"Recognizing a friend?" Yun Lintian furrowed his brow.
He could understand Gui Xuan's message, but he was puzzled as to why the black hand, which was a part of the God of Death's body, considered him a friend.
"Aren't you the God of Death?" Yun Lintian looked at the black hand and asked.
The black hand gave him a thumbs-up again.
"Wait a moment." Yun Lintian took out a large book and a pen. "Can you write?"
Yun Lintian held the book and passed the pen to the black hand.
The black hand grabbed the pen and wrote something in the book.
Yun Lintian took a look and saw a long sentence.
"I cannot remember the past, but I know that I am the right hand of Si Wang, the Primordial God of Death. I recognized your strength."
Yun Lintian was surprised. "You really don't remember anything else?"
The black hand wrote more. "I don't even know why I am here. You two are the first person I have met so far."
Yun Lintian was puzzled as he pointed at Gui Xuan. "Do you know him?"
The black hand responded. "I don't know, but his aura gives me the feeling of seeing an old friend. I feel like we have known each other for a long time."
Yun Lintian was even more puzzled. "Could it be that the first-generation Black Turtle God was friends with the God of Death?"
He glanced at Gui Xuan and saw the latter looking at him with an innocent expression. Without a doubt, Gui Xuan had no idea as well.
Yun Lintian couldn't think of anything. The information he had wasn't enough to make a further deduction. However, he had a hunch that the entire story about the Primordial War he knew was definitely not true, just like what the first-generation Black Turtle God had previously told him.
He looked at the black hand and asked. "I am going to study the Great Law of Death. Can you help me with it?"
The black hand gave a thumbs up and began to write. "No problem, but what is the Great Law of Death?"
Yun Lintian was speechless. "There is an essence of the Great Law of Death in the aura you have exuded."
"Like this?" The black hand's aura immediately surged, stirring the surrounding deathly aura.
"Yes. Can you keep it up for me?" Yun Lintian responded.
"No problem." The black hand replied.
Yun Lintian looked at Gui Xuan and handed him a storage ring. "There is food inside. I may be away for a few years. Can you bear with it?"
Gui Xuan thought for a moment and shook his head.
Yun Lintian sighed inwardly. He could understand Gui Xuan's mood. He probably didn't want to be alone again.
However, Gui Xuan slowly raised his hand, and the aura of death in the surroundings suddenly gathered and formed a black pillar of light.
Yun Lintian was stunned by the immense essence of the Great Law of Death that he could feel from it.
He looked at Gui Xuan with astonishment. "Have you fully comprehended the Great Law of Death?"
Gui Xuan furrowed his brow, deep in thought. A moment later, he shook his head and said. "Don't… Understand."
Yun Lintian raised his eyebrows slightly. He remembered that Gui Xuan was the Guardian of the Netherworld, so it should be normal for him to be familiar with the Great Law of Death.
He sighed inwardly. It was truly remarkable that Gui Xuan had such innate talent.
Yun Lintian took a deep breath and said. "Thank you. I will try it now."
As he finished his sentence, Yun Lintian braced himself and stepped into the pillar of light.
"Argh!"
As soon as Yun Lintian touched the black light, he experienced a sudden, intense pain throughout his body. It was as if his spiritual body was about to tear apart. At the same time, his mind was constantly besieged by all the negative emotions in the world.
The Great Law of Death surged like a torrential tide, crashing into Yun Lintian's heart and soul.
Yun Lintian endured the pain and did his best to utilize the power of the Light Pole and the Tree of Life to alleviate his suffering.
After the pain lessened, Yun Lintian focused his mind and attempted to invoke the Great Law of Life.
At that moment, a gentle white light appeared around his body and started to isolate him from the black light.
The next moment, the Beyond Heaven King's Crown appeared on Yun Lintian's head by itself. The dark part of its body constantly absorbed the black light and transferred it to Yun Lintian.
At that moment, Yun Lintian felt like he had become the God of Death. It gave him the feeling that he could control all the dead souls in the entire Netherworld by simply raising his hand.
Yun Lintian's consciousness gradually faded as he entered an enlightened state.
Gui Xuan gazed at Yun Lintian for a moment before waving his hand. At that moment, a black turtle shell appeared above Yun Lintian's head, slowly rotating and serving as a protective layer.
The black hand picked up the pen and wrote something in the book before showing it to Gui Xuan. "Can you take me away from this place later?"
Gui Xuan thought for a moment and nodded his head.
"Thank you." The black hand was happy.
Gui Xuan suddenly raised his hand and wrote the word "Gui" in the air. The word "Gui" vanished and appeared on the back of the black hand.
lightsnοvεl The black hand was stunned for a moment and quickly wrote. "What is this?"
"Friend... Symbol." Gui Xuan spoke slowly.
"But why do I feel strange?" The black hand asked suspiciously.
Gui Xuan ignored the black hand and took out a snack, happily munching on it.
The black hand didn't ask anything else. To it, nothing was important as long as it could leave this place.
***
Three days had passed in the outside world. Qing Tie continued to focus on the bridge without going anywhere.
Buzz—
Just as Qing Tie was about to prepare a simple meal, a black light suddenly shot out from the bridge, soaring straight into the sky.
The entire Netherworld fell into darkness in the next few moments, and all the dead souls could feel their strength slowly rising.
"What's going on?" Qing Tie was shocked.
Just as he was about to report Qing Heng, Sheng Qianyu suddenly appeared in front of the bridge.
"I know it."
