Time passed slowly. The tomb of the Dark Emperor was very quiet. Only the ballads reverberated gently. They gradually soothed the sadness in Wang Baole’s heart. The exhaustion in his heart dissipated at that moment and turned into a deep sleep.

It was very safe, very warm, and very stable.

The Dark River in the outside world seemed to have a spirit. It seemed to have sensed the ballads from Wang Yiyi as well. Gradually, there were no more waves. Even the countless souls inside had calmed down and were no longer screaming in pain.

As for the underworld star, it was unknown if it had also been affected. It also calmed down, and no sound could be heard. It seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.

Looking around, the Underworld River was quiet. The underworld star was silent, and all living things were peaceful. Only Wang Yiyi’s voice seemed to have spread out from the Underworld River and reverberated throughout the entire underworld.

“The wind blows gently, and the birds cry softly. Baby is not sad, go to sleep…”

“Xue’er floats slowly, and tears fall quietly. Baby is not sad. When you wake up, you smile happily…”

The voice was gentle, without the slightest bit of viciousness or sharpness. There was only gentleness like water, gentleness like wind… . Slowly, it fell into the center of the endless vortex above the ninth underworld, within the lonely figure’s heart and mind.

The figure sat there cross-legged, as if he were holding up the vortex in the starry sky. He was suppressing the endless underworld. His heart, his dao, everything about him was cold and detached. But now… as the song fused into him.., he slowly opened his eyes, lowered his head, and stared at the Dark River.

Time passed slowly. Ten days, thirty days, a hundred days..

Wang Baole woke up.

When he opened his eyes, there was a look of confusion and reminiscence in his eyes. He stared blankly at the familiar face that was staring at him. He saw the gentleness in the eyes of the face, and the ballad still reverberated faintly in his ears, it was as if he was in a dream.

In the dream, an ancient bronze sword did not appear in the Solar System. In the dream… There was no conflict within the federation. In the dream… the spiritual energy on Earth was still thin and there were no cultivators.

In the dream… he was a little fatty. He lived in a small city and was ordinary.

He was admitted to a not very good university. After graduating there, he entered society. He worked muddleheaded and fell in love. He experienced the failure of his job and the loss of love. Although his body gradually became less fat.., the vicissitudes of life on his face gradually increased.

He had also married a wife. He also had his own children. Like other ordinary people, although his work was not good and his income was not high, if he did not desire wealth and honor, he could still live comfortably. However, he was calm and indifferent.., he gradually forgot the dreams of his youth. He forgot the sunshine of his youth. He became silent and lost. He turned unhappiness into happiness. His heart was older than his body.

He grew older and older, until his hair turned white. He lay on the hospital bed and looked at the ceiling. A regretful past slowly appeared in his mind.

Those regrets weaved together his entire life. However, within those regrets, there were some figures that dotted his memories.

There were parents, children, friends, and… beautiful figures that passed by in his life.

Among the beautiful figures, there was his first love, his wife from the past, someone who thanked him, someone who sighed regretfully, and someone who he thought would spend the rest of his life with.

In the end, the scenes that surfaced from his youth to his old age continued. He thought that… with the closing of his eyes, everything would end. However, at the instant he closed his eyes, a ray of light appeared before his eyes.

The light was very warm, and Wang baole vaguely understood that he had been searching for it all his life. It was the same in his previous life, and it seemed to be the same in this life.

Perhaps he was searching for someone to become his sustenance.

Or perhaps he wasn’t searching for someone, but to find his true self.

It was contradictory. It was the same as him wanting to revive his master. It was right, but it was also wrong.

That was because it was just his own thoughts. If he thought that his master was still alive, everything would be fine. However, more than that… in reality, it was his own thoughts that took precedence. He did not consider his master’s feelings, his master’s fatigue, his master’s helplessness.., his master did not want to see them fall out with each other.

It was just like the Dao that he thought was complete.

It did not matter whether he decided his fate or whether he led the cause and effect. Let the ordinary be at peace, let the extraordinary be extraordinary. Everything was actually his own thoughts.

There was a need for reincarnation, but fate and karma weren’t important. Everything came down to… One’s heart.

“That’s why master said that my dao isn’t complete. I thought that my dao would allow me to be free and unfettered, and that was the right thing to do. However, in reality… freedom itself might be my dao.”

Wang baole stared at the face in front of him for a long, long time.

“Your ballad is very nice,”Wang Baole said softly.

“When I was young, every time I was sad, my mother would hug me like this and sing me a ballad…”little Missy said softly.

Wang Baole’s heart began to fill with the stories he knew about Wang Yiyi. He understood the pain she had experienced as a child, and he also understood that she was just a remnant soul.

“Thank you,”Wang Baole murmured. He slowly sat up and stood up. Wang Yiyi smiled and patted Wang Baole on the head.

“Little Baole, promise me that you’ll be happy and smile more.”As she spoke, she gave Wang Baole a deep look. She turned into a ray of green light and merged into the mask on Wang Baole’s body.

“Be happy and smile more… I Promise You,”Wang Baole mumbled. He looked around silently. After a long while, a smile appeared on his face. It looked very real, very real..

However, there was no sound of laughter. There was only a single expression on Wang Baole’s face. With a very real smile, he bowed to the spot where his master had disappeared. With a smile on his face, he turned around and left the tomb of the Dark Emperor. With a smile on his face, he walked into the Dark River, with a smile on his face, he walked into the Dark River… one step at a time.

He didn’t leave the Dark River. Instead, he searched within the Dark River. With a smile on his face, he searched for his second target for entering the Dark River, the ascending realm plate!

This was a supreme treasure that could allow the federation’s civilization to leap to a higher level. It existed within the Dark River.

At the same time, the boundless death qi contained within the Dark River was also a nutrient that improved Wang Baole’s soul. As he walked forward, he relaxed his mind. The intrinsic scabbard in his body began to buzz. Strands of death qi gathered from all directions, they continued to fuse with him.

As he walked further away, more and more death qi gathered. Wang Baole’s soul continued to absorb it. It gradually overflowed from the perfected state. As it moved towards the galaxy, it also tilted towards Wang Baole’s cultivation, it allowed his cultivation at the late-stage of the star realm to gradually increase towards the perfected state.

His star sealing art was operating.

The tens of thousands of unique stars behind him were slowly transforming into stars. When they all became stars, it meant that Wang Baole’s cultivation had reached the pinnacle of the perfected stage of the Star Realm.

At that time, with a single thought, he would be able to spread out the star map as if the heavens and earth had been split open, forming… a celestial domain!

At that time, he would be at the Celestial Domain Realm!

And he would be at the never-before-seen level of power… the celestial domain grade!

That was because his galaxy was formed with the Dao Heng as its core, the nine Dao Daos as its laws, and the tens of thousands of unique stars as its laws. It was a perfect galaxy!

Wang Baole’s smile remained. As he walked forward, he saw many ruins within the Dark River. He saw many ferocious spirits pouncing at him upon encountering them.

He walked past the ruins with a smile on his face.

He killed the ferocious spirits with a smile on his face. Occasionally, he would raise his head and look beyond the Dark River. When he looked at the figures within the nine Serenities Vortex, he also had a genuine, genuine smile on his face.

“Be happy. Smile more.”
