Black Myth: Starting from the Destined One-Chapter 38 - 34 Heaven and Earth Six Dusts

“Who… are… you…”

After repeatedly smashing his head on the ground, Muqiang Baoshan’s gaze suddenly became clear.

“Quick… save… me…”

Shortly after his moment of clarity, Muqiang Baoshan lapsed back into a delusional state, caught between the realms of hell and heaven.

Seeing Muqiang Baoshan disheveled with his forehead bloodied, Li Ping’an couldn’t help feeling compassion. He wished Zixia would stop, but he understood that stopping her would cause Muqiang Baoshan to revert to his delusional state and bring harm to the human world.

After a while, the movements of the deranged Muqiang Baoshan, who was pounding the earth with his head, gradually slowed, and his eyes finally returned to normal.

“Thank you…”

Finally free from agony, Muqiang Baoshan stood up and gratefully looked at Zixia.

“It’s finally over…”

Li Ping’an sighed in relief. Although Muqiang Baoshan was despicable, he was a victim of demonic bewitchment, and his crimes were not worthy of death. Helping him regain his sanity was indeed a significant achievement.

Just as Zixia was about to cease her efforts, the elated Li Ping’an noticed the previously invisible black line connecting Muqiang Baoshan and his horse suddenly becoming visible and thickening substantially, as thick as a thigh.

“Where are the people you were supposed to prepare?”

The recently stabilized Muqiang Baoshan suddenly reverted to his initial zombie-like state, mechanically repeating that strange phrase.

“How is this possible? Even deities and Buddhas, if caught by my Silver Chain Golden Bell, cannot break free unless I willingly release them. How could he…”

Zixia was truly startled and immensely shocked, but to thoroughly resolve the demonic confusion afflicting Muqiang Baoshan’s mind, she had to continue her spellwork even more vigorously.

Yet, this time, the transformation in Muqiang Baoshan was even more dramatic than before; enveloped by demonic Qi similar to that found on The Six Demons of Five Finger Mountain, his entire being ascended, once again merging with his horse.

“Why does my mind-controlling Magical Treasure have no effect on him anymore? Truly bizarre!”

Zixia frantically shook the Silver Chain Golden Bell, and the tones it emitted materialized, visible to the naked eye, looking like countless invisible Flying Swords relentlessly stabbing at Muqiang Baoshan.

But now, Muqiang Baoshan not only didn’t hide, but he looked down upon Zixia with contempt. His body’s demonic qi not only blocked Zixia’s melody but also gradually solidified and transformed into the shape of a strange demon.

“Master, I’m here to help you!”

Li Ping’an then realized that Zixia was no longer fighting Muqiang Baoshan, but was battling the Six Demons on the Five Fingers Peak.

The strength of the Six Demons of Five Fingers Peak was terrifying; how could Zixia possibly be their match? Fearing for Zixia’s safety, Li Ping’an prepared to risk his life to help her.

“My Life-bound Magic Treasure Silver Chain Golden Bell has been broken by the demon! Ping’an, run quickly!”

Zixia, shaking the Silver Chain Golden Bell, leapt down and used her body to push away Li Ping’an, who was coming to help.

“Run! The farther, the better!”

“Zixia, how could I possibly abandon you!”

Li Ping’an still tried to step forward to help, only to be kicked away by Zixia, sending him flying five meters:

“Fool, I know you truly love me, but now is not the time to be impulsive. Run quickly!”

Fortunately, Zixia had kicked Li Ping’an on his Hundred Plays Breastplate and he wasn’t hurt. But seeing Zixia sacrifice her own life to save him made him unable to flee.

Although he was very afraid of dying, even if his current skills couldn’t help Zixia much, Li Ping’an’s survival to this point wasn’t solely due to his cultivation or weapon; he relied more on his wits.

He was observing, thinking of a plan, he had to save Zixia.

After the demonic qi on top of Muqiang Baoshan’s head solidified, he reached forward with his right hand, and a stream of demonic qi emerged, solidifying into a gigantic black sword.

“I didn’t expect to encounter the Silver Chain Golden Bell of Fairy Zixia from five hundred years ago, a Mystic Treasure of Heaven and Earth that was rumored to have defeated Erlang Shen and the Four Heavenly Kings. It’s truly powerful. Unfortunately, we six fear least the spirit-type magical treasures, because we are…”

“Heaven and Earth Six Dust!”

The solidified demonic qi spoke as if from one mouth but emitted six different voices; after speaking, it raised the solidified giant sword, slashing ferociously towards Zixia.

“Ping’an! Run fast!”

Facing such a dominating attack, Zixia’s first thought was to urge Li Ping’an to escape quickly; only then did she retreat and dodge nimbly.

With a thunderous boom, Zixia narrowly avoided the strike, but the place where she had just been was carved into a huge deep pit, raising a cloud of dust and debris.

Although the solidified demonic qi form was massive, its attack speed was astonishingly fast, becoming faster with each strike, almost too quick for the naked eye to catch.

In the eyes of Li Ping’an and Zixia, the gigantic sword was so fast it appeared as a thin line. As thin as a spider’s thread, but its power was boundless; a graze meant injury, direct contact meant death.

Zixia dodged nimbly, weaving and flying, but gradually, the solidified demonic qi cornered her. The surrounding swords had formed a net, ensnaring Zixia within it.

“Ping’an, Supreme Treasure, let’s leave our love for another life…”

Zixia had resigned herself to fate, neither the Ziqing Dual Swords nor her Life-bound Magic Treasure Silver Chain Golden Bell could subdue him. Faced with desperation, she could only meekly accept her fate and silently prepare for death.

But the only thing she couldn’t set at ease was Li Ping’an; she hoped he could live well.

As she tearfully cast one final deep look toward Li Ping’an, she discovered he was no longer in his earlier position but had vanished; disappointed, Zixia lowered her head and mocked herself:

“I actually forgot that this simpleton is most afraid of death and has probably already run away…”
