The woman in red possessed the life force of another world, so she could naturally see the existence of this power of nothingness.
However, since she also possesses Gu Qici's life essence, this power of nothingness will also cause her some harm. But compared to Gu Qici, who has no power to fight back, she will definitely have an easier time.
This is the difference between people, and the difference between lives.
"Hmph! The power of emptiness? It seems that no matter which world it is, the cultivation system is pretty much the same! But even so, there are still some differences in power..." Gu Qici stared at the woman in white, her eyes flashing red light, and murmured.
From her words, it's clear that she doesn't seem worried about the white-clad woman's attack, or perhaps she has a way to defend against it.
Of course, given the current situation, that is indeed the case.
"I'll just have to use the magic I learned in this world and see if it works!" she murmured as she finally took action.
Originally, being from another world, she looked down on those spells, but as time went by, she got bored and started to study them a little. She never expected them to come in handy now.
"Nine Bone Reincarnation Technique!" Gu Qici murmured, and then the cold aura around her body, under her control, rapidly soared into the sky, gradually becoming thicker, like forming a very large deep blue cloud.
In the blink of an eye, nine white bones materialized from the deep blue clouds. These bones were not large and were not much different from ordinary people's shin bones. However, after they came out, they were infected by the cold air and turned into deep blue bones.
They were lined up in a row, surrounded by a chilling aura, and floated slowly in the air like nine sharp arrows ready to be released. It seemed that as long as Gu Qici had a thought, they could launch an attack and generate tremendous power.
Just then, the woman in white finally finished gathering her power. Her eyes flashed, she murmured, and then the power of nothingness above her, like a giant mountain, swiftly pressed down on Gu Qici. Judging from the situation, she probably wanted to crush Gu Qici to death.
Unfortunately for her, Gu Qici wouldn't let her have her way. With a wicked smile, she stretched out her left hand, which had been restored by the cold energy, and pointed fiercely in the direction where the woman in white was!
With this finger strike, the nine deep blue bones trembled slightly, and then, without any surprise, they all rushed towards the woman in white. In just a moment, the sound of air being torn apart was incessant, and the space in the places they passed through was strangely distorted, showing that the power of this move should not be underestimated.
Surprisingly, she didn't use this move to stop the white-clad woman's attack of nothingness, but instead used it all to counterattack, as if she really didn't care about nothingness.
Upon seeing this, the woman in white was suddenly puzzled and even a little surprised. If this "Gu Qici" in front of her had used magic to resist, dodge, or directly defeat her power of nothingness, she could accept it to some extent, since the other party had taken her attack seriously. But "Gu Qici's" reckless counterattack, disregarding his own safety, really puzzled her.
But despite her thoughts, she couldn't simply let those nine bones attack her. So, in the next instant, she suppressed her thoughts and used her Transcendental Power to create an invisible spherical barrier, enveloping herself within it.
Suddenly, the nine bones approached the spherical barrier, and the attack of the power of nothingness previously unleashed by the woman in white was about to make intimate contact with Gu Qici. Although this whole process seemed long, in reality, from the moment the woman in white made her move to the moment Gu Qici counterattacked, it was only a short breath.
But at that moment, something strange happened right before the white-clad woman's eyes. Eight of the nine bones that were originally close to her disappeared without a trace, leaving only the middle one still surging forward!
"What?!" The woman in white's expression changed drastically, her mind seemingly unable to process what was happening.
But this was only the beginning. In the blink of an eye, the only bone suddenly began to grow larger, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a human shape. Upon closer inspection, one could see that this person was none other than Gu Qici!
At this moment, Gu Qici's smile remained, causing the woman in white to open her eyes wide and subconsciously look at the other "Gu Qici" in front of her. But this glance revealed that the "Gu Qici" was no longer there, but had turned into eight bones.
Only then did she understand why Gu Qici hadn't paid any attention to her weightless attack. Why was Gu Qici so confident? It turned out that Gu Qici had already planned to switch positions with the nine bones attacking her at this last moment, so her weightless attack couldn't reach Gu Qici at all, so why should she worry?
"No! You're wrong!" As if knowing what the woman in white was thinking, Gu Qici, who was close to her, suddenly said, "It's not that I swapped places with those nine bones, but that I became those nine bones, and those nine bones became me. Because this Nine Bone Reincarnation Technique isn't an offensive spell..."
