What! The Wives in My Dreams Are Real?

At this moment, the Great Elder of Great Desolation Valley, Sang Yuling, was no longer a vague mass of white vapor.

She had become a true divine soul body, faintly radiating light from head to toe.

Her features were now exceptionally clear—identical to the face carved upon the statue.

Sun Rumiao was visibly moved.

Kneeling on one knee, her voice trembling, she said, “Great Elder... you’ve finally returned!”

In truth, Sun Rumiao had not lied to Zhao Qian.

The three elders of Great Desolation Valley had indeed fallen.

Before her final breath, Great Elder Sang Yuling had warned Sun Rumiao never to reveal that all the elders had perished.

Otherwise, Great Desolation Valley—already on the verge of collapse—would likely crumble entirely.

Once people’s hearts scattered, every God Clan member would leave.

At that point, the vow to revive the Divine Alliance would become nothing more than empty words.

So in the years to come, you must conceal this truth and carry the banner of Great Desolation Valley alone.

It will be hard on you.

At that time, Sun Rumiao had been heartbroken—but she had no choice but to accept reality.

She lived through years pretending the elders were still alive.

But as time passed, she gradually discovered something unexpected.

Although Great Elder Sang Yuling had indeed fallen, a trace of her remnant soul had not completely dissipated.

Whether it was due to overwhelming obsession or some other reason, no one knew.

But the result was good.

When Sun Rumiao first took Sang Yuling as her master, she had already regarded her as family.

To learn that she had not truly vanished filled her with indescribable joy.

Yet that remnant soul was far too fragile.

Sun Rumiao could only temporarily house it within the statue.

From that day onward—

She no longer had to pretend.

She could truly communicate with Sang Yuling.

Though the remnant soul was weak—able to speak only once per month, and no more than ten sentences each time—

It was still far better than before.

However, whether mortal or god, all beings are greedy.

When starving, even a single steamed bun is a feast.

But once steamed buns are no longer a luxury and are available at any time—

They no longer satisfy desire.

People begin to crave meat every day.

Crude words, but true.

As time passed, Sun Rumiao grew unwilling to settle for mere occasional conversations.

She began searching for a way to bring Great Elder Sang Yuling back to life.

Heaven favors the diligent—she truly found a secret manual.

Within it was recorded the method of remnant soul reincarnation.

Using Sang Yuling’s ghost-god body as an example:

One must choose a Yin year, Yin day, and Yin hour, and lay down a Soul-Gathering Suppression formation as the foundation.

Then the remnant soul must devour enough divine souls as nourishment, strengthening its soul body.

Afterward, find a suitable vessel and perform possession.

Finally, through ritual sacrifice, completely offer up the possessed God Clan member’s divine soul—

Allowing the Great Elder to fuse perfectly with the body.

That was the secret of remnant soul rebirth.

It sounded simple.

In practice, it was extraordinarily difficult. The slightest misstep could cause the remnant soul to dissipate entirely.

After all, compared to a complete divine soul, a remnant soul was far too fragile.

But now—

The most dangerous stage had already passed.

What remained was possession.

“You’ve worked hard.”

Sang Yuling spoke, yet her gaze instinctively shifted toward Heng Xuanzhen.

She was the one Sun Rumiao had divined as possessing the highest talent—and the most suitable body vessel for Sang Yuling.

Thus she was named the Fate-Chosen Woman.

Previously, Sun Rumiao had used Mirror Flower Water Moon to let Sang Yuling glimpse Heng Xuanzhen’s appearance.

So Sang Yuling quickly identified her target.

Unable to restrain herself, she urged, “Come. Continue the unfinished ritual.”

Hearing this, Sun Rumiao dared not delay.

She rose immediately and returned to her original position.

Her hands formed Dao seals rapidly.

An extremely complex formation diagram appeared beneath her feet—

Then expanded at incredible speed.

Before Heng Xuanzhen could react, the eight Dragon-Locking Chains seemed to awaken with life, suddenly binding her completely.

An invisible force compelled her to walk toward the center of the Enlightenment Platform before the main hall.

One step.

Two steps.

Three steps.

As she drew closer to the designated position, Sang Yuling’s eyes nearly gleamed with excitement.

But Heng Xuanzhen abruptly stopped.

She stepped forward heavily—

The ground exploded into a massive crater beneath her foot, stabilizing her body completely.

“Break!”

With a sharp cry, the Dragon-Locking Chains around her shattered instantly.

She regained her freedom.

With a single thought, sword intent gathered wildly around her.

A seven-colored divine sword formed entirely of sword intent appeared before Heng Xuanzhen.

When she grasped it—

In that instant, her entire aura surged explosively.

The Heng Xuanzhen who held a sword and the one who did not were two entirely different existences.

At this moment, the pressure of the peak Ancient God Realm was fully unleashed.

Sun Rumiao’s body sank involuntarily, her head lowering.

Even Sang Yuling’s newly condensed soul body began trembling violently.

Only Ye Yu and Little White remained largely unaffected.

It seemed Heng Xuanzhen acted subconsciously.

Just as she would never fear being attacked from behind when standing with her back to Ye Yu.

“Truly... a vessel perfected to the extreme. It proves my judgment was quite good.

But if you think that as an outsider you can suppress me—how naive.”

Sang Yuling forced a smile.

Then she raised her right hand and drew a strange symbol in the air.

Instantly—

The entire ground of Great Desolation Valley radiated red light.

A gigantic formation diagram emerged.

The divine power of heaven and earth surged like a tidal wave toward this place.

The wandering souls that had been completely suppressed suddenly seemed replenished with strength and grew active once more.

They roamed and screamed wildly.

Above Sang Yuling’s head, they formed a massive vortex.

In an instant, ghostly qi filled the area, turning it into something akin to the deepest layer of the Underworld.

Soon, the wandering souls no longer circled above her.

They began pouring frantically into her body.

The force was immense, pushing Sang Yuling’s soul form backward step by step.

Yet with each step back, the divine power within her grew stronger.

When the hundreds of thousands of wandering souls had all been absorbed—

Her cultivation had astonishingly reached the early stage of the Divine Lord Realm.

This—

Was Sang Yuling’s final trump card as Great Elder of Great Desolation Valley.

To use the entire Divine Alliance as a power supply.

At the most desperate moment, draw forth the divine power hidden beneath the ground through formation techniques and claim it for oneself.

This was the untransmitted secret of Great Desolation Valley.

Ordinarily, only the leader of the Divine Alliance would know it.

And it was the very courage that allowed Sang Yuling to face unknown danger head-on.
