[A Moment But Forever]

[Episode 8]

Which one to choose?

Between these two.

What does that mean?

The flag can summon

Ji Tanyin's spirit

and purify her soul.

Reciting scriptures can help Ji Tanyin transcend,

eliminating all ominous deaths

and guiding her towards a prosperous and smooth reincarnation.

I asked the maids of Xiaoxiang Peak.

They all burry the deceased

in this manner.

Let's recite the scriptures.

Ji Tanyin,

come back.

Ji Tanyin,

come back.

Ji Tanyin,

a native of Pingzhou,

was a skilled artisan of the human race.

She was later recommended to join our Youhu Clan

[The Spiritual Seat of Ji Tanyin, Immortal Maiden and Servant Under the High Priest of Liujiao Palace]

to cultivate in the mountains.

Can't you stay for two more days?

After all, you've died once already.

My physical body is still down there.

If this gets delayed any further,

the body will start to rot.

You're a deity. Your corpse won't decay.

How could it possibly rot?

Tanyin, let me remind you one more time.

You are kind-hearted

and reluctant to kill him.

I'll tolerate it for now,

but if you interfere with his fate

and protect him,

as long as I find out,

I will never spare you.

I understand.

You've already died once

in front of him.

Have you thought about how to explain why you are back?

I am willing to sincerely recite this mantra

for Ji Tanyin,

hoping for her early nirvana.

Yuanzhong,

the ceremony can proceed to

the next step.

What else?

Mourn for the deceased,

express regrets for any wrongs done to her while alive,

so that she may rest in peace.

This is no longer necessary, is it?

Suit yourself.

I do owe her, after all.

Ji Tanyin,

since you arrived at the Liujiao Palace,

we have never treated you well.

I never expected that in the face of danger,

you would die to save Yuanzhong.

Actually, from the first time he met you,

he began to suspect you,

saying you had ulterior motives

and wanted to murder him.

I was also acting on Yuanzhong's instructions

testing you secretly all along.

We deliberately assigned you

difficult and dirty tasks

to do.

Didn't I tell you before

that Yuan Zhong required

eight meat dishes and eight vegetable dishes for each meal?

That was a lie.

Before you came,

he had at most two dishes per meal.

He...

Just talk about yourself.

Why do you keep bringing me into this?

Alright.

Ji Tanyin,

then I have nothing more to say.

Please rest in peace.

You were having so much to say,

but now I told you not to use me as an excuse,

you're speechless, huh?

So it's all my fault then?

I... I didn't say that.

Though up till this moment,

I'm still suspicious of you.

I don't quite understand

why you came into my life.

What was your true purpose?

But just like a lamp goes out when a person dies.

Now that you're gone,

I owe you in the end.

Ji Tanyin,

if there's an afterlife,

remember to stay far away from me.

What's so difficult about that?

Just say you are exceptionally gifted,

with your heart on the right side.

Or that you've practiced the art of feigning death.

Or perhaps,

you accidentally ate a divine fruit in childhood,

received divine visions,

blessings,

protections,

and so on and so forth.

There are plenty of excuses anyway.

He can't verify any of them.

Good idea.

I'll do it then.

What's wrong?

I suddenly feel uneasy.

I have a bad feeling.

Search.

Rest in peace.

I'm going back now.

It's too late.

Summon the wind, spread the clouds, bring the rain.

Did you foresee that it would rain today?

I'm not good at this.

You'd better hurry back.

I'm leaving now.

Why is it you again?

I must find my mother,

no matter the cost.

Let me ask you something.

Even if you find your mother,

what then?

Will she go back with you?

She's just a woman.

How could she possibly

evade the guards' eyes

and escape from this hidden town?

And besides,

at her age,

having given birth to so many children,

in this freezing weather,

she probably wouldn't even make it down Mountain Wu

before freezing to death.

And even if

you two managed to escape,

what good would it do?

Who would accept you?

As long as the Youhu Clan exists,

if the High Priest doesn't die,

our clan will always be

rats in the gutter.

Squeak, squeak,

just scraping by to survive, nothing more.

Then what should I do?

What can you do?

Well, well...

Why don't you go and beg the clan leader?

Perhaps,

she'll be willing to show mercy.

Will she?

