In front of them.
The Tomb River went deeper into the fog, the surrounding trees and grassy banks also followed it.
As the fog enveloped them, the scenery around them slowly faded away.
The two of them stood still to observe.
"Is this the place?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The fog slowly turned into a wall that connected heaven and earth, blocking their vision and inner sight.
— — they had no idea what was behind the fog.
The Delimitation sword flew around a bit, muttering: 「 This fog … is actually a Phase World, a world created from the power of my sword hilt, how strange — — 」
"Strange about what?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
「 Who exactly was it that was able to activate the Phase Thaumaturgy of my sword hilt without my permission? 」 the Delimitation sword was confused.
Bali glanced at the flying sword and couldn't help but ask: "You don't even know that your weakness has been used by someone else?"
The Delimitation sword shook a bit and loudly replied: 「 There are countless strange and wondrous abilities in the void, what does a diarrhea brat like you know!? 」
Barley couldn't keep his expression any longer. He cracked his knuckles, raised his head, and said, "These fists of mine have beaten up countless ability users, as well as killed all kinds of strange fellows. What I know might not necessarily be any less than what you know."
The Delimitation sword coldly laughed: 「 Those in power use their brains, criminals use their blades, women use guns, villains use daggers, and do you know what kind of people use their fists — — - the manic children under the age of 8, crying and getting beaten every day 」
Bali raised his eyebrows, about to curse out loud, but was stopped by Gu Qing Shan.
"Forget it, we're on the same side, what's the point of arguing? No matter what, we're going in to take a look" Gu Qing Shan pulled Bali to one side and told him: "I feel like something isn't right, the situation here definitely isn't as simple as it seems, we need to prepare a common strategy before we go in"
"What do you feel is wrong?" Bali asked.
"Earlier, the fake sword spirit took out a handful of sand specifically used to kill weapon spirits and told me to go to the Wraith realm to kill the Delimitation sword's weapon spirit" Gu Qing Shan recalled.
「 — — But you're a smart person, you wouldn't be so reckless 」 the Delimitation sword flew over and casually said.
"That's right, the thing that caught my attention was that handful of sand. It's truly powerful and extremely rare, normal people wouldn't be able to get their hands on something like that — — I'm afraid that the fake sword spirit might have even more items of similar power" Gu Qing Shan commented.
Bali became serious and asked, "What do we do now?"
Gu Qing Shan was about to say something when something unexpected happened.
The mist surged forward and instantly enveloped the two of them.
In the next instant, the world spun.
Gu Qing Shan suddenly found herself standing on solid ground.
The surrounding sea of clouds was boundless, and a dense fog shrouded the world. It was impossible to see anything clearly.
"Where is this?" Bali asked.
"I don't know" Gu Qing Shan replied.
「 It's the world inside the sword hilt — — it's been modified! 」 the Delimitation sword replied.
They looked in the same direction at the same time.
Only to see layers upon layers of black fog converging to form the shape of a wraith hovering in the sky.
— — the fake sword spirit!
"It's you" Gu Qing Shan said.
「 The sand I gave you, why didn't you use it? 」 the wraith stared closely at Gu Qing Shan and asked.
"When the Samsara was rebooted, the sand in my hand was confiscated" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The wraith looked at the Delimitation sword and sighed: 「 Still couldn't get rid of you, how regretful … 」
「 Even if you get rid of me, you won't be able to become a sword spirit 」 the Delimitation sword replied.
「 I want to try 」 the wraith said.
It turned around and flew backwards, its figure dispersing into nothingness in midair.
"It ran away?" Bali was surprised.
"I'm afraid it won't be that simple" Gu Qing Shan replied.
They both looked around, only to see that the fog was slowly dispersing.
A gust of wind began to blow.
The wind howled.
Everything slowly became clear.
— — -so this place was actually the peak of a mountain.
"Look!" Bali shouted.
Gu Qing Shan looked around, only to see countless monsters stretching from the foot of the mountain to the end of their vision.
These monsters exuded an aura of destruction.
"They're all apocalyptic monsters — — there are too many of them" Gu Qing Shan scowled.
He turned to ask the Delimitation sword: "How did that guy control so many apocalyptic monsters?"
"No, he didn't control the monsters, he simply placed us in this place filled with apocalyptic monsters, wanting us to die here" the Delimitation sword replied.
More and more monsters noticed the commotion at the top of the mountain.
They became rowdy and began to run towards the top of the mountain.
Bali watched for a while, then asked in a low voice: "Your plan?"
Gu Qing Shan pondered: "Pass off fish eyes as pearls"
He quickly sent his voice to Bali.
Hearing that, Bali laughed:
"Shroud becoming the King of War, I've always felt a bit irritated, but now I finally have a chance to surpass him"
Standing at the edge of the cliff, he abruptly leapt forward and landed on the ground.
Boom!
The ground trembled as the sound of impact resounded in every direction.
Bali stood up from the ground, now clad in a set of sturdy armor and shouted: "Attack with me!"