Gu Qici was right. The Nine Bone Reincarnation Technique was indeed not an offensive technique, but an alternative reincarnation technique. Simply put, the user of this technique could use their own power to house their consciousness and soul in one of the nine transformed bones, while the remaining eight bones could become the user's original body.
This is a kind of reincarnation. Gu Qici let the only remaining bone be reincarnated into herself, making her body into eight bones. Doing this has great benefits, namely, it restores all of Gu Qici's injuries, including her broken hands and feet, as if she has regained a body, no longer an illusory cold aura.
However, this technique is a one-time use spell. Once it is used, it cannot be used again. This means that it is a life-saving technique. I didn't expect that Gu Qici would use it so casually. But judging from Gu Qici's appearance, she didn't seem to regret it.
But there's really nothing to regret, because this "Gu Qici" had already sensed that Gu Qici's body had reached its limit after so many battles. Even if the cold energy secretly restored her, it was only a temporary fix. If she wanted to continue fighting the woman in white, she could only restore her body to its original state. Otherwise, no matter how strong she was, her body would not be able to handle it and would eventually drag her down and cause her to lose.
"Gu Qici, Gu Qici! This Nine Bone Reincarnation Technique is derived from the Nine Lives..." Without further thought, Gu Qici immediately extended her left hand towards the white-clad woman within the invisible sphere.
"Do you know that nowadays, your opportunities are really few and far between?"
Perhaps sensing the thoughts of the woman in red, Gu Qici in her own world of consciousness also felt a stirring in her heart, unconsciously frowning. After a moment, her eyes flashed, and she suddenly said firmly to herself, "Whether it was a momentary impulse or some other reason, I know that my choice... is right!"
The woman in red, lost in her confusion, perhaps to maintain her hatred for Gu Qici, or for some other reason, ultimately attributed it all to Gu Qici's weakness and hypocrisy. That's why she spoke instinctively to Gu Qici, why she felt that Gu Qici's blade was still sheathed, and why she believed that Gu Qici couldn't cut anyone.
Even so, now that she has almost become one with him, while pursuing freedom, she has also been subtly changed by Gu Qici's consciousness in some ways, though she herself is unaware of it.
Of course, that's all for later; right now, the focus is on the battle between Gu Qici and the woman in white.
In the blink of an eye, the eight bones floating in the air were completely reduced to nothingness by the invisible power of the woman in white. But that didn't matter, because at this moment, the most important thing for Gu Qici was to seize the opportunity in front of him and completely defeat the woman in white!
Gu Qici's left hand was surrounded by cold air. Just like when she first appeared, she reached out her left hand directly towards the heart of the woman in white. This action terrified the woman in white, filling her heart with deep fear.
However, Gu Qici's appearance was too sudden, so the woman in white had no time to defend against Gu Qici's attack. At most, she could only rely on the spherical barrier in front of her to block it, but unfortunately, the spherical barrier did not have such an ability.
With the power of Taiyin, Gu Qici, who could use cold energy, had no fear of this power of nothingness. Almost instantly, her hand pierced through the spherical barrier, then slowly touched the woman's white clothes, touched the woman's skin, and finally her entire hand pierced the skin, touching the woman's heart.
Chapter 148 The Question Isn't About You
At that moment, the woman in white opened her eyes wide. The icy coldness emanating from Gu Qici's hands immediately spread throughout her entire body, and a feeling of being infinitely close to death appeared in her eyes.
"Mirror...reflect!" Gu Qici murmured, and with her voice, the Taiyin power in her body immediately surged wildly into the white-clothed woman's body through her left hand, causing the white-clothed woman's entire body to be engulfed in deep blue energy, which was extremely terrifying.
Perhaps influenced by the power of the Taiyin, the woman's appearance underwent the expected change. Her hair turned dark blue, her eyes turned dark blue, and even her clothes turned dark blue. Just like when Gu Qici first activated the power of the Taiyin, causing changes in her body, this woman was the same. However, the difference was that Gu Qici's vitality was growing stronger and stronger within that dark blue, while this woman's vitality was growing weaker and weaker. Presumably, this woman would perish completely soon.
"How could this be? I actually... I actually died here..." Bound by the power of Taiyin, the woman could not move, only her consciousness was functioning. She looked at Gu Qici, who was smiling evilly in front of her, her eyes flickering, as if a strong sense of unwillingness was gradually brewing.
