ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom Bai Shijue and Han Shun stood in front of the Forest of Lost Mist. The mist was unusually thick tonight. Even with their Golden core, both Bai Shijue and Han Shun couldn't see the forest.

This was dangerous. Bai Shijue knew that. When the mist was especially thick, the celestial beasts were gathering around somewhere.

Bai Shijue could kill them all with ease, of course. But this wasn't his test. It was Han Shun's test.

He gave Han Shun a side-eye, hoping the young man would get scared a little, and decided to return to the residence. They could always start the trial later when the mist had dissipated.

But contrary to his expectation, Han Shun had a big, arrogant grin on his face. He was confident that he could pass the test easily, "Don't worry, Bai Gege. I will show you that I'm competent enough to accompany you in the immortal realm! I can do it!"

"… okay."

Bai Shijue took out a blindfold from his sleeve and walked behind Han Shun. He covered Han Shun's eyes with the blindfold and patted his back, "You can go now. I will walk right beside you."

"Thank you, Bai Gege!"

The trial to pass the Lost Mist Forest was a difficult one. The person doing the trial must be blindfolded and had to rely on his sense to navigate through the ever-changing terrain. The blindfold was important because the forest layout could trick your sight, so it was better to use your instinct rather than your eyes.

After swallowing Xuanlake and the twins' soul marbles, Han Shun had the third eye that helped him navigate through the Forest of Lost Mist without a problem.

Bai Shijue walked silently right beside him. He was already well prepared in case Han Shun got himself in danger.

"Bai Gege, what would we do once we arrived at the gate to the other side?" Han Shun asked to pass the time.

"I will bring you to my sect, and I will cultivate you until you're on par or even better than me," Bai Shijue replied.

"After that? What will happen next?"

There was no after that. Bai Yunyu knew it. After Han Shun could take the mantle of the sect leader, even ascend to godhood, there was no next chapter.

Because that would be the time when the Breakmeter reached 100%, and Yunyu would complete his transmigration.

He also wanted to know what waited for him in the end. Surely, the reward for an arduous task of completing 15 worlds wouldn't be too shabby, right?

But Yunyu couldn't say that to Han Shun, and he didn't want to demotivate the young man, so he asked, "What do you want to do once you're stronger than me?"

"Um… I—" Han Shun wanted to say that he wanted to marry Bai Gege since they were both immortals at that point. Nothing would separate them. Even death wouldn't come knocking on their door.

It was honestly the thing that kept Han Shun going.

But, he was too embarrassed to say it, and he didn't want to scare Bai Gege.

"I want to stay with Bai Gege forever. Since I'll also be an immortal like you, I can accompany you forever, Bai Gege!"

Bai Shijue smiled and nodded, "Yes, that's good. I'd love to stay and do that."

[Pupa: You're not serious about the last sentence, right?]

[What? About staying in this world?]

[Pupa: Yes, you know you can't stay in a world, right? Once it's completed, it's over.]

[Aish, I know that, Pupa! Why would I want to stay?]

[Pupa: Because from the way you speak, you make it sound like you sincerely want to stay. I'm just warning you not to get too attached with anyone here, especially Han Shun.]please visit pαпᵈα-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

[I know, I was just trying to motivate him! I like him a bit because he has Han Ye Gege's face, but I already told myself not to fall too hard.]

[Pupa:…]

Han Shun walked through the Forest of Lost Mist with no worry. Even Bai Shijue was surprised at how amazingly precise he was in finding the right path. Bai Shijue knew this because he had already memorized the path in the back of his head.

"You're doing great," Bai Shijue commented. "How could you memorize everything in just a month?"

"Hehe, I want to go with Bai Gege as soon as possible, so I walked nonstop to memorize everything. Once I got everything memorized, it's not hard to just follow my instinct!"

Bai Shijue found that hard to believe, but since it worked for Han Shun, he had no right to protest.

"And I think we're finally here, right, Bai Gege?" Han Shun asked as he finally stopped.

Bai Shijue stood right beside him and stared at the gate with an extremely thick mist that blurred the rest of the view. This was the gate to the immortal realm, where the cultivators stayed to cultivate forever in their sect.

There were people who were born to be a cultivator, and most of them had never seen this gate. Only a heavenly immortal, the powerful one like Bai Shijue, or a human who ascended to be a cultivator, could see this gate.

"Impressive," Bai Shijue praised. He pulled Han Shun's blindfold so Han Shun could also see the majestic gate.

"Wah… it's so cool…." Han Shun commented on the spot. The gate was made out of white jade, and there was a placate on each pillar written differently:

'Nothing' on the left pillar, and 'Righteous' on the right.

But if it was grouped as one, it would be.

- Nothing is Righteous. -

It was such a weird sentence for a place where all the righteous cultivators lived. But Han Shun didn't care. Now that he had reached this place, he could live with Bai Gege!

Han Shun turned his head towards Bai Gege, "Bai Gege, does that mean I pass the test? I can live with you, only the two of us, right?!"

Bai Shijue smiled and patted Han Shun's head, "Yes, you passed the test. You can live with me, but we have to prepare—"

CREAAAAK!

Bai Shijue's words were cut short when he heard the voice of a hostile celestial beast near them. Bai Shijue quickly pulled Han Shun close to him and looked around on full alert.

The thick mist today was seriously dangerous because it limited his eyesight. He could see something long was moving around them behind the thick mist, but he couldn't identify the celestial beast.

All he knew was this beast was definitely a high leveled one.

"I should've brought Chinchin with us," Bai Shijue said.

"Wait, Chinchin can help us in this situation?" Han Shun asked.

"Yes, he is a legendary celestial beast. That chipmunk can teleport us into a dangerous situation. But I didn't bring him with us because I'm afraid he'll wander off again."

SHEEEEEEKKK!

"Darn it!" Bai Shijue cursed in desperation. He just heard another high leveled celestial beast coming to them. One was already difficult to deal with during this misty night, but two would make Bai Shijue busy for a while, especially with his true power being limited in this mortal realm.

"Stay near me, Han Shun. Those beasts are dangerous!"
