Night without Borders

Chapter 523: A Bountiful Harvest
The members of the cult felt as if they had encountered a kindred spirit, whose slogan, "Burn my heavenly light, purify the world," was far more evil than their own organization.

Qin Ming's body was "air-leaking," yet he walked bathed in sunlight, leaving a trail of golden footprints on the ruins, making him appear even more otherworldly.

Lin Shuyue was disheveled and covered in blood. He was being relentlessly pursued by the monster in his eyes, leaving him feeling utterly helpless.

Qin Ming was practically a walking human form of divine light. Wherever he passed, broken walls and ruins melted away, and brass bricks and silver tiles crumbled. He carried a giant hammer that had materialized from divine light, and he smashed forward again and again.

The night fog exploded, the ruins shattered, the earth split into pieces, and heavy golden pillars and huge bronze lions were all blown into the sky.

Lin Shuyue had never felt so frustrated. He felt like a groundhog, hiding here and there, only to be smashed by an exaggerated hammer of light the moment he showed his face.

Behind him lay devastation and ruin, the ground sinking and huge black cracks spreading far and wide, affecting distant houses and streets.

This was the result of the Old Tree Man, Red Bird Master, and Upright Ape Demon joining the battle and continuously attacking Hu Dingming.

Suddenly, Lin Shuyue felt the void distort, the night fog burning, and his back burning with intense pain, as if it were about to burst. He knew that his opponent was rapidly approaching.

He was forced to turn around and fight. In that instant, he could see nothing else but the light of day, which filled his vision and overwhelmed him.

"Ah..." he howled, his hair disheveled, his eyes almost bursting out of their sockets. He fought back with all his might, and seven-colored divine light burst forth from his flesh and blood.

His energy and spirit were boiling, erupting in full force to confront the giant hammer that seemed capable of smashing the sky.

With a loud bang, Lin Shuyue coughed up a mouthful of blood. Not only that, but blood was also flowing from his ears, nose, and eyes, his seven orifices were bright red, and cracks appeared on his body.

The ground beneath his feet exploded, and then he was sent flying, blood splattering everywhere.

Lin Shuyue felt a sense of panic. The monster behind him, radiating a holy light, was somewhat unsolvable and suffocating. No wonder it was highly valued and traced by the Dream Insects.

Qin Ming said, "Hand over my 'Reappearance in the Human World'!"

Lin Shuyue's chest heaved violently, his lungs felt like they were about to explode with anger. Their god-like society had always been domineering, but now they had encountered a tough opponent who not only robbed them openly but also acted with righteous indignation.

Qin Ming was surrounded by a rain of light, treading lightly through the air, carrying a house-sized light hammer in his hand, exuding a sense of oppression. The hammer was covered with patterns of Hunyuan energy, causing the night sky to explode.

With a thud, he suddenly crashed into the sky. The Red Bird Grandmaster, who was silently swooping down, changed direction at lightning speed and was almost hit.

The giant hammer, accompanied by a terrifying gale and intense sunlight, grazed it slightly, causing its red feathers to bristle and making it feel immense pressure.

Suddenly, Qin Ming moved like a god or demon wandering in the depths of the night mist, his speed was unbelievable. Thunder wings appeared on his back, and tangible patterns intertwined under his feet, allowing him to teleport through the ruins.

He swung the sledgehammer, nearly smashing Lin Shuyue to pieces, causing his bones to crack and break many of them.

However, his true target was not this divine child, but the Dream Worm, which he had finally found.

Qin Ming felt that this insect was dangerous and sinister, as it could see through some of his secrets and its abilities were too outstanding. He wanted to take it down.

The Dream Insect extracts all the laws of the world and comprehends the Dao in the great dye vat of human life. Even the gods are wary of it. It is said that after three generations of the insect, it will eventually be sent into the depths of the Night Fog World.

Qin Ming's eyes were deep. Now that he had provoked it, there was no way to back down. He wanted to capture the insect or kill it directly.

"Where do you think you're going?" He smashed the ruins in front of him with a hammer.

Within a piece of bone-chilling ice, a dream insect, only an inch long, with transparent wings carrying starlight, suddenly flew away.

It transmitted its voice: "Activate the formation!"

In the ruins, intricate silver lines lit up and stretched into the night sky, trying to trap Qin Ming here.