But what good is it? At this moment, Gu Qici is far stronger than her, otherwise she would not have been defeated so thoroughly. In this battle, Gu Qici basically did not use spiritual power, but used Taiyin power. It can be seen that Taiyin power is indeed superior to spiritual power, and even spiritual power and Dao power. This is what true strength is.
"The power of another world..." Gu Qici in the world of consciousness was not happy because the woman in red defeated the woman in white. Instead, she had a very scary thought without realizing it. Perhaps because of this, she felt a strange sense of crisis.
However, after the white-clad woman's life force had dissipated by half, this "Gu Qici" suddenly stopped the influx of Yin energy, which puzzled both the white-clad woman and Gu Qici.
However, soon after, this "Gu Qici" smirked and whispered to the woman in white, "Don't worry! I don't want to kill you yet. You're lucky to have caught my eye, so I'll trouble you to be my slave from now on! Remember to protect me well!"
"What?!" The woman in white exclaimed in shock, her eyes narrowing sharply.
"Slave?" Gu Qici seemed to understand something.
At this moment, Gu Qici's eyes suddenly flashed with a sharp light, and he shouted in a low voice, "Imperial Demonic Nether Law! Reverse Memories!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she decisively took out her left hand, which was stuck in the woman's heart, and then gently touched her forehead without hesitation!
As she moved, bursts of white light suddenly appeared from her hands, surging towards the white-clad woman's mind. In just an instant, the white-clad woman's beautiful face was distorted.
"Ahhh!" The woman in white suddenly panicked. She felt as if her memories were being torn apart, and she was in great pain. However, she could do nothing. Because of the power of the Yin, she could not even move, which made her extremely desperate.
"Don't panic, don't be flustered, it will be over soon... very soon!" As Gu Qici finished speaking, more white light rushed into the mind of the woman in white, causing her mind to tremble unconsciously.
Perhaps so, her memories seem to be undergoing some kind of change...
One hot summer day, in an academy, a teacher was wrongly accused of stealing the most precious treasure of her students' clan. She was severely injured by the clan leader. Just when she was feeling disheartened, a woman in a gray robe appeared. She successfully cleared her name and gave the person who hurt her a good beating.
After doing all this, he only said one sentence to her: "Remember! My name is Gu Qici."
This puzzled the woman greatly, but since the man came and went so quickly, her doubts were of no use. She simply murmured the name to herself a few times.
On a cold winter day, on a street, she, who had resigned from her teaching position, offended the academy and was secretly attacked. Now, she was seriously injured and could only wait to die. However, as she lay dying, the gray-robed figure reappeared. She killed all those who had wronged her and even led her to raze the academy to the ground.
Just like last time, after helping her, the woman only said one sentence, but this time it was a little different: "Remember! As long as I am here, you are here; without me, you are not here!"
Perhaps deeply influenced, this time the woman stopped repeating the name and instead engraved it in her heart. Although she didn't know who this person was or why he helped her, she felt that none of that mattered anymore.
In a warm spring, in a mountain range, she had been in seclusion for a hundred years and finally succeeded in comprehending the power of nothingness on the continent. Not long after, she finally began to break through to the Transcendent Realm. However, the difficulty of breaking through to the Transcendent Realm was greater and more terrifying than she had imagined. So after a long time, she was still in dire straits.
However, at the most crucial moment, the gray-robed woman mysteriously appeared beside her. She gave her great encouragement and helped her reach the Transcendent Realm. After that, the gray-robed woman left her as always.
"You are mine, and only I am allowed in your life... My name is..."
"Gu Qici..." The last two words were spoken by the woman in white. This was the first time she had called out this name. However, after she said it, a smile suddenly appeared on her lips, and her eyes were filled with the image of Gu Qici.
"Only you, I am yours, my life is only you..." the woman in white murmured. Outside of memory, the woman in white said the same thing, which was very strange and very surprising.
But this memory is not over yet...
In the autumn when leaves fall slowly, in a bamboo grove, in a bamboo house, a woman in white sits cross-legged inside.
Her cultivation had reached the mid-stage of the Transcendent Realm, and she had gained a great reputation in the Demon Emperor Domain. However, at the height of her fame, she chose to retire and refused all offers of opportunities to her, including the sect leader of the Demon Emperor Sect and the sect leader of the Demon Extermination Sect. Many people asked her why, but she only gave one answer.
"I'm waiting for someone. I won't leave until she comes."
No one knows who "she" is, and she doesn't care whether others know or not. She just wants to wait for her, she just wants to see her, and with this strong belief, even if a year, five years, ten years, a hundred years have passed... she has not left this place.
