The entire fifth floor was silent. The girl, Ah Xiu, was bleeding from all seven orifices and unable to speak. The large black cat, which had been radiating a dazzling light, had become extremely silent and quiet since entering the White Emperor Tower. At this moment, its pair of green cat eyes were staring into the depths of the corridor, as if something unknown was lurking there.

At this moment, Li Musheng flicked his finger, and a wisp of energy entered the body of the girl, Ah Xiu. He then reached out and wiped the blood from her face, saying:
"This place is very strange. The more you get involved, the easier it is to be manipulated. You need to be more careful from now on."

As Li Musheng finished speaking, the girl Axiu shook her head vigorously. The feeling of blood draining from her seven orifices had disappeared. She opened her mouth slightly, preparing to thank Li Musheng.

But the next moment, the girl Ah Xiu was suddenly stunned by what she saw.

The once magnificent palace buildings transformed rapidly in her vision; the jade-paved floors became rows of rotten, cracked wood; the carved beams and painted rafters turned into broken wood and ruins; and the flickering red candlelight became clusters of cold, ghostly flames...

"This is……"

The young girl, Ah Xiu, exclaimed in surprise, glancing around at her surroundings. In the dark and eerie corridor before her, besides the large, glowing black cat and Li Musheng, there was only the maid who had led the way.

The maid, dressed in a green robe and skirt, with gold and silver hairpins, remained unchanged. However, upon hearing the voice of the young girl, Ah Xiu, she turned around and glanced at her.

The maid's eyes, which were almost devoid of emotion, flickered slightly, and she said softly:
"Luckily, the guest followed the right person; otherwise, no matter how many lives he had, it wouldn't have been enough in this White Emperor Tower."

After saying this, the maid gave Li Musheng another deep look, then turned and continued walking.

Looking at the desolate corridor before her, so different from what she had seen before, the young girl Ah Xiu was still shaken. She whispered to Li Musheng beside her and asked:
"Your Highness, did you see the true nature of this White Emperor Tower from the very beginning?"

Upon hearing this, Li Musheng shook his head and said:

"No, that's not it. What I see is the same as what you see. I'm a sucker for good looks, and I prefer things that are lively and pleasing to the eye."

With that, Li Musheng called to the big black cat and continued to follow the maid in front.

The young girl, Ah Xiu, had a slight change in expression. She looked at the gloomy and dark corridor in front of her, and could no longer see the once extremely prosperous palace.

After Li Musheng helped her see the real Baidi Tower, she could never go back!
At the same time, as Li Musheng continued along the corridor, an invisible hand silently materialized and then instantly reached out to grab at the end of the corridor.

"You inhuman creatures can't stop me."

Li Musheng's voice slowly rang out, followed by a chilling, piercing scream of pain coming from the end of the corridor.

In the eyes of the young girl Ah Xiu, a blood-red monster covered with countless eyes, noses, and ears was pulled out of the darkness at the end of the dilapidated corridor by an invisible force.

The blood-red monster struggled painfully, emitting extremely unpleasant sounds as it tried to escape, but it was utterly unable to do so.

Under that terrifying force that seemed utterly irresistible, countless eyes, noses, and ears exploded, and the monster's entire body continued to crack, gushing out gushes of bright red blood. In the end, it instantly turned into a thick cloud of blood mist, which slowly dissipated into the darkness with the monster's last painful roar.

Looking at this scene, the girl Ah Xiu could roughly guess that the sudden bleeding from her seven orifices was likely caused by this blood-red monster.

After Li Musheng helped her see through the truth, she was able to look directly at the monster's true form.

But just then, the young girl Ah Xiu suddenly exclaimed in surprise, saying:
"Watch out!" After the crimson monster was crushed into a bloody mist, a cluster of crimson runes, resembling countless intertwined chains, erupted in the dark space where it had vanished.

The crimson incantation instantly pierced the air in the corridor before him, covering a distance of several dozen feet in the blink of an eye, and appeared directly in front of Li Musheng's forehead, about to burrow into his head the next moment.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye; almost the instant the girl Ah Xiu spoke, the blood-red incantation was already in front of Li Musheng.

However, Li Musheng remained calm, letting the blood-red incantation drill towards his forehead, only glancing up at it out of the corner of his eye.

The blood-red incantation was blocked by an invisible barrier, making it impossible for it to advance even an inch.

At this moment, Li Musheng raised his hand and grabbed the blood-red incantation that emitted bursts of crimson light like chains.

The crimson incantations connected to the dark void at the end of the corridor, containing a strange and chilling power that eroded the surrounding air, causing crimson incantations that gradually solidified in the space around Li Musheng.

However, no matter what these blood-red incantations did, they could not penetrate Li Musheng's body even slightly.

The maid in front turned around again as usual, about to speak, when she saw a fleeting glint of cold light flash in Li Musheng's eyes. She then frowned and said:

"They really don't learn their lesson."

The moment Li Musheng finished speaking, both the young girl Axiu and the maid in front of her could clearly feel that the entire White Emperor Tower where they were located suddenly began to shake violently.

In the girl Ah Xiu's sight, the broken walls and ruins of the buildings began to peel away one after another, the rotten floorboards under her feet creaked and cracked, and the eerie flames floating in mid-air were almost extinguished as if blown by a strong wind.

For the first time, the maid's expression changed, and her eyes were fixed on Li Musheng.

But then Li Musheng grabbed the blood-red incantation and pulled it casually. The blood-red incantation, which had been piercing through the darkness at the end of the corridor, emitted a sound like the roar of a demon.

The entire blood-red incantation chain taut instantly, as if it had endured the most extreme force it could withstand, almost collapsing and breaking.

Meanwhile, at the other end of the crimson incantation, a golden-armored figure sitting cross-legged in the shadows of the void suddenly opened its eyes, its empty eyes blazing with a dazzling golden light like the rising sun.

Then, the golden-armored figure looked down at his left hand, where his entire arm, covered in golden armor, was wrapped in crimson runes that resembled burning flames.

However, the crimson incantation was flickering and seemed about to go out at any moment.

The next moment, an extremely powerful force emanated from the crimson incantation, directly pulling the golden-armored figure, who had been bowing his head, up from his seated position, as if to drag him somewhere.

"court death!"

The figure in golden armor let out a cold snort, and his entire body shone with a brilliant golden light. The crimson runes on his left hand seemed to be infused with kindling, suddenly bursting forth with an even more dazzling crimson flame. (End of Chapter)
