Chapter 75: She Shattered the Void
The Cultivation World entered winter again. With only about three months left until the Evergreen Convention, Qi Huang felt that her Spiritual Sense had reached the peak of the Shentong Realm and she would break through soon, so she wasn’t worried at all!
‘As long as I can break through to the Heavenly Punishment Realm, let alone these so-called geniuses, even if the real bodies of those few monsters from Zhongzhou come, I will let them know what a true monster is!’
Qi Huang thought with ambition. She was fearless now!
Of course, except for feminization!
Qi Huang recalled the psychological impact of feminization on her. Her brain quickly calmed down. If even her psyche turned into a woman’s, what was the use of being strong? Wouldn’t she end up throwing herself into a man’s embrace voluntarily in the future!
Qi Huang imagined herself getting married and having children, shuddered, and continued to perform a complex ritual that was too difficult to pronounce. She wanted to quickly figure out what happened next. It had been more than half a year since she last saw Lu Yao transform.
In fact, Qi Huang had also seen Cheng Ling’s memories several times during this period, but that woman had never dreamed, so she didn’t know Lu Yao’s subsequent situation.
Heaven rewards the persistent. On this night, Qi Huang finally saw Lu Yao again through Cheng Ling’s “dreamscape”!
…
Lu Yao stood proudly on the mountaintop. Snowflakes flew into her eyes, dark clouds covered the sky, and the earth was shrouded in boundless darkness. This was all caused by the Yin Energy she released, indicating how terrifying she was now.
Even so, the vortex in Lu Yao’s heart continued to tirelessly generate resentment. This resentment was like a super strong magnet, attracting the Yin Energy from heaven and earth to strengthen her zombie body.
Because of this, Lu Yao’s physique soared. Every slight movement would cause the space to collapse. This world could no longer contain her existence.
Lu Yao looked at the several huge rifts she had torn in the sky. They were pitch black inside, with only stars twinkling, mysterious and profound. She had tried to enter and explore them several times, but in the end, out of caution, she suppressed her inner impulse.
Due to her fear of the unknown, Lu Yao dared not shatter space easily, so she could only stay put, minimizing damage to the space. However, as her body continuously strengthened, this action became less effective.
Qi Huang’s consciousness possessed Lu Yao. At this moment, she truly felt what power was. The world in front of her seemed as fragile as a mirror. She could only hold it carefully in her palm, otherwise, it would shatter with a single careless move. In comparison, she herself in reality was not even as good as an ant.
After an unknown amount of time, Lu Yao suddenly discovered something strange. As long as she didn’t look at the bloodstain mark on her face for a long time, the rotation speed of the vortex in her heart would gradually slow down, and the released resentment would also decrease!
‘Hmm?’
A flash of inspiration struck Lu Yao. She carefully took out a handkerchief and covered her cheek. Although her movements were gentle enough, the surrounding space began to crackle, with thin cracks spreading outwards like a spider web.
Lu Yao felt a bit helpless, but she didn’t pay much attention to it. According to her experience, these spatial rifts would heal over time. The several huge rifts in the sky, which were now a bit smaller than before, were living proof.
Lu Yao continued to pretend to be asleep. As time passed, the rotation speed of the vortex in her heart indeed began to slow down, and the amount of resentment released also decreased. Naturally, her body’s absorption of Yin Energy began to slow down.
Lu Yao removed the handkerchief from her face again. As she saw the bloodstain on her face, the experiences of her past life clearly flashed before her eyes. The vortex in her heart began to rotate at high speed again, spewing out resentment like a chimney in a rural kitchen.
Lu Yao quickly covered her cheek again, and the speed slowed down again!
‘As expected!’
Lu Yao’s lips curved into a slight smile. She finally understood the secret of her body.
Qi Huang was also greatly surprised, but after thinking for a moment, she understood what was happening. This bloodstain was shed by Lu Yao when she died, condensing all her resentment. After not seeing it for a long time, her heart began to calm down, and her resentment naturally weakened. Once she saw it, the injustice of her past life reappeared in her mind, and her resentment naturally came rushing out again. It was like hanging a carrot in front of a horse’s eyes. As long as the carrot was there, the horse would have infinite motivation to run forward. As long as there was no carrot, the horse would naturally stop.
In simple terms, this bloodstain was the motivation for Lu Yao’s heart to continuously generate resentment, which was why she kept getting stronger.
Qi Huang was able to understand because, as a cultivator, she was very familiar with evil spirits like zombies.
After an unknown amount of time, all the Yin Energy in the world was absorbed by Lu Yao. However, Yin Energy continued to pour out from the rifts in the sky to replenish it, indicating that the outside world was still filled with Yin Energy.
