Three people cast spells at the same time, and no one of the three people could see the spells of others. Everything seemed to have not happened, and the whole world was as calm as before.

But it changed eventually.

After a moment, Zuo Liuying let out a breath, then her expression became stiff, and cracks appeared on her face, like a dry wood.

Mu Xingqiu fainted slightly in his mind, lost all his magic power, and fell down. When he was still several feet away from the ground, he was grabbed by one hand and fell gently.

Qin Lingshuang, who was dressed in Taoism, looked more like Fangfang back then than the real illusion body. Mu Xingqiu could even see shyness and excitement in her eyes, as if there were still a few teeth missing in her mouth.

The familiar feeling flies in a flash, Mu Xingqiu took two steps back and broke free from her palm, "Did you get Zuo Liuying's Dharma body?"

Qin Lingshuang nodded, "The Dharma body does not belong to Zuo Liuying. This was created by Yi Shijun in Zhibubangli. Do you still remember?"

Of course Mu Xingqiu remembers it, but it was not what he cared about, "Where is him?"

"I was killed by your spell and my soul was scattered."

Mu Xingqiu looked around. Even in the highest level of world, his soul was invisible. "Why did you make a move just now? Kun Dun? Why haven't you shown up?"

Qin Lingshuang smiled, "There is no Kun Dun anymore, Zuo Liuying is Kun Dun. The two of them have become one. Let's cast spells at the same time. You killed Zuo Liuying, and I killed Kun Dun."

"It's that simple?"

"It's that simple. We are all the same. We have accumulated the most strength in a spell, and we have decided to win and lose. You and I are the winners."

Mu Xingqiu was confused and felt that everything was not real, "No, Kun Dun's magic power is so powerful..."

"His strong power is used to build the eleventh floor of the world. On the highest level, he doesn't have much mana left, nor does he need mana. He thought no one could come up."

"But you and I are here."

"Because the closed spell in the Demon-Suppressing Bell world failed, it's all your credit."

Mu Xingqiu still felt unbelievable and took a few steps back, the further away he was. Qin Lingshuang became clearer in his eyes, "We can't retreat, right?"

Qin Lingshuang shook her head, "There is no way, the rules are like this."

"What should I do if the Demon-Suppressing Bell?"

"Let the Nascent Soul solve this problem. After discovering that the world is shrinking, they may be able to come up with a solution."

"Stop hiding it, tell me the truth." Mu Xingqiu began to believe Zuo Liuying's last reminder: Qin Lingshuang knew more than he expected.

After pondering for a moment, she said, "The Nascent Soul is the reincarnation of a Taoist priest in the previous generation."

"Um."

"They deceived Kun Dun. When you sent the souls of ordinary Taoist priests into the reincarnation team, in Kun Dun's opinion, they were all Taoist priests who were submissive. The former Taoist priests knew who the enemy they were going to face, and they also knew that they had no time to grow up and practice, so they could only trick Kun Dun into the trap from the beginning."

"Kun Dun can't even see it?"

"Kun Dun only improves magic power in the Demon-Pulling Cave. After he comes out, he starts to learn various magic spells in the world, so he is blinded. Sometimes, magic power will be defeated by magic, just like your ancestor's tower talisman, which can collect the great achievements of magic and launch a fatal blow to powerful enemies. Your memory may have leaked the truth, but Kun Dun advises you not to retrieve your memory too early. After you finally find it, the Illusion of Minxin is already strong enough to protect the Niwan Palace."

"You knew this a long time ago?"

"You look down on me. After the Taoist priest reincarnation, he will lose most of his memories. No one can tell me this. But as soon as you talk about non-Ninthian Soul, I guessed it."

Mu Xingqiu thought for a while, and the doubts were resolved, but he still did not have the joy of victory in his heart. "We have to find a way to return to the real world."

"There is no way, your magic power has disappeared, and I have very little left. Unless we practice again and gain more magic power in this world, there may be a way to decline."

I don’t know how long it will take to practice again. Mu Xingqiu shook his head, still feeling uneasy, and an idea suddenly popped up in his mind, “Wrong, we are all wrong!”

"What's wrong?" The smile on Qin Lingshuang's face slowly disappeared.

"Kun Dun is not here at all. It's not him you just killed!"

"Is there a higher world?"

Mu Xingqiu recalled the scene of his rising layer by layer and finally understood the problem. "The rules, the rules of the treasure world are that they can only rise but not fall, so Kun Dun hid in the world of the Ancestor Tower on the bottom layer! That is the only place lower than the real world. I have entered it before, but I didn't care..."

