Someone Came Striding Through the Air in Madness

Yang Chang had no doubts after hearing what Xu Bai said.

"Quick! Let me see!"

Xu Bai gave him so many surprises tonight.

Putting everything else aside, just the sheer number of abilities they possess is beyond imagination.

Especially the mental cultivation method that Xu Bai had given him before, he always felt something was strange when he used it, strange yet magical.

It's like several elements mixed together, yet they don't conflict with each other; they blend perfectly.

Unfortunately, the skill level is a bit low.

"Hand it over now, and I've decided not to kill you. I'll keep you by my side and help you perfect these abilities." The madness in Yang Chang's eyes grew stronger and stronger; his gaze seemed to want to devour Xu Bai whole.

Even in that era, if Xu Bai were still around, he would be considered top-tier.

Although Yang Chang's foundation as a scholar was destroyed, he still had insight and could distinguish between good and bad.

In times of chaos, heroes emerge in great numbers.

In that turbulent era, with Xu Bai's current potential, he was able to leave everyone else in the dust.

Yang Chang saw Xu Bai's potential. Yang Chang knew very well what it would mean if he could control him and help him continuously improve all his abilities.

That was a hen that kept laying eggs.

Yang Chang still had doubts. Why would Xu Bai take out the Azure Cloud Brush? Wasn't that something from the Academy? Could Xu Bai be a scholar? No, he could tell that Xu Bai had nothing to do with scholars.

Of course, Yang Chang, who was becoming increasingly deranged at this moment, believed that he had everything under control.

Xu Bai stopped talking and lowered his head, staring at the Azure Cloud Brush in his hand.

As he made this move, a golden progress bar appeared and slowly increased.

Yang Chang was still waiting, but soon he realized that Xu Bai was acting strangely.

"You've used it now?"

With just this one action, Yang Chang couldn't determine whether Xu Bai had used his ability.

"What, you don't dare to anymore?" Xu Bai said without even looking up.

Upon hearing this, Yang Chang activated the Immeasurable Dao Scripture, his eyes fixed on Xu Bai.

"Since we have it, let's bring it on!"

The Immeasurable Dao Scripture was running at an extremely fast pace, and then his body began to mimic Xu Bai's state.

Just then, Yang Chang suddenly sensed something was wrong.

"You..."

There was only one word. Yang Chang only said one word and didn't have the chance to say a second one.

His body began to swell, and in the blink of an eye, it inflated like a balloon.

The skin cracked, and a lot of fresh blood flowed out.

Yang Chang was speechless. His gaze shifted and fell on Xu Bai's location.

At this moment, Xu Bai put down the Spring Flower Brush in his hand, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

"How are you feeling? Can you eat any more?"

The sarcasm in his words was palpable.

How could the power of the system be simulated by the Immeasurable Dao Scripture?

They want to eat, but they don't even consider whether they can actually eat it.

If someone really wants to court death, Xu Bai wouldn't mind letting them.

After learning about the Immeasurable Dao Scripture, Xu Bai had already made this plan.

Since you want to simulate it, then let you simulate a progress bar.

It is obvious that the Immeasurable Dao Scripture does not yet have this ability.

In other words, it's a matter of dimensional reduction.

Yang Chang felt utterly hopeless, as if he were falling off a cliff, with the surrounding scenery rushing past him.

Just now, he tried to simulate it, and in just an instant, the backlash came like a monstrous wave.

He reacted quickly, swiftly severing the Immeasurable Dao Scripture, but even if he severed it in an instant, it was already too late.

"What kind of ability is this?!"

Yang Chang was utterly horrified, his heart pounding.

That feeling was something I wouldn't have experienced even if I had met the headmaster of the Academy.

Who is he?! At this moment, Yang Chang felt that the person standing in front of him was no longer the young man with the knife, but a terrifying behemoth.

Xu Bai took two steps forward, looked up at Yang Chang, and said slowly, "Go in peace."

