Chapter 847: I-Is This Love?
a pillar of Nirvana Flame that was hundreds of meters high rose above Yue Yang’s head.
The Fire Phoenix that burns everything.
Flew around the pillar.
It paused as it reached the top, and then it zoomed downwards.
It turned out that the surging Power of Resentment was mostly eliminated.
Pandora, who had lost all reason, had restored her supreme and majestic divinity, and felt furious when she sensed that someone was going to contend against her. The divine light in both of her eyes shone in anger, and the divine power that was capable of destroying the sky and the earth swept towards Yue Yang. The Nirvana Pillar of Fire that stood hundreds of meters high was almost like a mere needle, which was rather insignificant in comparison.
Yue Yang retreated thousands of meters away, his body shape remaining unchanged.
The Pillar of Fire formed by the Nirvana Flame however, did not diminish due to the divine power of the other party. After all, it is the Nirvana Flame that will never go out. Even if it was up against a God, it cannot be destroyed.
“Are you going to oppose me too?” Pandora floated to Yue Yang angrily. Her endless destructive calamity of her divine power and her 100,000 years accumulated Resentment Power combined to form an irresistible torrent, rushing towards Yue Yang.
“Create!”
Yue Yang’s Creation Domain expanded rapidly, and the Eternal Wheel formed under his feet.
The disastrous divine power and Resentment Power that could very well destroy the entire Desire Valley slowed down its advancement abruptly.
It was like a flood had encountered a giant steel gate and was blocked. Although the peak had not really been reached, more destructive forces were being formed. Yet, the momentum of the impact has been temporarily slowed. The more it advanced, the slower its speed, and finally, it stopped less than one meter in front of Yue Yang. Yue Yang, however, was not optimistic as he knew that this state would not last long. Besides his soul being impacted by Divine Consciousness, the accumulation of divine power outside was extremely fast. Once the Eternal Wheel disappears, the result will be a disaster!
So he persevered hard for ten minutes.
The Eternal Wheel under Yue Yang’s feet dissipated.
The Divine Power of Calamity and the Resentment of one hundred thousand years gushed over. Yue Yang made a gesture of condensing the ‘World-Exterminating Wheel‘ with both hands, but even so, he was unable to stop the force.
If he uses the World-Exterminating Whee, he can definitely split the calamity power and hit Pandora.
But even if he did, he probably wouldn’t be able to save himself.
Maybe, he needed to have a trip to Nirvana[1]!
T/L Note: [1] Some people would use it for the final stage of Buddhism, some think it’s another wall of saying the afterlife. In here, you can refer to the afterlife or a double meaning as his Nirvana Flame.
I’ll just die then!
Isn’t death another form of rebirth?
If I can’t even comprehend the obstacle of death, how can I understand the Higher Innate Invisible Sword Qi? Talking about how to enlighten the Divine Innate Realm? God is an immortal existence, only weak human beings are afraid of death! If I want to reach that state, I must go out in the realm of being ‘human’ and reach the realm of being a ‘god’. Although it is a bit early, is this not an opportunity to climb up the ways of cultivation?
If I don’t succeed, I will become benevolent.
Whether I can transcend myself, to transcend my original realm and to jump into the Divine Realm, depends on this very moment!
Yue Yang slowly closed his eyes. At this moment, he chose to believe his epiphany.
He also believed in the unique and special physique that the Phoenix Sisters had brought him.
The phoenixes can undergo Nirvana Reincarnation.
As the lucky one who has the guardianship of the Phoenix Sisters, can I also achieve Nirvana Reincarnation?
Let go of the thoughts, give up lust, put aside all distracting thoughts and escape the shackles of the human realm. Surpass yourself and leap to the Divine Innate Realm that you saw before…just when Yue Yang was ready to meet death and use this to surpass his own inherent realm, all of the energy disappeared abruptly. The divine power of calamity and the terrifying 100,000 years Power of Resentment disappeared.
He opened his eyes and saw that Pandora had regained her senses.
She was looking at him in tears.
