As Xiao Sheng stepped into this world, the large door behind him immediately vanished, as if it had never existed. This indicated that the passage had closed. Unless Xiao Sheng immediately used another hundred units of spatial energy to reopen the door, he would have to stay in this world indefinitely.
As long as he had enough spatial energy, he could leave at any time. Without any worries, Xiao Sheng felt very relaxed. He lifted his head and looked around. The night was deep, the snow was white, and the weather was quite cold. It seemed that it was the height of winter in this world.
Xiao Sheng found himself on a wide and flat street. On both sides of the street were wine shops, restaurants, and various stores. One could imagine that during the day, this place would be quite bustling and lively. However, it was now late at night, and most of the shops were closed. Therefore, the street was empty and very quiet.
"Hmm~ This is the world of 'Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty'?"
Murmuring to himself, Xiao Sheng casually waved his hand and took out a small mirror from the storage space of his bracelet, holding it up to look at himself. The reason for this action was that every time he entered a parallel world, his age, physique, and appearance would change to some extent. It seemed that the Kala Temple automatically made these adjustments to help Xiao Sheng better adapt to the environment of the current world.
In the mirror, the changes this time were not significant. Generally, he still looked like the original Prince Fourteen. However, the contours of his face had become much softer. The originally sunny aura had been significantly diminished, replaced by a handsome appearance like the bright moon. At this moment, anyone who saw him would surely give a thumbs up and praise him as a handsome young man, surpassing Pan An and Laozi in beauty.
Although it was a bit strange, this transformation did not hinder his actions. So Xiao Sheng was not bothered by it. He put away the mirror and walked casually. After a short while, he saw a water channel about ten zhang wide, stretching straight ahead.
The water channel and the street intersected, forming a "cross" shape. The intersection of this cross was a large stone bridge in the distance. Looking over, he saw that there were statues of galloping horses on both ends of the bridge, vivid and magnificent.
Without hesitation, Xiao Sheng knew that this was the Leaping Horse Bridge in the capital city of Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty. The demonic treasure he wanted, the Evil Emperor's Relic, was deeply related to this bridge.
At this moment, a man and a woman were standing face to face on the bridge.
The man was dressed in a scholar's robe, wearing a brocade coat, with a tall and straight figure, looking very elegant. The woman had a graceful and slender figure, with a high bun and a simple but elegant appearance, exuding a unique charm that was both noble and seductive. Without a second glance, Xiao Sheng immediately recognized them as the top experts of the demonic sect in this world—Evil King and Yin Empress.
Clapping his hands together, Xiao Sheng immediately released a ripple of energy that quietly spread out, covering a radius of several hundred meters. In this "Perception Network" constructed with "Perception Color," all the movements on and around the Leaping Horse Bridge were under his surveillance.
Each invisible thread of the Perception Network, once it enveloped the stone bridge, began to vibrate at a fixed frequency. This reaction indicated that although the Evil King and Yin Empress were standing still, looking like old friends meeting, they were actually engaging in a fierce mental battle. If either of them showed a weakness, the other would immediately exploit it, causing blood to spill.
The confrontation was a matter of life and death, and both sides were extremely serious and focused, giving it their all without any carelessness. However, feeling the frequency of the mental waves, Xiao Sheng was startled and then couldn't help but burst into a grin. He covered his mouth to suppress his laughter, but deep in his throat, he still couldn't stop the low, chuckling sounds. Finally, he squatted down and pressed his twitching belly, feeling a sharp pain.
It was too ridiculous, so ridiculous that Xiao Sheng couldn't help but laugh. The two people on the bridge had serious expressions, with postures that were either light and graceful, affectionate, elegant, or seductive. At first glance, they seemed to be the real deal.
Unfortunately, in the Perception Network, their true strength was completely exposed. In Xiao Sheng's eyes, although they had勉强reached the "Three Flowers Gathered at the Top," they were at most in the Disturbing Spirit Realm, and even in the middle stage of that realm, which was the second level of the Grandmaster realm.
To be honest, the Evil King and Yin Empress, by the standards of the Great Hao Dynasty, were not as strong as the leader of the Yi Qi Gate in the Eastern Wasteland, Niu Lao. At most, they were slightly stronger than the watered-down Grandmaster Bai Li Kun Luo.