As soon as Xu Bai finished speaking, cracks began to appear on Yang Chang's head, and with a loud bang, the head suddenly exploded.

Blood danced across the sky.

The floor, walls, and railings of the Spring Rain Pavilion were covered with the blood and flesh of Yang Chang's corpse.

Dark light rose from Xu Bai's body, Vajra Heart Demon Body blocked his flesh and blood.

When everything had calmed down, Xu Bai looked up at the female corpse hanging from the beam and sighed.

He didn't say a word, turned around and left.

The streets outside were pitch black and deserted.

Liu Xu and Wu Hua were still at Shadow Courier Station. Xu Bai wanted to go and check on them, so he didn't linger there and headed straight for Shadow Courier Station.

Shadow Courier Station.

Liu Xu and the other two were putting up a fierce fight.

The Buddha's light, the characters, and the smoke resisted the crushing force of the giant tree roots.

The two sides were evenly matched, and neither could gain the upper hand.

But the situation began to change. Liu Xu and her team were gradually expending more and more energy, and time was becoming increasingly tight.

They didn't have time to help Xu Bai, because they were already in dire straits themselves, unable to get out or break through.

"This humble monk is about to burn out." Wu Hua finally stopped chanting the Buddhist scriptures, said this, and then began chanting again.

As he chanted the Buddha's name again, his blue Buddha light weakened considerably, appearing precarious, like a building about to collapse.

After such a long time, Wu Hua had reached her limit and could no longer hold on.

"Phew..." Liu Xu let out a long breath, sweat pouring down her forehead, her hand holding the Azure Cloud Brush trembling slightly.

She couldn't remember how many words she had written here. Since she entered Azure Cloud Academy, she had never written so continuously as she had now.

Her body was gradually being overdrawn, and Liu Xu even felt that her vision was beginning to blur.

I can't hold on any longer.

Human strength has its limits, and at this point, they had reached their limit.

That feeling of powerlessness washed over them like a tidal wave, engulfing them.

"Monk, will our deaths be recorded in history?" Liu Xu asked.

Wu Hua turned her head away without speaking, but slowly shook her head.

Since the establishment of the Bureau of Surveillance, countless people have died, so how can we talk about recording them? I remember when I first entered the Bureau of Surveillance, an old man said something like that.

Even if the people of the Bureau of Surveillance died, most of them would not be recorded. It was already extremely good if they had a cenotaph.

Wu Hua didn't know the details of Liu Xu's situation, because he didn't know much about the Azure Cloud Academy either, but he figured it was probably similar.

"Gentlemen, don't give up until the very last moment. I'm retiring from the military in a month, and I can't die here." The Old Courier Chief's chest wound was still bleeding, and his face had turned from white to blue.

He didn't want to die here. He was almost ready to retire successfully, and it wouldn't be worth dying here.

In the sky, the black tree roots finally began to move.

Layers of black tree roots spiraled and began to intertwine in mid-air. In an instant, they formed a curtain that covered the sky, pressing down on Liu Xu and the others.

Liu Xu and the others were powerless to resist and had no strength left. They could only watch helplessly as the tree roots fell.

Everyone experiences death differently.

Some were afraid, some were desperate, and some were as calm as still water.

Liu Xu was unaware of what others were thinking; she remained calm at that moment.

Once you enter this industry, you have to be aware of this.

She had practiced many times before, and now she's used to it.

In the sky, the black tree roots drew ever closer.

The three of them had different expressions.

Just then, the black tree roots that had been pressing down stopped and ceased to press down.

"What's going on?" Wu Hua asked weakly, having exhausted all his strength.

"I don't know." Liu Xu shook her head, indicating that she was unsure.

This happened so suddenly that they didn't have time to react.

"Boom!"

A vibration was heard, accompanied by a voice.

The sound was coming from in front of them, from a wall formed by intertwined tree roots that looked incredibly solid.

