"I say there is, then there is," Xu Zimei said calmly.
"Open the gate, and I will make my own choice."
"Demon Lord, you should not have stopped me, nor should you have violated the rules of the Ghost God Realm," a voice from inside the gate replied.
"What rules of the Ghost God Realm?" Xu Zimei chuckled.
"I don't understand them, but my words are the rules."
"In that case, come with me for a journey," the voice from inside the gate responded.
"Night has fallen; no one may appear."
As the voice fell, a fog of gray shrouded the heavens.
Above, the winds and clouds swirled.
The raging wind roared, like a piercing sound reverberating across the firmament.
And then, a gigantic figure appeared in the void.
This figure seemed to flicker, hidden within the black fog.
At times it was visible, at times fused with the raging wind, hazy yet discernible as a creature with a dragon's head, a tiger's tail, and the body of a monster.