With such weak strength, they were putting on a grand and transcendent demeanor of great masters, creating a huge and ridiculous contrast. It was like two kindergarten children pretending to be adults. No wonder Xiao Sheng couldn't stop laughing until his belly hurt.
Of course, the Evil King and Yin Empress on the bridge couldn't feel the ridiculousness caused by this contrast. After a while of evenly matched combat, they both stopped simultaneously.
Yin Empress smiled sweetly and said in a coquettish voice, "Zhi Xuan, we haven't seen each other for many years. Why are you just staring at me tonight? Don't you have any heartfelt words to say to me?"
Evil King coldly replied, "If you're not going to make a move, then get lost."
Yin Empress laughed like a silver bell, "Sigh~ From the past to the present, have I ever not listened to you? Since that's the case, I'll leave." With a light step on the bridge, she floated up and leaped away, disappearing into the night in the blink of an eye.
Evil King snorted and turned his back, placing his hands on the stone railing of the bridge, looking down at the flowing water. He said coolly, "Yue Shan, come out. Hiding is not your style."
As soon as he finished speaking, a rough and hearty laugh echoed. A tall and imposing figure, exuding a domineering aura, appeared from the street on the other side of the bridge, striding up the stone bridge slope and stopping abruptly. His eyes glowed fiercely as he coldly shouted, "Good! Since you've come to me, you've saved me a lot of trouble."
On the other side of the bridge, Xiao Sheng nodded in agreement. Since he had already memorized the important information about this world from the Kala Temple, he knew that this person, who seemed to be Evil King's rival and mortal enemy, Overlord Yue Shan, was actually one of the two main characters of this world, Xu Zining, who, along with the other main character, Kou Zhong, was known as the "Twin Dragons."
Xu Zining and Yue Shan were completely different in character. However, this "Yue Shan" exuded a domineering aura and was as sharp as a blade. If Xiao Sheng hadn't known his true identity, he would have thought this person was really Yue Shan. To play a dragon like a dragon, a tiger like a tiger, and a rabbit that can't be chased by a dog—that was true acting.
Evil King still gazed at the river below, suddenly sighing deeply and murmuring to himself, "Sigh~ How did Xiuxin die?"
"Yue Shan" shuddered and sneered, "So much talk. You should know what you've done. Let's fight! Let me see how powerful your Immortal Seal Technique is."
Evil King looked up at the moon and said coldly, "The Sun Replacement Technique is just a child's play. If you hadn't come to Chang'an, you might have had another chance to lose to the Heavenly Blade."
Without waiting for "Yue Shan" to respond, Evil King suddenly moved, quickly closing in on his enemy. He spread his hands and activated his signature technique, the Immortal Seal Technique, launching a full-force attack.
Evil King's movements were both fast and strange, combining his hand techniques with the flow of his internal energy. His mind and intention were in harmony, his intention and energy were in harmony, and his energy and strength were in harmony. His inner and outer self were perfectly integrated, unaffected by any changes, while simultaneously forming a unique frequency that could interfere with the enemy's internal energy, causing various hallucinations.
The real physical attacks and mental attacks were launched simultaneously, creating a blend of reality and illusion. This was the typical technique of a Grandmaster in the Disturbing Spirit Realm. From a distance, Xiao Sheng knew that at this moment, "Yue Shan" must have seen countless illusions of Evil King surrounding him from all directions. Distinguishing the real from the fake was a major challenge. If he couldn't tell the difference, "Yue Shan" would likely be killed in an instant.
In a split second, "Yue Shan" roared and punched straight ahead. At the same time, he defended himself mentally, ensuring that the illusions did not interfere with him. This was also a technique of a Grandmaster in the Disturbing Spirit Realm. However, he could only passively defend and counter, showing that his cultivation was lower than Evil King's.
In an instant, their fists and palms clashed, sending a gust of wind that scattered the snow within a three-step radius, forming an invisible spherical space. They fought at close range, attacking and retreating quickly, like walking on a tightrope in the sky, where a slight misstep would mean death. The battle was extremely dangerous.
In a breath, they had already faced life and death several times. Suddenly, both sides simultaneously used subtle techniques, setting up multiple layers of traps to lure the enemy into their traps and strike a fatal blow. However, they also used their keen eyesight to dismantle the traps, eventually leading to a situation where they both took a heavy hit from each other.
