Wuhun: Desert Death on the left hand, the world on the right hand

Bai Zhaoyun's figure flashed through the White Cloud Realm, but he did not sense the presence of Bai Yun and Nasus. His heart tightened, and he immediately went to the Sand Realm through the teleportation array. However, there was still no trace of Bai Yun in the Sand Realm. Bai Zhaoyun frowned, and his figure flashed again, appearing directly in front of Nasus in the Justice Pavilion.

Nasus was sitting in the main seat, holding an ancient book in his hand, his brows slightly furrowed, and he seemed immersed in thought.

"Where is Bai Yun?" Bai Zhaoyun asked hurriedly, with a barely perceptible hint of anxiety.

Nasus raised his head and looked at him in confusion: "What's wrong with you? Why are you so anxious?"

"Where is Bai Yun?" Bai Zhaoyun repeated, with a hint of oppression in his tone.

Nasus was confused by Bai Zhaoyun's sudden questioning. "After you left, Bai Yun deduced the Martial Dao for me in the Secret Realm of Time. It took nine years, and I spent one year in the Secret Realm of Time to digest and perfect the Martial Dao. I just came out not long ago. Later, I heard from Elder Sang that Bai Yun went to the Star Dou Great Forest through the teleportation array. What happened? Something went wrong?"

Bai Zhaoyun did not answer, but his figure flashed and disappeared on the spot.

About half an hour later, he appeared in front of Nasus again, with sharp eyes, as if he could see through everything.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Nasus put down the book in his hand, feeling a little uneasy.

“I need to confirm one thing…” Bai Zhaoyun stared at Nasus and spoke word by word, “Are you Nasus, or… the God of Death—Silas Savoy?!”

"Zhao Yun, what are you talking about?" Nasus looked at Bai Zhao Yun in confusion, totally not understanding why he brought up this matter again. There was a hint of helplessness and impatience in his tone.

"Humph!"

Bai Zhaoyun said nothing, but stared at Nasus closely, his eyes sharp, as if he wanted to see through him. The atmosphere suddenly became solemn.

"I really don't understand! Zhaoyun, what do you want me to do to believe you?" Nasus finally couldn't help but break the silence, with a hint of pleading in his tone.

"Do you dare to come with me to the Baiyun Realm?" Bai Zhaoyun stared at Nasus, his eyes as sharp as a knife, as if as long as Nasus dared to say "no", he would attack without hesitation.

Nasus looked at Bai Zhaoyun's serious expression and knew that he was serious this time, so he stood up and said in a deep voice, "Let's go."

The two came to the teleportation array of the Sand Realm. Bai Zhaoyun watched Nasus step into the teleportation array with his own eyes. After he disappeared, he breathed a sigh of relief and then stepped into the teleportation array as well.

The two came to the secret realm of time.

"Can you tell me now?" Nasus looked at Bai Zhaoyun. He knew that although Bai Zhaoyun looked frivolous at ordinary times, he would never joke about serious matters.

Bai Zhaoyun did not say anything, but just stared at Nasus closely, as if trying to find some flaws in his eyes.

Only after he was sure that Nasus had no guilt in the slightest did he slowly speak: “Do you still remember Li San?”

“Li San from the Holy Spirit Church?” Nasus frowned slightly. “He was Bai Yun’s first believer, and he was won over through the line of faith. What happened to him?”

"He betrayed me!"

“What?!” Nasus was horrified. “How is this possible? He is controlled by the Line of Faith. If he betrays, Baiyun will know it immediately. Baiyun has never mentioned this to me!”

Bai Zhaoyun still stared at Nasus closely, observing every subtle expression on his face. Only after confirming that he was not lying did he tell him about Li San's situation in detail.

When Nasus heard that Li San had escaped the control of the faith line through self-hypnosis, his brows furrowed deeply. He finally understood why Bai Zhaoyun looked at him with such fear.

There was another silence, and neither of them spoke.

"Zhao Yun, I don't know how to prove it... What do you want me to do so that you can believe me?" Nasus looked at Bai Zhao Yun, his eyes full of sincerity and pleading.

Bai Zhaoyun was silent for a long time, his brows furrowed, and he was struggling internally.

"You and I are sworn brothers, and I don't want to make such a big fuss! But, at this moment, it is very serious, so..."

"Zhao Yun, I don't mean to blame you. You don't have to feel any psychological burden. Just continue talking."

