In this desolate land that has been tyrannized by spiritual power to the point of horror, the strong wind seems to be carrying the sharp blade of World-Ending Power, roaring across the landscape with a devastating force.

The sound of the wind was as sharp as the howling of ghosts and wolves, and the sharp sound waves cut through the sky, raising dust and gravel all over the sky, as if they were being thrown wantonly by the invisible force of Primordial Chaos.

They collided and rubbed against each other, making crackling sounds, adding a thick layer of coldness and chill to the already suffocating and depressing atmosphere.

At this moment, Human Emperor Reincarnated Body and Ren Xiaoyao are in a tense and fierce confrontation. The spiritual energy around the two people is like a raging tide colliding with each other, forming an invisible energy field that constantly distorts the air.

However, such a tense and tense situation was instantly broken by a very strange and uninvited guest.

The mysterious Black Eye came again without any warning. It was suspended in mid-air, and its whole body was tightly wrapped in thick black mist like ink.

The mist billows endlessly, like a turbulent black ocean that hides countless dangers, and the cries of countless resentful spirits can be faintly heard from it.

This cry was shrill and shrill, as if it came from Depths of Chaos when the universe was Primordial Chaos Initial Opening, carrying all the pain, despair and resentment in the world since World Creation.

Every cry is like an extremely sharp needle, piercing directly into the depths of the human heart, intertwining into an invisible but indestructible web of fear, covering everything around it.

This shrill sound wave seems to have a weird Demonic Power that penetrates the soul. Anyone who hears it will feel an unstoppable chill deep in their hearts. The blood in their body seems to be frozen in an instant, and every inch of skin is covered with dense goosebumps.

Every cry seemed to whisper the most tragic, desperate, and heartbreaking story in the world, making the surrounding air seem to be infected by this breath of despair, becoming bitingly cold, as if one were in an ice cellar.

The originally proud and confident face of Human Emperor Reincarnated Body was completely shrouded in terror the moment he caught a glimpse of Black Eye. His eyes widened in horror, and his originally bright eyes were now filled with endless fear, as if he had witnessed the most horrifying scene in the world.

The blood on his face quickly faded like a tide, leaving only a lifeless pale color. His lips trembled violently uncontrollably, and it was difficult to even utter a complete sentence. "This... what on earth is this! Why does it appear at this time!"

His legs seemed to have had all their strength drained away, and were so weak that he could barely support his body to stand, so he could only subconsciously step back.

His steps were staggering and panicked, and each step hit the ground heavily, splashing up layers of thick dust, as if he wanted to lift up all the despair on the earth.

His mind was blank and chaotic. As Reincarnated Human Emperor, he had always believed that he had supreme authority and power, controlling the power of life and death in the world, but he never expected to encounter such a strange, terrifying and unknown existence beyond imagination.

At this moment, the fear in his heart was like an extremely ferocious Primordial Giant Beast, swallowing him up completely with overwhelming force, causing him to fall into an abyss of extreme panic and from which he could not extricate himself.

Ren Xiaoyao also did not dare to let down his guard at all. He stared at Black Eye closely, his eyes were full of vigilance and perseverance.

He held the long sword tightly in his hand, his knuckles turning white from the excessive force, as if he was trying to bury the sword's hilt deeply into his palm.

The Golden Spiritual Energy on his body began to circulate again in this extremely tense atmosphere, forming a vague protective halo on his body.

This halo is soft but contains powerful power, as if to tell the mysterious Black Eye that he will never give up or surrender easily.

Ren Xiaoyao's eyes were always locked on Black Eye, not daring to deviate in the slightest. He knew that this pair of Black Eye was by no means an ordinary thing. Both of its appearances were so strange and unpredictable that they must be inextricably and intricately connected with this dispute.

However, he racked his brains and couldn't figure out what the true purpose of Mysterious Being was.

