Eternal Hatred Demonic Palace

Soon, Zhou Tong arrived at the Despair Abyss in the central region of the fifth level. This abyss contained a kind of Despair True Qi; any cultivator who came into contact with even a trace of it would have their thoughts fall into a state of "despair."

As Zhou Tong passed through this passage, he casually collected some Despair True Qi and stored it within his Dao Palace. He then went straight to the sixth level of the Nine Abyss Divine Realm—the Despair Plain.

"No wonder it's called the Despair Plain..." Zhou Tong was somewhat speechless as he looked at the plain before him.

Though it was called a "plain," it looked more like a wasteland. It was a stretch of scorching yellow earth without a single plant in sight; no living creature here could see the slightest hope.

"Still, it's time to find the Cracking Heaven Great Emperor!" Zhou Tong said softly.

The Cracking Heaven Great Emperor had been the foremost figure of the evil path during the war between righteousness and evil eight hundred years ago. By himself, he had cultivated the Dao Fruits of the five great evil sects: the Eternal Hatred Dao Fruit, the Melancholy Dao Fruit, the Cracking Heaven Dao Fruit, the Rebellious Demon Dao Fruit, and the Mad Heart Dao Fruit.
