Chapter 0055 – I Know You – The Absolute Return

If the giant waves kept lapping like this non-stop, even the greatest of experts would be exhausted alive. I must find a way to break the illusion as soon as possible.

I looked around and even dove into the water, looking for the blue glow, but the water was pitch black and I couldn’t see anything.

A second huge wave engulfed me again, and I used my Heavenly Demon Body Protecting Technique to resist the impact before surfacing again. I looked around and it was still an endless sea.

Trying to find a way to break the illusion in this vast ocean was harder than climbing up to heaven.

That blue glow, where the hell is it? There are no seagulls here, no reefs, just me and the sea.

“Gotta give me a hint, right?”

That’s when something occurred to me.

“Could it be ……”

I leapt out of the water and tried to find the object, but I was swallowed up by a third huge wave when I didn’t find it.

I leapt out of the water again before the fourth huge wave came and desperately searched for the object.

I finally found it.

“I hope this is it!”

What I found was the same log I first stood on.

I flipped the wood over and noticed that at the bottom of the wood, there was a blue glow.

The Blood Eyes Pure Water was always able to accurately point out the way to break the illusions, and this time, I actually lampshaded it. In this vast ocean, the only thing that could protect me was this log, and it was no wonder I ignored it.

Perhaps the blue glow was originally at the top of the log and only became the bottom because the log rolled over in the waves.

Before the fourth huge wave came, I swung my Black Demon Sword and chopped at the log.

“Ka-ching!”

Just then, the huge wave suddenly disappeared and so did the ocean.

The Soul Regenerating Demon’s killer weapon was cracked by me just like that, but he didn’t show any frustration.

The scenery around them changed once again, and the Soul Regenerating Demon Sovereign executed various powerful demonic techniques one after another.

I saw about thirty mirrors appear around me.

In the mirror, reflecting my whole life.

There was the way I looked as a child, the way I look now, the way I look in middle age, and the way I look in old age, as if my entire life had been condensed into these thirty or so mirrors.

I walked slowly, looking at myself in the mirror. Most of it was what I had experienced in my previous life, but some, I had never experienced before, especially in the last mirror, which was so old that I hardly recognized myself.

I saw my own death.

I asked myself in the mirror, “Do you regret it?”

In the mirror, lying on the bed, thin and bony, with empty eyes, he lay there alone, with no one to keep him company, a lonely and desolate death.

This isn’t my future, it’s an illusion created by the Dementors. Perhaps, someone will not be able to resist breaking the mirror, but that will only make it worse.

I reached out and gently touched the old man in the mirror.

“You’ve killed so many people and you still want a happy ending? You are too greedy, Jian Wuji. If you killed Hua Wuji and saved those who deserved it, perhaps, you could still have a decent death.”

I was consoling myself and myself in the mirror. What would my death, really, be like? Would I die alone, like he did? Or will I laugh at death and comfort those who live?

“It’s okay, go ahead, I know you.”

I stroked myself in the mirror, perhaps, comforting my current self, telling myself, it’s okay, you’re doing fine.

I walked over to a mirror that, in it, reflected me a few years later, and around it, there was a blue glow.

“Come on, let’s get out.”

“Ka-ching!”

I swung my black magic sword and broke the mirror.

I saw the Dementor Demon Lord standing behind the shards of the mirror with a surprised look on his face.

“How did you know it was this mirror?”

Out of the thirty or so mirrors, there was only one mirror that would allow me to leave the illusion.

“If you break the other mirrors, the mirrors become twice as big, then four times as big, eight times as big …… You’ll be trapped here forever.”

“I’ve had better luck.”

“Luck? It’s not luck, you ……”

The Soul Regenerating Demon’s face became very ugly as he finally realized that it wasn’t luck, but strength.

He trembled and asked, “You …… you practiced the Nine Specters Demon Skill?”

Before I could answer, he was sure.

“Damn Demon Lord, he’s hiding from us and secretly cultivating an heir!”

He thought that it was my father’s arrangement because he couldn’t understand why my dementia would not work on him.

He growled angrily, “How dare he use this against me? Despicable and shameless! The Demon Monarch never reveals his true thoughts, he only stabs people in the back!”

“Wait, you’ve got one thing wrong, other than this, when has my father ever stabbed you in the back?”

“What?”

“You say he’s always backstabbing, so tell me what else he’s done to wrong you?”

The Soul Regenerating Demon was dumbfounded.

“My father has said that you are the most feared person in the righteous world, and he has a high opinion of you, do you think that he would stab you in the back? I don’t believe it.”

“What the hell are you trying to say?”

“I just wanted to tell you not to just slander my father. He’s been hesitant to kill you, and perhaps, he’ll punish me for it.”

“Then why did you do it?”

“I’ve thought carefully about it, those people who were brutalized by you, they were originally living an ordinary life, farming, doing business, reading, practicing martial arts, they were suddenly captured and had their hearts ripped out alive, how wronged should they have been?”

“This world is inherently unfair, and if they feel wronged, they should strive to become strong.”

“Today, let you experience what it’s like to be wronged!”

Although the Soul Regenerating Demon thought that I had practiced the Nine Devil’s Skills, he didn’t feel scared because of it.

“You said you investigated me? That’s right, you’ve investigated very carefully, I know that you’ve always wanted to live forever, do you think that I would have never thought that one day, the Demon Lord would betray me and send someone to kill me?”

He still thinks that it was my father’s arrangement.

“Do you know why I practiced the Soul Regeneration Technique? Simply to boost my power a little?”

“Isn’t it?”

“Of course not!”

A black smoke suddenly emerged from the body of the Soul Regenerating Demon.

“You’re saying I turned into a monster? Have you ever seen a real monster?”

In the black smoke, his body began to change, he became even taller, his skin turned black, his eyes turned blood red, his ears became pointed, and in his chest, there was a huge heart beating.

Is this an illusion, or is it real?

His aura became stronger and colder, and I immediately felt a strong pressure. It seemed that this was the killer weapon he had prepared to deal with the Nine Specter Demon Power.

“I’m going to tear apart your Nine Specters Demonic Technique!”

He released a powerful demonic aura, which was darker and more evil than normal demonic aura.
