The peerless sharpness that almost tore the world apart slashed toward the mountain where Mr. Zhang was.
The mountains and rivers changed color, and the Sword Qi was everywhere. In the face of this terrifying power that did not seem to belong to the human world, Mr. Zhang was fearless. They came from a more noble race and should not be afraid of primitive human beings.
However …
A smile of interest appeared at the corner of his mouth.
— Now, are you still a human being?
He could not get the answer to this question now, but one day, he would ask the other party this question and get the answer he wanted … It would not be long.
"Sun Lang … Is it?" he murmured. "We are both exiles from a foreign land. We will meet again soon."
Then, Mr. Zhang collapsed. He was like a broken porcelain. His skin, which was no different from a real person, cracked with fine lines. Fine silver light came out of his seven orifices and the cracks on his body.
Then, his fragile body turned into fine dust and drifted between heaven and earth. The mysterious spiritual body completed the transfer in an instant, and the remaining huge spiritual power, which had lost control, merged into the mountain in an instant.
— Take it. Take it. This is my last gift to you.
The moment Mr. Zhang disappeared, the Sword Qi that slashed toward him suddenly scattered over the mountain. It split into thousands of invisible Sword Qi and fell like a waterfall. Like several arrow arrays shooting at the same time, thousands of powerful invisible arrows covered the whole mountain. For a moment, the hard stones were broken, and the soil was turned over. The whole mountain was plowed by the invisible Sword Qi, and there was no intact place.
Soon, Sun Lang's figure appeared here. He stepped on the broken mountain and looked around with a frown. "Gone?
Why did he run so fast? "
He seemed to have found something. He reached out and waved his hand. A piece of broken cloth on the ground quickly rose and shot toward him like a flying stone, falling into his palm.
Sun Lang picked up the piece of cloth. It was moon-white in color and looked like the material of an inner garment. He looked around and found the tattered cloth scattered everywhere. "Adult male, medium height, slightly thin. There are footprints here …"
He fell into deep thought.
Even if he took off his cumbersome robe to escape, there was no reason to take off all his clothes and run naked. These pieces of cloth even included the material of his undergarments. In other words, his entire set of clothes had been cut into pieces, and his body should have been cut into pieces. How could there not be a single drop of blood left?
He closed his eyes and raised his hands. The remnant Sword Qi that had descended from the sky and shot in all directions resonated with the soil and gravel.
Immediately after, the wind and the torn robes that were scattered all over the place were swept up by an invisible force and gathered in a certain direction. The wind gathered into a whirlwind, and the torn robes kept spinning around the eye of the whirlwind, as if there were hundreds of invisible hands controlling them. From inside to outside, from the inner clothes to the inner clothes, and then to the outer robes, seven or eight pieces of inner and outer robes were pieced together to form an empty human figure.
He looked like he was standing there alone.
Sun Lang opened his eyes and walked around the human figure pieced together by the torn robes. With every step he took, the resonance of the remnant Sword Qi that had descended from the sky and merged with the grass, trees, earth, and stones became stronger. He sensed the state of the Sword Qi and observed the traces of destruction around him. Then, a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He waved his hand and a sword light shot up into the sky. Immediately, it turned into hundreds of invisible Sword Qi and fell from the sky, shrouding the human figure in the robes.
Stone chips flew and the cloth was torn. The torn robes that had been beaten back to their original shape scattered like butterflies.
"I see."
Sun Lang looked at the restored scene and said indifferently, "They scattered before they were hit by the Sword Qi. Is this suicide?
No, it's too easy. Moreover, humans don't have such a natural and pollution-free method of suicide. "
His expression changed slightly. He reached out and picked up a piece of cloth. He sensed it carefully and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. "This feeling … Ha, this is interesting. It's over, it's over."
Sun Lang seemed to have guessed something. He had a cynical look on his face, but nobody knew who he was mocking.
Then, he looked in the direction of the Bai family's Fort's Jade Sword Garden. "If that's the case, I can guess their plan … But, what's their goal?"
In the direction of the Jade Sword Garden.
Bai Yuwei, who was roaring at the sky and venting his Sword Qi, was extremely violent like a mad tiger. He looked like a ferocious beast that had gone mad. His body emitted an extremely cruel and violent killing intent. His eyes were red, and he had lost all rationality.
Nevertheless, just as he was about to vent his desire to destroy, an enormous mental power flowed through the mountain range under his feet and merged into his body.
His body suddenly shook.
This unowned soul power was so pure that it merged into Bai Yuwei's body and strengthened one of his souls … It was like the most elite of soldiers.
Thus, the battle between the two souls that had lasted for two years finally came to an end. Taking advantage of the fact that Bai Yuwei's soul was recovering from the pain and suffering, the other soul that had been hiding for a long time broke through all of the Golden Radiance Grand Swordmaster's defenses and advanced triumphantly.
