A System Creation: The Dazzling Suona
The Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace and his seven personal disciples became even more respectful.
At that moment, a flash of light appeared on the painting.
A phantom image appeared before everyone.
It was none other than the Fairy Qin in the painting.
"Greetings, Master!"
"Greetings, Master!"
The Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace immediately led his disciples in bowing in respect.
But the illusory figure of the Fairy Qin seemed not to hear, her eyes sweeping over Chen Ning.
To be precise, it was feeling the memory left behind by the three generations of sect leaders.
I don't know if it's because of the passage of time, or the mystery of the Spirit Control Technique of the three generations of sect leaders.
So much so that even the Fairy Qin's divine sense could no longer distinguish whether the Chen Ning standing in front of her was Chen Ning or the third-generation sect leader.
"I ask you, have you ever regretted it?"
The Fairy Qin's voice was ethereal and melancholic.
Chen Ning was momentarily stunned.
What's there to regret?
He didn't come either.
Only a memory remains.
Logically, you should be the one awakened, and then I should take the opportunity to ask you a question about your descendants.
Mission accomplished, everyone is happy.
This is how things should proceed normally.
But now you're asking me if I regret it?
How do I connect this?
Just as I was still confused, the Fairy Qin spoke again.
"Because you met a woman like me, who defied convention, you became the target of public condemnation. Do you regret it?"
"Because you fell in love with me, you became obsessed and will never be able to reach that highest realm. Do you regret it?"
After asking the question, the Fairy Qin smiled sadly.
His tone, however, was full of self-deprecation.
Hearing this, Chen Ning was deeply moved.
Eight hundred years have passed.
However, the Fairy Qin was awakened due to the reasons of the third generation.
This is such a difficult feeling to let go of.
Even though that's how you ask it.
But was it truly from the bottom of her heart?
Chen Ning thought that perhaps he was not being sincere.
It was just a way of venting.
On a whim, Chen Ning wanted to do something for the third generation.
His eyes dimmed.
He opened his mouth and said, "I regret it."
Upon hearing this statement...
Not only the Fairy Qin, but even the Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace and others behind her were taken aback.
What is he saying?
Didn't you see the patriarch's compassionate expression, and that he was in a state of grief?
Why add fuel to the fire at this crucial moment?
If this were to provoke the patriarch's divine wrath and something went wrong, not only would it ruin the fortuitous opportunity of the Immortal Music Palace, but it could also cause the patriarch's last trace in this world to disappear.
The Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace transmitted her voice to Lan Yuqing.
Tell her to go and stop Chen Ning immediately.
Lan Yuqing responded and walked towards Chen Ning.
But at this moment, a hint of anger had already appeared in Fairy Qin's eyes.
In an instant.
The sound of a piano rang out.
Centered on Chen Ning, terrifying murderous intent was gathering from all directions through murderous intent sound of the zither.
Even the air was ripped apart.
It seemed that at any moment, the Fairy Qin could kill Chen Ning with just a thought.
Chen Ning was taken aback.
This Fairy Qin truly lives up to her reputation as a veteran powerhouse from eight hundred years ago.
Even after becoming a wisp of divine thought, they all possessed the ability to kill.
However, it makes sense.
Chen Ning glanced at the paintings on the mountain wall.
That ancient painting must also be a Spirit Artifact, and at this moment, the power contained in the zither music also comes from that painting.
Just as the Fairy Qin was about to make her move.
Chen Ning's magnetic voice rang out. "Of course I regret it, but what I regret is not withstanding the pressure from those bastards in the sect's higher-ups!"
"What I regret is letting those hypocritical old men hold me hostage!"
"I regret even more that I didn't figure all this out when I was at Supreme Mystery Peak, and instead broke free from worldly constraints to embrace love!"
Chen Ning then changed the subject.
Looking at the Fairy Qin, a smile curved his lips as he said, "As for knowing and falling in love with you, I have never regretted it. I only regret that I only realized these things at the last moment of my life."
