Chapter 191: Strange Phenomenon Emerges
Bai Feng first lowered his head to glance at his clothes, then shook his head with a helpless sigh. “Hey, could you please put a coat on me?”
“Brother, do you wanna change that thing on you?”
Bai Feng shot a quick glance at Bai Yu Mo, who immediately looked away. He refused hastily, “No need, I already changed last night.”
“Oh.”
Bai Yu Mo’s heart sank a little—disappointment creeping in like a bad plot twist.
A few minutes later…
“You guys are a little slow,”
Outside the door, Yun Yue Yao tilted her head, eyeing Bai Feng and Bai Yu Mo with curiosity that could pierce through steel. Her eyes flicked between the two.
“Why are you here?” Bai Yu Mo took a step forward, trying to block half of Bai Feng’s body.
“Obviously here to call you,” Yun Yue Yao said casually, then sidestepped Bai Yu Mo, grabbing Bai Feng’s arm with a grin. She looked up with a hint of a smile, “Alright, Bai Feng, let’s go.”
“You…” Bai Yu Mo clenched her fists in frustration. Yun Yue Yao really couldn’t care less about her, huh?
“Would you stop teasing Yu Mo?” Bai Feng tapped lightly on Yun Yue Yao’s head, then added, “And are you sure you want to hold onto my arm like that?”
“Then let me hold on for a bit longer before we go,” Yun Yue Yao refused to let go. “Otherwise, we won’t meet again until after the Transformation God.”
At that moment, a streak of red glow appeared in the distant sky. Bai Feng lifted his gaze with a knowing look.
“Is it starting?” Yun Yue Yao squinted at the distant red cloud, her face unreadable. “Let’s go.”
As the strange phenomenon unfolded, various sects began gathering their disciples.
***
In a wide, open clearing, all the sects and Holy Land of Tian Yan had already set up makeshift camps at prime locations.
“Let’s split up here,” Yun Yue Yao took a step forward. Turning back, she smiled at Bai Feng, “I’ll come find you soon.”
Then she looked at Bai Yu Mo. “Bai Yu Mo, make sure to protect Bai Feng well.”
“No need to tell me—I got it,” Bai Yu Mo whispered back.
Yun Yue Yao walked in front of Bai Feng, leaning slightly forward to look at him. “Bai Feng, aren’t you going to say something to me?”
Bai Feng pondered a few seconds. “Uh… Keep cultivating hard?”
To such a casual answer, Yun Yue Yao just chuckled. “You’re still the same. Don’t worry—I’ll work hard on my cultivation, and I’ll come find you later.”
“Then, see you.”
Yun Yue Yao waved at Bai Feng and Bai Yu Mo, then hurried towards the camp of Tian Yan Holy Land.
Bai Feng retracted his gaze, turning to glance at Bai Yu Mo. “Let’s go too.”
“Mm.”
Without hesitation, the two hurried toward the Heavenly Sword Sect’s camp.
Meanwhile, their master, Chu Ning Yan, arrived early at the camp. Seeing Bai Feng and Bai Yu Mo, she nodded with a smile. “Find a place to sit quickly. This kind of opportunity might only come once in a lifetime.”
Though she tried to speak calmly—upholding her dignity as a master—her pace was quicker than usual, no longer quite the same serene tone of before.
Thinking about it, in this era of severed Immortal roads, hearing news of the Immortal Path once again was truly electrifying.
As time passed, disciples from all sects arrived one after another. Despite the increasing number, the camp’s sky remained unnervingly silent, everyone’s eyes glued to the flowing red glow in the air like a strange water current.
Yu Yao waved at Bai Feng before sitting beside him. Little Snow quietly nestled into Bai Feng’s arms, staring fixedly at the anomaly in the sky.
“It’s starting.”
Bai Feng suddenly lifted his head to look at the red cloud. A golden light emerged from within it—no, more precisely, a streak of golden light that tore through the red cloud, as if a golden crack had appeared in the sky.
His eyes flashed black and white as the Divine Forging Technique and Yin Yang Pattern spun wildly. He sensed countless beams of light weaving and crossing behind the golden glow. Gradually, the light beams dissipated, revealing mysterious runes and ancient patterns that stretched out into the distance like an endless, winding road.
But instead of feeling joy, Bai Feng furrowed his brow slightly. Something felt off.
He activated his Divine Forging Technique to the max, then “looked through” the runes and patterns—what he saw underneath was shocking.
‘What’s going on?’
He instinctively held his breath. Below the runes and patterns was a sluggish river of bl**d, thick and sticky, slowly flowing. Drops of bl**d fell from the river, dyeing the sky crimson.
And the mysterious runes? They were manifestations of the anomalies caused by the bl**d, not some Immortal Path or otherworldly power.
‘Is the Immortal Realm in trouble?’
Having read countless novels, Bai Feng first thought of some hidden villain trying to destroy the world—could the Immortal Realm be already destroyed?
No, that’s jumping to conclusions. It’s too early to say.
He instinctively looked towards the source of the bl**d flow, activating both the Body Forging Technique and other methods. It was as though following the sticky bl**d deeper into the abyss.
Just as he reached his limit, he finally saw the origin of the bl**d—two vaguely visible figures. From afar, it looked like they were stabbing weapons into each other’s bodies simultaneously—motionless as if long dead, bl**d flowing from their wounds.
Suddenly, Bai Feng raised his other hand to cover his forehead. His vision shattered. He gasped for air, throat tight, body trembling—just a glance was enough to fill his mind with a searing black-and-white pain.
“Brother, are you alright?” Bai Yu Mo quickly looked at him, supporting him gently.
Bai Feng shook his head. “It’s nothing.”
He lowered his head, pondering the two figures he’d just caught a glimpse of. Clearly, they weren’t ordinary—most likely some legendary Immortals from the tales. But what had triggered their fight? What had caused the Immortal Path to break?
“Did you see that?”
At this moment, a cold, emotionless voice echoed in his ear. Bai Feng turned instinctively. Standing beside him was a blonde-haired young girl, squatting and observing him with a calm expression.
“Tian Yan?”
Why was this guy here now?
“I knew I wasn’t mistaken about you,” Tian Yan’s lips curled slightly with faint amusement. “I know what you’re thinking, but unfortunately, even our Holy Land doesn’t know what’s going on.”
Bai Feng rubbed his still-aching forehead, muttering softly, “Don’t tell me some kind of demon invasion or something?”
“It’s not. The Demon Heaven isn’t that powerful,” Tian Yan shook his head. “Those brainless idiots don’t understand the Great Law or the Way.”
Bai Feng nodded. He didn’t believe in some demon invasion either. Although he only glimpsed briefly, he was sure those two weren’t emitting any demonic aura.
Could it be some internal war within the Immortal Realm?
