Immortal in The Apocalypse

Xiu Wu looked at Zhu Lin, then at Zheng Jinnan, and said, "Your Shifu is fine. She just needs a rest."

Looking at Zhu Lin’s dazed face, Zheng Jinnan frowned slightly and said, "Then please take care of my Shifu, Elder Brother Xiu Wu."

Xiu Wu nodded to him, and then took Zhu Lin back to her bedroom. Sitting on the sofa, Shao Yuzi watched the two of them going up the stairs and thought: ’Is this person really not the Devil God? But there is a devil core in his Dantian. Unless he is reincarnated into this world with his true soul, he can’t remain as a human after forming the devil core.’

Seeing him sitting on the sofa deep in thought, Zheng Jinnan sat next to him and asked, "Junior Brother Shao, what are you thinking about?"

When he heard his twin brother calling him junior brother, Shao Yuzi glanced at him in dissatisfaction and said, "We were born at the same time, so you can call me by my name."

Recalling the first time they met, Zheng Jinnan looked at Shao Yuzi doubtfully and thought: ’This kid is so weird. He was kind and caring about me, but every time I called him junior brother, he spoke like he just ate an explosive.’

Seeing that Shao Yuzi did not answer his question, Zheng Jinnan asked again: "Yuzi, what are you thinking about? Your face is almost distorted by the frown."

Hearing what he said, Shao Yuzi glanced at him and said, "I was just thinking about that man."

"That man? Are you talking about Elder Brother Xiu Wu?" Zheng Jinnan asked in confusion.

Shao Yuzi nodded and said, "Mhm. He is very suspicious. He is neither human nor devil. Very strange."

Hearing what he said, Zheng Jinnan chuckled and said, "You are thinking too much. Elder Brother Xiu Wu is a human and he is not a suspicious person. He was so nice that he even let my mom and I live in a villa without having to pay rent."

Seeing his brother’s smile, Shao Yuzi sighed and thought to himself: ’I never thought that one day I would see the cold-faced Shuang smiling like this. If he regains his memory in the future, I don’t know how he will react. That would be very interesting to watch.’

Seeing Shao Yuzi staring at him without speaking, Zheng Jinnan stopped laughing, touched his face, and asked, "Is there something on my face?"

Seeing his confused look, Shao Yuzi sighed, shook his head again, and said, "Nothing. Everything is good as long as you are happy."

When Zheng Jinnan was rubbing his face in confusion, Xiu Wu and Zhu Lin were sitting on her bed. Seeing her dazed look, Xiu Wu said, "Lin’er, I still have to help Lao Yang. You should get some rest for now."

After speaking, he waited for Zhu Lin’s answer, but Zhu Lin just sat there motionless. Xiu Wu sighed, helped her lie down, covered her with a quilt, kissed her cheek, and said, "Sleep well."

After a while, Zhu Lin fell asleep, then Xiu Wu got up and left the bedroom. A few hours later, Zhu Lin suddenly woke up from a nightmare. When she was gasping for breath, she looked out of the floor-to-ceiling window and saw a red moon hanging in the dark winter sky.

After taking a few deep breaths, she slowly regained her composure. Aware of her tightly clasped hands, she opened her cold, sweaty palms. She frowned and tried to recall her dream, but failed after trying for a long time. Since she couldn’t sleep, she sat cross-legged on the bed and started cultivating.

At the same time, something happened to the Reincarnation Stone in the Celestial Realm. The heavenly soldiers that were guarding the Reincarnation Stone noticed the turbulent flow of divine energy in the air and hurriedly went to check the Reincarnation Stone.

When they arrived, one of them discovered that a crack suddenly appeared on the Reincarnation Stone. The soldier knew something big was going on and said quickly: "General, look! There are cracks in the Reincarnation Stone!"

The general looked where he was pointing and was shocked to see the cracks growing wider by the second. He knew that they had no power to make decisions, so he looked at the soldiers and said, "Quickly go and report to the Heavenly Emperor and the God of Reincarnation. The rest of you, use the restoration spell now!"

After he gave an order, one of the soldiers turned into white light and flew towards the main palace of the Celestial Realm. At the same time, the general and the remaining soldiers quickly formed hand seals and used their divine energy to repair the cracks in the Reincarnation Stone.

When their divine energy turned into golden light and shot out from their fingertips, the cracks on the Reincarnation Stone gradually slowed down. Although their divine energy is not enough to repair the Reincarnation Stone, it is enough to slow down the cracks until the Heavenly Emperor and the God of Reincarnation arrive.

After a while, most of the soldiers were weakened due to excessive loss of divine energy. The general made a quick decision and said, "Those who can’t hold on, stop and quickly restore your divine energy!"

Following his order, the soldiers who were almost exhausted their divine energy quickly stopped and sat cross-legged on the ground. As they were focusing on restoring their divine energy, the divine energy to slow down the cracks also decreased.

Seeing the cracks widening again, the general gritted his teeth and injected more divine energy to cover the lack of divine energy. When Ling Zhen and Zi Quan arrived, the general’s divine energy was almost exhausted.

The soldier who went to report to Ling Zhen and Zi Quan saw that the general was coughing up blood and hurriedly went to support him. Ling Zhen stood in front of the Reincarnation Stone, looked at Zi Quan, and asked, "High God Zi Quan, do you know what happened to the Reincarnation Stone?"
