Volume 14, Chapter 930 – Zombie Cheng Hongling and Life Soul Cheng Hongling

Qi Huang and Cheng Hongling were overjoyed, immediately turning their attention to the corpse.

The body slowly opened its eyes, but instead of the usual black-and-white pupils, there was an eerie, blood-red resentment emanating from them. It looked like the mouth of hell, a sight that sent chills down the spine.

Qi Huang quickly floated over to examine it closely, knowing full well that there could be no margin for error.

Cheng Hongling, however, had a deeply conflicted look in her eyes. She wasn’t sure how to face this reanimated corpse. It was clearly more than just a doppelgänger.

The corpse’s eyeballs began to move. A look of confusion first appeared on her delicate face, but it soon faded.

“You…”

Qi Huang stood beside her, hesitating, unsure whether or not she should speak, or when to do so.

“What ‘you’? Hurry up and help your husband up!”

To her surprise, the reanimated corpse—that is, Zombie Cheng Hongling—commanded in an overbearing tone.

“Ah? Oh!”

Qi Huang was stunned for a moment before obediently stepping forward to assist. At this point, she had no time to argue about who was the top or bottom in their relationship.

Zombie Cheng Hongling stood up with satisfaction, though she still issued a forceful reminder: “You need to be more perceptive in the future. As a wife, you should know your responsibilities.”

“Yes, yes, yes…”

Qi Huang nodded repeatedly, not daring to slack off.

But nearby, Life Soul Cheng Hongling wasn’t having it. Her face darkened as she said coldly, “She’s my wife. You’re just a mere body. What right do you have to boss her around?”

“Heh…”

Zombie Cheng Hongling let out a mocking laugh. “You’re the one who doesn’t have the right. You’re just a life soul barely surviving off the Yin energy radiating from me. Isn’t that right?”

“You…!”

Life Soul Cheng Hongling was fuming. In a moment of desperation, she shouted to Qi Huang, “Say something, will you?!”

“Me?”

Qi Huang pointed at herself, then gave an awkward smile. “You’re arguing with yourself. What am I supposed to say?”

“Hmph… Absolutely pathetic. Claiming to be the husband, yet needing your wife to step in during an argument? I’m embarrassed for you.”

Zombie Cheng Hongling sneered disdainfully.

“You…”

Life Soul Cheng Hongling was rendered speechless, trembling with fury.

“Wife, don’t be angry. It’s all you, what’s the point in getting upset?”

Qi Huang quickly stepped in to comfort her.

“What do you mean ‘all me’? She is her, and I am me. You have to choose one.”

Life Soul Cheng Hongling snapped in frustration.

“Ah?”

Qi Huang was utterly dumbfounded. All she could do was force a smile. She finally understood how their friends and family had felt when dealing with her and Cheng Hongling in the past. Two personalities in one person… It was practically the textbook case of severe dissociative identity disorder.

“Don’t mind her, Wife. Let’s focus on the main matter.”

Zombie Cheng Hongling smoothly changed the topic. “Right now, I’ve already fused thirty fragments of the Demon Ancestor’s heart into my body. I can sense the location of the last two. Once I gather them all, I can use the blood-tear mark on your face to become the next Lu Yao. By then, overturning the heavens will be a piece of cake.”

“Really? Where are the last two fragments?”

Qi Huang immediately asked.

Life Soul Cheng Hongling also leaned in to listen attentively. She wasn’t the type to stay mad for long and knew when to let things go.

“They’re in a place very far from here. Not in this world, not in our home cultivation realm, and not even in the Immortal Realm.”

Zombie Cheng Hongling explained.

“That’s a problem then. How are we supposed to get there?”

Qi Huang furrowed her brow.

“There are countless worlds under the Five Elements Heavenly Dao: high, medium, and low-tier. They’re all constantly shifting, which means we can’t pinpoint and break open the barrier of a specific space. Nor can we reverse-engineer our way through a lower-tier space. So, basically, it’s impossible to reach a designated plane.”

Life Soul Cheng Hongling interjected with her analysis.

Upon hearing this, Qi Huang and Zombie Cheng Hongling both fell into deep thought.

“We can’t get there… but someone can.”

