Rebirth of a Quasi-Immortal Spirit

As Yun Mu Ning activated the spatial displacement, she summoned the Mirror Spirit Tian Hua to the final battleground. She had too many questions that needed to be answered for her.

However, the spatial displacement attempt failed, and the Mirror Spirit Tianhua did not respond.

"what happened?"

Gao Zhun and Wu Yaqiubai asked in unison when Yun Muning did not take the three of them away for a long time.

"The illusion is about to close, and the gate to reality is about to open. My management authority over the illusion is temporarily suspended," Yun Mu Ning said, biting her lower lip. What she cared about was not the amount of authority, but the significance it represented.

“In that case, I can fly on my sword. This is the fastest way we can get there right now.” With that, Gao Zhun summoned the Azure Light Sword, widening the blade to a width that would allow the three of them to stand side by side. She gestured for Wu Yaqiu Bai and Yun Mu Ning to mount the sword. After confirming the location, she used the maximum spiritual power she could muster to speed towards their destination.

When Gao Zhun and his two companions arrived at the scene, which was the location of the previous Alliance Conference, all the outsiders who had entered the area were already circling in the air. A tall figure suddenly appeared in front of Gao Zhun and said excitedly, "Master."

“Ah Zhong?” Gao Zhun looked at the man who appeared in front of her, her eyes flashing, and she saw a Spirit Locking Seal in his body that she had never seen before. Ah Zhong actually had a Spirit Locking Seal, but there was no time to investigate this matter now. She turned her attention to the focus of everyone’s attention, the final confrontation between the Alliance and Akomo outside the conference hall.

For cultivators, a tenfold difference in time flow rate does not prevent them from accurately knowing the state of the people below, since they often use a hundredfold time flow rate when viewing the recording stone.

"What is the current situation of the battle?" Wu Yaqiu asked Xuan Yuanhuanyu, who had arrived earlier than them.

Xuan Yuan Huan Yu's expression was somewhat unpleasant, but after all, she was one of the promoters of this plan. Although none of the extraterrestrial envoys could get involved after the plan was launched, it was still related to her.

"Akomo's counter-espionage plan was successfully implemented. After all, in the tens of millions of years since the alliance was established, countless similar conflicts between the Blood Shadow and the Light Shadow had occurred. However, in the last thousand years, while everyone appeared to be at peace on the surface, it was actually a period of accumulating contradictions. After Akomo's disguise and intensification, the soldiers at the lower levels of both sides didn't even bother to investigate and directly pointed their spears at each other. The alliance's higher-ups couldn't stop it either, and the infighting between the Blood Shadow and the Light Shadow reached a near-fatal level. At that time, we were happy, because the more the alliance's strength was weakened, the better news it was for us. Until—"

At this point, Xuan Yuan Huan Yu's face had turned ashen. Mo Ni Chang, who had been standing beside her, holding her hand and offering support, finally couldn't bear it any longer and stepped in to add to her story: "Until Blood Shadow and Light Shadow were both severely injured, Akomo, who had been hiding in the shadows, finally made his move again. Ha, we should have expected it. Akomo's people are all lunatics whose brains are filled with madness. After suddenly appearing, they not only defeated the hastily assembled alliance army, but also slaughtered all the prisoners. Akomo's soldiers marched all the way to the heart of the alliance, practically trampling on the lives of innocent civilians in this illusionary world. As for the center of the alliance, less than a tenth of the population is struggling to hold on. Now, this is their last stand."

With just a few words and Xuan Yuan Huan Yu's expression, Gao Zhun could imagine the bloodshed contained within. Along the way, A Ke Mo must have committed all sorts of atrocities, including burning, killing, and looting. Not only her, but also Wu Ya Qiu Bai and Yun Mu Ning, who had learned more of the truth, had tears in their eyes. The guilt and anger surging in their hearts were even greater than those of Xuan Yuan Huan Yu and the others.

After all, Xuan Yuan Huan Yu and Mo Ni Chang simply disliked such things. If they knew that everyone here was a real human being with a soul, especially Xuan Yuan Huan Yu who always held onto various beliefs of justice and benevolence, she would probably collapse on the spot and never recover.

Suddenly, a familiar voice reached Gao Zhun's ears. She turned her head and saw Gu Xinling sobbing uncontrollably as she threw herself into You Ruolan's arms: "Waaah... Sister Ruolan, I didn't mean to. I didn't know that Akomo's side was worse than the Alliance's. They've done so many bad things, they..."

So heartbroken that even his strange verbal tic disappeared. As for the other outsiders, apart from a few, most of them were young people under twenty years old. They all turned their heads away with some reluctance, not wanting to watch the duel below. They just silently prayed in their hearts that all of this would pass quickly, that the Gate of Truth would open soon, and that they would leave this inexplicable illusion.

“Miss Wuya, Miss Yun, I hope you can keep what I just said a secret. There are some things that the three of us can bear.”

