464 A Vista at the End of the Tunnel (1/2)

The edge of the demon world was already in sight.

The shattered starry sky was glittering in the front. The space debris danced disorderly in the breeze, and the rolling bright red clouds in the sky reflected down the flame and illuminated the future. Along the way, there were no surprises. The raging black tide that had ravaged this world seemed to have been too late to stop the lead disciples of the Five Uniques of the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals from going home.

It was undoubtedly a gratifying thing for them to be able to obtain important intelligence in the demon world and then triumphantly return home safely. However, all the five of them kept their silent, unable to squeeze out even a little bit of joyful expression.

The sacrifice of the two demon girls seemed like a really heavy burden on the five of them. Even Qiong Hua who had the most extreme stand in her view of immortals and demons appeared listless.

The two demon girls were indeed successful. Although they didn't even leave their name, their fortitude was forever etched in the people's mind.

It was not demon heart, but even more than that. The demon race was indeed a race that was best at playing with the demon heart. And as the royal family of the demon race, they were even more so.

During this silence, the five of them finally entered the broken space. However, when they set foot on the edge of the world, no matter how listless and unenthusiastic they were, they had to raise their spirit in order to be able to respond to any change that might happen. Here the space was broken and murderous intent lurked everywhere. If they were careless for even a bit, they would be cut into mincemeat by the space debris. It would be too ironical if the five of them could actually survive the black tide that devastated the land but actually fall short on the finish line.

Surprisingly, however, when they set foot on the edge of the world, they found out that the space was far calmer than what they had expected. The dazzling starry sky seemed to come from a remote distant place.

”Is this supposed to be the edge of the world? Ahead of us should be the void, right?” Zhou Mumu asked in a puzzled voice, ”Why does it feel like there's a strong sense of vitality in front of me?”

”Oh, is it because you're about to be born?” Wang Lu casually blurted out.

”... Don't think that since our friendship is close, I'm not willing to beat you up.”

”Perhaps in front of us is Nine Regions? The two worlds have merged, that's why you feel the vitality from the Nine Regions?” Wang Lu's perception wasn't that keen, so he just thoughtlessly guessed.

”It's not the same. I don't smell any flavor of the Nine Regions, but just the stink of demon race!”

After Zhou Mumu had finished talking, Zhan Ziye also said in amazement, ”All the indicators here are abnormal and can't be explained by any existing theory!”

”Mm, you may consider staying here for a year or two. We will remember to burn incense for you from Nine Regions.”

Compared to Zhou Mumu and Zhan Ziye whose attention kept on shifting to any issue that arose, Wang Lu right now just wanted to return to the Nine Regions as soon as possible. The trip to the demon world was really too uncomfortable.

Thereupon he took the lead, propping up his Non-Phase Sword Defense in this broken space. Within this sword defense, any evil things could not invade.

The several lead disciples walked beside Wang Lu. Feeling the gentle but tough sword qi, each of them had their own thought.

While they were moving ahead, Qiong Hua suddenly spoke, ”The Non-Phase Sword Defense of Junior Brother Wang seems to be more refined. Perhaps among the current cultivators, no one on the same level as you could pierce through it.”

In light of the relationship between Wang Lu and Qiong Hua, it was hard to imagine she would express her praise and appreciation of Wang Lu so openly. However, if someone familiar with Qiong Hua heard about this, he or she would certainly know that this was due to Qiong Hua's pride as a sword cultivator.

Because of her pride, she would not begrudge others for their attainment. Because this appreciation could not shake her confidence in herself. It was also because of pride that she could not tolerate herself to be petty like a small child. The perfectness of Wang Lu's Non-Phase Sword Defense was obvious to all. Even if she didn't say it, couldn't the other lead disciples not see it?

Wang Lu himself was a bit surprised by this. After casting Qiong Hua a sidelong glance, he just sneered but didn't bicker with her as usual.

Non-Phase Sword Defense was indeed powerful, but it was also a joke to say that it was invincible to all that on the same level as him. Perhaps taking Qiong Hua's swordsmanship as an example, under her Kill Immortal Sword, Wang Lu would be powerless… And Wang Lu clearly knew that in the Spirit Sword Mountain, there were two girls who absolutely had the ability to pierce on-the-same-level-as-them Non-Phase Sword Defense.

Although the IQ of the two of them did not necessarily match up with that of Qiong Hua… otherwise, he would not be deeply regarded by the Elders of Heavenly Sword Hall and be trained to be the lead disciple when his cultivation base has yet to take shape...

Just as he was thinking about this, suddenly in front of them, there was a bright light. Unknowingly, the five of them had just crossed the chaotic edge into a new world.

However, faced with this new world, the several of them were completely stunned that they could not even speak at all.
