174: Chapter 173 Return to the Main World

"Little friend, this old man should go with you. After staying here for so long, it's good to move around and have a proper talk with Evil Intent."

The old man spoke calmly.

But Ye Xiu grew even more uneasy.

This old man was too mysterious and had a heavy killing intent; his years of cultivation hadn't seemed to wear away his hostility.

If he entered the Main World, it might not be a good thing.

But there was no other way right now.

Circumstances were more powerful than the individual.

Hum...

At the end of the rosy light, it was pitch black.

"We're here, Senior. Let's go."

Ye Xiu gave a soft shout and entered the darkness directly.

When the two entered the passage, a wave of malice appeared instantly, and the gloomy old man from before appeared before them.

"Evil Intent, long time no see. Guixu is in chaos, why not go out?"

The old man walked in front of Ye Xiu, his brilliant divine light not only illuminating the entire passage but also blocking all the malice.

"Ming, I didn't think you would actually come out, hahaha..."

The old man, Evil Intent, laughed morbidly: "Guixu has changed greatly, the shackles are no more, the time has come to take over the body."

"Evil, we were too naive back then. Over the endless years, I have come to understand the Master's intentions. Why persist in your obsession?"

"Master? Hehe... Ming, you're actually pretending to be a good person..."

As the words fell...

A terrifying power of death erupted in the passage.

"Little friend, you go out first. I will handle the rest."

Ming waved his hand slightly, and a beam of divine light broke through all obstacles, carrying Ye Xiu rapidly toward the exit of the passage.

Evil Intent did not stop him.

It walked step by step toward Ming, the terrifying power of death nearly bursting the entire passage.

Ming smiled.

...

...

Inside the cave.

Ye Xiu looked at the trembling pitch-black passage behind him and shook his head slightly.

The higher the cultivation level, the easier it was for this kind of personality split to occur, commonly known as a Heart Demon.

Isn't the so-called Evil Intent just a Heart Demon?

He didn't pay much attention to the battle inside the passage; he looked at the passage where the darkness had faded significantly, and the Crawlers that had existed on a large scale were nowhere to be seen.

Although he didn't know what had happened.

At this moment, there was no time to focus on that.

He took a step.

And rushed directly out of the cave.

Leaping into the air, he rushed quickly toward the exit of Guixu.

High in the sky.

The darkness had faded a lot, and the original restrictions of Guixu had dropped to a bearable level.

Ye Xiu looked at the ground below.

His expression changed drastically; for the first time in Guixu, he showed a look of horror.

The entire land was actually formed from a corpse.

The plains were the abdomen, the hills were protruding bones, and that bottomless black abyss was the navel.

And the cave he had been in before...

Was actually two nostrils.

No wonder a world could exist at the end of the passage.

It turned out to be the Sea of Consciousness of the corpse.

Who is he?

The Lord of Guixu?

Ye Xiu's expression shifted, but he didn't have much time to think. His Immortal Power erupted, and he directly crossed the corpse area, finally arriving at the exit of Guixu.

It had already closed.

Not a single crack remained.

"Open!"

A startled shout.

His Immortal Power fully erupted, and a fist light with the momentum to destroy heaven and earth smashed against the Boundary Wall.

Boom...

Guixu trembled.

Ye Xiu, who had reached the Immortal King Domain, actually couldn't break through the Boundary Wall of Guixu with a full-strength strike.

He looked at the Boundary Wall, which showed no abnormalities.

His heart sank.

The fist light surged again, smashing fiercely against the Boundary Wall.

Boom...

The sound of vibration did not stop once it began.

After reaching the Immortal King level...

Immortal Power was inexhaustible, even though the consumption of the Heavenly Emperor Fist was terrifying.

But for Ye Xiu...

As long as it wasn't a Peak-level battle and he only used the Heavenly Emperor Fist alone, he could still sustain it.

Under Ye Xiu's high-intensity eruption...

No part of Guixu was at peace.

Several hours later.

Ming arrived at the Boundary Wall.

"Little friend, let this old man do it."

Ye Xiu looked at the old man who suddenly appeared beside him and frowned slightly: "Senior, have you absorbed the Evil Intent?"

"We were the same person to begin with, so there's no talk of absorption. Besides, the Main World doesn't seem peaceful. If I can't return to my Peak, even if I go out, I might still be bullied by some old friends."

Ming sighed slightly.

His eyes, once full of divine light, were now tinged with a hint of cloudiness.

"Senior, you still have old friends alive?"

A flash of solemnity appeared in Ye Xiu's eyes.

This old man was from the same era as the Lord of Guixu and hadn't entered the Boundary Sea.

Could someone else from that era have survived?

Ming sighed softly: "With Gu's talent, I'm afraid he won't die so easily. If I appear, Gu might return once again."

"Do you have a grudge?"

"No, but if I emerge, Gu will start overthinking."

"Please explain, Senior."

Ming shook his head and didn't explain further.

A divine light lit up in Guixu, and the originally indestructible Boundary Wall was immediately sliced open.

"Go."

With a soft shout from Ming...

Ye Xiu stopped asking questions and rushed directly out of the Guixu world, entering the endless Void Realm.

Crack...

The Main World was shaking.

Even in the endless Void Realm, one could clearly feel the changes in the Main World.

"The Ninth Tidal Change?"

Looking at the changes in the Main World.

Ye Xiu took a step and arrived directly within the Main World.

"General... you've had a Breakthrough..."

Ji Xingyue looked at the suddenly arriving Ye Xiu, a hint of grievance flashing in her Double Pupils.

Is that so.

No matter how strong or rational she was...

In front of Ye Xiu, she was still influenced by the Yaomei personality, showing emotions that a human should have.

"You... Xing Mu... this..."

Ye Xiu looked at Ji Xingyue, his brow furrowing into a deep frown.

After becoming an Immortal King...

Not only did he receive an epic boost in combat power...

But his perception and vision were also greatly enhanced.

Many things he couldn't see through before could now be seen directly to their Origin with almost a single glance.

The current Ji Xingyue...

In his eyes, her power of Origin was no longer the Way of Time and Space of the Double Pupils, but the exact same power of Origin as Xing Mu's.

This power of Origin is the true essence of a person's existence.

Only after stepping into the realm of a true Transcendent can it be condensed, like a life imprint that can never be changed.

As long as the Origin is not destroyed...

Even if one's body and Dao perish, they can still revive over endless years.

Ji Xingyue and Xing Mu's Origins were actually identical.

"Why is it like this..."

Ye Xiu turned his head to look at Xing Mu above the sky, and with just one glance, he saw many unbelievable things.

Beneath that cold and indifferent face...

There were two different Primordial Spirits. The tsundere cute girl he was familiar with before was currently sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed in the Sea of Consciousness.

When Ye Xiu looked over...

The cross-legged Xing Mu seemed to sense something.

The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and she opened her eyes, revealing a very familiar smile.

"Back then... you... chose to slumber..."

Xing Mu's indifferent expression shifted, and her cold aura disappeared at this moment.

She took a step.

And arrived directly beside the three of them.

After sizing Ye Xiu up for a while...

She gave a giggling laugh: "Xiao Ye, after not seeing you for so many years, I didn't expect you to have attained the Immortal rank. Unlike me, who is still comprehending the Three Souls into One method."
