In the Immortal Realm, there exists only one, the ultimate destination for countless cultivators from the Great Thousand World.
"What else do you want to know? As long as it’s not my personal business, I can tell you anything," Shan Ba Mei said.
"Who took the Spiritual Vein from Earth?" Jiang Chen asked.
"It was taken by several Xianmen working together. In the end, this matter was left unresolved," Shan Ba Mei replied.
"This matter cannot be so easily dismissed. For cultivators, finding a more suitable place for cultivation and abandoning their original location is understandable. However, taking away the Spiritual Vein is unacceptable. Did your Kunlun Celestial Mansion not take the Spiritual Vein?" Jiang Chen questioned.
"Uh, no, we didn’t." Although Jiang Chen's tone was calm, Shan Ba Mei felt a tightening in her heart and hurriedly responded.
"It’s best if you didn’t take it. If you had, it would have to be returned soon," Jiang Chen said lightly.
"The Spiritual Vein has already been taken; they won’t return it. You are no match for them," Shan Ba Mei stated.
"Whether or not I am their match, you will naturally find out in the future," Jiang Chen replied with a faint smile, his expression evoking a sense of deep understanding in others.
"Alright, I have understood most of the situation. As for your current state, lifting the seal is not a good thing for you. Here’s what we’ll do: when the door to the Mountain and Sea Secret Realm opens, I will come to help you lift the seal and take you to the Mountain and Sea Secret Realm. At that time, you will be able to see your husband and child," Jiang Chen said.
Jiang Chen could actually help Shan Ba Mei lift the seal right now, but since she had already died, reviving her with Jiang Chen's current cultivation level was not impossible; it would just be too costly and not worth the effort. Moreover, rescuing Shan Ba Mei now would only mean placing her in Quiet Villa—a sleeping corpse in Quiet Villa wouldn’t be ideal, even if that corpse belonged to a beautiful cultivator.
Seeing Jiang Chen's demeanor, Shan Ba Mei's eyes filled with suspicion; she did not trust him. It was understandable; after all, no one would dare gamble their freedom and hope on a stranger's words, even if that stranger seemed unfathomable.
"You have no choice but to trust me," Jiang Chen said.
"I hope you can keep your promise. However, the formation between the Mountain and Sea Secret Realm and Earth is not an ordinary one. Even if we gather the Seven Divine Artifacts, recklessly opening it would be perilous. Are you sure your strength can withstand the backlash of the formation?" Shan Ba Mei asked with a pale expression and a sense of helplessness.
"A mere two-realm formation poses no threat to me. Here’s what I’ll do: I will first help you lift part of the seal so that Spiritual Energy can enter. Then I will teach you a Forging Soul Technique to preserve your three souls; that is what you should focus on now. As for whether you can return to your physical body and be revived later, that depends on your fortune," Jiang Chen explained.
Upon hearing Jiang Chen's words, Shan Ba Mei's somewhat ethereal complexion showed surprise and joy.
"Can I really be revived?" Shan Ba Mei asked, unable to hide her excitement.
"Perhaps," Jiang Chen nodded.
In truth, Jiang Chen did not explicitly state that with his assistance, Shan Ba Mei could definitely be revived; however, such a revival was not an easy task. After all, Shan Ba Mei had been dead for tens of thousands of years. Fortunately, her physical body was intact. With Jiang Chen's full support, she could indeed be revived; yet he wouldn’t make any guarantees in front of her since the information she had provided did not warrant such an investment of effort from him to bring her back to life.
