Chapter 587 Earth Realm
"I didn't expect you to suddenly come back, Old Loli."
Xiao Shijian turned to Chen Meiyi before jumping to hug her while sobbing. "I'm glad to be able to see you again, even though you're no longer the same. Honestly, I've always harbored feelings of guilt towards you, as your death was my fault. If I hadn't hastily used my powers and fallen asleep, then I would have been able to save you, and you would never have become like this, half human and half spirit."
"You don't have to blame yourself, you know?" Chen Meiyi said this as she hugged Xiao Shijian back. "You did that for Long Wang, and I made that decision for Song Tianyi. Even though my decision was ultimately in vain, I never regretted it. Moreover, my current life is much better, and I have a husband who loves me."
Xiao Shijian released Chen Meiyi from her arms and wiped her tears, and she wanted to say something. However, the other spirit women suddenly appeared in front of them, and they hugged her in turn, except for Xiao Hei and Xiao Kong'er, who had met her before.
"Haha." Xiao Diqiu laughed and said to Xiao Shijian. "You never change, and you still enjoy using your little girl form."
"You already know that I use this form to suppress my overflowing power, especially since this universe is getting worse with each passing time, which makes it difficult for me to regenerate my power, and I will fall into a deep slumber again if I don't suppress it continuously."
"You already know that I use this form to suppress my overflowing power, especially since this universe is getting worse with each passing time, which makes it difficult for me to regenerate my power, and I will fall into a deep slumber again if I don't suppress it continuously."
Xiao Diqiu responded by nodding in understanding. "You are too overpowered, and the living creatures in this universe are becoming more and more numerous, so you have to share the qi in the universe with them."
"Does this mean you will stay with us, Big Sis?"
Xiao Shijian turned to Xiao Huoli and nodded at her. "Yeah, he will face more challenging things soon, so I have to be by his side to protect him."
"That's good! We can finally gather together again." Xiao Huoli then asked her again. "What about our other sisters? Have you met them before?"
"Yes." Xiao Shijian then told them about the situation of their other sisters. "Xiao Kong'qi should be able to come back here, but she still seems to want to have fun out there, and she'll probably join us here after she's had her fill of fun."
"I think you should ask her to return soon, Old Loli." Xiao Shijian immediately turned to Feng Bing'er with a mischievous smile, but she ignored her smile and spoke to her again. "Cai Yan has the air element, and Kong'qi is the spirit of air, so she's the only person who can teach her about it."
"Hehe." Instead, Xiao Shijian chuckled at that. "I haven't seen you for a thousand years, but you've become quite different, Bing'er. The old you was too cold, and you never cared about other people, but you cared for that little girl."
"Humph!" Feng Bing'er snorted and turned her head away, especially since Xiao Shijian would not stop teasing her if she refuted her words.
"Eldest sister." Xiao Jianyi called out softly as she tugged at the hem of Xiao Shijian's dress.
Xiao Shijian looked at Xiao Jianyi and gently patted her head. "Hey, you're getting older now, so you can't keep being spoiled like this, you know?"
Xiao Jianyi pouted her lips before hugging Xiao Shijian again. "I missed you."
"I missed you, too." Xiao Shijian hugged her back for a while before looling at the others. "You guys should return to their sides now, and we can talk later, or things will get troublesome if something bad happens to them."
The other spirit women sighed heavily after hearing her words, especially since they still wanted to talk a lot with Xiao Shijian, but they were also aware of it, so they immediately left Tianyi Realm again, except for Chen Meiyi.
Xiao Shijian then looked at Chen Li again after she sensed the Qi fluctuations within his body. "He is ready to break through, and his lightning tribulations will descend soon, but they won't be a problem for him."
"That's true." Chen Meiyi nodded in agreement with her. "Do you think it would be better if he went to the middle realm?"
