87: Exchange the rest of your life
Meng Yun hugged Vivian and descended gracefully from the sky.
In Newt City, everyone was still immersed in disbelief and the ecstasy of surviving the disaster.
"Won...? It was that easy to win?"
"Easy? You try it?"
"This is great, this is great, I don't have to die..."
Some were in disbelief, some were blank, and some were distraught, kneeling on the ground and weeping bitterly.
At this moment, Meng Yun and Vivian, who were floating down from the sky, were undoubtedly the true Gods in their hearts.
It had nothing to do with their strength, which rivaled that of a God.
It was purely out of gratitude for their contribution to saving all living beings.
Countless people prostrated themselves before Meng Yun and Vivian, praising them endlessly.
Even Layla and the others could not hide their joy at this moment.
Now that the apocalypse was over, a new life had finally arrived.
Imperceptibly, she glanced at No. 1.
She noticed that No. 1 was also looking at her with a serious expression.
"Tsk tsk tsk, Little Seven smells something sour ~"
"Meow ao ~" Ruyi also chimed in from the side.
The human man and human woman are in heat, meow!
Under this gaze, Layla blushed, but allowed No. 1 to pass through the crowd and come to her side.
"Hug, hug!"
"Hug, hug!"
"Meow ao ao ~"
Amidst the cheers of the crowd, even with a face like tree bark, No. 1 couldn't help but blush.
"Are you going to make the woman take the initiative?" Layla's words softly echoed in No. 1's ears.
No. 1's heart fluttered, and he woodenly embraced Layla.
Hmm.
Layla felt something as hard as iron.
After all, this was Meng Yun's most proud creation.
Even if Luo Mian himself saw it, he would have to give him a thumbs up.
Layla would have a good life from now on.
"Meow ao?"
Ruyi widened its eyes, watching all of this, and couldn't help but fall into contemplation.
It wondered if an android and an elf could successfully have offspring?
If not, letting Layla be a childless cat lady didn't seem so bad, meow?
In a scene of peace and harmony, Meng Yun, with a worried expression, flew towards Vivian's room, carrying her.
Among the crowd, only Ruyi, who was closest to Meng Yun, keenly sensed his abnormality and, almost without hesitation, left the onlookers and followed him.
Meng Yun quickly placed the girl on the bed; in a mere two and a half minutes, the girl's body was almost imperceptible.
If it weren't for her clothes still holding her up, Meng Yun might not have been able to find her at a glance.
Regarding why the girl was like this, Meng Yun had a faint guess in his heart.
After the demon seed was eradicated, the world rules, which had been interfered with, began to re-establish themselves.
Vivian's current change was, in all likelihood, an effect brought about by the re-establishment of world rules.
"Meow ao?" Ruyi also appeared in the room.
Meng Yun, what are you so eager to do?
When it saw Vivian's appearance on the bed, being an elemental crystal incarnation itself, it keenly perceived everything.
"Meow meow meow meow!" Ruyi cried out nervously.
She's undergoing elementalization!
The re-establishment of world rules requires immense power, and Vivian has gathered the wishes of billions of living beings; she is the most suitable supply!
Meng Yun was startled: "If the world is allowed to absorb her, what will be the consequences?"
"Meow meow meow!!"
At best, she will merge with the world rules and become the supreme existence of this world;
At worst, she will be annihilated, leaving nothing but dust!
No matter what, she will not be the Vivian you want to see!
Meng Yun pressed: "Can I reshape her body for her?"
"Meow meow!"
You can, but she's already at the God Art Master realm; where are you going to find God-level Alchemy materials?!
After speaking, Ruyi froze.
Because it clearly saw Meng Yun pointing at himself.
"My body is the best God-level material!"
Ruyi was greatly alarmed: "Meow!"
Meng Yun, you're going to die!
Meng Yun could no longer hear anything else; he casually picked up Ruyi and carried it out the door, then cast the supreme defensive Arcane spell of a God Art Master.
Completely isolating his and Vivian's aura within.
Whether he himself would die was currently an unknown.
But if he didn't do this, Vivian would definitely die.
After all, judging by the size difference, even if he completely replaced her flesh one-to-one, he would still have at least one-third of his flesh left.