Nearby, those from the Divine Alliance below the Grandmaster level seemed to have heard some kind of summons. No longer afraid, they surged out like a tide, coordinating with the magic array to attack.

Many people unleashed their extraordinary treasures, bombarding Hu Dingming with them. Others took out their spirit bows, unleashing a dense barrage of spirit arrows to shoot down the trapped young grandmaster.

"A hastily arranged magic array, trying to trap me?" The purple-gold core within Qin Ming's body was interwoven with patterns of heaven and earth, exceptionally dazzling. He focused on casting lightning spells, attacking in only one direction.

He had sensed the commotion here long ago, and even caught the subtle emotional fluctuations, knowing that a fragmented magic array was taking shape.

He asked Huang Luogai San, and she said that the magic array was nothing special and that he could pass through it.

With a loud boom, bolts of lightning struck one after another. It seemed as if Qin Ming was breaking the spell with brute force, but suddenly the Emperor's Umbrella spun, carrying him in another direction.

Qin Ming unleashed a barrage of deadly attacks, including sword strikes and thunder seals, targeting the lurking dream insect.

The dream insect fled in panic, its body stained with blood as it teleported. The golden needles embedded in its body were stained with blood, and its injured body could not withstand the force of its exertion.

It was restless, and that should have been its cure, perhaps the other party could have led it out of its predicament, but now it brought a crisis.

"Yes, fortune and misfortune are intertwined." It realized something, having vaguely caught a glimpse of the light at the end of the tunnel, but failed to notice the calamity that would follow.

"Didn't catch it!" Qin Ming was furious. This insect was so badly injured that it could teleport repeatedly and eventually disappeared into an underground crack, making it impossible to capture.

He broke out of the magic array and immediately charged towards Lin Shuyue. He had to make a choice; he couldn't have everything. He had to take the "Reappearance of the Human World" rare flower first.

Along the way, Qin Ming saw the members of the God-like Society who surrounded the magic array. They showed no mercy, fully activating their Primordial Spirit Field and, in conjunction with the Earth Magnetism Scripture, causing tangible ripples to expand outwards.

Right now, any enemy below the Grandmaster level who gets close to him is practically slaughtered, without a doubt.

Wherever Qin Ming passed, the void blurred, as if a terrible collapse was taking place. The physical bodies of those godlike members twisted instantly, and with popping sounds, they exploded one after another.

Some people, however, went mad, drawn by the hallucinatory phantom of the Great Dream Mushroom in the Primordial Spirit Field, their mental fields became disordered, and they even began to kill each other.

"Use people as a formation!" Lin Shuyue was anxious. He saw Qin Ming walking in the light, with blood and gore along the way, rapidly approaching him. There was no way to avoid him.

He transmitted his voice to the several grandmasters: "Please gather your followers immediately, form a human formation, and refine the spirit of the target. His physical body has already been shattered, so take this opportunity to sever his consciousness!"

"Try it!"

"It seems I'll be seriously ill afterward."

Old Tree Man, Red Bird Master, and others all agreed, mainly because they felt that Hu Dingming was too fierce and arrogant. Even if they joined forces, they couldn't subdue him. If things continued like this, he would defeat them one by one.

They quickly instructed their men, saying, "Activate the human body magic array and refine his spirit!"

In an instant, apart from the people Qin Ming crushed along the way, all the other members of the Godlike Society had bloodshot eyes, booming mental fields, and special patterns appearing in their bodies.

In an instant, a vast network of consciousness seemed to form within the ruins, empowered by a rare treasure. Each line of the network, like a red-hot branding iron, reached out to cover Qin Ming.

The human body magic array is called: Refining the Spirit! As the name suggests, it is simple and clear.

At this moment, Qin Ming's dilapidated body finally gave way and completely disintegrated. His celestial light and fused consciousness flew out, abandoning the tiger clan's remains.

In an instant, everyone felt as if their eyes had been pricked by needles. The light was too dazzling, several times more intense than before, like the blazing sun overhead.

Qin Ming frowned, completely lost in thought. He did feel the oppression of this place, with the Spirit Refining Array covering him, but it only made him uncomfortable and he did not feel that it was a catastrophe.

Because he tempered his consciousness with the light of heaven, even when he was refining his spirit, and had been receiving thunder and fire for two consecutive rainy seasons, his consciousness was not afraid of this kind of magic array even without the protection of his physical body.

