The light in the lantern suddenly became incomparably intense. The bird-headed, human-bodied tiny figure grew somewhat agitated.
Shen Mu smiled slightly and said leisurely, "At that time, the present you will disappear and become the you who just boarded. You will board this ship again with your companions, bringing Jue Wuchen, and repeat what you have done. How many times have you repeated it?"
The tiny figure in the lantern laughed. "I remember all the cycles..."
"You don't remember."
Shen Mu showed contempt. "If you remembered, I would also remember how many cycles I have been through, and all the unchanging constants would remember too. Yet they have been killed by you time and again. Clearly you do not remember, and neither do they. The only one with some memory is Long Bo, that mad old dragon fused with this ship, but his memory is also incomplete."
The tiny figure in the lantern's pupils contracted sharply. Then it suddenly cackled, like a chicken's crow. "But you will die soon. After thirty-six cycles, you will revive again and be killed by me again!"
The lantern blazed with light. The sun within the lantern's wheel rotated, and an incomparably terrifying fluctuation surged forth, blasting the ground where Shen Mu stood into powder!
The tiny figure in the lantern pounced, only to find that Shen Mu and Zhe Huali had vanished without a trace!
Shen Mu used his teleportation ability, sending himself and Zhe Huali away. He spoke rapidly, "This fellow severed his own cultivation, but he is still as powerful as a god, able to withstand a blow from Lizheng without dying. Let us find a safe place to hide until he reincarnates again! Then he won't remember us..."
Suddenly a beam of lantern light swept over. Everything it passed was vaporized clean. The tiny figure in the lantern laughed. "Hide? I know this ship like the back of my hand. Where can you hide?"
Zhe Huali shook his head. "Cult Master Shen, if we join hands, can we not kill a god?"
Shen Mu was slightly taken aback. He looked at Zhe Huali carefully and shook his head. "Joining hands with Xu Shenghua, I could fight a god. But you are not Xu Shenghua."
Zhe Huali gave a muffled snort, his fighting spirit blazing. "I am inferior to Xu Shenghua? Do not underestimate me!"
