Six Paths Squad Appears

Bai Cangshu twitched his nose. The faintly unusual sweet scent in the air was incomparably obvious to a powerful Martial Artist with a superhuman body like his.

He looked up at the sky. Faint ripples began flowing through the void, with neither source nor end.

Those ripples were somewhat similar to the power of Heart Light Pulse, yet not entirely the same. They carried an even more evil, even more exalted essence, while being completely stripped of self-will.

It was the Avatar of some concept, a collective embodiment of desires taken to their utmost limit.

The smile at the corner of Bai Cangshu’s lips widened. He almost wanted to applaud that madman Ruofeng Lin. He had to retract his earlier judgment; Ruofeng Lin’s previous actions probably all had an explanation now.

The countless white bones beneath Lanruo City had been arranged into a formation. Bai Cangshu had assumed it was simply the ghost city’s own array, but then he recalled that City God’s imperial appointment from the Yin Moon Dynasty.

And the Yin Moon Dynasty was, in truth, a demon dynasty influenced by the Moon Demon. After merging with the Moon Demon, Ruofeng Lin possessed more than enough means to interfere with that dynasty.

He had long possessed the ability to secretly complete rituals in various places.

Buzz!

The Battle Aura blade condensed in Qiqi’s hand was like a high-speed vibrating saw. It became increasingly unstable, capable of slicing through the surrounding space at any moment.

Yet Bai Cangshu still did not let go.

"Miss Qiqi, don’t you understand yet? Ruofeng Lin isn’t a traitor~"

Though his words were arbitrary, he believed that no normal person who betrayed one world for another would choose to introduce a Chaos God into their own world.

The Chaos Gods from the Warhammer World setting were practically synonymous with chaos and disorder.

In a world as boundlessly vast as Warhammer World, they could still throw the entire world into turmoil. In a conventional setting centered around a single planet or world, the effects these evil gods would cause would be even more terrifying.

Ruofeng Lin’s spirit body watched from the sky as the ritual activated normally. Seven Nights Demon Lord had unusually made no intervention, and more importantly, Qiqi, who had been hunting him all this time, had actually been stopped by her helper, Mercenary Tao!

After only a moment of thought, Ruofeng Lin roughly understood Mercenary Tao’s mindset.

This was an intelligent Reincarnator, but also someone who would stop at nothing.

The other party had already understood the purpose of his actions and accepted them accordingly. He had begun preventing Qiqi’s "irrational behavior."

Heh, Mercenary Tao… he really was a reliable fellow.

Ruofeng Lin had been among the first batches sent into the Native World: Nine Realms, and he had also been among the earliest to realize the truth that the Infinite Dimensional Space was about to begin an interdimensional war.

The Celestial Dynasty of the Vault of Heaven was so powerful that it nearly drove Ruofeng Lin to despair. No matter how hard he thought, he could not imagine how the Reincarnators could gain an opportunity to contend with such a force in such a short time.

The Infinite Dimensional Space could indeed send Reincarnators into various worlds to obtain information and rewards, but the Celestial Dynasty of the Vault of Heaven could do the same.

A place known as Six Paths Space could likewise select all sorts of people from its world and send them into worlds of various types, using merit to study and exchange for cultivation techniques and secret treasures.

Unlike the Reincarnators, that world already possessed all kinds of powerful Cultivation Methods. In other words, the Reincarnators were facing a group that was naturally capable of cultivation and combat, and whose members could also rapidly grow stronger.

Ruofeng Lin eventually confirmed that the world he had entered was the Human Realm where the Nine Realms was located. By the classifications familiar to Reincarnators, it was likely a world setting similar to The Perfect World.

That world setting was the final straw that broke Ruofeng Lin.

Unlike the others, who were considering ways to steal various techniques and rewards from that Human Realm, Ruofeng Lin knew very well that if it truly was the setting of The Perfect World, then the existences Beyond the Shore had already blocked the path of latecomers like the Infinite Dimensional Space.

In The Perfect World setting, the power level of those Beyond the Shore was too high. They could completely control the past, present, and future, transcend the river of time, and reverse karma at will. Such beings had practically occupied every possibility in the world.

Simply thinking about it was enough to bring despair.

Fortunately, when Ruofeng Lin was sent in a second time, he discovered that the Celestial Dynasty of the Vault of Heaven had also undergone changes. The theoretical scene of those Beyond the Shore acting to seal off every possibility had not appeared.

The conflict between the Primordial Dragon Court and the Celestial Dynasty of the Vault of Heaven had reached a world-level scale. Spiritual energy was drying up, Immortals and Buddhas were falling into the mortal world—this was not a result that those Beyond the Shore could have tolerated. It seemed more like something had gone wrong with the world itself.

