The Decomposition of Everything

Shen Zhi looked at the small village in front of him quietly. This small village was quite similar to the small mountain village they entered for the first time. It was built on the mountain, and the layers of houses were staggered, like a carefully painted scroll.

The style of the house was simple and elegant, and every stone and every tile revealed the traces of time. These houses seemed to be a perfect combination of the gift of nature and human wisdom, which not only conformed to the mountain, but also showed people's pursuit of a better life.

A few clouds and mists floated above the village, as if covering this peaceful little village with a mysterious veil. Among the clouds and mists, there were occasional sounds of chickens and dogs barking, adding a bit of pastoral life.

Shen Zhi pinched his fingers with both hands, and a cloud of mist magic rose up. He immersed himself in it to cover himself, and the secret soul return shadow ban was launched. The clouds and mist floated up to the sky and slowly went towards the village. It didn't take long to reach the sky above the village, and it was reflected by the surrounding clouds and mists, without any abruptness.

He looked through the clouds at the village below, but after some investigation, he did not see the familiar figure. After thinking for a moment, he decided to wait quietly.

The setting sun was slanting, and the golden afterglow dyed the whole world into a warm yellow. At this quiet and beautiful moment, a tall figure walked out of the jungle in the distance and was slowly walking towards the village.

The figure was tall and upright, like a towering mountain, giving people a feeling of indestructibility. His steps were steady and powerful, and every step seemed to leave a deep mark on the ground. As he approached, you can see that he was carrying a monster on his back, as if he had returned from hunting.

Before the strong man completely approached the village, the whole village seemed to be injected with new vitality and boiled instantly. Countless villagers came out of their houses one after another, with smiles of joy and expectation on their faces, and laughter and laughter came one after another.

He strode into the village and handed the monster prey on his back to everyone. The villagers gathered around and competed to watch this rare prey, with expressions of amazement and admiration on their faces.

The strong man smiled and said goodbye to everyone. His eyes revealed warmth and kindness, as if he had a deep friendship with every villager. He walked up along the stone path.

When he came to the largest house in the square on the top of the mountain, the strong man slowed down his pace. A beautiful young woman had already stood at the door, holding a baby in her arms, looking forward to his return. The young woman's face was filled with a happy smile, and her eyes were shining with anticipation, as if all the waiting and anticipation were satisfied at this moment.

The strong man walked up and gently embraced the young woman and the child in his arms, his eyes full of tenderness and pampering. Then, the strong man happily picked up the child alone, his movements were gentle and careful, for fear of hurting this delicate life. He looked at the little life in his arms lovingly, his eyes full of endless love and expectation. The child seemed particularly quiet in the arms of the strong man, as if he felt the deep and firm love of his father, and a sweet smile appeared on his little face.

The young woman watched this scene gently, her heart full of happiness and satisfaction. The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on them, stretching their figures long.

Shen Zhi looked at the scene below with a complicated expression. This was Fan Yong, whom they had been looking for. He actually chose another way. Looking at the little life showing a sweet smile in Fan Yong's arms, Shen Zhi slowly closed his eyes, and the clouds slowly drifted away.

In the distance, Shen Zhi took a deep breath, cancelled the clouds, and turned his head to look. In the square, Fan Yong's tall figure came into view. He held the child in one hand, his eyes firm and deep. The eyes of the two met in the air, as if there was an invisible force pulling them.

Shen Zhi let out a long roar and turned into a green dragon and galloped towards the north. Everything behind him seemed to have come to an end as he left.

Fan Yong had a complicated expression. He turned around and hugged the worried young woman, comforting her: "It's okay, an old friend!"

The Northwest Sword Sect is located on the top of a towering mountain. Its peak is covered with snow all year round, like a fairyland covered in silver. At the foot of the mountain is a majestic city with a solid and majestic momentum. It is closely connected with the mountain gate and jointly guards the peace of the Sword Sect.

Under the continuous mountains, the figures of countless monsters are looming. They are either lurking in the depths of the dense forest or wandering between the valleys, and sometimes they make earth-shaking roars with great momentum. These monsters are either fierce or cunning, but all of them are spiritual beasts with successful cultivation. Their existence adds a bit of mystery and danger to this mountain range.

Suddenly, there was a rapid sound of breaking through the air in the sky, and the flying monsters were seen surging like dark clouds. Their wings fluttered, bringing gusts of wind, and the whole sky seemed to be occupied by them. At the same time, several figures flew out of the Sword Sect's mountain gate. They were wearing the unique clothing of the Sword Sect, holding long swords, and fighting fiercely with flying monsters.

Outside the big city, it was even more dangerous. Countless monsters rushed towards the city walls all over the mountains.

The sword energy and the roar of the beasts intertwined to form a thrilling picture. The disciples of the Sword Sect were agile and had superb sword skills. Every sword they swung was full of thunder and lightning, making the flying monsters dare not approach easily. The monsters relied on their powerful bodies and sharp claws to fight a desperate battle with the disciples of the Sword Sect.

Shen Zhi stood on the city wall and flew his sword to attack the invading monsters. Seven days ago, he mixed with a group of casual cultivators and evacuated to this city at the foot of the Sword Sect's mountain gate. So far, all the territory outside the Sword Sect has been destroyed, leaving only this only city and the Sword Sect's mountain gate on the mountain.

The demons have occupied the entire territory of the Sword Sect. A small number of humans have fled to the south and entered the territory of the dynasty. Most of them have been eaten. This cruel reality makes Shen Zhi heartbroken. As he walked along, he saw countless corpses. Those once lively lives can only exist in this way in the world now. Most of them were cruelly devoured by the demons.

The demons are not the same as humans. Their cruelty and barbarity make Shen Zhi feel deeply disgusted.

Why did they fight here so quickly? When the northern node was broken, all forces went south and broke through most of the Sword Sect’s territory. The north is the most war-torn place.

Even if other forces such as the Demon Sect evacuated to the Green Water Wetland, the demons have been attacking, so the Sword Sect and the Beast King Sect have actually been crippled a long time ago. The Sword Sect is already the most powerful sect. If he is like this, the Beast King Sect is even more precarious. According to Qian Liuli’s information, the mountain gate formation is the most powerful. Other immortal sects need the Sword Sect and the Beast King Sect to contain the demons, otherwise they would have evacuated long ago.
