Chapter 1762: Chapter 1762: If, In Case, Maybe

When the momentum was nearing exhaustion, a massive pulling force came again, forcibly dragging Tang Wulin to a halt in mid-air.

A God King is just a God King, no matter how powerful a half-step God King may be, it’s still not a God King.

"The taste of madness, is it? Let me drain your strength, leaving only your madness." The deep crimson God King’s eyes gradually clouded with a layer of madness. She was extremely annoyed by the entanglement, and the unease in her heart was becoming even more intense; she could not wait any longer. She had to resolve this battle swiftly at any cost.

Vast Dragon Power erupted, crazily distorting around Tang Wulin. Although it was still being peeled away bit by bit, the extraction speed was very slow.

"Tang Wulin, you really owe me. In the next life, if you dare not to like me, I’ll fight you to the bitter end." At this moment, a sharp voice rang out.

In the distance, the Golden Eye Black Dragon King Battleship, which had been thrown away earlier, had returned at some point.

The enormous dragon’s mouth slowly opened, and within it, two people stood.

Compared to its massive body, the two people were almost negligible. Yet, there they stood.

Wasn’t it Ling Zichen who was roaring in rage? She had already removed the mask from her face, revealing a beautiful visage, only her face was ashen, devoid of any color, not akin to a living person...

Beside her, Yi Zichen silently accompanied her. The two stood side by side.

"If he doesn’t die, there really is no next life." Yi Zichen spoke the truth as he stood next to Ling Zichen.

Ling Zichen glared at him coldly, but when she saw the loneliness in his eyes, she didn’t know why her heart suddenly softened.

"You’re truly a stubborn guy." Ling Zichen said with a bad attitude.

Yi Zichen laughed, "Isn’t that just like you? Who is more stubborn than you? Even if we were both stubborn for ten thousand years, you would still outlast me by several years."

"Get lost!" Ling Zichen kicked him in annoyance, an unstable aura beginning to oscillate from her body.

"Let me accompany you on this final journey. If, and I’m just saying if, in the next life without him, could you possibly make a different choice?" Yi Zichen seemed to muster all his courage to say this.

Ling Zichen’s body stiffened for a moment but she did not look at him again, "If a possibility, an if, really arises, then you’d better be more handsome. I like handsome ones."

Yi Zichen smiled, a smile that seemed to have been building up for millennia, finally breaking through at this moment. That intense joy from the heart washed away everything else. To him, everything else was unimportant at this moment. She finally gave him a glimmer of hope. Even if it were if, or could possibly be...

To be a standby like this, isn’t my level one of a kind? But I am willing!

"Come on!" Ling Zichen suddenly grabbed Yi Zichen’s hand.

Even though Yi Zichen knew what she was about to do, his heart skipped a beat at that instant. In his heart, only two words echoed: It’s worth it!

As for whether it really was worth it, only he knew.

The crisp, rhythmical clang echoed on their bodies, and subsequently, their bodies began to undergo a transformation. Dots of light emerged on them. They truly were dots of light, red ones. Each light dot was the size of a soybean. And these light dots continued to multiply accompanying the clangs.

"You bastard, what did you do? Why is this happening?" Ling Zichen suddenly cursed angrily. She realized that with the appearance of the clangs, her body was moving closer to Yi Zichen’s, both of their bodies merging with each other.

Yi Zichen laughed, "Back then, you were responsible for energy development, and I was in charge of the final combination form variation. Your request was to become the strongest bullet. A true Godkilling Bullet. Combining the strongest Single Positive Cycle Source Core we accumulated, to become the ultimate weapon. Isn’t this combining? How can you combine without getting close together?"

At this moment, both of their clothes had shattered, but it wasn’t bodies that were visible, rather extremely complex mechanical structures and those flashing with eerie glow, red dots.

Once the combination starts, it’s irreversible, so it couldn’t be tested.

"I knew you’re no good!" Ling Zichen said angrily.

Yi Zichen laughed, "Yes! Since it’s come to this, let me be a bit reckless." Saying that, his arm, which had completely turned mechanical, opened, courageously embracing the one he had yearned for ten thousand years. At this moment, the aging on his face vanished, turning him back to his youthful self, as if he was the boy who could only control sand.

"Zichen, I love you!" He softly uttered these five words. Only she could hear them. All his energy erupted at once, silently merging into her body. He didn’t even give her time to retort, or to curse in anger.

"You..." Ling Zichen was about to erupt, but she felt his life force fading away silently, even his divine consciousness vanished. In that instant, he chose to leave completely because he was afraid, afraid to hear her rejection and angry roar. He wanted only to leave in the most beautiful moment in his memory.

Nine thousand years ago, when they were reaching the end of their lives. Ling Zichen decided to transform herself into a Modified Human. With the highest technology of the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy, and her own cultivation, she was confident she could live longer in this state.

She had also asked the Shrek Academy and Tang Sect masters of that era if anyone was willing to join her in this transformation. Most refused. They preferred death over becoming mechanical for it was irreversible.

But Ling Zichen still made this insane choice. She wanted to protect the Tang Sect and Shrek. Moreover, deep in her subconscious, she always believed he wasn’t dead.

And the only one who successfully transformed with her was Yi Zichen. The once naive boy, one of Shrek Seven Monsters at that time, even her student then, decided to follow her unwaveringly until today.

This is why they could live for ten thousand years, and only they in the entire academy succeeded.

Ling Zichen sealed all related data because, after the real experience, she realized how painful it was, the hardship it entailed. In fact, there were several others who transformed with them initially, but they went mad from the pain, some to the point of insane slaughter. Ling Zichen personally led strong individuals to destroy them.

Ultimately, only she and Yi Zichen completed the transformation safely. Ling Zichen’s obsession with Tang Wulin allowed her to persist. It was later she understood Yi Zichen persisted for an obsession too, and his obsession was her.

Sensing the disappearance of his life force, and the crazed growth of her own energy, before her eyes she seemed to see the satisfaction and relief on his face after uttering those five words, even the wonderfully timid expression. Ling Zichen’s eyes blurred.

You’re so foolish! Truly foolish! But, that guy had long left an imprint in my heart, even though I’ve ceased to be purely human, yet I still can’t forget him.

"Ah—" Ling Zichen roared, a dazzling light suddenly erupted from her body, her entire body began to undergo dramatic changes, metal spikes quickly protruded from within her body, entering the Golden Eye Black Dragon King Battleship’s mouth, causing the entire battleship to tremble violently, directing all its energy towards this direction.
