" Ink Cloud Lake, move out!"

Boom!

At the same time as Lord of Danzhu launched his attack, Lord of Cloud Sleeve also made her move, unleashing her top-tier Domain-type Supreme Treasure — Ink Cloud Lake.

Lord of Cloud Sleeve Master, a vast expanse of jet-black ink spread out, enveloping Luo Ao in the distance.

Buzz--

Before the Ink Lake could spread, Lord of Danzhu's attack had already arrived!

"Boom!"

Luo Ao stood still, his spear striking again, this time with the Strongest Secret Technique of the Path of the Beast God — the Source Flow: Water and Void.

It was as if a deep-sea world, swirling with endless currents, had been created in the void, easily shattering the crimson shuttle and sending it flying backward.

Just as Luo Ao launched his counterattack, the Lord of Darkness, who had been hiding, suddenly appeared in Black Wind Gorge!

" The Netherworld Realm!" A deep voice echoed as a sudden darkness descended, and the dim light seemed to blend into the environment of Black Wind Gorge, almost instantly colliding with the distant black ink waves!

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh--" It was as if a stream had encountered a great flood. Ink Cloud Lake's domain could not be fully utilized and was forced to shrink back, only focusing around the Lord of Cloud Sleeve himself!

The endless black wind and hazy black light seemed to combine, directly enveloping a range of 100 light-years. In an instant, it was as if night had fallen, and everyone was completely plunged into a dark world.

"This is... the Netherworld Realm!" The Lord of Cloud Sleeve's expression changed instantly.

" Lord of Darkness!"

"Oh no, it's him, the Lord of Darkness!"

Everyone else present paled at the sight. The Lord of Darkness's terror was forged through countless battles!

"That's right, it's me!" The bald man stood in the center of the night, like a sinister king of the night. At this moment, his cold and sinister eyes were looking down at the four powerful figures from the East Emperor Holy Land in the distance!

"How could it be him!" Lord of Shisui's face instantly turned extremely ugly, and his excited and agitated mood plummeted to rock bottom!

" Lord of Darkness!" The Lord of Weishan and the Lord of Danzhu looked at the bald man with skin as white as jade, and their expressions also became serious.

The four men looked at the extremely strange and complex black runes on the other man's head and instantly recognized him as a highly renowned expert.

"Damn it! How do you know the Lord of Darkness!" The Lord of Shisui turned to look at the Lord of Flaming Night, his face full of resentment!

The Lord of Darkness is one of the most troublesome even among the Fifth-Order Universe Master! With his appearance, they're in trouble this time.

"What, you're allowed to call for help, but I can't call my friends?" Luo Ao glanced at the Lord of Shisui, his attention quickly focusing on the black mask on the other's face.

"That mask should be a part of the Blood Moon Demon Armor." Luo Ao and the Lord of Darkness stood together, scanning the four of them.

Although they outnumbered the other four, their side undoubtedly held the advantage at this moment!

" Lord of Flaming Night! You're ruthless! But I'd like to know, even if you succeed in obtaining the Supreme Treasure component here, who will ultimately possess the final Supreme Treasure?"

"Do you intend to offer yourself to the Lord of Darkness?" The Lord of Shisui was also cold and frosty at this moment, deliberately trying to sow discord between the two sides.

Generally, only those of comparable strength can become friends and cooperate. However, the Lord of Darkness is clearly far more powerful. Even if the opponent were to enlist the Lord of Darkness, how could they guarantee that the ultimate Supreme Treasure would still fall into their hands?

"You don't need to worry about that." Luo Ao naturally saw through the other party's little trick and sneered disdainfully.

The Lord of Darkness also wore a calm and serene smile, showing no sign of anger.

"Good! Very good! Today, we'll see what the Lord of Darkness can do!" Clearly, after the Lord of Darkness appeared, the attention of the Lord of Shisui and the others immediately turned to him.

After all, a person's name is like a tree's shadow.

The Lord of Darkness had made such a name for himself in the Universe Ocean, so how could they dare to underestimate his abilities?

"You want to see my skills? Then I'll grant your wish." The Lord of Darkness, controlling the Peak Domain Supreme Treasure, ' Netherworld Realm,' completely seized the initiative in the battle. At the same time, the moment the four looked at him, he launched his attack.

" Terrifying Abyss!" Countless eerie black patterns suddenly appeared on the Lord of Darkness's fair, jade-like skin!

Accompanied by the sinister voice of the Lord of Darkness.