With the sound of the impact, they immediately heard noises coming from outside.

Are you two still alive?

"Xu Bai!!!"

The familiar voice lifted their spirits.

"Xu Bai, you're outside. Can you break open an exit here?" Liu Xu used all her strength to walk with difficulty to the place where she had been hit.

At that moment, she felt a secret joy and a sense of luck, as if she had escaped from a desperate situation.

She appeared remarkably calm in the face of death, but that doesn't mean she enjoys it.

Wu Hua stepped forward and asked, "Benefactor, do you need our assistance from inside?"

After saying that, he sighed inwardly. Liu's intuition was truly accurate; Xu Bai really brought about a miracle.

"No need to cooperate. Stand back a bit, or you'll get splattered with blood," Xu Bai's voice rang out again.

No sooner had the words left their mouths than Liu Xu and Wu Hua heard another impact, their ears ringing from the shock.

The tree roots began to shake, and in the blink of an eye, they had been hit five or six times.

Liu Xu and the others quickly stepped back to make way for each other.

They were almost rescued, but what if they got hit and killed? Wouldn't that be a huge loss?

Cracks appeared on the tree roots, and with a final impact, Xu Bai, enveloped in dark light, rushed in from outside.

Just now, he tried many methods outside, but the Ghost-Head Saber couldn't break through it, nor could the Maple Leaves Like Rain. Only the fourth-tier skill Vajra Heart Demon Body, which could both attack and defend, was like a heavy hammer that forcefully broke through the tree roots.

Because of the excessive force used, it couldn't stop its momentum and took a few more steps forward before slowly coming to a stop.

A look of surprise appeared in Liu Xu and the others' eyes.

Finally... we're saved!

Despair brought hope.

This huge difference brought even more joy.

Liu Xu wanted to speak.

But before they could speak, they heard Xu Bai's voice.

"Something's happened outside."

In those four simple words, Liu Xu and Wu Hua instantly understood each other.

Xu Bai turned around and walked outside through the large hole.

After hearing what had just been said, Liu Xu and the others remained silent and followed Xu Bai out of the large hole.

It was pitch black outside, and a cold wind blew, giving me goosebumps.

There wasn't a single strange creature; it was as quiet as a barren wasteland.

"Crunch... crunch..."

A soft sound broke the silence of the night, like a bright firework set off in the stillness, extremely conspicuous.

Liu Xu and Wu Hua raised their heads and looked in the direction of the sound, their eyes widening simultaneously.

Only then did they realize that the appearance of the black tree root had undergone a complete transformation.

No longer just tree roots, but intertwined, they resemble a Giant Tree over 100 meters tall.

It grows so tall that even craning your neck, you can hardly see its entirety.

At the top of the Giant Tree, there was a blurry shadow.

The shadows twisted and changed, obscuring the figure.

A chaotic aura lingered in the shadows.

The feeling was like countless emotions stitched together, contradicting each other yet forcibly connected.

Weird!

This black shadow is eerie, and it's coming out of the tree.

"No wonder, no wonder, we didn't encounter anything strange," the Old Courier Chief suddenly said.

"They've come together."

Although the Old Courier Chief wasn't very strong, he was a seasoned veteran who had seen a lot, especially in the Shadow Courier Station, where he encountered all sorts of people and things, giving him a much broader perspective.

Together? At this moment, Wu Hua and Liu Xu also understood why there should have been a group of strange creatures in that forest, but they disappeared after being enveloped by tree roots. It turned out that they had merged together.

No wonder this thing looks so bizarre and chaotic, like a Frankenstein's monster.

"Has it turned into something eerie?" Xu Bai stroked his chin and muttered to himself.

When he arrived, he saw a huge sphere in the sky, from which came constant, terrible howls. The sounds were numerous and chaotic, making one's ears ring.

At the time, he thought he should rescue Liu Xu others first, but he didn't expect that in a short while, something strange would happen.