What's more, Vivian's current body was not entirely discarded; if her wish-power body could be compressed and sealed within her, it should be of great benefit to her.
Thinking this, Meng Yun raised his hand, and the girl's clothes fell away, revealing her translucent, almost invisible, perfect body.
Vivian's consciousness was hazy, allowing Meng Yun to lift her with elemental power, and then, she was enveloped by a black flame.
God-level Hellfire and God-level Life Alchemy were activated simultaneously.
"Meow wah wah—!"
Ruyi was isolated outside and could not see anything inside. It frantically scratched at the barrier with its paws, but couldn't leave even a single mark.
The difference in strength between an ordinary Arcane Envoy and a God Art Master was like a chasm.
In this isolation, Meng Yun began his final Life Alchemy.
【You cast God-level Life Alchemy】
【Within the embrace of the flames, Vivian's body remained almost motionless, but you could feel that your refining was effective, only waiting was left】
【One day later】
The body, which gathered the wishes of billions of living beings, was indeed incredibly tough; merely refining it slightly and separating the spirit from the flesh almost exhausted Meng Yun.
But fortunately, the most dangerous step was successfully completed.
"Hoo ~"
Meng Yun looked at the illusory divine soul and the even more transparent girl's body before him, and in one go, prepared to reshape her flesh.
He manipulated an elemental blade and directly cut off his left arm, casually throwing it into the flames.
He didn't make a sound throughout the process.
If the pain of being burned by Hellfire day and night was 100, then cutting off an arm alive was at most only 20.
Under Meng Yun's manipulation, the arm began to merge with the girl's original body.
Countless wishes of sentient beings were squeezed out by him, but as they were about to dissipate into the world, Life Alchemy firmly locked them in.
"Don't run..."
"You will be one of my sister's important means in the future..."
【You cut off your left leg, and the girl's body reshaping progress is 40%】
【You cut off your right leg, and the girl's body reshaping progress is 70%】
"If this continues, all five limbs will be gone..."
Meng Yun felt this was not a solution, so he decided to go for something drastic.
【You cut off your... heart. The Fallen God Master's heart possesses incredibly vigorous vitality, allowing the girl's body to be completely reshaped】
Looking at the girl's perfectly solidified body in the flames, Meng Yun wiped the sweat from his forehead with his only remaining right arm.
As a Fallen God Master, as long as his own divine soul remained, his body could always be reshaped, it was only a matter of time.
The reason Meng Yun wanted to use his heart was, firstly, because the heart had the strongest energy, saving time and effort;
Secondly, he hoped that in Vivian's remaining life, his heart could beat with hers.
Meng Yun could no longer accompany her.
From the moment the girl stepped into the God Art Master realm, the lifespan consumed to transform her into a human had geometrically skyrocketed.
This was a life form transformation at the God-level realm!
Originally, after becoming a Fallen God Master, Meng Yun could live for several thousand years without any problem.
But now, it was hard to say.
【You sacrificed a thousand years of lifespan, attempting to combine the girl's soul and body, but you failed】
【A feeling of weakness followed】
【You sacrificed a thousand years of lifespan, the girl's soul and body merged for an instant, then separated again, you failed again】
【A greater sense of weakness enveloped you】
【You sacrificed a thousand years of lifespan, the gem covering the girl's body completely fell off, which means she is no longer a containment object. But the soul and body still have great repulsion】
【Your body issued a fatal crisis warning】
【You sacrificed a hundred years of lifespan, the girl's soul and body merged again】
【You sacrificed ten years, two months, and five days of lifespan to help her further stabilize her condition】
【You succeeded】
【But you also perceived that your lifespan had reached its end】
【Your flame of life is like a flickering candle in the wind】
Meng Yun put away the flames and used elemental power to help the girl get dressed.
Then, he casually refined a table into his missing body parts and pieced them together.
It looked as good as new, but in reality, it didn't belong to him.
Meng Yun looked at Vivian, a satisfied smile on his face.
He had finally left his most satisfying work in this world.
Don't they all say that a sword-smith's final masterpiece is to leap into the forge, sacrificing himself to refine the sword, his body turning into a sword?
Meng Yun was just like that.
Exchanging his remaining life.
After all this was done, Vivian on the bed slowly woke up.
"Brother?"
