Chapter 700: The Meaning of Immortality

Hai Yixue has a pair of unique eyes from birth, able to see others’ souls and their deepest memories!

Therefore, when she first met Jiang Yun, she already knew what had happened between Jiang Yun and the Snow clan.

She also saw another soul existing within Jiang Yun’s body.

Especially after paying the price with one eye, she saw some horrifying scenes.

Because of Jiang Yun’s relationship with Xue Qing, and her concern that the soul inside Jiang Yun might take over, she decided to ignore her father’s warnings and tell Jiang Yun about those scenes.

But at that moment, as she was about to speak, a scene appeared again in her only left eye.

In the scene, the sky of the entire Mountain-Sea Desolate World began to collapse, and the earth crumbled layer by layer.

Whether they were part of the Sea clan or any creatures living inside The Great Wilderness Realm, they all cried out in despair as they perished one by one.

Then, following a dazzling burst of light, the entire Mountain-Sea Desolate World vanished without a trace, leaving only endless darkness.

These sights lasted only a moment, and Hai Yixue’s vision returned to normal, everything being just an illusion.

However, her heart was filled with shock and fear.

She knew that the fleeting images were a warning!

This warning must have come from the soul residing within Jiang Yun.

Just like her lost right eye.

If she were to tell Jiang Yun about the contents of those images, the illusion of the disappearing Mountain-Sea Desolate World she just witnessed would become reality.

While Hai Yixue could disregard her own safety, she couldn’t ignore the safety of the Mountain-Sea Desolate World, and couldn’t let the few remaining creatures in this realm go extinct.

Therefore, after a moment of silence, she gently said, "I’m sorry, I can’t say."

What Hai Yixue saw in that moment, along with the shock on her face, was naturally invisible to Jiang Yun and unknown to him.

However, despite Hai Yixue’s answer sounding like a refusal, Jiang Yun, with his sensitive mind, understood it immediately upon hearing it.

It’s not that she doesn’t want to say, or unwilling to say, but she cannot say!

There must be some unavoidable hardship, so he nodded in understanding, smiled slightly, and said, "It’s nothing, I still want to thank you!"

Hai Yixue hesitated with her words, intending to say something to make up for it to Jiang Yun, but in the end, she didn’t say anything at all.

Jiang Yun indeed stopped asking further, shifted his gaze away from Hai Yixue, and looked around.

Here, it should have been the original location of the Seeking-Tao Sect’s main gate.

But now, it had already turned into ruins in the battle between himself and Yue Qing.

Other than the still-standing Seeking-Tao Five Peaks, there was no longer a trace of the Seeking-Tao Sect’s existence.

This made Jiang Yun feel a bit sad and nostalgic.

However, he quickly put aside these feelings.

The Seeking-Tao Sect did not disappear, and his memories of this place would not disappear either.

Although Jiang Yun wanted to visit Jiang village, see the One Hundred Thousand Mang Mountains, and revisit this world full of memories, he eventually gave up on the idea.

Whether he looked or not, it didn’t make a difference.

Because everything was already deeply hidden in his heart.

Just as Jiang Yun was about to stop looking and leave with Yue Qing, Hai Changsheng suddenly spoke again, "Have you truly made up your mind?"

Jiang Yun was usually clear about his decisions, but he felt conflicted about Hai Changsheng.

He admitted that Hai Changsheng had been very kind to him, and since Hai Changsheng was also Xue Qing’s father, he was considered an elder and deserved respect.

But Hai Changsheng, for his own selfish reasons, committed a crime by killing tens of millions of creatures in the Mountain-Sea World, which made it impossible for Jiang Yun to forgive him.

Seeing Jiang Yun quiet, Hai Changsheng couldn’t help but know what he was thinking, so he smiled and turned to Dao Lianer, saying, "Can I take him somewhere?"

Dao Lianer kept silently watching Jiang Yun, understanding that Jiang Yun needed more time to say goodbye to the Mountain-Sea World. So when she heard Hai Changsheng’s words, she nodded gently.

As for Yue Qing, she completely ignored him, and he didn’t care either since Jiang Yun couldn’t escape, so he didn’t stop them.

Hai Changsheng gently raised his hand, and a mist of water instantly enveloped Jiang Yun and Hai Yixue, making them disappear in an instant.

Jiang Yun did not resist Hai Changsheng’s actions and allowed himself to be taken to the deepest part of the Boundary Sea, where he saw a transparent coffin!

Inside the coffin lay a middle-aged beautiful woman with snow-white skin and tightly closed eyes.

Although she appeared to be sleeping, she was actually dead.

Looking at the beautiful woman’s face, Jiang Yun could easily tell that she was Xue Qing and Hai Yixue’s mother, a member of the Snow clan!

Hai Changsheng also gazed at the beautiful woman in the coffin, his face showing a gentle expression, and his eyes revealing a rare kindness.

So, Hai Changsheng gazed at the beautiful woman affectionately, and after a while, he spoke again, "Actually, I know that with my strength, I can’t help you resist Yue Qing and protect you."

"Just like I couldn’t protect my wife, couldn’t protect my daughter."

"When you heard my name, you must have found it funny."

"Changsheng, a Spirit of the Boundary Sea pursuing longevity."

"Actually, the reason I named myself Changsheng was not because I wanted to live forever, but because I hoped my wife could live forever!"

Hearing this, Jiang Yun suddenly realized.

No wonder when he mocked Hai Changsheng for not being immortal, it was like touching a nerve and making him furious.

Originally, he named himself Changsheng, meaning "Long Life", after Xue Qing’s mother!

At that moment, Hai Yixue suddenly spoke up, "Dad, let me help you with the rest!"

Hai Changsheng nodded and said, "Alright, I can spend more time with your mother."

After speaking, Hai Changsheng paid no more attention to Jiang Yun and Hai Yixue, gazing affectionately at the beautiful woman, with no one else in his eyes.

"When my mother had an accident and sadly passed away, my father refused to accept her death. He was determined to bring her back to life, hoping she could live forever."

"He even triggered the Calamity of the Mountain-Sea World, sacrificing millions of lives!"

"He believed that by becoming The Demon of Mountains and Seas and obtaining something hidden in The Great Wilderness Realm, he could bring my mother back to life!"

Jiang Yun was stunned!

He always thought that Hai Changsheng triggered the Calamity of the Mountain-Sea World to become more powerful himself.

But little did he know, Hai Changsheng’s ultimate goal was simply to save his wife!

At that moment, Jiang Yun’s opinion of Hai Changsheng involuntarily changed.

He didn’t even know whether he should continue to resent Hai Changsheng, or admire him instead…

Hai Yixue’s voice continued, "I’m not sure if my father’s ideas will come true, but I’ve never agreed with his methods."

"But I couldn’t stop him, so our relationship over the years…"

As she spoke, Hai Yixue suddenly swayed and fell to the ground.

Hai Changsheng’s voice then rang out, "Jiang Yun, although I can’t help you get rid of Yue Qing or Dao God Temple, I can help you in another way."

Looking at the unconscious Hai Yixue, Jiang Yun calmly asked, "What way?"

"Whether it’s Mountain-Sea World or Mountain-Sea Desolate World, in the end, mountains and seas in our world have always been separate."

"I can merge the mountains and seas, creating a world of mountains and seas, just as its name ‘Mountain-Sea World’ suggests!"
