Chapter 679 - 678: The Rakshasa Siblings Reunite, Going to Settle the Rakshasa Ancestor [First Update]
"So, I kindly ask all of you to make it easier for me."
Lin Heng’s tone was calm.
As for being afraid of the Holy Spirits inside? That’s naturally impossible.
Just as it’s always been said.
In the highlands of Qingqiu, there indeed exists those who can challenge the Saints.
But like Lin Heng before, to challenge is one thing, it doesn’t mean they can truly fight against the current Saints.
Now Lin Heng has reached the level of a living Saint; with absolute confidence, he could declare war on any highland of Qingqiu.
And the reason for peaceably persuading the beings within the Taichu Ancient Mine ultimately lies in the connection to Sun Wukong.
Of course, if they don’t regard Sun Wukong as a connection.
Lin Heng wouldn’t mind toppling this ancient mine.
Fortunately, matters did not head toward a worse development. Upon hearing Lin Heng mention Sun Wukong, a voice of bewilderment arose from within the ancient mine.
"What did you say?"
"It’s already one of yours? Has it truly reincarnated successfully?"
This should be a voice of an elder Holy Spirit, hoarse and giving a sense of timeworn while the hostility in the eyes of the rest of the Holy Spirits looking toward Lin Heng had dissipated significantly, replaced by nervousness and joy.
Lin Heng smiled subtly and said, "Lady Nuwa’s words count indeed; the Holy Spirit from the past has now reincarnated as the Chaos Spirit Monkey, named Sun Wukong in this life."
As he spoke, he waved his hand, ripples forming in the void.
After the ripples spread, some scenes of his past conversations with Sun Wukong in the Daoist Court emerged.
Unfortunately, Qingqiu Heaven and Earth is special, isolating itself from the outside world.
Otherwise, Lin Heng could directly project the current scenes of the Daoist Celestial Court through deduction.
But even this is sufficient.
The Holy Spirits have special perception, confirming that Sun Wukong is the reincarnation of their kin from the past.
This elated them, making them sigh with emotion.
"Lady Nuwa, as expected of a Sage of Merit, always keeps her word."
The elder Holy Spirit sighed, then said, "I remember now when Lady Nuwa came to the ancient mine, a future observer crossed the long river of time, and that person was Your Excellency."
"It seems that the connection with Little Stone in the future was destined in the unseen."
"Take the Immortal Extinction Sword with you."
Dust rose in the ancient mine, and with a clanging sound, the Immortal Extinction Sword was thrown out by the Holy Spirit, landing in Lin Heng’s hand.
"If possible, let Little Stone come to see us..." a voice inside spoke lowly, with a hint of cautious entreaty.
"I will," Lin Heng nodded, then clasped his hands, "Farewell, everyone."
With those words, he turned and left the Innate Saint Realm.
When the beings from various highlands saw Lin Heng leaving the Innate Saint Realm unharmed without going through a massive battle, they couldn’t help but show astonishment.
"Those with fiery tempers in the Taichu Ancient Mine didn’t lay a hand on him?"
"This guy..."
"How did he do it?"
Clearly, those who occupied the Innate Saint Realm held great renown in Qingqiu.
Lin Heng emerging unscathed was beyond many people’s expectations.
...
After leaving the Innate Saint Realm, Lin Heng went to another highland.
There lies the Endless Fire Realm.
Within the Endless Fire Realm.
Demon Master Kunpeng also beheld that person’s steps.
"How should we respond?"
He inquired of East Emperor Taiyi in the sea of fire, whose gaze was calm as he spoke indifferently, "Since he has come to our doorstep, besides returning it, what other choice is there?"
Demon Master Kunpeng nodded, "Indeed."
In the next moment, with mists swirling, the figure stepping on the Purple Gold Dao had already appeared on the highland.
"I’ve come to retrieve the sword."
Lin Heng, straightforward and concise.
Kunpeng, whose wings shadowed the sky and stood within the sea of fire, chuckled, with feathers undulating, an Immortal Sword flew toward Lin Heng.
"Daoist Lord, keep it safe; don’t misplace it again," Demon Master Kunpeng said.
Lin Heng nodded. This trip was smooth, but instead of leaving after receiving the sword, he turned his gaze toward the depths of the fire realm.
Demon Master Kunpeng narrowed his eyes slightly, "Why, does this Daoist Lord have other matters?"
Lin Heng maintained a calm demeanor, "This poor Daoist has no issue, but this poor Daoist’s friend wishes to see his sister, so, I must trouble the one inside to make this possible."
As he spoke, behind Lin Heng appeared a spatial channel, and Black Rakshasa emerged from within.
"Is my sister truly in there?"
With his strength, he’s naturally unable to probe the fire realm, thus uncertain at the moment.
Before Lin Heng could speak, a dignified voice rang from the depths of the fire realm.
"Yes, she is here."
It was East Emperor Taiyi, and with his words, the endlessly fiery realm parted like a sea, revealing the scene inside.
A woman of noble bearing appeared under the blazing flames.
She walked out step by step, trembling slightly, tears of clarity sliding down her face.
The moment Black Rakshasa saw Princess Iron Fan, his eyes turned red too.
"My sister!"
"Brother Wang!"
These two sibling from the Rakshasa Race, separated by yin and yang for hundreds of thousands of years, in this moment, were enveloped by endless longing.
This Princess of the Rakshasa Race had already guessed upon seeing you appear in Qingqiu that her brother Wang must have also entered; she’s been waiting for quite some time," Demon Master Kunpeng remarked toward Lin Heng with a sense of sentiment.
"Yes, fortunately, they’ve reunited as siblings," Lin Heng replied.
Demon Master Kunpeng nodded, suddenly asking, "Aren’t you curious as to why we kept her here by force?"
Lin Heng remained composed, "The Rakshasa Race is nearly extinct. Naturally, she cannot be allowed to die."
Demon Master Kunpeng was taken aback, then chuckled wryly, "So, you know what the Rakshasa Race’s so-called revival truly entails."
Lin Heng didn’t deny it, "Candle Dragon has told me the mission burdened upon every generation of the Rakshasa, claiming to revive their clan; it’s merely their ancestor wanting the blood of descendants to regain their peak."
"Indeed."
Demon Master Kunpeng cast his gaze toward the distant Great Dark Asura Highland, "Every Rakshasa who ascended there believed they could revive their kin, and the guide from the World Mirror indeed pointed there."
"But unfortunately, what they didn’t know is that the kin could be revived, but... only one can be revived: their ancestor."
"Countless lives of descendants spent to bring back one ancestor, how could the Rakshasa Race not decline?"
Demon Master Kunpeng sighed, looking at the siblings, commented, "They still think it’s the Fox Race that caused their parents’ deaths, not realizing that apart from those perished in the Great Calamity, the rest of the Rakshasa Kingdom became sacrifices for their ancestor."
"If we hadn’t intervened, that Princess of the Rakshasa would have perished a hundred years ago."
Lin Heng nodded, saying, "I will go deal with that Rakshasa Ancestor. If it doesn’t die, the Rakshasa Race will face total annihilation."