Hearing Gao Zhun's somber voice transmission, Wu Yaqiubai and Yun Muning both nodded heavily. Indeed, on one hand, their hasty decision led to this cruel outcome, and there was no need for everyone to understand and bear it. On the other hand, the hearts of the three sank into the abyss. Although things had developed to this point, another reason why they still chose to remain silent was actually for their future.

Because neither Gao Zhun, Yun Mu Ning, nor Wu Ya Qiu Bai would allow their future to be ruined by this mistake. If no one else knew that the humans in this illusion were real, then even if others knew that this plan was jointly devised and implemented by them, Xuan Yuan Huan Yu, Mo Ni Chang, Gu Xin Ling, and You Ruo Lan, it would not have a substantial impact on their future. After all, they were all illusory beings, and the righteous path of the Immortal Spirit Continent would not hold a grudge against them for this.

“Every now and then, humans create inhuman monsters in their hearts,” Gao Zhun said in a very low voice. However, everyone present was a cultivator, so who couldn’t hear him? It’s just that everyone had their own different understanding.

If we were to ask who feels this statement most deeply?

Wuya Qiubai and Yun Muning exchanged a glance, and their hands involuntarily clenched together to encourage each other. This incident would undoubtedly become a demon in the hearts of the three of them, and they didn't know when it would erupt and take everything away from them. However, even if that day came, they would accept it calmly, because it was something they had to bear.

"Oh my God!"

Someone in the group of visiting cultivators exclaimed in surprise. Following the gazes of most people, Gao Zhun's pupils shrank. The person surrounded by more than a dozen high-ranking generals of Akomo was none other than Weng Yewei, who had let her go that night.

However, at this moment, Weng Yewei was covered in injuries and nearly exhausted. She was surrounded by more than ten male high-ranking generals from the Akomo camp, her face filled with despair. The foreign cultivators who had been watching for some time all knew what terrible scene was about to unfold! Just look at Gu Xinling's reaction to know.

"Sister Weng!" Gu Xinling cried out, but fainted in You Ruolan's arms. You Ruolan, holding Gu Xinling's body, also closed her eyes, her face deathly pale. How could she stand by and watch that innocent and lovely girl be violated? Even though in her eyes the other was merely a fictional character belonging to this illusion, no one is without feelings. She and Gu Xinling had spent a considerable amount of time in the alliance, and because of Gu Xinling's liveliness, she had interacted with Weng Yewei more than others. They had long considered her a friend. Yet now, their friend was about to suffer a terrible fate because of their plan…

"Damn it!" Enraged, Gao Zhun no longer cared that her Eye of Truth would be exposed in front of so many people. She removed the ink ice she had just replaced, and right there in front of everyone, the light shooting from her eyes shone directly into the battle below.

Ah Zhong had told Gao Zhun earlier that along the way, countless cultivators had tried to intervene to stop the atrocities committed by the Akomo soldiers, but all their attempts ended in failure. It was as if they were detached from this world, their time flowed differently from that of the Alliance and Akomo, and their attacks couldn't even reach them. Of course, it seemed that no one in the Alliance and Akomo could detect the existence of these outsiders. They had been treated well before, with 'messengers from beyond the heavens' constantly mentioned, but since the start of this decisive battle, it seemed that the people of the Alliance and Akomo had completely forgotten about the existence of 'messengers from beyond the heavens.' One side only knew how to fight to the death to defend their homeland, while the other side only knew how to take advantage of their advantage and unleash their power.

Leaving aside the crowd of onlookers, once Gao Zhun activated his Eye of Truth, the two sides of the Alliance Akomo who were fighting below finally realized the existence of a third party. Of course, when they looked up, they could only see Gao Zhun, whose eyes were emitting dazzling golden light; the others were still invisible to them.

"Heavenly Fire that Burns the World".

Gao Zhun's lips moved as he spoke. Wu Yaqiubai and Xuanyuan Huanyu, who knew Gao Zhun's Eye of Truth very well, changed their expressions drastically upon seeing this. This madman! It's true that the Burning World Heavenly Fire is one of the attack skills associated with the Eye of Truth, but according to historical records, Xuanyuan's Eye of Truth could only be activated when his cultivation reached the Nascent Soul stage. Now, Gao Zhun, who only has the cultivation of the early Golden Core stage, is forcibly activating this attack. Isn't he just courting death?

However, it was all too late. The World-Burning Heavenly Fire, accompanied by the golden light bursting from Gao Zhun's eyes, burned into the battle below. Almost as soon as it ignited one of Akomo's men, the fire spread uncontrollably. The World-Burning Heavenly Fire burned away all the darkness in the world. Of course, Gao Zhun's cultivation was not yet high enough, so only very obvious human darkness could be drawn to him. It was precisely because of this that almost everyone in Akomo's camp, from top to bottom, was engulfed in golden flames. For a moment, black smoke filled the battlefield. The foreign cultivators floating in the air watching were all dumbfounded. They had actually been attacked by this kid who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere!
