Chapter 288: He is his other half
Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
Sima You Yue was deeply shocked by Old Man Devil’s words.
Because, if he had the power to order the entire mountain of beasts to ravage the Holy Capital, he’d have to be really powerful!
“When I was at the Holy Capital, I heard the Palace Master tell the rascal that the beasts are rebelling more frequently, and the fights are lasting longer. I think that whatever is behind them is very strong, maybe somewhere in the near future it’ll break free. I’m really curious about whatever it is under the mountain.”
“If the Holy Capital really existed to suppress that creature, that would mean that it was around for a really long time. If it was able to stay alive for that long, how powerful would it be…” Sima You Yue was terrified when she thought about it.
Old Man Devil said, firmly “It might even be more powerful than the things in the upper realm. Its power may even be comparable to the ancient clans.”
“Ten Thousand Beast Mountain, one Ocean Boundary, and the Yilin Mainland is going to erupt into chaos?” Sima You Yue murmured, she grew increasingly worried, if grandfather lived here all his life on this land, sooner or later it would fall into danger.
“Ocean Boundary? Is there anything there?” Old Man Devil was surprised, if there was such a continent that remained unknown, it would be a very incomprehensible matter, and if there were two, it would mean chaos.
Sima You Yue told him about her finding the herbs, who she met on Forgotten Worry island and that she found Scarlet there.
Old Man Devil was listening, and remained quiet for quite awhile. “According to what you said, the thing that’s being suppressed should belong to the Dark clan, I don’t know who’s suppressed under this continent.”
“Master…” Sima You Yue sensed someone approaching, turned and saw Bei Gong Tang walking over.
“You Yue, Devil Grandfather, if we don’t eat now, the dishes will get cold.” said Bei Gong Tang.
She had been waiting for both of them, and when they still weren’t coming down, she went to call them herself.
“Let’s go, let’s eat.” said Old Man Devil, “What have good food have you cooked today?”
“We made a lot, you’re bound to be so full that your belly will bulge.” Sima You Yue put aside her worries and laughed.
Afterall, she was an optimist. She didn’t really care what was going to happen in the future. It would take quite a few years for it to happen, and no on knew what was going to happen in the next few years anyways, and like other worries, might as well use this time to get stronger.
If her level wasn’t going get any higher, might as well bring the entire Sima clan up to the upper realm before going.
Naturally, no words were needed to describe their cooking. It spoke for itself. Old Man Devil praised them as he ate, “Both of your cooking skills are comparable to those established inns! I don’t know what kind of delicious dishes the other spirit clans make!”
“Spirit clans?” It was Sima You Yue’s first time hearing this term, she didn’t
understand what it meant.
“The people in the upper realms don’t just consist of human clans, many spirit beings
also formed their own clans, because power is also as important as human clans.
“Ah?!” Sima You Yue was dumbfounded, “Wasn’t it dominated by humans?”
“You can put it like that, because the all spirit clans don’t have alot of beings in their clans, human clans are definitely dominating the upper realm. But you can also say that, aside from human clans and spirit clans, there are many other kinds of clans and when they add up, there’s a massive number of creatures up there.”
Sima You Yue had never expected the upper realm to be like this, with human clans and spirit beings clans living together in harmony, it broke the bias she had from her past life.
“What are these spirit clans like?” she asked out of curiosity.
“They aren’t too different from humans, they constantly mock us, they call us weak and small but many of them still take on the form of a human.” said Bei Gong Tang.
“But many of them still remain in their beastly form, you’ll know what it looks like once you go up.” said Old Man Devil.
Sima You Yue nodded her head, if any more were to be said, she wouldn’t be interested anymore, it would affect her thoughts.
“Oh right, Master, who did you make your Three Yuan Pills for!”
“Your Senior Brother.” said Old Man Devil. After gnawing on the last piece of meat, he wiped
his hands. “Alright, I’m full. I’ll digest my food and then we can practice.”
Immediately after he said that, he zoomed away and his shadow was nowhere to be
seen.
Sima You Yue seemed oblivious to Old Man Devil leaving, as she sat still on her seat in a daze.
Bei Gong Tang saw Sima You Yue in a daze and asked “You Yue, what happened?”
“Nothing, you can clean up, I’ll leave first.” Sima You Yue stood up and walked straight to the peak.
“What happened to her?” Bei Gong Tang said, puzzled as she watched Sima You Yue walk away. She’d never seen her like this!
At the peak of the mountain, Sima You Yue looked for a rock to sit on. She took a look at her Devil Snare bracelet and her thoughts started to drift.
After awhile, she finally said aloud. ” Senior Brother is your soul, right?”
“Yes.” Mo Sha finally replied after a long silence.
“As expected.”Sima You Yue said,” The Three Yuan pill is meant for people whose spirits aren’t complete, Master said this was for Senior Brother, and said your spirit wasn’t complete. You also said before that Master carried the spirit energy from your past life, so Senior Brother is your other half then.”
“I see that you are meticulous.” said Mo Sha.
Sima You Yue remembered a few years ago when she had gotten Mo Sha and met Wu Lingyu, and she guessed that Wu Lingyu had followed his spirit and arrived at the Pu Luo Mountain Range.
It was a pity because she had never guessed that she’d have kept Mo Sha in the
Spirit pearl, causing both of them to lose so many years they could have spent together as a whole.
“Then… what do you intend to do from now?” Sima You Yue asked with hesitation.
He was silent for a while, maybe he too, never thought it’d be that easy to find his past spirit.
Only after awhile, he replied her question.
“Fusion. It is necessary. If not, he won’t be able to live any longer.”
“Why?”
“Because as his power grows, his spirit won’t be able to support his physical body, and he’ll become very weak. Then at the last moment, it will be scattered.” said Mo Sha.
“Scattered? !” Sima You Yue was astonished. “It has been a thousand years since your death, clearly you have been through a few cycles, why on earth would he be scattered?”
“Nothing lasts forever.” said Mo Sha, ” Also, that is only a bit of my spiritual essence. After a single cycle, the spiritual energy will be cut by a whole lot. Once I die again, and I don’t have enough power to gather my essence, I will naturally disappear forever.”
“Then what if your entire soul goes?” asked Sima You Yue.
“If, after I gather my soul, I can recall my past memories, my full soul would be able to gather and cultivate my soul from scratch. It will be a fresh start.”
“Then what about the people that go through many cycles, aren’t they really skilled?” Sima You Yue asked, amazed. If there were many like him, this earth would have broke out into madness!
“Nah, even if spirits could remember their past memories, they’d still have to train from scratch. But they would be a little stronger as compared to ordinary people.” said Mo Sha, “Also, people who can train themselves to a certain level, are only a few. There are few in the entire history that have done that.”
Sima You Yue was speechless, was he praising himself?
