Chapter 1326: I Am Not of the Three Realms

Liang Zhao had mastered the bizarre witchcraft and, alongside the power of the Demon Star, became an overwhelming presence that pressed down on everyone, including Su Kexin and Luo Xiaoxue, who were shrouded in the protagonist’s halo.

This was an extremely terrifying form of witchcraft; of course, such power was not easily obtained and came at a price.

Liang Zhao had paid with his life, and now he was merely a ghoul—without a human body, he was free from physical constraints and could perform this terrifying witchcraft.

However, regaining a physical body to survive in the human realm was no simple task; finding a suitable one wasn’t easy.

Though his spiritual energy would dwindle, with the support of the Demon Star, his spiritual energy would always surpass that of others.

Everyone was affected by this witchcraft, their spiritual energy depleting rapidly, with even Qin Shili and the others beginning to regress into the same state as Su Kexin and Luo Xiaoxue, becoming useless.

No one in the Three Realms could escape this fate. The Gray Feather Clan had already obtained samples from the Demon Realm and the Sacred Realm, and Liang Zhao, having stayed in the human realm for so long, gradually collected samples here, creating a method that applied to everyone in the Three Realms.

“What’s going on…? How is your spiritual energy…?”

“I’m losing it too.”

“It seems it’s not just us; those giant beasts are affected as well, only Liang Zhao remains unscathed.”

Qin Shili and the others were in disarray, discussing the sudden loss of their spiritual energy.

Without spiritual energy, their simple weapons could hardly withstand Liang Zhao’s onslaught.

“Hahaha, I advise you all to stop struggling; it will only hasten your spiritual energy loss! You’ll die faster!”

Liang Zhao laughed maniacally, and no one could stop him now—he would soon create a world of demons belonging to him in the human realm!

“Senior Brother, what should we do…?”

Su Kexin felt anxious; with everyone losing their spiritual energy, even the Spirit Sword couldn’t provide a means of resistance. They were like fish on a chopping block, waiting for annihilation.

Even Lin Nuo was in the same boat; his Gale Technique was already starting to weaken, clearly signaling that he no longer had enough spiritual energy to sustain it.

After a moment of silence, Lin Nuo looked up at Liang Zhao above.

He turned his gaze toward the nearby Demon Star and took a deep breath.

“Step back and join them,” Lin Nuo said to Su Kexin.

“But, she’s targeting me… wouldn’t that put them in danger…?”

“Do you think that if you die, they’ll survive? We’re all in the same boat.”

“Then Senior Brother, let’s go together.”

“I won’t follow you.”

Lin Nuo smiled gently, stroking Su Kexin’s head.

This was, in fact, the closest he’d been to his initial wish. He could kill Su Kexin and then escape; that would eliminate any threat to him.

Why could he escape now but not before?

Because while Liang Zhao was using this witchcraft to drain spiritual energy, he had also weakened the magic barrier’s strength, allowing Lin Nuo to break through.

But only one person could escape.

His spiritual energy hadn’t completely vanished, even if Liang Zhao maximumed the power of this witchcraft.

This witchcraft applied to everyone in the Three Realms, but in fact, he was human in body yet a soul that had traversed through worlds!

But Liang Zhao was unaware that Lin Nuo still had some spiritual energy left to run.

If he ran, then Su Kexin and the others would die, and he would escape Liang Zhao’s magic barrier, ambushing Liang Zhao later; he could easily deal with this last remnant.

This was a sure plan.

In the past, sacrificing others to ensure one’s own safety was perfectly normal.

But now he wouldn’t do that.

He would take a gamble.

“Ah? Senior Brother, where are you going?”

“Just go quickly.”

Lin Nuo pushed Su Kexin away, then quickly ran off. Su Kexin was confused but did not chase after him.

She simply couldn’t catch up; no matter her spiritual energy, her speed could never match Lin Nuo’s.

Lin Nuo had been weak in spiritual energy back then, but his agility and combat ability were remarkable.

Not knowing what Lin Nuo was planning, she could only follow his lead.

Su Kexin hurriedly ran toward Qin Shili; if Liang Zhao struck, they would all be doomed.

“Hehe, Lin Nuo, in the end, you’re wise to give them up. Now what’s next…”

Just as Liang Zhao was about to launch a spell against Su Kexin and the others, a blast of energy struck him.

Bang!

Though this energy wasn’t strong, it struck just as Liang Zhao was performing his spell, taking advantage while the power of the Demon Star hadn’t yet reached him. It was a perfect opportunity, and the energy suddenly capitalized on it.

“What the…?! Who?! Lin Nuo?!”

Liang Zhao exclaimed in shock, finding it absurd; Lin Nuo was also losing spiritual energy, insufficient to unleash a spell capable of injuring him!

“Liang Zhao, you think this applies to everyone in the Three Realms. But have you ever considered that I am not of this Three Realms?”

“Not possible?! No way there could be anything from another realm!”

Liang Zhao simply couldn’t believe it; he thought Lin Nuo was bluffing!

“Then keep thinking it’s impossible.”

Lin Nuo unleashed another Heavenly Strike, hitting Liang Zhao’s magic with perfect timing, shaking his witchcraft.

“This… seems like you’ve pulled a few tricks too, Lin Nuo.”

To verify Lin Nuo’s claim, Liang Zhao began to use other spells to extract crucial memories about Lin Nuo.

In this magic barrier, relying on the power of the Demon Star, and since Lin Nuo couldn’t dodge with his Gale Technique in peak form, he could manage it.

Soon, a beam of purple light shone down on Lin Nuo as Liang Zhao attempted to extract important information.

Of course, he couldn’t find anything about Lin Nuo being a traveler, but he did uncover Lin Nuo’s intent to kill Su Kexin.

And that side of the cliff, where Su Kexin had killed Lin Nuo.

Although he couldn’t quickly link these two together, he speculated that Lin Nuo had held a grudge against Su Kexin, and that Su Kexin would be a potential threat to Lin Nuo.

“Lin Nuo, I don’t know what you’re thinking. You’re a remarkable demon. But Su Kexin’s power will eventually kill you. Don’t you want this hidden danger eliminated?”

Liang Zhao tried to use words to make Lin Nuo hesitate, but Lin Nuo wouldn’t fall for his tricks and kept launching his Heavenly Strikes at Liang Zhao.

“Damn it! Demon Star! Power! I need more power!”

Liang Zhao was repeatedly struck, longing for more of the Demon Star’s protection, but Lin Nuo shattered his delusion.

Lin Nuo had already noticed where the source of the Demon Star’s power was; two hundred meters behind Liang Zhao, there was a very hidden transmission light. Due to Liang Zhao’s witchcraft, his spiritual energy was draining, allowing Lin Nuo to see it.

Cut it off, let’s see what you can do.

Lin Nuo used the last of his spiritual energy to unleash his Heavenly Strike, hitting the main power transmission point of the Demon Star, directly severing the energy supply to Liang Zhao.

“This… no! How…!”

Liang Zhao was astonished—he initially believed his spiritual energy would surpass Lin Nuo’s; there was no way Lin Nuo could sever that transmission line.

Yet Lin Nuo still had a tiny bit of spiritual energy left and managed to do it.

In that moment, Lin Nuo jumped up, aiming to see Liang Zhao utterly destroyed.
