The power of Night Bar's swordsmanship was infinitely magnified in front of the powerful but inflexible "immortal master".
These Immortal Masters were still able to survive the siege of dozens of people.
However, in the Night Bar, he was like a chicken or a dog.
They were easily slaughtered with a single slash.
A, B, and C were dumbfounded.
Rho Alpha murmured, "I always knew he was strong.
But I didn't know he was so strong … "
"Boss," Ethane said, "Did you notice that the people Alain killed were all dead?
There is no white light. "
Evening Song nodded. His gaze never left the Night Bar. The teenager stood in the red sea of fire. He was dressed in simple black, and his sleeves were rolled up to his forearms, revealing his exquisite wrist bones.
He casually held the long sword in his hand.
His long hair was illuminated with a strange red color by the light of the fire … The originally cold and aloof young man at this moment actually revealed an indescribable flirtatiousness.
Evening Song suddenly felt an inexplicable fear in his heart.
The distance between him and the young man was clearly less than ten meters, but for some reason, he felt that the distance between them was like a thousand mountains and ten thousand rivers.
It was as if he would disappear from this world the moment he turned around.
"Alain!"
The young man standing in the raging fire seemed to have been awakened from his dream by this voice, and his head tilted to the side.
Before Evening Song could see his expression clearly, he heard a "bang" sound.
The flames suddenly flared up.
The flames, which were originally one meter high, suddenly rose to nearly three meters high.
A scorching aura assaulted his senses.
It would cause one's skin to burn and one's breathing to stagnate.
Evening Song was forced to take a step back as he watched the young man's figure completely engulfed by the sea of fire.
"Alain!" "Alain!"
Amidst the anxious cries of the crowd, a strange scene occurred. The raging fire that stretched for hundreds of meters suddenly seemed to come alive. It began to shrink and change, transforming into various forms. Finally, it rose into the air and spun like a whirlpool in the air.
Only then did they see that the young man was still standing in the same place. They immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Just as they were about to go over, they suddenly heard a clear bird's cry above their heads. They subconsciously looked up and saw that the raging fire in the air had unknowingly turned into the shape of a giant bird. Rho Alpha murmured, "This is … the Divine Phoenix?"
Before he finished his words, the giant Flame Bird Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
"Alain Alain't Alain!"
As Sunset Song cried out in alarm, the Firebird, which had become increasingly slender as it neared Ye Lan, plunged into the young man's glabella. In an instant, the flames that filled the sky rushed into the young man's glabella like swallows returning to their nest. Not a single drop was left behind. The world returned to its tranquil and gloomy state. Only the cool moonlight remained, and the young man dressed in black robes stood quietly under the moonlight.
Everyone looked at the young man under the moonlight. Their hearts were full of shock. Is this young man human? Is he an immortal? Is he a demon?
Before they could figure out what kind of expression they should use to face the young man, the young man's figure dispersed like fireworks, disappearing without a trace under the moonlight.
Only then did Muge rush to the place where the young man had stood. However, there was nothing there. It was empty. There was nothing …
Evening Song only felt his mind go blank. His heart felt like it was being ruthlessly squeezed by a big hand. He couldn't breathe. He stood at the place where the young man disappeared, at a loss.
"Boss!" Suddenly Rho Alpha grabbed his shoulder, "Log off!"
Evening Song looked at Rho Alpha. Rho Alpha hurriedly said, "Boss! Quickly log off, Alain is … "
Yes, log off! Log off!

"Ouch, ouch … Kill me, kill me …"
In the pure white room, the young man lying on the bed was covered in cold sweat. His body was uncontrollably twitching, making intermittent groaning sounds.
The young man with a cold expression pushed open the door and entered. Seeing the situation, he quickly put the bowl aside and grabbed the young man's shoulder, "Lu Feng! Lu Feng! Wake up! "
Lu Feng opened his eyes, sweating profusely. When he saw the young man, he let out a sigh of relief, then smiled bitterly, "Boss, am I very embarrassing? I've already tried my best not to think about it, but as soon as I fall asleep, I still feel pain, just like it's real. "
"It's not just like, it's real," the young man said, "The experts say that your pain is probably not an illusion, but real pain."
Lu Feng was stunned, "But the results of the physical examination …"
The young man said, "There are many things in this world that cannot be detected by instruments."
Lu Feng was absent-minded for a while, then said, "So, it can't be cured?"
The young man was silent.
Lu Feng smiled bitterly, "Hearing this conclusion, I should be happy. At least it proves that I, Lu Feng, am not a coward, not scared to the point of having nightmares every day … But I really can't be happy. If it's a nightmare, I firmly believe that I will overcome it one day. But if it's really some invisible and incurable injury to my soul, if it continues like this, I'd rather die right now."
The young man frowned and scolded, "Lu Feng!"
Lu Feng smiled, and said, "Boss, you don't have to worry. I'm just saying it casually, I definitely won't do anything stupid … I don't want to be laughed at when I die."
The young man sat down beside his bed, and said lightly, "Do you know why I told you to attack the Celestial Masters?"
Lu Feng was slightly stunned, and said, "Boss, didn't you say that as a soldier, we just have to follow orders?" He was scolded badly because he spoke too much.
