Bitter Realm: My Feet Step Through the Flames of War

Under the scorching sun, there was no shelter whatsoever.

Qi Luosheng was dragged by the old dog to sit on a large rock, and he was practically melting from the sun.

The old dog still wore his thick dog-head mask, with a piece of straw he had casually plucked in his mouth.

Qi Luosheng glanced to the side and saw only a string of water droplets rolling down. He couldn't help but ask, "Are you crying? Is it because you can't find him?"

"No. It's just that the autumn heat is really intense right now, and it's too hot wearing this dog-head mask."

"Then why not take off the mask?"

"My face is too ugly, I don't like looking at it. It looks better with a dog head on."

"You... are really strange."

"What's so strange?"

"Perhaps your understanding of dogs is different from that of most people."

Qi Luosheng raised his hand and looked at the heavy iron rings and chains. After spending these days together, he tried to understand the man in front of him and persuade him to let him leave.

Unfortunately, the man's mental state was not very good. He seemed unable to understand normal reasoning and just stubbornly waited in this place, from day to night, and from night to day.

Qi Luosheng abandoned the idea of ​​talking and stared at the distant river, recalling again and again the moments when he and Yi Qixing drank and sang together.

Just then, the Three Venerables of Cleansing arrived forcefully, surrounding the area from three sides.

"Prey, prepare to die!"

The old dog stood up, stretched his limbs, and drew his bone knife: "Let's fight."

Chi Hui Cihang made the first move, striking with his whisk, which stirred up a hurricane that blew away dust and entangled the bone blade.

"Wisdom and Anger Blood Crossing, drink!"

With a swing of the bone knife, the whisk crumbled, a few wisps of dust fluttered, and the bone knife moved forward, slashing straight at the nun's arm.

Having failed in one move, Chi Hui Cihang retreated swiftly and then opened his palm again, his immense Buddhist power transforming into a blood-red shadow that charged at the old dog.

The old dog spun around to dodge, wielding his bone knife with seemingly no moves, yet every strike aimed straight for vital points, cleaving the sky and clouds horizontally, and splitting mountains and peaks vertically.

After a few moves, the nun was forced into a frantic state. Seeing that she was in trouble, the other two quickly stepped in, forming a three-person formation.

In their long cultivation, the three deities of the Desire Realm achieved a state of unity of origin, enabling them to transfer power and influence each other. Furthermore, their combined power technique reached its pinnacle.

The three worked together seamlessly and quickly subdued the old dog.

The nun unleashed her killing intent again: "Crimson Serpent Dyes!"

Wu Jie Bei Hang used a string of five-colored ring beads. As his true energy circulated, the ring beads emitted five-colored radiance, which shone brightly in contrast to the nun's blood-red whisk: "Heaven has no righteous law!"

Xuan Ding Nu Hang is the Buddha's palm: "The Mysterious Dharma is Impermanent!"

Despite the combined attack of the three, the old dog showed no fear. He doubled the speed of his bone blade, and in an instant, the blade shadows flowed like water, sometimes real, sometimes illusory, countless in number, making it impossible for the three to distinguish between human figures and blade shadows.

Qi Luosheng watched coldly as one man wielded a sword. The man moved like a soaring eagle, and the sword resembled a crescent moon, appearing and stopping in an instant, yet the intent of the sword flowed endlessly.

Such superb swordsmanship, why does it feel so familiar?

The sword marks that were difficult for the Three Venerables of Cleansing Sins to catch were crystal clear in Qi Luosheng's eyes. He could even predict in advance what the old dog's next move would be, where it would strike, and what kind of impact it would have on the three enemies.

Unbeknownst to her, Qi Luosheng raised her bound hands and began to fight with her fingers as knives.

He imitated the old dog's swordsmanship while using his own Jiangshan Quick Blade to counter it.

After a few demonstrations, Jiangshan Kuaidao was cut in half, and he lost his ability to fight.

Qi Luosheng broke out in a cold sweat. No matter how he attacked, there was only one outcome: defeat.

He stopped and observed the situation on the field again. The Three Venerables of Cleansing Sins had already suffered multiple injuries, but Bone Blade was becoming more and more deadly, and Old Dog's figure was becoming more and more frenzied.

The old dog even barked, "Woof woof woof~ woof woof~," as if mocking the three's incompetence.

Having suffered such a great humiliation, Wu Jie Bei Hang roared in anger: "The Dark Tide of the Blood Sea, Heaven Has No Righteous Law!"

It was the combined attack of the three deities that instantly unleashed a storm of blood and gore from the sky, seemingly gathering all the evil in the world and transforming it into a monstrous massacre.

Crimson red dyed the wilderness, reflecting the true faces of the three Buddhas. Where was there any trace of the Buddha's compassion and tranquility, only the ruthlessness and cruelty of the demons?

The transformation from Buddha to demon can happen in an instant.