"We're already at our wits' end, this is just adding insult to injury," Wu Hua said with a bitter smile.

The joy of being rescued vanished in an instant.

This eerie creature is a fusion of many other strange entities. Just by standing atop the Giant Tree, it exudes immense pressure, filled with chilling coldness and brutality, sending shivers down one's spine.

Very strong.

They wouldn't be worried if they were both at their peak.

Now, only Xu Bai remains capable of fighting, and they are all powerless to resist.

"Sigh..." Liu Xu sighed, her heart filled with complex emotions.

They had just escaped danger when they encountered danger again.

She has to admit that she finds life truly exciting.

At this moment, the strange creature that had merged with the other finally made a move.

It floated slowly from the tree roots and landed on the ground, not far from Xu Bai and the others.

A chilling aura emanated from it, along with a sense of disgust for the living.

This is a strange common trait; they not only hate living people, but they will kill anything that is alive without hesitation.

Liu Xu and Wu Hua roused themselves and watched the strange creature warily.

Even if we have no strength left, we will fight to the very last moment.

If Xu Bai hadn't arrived just now, they would already be dead. Now they would simply be dying again.

What is there to fear in death?

"Benefactor Xu, if there is really no other way, you should save your energy to run away." Wu Hua turned his head and said, "In the county town not far from Sheng County, you only need to enter the county town and head south to find Shadow Courier Station. There, you can notify the Bureau of Surveillance and ask them to send someone over."

Liu Xu took out a letter from her clothes and handed it to Xu Bai, saying, "Take this to the Academy for me and tell them that I have died in battle here."

Xu Bai remained expressionless and turned to the Old Courier Chief: "And you, is there anything you want to give me?"

The Old Courier Chief was taken aback, then shook his head. "I am all alone. It is just a pity that I was about to retire from the army and return to my hometown, but today I have encountered this calamity."

These three people seemed to be giving their last words.

In their view, Xu Bai was capable of escaping.

The safest approach is to escape first and then notify the others.

Otherwise, no one would know what's going on here, and this strange creature wouldn't be able to be eliminated in time, which would cause even greater trouble.

"Now that you've finished explaining, let's fight."

Xu Bai stretched out his hands and patted the two of them on the shoulders.

The fight hasn't even started yet, and saying we can't win now is just too discouraging.

Liu Xu and Wu Hua were both taken aback.

Is this a declaration that he intends to fight to the death alongside them? They couldn't see through Xu Bai, nor did they have a chance to think about it, because Xu Bai made his move.

The night was as dark as ink.

Xu Bai reached out and pulled out a handful of copper coins from his waist belt, sweeping them across the strange creature with a motion like Maple Leaves Like Rain.

The copper coins were enveloped in a dark light, and the maple leaves were battered by wind and rain, with Heavenly Shower of Flowers Scattering Gold Coins.

The strange fusion was instantly pierced, leaving his entire body riddled with tiny holes—the result of Xu Bai's attack.

But then, the strangely fused body swayed, and the small holes on its body were instantly filled in.

At this moment, the fusion of the bizarre finally made its move.

Strands of black energy rose from the strange creature, swirling and intertwining in the sky.

This black aura contains countless abilities, which constantly intertwine and merge, making it appear exceptionally terrifying.

Each of these strange beings was a practitioner of the Immeasurable Dao Scripture in their previous lives. After merging with it, these abilities also blended together, resulting in this unique and strange power.

The black mist swept in, shrinking continuously along the way, and finally transformed into a black sphere the size of a thumb.

It was extremely fast, shooting straight towards Xu Bai.

This is no ordinary black sphere. Within this small black sphere lies countless powers, which collide, merge, and become inseparable. Once struck, these powers erupt, causing immense damage.

Can you hide? No.

The speed is just too fast.

A layer of dark light rose from Xu Bai's body, enveloping him completely and obscuring his face.

