Lv Junyu agreed to a hundred-year timeline for developing spaceships and improving spiritual medicine yields. Meanwhile, on Blue Star, Lin Jiang and Cao Ying discussed the Buddhist sect's new race for power and Cao Ying's growing hunger for dao auras. They also planned to support the Tianyuan Star Domain against the Buddhist sect, while considering the need for more planets for their own growing powers.

One full cycle of ten thousand years in the Xia calendar of Blue Star, Lingqing Star

Lin Ying is getting ready for the Transmigration, and the ominous clouds in the sky have started to gather.

A large number of powerful experts from the Blue Star camp have gathered at Lingqing Star, and Lin Jiang has arrived in person to protect Lin Ying. Even outside Lingqing Star, it is filled with Space Battleships, ready for any unexpected events.

"Don’t worry too much. After preparing for so many years, Lin Ying will be fine."

Cao Ying noticed that underneath Lin Jiang’s calm appearance was endless worry, and spoke words of comfort.

Lin Jiang has put his heart into Lin Ying; over the years, he has sacrificed so much for her. The robe that Lin Ying wears is made of top-quality materials, just as good as Lin Jiang’s. The formation used for the Transmigration is extremely refined, and it was personally crafted by Zhu Bin, who is far away in the Tianbei Star Domain.

Lin Ying also has a large number of top healing medicines, some of which Lin Jiang personally sought from other planets, including a holy medicine that can remove internal demons, a treasure worth a fortune on any planet.

"I know this day would come sooner or later. I hope my preparations are useful."

Lin Jiang said, knowing that he has indeed spent a lot of effort for this day, not just in terms of money but also in his emotions. He fears that Lin Ying might suffer from a breakdown similar to depression and ultimately fail in overcoming the internal demons.

"Sister, sister, you must succeed!"

Big Shadiao flew around Lin Ying constantly. For these thousands of years, Big Shadiao has been the one who spent the most time with Lin Ying. Lin Jiang was very busy and hardly had any time to be with Lin Ying.

"Yes, I will succeed."

Lin Ying glanced at Big Shadiao and then looked at Lin Jiang.

She told herself that she had to succeed, not just for herself, but also for Lin Jiang. She realized that she was the last blood relative of Lin Jiang. If she died, what would happen to Lin Jiang? Thinking this way, she felt that she could not fail.

"Come back, Big Shadiao."

Lin Jiang glanced at the sky; he couldn’t let Big Shadiao go closer, or else the heavens might make a mistake, and that would not be good. Big Shadiao was strong enough to cause a mistake in the heavens.

Half an hour later, Lin Ying’s Transmigration began. The first lightning bolt fell, and Lin Ying faced the Heavenly Tribulation.

One lightning bolt after another fell, but Lin Ying withstood them all. She was strong herself and had countless treasures by her side. Even if she got hurt by the lightning, she could recover quickly.

"The ninth lightning bolt, the final challenge."

In the blink of an eye, the ninth lightning strike fell, the most powerful one. Even with treasures by her side, Lin Ying was blasted to the ground, unknown if she was alive or dead.

However, at that moment, Lin Ying did not die. She had two pills in her mouth, one of which was a healing medicine made by Lin Huafei. The strong life force quickly spread, restoring Lin Ying’s vitality.

At the same time, Lin Ying entered a vision, and the saddest memories from her heart were brought back to life.

"Mother…"

Lin Ying saw her dear mother. When her mother died, it was the first time Lin Ying felt a heart-wrenching pain.

Almost ten thousand years had passed, and seeing her mother again made Lin Ying very sad and nostalgic. Scenes from her childhood appeared in her memory, when everyone was still there, including Lin Batian’s other children.

Because of this, Lin Ying did not get lost in her feelings. Soon, the scene shifted to when the Lin family’s gate was broken down, marking their first move. Over the next few hundred years, the Lin family moved many times to avoid the pursuit of enemies, and that was a heart-wrenching time.

The scene quickly changed to the great battle in Qing State, where the high-ranking officials of Yun State fought against Yang Luo in Qing State. Lin Ying saw Lin Batian die in battle with her own eyes.

