The situation of the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon can only be described as extremely unlucky.

They gathered their strength and gained the upper hand against Zhang Xuezhou, but their efforts were quickly thwarted by the Emperor. They returned to their lair, only to be taken back by the Emperor.

Using various means to restrain the Emperor from continuously refining, Zhang Xuezhou led his men to attack again.

The Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon were not interested in Zhang Xuezhou's memories of his life experiences, but they knew these people.

In a short period of time, Zhang Xuezhou summoned all the world's top Sequence Holder, demonstrating a communication ability comparable to an emperor issuing commands.

Badun, from the Ninth Sequence, disrupted the balance of power.

To defeat Badun, one must abandon the Refining Emperor; otherwise, the Refining Emperor cannot defeat Badun and will be gradually devoured by these people.

Everything happened at such a perfect time, and the pace was too fast.

The events involving the scepter, the rebellion of the dead, and the betrayal of the mallard ducks further exacerbated the already dire situation.

"Put on a good stunt; if he finds out you gave me the scepter, you're dead!"

"Quack, you're practically telling him the answer!"

Zhang Xuezhou added, "The mallard duck was forced into this situation."

Of course, even without Zhang Xuezhou's words, the life or death of the mallard duck was entirely in the hands of the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon.

After all, from the moment Zhang Xuezhou and the others physically entered this place, the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon knew very well that the scepter was missing.

If the other party hadn't been embroiled in a battle to refine the Emperor, the Green-headed Duck would never have known its fate.

That's why he started tipping off Zhang Xuezhou and the others as soon as they arrived, until he finally stood on the opposite side.

If there were any way to make amends, Green-headed Duck felt he needed to take back the scepter, control the group of dead souls, defeat these Sequence Holder, and also ensure that the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon successfully refined the Emperor. Only after all these things were resolved smoothly could he gain the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon's forgiveness.

Things were so difficult that the mallard felt there was no way to recover what had been done.

He and Zhang Xuezhou are somewhat similar in temperament; they will definitely bow their heads when necessary and succumb to the choice of survival.

After replying to Zhang Xuezhou, the green-headed duck began to berate the fickle, red-skinned dead soul in the main hall.

"You fanatics, think about who made you like this. It's him! He's the one who has made you neither human nor ghost, eternally slaves here. You can't be without your own thoughts; you must learn to rise up and become masters of your own destiny..."

The wisdom of the dead is very limited; they are confused about everything and do not possess the wisdom of adults.

Furthermore, the undead do not understand the language of the Scarlet Alliance State and can only understand some simple messages through gestures.

The mallard duck babbles a lot, most of which is incomprehensible, but the incomprehensible content, combined with its wings, forms a kind of command.

If a dead soul aligns with the commander's intentions, the words and wings pointing at that soul form a guide, which can then lead other dead souls to follow suit and perform the same actions.

Zhang Xuezhou also had to read it several times before he understood.

This led him to give the command several times.

Dozens of chains flew out from the red-skinned undead's priestly robes, seemingly probing into the void; the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon's sturdy outer shell offered no obstruction whatsoever.

Golden flames appeared intermittently, but this time they failed to completely incinerate the chains.

Zhang Xuezhou saw the roars of the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon inside the clay figure continue, and a thunderous sound also rang out, which made his eyes light up.

Although his strength was not fully prepared, he was currently enjoying the prosperity of both worlds, and various coincidences led to the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon being attacked from both sides.

This situation is far better than Zhang Xuezhou's desperate attempt to reach the True Self Realm back then.

"Teacher, keep up the good work! We're here to help you!"

Zhang Xuezhou shouted, and the sound waves of the Demonic Sound Technique rolled away.

"Your Majesty..."

Ren Anran's eyes lit up, but also showed a hint of wariness.

Ren Anran had a very good impression of the Emperor. The Emperor she met was elegant, gentle and courteous. However, her encounter with the Emperor in the Western Kunlun was extremely unfriendly.

She hoped the Emperor could lend a hand, but she didn't want to encounter powerful cultivators like the Emperor in the real world.

Just like how different countries treat fireballs and other creatures, everyone needs to maintain a safe distance when facing unfamiliar and powerful individuals.

This is something that must be considered, but it's something that can't be addressed at the moment.

Ren Anran was just as eager for the Emperor to be at the forefront, to prevent them from encountering danger.

"Is Badun dead?"

When the unfamiliar voice rang out, Ren Anran realized that Nagoth had also entered the hall with the dead soul.

Upon seeing Badun collapse to the ground, coughing up blood, Naggs instinctively took a step back, only to be pushed back by the surging in of dead souls.

Nagoss looked somewhat regretful, and asked the question with embarrassment and wariness.

"After his domain was broken, he experienced some backlash, but he won't die," Zhang Xuezhou replied. "That guy is hiding inside that giant mud figure's body. Don't you have any good plans to attack him?"

The Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon launched a counterattack with a wide range and at an extremely fast speed. Ren Yisheng and Qimeng Haige were the first to be defeated, followed by the breaking of Badun's domain, and then the counterattack against Zhang Xuezhou, who was hiding behind Ren Anran.

There aren't many people capable of making a move right now, and seeing Nagos arrive, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but want to send Nagos forward to test the waters.

"They all seem to be making their moves. Do they need my help?" Nagos asked cautiously, pointing at the undead that had materialized.

"Their methods of attack are limited," Zhang Xuezhou said. "While this clay figure is immobilized, we should try other methods and try to kill him!"

"What about you guys? Have you tried it?" Nagos asked.

"Look, An Ran is half-crippled, and my right hand is bleeding too!"

Zhang Xuezhou pointed to Ren Anran, whose golden light was dimming, and then to his own right hand, which was split open at the base of his thumb.

His words made Naggus look at Ren Yisheng and Chimon Haig, who were wailing and clutching their heads, then at Badun, who was lying on the ground coughing up blood, then at Zhang Xuezhou and Ren Anran, and finally at himself, who was completely unharmed.

"So I have to go?"

Nags asked a question, and seeing Zhang Xuezhou nod, he couldn't help but mutter a few words to himself, and a flame quickly rose in his left hand.

Unlike the Technique Method who cast Fire Technique, Nagoth's flames smeared towards the spare longsword he was carrying.

A streak of flame appeared on the sharp blade.

He cautiously observed the clay figure, then strode forward and leaped, slashing his longsword heavily down at the collapsed head, causing a series of explosions.

"He's been used as Zhang Xuezhou's pawn without even realizing it, and this nobody dares to embarrass himself like this!"

The Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon roared in a deep voice, shaking its head repeatedly, and large patches of dark red flames spewed from the bones that appeared on its sunken face.

The longsword turned red and melted in a short time, then turned into a molten metal.

Nagoth's body instantly turned crimson, revealing his ferocious beastly form. He drew his spare sword again and swiftly slashed at the part of his body that was stained with flames.

His fireproof pants and close-fitting soft armor fell off, and a large amount of blood spurted out from his thighs. Only then did he struggle and retreat more than ten meters away in horror.

In just one exchange of blows, he nearly lost his life.

Nagos staggered to his feet, sword in hand, his face clouded with gloom. When his gaze fell upon Zhang Xuezhou, Zhang Xuezhou raised his hand towards the giant clay figure, and the sounds of explosions and burning bones immediately rang out.

"The Immortal Flame God Stone?"

Nags had already decided to retreat and not advance any further, and no matter how much Zhang Xuezhou urged him, he would not charge.

But upon merely observing what Zhang Xuezhou had thrown, a surge of fervor rose within him, and he charged forward once more, wielding his spare longsword.