—Diamond Vajra Heart Demon Body, let's go for it! Talking about anything else is pointless now, let's go straight for the strongest skill.

If we go all out, we should be able to fight.

At the same time, Xu Bai reached out and pounded both of his hands on his kidneys.

The Hammering Kidney Method! The long-absent Hammering Kidney Method has made a comeback.

A fiery sensation flowed from Xu Bai's waist, followed by a thickening of the dark aura around him, and his internal True Yuan Power also increased amidst the heat.

The black ball struck the dark light.

The abilities within began to erupt one by one.

Using Xu Bai's legs as a starting point, cracks appeared in the ground, and the layer of dark light gradually shattered.

The black sphere continuously released its power, gradually shrinking until it disappeared completely after releasing its last power.

"Phew..." Xu Bai let out a long breath, looking at the still sturdy black light in front of him despite the cracks, and turned around to give Liu Xu and the others a safe gesture.

Both the Liu Xu and the Wu Hua were stunned.

"Benefactor Liu, if I'm not mistaken, Benefactor Xu's ability just now seemed to exceed the third level." Wu Hua's face was blank, and his voice trembled.

That's not fair!

Isn't that utter nonsense?!

They even prepared their last words, and then you managed to turn the tables, which is a bit upsetting.

Wu Hua felt that the atmosphere they had worked so hard to create was now gone. Liu Xu hadn't recovered yet, and after hearing Wu Hua's words, she asked blankly, "What's so strange about it happening to him?"

This was just a casual remark, yet it silenced everyone present.

yes.

All of this happened to Xu, and everything seemed normal again.

After all, this is Xu Bai.

"Luckily, no conflict broke out in the street at the time, otherwise..."

Wu Hua thought back to what happened on the street that day and thought to himself, "Otherwise, I would have died very quickly."

Two against one?

That doesn't exist at all, okay?

Based on Xu Bai's current performance, if a fight were to break out that day, it would be entirely Xu Bai surrounding the two of them.

"This humble monk finally understands what it means to be outmatched by others and to be in a world beyond our understanding," Wu Hua sighed.

At this moment, Xu Bai also began to move.

He wielded the dark light emanating from his body, like a terrifying cutting machine, crashing straight into the eerie creature.

There was no method or technique; it was all about brute force.

The combination of the Hammering Kidney Method and the Vajra Heart Demon Body made Xu Bai feel more comfortable than ever before.

I'm not weak at all, my kidneys are great! I feel wonderful all over, it's indescribable.

The dark light fell like a shooting star, arriving in an instant.

When Xu Bai slammed into the strange creature, it was instantly shattered.

But the next moment, the scattered black mist merged again, transforming into something eerie once more.

After this fusion, the colors on the eerie creature's body faded considerably, and some parts appeared transparent.

"You're not an infinitely reborn person either."

Xu Bai saw through the trick at a glance. He didn't give the strange creature a chance to retaliate, turned around again, and rammed into it hard once more.

There's a saying that goes, "Giving others a chance is giving yourself a chance to destroy yourself."

This is a life-or-death battle, not a turn-based game. To defeat the opponent without any chance of fighting back, you must go all out.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

A loud noise shattered the darkness, adding boundless liveliness. The liveliness combined with the darkness, making the entire night seem to come alive.

Xu Bai exudes a wildness unique to men.

He abandoned all technique and adopted the wildest and most brutal impact.

With each impact, the eeriness faded a little, and in this dark night, the sound of the impact was like a heavy hammer, striking everyone's heart.

That's too... direct!

This was the opinion of everyone present.

The simpler something is, the more impactful it can be; this is exactly what happened to Xu Bai at this moment.

Time passes.

When the final impact was complete, the eerie substance transformed into a sky full of black mist, which could no longer be condensed.

Everything disappeared, peace returned, and the night fell silent once more.

Xu Bai stopped, turned his back to Liu Xu and the others, and put his hands behind his back.

