Bitter Realm: My Feet Step Through the Flames of War

"Even with our best efforts, some gems may still be overlooked."

Next, Ji Xiashang pondered how to invite the judges. Of the three judges, Butterfly Lord was paid to do the job, so he probably needed to prepare some gold.

The Heavenly Venerable Emperor's heir is going to trouble Master Jidao again.

It is said that Tianhuang Bu Lao Shao Duxing was forced into seclusion by Wu Jun, and whether he can return to the mountains is still unknown.

As for the contestants, Lao Gou and Dian Bu Luan are the mortal enemies of this Death Forbidden Decision. If the key is taken by the people of Tian Du, will they still attend this sword review meeting?

Hopefully, Huang Quan won't embarrass these two too much.

Those who were invited were sent with the Raven Soul and the Eternal Sky.

Ji Xiashang was having a headache from thinking about it. He put down the list, pushed open the door, and went out to enjoy the night view under the moonlight while continuing his search.

After walking only a few miles, a faint singing voice suddenly came from the mountains.

"Ok?"

Ji Xiashang listened for a moment and confirmed that it was singing. He then rushed toward the direction from which the sound came.

The singing grew louder and clearer, emanating from behind an incredibly smooth mountain wall. This mountain wall had been searched long ago and contained nothing unusual, yet now it was emitting a strange singing voice.

"...

Faith is scattered everywhere.

The destination has no direction.

I will create the future.

We must move forward.

I have already packed my bags.

A little light for the darkness

To enjoy disappointment in order to succeed

We must move forward.

Hahahahaha..."

Accompanying the melodious singing were dense drumbeats and joyful laughter, as if a group of people were dancing and celebrating on the mountainside.

Moving forward?

What do you mean?

Ji Xiashang was on guard. He reached out and gently pushed against the mountain wall, but unexpectedly, a tremendous force rebounded and sent him flying several steps away.

It's a barrier.

He was both surprised and delighted; it seemed that this was the Immortal Wall that the Martial Lord was looking for.

He raised his palm again, secretly channeling eighty percent of his power, and struck the stone wall with a bang.

With a bang, the force of the barrier's rebound also increased several times, not only pushing Ji Xiashang back more than ten feet away, but also abruptly stopping the singing and laughter inside the stone wall.

"We've been discovered. Retreat."

Ji Xiashang vanished instantly, followed by a flash of shadow on the stone wall, and several sharp auras silently rushed towards him.

The moonlight remained unchanged, and there was no movement. The shadow observed quietly for a while before retreating back into the mountainside.

At the same time, thousands of miles away in the Tiantian Coffin Shop, a person who had been asleep for a long time suddenly opened his eyes.

Under the lamplight, Zang Lanshan was talking to Shao Hao.

"I don't want your Death God's Four Gates. They're all monsters and demons, ugly and scary."

She almost didn't make it out of the four-level barrier. She barely passed the first level, but was knocked to the ground by the combined attack of the Grim Reaper in the second level.

"The Four Barriers of Death are there to protect you. No matter what kind of attack it is, as long as the energy is within three feet of you, it will trigger the Four Barriers of Death and drag the attacker into the barrier."

"What if it's a friendly sparring match between friends?"

Shao Hao paused for a moment: "I hadn't considered that. I can't yet distinguish whether the attacker is benevolent or malicious."

"So the four gates of death aren't that amazing."

"Please give me some more time, I will improve."

"No need for trouble... I am actually very grateful for your concern, but I don't know why you, as the noble God of the Dead Kingdom, would go to such lengths for me. Tell me your purpose."

Buried in the Blue Mountain, he wandered the world for hundreds of years, experiencing the full spectrum of human nature, and learned to be indifferent and have a heart of ice.

"Friends should naturally look after each other. My adoptive father saved me, protected me, and raised me without ever giving a reason. Did he need a reason?"

Zang Lanshan gazed into Shao Hao's clear eyes, which were like two azure gems, without a trace of impurity.

Instead, she herself was puzzled: "Isn't a reason needed?"

"No need, unless he's a bad person. Is Miss Lanshan a bad person?"

Am I a bad person? No.

Shao Hao smiled: "So, it's not wrong for me to care about you."

"But I'm very ugly."

A hint of confusion flashed in Shao Hao's eyes: "Do we need to look at someone's appearance when making friends?"

"Don't we need to consider appearance?"

"Of course not."

Zang Lanshan had a strange feeling. She felt that Shao Hao was wrong, but when she really wanted to refute him, she felt that he was right.

"Alright, then I'll accept your Four Death Trials. Thank you."

