She mused, perhaps the Academy Head truly loved the Mother Goddess, but his love was too selfish, too possessive! It had driven him to lose himself completely. Such love, the Mother Goddess disdained and would never accept!
Long Li Xing was thoroughly displeased with his gaze! He strode over, wrapping his arms around Jin Bao Er's waist, his eyes cold and filled with murderous intent!
This action instantly enraged the Academy Head, his eyes turning blood red! He charged forward madly!
"Ah!!!"
At the same moment, Jin Bao Er and Long Li Xing simultaneously waved their hands. Under the combined might of the power of time and the power of majesty, the old man's body was instantly shattered...
He completely dissipated, leaving not even a speck of dust behind!
The Blue Star Academy Head, who had rampaged across the universe for years, died so casually! He didn't even have a chance to resist the final blow!
Love, truly a terrifying and tragic thing.
She thought this, then looked back at the handsome profile of the man beside her. In any case... she was not that kind of person.
The world returned to normal, but the danger had not receded...
The recent battle had been too fierce, ultimately attracting the attention of many outsiders!
She felt a touch of helplessness. The divine sword was not yet complete! The two of them, working with the divine race, were truly not enough!
But the cultivation world, having just endured a cataclysm, could not withstand a second.
"Let's go. What must be faced, will eventually come."
Long Li Xing nodded. The timing was not yet right, but he feared nothing!
As the two figures vanished into the sky, the red object in Feixier's hand, which had just begun to take the form of a sword, suddenly quivered, as if sensing something! It was urgent and excited!
The sudden development startled Feixier, nearly causing him to drop it!
Just as it was about to break free, the golden bell above suddenly glowed, emitting a blinding golden light! Simultaneously, a clear and stern reprimand buzzed through the air!
"Behave yourself! Your master is waiting for you to save them! If you truly care about them, become a divine sword and kill all enemies!"
The iron sword paused, then gave up struggling! It resignedly lay in Feixier's hand.
Feixier hadn't even recovered from the realization that the golden bell possessed a spirit when it began to berate him!
"Look, look at what? Hurry up and refine it?!"
Feixier: Well... immortal artifacts and masters are both fiery and crude! Truly, birds of a feather flock together!
At this moment, he couldn't help but retort a couple of times!
"When refining artifacts, one must be extremely cautious and focused. Haste will not do!"
After a while...
On his left, a colossal white tiger stared at him with fierce eyes. On his right, a magnificent fire phoenix glared, flames snorting from its nostrils. In the middle, a cute little girl bit her lip, looking pathetic. Above her head, a golden bell immortal artifact loomed menacingly...
Yet, at this moment, the divine sword in his hand had only just begun to take shape!
He was truly under immense pressure!
Meanwhile, outside, Jin Bao Er and Long Li Xing, the moment they appeared, were met with the cold face of the divine race's Emperor Yun, and a vast crowd of others surrounding them nearby.
"Hmph, you can hide quite well, can't you?!"
Emperor Yun snorted coldly, his words accompanied by immense divine power! He seemed to be certain they wouldn't escape this time!
It seemed their power had been restored.
Jin Bao Er was unfazed. Her indifferent gaze swept across everyone, finally settling on the divine race leader. Her expression was a little complex, then she spoke calmly.
"Emperor Yun, the divine race was wrong!"
As these words left her lips, Emperor Yun's face changed drastically! He immediately unleashed a torrent of divine power and rule force!
Long Li Xing, holding Jin Bao Er, dodged instantly, while simultaneously counteracting with his rule force! A burst of a thousand feet of fireworks erupted, smoke filling the air.
When the two landed, Emperor Yun remained aloof, his expression having somewhat improved! His anger had not subsided...
Jin Bao Er looked at him, then gently released Long Li Xing's hand.
However, the man refused to let her approach danger. He held her tightly, his purple eyes dark and intense!
Jin Bao Er shook her head, looking at him with determination.
"Trust me!"
She would never be a clinging vine, relying on others for her existence. Even if she wasn't the Mother Goddess, it was the same.
Long Li Xing stiffened. He immediately understood her meaning. His lips thinned, but he still released her hand...
Jin Bao Er didn't look back, and began to walk towards Emperor Yun. The divine race members looked at her with arrogant disdain, their pride unwavering even in the face of the Mother Goddess's reincarnation.
She spoke, stopping when she was five meters away from him. Her tone was calm and indifferent.
"Emperor Yun, the Mother Goddess was also wrong!"
This time, he did nothing, merely frowning at the woman before him who bore an increasing resemblance to the Mother Goddess.
Jin Bao Er continued.
"She should not have distanced herself from the divine race, nor given the Blue Star a demigod body! She certainly should not have fled directly, leaving you in charge of the universe! You... fundamentally! Do not deserve to be gods!"
The words "do not deserve to be gods" echoed throughout the surroundings! Everyone heard this and looked on in disbelief!
Did she... not fear death?
To declare to the Divine Emperor's face that they were unworthy of godhood? To provoke divine might??
Even the Mother Goddess in her prime would likely not have dared such a thing!
Indeed, Emperor Yun was furious, his face contorted with rage and killing intent! His fists clenched the scepter, his white and gold robe unable to conceal his ferocity!
"You... shut up! Who do you think you are? You are merely a vessel for the Mother Goddess's reincarnation! I can destroy you at any moment!"
Before his words had finished, he raised his hand and unleashed a rule force, overwhelming divine might accompanied by absolute killing intent sweeping towards them! The immense fury of the divine race poured forth, directed entirely at this one person!
"Boom, boom, boom!!"
As the power surged, Jin Bao Er's face remained cold, neither dodging nor moving! Her gaze was indifferent yet firm!
Then, she abruptly raised her hand...
"Slap!"
The divine might scattered!
The rule force rebounded, striking directly at Emperor Yun's face!
The sudden turn of events stunned the assembled divine race members and the others.
Even Emperor Yun was stunned for a few seconds, slapped soundly by his own power!
Silence fell upon the entire scene.
After a long moment, Emperor Yun found his voice, his eyes wide as he stared at her, his face filled with disbelief.
"You... divine might? You are... No! Impossible! You are not the Mother Goddess!"
Jin Bao Er nodded, smiling faintly!
"Yes, I am not the Mother Goddess. The Mother Goddess you've been searching for is about to vanish! You want to obliterate my soul? Haha! Fool, after being Divine Emperor for so many years, you can't even see through the trajectory of cosmic destiny! Haha, you truly... do not deserve to be a god!"
She too had only just realized it. The Mother Goddess was also disappearing! Reincarnation was merely her final effort to leave true gods in this universe! What resided in the Cosmic Temple were not cosmic deities at all, at best they were all divine attendants chosen by the Mother Goddess!
A race that could only depend on the Mother Goddess to possess endless years of existence!
Once they left their true master, they couldn't even maintain their lifespan! And the Mother Goddess... she couldn't exist forever either.