The young man didn't answer, and said, "Night Bar, the young man who shot you that day, found that the vital signs of those Celestial Masters were almost exactly the same as our existences in the foreign land. We felt that they weren't real people, so we decided to try attacking them.
"That day, your attack allowed us to see their three states. In the beginning, he would be mechanical and rigid, doing repetitive trivial tasks every day, saying almost the exact same words to everyone. When fighting with others, he would expressionlessly use the first move of his swordsmanship to the last move. When he was seriously injured, he would suddenly wake up and have human emotions. He would have the instinct to protect himself, but it was as if he had completely forgotten that he knew martial arts. The last type of person would suddenly become like a cheat in an instant. His swordsmanship would be extraordinary, and he would be able to use immortal arts. He could even harm our souls in the foreign lands. He was the immortal master who captured you … Do you know, before he mutated, Ye Lan suddenly said that something had descended, and he used the word 'descending'. "
Lu Feng's eyes widened, "These things …"
"That's right, they are things, not people." The young man said, "Let's call them puppets for now. After preliminary analysis, these puppets can listen to some simple orders and complete specific tasks, but they are very rigid. This is their usual state. When they are strongly stimulated or their lives are in danger, their original consciousness may be stimulated, and they can barely be considered as the second state. Finally, if the Celestial controlling them is willing, they can descend on them at any time and control their bodies … This is the so-called third state. "
Although Lu Feng was very surprised by what he heard, he still didn't understand why the young man was telling him this, or what was the use of them knowing this?
While he was at a loss, the young man changed the topic, and said, "We have never understood what those Celestial Masters want to do. In the beginning, it seemed to be to take in a few disciples, and let us enter the illusory realm to train ourselves. But later on, we discovered that the foreign land wasn't the illusory realm they said it was, but rather real. Thus, we guessed that their goal might be to get us to help them gather resources for free …
"However, before everyone entered the foreign land, within a few months, they built Reincarnation Halls, altars, potion stores, equipment stores, skill bookstores, and so on in every village in the foreign land. They made such a big fuss, set up such a huge scheme, was it really just to make us their free labor, just for the resources we can find by running around in the foreign land? That's why this explanation is actually very far-fetched, but we really couldn't think of any other possibilities, so we could only think of it this way for now.
"That's why when we found out that these Celestial Masters' existences were almost the same as ours, we felt very uneasy, and that was why we attacked to test them. Afterwards, we found psychologists and microexpressions masters to study the images of these Celestial Masters. Then, they said that these Celestial Masters have a need for us that is even more important than gathering the foreign land's resources and obtaining the high-tech products in our hands.
"What do we have? Is it something that is more important than the foreign land's cultivation resources, more important than our technological achievements, something that is coveted by others? We thought about it, and we were the only ones.
"The psychologists said that when they heard that almost every one of us could use the Yellow Springs Stone to separate our souls from our bodies, they were shocked and excited. What were they excited about? Were they excited that they found so many materials to refine puppets all of a sudden? "
Lu Feng felt a chill run down his spine. "You're saying that they want to use our souls to refine puppets?"
The young man continued, "They used the foreign land to rear us, just like how we rear cows and sheep. They let us level up, train our skills, and collect resources. Just like how we let cows eat grass to grow meat, we let sheep run all over the mountains to make their meat firm and chewy. Before slaughtering them, they can even make use of the waste and let them pull carts and plow the land …"
Lu Feng shivered and said, "Boss, what you said is too scary. This is just a guess …"
The young man said calmly, "It's a guess, but other than that, do you have a better explanation? Just like what Beta Propionate said, unless they are pure good people, this guess is the most reasonable … And whether they are good people or not, aren't you more qualified to answer this question than anyone else? "
Lu Feng did not know what he could say. He could only look at the young man in a daze.
The young man sighed and patted his shoulder. He said softly, "The head of state has already given the order to forcefully awaken everyone from the foreign land, take back the lander, and destroy the Yellow Springs Stone teleportation array built here … I'm saying this to tell you, Lu Feng, that you didn't do something boring and make unnecessary sacrifices because of the whims of the higher-ups."
Lu Feng blinked and suddenly blushed. "Boss, I'm just secretly complaining. You don't have to be so serious, right?"
The young man knew that he was not really complaining, but felt a little embarrassed. He smiled and did not expose him. "Alright, eat something first. Oh, right, there's also good news. "
"What good news?"
"Your attending physician said that your symptoms have been improving for the past three days. So although they can't cure your illness, it can heal on its own."
Lu Feng was stunned. Then, he said angrily, "Boss! You're too wicked. Shouldn't you have said this from the beginning? "
After complaining, he jumped up from the bed energetically. He picked up the bowl and took a bite. Then, he stopped and said, "Boss, do you know how to find Night Bar? I want to thank him. If it weren't for him, I might have been captured and refined into a puppet … That would really be worse than death."
The young man said, "If you want to see him, you can do it now."
"Ah?"
The young man said, "He's lying next to you. He hasn't woken up yet."
"Ah!" Lu Feng exclaimed. "What happened to him? Is he injured? "
The young man shook his head. "No one knows. He's unconscious like you. He's also talking in his sleep. However, from the looks of it, he should be in better condition than you."
Lu Feng was stunned. "Hasn't he still not woken up? Why do you say that his condition is better than mine? "
