"What's this?"

When Shen Zhao threw something at her, Yu Xiyan instinctively raised her hand to catch it.

But the next moment, an extremely evil aura instantly enveloped Yu Xiyan's consciousness.

Ah~

With a shrill scream, the resentment within Yu Xiyan's body went out of control in an instant, surging back into her meridians, causing her unbearable pain.

"What...what is this...what have you done to me?!"

Shen Zhao replied in an extremely calm tone, "This is an item that belonged to Xie Ran, called the Purple-Eyed Evil Eye."

Extremely yin and evil substances can not only alter cognition, but also cause irreversible damage to the soul.

The deepest resentment within you will create a repulsive effect, and you will soon perish.

"Shen Zhao!!!"

With a roar, Yu Xiyan's face and body aged and withered at a visible speed, and in an instant she became a body even uglier than Dongfang Xiong.

"Why...why...why did you do this to me...do you really...hate me that much?"

"Your existence will affect the survival of another world. In order to prevent the tragedy of the previous life,

To eradicate the out-of-control corruption, I have no choice but to strike at its very core. And you must vanish!

After speaking, Shen Zhao threw the uncut jade in his hand directly into the void.

In an instant, the vast true essence left behind by the Blood Nightmare formed a powerful suction force, absorbing all the chaotic power in the void.

As the evil clouds continued to converge on the jade, the sky gradually changed from pitch black to dusk.

At the same time, the world began to gradually collapse.

Knowing she was doomed, Yu Xiyan focused all her resentment on Shen Zhao.

"Shen Zhao, you won't have an easy time either. You think you can be free from me? Wishful thinking! Even if I die, you're destined never to be reunited with those seductive and shameless women!"

Suddenly, a dark purple wave of energy burst out from Yu Xiyan's body and entered Shen Zhao's body with lightning speed.

"Huh? Yu Xiyan, you!"

"Hahaha, Shen Zhao, this resentment is powerful enough to destroy the heavens and the earth. You must preserve it well, as it could spread at any time."

Anyone close to you could die because of you. Even if I die, you'll only ever remember me, hahahahaha…

Amidst hoarse, maniacal laughter, Yu Xiyan's form gradually disintegrated and vaporized, leaving only a fairy robe floating to the ground.

"Well--"

As evil spirits entered his body, they eroded Shen Zhao's consciousness and gradually changed his appearance.

With a burst of mental power, an evil mark gradually appeared on his forehead.

"Drink!"

With a deep shout, Shen Zhao managed to suppress the resentment from spreading further.

At the same time, the chaotic evil clouds that had shrouded the sky for decades were finally absorbed by the uncut jade.

As the jade shattered and exploded, the long-lost sunlight once again enveloped the land.

"Phew~"

Exhaling a long breath of stale air, Shen Zhao closed his eyes and took a breath of fresh air before collapsing wearily onto the ground.

Recalling what had just happened, Shen Zhao was still shaken.

With her outstanding strategies and methods, Yu Xiyan not only deceived and manipulated the Blood Nightmare, but also fooled the system.

She single-handedly slaughtered the entire Nine Realms, causing an imbalance of Yin and Yang in spacetime, and was only one step away from successfully achieving her goal.

Regardless of her character, whether she was ruthless or vicious, Shen Zhao had to admit it.

Looking at this history of the Nine Realms' fall, which concerns the future, Yu Xiyan's methods—

Unmatched!

If this were in a novel, it would definitely be a villainous female protagonist script where she uses any means to pursue power.

But now, everything is back on track.

"Finally, it's over—"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of shattering glass.

The barrier between parallel universes shattered instantly, and the leather-bound book that recorded the history of parallel universes turned to ashes in an instant.

When Shen Zhao opened his eyes again, he was still standing atop the highest peak, finally back in reality.

The wooden house in front of us was rotten and dilapidated, and it seemed to have not been repaired for a long time.

"Time to deal with the remaining scraps."

Gripping the pendant given to him by Su Yunying, Shen Zhao transformed into a Golden-Winged Kunpeng, who was already at the peak of the Great Emperor realm, and began to slowly fly towards the Southern Region.

...

Outside Luoyang, the armies of the Nine Netherworlds and the Buddhist Kingdom gathered, intending to break through the last barrier of the Southern Region in one fell swoop.

"After nearly a year of preparation, it's time to bring everything to an end. The Buddha Kingdom and the Nine Netherworlds will jointly rule the Nine Realms."

The Buddha and the Asura Emperor, leaders of the two realms, are both cultivators at the Feathered Realm, eyeing the Seven-Colored Saint Monarch Rock with covetous intent, determined to conquer it in one fell swoop and annihilate all the empresses, including Su Yunying and Song Yanran.

On the Nine Netherworld side, the Asura Emperor and Realm Lord Li Cangqiong had a strong disagreement regarding the issue of Shen Zhao.

Ultimately, this led to the Asura Emperor joining forces with other sects to launch a coup, seizing control of the Nine Netherworlds in one fell swoop. Taking advantage of the Heavenly Ranking exploding its barrier, he joined forces with the Buddhist Kingdom to invade the Nine Realms.

The first target was the Southern Region where Shen Zhao was located.

However, the southern region had already made thorough preparations.

Empresses Song Yanran and Mu Qiuyao, taking advantage of the explosion of the Heavenly Ranking and the resulting opening of passages between realms, also transferred their respective elite forces to the Southern Region for defense.

The Central Region, the Northern Region, and the Southern Region, together with 800,000 elite warriors, directly confronted the invasion of the Nine Netherworld Buddhist Kingdom.

On the battlefield, dark clouds loomed over the city, creating an atmosphere of unprecedented oppression.

The Asura Emperor was the first to soar into the void, shouting loudly towards Luoyang City: "Song Yanran!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a five-clawed golden dragon coiled and circled from the auspicious clouds.

In the instant of transformation, Song Yanran proudly displayed her imperial bearing.

With one hand behind her back and her bright eyes slightly closed, she looked at the hundreds of thousands of evil tide troops in front of her, her expression unchanged.