After Chen Ning finished speaking...
The Fairy Qin was stunned.
Immediately.
It seems that his emotions were subjected to extremely strong fluctuations.
The ancient painting on the mountainside also began to hum incessantly.
Like a song, like a lament.
After a long while, the painting returned to its calm state.
At this moment, the Fairy Qin's gaze passed over Chen Ning and landed on the Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace and the others.
A beam of moon-white light, imbued with the power of the Great Dao of Music, enveloped them.
When the Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace saw that Chen Ning had actually managed to appease the Ancestor, she was overjoyed. How could she not understand that this was fortuitous opportunity bestowed upon them by the Ancestor?
Then.
The Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace knelt and bowed in respect.
Quietly bathed in the moonlight.
The other women also knelt down, closing their eyes to comprehend the fortuitous opportunity bestowed upon them by their ancestor.
Only Lan Yuqing, because she had just gone to stop Chen Ning, was somewhat distant from the others.
Whether it was due to the Fairy Qin's oversight or not, the white light filled with the power of the Great Dao of Music did not envelop Lan Yuqing.
Chen Ning felt that the Fairy Qin must have been calmed down by him, and now he should strike while the iron was hot and try to find out the whereabouts of her descendants.
But before Chen Ning could ask, he saw the Fairy Qin's eyes filled with tenderness as she gazed at Lan Yuqing.
Boom!
Chen Ning immediately thought of a possibility.
Holy crap!
No way!
"She wouldn't... be you..."
Chen Ning still spoke in the tone of a third-generation sect leader, his expression full of astonishment.
"I became pregnant that day. Knowing I couldn't hide it from my master, I decided to sever ties with the sect. But I never expected you to be such a heartless person."
As the Fairy Qin's voice faded.
Chen Ning was utterly shocked.
The descendants of the Fairy Qin are also descendants of three generations of sect leaders!
No wonder the Immortal Music Palace, which he founded, later became an enemy of the Dragon-Seeking Sect.
No wonder the Fairy Qin never married.
It turns out that she always held the image of three generations of sect leaders in her heart.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, on completing the epic quest [The Last Wish of Past Sect Leaders]!"
"Ding! Congratulations, host, for finding the descendant of a third-generation sect leader."
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have received a reward of +1 cultivation level. Your current cultivation level is: Earth Martial Realm Eighth Heaven."
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the rare-level reward [Dazzling Suona]"
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the epic reward [The Great Dao of Music]!"
With the mission accomplished, Chen Ning immediately felt refreshed and invigorated.
She even obtained the Great Dao of Music, which was specialized in the lineage of the Fairy Qin.
At this moment, Chen Ning seemed to have gained a completely new understanding of music.
As long as you actively experience it.
It was as if everything was composing a melody.
Fallen leaves.
Flowing water.
The sound of the wind.
All of them produced beautiful and melodious notes.
And this power is gathered into the Dao of Music for one to command.
The Great Dao of Music has five realms.
These are respectively the Sound of the True Beginning, the Five Notes and Six Pitch Standards, the Lingering Sound Around the Beams, the Greatest Sound Is Inaudible Silent, and the Grand Music of the Central Heaven.
The Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace was merely at the realm of the Greatest Sound Is Inaudible.
Chen Ning, on the other hand, went directly to the fifth realm of the Great Dao of Music, Grand Music of the Central Heaven.
The music played was like celestial music from heaven.
This time we made a fortune.
Chen Ning was secretly delighted.
But the only strange thing is--
What the heck is this musical instrument that's being given as a reward?
After examining the situation in his mind, Chen Ning was momentarily bewildered.
[Dazzling Suona: A system-generated weapon not belonging to this world, a combat instrument of the same grade as the Eight Divine Artifacts Weapons, created according to the host's temperament (Note: Not only can it defend against enemies, but it can also express emotions, truly an essential item for home and travel)]
Although it's a bit strange, it's still on par with Divine Artifact like the Heaven-Slaying Bow.
It's barely usable.
