As the night deepened, the huge full moon in the sky of the Forbidden City finally disappeared.
Tomorrow morning, the news of the second bright moon appearing in the sky of the Forbidden City would definitely become the headline.
Many experts were summoned overnight to study the strange phenomenon of the second full moon in the sky.
"Strange, the big celebrity Brother Wang didn't do anything big recently to grab the headlines, so why did such a phenomenon appear in the sky of the Forbidden City? Why did he dominate the headlines? "Many residents in the vicinity of the Forbidden City were puzzled.
In addition to the experts, many experts were also awakened overnight.
Their task was to use their brains and come up with a reasonable explanation. Tomorrow morning, they would explain the phenomenon of the second full moon in the sky to all the people in front of the TV.
Whether the experts wanted to explain it from the perspective of optics, energetics, gravity, or illusion, they had to give the people in front of the TV a reasonable explanation the next morning. They had to try their best not to make the ordinary citizens feel uneasy. This was the task of the experts.
…
…
In the meantime, Song Shuhang had once again entered his Inner World.
Venerable White accompanied him just in case.
'Virtuous Buddhist Sabersman' Little Cai also entered his Inner World.
Song Shuhang couldn't teach her the soul ferrying technique for the time being. Therefore, before learning Song Shuhang's soul ferrying technique, it would be better to borrow the original copy of the (Diary of an Ascetic Senior Monk) from the western monk and give it to Little Cai along with the (Ksitigarbha's Soul Ferrying Scripture) so that she could comprehend the soul ferrying technique.
Now, Song Shuhang brought Little Cai into his Inner World in order to let her experience the soul ferrying process at a close distance.
In the Inner World, under Song Shuhang's command, the small island extended countless roots and absorbed another tenth of the ball of liquid metal.
Afterward, the ball of liquid metal was transferred from the primal chaos to the small island.
Afterward, Song Shuhang used the soul ferrying technique and approached the ball of liquid metal step by step.
When the ball of liquid metal instinctively wanted to avoid the soul ferrying technique, the virtuous lamia behind Song Shuhang activated. She stretched out her hand and grabbed the ball of liquid metal.
Just like the last time, after catching it, the virtuous lamia slapped it against her chest. From this position, she could quickly absorb all of the light of virtue from the liquid metal ball.
The steps involved were more complicated, but not a single step was missing.
If he didn't use the Soul Ferrying Technique to approach the ball of liquid metal, it wouldn't instinctively dodge, and the virtuous lamia behind Song Shuhang wouldn't take the initiative to catch it.
Song Shuhang tried to order the virtuous lamia to capture the ball of liquid metal and 'absorb' its power of virtue, but the result was that the virtuous lamia simply grabbed the ball of liquid metal and remained motionless …
…
…
After losing the power of virtue, the ball of liquid metal floated in the air above the island, emitting an evil aura.
[Do you desire power?] It was that classic temptation again.
But this time, Song Shuhang would not answer this stupid question.
Last time, he couldn't help but say, "I desire power," and the metal nai that the ball of liquid metal transformed into was simply too glaring.
Just as Song Shuhang was about to let the Inner World transfer the ball of liquid metal and everyone else to the main world …
Little Cai couldn't help but mutter in a low voice, "No, I desire power!"
"…" Song Shuhang.
"…" Venerable White.
"…" Ye Si.
Why did Little Cai know about this joke as well? Wouldn't it be better for you to be a monster bird?!
In the next moment, the 'liquid metal ball' that was one-tenth the size of the ball transformed into a lifelike metal doll.
Afterward, the emotionless voice sounded again. "As you wish, this is the nai you desire! Open your mind and stretch out your hand to grab me. Afterward, you will be able to obtain the nai you desire. Fuse with me, and you will be able to obtain an infinite amount of nai. "
"…" Little Cai.
This line didn't change even a single word! This AI was probably an artificial AI from decades ago.
"Teleport, the core teleported us out," Song Shuhang shouted.
He couldn't let it hurt his eyes anymore. It was better to quickly get rid of the metal nai.
…
…
In the next moment, everyone in Song Shuhang's group was teleported to the main world.
Afterward, the power of the Heavenly Tribulation appeared as expected and directly turned one-tenth of the ball of liquid metal into slag, leaving only a small piece of metal.
Song Shuhang used the secret appraisal technique, and after confirming that the piece of metal was safe, he obtained another piece of [Mutant Tribulation Black Gold].
