Ye Guan looked at Cirou without speaking.

Cirou asked, "Are you not angry?"

Ye Guan calmly explained, "I can't defeat you."

"I'm curious," Cirou smiled and asked, "If you can defeat me, what will you do?"

Ye Guan shook his head and asked back, "Lady Cirou, is it that fun to mock me?"

Cirou looked at Ye Guan without speaking.

Ye Guan said, "I agreed with your statement about how I had never considered Cijing's situation. Don't worry, I won't let her down again."

"Is that so?" Cirou sneered, "Sounds great, then."

Cirou's expression suddenly turned ugly. "Did you just sound me out?!"

Ye Guan instantly breathed a sigh of relief. Cijing was still alive!

The stone weighing down on Ye Guan's chest had finally vanished. He had guessed that Cijing was still alive, and he had made that assumption because of the fact that Cirou and Cijing were sisters.

Cirou didn't seem like she was grieving despite Cijing's death, and Ye Guan also didn't think that Cirou would let Cijing die just like that.

"Do you want to know how she's doing right now?" Cirou asked.

Ye Guan stared intently at Cirou.

"How is she?" he asked, "Is she okay?"

Cirou shook her head and replied, "She wants to die."

Ye Guan's eyes welled up with tears, and he felt an inexplicable pain in his heart.

At the same time, he made a certain vow to himself.

Cirou stared at Ye Guan and asked, "What are you going to do?"

Ye Guan clenched his fists and said, "I'll handle it myself."

Cirou looked at Ye Guan without saying anything.

The two continued on their way. After a while, Cirou suddenly stopped walking. An array was standing a few hundred meters away from the two.

The array was in a circle, and it covered an area of several kilometers. The incomprehensible symbols were crimson in color, looking as though they had been written in blood. fre(e)novelkiss.com

"Go there," said Cirou.

Ye Guan started walking toward the array without any hesitation.

"Wait!" Cirou called out.

Ye Guan stopped and turned around.

Cirou stared intently at him and asked, "Are you not afraid that I'll harm you?"

"I'm still useful to you, right?" Ye Guan responded, "So there's no way you'll let me die."

Cirou grinned at Ye Guan's reply. "You got it right."

Ye Guan nodded lightly before continuing his journey to the array.

Swoosh!

Cirou vanished and reappeared in front of Ye Guan.

Ye Guan’s expression changed, but before he could react, Cirou's finger was already on his forehead. An inscrutable wave of energy burst out from her finger and suppressed him in an instant

Ye Guan froze like a stone statue.

"You'll have to absorb the power of the True God later, so I need you to be as relaxed as possible. To do that, I will have to knead your muscles," Cirou smiled before lifting her fist and swinging it, plunging it into Ye Guan's stomach.

Boom!

Ye Guan’s expression distorted from pain, but Cirou wasn't done just yet. She sent a couple of kicks and punches, leaving no part untouched. Ye Guan was being suppressed by Cirou's spell, so he couldn't do anything other than endure the pain.

The beating lasted fifteen minutes.

Cirou clapped his hands and gave Ye Guan a good look.

"Get ready," she said.

Ye Guan glared at Cirou without saying anything.

Cirou raised her brows and said, "What's up with that expression? I did that for you!"

Ye Guan’s face darkened. Damn it. Did she really have to beat me up to knead my muscles? She could have just given me a massage. Damn it! She definitely beat me up on purpose!

Cirou waved her sleeve, and Ye Guan could finally move once more.

Cirou smiled at him. "Go ahead!"

Ye Guan stared deeply at Cirou before walking into the array.

As soon as he stepped into the array, Cirou opened her palm, and an imprint appeared in her hand. She stared at Ye Guan and said, "The power of the True God is extremely powerful, so the assimilation process will be excruciatingly painful. I want you to bear with it no matter what. Do you understand?"

Ye Guan nodded. "Understood."

Cirou nodded and activated the array.

The array started trembling beneath Ye Guan’s feet, and it started emitting a golden sheen.

Cirou pointed at Ye Guan and shouted, "Activate!"

The golden light shot into Ye Guan’s glabella.

Boom!

Ye Guan’s eyes widened, and the veins on his forehead bulged powerfully. It looked as though there were multiple squirming worms on his forehead, which created a horrifying sight.

Ye Guan felt like someone was slowly and methodically slicing every inch of his skin with a sharp knife. It was an unprecedented level of pain for Ye Guan, and he let loose a piercing cry as he started trembling like an aspen tree.

Cirou looked nervous as she stared at Ye Guan. "The power of the True God is violent, but it's very purer—even purer and boundless than the Great Dao Origin. You must withstand it. Overcome the pain, or it will abandon you.

"You have to withstand it, or everything will go to waste."

Ye Guan fell on all fours, and his hands were clenched so strongly that his nails were digging into his palms. He started smashing his head on the array. The power of the True God was relentless in its assault on his fleshly body and soul.

