Having left the Heavenly Demon Divine Pond and looking up from below, it remained undisturbed, like a pool of dead water.
But at this moment, in midair, there was no wind, no clouds, only the sound of the Unrivaled Bell echoing, breaking the dead silence similar to that of the Heavenly Demon Divine Pond.
Wang Mu gazed down at the Heavenly Demon Divine Pond below, his face expressionless, his eyes devoid of any fluctuations, as if he had not heard the sound of the Unrivaled Bell.
Several seconds passed, still without any movement.
Wang Mu slightly lifted his head, looking at Mu Hongyuan.
Yet, in his mind, he visualized the image of Miss You.
This journey was, indeed, perilous.
If it were not for the Primordial Mystic Sea Control Technique, without that tiny droplet, he might not have lasted long and could have truly perished in the Heavenly Demon Divine Pond. Whether Mu Hongyuan would have intervened to spare his life, Wang Mu was not too sure; Mu Hongyuan's thoughts were ever-changing and extremely difficult to fathom.
The game's second most difficult character to navigate was not to be toyed with.
The bell's ringing continued ceaselessly.
At this moment, the sound of the Unrivaled Bell was not only resounding here.
The entire Fengyue Sect could hear this unique sound.
As the Green Frost Sword is to the Sword Sect.
To the Fengyue Sect, the Unrivaled Bell was widely known and universally understood.
It wasn't necessary to see it in person.
Merely by hearing that bell sound, one could know it was their Supreme Master's Lifebound Magical Treasure, the symbol of the Fengyue Sect.
If the sword light of the Green Frost Sword could illuminate the entire Gu Yun Mountain, bright as a rainbow.
Then the sound of the Unrivaled Bell could resound throughout Fengyue Valley, the sound travelling thousands of miles.
At this moment, many disciples of the Fengyue Sect were taken aback.
Especially the elders.
In the past, whenever the bell sounded, it signaled the Supreme Master's appearance. The ringing of the bell was like the ebb and flow of a tide, allowing many disciples to cleanse their minds through its sound, grasp the concealed power within, and experience the profound meaning carried by millennia of experience conveyed in its chimes.
To break demonic barriers, dispel desires, sever connections…
「Fengyue House.」
Two maids stood guard at the door, looking at Senior Sister Gu, who had been silent for several days within the room. Suddenly, they both started.
"It's the sound of the Unrivaled Bell!"
The two exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with surprise.
The Unrivaled Bell, imbued with Yin Yang transformations, truly lived up to its name. In the hearts of countless disciples, it was a truly unparalleled divine artifact, a Divine Grade supreme treasure. Even throughout the entire Nine Provinces, it was considered a magic treasure possessing some of the most top-tier power.
Countless cultivators had visited the Fengyue Sect, all hoping for the bell to sound, to break their own Heart Demons, thus allowing their Primordial Spirits to transcend, emerging from their shells to enter the state of God Transformation and Void Return.
In terms of combat power, the Unrivaled Bell might not match the Green Frost Sword. But in terms of its effects, especially in the hearts of the Sect's disciples, the Unrivaled Bell—capable of both offense and defense, and possessing numerous other marvels—was an irreplaceable divine artifact.
It was just that... after that one battle all those years ago...
"When did the Venerable Lord's Unrivaled Bell get repaired?"
The two maids looked at each other, then turned to look at Senior Sister Gu inside the room, their expressions turning from worry to joy. "The Unrivaled Bell is fixed, does it mean... Senior Sister doesn't have to be confined anymore?"
"The Unrivaled Bell can break the demonic affliction in Senior Sister's mind..."
The two, excited, looked towards the inside of the room.
Their understanding was simple; they only thought that their Senior Sister Gu had some demonic affliction, which is why the Venerable Lord sealed her cultivation and confined her here.
"It's the sound of the Unrivaled Bell!"
In the main hall of Fengyue Valley, four elders were reviewing the disciples from the recent Divine Pond affinity-seeking event.
Upon hearing this sound, they all froze.
First puzzled, then shocked, and finally, their expressions turned to delight.
"When did the Venerable Lord's Unrivaled Bell get fixed?"
"How many years has it been?"
"To think the Green Frost Sword was repaired... and the Venerable Lord's Unrivaled Bell too! The Venerable Lord and that Yan Sword Immortal truly are lifelong rivals!"
"What a coincidence... Who could have fixed the Venerable Lord's Unrivaled Bell?"
"Back then, the Venerable Lord personally went to the Tianji Sect. The Sect Master of Tianji Sect at the time took one look and decisively stated that this item could never be repaired."
"Those old codgers at Tianji Sect, I heard when Yan Sword Immortal went there, they also said the Green Frost Sword couldn't be fixed either..."
"By the way, who fixed the Green Frost Sword?"
The sound of the Unrivaled Bell brought surprise, exhilaration, and excitement to countless disciples of the Fengyue Sect...
「However, above the Heavenly Demon Divine Pond.」
The bell's chime gradually grew subdued.
The Unrivaled Bell descended towards Mu Hongyuan, like a solitary bird returning to its nest, and landed in her hand.
She merely gazed silently at the Unrivaled Bell. The hazy luminescence surrounding her made her expression indiscernible, yet one could sense a distinct lack of emotion, as if the supreme treasure's restoration had brought her no surprise.
In the calm midair, after the bell stopped ringing, it plunged back into dead silence, like the Heavenly Demon Divine Pond.
"Is the bell sound pleasant?" Mu Hongyuan slowly spoke.
"Pleasant," Wang Mu nodded.
The sound of the Unrivaled Bell was indeed pleasant.
"Is the sword cry of the Green Frost Sword more pleasant, or is this bell sound of the Unrivaled Bell more melodious?" Mu Hongyuan paused and then asked.
"..." Wang Mu.
"The sword cry and the bell sound are both unique, each one of a kind," Wang Mu shook his head, then added, "If judged solely by the senses, the bell sound of the Unrivaled Bell is naturally more melodious, it's just..."
At this, Wang Mu paused.
"Just what?"
"Just..." Wang Mu closed his eyes, "it's not as melodious as the bell sound from a thousand years ago."
A thousand years ago, the Unrivaled Bell was just a special bell.
A thousand years later, the Unrivaled Bell had been nurtured by Mu Hongyuan for countless years and become her Lifebound Magical Treasure; how could its sound not surpass that of a thousand years ago?
"The Unrivaled Bell from a thousand years ago..." Mu Hongyuan scoffed. "Only you have heard it. After a thousand years, its bell sound has become more melodious, but you have heard even more beautiful notes. Indeed, it is not as melodious as a thousand years ago to you."