"Over here!" The White Tiger Grandmaster transmitted her voice. She had just blocked the upright ape demon, and now she gestured for Hu Dingming to come over and use her body for protection.

In fact, with the Yellow Silk Umbrella in hand, Qin Ming was not afraid of the Refining God Array, after all, Old Huang was very good at this field.

However, he still made a move. Being close to the White Tiger Grandmaster, if she really had a problem, it would be a good opportunity to probe her.

He figured that if the White Tiger Grandmaster was terrifying enough and wanted to harm him, there was no need to complicate things; he could just take him down directly.

The next instant, Qin Ming successfully possessed the body. His consciousness, enveloped in the Primordial Heavenly Light, merged into the body of the White Tiger Grandmaster, who generously gave him control.

In an instant, Qin Ming opened his eyes. This feeling was really strange. He shook his head, and his waist-length silver hair cascaded down like a waterfall.

He didn't notice anything unusual about the physical body. Meanwhile, the White Tiger Grandmaster, transformed into a miniature silver-haired little girl, was already seated deep within the body.

"It's time to end this!" Qin Ming scanned the surroundings, an imperial umbrella hovering above his head. Then, he moved with... elegant cat-like steps, approaching the crowd.

This body's instincts are really strange. Qin Ming is very masculine, but now he walks with a graceful, lotus-like gait.

He accelerated instantly, shooting out like a divine rainbow, heading straight for Lin Shuyue, determined to get his hands on that priceless auction item first.

The great battle broke out again, and the Golden Ape Demon and the Old Treant began to fight desperately. They knew that if another Grandmaster was killed, none of them would have a good end. They were destined to collapse completely and be eliminated one by one.

Above the ruins, not only his opponents but even Qin Ming himself felt uncomfortable; when he glared at them, he didn't look fierce enough.

The yellow parasol further indicated that his eyes were sparkling and full of life.

In particular, when he swung his leg horizontally, even he found it an eyesore—it was so white, so long, and had a soft, beautiful quality.

In addition, his waist was too slender when he turned around, making it difficult for him to move his strength smoothly.

Before the enemy could do anything, Qin Ming himself couldn't take it anymore and said, "I'll just return your physical body to you!"

He fought his way to safety, breaking free of that beautiful body. If he continued fighting like this, he would be defeated by himself; his movements were too effeminate and too feminine.

Qin Ming emerged from his spiritual journey, instantly radiating a blazing sun, unleashing an extremely powerful and fierce force that charged towards the opposite side.

"Refining the spirit... is useless against him!"

The masters present were astonished to discover this fact. To what extent had this young master's consciousness become so pure that he no longer needed a physical body?
At this time, Qin Ming was at the height of his power.

Those who were not at the Grandmaster level in the Divine Realm looked at him as Qin Ming had looked at Cao Qianqiu, who was like a blazing sun, and thought him to be fierce, arrogant, and invincible.

Qin Ming has mastered too many scriptures. Every move he makes is a marvel. He uses various combinations, and every casual strike he makes is incredibly powerful.

Just like now, as he activated the "Divine Cicada Scripture," in an instant, a thousand cicadas took flight, their deafening cries swarming towards all his opponents.

During this process, he used the "Primordial Thunder Seal" to empower the thousand cicadas. In an instant, all the golden cicadas were engraved with thunder patterns. This fusion made their power far greater than before.

The younger generation of the Godlike Society were filled with terror. There was no way to avoid it. The Thousand Cicadas were as fast as lightning, and many people were blasted through their bodies.

Even Lin Shuyue, a grandmaster, panicked; his shoulder blades seemed to explode.

Because Qin Ming was mainly targeting him, he used every means at his disposal to unleash his fury on this divine son.

Undoubtedly, Lin Shuyue is quite amazing; otherwise, he would have been eliminated long ago and wouldn't have been able to hold on until now.

As Qin Ming went almost berserk, lightning seals, black and white light, and geomagnetic lines intertwined densely in front of him. Lin Shuyue could not hold on any longer. Even with other grandmasters by his side fighting alongside him, he was still severely injured.

Qin Ming unleashed the full power of the Hunyuan Blade Light, and the gleaming Heavenly Blade sliced ​​through the night sky, severing Lin Shuyue's arm and drawing large amounts of blood.