“I-I almost killed you! Why is this happening? Am I the murderer, for your prediction of death?” Pandora burst into tears, “I can’t bear to let you go, but it was the reason that killed you. The first time I ever wanted something, I ended up killing with my own two hands… Now, I understand. I finally understand why they call me Calamity— it turns out I am really unlucky!”
“It’s not that serious!” Student Yue Yang smiled slightly, which was as bright as the sun, “I’m still alive now, aren’t I?”
“If I came back to my senses a second later, you would have been dead,” Pandora’s face was a sobbing mess.
“In fact, you are now awake, and maybe I will use this chance to surpass myself. Who knows what can happen!” Yue Yang had a little regret in his heart, but it was overshadowed by fortune. Facing death, it seemed very peaceful back then, but in retrospect, it was a lie to say that there was no fear at all. The devastating divine power of calamity—that was definitely not a joke. Except for the sword styles used by the Heavenly Sword Goddess herself, it was greater than all the powers that Yue Yang has seen in his life. After seeing the Divine Power of Calamity, he realized the huge gap between man and God.
“I almost killed you, and yet here you are, comforting me!” Pandora cried even harder.
“You don’t want me to cry with you, do you?” Yue Yang implied that it was impossible.
“You are always like this… The better you are to me, the less I will be willing to let you leave here, and the less likely you will be to live… Now, what are we going to do?” Pandora was amused by Yue Yang’s odd expression. Now, she cried and laughed, getting so emotional to the point where she couldn’t calm down at all.
“Let me think about it,” Yue Yang felt that he needed a bit of time.
“There is no time— there is only half a day left. My death prediction is still in effect, and that means you will most definitely die!” Pandora screamed as her emotions fluctuated.
“Please, you just need to say it once; repeating it has no use at all,” Yue Yang smiled calmly: “You should be optimistic and think like this: there is still half a day. It’s not one minute, so what was there to be afraid of? There is plenty of time to think of an alternative route. Besides, even if there is only one minute left, that is still one minute to live, isn’t it?”
“I can’t be optimistic!” Pandora tried to be more serious, but in the end she just burst into laughter.
“The way you are crying is not pretty at all…” Student Yue Yang took out a tissue and gently wiped away the tears for her.
“Hurry, we have to think of a way!” Pandora felt very much comforted, but she wanted to lose her temper on him. This kind of inexplicable emotion made her feel strange. What’s the matter with me?
“All right!”
Yue Yang thought for a while.
Pandora waited, every passing second felt like years to her, and more than once she wanted to urge him to be faster.
But she was afraid that it would interfere with his thinking, so she had to wait anxiously on the sidelines.
Finally, Yue Yang finally spoke and asked tentatively, “Do you already remember the past? Your past? Just the things from before when you had a body? It doesn’t necessarily have to be a lot, even some memory fragments are fine!”
Pandora shook her head, “No. I might have remembered something when I lost control, but I can’t remember anything now that I’m sane.”
Yue Yang somewhat guessed that she would answer like this.
As long as she is angry, Pandora will restore the memory of the Goddess of Doom. But usually, she was just a natural airhead whose memory has been sealed.
Seeing Yue Yang remain silent, a trace of sadness flashed in Pandora’s eyes.
She was sad.
She couldn’t help him with such a small task.
She couldn’t do anything but watch him walk on the path of his death. What’s even more terrifying was that in the end, she was the one who killed him with her own hands. A hundred thousand years’ that passed was spent remaining in a deep sleep before she finally met an eccentric man. For the first time, someone could make her heart beat, someone could make herself feel a comfortable happiness; for the first time, someone could make her feel sad, and someone made her feel unwilling to give up… For the first time, someone made her capable of laughing and crying; for the first time, someone could make her feel hatred and regret… Is- is this love?
Is this the kind of love he was talking about? It was muddled and indescribable but seemed to be very clear in his heart?
What should I do? What can I do to keep him alive? According to the prophecy, he still has half a day to live, which is certainly not wrong. He is a powerful existence in the entire Desire Valley and no one can kill him except me.
In this case.
Pandora secretly made a decision.
