Simulated immortality allows me to calculate talent stats.

The emperor's fury shook the world, leaving all living beings terrified.

[Inside the Taiyuan Palace, Emperor Xuanwu let out a soft, indescribable hum.]

That was a meaning of extreme complexity.

[Even the domineering young Taoist disciple felt instinctively terrified and fearful.]

[It seems they encountered a pervert.]

The soft humming sounds overlapped, indescribable, and unpredictable.

[Amidst the supreme wrath and fury, there was a subtle blend of pleasure and enjoyment.]

The third senior brother's jade-like eyes blazed with lightning, his expression one of resistance.

If it weren't for my unwavering determination to protect you, I probably would have already fled according to the rules of the regime.

You have instigated disobedience and misfortune, and are now directly confronting imperial power.

[They are the ones who perceive the changes most clearly.]

A chill ran down his spine.

[This chilling and nauseating discomfort has ended.]

[By breaking through the black passage torn open by rebellion and misfortune, the seal was breached.]

Emperor Xuanwu wanted to stop him, but was affected by that subtle sensation and hesitated for a moment.

[By the time you could endure it, it was too late.]

[Your flowing black robe gives you an ethereal, otherworldly air.]

[Suspended and standing still amidst the throngs of celestial beings.]

Yin Chu sensed the ethereal presence that had suddenly appeared beside him, and was so frightened that his whole body went cold and his heart pounded.

[After realizing it was you.]

[He reacted with lightning speed, shouting: "Hear my command! Protect the Imperial Envoy!!!"]

[A solemn and authoritative voice relayed the order.]

[Suddenly, several fierce auras emerged from the capital, forming a formidable array.]

These are the accumulated strength and resources of the Great Cang royal family over many years.

Even celestial beings who venture into this place will face certain death.

[As a result, it's now used to protect you, someone who was not long ago a mortal enemy.]

[This broke through the restrictions imposed by imperial power.]

[Various celestial phenomena unfold around you, revealing the path to enlightenment. The combined power of celestial beings and the royal family protects you.]

And what you feel in your heart.

[Looking towards Taiyuan Hall.]

[Emperor Xuanwu, disguised as a calamity, lured you into the palace, causing the plan to destroy Taiyuan to fail.]

There was no resentment or fury, but rather a chillingly cold silence.

Your gaze sweeps over Wei Zhi.

No need to ask; seeing the clear look in her eyes as she gazes at you, you already know.

[Protection from imperial decree...]

[It was taken back by Emperor Xuanwu.]

An invisible sense of oppression, a subtle pervasive feeling, yet it makes you feel as if you're sinking into the deep sea, gradually fading into darkness and suffocation.

[Cause and effect, and the predetermined fate.]

[May it descend upon you.]

That points to the end.

The calamity... has arrived...

You looked calmly up at the sky.

There were no earth-shattering phenomena, no overwhelming power, and no overwhelming, annihilating killing intent.

[Only that suffocating feeling, lingering in my heart, refusing to leave, gradually gripping my throat.]

Unfathomable, its origin unknown, and inescapable.

[You've fallen into a helpless state of isolation, and your voice has fallen silent.]

[The rest of the time, we listen to the coming of death.]

[Beside you stands Yin Chu, who just shouted for protection.]

To my horror, I discovered that your presence seemed to have been stripped from the world.

[It has lost its color, leaving only a fading black and white.]

The shrewdness cultivated over a long period of time.

[This prompted him to react as decisively as before.]

"Retreat! Retreat! Obey Heaven's will! Aid the slaughter!!"

[For an unknown period of time, I haven't felt that terrifying threat again.]

Yin Chu felt his reaction was a moment too slow.

[I fear they will all, like you, be stripped of their color and meet their end.]

Wei Zhi, who held imperial decrees, was the first to discover that Emperor Xuanwu had revoked them.

[When our eyes met, we understood each other.]

We haven't had time to come up with any solutions yet.

The calamity has already arrived, and it cannot be reversed by willpower alone.

[Lü Zhen and Pang Hai witnessed you lose your vitality and color, leaving only black and white, a figure that rejects the world.]

The two remained calm and composed.

[It has become clear that, given the overall situation, it is a predetermined fate, a deadly predicament.]

[Let them be blessed with unparalleled talent and almost supernatural wisdom.]

They were powerless to resist.

[Let's review this brief yet incredibly long game.]

The same thought crossed their minds.

To truly possess the power to contend with the heavens and earth, the only way is to seize power!

[Because their battle in the central courtyard appeared to be fierce and earth-shattering.]

In reality, it's all just a game of strategy amidst the chaos and the bigger picture.

[It has no direct impact on the outcome of the impending calamity.]

[What truly delays the arrival of the killing.]

There were only two of them.

[That peerless being among men, and that emperor among men.]

Coincidentally, the former wielded the power of thunder, while the latter held imperial power.

[They all used their authority to stop the killings.]

Lü Zhen and Pang Hai remained calm and composed.

[We couldn't see the possibility of winning this time, but we saw the future of victory.]

[Seize power!]

This obsession has taken deep root in their hearts.

Gong Si's bright eyes gazed intently at your black and white figure, stripped of its existence.

Is this a dead end? Surely it's finally a dead end this time? Are there any unforeseen changes?

She is no longer afraid of getting involved.

[But rather, I'm afraid I'll enter the wrong time.]

[I repeatedly thought the time, as my master had said, had arrived.]

You always manage to snatch a glimmer of hope.

Now that the calamity has arrived, do you still have a backup plan?

Gong Si was gradually overwhelmed by confusion.

A wistful murmur escaped her lips: "Master...why did you put Xiao Gongsi in such danger..."

[A tranquil, snow-covered mountain forest, a region existing between existence and nothingness.]

A chubby black cat is standing on all fours.

Its eerie green eyes glowed with an unsettling light; its fur stood on end, and it bared its teeth.

"Meow! A massacre is coming! I'm going to help my big brother!"

Just as it was about to transform into a flying black cat.

A hand, white as jade, pressed its head down, burying its plump body in the snow.

[The black cat, Xu Kun, bared its teeth and claws, struggling violently.]

[They've already disregarded everything else.]

Witnessing your back, stripped of its presence, devoid of any vitality.

It cannot stand idly by!

"Meow! You little light bulb! If you stop me again! Don't blame me for getting rude!!"

[Sharp claws and teeth, as the struggle continued.]

[Scarlet marks were left on Yu Ci's hands.]

She still didn't let go, her eyes closed, her face a blur of reflections.

Holding the divination stick, he still extended a single white jade finger.

"Meow! Besides pointing your finger, can you do anything else?"

[Xu Kun, the black cat, stopped resisting.]

[Angry and helpless.]

The mysterious and unpredictable nature of its inner demons made it clear that Yu Ci was doing the right thing.

But to expect it to completely stand by and watch is truly putting the fat cat in a difficult position.

"I saw it..."

A clear, cool voice rang out.

[Xu Kun, the black cat, looked at her.]

Yu Ci opened her eyes, gazing westward. Her transparent, glassy pupils seemed to hold the birth and death of an infinite future.

[Yumen Pass.]

[Above the high walls.]

"I understand..."

[A completely calm and rational voice rang out.]

[Jiang Bofu observing the compass of destiny.]

Suddenly, a chill ran down his spine, and he turned around in fright.