Just looking at his back, you can feel a sense of grandeur.

Recalling the figure that had just appeared, which resembled a war behemoth, everyone shuddered.

"It's finally over." Xu Bai's voice trembled slightly.

The people present were not ordinary people, so of course they could tell.

Liu Xu and the others stared at Xu Bai's retreating figure, puzzled as to why this was happening.

At this moment, Xu Bai turned around.

He had dark circles under his eyes and his face was pale, making him look like he hadn't slept for several nights.

The side effects of the Hammering Kidney Method are here.

Even though he had reached the eighth rank, he couldn't withstand it.

"Listen to me first," Xu Bai said, intending to explain.

At this moment, Wu Hua walked up and quickly grabbed Xu Bai's wrist, placing her fingers on Xu Bai's pulse.

A moment later...

Wu Hua's eyes were full of doubt. "That shouldn't be the case."

"What's wrong?" Liu Xu asked with concern.

Wu Hua was about to speak, she felt a chill run through her body.

He turned his head and saw Xu Bai staring at him with a murderous look.

"It's nothing, it's just overexertion." Wu Hua shivered and swallowed her previous words.

My master once said that men all care about their pride.

He intended to keep this secret forever.

Otherwise, given the look in Master Xu's eyes just now, he would have been silenced.

Liu Xu also felt very strange. She grabbed Xu Bai's arm with her fair and slender hand, and prepared to put her other hand on Xu Bai's wrist.

"Don't move!" Xu Bai's body trembled, and he quickly withdrew his hand. "I know my own situation. Now is not the time to deal with these things. You guys take care of the follow-up matters first."

Are you kidding me? He's not really weak.

Is it only temporary? If it's confirmed, you won't be able to clear your name even if you jump into the river.

Once those words were spoken, everyone understood the current situation.

"Let's Sheng County first," Liu Xu said.

The strange incident has been resolved, the Extreme Life Sect has been dealt with, now we should go back and recuperate.

Wu Hua nodded, indicating her agreement with Liu Xu's statement.

The Old Courier Chief gave a bitter smile, "I'll stay here and report the situation here to the imperial court."

He was a post station chief, so of course he couldn't be promoted to Sheng County.

Everyone nodded.

Now that they had nothing left to do, they prepared to leave.

Xu Bai has a lot to do. After he returns and recovers, he still needs to work hard to finish the Spring Flower Brush.

With that in mind, they checked the surroundings again to make sure they hadn't missed anything, and then prepared to leave.

As for the Giant Tree in front of us, it's more appropriate for the postmaster to handle it.

"Let's go." Xu Bai put his hand on Wu Hua's shoulder.

Wu Hua nodded.

Everyone immediately prepared to leave.

But at that moment, something unexpected happened.

It was already late at night, and the sky was so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of your face. In the distant sky, a small point of light seemed to appear.

The spot of light was initially only the size of a thumb, but in the blink of an eye, its full form was revealed.

This is a woman wearing a light yellow Daoist robe.

Her long, black hair was loose and disheveled.

She has a gentle and beautiful appearance, with a gentle and graceful temperament. She is about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, but has an indescribable charm.

No matter how you look at it, there's nothing wrong with this woman; even her messy hair has a unique, chaotic beauty.

That would be fine, but the key issue is that there's one spot that ruins a woman's charm.

Eye!

Those beautiful, star-like eyes lacked the expected elegance; instead, they held an extreme madness.

A madness that devours everything, a madness that disregards everything.

After being transmitted through the eyes, the scent of madness permeated the entire body; nothing about it was normal.

In the sky, the disheveled woman in the Daoist robe made no move, as if she had never seen them.

They came flying through the air!

This woman seemed to arrive as if walking on flat ground, as if she were stepping into thin air.

"This..."

Liu Xu wanted to speak, but before she could utter a word, Xu Bai raised his hand to interrupt her.

