Chapter 571: Chapter 470: The Only Way to Rescue

The only way to save them is to eat the Flat Peach.

The last rule in the Peach Garden regulations is to never eat the Flat Peach.

So do you eat it, or not?

Jiang Lingling never thought that, after being isolated for endless years on the Moon, she would face such a choice one day.

On one hand, there are the companions she just recently met,

On the other hand, there’s an action that might cost her life,

"Ugh!" Jiang Lingling nodded firmly to the Spiritual Power, then dashed unabashedly towards a Flat Peach Tree.

She made her choice.

The Spiritual Power watched this scene, a human-like trace of color appearing on its face.

It seems a bold stroke has been painted on this "White Paper."

"Every era will produce a leader."

"Beside that leader, there will be like-minded companions."

The Spiritual Power murmured to itself, looking at Han Zhan and his Contracted Spirit companions, "Truly... nostalgic..."

Jiang Lingling did not hear these words from the Spiritual Power.

These words had nothing to do with what she needed to do.

She charged towards the Flat Peach Tree at maximum speed.

Behind her, the Spiritual Power’s voice rang out again, clearer this time, enough for Jiang Lingling to hear: "If I were you, I wouldn’t choose a Flat Peach of nine thousand or six thousand years."

Jiang Lingling’s steps faltered slightly.

Quickly, she wisely chose a Flat Peach Tree bearing fruit of three thousand years.

Upon picking a three-thousand-year-old Flat Peach from the tree, she unsurprisingly did not hear the Queen Mother of the West’s cold scoff.

Jiang Lingling glanced at the companions controlled beside the Spiritual Power, hesitated no longer, and took a bite of the three-thousand-year-old Flat Peach.

The first taste was awful.

Particularly, extremely, incomparably awful.

Jiang Lingling had never tasted anything so awful, so much so that her beautiful facial features twisted.

The intensely bitter taste made her stomach churn, and in pain, Jiang Lingling kneeled, unable to stomach the Flat Peach she had just eaten and vomited it out.

The vomited peach hit the ground, and the entire ground suddenly dissolved!

Jiang Lingling maintained her stance, hands pressing the ground,

Suddenly, the "ground" she was pressing against also disappeared!

Immediately, the ground around Jiang Lingling melted away from underneath her, rapidly expanding.

Unable to react in time, she fell through the ground into a void of white light.

Jiang Lingling opened her eyes again, suddenly awakened.

Her hands still pressed against the ground,

Feeling the real sensation through her skin, she calmed down a bit.

At this time, the Spiritual Power’s voice sounded once more: "Welcome to the real Kunlun Twin Fruit World."

Jiang Lingling lifted her head in confusion, she saw:

Endless desolation.

In what was once the range of the Peach Garden, only withered Flat Peach Trees stood, dead for unknown years.

They were charred black, twisted into strange shapes, like people burnt alive.

Further away, a humanoid figure stood, golden hair emitting a unique faint glow.

As Jiang Lingling approached for a clearer look, she realized the face was indistinct, just a pale white outline.

"Where is this..." Jiang Lingling opened her mouth, suddenly surprised, covering her mouth gently in astonishment.

"Why can I speak..."

"It’s your ’heart’ speaking." The golden-haired, indistinct-faced Spiritual Power explained again. "As you can see, this is Kunlun."

"Of course, it’s a weakened version." The Spiritual Power added.

"Because you ate a three-thousand-year-old Flat Peach, if it were six or nine thousand, you would see a more realistic Kunlun Immortal Court, and you would clearly see my face, but you might not bear it."

Is that why it was only advised to eat a three-thousand-year-old peach?

So by eating the peach, you can "see" the real Kunlun Immortal Court; was the one we saw before fake?

Jiang Lingling couldn’t help thinking about falling into the white light, the world reversing, witnessing the truth.

"What happened here?" Jiang Lingling couldn’t help but ask.

The Spiritual Power glanced at her.

Though its face couldn’t be seen, Jiang Lingling felt its gaze on her.

"You only have one chance."

"What?" Jiang Lingling was taken aback.

"You only have one chance." The Spiritual Power repeated, "To let me tell you the truth of what happened here, or to save your companions, you have one chance."

Speaking, it pointed to the other side.

There, Han Zhan and the other Contracted Spirit girls floated in mid-air.

A faint black aura surrounded them, each with eyes closed, in a dormant state.

Especially Han Zhan, besides the faint black aura around his body, he was enveloped in thicker black mist.

Seeing this, Jiang Lingling understood.

This must be their personalities "reversed" by the Kunlun Twin Fruit World, sealed within this "world"!

Releasing the seal would release their personalities, returning everyone to normal.

Once back to normal, the Spiritual Power’s Heart Attack Technique would naturally be broken, this should mean saving her companions.

"Can’t I choose both?" Jiang Lingling asked unwillingly.

The Spiritual Power shook its head, "You can’t,"

"Then I choose to save my companions." Jiang Lingling decided.

After speaking, she suddenly thought of something and quickly added, "Except Ah Zhan!"

Han Zhan’s "normal state" is different from the others, if restrictions are lifted now, it could lead to trouble.

The Spiritual Power said nothing more.

Silently raising its right hand, white threads wove between its fingers, turning into light that fell onto the other Contracted Spirit girls, excluding Han Zhan.

The white light fused with the black aura surrounding them.

The fusion of black and white disappeared, along with the Contracted Spirit girls’ figures.

"They..." Jiang Lingling saw this, instinctively stepping forward.

"You should also return now." The Spiritual Power interrupted before Jiang Lingling could finish.

Immediately, Jiang Lingling’s figure also vanished.

After doing this, the Spiritual Power silently raised its left hand, the missing black threads reappearing.

With a strong slap, it embedded the black threads into its body.

The next moment, the black in its eyes brightened, breaking the balance and completely overwhelming the white!

It abruptly looked up at the unseen Kunlun Immortal Court, with an unfaltering tone.

"Then just go crazy once more!"
