Mortal Mirror

To Li Ergou's surprise, the gate wasn't as heavy as he had imagined; it opened with a gentle push.

A sense of ancient vicissitudes and primeval wildness rushed towards them.

Before Li Ergou and Zhu Zhu could take a step forward, they saw a towering, gigantic sword shadow of immeasurable height descending from the sky, its immense sword intent seemingly capable of cleaving through the void.

Li Ergou and Zhu Zhu simultaneously took a step back, but the gate behind them was suddenly slammed shut by a mysterious force.

With no escape or evasion possible, Li Ergou immediately pulled Zhu Zhu behind him, circulating his spiritual power to defend against the attack.

In that moment when Li Ergou pulled her back, Zhu Zhu felt a warmth in her heart, seeing Li Ergou's care and attention for her, so meticulous. In such a life-or-death crisis, he had unhesitatingly stood in front of her.

In this world, perhaps even her own parents wouldn't be able to do that.

Li Ergou didn't think about all that; at this moment, looking at the sword shadow descending from the sky, he was also filled with panic. But his death was insignificant; he hoped to withstand the attack so that Zhu Zhu could survive.

However, the sword shadow was enormous, and the incredibly powerful aura of the sword Dao made him feel a sense of helplessness for the first time.

The massive sword shadow still descended, but at the last moment, Li Ergou gave up resisting, directly turning around and embracing Zhu Zhu, saying, "Since resistance is futile, it's better to die peacefully. I'm sorry, Zhu Zhu, I didn't expect it to end like this."

Zhu Zhu also hugged him, whispering, "I'm not afraid as long as I'm with you."

Boom!

The sword light struck them fiercely, but surprisingly, it passed through them and struck the ground, directly cleaving a massive fissure into the earth that stretched for countless miles.

Li Ergou and Zhu Zhu were dumbfounded.

Then, Li Ergou exclaimed excitedly, "We didn't die! What's going on? What's happening?"

Zhu Zhu looked into the distance at the countless massive sword shadows, saber shadows, and staff shadows falling, with blood flying everywhere.

She reached out to touch those things and suddenly seemed to understand something.

Her eyes lit up, and she said with joy, "Ergou, I understand! Look, it turns out everything is real, but it's like we've intruded into a different space-time. Although those things appear before us, they seem to be happening in another dimension."

"Although we can feel the power of the sword intent and see the seemingly real sword shadows, everything is illusory and can't actually strike us."

Hearing Zhu Zhu's explanation, Li Ergou looked down and realized it was true, as a massive chasm had just been cleaved beneath their feet.

In reality, they were still standing on the ground, but it was as if they were suspended in mid-air, which was incredibly magical.

Li Ergou didn't know how to express his amazement. He looked into the distance and frowned, saying, "This place seems to be a huge battlefield.

But this battlefield is so terrifying; I doubt if this is power that humans can possess."

Boom!

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud bang, and the sky was actually blasted open by a huge fist, yes, he wasn't mistaken, the sky really had a hole punched through it.

And in front of him appeared a giant as tall as a mountain.

At this moment, a nine-headed feathered serpent, hundreds of feet long, spread its wings and flew towards the giant. It suddenly pounced on the giant, and the two began to fight fiercely.

Although the nine-headed feathered serpent was powerful and ferocious, the giant grabbed two of its wings and tore them off with a violent force.

Endless blood rained down.

Then, he clasped his hands together and directly twisted off the nine-headed serpent's necks.

It was as easy as killing a chicken. Li Ergou was so shocked that he didn't know what to say.

Suddenly, the giant looked towards Li Ergou, and Li Ergou's heart skipped a beat, feeling as if he was being watched by an ancient beast.

He felt his mouth dry and parched, and he was really afraid that the giant's huge hand would break through space and directly grab him.

Fortunately, the giant immediately looked away and continued forward.

Li Ergou and Zhu Zhu also immediately followed behind the giant. At this moment, the two finally understood that nothing here could harm them.

However, the two still couldn't figure out whether these scenes were events that had already happened or images projected from another space-time; it was all so confusing.

Looking into the distance, there were countless huge human figures, either wielding giant swords or spears, fighting with countless giant demons and devils.

Li Ergou had always been wondering if these giants were the legendary gods; otherwise, how could their bodies be so huge, so unbelievably large?

He had never seen or heard of such a huge human race.

"The Azure Sky is dead, the Yellow Sky shall rise!" At this moment, Li Ergou spoke these words, as if he understood something inexplicably.

To his surprise, after he spoke these words, countless humans, demons, and devils all stopped fighting and looked at Li Ergou.

There was even a hint of disbelief in their eyes.

Suddenly, the giant's voice, like a primordial bell, came, "What did you say? What did you just say?"

Li Ergou looked at Zhu Zhu, swallowed hard, opened his mouth wide, and said with a look of disbelief, "The Azure Sky is dead, the Yellow Sky shall rise."

Li Ergou clearly saw the giant's body tremble slightly, and his voice even trembled as he said, "The Azure Sky... The Azure Sky is dead, the Azure Sky is dead."

"Roar..."

"Ah..."

Countless giants and those giant demons began to shout hysterically, and countless beams of light spewed from their mouths into the sky.

Then, one by one, the giant demons and giants began to shatter and eventually annihilate.

The giant demons disappeared, and the giants also disappeared. The vast and mighty battle that had just taken place vanished in an instant.

Li Ergou didn't know what had happened. He looked at Zhu Zhu and asked in a low voice, "What's going on? Why did this happen? Did... did I say something wrong?"

Zhu Zhu said with a wry smile, "How would I know? It's just too incredible that they can actually see us."

The giant was silent for a long time. Finally, he took a deep look at Li Ergou and said, "Follow me."

Although Li Ergou didn't understand why, he nodded and followed the giant forward.

As they walked, Li Ergou suddenly realized that they could fly here.

囧...

Li Ergou immediately summoned his flying sword and flew into the sky with Zhu Zhu, closely following behind the giant. At this moment, apart from the heavy sound of the giant's footsteps, it was very quiet.

"Where is he taking us?" Zhu Zhu asked with a puzzled look.

Li Ergou was also confused. Fortunately, after walking for hundreds of miles, the giant finally stopped, and in front of them appeared a huge stone tablet.
