Zhong Kui's Diary
I chewed and said, "The taste is not bad, just a bit bland. If it were fried a little and smeared with some old sauce, it might be more flavorful."
To be honest, the taste of this pill was far inferior to that of the Fire God Pill and the Wind Elemental Elixir, and it was very tough, feeling like chewing on a plastic ball.
The White-Clad Woman let out a sound of discontent, "It seems that alchemy is quite an art. I've seen others make pills that are sweet and crispy, melting in your mouth, but you've been chewing on this for so long without swallowing. Is it too hard?"
I stretched my neck and swallowed the pill with effort, laughing, "A bit of hardness is good; it gives something to chew on!"
The White-Clad Woman looked at me suspiciously, "Really?"
I chuckled and changed the subject, "So, can I enter the Mystical Realm now?"
"When you feel warmth in your Dantian area, you can enter the Mystical Realm," the White-Clad Woman replied.
After waiting for a while, I felt no signs of warmth in my stomach and couldn't help but look at the White-Clad Woman with frustration. "How long does it usually take for your Dantian to warm up?"
"I'm not sure either. According to theoretical knowledge, it should be between five to fifteen seconds." After saying that, the White-Clad Woman looked at me in surprise. "What? Your Dantian hasn't warmed up yet?"
"That's right; there's no sign of warmth at all," I answered firmly.
"No warmth?" The White-Clad Woman frowned. "That's impossible. Did I give you the wrong pill?"
As she spoke, a tray appeared in her palm as if by magic, containing about ten pills that looked identical to the one I had just taken.
The White-Clad Woman began sorting through them one by one: "This is the Heart-Piercing Bone-Corroding Pill, this is the Three Laughs Death-Defying Pill, this is the Seven Steps Soul Pursuit Pill..."
The more I listened, the more alarmed I became. "Wait, did you just mix the pill you gave me with these poisons?"
The White-Clad Woman immediately expressed her displeasure, saying, "What do you mean by poison? These are all nourishing substances."
"Piercing the heart and rotting the bones, and the Three Laughs Chasing the Soul—are these also nourishing substances?" I was extremely frustrated.
"A name is just a symbol, it has no real meaning. Do you need it to be called Shaqima or Wife Cake for you to believe it's a nourishing substance?" The White-Clad Woman rolled her eyes at me and then lowered her head to search again, suddenly exclaiming in surprise.
"What happened?" I hurriedly asked, a bad premonition rising in my heart.
"I took the wrong pill earlier; this one is what I meant to give you." The White-Clad Woman handed me another pill.
"What?" I was shocked and stammered, "Then what did you just give me?"
"Since they are all tonics, why ask so many questions?" The White-Clad Woman shot me a glare.
Damn, I can't even ask why after swallowing it? Do you realize this is a medical mishap? If my stomach gets upset, can you afford to compensate me? I have the rare Yin-Yang Physique!
Muttering angrily for a moment, I finally tossed the new pill into my mouth. It melted instantly, and soon my Dantian area began to feel warm.
"My Dantian area is getting a bit hot," I waved at the White-Clad Woman. With a thought, I entered the Frozen Boundless Realm.
"Ice Cream! Ice Cream!" I shouted as soon as I entered.
"Master, what's wrong?" Ice Cream quickly responded. "You look so happy; did you see a beautiful woman bathing or did your circumcision surgery go perfectly?"
"I can merge with your Mystical Realm now!" I laughed loudly.
"Master, I haven't read much; don't trick me!" Ice Cream fell silent for a while before slowly replying.
"Come on, what benefit would I get from tricking you?" I couldn't help but laugh and curse.
"Really?" Ice Stick suddenly shouted in a high-pitched voice.
"Really!" I replied confidently.
"H yeah! H n! H y gd! e n baby! Ami Dad, Ami Dad! Sawasdee ka! Huang Yi La Ku!" Ice Stick shouted incoherently for a while before excitedly asking me, "Master, what method do you plan to use to merge with me?"
"It's simple, just punch me once!" I laughed.
"Is it that simple?" Ice Stick asked suspiciously.
"Yes! It's that simple." I explained the situation outside to Ice Stick.
After listening, Ice Stick pondered for a moment: "Although I don't know if this method will work, I have to give it a try. Master, are you ready?"
I settled into a stance, crossing my arms to protect my head: "Come on!"
Ice Stick grinned and then chanted his spell in the air: "Eternal Ice of Ages, I will form a contract with you, please grant me the power of freezing! Ultimate Freeze Spell, Ultimate Ice Sword!"
Motherfucker, all I wanted was for you to throw a casual punch; I didn't ask you to unleash such an ultimate move.
I shouted urgently, "Ice Stick, have you lost your mind? Why are you casting such an ultimate spell? Just throw a punch! Damn it, stop right now!"
After finishing the incantation, Ice Stick chuckled and said, "Master, please bear with me. I'm afraid the power might affect the merging, so I'm using my most powerful move. With your deep inner strength, I guarantee I won't kill you."
No matter how much I yelled and screamed, he ignored me and continued to summon ice energy.
With a crack, a massive ice block emerged from the snowy ground in the distance. This ice block slowly flew into the air, followed by another ice block breaking through the snow, then a third, a fourth... In no time, countless large ice blocks were floating in the air.