It wasn't until the year 521 that the gray robe she had etched in her heart finally appeared before her eyes, and she still remembered its name, its name was... Gu Qici.
Gu Qici gave her a dark blue dress and said to her, "Wear this dress, and you will be mine."
Without hesitation, the woman in white took off her white robe in front of Gu Qici, revealing her delicate, snow-white body. However, she didn't seem to care at all, and simply put on the dark blue robe. Perhaps in her heart, she already belonged to Gu Qici.
“From today onwards, your name is Lan Yue… Let’s go! I need your help.” Gu Qici walked to Lan Yue’s side and slowly extended her left hand.
Lan Yue smiled slightly and, without hesitation, placed her right hand on Gu Qici's left hand. As soon as they touched, her hair and eyes gradually turned deep blue, just like the appearance outside her world of memories.
Just when everything was about to end, a powerful voice suddenly resounded in everyone's hearts.
"Let her go!!" These three simple words seemed to contain immense power, like a thunderbolt from a clear sky, directly pulling the two from their world of memories back to the real world!
Upon realizing what was happening, Gu Qici felt a sudden sense of crisis welling up inside her. This caused her to narrow her eyes and instinctively take a quick step back, moving about twenty meters away. However, just as she left, a cold-faced man in black robes appeared in her original spot.
As soon as this person appeared, he immediately hugged the woman in dark blue beside him, then frowned and looked at Gu Qici in front of him.
Feeling the other person's sharp gaze, Gu Qici shuddered. A feeling as if she were surrounded by ice immediately surfaced in her mind, making her realize one thing: this person was stronger than everyone Gu Qici had encountered before, and this strength was not ordinary strength, but strength on a different level.
"It seems... you are the leader among the three," the man in black robes said indifferently.
Gu Qici merely stared cautiously at the man in black robes, seemingly sizing him up, without saying a word. Although this guy was strong, he was definitely not to the point of looking down on everyone on the continent. For example, cultivators at the Heavenly Monarch level, or those whose cultivation was close to that of the Heavenly Monarch, all of whom she needed to take seriously.
Seeing that Gu Qici did not reply, the man in black robes paused for a moment and then said, "Name."
Upon hearing the question, Gu Qici pondered for a moment, but this time she did not remain silent. Instead, she replied softly, "Gu Qici."
"Gu Qici?" the man in black robes murmured, then asked, "What is your purpose in coming to my Demon Extermination Sect?"
"Heh!" Gu Qici chuckled and replied, "I seem to remember answering this question before."
“Indeed, but I’m not asking about her, I’m asking about you, your purpose.” The man in black robes said meaningfully, but her meaning was also very clear: she had seen through Gu Qici at this moment, and that she was not the Gu Qici from before.
"Oh?" Seemingly understanding something from the black-robed man's words, Gu Qici paused before saying, "So, you've been here for a while now? If that's the case, then why..."
"Answer my question..." Before Gu Qici could finish speaking, the man in black robes interrupted, "If your answer pleases me, I will spare your life. If you spout nonsense, I will make you know what pain is!"
Upon hearing these highly threatening words, Gu Qici's eyes flickered, and she suddenly burst into laughter: "Hahahaha! Let me know what pain is! Alright! Then stop with the nonsense and come on!"
Upon hearing this, the atmosphere between the two immediately plummeted, as if a bloody storm was about to unfold!
Chapter 149 Go and complete it yourself
The ordinary cultivators were unaware that something significant, enough to impact the entire continent, was about to happen.
The source of this incident was a woman named Gu Qici in the Demon Emperor's Domain, Demon Emperor Island, and Demon Extermination Sect on that day. However, the details of this incident had to be traced back to half an hour earlier.
After Gu Qici uttered those words that were clearly mocking the man in black robes, the man in black robes finally lost his patience. He frowned, moved swiftly, and in an instant, he and the woman in white appeared behind Gu Qici. Then, he used his free left hand to grab Gu Qici's neck.
This action was quite similar to Gu Qici's previous actions, but the pressure it exerted was very different. Gu Qici could clearly feel that if he grabbed her, she would never be able to break free.
Fortunately, Gu Qici had been on guard against the man in black robes, so she wasn't entirely without a chance to dodge. With a cold snort and a slightly serious expression, the power of Taiyin erupted once more, causing her physical functions to surge. She then quickly shifted to the left, narrowly avoiding the man in black robes' left hand.