With a whoosh, Qin Ming swept away the severed arm with the light of the sky. He tore off the storage bracelet and saw "Reappearance of the Human World" sealed inside the jade box.

"Finally got it!" Qin Ming was very satisfied. This was one of the most valuable items at the Kaiyuan Grand Gathering, perhaps carrying the information and secrets of a deceased immortal who had struggled to return to the human world from the realm of death.

Of course, its medicinal value is even more astonishing, and even the most powerful experts in the seventh realm crave it, wanting to refine it into the Dragon-Tiger Elixir.

Lin Shuyue's eyes turned red. This wasn't his own property; it was an item he had won in an auction on behalf of his elderly father, a true deity.

Several grandmasters were somewhat apprehensive. Could they really not hold them off? Apart from Grandmaster Red Bird, who could escape at any time, the others were all uncertain.

"Gentlemen, help me! I am prepared to fight to the death to evolve the Forest Sanctuary!" the old tree man said. He was the slowest among those present, and even if he wanted to run away, he might not be able to escape. Therefore, he had no choice but to fight to the death.

Qin Ming said, "If you capture the Dream Insects, I will cease hostilities and depart."

"Stop trying to sow discord!" The grandmasters knew that they either had to hold out until the old god and the grandmaster returned, or they would have to save themselves. If they compromised, everything would collapse.

The old tree's body swelled dramatically, like an ancient giant resurrected, its head covered in lush green, and the miniature forest was expanding, threatening to cover the area.

Even the fifteen-meter-tall upright ape demon was no taller than him. The Red Bird Grandmaster, Lin Shuyue, who had lost an arm, activated his divine power to help him expand the sacred forest domain.

Having the title of "Saint" attached to it, it goes without saying that this is an extraordinary skill.

The old tree man's energy surged, green clouds billowed, and his body showed signs of lignification, with the old tree bark on his body cracking, as if he were about to transform into a tree that could reach the heavens.

The so-called Forest Sanctuary was indeed somewhat beyond its scope. The moment the old tree spirit cast its spell, the Sanctuary had already been activated on Hu Dingming and had taken effect.

Qin Ming was enveloped in a lush green glow, finding himself in a wild, untamed forest.

He could even see five-colored deer running in the forest, giant red bulls grazing amidst the flickering flames, and giant apes roaring to the sky.

Everything in this sacred forest felt so real, like a small world in itself.

"Fellow Daoists, help me refine the Forest Sacred Domain and obliterate this fiend!" the old treant roared, for he could not hold on much longer; his energy expenditure was too great.

"This is interesting." Qin Ming circulated the "Scripture of Longevity" here and found it particularly smooth because wisps of longevity energy were permeating the air.

With a loud bang, he punched the forest floor, trying to break through it.

"Fellow Daoists, help me!" The old tree man was somewhat alarmed, fearing that the other party would blast through the sacred forest domain, which would put him in grave danger.

We'll help you!

After trying several times, Qin Ming felt that he could break through this place, but it would consume a lot of daylight. Now he decided to try a different method.

He used his Chaotic Energy to circulate the "Scripture of Preserving the World," and in an instant, green mist surged, and a rich vitality overwhelmed the place.

"He is stripping... me of my life force!" The old tree man was shocked. This had never happened before; his opponent was stealing the power of his forest sanctuary.

Qin Ming's chaotic energy was like a black hole, frantically absorbing the old tree man's wood attribute power. After all, he was grounded and standing in the forest sanctuary, so the two were stuck together.

He had already mastered the art of silk calligraphy to an unparalleled level, possessing not only the wondrous sight of a jade burial suit but also a terrifying ability to devour.

However, this ability to devour is more suitable for dealing with beings of the same origin; otherwise, it is difficult to extract the essence of heavenly light, and one can only borrow its power temporarily.

Qin Ming and the other party were from different origins, so he didn't care whether the other party's life force was too mixed or not. In any case, it was just something he was using, and it was enough to have it for a short time.

In the blink of an eye, Qin Ming's consciousness body's hair turned emerald green, even his eyelashes, and every pore on his body was bursting with green light, its vitality so rich it was almost overwhelming.

Without hesitation, he focused all his energy on gathering the longevity sword intent hidden within the "Scripture of Worldly Preservation".

This kind of unparalleled sword intent, which is not recorded in writing, consumes a great deal of energy and is difficult to unleash consecutively. Even Qin Ming can only unleash seven sword strikes at present.

