Chapter 765: Chapter 409: Awakening (Part 2)



Looking at Little Ah You, Xu Hui felt a torrent of emotions.


"Master, I want to awaken Master Bao Ling now."


She then looked at Li Qian and sought his opinion.


"Mm."


Li Qian nodded.


He was also somewhat looking forward to the awakening of Bao Ling Saint Mother.


"Sister Xu Hui, can you awaken my mother?"


Little Ah You, upon hearing this, was very attentive.


"Little Ah You, I’m not sure if it will work, but I have to try first."


Xu Hui said.


After all, these were just memories from a past life, and whether she could truly awaken Master Bao Ling remained to be seen.


"Then please hurry and wake her up, I really want to talk to my mother..."


Little Ah You was very excited.


Xu Hui nodded, then took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and touched her fingers to her forehead. Her body trembled slightly, letting out a groan, and faint traces of blood appeared from her seven orifices.


Li Qian could sense Xu Hui forcibly invoking the True Spirit, harming the Divine Soul....


His brows furrowed slightly; would forcefully awakening Bao Ling Saint Mother’s consciousness cause Xu Hui to suffer backlash?


But he could see Xu Hui’s determination and desire to awaken Bao Ling Saint Mother, so he did not stop her.


After a while, a strange power suddenly erupted from Xu Hui’s mind, projecting into the void, transforming into a mysterious figure.


It was a figure in hemp garments, with delicate features and an aura of compassion.


"Father..."


Little Ah You was ecstatic when she saw this hemp garment-clad figure.


The figure seemed to hear Little Ah You’s voice, turned to glance at her, revealing a doting smile, and then turned back toward the true body of Bao Ling Saint Mother in the Stone Coffin, gently touching her forehead with his fingers.


Whoosh!


Like an illusion amidst a water moon, the figure in hemp clothing shattered.


"Father...."


Seeing her father’s phantom shatter and disappear, Little Ah You burst into tears, desperately trying to rush forward... but Li Qian gently held her back to prevent her from disturbing Xu Hui’s efforts to awaken Bao Ling Saint Mother. Comfortingly, he said, "Your father is awakening your mother, he will certainly return in the future."


"Really?"


Little Ah You, with tears in her eyes, sniffled and spoke.


"Of course, remember last time, when your mother awoke, she said your father would return."


Li Qian said.


"Yes, I remember...."


Little Ah You nodded, wiping away her tears.


At this moment, Li Qian sensed Bao Ling Saint Mother’s body tremble slightly, as strange black energy was expelled.


It was the origin power of the Outer God.


Li Qian’s heart stirred, and he promptly used the domain formed by the Immortal Device Chen Bell to capture and collect this Outer God Origin.


His attention remained on Bao Ling Saint Mother, able to clearly perceive the slow resurgence of power within her.


Yet, when this power reached a certain level, it seemed to be interrupted.


A level roughly equivalent to First Grade True Immortal.


"What’s going on?"


Li Qian was surprised.


He thought Bao Ling Saint Mother would, upon awakening, at least regain a certain level of strength, if not her peak.


But she only recovered to the level of a First Grade True Immortal.


This was somewhat strange.


At this moment, Bao Ling Saint Mother slowly opened her eyes within the Stone Coffin.


"Mother...."


Little Ah You shouted excitedly.


"Ah You... is that you?"


Bao Ling Saint Mother looked vacantly at Little Ah You, her initially unfocused pupils gradually concentrating, with divine light rapidly recovering, and her originally pallid, stiff face softening, revealing a smile.


"It’s me, mother... woowoo, you finally woke up."


Little Ah You rushed forward, hugging Bao Ling Saint Mother.


"Good child.... You’ve suffered for so many years."


Bao Ling Saint Mother gently held Little Ah You, her words filled with affection and apology.


She could sense something off in her daughter’s state.


"Mother, when will father return? I just saw him..."


Little Ah You hurriedly asked.


"He.....he will certainly return."


Bao Ling Saint Mother hesitated for a moment, then spoke with determination.


The mother and daughter talked for quite a while before Bao Ling Saint Mother looked toward Xu Hui.


"Are you Xing Ling?"


Bao Ling Saint Mother asked softly to Xu Hui.


Though her appearance was different, the moment she awoke, she sensed a familiar aura from Xu Hui.


