"Ten years..." Lěng Yè slowly opened his eyes, letting out a long breath as a sharp, fierce murderous intent flashed through his pupils. After more than three thousand days and nights of waiting, he had finally reached this moment—the Great Perfection of the Integration Realm, with only a single step remaining before a breakthrough. As long as he completed the task assigned by the withered corpse, he would be able to completely escape this lightless forbidden zone, return to the small world, rescue his imprisoned parents, and find the missing Tower Spirit.
Lěng Yè stood up, using his fingertips as a sword to trim his beard, tie up his long hair, and change into a green Daoist robe. However, when he saw the withered corpse again, he found the other party reduced to extreme frailty. Compared to the terror he felt during their first meeting ten years ago, the withered corpse no longer seemed frightening, even giving Lěng Yè the fleeting illusion that he could kill him. Yet this thought flashed through his mind for only a fraction of a second before he cast it aside. Without the help of the withered corpse, he might have already turned to dust; no matter what, he could never strike at the withered corpse.
