Chapter 538: Chapter 34: Lighting the 7th Life Lamp

“It’s the final test of the legacy…”

Fu Yingying explained, “The so-called Charming Intent, is to enchant someone inside and out, making them willingly do anything for you, regardless of life or death… To obtain this legacy, it requires someone with a charm relationship with you, willing to give everything!”

Zhang Xuan suddenly understood.

It was puzzling just now, considering that when they were in the Fu Family in Zouyi City, the assessment required the enchanted to participate, but not here. It turns out it’s the final test.

The bridge behind, eerie to the extreme, entering it was like stepping into the underworld. For ordinary people, facing such a life-threatening situation without the courage to die for a lover, no one would dare to come over.

“It seems the other corpses on the stone pillars, all waited in vain for their lovers to come…” Zhang Xuan was silent.

Qingqiu Mountain is assessed once a century. Even if not every time there are talents entering the bridge, over thousands of years, at least dozens or a dozen entered. And these people ultimately never obtained the legacy. The reason should lie here.

Those enchanted by charm, who dare not come in to rescue, can only become mummies, unable to escape even in death.

“I will save you…”

These thoughts flashed through his mind. Zhang Xuan shook his head and took large strides forward.

He originally just wanted to see what was at the end of the bridge but by chance encountered the situation. In that case, save the person first.

Chi chi chi chi!

As he advanced, countless viscous shadows surged madly towards him, like sharks smelling blood, or wolves starved for days, frenzied and rampaging.

“These should all be those resentful spirits of lovers who never arrived…”

The enchanted, willing to do anything for the enchanter, ignoring life and death, is essentially an unrestrained love, worthy of being called “lover.”

The shadows charging at him, gnawing, are presumably born from the intent of those corpses on the stone pillars. They have endured countless years up there, when all expectations were exhausted, forming a resentment even gods cannot dissolve.

This accumulated resentment forms their current appearance, attacking and not letting go.

Since life is miserable, they ensure that no one else finds happiness…

“Begone!”

Six Life Lamps lit simultaneously, resembling bonfires in the night. The shadows touching him immediately sizzled like ice on a hot iron, emitting “sss la la” sounds.

“Skeletons…”

He advanced steadily, occasionally encountering a skeleton or two on the ground.

It seems not all those enchanted were daunted by the bridge. But even if they came, lacking strength, they were eventually torn to pieces by resentful spirits, falling before their lovers.

“These shadows contain endless resentment, but essentially it’s born from love and hope. Without love, there is no resentment; without resentment, there is no hate…”

Accompanying his progress, thoughts flowed in his mind.

The interaction and integration of Youqing Destiny and soul comprehension caused his Source Pool to flicker slowly, like faint stars.

Boom!

After an indeterminate time, the stars suddenly released radiant light, like a supernova explosion, or the moon emerging from storm clouds.

The seventh Life Lamp… the Yin Yang Reversing Destiny Lamp lit up!

Glug glug glug glug!

With this lamp’s ignition, Zhang Xuan immediately felt his soul becoming purer and stronger, his entire aura also enhanced significantly.

“Since love can transform into resentment, why can’t resentment transform back into love… Understanding the meaning of life and death, everything is clear now.”

With a gentle smile, he waved his hand.

Like sunlight dispersing fog, the surrounding darkness immediately brightened with him as the center. Under sunlight, the numerous attacking resentful spirits slowly dissolved, transforming into pure energy, entering his body and nourishing it.

“It’s done…”

Zhang Xuan’s eyes sparkled.

He thought he needed more time, but unexpectedly, the Enlightenment Stone was of great help.

It seems coming here was indeed right.

Lighting seven Life Lamps, his soul power alone surpassed the physical, meaning with just his soul, he could easily slay any Bodhisattva, possibly even withstand a Buddha-level existence.

Not only that, understanding the transformation from resentment to hate, and from hate to love, his insight into Love Destiny improved, and his cultivation smoothly broke through to the Seventh Dan of Life Sea, reaching the Seventh Level in understanding the fragments of the heavens.

This journey to Qingqiu Mountain allowed him to repay the Fu Family’s kindness and Hu Sheng’s help, with tremendous personal progress.

Bodhisattvas and Buddhas belong to different realms, only stepping over signifies truly standing at the Source World’s pinnacle.

Of course, as the Buddha has dwelled in this realm for years, it’s nearly impossible to kill him with just a soul breakthrough, but he can ensure he’s no longer as embarrassed as before, even having the strength to battle.

“Let’s go, since I’m here, you needn’t suffer anymore…”

Slowly approaching the stone pillar, Zhang Xuan gently smiled, and with a wave of his hand, “Crash!” The chains binding Fu Yingying shattered instantly.

“Thank you…”

Fu Yingying bowed, gratitude nearly pulling threads from her eyes.

Reaching the legacy’s final step, she knew the outcome but never disclosed it to Zhang Xuan. Unexpectedly, he still came to save her, and even swifter than she imagined.

Boom!

As she stepped off the stone pillar, a mysterious force descended, enveloping her. The bridge and darkness shattered in an instant, with the previously vanished River of Destiny reappearing above her, raining gentle light.

“She’s about to inherit the entire Fox Charm Destiny…”

Seeing this, Zhang Xuan nodded secretly.

Presumably, she’d passed the final test, fully inheriting the “Charming Intent,” and realized the Soul Quintessence of Fox Charm Destiny.

“I should return now!”

With this circumstance emerging, nobody in the Qingqiu lineage would dare oppose Fu Yingying. Zhang Xuan no longer lingered, gently shaking as his intent returned to his body.

Slowly opening his eyes, he saw the River of Destiny reappear in the sky, with pure Fox Charm Heavenly Destiny Essence Power showering down, like raindrops entering each cultivator’s forehead, accelerating their cultivation and insights.

This must be the great opportunity Hu Sheng mentioned.

If anyone fully understands the Fox Charm Destiny, tribal members also gain immeasurable benefits.

It’s akin to Zhang Xuan advancing, from which Fu Yingying also benefits.

Looking at it now, the long-dormant Qingqiu Mountain lineage is about to shine again. Although it might not match the ever-thriving Buddhist Sect, it likely won’t be weaker than factions like the Soul Division or Nine Poison Sect.
