Chapter 77. The Empty Shell
The valley, once roaring with the titan’s dying cries, now felt like a hollow dream carved into the land. The giant creature lay still beneath Rick and Luna, its body glowing faintly with a soft silver warmth that drifted through the air like dust from a star. Trees around the cliffs trembled gently as if bowing in gratitude. Rivers shimmered with new life. The land breathed again. But Rick did not.He lay across the titan’s chest, his arms limp at his sides, his head turned slightly to the left, his lips parted as if caught mid-breath that never finished. His skin was pale. His eyelids barely covered his eyes. The golden lines that had once pulsed along his veins were dark and silent.Luna knelt beside him, one hand on his cheek, the other clenching his sleeve so tightly her knuckles turned white. Her eyes were swollen from crying, and dust clung to her hair and face, giving her the look of a ghost still searching for a lost soul.“Please wake up,” she whispered. Her voice was we
Chapter 78. The Last Vision
The world around Rick faded the moment he closed his eyes. There was no pain at first, only a strange weightlessness, as if his spirit slipped from his body and drifted into a place that did not obey the laws of the living. The valley vanished. Luna’s voice faded. Even the titan’s heartbeat fell silent. He floated.Light spread beneath him like a rippling ocean made of stardust. Above him stretched a sky with no stars, only swirling clouds of gold and blue, like the breath of a sleeping god. He tried to breathe but realized he had no lungs here. He tried to move but had no limbs. He simply existed.Then the light beneath him trembled, forming shapes, patterns, and veins of energy that pulsed like a living heart. The world around him twisted, shifting into an endless hall made of cracked marble and glowing script. The symbols on the walls moved like living creatures, swirling and bending as if reacting to a hidden pulse.Rick felt small. Small and unprepared. A soft voice echoed th
Chapter 79. The Vow
Rick awoke to the sound of soft wind moving through the valley. It was gentle, almost like a lullaby, brushing over the grass and carrying the faint scent of new life. His eyes opened slowly. The sky above him was a pale blue, streaked with early morning light. For a moment he lay still, unsure if he had truly returned from the dream or if this was another layer of illusion.But then he felt something warm and heavy on his chest. Luna.She had fallen asleep leaning against him, her forehead resting near his shoulder, her crystalline arm pressed carefully across his stomach as if protecting him even in her dreams. Her breathing was steady, but there was a quiet exhaustion beneath each inhale, as though her body had not fully recovered from the night before.Rick exhaled softly. So this was real. The titan beneath them moved faintly, its massive body stretching like a mountain waking from long sleep. The skin beneath Rick’s back pulsed with soft light, a heartbeat that echoed throu
Chapter 80. The Healer Who Bled
The morning sun rose slowly over the valley, painting the sky in soft amber light. Rick and Luna stood together at the edge of the titan’s resting body, watching as the creature breathed in long, steady waves. The valley had turned quiet after the storm of Qi and pain from the night before. Birds perched on newly grown branches.Light glimmered off pools of water that had been poisoned only days ago. Life returned on soft feet and gentle breezes. But Rick did not feel the warmth of the sun the way he used to.Every breath carried a dull ache through his ribs. Every beat of his heart felt like fingers pressing against a bruise. Every shift of his weight sent a pulse of pain down his arms, sharp and cold, as if needles were woven into his nerves. This was the price of his vow.Luna watched him carefully. She held her crystalline arm close to her body, as though the morning chill could affect it, though both she and Rick knew that the arm was not normal flesh. It pulsed faintly with s
Chapter 81. Echoes of the Titan
The valley felt different the next morning. The air held a strange new texture, soft yet heavy, like a warm breath over a bowl of water. Rick woke to the faint sound of something dripping in the distance. It was not rain. It was the sound of Qi falling like dew, tiny drops of glowing mist sinking into the soil.Luna stood at the mouth of their small camp, her crystalline arm catching the morning light and breaking it into soft reflections against the grass. She turned her head as Rick rose from his blanket. “You are awake,” she said gently.Rick nodded, rubbing his tired eyes. His hands shook faintly, a reminder of the vow and its cost. The pain was not sharp this time, only a slow pulse beneath his ribs. He could live with this.“What time is it?” Rick asked.“Early,” Luna replied. “But the valley has been awake for hours.”Rick blinked. “Awake?”“Yes,” Luna said. She gestured for him to follow. “You should see it.”He walked slowly beside her, each step measured and careful. The p