Ren Xiaoyao is very clear in his heart that he is facing an extremely dangerous unknown existence at this moment. If he makes a slight mistake, he may fall into the abyss of eternal destruction, his body will be broken into pieces, and his soul will be scattered.

Therefore, he must force himself to stay calm, let his thinking be as clear as the surface of a calm lake, and try his best to find countermeasures and find a glimmer of hope in this chaotic situation.

Black Eye was completely indifferent to their reactions, as if nothing in the world could attract even the slightest attention from it.

The black mist surged more and more violently, as if it was going to dye the entire world into pure ink, plunging the world into eternal darkness and silence.

Suddenly, without warning, it stretched out several thick tentacles made of condensed mist. These tentacles were like Ancient Giant Python that had awakened from Dark Abyss. Their movements were fast and full of aggression.

They flew through the air at extremely fast speeds, leaving only blurry and indistinguishable afterimages, making it almost impossible to catch their traces.

In the blink of an eye, these tentacles came to Human Emperor Reincarnated Body, completely covering him within the attack range, like an airtight Net of Death.

Human Emperor Reincarnated Body screamed in horror, the voice full of despair and fear. He waved his arms wildly and desperately, trying to resist the attack of these terrifying tentacles.

Streams of residual spiritual power shot out from his hands, carrying his last hope and struggle. However, these spiritual powers were like mud cows entering the sea, and were mercilessly swallowed up by the black mist in an instant. Not even a ripple was stirred up, and they did not play any substantial role.

His resistance seemed so small and weak in front of Black Eye. Fear had completely taken over his body and mind, making his movements panicked and unorganized, like a headless fly that was lost in the dark and stumbling around.

"Help... save me!"

Human Emperor Reincarnated Body screamed in despair to Ren Xiaoyao at the top of his lungs, his voice full of endless pleading. His eyes were full of fear and helplessness. At this moment, he was like a child who had lost his way in the endless dark abyss, placing all his hope on Ren Xiaoyao.

However, Ren Xiaoyao was not dazzled by the cry. He knew very well that Black Eye was weird and powerful, and taking action rashly would probably put himself in a more dangerous and irreversible situation.

He suppressed the anxiety in his heart and stared at every subtle change in the battle situation, trying to find out the flaws in Black Eye's attack or the true intention hidden behind it.

Ren Xiaoyao quickly weighed the pros and cons in his mind. He understood that acting impulsively at this moment was undoubtedly seeking death and would only put himself in a desperate situation.

Only by waiting for the right opportunity and giving Black Eye a fatal blow in that fleeting moment can we turn the tide and win the final victory in this battle.

In the blink of an eye, the tentacles had tightly entangled Human Emperor Reincarnated Body like a tough steel rope. His struggle became weaker and weaker under this powerful restraint, and his breath became more and more sluggish.

Immediately afterwards, Black Eye exerted force violently, leading Human Emperor Reincarnated Body towards the ever-expanding crack in the broken void at extremely fast speeds.

The light in the crack flickers uncertainly, sometimes as bright as the scorching sun during the day, and sometimes as dim as the dead silence of the night, as if it is a mysterious passage connecting endless unknowns and dangers.

There were bursts of sharp sounds coming from the cracks, which were the sounds of space breaking, as if the world was groaning in pain and crying in despair.

The aura emanating from this crack is terrifying, as if it is the entrance to another terrifying world. Once you step in, there is no way back. What awaits you will be endless darkness, despair and destruction.

Just when Black Eye was about to step into the crack, Ren Xiaoyao suddenly moved.

He took a deep breath and poured the last trace of spiritual power in his body into the long sword without reservation. This trace of spiritual power was his last light of hope and all his Source of Power.

He shouted loudly, and his voice was like the sound of a great bell, with endless majesty and momentum, echoing in this Barren Land for a long time, making the surrounding air tremble and vibrate.

Following this loud shout, a dazzling Golden Sword Qi roared out, like a dazzling meteor piercing the vast night sky, aiming directly at Black Eye.

