Chapter 1995: An urn of the Sage’s ashes Translator: GodBrandy

At this moment, the only living being that was still beside the bone of eternity was Song Shuhang.

Little White was part of the Pseudo Illusory Reality, and so he did not qualify for the ritual.

Therefore, the formation locked onto Song Shuhang and designated him as the sacrifice.

The blood condensed into a rope and as if it had become alive, it penetrated through space, wrapping around Shuhang’s body.

The wooden body seems to have been paralyzed as it was rendered unable to move. The bloody rope drilled into the wooden body and began the blood sacrifice ceremony.

In the past, it was Song Shuhang who used the roots of the lotus projection to entangle others. This time, it was his turn to be entangled by someone else’s magical technique.

This was a very normal occurrence when one was fighting against big shots; the tide could turn at any moment. One second ago, you might still be at an advantage; one second later, you may be the one in trouble.

Little White said, “That’s unfortunate.”

Song Shuhang nodded in response. He had already gotten used to such things.

The fat ball was losing its patience. One by one, its cards were being played, and its contingency plans were being activated.

With a Netherworld Ruler personally making a move, what could a mere Sixth Stage True Monarch like him do?

Little White asked, “What’s the plan?”

Song Shuhang said, “I’m already lying down and letting myself get crushed. Can you do anything to save me, Senior White?”

Although he said that he was letting himself be crushed, he actually had a plan in mind.

First, he would try using the wooden body as a sacrifice for the Pay-To-Win Strike and unleash a powerful attack.

Then, he would see if he could activate the insurance ticket given to him by the Almighty Merchant. The Almighty Merchant had managed to force his way into the Heavenly Tribulation Realm once, so perhaps he could come to his aid this time.

At the same time, he activated his QR code Golden Core Composition’s functions to see if there was anyone that could help him.

Perhaps because it sensed Song Shuhang’s strong desire to live, the QR code Golden Core Composition took the initiative to contact the friends on his friend list.

[Beep~ Tyrannical Song sent you a request for help. Do you choose to help him remotely? Yes/No.]

This message was sent to every friend that Song Shuhang had on his friend list.

This included the two big shots that he had blacklisted.

To be honest, the blacklist function of the QR code Golden Core Composition was pretty weird. The other party would be notified if they were blacklisted, and removing people from the blacklist could only be done with their consent. Moreover, blacklisted big shots could still receive global messages from Song Shuhang.

It really did not seem like a blacklist at all.

The two big shots on the blacklist were the quickest to make their decision.

[Beep~ The Indestructible Lord has rejected your request for help.]

[Beep~ Demon Emperor Hezhi has rejected your request for help. PS: Hehe.]

The Indestructible Lord was slumbering, and the refusal was an instinctive action it performed in its sleep. In this state, there was also a chance that it could choose “Yes”, and help Song Shuhang in the future.

Demon Emperor Hezhi, on the other hand, was gloating. Seeing that Profound Sage Tyrannical Song was in an unfavorable situation, he felt as if sweet nectar had dripped down his throat; he was overflowing with ecstasy.

It was a pity that he had no idea of what desperate situation Profound Sage Tyrannical Song had ended up in, so he could only send such a message.

[Beep~ Pavilion Master Chu Two has sent you some energy. PS: What’s going on?]

[Beep~ The Heavenly Emperor has sent you a little bit of energy. PS: This little bit of energy shows my love. Senior Song, you must survive!] The love that radiated from that little bit of energy was frankly heart-rending.

[Beep~ Fairy Cheng Lin has transferred your request to Striped Dragon Two. Transfer failed…] What was this?

[Beep~ Sage Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue has sent you some energy.]

[Beep~ Venerable Yellow Mountain has sent you some energy.]

There was a long list of “Beep~” that followed after.

All of the seniors of the Nine Provinces Number One group chose “Yes” and sent some energy to Song Shuhang remotely. However, the seniors of the Nine Provinces Number One Group did not have as much access to the functions of the QR code and could not add comments.

[Beep~ Sage White has sent you some energy. PS: Hold on, I will send a clone your way later.] It was the Senior White in the Heavenly Tribulation Realm. He had taken some time out of his busy schedule to send a message to Song Shuhang.

[Beep~ A stranger has sent you a little bit of energy. PS: Change eyes.]

Song Shuhang: “???”

Who’s this stranger?

Before he could react, Fairy Creation had already emerged from his chest.

Her hands moved like the wind. She extracted one of his eyes and replaced it with the Sage’s eye.

Recently, the frequency at which Shuhang had been switching eyes had become quite high. There were a good number of times when he had to put the Sage’s eye back in right after taking it out.

After the Sage’s eye was installed in his eye socket, the drop of Sage’s blood in his body began to grow restless.

At the same time, the energy of the Sage began to circulate in the wooden body.

The Scholarly Sage, huh?

Is he going to resurrect?

[No, this is not my teacher’s will. This is just another contingency plan stored inside my teacher’s eye.] Fairy Creation’s voice sounded in his head. At this critical moment, her personality had changed again.

How many plans did the Scholarly Sage prepare for Skylark?

Song Shuhang’s left eye looked at Skylark, who was being dragged away by the summoning formation.

“Have you found the person you’re looking for?” A voice came from Shuhang’s mouth.

It was the voice of the Scholarly Sage.

However, this was just a pre-recorded message from when the Sage was still alive.

He had stored it in his eye, and it was now playing out through Song Shuhang’s mouth.

Song Shuhang relaxed his control over the wooden body and gave the Sage’s eye maximum authority in using it.

Hearing the voice of the Sage, Skylark slightly turned her head, directly looking at Shuhang’s left eye.

Thousands of years later, her gaze met the gaze of the Sage again.

[At this time, it would be amazing to send out an Expert’s Appraisal!] A daring idea emerged in Song Shuhang’s mind.

And then… the Sage’s eye really did light up.

Damn, is the Sage that much of a monster?

“Bam~”

The ray of light struck Skylark. Afterward, all of the energy in Song Shuhang’s body was extracted, forming a summoning formation.

However, this formation was not used to counter-summon Skylark, but to summon a casket.

When he saw this casket, for some reason, Song Shuhang thought of Demon Emperor Hezhi.

“This is an urn,” Little White said. “This style was used in ancient times.”

Song Shuhang asked, “Was cremation that popular back then?”

The casket opened, revealing white ashes.

The ashes were filled with the aura of the Scholarly Sage.

Is this an urn of the Sage’s ashes?

Nobody ever found the Sage’s remains, and some of the scholarly faction’s disciples even suspected that the Sage’s body had been hidden or destroyed by the other guy who competed for the title of Wielder of the Will.

Now, the ashes of the Sage had appeared again.

How was this second contingency plan related to the Sage’s ashes?
