Chapter 42 Looking Back Five Hundred Years Later

Looking at the large amount of spiritual energy and the small seal left behind by Madam Bai Gu after her death, Xia Shu felt filled with emotion.

These are all the feelings that Lady White Bone has for the Great Sage.

Otherwise, the ones who would be left with Ling Yun would be him and Bai Jing.

“Junior brother, what was that talent entry you just mentioned? It’s so cool!”

Bai Jing walked forward curiously.

Xia Shu smiled and said, “Just now, I suddenly realized a talent item called Blazing Flash, but it is an N-level item with too many restrictions.”

Flame Flash can ignore all attacks, charge forward and cause attacks, but this requires too many prerequisites to support it, and has many shortcomings, and is not perfect. According to Xia Shu’s understanding, it can only be rated as N level.

Fortunately, the killing power is extremely good, and it can directly shatter the bone armor on Mrs. White Bone’s body, which is enough for Xia Shu to use for a long time.

“Wow, you created your own magical power? Junior brother, you really are a monster!”

“But Junior Brother, you should quickly refine these spiritual essences. Once you absorb these spiritual essences, when Madam White Bone comes back to life, she will be no match for us!”

Bai Jing urged.

Xia Shu nodded, took out the gourd and absorbed 90% of the spiritual essence, completing the absorption in an instant. Bai Jing remained silent, obviously already accustomed to his junior brother’s extraordinary abilities.

She was not in a hurry to absorb it.

She absorbed nearly 40% of the spiritual essence the first time, and her meridians still feel very swollen until now. If she absorbs more, she will be unable to move.

Thinking of this, Bai Jing quickly sat cross-legged on the ground and absorbed the spiritual energy in his body.

Madam Bai Gu was a level 40 demon king, and the spiritual energy she left behind was considerable, which directly pushed Xia Shu to level 30.

Xia Shu struggled for a long time, and finally decided to give the spiritual point to Guangzhi.

【Guangzhi: Thank you, godfather! 】

Then, Xia Shu stretched out his hand and grabbed the small seal in his hand, looking at it carefully.

This is a small bone seal. At first glance, it looks like white jade. When you hold it in your hand, you can even feel the faint temperature emanating from it.

Inscribed on it are four tiny characters “Madam White Bone”, which are beautiful and elegant, and should have been written by a woman.

[Obtained item: Common People Ornament]

[Common People Ornament (SSR): After the Great Sage died, his bones shed tears and his blood and sweat condensed into a small seal, recording his eternal life.]

[Wearing this item will give you a chance to be resurrected once after death. After a successful resurrection, the accessory will automatically disappear.]

I’ll test it!

This is a divine object!
Once dead, dead is dead, but this thing can revive you once. It is a magical thing that can change your destiny.

It’s a pity that resurrection is not predetermined but probabilistic, which lowers the level of this treasure. Otherwise, UR is not enough to show how incredible this treasure is. Even so, it is still the best one below UR.

After a moment of joy, Xia Shu sighed again.

This is Lady White Bone’s friendship, and it’s for the Great Sage.

It’s a pity that I am just Xia Shu after all, not the Great Sage.

“Wow, wow, wow, I knew you were the one destined to be mine!”

Upon seeing this, Bai Jing jumped up and screamed, not caring about practicing anymore.

“The first time, we got three treasures, and the second time we got this kind of divine object. This is a second life.”

“I wonder what good things this third kill will bring?!”

Bai Jing’s eyes are sparkling.

But Xia Shu shook his head and said, “Senior Sister, I don’t want to fight for the last time. Let’s go back, shall we?”

Bai Jing was stunned, looked at Xia Shu with a serious expression, and asked in confusion: “Why? Junior brother, didn’t you say that you still wanted to fight the White Bone Demon for the third time to get the final reward? We are in good shape now, why don’t you want to fight anymore?”

Bai Jing was a little confused.

“She is also a miserable person…”

If it was the White Bone Lady in the Mirror Secret Realm, I would have killed her, but the place I was in must be the real secret world. After killing the White Bone Lady, she would really die, her soul would be scattered, and she would never be reborn. To some extent, I could be considered to have inherited the mantle of the Great Sage.

How could someone do such a thing?

Let’s look at Mrs. White Bone’s attitude towards them.

It is both for letting the sea go and for teaching.

It was obvious that she didn’t want to live anymore, and wanted to use her own life to push him to a higher position.

After this encounter with Xia Shu, Bai Jing knew that their junior brother must be hiding a huge secret. They thought that he knew the true meaning of Madam Bai Gu’s unclear words. Seeing her serious expression, they nodded as well.

And she also felt that Madam White Bone had several opportunities to fight back, or even severely injure them, but she kept talking and kept giving them the lead.

No, it’s not a release.

It’s just like letting the sea go.

She even taught him two secret techniques intentionally or unintentionally, and pointed out the mistakes in his practice in a very direct way, which was a favor to him.

“Okay, Junior Brother, I’ll listen to you then.”

Bai Jing nodded, took out the small gourd from her waist and absorbed the spiritual energy into her body. She looked a little unmovable.

To put it in simple terms.

This is what it means to hold on.

Looking at the bone spurs gradually protruding from the ground, Xia Shu knew that Mrs. Bones was about to be resurrected again, so he picked up Bai Jing and carried her on his shoulders, running towards the land temple following the light. At the last moment, he lit the incense and turned into a ray of light and disappeared.

“Junior brother, junior brother, put me down.”

“I’m going to throw up!”

Between heaven and earth, only Bai Jing’s shouting and screaming remained.

The next moment, a huge figure appeared at the spot.

The foot-long bone wings behind Mrs. White Bone flapped, and the bone armor on her body looked like jade.

He looked at the empty ground, as if in a daze, and then laughed out loud.

“Just like that stinky monkey, he always only does things halfway, can’t make up his mind, and acts on emotion.”

The bone wings behind her gradually disappeared and turned into a white dress. She walked to the dressing table and looked at the woman in the bronze mirror with her heart fluttering.

Back then, the Great Sage broke off his friendship with the White Bone Demon and fought her three times, but he only destroyed her physical body and spared her soul. He also informed the underworld, so that he could have a place to stay in the underworld.

Although the Great Sage did not say it, Madam White Bone knew it, otherwise she would not have risked her own life to help Xia Shu.

“Gods and Buddhas everywhere…”

Mrs. White Bone’s body trembled slightly, and the hatred in her eyes almost turned into substance, threatening to devour his sanity.

The reason why the Great Sage took action back then was because those people wanted him to embark on the path of cutting off emotions and locking up desires, and forced him to take action and kill Madam White Bone.

If the Great Sage had taken action himself, Madam White Bone would still have a way out like she does now, at least she would still be alive.

But if the Great Sage does not take action, someone else will naturally take action, and then Mrs. White Bone will end in a very miserable way.

That’s why the Monkey King performed this scene.

After the journey to the West was completed, the Great Sage transcended the mundane world and condensed into the golden body of Buddha, named Fighting Buddha.

Soon after, he was caught in the vortex between Lingshan and Heaven. In order to avoid being caught, he never contacted Madam Bai Gu.

Who would have thought that the three fights with the White Bone Demon would end in a farewell forever.

Mrs. Bai Gu’s emotions gradually stabilized, and she picked up the bone fan beside her and waved it gently.

“Stinky monkey, I met your successor today.”

“You two look very similar. At first glance, I even thought it was you who came back to see me. But he was accompanied by a skeleton girl who looked a little dumber than me…”

“They are so similar to you and me back then…”
