Sorry, sorry, I was too busy yesterday and didn’t manage to ask for leave in ti.
I’ll make up for the update today.
...
Evil Qi swept crazily into Su Bei’s body. His consciousness gradually descended into chaos, eventually becoming completely imrsed in his Sea of Consciousness.
In his consciousness, it seed to be the sa vision of broken walls and ruins he had dread of before—dust, corpses, and blood.
In the distance was a towering mountain peak, one Su Bei had never seen before.
At the broken wall, a chilling sword impaled the skeleton of a man wearing a mask positioned across his forehead.
Though the man had long been dead, Su Bei could still feel an endless terror emanating from his remains.
Above the Tribulation-Crossing Stage!
Above the vault of the sky, a colorful stream of light shimred. Through it, one could barely glimpse the wildly surging Spiritual Energy. The man in white stood atop the mountain, surrounded by a halo of swords.
Light showered down on him.
Su Bei couldn’t see his face.
But for so reason, he felt an inexplicable familiarity with this man. It was as if, despite never having seen him, he understood him profoundly.
The man looked towards Su Bei, his white robes rustling in the wind. He murmured, seemingly oblivious to the new presence beside him, "I knew you would co."
"..."
Su Bei stared at the man’s eyes. His face was completely hidden in darkness, save for two pupils that glowed with a crimson hue. Countless Qingfeng swords revolved around him.
Su Bei instinctively shuddered and took a step back. Observing Su Bei’s reaction, the man chuckled self-deprecatingly, "Is it really so?"
Su Bei abruptly lifted his head. Crimson magma flowed from the distant volcano, and the entire sky seed to turn upside down.
The man waved his hand gently. High above in the heavens, a sword was thrust into the sea of clouds. Beside the sword lay an exceedingly ordinary stone.
"Who are you?"
"What exactly is this Devouring Heaven?"
"Where is this place? Let out!"
The man looked at Su Bei indifferently, his hands clasped behind his back as he gazed at the light pouring from the inverted sky. He didn’t answer Su Bei’s questions but instead spoke softly, "Do you know what this light is?"
Su Bei took a deep breath. The Sword Box flew open, and the Qingping Sword, along with Missing Departure, shot out instantly. Suppressing the doubts in his heart, he demanded, "I’ll ask you again, who exactly are you? Where is this place?"
"..."
He could sense that the man before him seed to have no intention of harming him.
As Su Bei finished speaking, the man atop the mountain, as if he had heard the most amusing joke, said with a playful tone, "This place is Inverted Heaven."
"Do you really want to know who I am?"
"Don’t you want to know what this light is?"
"..."
Su Bei could feel cold sweat covering his back. Just a glance from the man brought an extre sense of oppression.
He was certain this man was stronger than the Saintess! Far stronger, in fact. He might very well be at the legendary Mahayana stage, or even beyond it!!
"What does this pillar of light have to do with ?"
"Who exactly are you?"
"..."
The man in white sighed. Looking at the pillar of light, he said lightly, "How do you know that this pillar of light has nothing to do with you?"
"..."
Su Bei’s eyes hardened. He clenched his fists tightly and swallowed hard. Finally, he took a careful look above at the inverted sky, and then he saw the most shocking scene of his life.
Above that light stretched endless jade towers and celestial palaces, a vision of boundless opulence: ceremonial pendants swaying by night candles, bells awaiting the dawn rooster, the solemn drums of a thousand squadrons, myriad voices rising in unified blessing, phoenix flutes accompanying golden regalia, and the Jade Palace subtly adorned with jade inscriptions.
He seed to understand sothing, then turned his head in shock to look at the man.
The answer in his heart was already on the brink of bursting out.
Beyond Mahayana... the Guiding Sacred Light... Ascension!!
The man, seeing Su Bei’s expression, seed to already know sothing. His white outer robe trailed on the ground, while his figure, clad in a dark inner robe, stood ramrod straight. He spoke faintly, "I am you..."
Su Bei stood motionless, looking at everything before him, the man’s light words echoing in his ears.
I am you...
"You are ?"
"I am you."
"Then who am I?"
"You are ."
Su Bei’s head throbbed with even greater pain. As the Evil Qi from the outside world poured crazily into his body, his consciousness descended further into chaos. He just looked at the man before him.
"This whole ruined scene... did you do all this?"
With his hands behind his back, the man nodded, "It was you."
"The one ascending, guided by the Guiding Sacred Light—is that you?"
"It’s you."
"These corpses and this sea of blood everywhere... did you do this?"
"It’s you."
Su Bei clutched his head tightly with both hands, his eyes reflecting a near madness as he roared at the person before him, "Not ! It was you! It was all you who did this! I am Su Bei! I’ve never done any of these things!"
The man looked at him calmly. The crimson in his eyes slowly faded, and then his face gradually erged from the darkness.
Su Bei froze, staring at him—staring at the face that was identical to his own.
Finally, as if realizing sothing, Su Bei laughed out loud and said, "Hahaha, you are not !!"
"You are my Heart Demon."
"I would never have such eyes, such an aura, nor would I dress like this..."
