She recalled the scene, where the Young Master used his own blood to draw a sword talisman. His fair face became even more pale and without color of blood.

It was then when he told her sternly that if the situation did not necessarily demand it, please do not use it.

Given that the people wanted to destroy the temple and her divine power was fading away like waves, it seemed like it was the time.

The wishes of the masses from before now all turned into curse and hatred, hatred as she could not chase away the demon, hatred because she did not admit defeat and hatred because she offended the demon. The hatred swallowed away her divine power, and it pained her greatly.

She felt it before, but as a deity, she needed not to care about pain.

At this moment in time, she felt it, and it was saddening.

Qi Sanguang still held the drum sticks high, and he was still buried under the crowd. She saw the door of the temple was destroyed, and the sill was stepped on. The leading crowd then finally reached the statue and they were raising their hoes up high, and wanting to destroy the statue.

She closed her eyes and with an intent in her heart, the sword talisman that was lying around quietly exploded suddenly.

A ripple-like vibration spread in the temple, and everyone inside the temple was convulsed out and fell on the muddy ground. A lot of the people’s eyes started to show some confusion and they all had fear in their heart. Ultimately, the Goddess of Grains was still a holy deity, unlike them, the commoners.

When hatred had turned into fear, the female deity could feel her pain disappearing, and that her divine power was no longer fading. However, the black rope was still limiting her actions.

A sword ray began shooting out like tiny strings out of the temple. It was as fast as lightning, going by the heavy rain. Its target was not Yanxu, but the black rope on the female deity. As if it was slicing tofu, the black rope was sliced into different parts.

The deity went back into the air, and her body was surrounded by a sword ray which was shining.

Staring at the sword ray which seemed to have spirituality, Yanxu laughed, “It is just a sword talisman. Did he leave that for you?”

The female deity bit her lip and said nothing. The divine power was gathering and it could explode anytime.

Yanxu did not care about what she was doing, and said, “He is indeed not here. It seems that he has indeed gone elsewhere.”

The female deity said, “So what?”

Yanxu laughed, “Nothing. After confirming this, I roughly understand – he even left stuff for you?”

He looked at the beautiful deity casually, and a killing intent appeared suddenly.

As the sword ray erected and pierced towards Yanxu, Yanxu disappeared all in a sudden, and the sword ray only managed to hit the top of the city walls. The top then turned into just stone dust, and with the rain, to stone sludge. The remainder of the city wall was quite a shocking sight.

And then Yanxu was already in a short distance with the female deity. He extended his hand towards her chest, where the divine heart was situated. He could open the door to the divine region through that.

The female deity’s body was shining, and it was a representation of the divine power circulating in her body at a high speed. She wanted to burn herself to bring out her strongest power.

But she saw Yanxu’s deep eyes.

Then she felt a bit distracted and the divine power began to circulate slower.

The sword ray turned around and broke through the wind and rain towards Yanxu’s heart. Yanxu allowed the sword ray to go through his body without realizing anything. The sword ray then rushed towards the heart of the Goddess of Grains.

The sword ray, as though carried spirituality, came to a halt. A hand as fair as a white jade used a trick which was beyond human’s imagination, wrapped the sword ray around the fingertip. The ray was trapped alive.

The sword ray struggled to escape, but then it got trapped even harder. It began to lose its light.

The sword ray eventually just surrounded around Yanxu and then into his finger.

Yanxun smiled unnoticed. The Deity Vanquishing Sword was useless against him.

As Yanxu’s body expanded and contracted in a sudden, there was the sound of frying beans. The female deity knew clearly that Yanxu had destroyed the sword aura with some sort of special technique.

Even the sword talisman written by Young Master’s blood had no effect on him.

Suddenly she felt a coldness in her heart. Unknown to her, Yanxu’s hand was holding a transparent glowing ball, and at the same time his other hand formed talisman trail and the trail was inserted into the glowing ball. The glowing ball expanded into a door, and the building inside looked exactly the same as the temple.

The female deity did not understand how he managed to open the path to her divine region.

Yanxu turned into an illusion for a while, and then he had already completed the entry and exit from the divine region. There was a crystal ball in his hand which contained clouds of black Qi – it was Supreme Heart Demon Chant.

Both of them fell from the sky, and the divine heart which he threw away still remained in the mud. It had lost its shine.

He stared at the crystal ball in his hand, and evil Qi returned to his body.

As he kept the Supreme Heart Demon Chant, his body became more solid and the feeling that he was in in existence had disappeared. He became a more horrifying figure.

His eyes then fell onto the crystal ball again. With Shen Lian’s mana, if he could succeed, while he would not have a Sky Demon’s body, he could have improved further to gain a better understanding of the Taixu Strategy.

At that moment, there appeared a storm within the crystal ball and it was spinning rapidly.

Yanxu finally showed a bit of surprise from his usually calm face, he could not believe it, “How can you be willing to do this?”

