Si Qingyu had absorbed heavenly thunder several times, but never before had it been so targeted and came straight towards her, with such a vast and powerful momentum.

She lost all five senses for a few breaths. When she heard the voice again and saw the scene in front of her, everything around her had changed.

In the human world, the earth was dyed blood red, the fields were full of starving people, charred corpses, and broken limbs could be seen everywhere.

The sky was filled with flames of war and the sea was stank of rotting corpses.

That is... the mortal world that has lost all life.

An unprecedented emotion arose in her heart, and subconsciously, she realized that it was anger and sadness.

Something dripped down from the sky. She reached out to catch it and when she looked closely, she saw that it was blood-red drops.

That is……

She heard herself say, "Tears of the gods."

The blood color in Si Qingyu's eyes gradually spread and soon filled her entire field of vision.

She seemed to have fallen into a blood-red vortex in the deep sea, falling continuously with seemingly no end.

When she opened her eyes again, she saw herself standing on the Qingjing Peak of Renxin Sect.

To be more precise, she came to the Renxin Sect when it was besieged by demons a hundred years ago.

The demons were brutal and bloodthirsty, and they beat the Renxin Sect's medical practitioners, who were not good at fighting, without any chance of resistance, and then they brutally killed them.

The blood dyed the earth red, and the roars and cries of pain and sorrow continued.

Si Qingyu saw a familiar figure among the few people who were still alive. It was her master Hua Wuying.

The Hua Wuying in front of him was not as thin as he became later. At this moment, he was a young man full of vigor and vitality. He was tall, handsome, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. Even among the younger generations in the world of cultivation, his demeanor was unmatched.

At this moment, his brows were stern and his eyes were filled with sadness and determination.

He was covered in blood, with his head raised and kneeling on the ground, watching the spiritual power gradually dissipate in the air.

Bai Wuchang and Hao Wuqing knelt beside him with sad faces.

Bai Wuchang caught a little of the spiritual light that Master transformed into with a choked voice and said, "Big Brother, is Master really dead?"

Hua Wuying heard this, slowly turned around, looked at Bai Wuchang, and said with a gentle tone as always, smiling, "As long as we remember Master, as long as the Renxin Sect still exists, Master will always be here."

If you ignore the tears and blood in his eyes, you would really mistakenly think that he is not sad at all.

Hao Wuqing gritted his teeth and said, "I will fight the demon cultivator."

"Stop." Hua Wuying's voice was not loud, but it was intimidating enough. "Third brother, Master is protecting you with his life, just to make sure that both you and I survive. Although the demons were seriously injured by Master, you can't rush forward and defeat high-level cultivators with brute force."

Hao Wuqing knelt dejectedly in front of Hua Wuying. The nearly 1.9-meter-tall man lay on the ground, crying inconsolably.

"Big Brother, I hate it! Master is dead, and my fellow apprentices and sisters are all dead! What should we do?"

Hua Wuying used his spiritual sense to reach into his storage bag and looked at the heart of the plants that exuded vitality.

That was the treasure of the clan left to him by his master, the Heart of Plants.

If it could be refined and fused...

Just as Hua Wuying was thinking, everything around him fell silent.

Hua Wuying's cultivation had reached the Nascent Soul stage, and his five senses were extremely sharp. He saw a stream not far away, flowing as if it was fixed by some mysterious force, the shape of the waves was still there, but the water was not moving.

Hao Wuqing's eyes were open, tears streaming down his cheeks, and when they were about to fall to the ground, the tears stopped.

At this time, the only ones who could move were Hua Wuying and a woman walking towards him.

A woman who can tear space apart and appear out of thin air.

Hua Wuying's pupils reflected her appearance, and he was surprised, but his expression remained calm.

This time, Si Qingyu saw clearly the little girl who had the same face as her from the perspective of the soul.

However, the girl's pupils were dark blue, her hair was also dark blue, and her skin was almost translucent white, like an elf that had fallen from heaven to earth.

She heard the little girl say to her master, "I can help you integrate the Heart of Plants and Trees. Your cultivation will be able to enter the Tribulation Crossing Stage in an instant, without any thunder tribulations or other obstacles."

Hua Wuying showed no surprise at her appearance or her words, and just asked calmly, "What's the price?"

The heart of plants and trees is the spiritual treasure from the beginning of heaven and earth.

If the heart of the plant is used as medicine, a seriously injured person can be cured in just a few breaths.

If it is refined into the body, it would be equivalent to giving the person a huge tonic. It is very likely that the person will be too weak to receive the tonic and will burst.

There was no emotion in the little girl's voice, but every word she said was heart-wrenching.

She said calmly, "Human spirits are too weak to withstand the spiritual energy of the spiritual creatures of heaven and earth.

The price is that you, who could have ascended to become an immortal, will be destroyed along with your soul after you have completed your cultivation and overcome the tribulation, and will be devoured by the heart of plants and trees.

By then, you will become part of the heart of plants and trees.

However, once you have integrated the heart of plants and trees, you will immediately reach the tribulation stage. Do you understand?

That means you don’t have much time left and you could die at any time.”

Hua Wuying laughed, "The Tribulation Stage? That's great."

The little girl continued, "In fact, you have a good fate, good luck, cultivation, and merit. Although the time has not come yet, I can help you ascend immediately.

Do you want to be an immortal?

As long as you ascend, the world of cultivation and your sect will have nothing to do with you anymore.

Being a good immortal can also bring benefits to the world.

Unfortunately, my power is only enough to create you as an immortal king, and you won’t have so many companions in the mortal world. "

Hua Wuying took out the Heart of Plants from his storage bag, held it in his palm, and said firmly, "Please fuse the Heart of Plants for me."

The little girl just looked Hua Wuying up and down, and asked in confusion, "Why? Everyone in this world of cultivation is cultivating immortals, why don't you want to ascend to become an immortal king? Or is it because I can only send you away by yourself, and you are afraid of loneliness?"

Hua Wuying: "If I can't save the people behind me, I will be sorry for the teachings of my master and for protecting them with my own death. I will be sorry for the admiration and trust of my junior sisters and brothers, and I will be sorry for the sect that all the cultivators have worked so hard to defend.

Then what’s the point of my ascension?

If I can't protect the land beneath my feet and let the demons get their hands on it, how can I protect the world you mentioned?"

The little girl looked Hua Wuying up and down for a long time, then said calmly, "What exactly is the human heart?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she opened her five fingers, and the Heart of Plants was absorbed by the lightning power at her fingertips. Then, she controlled the Heart of Plants and injected it into Hua Wuying's origin.

Hua Wuying's expression was extremely painful, but he always kept himself conscious.

Seeing this, the little girl was a little surprised, "Hey, you clearly chose the Way of Kindness and practiced the Way of Medicine, how come you were catalyzed by the Heart of Plants and Trees to become the Way of Poison?

The meridians were broken and reorganized. What happened? Am I already so weak? "
