And so.
An immensely powerful force, transcending the boundaries of time and space, descended upon Li Shuang.
This is...
Li Shuang was suddenly stunned.
She was momentarily dazed.
Her soul revealed a flaw.
The woman was overjoyed: "Today is your day of reckoning!"
She burned all her soul essence, launching her strongest attack.
After this attack, her clone would surely dissipate.
But it didn't matter.
Meat Mountain was still here.
He would bring the Supreme Ice Spirit Root back to her.
Black dragons, one after another, accompanied the spear's momentum, ferociously attacking Li Shuang.
A strange light flashed in Li Shuang's eyes.
She raised her hand, seemingly just casually waving the Black Abyss Sword.
The woman was instantly ecstatic.
Was this her giving up resistance?
But in the next instant, an extremely cold aura swept over.
The woman's eyes widened in terror.
She watched, wide-eyed, as a giant ice dragon appeared in the sky. This giant dragon was identical to the phantom that had merged with Li Shuang earlier, but for some reason, the dragon's power had surged even further.
Under the terrifying dragon's breath.
All the black dragons were frozen in an instant, and then, instantly swallowed.
The Black Scale Spear shattered.
And then.
It was her soul's turn, which had already reached its limit.
The little girl's last conscious thought was of the giant dragon looking at her with a mocking smile.
What in the world... was that!
The little girl was unwilling; she stared intently at Li Shuang, as if to engrave her face in her memory forever.
But she knew.
It was useless.
Who would use their real face in Myriad Law City?
In the vast Soul Prison, how difficult would it be for her to find someone?
This Supreme Ice Spirit Root...
Most likely, it was not meant for her.
The little girl, filled with a mix of sorrow and indignation, completely dissipated into the air.
Central Continent.
In a palace, a woman suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
She expressionlessly took out the Black Scale Spear.
The phantom of her natal artifact had been shattered, affecting the artifact's main body. This time, the power of the Black Scale Spear was reduced by one-third.
She had to find a way to restore the Black Scale Spear as soon as possible.
Losing a clone.
Losing the power of the Black Scale Spear.
And Meat Mountain... most likely wouldn't survive either.
This time, she had lost completely and utterly.
A Tribulation Transcending stage expert, defeated by a Golden Core stage cultivator.
This was simply...
A great humiliation.
"Li," the woman's murmuring voice sounded, "I've remembered that name."
If she had remained hidden, it would have been fine.
If she dared to show her face.
This grudge, today, would be a fight to the death.
Gluttony Hell.
The moment the woman's soul dissipated, Meat Mountain's expression changed, and he turned to flee.
"Lili," Li Shuang said softly.
"Leave it to me!" Lili was overjoyed; it was finally her turn to shine!
The Black Abyss Sword, like lightning, carrying a biting chill, suddenly pierced into Meat Mountain's back.
Meat Mountain still wanted to escape.
But his body was instantly frozen into an ice sculpture, unable to move at all.
"Hiyah!" Lili controlled Black Abyss and chopped down fiercely.
The ice sculpture shattered.
Meat Mountain's body also disintegrated.
Five people entered Gluttony Hell.
Now.
Only Li Shuang remained.
"Good, good. Excellent, excellent."
Suddenly, a cheer sounded behind Li Shuang.
She turned around, only to see the Human Skin Skeleton clapping.
When he clapped, the other skeletons also clapped, creating quite a lively scene.
When the Human Skin Skeleton stopped, the other skeletons also stopped.
Li Shuang thoughtfully glanced at the other skeletons.
The Human Skin Skeleton said with a smile, "You noticed? These skeletons are all my babies."
Saying that.
He casually shed a layer of human skin, and then, casually pulled out a bone.
He threw the bone, and it instantly grew into a skeleton.
"Turning bones into soldiers, isn't it fun?" the Human Skin Skeleton said with a smile.
Li Shuang remained silent, watching him quietly.
The Human Skin Skeleton wasn't annoyed; he looked at Li Shuang with interest: "You've entered the Langya Secret Realm, and you passed the true test of the secret realm."
Li Shuang looked up at him: "How do you know?"
The Human Skin Skeleton chuckled: "What's so hard to guess? You once obtained a key, didn't you? That key transformed into a mark, landing on your palm. When you swung your sword just now, did you feel a burning sensation in your palm?"
Li Shuang frowned.
The Human Skin Skeleton smiled: "Don't look at me like that. I have no ill will towards you for now. Even if I did, bound by the rules, I can't act against you. It's just that, remembering I once possessed such a key, I felt a momentary surge of emotion."
"You also... possessed this key?" Li Shuang asked.
The Human Skin Skeleton sighed: "Did you think I was always like this? I was once a genius of my generation! Wherever I went, thousands followed! When I ventured into the Langya Secret Realm, I also obtained such a key, and then... I participated in the true trial."
Li Shuang was listening intently, but the Human Skin Skeleton stopped speaking. He looked at Li Shuang: "The mark on your palm belongs to a giant ice dragon. This time, your awakening of the Supreme Spirit Root and the summoning of the ancient giant dragon's phantom, to some extent, resonated with that ice dragon. For some reason, she actually helped you."
Otherwise.
Even if Li Shuang could have endured, she wouldn't have been so composed.
Li Shuang herself had been wondering why her power had suddenly surged; now that she understood the whole story, she suddenly realized.
"But. Don't think that ice dragon values you that much. She was probably just curious for a moment and casually lent you a hand. When the day of the true trial comes, she won't hold back..." The Human Skin Skeleton seemed to recall something, and a look of lingering fear appeared on his face.
Li Shuang didn't care about that; she calmly said, "She helped me once, so I owe her a favor. When we meet again in the future, I will repay her."
The Human Skin Skeleton gave her a strange look: "Do you know what kind of being that is? A super giant dragon at the peak of Tribulation Transcending. You repay her? What qualifications do you have to repay her?"
Li Shuang said seriously, "Naturally not now, but the future is uncertain."
The Human Skin Skeleton was about to mock her.
Suddenly.
He remembered that Li Shuang possessed the Supreme Spirit Root, and fell silent.
If it was the Supreme Spirit Root...
Reaching the realm of the ice dragon might not be impossible.
What a pity, what a pity.
He, in this life, had no chance with the Great Dao.
The Human Skin Skeleton sighed, then said, "Alright, you can choose to leave Gluttony Hell now. This time, you should receive a good amount of soul point rewards."
"Wait," Li Shuang suddenly said, "They just said that after eating the last dish, you can choose to leave Gluttony Hell."
The Human Skin Skeleton nodded: "That's right."
"Then..." Li Shuang blinked, "What if I choose not to leave?"
The Human Skin Skeleton: "???"
No?
Is she sick?