Xu Bai shook his head and put his index finger to his lips, meaning to keep quiet.

Liu Xu and the others understood what she meant, so they all shut their mouths, quietly looked at the sky, and became vigilant in case anything unexpected happened.

Xu Bai narrowed his eyes.

Things have become unpredictable and have gone beyond our initial plans.

This woman who suddenly appeared could actually fly? She truly stepped into the air, as if a path had suddenly appeared in mid-air, both smooth and swift.

He had been in this world for so long, and this was the first time he had ever seen someone who could fly.

"Hehehe, big tree!" The woman in the Daoist robe finally spoke. She seemed to be unable to see anyone else, with only this tree in front of her, and her tone was full of madness.

"A tree?" Xu Bai was taken aback.

Did this woman come because of the Giant Tree?

Of course, the situation didn't allow him to think too much, because as soon as the woman in the Daoist robe finished speaking, she made another strange gesture.

"The Immeasurable Dao Scripture, hehehe, the Daoist scriptures are immeasurable!"

Incoherent words came from the woman in the Daoist robe, and then, in her frenzy, she finally raised her right hand.

A faint white light appeared on her fair right hand, and then the woman in the Daoist robe slowly lowered her raised hand.

It was as if an enormous mountain range had appeared out of nowhere, and the Giant Tree in front of me was as fragile as a piece of paper as my hand fell.

In the blink of an eye, half of the tree was destroyed.

The other half is perfectly preserved, as if someone had cleaved it in half, with a smooth and neat cut surface.

The scene became very strange, with half a tree standing out from its surroundings.

This single strike brought immense pressure to everyone, like a tidal wave crashing down.

Xu Bai narrowed his eyes slightly.

This woman in the Daoist robe is very strong.

At this moment, after finishing what she had just done, the woman in the Daoist robe turned her gaze downwards again.

His manic gaze swept over Xu Bai and the others.

Liu Xu and Wu Hua turned pale. After being swept by that gaze, they felt their heads buzz, as if it could stir their emotions, making their consciousness chaotic and frantic.

A single glance was enough to put them in this predicament.

Xu Bai remained silent.

He could sense that although the woman in the Daoist robe in front of him seemed crazy, she didn't seem to have any hostility.

Using the methods I just used, dealing with them would be a piece of cake, but I haven't made a move yet.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the woman in the Daoist robe withdrew her gaze.

Although he appeared extremely mad, he did not make a move.

The woman in the Daoist robe began to tread again.

As she walked, strange lotus flowers bloomed beneath her feet, supporting her until she finally arrived at the half-tree.

The woman in the Daoist robe reached out and placed her hand on the stump of the Giant Tree.

The tree stump seemed to be made of paper; with a gentle press from the woman in the Daoist robe, a palm print was left in it.

"Ah!!!" The woman in the Daoist robe suddenly clutched her head and cried out in pain.

"The Immeasurable Dao Scripture!"

"People-Harming Dao Scripture!"

"The ocean is boundless, encompassing all things and phenomena!"

A series of sounds came out, which were puzzling.

The roars gradually subsided, and the woman in the Daoist robe still retained a look of madness, but she was no longer in pain.

She took steps and gradually rose into the air.

In the blink of an eye, it had disappeared into the horizon.

The whole process was efficient and straightforward.

The scene was silent.

Xu Bai frowned and asked, "Who exactly is she?"

"The ocean is boundless, encompassing all things and phenomena—this phrase sounds so familiar," Liu Xu, lost in thought.

She felt like she had heard that phrase somewhere before, but couldn't quite place it.

At this moment, Wu Hua didn't say a word, as if he was thinking about something.

Xu Bai noticed Wu Hua's unusual behavior, turned his gaze to her, and asked, "You know?"

Wu Hua came to his senses, put his hands together and said, "I am also very familiar with that sentence, and I know where I have heard it before. I have a guess about that person."

At this point, Wu Hua took a deep breath.