Venerable White said, "It seems that the whole process was not dangerous. The 'ball of liquid metal' in your Inner World doesn't have intelligence. Do you want to continue? "
"Yes, I want to continue and get rid of the ball of liquid metal in my body in one go. If I leave it in my Inner World, I won't be able to eat or sleep well, "Song Shuhang replied.
"Alright, let's continue." Venerable White smiled.
×××××
After repeating the process ten times, the last part of the ball of liquid metal was finally dealt with. Under the control of the nucleus, it was teleported to the main world.
While facing the last part of the ball of liquid metal, Song Shuhang, Ye Si, and Venerable White were on high alert.
If there was something hidden inside the ball of liquid metal, it was most likely this part of its body.
"Boom ~"
In the air, the power of the Heavenly Tribulation appeared once again, turning the last part of the ball of liquid metal into slag.
Just like the previous nine times, the ball of liquid metal was reduced to ashes, leaving only a small piece of metal behind.
"It's over," Ye Si said.
Song Shuhang nodded, and carefully used the secret appraisal technique on the piece of metal.
[Mutant Tribulation Black Gold, born after experiencing the tribulation of the path. It's a rare and precious forging material. It was once used as a sacrifice for the will of the ruler of the Netherworld Realm to descend into the main world. Now that the will of the ruler of the Netherworld Realm has been thoroughly erased, the black gold underwent a strange change.]
The results of the appraisal didn't change.
Song Shuhang heaved a sigh of relief, and put away the tenth piece of mutant black gold, preparing to place it in his size-reducing purse.
"Wait a moment, Shuhang." But right at this time, Venerable White suddenly thought of a possibility. "Let me take a look at the mutant black gold first."
"Is there something wrong with them?" Song Shuhang asked out of curiosity. Then, he gave all ten pieces of mutant black gold to Venerable White.
Venerable White took the pieces of mutant black gold and arranged them neatly.
After pondering for a moment, Venerable White put the ten pieces of mutant black gold together, finally forming a square metal plate.
"Just as I expected, they were originally one … there was a profound formation engraved on it, making it a sacrifice for the will of the ruler of the Netherworld Realm to descend into the main world," Venerable White said.
"In that case, Senior White, if you put them together, won't it attract the attention of the ruler of the Netherworld?" Song Shuhang asked worriedly.
"Yes, you guessed correctly. You guys step back a bit. I want to confirm some of my guesses, "Venerable White said with a nod.
Song Shuhang and the others stepped back.
In the next moment, Venerable White's figure started to change. In the end, he changed into an ordinary-looking scholar.
"Eh? Isn't this the appearance of the Scholarly Sage?" Song Shuhang said.
It was the same Scholarly Sage that was born with a monstrous aura, and fought against the heavens, the earth, and other people all his life.
Why did Venerable White change into the appearance of the Sage?
While he was deep in thought, a blurry image flashed on the metal plate of the Dao Tribulation Black Metal. The silhouette of a strange tree appeared in the image.
One end of the tree was aimed at Venerable White, while the other end was aimed at the void.
About two breaths later …
The image changed again, and a pair of metal eyes appeared on the blurry image.
However, because the metal plate was divided into ten pieces, there were also ten cracks on the pattern of the metal eyes, making it look like it had been mosaicked.
It was the [ruler of the Netherworld], the ball of liquid metal.
At the same time, there was a heavy majesty coming from the metal eyes. Fortunately, the image was mosaic, and the majesty of the metal eyes was greatly reduced.
Even so, Little Cai, who was in Song Shuhang's hand, was affected by the heavy pressure and fainted. Her realm was too low, and the willpower attribute was too little.
…
As the ruler of the Netherworld, the ball of liquid metal was restricted and couldn't enter the main world. Even if it used some method to 'sneak' into the main world, it would be 'erased' immediately.
However, while the ruler of the Netherworld couldn't enter the main world, the ordinary demons of the Netherworld weren't restricted.
With that, the ruler of the Netherworld could indirectly establish a connection with the main world through these ordinary demons of the Netherworld.
For example, that strange tree was a demon of the Seventh Stage.
It played the role of a 'relay', and it was connected to the metal plate of the 'Tribulation Black Metal'. Then, it would broadcast the image to the ball of liquid metal in the Netherworld.
