Senior White Two curiously asked, “What talent did you get?”
Song Shuhang sighed. “Embryonic Gaze…”
Senior White Two asked, “What kind of talent is that?” He had never heard of such a talent.
Song Shuhang sighed faintly. To have awakened such a weird talent, I am also desperate.
Senior White Two said, “Can you show it to me once?”
Song Shuhang shook his head, and said, “This ability requires me to cast it on someone.”
“Then test it on someone or something.” Senior White Two silently locked on Mini Skylark and Scarlet Heaven Sword.
Scarlet Heaven Sword would have never expected that it would also become a candidate for an experimental subject.
Song Shuhang said, “However, there isn’t a single suitable target. Even if this ‘Embryonic Gaze’ talent is an Eighth Stage magical technique, I’m only at the Fifth Stage Realm. Therefore, even with its superior qualities, the technique will only have an effect on practitioners who are at the Sixth Stage at most.”
Mini Skylark and Scarlet Heaven Sword were too high-level, so they should be immune.
Senior White Two curiously said, “Then, just tell me the general workings of this magical technique.”
Song Shuhang explained, “It should be a forced transformation magical technique. With a glance, I can make the target assume the appearance of an embryo, as in the fetus that comes out of a pregnancy.”
Senior White Two’s lips curled. “I thought that it was some rare magical technique, but it seems no different from those polymorph techniques of the Witch system.”
Moreover, even if the practitioner’s body were to be changed to that of a small lamb or chicken, their strength would still be unchanged.
At most, they would have only changed from being a Fifth Stage practitioner to a Fifth Stage lamb; their basic combat power would still be there, and they could still use flying swords or treasured sabers all the same. In addition, these kinds of magical techniques generally didn’t last long, so their practical value wasn’t that high.
“It’s kind of similar.” Song Shuhang nodded.
“How long can your magical technique last? How effective is it?” Senior White Two asked further.
Song Shuhang replied, “After forcing the target into an embryonic state, they will stay in that form for a period which depends on their strength. I have not tested it yet, so I am not too clear on this. However, their body’s defensive power will definitely be greatly reduced, and they will become very fragile. If the other party uses a secret technique that requires some time to build up energy, I can take that opportunity to use the ‘Embryonic Gaze’, and its effect should be pretty good.”
Senior White Two replied, “Then, you might as well just use the ‘Impregnating Gaze’, that technique’s effect is way better.”
Song Shuhang nodded, and said, “That’s what I was going to talk about next. The reason why I acquired the ‘Embryonic Gaze’ talent was mainly due to having learned the ‘Impregnating Gaze’ beforehand. As such, it should be possible to use the ‘Embryonic Gaze’ talent in conjunction with the ‘Impregnating Gaze’. As for what changes would occur to the magical technique from doing so, I cannot say for sure.”
However, his instincts told him that it would be best for him to avoid using these two magical techniques together. Because if he did so, consequences could be fatal.
A ‘Pregnant + Embryonic State’ combo was no joking matter.
Song Shuhang sighed and stood up.
The Demon Sage Speech was over, and the same was true for the demonic tribulation.
It was time for him to leave the Demonic Tribulation Realm.
Song Shuhang asked, “Senior White, if I were to leave the Demonic Tribulation Realm right now, would I be able to leave the Wielder’s small black room?”
His main body had been forcefully pulled into the Demonic Tribulation Realm because of the ‘Heaven’s Tribulation’.
Therefore, if he left now, was he going to be sent back to the main world? Or was he going to be sent back into the Wielder’s small black room?
Senior White Two said, “Going by the nature of the Demonic Tribulation Realm, you will be sent back to where you have been before you entered it. I’m afraid that you will be sent back into the Wielder’s small black room.”
Song Shuhang said, “Since that’s the case, then I will have to prepare myself.”
After saying that, he willed, and Song Shuhang Two appeared from behind him.
Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!
Song Shuhang chuckled. “This way, even if this body is captured and sent back into the Wielder’s small black room, my clone can still wander around outside.”
In addition to the clone, he also left the virtuous lamia outside. Even if the body and clone were captured, the virtuous snake beauty could stroll outside while sharing their senses.
While he was speaking, the Demonic Tribulation Realm suddenly disappeared.
In the next moment, a big hand suddenly stretched out from nowhere, grabbed Song Shuhang and Song Shuhang Two, and threw them both into the Wielder’s small black room. The big hand also picked up the virtuous lamia—there were no exceptions.
Song Shuhang: “…”
They were all caught in one swoop.
In addition to Song Shuhang, Fairy Skylark’s old body was also picked up and thrown into another small black room.
However, Fairy Skylark’s miniature self was not caught, because since the very beginning, the Wielder had been aiming to lock up the liquid metal ball.
Since Mini Skylark was completely separate from the liquid metal ball, she naturally did not fall among the ranks of those to be caught.
Mini Skylark unwillingly shouted, “Little friend Shuhang, please lend me the Scholarly Sage’s eye!”
However, it was too late. Song Shuhang had already been thrown into the Wielder’s small black room, and Mini Skylark was sent back to the main world.
The practitioners of the universe had unknowingly avoided another catastrophe.
