Chapter 645: Chapter 641: Hidden Truth Chapter 645: Chapter 641: Hidden Truth Before Lu Huaming could finish his words, a white jade porcelain vial fell from the Linlang Ring on Shen Luo's wrist.

Lu Huaming quickly grabbed the vial, and upon seeing Shen Luo's silent mouth, immediately understood his intention. He opened the vial, poured out a fragrant elixir pill, and fed it to Shen Luo.

With the Milk Spirit Pill in his stomach, a powerful medicinal force began to circulate around his Dantian, spreading throughout his body.

All the wounds on Shen Luo's body started healing rapidly, and the bleeding stopped in an observable speed. His flesh recovered, but his face remained pale, looking incredibly weak.

After some respite, his expression slightly improved, and he gestured Lu Huaming to step back, slowly standing up straight.

“Brother Shen, are you…” Lu Huaming frowned slightly, refraining from asking aloud, instead communicating telepathically.

“It's all right. It's only natural that using secret techniques comes at a price.” Shen Luo's voice was slightly hoarse in response.

“Sure, but it seems your cultivation from your previous life is far more superior than mine; the backlash didn't seem that strong, though you seem to be suffering quite a bit.” After seeing Shen Luo's condition, Lu Huaming heaved a sigh of relief, communicating through telepathy.

Hearing this, Shen Luo could only respond with a wry smile. He had just realized, not fully understanding, that what he had borrowed was not the cultivation from his previous life, but the cultivation after he traveled through dreams, which originated a thousand years later.

Although he didn't understand the mechanism behind it, he had desperately felt it. The moment the figure overlapped with him, he had the same cultivation as he had in Dreamland for merely three breaths. However, it cost him as much as dying in the dream, consuming nearly thirty years of his lifespan.

However, what he was currently running short of was lifespan, which made the cost unbearably high.

Fortunately, the brief increase in Mana earlier allowed his Great Unsealing Technique to operate rapidly. Assisted by the Milk Spirit Pill, it basically healed the fatal injuries caused by the overuse of his physical body. His current condition was simply the aftermath of a severe loss of Mana.

Shen Luo's gaze sharpened. Borrowing from the effect of the spiritual medicine, rather than losing his composure, he stabilized his breath. He started walking towards Black Phoenix Demon and Gu Hualing, while controlling the Dragon Horn Cone to hover in his palm.

Upon reaching near, Shen Luo with a push of his palm, had the Dragon Horn Cone flying and suspending on Gu Hualing's forehead.

“Gu Hualing, do you remember me?” He asked coldly.

Gu Hualing, pressing a wound on the chest of Black Phoenix Demon, glared back at Shen Luo, her eyes filled with rage.

“It doesn't matter if you don't remember me. Just don't forget the resentment of the members from the Spring and Autumn Pavilion in the Underworld.” Seeing her silence, Shen Luo sneered, acting as if he was about to kill her.

“Stop, don't, don't kill her…” At this moment, Black Phoenix Demon suddenly spoke.

“Humph, if I don't kill her, how will the vengeance of the extermination of the Spring and Autumn Pavilion be accounted for?” Shen Luo paused, his anger building.

“She was forced by me to do all these things… the infiltration into the Spring and Autumn Pavilion… it was against her will.” Blood poured from the mouth of Black Phoenix Demon as she spoke with difficulty.

“What do you mean by that?” Shen Luo asked, frowning.

“Mother, why are you explaining this to him? If he wants to kill, then let him kill! Today, I will follow you to the Netherworld.” Gu Hualing stared at him resentfully and said through gritted teeth.

“I deceived Ling'er… I told her that the one who killed her parents was a senior ancestor from the Spring and Autumn Pavilion. Only then did she agree to infiltrate the Spring and Autumn Pavilion.” Black Phoenix Demon looked lovingly at Gu Hualing and began to explain.

Upon hearing this, Gu Hualing merely frowned, with no surprise in her eyes.

“It seems that you already knew about all of this.” Shen Luo's face turned even colder.

“Yes. Not long after I entered the Spring and Autumn Pavilion, I found out. When my parents died, the senior ancestor was in seclusion, cultivating. The timelines simply didn't match.” Gu Hualing admitted fankly, without refuting.

“If you knew he was not your enemy, why did you do what you did?” Shen Luo's eyes filled with murderous intent.

Gu Hualing clutched her throat, her eyebrows frowning, but she didn't answer.

“So you knew all along, then why… It must be the organization that forced you, right?” Black Phoenix Demon's voice broke off, and then after realizing, she exclaimed.

“No. They just told me that they had a spiritual medicine that can suppress your blood poison…” Gu Hualing shook her head.

“So that's how you got the Green Blood Pill.” Black Phoenix Demon said with a bitter smile.

“Shen Luo, no matter what, it was me who did all this. Kill me if you want, I only ask you to spare my mother. Her lifespan has already been reduced due to the effects of the blood poison, why do you have to stain your hands with such killing?” After remaining silent for a while, Gu Hualing began to plead.

“Since it was her who told you to sneak into Spring and Autumn Pavilion, she is not innocent. Also, what is the organization you mentioned?” Shen Luo asked coldly.

“You… I won't tell you!” Gu Hualing's eyes flashed with anger.

“Ling'er…”

Just as Black Phoenix Demon was about to speak, she began coughing violently again, spitting out lots of dirty blood, staining Gu Hualing's clothes black. The light in her eyes began to fade rapidly.

“Mother!” Gu Hualing held Black Phoenix Demon, crying out in alarm.

“Brother Shen, your hit just now was too powerful. The Dragon's Breath contained in the magical treasure severed most of her vitality, and her spirit is about to collapse.” Lu Huaming said, frowning upon seeing this.

“Mother, don't, don't…” Gu Hualing panicked upon hearing this.

Seeing this, Shen Luo remained silent, shaking his head helplessly.

At this moment, Lu Huaming had an idea. He pulled out a purple talisman with golden designs from his sleeve, and slapped it onto Black Phoenix Demon's Baihui acupoint on top of her head.

The talisman shone, and a golden light surged from it, forming a seven-level pagoda that covered Black Phoenix Demon's body. On top of the pagoda was what seemed like a Buddha Treasure Pearl, emitting a soft golden light, suppressing her Sea of Knowledge and stabilizing her spirit.

“What is this…” Shen Luo asked, puzzled.
