Earth.
After Li Qingyun's Taiqing Body will had accompanied Gu Qingzhu through the final stretch of her life, it had finally brought his Dao cultivation to completion. There was no longer any need for it to remain here.
After the three-man group known as "Irresistible Force" burst onto the scene, Earth's twisted, rapidly ascending path of technology had come to an abrupt halt. All humanity had entered a frenzy in pursuit of transcendent power.
In this life, like the vast majority of mortals, Gu Qingzhu had possessed no aptitude for cultivation. Naturally, she had departed smiling after a hundred years.
Li Qingyun had not interfered with the course of her life this time, because this was the best way to "make up what was missing."
As for this shell of his Past Life Body, because his will had descended into it, it had naturally become the strongest so-called Heavenly Spiritual Root among cultivators. Thus, even after a hundred years, it remained youthful and had entered the Golden Core stage long ago.
"Qingzhu, when you return in your next life, this body will still be here, to accompany you through a second, more wonderful life..."
With a slight stir of fate, Gu Qingzhu's second life was destined to be "transcendent and unworldly."
In this life of hers, the two had not borne any children. Naturally, Li Qingyun had felt there was no meaning in doing so.
Once she returned through reincarnation, they could renew their bond.
"This poor Daoist is leaving! What remains in this body is the Past Life Body's truest emotional 'memory-consciousness.' Let him develop naturally..."
In a single thought, the will of Li Qingyun's Taiqing Body detached itself from Earth. Like a streaking meteor crossing the starry sky, it returned to its place in Three Pure Ones Heaven.
