The change in his core caught Song Shuhang's attention.
He immediately sent his consciousness into the Core World and looked toward the chaos beyond the island.
Song Shuhang couldn't enter the Chaos Region. Within the Core World, he could only move around the island.
He stared hard at the glowing object in the chaos—the Liquid Metal Core.
"Holy shit!" Song Shuhang couldn't help shouting.
He knew that thing all too well.
In the Confucian School's Golden Lotus World, a liquid-metal fist just like it had killed him and the Confucian disciples again and again. If he hadn't entered Dream Entry in time, encountered the Third Heavenly Dao, Spotted Dragon Heavenly Dao, and gained the means to sever the passage between the Golden Lotus World and the Evil Lotus World, he would have been done for. He might have had to rely on the miraculous Bamboo Shoot Leaf in his Inch-Shrinking Bag to come back to life.
After that, he had indirectly encountered the Liquid Metal Ball several more times. Nothing good had ever come of it.
His latest encounter had been with the Black Liquid Metal Man beneath the 250th Branch of All the Monsters of the World Should Unite and Become One Family. Song Shuhang suspected that the Black Liquid Metal Man was some kind of avatar of the Netherworld Ruler.
After the Liquid Metal Man arrived in the Present World, a force resembling a Heavenly Tribulation had wiped him out. His remaining energy had turned into a mindless Evil Beast.
That Evil Beast had simply self-destructed after the Golden Lotus projected by Song Shuhang's core absorbed part of it.
He had thought its self-destruction was the end of it. But now, to his horror, the thing had appeared in his Core World.
What the hell was this?!
