They won the Holy Grail War, but this turned out to be the Virtual Tree Universe.

Chapter 203 Mirror Flow: "Be gentle, I want to leave behind beautiful memories."

Dan Lei wasn't surprised to see Jing Liu stand up; he hadn't even used his full strength yet, so how could she possibly fall down so easily?

As Dan Lei slowly descended, the Red Dust Sword Box opened again, and the purple Immortal Execution Sword shot out.

However, after seeing that Dan Lei also possessed a top-tier flying sword, Jing Liu suddenly spoke up.
"There's still one left, how enviable."

After saying that, she once again conjured an ice sword in her hand, preparing to fight again.

However, from her words just now, Dan Lei heard a hint of clarity, and it seemed that Jing Liu had already withdrawn from the demonic body.

At least it has exited the berserk state of the demonic body.

So Dan Lei immediately released the remaining two immortal swords at the same time. The four immortal swords, Zhu, Lu, Jue, and Xian, spun around him, and he laughed.
“Senior Jingliu, I don’t just have two immortal swords, I have four.”

Jing Liu was a little dumbfounded at this moment, saying that in his nearly two thousand years of life, he had seen many wealthy families, but only one as wealthy as Dan Lei's.

This is actually easy to understand. Even though in the game, the main characters can encounter messengers everywhere they go, except for Arillo VI, who is the true starting village.

However, from the perspective of the Milky Way, even the term "rare as phoenix feathers" cannot describe such a thing.

Moreover, many messengers do not leave behind any usable materials after they die. For example, Shuhu only leaves behind a few pieces of flesh, which are unusable.

That's why the remains of Skarakkabaz and high-level bugs are so valuable.

The remains of Zhu Luo are extremely rare and hard to come by.

It can be said that even Huai Yan, among the weapons he collects, has at most one or two that are on par with Dan Lei's Four Swords of Immortal Execution.

The materials used to create the Fragmented Sword by Ying Xing made it impossible for it to be compared with the Four Swords of Zhuxian.

So, after venting his anger, Jingliu, whose mind had cleared up, stopped struggling.

He put down his sword, looking ready to surrender.

Jingliu said that he didn't come to Luofu to risk his life. Besides, he originally planned to surrender himself after returning. The other side had four top-level immortal swords and their strength was not weak. What's the point of fighting?

Seeing that Jing Liu had lost all will to fight, Dan Lei knew she had guessed correctly. After venting her anger, she was able to control the Demon Yin Body for the time being.

So Danlei proceeded according to the pre-planned procedure.

"Senior Jingliu, are you aware of the troubles that Luofu is currently facing?"

Although Jing Liu found it strange that Dan Lei suddenly brought up this question, he still answered very briefly.

"Star Core Invasion, Annihilation of the Great Sovereign."

Dan Lei nodded, then asked again.
"Based on the information you have, how many Extinction Lords have come to Luofu?"

At this moment, Jingliu realized something was wrong, so he asked in return...

"One? If there were multiples, would Luofu still exist today?"

In response to this question, Dan Lei simply raised his hand and showed three, then said...
"Unfortunately, based on the information we have so far, it is possible that three Annihilation Lords have arrived in Luofu this time."

After saying this, Dan Lei copied the relevant memories, pushed them into Jing Liu, and continued speaking.

"The whole process is too complicated to explain, just look at it yourself."

Jingliu had clearly been out of touch with galactic society for too long, so she was very unfamiliar with Danlei. Seeing that Danlei could still copy memories, she immediately complained...
"And the ability of the Memory Master... Your knowledge is too eclectic. If you want to improve further in the future, you need to refine your abilities."

Despite saying that, Jingliu still pressed the memory into his forehead.

A minute or two later, Jing Liu looked at Dan Lei seriously and asked...
"I know the whole story. Now, tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Seeing that Jingliu had taken the initiative to ask a question, Dan Lei naturally followed suit.
"Now Luofu needs to unite all available forces, regardless of their original identities, as long as they can help, we need to strive for them."

