A complete break with Luo Bing_4 …
The next morning, his injured divine sense began to recover under the effect of the medicine.
After spending half a day with his children, Chen Dengming bid farewell to Jiang Qiang, preparing to return to the Cultivation World.
There were less than two months left for the beheading mission issued by the sect.
Since he was unable to obtain the Daoist script, he couldn’t afford to waste more time in Nanxun.
...
He needed to return to the Cultivation World, continue his cultivation in a place rich with spiritual energy, every hat bit of additional power mattered.
…
Two days later.
Carrying Chen Dengming, the speed of the Black Cloud Leopard was greatly reduced in a cursed place like Nanxun.
It had traveled over five thousand miles to return to the entrance of Nanxun.
As they approached this region, Chen Dengming felt a mysterious sense of threat, leaving him a bit unsettled.
This sense of danger grew stronger as the Black Cloud Leopard landed in the forest.
“Dao…
Daoist friend…
Qu…
Quick, leave…
That familiar evil curse…
is here…”
At this moment, Mini Array Spirit’s warning voice came from the Soul House.
Chen Dengming’s heart tightened.
Without hesitation, he gave the order to retreat, “Heizi!”
“Roar!——”
The Black Cloud Leopard let out a sudden fierce roar, its eyes filled with malevolence and violence.
Abruptly, it lunged towards the ground, rolling on the spot, trying to toss Chen Dengming off.
“Heizi!?”
Chen Dengming uttered a low shout, swiftly dodged aside, and frowned at the suddenly violent Black Cloud Leopard.
“Roar!!”
The eyes of the Black Cloud Leopard filled with malevolence and cruelty, let out a thunderous roar, opened its giant bloody mouth, and lunged at Chen Dengming.
Chen Dengming frowned, a burst of divine light flashed in his eyes.
Instead of retreating, he strode forward, his muscular body glowed with a golden light.
Suddenly, he slapped out, the palm of his hand flashed a blinding silver light that disappeared immediately.
With a ‘pop’ sound!
The leopard’s head was directly hit by Chen Dengming’s palm and like a heavy black iron scale, it crashed heavily into the ground, causing dirt to splash up.
The Black Cloud Leopard’s eyes rolled back, its spiked tongue flopped out from its mouth.
It instantly collapsed to the ground and passed out.
At this very moment, Chen Dengming, who was in a state of Unity of Heaven and Man, sensed the appearance of an evil and powerful spirit force, instantly giving him a dreadful feeling of a splitting headache, as if a thorn was stuck in his back.
“Evil Curse!”
Chen Dengming’s heart sank rapidly, feeling that all the small blood vessels in his body were rapidly expanding.
This sudden situation exceeded his expectations, how could the Evil Curse suddenly venture deep into Nanxun and seemed to have been waiting here at the entrance of Nanxun for a long time.
Who could bear the power of the Evil Curse and bring it here?
Han Yongxu was already dead, and his divine spirit was sealed in his Soul Attracting Banner.
The only one who could still bear the power of the Evil Curse seemed to be only…
“Chen Dengming…”
A cold and melancholy, strangely evil voice came from behind him.
“It’s really you…”
Chen Dengming’s eyebrows rose, slowly turning around to see Luo Bing – dressed in a black robe and draped in a red silk coat.
She still bore that aura which kept people at an arm’s length, cold as ice.
But her face, it seemed, had become much thinner, which instead highlighted her features, making her face lively even in stillness.
However, even the beauty of roses comes with thorns, not to mention this kind of ice rose.
Chen Dengming noticed a black standing box beside Luo Bing.
It was more than one person tall, and apparently resembled a coffin, exuding chilling evil intent.
Luo Bing’s face was shrouded in dim light, only her gemstone-like eyes were gleaming.
She said calmly, “You seem surprised by my arrival.
You shouldn’t be.”
Chen Dengming’s eyes glinted with an unusual radiance.
“Why wouldn’t I be surprised?
Because you have become the furnace tripod for that Profane Ancestor of yours?
But regardless of whether it’s you or it, neither of you should have set foot here.
Wasn’t the last lesson enough?”
As he spoke, his focus remained unwavering.