Ye Guan knew that it would be difficult to withstand the power of the True God, but he didn't expect it to be this difficult. His fleshly body was starting to crumble underneath its destructive force, and the excruciating pain showed no signs of abating.

Ye Guan's vision started to darken and swim.

Cirou became extremely nervous. A tremor ran through her as she muttered, "You can do it... just hold out..."

"Aaahhhh!" Ye Guan roared. He clenched his fists, and the Mad Demon Bloodline made a move. A terrifying wave of bloodline power burst out of Ye Guan, but it was instantly suppressed by the power of the True God.

And that was when Ye Guan finally started to panic. His Mad Demon Bloodline was incredibly strong, so he didn't expect it to get suppressed by the power of the True God.

"Your will!" Cirou shouted, "Count on your will to keep you going!"

My will! Ye Guan's face was ugly as endured the excruciating pain. "I..."

It was his first time experiencing this level of pain—even igniting his fleshly body and soul hadn't been this painful.

Cirou was starting to panic. This attempt only had one outcome—either Ye Guan devoured the power of the True God, or the power of the True God would devour him!

Cirou's face was unsightly. She thought that Ye Guan's fleshly body had become strong enough to withstand the power of the True God after it was transformed by the Great Dao Origin, but clearly, her assumption was wrong.

The power of the True God was just too strong.

Ye Guan was on all fours as he trembled uncontrollably. He gnashed his teeth, and blood dripped incessantly from his mouth. His vision was starting to swim once more, and he was starting to get disoriented from the pain.

However, he remained steadfast!

His mind held steadfast to his consciousness, and it was all thanks to his will. His will to devour the power of the True God and become even stronger was standing up to the excruciating pain, preventing him from losing consciousness!

The power of the True God began fighting back. A violent tremor ran through Ye Guan's figure, and his will was starting to fade.

Ye Guan roared once more, and his will burst into power.

However, Ye Guan's vision was starting to darken. He was on the verge of collapse!

Cirou sighed at the sight. She opened her palms and started chanting an ancient incantation. Moments later, a beam of golden light burst out of her and melted into Ye Guan, connecting her to the latter.

One Heart, One Life!

Sharing the same fate, sharing life and death...

Cirou frowned, and her unparalleled beauty started to distort at the extreme pain that struck her. Clearly, she was also finding it difficult to withstand the power of the True God, even though she wasn't the main target.

Cirou clenched her fists and started trembling like an aspen tree.

Her back was drenched in cold sweat, and beads of sweat riddled her forehead. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝓌ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝘷ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Meanwhile, Ye Guan was sprawled out in the array; he was unconscious, but he was subconsciously suppressing the power of the True God. Fortunately, Cirou had chosen to share the burden with him. Otherwise, Ye Guan would have been devoured by the power of the True God.

Just like that, Ye Guan’s aura began to surge.

...

A violent tremor abruptly ran through the silent, starry river. Powerful auras began to appear in this star field. The star field seemed to boil as more and more powerful auras appeared in it, creating a terrifying sight.

A spacetime rift manifested in a certain part of the star field. Moments later, a large group of powerful cultivators walked out of the rift.

Jingchen stood at the helm of the group—they were the supreme elites of the Eternal Civilization!

Jingchen took a deep breath and looked around.

"We're finally here," he said with a smile.

The Milky Way was quite far from the Eternal World. If it hadn't been for Cirou's help and the fact that she had allowed them access to the True Universe's teleportation hubs, it would have taken them a decade to reach the Milky Way.

"Cirou was quite generous indeed," said Jingchen with a smile.

Teleportation arrays were expensive to operate, and the distance between the Eternal World and the Milky Way was so vast that the Eternal Civilization would have had to spend at least a billion spiritual cores to get here.

After all, they had to cross hundreds of thousands of star fields to reach the Milky Way Star Field, and every teleport demanded an immense amount of spiritual cores, especially at such distances. Despite that, the True Universe had allowed them free access to their teleportation arrays.

The True Universe was truly generous!

Even the distrustful Zhan Shi had to agree with Jingchen's statement.

Jingchen looked around, and his gaze soon landed on a distant blue planet. Zhan Shi's gaze also fell on that blue planet. "They said that the lady in the plain skirt is on that blue planet!"

Jingchen nodded. His brows furrowed as he examined the blue planet.

"How come that blue planet is so scarce in spiritual energy?" he asked.

Zhan Shi was also puzzled. The spiritual energy of the blue planet was extremely thin.

"It must be a low-level civilization!" Jingchen exclaimed and chuckled. He then swept his gaze across the other cultivators and said, "Still, we cannot be negligent. We have to go all out once we see her. Don't even bother talking to her. Attack her on sight and at the same time. Don't give her any chance to fight back!"

The group of cultivators nodded and got ready to give it their all.

Soon, the group started heading to the blue planet.