In the end, Ruofeng Lin made his choice…

Step!

Footsteps sounded behind Bai Cangshu. His pupils instantly shifted from Ruofeng Lin’s spirit body to behind him, and a line of blood had already appeared on his forehead.

Silver-gray long hair drifted behind him. The scarlet Battle Aura blade Bai Cangshu held scattered into streaks of radiance. Life of Silence seemed to have directly shattered his aura blade, then used that ability to Teleport behind her target and slash Bai Cangshu in a single strike.

Buzz!

The next moment, a scarlet bloodline slashed directly at the Moon Demon whom Bai Cangshu had smashed into the ground. Yet before the Moon Demon could howl, golden aura pierced through his head like a laser.

Pfft!

Amid the spraying blood, the Moon Demon died before Life of Silence’s ability could take effect, only to be reborn again because of his resentment.

Qiqi abruptly turned her head. The killing intent in her eyes could no longer be concealed. She looked extremely unstable now; the killing intent she could usually suppress only by immersing herself entirely in video games began spreading without limit.

Seeing this, Bai Cangshu showed no intention of backing down. Instead, he directly removed the black earring from beside his ear.

Satsui no Hado restriction lifted!

You have removed the item: Satsui Seal: Forbidden

Energy system: Satsui no Hado greatly enhanced

You are suffering erosion from Satsui no Hado

Scarlet Sheen flashed through Bai Cangshu’s eyes. That magma-hot killing intent flowed through his cold nerves and blood vessels.

A great deal of damage appeared in an instant, only to be repaired the next moment.

He exhaled a breath of turbid air mixed with scarlet mist. Bai Cangshu’s body had slightly expanded, and he could feel that he was now able to withstand the Satsui no Hado that had once directly destroyed his sanity.

At last, he said with a sigh, "Whatever happens next, I’m not taking responsibility for it~"

The next moment, Bai Cangshu bent his knees, while Qiqi simultaneously pointed that scarlet Battle Aura blade at him.

Even from nearly a hundred meters away, merely being targeted by that aura blade made Bai Cangshu feel its sharp cutting force upon his skin. It ground against the Three Parts Return to Origin Force, creating sparks from thin air.

Seven Nights Demon Lord frowned. His right hand remained pressed against the One Evening Sword at his waist, the Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique held in reserve without being unleashed.

He had received astonishing news from the strange man calling himself Mercenary Tao, and that man had also given him a choice that was difficult to refuse.

Thus, he had chosen to abandon their fight to the death. But when he came back to his senses, that man had already begun slaughtering his former companions.

Buzz!

A scarlet fan-shaped curtain, like a vast screen connecting heaven and earth, sliced from the center toward the mountains behind it.

Seven Nights Demon Lord moved, turning into a streak of light to avoid it. But the next instant, countless buzzing sounds rang out, like cicadas beating their wings.

His pupils contracted as he saw hundreds of terrifying scarlet curtains erupt from the place where the two were fighting.

Boom!

At that moment, the first scarlet curtain that missed its target crossed nearly ten thousand meters and cut into the mountains. Amid terrifying rumbling, one corner of the range collapsed.

The destructive power of a Top-tier Swordplay Reincarnator was on full display.

And seeing that terrifying sword technique burst apart like a lotus flower, Seven Nights instantly realized that the royal capital of the Great Gan Dynasty would cease to exist in the next moment.

From up close, Bai Cangshu saw Qiqi’s figure seem to transform into three heads and six arms in an instant. Scarlet killing intent covered her entire body, as though she had been completely dominated by it.

As a user of Satsui no Hado, Bai Cangshu’s state of mind instead calmed in an instant. He switched his mindset at once, becoming like a Heartless Puppet, completely unaffected by the blazing Satsui no Hado.

Buzz, buzz~

Amid the crisscrossing sword aura, Bai Cangshu’s body merely swayed slightly before passing straight through it. His body seemed as though it did not exist in this world.

But in reality, just before sword aura capable of crossing ten thousand meters in an instant touched his body, Bai Cangshu perfectly evaded it by moving almost flush against the aura.

This was the Zero Realm. This was Musō Tensei, one of the ultimate realms of martial arts!

The instant Bai Cangshu passed through that lotus-like sword aura, before Life of Silence could react, he exhaled and shouted at close range.

"Ha!"

As his cheapest move and also the one with the greatest area-of-effect explosive power, World-Shaking Thunder Roar could receive bonuses from nearly all of Bai Cangshu’s abilities.

The reason Bai Cangshu had not activated his current limit of Sixfold Kaio-ken was to retain completely controllable energy intensity, allowing him to use Musō Tensei at any time. With the aura from Four Times Kaio-ken, the destructive force he could unleash was extraordinarily terrifying.