Because under the threat of destruction, there is no difference between criminals and civilians; they will destroy everything equally.

Therefore, I have been ordered by the general to come and guide you back to the Cloud Cavalry.

Dan Lei had just given Jing Liu a memory containing his conversation with Jing Yuan, so Jing Liu didn't question its authenticity.

But Jingliu still spoke coldly.
"That's not right. I am suffering from demonic energy. Although I vented my anger after the battle with you, I can suppress it now."

But once on the battlefield, in the heat of battle, a rogue's rampage would inevitably lead to an inability to distinguish friend from foe, which would be detrimental to the battlefield.

Seeing that Jingliu had taken the initiative to shift the question to Moyin, Danlei laughed directly.

"Senior, there's no need to worry about this. My memory ability can suppress the berserk rampage of the demonic body. It should be able to suppress it for at least ten days."

That is, you need to open your memories to me.

Don't worry, I won't rummage through your memories. I'll only help you clarify them and suppress those that cause you pain and confusion.

Jingliu truly lives up to his reputation as the former leader of the Luofu Sword Sect; he is decisive and ruthless in his actions.

She didn't ask Danlei how he could guarantee that her memories wouldn't be read by him.

Instead, they chose to trust directly because Luofu's current situation did not allow for internal strife.

So, Jing Liu closed his eyes and said directly.

"Come on, but be gentle, I want to leave with beautiful memories."

Seeing this, Dan Lei didn't hold back and immediately attacked after retrieving the Four Swords of Zhuxian.

Then, Danlei felt as if he were immersed in a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood.

To put it more vividly, this is a sea composed of various blood-red little floaters and blood plasma. The little floaters are all in the shape of the people of Fengrao, and there is also a very small number of cloud riders.

This sea of ​​blood is the result of the killings Jingliu committed over the past 1,800 years since he began learning his skills.

Dan Lei's current task is to find Jing Liu's beautiful memories in this sea of ​​blood, retrieve these memories, elevate them to a higher place, and then use his own power to suppress this "sea of ​​blood".

This task was troublesome for Danlei, but not too difficult.

Protected by the power of memory and destiny, these little red floats cannot get close to him.

As for that sea of ​​blood, it was actually formed from memories. As long as one could endure the "bloody smell" within, there wouldn't be much of a problem.

About five minutes later, Dan Lei finished sorting through the memories of the mirror flow.

It has to be said that it's a miracle that Mirror Stream has lasted this long.

Her most cherished memories are located at the very bottom of the sea of ​​blood, and the content is very clear: all the little things she shared with Bai Heng.

As for the other five heroes of the Cloud Realm, Jing Liu even had thoughts like, "They're all stinky men trying to steal Bai Heng from me."

This includes Jingyuan, his apprentice.

No wonder Jingliu's pillar of support collapsed after Baiheng's death.

Later, Danfeng and Yingxing did what she considered to be an insult to Bai Heng's corpse.

She was even forced to kill the evil dragon that resembled Bai Heng.

All I can say is that if it weren't for the incident involving Danfeng and Yingxing, Jingliu's swordsmanship would have allowed him to survive for at least another one or two hundred years before falling victim to demonic possession.

If Bai Heng had lived, Jing Liu might have been able to hold on until now.

Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs" in reality.

After Dan Lei sorted out Jing Liu and Bai Heng's memories and raised them to the highest level, he kept his promise and withdrew from Jing Liu's memories, without going into his and Luo Sha's plans or her experiences in the years since she left Luo Fu.

However, as her memories of herself and Bai Heng became clearer, tears welled up in Jing Liu's eyes.

At this moment, a young man who had just left Liuyun Ferry, having noticed the explosion, rushed back in his Star Chariot. He then saw Dan Lei, now sporting dragon horns, "closely" clinging to the older sister he had encountered earlier amidst the ruins.

