Death

Renxue went towards Spirit Hall's camp. 6 months had passed since she started the trial, so Spirit Hall's forces camped surrounding the Giant Sword Mountain waiting for her to return or act if something unexpected happened.

As she landed, there was already a group of titled douluos, including his grandfather, waiting for her. They had seen the reaction of the Giant Sword Mountain, followed by its disappearance. So they knew that the trial must have finished, and were prepared to receive her.

Qian Daoliu saw his granddaughter's state and frowned. He could sense that she had become stronger but at the same time, he sensed a decrease in her vitality. He instantly knew that she used the Sacrifice technique.

Qian Daoliu approached his granddaughter "Are you fine, Xue'Er?" He asked worriedly.

Renxue couldn't hide her exhaustion, only being able to force smile "It is fine. I completed the trial. It was only that it became harder than what I expected" She explained "I will need to rest some days."

Qian Daoliu nodded "Can you show your results?"

Renxue nodded slowly. She put her hand over her heart, her Angelic Saber surging from.

"Incredible sword, young mistress" a hooded person said, the young mistress part a little sarcastically.

Renxue glanced at the hooded man "Thanks, uncle Bi" He was Bi Ying, one of the elder priests that controlled Spirit Hall's Elder Hall, the 4th. Renxue didn't know much of him, but she didn't have a good feeling from him.

"I'm surprised by the disappearance of the Sword Mountain. Could you enlighten me about it?" he asked with a hidden grin.

"It was a simply aftereffect of the trial completion." Renxue tried to quickly change the subject "I am tired. Let's return, there's nothing more to do here."

Bi Ying turned to where the Sword Mountain stood "Are you sure it was only that? That last glow wasn't holy." He inquired.

"Ying." Qian Daoliu said sternly "Could it be you doubt my granddaughter?"

"How could I?" Bi Ying answered humbly "It was only my curiosity. Sorry for disturb you" He bowed lightly as all his body turned black. He crouched to the ground and disappeared fusing with his shadow, not letting any trace of his existence.

"Return!" Ordered Qian Daoliu. All Spirit Hall's soldiers quickly packed and prepared for their trip to Spirit City.

Renxue followed his grandfather towards a luxurious carriage. A soldier opened the doors for them, both entering it. The carriage started moving instantly. Renxue turned her view towards the hole (Let's meet again, Bai).

**********************************************************************

Very far away, at a world where gods resided, at the Divine Realm. Stood a beautiful woman who seemed no more than 30 years old. She had 6 pairs of wings at her back and a halo over her head. She was the 1st class goddess Angel Goddess.

Her senses instead of observing her surrounding were observing a very far place, a beautiful girl laying in a carriage "Poor child. You will suffer because of him in the future, as his fate is already sealed" she made a sorrowful face, a tear falling at her cheek "These feelings will hurt you, but at the same, they would make you stronger, and you would need this strength to face the future."

**********************************************************************

After 3 days of meditation, Bai opened his eyes at the dark night. He had learned more about his new spirit bone. His body had completely changed, like being reborn, so he needed to be used to it again. It was strange for him, his body was incredible strong and robust, capable of stopping swords with it, but at the same time it kept its flexibility. Making the getting used relatively easy.

The energy around him had lowered in this time due to losing its main source, but at the same time, it became a permanent one. It won't be strong as before but would last even without the spirit bone.

Having waited for 3 days, he was ready to leave. Spirit Hall should have already left the place. At least, if Renxue had kept her promise, but he doubted that she didn't.

Wings appeared at Bai's back, he flapped them as he started to fly away from the hole. He quickly left the hole area and landed. "So...? Who are you?" Bai had already detected that someone was waiting him outside. In front of him stood a hooded man wearing a cape. However, he wasn't worried, by what he could detect, he wasn't his rival at all.

"I knew that something was wrong with that trial." The hooded man took away his hood showing his face. He was quite the handsome man, about 30 years old, with black spiked like needles hair "I am lucky to be able to pay for my disgrace. I will kill you, Ning Bai."

Bai made a strange face as he signaled him, not alerted at all "Who do you said you were?" He seemed to know Bai from before and Bai had the feeling that he had met him, but he couldn't remember where.

The black-haired man clenched his teeth with fury "Y-you!" he shouted angrily "I am Xie Yue!"

"I need more information. That name doesn't make a ring" Bai said resting his hands over his head.

"How could you laugh at me!?" he shouted indignantly "I was part of Spirit Hall team! Part of the Golden Generation!"

"Ah!" Bai finally remembered who he was "You are Hu Liena's brother. You came here to die today?"

"I am not the same as before" Yue said "After my sister's disappearance, I became the more talented of my generation. I trained under one elder priest and even qualify for the Sword God's trials."

This finally made Bai react, he glanced at him. It was true, he had a fragment of the Sword God. It wasn't like he needed them more, but it won't be a bad thing obtaining more.

"I completed all my trials. I will show you my new power!" Two curved half-moon blades appeared at his hands, under him 7 spirit rings appeared, optimal configuration. All his rings shined and started overlapping between each other, forming a bright black one, a tint of gray could be seen from it. Bai knew that this wasn't a natural skill overlapping, it was forced by the Sword God's powers.

"<Sword: Infinite Moons>!" He threw at Bai his blades "Die!" These shined with silver light as spun, they started dividing forming countless blades. The blades spinning created a beautiful picture, it seemed as Bai was targetted by countless mini-moons that were leaving a silver trace. "Hahahaha! You're nothing much without that fucking ant."

Now this made Bai angry. His calm face became a furious one. For trash like him to dare to laugh calling Mayi. Bai dashed forward, he didn't invoke his spirit, he simply charged at the countless blades targetting him.

"You lost your mind before my power!" Xie Yue grinned. That grin didn't last much, it quickly became a shocked face that transformed in terror as his strongest attack was ignored by Bai. Bai's body glowed with white light as the blades that hit him were reflected without leaving any wound.

"H-how could it b-?!" Xie Yue was silenced vomiting blood. Bai already had reached him. Xie Yue was too shocked to even react as Bai's left hand pierced his heart, piercing all his body and surging to the other side.

"I killed your sister and I can say that she was more talented than what you could even aspire" Xie Yue's eyes lost its colors, falling to the ground dying.

Bai swung his left hands like if a sword was, the blood around it, shooting to the ground, leaving Bai's hand completely cleaned from any blood.

Xie Yue's body disappeared turning silver particles, only leaving his two blades behind that became liquid and were quickly absorbed by Bai's body "It seems that a new fragment won't produce any change." Bai sighed.

Bai's face turned serious as he turned to one side "Now to the next trial. Star Dou For-" Bai vomited blood. He could see a dagger piercing his heart, surging from his front. Bai tried to turn his head over. "W-wh-?"

A hooded man was behind him, he had two black daggers at his hands, one of them piercing him. Bai could see the lips under the hood forming a grin "Good night" The hooded man swung his dagger, cleanly cutting Bai's neck, his head falling to the ground, his eyes contorted in shock slowly lost their colors.