❄️❄️❄️
Senior White Two had already hidden back inside the world of the black lotus, and watched as Song Shuhang and the others were taken away.
Afterward, he took out the ‘Holy Sword of the End’ and stretched out his hand to imprint his mark on the sword.
“Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Combined Magical Treasure… Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique… a cultivation technique with 33 branches… I keep on getting a familiar feeling from it.” Senior White Two stretched out his hand, and the Holy Sword of the End broke down, turning back into 33 different magical treasures.
He unceasingly disassembled and reassembled the magical treasures.
This ‘Holy Sword of the End’ was only one of the possible combinations. Depending on how the magical treasures were combined, they would turn out to have different shapes.
Senior White Two confirmed, “Sure enough… The idea that sparked the creation of such a magical treasure should have come from me.”
Just as everyone had their own styles and ways of thinking when writing stories and creating things, after disassembling and assembling it several times, Senior White Two discovered that the ‘Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Combined Magical Treasure’ was made according to his own style.
Senior White Two said, “I’m positive that I have never tinkered with this Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Combined Magical Treasure. That leaves only one possibility…”
The design of this set of magical treasures was something that his counterpart had researched and created.
What exactly was that counterpart of mine doing back then?
Senior White Two had a headache because that person had never told him anything about what he was doing.
Senior White Two said, “What a terrible personality. We clearly share a huge portion of our memories, so why is there such a great difference in our characters? Can’t he just be similar to me, be fond of jokes, fond of sleeping, and fond of taking in a few pets?”
After putting away the ‘Holy Sword’, he held his chin and fell into thought.
[White, get out here! Today, I’m definitely going to kill you!] The liquid metal ball’s roar could be heard at the entrance of the world of the black lotus.
The liquid metal ball found that it had suddenly lost a part of its memory. It was getting a feeling that this portion of memory was very important, but for some reason, it just couldn’t access it.
It invoked its authority as a ruler of the Netherworld to try to restore that portion of his memory, but it was to no avail.
And so, it ran to the world of the black lotus, and roared at the other ruler of the Netherworld, White.
For the liquid metal ball, regardless of what wrong thing had taken place in the world, it was White’s fault.
There was absolutely nothing wrong with quarreling with White.
Senior White Two shouted, “Sorry, the ‘White’ that you are looking for has closed up. Please contact me at a later date.”
The liquid metal ball yelled, “Come out! Come out here! What was the memory that I’ve lost? Come out here right now! Let’s have a good fight.”
“Strange, what does your loss of memory have to do with me? Why are you looking for me?” Senior White Two said with a guilty conscience.
The liquid metal ball responded, “As long as there’s something wrong, it’s definitely your fault. Anyway, come out here first and let’s have a fight.”
Senior White Two gloomily said, “What is up with your bandit logic?”
The liquid metal ball replied, “Just get out here already! Today, we shall settle things between us, and only one of us shall be left alive.”
Senior White Two rubbed his temples and looked at the ‘Holy Sword of the End’ in his hand.
Hmm, should I test out the power of this new sword?
Senior White Two said, “If you want a fight, then let’s fight. Do you think I’m afraid of you? Unseal the entrance of the world of the black lotus!”
And so, a battle between the rulers of the Netherworld unfolded once again.
❄️❄️❄️
Meanwhile, after Demon Sage Tyrannical Scholar was thrown into the Wielder’s small black room again, the practitioners of the main world and the Netherworld Realm gradually forgot about his existence.
All matters related to Song Shuhang began to fade, including his divinity show and speech.
However, due to the Demon Sage Show making his presence unforgettable for one year, the memories that had seemingly disappeared still left some impressions.
“Strange, I remember that I was listening to a speech just now. Someone who had just ascended to the Eighth Stage was delivering a speech. Aaaah, what’s wrong with my stomach? It hurts!”
“Demon Sage Tyrannical Scholar’s speech is already over. Aaah~ What’s going on? I… I’m pregnant?”
“Who is Demon Sage Tyrannical Scholar? Am I pregnant with his child?”
On this day, the practitioners of the universe firmly remembered that they were pregnant with Demon Sage Tyrannical Scholar’s child. However, as for what Demon Sage Tyrannical Scholar looked like, nobody could remember.
The surface of the trauma in the hearts of these practitioners grew once again.
❄️❄️❄️
Inside the Wielder’s small black room.
Song Shuhang waved, and said, “I’m back.”
Su Clan’s Sixteen said, “Welcome back, Shuhang.”
Soft Feather said, “Senior Song, where did you go?”
“Did you go to transcend a tribulation just now?” Senior White’s clone discovered the improvement of Song Shuhang’s realm at a glance.
Song Shuhang nodded and said, “I was pulled into the Demonic Tribulation Realm by Fairy Skylark again. It’s hard to explain everything in a few words.”
After saying that, he looked at Senior White’s clone, and his mind suddenly stirred. He asked, “Senior White, have you ever thought of becoming the Wielder of the Will?”
Senior White replied, “Of course, the goal of every practitioner is to become the Wielder of the Will.”
Song Shuhang asked, “What would you do if you one day became tired of being the Wielder?”