So he jumped off the star raft and said something truly shocking.
"Danlei, what are you doing here? What happened? And why did you make this older sister cry?"

Upon hearing this, Dan Lei broke out in a cold sweat, rushed to Yan Qing's side, and pulled him in front of Jing Liu, saying...
"Yanqing, you've messed up. This is your grandmaster. How could you joke about her? General Jingyuan might really spank you."

Although Yanqing and Danlei hadn't seen each other for almost thirty years, their friendship from their previous sparring session remained, so she didn't resist Danlei's pull. Instead, she asked with a surprised expression.
"What? She's my grandmaster? How come I didn't know that?"

However, no sooner had he finished speaking than Jingliu, perhaps feeling he couldn't lose face in front of the Third Hokage, his tears and tear stains vanished instantly, and he said, half-seriously, half-jokingly...

"I never spank my apprentices when I teach them."

Jingyuan wasn't doing well in his studies back then, so we switched his training to real combat, directly beating him to make him personally experience his shortcomings.

Upon hearing this, Yanqing immediately believed most of it, because Danlei wouldn't lie to her on this issue.

So Yanqing respectfully bowed, addressed him as "Grandmaster," and then asked with a puzzled expression.

"So, Grandmaster returned this time because he heard that Luofu was in trouble and came to help?"

Seeing that Yanqing was still asking this question, Danlei covered his head and said...

"Yanqing, I've heard that you don't like reading. It's all because General Jingyuan forced you to read the ancient books in the library. It seems that's true."

Although the story of Senior Jingliu has been erased from the public consciousness, it is recorded in the archives of the Shence Prefecture and the Ten Kings Division.

Never mind, Senior Jingliu is still a wanted criminal. The mess here is also the aftermath of my battle with her.

However, this is only temporary. I will take her to the Ten Kings' Division later. You should go and attend to your own business.

After Dan Lei finished speaking, he gave Jing Liu a look that indicated his cooperation, took out a rope, and tied Jing Liu's wrists on the spot.

With Jing Liu now in a state of spiritual clarity, he naturally cooperated with Dan Lei's actions.

Yanqing asked in surprise.
"What? This Flowing Cloud Ferry was destroyed like this by the aftershocks of your battle? Were you throwing Crimson Flames at each other here?"

Regarding this question, Dan Lei glanced at Yan Qing with disdain and said indifferently.

"Go out more often in the future; the aftershocks of battles between top-tier Destiny Walkers can be terrifying."

You should know that a small number of Fate Walkers have the ability to destroy a star single-handedly. When these powers collide, destroying only one Liuyun Ferry is already the result of both of us holding back.

If Fu Xuan and Yu Kong heard me say that I destroyed Liuyun Ferry in a one-on-one fight with Jing Liu, they wouldn't be surprised at all.

I won't even be convicted; at most, Skyfly will come after me demanding payment for port reconstruction.

Upon hearing this, Yan Qing fell silent for a moment, then her eyes blazed with excitement as she spoke.

"Dan Lei, in just thirty years, you've already reached the point where you can explode a star?"

Dan Lei spoke frankly about this issue.
"Actually, it could have been done when capturing Skarakabaz's spirit."

However, it was only possible to do so by borrowing the power of Skarakabaz, which can be considered as relying on external forces.

Even now, without relying on the power of the soul, I have personally reached the level of a Star-level expert, but I am still far behind your grandmaster.

"I can't beat her without using my soul power."

Danlei isn't praising Jingliu here; he's just stating the facts.

Furthermore, Dan Lei's own claim of achieving a star-level breakthrough is somewhat exaggerated; he must wield top-tier weapons like the Four Swords of Zhuxian to achieve this breakthrough.

Replacing it with [King Albion] would be a bit less impressive.

However, Yanqing was clearly a bit provoked.

It should be noted that Yan Qing was the martial arts examiner for Dan Lei's initial training pass assessment.