Boom!

Golden lightning, blue-white thunderlight, and scarlet Satsui no Hado all contracted inward like nuclear fusion. They collapsed along with the turning magnetic field before finally exploding with a thunderous blast.

Endless white light exploded before Life of Silence. Terrifying heat and lightning pierced through her body at once.

The next moment, as destructive energy spread outward, countless humans who had not yet been killed by Ruofeng Lin’s ritual simultaneously exploded.

While the scent of pleasure still faintly lingered in the air, the stench of blood already soared into the sky.

Ruofeng Lin’s spirit body immediately received a revelation. His Spiritual Perception told him that this was an unprecedented opportunity.

The second ring instantly lit up with red light.

"Blood for the Blood God, skulls for the Skull Throne!"

You have come into contact with the special ritual: Evil God Descent

Another notification appeared. Bai Cangshu lowered his head and looked at the bloodline spreading across his chest. A cruel smile appeared at the corner of his lips. The next moment, he lowered his head, grabbed his own chest, and tore it apart to both sides.

Pfft!

The horrifying wound instantly widened until he had nearly torn himself completely apart.

Bai Cangshu realized that Life of Silence’s offensive power was astonishing. Even beneath the explosion of World-Shaking Thunder Roar, she had still counterattacked with a sword strike that slashed through energy of that level and hit him.

Moreover, the immunity-negating ability carried by the Life of Silence title meant that he had no way to resist this damage at all.

If he fought Life of Silence one-on-one, it would probably become an extraordinarily bloody battle of trading wounds for wounds.

Qiqi’s chest injury was horrific. Having taken a terrifying move like World-Shaking Thunder Roar at close range, her chest had nearly been blasted through, exposing white bone.

But the next moment, bloodlines flowed backward from the blood blade in her hand into her body, and she immediately began healing.

Life of Silence was not the type that relied on bloodline-based regeneration. On the contrary, she sustained herself through battle and extended her life through killing.

Her eyes were bloodshot. Mercenary Tao’s strength had stimulated the killing intent in her heart, and she shouted in a low voice.

"Die!"

In an instant, Mercenary Tao, Seven Nights Demon Lord, and the Moon Demon, who had just revived, all felt a chill in their hearts. The next moment, a figure flashed into existence behind the three of them.

The scarlet aura blade swept upward.

Buzz! Clang! Pfft!

Three different sounds rang out. The aura blade passed across Mercenary Tao’s neck as if cutting through air. Qiqi realized that Mercenary Tao possessed some sort of "invincibility" ability that allowed him to evade her attacks.

Seven Nights Demon Lord, who had remained vigilant with his technique held in reserve, instantly drew his sword and blocked the attack. Only the Moon Demon was incapable of resistance and was beheaded.

The Moon Demon had delicate features, and Ruofeng Lin could also be considered handsome. Yet their expressions were entirely different. The Moon Demon was terrified, while Ruofeng Lin wore a calm smile.

He knew that his plan was about to succeed.

"Qiqi, hold on a little longer. You’ll be able to kill me soon."

Though his words sounded like mockery, his tone was gentle, and his expression was the same as when he had once stood firmly behind the girl.

That posture only made Qiqi’s killing intent surge further.

The illusory ripples behind her grew increasingly intense.

Kill. Kill him. Kill everyone. Kill, kill, kill!

Her Heart Light Pulse drew ever closer to taking shape.

Bai Cangshu tapped the ground with the tips of his toes, his body swaying lightly. Just as he prepared to close in and launch a direct assault on Life of Silence, he suddenly felt the space behind him ripple strangely.

His entire body froze in an instant. The next moment, several figures appeared out of thin air five hundred meters behind him.

There were four of them, all human in appearance, each dressed in brocade robes and carrying a long sword.

These were…

Reincarnators?!

No, they were something like Reincarnators from this world!

Warning: Special unit, Six Paths Squad, has appeared!

Reincarnators, evacuate immediately.

Special mission: Interdimensional Extermination activated.

Mission description: You have encountered the special unit, Six Paths Squad. They are enemies from another space. Do your utmost to kill them.

Mission reward: For each person killed, you will receive a B- to S-rank Singularity according to the target's level, and will forcibly obtain a Drop Card.

Bai Cangshu’s eyes shifted. The name Six Paths Squad made him understand something in an instant. At that moment, among the opposing group, a woman in purple robes looked in his direction and revealed a strange smile.

The next moment, the woman formed a hand seal.

"Wusheng Laomu, Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss!"

Then she pointed at Bai Cangshu from hundreds of meters away.
