Chapter 504 - Zhuge

Success!

Li Huowang excitedly opened his eyes. He was suspended in mid-air, and then he suddenly plummeted toward the unrecognizable ground down below.

As the ground drew nearer, Li Huowang closed his eyes abruptly. I'm falling into a body of water. Good thing I know how to swim!

Splash!

Li Huowang crashed into the water, and the impact propelled water into his mouth.

Li Huowang swam amidst the cold water, and when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that he had already returned to the shore. He turned around and looked at the hard rocks behind him, which caused ripples in the water. He couldn’t help but clench his fists in excitement. My ability to cultivate the "Truth" is getting stronger. At this rate, the world over there will become—No! That world is real! That world is real! I'm cultivating the ‘Truth’ now to resurrect Zhuge Yuan!

With that thought in mind, Li Huowang turned toward Zhuge Yuan in the distance and shouted, “Brother Zhuge, come over here!”

When he saw Zhuge Yuan standing before him again, Li Huowang gritted his teeth and reached out a trembling hand to pat his shoulder. Zhuge Yuan is still alive! Everything that happened in Shangjing was fake! It was all an illusion!

This time, Li Huowang didn’t pass through him like usual. Instead, he could make contact with Zhuge Yuan.

The touch felt so realistic as well.

However, it only lasted for a few breaths. After a while, Li Huowang's face distorted in pain, and he had to let go of Zhuge Yuan’s shoulder.

“Dan Yangzi could easily become a half-Immortal using the primordial breath in my body. Why is it so troublesome when I'm the one using it?" Li Huowang pinched his temple lightly to assuage the splitting headache.

“Brother Li, that is natural. The primordial breath you've unintentionally borrowed before was like a fire. Anyone can start a fire, but the bigger the fire, the harder it is to control. The fire you have at the moment is tiny, but it is a fire that truly belongs to you. You have complete control over lighting or extinguishing it or using it for various purposes.”

Li Huowang felt much calmer. He didn’t need to rush, as the primordial breath in his body was still there.

Although Zhuge Yuan’s body only lasted a short time, he truly had a physical body. When he completely mastered the power within him, he would be able to resurrect Zhuge Yuan, just like how Dan Yangzi became an immortal back then.

“I... I can’t continue. Brother Zhuge, I need to rest for a while, or else this primordial breath might become unstable again,” Li Huowang swayed unsteadily towards the cave entrance. He fell asleep without even saying a word to Bai Lingmiao.

When Li Huowang opened his eyes again, there were crisp chirping sounds outside, which suggested that the rain had stopped. The sunlight streaming into the cave through the cracks proved it was good weather.

“Brother Li, you seem to have slept well without any nightmares this time. Is everything okay now?” Bai Lingmiao scooped up half a bowl of porridge with wild vegetables from the iron pot hanging over the campfire. She brought it over with joy on her face.

“It’s just one day and doesn’t prove anything. Let’s see how it goes later,” Li Huowang picked up the porridge and began to eat ravenously, as he was very hungry at the moment.

After finishing a bowl, Bai Lingmiao scooped up more porridge while Li Huowang continued, “Let’s see how it goes later. If Shai Zi has any more tricks, I’ll have to come up with a plan to stay awake completely.”

“Would not sleeping at all be okay?” Bai Lingmiao served another bowl of porridge.

“Hehe. In this crazy world, even the dead can come back to life. What difference does it make if I don’t sleep? Besides, if Shai Zi has any more tricks up his sleeves, I’ll just have to deal with them then.”

“He better not push me too far. If he does, I’ll report him directly to the Surveillance Bureau!”

Li Huowang stared at Bai Lingmiao, where several white hairs were growing on the left side of her delicate face.

Li Huowang's expression froze, and he immediately stabbed a dagger into his thigh, but there was no pain.

Li Huowang glared coldly at Bai Lingmiao. “Boss Shai Zi, three times is enough. Aren’t you going a bit too far?”

Bai Lingmiao’s face split open from the white hair, revealing a constantly morphing dice head. “Hong Zhong, it's a troublesome matter. Since we are fellow disciples, I’ll help you out. But don’t forget that you owe me a favor, and you have to repay it.”

“All right...” Li Huowang was filled with despair and desolation as he nodded in agreement. He himself didn’t understand why he felt so hopeless and desperate.

“Why did you ask for my help?”

“Because... you’re Shai Zi... Even if you tell me the truth, I won’t believe it in the future..”

Li Huowang reached out and pressed his handprint on the contract in Shai Zi’s hand. Just then, he recalled something. This had already happened, and some of his memories had been altered!

To make matters worse, Li Huowang's body itself was resisting his efforts to recall those memories!

“No... no... no!! Don’t follow Shai Zi’s path! He’s deceiving me! It’s all fake!

The scenery before Li Huowang peeled away. A thin, bony hand reached out and grabbed Li Huowang. He was desperately trying to pull himself. up from the edge of the cliff.

“Brother Li! Help me! Help me undo it! I’m really... about to suffocate!” It was still Zhuge Yuan speaking, with his eyes filled with longing and pleading. “I don’t want to disturb you in your dreams, but you’re the only one now who can help me! Help me undo it! Undo the seal!”

It’s fake! It’s all fake!! Li Huowang swung his arms frantically until he finally broke free from Zhuge Yuan’s control and fell into the abyss.

Beneath the abyss was a turbulent sea where yin and yang met...

That was where the Doulao—the authority behind truth and falsehood—resided. It looked at Li Huowang with the Sacred Mountain Ghost’s Eye that it had seized from the Surveillance Bureau.

“Drink!” Li Huowang sat up abruptly as if he had been doused with cold water. He immediately pulled out his dagger and stabbed it into his left hand again.

The piercing pain made Li Huowang feel a little safer. Only pain could dispel this uncertainty that seemed both real and illusory.

When Li Huowang regained his senses and looked around, he realized he was lying in the cave again, which was in a very messy state. Bai Lingmiao and Li Sui were looking at him in astonishment. The spine sword had been unbound from the cloth wrapping and lay before him.

“Senior Li, is that person trying to manipulate your dreams again? Was it that person controlling your body and doing those strange things?” Bai Lingmiao’s eyes were filled with deep concern.

“Strange things? What strange things? What did I just do?” Li Huowang hurriedly asked.

“Brother Li, you were struggling on the ground just now, and pulled out that bone sword and untied the cloth. It was as if you wanted to remove the purple talisman from the small head,” Zhuge Yuan beside him spoke up.

Li Huowang looked at the spine sword on the ground, then at Zhuge Yuan’s shrunken head on the sword hilt and the purple talisman on his forehead.

Talisman? Zhuge Yuan asked me to remove it just now... the talisman? Li Huowang looked up at Zhuge Yuan beside them, and he felt a chill run down his spine.

Could it be... Li Huowang reached out a trembling hand to remove the talisman, and Zhuge Yuan’s shrunken head swayed and struggled. At the same time, blood, bones, and flesh began to grow rapidly on the spine sword.

The deformed and incomplete organs hung on the spine like fruits, and peach talismans were interspersed among them. “Ah... finally... Brother Li, thank you so much.”

When Li Huowang heard that, Zhuge Yuan's illusion next to him flickered, seemingly on the verge of disappearing.
