Under the current of the river condensed from thousands of Time Sabers, Wang Daoyi’s lifespan quickly flowed away.
When Cui Heng brought him to Daozhou Star, he only had less than a day left to live. He was in a state where he could pass away at any time.
However, as soon as he arrived near Daozhou Star, his vitality began to recover quickly. In the blink of an eye, he recovered a thousand years of his lifespan.
Unfortunately, in the next moment, the river of time washed over and shaved away his recovered lifespan, leaving him with less than a day of lifespan.
Immediately after, Wang Daoyi’s lifespan began to recover, and the river of time continued to wash over him.
As this cycle continued, Wang Daoyi’s lifespan was still maintained at one day.
“Daozhou Star is indeed special. I couldn’t even sense it in the past.” Cui Heng’s gaze was fixed on the approaching star with a complicated expression.
When he first entered the Nascent Soul realm, he had investigated Daozhou Star very carefully, but in the end, he did not find anything special.
Later on, although he also returned to Daozhou Star, he did not sense anything unusual.
However, as he understood many secrets, he realized that more and more secrets were related to this very ordinary star.
Daozhou Star was like a star covered in layers of fog. Although one could see the surface of the fog clearly, its true appearance was extremely difficult to pry into.
This time, Cui Heng brought Wang Daoyi here purely to try and see if there was any connection between Wang Daoyi and Daozhou Star.
After all, the Dao God called Wang Zhouyuan had painstakingly crossed the starry sky to establish the Daoyi Heavenly Court and enlighten all living beings, allowing this place to give birth to a civilization.
It turned out that his guess was right. Wang Daoyi really had some strange connection with this place. It could even help him recover his vitality and maintain his lifespan.
“Who exactly are you?” Wang Daoyi gritted his teeth and said.
At this moment, he was already old. His hair was white, and his face was filled with wrinkles. He looked withered like rotten wood, as if he could fall to the ground at any moment and never get up again.
“I’m just an ordinary cultivator,” Cui Heng said indifferently. At the same time, he flicked his finger, and a gap appeared in the river of time, making Wang Daoyi’s connection with the outside world even stronger.
Hence, Wang Daoyi’s lifespan soared again, but it was still unable to surpass the speed at which the river of time reduced his lifespan. His lifespan was still maintained at about a day.
However, this allowed Cui Heng to clearly sense the source of this connection.
It was actually in the Daoyi Palace in Yongzhou.
“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll use this connection to ask for help?” Wang Daoyi said in a low voice.
“If you could really ask for help, you wouldn’t have said this.” Cui Heng shook his head gently and smiled. “Without my permission, do you think this power can find you?”
“…” Wang Daoyi fell silent when he heard this. He gently closed his eyes and said as if he had given up on himself, “Kill me.”
“Answer some of my questions, and perhaps I can spare your life,” Cui Heng persuaded very sincerely.
“No comment,” Wang Daoyi said without hesitation. “Kill me.”
“I can give you another chance…” Cui Heng continued to persuade, but he was interrupted before he could finish.
“Kill me.” Wang Daoyi seemed to be determined to die. He completely ignored his own life and death.
“…” Cui Heng was silent for a moment before he smiled again. “Can you leave this place once you’re dead?”
“It’s up to you,” Wang Daoyi said indifferently. “Or you can directly use the Soul Searching Technique and read my memories yourself.”
“You’re so fearless, but it makes me think that you’re really bluffing.” Cui Heng gently touched his chin and suddenly smiled. “Why don’t I kill you once as an experiment?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly slapped out. The Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Technique and the Heavenly Thunder Origin Magnetic Divine Light erupted at the same time, instantly enveloping Wang Daoyi.
Even Wang Daoyi, who was at his peak, had to go all out to resist these two spells after losing two supreme treasures, let alone now that he was old and extremely weak.
Therefore, with just these two spells, Wang Daoyi was instantly destroyed in body and soul. Not even a trace was left. He should have completely turned to ashes.
Only a wisp of True Spirit was left. It had yet to be completely destroyed.
If Wang Daoyi was an Immortal cultivator, no matter how powerful Cui Heng was or how many techniques he had left, he could only do this much.
That was because even an Early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator’s True Spirit was indestructible. Only a Return to Void Realm expert could completely destroy a Nascent Soul cultivator’s True Spirit.
Unfortunately, this Wang Daoyi had strength comparable to the Early-stage Soul Formation realm, but he did not have this indestructible characteristic.
As long as his True Spirit was completely destroyed, he would completely die and no longer exist. He would never have a chance to start over.
However, the moment Cui Heng destroyed Wang Daoyi’s soul, a strange power suddenly surged out of Wang Daoyi’s True Spirit.
The level of this power was infinitely close to the peak of the Early-stage Soul Formation realm. It was not inferior to the current Cui Heng at all as it tried to bring this True Spirit into the void.
