He was able to see Tang Ningxin, Wang Susu, Su Yao, An Li, Yu Xuanwei, even Ling Xiaoxiao, Princess Xi, Tang Xiaokong, Tang Yanfen, and others through that ball of light...
And these former acquaintances could see the entire sky obscured by Song Yan's face, and they all bowed in greeting.
Song Yan slightly spread his five fingers, watching this ball of light drift away, heading towards the vicinity of the Nirvana Star Core, and then began to orbit around it.
He carefully perceived, feeling that this chamber was incredibly mysterious. Inside, it seemed no larger than a single room, yet like a mustard seed hiding a Sumeru.
The cause of all this was the Little Celestial Dao Characters around the bronze walls of the chamber, as well as this Nirvana Star Core.
A star core from a world completely annihilated was used as the material for a cabin in a ship. Besides feeling awe, Song Yan could only feel awe, suddenly gaining a shocking sense of "a mayfly viewing the sky, a summer insect seeing four seasons."
There was trepidation, there was anxiety, there was fear, but also an eventual hint of anticipation and joy for the larger world.
In the world of Di Cunxin, he might indeed be an indisputable old demon, but in this new world, he... was merely a young man.
"Little fellow, stop gazing around, quickly return to the cabin; the Five Spirits Celestial Demon Palace is nearby. If you don't speed up and they spot us, it'll be another furious battle. By then, even if the aftermath affects us, you will turn to dust."
The voice of Envoy Ning reminded again, "There are some small gifts in the cabin, consider it an introduction to you two young friends."
Song Yan respectfully saluted and said, "Thank you, Envoy."
...
...
Song Yan returned to the cultivation cabin.
Hua Linglong followed him.
Hua Linglong came with Song Yan, and naturally depended on him.
And the "two young friends" mentioned by Envoy Ning did not include Hua Linglong.
On the table in the cabin, a bowl of soup was placed, somewhat resembling eight treasure porridge in color.
Song Yan gazed at the soup, a faint sheen of vigilance flickered in his eyes.
The "Remaining Life Dao Fruit" in the new realm, its role was more in "trial and error" and "true name" rather than lifespan.
As his wisdom activated, information surfaced.
[You consumed the "Nine Nether Blood Lotus Soup", and you felt it was seeking your heart demon, trying to lead it out and help you pass through, so your Mental Realm could be flawless, but... your Mental Realm was already flawless, so it had no effect; you felt like you had tasted a bowl of rather thick stewed eight treasure porridge]
Song Yan retracted his gaze, a trace of weirdness rose in his heart.
These "small gifts" truly were just small gifts.
Not a single pitfall, making him feel somewhat out of place.
He picked up that "Nine Nether Blood Lotus Soup", his peripheral vision glanced at Hua Linglong on the side.
He did not give this resource, useless to him, to Hua Linglong. Instead, he brought it to his mouth, cautiously tasted a little, then began to gulp it down, and subsequently sat crossed-legged in the center of the cultivation chamber.
Moments later, his brow suddenly furrowed, as if trapped in a nightmare, muttering deliriously.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!! Kill all you villains!"
"One wrong step, fallen to an Evil Demon! It's my fault, it's all my fault!"
"Why? Why could I not save this country at the last moment? Why?!"
Not far away, Hua Linglong fell into silence.
The depth of her understanding of Song Yan... was profound.
Thus, at this moment, a strange feeling filled her heart.
She silently glanced at that "small gift".
With her insight, she could naturally guess this small gift was one of those treasures that "help excavate heart demons, resolve heart demons, and increase Divine Soul purity," of the rarest kind. If she could consume this treasure, it could also enhance the harmony among her three corpses.
Yet, Song Yan's heart demon was actually "unable to kill the villains", "unable to save the country"??
Hua Linglong was inwardly stirred, whispering to herself: 'Could it be I've always misunderstood him? Is he truly yearning for light deep down?'
While she was pondering, Song Yan suddenly opened his eyes, tears streaming down, erupting into a furious howl.
"With my sword, smite all Evil Demons!"
Hua Linglong:...
She silently lowered her head, murmuring to herself: 'This Brother Song is indeed... interesting.'
...
...
Whether someone was good or not, Song Yan truly couldn't discern.
He no longer had the confidence to believe anyone was good, nor the courage to stop guarding against others.
Hence, he could only assume everyone was bad.
Deductively, the evil of the Celestial Marvel Sword Palace evidently wasn't on the surface.
Because whether it's the elderly Ning Daozhen, or the predecessor Gu Mohan, sitting cross-legged in the Sea of Suffering, trying to purify a Vast Sea obsession, or this "Nine Nether Blood Lotus Soup" without any added "seasoning", it all suggested the Celestial Marvel Sword Palace didn't appear bad.
Thus, to survive in such a force, he began his brief performance.
The "Nine Nether Blood Lotus Soup" being a gift from the Envoy, its effect must have been strong, so his display couldn't have been faked.
At least, if Envoy Ning saw, he'd have a preliminary understanding of Song Yan's character.
He was merely a forced by circumstances, one who mistakenly fell into an Evil Demon, earnestly aspiring to good, and yearning for light.
Initially, Song Yan believed he was truly like that.
But as time progressed, he could no longer distinguish.
...
...
After a long while, Song Yan reopened his eyes, glancing at the tears on his cheeks, wiping them away with his hand, and then looking aside, only to see Hua Linglong with her eyes closed in meditation, seemingly unaware of the outside world.
Just as he was about to stand up, Hua Linglong abruptly opened her eyes, stood up, and cupped her hands, saying, "Brother Song was just shouting and crying, but now your eyes are much clearer, congratulations."
Song Yan said, "I never thought this soup would have such an effect, it's just..."
Hua Linglong cooperatively played along, asking, "It's just what?"