Mu Xingqiu's heart was pounding, "We are all trapped."

Qin Lingshuang thought for a while, "Maybe you guessed it right, but we have no choice. Rules are rules, unless we have more powerful power than the rules themselves."

"That's useless. Power will only make us farther and farther away from Kun Dun... Ah, I understand Kun Dun's intention, and he cannot transcend the rules, so he must stay in the lowest world. Only in this way can one riser after another be released. They will enter the real world and encourage everyone to continue to rise..."

"This is really a trick." Qin Lingshuang finally fully believed Mu Xingqiu's guess. "In this way, the real world will continue to transport new practitioners to the upper world, fight continuously, and launch new formations. Even the controllers of the treasure will be replaced from generation to generation to ensure balance and the safety of the lowest world."

"We must go down." Mu Xingqiu was a little excited. "The Nascent Soul Spell in the Demon-Suppressing Bell World has no meaning at all. Whether it is successful or not, it will not affect Kun Dun's plan. The former Taoist priest deceived Kun Dun, and Kun Dun also deceived them!"

Mu Xingqiu paced back and forth impatiently, suddenly stopped and stretched out his right hand, "I still have the tenth magic, I can't help but be able to use it. Maybe I can descend to the lower world, but I don't have magic power, so I need you to help me."

Qin Lingshuang was silent for a while and said, "Isn't this good?"

Mu Xingqiu was stunned, "Of course not. Kun Dun will continue to send out distractors. In these eleven worlds, the ten upper worlds will always be in chaos, and only Kun Dun can enjoy peace."

"It's not just Kun Dun." Qin Lingshuang said calmly, "There is also here. Since we have guessed his plan, we can speed up our practice. Kun Dun himself will not rise. No matter how strong the people he sent, we are not afraid."

"We..." Mu Xingqiu retreated again, "Is your Taoist heart false?"

Qin Lingshuang smiled again, which was Mu Xingqiu's familiar smile. A hint of excitement was hidden in her shyness, "The heart of a Taoist priest is true, but I have the only heart of a Taoist priest, and I am not influenced by other Taoist priests, and can do what I want to do. This will not destroy my state of mind. The only thing I want to do is stay here with you."

Mu Xingqiu had a bang in his mind, as if he was hit hard, but the first thing he thought of was not Qin Lingshuang, but a doubt finally resolved in his mind, "That is, Kun Dun wanted to destroy the Taoist hearts of others, because the Taoist hearts are connected, just like... like the demon clan."

Everything was clear, and Kun Dun's plan was no longer covered with fog.

"Nothing can keep calm more effectively than mutual supervision. This is true for the demons and Taoists. You can also cultivate the heart of Taoists. There is no secret between us, but we must never have a third person. We will join forces to defeat all those who enter the top world, right?"

A familiar face and a familiar smile, but this is not Fangfang in Mu Xingqiu's memory. He stood there for a while and said, "I'm sorry."

"Why?"

"I shouldn't have put your soul into the sword at the beginning. Sun Yulu reminded me that there will be unexpected consequences for the soul of the life of the soul, but... I can't bear it. I thought you have a soul and will be different from others."

"I am indeed different from others. I can practice in a pure soul state, and no other person can do it. Yi Shijun is known as the demon of all souls, and he must have a body."

"It was my fault that made you change and that you were no longer Fangfang." Mu Xingqiu felt heartbroken.

Qin Lingshuang still smiled, "You are not the Xiaoqiu of the past, why do I have to be the Fangfang of the past? This is our Yelin Town. Forget the Taoist dynasty and the whole world. For us, they did not exist before, nor did they exist now. The middle part is just a dream."

Mu Xingqiu stepped towards Qin Lingshuang. The closer he got, the blurry his appearance became, and the more he looked like Fangfang.

He stopped, raised his hands and gently held the face, breathing her breath and warmth. The whole world really seemed to not exist, only this only reality was left.

"If I had the heart of a Taoist priest, maybe I would stay." Every word was so difficult, and Mu Xingqiu's hands were trembling. "But I can't. Losing you in Duanliu City was the most regretful mistake in my life. But Yang Qingyin, Mu Dong'er, Bald Zi, Shen Hao, Feifei, Lao Chi... After that, I experienced too many things and got too many things. Sorry, I can't lose them again, do something I regret again."