Wherever Sword Qi passed, the air was instantly torn apart, making a harsh scream, as if the space was wail- ing in pain under the impact of this powerful force.

This Sword Qi condenses all the strength and determination of Ren Xiaoyao. He understands that this may be his last chance to stop Black Eye. He must go all out and make no mistakes, otherwise the world will fall into endless darkness.

Black Eye felt an unprecedented deadly threat. The thick black mist surged crazily like Ancient Ferocious Beasts who was completely enraged, as if it wanted to swallow and crush the entire world.

It reacted quickly, branched out a thick tentacle, and stabbed Golden Sword Qi.

The surface of the tentacles is covered with strange black lines. These lines shine with a dark light, as if they are mysterious symbols from the abyss, exuding a creepy and bone-chilling aura.

When Golden Sword Qi collided with Black Tentacles, it was like two stars violently colliding in the vast universe, erupting with a deafening roar.

The sound was so loud that it seemed to shake the whole world to pieces and turn it into powder. The golden light and the black mist intertwined, eroding and confronting each other, forming a huge Energy Vortex.

In the whirlpool, powerful forces raged mercilessly, ruthlessly sucking the surrounding dust and gravel into it and turning it into powder, as if these substances had never existed in this world. Huge cracks appeared on the ground, spreading like spider webs in all directions, bottomless, as if they were terrifying passages leading to the abyss of hell.

Under the impact of this powerful force, the surrounding ancient rocks collapsed and shattered, turning into powder. They were carried away by the strong wind and flew away, disappearing into the vast darkness without leaving a trace.

Ren Xiaoyao gritted his teeth, and large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, dripping on the dry ground under his feet. It was evaporated in an instant, leaving only a small trace of moisture, as if it was a witness to his hard work.

He tried his best to maintain the power of Sword Qi, with a look of perseverance on his face and an unyielding light in his eyes, like a lighthouse in the darkness.

He knew the key to this battle and must not retreat at all. Once he retreated, it would mean failure and the world would fall into endless darkness and despair.

And Black Eye was not to be outdone, constantly injecting power into its tentacles, trying to resist Sword Qi's attack. Its flickering light in the darkness seemed to tell its unwillingness and anger, as if to declare to Ren Xiaoyao that it would not be easily defeated.

Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, Ren Xiaoyao suddenly felt a slight fluctuation in the spiritual power in his body.

His heart shuddered, and he realized that his spiritual power had been exhausted to the limit, and his body had reached the edge of endurance. Every inch of muscle was sore, and every Root Bone head seemed to be falling apart.

But he did not hesitate at all. Instead, he concentrated all his will on the long sword, and with a decisive gesture, he injected the last trace of spiritual power into Sword Qi.

At this moment, he has only one unwavering belief in his heart, which is to defeat Black Eye and protect the tranquility and peace of this world.

Golden Sword Qi suddenly shined brightly, like a supernova about to explode, releasing extremely powerful energy, as if it was going to illuminate the entire universe.

This energy instantly broke through Black Tentacles's defense. Under the impact of Sword Qi, the tentacles instantly shattered and turned into a black smoke that dissipated in the air, as if it had never existed, leaving only a faint trace of Evil Aura.

Golden Sword Qi, on the other hand, continued to shoot towards Black Eye with unstoppable momentum, as if it wanted to completely dispel and purify all darkness.

Black Eye seemed to be aware of his dangerous situation and wanted to avoid it but it was too late.

Sword Qi hit it hard, making a dull loud noise, like a desperate sigh from the depths of hell.

Most of the black mist around Black Eye was instantly dispelled, revealing a deep black pupil, which shone with a strange light, as if it contained endless secrets and evil, as if it were a dark vortex that swallowed everything.

However, Black Eye was not completely eliminated. After suffering heavy damage, it shrank suddenly, took Human Emperor Reincarnated Body with it, and rushed towards the crack in the broken void with all its strength.

