Chapter 74

As the demonic energy in his body disappeared, Gu Bai regained his consciousness almost instantly. Before he could rejoice, his attention was attracted by a voice beside his ear.

"Master, is that you?"

He looked towards the source of the excited voice.

At this moment, it looked like an ordinary light screen from the outside, but there was a universe inside. Inside the light screen, the surroundings looked like an endless void, only the ground under his feet was sand.

And on the sand, there was a huge monster with goat horns on its head, tiger teeth in its mouth, and black fur all over its body. It looked very terrifying and ferocious.

But compared to its terrifying and ferocious appearance, this monster's situation was not so good.

Its whole body was pierced through by a golden sword, firmly fixed to the ground, unable to move. Its mighty and majestic body was full of wounds that were deep to the bone.

Emitting demonic energy and corrosive black blood, as if there was no end to it, kept flowing from the wound to the ground, corroding the ground around it. Accompanied by its weak and painful cries, the scene looked very sad.

There was no doubt, from the demonic blood, it was certain that the apocalypse in this mission world was caused by this monster in front of him!

At this moment, the monster looked at him with an indescribable excitement, but soon, the excitement disappeared, and became a bewildered and angry roar.

"You are not my master!

Who are you?

Why do you have my master's original power in your body?! "

"Who is your master?"

The monster's words were unclear, and although Gu Bai did not understand much, he caught some information. He suppressed the joy of returning to being a human and focused his attention on the monster in front of him.

There were too many accidents in this mission. First, he lost the plot, then he accidentally turned into a zombie, and now there was this monster that seemed to 'know' him. The situation was too strange.

"You don't know who my master is?

Then why do you have my master's original power in your body?!

My master would never give it to you, unless … you killed my master!

No, that's impossible! How could you kill my master? That's impossible! Ahhhh, you bastards! "

The monster was very emotional, staring at Gu Bai as it questioned, and then quickly deduced. In the end, it suddenly became irritable, obviously unable to accept the news of its master's death.

It struggled angrily, but the sword that pinned it to the ground seemed weak, but in fact, it was indestructible. No matter how it struggled, it could not get rid of it.

Instead, because of the violent struggle, the wounds on its body became more serious, and black blood spurted out like a fountain.

Its strength was quickly draining, it could no longer struggle, and could only lie on the ground and howl, a pair of beastly eyes filled with sorrow …

"I don't know what you're talking about, but I didn't kill your master …"

Gu Bai stared at it, and his heart filled with doubts.

"Liar!

You bastards! If you didn't kill my master, how could your soul contain his power of origin?! "

The monster was very emotional, and did not believe Gu's words.

Although this person's soul didn't have the cultivation and ability to kill its master, this person had its master's origin power.

Apart from that person, how could Master willingly give his Origin Energy to others? The only explanation was that these people had already killed Master!

"…"

Monster's short words had no head or tail. However, Gu Bai was still able to discover a lot of information. That was especially true of the fact that Monster had pointed out his soul. That was something worth pondering.

His soul and body were two different people, and the monster pointed out his soul, which meant it was targeting him, Gu Bai, and not the master of his body.

What master?

What original's power?

Gu Bai's mind was filled with a hundred thousand question marks, but he sharply sensed something unusual. His soul was nothing special, so the master and original's power the monster was referring to was … a man!

His eyelids twitched, and he suddenly remembered that every time he was with a man in every world, he would receive a strange power that strengthened his soul. Could it be that the strange power the man gave him was the original's power that the monster was talking about?

Gu Bai's heart suddenly beat faster, and he suppressed his emotions and spoke again.

"I really don't know who your master is, and I think we might have some misunderstanding. Why don't you tell me, who is your master?

Also, you look like a powerful demon, so why are you in this place where spiritual energy is so scarce?

Let's make things clear, and maybe I can help you get out … "

"Great demon?!

You have eyes but can't see, you dare to call me a Great Demon!

That low-level thing is not even fit to carry my shoes!

… Wait, you don't know me?! "

The monster, who was in a frenzy, suddenly exploded when he heard Gu Bai's words.

But after that, he immediately reacted, and stared at Gu Bai in disbelief. Since this person was able to seize his master's original's power, how could he not know him?

"…"

Faced with the monster's incredulous gaze, Gu Bai's brain worked quickly, and he was more than ninety percent sure that the 'master' the monster was referring to was a man.

After so many missions, he learned more and more things, and although he looked calm, he actually had doubts about the man.

If the man was just an ordinary soul, how could he provide him with the power to nourish his soul? Furthermore, reincarnation was determined by each person's merits and blessings, and every time the man was reincarnated, he would either be a noble or a wealthy family, and this was definitely not a coincidence.

Coupled with the monster's current behavior, Gu Bai felt that he had smelled a huge secret.

But just as he was about to continue to fish for information, a powerful pressure suddenly appeared in the void of the light screen, and a man in a white robe with an immortal aura broke through the air.

The furious monster's expression instantly changed.

"Evil creature, this immortal kindly let you live for a few more days, but you keep causing trouble for this immortal, are you tired of living?