Qin Lingshuang's eyes were as clear as the lake. She used the heart of a Taoist priest to reflect Mu Xingqiu's sadness and regret, and understood that it was all real, so deep that it almost filled her entire lake of mood.

She inputs magic power into Mu Xingqiu's body, "Go." She said, savoring his sadness and regret, wanting to take them for himself, but her mood is still calm.

"Save your tenth spell, I have a way to send you to the lower world."

Mu Xingqiu couldn't speak or move, so he kept holding her cheek.

"Zuo Liuying has opened up a path for you. He left behind a Dharma body, but he did not die. The soul returned to the world of Demon-Suppressing Bell, where his true body was."

She hoped he could get closer, and sure enough, he leaned forward slightly.

"Your physical body will stay here, only the soul will continue to decline, and there is no inner alchemy and mana. You must find a body that is willing to accommodate you on each level. If everything is as you expected, Kun Chao in the lowest world will not have much magic power left. Kill him, the rule of only rising and not falling in the eleven worlds may fail. At that time, I will find a way to return the physical body to you."

Mu Xingqiu tried hard to say the word "thank you", and Qin Lingshuang smiled and said, "I don't want your thank you, I want you to repay this favor one day."

"You have a method of re-destruction. If you choose to stay in the real world, your life span is no different from that of mortals. From today on, after all humans and demons die, their souls will enter my world until you come in too. You said that you have experienced too much and obtained too much. Can death end all this?"

Mu Xingqiu smiled, yes, death can end everything and start everything. He was just unsure whether this was betrayal.

"There is no perfection in the world, and the same is true for magic. Maybe this is better..." Qin Lingshuang murmured.

Mu Xingqiu found that he was gradually retreating, but his body stayed in his original place, leaning forward slightly, holding his unchanged cheeks in both hands.

Duanliu City was shaking. After a while, Mu Xingqiu saw the children in the city, Xiao Hao, and Zuo Liuying.

Zuo Liuying had just returned to her former body, looking haggard and aged for decades. Xiao Hao didn't care at all, and was dancing with a little turtle.

Zuo Liuying was casting a spell, distinguishing Nascent Soul from non-Nascent Soul. Suddenly, he stopped and looked at the only tall man in the child group.

Mu Xingqiu entered the bald man's body without any resistance.

Zuo Liuying didn't ask anything, but instead explained, "I have to die once to get rid of Kun Dun's shackles. Now I'm free. Go. Complete your mission and break Kun Dun and his rules. From now on, there is no difference between all worlds, they are just different. I will stay here and continue to complete the closed spell. The Taoist priests will be with me to ensure the integrity of the demon-suppressing bell, separate different worlds, and the hatred between the demon race and human beings cannot be resolved. Then let them not meet each other."

"Who are you talking to?" Xiao Hao asked in surprise.

Mu Xingqiu's soul left the bald man. Continue to descend, and he must descend to the bottom before the sealing spell is completed.

The dragon demon smiled, "Qin Lingshuang told me, it turns out that it's so complicated. Welcome to live in my body for the time being. Let me give you a ride. If possible, my world will be integrated with Mu Donger's world in the future, specifically to accommodate monsters and ghosts. There will always be one of them who will like me, right?"

The soul descended again.

Mu Dong'er Gu Shouzhen Qi Tower also received a reminder from Qin Lingshuang in advance: "Haha, the world below has not risen. I am not the weakest. Father, come to my body. Since you guessed the truth, you will naturally challenge Kun Dun."

The soul passed on what the dragon demon said to Mu Dong'er, and he was very happy, "It's great, I like demons, but I must bring the bald man over. Please tell your mother that I won't go back, I will let myself grow up, and no demon dares to bully me..."

The soul only stayed for a short while and fell involuntarily.

In the world where the furnace is not extinguished, a group of Taoist priests and magicians looked at each other. Feifei accommodated his soul and said loudly: "The information we just got is true. Let's choose. Later, you can either go to the demon world or Zuo Liuying, and you can also return to the real world, but you will lose all your magic power or demon power. This is not the rule I set..."

The soul cannot stay, and it will fall.

Yi Shijun and Shouque's world are still entangled, but they have stopped fighting and look at each other in shock.

"A pure soul world? I am willing to join." Shouque said, using his own Dharma body to accommodate the descending soul.

"I don't want to...I want to..." Yi Shijun's hundreds of souls disagree.
To be continued...
