Damn it, something's wrong with the gacha I got.

Forget it, now is not the time to talk about this. We still need to find other people.

He just used the Armored Warrior's [Demon-Sealing Slash] skill to directly reduce the size of this strange tree, making it appear like a two-dimensional object.

It's time to go find Himeko and A-xing.

With that thought, Chen Bai put the Demon-Sealing Talisman of the [Thousand-Faced Tree of Eerie Joy] into his Emperor Belt.

Passing through layers of ruins and lingering mutated mist, he soon encountered Danheng, Sunday, and March 7th cleaning up the remaining mutated seedlings on the other side of the street.

"March!"

A familiar shout came from the front, and March 7, who was repelling a mutated spawn, suddenly turned around.

When she clearly saw that figure with an aura of absolute dominance, her eyes widened instantly:

"Who's calling us? Wait! That's Ah Bai's voice?!"

"it's me."

Chen Bai nodded slightly and replied in a steady voice.

Dan Heng and Sunday, having just finished clearing out the last wave of monsters, also turned their heads in surprise at the unprecedentedly cool armor on the body.

"Ah Bai, is this your new form? It's so cool!"

March 7th curiously approached, its eyes full of wonder.

"Yes, I've already dealt with that Thousand-Faced Tree. By the way, do you know where the others are?"

Chen Bai responded.

Dan Heng shook his head slightly, his expression solemn:

"I don't know. That Annihilation Lord scattered us all. Currently, we can only contact Ying, Paimon, and Mr. Undying. We can't contact Xing for the time being."

"Then let's first connect Ying and Paimon, and then search for the others one by one, focusing on finding Xing and Himeko."

Chen Bai made arrangements immediately.

Without further delay, the group quickly navigated through the broken streets, guided by the faint signal.

Soon, the group found Ying and Paimon standing in front of the collapsed building.

"Danheng! March! Ah Bai! We're here!"

Paimon saw the fish and quickly waved.

"Are you all alright?" Chen Bai stepped forward and asked.

"We're fine."

Ying shook her head slightly, then remembered something and spoke up to remind him.

"By the way, Ah Bai, I just met Xing. He went to the depths of the world in the painting by boat with a woman named Hui Shi."

"Eishi? Who's that? Hoshi hasn't been tricked by some pretty older sister again, has she?"

Upon hearing this, March 7th immediately spoke up in confusion.

Upon hearing this, Chen Bai couldn't help but retort, "Is your impression of Xing really that stereotypical?"

March 7: "Isn't that right?"

Chen Bai: "..."

Well, to some extent, Xing's way of speaking is quite "stereotypical".

"Eyo, I remember she should be Himeko's ancestor, right? Could it be that she still exists in Nissō Paradise?"

Dan Heng paused slightly, his eyes flickered, and he asked thoughtfully.

Ying nodded slightly and explained in accordance with his words:

“That’s right, Eyo has been hiding deep within the painted world of Nissou Paradise. Hoshi plans to work with her to mobilize the remaining illusionary power to search for Himeko’s whereabouts.”

"Since we share the same goal, let's go together to help immediately."

Chen Bai's expression hardened, and he prepared to go and provide support.

Just as the group was about to depart, two figures suddenly emerged slowly from the shadows beside them, blocking their way.

It's Silver Wolf and Blade!

Before the fishy smell could even be tasted, the silver wolf stated directly the purpose of his trip:

"Wait a minute, don't rush in. We need to borrow someone from you."

Her gaze was fixed on Sunday, and she spoke frankly:

"Come with us and help us extract all the remaining fleeting cells from the entire amusement park and seal them all inside Blade's body."

Now that the Wish Fulfillment has been destroyed and the Eerie Thousand-Faced Tree has been completely sealed, the surface disaster seems to have come to an end.

However, the fundamental problems of the Erxiang Paradise have not been eradicated.

The threat of transient cells, which previously spread widely through mutations, has not yet been resolved.

After all, if those who have been implanted with fleeting cells are left untreated, serious health problems are bound to arise.

They originally planned to execute this plan on the Wish TV channel, but the appearance of the Thousand-Faced Tree and Guiji disrupted the plan.

And now, of course, we can't just leave it unattended.

Following that, under the manipulation of Silver Wolf and Sunday, those who had undergone the "Happiness Surgery" were all drawn into Blade's body.

"Whoo~"

Ren covered his forehead, looking somewhat uncomfortable.

"Aren, are you alright?"

Silver Wolf asked Blade a question.

Then, before he could respond, Blade suddenly realized that he was no longer in the same place, but in a blank space of consciousness.

In this space of consciousness, he saw his past, and in the end, he saw his master, General Huaiyan.

These experiences had caused him immense suffering and even triggered him to be possessed by demons.

However, that was the old script, because [Feng Rao] has long since been rewritten.

Immediately afterwards, a figure exactly like him appeared. It was the fleeting afterimage of Feng Rao, who was bewitching the blade, causing people to fall so that he could possess and be reborn.

But Blade has been through so much, he has long since let go of it.