He charged into the horde of monsters, unleashing a flurry of punches that sent the apocalyptic monsters flying like meteors in the sky.
12 metal soldiers appeared next to him.
Four of them wielded tower shields in their hands, constantly blocking long-range attacks for Bali.
Another four soldiers wielded machine guns that spat out intense flames to assist Bali in his attacks.
Another three soldiers wielded cold weapons, standing in three different directions to protect Bali.
Another soldier slowly faded into the void of space. Every time he chanted an incantation, a holy glow would appear around Bali's body.
Bali continued to charge forward until he was stopped by a barrier of several hundred apocalyptic monsters.
"Kill him!"
All the monsters roared in unison.
An overwhelming barrage of destructive spells flew into the sky, converged into a mass of light that could destroy everything, and crashed down.
Bali was hit.
Almost in the blink of an eye, all the metal soldiers around him had been destroyed.
The ground was pierced through, forming a bottomless crater.
"Hoh … ahahahaha! You want to kill me? "
Bali hovered in the air, laughing maniacally.
His entire body was covered in shocking wounds, but he didn't show any signs of death.
— — -in his battle state, he was undying.
His figure flashed as he once again charged into the horde of monsters, unleashing over a thousand punches in the blink of an eye.
After a series of consecutive attacks, with him as the center, the severed limbs of the monsters mixed with their blood to form a crimson ring.
A golden light appeared from the void of space and lightly fell on his body.
In an instant — —
The silver armor on his body turned golden.
Bali was surprised, then suddenly laughed:
"Ahahaha, I've finally become a King of War!"
"Shroud you old bastard, next time we play war chess, I'm going to torture you to death!"
Surrounded by countless monsters, his figure slowly became blurry.
— — -he had disappeared.
The monsters rushed forward and looked around, but they couldn't find any trace of him.
They paused, then suddenly remembered that there was another person there.
— — -there was another person on top of the mountain!
Roar!
The monsters roared in agitation and charged up the mountain as quickly as they could.
The peak of the mountain was empty.
No one.
Not a single person.
A monster with blade-like wings roared in anger. It waved its sharp claws and tore off the head of another monster beside it.
The monsters couldn't find the person who was originally standing here, so they could only begrudgingly retreat.
Time slowly passed.
About an hour later.
The monster with blade-like wings escaped from the horde of apocalyptic monsters.
After a few hours, it passed through a desolate desert with no one around.
A few buildings could be seen in front of it.
The monster had a contemplative look in its eyes and muttered: 「 Hide well 」
A faint sound of a sword came from the void of space next to it.
The monster silently approached those buildings.
…
The human realm.
The brothel.
"Shifu, these are the 36 baskets of desserts I just made, please enjoy, I'm going to open the door" Qin Xiaolou nodded and bowed.
"Hm, go ahead" Xie Dao Ling replied.
As Qin Xiaolou was about to leave, Xie Dao Ling suddenly stood up.
"Shifu, what's the matter?" Qin Xiaolou asked.
"Finally … he's here" Xie Dao Ling muttered.
"He's here? Who? "Qin Xiaolou only asked that one sentence before realizing.
He rushed down the stairs and quickly made his way to the brothel's entrance.
Only to see three people standing at the entrance.
Two beautiful women were following behind a young girl.
"My two junior sisters, and — — Shifu!"
Qin Xiao Lou shouted, his voice carrying a hint of joy and sobbing.
He jumped forward, kneeled in front of the young girl and kowtowed: "Shifu, I miss you so much, sob sob sob sob"
He started crying, his tears mixed with his snot.
The young girl smiled warmly, observed him, then suddenly spoke in surprise: "Strange, how did you break through? This doesn't seem like your usual style "
The two girls behind her also had surprised looks on their faces.
Qin Xiaolou instinctively clamped his thighs together and puffed out his chest: "Shifu, don't look down on me, I've always been working very hard"
"That can't be right, I couldn't make you cultivate so desperately even with a whip, something must have happened"
The young girl shook her head.
When she was about to ask further, she sensed something and looked past Qin Xiaolou.
A woman was standing not too far away, quietly watching this scene.
"Another Shifu! Could it be a clone? "Wan Er was surprised.
"No, if it was Shifu's clone, Shifu wouldn't have gone through so much trouble to find us" Qing Rou appeared cautious.
"It's fine, she really is me" the young girl said.
"That's right, this day has finally come" Xie Dao Ling muttered.
She walked in front of the young girl and asked: "Will I be the main body, or will you be the body?"
The young girl replied: "Do you think I, Xie Dao Ling, will still care about the past?"
"That's true, then you'll be the main body"
The two of them walked towards each other, fused together, and slowly turned into one person.
"Shifu?" Qin Xiaolou worriedly asked.
"It's fine, my soul has only just been completed, I'm no longer shackled, no longer bound by anything"
Saying so, the young girl's body slowly changed and grew.
She finally stopped in the form of a young girl.
An indescribable presence exuded from her body, spreading to the entire world.
