Chapter 1478 -67 Returning to the Clan_2
“No, the tribulation was successfully transcended; there was just a minor issue.”
Wang Ba immediately shook his head and said.
Hearing Wang Ba’s words, Qin Lingxiao subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
She looked at Wang Ba and saw his urgency.
After a brief silence, she nonetheless suddenly spoke up, her words unexpected to Wang Ba:
“Senior Brother, if your partner hadn’t been there at the time, would you still have rejected me?”
Wang Ba was taken aback in an instant.
He never anticipated that Qin Lingxiao would be so bold and direct today.
Originally, he was somewhat anxious, but at this moment, his thoughts drifted to what Daoist Yuanci had once said.
After a moment of silence, he finally made a decision and said firmly:
“Even without her, I still wouldn’t.”
Upon hearing this answer, Qin Lingxiao’s body trembled slightly.
Yet, she still managed to force a slight smile, as if unconcerned, and asked casually and candidly:
“Why?”
“Am I not beautiful enough?”
“Or do you not like my personality?”
Wang Ba noticed the change in Qin Lingxiao and felt a tinge of pity, but he still persistently shook his head and said:
“That time is long gone. I met my partner in insignificance, when tomorrow was uncertain. I should have focused solely on cultivation and pursuing the Dao, but how could a person not have feelings? If there are emotions, there are inevitably happiness, anger, sorrow, fear, and the need for mutual comfort.”
“This is all natural.”
“Because of this, I got to know and understand Bu Chan, but if it were now, with my temperament, I would probably still be alone.”
“Therefore, I say, even if Bu Chan hadn’t existed, given the timing of our acquaintance, it already would have been impossible.”
Watching Qin Lingxiao listening quietly, he hesitated for a moment, then for the first time, expressed his own feelings.
His gaze drifted into the distance, his voice low: “I know I may be walking a path no one else takes. I have a partner, offspring, friends, and disciples by my side, and these have already satisfied all my needs from the outside world.”
“Junior Sister Qin, there are countless Dao awaiting us to uncover their mysteries. Why cling…”
However, it seemed Qin Lingxiao understood what Wang Ba wanted to say, and she suddenly interrupted him in the silence:
“My Dao Secret has reached perfection… I will soon start to cross the Immortal Ascension Tribulation.”
Wang Ba was startled, his words about to be spoken ultimately turning into words of comfort:
“Junior Sister Qin will surely achieve Immortal Ascension.”
Qin Lingxiao smiled:
“With the Immortal Ascension Tribulation, even the most formidable people can’t guarantee they will transcend it; life and death are unpredictable, who can say for certain that they will make it?”
Listening to Qin Lingxiao’s words, Wang Ba’s mind involuntarily returned to Qi Yan’s Immortal Ascension Tribulation.
Had he not intervened, Qi Yan would probably have turned to ash by now, descending into the cycle of rebirth.
This made him even more conscious of life’s uncertainties.
After hesitating a bit, he could only say:
“If you need assistance, just call for me, and I will definitely come to support you. That was also the instruction from my wife.”
“I… I have to go now, as there are still elder matters to attend to.”
Qin Lingxiao smiled again:
“Go on with your tasks.”
As soon as the words fell, Wang Ba disappeared from in front of her.
Looking at the wilderness that had become empty.
Qin Lingxiao slowly withdrew her smile, lowering her gaze.
“Is it just because of master’s instructions?”
“Just because of timing, there will never be such an opportunity again?”
“If only you could spare a little for me, how wonderful that would be.”
She murmured to herself.
But ultimately no one responded.
…
“Strange, it’s really very strange.”
Wanxiang Sect.
Within a dungeon.
The size of the dungeon was not large, but it was rich with Spiritual Energy.
The abundant Spiritual Energy nearly condensed into liquid, pervading the entire dungeon.
Besides these streams of Spiritual Energy, there were several figures standing tall.
Qi Yan lay on a stone platform, with the Ink Dragon coiled at half a zhang long around Qi Yan’s body.
Standing beside were the bald female Cultivator Jiang Yi, half-black half-white Pang Xiu, great elder Ji Ying, second elder Xumi, and others.
Wang Ba was also standing nearby.
At this moment, Jiang Yi stood beside Qi Yan, clucking her tongue in wonder:
“In all my years of cultivation, I’ve never come across such a scenario.”
“Based on my previous understanding of him, this time his Immortal Ascension Tribulation, he had a ninety percent chance of failing.”
“However, it seems as if the power of Heaven and Earth intervened, forcibly pushing him from the inside out to advance, creating a contradiction. Even though he made it through the Immortal Ascension Tribulation, he’s like a premature infant with inherent deficiencies—whether it is the refinement of Spiritual Energy or otherwise, far from the standard of a normal Divinity Transformation cultivator. But it’s not too troubling; as long as he survives this period and his Primordial Spirit’s absorption of Spiritual Energy returns to normal, there won’t be any problems.”
Wang Ba slightly furrowed his brows, inquiring:

“May I ask, elder, how long will it take?”
Jiang Yi shook her head and said, “That I do not know. In normal circumstances, perhaps ten years or a hundred years would suffice for a recovery. But it may also be a thousand or even ten thousand years with no recovery.”
“Normal circumstances? What about the abnormal ones?”
Wang Ba asked sharply.
Jiang Yi smiled:
“In abnormal circumstances, of course, it involves external intervention. Further nurturing his Destined Spirit Beast might speed up his recovery. In any case, making it through the Immortal Ascension Tribulation is a good thing. It’s mostly just a matter of time.”
Hearing Jiang Yi’s words, Wang Ba finally relaxed.
No matter what, as long as Qi Yan is alright, that’s what counts.
Indefinite recovery time is still better than turning to ash as earlier thought.
Moreover, this also gave Wang Ba a loophole, albeit not an actual loophole, exclusively for Beast Control cultivators to indulge in Divinity Transformation.