"Not now." Xiao Shijian replied by shaking her head. "Even though he has regained a small part of Emperor Long's memory, the current him is not ready to go to the middle realm, and he can use his time in the Seven Moon Realm to better adapt to everything. Once he is ready, I will take him away to either the middle realm or upper realm, depending on his readiness."
"Hey, I want you to send me to your private realm." Xiao Shijian turned to Chen Meiyi with a frown. "It will take too long for me to regain my old power if I continue staying in that realm, and the best place for me to do that is in your private realm, so I want to go there."
"Are you sure about that? You'll lose a lot of time with him if you stay there, remember?"
"Yes." Chen Meiyi responded with a determined nod. "I might not be able to meet Li'er for a long time, but I have to do this for our sake, and I will think of some things to surpass my past limits."
Xiao Shijian could naturally understand Chen Meiyi's wishes, so she agreed to her request. "All right, I will send you there and speed up the time, so you can recover your strength faster."
"That's good." Chen Meiyi then looked at Chen Li for a while before speaking again. "Send me now, and you can tell him about this matter later."
"All right." After Chen Meiyi disappeared through the portal she created, Xiao Shijian focused on observing Chen Li again. 'Old friend, I really hope that you can become whole again as soon as possible, but I realize that it won't happen anytime soon, so I can only wait patiently for now.'
The sky in Tianyi Realm suddenly became pitch black, and lightning began to flash up there, which indicated that Chen Li's lightning tribulations had begun. Even so, Xiao Shijian could see that he was very calm, and there was not the slightest worry in his expression.
Soon, Chen Li's golden core came out of his body and floated in front of his chest; a golden dragon also came out of his body before circling above him.
Xiao Shijian raised his eyebrows when Wu Xie'er, Nalan Fei, and Xi Yue arrived at the place. "You guys better not think about doing anything bad to him, or I will kill the three of you like I killed the members of your clan."
After hearing that, the three women froze, prompting Wu Xie'er to question her. "Were you really the one who killed Xie Tiezu and the others?"
Xiao Shijian then flicked her finger, and three transparent balls shot out from her finger before entering their foreheads. "You can see their deaths for yourself."
Upon hearing that, the three women closed their eyes and saw the memories that appeared in their minds, and their bodies trembled strongly when they saw the death of Xi Tiezhu and the others, especially since they grew old so quickly and didn't even realize that they were dead.
Soon after, they opened their eyes and gazed at Xiao Shijian, filled with horror, while Nalan Fei questioned him in a trembling voice. "Who exactly are you, Senior? How could you kill them in such a way?"
"I am his very first friend." Xiao Shijian replied while pointing at Chen Li. "Billions of years ago, I was born in this universe, and he was born some time after me. Since then, we have always been together to explore the empty and dark universe, and he gave me the name Shijian, which means time, as I am the spirit of time."
"The spirit of time?" The three women gasped in shock.
"As you have seen from my memories, all my abilities are related to time, so I can kill them very easily, and I can turn you guys back into babies again if I want."
Instantly, cold sweat dripped from their foreheads, and their expressions also looked horrified, imagining Xiao Shjian turning them into babies again.
"What exactly is my master's identity, Senior?"
"Look at that." They looked at the golden dragon, and Xiao Shijian explained. "That golden dragon was the first beast born in this universe, and I gave him the name Long Wang, the king of the dragons."
They looked in awe at the golden dragon, and they finally realized the source of Chen Li's power. However, several lightning bolts suddenly descended from the sky and struck his body, but his golden core and the golden dragon immediately absorbed them.
Unlike Xi Yue, whose cultivation was still at the Soul Realm, Wu Xie'er and Nalan Fei had already passed that stage, but Chen Li's breakthrough was much different from theirs.
After that, several other lightnings descended from the sky in turn, and they continued to strike Chen Li's body for some time, but he didn't seem to feel anything from their attacks.
{Ding! Your cultivation broke through to the 1st Stage Earth Realm.}