To stay in this familiar time as much as possible, Lu Yao kept covering her face with a handkerchief, and the vortex in her heart gradually stopped rotating. Moreover, she kept releasing Yin Energy to slow down the rate at which her body was strengthening. As a result, the Yin Energy content in this world continuously increased. The earth, due to not receiving sunlight for many years, had snow and ice that never melted throughout the four seasons, evil spirits emerged successively, and the living environment for humans continued to deteriorate.
Seeing this, Qi Huang couldn’t help but think of the Cultivation World in reality. The two were surprisingly similar. The only difference was that the Cultivation World had cultivators who could barely conquer the harsh environment, while this world did not, so people could only wait for death.
Lu Yao’s strength was unfathomable. With her senses alone, she could perceive the situation of the entire world, but she did not soften her heart. This was because she was now a zombie, and her heart contained no other emotions besides resentment.
Moreover, there was nothing worth cherishing in this world for her. On the night her father died, she buried him alone. None of those so-called relatives, friends, and neighbors came to help.
In short, her miserable experiences not only took her life but also completely wiped out her kindness. After all, only with a soul could there be seven emotions and six desires.
Lu Yao sat there motionlessly on the mountaintop, feeling immense confusion. She didn’t know what she should do. Should she continue to take revenge on heaven?
Lu Yao looked up at the sky. The thick dark clouds could not block her powerful senses, so the five slowly healing spatial rifts were clearly imprinted in her eyes.
“If this is the so-called ‘heaven’, I have already torn several large holes in it, but from beginning to end, it has remained silent, like desecrating a corpse. Is it really necessary to take revenge?”
Lu Yao thought this, her heart becoming increasingly confused.
Although Lu Yao tried her best to suppress her strength, her physical strength soon reached a critical point. Even doing nothing, she collapsed the surrounding space and fell into it.
Lu Yao floated in the dark deep space. She looked around, and all she saw were sparse stars, profound and desolate.
Lu Yao moved her limbs and found that there were no fluctuations in the surrounding space. It was obvious that the strength of this world surpassed her original world. This might be the only fortunate thing, at least she could move freely from now on.
Lu Yao sensed carefully and soon detected a star not far away that also had high mountains, flowing water, flying beasts and crawling creatures, and people like herself.
Lu Yao felt an inexplicable sense of closeness in her heart, so she flew towards that star. When she got closer, she was surprised to find that among the people here, there were some who could fly to the heavens and burrow into the earth.
Lu Yao observed quietly and found that these people were just ants compared to her. However, to be safe, she found a remote mountainous area and landed.
Lu Yao passed by a small village and found that the villagers were all cheerful, as if something good had happened.
Lu Yao paid attention secretly. Because of the language barrier, she could not understand what the villagers were discussing.
Lu Yao left the village and walked aimlessly. During her journey, she met some more people and found that they all had smiles on their faces, as if it were the New Year, and they occasionally looked up at the sky.
Lu Yao looked up at the sky. Those were the five huge rifts she had torn open in her original world. They had not yet fully healed.
Lu Yao’s heart grew more confused, and she wondered if these people’s happy events were related to the sky she had torn.
Lu Yao couldn’t ask due to the language barrier, but just as she was passing a small stone bridge, more than ten men with weapons blocked her path. The leader, with a rough appearance, raised his long saber towards her and spoke something fiercely.
Lu Yao didn’t understand, but she wasn’t stupid. The other party was clearly a robber or something similar.
Lu Yao was a zombie now and knew nothing about being soft-hearted. Her figure suddenly disappeared from the spot, and her fingernails were like sharp scythes of death, instantly harvesting the lives of the bandits. Wherever her blades passed, the space was clearly cut.
When Lu Yao reappeared, the more than ten bandits were touching their necks as if they had just been beheaded, and then they fell to the ground in terror.
Lu Yao looked at the blood flowing from a man’s neck and suddenly felt a craving for it. She grabbed him and began to suck, and the man’s life experiences from childhood to adulthood began to appear in her mind. This was a special ability of zombies – reading memories!
The memories that Lu Yao read were not complete, but after sucking all the blood, she also mastered the language and basic information of this world.
Qi Huang also indirectly learned about this world. It was a place similar to the Cultivation World, called the Five Elements World.
In the Five Elements World, there were also people who cultivated using the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, those who could fly to the heavens and burrow into the earth, and they were also called cultivators.
Lu Yao continued on her way. After a while, she passed another village and went in to inquire about the situation. Of course, before that, she had hidden her extraordinary features, put away the resentment in her eyes, and retracted her fangs and nails.
“Why are we happy? Don’t you know?”
An old woman asked doubtfully.
“Why should I know?”
Lu Yao retorted even more confusedly.
“That’s right, you’re still too young and don’t understand anything! Look at those large cracks in the sky. According to the cultivators, they are constantly absorbing the Yin Energy of our world. Before long, we will be able to see the sun every day, and crops will yield two harvests a year. What’s there to worry about not having enough to eat?”
The old woman’s face revealed a look of longing.