The old dog sensed the pressure, and seemingly out of a wielder's instinct, it thrust its bone blade upwards, slicing through the blue sky.

"Shadow Strike, woof!"

A blade's shadow rises from nothingness and falls into the void.

Everyone has a shadow, but his sword shadow transcends the human shadow, falling before time itself.

Qi Luosheng realized that the old dog's secret to swordsmanship was time. His sword was not only fast, but so fast that it allowed him to escape the control of time and trap his opponent in the time trap.

"Uh~"

"Pfft~"

"retreat!"

The Three Venerables of Cleansing Sins fled the battlefield in a sorry state.

The old dog wiped his sweat and panted, "It's so hot, so hot."

Qi Luosheng offered the same suggestion: "Take off the dog's head."

"I'm too ugly."

"..."

"Good dog, why don't you take this opportunity to leave?"

"I'm so engrossed in watching your swordsmanship that I'm thinking about how to defeat you. After I defeat you, I will leave."

"Your knife may be good, but you are ultimately just my dog."

Qi Luosheng closed his eyes. The old dog's move was already etched in his mind. Since the Jiangshan Quick Blade didn't work, he would try a different kind of sword technique.

On a deserted island in a dark cave, Yi Qixing is trapped in a nightmare...

In his dream, Qi Luosheng's hands were bound, and he was getting further and further away from him. No matter how he reached out, he could not reach his brother's figure.

"brother!"

"Ouch~~"

A dog's bark woke Yi Qixing from his dream. He opened his eyes and saw a white-furred, red-nosed mastiff crouching in front of him, looking at him with concern.

Seeing that he had woken up, the mastiff stood up happily and circled around Yi Qixing.

"Did you bring me here? Thank you... I never imagined that a swordsman of this generation would be saved by a mastiff, haha."

Yi Qixing let out several bitter laughs, laughing at his former high position and at his current fall from grace. So many lofty ambitions have been swept away by the wind and rain, leaving only a bitter taste and a body covered in wounds.

The mastiff seemed to sense his mood, lowering its head and nuzzling him with its large, furry head, which warmed Yi Qixing's heart.

He stroked the mastiff: "To stop is to admit defeat. I cannot give up. Let's go find our brothers together."

"Ouch~~"

Yi Qixing stood up, but stumbled. His body, severely injured by the Ghostly Desolation Hell Transformation, could not support him and vomited a mouthful of crimson blood.

Just as his injuries were recurring, the mastiff emitted a strange heat from its mouth, and Yi Qixing immediately felt his injuries ease.

"How could it be Yin Yuan?"

He was completely baffled, but the mastiff couldn't answer him; it just stayed close by his side.

The man and his dog left the cave and continued their search for Qi Luosheng in the martial world.

At this moment, Yin Canglang rushed to report from the main hall of the Battle Cloud Realm.

"Master, we've found the whereabouts of Yin Yuan."

"where is it?"

Yin Canglang dared not conceal the truth: "It was on a mastiff, and it was with the peerless genius."

"Ok?"

"We are currently outside the Heaven-Crushing Path."

Before Yin Canglang could finish speaking, Yu Yutianjiao's figure flickered and he descended to the lower realm, arriving at the Collapsing Heaven Path.

"A peerless genius".

"I've already said it: I'll give you the crystals, and you'll give me my freedom."

Yu Yu Tianjiao, the mastiff: "I have come for Yin Yuan."

The mastiff seemed to sense the danger, twisted its body, hid behind Yi Qixing, and peeked at Yu Yutianjiao with half of its face showing.

"It saved my life, and I will not allow you to harm it."

"You should know how important Yin Yuan is to the Cloud Realm and even the Four Wonders. This is not the time for you to act recklessly."

Yi Qixing stopped Yu Yutianjiao and said to the mastiff, "Go, go quickly!"

"Yin Yuan Wu Zhan Yun Jie must retrieve it! Drink!"

Yu Yutianjiao unleashed a bolt of lightning at the mastiff, instantly tearing its skin and causing it to collapse in agony.

"Ouch~~"

A deafening roar echoed through the air, a testament to the mastiff's bewilderment and its unyielding spirit.

"Stop! I won't allow you to hurt it!"

"For the sake of the Battle Cloud Realm, even if you, a peerless genius, step forward, I will not show any mercy. Step aside!"

"drink!"

Yi Qixing swept his whisk and attacked Yu Yu Tianjiao.

Seeing that Yi Qixing was determined to stop him, Yu Yutianjiao immediately opened his palms, and the wind and clouds changed rapidly, with lightning raging. One palm met the whisk, and the other slammed into the mastiff.

Yi Qixing was still recovering from his serious injuries. When the two forces clashed, he was knocked back with a bang.

Just as the mastiff was in grave danger, a blade of light descended from the sky, severing Kuang Lei Li Zhang's attack.

"Dare to touch my little peach, or you'll die a horrible death!"
