Chapter 395: 216. All earthly concerns are fulfilled, a mundane body dealing with the matters of deities (6.3K - Seeking Subscriptions)_2
The knife that killed, sliced delicately and thinly off the fish, some of the flesh still slightly transparent, before being put into the bubbling porridge steaming hot.
Ling had grown old, unable to eat much anymore, but she could barely manage some porridge.
As she sliced, Ying’s expression suddenly turned somewhat somber.
Being a Pseudo Xuanwu Practitioner, she was very familiar with the physical conditions of ordinary people...
Therefore, she knew that Ling didn’t have much longer to live; everything in her body had begun to wither, her vitality and blood had dried up, nowadays she slept more than she was awake during the day, being able to go out and bask in the sun had become a challenge.
And after Ling’s death, she too would live alone, waiting, until her demise.
This divine fusion was by no means easy; she knew Song Cheng meant well, but... even if Song Cheng’s fusion process was fast, it wouldn’t outpace their impending deaths.
The sunlight shone dimly, the hot winds from the vast volcanoes whipping up the surrounding woods like waves of the sea.
In the raging wind, Ying sighed softly; Ling, sensing something, slowly opened her eyes, only to see the rising dust suddenly gather and collapse, forming a human silhouette.
That silhouette...
She was so familiar with it.
The old and beautiful maidservant opened her eyes wide, disbelieving, then called out the name that haunted her dreams in a trembling voice, "Song Cheng..."
"It’s me."
The frenzied wind formed a voice, as if the heavens and earth were speaking.
Song Cheng took a step, closing the distance from far to near.
To ordinary people, he was already a deity.
Ying also turned around impulsively, disbelievingly exclaiming, "Song Cheng! You... you’ve succeeded?"
Song Cheng nodded, then said, "Don’t talk for now, I’m taking you to a place."
Immediately, he used the Spirit Servant Technique, reached out into the void, and snatched the souls of Ling and Ying into the Nether Pagoda (where the original nine ghosts had fused, leaving it now vast and empty); then he also brought Song An and Zhao Lingxue, who had until then been waiting at the Yin Residence, into the Nether Pagoda.
He skillfully performed the Secret Technique, transforming the four Divine Souls into Ghostly Souls.
This kind of Secret Technique normally shortens the lifespan of the practitioner, hence nobody practiced or used it, but for Song Cheng, it was an extremely useful Dharma Method.
Three mortal souls and one Pseudo Xuan, all instantly stepped into the Entry Level realm of Mysterious Level Grade D.
Ying, Ling, Song An, and Zhao Lingxue were all overjoyed.
And after Song Cheng explained, the four of them realized they had been reborn... from now on, their lives would be transformed.
Afterwards, Song Cheng took out the Mysterious Level Techniques, letting the four choose at will.
Song An and Zhao Lingxue, although they had no physical bodies, if they practiced normally, they could still perform possession, and due to his Secret Technique, they could even use trees and strange rocks from the mountains and rivers as their bodies, becoming existences akin to "Mountains and Rivers Spirits."
The bigger his world became, the greater the power of these "Mountains and Rivers Spirits" should be.
After doing these things, Song Cheng briefly checked on Mo’s fusion progress, only to find that the fusion was going on quite ordinarily, but had progressed only a tiny fraction... To complete thoroughly, it was feared it would take several hundred years.
Song Cheng left the Ice-Fire Wasteland and went to Ice Fire Mountain, enlightened Yuan, turned her into a Ghostly Soul, thereby raising her cultivation limit.
Thus, even though she continued to wait on Ice Fire Mountain for Ting, her life would not be tedious, but rather like undergoing secluded bitter cultivation, with clear direction and hope.
After finishing these things, Song Cheng headed towards the present-day Darong without stopping.
He turned Madam Tong, An Chenyu, Yu, Su Mengzhen, Zhao Hua, Ouyang Chuchu, and a number of friends and family members into Spirit Servants...
In the future, even if these Spirit Servants died, their Divine Souls could immediately fly back to the Nether Pagoda.
And they could briefly obtain terrifying improvements in talents through Visualization.
As for lifespan, they could now have twice that of the average Profound Level practitioner.
While an Entry Level Ghostly Soul could live to see nine cycles of the sixty-year Jiazi, they could live to see eighteen.
All tragedies of life, old age, sickness, and death were thwarted.
After turning An Linyuan, An Chenyu’s adopted girl, into a Spirit Servant, Song Cheng took a long breath... From now on, he was no longer so concerned about what would happen to Darong.
After doing all this, he spent another half year with his friends and family...
...
...
Winter arrived quickly.
The scheduled Entry Level ceremony was also imminent.
In the Darong Dynasty, snow fell thickly, covering thousands of houses and palaces, piling up in the long streets.
At this time... it had actually only been about half a year since Song Cheng’s return.
The Melting Flame Divine Edge dominated these lands, and the Darong Emperor’s tyranny was still vivid in memory, it was the beginning of this year...
Ordinary people were still astonished that such a strong deity was casually slain by Song Cheng.
Many forces, including the Barbarian Tribes, came from afar to the Imperial Capital, their emotions varied, wanting to pay homage to Song Cheng, because in their view... the being to be venerated and admired in this land in the future was still undoubtedly Song Cheng.
But... they simply couldn’t find him.
Song Cheng also had no intention of appearing ever again.
To put it in layman’s terms, this was "God doesn’t care."
However, actually a long time ago, Song Cheng had really wanted to mingle in the human world as a mere mortal, silently playing many roles, experiencing many characters.
But to survive, he had to become stronger, and after becoming stronger, he found that the mortal world could no longer stir the slightest emotion in him.
Now, what could cause ripples in his heart were no longer mortal beauties, but beings like the "Kunlun Divine Girl" Lian Chanxi...
Even the purpose of "love and passion" had changed.
Now, his yearning for mating was not for "procreating offspring," but for "perfection," for truly forming a whole with his other half.
Perhaps, in the future, he might become a mortal again.
After all, with a high enough realm, reincarnation was not impossible.
