[Evil Emperor, have you ever been defeated...]
[Evil Emperor, you must be lonely. One companion after another has died because of you, even your lover. Don't you find that tragic...]
[Evil Emperor, you are indeed humanity's hope, but you are also humanity's despair. You're nothing but a harbinger of disaster...]
[Evil Emperor, you lost...]
Long, ethereal voices echoed endlessly through his mind.
Mo Xie's face twisted in pain. His eyes shut, he shook his head stiffly as beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, and he kept muttering.
"No... I haven't lost... I haven't lost..."
Suddenly, another voice rang out in his mind. Unlike the long, ethereal voices before it, this one was lovely, with a trace of tenderness.
[Xie, you'll come save me, won't you...]
The instant the voice faded, veins bulged across Mo Xie's face, and he roared almost simultaneously.
"Even if an abyss of hell lies ahead, I'll get you out!"
The darkness dispersed, and light returned to his spiritual world.
His spiritual world no longer held tiny patches of stardust, like fireflies glowing in a corner. Instead, clusters of stars spread out like clouds.
Each star shone with a rich luster, larger than an ordinary star. Golden patterns were branded across their surfaces, their radiance intertwining!
Most striking of all, none of the nebulas had the normal color of its magic element.
"What... is going on?"
Shock crossed Mo Xie's face, the nebulas of his three elements reflected in his clear eyes.
The Lightning Element Nebula was purple-black, the Fire Element Nebula blood-red, and the Ice Element Nebula blue-white!
They were nothing like the unremarkable stardust from before. Now, he could clearly sense the immense power contained within the nebulas.
While Mo Xie stood stunned, three virtual panels appeared before him.