His Divine Sense swept over his eyes and all around him, making the scenario immediately clear, not even the moonlight in the air nor the changes in airflow caused by the night wind could escape his heightened senses under the state of Unity of Heaven and Man.
But the clearer his perception, the colder he became.
The long coffin-like box across from him appeared a dark abyss that seemed to exude an evil aura, ready to devour anything in its path, instilling a sense of impending terror of falling into it.
Luo Bing calmly said, “You’re so clever.
You should understand that since I’ve come, things have become irreversible.
What I represent is not just myself any longer.”
“Then what are you waiting for?
Or what are you guys waiting for?
Why not give it a go, like Han Yongxu did last time…”
Chen Dengming’s heart suddenly grew tranquil; he was neither alarmed nor scared.
He fortified against all fears and emotional fluctuations, preventing the Profane spirit from exploiting any emotional voids.
The Profane Ancestor’s power seemed to harbor an eerie force that affected a person’s intelligence and emotions, amplifying the deepest desires and defenses.
Suddenly, Luo Bing gave a light smile.
The smile contrasted with her icy countenance, making it look like a beautiful plum blossom in the snow.
Her eyes sparkled with an unusual wisdom as she spoke in a nonchalant tone.
“You are indeed smart and powerful.
During the grand Cultivation World conference, we all underestimated you.
We never imagined you’d achieve so much…unfortunately…”
“Enough!”
Chen Dengming frowned and coldly interjected, “During our time in Luo Family, I severed all ties of gratitude and righteousness with you.”
“I suspected the Profane curse had distressed you after everything happened, yet you used the Profane Ancestor’s Corpse Heart Blood to control the Luo Family ancestor to attack me and sought revenge with the descendants of Zhu Family.
You proved that you’re still yourself.
But you’re no longer the Luo Bing I once knew.
All you care for is self-interest and schemes.
You have not an iota of past affection left.”
“You’re not wrong…”
The darkness in Luo Bing’s eyes deepened.
She suddenly raised her head, eyes shining resplendently as she stared intently at Chen Dengming.
A strange force that could captivate people’s souls emanated from her eyes.
She began a spiritual duel with him.
“I did it intentionally, you may say that I killed Xu Wei and Xi’er.
Killing them was necessary for my rise, and I do not regret.”

As she dredged up the past, it felt like a spearhead penetrating Chen Dengming’s defences.
In his state of Unity of Heaven and Man, Chen Dengming’s peace of mind shook.
His eyes brightened oppressively, “Do you realize what you’re saying?
Even if you could harm Xu Wei, why would you harm Xi’er, who was loyal to you?”
“Isn’t Xi’er killed by you?
You killed her with your own hands!”
Luo Bing’s eyes grew darker and her spiritual power, chaotic as windswept serpents, assaulted his heart.
“When you entrusted Xu Wei to me, you should have known.
Be realistic, given Xu Wei’s Spiritual Root’s nature, why would Luo Family shelter her in a troubled world?
Are you too naive or are you simply seeing others as too kind-hearted?”
“If you felt you couldn’t do it, why did you agree in the first place?
You’re double-dealing, leaving people to die!”
Chen Dengming angrily questioned.
A blazing rage surged from his heart, creating a gap in his state of Unity of Heaven and Man.
At that moment, an extremely strong evil spirit force exploited this emotional void and invaded his mind.
Chen Dengming wanted to react, but he suddenly felt his heart throb, and his body felt like it was melting.
The lid of the black coffin across from him abruptly opened, spewing out a burst of dense black mist.
It heavily pressed towards him so he couldn’t move, as though his feet had been nailed to the ground.
“You’re still so devoted to your emotions…
it’s both your strength and your biggest weakness.
How did someone like you, so bound by these emotions, even become involved with the Heaven Immortal Dao in the Longevity Sect?”
A slightly mournful sigh suddenly emanated from the black mist.
Luo Bing swiftly emerged from the mist, coiling her tender arms around his neck and pressing her curvaceous body against his.
Suddenly, she exerted force.
Chen Dengming’s ears filled with the sound of rushing wind as his body was dragged into the surging black mist and he was drawn into the black coffin.
It truly seemed like a coffin, prepared especially for him…