The light in the crack flickers and makes sharp sounds, as if calling Black Eye, urging it to escape from this dangerous place, as if that is its last life-saving straw.

Ren Xiaoyao was extremely anxious when he saw this.

Regardless of the emptiness of spiritual power in his body and his extremely weak body, he took a strong breath and chased Black Eye again. But at this time, his speed was no longer as fast as before, and his steps became heavy and slow. Every step he took seemed to exhaust all his strength, as if he was trudging through a quagmire.

He could only watch helplessly as Black Eye was about to disappear into the cracks, his heart filled with unwillingness and anxiety, as if there was a fire burning.

At this critical moment, Ren Xiaoyao suddenly thought of a way.

He stopped, quickly formed seals with his hands, and muttered words in a low and mysterious voice, as if he was summoning the ancient mysterious power.

As he moved, golden runes gradually emerged in the surrounding space. These runes exuded a soft and warm light, as if they were blessings from heaven and ancient protective spells.

The runes are intertwined with each other, like a fine network, gradually forming a huge Golden Magic Array.

The magic circle emits a dazzling light, illuminating the entire dark battlefield, making this desolate land seem to be bathed in golden sunlight, bringing a glimmer of hope to people.

Ren Xiaoyao pushed the magic circle towards Black Eye. The magic circle expanded rapidly, like a huge cage, instantly covering Black Eye and the space around it.

Black Eye struggled crazily in the magic circle, letting out bursts of shrill screams. The sound sounded like a trapped demon roaring angrily, or like a desperate soul wailing in pain.

The black mist kept surging, trying to break through the shackles of the magic circle. It hit the edge of the magic circle again and again, splashing black sparks, as if it was a fierce confrontation between darkness and light.

However, the power of the magic circle is extremely powerful, like an indestructible fortress. Every impact is firmly resisted, making Black Eye's struggle gradually become powerless, like a trapped beast fighting.

In the end, under the suppression of the magic circle, Black Eye stopped at the edge of the crack, unable to move any further, as if being held down by an invisible big hand, unable to move.

Ren Xiaoyao took the opportunity to rush forward, raising the sword high again, ready to give Black Eye the final blow.

However, just when he was about to swing his sword, Black Eye suddenly changed.

A black light shot out from its pupils. This light was like a sharp blade, carrying endless darkness and evil, shooting straight towards Ren Xiaoyao.

Ren Xiaoyao couldn't dodge and was hit by the light. His whole figure flew backwards like a kite with its string broken, and fell heavily to the ground.

A mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth. The blood drew an arc in the air, and then fell on the dry and cracked land. It was absorbed instantly, leaving only a dark red trace, as if it was the tragic mark of his battle.

His face became as pale as paper, bloodless, and his body became extremely weak from this blow, and every cell was moaning in pain.

But he endured the pain and stood up again, looking at Black Eye firmly, his eyes revealing Unbending Will and firm belief, as if declaring to Black Eye that he would never be easily defeated, and justice would surely defeat evil.

At this time, Black Eye also consumed a lot of power due to the attack just now, and became dim, like a candle that was about to be extinguished and could disappear completely at any time. It seemed to be aware of its situation and began to struggle crazily. The black mist surged again, trying to make a final death struggle, as if it was making a final fight for its own destiny.

Ren Xiaoyao knew that he could not give Black Eye any more chances. He took a deep breath and focused the last bit of strength in his body on the long sword.

Although this ray of power was weak, it contained all his faith and determination, as if it was the last ray of light in the darkness. Then, he walked towards Black Eye with firm steps.

Every step seems to be stepping between heaven and earth, with Infinite Power and determination, as if he is the master of heaven and earth, and wants to completely eliminate all evil and restore clarity to the world.

His figure looked so tall and firm on this desolate battlefield, as if he was an unshakable towering mountain, standing erect.

