Chapter 618 Sword of Damocles
Above the wilderness.
"Is this the Divine Gate?"
Raising her head, Mu Qingzhi looked at the huge magic circle composed of complex free-style, which reflected the sky above the entire Xingli Palace.
"Yes, after the Divine Gate is the path of attainment that I spent thousands of years to build. If you walk to the end of the path of harmony, you can welcome back my divine body."
Standing beside her, Sakai Yuji nodded.
"But the Divine Gate has no protection. Once this gate is destroyed, all those who enter the gap between the two worlds will be lost there forever."
"It's just a gatekeeping mission. Don't worry, no problem."
Yawning, Mu Qingzhi responded lazily.
"You can go as long as you want. With me here, the Divine Gate will be fine."
"... Before that, please return the Divine Iron Ruyi first."
After a brief silence, Sakai Yuji turned his head and looked at her.
"The Yidao is extremely dangerous. For the sake of safety and to shorten the time we stay in the Divine Gate as much as possible, the Divine Iron Ruyi is absolutely necessary."
This time when he set out for the Divine Gate, he will take most of the main forces of the masquerade with him. There is no need to say much about the three pillars of his family, and Bad Blade and Tan Dan Qiujiu are also members of the group.
In fact, if possible, he would like to take "Cai Piao" Fei Leisi with him, but the other party only obeys the orders of Xia Zhi, and he, the deputy leader, can't command her at all.
"Divine Iron Ruyi...Okay, you take it."
After thinking for a while, Mu Qingzhi reached into the night hat and returned the Divine Iron Ruyi very simply.
There are almost no enemies in the Divine Gate. There are only the souls of the ancient fire mists thousands of years ago. It is meaningless for her to continue to hide this weapon.
"...I remember Xiu Denan said that this weapon fell into the sea."
"Yes, I worked hard to retrieve it later. Remember to ask him to pay for his hard work. He is so old, but he can't even take care of his own weapon. Isn't it shameful?"
"………"
"Anything else? If you don't have anything to do, you can leave it quickly. Just go and leave the task of guarding the house to me."
Sitting back on the chair on the balcony, Mu Qingzhi picked up the Coke on the table beside her.
"Don't worry, I will guard the house."
"...You seem to be in a bad state recently."
After staring at her for a while, Sakai Yuuji suddenly asked.
"Is it convenient to ask, what have you been doing during this period?"
"Are you? I guess you didn't rest well. I'll rest more later."
Waving her hand, Mu Qingzhi looked indifferent.
"Come to think of it, why don't you hurry up and leave? The others are already waiting there, waiting for you, the deputy leader."
"...You have been deliberately stirring up hatred."
Taking a deep breath, Yuji Sakai did not intend to leave, but sat down on a chair beside him.
"Not only to the fire fog, but also to the apostles. Have you ever thought that when everything is settled, you will be completely hostile to both parties?"
"Well... so what?"
After drinking a sip of Coke, Mu Qingzhi looked up at the other party.
"As long as what I do does not affect the progress of the decree, I can do whatever I want. This is what you promised me before. Don't tell me you are going to regret it now."
"It's me. I'm worried about you."
Sighing, Yuji Sakai pointed at himself with his backhand.
"During this period of time, as the war progresses, your mental state is getting worse and worse... I came here to help you, not to be a burden to you."
There is almost no need to focus on it. Anyone with a discerning eye can notice that as the war progresses, the spirit of our leader is becoming more and more sluggish day by day, and his complexion is getting worse and worse. He looks listless at all times.
But in contrast, the feeling brought by our leader is getting more and more terrifying, and the invisible sense of oppression is increasing day by day. In the past, the apostles in the upper echelons of the masquerade could still face their leader directly, but now, no apostle dares to look directly at the other party.
The invisible pressure from the spirit, some weaker apostles did not even dare to breathe in front of the other party.
For this, Yuji Sakai felt particularly deeply.
Originally, his perception ability was far beyond that of ordinary people, and with the bonus of the Creation God fused with him, he could perceive the changes in Zhi more clearly than anyone else.
In the past, Zhi's aura was pure and clear, but now, his aura was terribly turbid. Countless different auras were randomly superimposed together, forming a terrifying dark aura that almost devoured anyone.
Mental pollution brought about changes in the mental outlook. Maybe even Zhi herself didn't realize how scary she was now.
Also, his original intention of coming here was not only to take care of each other, but also to help the other party to attract hatred, but now it's good that the hatred was almost all drawn to the other party.
Even now, within the masquerade, there are still some rumors that he, the deputy leader, endured humiliation and bore heavy burdens... With Zhi, the leader, at the forefront, his reputation as the deputy leader is scary.
"Uh... Don't worry, I'm fine. I'm practicing now."
After a short pause, Mu Qingzhi put down the cup in his hand and patiently answered.
"Strictly speaking, my mental state may be a little worse now, but in fact, I am undergoing a transformation from the inside out. It's okay."
"... I will come back as soon as possible."
After staring at each other for a while, Yuji Sakai sighed and stood up again.
"Don't worry, it won't be long before everything will come to an end."
It doesn't take too long to build a new world. When the body of the Creator God Sacrifice Snake returns, we can start the creation of the world.
——The interval between the two will not exceed one week.
"No... Do I really look that bad?"
After watching Yuji Sakai and his group disappear behind the [God's Gate], Mu Qingzhi reached out and touched his cheek, looking depressed.
Shana was like this before, and now Sakai Yuuji is like this again, and she is least good at dealing with this kind of situation.
[So I said, you can't hide yourself at all... Now we can start to implement the second stage of the plan, who are you going to choose? ]
At the right time, the system's voice sounded.
[After they return from the God's Gate, the distance to the creation is really close, and we have to make arrangements early. ]
"...Yu Xuan, we have to pick a heavyweight."
After thinking for a while, Mu Qingzhi gave an answer.
"As for the location, choose the creation location. When the creation comes, almost 90% of the apostles in the world will rush to Misaki City, and the same is true for Huowu. There is no place more suitable for the exit stage than there."
"...When the time comes, I will hang a sword of Damocles over everyone's head."