You really are that lunatic's beast, smelly and stubborn, exactly the same! "

The man in white landed, and he raised the long whip in his hand, and viciously lashed the monster.

The whip looked ordinary, but it was a divine weapon. When it landed on the monster's body, it immediately left a hideous wound, causing more black blood to gush out. The monster was in so much pain that it let out a hiss.

"You bastards, if you have the ability, then kill me now. When I get out, I will definitely eat all of you to avenge my master!

Roar —! "

Although it was in pain, the monster did not show the slightest fear, and instead bared its teeth and roared.

"Stubborn …"

The man in white was clearly aware of the monster's temper and reaction, and he snorted, ignoring him, and his gaze fell on Gu Bai, sizing him up.

After a few breaths, the man's expression suddenly changed, just like the monster's at the beginning.

"This, this aura is … Who are you?

Why do you have that lunatic's power of origin in your body, what is your relationship with him?! "

Although the man's reaction was not as furious as the monster's, there was a strange solemnity and fear.

Yes, he was afraid, the strong aura of another person on Gu Bai's body caused him to feel extreme fear, he did not believe that an ordinary soul like Gu Bai could kill that man and obtain his power of origin.

But at this moment, the aura on Gu Bai's body was so strong, there was only one possibility, and that was that the lunatic had willingly given his power to this ordinary person.

How could it be, how could that lunatic have removed his power of origin … The man did not dare to think about it, that person's name was a taboo, a taboo that he did not even dare to think about.

He hurriedly pulled his thoughts back, and stared at Gu Bai, a perilous panic in his heart.

This ordinary person in front of him definitely could not have gone to that place, but this person had that lunatic's aura, which meant …

That lunatic had come out!

The man in white's face was instantly filled with fear, and even the hand holding the whip began to tremble.

He could not help but look around suspiciously, as if he was facing a great enemy, and when he discovered that the person he expected was not here, he looked at Gu Bai with killing intent in his eyes.

No matter what this person's relationship with that lunatic was, as long as they were connected, he could not be allowed to live!

"Brat, since you have such a strong relationship with that lunatic, don't blame this immortal for making a move on a mortal like you!"

The man in white snorted coldly, then raised the whip in his hand and attacked Gu Bai.

Before the powerful attack even landed on his body, Gu Bai felt a threat that made even his soul tremble.

He wanted to dodge, but he could not. The other party had already firmly restrained him, so he could not move, and could only watch as the attack landed on him, the aura of death enveloping him.

"Bang!"

However, at this moment, the light screen suddenly changed again. An even stronger pressure appeared, and the entire light screen distorted, and a black light suddenly blocked the man in white's attack.

"Who is it?"

The man in white was shocked and looked over.

However, before he saw who it was, he first felt a powerful and intimidating aura. His face instantly turned pale, and his heart stopped beating.

Ye Cang!

It's really Ye Cang!

This lunatic had actually come out!

In an instant, the man in white reacted, then turned around and fled without thinking. He was just a small golden immortal, and even if he had ten times the courage, he would not dare to face this terrifying lunatic head-on. Hurry, hurry, run, run, run!

The man fled in horror, but he was one step too late. The moment he turned around, a black flame fell on him.

"Ah —!"

He screamed, and before he could say anything else, his entire body was burned to ashes by the black flame.

At the same time, a black hole appeared in the void of the light screen, and the shadow of a man wearing a horned helmet, black armor, and a mask slowly walked out of it. It was the mysterious man in the starry sky!

Gu Bai's face lit up with joy.

The eyes of the furious monster also burst with ecstasy, and it opened its mouth and shouted, "Master!"

After that, Gu Bai's face froze, and he turned to look at the ecstatic monster, and his heart skipped a beat. What, what did it call his mysterious master …

"I can't stay for long. Go out and complete the mission first, and we'll talk when you get back …"

But before he could think any further, the mysterious man teleported in front of him, reached out and gently tapped his forehead, and poured the lost plot into his mind, and then sent him out of the light screen.

After he left, the mysterious man turned around and stared at the wounded monster for a moment, then immediately pulled out the long sword that held the monster in place and took it away …

…

At the same time, an abyss covered in fire suddenly shook a few times, startling a few guards, but then they looked away as if they were used to it.

One of the guards shook his head and began to complain.

"Sigh, how long do you think this lunatic will be quiet? It's been three thousand years, and he's still not dead, and he's still causing trouble. What is he begging for, that Yin …"

"Shh!

Don't say that name!

You don't want to live anymore! "

Before he could finish, the guard next to him seemed to be frightened and quickly covered his mouth.

The guard seemed to have realized something, and he paused, swallowed the name he was about to say, and continued.

"I just don't understand this lunatic. It's been so many years, and he's still not dead, so we have to keep watching. When will it end …"

"You already said he's a lunatic, and you still ask? Stop complaining, you've only been here for a few hundred years … Anyway, don't mention that person again. Remember, it's taboo!

Absolutely taboo! "

"I understand …"

That guard nodded with lingering fear. He turned around to look at the burning abyss and shut his mouth with lingering fear. He didn't say anything else.
