Mu Qingqing's heart trembled, and a look of shock flashed in her eyes. "What do you mean?!"
At that moment, Mu Qingqing felt that Xuan Qi in front of her was talking nonsense. How could she possibly hinder Xin Ci from breaking through to the Eternal Realm?
However, Xuan Qi quickly saw through her thoughts and sneered, "You think I'm talking nonsense, right? Mu Qingqing, although we are both transmigrators, your situation is different from mine. Don't forget that your soul belongs to the same origin as Xin Ci."
"To put it more directly, you are merely a fragment of Xin Ci's soul! And the most important condition for stepping onto the Eternal Great Dao is soul uniqueness and a complete divine soul!"
"Speaking of which, don't you understand yet?"
Xuan Qi's shocking words fell into Mu Qingqing's ears like a bolt from the blue.
She felt as if she had been struck by lightning, her expression changed drastically, and her mind was in turmoil.
Eternal!
Soul fragment...!
Uniqueness...!
Mu Qingqing suddenly reacted, her mind surged with excitement, and her emotions began to fluctuate violently.
This means that when Xin Ci breaks through to the Eternal Realm, one of them, either herself or Xin Ci, must disappear.
Only in this way can the divine soul be unique, which is the prerequisite for proving the Dao to become Eternal.
"Mu Qingqing, your existence has destined that Xin Ci cannot break through to the Eternal Realm!"
"Of course, you can also choose to devour Xin Ci's soul and achieve eternity yourself."
"At that time, you can become an Eternal True God, the master of this plane, and you can stop my cleansing plan, and eliminating the Underworld God Clan will be a piece of cake."
"However, can you do it?"
Xuan Qi's mockery became even more rampant, his face full of disdain, and he appeared completely confident, as if he was certain that Mu Qingqing would never choose to devour Xin Ci's soul.
As a matter of fact, it was as Xuan Qi had expected. Mu Qingqing was speechless for a moment. She could only clench her fists, her body trembling slightly, her heart filled with an indescribable mix of emotions.
To achieve eternity, one of them, either her or Xin Ci, had to be sacrificed.
But if she gave up on stepping into eternity, almost no one in the Eternal Plane could defeat Xuan Qi and the King of Underworld Gods.
Only the Dragon Ancestor in the Beast God Valley, with its protection, could escape this calamity. All other regions would be completely under the rule of the Underworld Gods.
For a moment, Mu Qingqing was in a dilemma.
Xuan Qi, however, continued, "Your concerns are meaningless because the decision is made by Xin Ci, not by you."
Mu Qingqing's beautiful eyes widened, and her delicate face instantly darkened.
She understood what Xuan Qi meant.
Xin Ci must currently be undergoing the trial of the Eternal Divine Hall, and whether he could achieve eternity was determined by him.
At the same time, in the central hall of the Eternal Divine Hall.
Xin Ci stood up from the ground, holding his forehead with his right hand, his brows furrowed.
He vaguely remembered that he had lost control while absorbing the Dragon Yuan Pearl and had fallen into a coma.
But when he woke up, he was not in the cave created for him by the Dragon Ancestor, but in a magnificent and imposing divine hall.
Xin Ci was a little confused, unsure of what had happened.
He was about to send a telepathic message to Mu Qingqing in his consciousness space to ask her what had happened.
But he couldn't sense Mu Qingqing's presence.
"What's going on?!"
Xin Ci's expression instantly became distraught. He hurriedly used his soul power to search for any trace of Mu Qingqing, shouting anxiously, "Qingqing! Qingqing!"
"Where are you?!"
But no matter how he searched, he couldn't find any trace of Mu Qingqing.
The soul link that had connected him and Mu Qingqing for so long seemed to have been severed at this moment.
At this moment, Xin Ci's face turned pale, and he began to panic.
For him, Mu Qingqing was an important person he could never lose.
Mu Qingqing's sudden disappearance made Xin Ci extremely worried and nervous.
Suddenly, a majestic and deep voice came from the throne on the high platform of the divine hall, "Are you my inheritor?"
Inheritor?
Xin Ci didn't react for a moment.
The figure on the throne seemed displeased, slowly opened its deep eyes, and said with a solemn expression, "I am the Great Emperor of Eternity, Yong Ye!"
Great Emperor of Eternity!
Upon hearing this name, Xin Ci's pupils contracted, and his heart was shaken. Could it be that he had already entered the Eternal Divine Hall?
The mysterious and majestic figure on the throne, coupled with his sudden presence in this enigmatic divine hall.
Xin Ci quickly realized what was happening. It was estimated that during his coma, Mu Qingqing had borrowed his body to obtain the Eternal Dao Seal and successfully opened the Eternal Divine Hall.
After roughly assessing the situation, Xin Ci did not immediately ask the Great Emperor of Eternity for the Eternal Ink Square needed to repair the seal of the Twilight Land. Instead, he asked him about Mu Qingqing's whereabouts.
"Senior Great Emperor of Eternity, I would like to know where the woman who entered the Eternal Divine Hall with me is now?"
The Great Emperor of Eternity frowned slightly, seeming displeased with Xin Ci's urgent inquiry. He snorted, "You don't need to worry about that little girl's affairs. As my inheritor, you only need to accept my inheritance!"
"Senior Great Emperor of Eternity, more than your inheritance, I care more about Mu Qingqing's safety!"
Xin Ci did not flinch because of the Great Emperor of Eternity's reprimand. Instead, he looked at him squarely and resolutely, "However, a little girl from outside the Eternal Plane makes you so concerned."
The Great Emperor of Eternity's expression sank, but considering that this brat was his only inheritor, he couldn't be bothered to argue with him. He continued, "That little girl is very safe, you don't need to worry. You just need to accept my inheritance."
"Is Mu Qingqing really okay?"
"Yes, can I lie to you?"
"By the way, what's wrong with you, kid? You have a great opportunity to break through to eternity right in front of you, and you don't care about it, but instead, you're worried about that little girl's safety."
"Don't you look down on my inheritance?"
The Great Emperor of Eternity's voice suddenly turned cold, and a powerful pressure filled the divine hall.
In the face of this intense aura, even Xin Ci, who had broken through to the Three-Star Great Emperor realm, was as weak as an ant.
Xin Ci forced himself to stand, gritted his teeth, and said, "Junior does not mean that."
Only then did the Great Emperor of Eternity release his pressure, cast a cold glance at him, and said, "Your purpose in coming to the Eternal Divine Hall is for this, isn't it?"
As he spoke, he raised his finger, and a dazzling brilliance emerged from the tip of the Great Emperor of Eternity's finger.
This light gradually dissipated, and finally, a pitch-black cube, only the size of a fist, appeared before Xin Ci's eyes.
This pitch-black cube was smooth on the surface, with no inscriptions, but it exuded a mysterious, vast, and powerful force.
The supreme Dao rhyme contained within it far surpassed the level of a Holy Dao-level Sacred Artifact and could be considered a divine artifact.
This was probably the Eternal Ink Square!
This divine object before him was also Xin Ci's goal for entering the Eternal Divine Hall.
He was about to reach out and touch the Eternal Ink Square in front of him, but the pitch-black cube was taken back by the Great Emperor of Eternity.
