Chapter 47

"No, don't!" The girl's crying voice echoed through the endless sea of blood, accusing Mei Xue of his ravages and brutality.

How many times had he thrust in? A hundred, a thousand? Mei Xue's entire body was already covered in blood, all of which was absorbed by his skin, transforming into the power to enhance his body.

This was not a temporary surge of strength, but a true transformation, thoroughly reinforcing the human parts of Mei Xue's body.

The life laws of the Nine Abyss Seed and the life of the seas and mountains had fundamental differences, so they could not be used for this purpose. That was why Mei Xue came here, seeking the most powerful divine blood of the seas and mountains.

In terms of vital energy, the nine-headed giant snake's vital energy was top-notch, even in the ancient era of the primordial chaos. The endless sea of blood was the best proof.

For Mei Xue, who needed a large amount of life force to change his own life essence, this was the most suitable prey.

He devoured and assimilated until his body could no longer contain it. Countless undigested life essences even formed hundreds of tiny blood beads within his body before Mei Xue's sword finally stopped.

He couldn't absorb any more; further absorption would be meaningless and would only burst his body. The life force stored in Mei Xue's body was already more than half of the nine-headed giant snake's.

It was important to note that this was the life essence of a descendant of the ancient primordial divine blood, the source of the endless sea of blood.

Only a small part of it was used to transform Mei Xue's body, while the majority remained in his body as blood beads, preparing for future advancements.

This was the "true power" Mei Xue yearned for, not relying on the legacy of the Nine Abyss Seed or the countless battle memories in the Heavenly Terrace controlling his body, but the power from within himself.

As Mei Xue grew, these blood beads would gradually seep into his body, giving him nearly infinite stamina and combat power.

Indeed, just like the nine-headed giant snake that controlled the endless sea of blood, as long as the sea of blood did not dry up, his combat power would never wane. Unless there was a power like the Heavenly Sword that could overwhelm everything, Mei Xue would never be at a disadvantage in battles of the same level or even higher.

"Don't... don't do this... my... my most important thing..." The girl cried even harder as she sensed her life essence being stolen.

The endless sea of blood, which was originally infinite, now had only half left, indicating that the life essence of the nine-headed giant snake had been largely taken by Mei Xue.

Mei Xue raised his silver crystal sword again.

This time it was truly the final blow. To leave no traces, he had to completely kill this terrifying nine-headed giant snake.

It was not difficult. The nine-headed giant snake, having lost most of its life essence, could not even resist. One more thrust would destroy the blood bead and make the endless sea of blood disappear forever.

Without the life force of the endless sea of blood, the nine-headed giant snake with divine blood would self-destruct.

"Swish!" The sharp silver blade pierced the deepest part of the blood bead, then encountered the final resistance.

It was the core of the blood bead, the source that created the endless sea of blood. The silver crystal sword touched something that did not possess life essence, a lifeless object.

"Don't!" The girl's voice was like the mournful cry of a swan before death, moving even the hardest of hearts.

"Stop! I will agree to all your demands!" Another voice echoed, the voice of the ruler of the deepest layer of the Green Wasteland.

All because Mei Xue's silver crystal sword was about to shatter a small wooden plaque, inscribed with a poem of a perfect marriage.

The wooden plaque read:

"Under the Green Wood, eternal spring, give this to Xiao Liu."

The page in the *Classic of Mountains and Seas* representing the nine-headed giant snake suddenly lit up, revealing a line of fine script. It was a page from Mei Xue's lost memories, one of the 999 heartbreaks.

"March 20th, sunny."

"That girl was really strange. Why couldn't anyone around her see her, yet she walked happily down the street, curious about everything."

"She wore a head ornament I had never seen before, nine identical crystal snake heads, looking a bit odd."

"Why did she suddenly stop, looking so lonely? Was it because everyone ignored her?"

"Then, I'll try."

"I failed. She seemed terrified and ran away without a trace."

"March 21st, sunny."

"A major event happened at Mount Tiantai. It's said that the passage to the secret realm of Mount Tiantai became distorted, and something huge came out of the entrance."

"Today, I met that strange girl again. She was wearing a red dress, barefoot, and secretly watching everyone in the market."

