and Shue Chen stood silently on the side, feeling anxious about Zhi Li's fate. Especially Feng Yan, she glanced quietly at the blue stone tower, as if searching for clues to solve the problem.
" Ming Yu, do you remember that night in the city of dark clouds?" Silver Wing suddenly asked.
Ming Yu Paused for a moment, "The moon that night was covered by thick dark clouds, and the whole city was shrouded in darkness."
"Yes, on that night, you used that sword for the first time, cutting off the head of the Lord of the Dark Cloud City. Do you think that was your own will?" Silver Wing asked in return.
Ming Yu froze, as if re-examining their past self.
Zhi Li saw Ming Yu's hesitation and felt a slight tremor in their heart. " Ming Yu, there's still a chance to make amends. Perhaps the sword is the root of the problem, but you still have a chance to turn back."
Ming Yu looked up, a glint in his eyes as he took a deep breath. " Zhi Li, you're right. I can't let that sword control my destiny anymore. But first, I need to find a way to free myself from its influence."
Zhi Li nodded. "What about Silver Wing? Is there a way to seal or purify the sword, to rid it of the curse it carries?"
Silver Wing looked coldly at Ming Yu, "There is a way to purify that sword, but it requires immense power and determination. Are you ready?"
Ming Yu's iron-like face revealed a hint of determination, "I have made my decision. That sword should not exist in this world anymore."
Zhi Li A warm feeling rose in her heart as she felt that in Ming Yu's eyes, she saw the true self that had been cursed and obscured for many years.
But at the same time, she also pondered in her heart, why would Ming Yu face all of this so honestly?
Is it because he is no longer the Dark Lord of the past, or is it because he feels somewhat different when facing her?
However, Zhi Li knows that she needs more evidence and information in order to make a final judgment on Ming Yu.
"Have you really made up your mind?" Zhi Li couldn't help but ask.
Ming Yu took a deep breath. "I need to lift this curse, not just for myself, but for this world. And you, Zhi Li, are the only person I can rely on."
Zhi Li's heart suddenly trembled, "Why?"
"Because you are the key that can unlock all my troubles, maybe even you don't realize it yourself." A faint blue light seemed to flash in Ming Yu's pupils.
"Is it because I am the reincarnation of Ling Yan?" Zhi Li bit her lip, her emotions slightly fluctuating.
Ming Yu nodded slowly, "Besides that, there may be more factors at play that we are unaware of. But it cannot be denied that you are the reincarnation of Ling Yan, you possess the sword that can seal my soul, the ancient god sword, and..."
His voice suddenly became deep, "I can feel that you have some kind of special attraction to me, not just in appearance, but also on a soul level."
Zhi Li felt a little uneasy, as if something was not right. Perhaps it was because Ming Yu's words touched a deep corner of her soul. She sighed, "Do you have a way to lift the curse?"
"Yes, but the process will be extremely difficult, and it will require our cooperation. There may also be a risk to our lives," Ming Yu warned solemnly.
"Then we need a plan," Zhi Li began plotting. "To destroy that sword, we will need a powerful artifact or an ultimate spell. Any suggestions?"
Silver Wing furrowed his brow, "There is a possibility, that is to use the Primal Divinity Stone. This kind of stone has the ability to absorb and transform all evil energy, but the problem is that it is extremely rare, even in the world of immortals there are very few left."
Ming Yu listened and pondered for a moment, "The Primal Divinity Stone does indeed have such ability. I did see it in a ruin many years ago. If we can find it, perhaps there is a real possibility to purify that sword."
"Then where should we go from here?" Zhi Li asked.
Ming Yu pondered for a moment, "The ruins are located in the distant northern territory, known as the Frosty Divine Mountain. We must overcome many difficulties to reach there, and there are other unknown dangers waiting for us as well."
Zhi Li became serious in an instant, "If this is the only way to purify the curse, then we have no choice but to proceed."
Ming Yu looked at Zhi Li seriously and suddenly felt that all the difficulties became insignificant. "Alright, then let's go to Frosty Divine Mountain and search for the Primal Divinity Stone to purify this cursed sword."
"However, there is a small problem. You need to help me unseal the seal from this graveyard first."
Zhi Li Although she still has some doubts about him, she is now in the semi-divine form of Nuwa, and he probably can't change that.
After a while, she lifted the curse and went to capture another escaped Yuen Sheng.
Silver Wing smiled slightly, "Well, the plan is set. I'll go ahead and scout."
Silver Wing turned into a silver light and swiftly flew away, disappearing into the mist of the graveyard. Ming Yu gazed in the direction of his disappearance, a strange smile appearing on his face.
"I still don't quite understand, why are you helping us? What is your purpose in doing so?" Zhi Li put away the sealed curse and looked at Ming Yu with a cautious expression.
Ming Yu Taking a deep breath, a hint of scrutiny flashed in the eyes, then a sigh, "Perhaps, this is the arrangement of fate. You and I are destined to accomplish some things together."
Zhi Li Frowning, hesitating for a moment, finally decided to remain skeptical. "Alright, but I must warn you, if you have any conspiracy, I won't show mercy."
Ming Yu smiled and said, "Don't worry, you are the reincarnation of Ling Yan, I will pay special attention to your actions and thoughts."
Zhi Li relaxed slightly after hearing this, but remained alert. She lightly placed her fingers on the sealing rune and chanted softly. A blue light shot out from her fingers and slowly drilled into the seal.
As the incantations and spells worked, the runes on the seal disappeared one by one, finally shattering with a resounding boom, releasing a breathtaking light.
Ming Yu shuddered as if shedding a heavy burden. His aura changed, from restrained to unparalleled boldness, like a fierce beast released from its cage.
"Thank you, Zhi Li."
Zhi Li smiled slightly, "Now, how will you repay me?"
Ming Yu playfully smiled, "What do you want?"
Zhi Li temporarily let down her guard, gently supporting her relaxed fingers, took a deep breath, her eyes slightly deep blue, like an ocean hiding countless secrets.
"I'm not sure yet, but if I really want something one day, would you agree to it?"
Ming Yu couldn't help but think of Ling Yan, the woman he had once deeply loved and deeply hurt. A complex emotion flashed in his eyes, ultimately turning into a smile.
"It depends on what you want. But one thing I can guarantee is that you are so important to me, I won't easily refuse your request."
Zhi Li felt a warm feeling in a corner of her heart, but she still didn't dare to trust the Dark Lord who once dominated the three realms too much.
"So, for now, I hope you can fulfill your promise."