Chapter 82. The Philosopher’s Crucible
The valley was still waking from the miracle of the titan’s healing. Thin mist crawled along the ground like newborn breath, and the air hummed with soft pulses of Qi, rising from soil that had once been dry and dead. Rick stood at the valley’s center, staring at the glowing cracks that ran across the earth like veins of molten gold. They pulsed with the titan’s new heart, a beat that echoed through the world. His own pulse answered it every few steps, a reminder of the vow he carved into the living mountain.“To heal is to suffer,” he whispered under his breath, touching his chest where his dual pulses stirred.Luna watched him from the side, her new crystalline arm glowing faintly under the morning light. She still looked weak, but there was something steadier in her eyes, something shaped by pain and resolve. She held her cloak around her shoulders and asked quietly, “Are you sure you want to do this today? You barely recovered.”Rick gave a small smile, tired but determined. “
Chapter 83. First Elixir of Renewal
The morning sun broke through the mist, casting pale gold over the valley. Birds circled high above, singing in thin voices that echoed like bells through the air. The world felt strangely alive, as if every leaf and stone listened for something new. Rick stood beside the central stone basin, the one that held the tiny droplet of Soul Distillate he created.It was still there, glowing faintly, pulsing like a quiet heart.Luna watched from a short distance, her crystalline arm tucked against her chest. She did not hide her unease. “Rick,” she said softly, “I still think you should destroy that thing. It feels… wrong.”He did not answer. His eyes were fixed on the Distillate. The light reflected in his tired face, making the shadows under his eyes deeper. The weight of the vow he carried pressed heavily on his shoulders. He could feel the pain of every healing he had performed since carving the vow into the living mountain, and it made his whole body ache like an old bruise.But the a
Chapter 84. Dialogue with Death
The night settled over the valley like a heavy blanket, dark and silent except for the soft pulse of Qi drifting through the soil. The transformed land shimmered faintly, glowing in small patches where the titan’s lingering energy touched the ground. A cold wind brushed through the grass, carrying with it the scent of something old, something sacred, something half-remembered.Rick sat cross-legged near the small creature he had healed with the Soul Elixir. The little beast slept peacefully, unaware of the storm it had sparked. Luna slept farther away, her crystalline arm reflecting the moonlight like ice. She had stayed awake for as long as she could, watching Rick with worry in her eyes, but exhaustion finally claimed her.Rick, however, could not rest. His chest felt tight, his head heavy, his pulse uneven. Every time he closed his eyes, he saw the creature’s face staring back at him with human-like sorrow.He took a long breath and straightened his spine. “Meditation,” he whisp
Chapter 85. The Alchemist’s Code
The sun had not yet risen, but the valley was already awake. The strange new life growing across the land pulsed with a slow glow, like soft breath moving through soil. Roots shimmered faintly under the earth, veins of Qi running through stone and water. Rick stood in the center of the clearing, the air cold against his skin, his breath rising like mist.He had not slept. His eyes were heavy, but they held a sharp clarity, the kind that came from painful truths finally settling in the mind.Behind him, Luna stirred from her makeshift bedding, rubbing her eyes with her good hand. Her crystalline arm shimmered with early light, casting rainbow reflections on the stone wall beside her.She stood slowly, watching Rick with worry. “You are awake again,” she said, voice soft.Rick did not turn. His attention was fixed on the obsidian slabs he had dragged from the valley’s edge. Dark, smooth, heavy stones lay arranged in a circle around the clearing. They reflected nothing, light simply sa
Chapter 86. The Homunculus Seed
The valley had grown quiet over the past few days. The strange Qi rain had stopped falling from the sky, the shimmering plants had settled into steady rhythms, and the air felt heavier, as if the land itself held its breath. The dawn light stretched across the ground like a thin golden sheet, touching every root and stone.Rick stood at the center of the Alchemist’s Ring, surrounded by the obsidian slabs he carved his laws into. His eyes were shadowed from lack of sleep, and his hands trembled slightly. But he did not stop. He had collected a small pile of pale Qi crystals from the valley’s heart, crystals formed from the titan’s lingering essence and the valley’s healing hum.Luna watched him from a short distance. She sat on a rock with her legs pulled close, her expression troubled. Her crystalline arm glowed softly in the morning light, but her eyes were fixed on Rick’s movements.“Rick,” she said, her voice calm but tight, “you have been at this since last night. You need to
