Chapter 4223: Neither Human Nor Ghost

and the other three had little hope for Jiang Yun's attempt to climb the peak this time. They believed that Gu Bulao allowed Jiang Yun to attempt the climb at this time only to accumulate experience...Originally, Jiang Yun thought that the power contained within the mark left by his master wouldn't be very significant.

He had only just begun to absorb it, and he was astonished to find that the power contained within the mark was vast and boundless, like a sea of smoke.

Know that the master was captured by the Annihilation Emperor, suffering every day and night from the immense pain of physical annihilation.

Although this pain is unbearable even for the Master, as long as the Master's cultivation remains and his power endures, pain may be unavoidable, but at least there will be no fear for his life.

However, in the mark Master left for himself, there was so much power contained within it that even Jiang Yun couldn't help but wonder if Master had placed all his strength and cultivation into the mark, giving it to him.

If that were the case, then wouldn't the current master be equal to someone without cultivation

So, wouldn't he be... under the torment of annihilation runes upon his body

"No, no!"

Gingercloud suddenly shook his head with force, forcefully interrupting his own thoughts. "Master said that he has already remembered his identity from his past life,"

He venerates the ancients, and he will take them out of the forbidden zone. He will also seek revenge from the Elder Cang, and he is waiting for the four of us to become emperors before we go to pick him up.

"My master gave me so much power so that I could become the Emperor as soon as possible and save him."

"And the master's skill was extraordinary, he definitely still had self-preservation power."

"Master, it's going to be alright!"

Gingercloud, as if bolstering her own confidence, finished her words heavily. Nine-colored markings then appeared in her eyes, drawing her into a dream. She closed her eyes and began to focus on absorbing the power within the markings.

Meanwhile, in a certain realm within the Illusory Reality Domain, Bai Li Guang'an watched Gu Bulao staggering ahead of him, his eyes flickering with a hint of confusion.

The next moment, he had walked to Gu Bulao's side and stretched out his finger, directly pointing at the center of Gu Bulao's eyebrows.

As one finger fell, the color of a hundred miles of light and darkness changed instantly.

Before the light and darkness of a hundred miles could open, Gu Bulao had already burst into laughter first, saying: "Hahaha, Jie Mie, now, if you still want to enter the Illusory True Eye, you must first find a way to save my life!"

"Cough cough cough!"

In a simple sentence, Gu Bulao's cough persisted, but the smile on his face grew more intense, as if he were a child who had successfully pulled off a prank.

Bai Li Guang's face remained expressionless as the laughter died down from Gu Bulao, who was still chuckling and wiping tears from his eyes. "You think," Bai Li Guang continued, withdrawing his finger with a cold air about him, "that just because you're dead your disciples won't come looking for you"

Gu Bulao gasped for breath and said: "He will certainly come, but by then, he won't be looking for me, but you!"

Bai Li Guang'an fell silent for a moment before saying, "Rest assured, I guarantee you will live to see the day your disciple returns."

As soon as the words left his lips, Bai Li Guang’an once again extended his finger and touched Gu Bulao’s brow.

Next, his fingers began to move rapidly along the ancient and weathered lines of Gu Bulao's brow.

Wherever his finger passed, lines of annihilation appeared on the ancient face and body.

Thus, Bai Li Guang's fingers moved incessantly, until the entire body of Gu Bu Lao was covered in patterns of annihilation. Only then did he stop, retracting his fingers.

At this moment, Gu Bǔlǎo was no longer smiling. He had become like a sculpture, his face expressionless as he stood there motionless.

Even, his eyes lost their former vibrancy and clarity, covered as they were with the wrinkles of desolation. They resembled a stagnant pool.

Baili Guangming looked up and down at Gu Bulao, then a smile appeared on his face and he said, "You tell me, what's the point of this"

"I told you I wouldn't kill you, but you didn't believe me. You insisted on torturing yourself and now you're neither human nor ghost!"

"Let's go!"

Bai Li Guang An shook his head and continued walking forward.

And Gu Bulao actually followed behind him, keeping pace with his steps, saying nothing, and walking forward step by step.

However, as he walked, his body was incredibly stiff.

Only the pattern of annihilation, freshly drawn onto his body by the light and darkness of Bai Li, continued to move.

——

About six months later, a voice suddenly rang in Ginger Cloud's ear, "Cloud-er, wake up!"

Ginger Cloud's heart moved, she slowly opened her eyes and woke up from her lucid dream.

For others, it was six months, but for him, it felt like six years.

For nearly six years, he had yet to fully absorb the power of the Four Veins Flower.

But his cultivation realm had already risen to a higher level, reaching the fifth level of reincarnation!

To such an extent that by the time he reached later stages, every sliver of power he absorbed would bring with it a surge of unease in his heart.

He had no idea how much power his master had left behind in this Four Veins Flower.

But the more power that is left behind, the less power the master himself has left.

Even, he had wanted to give up absorbing this power more than once, wanting to return to the Illusionary Realm and ask his master for clarification.

But in the end, he could only grit his teeth and force himself to absorb this power, to make himself stronger as soon as possible.

At this moment, hearing his grandfather's voice, he looked at his grandfather in confusion and asked, "Grandpa, what's wrong"

He knew Grandpa must have encountered something, otherwise he wouldn't interrupt his seclusion.

The Heavenly Venerable sealed his fate with a wry smile and said, "I just received news that the people of the Reincarnation Clan seem to be secretly preparing for migration."

"I think this matter probably has something to do with your senior brothers and sisters, which is why they woke you up."

Jiang Yun couldn't help but be startled, "The Wheel of Samsara Clan is preparing to migrate"

"Yes!" The Heavenly Venerable Fengming nodded. "Although the people I sent to protect your senior brothers lost track of one of them, I didn't bring him back. I let him remain in the Cycle Heaven."

Just now, he texted me back.

Jiang Yun frowned. The Reincarnation Clan had been coming to the All Heavens Gathering Region for quite some time now.

They lived a peaceful and uneventful life, neither achieving fame nor remaining completely unknown.

Now that the Master Brother and others have disappeared in their tribe, they suddenly want to migrate the whole tribe. This must be related to the Master Brothers.

Even, they might possibly migrate back to the Four Directions!

But why would they go to the Four Regions at this time

Could something have happened to the eldest brother

After a moment of thought, Jiang Yun raised his head and looked at Feng Ming Tianzun and said, "Grandfather, how long does it take to get from here to the Reincarnation Heaven"

The Celestial Venerable replied, "I'll personally send you there. It will take about a month to get there!"

Apparently, the Heavenly Venerable had anticipated that Jiang Yun would go to the Realm of Reincarnation and, knowing Jiang Yun was in a hurry, decided to personally escort him.

Jiang Yun didn't want to trouble his grandfather, but considering that the grand competition in Heavenly Paradise was about to begin, if he went to the realm of reincarnation himself, he might miss this opportunity.

But the next grand competition will have to wait another hundred years.

Therefore, Jiang Yun nodded and said, "Then I won't be polite to my grandfather."

The Heavenly Venerable chuckled and said, "If you dare to be polite with me, I'll spank your butt!"

"Shall we leave now"

"Go now!"o show off his true strength properly, letting everyone see it.Of course, it's still the power of the sword!As Jiang Yun took a step towards refining into an immortal, a powerful aura erupted from his...
