Yang Zhen was genuinely startled this time, even more so than when the Shameless Cat said he wasn't human.
This time he really messed up badly. Not that he messed up badly, but the evil spirit in front of him, which was clearly on the platform but he couldn't find, messed up badly.
An evil entity he had never seen or even heard of before kept saying it was waiting for him here, that it had finally arrived and was going to give him something, speaking as if it were entrusting the entire world to him to destroy and play with.
The key point is that this evil entity seems to look down on him!
Damn it!
Yang Zhen cursed a common phrase from the Cultivation World, looking around with a bewildered expression, and continued to ask patiently, "Who are you? Fellow villager, do we know each other?"
This time, Yang Zhen used his divine soul power. The rumbling sound was like thunder, and the terrifying sound waves filled the entire platform. Under such circumstances, as long as the evil creature still had a little bit of consciousness, it would be impossible for it not to hear it.
However, that guy seemed not to have heard at all; he had vanished without a trace, leaving only an overwhelming, terrifying Evil Qi that continued to erode Yang Zhen's mind.
Once Yang Zhen's mind is corrupted by this Evil Qi, he could very well become like Corpse Puppet, living in a daze, and all he knows is killing, endless killing.
What left Yang Zhen speechless was that this sinister power seemed to be only passively eroding him. In other words, Yang Zhen couldn't even withstand the passive nature of this aura. Who could withstand that?
No wonder that voice sounded like it looked down on him.
Yang Zhen stood there dumbfounded. Since that guy wasn't coming out, he could only wait and see.
Just then, the Shameless Cat suddenly let out a strange cry, patted Yang Zhen's shoulder, and said, "Wake up, wake up, kid, what the hell are you doing?"
Yang Zhen was startled and suddenly woke up. A huge cat's butt flashed before his eyes, and he instinctively slapped it.
The Shameless Cat let out a strange howl, did a 360-degree spin, and landed without splashing water. As if it had been scalded, it darted back up with a whoosh.
Seeing that Yang Zhen had regained consciousness, the Shameless Cat breathed a sigh of relief, pried open Yang Zhen's eyelids, and said with a sigh of relief, "Damn it, did you try to scare me to death? The way you were just now, my heart was pounding like crazy."
Yang Zhen wasn't in the mood for arguing with that Shameless Cat, and asked blankly, "What happened to me just now?"
"You don't know?" The Shameless Cat was taken aback, then grinned and said, "Damn it, your eyes were bloodshot just now, like you were going to turn me into a charcoal-grilled fat cat. Why did you suddenly think of eating cat meat? Didn't you say cat meat is sour?"
That cat meat is sour, you son of a bitch!
A look of horror flashed in Yang Zhen's eyes. She took a deep breath and asked, "Did you hear anything just now?"
"A sound?" The Shameless Cat shook its head and said, "I didn't hear anything. But you, your breathing is so rapid, like you're in heat. Damn it, what's wrong with this place? This roaring is really annoying me. Let's get down here quickly."
Yang Zhen looked at the Shameless Cat and, after confirming that the Shameless Cat wasn't talking nonsense, her expression changed.
The Shameless Cat couldn't hear the voice, which meant the voice was indeed directed at him.
Oh my, this is so much fun, incredibly fun!
Yang Zhen ignored the Shameless Cat, walked to the center of the stone platform, and cursed loudly, "You son of a bitch, come here if you dare! Come here if you dare! Come here if you dare!"
"Ah!"
Yang Zhen raised his momentum to its peak, hands on hips, jumping up and down, cursing wildly. "This Sage of Saunter was punching the old folks' home of Nanshan Holy Palace when he was ten, and kicking the kindergarten of Beihai Divine Temple when he was thirteen. I've never been afraid. Didn't you want to give this Sage of Saunter something? Then give it to me!"
The Shameless Cat stared blankly at Yang Zhen, his mouth agape, muttering to himself, "Damn, when it comes to cursing, I'm completely unaccustomed to anything but you."
Yang Zhen cursed for a while, then felt a bit thirsty. He snorted coldly, "Not coming out, huh? Let this Sage of Saunter drink a bottle of '82 Water Spirit Essence, then we can continue cursing. By the way, where were we?"
"He's bald and doesn't need light bulbs..."
The Shameless Cat behind him was spitting as it gave a warning.
"Yes, you..." Yang Zhen was about to speak when a sigh came and said, "You failed, you ultimately failed, and I also failed. But... that's normal. No one can escape the will of heaven and earth. It's normal. Everyone failed."
"Damn, a last burst of energy before death?" Yang Zhen was startled. The guy who was just acting like he was going to die was now talking fluently, almost as good as that Flirtatious Chicken.
Clearly, the Shameless Cat heard this too, and its fur stood on end in fright. It arched its back, raised its tail, and assumed a fighting stance, but it was all for naught and only made things look rather comical.
Upon hearing this voice, Yang Zhen smirked and said, "Fellow villager, could you tell me first who I am? Am I also a reincarnated person?"
"No, you're not him, but you two have a similar aura."
"Maybe I'm a half-finished reincarnation. Didn't you just say you all failed? You know what a half-finished product is like. By the way, who are you, folks? You look pretty Niu Bi. Are you some kind of Great Devil King who destroyed the world?"
The voice laughed loudly, then sighed and said, "Interesting, quite interesting. The item is right here; whether you can obtain it depends on your fate. My time is almost up, this place should be returned to Three Flowers. She... is also a pitiful person; don't let her down!"
"Borrow my ass! If Yang Zhen didn't abandon any pitiful woman, even Yang Zhen family, which is in the real estate business, couldn't contain her!"
"Hey buddy, don't die yet! At least tell me who you are, and what's that thing? Aren't you going to give me any hints?"
"..."
The voice paused for a moment, then slowly spoke, "Life is but a dream, a thousand times over. If you can stay awake, don't fall asleep."
As he spoke, the overwhelming Evil Qi vanished, the entire platform began to dissipate, and with a crash, countless stones and earth fell. The terrifying iron chains, as if their disintegration program had been triggered, turned into countless specks and disappeared into the world.
Rumble!
Towering waves of energy descended from the sky, pouring into the entire Three Flowers Sacred Hall. Brilliant light and fragrant blossoms filled the air, transforming the Three Flowers Sacred Hall from a wicked Purgatory into a paradise on earth, breathtakingly beautiful and exuding a tranquil atmosphere. The gentle murmur of stringed instruments and soft whispers soothed the soul.
In mid-air, a gray bead without any aura floated slowly, as quiet as a newborn baby just falling asleep, its breath seemingly drawing in the entire world.
The Shameless Cat, looking completely bewildered, clung to Yang Zhen's trouser leg, staring blankly at the unbelievable scene before it. It exclaimed, "Damn it, this is what that guy left you? Unbelievable! This guy calls himself 'This Venerable One,' and keeps calling himself 'Three Flowers, Three Flowers,' he's clearly not just a Heavenly Venerable... Holy crap, he's a Saint Venerable?"
Yang Zhen ignored the Shameless Cat, glanced down at the Shameless Cat hanging on his trouser leg and swallowing incessantly, and muttered to himself, "He said this thing is back for me."
"Tch, fine, give it away, why say 'still'... What the hell did you just say, 'still'?" The Shameless Cat screeched, almost grabbing Yang Zhen's trouser leg and falling from mid-air.
"Kid, are you also a reincarnated person?"
He said, "I'm not!"
Do you believe it?
"Letter!"
What the hell is this about reincarnation? Yang Zhen a transmigrator, not a reincarnated one. He knows this better than anyone else in the Cultivation World.
