The image of the two embracing began to fade.

Now appearing were the Immortal Blade and Heavenly Demon In Black standing side by side, with a bright orb of light between them.

Though it was night, the light seemed to illuminate the entire world.

"This is the White Night Spirit Pearl."

"It's the reward for the first person who defeats the White Beast in each cycle."

No One was startled.

"Back then, the Immortal Blade and I defeated it together."

"The person who possesses the White Night Spirit Pearl will retain their memories for the next cycle of the world."

"We both want to leave the pearl for eachother."

"Every time the White Beast devours a world, consuming countless lives, it grows stronger."

"Only by defeating it in successive cycles can its growth be curtailed."

"After being defeated for the first time in a cycle, it will return every thousand years until it consumes that cycle entirely."

"In that battle, the White Beast swallowed the whole world. We killed it, but there was nothing left to protect."

"Friends, family, sects, everything was in its belly."

"He is the Immortal Blade, the most important person to the world... and to me. No one knows how much stronger the White Beast will be when it returns. By letting him keep his memories, he could become stronger and protect the world from the White Beast."

"But that bastard."

At that moment, the Immortal Blade picked up the spirit pearl.

He directly placed it into the body of the Heavenly Demon In Black.

"He wanted the one who kept their memories to be me."

The Immortal Blade's lips moved as if he were saying something.

His final words made no sound.

Or perhaps, the Heavenly Demon In Black did not want her disciples to hear them.

"By the second life, I had already established the first Society In Black early on.

I became the Heavenly Demon early on, ruling over the world.

To follow the righteous path is to follow the rules of countless others above the heavens. Even if you are at the top, they will suppress you with traditions, speaking of moral and virtues.

To follow the demonic path, all you need to lead is ruthlessness and absolute strength.

The best way to protect this world is for me to become the Heavenly Demon once again.

Throughout the long life in the second cycle, with a lifespan close to that of the heavens and earth.

Finally, I waited until the Immortal Blade was reincarnated."

"At that time, he took on the identity of a woman named Avery Snow.

Still the same as the previous life, a fool.

But he was my fool.

The one who never succumbed to tyranny.

The one who never let his loved ones suffer.

I secretly guided him in that life, helping him cultivate to reach the pinnacle.

Once again, openly and honorably, he reached the realm of the Immortal Blade."

"In this life, he does not know who I am.

But when we were friends, he spoke to me.

Sometimes he dreamed that there was a woman by his side, deeply in love with him.

Until now, he hasn't thought of any man.

But every time he looked at me, he felt...warmth."

"To be honest, I felt a slight blushed too.

Half joking, half serious, I just told him,

Focus on cultivating, reach the realm of the Immortal Blade, and he will find that woman again."

Images of the woman called Avery Snow appeared.

Upon reaching the realm of the Immortal Blade, heaven and earth were overturned.

The principles of the world shook.

Countless swords and blades in the world trembled, then soared straight into the sky, all pointing in one direction.

Every blade and sword under the heavens was bowing to an Immortal Blade.

A realm that even the Heavenly Demon could not achieve.

Only she could do it. In this life or the previous.

Images of the two facing the White Beast appeared again."This time, the confrontation with the White Beast didn't go smoothly."

The White Beast, with its sharp fangs, bit deep into the body of the Heavenly Demon.

The body had a gaping hole, as if all its organs had been lost.

In that battle, the Heavenly Demon perished.

The Immortal Blade couldn't hold back tears and rage, allowing the inner demon to take over.

She became the Demon God, known as the Demonblade.

Perished alongside the White Beast.

And that bastard..."

Images showed the Immortal Blade in a wretched state, holding a spirit pearl in hand.

She placed it in his mouth and kissed the Heavenly Demon.

Giving her the spirit pearl.

The Heavenly Demon's narration sounded like sobbing.

As she remembered the past, she couldn't hold back her emotions.

"Even without any memories of the past life."

"Once again, he wanted me to live."

In the last moments of Avery Snow, the Immortal Blade looked as if she had shed her worldly ties.

It seemed as though she never became the Demonblade.

Her long hair, disheveled after the battle, fell down as if to cover her face.

She placed the head of the Heavenly Demon on her lap. Letting her silently slip into eternal slumber.

"Only when I lost you did I realize that I loved you."

"Qiu Yu."

The Demonblade died right after those words.

Ensuring that the world would live on for another thousand years before the Cycle reappeared.

"The third life. I awoke.This Cycle is the most unique one.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth had dwindled to its utmost limit. The skills of humans are no longer what they once were.

I was born long after the Immortal Blade.

When I was only 8 years old and joined the sect, she had already become the Immortal Blade.

In this lifetime, few know of her.

They only hear that for all those still living, since birth they have known her as the unrivaled existence in this world.

By the time I once again became the Heavenly Demon, she remained just as solitary.

Since truly becoming the Immortal Blade, she has stood at the center of the City of Azure Flames, engulfed by those endless flames.

As if waiting for something."

The Heavenly Demon fell silent.

"I... have never spoken to her in this lifetime."

"I don't want someone to suffer another lifetime because of me. So I decided to stand in the darkness, silently protecting this world."

"Immortal Blade's world."

The mist vanished.

No One and Ye Yu were also silent.

They hadn't expected such a grand story.

Ting

【Faction Mission has been activated.】

【Help the Immortal Blade and the Heavenly Demon achieve a happy ending.】

This mission appeared for both Ye Yu and No One.

The two looked at each other.

Nodded in agreement.Many thoughts and calculations filled their minds.

But in truth, after hearing this story, they also wanted to help the Heavenly Demon and the Immortal Blade.

"Now, onto how you can defeat the Phantom of The Immortal Blade."

The mist started to change shape.

Finally, in front of the two people, appeared the silhouette of the Immortal Blade made of mist.

"No, it's not just the Phantom of The Immortal Blade."

"Disciples of the Heavenly Demon must, at the very least, defeat the Tomb of The Immortal Blade."

"The dungeons, as you people from afar call them, are actually fragments from previous Cycles.

The White Beast is a gluttonous monster, but like any monster, it doesn't eat tidily.

It devours heaven and earth, tears apart universes and galaxies, but still leaves remnants from previous Cycles.

Those remnants contain treasures from ancient times.

We locals cannot come into the fragments from previous Cycles; the world would reject us.

But you, the outsiders, can.

Therefore, I cannot help you, and honestly, I'm too lazy to do so.

If you want something, you must seize it yourself."

At this moment, Heavenly Demon In Black sat on the throne, resting her chin on her hand, looking at the two of them.

"This Tomb of The Immortal Blade is not even a fraction of the power of what the Immortal Blade once held. But the treasures acquired from it will greatly aid you."

"As disciples of the Heavenly Demon, you must absolutely not fail."

Both of them bowed.

"Understood!"
