Therefore, Yu Ji decided to take advantage of this moment, when Heaven allowed it, to completely resurrect Xiang Yu.
As she spoke, Yu Ji began to dance.
Since ancient times, people have only known that Yu Ji was Xiang Yu's wife and his weakness, but who knows about her formidable strength?
In terms of cultivation, she is a genuine sixth-order Celestial Immortal! Add to that the torment she endured day and night for the past twenty thousand years, and once Xiang Yu is fully resurrected, she will at least be a half-step seventh-order cultivator! Returning to her sect, and with some fortuitous encounters, becoming a seventh-order Dao Lord will be within her grasp.
In terms of physique, Yu Ji was also a born Yuanling body, and one of the highest-level special physiques below the innate deities. She was naturally compatible with all spiritual energy and elements, and close to all the Great Dao.
If Yu Ji so desired, she could easily achieve oneness with nature and merge with the Dao. Cultivation would be completely effortless. It was precisely for this reason that her master, Nanzi, accepted her as a disciple.
"Today, let me emulate the sages and dance to move the heavens!" Yu Ji said confidently, looking at the box in front of her.
You must understand that with her physique, she can unleash boundless power during sacrifices. While others might only achieve a 50% effect when offering sacrifices to the heavens, she can achieve at least a 100% effect.
On the altar, which was neither very large nor very small, Yu Ji danced and twirled incessantly, her wide sleeves fluttering in the wind.
At the same time, his aura was also constantly increasing. Initially, he was only a third-tier Yang God, but now he had reached the fourth-tier Human Immortal. Moreover, it seemed that he had no intention of stopping and was still growing.
As she danced, a pale blue light appeared on the altar. Upon seeing this, Yu Ji smiled. At this point, the matter was practically a success; even the heavens had taken notice.
The next step is to offer sacrifices and make a wish. As long as there are enough sacrifices, any wish can be granted.
"I wish for Brother Yu's return, for his complete resurrection!" Yu Ji said devoutly, gazing at the azure light above the altar.
Upon hearing this, Yu Ji's words seemed to have touched something. The surrounding spiritual energy rapidly churned and boiled.
Then, the azure light transformed into a divine eye. As soon as it appeared, it glared angrily at Yu Ji.
Seeing this, Yu Ji couldn't help but sigh. Back then, Brother Xiang was far too arrogant and ambitious. When tricked, he actually dared to plot against the very heavens. The result was obvious: the war to destroy the heavens was, of course, a failure.
Although he was later punished, torn apart by five horses and imprisoned in five special places for 20,000 years, this does not mean that Heaven had no grievances against Xiang Yu.
Although Heaven allowed Xiang Yu to be resurrected at this time in order to resist the invasion of other worlds, allowing his resurrection is not contradictory to making things difficult for him.
"This humble woman is willing to offer up countless offerings of incense from the past twenty thousand years!" With that, all the power of incense and faith accumulated by the Temple of War over the past twenty thousand years entered the Eye of Heaven.
Then, the heavens, having received many benefits, finally stopped being so stern. At the same time, a golden light shone forth.
As the light entered, the box tore open. Then, the golden light transformed into countless years of memories and entered Xiang Yu's mind.
From being born with extraordinary signs at the time of the impending demise of the Chu Kingdom, to achieving fame at a young age, confronting the First Emperor head-on at the Battle of Bolangsha, to burning his boats and annihilating the main force of the Qin army, to proclaiming himself King of Chu and dividing the land among himself!
Memories flashed vividly through Xiang Yu's mind, and slowly, his eyes, which had been calm and devoid of any emotion, began to show various emotional fluctuations.
However, Yu Ji was not satisfied. Because at this time, Xiang Yu had not fully resurrected; his true spirit was gone, leaving only memories. What kind of man was he?
At most, he's just a nobody with Xiang Yu's memories, a far cry from the great hero she admires!
Then, she took out another treasure. This item was a mirror. Yu Ji stroked the mirror, feeling a pang of reluctance and heartache. However, in the next instant, she returned to normal.
"This mirror is a relic passed down through my Xiu family in this world. It contains the Xiu family's fortune accumulated over millions of years. Today, I will offer it as a sacrifice to the heavens, in order to bring back the true spirit!" Yu Ji said firmly.
As soon as he finished speaking, visible purple light condensed into an identical mirror, which immediately entered the Eye of Heaven.
At the same time, the mirror in Yu Ji's hand let out a mournful cry and then completely lost its luster. It then circled Yu Ji three times before vanishing entirely.
Yu Ji knew that this not only meant the disappearance of the Xiu family's millions of years of accumulation, but also the loss of the Xiu family's position as head of the family.
From now on, the head of the Xiu family in this world will have to rely on his own efforts to succeed, almost starting all over again! But in today's world, where is there any chance to start over?
The Xiu family was already inherently weak, and now its resources have been completely exhausted. In other words, it is very likely that the Xiu family in this realm will be wiped out.
Having personally destroyed her own lineage, it was impossible for Yu Ji not to be heartbroken. However, for the sake of resurrecting Xiang Yu, the loss was just that—a loss. Whatever the consequences might be in the future, she could simply bear them alone.
All I can say is that women in love are absolutely crazy!
However, the Xiu family's millions of years of accumulation yielded immediate results. In the next instant, a river of destiny appeared out of thin air. Then, a tall figure emerged directly from the river!
("I have been imprisoned for ten thousand years and banished from my homeland. Now you dare to trespass into my territory? You are courting death!" Of course, Xiang Yu would never say such a thing.)

Chapter 69: Haha, Tianxia, I'm back!
"Hahaha, Yu Ji, I'm back!"
"Liu Bang, you little brat! I, Xiang Yu, am back!"
"Tianxia, I'm back!"
As soon as he appeared, Xiang Yu roared three times, the sound carrying for thousands of miles, and there was no place in the entire cave that could not hear it.
The moment the true spirit appeared, it entered the lonely head. The next instant, Xiang Yu opened his eyes, and this time, a strange change occurred in them.
What was originally just a single pupil has now manifested as two. This is one of Xiang Yu's bloodline supernatural abilities—double pupils!
The last person to possess such a phenomenon was Emperor Shun. However, Emperor Shun was born with double pupils, while Xiang Yu's were acquired through cultivation. As for the specific effects, they were incredibly miraculous.
"Yu Ji, I'm back! It's been 20,000 years! I'm back again!" Xiang Yu said excitedly as he looked at Yu Ji beside him.
This time, his eyes were full of tenderness. Gone was the domineering and boldness he had displayed earlier; instead, they were brimming with affection. Someone who didn't know better might have mistaken him for a pervert on the train.
Twenty thousand years ago, although he died, Xiang Yu didn't regret it in general. Defeat is defeat, there's nothing more to say. Even though Liu Bang brought in outside help and used some tricks, he still lost.
Therefore, in Xiang Yu's view, there was nothing to say. There was nothing to regret. Of course, the only one he felt sorry for was Yu Ji.
Twenty thousand years of waiting, twenty thousand years of torment—it's not an easy journey. Even those caught in the river of fate, drifting with the current, suffer greatly. So, what about Yu Ji, living in the main world? Wouldn't she suffer even more?