This dark world seemed to have transformed into a bottomless deep sea. In an instant, endless waves of time and space surged up in the night. Powerful shock waves formed in the distorted spacetime, combined with the power of the Netherworld Realm itself, and wave after wave rushed madly towards the four people opposite!

"Boom!" "Boom!"...

The endless waves of spacetime, each one more powerful than the previous attack from the Lord of Shisui, crashed down relentlessly. How could the Lord of Shisui and his companions dare to confront them head-on?

Weishan!

Without prior arrangement, the other three all approached the Lord of Weishan, whose body resembled Heaven-Piercing stone pillar. The Lord of Weishan then took out a deep blue tower shield Supreme Treasure and held it in front of him.

"Bang!" A powerful impact force instantly and continuously struck the dark blue tower shield.

The Lord of Weishan, wielding his tower shield, stood incredibly steady, barely managing to withstand the onslaught of countless black spatial waves.

However, as the spacetime waves of the dark deep sea world continued to crash in, the Lord of Weishan and the others were like a small reef in the endless waves, barely able to withstand them, and unable to launch any further counterattacks.

With a single move, the power of the Lord of Darkness suppressed the four people, rendering them unable to retaliate, demonstrating his formidable strength.

"What a Lord of Darkness!" Lord of Weishan held up the Tower Supreme Treasure, his face flushed. Even with his unshakeable, massive divine body and the Tower Supreme Treasure, he was finding it extremely difficult. The opponent's ' Terrifying Abyss ' was truly powerful!

"If you can block this attack, then take my next one, Doomsday Ruins!" As the Lord of Darkness finished speaking, endless thunder and flames erupted from the boundless dark sea!

Various attacks rained down on all parts of the dark space, as if a universe was about to be Great Destruction!

" Dark Dream!" The moment the apocalyptic scene descended, the Lord of Darkness unleashed an extremely powerful soul attack!

The impact on the soul was so strong that even the Lord of Weishan found it extremely difficult to resist, and his body began to tremble involuntarily!

Although the Lord of Darkness's Soul Attack cannot directly Soul Annihilation of Universe Master, this illusionary technique can still affect the opponent's actions to some extent.

Even many extremely powerful Universe Master were unable to unleash their strongest offensive techniques under the influence of his illusionary methods. As a result, they would naturally be at a significant disadvantage in their battle against the Lord of Darkness.

"What a terrifying Lord of Darkness! Cloud Sleeve, quickly call for help from the Holy Land! I'm outside, I should be able to hold him off for a while!" Apart from Lord of Weishan, who was confident he could withstand the Lord of Darkness for a period of time thanks to his super divine body, Lord of Danzhu was like a little quail at the moment, only daring to hide behind Lord of Weishan's tower shield.

"Alright!" The Lord of Cloud Sleeve glanced at the Lord of Shisui, whose expression was still unwilling, and immediately nodded.

Although they weren't direct descendants of the East Emperor Holy Land, they were still part of it, so getting reinforcements wouldn't be difficult.

"Dark Master, this group attack suppression technique is indeed powerful." Luo Ao couldn't help but admire it inwardly as he watched the Lord of Darkness suppress the four people without being able to fight back, all by himself.

Although his ' Jade Light Reversal ' should be more powerful than the Lord of Darkness's, it is a single-target attack. Against weaker opponents, it is not as effective as the Lord of Darkness's techniques.

"This Lord of Weishan is a bit troublesome to deal with. With him around, suppressing the seal will be quite difficult." The bald man looked at the towering, azure stone mountain giant and also felt somewhat troubled.

Anyone would find it troublesome to encounter such a massive and incredibly powerful being. If it were only the three Lord of Shisui others present, he was confident he could quickly end the battle. However, with the Lord of Weishan acting as a 'shield' against his attacks, this battle was naturally not something that could be resolved in a short time.

"Uncle-Master, let's join forces and suppress the Lord of Weishan!" This time, he had invited the other party to help, so naturally he couldn't just watch the Lord of Darkness act alone.

" Heaven-Sealing Domain, activate!"

The Heaven-Sealing Token's ability to Control of Space-Time can be stacked with the binding effect of any Domain-type Supreme Treasure.

The moment Luo Ao displayed this technique, everyone present could feel that the already stagnant dark world instantly became even heavier, just like the dark deep sea suddenly freezing over, so oppressive that even the Lord of Weishan couldn't help but pause!

"This Lord of Flaming Night actually has such methods!" The Lord of Weishan looked at the other party with his huge azure eyes, his face full of shock, while the Lord of Darkness looked thoughtful.

"It seems my mysterious junior disciple has quite the methods." He had only ever seen a special treasure that could Control of Space-Time with a certain powerful figure in the Purple Moon Holy Land. Back then, that person had caused him quite a bit of trouble by using that special treasure.

