Eternal Sacred King

2100 Reminiscence

“I haven’t seen you for more than 2,000 years but you’ve grown so quickly. Impressive,”

Recognizing Su Zimo’s identity, Gu Tongyou let down his guard as well and could not help but praise.

Qiu Siluo smiled. “Although we saved you before, you saved us earlier on as well. Don’t call us your benefactors, that will make us seem distant.”

“That’s right,”

Gu Tongyou nodded slightly and asked again, “How should I address you, Fellow Daoist?”

“I’m Su Zimo,”

Su Zimo did not hide his identity against Gu Tongyou and Su Zimo.

Gu Tongyou’s expression changed. As though he recalled something, he asked, “All these years, a prince of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom has been hunting down somebody…”

“That’s me,”

Su Zimo nodded.

Gu Tongyou said, “Brother Su, your disguise technique is truly impressive and flawless. It’s no wonder why you could hide for more than 2,000 years against the pursuit of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom.”

“However, because you saved us and exposed your identity, I’m afraid you can’t stay in Astral Sect anymore,”

Qiu Siluo looked guilty.

Su Zimo shook his head. “Even without this matter, I was prepared to leave.”

Previously, he was in a hurry to raise his cultivation realm in seclusion.

After coming out of seclusion this time round, he did not intend to continue staying in the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom. He had to find an opportunity to leave this place!

In the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom, he had offended a prince and could be hunted down at any moment.

The only way to resolve the current situation was to leave the territory ruled by the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom.

If he wanted to break out of the situation, the best way was to look for protection, a faction that could go against the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom!

“There’s only hope after leaving the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom,”

Gu Tongyou said in a deep voice as well.

The situation they were facing was not much different from Su Zimo.

Furthermore, the person they offended was even stronger and had a higher status than Prince Yuan Zuo!

“What are your plans from now on?”

Su Zimo asked.

Gu Tongyou and Qiu Siluo exchanged glances and the melancholy in their eyes deepened as they sighed gently. “The two of us have offended Zither Immortal Meng Yao. We probably can’t even stay in the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain anymore.”

“Is Meng Yao that terrifying?”

Su Zimo asked with a frown.

Qiu Siluo explained, “If Meng Yao was only a princess of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom, she wouldn’t have such an impact. However, she’s also a legacy disciple of Flying Immortal Sect.”

“There aren’t many legacy disciples in each of the four immortal sects. One can only be conferred the title of a legacy disciple after their cultivation reaches the Perfected One realm and they become Perfected Immortals.”

“The legacy disciples of the four immortal sects have noble statuses even in the Nine Firmament Immortal Domain, let alone the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain.”

“Furthermore, Meng Yao is one of the four great fairies. In the entire Divine Firmament Immortal Domain and even the experts of the Nine Firmament Immortal Domain, it’s their honor to be able to listen to the sound of Meng Yao’s zither. In the Nine Firmament Immortal Domain, the Zither Immortal’s music is even described to be a heavenly sound that’s priceless.”

“None of the top factions in the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain will offend Zither Immortal Meng Yao for the two of us.”

Su Zimo was silent.

In that case, the situation Gu Tongyou and Qiu Siluo were facing was even worse than his!

“We might head to other Immortal Domains…”

At that point, Gu Tongyou paused for a moment before saying, “If we truly have no way out, we can only head to the Fiend Domain.”

“Fiend Domain,”

Su Zimo could not help but think of the Thunder Emperor who had already headed to the Fiend Domain. He did not know how the Thunder Emperor was and if his injuries had healed.

“Brother Su, I heard you mention that your Dao Heart was damaged because someone very important to you has left,”

Suddenly, Gu Tongyou asked.

“That’s right,”

Su Zimo sighed sadly. He recalled Ji Yaoxue’s voice and expression and was in a daze.

Although many things happened today, it had only been less than a day since Ji Yaoxue passed away.

Su Zimo could not break free from that dejected mood.

His chest felt stuffy and he felt terrible, but he had nowhere to vent it.

The more he was like this, the more difficult it was for his Dao Heart to heal.

If he could not get out of this predicament, there was a high chance that he would form a vicious cycle and sink into it.

Gu Tongyou and Qiu Siluo exchanged glances and nodded slightly.

Qiu Siluo placed the Soul Reaping Zither on her knees and plucked the strings gently with her jade-like fingers, letting out a sound like flowing water. It was like water droplets dripping or meteors streaking through the night sky, vast and quirky.

Instantly, Su Zimo seemed to have passed through a water barrier and ripples appeared, as though he had returned to the past.

Gu Tongyou picked up the Fallen Soul Flute and placed it by his lips.

A mellow sound of sobbing could be heard.

Su Zimo caught sight of Ji Yaoxue again.

That unforgettable woman.

From their first encounter to the capital of Great Zhou, everything seemed to be the same.

However, in this memory, Su Zimo and Ji Yaoxue became Dao companions and accompanied one another, leaving behind countless happy times.

Su Zimo did not ascend and merely accompanied Ji Yaoxue to grow old.

Eventually, the two of them fell asleep in each other’s embrace and were buried together.

The sound of the zither and flute gradually faded until it was silent.

By the time Su Zimo woke up, his face was already covered in tears.

Upon receiving the news of Ji Yaoxue’s departure, he had nowhere to vent and kept it in his heart.

Both Gu Tongyou and Qiu Siluo could tell that Su Zimo was in an extremely bad mental state!

There was a high chance that he would suffer Qi Deviation if he cultivated in the future, let alone recover his Dao Heart.

The two of them were proficient in the Dao of music and played the zither and flute together, bringing Su Zimo into a memory.

Su Zimo’s emotions rose and fell along with the sound of the zither and flute, venting out in this memory and obtaining freedom.

By the time Su Zimo woke up, the injuries on his Dao Heart had already healed.

The Heaven and Earth Essence Qi in his body surged continuously and washed through his body like a tsunami!

The inheritance obtained by Astral Sect was only of use at this moment.

When Su Zimo received the inheritance, the Green Lotus True Body endured the starlight of two star regions.

The starlight came from the vast stars.

Every single starlight contained rich and pure Heaven and Earth Essence Qi.

Su Zimo’s acceptance of the inheritance also meant that he was absorbing the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi into his body.

However, his Dao Heart was damaged and prevented him from breaking through, causing the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi to accumulate in his body.

Now that his Dao Heart had recovered, the accumulated Heaven and Earth Essence Qi surged rapidly as well!

Su Zimo’s cultivation realm broke through once more!

Grade 6 Earth Immortal!

After breaking through to the Level 6 Earth Essence realm, the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi in his body was still extremely vast. If he refined all the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, he could even reach the peak of a Grade 6 Earth Immortal!

However, this was not a suitable place for cultivation.

Su Zimo suppressed the Essence Qi in his body for the time being and wiped away the tears on his face. He bowed deeply to Gu Tongyou and Qiu Siluo.

There were no words that could express his gratitude—he had already engraved this favor in his heart!

Qiu Siluo smiled gently.

Su Zimo lamented, “I’ve never heard the sound of the Zither Immortal before. However, I think that she can only be worthy of the title of the Zither Immortal if her zither sound can be compared to yours.”

“How can I compare to the Zither Immortal?”

Qiu Siluo smiled.

“What was the name of that song earlier on?”

Su Zimo asked again.

“Reminiscence,”

Qiu Siluo said.

“Reminiscence, reminiscence…”

Su Zimo murmured softly.
