Yang Realm.

In the daytime, the sun hangs high.

Ahead is an island, and the ship is anchored at the shore.

Li Yin is extremely excited; he’s finally out, and he can feel that this is definitely the aura of the Yang Realm. His body is very comfortable in this environment.

The guide looks fatigued; he doesn’t feel very good about the Yang Realm, especially now that he has a flesh body. He says, "At last, I’m out."

As he speaks, he turns to look at Chu Hao and says, "I should be going now."

"You’re going back?" Chu Hao asks.

The guide nods and says, "Yes, I need to go back. Let’s hope we meet again."

As he speaks, the guide winks at Chu Hao; he seems to have something to say, intentionally avoiding Li Yin.

Taking Chu Hao aside, the guide says, "Be careful of your friend."

Chu Hao’s expression turns cold, "What do you mean?"

The guide whispers, "Your friend may already be dead; he’s not himself anymore."

"That’s nonsense," Chu Hao snaps, unwilling to believe the guide’s ghost stories.

The guide shakes his head, saying, "Whether you believe it or not, I’m warning you. Usually, after using the Deathward Curse, a trace of the contract remains. I can sense yours, but not his."

Chu Hao’s face is ice-cold. He knows Li Yin well, and is very familiar with him. If he weren’t Li Yin, he would have noticed immediately.

The guide looks wary and says, "Moreover, I sense the presence of a Ghost Demon on him."

"Impossible, how come I can’t sense it?"

The guide whispers, "He’s hiding it well. During the time you were cultivating, I accidentally saw your friend worshiping a clay image."

After speaking, the guide seems eager to leave.

The guide boards a small boat, drifting toward the ocean, the ship’s hull shrinking until it disappears from view.

Li Yin approaches, asking, "What was he talking about?"

Chu Hao trusts Li Yin and relays what the guide told him.

Li Yin laughs, "I’m not myself, then who am I?"

"He said you were worshiping a clay image."

Li Yin retrieves a small clay image from his chest pocket, "Is this what you’re talking about?"

The clay image resembles Zhang Lili, molded into a tiny figure, and carried with him.

Li Yin says, "I take it out when I think of Lili, you know, we got married in the world of Illusions. Brother Hao, you can’t really suspect me, can you?"

Chu Hao pats him on the shoulder, smiling, "If I suspected you, would I be saying these things to you?"

Li Yin smiles too, "True."

Li Yin says, "Thanks, brother."

He thought he was a goner, yet somehow managed to come back alive from the Rebirth Realm—it was like a dream.

Chu Hao waves his hand, "We’re brothers, no need for many words."

Li Yin nods.

At this moment, Chu Hao remembers there’s another ghost, whom he brought out from the Rebirth Realm.

Li Yin’s son, Li Yin.

Chu Hao says, "Got a surprise for you."

"What kind of surprise?" Li Yin asks curiously.

Chu Hao opens the Purgatory Gourd, looking for the shadow of Li Yin, only to find he’s gone!

"How come he’s just disappeared?" Chu Hao is baffled.

Unfortunately, the guide has already left; otherwise, he would ask what’s going on.

Could it be Li Yin doesn’t truly exist? Then what did he see at the Hell Gate?

Chu Hao rubs his temples; he simply can’t figure out the truths and falsehoods of the Rebirth Realm, what is real, and what is fake.

Li Yin asks, "Where’s the surprise?"

Chu Hao explains about Li Yin’s situation; Li Yin looks puzzled, saying, "Brother Hao, are you messing with me? Where would I get such a son, who’s older than his father?"

Chu Hao scratches his head, "I’m puzzled too." 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

The Rebirth Realm is truly too uncanny.

But the Reincarnation Blade brought out from inside is real; its coldness and formidable aura are palpable.

Li Yin’s matter is temporarily set aside; if circumstances permit another meeting with the guide, it needs to be inquired about.

The two prepare to leave.

Chu Hao suddenly notices a slender figure near the island.

Standing on the golden beach, looking toward this side, appearing somewhat unreal.

Chu Hao rubs his eyes. Who is he seeing?

It’s the Eye-less Woman again, with her empty sockets, standing under the sun, incredibly eerie.

Chu Hao gasps, she followed out from the Rebirth Realm!

Even for Chu Hao, it’s eerie and terrifying.

"Let’s go."

The two step onto their swords and soar into the sky.

Soon, passing over the sea, they quickly see the land, towns also start to appear.

Li Yin pulls out his phone and excitedly turns it on, "Finally got a signal."

He eagerly makes a call to Zhang Lili.

On the other end, Zhang Lili bursts into tears upon hearing Li Yin’s voice.

Hanging up the phone, Li Yin feels moved.

The two land near a town and realize they aren’t in Huaxia.

It’s full of foreigners with blond hair and blue eyes.

Li Yin, curious, says, "Where have we ended up?"

"Let’s find out."

Entering the small town, Li Yin speaks with a blonde man, then, looking puzzled, says, "We’re in the domain of M Country; the sea we flew over earlier was The Gulf of Mexico and the Arctic Ocean."

They don’t rush to return. The duo finds a restaurant to eat.

Unexpectedly, there’s a surprise in the town—a Huaxia restaurant.

Upon seeing them, the owner welcomes them warmly, saying, "Welcome to my restaurant, Huaxia people get a 50% discount."

Li Yin smiles, "Where is the owner from?"

The owner, grinning, says, "I’m from Sichuan, been in M Country for twenty years."

They order food and watch television.

On the TV is an important news broadcast, speaking in M Country’s language, but Chu Hao and Li Yin manage to grasp some of it.

It reports a Ghost Ship appearing in the Mexico Strait, vanishing in the blink of an eye.

Some speculate it leads to the Netherworld.

As the clip plays, Chu Hao and Li Yin chuckle, isn’t it the Ghost Ship Chu Hao sunk?

The owner serves the food and sighs, "Even M Country is not peaceful, too many ghosts showing up, not enough people to handle it. Recently, they sought help from Huaxia, but even Huaxia is stretched thin."

Chu Hao eats the food, asking, "Are M Country’s ghosts very formidable?"

The owner nods, "Very formidable. Recently, an Evil Ghost appeared in Washington, causing chaos."

"Also, an ancient vampire surfaced, conquering an entire city, turning it into Vampire City."

"Atlanta Ghost Domain is special too; tens of thousands of people vanished suddenly—very eerie."

Unexpectedly, even abroad isn’t peaceful.

Li Yin snickers, "Compared to Foreign Ghosts, what are these things? Those Foreign Ghosts specially afflict us; why don’t they afflict M Country for a change?"
