Chapter 1100 – Hanging Life
Looking at those magnificent halls in the distance, An Qingyu’s heart jumped slightly.
Which Great Summer Gods lived in those great halls? Was Cao Yuan also there?
The four of them transformed into four streams of light and flew through the vast Heavenly Court, heading straight towards those great halls at the top of the clouds.
The sound of whistling wind brushed past An Qingyu’s ears as he looked down at the other Heavenly Court Immortal Palaces below him, only to see that within the vast Heavenly Court, there weren’t many Great Xia deities moving around outside, and even if there were a handful of them coming and going on clouds, they were all carrying injuries on their bodies, and almost all of them flew towards a grand Immortal Palace at the top of the clouds in the distance.
”What’s going on here?” An Qingyu asked in disbelief.
Nezha looked down and said.
”The Heavenly Court fought head-on with the Sun City, although it completely destroyed the Sun City, but our Great Xia Gods were also greatly wounded, most of the Gods are now in seclusion within their own caves to heal their wounds, and some of those who were overly injured have gone to the Toutiao Palace to seek medicine.”
An Qingyu nodded thoughtfully.
Ne Zha led them to a large hall on the left side of the cloud top, An Qingyu looked up and saw the three big words “Yuanji Hall” hanging high above the hall.
”You guys go in.” Nezha stood outside the hall and spoke.
An Qingyu let out a hmm, and stepped into it with the crowd.
Within the empty hall, only the sound of footsteps echoed liltingly, strands of fireflies danced on the roof of the hall, illuminating the entire hall, An Qingyu advanced while observing the surroundings, apart from a giant vermillion pillar supporting the roof of the hall, there was nothing else extra.
”Inside here, why is there no one?” Jiang Er floated in the air and looked around, somewhat puzzled.
”I don’t know …… This hall seems to be very deep, walk further in.” An Qingyu’s expression remained unchanged.
”Where did Chubby go?”
Shen Qingzhu, who had been adorned at the end, suddenly opened his mouth.
An Qingyu and Jiang’er froze at the same time, the two of them turned their heads to look, at some point, Baili Chubby’s figure had already disappeared without a trace.
”When we entered the hall, it seems like it was still following behind us……. How did it suddenly disappear?” Jiang’er recalled for a moment, his brows slightly furrowed.
Right at this moment, a voice rang out from the front of the hall:
”Young friends, you have finally arrived.”
The trio’s attention was attracted and they turned their heads to look ahead, only to see an old man clad in a white robe with an immortal aura, pacing with a duster in his hand.
Seeing this old man, the three of them, An Qingyu, glanced at each other and saluted:
”May I ask who you are ……”
”Old man Taibai Jinxing.” The old man smiled and arched his hand.
Taibai Jinxing?
A flash of doubt flashed through An Qingyu’s heart.
Taibai Jinxing, as one of the five Star Sovereigns of the Heavenly Court, his name, they had naturally heard of, but this one had never crossed paths with them before, so why did he bring them here?
”So it’s the Star Sovereign.” An Qingyu politely opened her mouth, “I wonder what the Star Sovereign wanted us to come here for?”
”Hehe, three little friends, please follow me.”
Taibai Jinxing smiled mysteriously, flicked his duster, and led the three of them right into the depths of the great hall.
The three of them, An Qingyu, quickly followed.
Along with the crowd deeper, a touch of blue aura from the hall deep air ripples out, that is a ball of light blue shimmering water, about a hundred meters wide, quietly suspended in the temple roof directly below, like an azure star, slowly rotating.
The closer the blue water ball, the more dense the aura in the air, and when walking near it, there was even a light mist of aura floating around.
An Qingyu stopped her footsteps underneath the water ball and looked up curiously through the aura mist.
The moment he saw the water ball clearly, his pupils suddenly contracted!
Only to see that in the center of that light blue water sphere, a figure with tightly closed eyes was floating silently, black hair fluttering between the water, pale skin without the slightest hint of blood, no heartbeat, no breathing, as if it was a corpse.
That was Lin Qiye.
Not only An Qingyu, but Shen Qingzhu and Jiang’er beside her also discovered Lin Qiye in the water sphere, and their faces suddenly changed.
”Seven Nights?!” Shen Qingzhu spoke in dismay.
When he was on the Pamir Plateau, Shen Qingzhu had stood on top of a mountain peak and witnessed Lin Qiye’s battle and death along with the other recruits, and he knew that Lin Qiye’s body was eventually taken back by the Heavenly Court, but he hadn’t expected that he would be able to see him here.
”Starlord, how is he …… doing?” An Qingyu looked as if she had sensed something, and a hopeful light flickered in her eyes as she looked at the Great White Gold Star.
”You all don’t need to worry, although Little Friend Lin has lost his heartbeat and breathing, he hasn’t completely died yet, there is still a trace of life remaining within his body.” Taibai Jinxing spoke nonchalantly.
”This is thanks to that white-haired mortal who can manipulate time, he used his full power to solidify the time within Lin Xiaoyou’s body when he was on the verge of death, and after the return of the Heavenly Court, Yang Erlang rushed all the way into the Jade Void Palace with his body in his arms, kowtowing to ask Heavenly Father First to save him.
Later, the First Heavenly Father himself made the decision to take out this mass of Pure Elemental Life Spring from the supreme treasure left behind by the Spirit Treasure Heavenly Father back then, hanging on to Little Friend Lin’s life.”
Hearing this, the eyes of the Anqingyu trio quickly brightened!
Lin Qiye was still alive!
Lin Qiye, from the beginning to the end, was the backbone of this team, and his death had caused a layer of gloom to hang over the entire team, and now that they learned that Lin Qiye was still alive, a few people were naturally ecstatic in their hearts, and the pessimism that had been suppressed was gone.
”Then when will he wake up?” Shen Qingzhu couldn’t help but ask.
Taibai Jinxing shook his head, “The Pure Elemental Life Spring can only hang on to his life and retain the last breath of ‘qi’ in his body, it can’t cure him, his potential, soul, and life have been completely overdrawn, generally speaking, there is no possibility of recovery, the best state is just to stay in the Life Spring to hang on to his life. The best state was to continue to stay in the Life Spring and hang on for dear life.
As soon as he leaves this Life Spring, his last strand of vitality dissipates, and he will truly be powerless to recover.”
The trio’s faces turned ugly again.
”Not even Heaven’s Father has a solution?”
”There are limits to manpower, there are specialties in the arts, and the three Heavenly Elders aren’t omnipotent ……,” Taibai Jinxing spoke helplessly.
An Qingyu pondered for a moment before speaking again, “Star Monarch, this time we were invited here, other than informing us of Lin Qiye’s condition, is there nothing else?”
Logically speaking, Lin Qiye’s life being saved by the Celestial Court was indeed a big deal, but to these Great Xia Gods, it seemed unnecessary to purposely bring them mortals up to the Celestial Court to personally make it clear in person, and at most, it would be through Zuo Qing to briefly pass on to them the news that Lin Qiye wasn’t dead.
After all, even Zuo Qing, the commander in chief of the Night Watch, has not personally ascended to the Heavenly Court over …… the Great Summer Gods, why on earth would they invite them to the realm?
