YM778.TV Chapter 57 You Must Have A Goal
I just discovered my cheat-code, there’s no way I’m letting it get away!
Expectantly waiting for Li Meirong’s form inside her consciousness to turn back and resurface, Feng Huang stayed behind. She had the powers to reach inside a person’s essence, but she couldn’t delve all the way through.
She had to convince the girl to turn back!
Yet, the girl chose to defy her expectations right now, of all times!
Li Meirong stammered stubbornly as she pushed herself against her body’s current, "N-no. I’m s-sick of relying on others. I always end up getting used, and in the end, the one who stays h-helpless is me."
Feng Huang wondered what encounters Li Meirong had in her life for her to feel this way. It seems the girl was not as dumb as she thought she was. It couldn’t possibly be...Did she discover her plans to use her body’s life essence for cultivation?
Nervously, she responded, "Let’s talk this through, alright? Come back here now."
Li Meirong shook her head. She felt as if her body was tearing into pieces. She wanted to give up already, but she was so close! The light was right in front of her. Why can’t she reach it?!
Feng Huang sensed the dimension cracking, it was as though an earthquake large enough to consume this entire place had occurred. A deafening booming noise reverberated through the library. Several scrolls rattled and dropped from the shelves. It was obvious by now, this was no interspatial ring! This dimension was a creation of Li Meirong’s. Somehow, this useless girl who couldn’t cultivate produced such a grand treasure and now that she’s dying, the dimension would extinguish with her!
Seeing as the stubborn girl kept ignoring her life-saving attempts, Feng Huang frustratedly sighed.
Oh, the mess she put herself in! Naturally, if this girl dies, she would die too, seeing as she’s stuck inside her metaphysical dimension!
"You must have a goal! What do you want the most in life!? What is it that you strive for!? Maybe there’s an injustice to fight or revenge to seek!" Feng Huang questioned, as calmly as she could, under her current circumstances. Actually, she really wanted to strangle the girl for jeopardizing her precious turtle life.
Li Meirong extended her arms forward. Her palms were outstretched, ready to grab the flame as soon as she came close enough to it.
She really didn’t need a psychology lesson at the moment!
Still, Li Meirong couldn’t help but wonder, what was it she wanted most in her life?
The world was filled with injustice, but who could she possibly put the blame on? There was no grand revenge to seek....She simply didn’t want to be alone. She didn’t want to be discarded. She wanted a family, someone to always stick by her side and never let go.
Everyday, Li Meirong woke up because she needed to. She worked hard because she had to. Even in her previous life, she couldn’t think it through as to what she "wanted" to do.
Always finding ways to keep the loneliness at bay.
At once, her bright limpid eyes noticed a familiar image as it suddenly visualized. It was a tall, handsome silver-haired man with a foreboding presence, cloaked in smoky shadows. Li Meirong recognized the vision, it was the same breathtaking man she met years ago. He stood in front of her as an apparition of her mind. His thin lips opened as he spoke, but she couldn’t hear what he said. His phantom hand reached for hers. As her rosy-pale hand connected with his ghost-like one, he immediately intertwined his fingers with hers. A warm and pleasant sensation took over Li Meirong’s soul, taking away her pain and providing her with utmost comfort.
He vanished as fast as he arrived. Just as their fingers fully crossed against each other, his ethereal form disappeared altogether. In her hands now lingered the same blue flame she tried so hard to grasp hold of.
Li Meirong panted heavily, her muscles felt sore and aching. The small flame in her hands grew larger and larger until it engulfed her from head to toe like a violent inferno, yet she felt not an ounce of discomfort from it. At first, the flame’s warmth could only be felt on the outside, covering her skin, but soon she sensed it coursing through her limbs in a soft and gentle manner. The blue fire merged with her flesh and was absorbed into her meridians.
As the fire coursed through her body, Li Meirong became completely revitalized! In fact, she never felt as good as she did right now. She could feel her body remake itself anew and all the ailments on her body and soul had disappeared.
Turning back, she slowly made her way out of her consciousness. On the way, she passed by the same empty pond from before.
Her eyes widened in surprise. It was filled to the brim! A clear, translucent spring. The fresh liquid’s colours were like that of the tropical ocean waters. The lightest teal, aqua, and deep blue.
Even clever Feng Huang was stunned speechless. After cultivating for a thousand years, her dantian had still not filled one-fourth of its capacity, not to mention her "pond" was so much smaller!
How many cheats does this girl have?!
For a second there, she was sure they would both die, and then suddenly....Suddenly she turned from trash to a genius!
Whatever Li Meirong had been eating, the turtle demoness wanted some of it!