"Although Uncle Dark is powerful, it's unrealistic for him to do anything to the Lord of Weishan." His divine body's size is actually quite shameless.

Many beings who are inherently weak can rely on the immense advantage of their divine bodies to essentially ignore attacks from stronger beings.

Just like now, although the Lord of Darkness can suppress the Lord of Weishan, it is almost impossible for him to kill him directly.

With a colossal divine body five million kilometers tall, coupled with the defense of a top-tier armor Supreme Treasure, the Lord of Weishan could simply stand there and let the opponent attack him without suffering any serious harm. Therefore, their only option was to directly suppress and seal the opponent.

Simply swallowing a powerful individual whole is impossible unless the difference in strength between the two is too great.

In general, in one-on-one situations, the strategy is to first severely injure the enemy, weakening their ability to resist, before suppressing and sealing them. Only in this way can success be achieved.

However, it's clear that it will be difficult for them to seriously injure the Lord of Weishan.

Therefore, they only had one option: to cooperate and forcefully 'force' the other into a sealed Supreme Treasure.

"Alright! Let's attack together!" The Lord of Darkness clearly understood how to handle the situation and was ready to cooperate.

" Nine Fiends Prison, emerge!" In the dark world, nine purple rays of light flowed, illuminating a corner of the pitch-black world and instantly attracting the attention of everyone present.

"It's the Nine Fiends Prison!"

So you are the Master of Nine Fiends Prison!

Seeing the Nine Fiends Prison, which had recently gained considerable fame but had suddenly fallen silent for a period of time, not only were the Lord of Weishan and the Lord of Shisui bewildered, but even the Lord of Darkness was somewhat surprised.

"I never imagined that Asura was the extremely mysterious Master of Nine Fiends Prison." The Lord of Darkness stared at Luo Ao in astonishment. Back when the Master of Nine Fiends Prison was rampaging, he had displayed the strength of Fifth-Order Universe Master!

"My nephew's progress in strength is simply incomprehensible!" The Human Race's experts all knew that Asura was not actually the Universe Master yet!

How incredible is it that someone of the rank of Universe Venerable can unleash the power of Fifth-Order Universe Master?

The entire Human Race, excluding the Giant Axe and the suppressed Original Ancestor, has only three Fifth-Order Universe Master, including himself!

This shows just how difficult it was to take this step!

"I didn't want to expose the Nine Fiends Prison, but compared to the importance of the Blood Moon Demon Armor, the Nine Fiends Prison is nothing." In his haste, Luo Ao had already communicated with the Lord of Darkness Soul Transmission.

" Black Nether Tower!"

The Lord of Darkness let out a cold shout and suddenly hurled a pure black tower that was entirely crystalline. The tower rapidly expanded, instantly transforming into a majestic divine tower that stretched for hundreds of millions of kilometers. The entire tower was covered with endless golden runes and exuded a mysterious and heavy aura.

"Suppress!" the Lord of Darkness shouted again.

Wow!

The heavy black tower's base rumbled open, revealing complete darkness inside. An incredibly powerful suction force instantly acted upon the Lord of Weishan.

This Black Nether Tower is also a top-tier sealing Supreme Treasure. It was activated by the Lord of Darkness and, in particular, it borrowed the binding power of the Netherworld Realm. Its power of absorption was so strong that even the massive body of the Lord of Weishan felt his divine body tremble repeatedly.

"You want to suppress and seal me? Don't even think about it!" The Lord of Weishan Divine Power Burning as he desperately resisted. He glared angrily at the two of them and roared madly.

"Help me quickly!"

Upon hearing the Lord of Weishan's angry roar, the three Lord of Cloud Sleeve hiding behind his tower shield also hurriedly tried their best to stop the Lord of Darkness. After all, they had been relying on the Lord of Weishan to block the attacks from the outside, which was why they had been able to stay safe.

Once the Lord of Weishan is suppressed, they will naturally have no chance of escaping unscathed.

"If you don't go in voluntarily, I'll send you in." Luo Ao stared coldly at the Lord of Weishan, while simultaneously controlling the Nine Fiends Dragons and unleashing his strongest move!

Seeing the nine lifelike purple dragons raise their heads in unison, the Lord of Darkness also spared a bit of his attention to the changes on Luo Ao's side.

"This move must be the ' Master of Nine Fiends Prison's' signature move— the Jade Light Reversal." Under everyone's gaze, the roars of Dragon Roar suddenly echoed throughout the dark world.