Qi Huang suddenly spoke up. As soon as she said it, both of her “wives” turned to look at her.

Qi Huang felt a strange satisfaction under their gaze. After clearing her throat, she continued, “The Celestials can. They can travel to any world.”

Life Soul Cheng Hongling thought for a moment. “You mean to use their means to reach the worlds where the last two fragments are located?”

“Exactly. It wouldn’t be the first time we’ve had someone lead the way.”

Qi Huang smiled confidently.

“The problem is, we don’t yet have the power to control the Celestials.”

Zombie Cheng Hongling reminded her.

“We don’t have it now, but that doesn’t mean we won’t in the future. The Immortal Realm’s been purged. No one can threaten us for the time being. We can focus entirely on increasing our strength.”

Qi Huang replied without the slightest anxiety.

“That’s the only path forward, then. Let’s hope the Celestials don’t find us first.”

Zombie Cheng Hongling nodded after some consideration.

And with that, the “married trio” headed home.

To avoid frightening her parents, Zombie Cheng Hongling concealed her fiendish appearance. Thanks to her immense power, she now only looked a little paler than before.

Meanwhile, Life Soul Cheng Hongling resided inside the zombie body. Since she was already dead, she couldn’t reunite with her physical form, but using it as a temporary “vessel” was acceptable.

Just as Qi Huang had anticipated, with the Immortal Realm destroyed and her relocating their old home to a lower-tier world, the Celestial Star Chart couldn’t monitor them. For the next thirty years, she and her relatives and friends lived in peace, undoubtedly the most tranquil time of her entire life.

Qi Huang’s power reached the level of Three Flowers Convergence ¹ usually means a major breakthrough in cultivation term . Her divine sense had advanced to the peak of the Heavenly Immortal Realm, and her assimilation powers had grown just as much.

She specifically returned to the Honghua Sect, chose a commonly used cultivation chamber, and prepared to break through. This was a breakthrough into the Celestial Realm, a matter of great significance that could not be treated lightly.

Zombie Cheng Hongling and Life Soul Cheng Hongling watched over her carefully, while the maid An Xuan stood guard outside.

Qi Huang absorbed the millions of ghost tomatoes she had collected in one go. The final mental shackle shattered completely. Her divine sense ascended to a whole new level. It felt as though she’d awoken from a boundless dream, like a frog leaping out of the well. Her mental clarity multiplied beyond measure.

Qi Huang knew she had succeeded. Her divine sense left her body, now not only hundreds or thousands of times faster, but its coverage was vast as well. She could effortlessly scan entire star systems and influence their operations with just a thought. She truly resembled the omnipotent immortals of legend.

But that wasn’t even the most impressive part. After stepping into the Celestial Realm, her divine sense became incredibly refined. With enough concentration, she could detect even the tiniest water spiritual particles in space. That meant that within her sensing range, all water spiritual energy could be harnessed directly—no need to draw it into her body like ordinary immortals or cultivators.

At this moment, Qi Huang was flawless. Her only remaining concern was aging, but she believed that with enough power, she could find the right spiritual medicines to remedy such a small imperfection.

“Well?”

Life Soul Cheng Hongling asked eagerly as her beloved opened her eyes.

“Success.”

Qi Huang smiled confidently and sighed. “Now I finally understand why even the lowest Heavenly Slave can cleanse an entire world. The difference between an immortal and a celestial is even greater than that between a mortal and an immortal.”

“That’s amazing. At the very least, we now have the bare minimum means to defend ourselves against the Heavenly Court.”

Zombie Cheng Hongling showed a hint of excitement.

“Yeah. From now on, it’ll take more than just a single Heavenly Slave to kill us.”

Qi Huang nodded repeatedly.

“It’s still not enough. The Heavenly Court won’t send just one Heavenly Slave. We have to keep pushing.”

Life Soul Cheng Hongling remained rational.

“Don’t worry, Wife. As my power grows, I’ll be able to harvest ghost tomatoes even faster. Resources won’t slow me down.”

Qi Huang reassured her.

“Also, it’s about time we start thinking about how to make contact with the Celestials. If we want them to lead the way, we have to at least find them first.”

Life Soul Cheng Hongling added.
