At this moment, Qin Ze understood the true meaning of the Demon Suppression Hall.
Once the smelting mode is activated, what remains isn't all "demonic."
A Bing said, "No wonder this woman is so crazy."
Qin Ze thought that Qiong's mental state was quite good, and compared to the others in the matchbox, it was already quite good.
"May I ask, what exactly is your relationship with Jiuyou?"
Joan looked at the man in the scene, her eyes filled with tenderness.
"I was his fiancée; we were about to get married."
No wonder Joan is still able to maintain her current state of clarity; it turns out it's the power of love.
With a wave of his hand, Jiuyou unleashed a dazzling white light from the halo behind him, illuminating the entire void like a rising sun.
At the same time, the black mist surrounding it dissipated.
Qin Ze noticed that the Divine Markings in Jiuyou's left eye had turned pure black.
"Who's showing off? It's so irritating!"
"Look, he's getting anxious because he's called Strange God."
"I told you so, I told you so! Strange God, Strange God, Strange God!"
" Jiuyou, you'd better keep us from leaving, or you'll lose your divine position."
"..."
The people inside the matchbox continued to unleash their furious attacks on Jiuyou.
In contrast, Jiuyou You remained indifferent.
Qin Ze saw change and growth in him.
Compared to Jiuyou just a few minutes ago, he was like a completely different person.
Jiuyou raised his right hand and examined it for a moment, then murmured to himself, "So... this is the real me."
Qiong's expression was complicated. "From this moment on, Jiuyou seems to have become a different person."
"Although he still has the same appearance, his soul is no longer the same as before, Jiuyou."
Qin Ze naturally noticed as well. "The influence of those resentments?"
After a moment's thought, Joan said, "Perhaps."
The surrounding scenery shattered and then reformed.
Jiuyou slaughtered all the enemies who invaded the Barbarian Tribe, and even beheaded a Strange God.
From this perspective, the old fox's plan succeeded.
Jiuyou became the guardian deity of the Barbarian Tribe, Barbarian Tribe grew up little by little under his protection.
More and more people were being suppressed in the Demon Suppression Hall. Whether they were strange beasts, warriors from other races, or even people from his own race who opposed him, they were all thrown into the Demon Suppression Hall to be refined.
The black aura around him increased, and even his right eye gradually showed signs of turning black.
Over the years, Jiuyou would often visit Qiong, and it was this affection that kept Qiong from going mad like the others.
As time went by, the black aura surrounding Jiuyou turned into black mist, and the Divine Markings in his pupils also turned completely black.
In the scene, Jiuyou is talking to Qiong.
Perhaps the rewind time was too long, reaching the limit of the Demon Suppression Hall, the images were intermittent, and the sounds were indistinct.
A tear streaked across Joan's face. "This is the last time he'll come to see me."
Qin Ze asked curiously, "He's gone?"
Joan nodded. "He never talks to me about the outside world, but I can tell from his tired face that even after becoming a god, he is finding it increasingly difficult to cope with the current situation."
"He told me that the number of shadows suppressed by the Demon Suppression Hall had reached its limit, and he could no longer become stronger through the Demon Suppression Hall. Moreover, the shadows were on the Sidelines going berserk, and the Demon Suppression Hall it increasingly difficult to suppress them."
"He will take this time bomb with him as he leaves the Barbarian Tribe, to the Land of the Gods to find himself. Only then will he surpass the gods and continue to protect the Barbarian Tribe."
Qin Ze was completely confused. "Go to the Land of the Gods to find yourself? Isn't he standing right there?"
The scene shifts, and the camera moves to the Demon Suppression Hall.
It was freezing cold, and heavy snow was falling.
Qin Ze frowned. "This is... the Northern Territory?!"
Good heavens, so Jiuyou came to the Human Race to find himself.
A rift opened in the distant sky, and a man in black robes stepped out from behind a coffin.
Qin Ze's expression turned solemn. "The legend of the two gods is indeed true."
"Who exactly is the coffin walker? Is it the guild leader?"
Just like in the legends, the two were instantly ignited by passion upon their first meeting, and fought fiercely.
The result wasn't shown on screen; as the fight intensified, the blurry scene gradually disappeared.
"That's it? Where's the internet cafe manager? Change the disc!"
Demon Suppression Hall: "..."
Qiong said, "The fact that they didn't continue to trace back means that the Demon Suppression Hall is also unaware of what happened afterward."
Qin Ze raised an eyebrow. Could it be that the Demon Suppression Hall had been cracked by the hammer?
I want to go out.
Qiong replied, "You are now the master of the Demon Suppression Hall. This place is no different from your home. You can go wherever you want; the formation will not stop you."
Upon hearing this, Qin Ze forcefully stretched out his hand towards the nearest wall, his arm passing directly through the spatial barrier.
Are you leaving? I can take you with me.
Qin Ze felt sorry for Qiong, even though she wasn't the real Qiong.
The woman shook her head, went back to sit in the corner, and hugged her knees.
"I will continue to wait for Jiuyou here."
He said he would come back to see me, but I'm afraid if I leave, he won't be able to find me when he comes back.
Qin Ze sighed; his love-struck mind was beyond saving.
Goodbye then.
"Goodbye."
After learning about the origins of the Demon Suppression Hall, Qin Ze and Qiong bid farewell and passed through the spatial barrier.
Once outside, Qin Ze discovered that many of the "matchboxes" were broken, and countless shadowy figures seemed to be wandering around like lost ghosts.
Upon spotting Qin Ze, they immediately swarmed towards him.
" Jiuyou! It's Jiuyou!"
"Hehehehe~ Jiuyou Netherworlds, you've finally shown yourself!"
"We helped you become a god; now it's your turn to repay us."
" Jiuyou, give me back my life!"
"..."
Qin Ze couldn't understand why one or two people were mistaking him for Jiuyou.
In terms of appearance, the two people look completely different.
Qin Ze prepared for battle, but before the shadows could touch him, Qin Ze vanished from his spot and reappeared above the imprisonment space.
There seemed to be a thick barrier beneath his feet, separating him from the shadows.
"Owner..."
In the dim light, Qin Ze heard a emotionless voice in his ear; it was the Demon Suppression Hall communicating with him.
"As per your command, I have completed my deep integration with this world."
"However, the suppression barrier is on the verge of collapse. Should we release all the shadows?"
Qin Ze refused without even thinking.
"No!"
Releasing nearly a hundred million Shadows would be tantamount to opening the gates of hell; the Northern Territory would be utterly destroyed.
Why should we be so deeply integrated with the world?
"Only by binding with the world can we borrow its power to fully suppress the demon."
Qin Ze mentally sent a heartfelt greeting to Jiuyou.
That bastard, he threw a time bomb at the Human Race.
"I'm looking for someone, a white-robed swordsman. Where is he?"
The matter of Shadows will be put on hold for now; Qin Ze must first ascertain Brother Yuanzi's condition.
"Come with me."
Ripples spread across the space in front of Qin Ze.
He stepped in, passed through the ripples, and arrived in another void.
In the distance, Qin Ze saw a figure in white robes sitting cross-legged with their head bowed.
Qin Ze's throat tightened, and he finally spoke after taking a deep breath.
"Boss, I've come to pick you up."