The pain in Bai Yuwei's roars gradually subsided. Instead, they were replaced by elation, madness, and murderous intent after being imprisoned for so long.
Suddenly, he roared at the sky. It was as if the entire mountain range in the West River was responding to him. In an instant, an invisible and terrifying energy swept across the entire Bai family's Fort. Everyone's weapons were buzzing and vibrating, and they almost flew out of their hands. Frightened by this terrifying energy, the Bai family members who were trying to escape stopped in their tracks. The Jianghu swordsmen who were advancing triumphantly also stopped attacking.
They listened to the roar that shook the wilderness, and great uneasiness rose in their hearts.
Ji Du, who was running away with the fairy, suddenly stopped and said in a complicated tone, "It … it succeeded …"
The little demoness still had a confused look on her face. "What succeeded?"
The sword spirit did not speak … She was afraid that some thoughts, desires, and even malice would crawl into her soul.
She was born as a human, but by a freak combination of factors, she was living in a lonely and cold place with no warmth and no feelings. It was like being in a cold prison. She did not know how many days and nights she had been tortured to the point that she almost went crazy.
Only when she lost something would she know how precious it was to be a human, and how happy it was to be a human.
Right now, a living example had appeared in front of him … It wasn't even a sword spirit that was transformed from a human, it was a sword spirit that was forged from iron and fire, and was endowed with spirituality. Even so, it was still able to take over a human's body, and possess a human's physique. From then on, it had a completely different fate, life, and … a future.
She was not sure if she could resist this temptation … No, she was almost certain that if there was such an opportunity in front of her, she would do it at any cost.
Xie Wei seemed to feel something. She shivered and was a little uneasy, "Sister Lu …"
Before her voice fell, the little fairy felt her hair stand on end. The next moment, a figure flashed, and an overwhelming momentum roared.
A person stood not far away from her.
His white beard was fluttering, his white hair was messy, and his clothes were shabby. In terms of appearance, he was a very common old man in dire straits.
But the people who saw him would never think so … There were a handful of top people in this world who didn't need external items or disguises to set off their identity. Even if their clothes were tattered like a beggar's, it would still be difficult to hide their true nature.
The little fairy's eyes widened.
The person in front of her, looking at his appearance, was undoubtedly Bai Yuwei, but not like the Bai Yuwei she knew.
In the past ten days, although she had spent a lot of time with Bai Yuwei, the Bai Yuwei she knew was not the invincible Gold Radiance Sword Saint in books and legends. He was just a pitiful old man who was tormented by the memories and pain of the past. He had lost his memory and was no longer elegant. He was muddle-headed all day, either in a daze, sad, or beaten up by Sun Lang.
But now, although Bai Yuwei was still in his shabby clothes and his messy hair and beard, his temperament was different.
Just standing in the same place, an austere aura like a golden spear and armored horse rushed to her face. This was the splendid momentum of a brave warrior on the battlefield. Just by his posture, he could make ordinary people feel discouraged and warriors lose their will.
This was the hero of Tianyuan who shone the world, this was the Gold Radiance Sword Saint who surpassed three generations.
This was what Bai Yuwei should be like.
But …
Xie Wei stared blankly at Bai Yuwei and suddenly cried out, "You … you are not Grandpa Bai!"
"Bai Yuwei" glanced at her. Suddenly, facing this gaze, Xie Wei felt pain on her skin, as if it was constantly being pierced by sharp needles. With a thought, she summoned her demon power and immediately isolated this sharp gaze.
"Bai Yuwei" did not care. He did not even look at Xie Wei. An ant was not worthy of his attention. What he cared about was something else.
He looked at the sword in Xie Wei's hand and said lightly, "You look very strange, but after all, your aptitude is extraordinary. You have the same spiritual body as us. I approve of you.
Time is pressing, so I won't say much. Do you want to be like me? "
Ji Du's sword suddenly trembled.
Then, "Bai Yuwei" said, "Whether you are a human or a demon, inferior creatures are not worthy of our submission. We are noble and free. If you want to be like me, then kill your host and break that ridiculous contract. Then, come with me. I will take you to see my people. They will choose a better body for you …"
Xie Wei was shocked and glared at Bai Yuwei. "What did you do to Grandpa Bai!"
"Bai Yuwei" looked at her coldly. "Noisy."
A white light shot out from his eyes. That light was actually a sword ray that contained the power of the Gold Radiance. It was incomparably sharp and arrived in an instant.
Purple light flashed and the demon sword slashed up, breaking the Gold Radiance sword ray. The sword spirit said coldly, "I don't believe you. How can you prove that you will keep your promise?
How did you do it? "
"Bai Yuwei" said impatiently, "That is a very long story. There is not much time left. I still have other things to do. With your help, I have a better chance."
Suddenly, a lazy voice rang out, "My son, what are you going to do?"
