Ah?

Xu Shu seemed to have fallen from a height, suddenly returning to reality from the future vision mode of his journey.

He sat on the ground somewhat dazedly, watching the Tai Chu Scroll churn out a heap of evaluations before him, mouth agape, his mind filled with question marks: Ah???

Wait, did I die?

Recalling the image of being smashed to smithereens by Wuxin’s slap, the screams of cells in his body that couldn’t react in time still echoed in his mind. Xu Shu suddenly turned pale and bent over at the roadside, vomiting and coughing non-stop.

To be honest, after so many journeys, he had grown accustomed to death.

But this time, it was a bit too sudden or rather, being killed while he was excited, resulted in a long-absent "death reaction."

Moreover, this journey had the most evaluations he had ever received.

It felt like the Tai Chu Scroll wasn’t being cheeky this time, rather, it gave a highly positive evaluation.

"It seems that not only can forcibly performing some inhumane, Heavenly Defiance maneuvers earn good evaluations, if I perform truly splendid maneuvers in the journey, I can also win the favor of the Tai Chu Scroll. *cough cough cough*"

A few minutes later, Xu Shu gradually calmed his heart palpitations and thoughtfully touched the invisible void in front of him, feeling that he had gained a new understanding of the Tai Chu Scroll.

This was indeed a new discovery, and a good one, that could be used in the future.

But, these are stories for another time.

Right now, regarding the reward from this journey, Xu Shu felt it was quite outstanding.

With this "True Eye," he only needed to manipulate it a bit, and he could directly know the truths he desired through an arcane form. All the effort today was not in vain. Now, the veil of Tailed Ksitigarbha could be pulled aside.

However, as good as the reward was, Xu Shu was somewhat dissatisfied with the ending of this journey.

Initially, he had planned to use the last minutes to squeeze in one more exploration to confirm whether he had moved from the "Underground Illusion" to the "Surface Domain."

Unexpectedly, he was killed by a reverse slap from Wuxin, bringing his plan to an abrupt end.

Damn, this ungrateful, ruthless woman, so powerful!

The more Xu Shu thought, the more frustrated he became, his mind a mixture of bewilderment and surprise.

Although he was unguarded at that moment, his physical strength was still present, yet she managed to kill him easily; her power seemed excessively formidable.

"Judging by the force, she could likely be unmatched even among Second Rank, this woman..."

"But what on earth is she doing? Is she crazy?"

In the region of the gate, I took such care of her, we were clearly in a passionate affair, so why did she kill me after we emerged?

It couldn’t be that you are also Black Widow, enjoying the game of devouring the same kind? Clearly, the timing doesn’t add up...

Xu Shu faced the rising sun to the east, his face glowing red, not far behind was the bustling (19,18) lighthouse, occasionally echoing phrases like "Have you seen my mother?"

His brows furrowed tighter, sinking into deep thought, his brain constantly flashing through the scenes experienced "today."

From finding the boundary lines of the "Surface Domain" at noon, located at the "human-shaped" temple rooftop, which served as the entrance to the "Underground Illusion";

To entering the "Underground Illusion" with Wuxin and discovering some information about the Tailed Ksitigarbha and his illusion;

Also obtaining the vital information that his entry into the "Surface Domain" would be detected by Ksitigarbha;

As well as encountering the uncrystallized Nie Qiba, seeing dead Hunter Association members reappear, and the previously deceased Bahamut also resurfacing, etc.

At the last moment, he discovered a branching path at the temple base, entered a clearing shortly ahead, and returned to the temple rooftop, and Wuxin was there too...

Wait.

Wuxin was there too?

A flash of insight crossed Xu Shu’s mind.

He remembered, Wuxin was severely injured inside, her legs completely broken. Short-distances might not be an issue, but she couldn’t possibly cover long treks, so she must have directly returned to the inside of the temple rooftop.