At that time, Danlei's strength was far inferior to Yanqing's.

Yan Qing had no idea that Dan Lei currently had at least three Star Gods who had given him special abilities.

From his perspective, Danlei had only been away for three years of training before surpassing him.

Before the Battle of Aijihazo, Danlei and Feixiao sparred, while Yanqing watched from the sidelines.

At that time, Dan Lei had not yet obtained the Skarakabaz spirit.

Then, during his second trial, he left for nearly thirty years. When he returned, Dan Lei's strength had become vastly different from his own.

Yan Qing was very clear that her destiny power was still a very, very long way from reaching the Star-level.

Jingliu keenly sensed Yanqing's emotional change.

It's often said that grandparents are more affectionate towards their grandchildren, and Jingliu is no exception, especially now that she has temporarily regained her senses.

To prevent his grand-disciple from being overly provoked, Jingliu decisively betrayed Danlei, saying this in order to divert Yanqing's attention.
"Dan Lei, you were able to explode into a star. Those four top-tier flying swords that I would envy so much that I would drool over, no, they should be called immortal swords, and they deserve a lot of credit for that."

Your own destiny power still needs to be cultivated; relying on external support is ultimately not the right path.

Only strength cultivated through one's own efforts will not betray oneself.

Upon hearing Jing Liu's words, Yan Qing, a sword fanatic, was instantly distracted. His eyes lit up, and he pulled Dan Lei aside to ask...
"A top-tier immortal sword that even my grandmaster would envy!"

"Danlei, let me see, no, let me touch, just once, just once!!"

Seeing Yan Qing's fanatical state, Dan Lei could only unleash the Trapping Immortal Sword, which had the least destructive power against him, then slapped away Yan Qing's unconsciously outstretched hand and said...

"You can only look at it, not touch it. It was made from the remains of the Great Lord of Annihilation, and it contains the power of destruction and some ethereal qualities."

If you touch it, it's easy for some parts to fall off. If it's just a little bit of flesh that falls off, that's not so bad.

If you accidentally cut your finger, even if it can be reattached, it will affect your combat effectiveness for more than ten days.

We cannot afford to lose any of our top-tier combatants now.

However, Yanqing was no longer listening to Danlei's words; all she could see was the Immortal-Trapping Sword, just like a lecherous man seeing a top-tier beauty dressed in a half-covered outfit.

It was almost ready to pounce and lick it.

To prevent his sword from actually getting covered in Yanqing's saliva, Danlei showed it to him for a while before putting it away.

So, Yanqing stared blankly at Danlei's sword case for a while before her senses returned, and she anxiously asked...
"Dan Lei, do you still have any materials to forge a flying sword? I want to buy them. You can have my salary for the next hundred years, no, a thousand years!"

Regarding this question, Dan Lei stated frankly...

"Forget it, you should save this little bit of salary for getting married in the future."

If you really want the materials, trade them for my battle merits.

I'll give Jingyuan some materials later so he can use them as currency to exchange for military merits.

　Jingliu began learning swordsmanship after the destruction of Cangcheng in the year 6300 of the Star Calendar, and it was exactly 1800 years later in 8100.

　　Jingliu was a girl during the Cangcheng period, but the growth rate of the Xianzhou people is still a mystery. There is no clear explanation in the text that the Xianzhou people grow to adulthood at the normal human growth rate and then stop growing.

　　Since Yanqing, who is supposed to be a child, is really only fourteen or fifteen years old, he will really be influenced by ideological rhetoric.

　　Starting from the age of fourteen or fifteen, Yanqing was sent to the battlefield around the age of ten, which was during peacetime.

　　Because the game's text records that in the year 8096 of the Star Calendar, during the Shence Mansion's martial arts examination, soldier Yan Qing emerged victorious and was promoted to the valiant guard. — *Shence Mansion Records*

　　Yan Qing's personal story also records that he went to the battlefield to fight beast ships when he was a Cloud Knight soldier.