"it is good"

Bai Zhaoyun took a deep breath, and finally, as if he had made up his mind, "Nasus, you have to promise me... No, you have to swear on martial arts! First, you will never leave the Baiyun Realm in this life! Second, your realm must never exceed Baiyun. Even if you accidentally exceed Baiyun, you must abandon your cultivation and reduce your strength to below Baiyun. Third, since you have decided not to follow the path of the God of Death, then you..."

"Okay, I promise you!" After hearing this, Nasus agreed without hesitation, without any dissatisfaction on his face.

Bai Zhaoyun wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Nasus. He walked up to Bai Zhaoyun, patted him on the shoulder gently, and a relieved smile appeared on his face.

"Zhao Yun, you don't have to blame yourself. This may not be a bad thing for me. Only by completely abandoning the power of death can I go further on the road of martial arts. Otherwise, I may never reach the pinnacle of martial arts."

"Nasus" Bai Zhaoyun looked at his sworn brother in front of him with guilt, feeling mixed emotions and his eyes slightly red.

“Zhaoyun, you really don’t have to do this. I know you don’t want to do this, but this is the only correct choice.” Nasus smiled cheerfully, “I cherish the friendship between you and Baiyun.” As he spoke, Nasus took out a large pile of memory crystals, “These are all the little things between the three of us, I have recorded them all.”

Looking at the memory crystal in Nasus's hand, Bai Zhaoyun could no longer suppress his inner emotions and tears flowed down his face.

"Nasus, I believe in you. You don't have to..."

“Zhao Yun, listen to me…” Nasus interrupted Bai Zhao Yun and said firmly, “I have a feeling that the power of death will only become a shackle on my martial arts path, preventing me from reaching the ultimate purity! So, you don’t have to persuade me anymore.”

After saying this, Nasus sat cross-legged with a determined look in his eyes: "Zhao Yun, protect me!" As soon as he finished speaking, he began to inject all the death power in his body into the Desert Death God Martial Soul behind him, and then began to peel off the Martial Soul. Since he had witnessed Bai Yun peeling off his Martial Soul before, the whole process went very smoothly.

Three days later, Nasus sat on the ground with a pale face. In front of him, an illusory and transparent Desert Death God's Martial Spirit was floating quietly.

"Zhao Yun, I'll give you this Desert Death God Martial Spirit."

“No, Nasus, you should give this to your disciple Li Chen! After all, I already have the Desert Death God Martial Spirit.” Bai Zhaoyun said resolutely, “By the way, how is your health now? I hope your foundation is not damaged!”

"I'm fine, just a little weak. I will recover after a while of rest. My foundation now lies in the Sand Realm, not the Desert Death God Martial Spirit, so this injury is nothing to me."

"That's good. You should recover here quickly. I will protect you. I have set up a spirit gathering array in this area, which will speed up your recovery." Bai Zhaoyun looked at Nasus with concern.

Nasus said to Bai Zhaoyun, “Well, there is no rush for this. Zhaoyun, you should quickly fuse this Desert Death God Martial Spirit. Your foundation is the weakest among the three of us. If you can fuse this Martial Spirit, you will be able to keep up with Baiyun and I in the future!”

"No, this makes me feel bad. How come I'm a villain, as if I'm here to force you to give up the Desert Death God spirit." Bai Zhaoyun touched his nose awkwardly.

"Zhao Yun, I really don't mean to blame you, really! Don't feel any burden. Besides, you saw that after the Desert Death God's Martial Spirit was stripped away by me, it has begun to dissipate. It will probably disappear in a while. Even if I want to leave it to Li Chen now, it's too late! Hurry up, the air that is talking like this is about to dissipate."

Bai Zhaoyun looked at the Desert Reaper who was about to disappear in front of him, without any hesitation, he stretched out his hand and the Desert Reaper's martial spirit directly merged with him.

With the integration of the Desert Death God's martial spirit, Bai Zhaoyun suddenly felt a powerful force surging into his body. Some hidden injuries left over from the training were all recovered at this moment. Not only that, his soul power also began to grow slowly.

Bai Zhaoyun clearly felt that his soul power was advancing to a higher level. He knew that this was because the integration of the second Desert Death God Martial Soul had enabled his martial soul to evolve, and the original bottleneck was broken at this moment.

This feeling was like a dried-up river that suddenly received continuous rain water and eventually converged into a vast ocean, allowing him to experience an unprecedented sense of fulfillment.