In other words, the image that Song Shuhang and the others were seeing was equivalent to watching a video.
…
…
Venerable White assumed the appearance of a Sage and sat cross-legged, exuding the aura of a grandmaster. He was exactly the same as the Scholarly Sage in Song Shuhang's memory.
The metal eyes opened and stared at the Scholarly Sage that Venerable White had transformed into. In the next moment, its eyes widened, and its pupils seemed like they were about to pop out of their sockets.
"Scholarly Sage!" A metallic voice echoed.
The Scholarly Sage that Venerable White had transformed into faintly smiled.
"No, you died long ago. You can't still be alive. Who in the world are you? "the metallic voice said coldly.
As it spoke, the space around it fluctuated. It was as if there was a force that wanted to break through the limits of space and directly attack the Scholarly Sage in front of it.
The Scholarly Sage that Venerable White had transformed into stretched out his right hand, and his fingers made a 'picking a flower' gesture.
"Bang!"
A series of explosions rang out in the air. The space that had been fluctuating completely calmed down after the series of explosions.
The metallic eyes said in a deep voice, "[Explosive Space Compression Secret Technique]."
This secret technique was the Scholarly Sage's unique secret technique, and it had once made it suffer a lot. It specialized in restraining the spatial abilities of Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcenders.
In the past, if a Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcender wanted to approach the Scholarly Sage with the power of space, the Sage would use the [Explosive Space Compression Secret Technique], and ordinary Tribulation Transcenders would have to enjoy a feast of space explosions. Even if they didn't die, they would still be seriously injured.
"Sure enough, it's you … I didn't expect you to still have a resurrection secret technique. Back then, you actually saw me." The metallic eyes kept rolling.
In the next moment, the metallic eyes in the picture shrank and turned into a large ball of liquid metal. "However, since you dared to appear in front of me like this, you're dead! You will suffer the wrath of the heavens! "
The Scholarly Sage that Venerable White had transformed into shook his head slightly, and pointed to the sky. "The current one can't kill me."
"…" The metallic ball said, "His condition has already deteriorated to such an extent? Damn it … "
"Hehe. When he dies, you will also die, "the Scholarly Sage that Venerable White had transformed into said lightly.
The metallic ball coldly said, "You deserve to die!"
But suddenly, it paused. "No, you're not the Scholarly Sage, you're just pretending to be mysterious!"
Seeing that he had been seen through, Venerable White quickly stretched out his hand and separated the metal plate.
The ball of liquid metal in the picture disappeared.
Then, Venerable White changed back into his own appearance, and reached out to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
…
…
Song Shuhang and Ye Si returned to Venerable White's side.
"Senior White, why did you transform into the Scholarly Sage just now? What were you trying to test?" Ye Si asked.
"I just wanted to confirm a guess … This isn't the place to talk. Shuhang, go to your Inner World," Venerable White said.
Song Shuhang opened his Inner World, and pulled Venerable White inside.
The monster bird Little Cai was still unconscious, so Song Shuhang put her aside and told her to rest.
Venerable White said, "I've guessed before that there might be a connection between the Wielder of the Will and the ruler of the Netherworld. In the inheritance that I obtained, there are similar records. However, in the inheritance, the records regarding this part are incomplete, so I don't know much about this matter. "
Song Shuhang immediately remembered the third Wielder of the Will, 'Wielder of the Will Striped Dragon', that he had once seen in the dreamland, as well as' Striped Dragon Two 'in the Netherworld Realm.
"It's very likely that after a Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcender inherits the Will of the Heavens and controls the Wielder of the Will … they will split into two. Then, it controlled both the Wielder of the Will and the Netherworld Realm. Of course, this is just my guess. " Venerable White said, "Moreover, the current Wielder of the Will isn't going to last much longer … after a few thousand or tens of thousands of years, another era of the Wielder of the Will might arrive."
"Senior White, do you want to become the Wielder of the Will?" Song Shuhang asked.
"Hmm, how should I put it … I'm thinking that becoming the Wielder of the Will might be a very fun thing … If I really get the chance to become the Wielder of the Will, will another me appear in the Netherworld Realm? At that time, what will the other me look like? Just thinking about it makes me excited. " Venerable White smiled, and said, "Of course, I'm just thinking about it. I can't become the Wielder of the Will just because I want to. I'm only at the Venerable Realm, and I'm still far from the Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcender Realm."
"…" Song Shuhang.
