In short, when it comes to cultivation aptitude, regardless of the "path," Mu Bingxing is unparalleled in the world, truly the kind of child everyone admires.
But now, because of some things, he has become a remnant soul, and is naturally no match for Long Cangxue.
The Crimson Radiance Sword Master is a person with much to say about him.
Born in the First Universe, with an ordinary physique, yet possessing an ambition that transcends everything.
Because he practiced swordsmanship to the point of death, he later borrowed 100,000 years of life from the heavens through certain fortuitous opportunity, and was reborn.
After that, stepping over the corpses of billions of living beings, amidst a storm of blood and carnage, he broke free from the shackles of the lower world, becoming invincible throughout the universe and ascending to the Supreme.
Among all the powerful figures, only he came from a humble background!
Hearing this, Long Cangxue shook her head. "I fought him ten years ago, and he was defeated!"
"Aren't there two more reclusive ones? Find them and give them a beating. I can't stand these pretentious recluses. Do they think they can transform themselves after a few years of seclusion? What are they thinking? Not everyone is like me, with extraordinary talent!"
As Mu Bingxing spoke, his words took a different turn.
Long Cangxue said, "Stop being so narcissistic!"
Mu Bingxing retorted, "No, this is confidence. Don't you have confidence?"
Long Cangxue: "..."
After a pause, Mu Bingxing said, "I heard Little Feng went to the Fifth Universe? I can't stay away from here for too long, so keep an eye on him!"
"What's wrong?"
" The Fifth Universe belongs to a higher dimension!"
"Knew."
"If anything happens to him, I'm cutting ties with you!"
Mu Bingxing made some harsh remarks.
Long Cangxue rolled her eyes and said coldly, "I might as well just take him as my disciple, so you won't have to worry about him like an old woman every day!"
Mu Bingxing's eyes lit up. "I couldn't be happier! Oh, and after you take him as your disciple, don't forget to pass on your skills!"
Long Cangxue: "As expected, you were just after my cultivation level!"
Mu Bingxing, "Ahem, I didn't say that."
Long Cangxue: "..."
Three days later.
The starship burst out of the space tunnel and landed in a secret realm.
Everyone disembarked!
They walked forward, surrounded by a misty, dreamlike scene.
Continuing onward, we gradually entered a land filled with silver pagodas, their tops pointed like sharp swords pointing towards the sky.
Cong Yun guide explained, "This is the Illusion Realm, so what you see before you is a mixture of reality and illusion. Be careful not to stare at any one thing for too long, or you'll easily be invaded by illusionary power!"
Xie Feng looked around and casually asked, "What kind of road is the Purple Paths and Red Dust Road?"
Cong Yun explained, "That's a mysterious Heavenly River stretching across the northern part of the Illusion Realm. Although its name includes 'road,' it's actually a river. I suspect your destination is related to the Past Like a Dream Mirror! Because it's the only place that exists on the Purple Paths and Red Dust Road!"
"What is this?"
"This mirror, a creation of nature, can trace the past and heal various wounds."
"That's right!"
Upon hearing this, Xie Feng immediately nodded.
This is exactly what his senior brother Kong Qiusu, needed!
Cong Yun led everyone to the largest Buddhist pagoda, a place filled with a mysterious and eerie atmosphere.
They walked forward, when suddenly, the space rippled, and a white-robed monk appeared before the pagoda gate. He had his back to the group, his figure was hunched, and he seemed to be quite old.
The old monk seemed to have eyes in the back of his head. He looked at Cong Yun and said in a hoarse voice, "The first time is unfamiliar, the second time is familiar. A regular customer has arrived!"
Cong Yun stared at his retreating figure, then shook her head. "I don't want to come."
The old monk said, "But you still came, or rather, it was the person next to you who wanted to come, right?"
Xie Feng spoke up at the opportune moment, "My name is Xie Feng. May I ask who you are?"
The old monk calmly asked, "You want to know who I am?"
Xie Feng said, "To be honest, I'm not that curious, but saying hello shows my politeness."
At this moment, the old monk slowly turned around, looked directly at Xie Feng, and asked with a smile, "Look, who am I?"
Xie Feng squinted at it, and his expression changed slightly instantly!
The old monk turned around and was no longer hunched over. Instead, he looked like a young man, and his face was exactly the same as that of the Dao Realm Buddha Emperor Ye Zhu!
To be honest, Xie Feng was somewhat surprised, because Ye Zhu was already dead; he had killed him!
"You're surprised? Haha, I Wuxiang. I am what you perceive me to be. What image do I have in your eyes?"
The old monk looked at everyone with a smile.
Cong Yun said, "You appear to me as a kind and benevolent old man."
The Old Man Pine Gatherer said, "An ordinary monk."
Ge Ya crossed his arms and said, "I consider you a pile of dog shit!"
Old monk. "..."
His smile vanished instantly, replaced by displeasure at being offended.
No one would want to hear something like that!
Xie Feng stared at the man, and after a moment of thought, he said, "No! What you're doing now is actually using a power to excavate memories deep within people's minds and conjure them up. This is just a way for you to deceive us!"
The old monk sighed in disappointment and said, "Alas, you've figured it out. I don't like people who are too clever."
Xie Feng's gaze was icy. "I'm not a martial artist. I'll give you two choices: retreat or fight. In short, you have to let us through!"
The old monk clasped his hands together, bowed to the crowd, and said, "Besides fighting, I have no other choice..."
No sooner had he finished speaking than a hissing sound rang out, Dao Fire sword flashed out, instantly decapitating the old monk!
Xie Feng struck first!
That Dao Fire sword was transformed from the Northern Nether Heaven-Subduing Fire!
The new flame is so useful...
Xie Feng sighed inwardly, then looked at the old monk's headless corpse and said calmly, "I'm not a martial arts enthusiast, I'm just quick-witted, don't mind me."
Old monk. "..."
His body swayed, then he collapsed with a thud.
Ge Ya nodded and said, "In terms of being ruthless and taciturn, I have a worthy successor."
The Old Man Pine Gatherer, said, "I believe the saying, 'Those who aren't family won't enter the same door.'"
Let's go!
Xie Feng accepted the praise and calmly walked towards the pagoda gate.
The group pushed open the tower door and entered a dark and gloomy hall. The atmosphere here was oppressive, everything was damp, and there were many tattered cobwebs, clearly indicating that it had been neglected for many years.
"Could this be the Purple Paths and Red Dust Road?" Xie Feng muttered to himself as he surveyed his surroundings.
"It seems that every passage is different. I didn't come here before. When I opened the pagoda door that day, there was a strange space, but it's gone now!" Cong Yun frowned and looked around.
"Look carefully, maybe a miracle will happen!"
"Old Man Pine Gatherer said."
The crowd dispersed to different places. The main hall housed many tall bronze Buddha statues, among which, in the deepest part, was a golden Buddha statue, over ten zhang tall, with a kind and benevolent face, quite extraordinary.