Lin Batian was not a qualified father; he was only a qualified clan leader and family master. But Lin Batian’s death was still a huge blow to Lin Ying, a very big blow.

Before Lin Batian died in battle, the Lin family was supported solely by him. He was like a pillar holding up the sky for the Lin family’s children. They needed only to follow Lin Batian’s commands, but when Lin Batian died, they initially felt as if the sky had fallen.

The entire Lin family was anxious and restless, but Lin Ying had to gather her strength. At that time, Lin Die was already missing, and she had to hold the Lin family together. Only she knew how helpless she felt then.

Fortunately, she got through it, enduring both in reality and in the illusion, and the scene turned into the moment when Lin Die died.

That was the darkest moment of Lin Ying’s life. Lin Die’s death was planned by Lin Jiang, a betrayal between siblings. Although Lin Jiang repeatedly told her that it wasn’t Lin Die, but Jiujie Divine Silkworm, Lin Ying stubbornly believed that it was Lin Die.

A wave of despair washed over her once again, as if all hope had vanished. A sense of lifelessness surrounded Lin Ying, causing Lin Jiang and the others to feel tightness in their hearts.

They all knew that Lin Ying’s illusion had reached its most critical moment; if she could get past this, she would succeed.

"Don’t worry, her vitality is still strong, and the medicine should be taking effect."

Cao Ying held Lin Jiang’s hand, reassuring him not to worry too much.

The second medicine in Lin Ying’s mouth began to take effect, releasing a cool essence that enveloped her entire body, and in Lin Ying’s illusion, Lin Jiang appeared.

"Little Ying, with three thousand laws of the way, we practitioners should…"

"Little Ying…"

Some profound truths were spoken by Lin Jiang, making Lin Ying slowly raise her head.

········

"The will of heaven has responded, the gentle rain has fallen, Lin Ying has become…"

Cao Ying watched the dark clouds gradually disappear and breathed a sigh of relief. Lin Ying was the last blood relative of the man she loved. She couldn’t imagine how sad Lin Jiang would be if Lin Ying died here; it would even become Lin Jiang’s internal demon.

"Let’s go."

"Leave now?"

Lin Jiang’s words shocked Cao Ying. It shouldn’t be this way. Lin Ying had successfully transcended; shouldn’t they stay to celebrate?

"Okay, let’s go now."

Lin Jiang said, pulling Cao Ying along.

"I can’t figure out why."

"Don’t worry about that, let’s go."

Lin Jiang left behind a sentence and quickly flew away.

He didn’t know how to comfort Lin Ying. Lin Jiang understood the terror of internal demons. Lin Ying was surely trapped in a dream, reliving her most terrifying moments, which included the time she killed the Jiujie Divine Silkworm—her darkest hour. At that moment, Lin Jiang decided not to approach her; a brief separation was for the best.

Lin Jiang left Lingqing Star, while the others stayed to celebrate Lin Ying. Lin Ying accepted it calmly. After passing the Heavenly Tribulation, her mind had strengthened greatly. In truth, she saw through many things and wouldn’t blame Lin Jiang at all.

Lin Ying took control of Lingqing Star, and now each of the five immortals from the Blue Star faction owned their own planet. Lin Jiang was also making plans for Lin Ying; the mid-level and higher officials from Lingqing Star would gradually be called back.

These mid-level and high officials were like Lin Ying’s reserve supplies, but only if they couldn’t succeed in Transmigration.

This kind of thing has become a routine, just like the Centaur people from Ying Continent who stayed on Blue Star; their skills are not very high, and those with high skills have all returned to Jiang Star. Each of them should take care of their own supplies to avoid future disputes.

Lin Ying’s success also inspired Shenwu Demon Emperor and the others; they all wanted to Transmigration, but they were stopped by the Demon Queen. The Demon Queen simply told them how much preparation Lin Jiang made for Lin Ying.

They need to understand that Lin Ying’s success did not come easily; it was achieved with countless resources. If they want to Transmigration, they should think about whether they have the means. If not, they should quietly prepare and settle down.

Shenwu Demon Emperor and the others were put off and stopped mentioning the matter; they decided to save money and buy treasures instead. They have already lived for tens of thousands of years, so a few hundred or a few thousand more years do not matter.
