Lin Chen hovered in midair, his form enveloped by a black mist that could rival the sun and moon, stretching for miles like a torrent and covering the entire world.
Everyone on the ground had turned into corpses strewn about, and perhaps until the end, they never believed this existence, seemingly as harmless as a kitten, would be so powerful and terrifying.
Lin Chen swung his weapon, directing the black mist to swiftly cover the entire sky. The sunlight overhead vanished, replaced by an endless night.
The elderly man in purple calculated with his fingers, seeing the anomaly in the sky, he muttered darkly: it seems the Demon Kuang Tian has been resurrected.
"Master, it’s terrible news!"
At that moment, his apprentice came rushing towards him, wailing loudly along the way.
Up close, he saw it was the apprentice he had sent out. Her hair was disheveled, her eyes full of terror, blood trailing down her lips, as she collapsed before him.
"What has made you so frightened, my apprentice? Tell me slowly," the old man said, having faced countless battles in his lifetime, he remained calm no matter what happened.
"Master, the Demon Kuang Tian is resurrected, and all other sects have been slaughtered by them. Now they’re advancing towards the Kunlun Mountains."
The elderly man in purple had long been aware of this, feeling neither surprised nor worried, he simply sighed, stroked his beard, realizing it was a step too late.
"What is going on? Why is the Demon Kuang Tian at Qinglan Sect, and why has he killed the other Sect Leaders entirely?"
"Master, the situation arose because the Supreme Being is the Demon Kuang Tian." When he first heard the news, he was shocked beyond measure, unable to believe it.
Just as expected, hearing this, the elderly man’s last hope was utterly shattered. The Supreme Being has become the Demon Kuang Tian, the notion was absurd.
"How can the Supreme Being, isn’t it supposed to be our Kuang Tian’s lesson? How could they become one?"
"It is said that the Supreme Being was betrayed by others, allowing Demon Kuang Tian to exploit the situation. He agreed to a deal with the demon, thus becoming the Demon Kuang Tian."
The elderly man in purple was once a respected and powerful figure throughout the continent, never imagining the world would fall into such chaos.
The elderly man shook his head and sighed.
"The so-called righteous sects have degraded to such despicable levels, and the Supreme Being was indeed framed by others."
The elderly man once shared a connection with the Ancient Dragon War God, knowing what kind of existence he was, righteous and awe-inspiring, leaving an indelible impression in his heart.
That the self-respecting being was linked to the Ancient Dragon War God, proves he possesses the formidable righteousness of the Ancient Bronze War God, and would never tread a demonic path.
The occurrence of such events now could only prove he was disappointed by the righteous individuals once full of hope.
"Quickly descend the mountain and take this item ?? you must protect the Kunlun Mountains." The elderly man knows it’s too late for regret, the pressing matter is solving this immense crisis.
The Kunlun Immortal Realm, with its vast array of influential figures and deep foundations, is a formidable force. If it were to be annihilated by the Demon Kuang Tian, the blow to the continent would be catastrophic.
Holding his master’s pouch, the apprentice did not immediately depart, but looked up at his master.
"Master, how can such a small pouch save the Kunlun Mountains? We face the world’s pinnacle of demons!"
"My student, this is the only solution I could conceive. You may not return from this mission, and if you’re unwilling, I shall go myself."
The apprentice understood the deadly crisis, hesitating slightly, he agreed to his master’s request.
"Master trusts me so much; how could I fail you? Rest assured, I will fulfill the task you entrusted to me."
The apprentice was indeed agile, disappearing swiftly into the night, yet the elderly man took no joy watching his student’s departing silhouette.
There were originally two ways to overcome the Demon Kuang Tian. With the Supreme Being allied with the Demon Kuang Tian, the sole recourse is finding the Ancient God.
Yet, the Ancient God is elusive, rarely seen, his whereabouts unknown; finding him now would indeed be challenging.
The elderly man is not one to easily abandon hope, leaping away from there.
After merging with the Demon Kuang Tian, Lin Chen’s mind became clouded, his heart progressively tainted by corruption.
Xiao Ying remained a puppet, with lifeless eyes, stiffly standing there like a zombie.
Lin Chen picked up the girl, who lay in his embrace without resistance or expression.
Lin Chen resolved to slaughter all righteous sects, leaving none behind.
Lin Chen suddenly savored the thrill of violence, understanding the exhilaration of being invincible upon the summit.
Lin Chen settled Xiao Ying in a safe location.
Having decided to eliminate everyone, Lin Chen planned to find a secluded haven, an earthly paradise where he could live in seclusion with the girl, ignoring worldly matters.
Only now did Lin Chen realize, Xiao Ying was the most important thing to him.
Xiao Ying sat there, lost in thought and empty-eyed.
Lin Chen gently took her hand, placing it on his face, looking fondly at Xiao Ying.
"Don’t worry, someday I will restore you to normalcy, and never fail your expectations," Lin Chen said softly.
After uttering these words, Lin Chen swiftly left the cave, unaware that tears glinted in the girl’s eyes behind him.
Lin Chen’s sole concern now was whether his grand plans would succeed.
