I Am Loaded with Passive Skills
Chapter 3544 - 1738: The Illusionary Disciple Toys with the Lord, Technique Evil Seeks Permission from the War Ancestor

"Ai Gou!"

"Ai Gou, you actually launched a covert attack!"

"Elder Sang, oh Elder Sang, you died so miserably, so miserably!"

"I fought my way through the Eighth Palace to reach today, all for the hope that one day I could save you from depths of despair and fiery torment. But I never imagined... wah!"

Lord Shou cried!

Cried bitterly!

He cried so hard he hiccupped, tears and snot mixed into the clear water, yet that disgust could not be purified away no matter what.

Such exaggerated reactions caused everyone watching to immediately feel dubious.

"Isn't this a bit too much?"

There's no greater grief than a dead heart.

Or rather, regarding Lord Shou, the phrase "a barking dog seldom bites" might be more apt.

In any case, if Sleeveless Saint Servant truly died, Lord Shou shouldn't be reacting like this. He should be rushing out of the Dead Sea to fight a battle with Lord Cang Sheng?

"Lord Shou, helpless?"

Before ascending the Sacred Mountain, before witnessing Lord Shou display his various abilities, indeed some in the five regions might still think this question was valid.

Number One Sword Deity?

Second-in-command saint servant?

Tower Master of the First Pavilion in the Sky?

But the youth loves reputation, often boasts, merely outward appearances.

Now, truly not many believe that Lord Shou could link with "helpless," to say he's "all-powerful" would be closer to reality!

"Oh oh, Elder Sang, you died so miserably..."

Lord Shou continued wailing like a ghost, clutching his chest, agony made it difficult to breathe:

"If I'd known you'd die so miserably, back in the Eighth Palace, why insist on resisting? Biting your tongue to die would've been better!"

"This lingering another year under torment in the Dead Sea, in the end, still dying wretchedly under the arrow, you're silly, too silly!"

"Had you died a year earlier, you might already be a one-year-old baby by now..."

Strange!

Too strange!

Zhong Yuanzi finally affirmed that his earlier feeling of strangeness wasn't an illusion, Xu Xiaoshou's appearance indeed seemed bizarre.

He was too weak...

Even Ai Cangsheng sensed something was amiss somewhere.

Yet at this moment looking this way, Sleeveless Saint Servant wasn't some apparition, but truly was a "person"!

His form, his spirit, his intent...

His somewhat unstable Fire-type Upanishad, his skilled and usual Sleeveless, Red Scorched Hand, his breathing, aura, pulse...

His basic structural features of the life form, the myriad large and small rules of the Way of the Heavens and Holy Path surrounding him...

"It's Sleeveless!"

What is referred to as, Eyes of the Great Path?

To glance once, seeing through appearances to perceive essence, analyzing one's very existence with the most basic rules, that is Eyes of the Great Path.

This results in the five regions' people, no matter who, in Ai Cangsheng's eyes, all composed of a unique "Great Path Vein Map," which can also be called "Life Diagram."

"Life Diagram, impossible to depict!"

Ai Cangsheng knew this truth from beginning to end.

The Life Upanishad could not perfectly replicate an identical life form, Xu Xiaoshou couldn't achieve it either.

Every stroke on the diagram, the lightness or heaviness of the force, the faintness or intensity of the aura, would cause the external presentation of the life form to vary.

Perhaps if the force was too heavy, he would transform from a normal life form into a diseased body;

Perhaps if the force was too light, in his external presentation, the hair would drop off with a rustling sound...

It's beyond absurdity!

Life Diagram, a thing even the world's most skilled artists cannot replicate.

Moreover, everyone's Life Diagram is constantly changing, though they are largely similar, but no trace can be found.

Xu Xiaoshou's Super Taoization of Life Path cannot perform such a defying act of "creating man," and he surely wouldn't dare.

"It's Sleeveless!"

Ai Cangsheng firmly believed his judgment.

He sensed it was strange, actually from the moment Zhong Yuanzi detected something off, he too realized something seemed strange somewhere.

But he still released the arrow, unwaveringly.

Among his arrows, there's one called "Anchor Origin Arrow," as long as it penetrates a clone, it can trace through homogenous power to locate the demi-saint's true body.

This was specifically shot out upon "seeing" a genuine "semi-saint person" nurtured inside Sleeveless.

He was even meticulous to this extent, knowing Sleeveless surely had a short time of sanctification, it was possible under Xu Xiaoshou's massive resources he sculpted a semi-saint incarnation to deceive him.

Actually, no.

This truly is Sleeveless's true body.

Because the arrow couldn't anchor onto his true form, which means...

"I, am deceiving myself."

A sense of having deceived himself arose, for Xu Xiaoshou also controlled the Path of Guidance, Ai Cangsheng had experienced a similar trick from Dao Qiongcang.

He held no fear.

Guidance is not invincible, what is seen is reality.

Just as Eyes of the Great Path, never deceiving because it comes from Lei Xiaoxiao.

"Sleeveless, surely doomed."

...

"Ah Elder Sang, oh Old Sang, ah ah ah——"

Xu Xiaoshou cradled his head, bent forward and shook his head.

His face was covered with bulging veins, overcome with grief and fury.

A bit comical, a bit clownish, as if this is the essence of Lord Shou after peeling away the disguise?

After all, if everyone could guess his "exaggeration" might be false, perhaps the matter itself might be true then?

In the world's eyes at this moment...

Lord Shou and Hallmaster Dao seemed practically indistinguishable in position!

His trickery was truly not beneath Hallmaster Dao!

"Dress up as God, play the devil."

Ai Cangsheng from Southern Region coldly sneered, just as he set down the Evil Sin Bow.

In the scene, Xu Xiaoshou who continued jabbering and yelling was interrupted by a cold shout onsite:

"Xu Xiaoshou, what kind of dog barking are you making?"

This scolding was undeniably harsh!

Actually, it should be said that it was commonplace.

For the current five regions, those with characters wouldn't scold in this way, those without couldn't compete in scolding with Lord Shou, those capable wouldn't scold, and those incapable wouldn't dare to scold...