The glaring light-colored rays appeared out of Yuguan, and they swallowed and destroyed everything around them. The scariest thing was that the city wall disappeared entirely, and the ground turned into a mud swamp.

A sword ray flew in from far away and into the mud. A black shadow was revealing itself from the swamp. As the black shadow popped its head, a blood sword ray would appear out of nowhere and tore it to pieces.

The black shadow then dispersed into multiple black dots and some of them landed on the people who had fainted from the convulsion.

The rain stopped altogether and a soft cough was heard. Shen Lian appeared together with Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liyun said, “The Free Form Incarnation is indeed the most miraculous incantation in the world. Even after you gave up your mana, you still can’t force him into a corner.”

“It is normal. My founding master has been after his tail for a long time and even he could not eliminate him.” While Shen Lian said that, he had a regret in his heart. If the last attack was not sword ray but a technique that could suppress the Sky Demon, Yanxu would not be able to run away.

Ye Liuyun gazed ahead at the people who had fainted and spoke softly, “It is possible that he hid underneath the hearts of these common people, should we kill them too?”

Shen Lian waved his hand and said, “He has a secret technique, whereby he can make use of the anger of the living indirectly to sneak into our hearts. While we can defend against it, it is going to be troublesome, and in fact, he will not stay here for long.”

“Why?” Ye Liuyun asked.

“For him to survive till today, he must have put survival in the first place, else it will not be possible.” Shen Lian glanced at the muddy Yushui, which was akin to the world, full of dirt.

When the river was calm, it would be clear; but once there was a ripple, it would turn muddy – just like how human hearts behaved. When calm, there would be kindness; but when stirred up, all kinds of contaminating and despicable thoughts would appear and cloud the bier.

Real Daoist could stay calm even in messy situations. The same clean state was akin to that of the void – regardless of how lowly the mana was, once one could understand this point, one could then get freedom of the heart and be unlimited. One would have high hope to attain Dao.

Shen Lian gave up the mana that could suppress the Supreme Heart Demon Chant, but he felt relieved. The cultivation experience could be gained back, but the state where there was no obstacle in one’s heart could not be met easily.

Ye Liuyun could tell Shen Lian’s evolution. Despite not having the top cultivators’ pressure or horrifying aura, he felt peaceful and calm, like a lamp in the night, warm and comfortable.

The temple of the Goddess of Grains was being repaired. When the Goddess of Grains regained her consciousness, she realized she was placed in the warm wishes of the masses, and her divine power kept growing.

When she opened her eyes, she faced the warm gaze of the Young Master in front of her.

Shen Lian said, “Thank you.”

Even though there were just two words, she felt whatever she had done was worth it. She felt happier than being a deity who was worshipped. She knew what this feeling was – the commoners called it love, and it was a theme that penetrated through birth, old age, sickness, and death, and was an important element of the secular mortal world.

She spoke softly, “I didn’t actually help you much.” She wanted to call him Young Master but she did not manage to. She did not understand why.

Shen Lian was not too concerned with the formality and he said, “Do you want to punish the people of Yuguan for how they have treated you?”

She was surprised, “But they are worshipping me again, and even more sanctimonious than before.”

She could clearly feel the faith of the worshippers from the wishes of the masses, and an element of fear. The wishes of the masses provided were stronger than before, but she did not feel too happy about the upgrade in her divine power, as, since birth, she had seen one of the most powerful people on heaven and earth.

After she had seen the ocean and the big river, she did not feel the streams were any wider.

“Don’t you hate them?” Shen Lian glanced at her and asked.

“No.” It came from her heart because she could not. It was like a long time ago when an ivy was living off her, taking her nutrients and clinging to her but eventually, it wilted and turned into dust. She felt an indescribable misery then.

“It is a good thing,” Shen Lian sighed.

Shen Lian stood forward and pointed in between her brows, and it was then she realized she was still in the statue and there was nobody in the temple.

She saw the sea, and in the middle of the sea, there was an island. A celestial mountain was located on the island, in between the cloud and smoke.

“This is Qing Xuan. After Qi Sanguang recovers, let him go over.”

“Can I go too?” The female deity’s bright eyes were looking at Shen Lian.

“When you can leave this place, come and find me. By the way, do you have a name? I can’t call you by your deity name,” Shen Lian laughed.

“No.”

“Then I will give you one. Since you are born out of the woods, you will be Lvluo.”

“Mm.” The female deity accepted the new name and she was feeling slightly infatuated. If she could become a human, it would be great, as she would be able to everywhere she wanted to.

When she was daydreaming, Shen Lian disappeared.

In the wind, one could hear the songs:

“Lvluo had the fortune to meet the jade tree, and both of them were shining brightly.

There were two Zhenrens underneath, and they too flew as if they had wings.

My heart was excited and I intended to jump into the clouds to chase after them.

The green peak of Xiyue.

The greenery of the stone room was connected to the sky.

There was a recluse in the room.

His hair and beard were all white.

He took on the journey with a stick.

And he taught me to forget about words.”
