Li Qingshan!
"It's Fellow Daoist Li's aura, but how could it have turned out like this?" Yuan Qingqing's voice trembled slightly.
Five years ago, when they parted, Li Qingshan had already shown signs of demonic possession, with a deep-seated demonic nature within him, but his core still maintained a clear will.
But now, within this aura, the essence belonging to Li Qingshan seemed to have become a flickering candle in the wind, replaced by that cold,
Hunger and indifference, those demonic forces, have completely taken over!
Gu Xin's face was ashen, and he clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
Compared to five years ago, the change is nothing short of earth-shattering!
Is that person still the Fellow Daoist Li we know?
They couldn't imagine what kind of upheaval could cause such a radical transformation in a person within five years.
The lingering demonic aura here, with its lofty essence and ruthless will, made even this newly promoted Middle God King feel a sense of dread and insignificance on a spiritual level.
Recalling the terrifying traces left by the two sides in battle that I had just sensed, and comparing them with what I sensed now...
They already understood the cold, demonic nature of the " Primordial Great Demon."
That terrifying being that destroyed a powerful figure suspected to be above the God Emperor level and reduced thousands of miles of mountains and rivers to Return to the Ruins was probably the Great Demon that Li Qingshan had transformed into!
My former comrade-in-arms, that battle spirit that returned from countless ages ago, has now become such a chaotic and monstrous creature capable of destroying the world?
This fact filled the Sacred Battle Angel with a suffocating heaviness and sorrow.
Their current strength is undeniable in the Heavenly Realm; at the Middle God King, they are capable of establishing a divine kingdom and receiving offerings from all spirits.
However, compared to the two auras that clashed on this Great Demon Mountain Range, their power was as insignificant as dust compared to stars, or fireflies compared to the bright moon!
The gap was beyond description; it was an absolute chasm between the levels of life and the essence of power.
With their power, it would be nothing short of a pipe dream to try to stop, or even just get close to, the " Primordial Great Demon " in its current state.
Before they even get close, they will likely be assimilated and devoured by the dissipating " Darkness of Void," or have their souls torn apart by the chaotic battle intent.
A profound sense of powerlessness gripped the couple's hearts.
Are we simply forced to watch helplessly as Li Qingshan strays further down this path of no return, ultimately succumbing to utter depravity and transforming into a chaotic puppet capable only of destruction and devouring, bringing even greater calamity to this already turbulent Heavenly Realm?
After a long silence, a glimmer of hope suddenly flashed in Yuan Qingqing's eyes. She raised her head, looked at the endless, vast sky in the east, and whispered, " Gu Xin, perhaps we are not without hope."
Gu Xin looked at his wife, his eyes questioning.
Do you remember Chen Zhan's benefactor?
Yuan Qingqing's tone carried a hint of reminiscence and reverence, "His strength is boundless and beyond our comprehension; his realm has probably already reached the legendary Heaven Rank."
Moreover, he seemed to pay quite a bit of attention to Fellow Daoist Li.
Upon hearing this, Gu Xin's golden eyes lit up.
Chen Zhan!
That name represents a legend.
Their profound methods and far-sighted vision filled them with awe.
"You mean, go find Chen Zhan's benefactor?"
Gu Xin pondered, "Perhaps he really does have the ability to help Fellow Daoist Li break free from demonic possession and awaken his true nature?"
This seems to be the only possible direction at present, and the only faint glimmer of light visible in the darkness.
"No matter what, we must give it a try," Yuan Qingqing said firmly. "Fellow Daoist Li has also been kind to us, and we cannot abandon him."
Moreover, if this great Great Demon, transformed from Fellow Daoist Li, is allowed to run rampant on the land of the Heavenly Realm, it will inevitably trigger an even greater disaster.
Gu Xin nodded and took his wife's hand.
The couple, who were of one mind, made a decision.
With one last glance at the Great Demon Mountain Range, a place bearing endless destruction and the tragic song of a departed friend, and sensing the lingering, familiar yet strange aura, the Sacred Battle Angel transformed into two dazzling golden beams of holy light. They tore through the still-unsettled energy turbulence and sped eastward, towards the direction where Chen Zhan might be.
Their figures disappeared into the horizon, while that demonic land continued to silently recount the horrors of the past, awaiting time—perhaps a thousand years—to slowly heal the deep wounds.
Meanwhile, in the vast buffer zone where the distant Eastern Heaven Realm meets the Western Heaven Realm.
This is not a prosperous divine realm, but a " Domain of Disorder " filled with various chaotic laws, spatial rifts, and countless forces large and small occupying it.
War, slaughter, and plunder are the Eternal themes here.
Above a desolate red plain, space rippled like water, and then a terrifying pressure that made the world lose its color suddenly descended.
The sky instantly darkened, as if splashed with thick ink, and the sunlight was mercilessly swallowed up.
All living beings on earth, whether they were alien legions at war, ferocious beasts lurking in caves, or demons who ruled the mountains, or immortals Immortal God of major cultivation sects, all felt fear and trembling from the very instincts of their souls at this moment.
A towering, thousand-foot-tall demonic figure stepped out from the distorted Void.
It is none other than the " Primordial Great Demon " from the West!
The " Darkness of Void " surrounding him was dense and profound, writhing like a living thing, exuding an aura that could end everything.
Chaos's eyes slowly swept over the land below, which was filled with the scent of "food," and a pure, cold hunger spread like a tide.
He didn't roar, he didn't declare anything, he simply raised his giant foot covered in pale demonic runes, and then slowly stepped down onto the battlefield below, where tens of thousands of alien legions were fiercely fighting.
There were no flashy magical powers, no complicated techniques.
Only the most essential, absolute power that incorporates the devouring properties of " Darkness of Void ".
Before the giant foot had even fully landed, the overwhelming pressure had already frozen the movements and halted the thoughts of all living beings on the battlefield below.
Whether it was a giant hundreds of feet tall, an elven mage riding an elemental storm, or those ferocious and bloodthirsty magical beasts, they were all transformed into terrified sculptures at this moment.
The next moment.
"Boom!!!!!"
It is not a sound, but the lament of a soul whose existence has been erased.
The giant foot landed.
Centered on the point of impact, the land within a ten-mile radius was wiped away as if by an invisible giant hand!
There was no smoke, no gravel, and no explosive flames.
Only absolute, profound darkness spread rapidly.
Where the darkness passed, tens of thousands of alien legions, along with the crimson plains beneath their feet, and further away, several towering demon castles protected by divine-level restrictions.
Everything—matter, energy, soul, even the fundamental laws that constitute their existence—collapses, dissipates, and is utterly swallowed up the moment it comes into contact with that " Darkness of Void."
Just one kick.
A vast region that had existed for countless ages, was home to millions of living beings, and was overseen by several powerful Immortal God, had all traces of life and civilization on it completely erased from the map at the border of the Western Heaven Realm.
All that remains is a massive, bottomless sinkhole.
The Primordial Great Demon retracted its giant foot, its chaotic eyes devoid of any emotion, as if it had merely done a trivial matter.
He sensed the barely perceptible increase in power within his body, and his gaze once again turned eastward, towards a direction where the energy reaction was more concentrated and more "delicious".
He continued to stride forward, his thousand-foot-tall demonic body moving beneath the dim sky. Wherever he passed, all things Return to the Ruins, and the laws of nature wailed, like a world-destroying god walking among mortals.
It is like a concrete projection of the end of the universe, writing a chapter of chaos and destruction on this vast land in the most direct and cruel way.