Maybe.

The fragrance fills the heavens and earth,

lighting up incense through the Gate of Heaven.

With the scent stretching thousands of miles,

I offer prayers from afar, invoking the true deity to appear at this altar.

Chieftain of the War Demon Clan.

You are a deity?

I am the 75th-generation chieftain of the War Demon Clan.

Li Chaoyang.

Paying homage to the deity.

The War Demon Clan was once a divine race.

They were banished from the Divine Realm for their transgressions.

It's been only 3,000 years since then.

Yet each generation has become weaker than the last.

Not even the perfect body of a battle demon

has ever been achieved.

And yet, you've managed to ascend to

the position of the War Demon Clan's chieftain.

It's due to my foolishness

that I have been unable to overcome obstacles

and achieve the perfect War Demon.

But our clan has acknowledged its mistakes.

We beg for the deity's mercy.

Please guide our entire clan back to the divine realm.

And kill the High Priest of the Youhu Clan.

Then I will grant your request.

The High Priest

owes our clan a mountain of blood debt.

Even if the you hadn't mentioned it,

I also wish to kill him to settle the score.

But alas, he possesses the Divine Left Hand.

We are no match for him.

This blade is called God Slayer.

It is imbued with

the most vengeful and murderous intent in this world.

Pierce his heart with this,

and he will surely die.

Yes.

Ding Xu just summoned all the elders,

but no one responded.

They all declared they were going into seclusion.

But secretly, they sent their disciples

to pay respects to Xinyao.

However, they couldn't even

enter the gate of Medicine Valley.

They are now in a state of anxiety,

partly because of the War Demons,

and on the other hand,

they fear you'll settle the score later.

You don't need to inform me about such matters in the future.

You don't need to investigate deliberately either.

Now, apart from me,

there are four other weapon spirits of the Divine Hand

scattered in the outside world.

Shouldn't we

retrieve them now?

Baitou Mountain is the closest to us.

Are you thinking about Kai Shan?

I miss him.

Alright.

Then let's go to Baitou Mountain first.

Get ready

to depart in three days.

Okay.

In this world, I now have

only one mission.

It is to be with you.

Until your hair turns gray,

and your teeth fall out.

For a lifetime no matter what

I want you to be happy.

I am the person who believes in you the most.

I am the one who, in your lifetime,

will never betray you.

Fool.

[Tomb of Ji Tanyin]

High...

Didn't you just leave?

Why are you back again?

It seems I've died again.

It's one thing for mortals not to worship gods,

but is killing gods now in fashion?

What caused your death this time?

Yuanzhong killed me.

You killed her!

How could you kill her?

I didn't mean to.

She suddenly appeared.

And I had been drinking.

Ji Tanyin,

you're so unfortunate.

You barely

escaped death at the hands of Dingxu,

only to die at the hands of Yuanzhong.

How am I supposed to

avenge you now?

Wasn't she dead before?

How is she alive again?

How could I know?

What do we do now?

Let's bury her again.

For his sake, you

were imprisoned in the Ice Prison for 200 years,

even offending the deities from the Thunder Clan.

Is this how he repays you?

He's become suspicious of you.

Not exactly.

It seemed like

he mistook me for an assassin.

He thought you were an assassin?

Anyway, it's not his fault.

I'll be going now.

Your primordial spirit is on fire!

What's going on?

The firewood has all burned up,

but she's unharmed.

It seems her resurrection

is no coincidence.

In this world, only the War Demons

have such a powerful bloodline.

It's said they come from the Divine Realm,

and were once divine beings.

They need to awaken their bloodline

between life and death,

to achieve the perfect War Demon form.

For them, death

is merely a form of cultivation.

If she really is a War Demon,

why would she save you?

I wouldn't have died without her anyway.

Truly a headache-inducing situation.

Then I'll go bury her.

Wait.

How do you feel?

Seems like I'm fine now.

It's alright, it's alright.

Being burnt alive

would be such a disgrace.

Once this matter is settled,

you must diligently practice

and toughen up your physical body.

No divine body

is as weak as yours.

Without your primordial spirit,

you're just like a mortal.

It was just an accident.

It's okay.

I'm a deity after all.

Since I could become a god,

I must have pretty good luck.

You are being superfluous.