However, the situation was somewhat different this time. He did not consume his own source power and felt no pressure.

Furthermore, Qin Ming achieved a state of harmony with nature as a result, mobilizing the power of the wood element, and unleashing an even more powerful and majestic Longevity Sword Intent.

Clearly, his so-called unity of heaven and man meant merging with the sacred forest and devouring the original power of the old tree man.

"Something's not right!" The old tree man's face turned green on the spot, and the life force within him surged into the sacred forest domain as if a dam had been breached.

With a thunderous boom, Qin Ming's first sword strike shattered the green light barrier, transmitting his sword intent to the outside world.

Then, he laughed heartily, supported by a bright green leaf, and wielded a branch with tender buds, swinging it at his opponent outside.

Lin Shuyue, the Golden Ape Demon, and the Red Bird Grandmaster were all taken aback. What was going on? They quickly dodged.

Qin Ming was beaming with joy, feeling an even stronger connection with the source of his inspiration. He found it so easy to unleash the Longevity Sword Intent using the boundless vitality of the vegetation, and its power was terrifying.

He swung his sword repeatedly, and with a soft thud, the fifteen-meter-tall ape demon was struck, its shoulder completely pierced, and blood splattered everywhere.

“Old Tree Man…” several masters shouted, naturally realizing that the situation was dire.

"I...can't control it!" the old tree man cried out.

What shocked him most was that he also felt a sense of oneness with nature, but he was the one who gave, and human effort was returned to nature.

Qin Ming's harmony with nature means borrowing power from heaven.

Then, all the masters present saw that the old tree man's huge, mountain-like body was shrinking, and his lush green hair turned grayish-white.

Moreover, the entire sacred forest was dimming, and the green light was thinning at a visible rate.

Qin Ming discovered that this so-called Forest Sanctuary was suspended above the old tree man's head, as if he were stepping on his opponent to strike with his sword.

Qin Ming unleashed his final three sword strikes, each more powerful than the last, even briefly locking onto his opponent, demonstrating the boundless power of his sword intent.

Lin Shuyue and the Golden Ape Demon were both severely injured and nearly cut in two by Qin Ming's powerful sword intent. Even the Red Bird Grandmaster, who had hidden in the clouds, had his wings stained with blood.

The old tree was listless and collapsed on the ground.

Qin Ming launched his final, decisive attack. He knew this place was no longer safe to linger; the great battle was about to end.

He summoned 108 small black swords and activated the "Primordial Thunder Script". The densely packed thunder and fire swords pierced the sky, each carrying a long, faint light, creating a magnificent spectacle.

With a series of thuds, Lin Shuyue and the Golden Ape Demon were pierced through, their flesh and blood flying everywhere. They were nearly torn apart on the spot, but they were, after all, Grandmasters, and roared as they fought back.

As for the old tree man, he had long since withered on the ground, with withered branches and rotten leaves covering the ground, and he looked as if he had aged hundreds of years.

Qin Ming ignored them and instead rode the Thunderfire Sword into the sky, targeting the Red Bird Grandmaster who could fly and disappear into the earth.

The chirping of birds echoed continuously in the night sky.

Finally, the Red Bird Master let out a shrill scream as its body was pierced, a piece of its bright red beak was broken off, and one of its claws was severed. It fled in a sorry state.

Qin Ming sighed inwardly. He didn't have time to fly after him and could only watch as the Red Bird Grandmaster fled at top speed.

He swooped down to the ground and found that although the golden giant pierced by the Thunderfire Sword was severely injured, it had not faced a life-or-death crisis and was still roaring.

The golden ape demon knew that it was no match for its opponent in speed and could not escape.

He roared, "One last gamble!"

In an instant, he was covered in blood, his fur seemed to be burning, and flames soared into the sky. His massive body, which was over ten meters tall, was filled with boiling energy and spirit.

The ape demon moved both hands simultaneously, and in an instant, it conjured thirteen special hand seals, and thirteen hazy figures appeared.

He's going to fight this hard.

"Fellow Daoist, I have no strength left," the old treant said weakly.

"Brother Ape Demon, I'm here to help you!" Lin Shuyue said, and seven-colored divine light soared into the sky, almost materializing.

"Hmm?" Qin Ming was startled, a sense of dread rising within him. Someone was secretly watching him, and was close by.

