From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

Haotian remained silent, secretly pondering: "Adam, if your plan succeeds, can you defeat Jiang Liu? If not, I'll have to help the Central Continent Team fight you then, because I don't want to die!"

"Ignore the battle here, let's go find Muzan Kibutsuji."

Chu Xuan gave the order, but the instant his gaze shifted to Haotian, he adjusted his glasses, causing the lenses to reflect the faint glow of the nearby fire, obscuring his true expression...

···

Jiang Liu looked at Zhao Zhuikong, who was about to collapse, and casually shoved him aside.

In mid-air, Zhao Zhuikong regained his senses. His brain's protective mechanism made him forget most of the information he had received from that glance, but he still had a vague impression.

When he looked at Jiang Liu again, a genuine fear arose in his heart for the first time.

The other party can kill you in the blink of an eye.

terrible!

Horrible!

How terrifying!

What kind of existence is it exactly?

He attained the highest level of enlightenment, reaching the level of Great Luo...

What exactly do Taiyi and Daluo mean?

Unaware of this, Zhao Zhuikong focused his gaze on Zhao Yingkong, who was not far away, and his Sharingan transformed once again into the Nine-Tomoe Rinne Sharingan.

Since we can't kill Jiang Liu, we can only eliminate this usurping alternate personality first!

The battle resumed.

This time, however, Zhao Yingkong took a deep breath, letting the light of her soul flow through every cell of her body. Wielding the Iron Staff of Her Will, she balanced every bit of her strength against Zhao Zhuikong's during their fierce battle, aiming to minimize the damage and impact on reality.

Controlling one's strength is also a form of self-cultivation.

In the midst of continuous battles, Zhao Yingkong's aura became increasingly refined. Coupled with her mastery of the Zhou Tian transformation technique, she was able to comprehend all the changes in this world during battles. Her body cultivated nature, her mind sought battle, and the twenty-four layers of the Heavenly Tower of the Mind shone brightly. In this process, she sorted out all her past memories, comprehended the five aggregates of form, perception, feeling, volition, and consciousness, and integrated them with her five internal organs.

Bear--

When a certain point was reached, Zhao Yingkong's spiritual light - Cherry Blossom Phoenix - erupted with raging flames. However, the outer pink color disappeared, turning into a colorless state, empty and natural, yet giving people a sense of radiating a warm light.

Invisible! Inaudible! Unthinkable! Unmentionable!

Only someone like Jiang Liu, who has cultivated wisdom and forged the Dharma eye, can perceive Zhao Yingkong's changes, connect the past, inherit the future, and control the present. He has already grasped the meaning of "emptiness," but he controls it with "intention" and has not immersed himself in the realm of "emptiness."

Boom!

Zhao Yingkong had cultivated the Five Elements to form a golden elixir, her eyes blooming like lotus flowers, revealing a trace of compassion. However, the staff in her hand was like thunder. With one blow, she knocked away the vicious sword in Zhao Zhuikong's hand. Then, with a twist of her waist, she slammed the staff out, directly hitting Zhao Zhuikong's head.

With a loud "snap," Zhao Zhuikong's head turned into a cloud of blood mist, which then dissipated back into its most basic particle state.

But in that instant, a dagger appeared in Zhao Zhuikong's right hand and stabbed it into Zhao Yingkong's heart, pouring his spiritual light and will into it to completely erase Zhao Yingkong's personality!

He didn't care about his own life, but he was determined to get rid of the alter ego in front of him and let the real Zhao Yingkong return and live on.

That's all.

Chapter 1370 The Final Battle (Part 6) I don't believe you!

"Why bother?"

Inside the mind.

Zhao Zhuikong saw Zhao Yingkong, the only Zhao Yingkong, and felt all the memories in this space, as well as the fusion of the main personality and the secondary personality, and was stunned on the spot.

"You...I...It turns out, it's always been you!"

The dominant personality is Zhao Yingkong.

The alternate personality... is also Zhao Yingkong.

Now, the two personalities have simply merged into one; the primary personality is the past, and the secondary personality is the present, together they will carry on into the future.

Zhao Yingkong is no longer the girl who pretended to be strong; she has truly grown up and can stand on her own.

And what about him?

He's still that stubborn, mischievous boy.

Having figured everything out, Zhao Zhuikong smiled. His conviction slowly faded, but the light of his soul spontaneously merged into Zhao Yingkong…

···

In the world where Zhao Yingkong exists, individuals with the character "Kong" in their names, such as Zhao Yingkong and Zhao Zhuikong, are essentially genetic individuals who have returned to reality and broken through to the fourth rank of reincarnation. It's just that the Zhao family made genetic adjustments during the cloning process.

What the Zhao family didn't know was that during the "Empty" plan, every time someone died, their individual spiritual power would spontaneously merge into the surviving individuals.

nowadays.

With Zhao Zhuikong's death, the light of his soul returned to Zhao Yingkong. In addition, she had previously fully cultivated the Five Elements to form a core and comprehended the word "emptiness." The original reincarnator of the Zhao family, who had escaped from the God Space and went mad to death after breaking through the fourth level of the gene lock, appeared before Zhao Yingkong's consciousness.

"My next life?"

It was a woman whose appearance was identical to Zhao Yingkong's, but whose eyes held a mischievous glint. She circled around Zhao Yingkong, looking her up and down, and nodded in satisfaction, saying, "As expected of me, you have indeed comprehended the word 'emptiness,' hahaha!"