She's already dead.

Is this really necessary?

I... I...

What's happening to me?

It must be your physical body

getting into trouble in the mortal realm again.

Quickly, return your primordial spirit.

[Liujiao Palace]

It's me, it's me, it's me.

Do you want to kill me again?

Coming, coming.

Here, drink this medicine.

Drink it.

Thank you.

You're not dead.

Yes, I'm not dead.

Still alive.

Are you disappointed?

Don't say that.

Since you died.

Yuanzhong was heartbroken.

He couldn't eat or drink.

He didn't sleep all night.

Really?

Really.

And about last night,

you can't blame Yuan Zhong.

You came back in such a furtive manner,

like a thief.

You happened to run into Yuanzhong.

If it were me,

I would have killed you as well.

Then why did you

seal me in ice?

It's...

It's because...

Ice burial.

Yes.

It's our Youhu Clan's

highest-level funeral.

Only those of noble status

can be buried this way.

We couldn't bear to part with you,

and couldn't save you,

so we sealed you

in that ice lake.

to preserve your youth

and keep your body from decay.

When we miss you occasionally,

we can still go and visit you.

I was wrong yesterday.

I shouldn't have acted rashly.

I apologize to you.

Never mind.

It's good that you know your mistake.

However,

your seal has been broken.

The power of the Divine Hand is not to be underestimated.

You can't use it recklessly anymore.

Yes.

The Divine Hand's power is too strong.

So there's one thing I don't understand.

What?

Why are you still alive?

Zifei and I

have clearly checked.

Your heart meridian was severed, and there was no sign of life.

That's why we buried you.

Then why are you still alive?

Well...

There's something you don't know.

I'm uniquely gifted.

My heart is on the right side.

So even

Elder Dingxu's strike

didn't hit the vital spot.

Dingxu didn't hit a vital spot,

and neither did I?

Under the strike of the Divine Hand,

not to mention having your heart on the right side,

even if your entire body was made of hearts,

you would be dead for sure.

I've practiced the art of feigning death since childhood.

I'm able to preserve life by feigning death.

And also,

I once accidentally ate

a divine fruit that fell from the sky.

After eating it, I slept for a long time.

When I woke up again,

I possessed infinite power.

My body also became indestructible.

Anything else?

Yes.

I often have dreams from the deities.

They often appear in my dreams,

blessing me

and promise to protect me for life.

They say they'll cure all my illnesses

and grant me longevity.

Why am I not dead,

you seem quite unhappy about it.

Have you been hoping for my death?

I'm just being curious, that's all.

Anyway,

I'm glad you're alright.

You must be hungry.

I'm not hungry.

You haven't eaten for days.

How can you not be hungry?

Go freshen up first.

I'll have some food sent over.

High Priest,

you're so kind to me.

You really are a good person.

No need to be polite.

After all, you got into this trouble

because you were trying to save me.

Go on then.

How is it?

She's gone back to her room.

She's meditating and resting.

Yuanzhong, you were so right.

This woman is too mysterious.

Even the Divine Left Hand couldn't kill her.

Could she be from the War Demon royal family?

Although she's formidable,

at least she's not very smart.

So what's our next move?

Let's go.

Go?

Didn't you want to find Kaishan?

Let's leave right now.

We'll go far away

and leave this trouble to Dingxu.

Alright.

[Youhu]

Greetings, High Priest.

Mr. Tanghua,

The High Priest just left the mountain.

The High Priest has left?

All by himself?

The attendant Zifei from the Liujiao Palace

went with him.

I see.

Young Master,

Where did the High Priest go?

Zifei is the weapon spirit of the Divine Left Hand.

Besides him,

there are four other weapon spirits

that were sealed away with Yuanzhong back then.

They're just scattered in different places.

I guess Yuanzhong has gone to find

those four weapon spirits.

What should we do then?

Should we follow them?

I'll go.

You stay on the mountain and keep an eye on Dingxu.

Be ready to heed my call at any time.

Yes.

Grand Elder,

The High Priest left the mountain.

Where is he going?

I'm not sure.

It's just him and Zifei.

They're carrying a big bundle.

It looks like they're leaving for good.

Grand Elder,

don't you find this suspicious?

