634 Soothing Emotions
Her arms were weak as she tried to lift her fingers and activate the spiritual energy within her body, but Luoluo found that she was unable to control even the slightest part of her current shape.
She had initially tried to make Xue Wei attack with lightning elemental Qi as she knew the weakness of all evil spirits was lightning. However after seeing the result she could not help but feel her heart sink.
The situation they were currently facing was perilous and she could imagine the devastation that these rampant remnant emotions would cause if they reached their group.
Emotions were not spirits, nor were they souls or even humans. These rampant emotions had been accumulating for thousands of years, merging together to become the current amalgamation, and they could not be harmed by pure force. Even lightning was useless, and thus she knew that there was only one other way to solve the current issue.
Luoluo took a deep breath as she looked at the comrades that had gathered around her. She could still remember how Xue Wei and the others had found her in the Garden of Shadows, and how she slowly regained her senses and became the spirit she was now.
Back then, she had been close to disappearing, but only by Xue Wei and the others by his side had she bloomed once more, enjoying a life of freedom.
She slowly looked at the stoic Xue Wei that was constantly using his Qi to push back these eternally regenerating emotions, and even the naive and foolish Ling Xiao had a solemn expression on his face.
Hei Gou had lost his memories, but even so, he was still faithfully standing by their side and fighting with everything he had.
Finally, Luoluo glanced at Bai Tianyi by her side. This little spirit was a weird creature. He had, initially, been a human, but he kept searching for something else. Finally, he had succeeded and understood what it was like to be satisfied with his current life.
.....
Looking at the four people by her side, Luoluo could not help but smile slightly. Her heart was filled with a strange feeling of happiness, but also slightly melancholic.
She knew that there was a special method to handle the remnant emotions in front of her, but she was also painfully well aware of the cost.
Emotions had no consciousness, they were purely created from the despair and anger that the dying souls felt, so the only way to solve their current situation was to soothe and calm down these frustrations until they became nothing.
However, the cost would be that Luoluo had to use her entire core to soothe them. She was a spirit, and her entire spirituality was based within this core. If she were to use this core to soothe the emotions, she would return to her original shape.
While it did not sound like death, it was not far from it. Luoluo’s original body was a white lily. When she first gained consciousness, she was still a beautiful flower swaying at the riverbed.
It took her thousands of years before she turned from a spiritual herb into a true spirit, and even longer for her to reach the point where she was now.
If she used her core to soothe these emotions, she would once more turn into a white lily, and this time, her consciousness would be lost.
Although it would be possible for her to become a spirit once more, the likelihood of this happening was immensely small, and she dared not expect it to happen, so the decision she was making now was not possible to share with the others.
Luoluo knew that her decision would never be approved by Xue Wei and the others. Even though they did not care about the rest of the world, their care and consideration towards their comrades was sincere, and she was well aware of their refusal for her current plan.
Looking at her body that was no longer acting as she wanted, Luoluo could not help but smile wryly. It seemed that she would need to act decisively if she wished to give her friends a chance of survival.
“I am sorry.” Although she knew that they would never approve of her decision. Luoluo’s eyes filled with determination as she witnessed the panicked expression of those in front of her. She knew that the current situation might seem under control, but the rampant emotions could not be stopped.
It was better to act swiftly before anyone was injured than to drag it on and lower their chance of future survival.
“Break.”
Luoluo’s voice was low, and in the chaos and noisy environment, it was not easy to hear the ethereal whisper that floated past, but the strong energy fluctuations that followed caused Bai Tianyi to panic.
“Luoluo!” His eyes widened as he looked at the spirit by his side. Luoluo had been a pillar of support for the entire team and an important comrade for so long, but while Xue Wei and the others did not understand her current actions, Bai Tianyi could sense the destruction of her core.
“Thank you all, I am really grateful for coming this far with you. I was supposed to die in the Garden of Shadows, but you gave me a new life full of freedom. Roaming the world alongside you all has been a great joy. If possible, please protect my original shape in the future.”
Luoluo’s voice was still low, merely a whisper, but this time it was infused with spiritual energy.
The entire spiritual energy had been filled with her own state of mind at the moment of breaking her core. Unlike most, she did not have any regret or despair, but only tranquility and serenity.
