After emerging from the hidden space, Lu Yang saw Malthus, Lord of Black Light, and the Void God King searching for the entrance.
"What are you doing?" Lu Yang asked with a smile.
Malthus, the Void God King, and Lord of Black Light let out long breaths, so frightened that they nearly sat down on the fallen stone pillar behind them.
"Where did you run off to?" Malthus asked anxiously. "You scared us to death."
Lu Yang smiled and summoned the Arcane King. "My seventh avatar—and the living clan chief of the Original Divine Realm."
"Arcane King?" Malthus recognized him at a glance.
The Arcane King looked at Malthus in surprise. "You know me? Then why do I have no memories of you?"
Malthus waved his hand, a trace of satisfaction in his eyes. "I inherited most of the Holy Master's memories, so I know you."
A nostalgic expression appeared on the Arcane King's face as he said with some emotion, "The Holy Master died too?"
Knowing that the Arcane King had misunderstood, Malthus briefly explained how the Holy Master had disbanded the Mother Earth Guard and then lured the Eight Great Sky Demon Kings into his own body alone.
"The Holy Master was great, but he was tormented for too long." Malthus pointed at Lu Yang. "The Eight Great Sky Demon Kings originally had no intention of sparing the Holy Master, but they let him go for Lu Yang's sake. Still, the Holy Master's mind had already collapsed."
The Arcane King looked deeply saddened. "The Holy Master and I were once close friends. He said many times that he wanted to solve the problem of Sky Demon possession for all living beings in the universe. I never expected him to truly do it. I still admire him greatly."
