Invading the Red Dust Base

Chu Muyun had returned.

From the time Jian Changsheng sent out the distress letter until now, a long time had indeed passed. But putting aside the letter's own delivery time, by the time Chu Muyun saw the letter, it was actually already a few days later... Following that, he packed his luggage, boarded the Realm train, continuously transferred through three Domains, and finally arrived at the Red Dust.

Not only Jian Changsheng, but the other Dusk Society members present all had pleasant surprises float up in their eyes when they saw Chu Muyun appear carrying Bai Ye on his back.

"Senior Chu! You're finally here!"

"If it weren't for your ugly handwriting making me search for the Theater House for half a day, I could have arrived a bit faster." Chu Muyun pushed his glasses, his gaze towards Jian Changsheng full of disgust.

Although he was roasted by Chu Muyun right from the start, Jian Changsheng was still cheerful. He looked at the unconscious Bai Ye on his back and couldn't help but ask:

"Has Senior Bai Ye not woken up yet?"

"The nightmares caused by Black Magic are not so easy to dispel cleanly. The ones who laid hands on him should be top-tier Seventh Stages, and moreover, not just one."

"If it were someone else, trying to dispel these Black Magics would probably not be so easy." Chu Muyun glanced at Bai Ye lying on his back and said lightly, "But you guys have good luck, having found me."

"You have a way?"

"Hehehe." Nine of Hearts suddenly chuckled. "Rookie, it seems you still don't know, huh? Our Corpse Shattering Chu was originally a person from the Wuji Domain, and his Path is also somewhat sinister... He has come into contact with too many patients related to witchcraft."

Chu Muyun directly ignored Nine of Hearts and continued,

"I've already dispelled seventy or eighty percent of his Black Magic, the rest can only rely on himself. I heard from 10 of Diamonds that you guys were in a hurry to save Chen Ling and Eight of Clubs, so I directly carried him over... Although he hasn't woken up yet, it probably won't take too long."

Jack of Clubs nodded. "If Queen of Hearts can wake up, our certainty will be even greater."

Right at this moment, Liu Qingyan suddenly spoke:

"Found it."

Everyone looked over simultaneously and saw Liu Qingyan pointing at a certain inconspicuous small flower in the pale sea of flowers, saying firmly, "Lord Chen Ling is inside."

"Isn't that the Red Dust Domain... we just went around to get out, and now we have to go back around?"

"It's not the flower, it's the leaf underneath. The Red Dust Base is right there."

"Leaf..."

Everyone's gaze fell on that leaf simultaneously. Nine of Hearts raised his brows slightly. "A flower protector, huh... This Floating Life Painting is indeed somewhat interesting."

"This should be the Domain of a certain Eighth Stage, right? How should we get in?"

"With so many of us entering this Domain, we will definitely be discovered by its master... We won't be besieged as soon as we enter, right?"

"Leave it to me."

Jack of Clubs raised his hand and took off the black magician's Top Hat on his head, smiling slightly. "Making a living person disappear, I am very good at it."

After saying that, he held the Top Hat and walked in front of Liu Qingyan, gently buckling it on top of Liu Qingyan's head. The moment the hat was put on, Liu Qingyan seemed to be stuffed into the hat, disappearing instantly.

Immediately following were Jian Changsheng, Nine of Hearts, 10 of Diamonds, Chu Muyun, Bai Ye...

Everyone present was stuffed into the Top Hat like Stagecraft by Jack of Clubs. In the fluttering pale sea of flowers, only Jack of Clubs stood alone...

His black magician's robe fluttered in the wind. His fingertips pinched the edge of the Top Hat and unhurriedly buckled it back on his own head.

"Let's bring a little Dusk shock to the Red Dust Base..."

The moment the Top Hat touched Jack of Clubs, he and the hat disappeared simultaneously. In the empty sea of flowers, there was no longer any human figure existing. Only the pale flowers remained, eternally lasting.

...

Red Dust Base.

"Elder Lü."

"Hello, Elder Lü."

"..."

A figure in white clothes passed through the palace corridor. That eight-foot-long ink brush was particularly conspicuous. As he passed, all the Floating Life Painting members and youths wearing blue robes passing by respectfully bowed their heads in salute.

Lü Liangren walked expressionlessly through the crowd. His footsteps echoed under the hollowed-out dome, and finally, he stopped in front of the Grand Relief Gate in the deepest part.

"Are all the Calamities cleaned up?" In the blank Picture Frame of the Grand Relief Gate, an abstract human face emerged.

"Cleaned up ninety percent. There are still some small Calamities hiding very well. It takes time to fish them out one by one. I let the others do it." Lü Liangren paused for a moment,

"However, that biggest Convergence Point in the sky is a trouble."

"Trouble?"

"I can't say it's trouble... It's just that it's too big, and it's hanging right over the Red Dust Main City. Although it's temporarily sealed by your painting, every time I look at it, I always feel... like something will crawl out from inside."

"Calamities below the Eighth Stage shouldn't be able to crawl out in a short time." The Second Hall paused for a moment. "If it's an Eighth-Tier Calamity, as long as the quantity isn't too many, the two of us can also deal with them."

"Then what if, what crawls out is Rank 9?" Lü Liangren's voice was incomparably low.

"Do you really think the Scarlet Heaven Cult summoned the [Xi] Calamity?"

"I don't know... It's just my intuition telling me that that Convergence Point is very tricky."

The Second Hall didn't speak, and the air suddenly fell into silence... After an unknown amount of time, that abstract face finally spoke slowly:

"I hope it's your intuition that has a problem... Otherwise, the Red Dust Domain will be in big trouble."

"Aren't we already in big trouble?"

"That will have to wait until the Sixth and Seventh return to be certain..."

Before the Second Hall finished speaking, as if sensing something, his abstract facial features suddenly paused.

The next moment, in the nothingness, a streak of ink exploded out of thin air, blooming like brilliant fireworks. A figure covered in blood fell to the ground from it.

The Sixth Hall.

Seeing this scene, Lü Liangren's expression changed instantly. He stepped forward and helped the Sixth Hall up, finding that more than half of her body was blown to a bloody mess, and her Aura was also extremely weak.

"Where is the Seventh?!" Lü Liangren frowned and asked.

"In order to cover my retreat, he piled all the defenses on me... and sacrificed himself." The Sixth Hall's face was deathly pale. As if remembering something, she gritted her teeth and spoke,

"That guy was simply too strong... If we didn't use this method, neither of us could have escaped."

"Who?!"

"Lord of Wuji."

The moment the three words "Lord of Wuji" rang out, the air seemed to freeze.

Lü Liangren was stunned for a moment. He abruptly raised his head and looked at the Second Hall on the Grand Relief Gate in disbelief... The Second Hall's abstract face showed no expression, but an extremely oppressive Aura spread out from within that Picture Frame.

"Sixth, tell me everything you encountered going to the Wuji Domain this time... Don't miss any detail."
