From waterfowl, it began to transform into the Great Sun Golden Crow.

Chapter 60 Deciphering the Ancient Corpse Painting and Converting the River-Swallowing Fish

"Child, do you recognize this fish?"

The carcass of the River-Swallowing Fish had long since decomposed, becoming a skeletal remains that lingered in the pool of blood, constantly howling and wailing.

Gu Heting looked at the senior in front of him.

Tears welled up in her eyes.

For three months, the River Swallowing Fish was his guide on his path to immortality. From the art of water manipulation to finally encountering Lü Pingyang's grave.

Along the way, the River Swallow Fish helped him a great deal.

With a touch of sadness, he nodded in response to the Illusionary Fire Dragon.

"He is my teacher."

The Illusionary Fire Dragon breathed heavily, its strength failing. The battle with the evil cultivator Qin Wuxie had taken a heavy toll. It had brought it to its limit, leaving its wounds almost irreversible.

Even with cultivation at the late stage of Core Formation, there was no way to reverse the situation.

"I never expected that you, little waterbird, would have the teachings of a human master. How interesting. Well then, I'll help you find liberation."

""

The Fiery Dragon closed its eyes.

Gu Heting could tell that Fan Ping's injuries were very serious, and he was too weak to return to the United States.

"How can you help me? Senior, you are also seriously injured," Gu Heting asked.

"Heh," the Illusionary Fire Dragon chuckled.

Looking at the ancient corpse painting, he seemed somewhat unwilling: "I'm not reconciled to this. I've cultivated for over a thousand years, and facing a human evil cultivator, I had to cut off my tail to survive. I even spent eight years transforming into a dragon. And I'm left in this sorry state. I'm truly not reconciled."

The so-called "walking dragon" refers to the transformation of a dragon into human form.

For dragon-shaped creatures to achieve further advancement, they must become dragons.

Borrowing the power of a massive disaster.

Complete the ritual of walking on the dragon.

"Did you have some kind of destiny in the human world? Otherwise, you wouldn't be talking to me like this."

""

Hearing Gu Heting's words, the Illusionary Fire Dragon nodded.

Looking at the ancient corpse painting before him, he solemnly said, "How about this? I'll ignite myself with dragon's breath flames and then help you decipher this ancient corpse painting."

"An eye for an eye, I guess. You saved me, so I'll repay this kindness, how about it?"

Gu Heting looked at the illusory fire dragon.

He didn't consider himself to have a deep relationship with this Illusionary Fire Dragon. He had only fed it about 20 pills. Yet he had gone to such lengths for it.

But the mournful cries of the river-swallowing fish made him unable to bear it.

Seeing this, Gu Heting had no choice but to nod.

"Can."

"Alright." The Illusionary Fire Dragon spread its wings, which were over 10 meters long. It flew into the sky and ignited itself.

There was something the Illusionary Fire Dragon didn't tell Gu Heting.

His injuries were too severe, and he didn't have much time left. This move, however, ignited the flame of his life.

"Kid, I saw this magic weapon during the Demon Suppression War."

"This thing can turn unsolvable objects into corpses. It was made from human skin by a cultivator who had reached the Immortal Realm."

"It is now a sacred object of the Blood Demon Sect."

""

"Kid, do you see that eye?"

'

Hearing the words of the Illusionary Fire Dragon, Gu Heting activated his spiritual vision. Upon gazing upon it, he saw an eye hovering above the Ancient Corpse Painting. That eye moved erratically, seemingly looking down upon the hellish world of mortals.

"I'll tell you."

"Attack that eye. This ancient corpse painting has a defense; it will involuntarily resist all attacks."

""

"I'll buy you some time."

"The Illusionary Fire Dragon spoke. It had just opened its massive, fanged maw, continuously spewing forth dragon breath flames. Those flames had just struck the Eternal Corpse at that very moment."

The world changed color instantly.

The pool of blood on the ground began to churn. The River-Swallowing Fish, retaining memories of its past life, actually used water magic to attack the Illusionary Fire Dragon.

A jet of blood gushed out from the water.

Seeing the water dragon attack it, the phantom fire dragon roared a powerful dragon's cry, which shattered the water dragon into pieces.

That ancient corpse painting seemed to have gained some intelligence.

Gu Heting had never seen such a magical artifact before. It seemed to have its own built-in defensive mechanism.

Moreover, it was incredibly sinister.

Suddenly, countless skeletal corpses erupted from the Eternal Corpse Painting. Those countless skeletal corpses were like a raging, towering wave.

A surge of water erupted and splashed onto the wings of the Illusionary Fire Dragon.

Countless corpses were gnawing at his flesh.

The Fiery Dragon let out a mournful cry and ignited itself. It then charged madly towards the Ancient Corpse Painting.

"Your turn, little waterbird. Why don't you find a chance to attack that eye?"

Gu Heting then realized what was happening.

He spread his small wings, revealing a scene of madness. Two fire serpents coiled between his wings. The coiled fire serpents leaped up with him as he flapped his wings.

The two snakes emerged from their hole and charged straight at the eye.

Gu Heting vowed that this was the most unforgettable moment of his life.

The sinister eye, which had been fixed on the Illusionary Fire Dragon, suddenly shifted its gaze to Gu Heting. Blood tears streamed from those eyes as it stared intently at Gu Heting.

The scene was absolutely bizarre.

Gu Heting's heart trembled.

In an instant, he felt his spiritual power was extremely insignificant. A sudden, overwhelming pressure from the immortals was making it hard for him to breathe.

That was an instinctive fear etched into the body.

"Stay sensible, little waterbird."

"Do you really want to get rid of your teacher?"

The words of the Illusionary Fire Dragon awakened the little water bird. Gu Heting instantly snapped back to reality. His eyes met those of the evil eye.

Now, Gu Heting's eyes are filled with nothing but anger.

He imitated the Illusionary Fire Dragon, igniting himself with two tongues of fire.

The flames stung his entire body, offering respite from the maddening gaze. The pain lessened, the oppressive force lessened. He hurtled towards that eye like a cannonball.

The moment it hit the eyes.

The sinister eye was bleeding profusely. It blinked incessantly, seemingly in great pain at the moment of impact.

Gu Heting felt as if he heard a mournful cry.

That was the back of the magical artifact, the "Eternal Corpse Painting." Countless vengeful spirits were fused within it. The spirits inside were constantly tearing and screaming.

The moment that eye was attacked, countless wronged souls soared into the sky. They transformed into morning stars, gradually dissipating. Among them were the elderly, children, and cultivators dressed in various sect robes.

These people have crossed the river of history and are now permanently sealed away.

At this moment, the wronged souls inside were released.

The Eternal Corpse Painting collapsed in an instant. Gu Heting's move shattered that evil eye. His body was extremely weak, and he fell straight down.

As he fell, he looked at the river-swallowing fish in front of him.

Above the swallowing fish, a wisp of soul floats.

Whale Li's soul soared into the sky, mingling with the sun. He watched as the little water bird before him laughed blankly.

That smile was as if he were looking at a promising junior.

"Gu Heting, Gu Heting."

""

Why do you, little waterbird, bother?

""

Whale's soul floated up into the sky and transformed into countless stars.

As Gu Heting fell, his eyes were filled with tears, but he responded with a smile.
