Chapter 1937
But everything has vanished like a bubble.
True despair is not a state worse than death.
It's something that makes it impossible for someone to even die.
Su Yao tried to stand up and found that it didn't hurt much.
If you want to die, it's simple: just find a sharp object and stab it in your neck or wrist.
However, this method only treats the symptoms, not the root cause.
As a powerful disciple of a god, her physical body is no longer something that can be destroyed by ordinary weapons. Even if she were to obtain a divine sword imbued with divine power, sharp enough to easily cut through the skin of a powerful disciple of a god, what difference would it make?
As a powerful disciple of the gods, one can already regenerate from a drop of blood. As long as the soul is immortal, one can live forever in the world and coexist with heaven and earth.
This also means that even if one were to encounter a magical weapon capable of cutting flesh, severing one's neck or wrist, blood would flow freely.
Even so, as long as there is a sliver of hope, one can immediately be reborn from the ashes and return to peak condition.
So this is the prison I built for myself?
Su Yao suddenly realized.
The physical body that cultivators dream of is sometimes not a powerful weapon, but rather a more solid cage. There is probably no more suitable place in the world to imprison a soul.
This was the first time Su Yao had been stumped by such a situation. She had considered all sorts of ways to die, but she never expected it to be such a desperate way to die.
At this moment, Su Yao, who had finally lost all hope, sat there blankly like a broken-down car that had completely broken down, remaining motionless as time passed.
Meanwhile, in the manor that belonged exclusively to Li Lan, Da Niu, and Wang Tianye, on the second floor of Li Lan's manor, Li Lan and Da Niu sat on either side of a square table by the window, looking out at the scenery.
This was supposed to be a very pleasant view.
But at this moment, Da Niu picked up a glass of strong liquor from the table, took a big gulp, slammed it on the table, and said anxiously:
"Brother Li Lan, when are we going to set off to rescue Miss Su Yao?"
"If we don't act now, it will be too late!"
Da Niu was so anxious he didn't know what to do.
He knew that this rescue plan was entirely arranged by Li Lan. With his cultivation level, let alone rescuing Su Yao, it was questionable whether he could even reach the Fifth Elder Peak. He might be eliminated as a spy as soon as he reached the foot of the mountain.
Therefore, Da Niu was extremely restless at this moment.
But he couldn't urge Li Lan too much, so he could only ask Li Lan when he would make his move.
"Brother Da Niu, there's no need to worry. Miss Su Yao is fine now. Let's wait for another opportunity. You can relax for now."
Li Lan picked up the wine glass on the table, took a small sip, and a spicy taste slid down her throat, making her feel refreshed and invigorated. She couldn't help but shout out.
"Cool!"
This wine was something Li Lan had kept in his storage bag for a long time. It didn't possess any divine power or nourish the body; it was just ordinary white wine, but even for a powerful cultivator, it was a valuable item.
Therefore, at this moment, Li Lan's eyes were firm, and a glass of strong liquor made his thoughts much clearer.
In fact, everything on the Fifth Elder Peak was within Li Lan's divine sense's detection range.
Li Lan did not act rashly because he was still using his divine sense to explore the other elder peaks.
If there's any place within the entire Star Devouring Sect where that bone might be hidden, it would definitely be one of the elders' peaks, the sect leader's main hall, or perhaps the ancestral land or forbidden area belonging to the entire sect.
But Li Lan still hasn't found a place where the bones were buried.
There is only one possibility: that the bone is not in the sect at all.
Therefore, given that the safety of the entire Boundless Realm cannot be guaranteed, they must be extremely careful with every step they take.
Looking into the main hall of the Fifth Elder Peak, Su Yao lay motionless on the ground in despair.