He realized that it was that dream bug again, arriving quietly at the crucial moment and using special methods.

Qin Ming sheathed all his Thunderfire Swords and used his most powerful trump card, employing the meaning of the Silk Scripture to unify all laws. The auras were dense and intertwined.

"Hmm, could it be a Grandmaster?" Qin Ming's heart pounded, as if he were about to suffocate.

Without a second thought, he took out the rotten fan and pointed it in a certain direction based on his intuition. In an instant, the sense of threat subsided like a receding tide.

Is the other side also wary of him?
Qin Ming sneered. He was already close to the surface and had already unleashed his strongest chaotic energy. There was no way he could stop. He poured all his strength into attacking the golden ape demon and Lin Shuyue.

Dozens of divine rings resonated and trembled violently. Although he had consumed a great deal of energy, this was indeed Qin Ming's strongest technique, and its destructive power was terrifying.

The fifteen-meter-tall ape demon was the first to be hit. His body trembled violently, and blood was everywhere, with countless wounds bursting open. However, he managed to block the first attack.

Qin Ming remained indifferent, disregarding the cost, and continued to strike with heavy blows, repeatedly punching and striking down palm prints in mid-air. This was arguably the most ferocious burst of Chaos Force, like a divine waterfall cascading down, or a galaxy hanging upside down, engulfing what lay below.

"Ah..." the ape demon screamed in agony. No matter how powerful his thirteen magic seals were, he could only hold on for a moment before he could no longer bear it, and blood splattered all over his body.

Qin Ming's expression was solemn. This opponent was extremely strong. Even after he used his trump card, the opponent was able to withstand a wave of attacks, which was truly remarkable.

Unfortunately, the enormous ape demon was still defeated and perished. Its golden fur exploded inch by inch, its flesh fell off, its bones broke, and it began to disintegrate from head to toe.

Lin Shuyue chickened out and decisively used the seven-colored divine light to transform into a seven-colored arched bridge, connecting to the distance. He suddenly disappeared from beside the ape demon and fled to the horizon.

He was much shorter than the ape demon, which was over ten meters tall, so most of the attacks were absorbed by the ape demon.

On the ground, the old tree-man gave a bitter laugh. He was unable to escape, his body shattered by the falling chaotic force, with withered branches and fallen leaves scattered everywhere. In his fragmented state, he was in a precarious situation.

Blood rained down from mid-air, and the shattered skull, severed hands, and arm bones of the ape demon crashed down like a collapsing jade mountain.

The bloody scene was enough to send chills down your spine.

Qin Ming threw punches repeatedly, shattering the ape demon's pure yang consciousness several times. Then, he let Huang Luo's umbrella swallow it, while he took the storage bracelet.

On the ground, the old tree-man's body had turned into charcoal.

A vibrant green seed trembled beneath the ashes, but the old tree spirit miraculously brought the withered tree back to life.

Qin Ming felt a chill run down his spine again. He suddenly shifted his body to the side, leaving the rotten fan in a semi-revival state.

He saw the dream insect, hovering in the distance. Most unusually, a ball of light emanated from it, within which was a humanoid figure about an inch tall, treading on the air before finally stopping.

Qin Ming felt a chill run down his spine. The hazy little man's eyes were incredibly deep and unusual, looking as if he had been weathered by time and was unfathomable.

He had some doubts; could it be an illusion of the old worm?

Qin Ming noticed that the other party was also somewhat wary of him, staring at his rotten fan for a long time.

He immediately understood that the phantom existed primarily to protect the Dream Worm, and was forced to appear at the last moment.

Obviously, if the phantom is consumed, and the dream insect is in danger, there's no guarantee that something won't happen.

Qin Ming spoke up at the opportune moment: "I have no intention of hunting dream insects, I only want to protect myself."

Then he turned and left.

He had reaped a great harvest and saw no need to take any more risks.

"Are you leaving?" Qin Ming asked the White Tiger Grandmaster.

She nodded and said, "Take me away."

As she spoke, her body shrank. Although her silver hair was still waist-length, she was very tiny, less than the height of a palm. Her wild beauty faded, and her big eyes became clear, as if she were aging in reverse.

"Okay, let's go!" Qin Ming grabbed her hand, his mind wandering for a moment, and headed into the distance.

Soon after, he sensed something unusual behind him; some creature was following him.