The ice blocks moved through the air along a specific trajectory. Whenever two ice blocks touched each other, they would crack and merge into a new larger ice block. The cracking sounds continued as more and more ice blocks joined together, growing larger and larger. With the final crack, these ice blocks formed into a giant sword over a hundred meters long, shimmering with dazzling cold light.
The giant sword slowly swayed in the air, its tip gradually turning. When the tip was aimed at me, the giant sword emitted a piercing sound as it rushed toward me.
Damn, if I get stabbed by such a massive Ice Sword, will I even survive?
In my frustration, I let out a strange cry and waved my hands. First, a fire dragon unleashed a clear Dragon Roar and charged at the Ice Sword. Then, a massive Wind Blade suddenly took shape, ready to collide with the Ice Sword. Finally, a large Electric Glass Dome flickered into existence, tightly enveloping me.
With three layers of protection, no matter how big it is, I'm not afraid!
Damn! What kind of advertisement line is that?
With a crackling sound, the fire dragon wrapped around the Ice Sword, producing a teeth-grinding friction noise. Flames were continuously extinguished by the ice, while the Ice Sword was gradually melted by the fire. The two forces clashed for about a minute before the fire dragon dissipated into smoke, and at the same time, the Ice Sword shattered into countless fragments.
Not only that, but the entire Ice Realm began to collapse. Giant ice blocks fell from above. At some point, a round black hole appeared in the center of the air. The black hole rotated slowly as if it had immense gravitational pull, sucking in falling ice blocks and snow from the ground.
The rotation of the black hole accelerated, and its gravitational force grew stronger. The ice blocks and snow created afterimages in mid-air. Soon, in the entire Ice Realm, aside from my massive Wind Blade and the Electric Glass Dome surrounding me, everything else was drawn into that black hole.
Once everything was absorbed, the rotation of the black hole gradually slowed down. Just as it came to a complete stop, I was ejected from the Mystical Realm.
I still maintained my posture of waving at the White-Clad Woman, who nodded back at me: "Hmm."
Smiling at her, I lowered my hand: "I'm back!"
"How was it?" The White-Clad Woman seemed unfazed by my quick return and asked with a smile: "Didn't you already acquire ice elemental magic?"
I sensed the energy within me; indeed, there was now a new energy flowing through my meridians. When I touched it with my mind, a chilling sensation immediately washed over me. It seemed to be true ice elemental magic. However, this ice elemental magic was as abundant as Lightning Magic and Fire Elemental Magic, which puzzled me. After all, those three energies—Thunderfire—had been accumulated through energy gathering and elixirs to become so rich.
Thinking about it, it must be due to the elixir given to me by the White-Clad Woman; its effect was equivalent to that of the previous Wind Elemental Magic elixir.
"Yes, I have acquired ice elemental magic," I nodded in response.
"Then try the second move again," the White-Clad Woman said with a smile.
"Okay!"
I took a deep breath, controlling six streams of pure energy, and cast the Spell, kicking the wall with force.
The wall did not break from my kick but emitted a blinding white light. As I saw this light, I knew that the final layer of the illusion had been shattered.
Just as I was about to turn and thank the White-Clad Woman, I realized she had vanished without a trace, as if she had never existed. Perhaps she was part of the illusion itself, and now that it was broken, she naturally dissipated.
The white light grew increasingly intense, forcing me to close my eyes. I felt like there was something I had forgotten to do. Right! I hadn't even asked her name throughout our encounter. If I get another chance, I must remember to ask; surely she can't just be called "Your Majesty," right?
When I opened my eyes again, I found myself still standing in the same square where it all began. The floor beneath me, resembling white jade, stretched endlessly to the horizon.
Beside me stood A Li, wearing a broad smile as she looked at me.
"What on earth are you doing?" I complained immediately. "Wasn't it supposed to be a straightforward trip to the Hall of Life and Death? Why did you make me go through an illusion?"
"Unexpected things happen; why are you being so fussy?" To my surprise, A Li seemed even more impatient than I was.
"You..." I pointed at A Li, momentarily at a loss for words. If you wanted me to self-harm with a blade, I would have taken you down long ago.
"What’s wrong with me?" A Li rolled her eyes. "Do you still want to meet the Judgment of Life and Death? If you do, stop whining. Do you believe I'll make you self-harm?"
Damn it, I knew she would pull that card.
I sighed in resignation. "Fine then, it's up to you."
A Li huffed and said, "Remember my current position and watch my steps; follow me."
"En!"
A Li stepped to the right, then her Right Foot extended to a position about one foot forward at a forty-five-degree angle: "This is the first step."
"En!"
Next, A Li's left foot continued to step forward at a forty-five-degree angle to the right, also about one foot: "This is the second step."
"En!"
"You need to pay attention for the third step. Right Foot steps back at a forty-five-degree angle to the right, one foot distance. If you say 'en' again, I'll chop you down!" A Li glared at me sideways.
"Oh!"
"You'll see!" A Li shot me a fierce look, and then Right Foot stepped back one foot to the right rear. With a whoosh, she suddenly disappeared from sight.
