Calamity of Tomorrow
Chapter 591 591: 590 Last Dharma Abnormality Day

Facing a stream of deliberately tempting information, Zhou Bai, for safety's sake, didn't even glance at the titles above and focused entirely on gathering the blueprints for the Primordial Spirit Armour.

Although Xuan Nu was curious to see what was written, under Zhou Bai's operation, the information flashed past their consciousness so quickly that it wasn't possible to make out any content.

Soon, a blueprint appeared in front of them. It was a magical weapon, or rather, a blueprint for Primordial Spirit Armour.

Countless refining steps, material choices, and design aspects flashed through their minds, deeply imprinting in their memories, and in the next moment, transformed into a bizarrely shaped sword before their eyes.

The sword, twisted like bent steel rebar, had a blade filled with irregular, palm-dug indentations, resembling countless corpses.

Inside the indentations, one could see tiny holes, densely packed and enough to give one goosebumps, and if one kept looking, it seemed possible to see dried blood stains, blinking eyes, and shattered flesh... one could even hear various wailing sounds emanating from them.

The hilt was covered in countless, entangled, twisted patterns that formed a spiral, seeming to continuously rotate with the change of view, almost sucking one's consciousness upon a single glance.

Zhou Bai: "What the hell is this?"

"How beautiful," said Xuan Nu. "I want it! I want this!"

The next moment, they both saw the name of the sword—End of Dharma Heaven Deformed Sword.

Zhou Bai's gaze sharpened, "We've drawn something extraordinary."

When their consciousness returned to the Material World, Zhou Bai and Xuan Nu were still immersed in the shock brought about by the blueprint of the End of Dharma Heaven Deformed Sword.

Zhou Bai kept recalling the contents of the blueprint; the more he remembered, the more incredulous he felt.

"End of Dharma Heaven Deformed Sword. Why would her consciousness draw the blueprint of such a thing?" Zhou Bai suddenly turned his head and looked at Xuan Nu beside him, thinking, "Could this woman... have already become deformed?"

Christina sensed Zhou Bai's suspicion and immediately said, "Is this woman another Pei?"

Zhou Bai also cast a doubtful glance at Xuan Nu but shook his head after a moment, "She definitely has issues. But whether she is another Pei..."

While Zhou Bai was contemplating this, there was a loud bang as the door was opened and Sun Jingping, summoned by Xuan Nu, FINally arrived.

He looked at Zhou Bai with a displeased expression and said, "Zhou Bai? What are you doing? Are you planning to attack a student of the Evil Sect?"

Zhou Bai glanced at Xuan Nu next to him, realizing today was not the time to continue their conversation. After all, even if he could defeat Sun Jingping, it would surely cause a significant disturbance, attracting the attention of the heavenly court.

'Forget it, the most important thing right now is to win the Daluo Heaven Doctrine Debate. I'll come back and thoroughly investigate this woman's issues and treat her psychological problems after that.'

'I hope not to encounter another Pei.'

Thus, Zhou Bai looked at Sun Jingping and said, "Are you friends with her? She clearly has psychological issues, and you don't know about it? Have her stop her recent cultivation, seek some serious guidance and counseling to relieve the pressure, otherwise, she might become twisted and deformed."

After advising Sun Jingping, Zhou Bai didn't say much more and left Xuan Nu's room, planning to return after the Daluo Heaven Doctrine Debate was over.

Watching Zhou Bai's retreating figure, Xuan Nu slowly opened her eyes, her mind still recalling the blueprint of the End of Dharma Heaven Deformed Sword that had imprinted itself in her mind.

"What on earth is 'greedy steel'?"

She furrowed her brow, then shook her head, looking at Sun Jingping, "Now is not the time to think about these things. No matter what, the most important thing is your duel with Zhou Bai tomorrow."

Sun Jingping looked at Xuan Nu and said, "I simply can't be his match, I can't even break through his Red Heavenly Armor. Are you sure he really is a deformed being?"

Xuan Nu laughed, "You don't need to agree to him, you just need to prove that he is a deformed being. I've just thought of a way."

As she spoke, she extended her finger and gently slid it across her fingertip. A large amount of blood flowed down, landing on the ground, where it seemed to move and coalesce with a life of its own, almost as if it wanted to reform into a new Xuan Nu.

Xuan Nu said, "This is my deformed blood. Tomorrow, use it in conjunction with your Yama Golden Body to confirm Zhou Bai's identity as a deformed being."

During their conversation, the deformed blood took human shape, wrapping around Sun Jingping like a woman, and finally, amid Sun Jingping's grimacing, it shot directly into his mouth and burrowed into his body.

Xuan Nu smiled faintly, "Next, we'll do this..."

...

On the other hand, on his way back, Zhou Bai repeatedly went over the blueprints of the End of Dharma Heaven Deformed Sword in his mind, feeling increasingly creeped out the more he looked at them.

"This thing requires at least third-grade Greedy Steel, along with a ninth realm deformed life to be completed. The more powerful the deformed life used, the stronger the sword that is forged."

"But where can I find a ninth realm deformed life… unless..."

Zhou Bai's gaze sharpened, suddenly recalling something, "Does the Abyss Nether Dragon Armor count? If it does, then..."

Christina exclaimed in shock, "Are you sure you want to do this? Are you confident?"

Zhou Bai replied, "Right now, I definitely don't have much confidence. I still need to properly analyze and study this blueprint."

Zhou Bai reflected on the powers of the immortals and gods, remembering how he was restrained within the space-time of Daluo Heaven, and felt waves of pressure wash over him.

'I must find every possible way to become stronger.'

Shortly after returning to his quarters, the Twisted Shadow also returned, and then Zhou Bai once again pulled Wentian down for cultivation.

After a night of rigorous cultivation, through devouring destinies and sacrificing Dharma Saint Relics, Zhou Bai's Primordial Spirit power increased again, reaching 7811.

...

On the third day of the top ten competition, billions of humans got up early, coming to the projections, excited and anticipative of the new day's matches.

The half-month-long spectacle of Daluo Heaven's discussion of Dao was probably the grandest assembly humans had seen in a century, gradually transforming into an entertainment that spread across all of humanity.

The top ten contestants, hot favorites of the discussion of Dao, Zhou Bai, Xiang Haocu, Zhao Yue, Jue Ji, Shi Fa... Each a human genius, and their employed Dao techniques, the armors they wore, the weapons they used, all became topics of discussion at every meal.

Watching day after day these genius cultivators, whom they could never touch, fight in the arena, greatly boosted human morale and relaxed the tense nerves of countless people.

Zhou Bai had also arrived at the arena, looking over today's five matches, thinking to himself, "So, my match with Sun Jingping is the third one today?"

In the stands, Xuan Nu stared in Zhou Bai's direction, her body trembling uncontrollably, "It's coming, it's finally coming, all my grievances with Zhou Bai, all settled today."