When he walked in front of Black Eye, he raised his sword high and used all his strength to slash at Black Eye. This sword condensed all his faith and strength. It was his final judgment against evil, his last blow to protect justice, and his strongest cry for the peace and tranquility of the world.

Golden light flashed, like the brilliance of the sun illuminating the entire dark world, Black Eye let out a desperate scream, the voice was full of fear and unwillingness, and then completely dissipated in the air, as if it had never existed in this world, leaving only a piece of Void.

Human Emperor Reincarnated Body also fell down and fell heavily to the ground. It was unknown whether he was alive or dead. His fate also became confusing with the end of this battle.

Ren Xiaoyao just breathed a sigh of relief and was about to check the situation of Human Emperor Reincarnated Body. Suddenly, a pair of black arms exuding a faint light poked out from the dark depths of the crack in the broken void. Their movements were as fast as lightning, as if they were the hands of a demon from Dark Abyss, carrying endless malice.

These arms grabbed Human Emperor Reincarnated Body's ankles and tried to drag him into the crack. Ren Xiaoyao was startled, and the anger surged up again, burning in his chest, as if it was going to set the whole world on fire.

He would never allow this strange power to take away the enemy in front of his eyes. Even though at this moment he was empty of spiritual energy, seriously injured, and physically exhausted to the extreme. Every movement was accompanied by severe pain, but his will was as hard as steel and unshakable.

He didn't have time to think about it, and instinctively waved the long sword in his hand, slashing towards the black arm with a weak but angry Sword Qi. Although this Sword Qi was not as powerful as before, and the light seemed a little dim, it carried Ren Xiaoyao's firm will and determination to protect justice, as if it were a sharp blade burning with the fire of faith, even if it was weak, it could cut through the darkness.

The moment Sword Qi hit the black arm, there was a dull impact sound, as if two worlds were colliding, and as if the gears of fate were violently rubbing at this moment.

A deep crack suddenly appeared on the black arm, and black mist kept pouring out from the crack, like blood flowing from the wound, exuding a disgusting aura, as if the darkness was spreading Curse.

The black arm seemed to be completely angered by this blow. It twisted wildly, like an enraged poisonous snake. Every twist seemed to tear Sky-Rending Strike apart, trying to speed up and drag Human Emperor Reincarnated Body into the crack.

Seeing this, Ren Xiaoyao was so anxious that he ignored the severe pain in his body, every muscle in his body was protesting, and every Root Bone head seemed to fall apart, but he still tried his best to rush forward and hit the black arm with the hilt of his sword.

This time, with all his strength and anger, it was like the power of a mountain collapsing, causing the power of the black arm to briefly stagnate. Human Emperor Reincarnated Body's body also paused, as if time had stopped briefly at this moment because of Ren Xiaoyao's persistence.

Taking advantage of this gap, Ren Xiaoyao reached out and grabbed Human Emperor Reincarnated Body's other ankle and pulled it out with force.

The black arm and Ren Xiaoyao started a fierce pulling battle. Under the influence of this powerful force, the surrounding space continued to twist and deform, making a "crunching" sound, as if it would break at any time, like a piece of fragile glass that was overstretched and could shatter at any time.

Ren Xiaoyao felt that his strength was disappearing little by little, and his legs began to tremble, as if he would not be able to support his body at any time. Every breath was accompanied by severe pain, but he still held on to Human Emperor Reincarnated Body, with an unyielding light in his eyes, as if he was announcing to the black arm that he would never give up in this contest.

The veins in his arms popped out due to excessive exertion, and every muscle was tense to the extreme, as if it would be torn apart in the next second.

Big beads of sweat kept rolling down his forehead, blurring his vision, but he didn't even have the strength to raise his hand to wipe it away.

At this time, the strong wind became more and more fierce, making his clothes rustle, as if he was cheering for this difficult battle.

Flying sand and rocks kept hitting his face, leaving small traces of blood. The blood slid down his cheeks and dripped on the dry ground under his feet. It was absorbed instantly without leaving a trace.