"No need to be so polite, we are friends."

"friend……"

Zang Lanshan pondered these two words. For hundreds of years, she had appeared in the world with a face more beautiful than Wu Yan, because she didn't need friends. Friends, at times, are the ones who stab you in the back.

But at this moment, the boy in front of her made her think that having a friend wouldn't be so bad.

"Tell me the story of the Land of the Dead again. Did that Yama King's Lock ever win the heart of the girl he loved?"

"He manages the fishpond very well, and I gave him a bonus. I heard he has already bought a small house in the capital of the Tower of Compassion. I don't know if the girl has accepted his marriage proposal."

"Where is Sirius? Is he still guarding Bai Xiaochai's grave at Lonely Star Cliff?"

"Yes, during the time I was in the Bitter Realm, he lived at Lone Star Cliff."

Zang Lanshan's eyes welled up with tears as he listened: "Sirius is so pitiful. Why not introduce him to the younger sister of the Twin Goddesses of Heaven, so that he can have a good home?"

Shao Hao shook his head: "Sirius will not be interested in any other girl."

"how about you?"

"I?"

Do you have a girl you like?

Shao Hao's handsome face instantly turned red: "I am only six years old. My godfather said that I can only get married when I am at least eighteen."

"what!"

Zang Lanshan jumped up: "Six years old!"

Shao Hao couldn't understand why the girl from Lanshan was so angry. Then he was pushed out the door and had no choice but to return to Tiandu that very night.

What neither he nor Zang Lanshan knew was that the eyes in the coffin in the backyard had not closed and had been quietly listening to their conversation.

The owner of Youmenglou was also awake that night.

A flower-decorated palanquin carried by four men quietly emerged from the Spring Night Dream Pavilion and headed towards the Boundless Abyss.

Bu Xiangchen lay reclining on the bridal sedan chair, accompanied by four strong men who served as sedan chair bearers, and Xiao Hualang also followed by her.

Now that the hunters have their eyes on the Spring Night Dream Pavilion, Bu Xiangchen decides to be the first to open the treasure in the mystery box.

"Hwarang, people die for wealth, birds die for food. How can I willingly be killed without seeing the treasure with my own eyes? Don't you agree?"

"Only Hua Jun killed people, how could Hua Jun be killed?"

Bu Xiangchen reached out from the flower carriage and pinched the little flower boy's cheek: "I just love your little mouth."

Hwa-lang complained, "Hwa-jun's heart is with that demon and that monk. He hasn't summoned me for days."

"Hahaha~"

"Does Hua Jun prefer Zang Yunxiao or Wang Chenyuan? They're staying here overnight more and more often. I don't believe they satisfy Hua Jun more than I do."

“They each have their strengths. Zang Yunxiao is immersed in the past, which makes me have to go to great lengths to help him move forward. As for Wang Chenyuan, even in the most emotional moments, he still didn’t tell me the whole truth. You should know that saying one thing and meaning another is a major taboo in Buddhist practice. I pity him because I fear he will not be able to achieve enlightenment.”

"Tch! A demon who doesn't understand romance, a Buddha who is obsessed with the sea of ​​desire."

The desolate land is a solitary peak that rises abruptly, reaching the highest point of the heavens and the lowest of the nine heavens.

Bu Xiangchen dismounted from the flower carriage and used her eighth-grade divine power. Vines sprouted from her feet, stretching rapidly towards the stars and moon, and soon climbed to the solitary peak opposite.

She walked slowly over, stepping on the green vines. The place was so secluded that neither the sky nor the ground could be seen; it was indeed a perfect hidden treasure trove.

Upon reaching the solitary peak, Bu Xiangchen placed his hand on the mountain wall and once again unleashed his divine power: "Three thousand sands and dust, eight directions of stone phosphorus, obey my command and decipher!"

At his command, the cliff seemed to respond to his commands, and began to undergo astonishing changes.

Just as the passage was about to appear, an unexpected event occurred: a strange aura erupted from the cliff and rushed towards Bu Xiangchen.

Hwalang exclaimed, "Hwa-kun!"

In a split second, Bu Xiangchen retreated back onto the vines, using the leverage to return to this side of the cliff.

"It was a close call, but I will not let Hwalang down."

Bu Xiangchen opened the golden treasure box in her hand, revealing a gold coin inside.

She picked up the gold coin and examined it by the moonlight. The coin was no different from any other, except that it had a lifelike lion on it.

Chapter 210 The Little Fox and the Dog

Wang Chenyuan and Huangquan reached a cooperation agreement, and the Desire Realm acted immediately, first targeting the old dog who had no organizational background.