Seeing the original "me" with hands on hips, laughing heartily, Zhao Yingkong raised her eyebrows slightly, and with a wave of her hand, grasped the spiritual light at its core, instantly merging it into her own heart.

"What's your name?"

Watching the figure slowly fade away as it lost its spiritual light, Zhao Yingkong asked.

“Name? I hate the Zhao family. I have already abandoned the surname ‘Zhao’, returned to reality, and returned my body to the Zhao family. This is considered repaying the debt of karma. I owe them nothing… A single name, just the word ‘empty’.”

Kong didn't care about his own dissipation. He just smiled slightly and gave Zhao Yingkong a thumbs up, "My future self, congratulations on finding your true master. Keep up the good work!"

A smile also appeared on Zhao Yingkong's lips: "Let's cheer each other on."

Upon hearing this, Kong was stunned for a moment, then disappeared in joy. All the information was integrated into Zhao Yingkong's heart, making Zhao Yingkong's Golden Core Holy Embryo completely stable. Her pair of wise eyes quietly disappeared, but if you looked closely, you could see a silver lotus blooming in her pupils, reflecting the stars in the sky. No secret in the world could escape her wise eyes.

Returning to reality, Zhao Yingkong felt serene and clear-headed, observing the river's flow with discerning eyes, able to perceive her three forms—

The Dharma body is immortal, neither born nor dying, and its light shines throughout the immeasurable universe.

His body is solemn and majestic, standing twelve zhang tall, with a hawk and a python coiled on his head.

To be in harmony with nature, to be in accord with the Tao, and to achieve unity of body and mind is enlightenment.

The three bodies, all flowing like the river, seemed to be congratulating her on understanding the fundamental truth, and were gently waving to her.

Zhao Yingkong stared at him for a long time, becoming mesmerized and blushing. But she quickly snapped back to reality, took a step, crossed the void, and arrived in front of Jiang Liu. With her hands on her hips, she said irritably, "Is this how a master should act?"

"What's wrong with me?"

Jiang Liu asked with a smile.

"Are you just going to watch me fight Zhao Zhuikong?"

Zhao Yingkong questioned.

"As the ancients said, even an upright official finds it hard to settle family disputes. As your teacher, I can't interfere too much. Besides, didn't I just help you out?" Jiang Liu argued logically.

"Hmph, excuse! It was Zhao Zhuikong who wanted to kill you that made you intervene, not to help me!"

Zhao Yingkong had her own opinion. She turned her head away, pouted, and snorted coldly, giving off the impression of a little girl who was angry and couldn't be coaxed.

"How about I teach you a divine power that can transform heaven and earth?"

Really?

As soon as Jiang Liu spoke, Zhao Yingkong's angry expression vanished, her eyes lit up, and she was completely "coaxed." She hugged Jiang Liu like an octopus and said with a big laugh, "Master, you're so good!"

"Can you get down first? I still prefer the aloof you."

The words fell.

Zhao Yingkong immediately released Jiang Liu's waist, resuming her indifferent expression, but then explained seriously, "I just saw 'Kong,' and you can probably observe it too..."

She's a lively...goofy girl. I've become a part of her, so my personality has changed a bit, which I think you can understand.

I don't believe you for a second!

Jiang Liu had certainly noticed the "emptiness" in Zhao Yingkong's personality, but Zhao Yingkong's personality change had nothing to do with the other person. It was merely a completion of her personality after continuing the past of the main personality.

of course.

His disciple valued his reputation, and as his master, he couldn't ignore it. So he pretended to be serious and said, "I see. But I can't pass on the great supernatural power of 'Law of Heaven and Earth' to you now. Otherwise, your mind is not yet settled, and if you use it rashly, you might cause great chaos, and even your body might not be able to withstand it. It's better to cultivate your mind and body for a while first."

Zhao Yingkong: “(each-each)”

Jiang Liu felt no burden at all, despite the gaze of his obedient disciple.

He's a very responsible and good teacher!

immediately.

Jiang Liu put his arms around Nezuko and Tanjiro's shoulders and asked in fluent Japanese, "You two, how about going to find Muzan Kibutsuji with your sister Zhao Yingkong?"

Nezuko was unwilling to fight her own brother, and with Zhao Zhuikong's death, the East American team had already lost one game. In order for her brother to live, she had to kill Muzan in order to avoid being punished by the main god after returning.

And what about Tanjiro?

He didn't want to fight Nezuko to the death. He joined the East America team to find Nezuko and find out why she chose to be with Muzan Kibutsuji.

no doubt.

This includes misunderstandings arising from information gaps between the two parties.

But after witnessing Jiang Liu wield Susanoo and Zhao Yingkong defeat Zhao Zhuikong, they lost all desire to sense each other's will through mutual combat, and had only one thought:

Kill Muzan Kibutsuji!

Where are you going?

Zhao Yingkong wasn't the kind of girl who would make a fuss unreasonably. In a flash, she composed herself and asked Jiang Liu about his plans for the future.

"I need to find the sword that Zhao Zhuikong used to knock it away."

Jiang Liu did not hesitate.

"A sword? Why would you care about something like that now?" Zhao Yingkong asked, puzzled. With Jiang Liu's abilities, what kind of divine weapon couldn't he create?

"It's always easier to have something readily available than to have to put in any effort. Besides, Zheng Zha's clone is quite strong, so he had a hard time fighting it with his bare hands."

That's all.