Finally, he picked up the weapon that his master Huaiyan had given him in the space of consciousness—Cilin.

This was forged by hand when Ren was still Yingxing.

Then, Ren finally overcame his inner demons, picked up his weapon, and slashed at the fleeting afterimage.

At that moment, the scene in Blade's consciousness space changed instantly, switching to a starry sky scene.

A narrow path in life!

Just as he was in a daze, the pharmacist from [Fengrao] glanced at him.

Thus, Blade bid farewell to the past, was reborn, and completely eradicated his fleeting will.

He was no longer a broken blade, but a brand new weapon, a sharp blade specifically designed to attack all evil beings!

When he returned to reality, he found the Silver Wolf's ecology resounding loudly in his ears:

"Hey, what's wrong with you, Knife Guy? Why did you change your clothes? Why did the pharmacist give you a sidelong glance just now? Could it be...?"

Silver Wolf seemed to have guessed something, and his face lit up with joy.

"Yes, now I've officially said goodbye to the past."

Ren nodded slightly, which was taken as an admission.

At the same time, he also noticed that his current attire... many parts that shouldn't be visible were covered by white bandages, half-concealed, making him look very awkward.

But none of that matters.

"I didn't expect the pharmacist to give you a sidelong glance. Could it be that you've become the messenger?"

Chen Bai was also somewhat surprised by the blade's sudden change.

After all, in the short time it took to talk, Ah Xing's uncle changed his clothes and seemed like a completely different person.

Chapter 496 What?! The Supreme Train Commander is going to step in and suppress Guiji?!

Okay, let's temporarily ignore A-Ren's inappropriate clothing change.

In short, the fishy smell was gone.

After Chen Bai and his group resolved this matter, they headed deeper into the world within the painting to find Himeko, but they needed guidance beforehand.

Just then, General Yao Guang, Ting Yun, and the normal version of Fei Ying appeared.

"Gentlemen, are you in such a hurry to find Miss Himeko?"

The first thing Yao Guang asked when he met these people was a question.

"General Yao Guang, you foresaw this too?"

Chen Bai was surprised.

"Hehe, even with my discerning eye, I can still foresee that the morning star on this train seems to have been imprisoned by some evil old man."

Yao Guang chuckled.

"Is General Yao Guang also coming with us?"

On March 7th, he suddenly asked a question in return.

"No, I still need to work with that Ms. Zhenzhu to deal with the upcoming crisis. The strange tree not long ago gave me a bad feeling, and it seems to be a [great misfortune]. Therefore, we need to go further to the [fragment] in the painting to explore and deduce some things."

Yao Guang shook his head, indicating that he did not intend to travel together.

Now that the Great Lord of Extinction, Guiji, has appeared, although we know that he is secretly planning to release the divine remains of [Gluttony], we are still unclear about what other tricks he has up his sleeve.

Furthermore, it remains unclear what abilities the Great Lord of Extinction possesses in relation to his passing.

In addition, Zhenzhu needs to guard the entrance to the [Remnant Scroll], so they need to perform more calculations to gain more advantages in the upcoming game.

"Wait! Ladies and gentlemen, the train conductor has sent a letter."

At this time, after receiving the group message on Sunday, he hurriedly reminded Xing Si Men E Mo C.

After Chen Bai picked up his phone, he saw that Pam had sent a message in the "Starry Sky Train Family" group.

[Pam (Supreme Train Conductor): @Everyone, just now, passenger Himeko tried to forward a message to the train using her own power... Now, I, the train conductor, will relay passenger Himeko's original words, Pam!]

[Pam (Train Commander): Silent One uses people's fears to create possible futures; that's his power. When another possibility is detected, this apocalypse will be over for Pam!]

[Walter Yang: So, he's an Extinction Lord who observes possibilities and conjures them up?!]

[Dan Heng: No wonder my attacks always missed when I fought him before.]

[Walter Yang: It is precisely because people witnessed the arrival of the Doomsday Lord that fear, despair, and various imaginings of "the end of the world" became possible, giving rise to the possibility of creating apocalyptic ruins.]

[Chen Bai: So, that old die can indirectly manipulate probability?]

[March 7th: So, what's our strategy going to be next?]

[Sunday: If we can use other means to lock him down, and limit his possibilities to a single one, then we can focus our efforts on dealing with him. My mother had a very difficult time dealing with his clone before.]

[Chen Bai: By the way, Pam, there's something I need to tell you, it might make you a little uncomfortable, but I still have to tell you.]

[Pam (Supreme Train Conductor): What is it? Just say it. This train conductor isn't that fragile!]

[Chen Bai: In fact, the true identity of the current Extinction Lord Guiji is the former Masked Fool Weidi, and also our predecessor, Navigator Observer I Jian.]

[Pam (Supreme Train Commander):.....]

[March 7th: Pam, are you crying? Don't be sad, we'll spend time with you when we get back. We never expected the truth to be like this~]

[Danheng: Yeah, Pam, now is not the time to be sad~]

[Sunday: Train conductor...]

Just as Pam was crying and grieving, news of her resurfaced.