Even if the War Demon is still alive,

they shouldn't have been able to

target you so precisely.

And the seal has been broken.

yet he left so quietly.

Don't you find it strange?

Indeed.

It's very strange.

High Priest.

High Priest, are you in there?

Where did he go?

Stop staring. You might attract something else.

Yuanzhong.

Here...

She comes...

Yuanzhong, wait for me!

Yuanzhong, wait for me!

Let's split up.

Meet at the ferry dock.

Okay.

Where are you going?

Didn't we agree?

No matter where you go,

I'd stay by your side.

How could you do this?

You just left

without even saying a word.

I don't blame you.

But now,

where are we going?

Did you never

intend to bring me along?

Are you doubting me?

You know exactly what's going on,

Why pretend to be clueless?

What do I know?

Still pretending.

A mere spy from the War Demon Clan

dares to infiltrate my inner circle.

What a joke.

When I wiped out your entire clan back then,

you didn't even know where you were.

If you want to scheme against me,

you'll have to wait a long time.

I'm not from the War Demon Clan.

Is that so?

You could be a bit more sincere.

Are you from Wushan?

From Laofeng?

Or from Hemo?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Then tell me,

where are you from?

I have two answers.

But I can't tell you

one of them.

Isn't it the true one

that you can't tell me?

This is too much.

I can't fly.

Well, that's just great.

Why are you back again?

I just don't understand.

Is the mortal world so dangerous

that it makes a dignified fifth-rank deity

die over and over again?

I'm afraid of backlash,

so I dare not use my divine power.

I Relied only on craftsmanship and martial skills,

that's why his sneak attack succeeded.

But this will absolutely be the last time.

I think we should just forget it.

Let him fend for himself.

He won't live much longer anyway.

We can retrieve the Divine Hand after he dies.

Why go to such great lengths?

If you die a few more times like this,

I'm afraid your divine source will collapse directly,

and you'll vanish into thin air.

No way.

He killed me twice.

Twice, do you understand?

So what?

So I don't know if he's

a good person or a bad person.

If he's a bad person,

I'll kill him immediately and take back the hand.

But if he's a good person,

I'd have to stay by his side

for a lifetime,

until he dies and I can retrieve the Divine Hand,

So that I can fulfill my promise.

What's the point?

Why bother?

The deity was right.

I am a sinner.

As the clan leader,

I still can't comprehend the great way

to achieve the perfect War Demon body.

If my father were still here,

our War Ghost Clan

wouldn't be in this situation today.

Clan leader,

please don't...

In the past,

the High Priest had Divine Hand.

and we couldn't do anything against him.

But now,

the deity has bestowed upon me a divine weapon.

With this god-slaying dagger,

even if it costs me my life,

I will kill him.

Where are you going?

Go back and tell the clan leader

that I, Qian Lin,

will take the head of

the High Priest for her.

As long as she agrees to let me take my mother away.

Come on,

give me that.

Stubborn and unrepentant.

You can't escape, you know.

Come back with me

to ask for forgiveness from the clan leader.

Ask for forgiveness?

Asking for forgiveness won't save my life.

Besides, this kind of life,

I've had enough of it.

Let the head of the high priest

of the Fox Clan

help reunite my family.

Stop talking nonsense and give me the item quickly.

Or don't blame me for being impolite.

Stop!

Are you alright?

I'm fine, Captain.

May I ask you all,

how to get to Hulukou?

I wish to sail to Hulukou,

but encountered this place on the way.

The sandstorm was too strong,

and I lost my way.

If you know the way,

I hope you could kindly help.

Go south for twenty li,

and you'll see an oasis.

Pass through the oasis and go upstream,

it's only five li more,

and you'll see a riverbank.

[Du He, merchant of human race]

That's Hulukou.

I thought

I had to keep going west.

Thank you very much.

You're welcome, sir.

When traveling,

helping others is helping yourself.

That's well said.

Farewell.

Please wait, sir.

Here, have some water first.

Judging by your attire,

you don't seem to be from around here.

May I ask your name?

My surname is Yuan,

I'm from Pingzhou.

Oh, so you're Young Master Yuan.

Pingzhou is indeed quite far.

Yuan from 'yuanbao'.

So this is how you've come all this way.

Yes, indeed.