"Master Bao Ling, I am the reincarnation of Xing Ling...and this is my master in this life."


Xu Hui quickly replied.


Bao Ling Saint Mother nodded and then scrutinized Li Qian closely.


"Mother, I was so bored in the Suspended Cave; it was Uncle Qian Yuan who brought me out...."


Xu Hui interjected.


But Bao Ling Saint Mother stared intently at Li Qian, her expression one of disbelief, then confusion and hesitation, as her face showed a complex range of emotions.


"Why does the Saint Mother look at me like that?"


Li Qian couldn’t help but ask.


Though he had controlled the Ghost Immortal formed from Bao Ling Saint Mother before, he never had any other designs because she was Little Ah You’s mother.


"I almost thought I saw an old acquaintance."


Bao Ling Saint Mother sighed.


Although the resemblance was striking, no, it was identical, the aura was off.


Completely off.


Under normal circumstances, the same person could not have a different aura.


Even if reincarnated, such discrepancies in aura wouldn’t occur.


So, Li Qian definitely wasn’t that person.


He just looked similar.


In this world, though there might not be identical leaves, it’s still common for two people to share similar appearances.


"Oh, Saint Mother, who do I resemble?"


Li Qian asked curiously.


When he transmigrated here, the Saint Mother was still lying in the Divine Witch Forbidden Land.


Moreover, the Saint Mother was once an Immortal King level existence before the downfall of the Immortal Realm.


"Best not to mention it."


Bao Ling Saint Mother shook her head.


Since Bao Ling Saint Mother chose not to say, Li Qian naturally refrained from pressing the matter.


However, judging from Bao Ling Saint Mother’s reaction, the so-called old acquaintance likely wasn’t ordinary.


Otherwise, Bao Ling Saint Mother wouldn’t have reacted as she did.


Li Qian settled Bao Ling Saint Mother in a Cultivation Cave Mansion and then left with Xu Hui, not wanting to disturb the mother-daughter reunion.


"Xu Hui, you heard the Saint Mother say I resemble someone, do you recall anyone like that?"


Li Qian looked at Xu Hui and immediately asked.


Xu Hui, as a disciple of West Pole Buddha Immortal Emperor, must have been well-acquainted with many powerful figures of the time.


"Master, I have no memory of such a person in my past life...."


Xu Hui shook her head.


Li Qian suspected that Xu Hui had not reached such heights, or that the person might have perished before she became involved with the West Pole Buddha Immortal Emperor....


But judging from Bao Ling Saint Mother’s reaction, it likely wasn’t that simple.


Of course, he was too lazy to agonize over it as it had no direct bearing on him.


After all, he was a perfectly legitimate transmigrator and reborn individual...


If he were a reincarnation, Bao Ling Saint Mother would be able to sense the difference in Divine Soul aura.


Several days later.


Bao Ling Saint Mother suddenly came to find Li Qian.


"Daoist Li, are you aware of the situation outside?"


Bao Ling Saint Mother got straight to the point.


"Is the Saint Mother referring to the West Pole Xuan Continent, or beyond Xuanzhou?"


Li Qian asked.


"Naturally beyond Xuanzhou...."


Bao Ling Saint Mother said.


She could sense Li Qian’s aura was that of a True Immortal, and even Xing Ling had become immortal.... Normally, it should be impossible to become immortal in the current West Pole Xuan Continent.


Though her power hadn’t fully recovered, she still possessed First Grade True Immortal strength.... She didn’t perceive the Immortal Realm’s origin, signifying the path to immortality had been severed.


Yet, both Li Qian and Xing Ling were True Immortals.


There was only one possibility: Li Qian might have ventured beyond the West Pole Xuan Continent.


"I have indeed been to the Nan Zhanbu Continent beyond Xuanzhou...."


Li Qian briefly recounted his experiences, including the situation with the Heavenly Court and information about the Divine Realm.


Bao Ling Saint Mother seemed unfazed by these revelations, her reaction calm, "Daoist Li, thank you for taking care of Ah You all these years..."


"I really like Ah You."


Li Qian replied.


"Do you know who I said you resemble?" Bao Ling Saint Mother suddenly asked.


"Um....If the Saint Mother finds it inconvenient, there’s no need to reveal it."


Li Qian said.


However, he was deeply curious about who that person might be?
