"Can I? Hurry and help him, he needs me, now he needs me."
Yoyo turned to look at Broken Wall, but his feet remained still. He had not heard Gu's call, so he chose to trust Gu. In Yoyo's impression, Gu Bian would never gamble with his own life. He believed that if Gu had not called for him, there must be a reason behind it. He raised his head, hoping to see Gu's current situation, and his heart longed for the moment when Gu could summon him. Yoyo desperately wished to help Gu, right now.
A quarter of an hour passed, and Yoyo stood there without any movement. He had not received any news from Gu. What kind of trust was this? Perhaps even if there were a cliff in front of Yoyo and Gu said to jump, Yoyo would not hesitate for a moment.
He was fighting.
To the east of Broken Wall, Azure Bull possessed a powerful Divine Sense that could sense the ongoing battle. He did not deny being human; he did not cast spells like illusions or mirages. Nor did he deny being a wandering poet; he lacked flowery words. Yet, a simple phrase from him instilled a sense of belief in all the demon beasts present—a belief they once held themselves: fighting.
The word "fight" echoed in the hearts of all the Demon Spirits. They too yearned for battle; they had fought before, but never like Gu Na, who faced thousands without retreating. He fought; he was truly fighting. Those few short words were enough; no more vocabulary was needed to describe that battle—just knowing that he was fighting was sufficient.
Half an hour passed, and the sun had completely set in the east. The eyes of some demon beasts glowed different colors at night—red, green, blue—shimmering like gemstones in the dark. Not a single demon beast made a sound; they all waited, waiting for Azure Bull to bring news of that human from Heavenly Ladder. They expressed their recognition and respect for that person through silence. Even as his life gradually slipped away from him, at that moment, that human radiated unparalleled brilliance.
No one knew about Gu; all the demon beasts would come to know that on such a day, their companion had arrived at Demon Spirit territory and challenged Heavenly Ladder. Initially overwhelmed by the siege of the Demon Spirit Army, they would not know that this person had once escaped from the Five Great Sects' joint ambush nor would they understand the price he had paid to survive.
In the distance, the moon climbed slowly into the sky, casting its light upon the earth and draping the World of Mortals in a pure red Veil. The Spirit Cat and Yoyo's crimson fur stood out against the cold moonlight, appearing exceptionally noble. None of this caught anyone's attention; all eyes were fixed on the towering Broken Wall. They all knew someone was fighting there—he was alive.
If only their former selves had possessed the courage to fight like that human.
Moo.
Azure Bull let out a long sigh as if foretelling something. Hearing Azure Bull's voice, all the demon beasts mourned. Master Sister heard their lamentations as Yi Dongzi fell to the ground. "Is it over?"
An hour had passed since the battle began. Even if Gu's spiritual energy were like a vast lake, it should have long since dried up. The senior sister looked at Yoyo, wondering if there was still hope.
All the beasts were wailing, yet Yoyo remained calm. The excitement in the senior sister's eyes was evident; she didn't seem to feel any sadness for Gu. How could that be? Did his spirit beast not sense anything? The senior sister looked at Yoyo with some confusion.
Suddenly, all the wailing ceased. Even the occasional roars of the Demon Spirits from Broken Wall disappeared. The bright moon hanging high in the sky vanished, replaced by an enormous door that seemed to appear from nowhere, intricately carved with patterns that no one could comprehend—like some ancient script lost to humanity.
The door opened slightly, and all the Demon Spirits felt an incredibly pure Spiritual Energy pouring out from it. Soon, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and all spirits in the World of Mortals seemed to hear the anguished cries of Evil Spirits from the Underworld.
"Don't push that door open!"
"Stop! I will unleash Evil Spirits!"
"Please, don't! I will regret it!"
All spirits heard the voices warning against opening the door. The slowly widening entrance momentarily halted, but just for a brief moment before it swung wide open again, releasing even more Spiritual Energy. The wails of Evil Spirits struck the hearts of all spirits in the World of Mortals like a heavy blow, revealing expressions of pain.
At this moment, Hong Yulong, who was drinking with Hong Ling in Lingyuan Pavilion, also sensed the strange phenomenon in the world. He leaned against the railing, applying too much force and accidentally breaking it. He murmured into the air, "Who pushed that door open?"
As a Pseudo Golden Core cultivator, Hong Yulong could feel the existence of that door in the void. No one knew its origin; they only knew that only Pseudo Golden Core cultivators could push it open to break through to Infancy. This was also why those who had achieved Pseudo Golden Core status became so powerful after their breakthrough—yet not every cultivator should be able to see it.
Typically, only when a cultivator broke through would such a phenomenon be visible; outsiders would not see it. But now, what was happening? It seemed this extraordinary event was visible not just to him but to other cultivators as well.
As winds swirled like tigers and clouds roared like dragons, a sound emerged from within—a mix of tiger roars and dragon cries that forcibly suppressed all the wails of vengeful spirits. Then, the door fully opened, revealing a small figure that appeared dazed. The figure was grayish-red and radiated a pale pink glow from its body.
Soon, the little figure gradually showed signs of life, and the scene suddenly disappeared from Hong Yulong's sight. For a brief moment, Hong Yulong felt that the little figure looked so familiar, yet he couldn't recall where he had seen it before. Shaking his head, he returned to drinking with Hong Ling, but deep down, he was resolute in his belief that if they could break through, then so could he—he would definitely succeed.