The journey is difficult.

Be extra careful as you travel alone.

Thank you.

Farewell.

Farewell.

Yuanzhong.

I've been waiting for you for a long time.

You've finally arrived.

I lost my way midway.

I took quite a few wrong turns.

Getting lost?

Your bad luck has begun?

It seems so.

Where's Ji Tanyin?

I shook her off.

The ones at the back, keep up!

Young Master Yuan,

here we are again.

Had I known you were also taking this tower ship,

I should have traveled with you.

Please.

Please.

You two,

quickly load these onto the ship.

Okay.

Be gentle with the cargo, everyone.

Okay, okay.

Young man,

[Manager Cao of human race]

young man.

The river here has dried up.

How can we sail?

Young Master Yuan, you may not know,

this tower ship

doesn't travel on water.

Set sail!

This ship is actually flying!

Is it your first time

to ride a tower ship?

Over the years,

our Human Clan craftsmanship has greatly improved.

Riding the clouds and mist,

flying in the sky and burrowing underground

are no longer exclusive to

the Youhu Clan immortals.

Indeed.

Truly extraordinary.

Manager Cao,

you're being too kind.

We don't even know who this person is,

yet you saved him.

Since we encountered him,

how could we just leave him there?

Look at how young he is.

If something were to happen to him,

what would we do?

What's wrong?

This...

The wound is healing by itself.

Yes, I saw it with my own eyes.

Such a long gash,

healed in an instant.

Young Mistress Dai,

you didn't make it to this ship after all.

Sir,

what is it?

Sir, to report,

it seems a War Demon has snuck aboard.

on our ship.

Where did this War Demon come from?

How was their identity confirmed?

Sir,

when I was at Hulukou,

I found

a severely injured, unconscious young man.

Feeling pity for him,

I brought him back with us.

When the doctor was treating him,

We found him.

His wounds healed rapidly.

We arrived a step too late.

He injured one of our boatmen

and managed to escape.

Sir,

the descendant of Youhu Clan

seems to be true.

The War Demon is still alive.

What should we do?

Search the ship.

Find him for me.

Yes, sir.

This tower ship cost a fortune to build.

It's lavishly decorated,

with all amenities for eating, drinking, and entertainment.

It's essentially

a small flying town.

In this world, only

we are capable of such feats,

the craftsmanship of Human Clan.

No matter how impressive our craftsmanship is,

it can't compare to

the magic of immortals.

This tower ship used to burn coal,

constantly emitting black smoke,

and it would fly erratically, up and down.

That was quite frightening.

Since switching to crystal stones

and using spirit-gathering chambers for propulsion, it's been much better.

It's clean and quiet,

but most importantly, it flies smoothly,

giving passengers peace of mind.

Make way, make way!

What's going on?

I heard there's a criminal on board.

They're searching everywhere.

When I came by,

they had already searched the lower cabins.

Young Master Yuan,

I have matters to attend to. I'll take my leave now.

They're searching for a criminal on the ship.

Why is he so nervous?

Do you know that humans have a weapon

called 'flying fire'?

It's made from sulfur and other materials.

Though small, it can split mountains and crack rocks.

Its power is extraordinary.

Yes,

humans have been researching craftsmanship for years,

and indeed have created many

weapons for siege warfare.

Tell me,

if we use that flying fire to blow up the spirit gathering chamber,

would this tower ship

fall from the sky?

What do you mean?

Yuanzhong,

it seems Ji Tanyin is indeed the War Demon.

You're in trouble.

Sir,

what's the situation?

Who are the guards on the tower ship looking for?

A young man,

about seventeen or eighteen years old.

It shouldn't have anything to do with us.

Have the guards searched here?

They just came by,

but I've already

managed to fob them off.

Can you ensure that they

won't come back?

You said

that hiding things here would be absolutely safe.

If someone discovers it,

all will be lost.

What should we do now?

Leave the barrel to divert attention,

but move the flying fire immediately.

Alright.

Wait.

What's wrong?

A Xue.

Why aren't you serving in the cabin?

Are you slacking off again?

Be careful not to get caught by the supervisor.

They might dock your pay.

I'm not slacking off at all.

I've been in the kitchen,

peeling beans all day.

Alright.

Hello.