She stopped crying, but showed a smile that could pale even the Heavens and the Earth, “Yes, there is still half a day, so we should cherish it. Let us have a relationship for the rest of the time! Tell me, what do couples do? I don’t have a body, so I can’t achieve your goal of pushing me over[1], like you said. It’s a shame, but it’s okay, maybe we can do something else.”
T/L Note: [1] In case anyone forgot, this means intercourse.
“Who said that you can be pushed over when you just fell in love? Girls have to love themselves!” Student Yue Yang taught Pandora, “When you first fall in love, you can only hold hands at most.”
“But I don’t have hands!” Pandora sighed.
“…” Yue Yang forgot about this.
“Then let’s talk about some other things that couples can do!” Pandora put aside her sadness. She became happy, and her beautiful eyes were full of longing.
“It’s boring, really, and I don’t know much about those. Generally, couples usually go to a place for a date, a park or some quieter place with few people. They also go to a western restaurant to have some steak or a coffee shop for a drink. After a few dates, they would go out to play, have a barbecue or watch a movie. The ones who go for karaoke, dance, eat supper and then open the room when they just meet; that’s not really true love. At best, it can be regarded as a solution for the physical needs of both parties! Girls must love themselves— indulging in sex, it is easy for flowers to become wilting flowers, and those wilting flowers will become fallen flowers. You see, the failed here in Desire Valley are all indulgences of sex!” Student Yue Yang made a gesture, “You and I are not a couple, you can only say that we are friends who have much in common, so of course it doesn’t count. I’m giving you a lesson, although there is no tuition fee!”
“What do you usually do with those women you like?” Pandora was a little curious.
“Cough!” Student Yue Yang almost said something unsuitable for children, before he finally coughed, “There are many things to do, such as studying runes together, practicing together, planting flowers together, reading books together, experimenting together, swimming together, etc…”
“Let’s do it once, then!” Pandora straightened her eyes and flashed brightly, eager to try.
“Hey, we are not lovers,” Yue Yang refused.
“It doesn’t matter now, well, maybe in the future. Let’s just give it a go, there is no time left after all,” Pandora felt that the remaining half of the day should be cherished.
“Leave some time for me to write a few wills! Maybe, I will be like you when I die, and I won’t mind no matter what you want at that time,” Student Yue Yang didn’t bother to accompany her to go crazy. Although he might transcend through death, there was also a chance for him to achieve Nirvana Reincarnation. But in any case, it was necessary to write a few letters to Wu Xia, Tigress and the others. Plus, An An and the others as well! What Yue Yang worried the most was not death, but being sealed in this Desire Valley, just like this Pandora.
He summoned the little half-elven slave who had been living in the Grimoire World to take care of her own life and explained the matter briefly regardless of her wailing.
He placed the Three Realm Compass in the hands of the slave, “Go back and find Wu Xia. Let her find a way to find the Night Empress, Zhi Zun and the others. Don’t cry, I won’t die, maybe I might just be sealed in this place. Until I find out how Pandora died and solve her Resentment, then separate the Resentment Power from the Law Power, perhaps I could leave by then. Will you not listen to me anymore? You have to complete the task, do you understand? Your task is very important to me!”
The little half-elven slave resolutely refused to obey his orders. She desperately cried in Yue Yang’s arms, “Let this little slave die for you! The master must not stay here and this little slave will never leave the master! If the master dies, this little slave will stay here and stay with you forever!”
Even if Yue Yang glared at her, the little slave looked at him bravely.
With tears flowing down her face, the ever-obedient girl clenched her small fists, resolutely refusing to listen to his persuasion to leave and showed an unprecedented stubbornness.
“I said, I will be fine. I just want you to bring over a letter!!”
“Little slave will never leave!”
“You idiot, how many times do you want me to say…”
“If the little slave says she won’t leave, then she won’t leave. Wahh, don’t drive the little slave away, please? Master will be fine and the little slave won’t leave— will always be together!”
Pandora was dumbfounded. For a long time, she muttered to herself, “I-Is this love?”