"It wasn't market day, yet she was so happy just watching, as if that was enough to satisfy her."

"What a strange girl, always making me worry. So, I decided to talk to her."

"March 23rd, rainy."

"The secret realm passage of Mount Tiantai is said to have a major problem. The academy has urgently requested the Immortal Gate of Mount Huang to handle it, but it will take at least a week to resolve. Although it's not related to us ordinary students, the passage always seems to have problems. I hope nothing goes wrong this time."

"Today, I finally learned her name. She's called Xiao Liu and comes from a very far place, and can only stay here for a few days."

"I don't know where Xiao Liu comes from. She knows nothing, and everyone seems to ignore her, even though she is such an innocent child."

"No, correction, Xiao Liu seems a bit strange. She beat me up today, saying that if I dared to deceive her sister, she would eat me, and that she has eaten many people."

"But, wasn't yesterday's Xiao Liu the same as today's?"

"March 24th, rainy."

"Xiao Liu apologized, saying that the one who beat me yesterday was her sister, Xiao Xiang. They are twins. This was a big surprise. So, yesterday's wasn't really Xiao Liu. No wonder she was so violent and liked to beat people. I wonder if she really meant to eat people..."

"Strange, today's Xiao Liu seems a bit different from yesterday's. I always have to explain things to her again, but her personality is still gentle, completely different from Xiao Xiang."

"March 27th, today I was with Xiao Liu again. I don't know if it's an illusion, but every day I spend with Xiao Liu, she seems a little different, but no matter which day, Xiao Liu is always a gentle and kind girl. Being with her always makes me forget the time."

"March 29th, I decided to confess to Xiao Liu and give her the gift I prepared."

"Why did I meet Xiao Xiang instead? Where is Xiao Liu? I was beaten so badly today. Xiao Xiang didn't listen to me at all and just beat me up. It hurt so much."

"March 30th, the secret realm passage of Mount Tiantai was sealed. Xiao Liu and Xiao Xiang disappeared, as if they had never appeared."

"I, have I fallen in love again?"

Mei Xue saw it, the wooden plaque inside the transparent blood bead, and his sword stopped.

Actually, he had long forgotten.

Actually, he had long let go.

But, he could not forget the handwriting, nor could he mistake the patterns on the wooden plaque.

Because, it was something he had made himself, carefully selecting the wood and crafting it with his still unskilled hands.

But, who was it for? Why did he make it? He had forgotten everything.

Xiao Liu, was it for the girl with that name? Mei Xue looked at the small wooden plaque and finally did not thrust in.

Although, piercing through the wooden plaque would have meant certain death for the other party.

Because the position of the wooden plaque was the core of the other's life, the most precious treasure hidden and protected by the endless sea of blood.

"Under the Green Wood... Xiao Liu..." Putting away his silver crystal sword, Mei Xue turned around, no longer looking at the semi-transparent blood bead.

"Roar!" As Mei Xue turned, the nine-headed giant snake, which had somehow regrown one head, roared, glaring fiercely at the retreating Mei Xue.

But, that gaze soon turned to shock and confusion.

Because the power of the Nine Abyss Seed in Mei Xue's body was slowly dissipating, his silver hair gradually turned black, and his extraordinary appearance, which was not human, returned to his original form.

In the blood bead at the tail of the nine-headed giant snake, the unfinished outline saw that back and suddenly trembled, then began to tear through the surrounding blood curtain, trying to come out.

"No, Xiao Liu, you can't come out yet!" The remaining head of the nine-headed giant snake quickly protected the blood bead, trying to stop the girl's outline from coming out.

But, it was too late. A small, white hand had already emerged, tightly gripping the small wooden plaque.

"Don't go... stay..." It was still a pleading voice, but this time not out of pain, but from the deepest part of her heart, a prayer.

She hoped that person would hear, hoped that the back would stay.

"Xiao Liu! Stop!" The voice of the nine-headed giant snake echoed through the heavens and earth, but it could not stop the girl in love.

The girl in the red immortal robe finally emerged from the blood bead.

Her name was Xiao Liu, the girl the nine-headed giant snake desperately wanted to protect, the true descendant of divine blood, the true master of the endless sea of blood, and the divine child born from the ninth layer of the Green Wasteland.
