Just then, the Demon Emperor suddenly conceived a plan. He deliberately created an opening to lure Si Mingye into attacking. Si Mingye fell for the trap and thrust his sword at the Demon Emperor. The Demon Emperor seized the opportunity to grab Si Mingye's sword and channeled a powerful surge of demonic energy into his body.
Si Mingye was struck by the Demon Emperor's demonic power, his body jolted violently, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Upon seeing this, Chu Wanwan was greatly alarmed and quickly flew to Si Mingye's side to support him. "Si Mingye, how are you?"
Si Mingye's face was pale. "I'm fine, but be careful of the Demon Emperor."
Seeing Si Mingye injured, the Demon Emperor laughed triumphantly. "If I'm not mistaken, you have a demonic body. Someone like you is destined to become a demon. The reason you haven't become a demon yet is because you've been surrounded by love since childhood, which has kept you away from the dangers of the world."
However, with the trace of magic I injected into your body, your demonic body will be awakened by this trace of magic, turning you into a dumping ground for evil emotions.
Fear, jealousy, resentment, and all other negative emotions in this world will rush towards you, engulf you! Until you become a demon!
"If you possess a demonic heart, you can still retain your reason and wisdom. But it seems you lack those qualities, meaning you will become a demon who only knows how to kill, a demon despised by the world!"
"At that time, let's see how you still claim to be righteous and high and mighty..."
The Demon Emperor's words echoed in the chaotic abyss. Chu Wanwan held Si Mingye tightly, her eyes filled with worry and anger.
"You demon, don't even think about hurting him!" Chu Wanwan glared at the Demon Emperor, the light of the Flowing Light Sword in her hand shining even brighter.
Si Mingye suppressed the surging demonic power within him, striving to remain conscious. "Wanwan, don't worry about me, keep fighting." His voice was weak but firm.
Chu Wanwan gritted her teeth, helped Si Mingye to a safe place, and turned to charge at the Demon Emperor again. "Today, I will seal you away and eliminate this threat forever."
The Demon Emperor sneered, "You? Now that your lover is about to become a demon, you still have the mind to fight me?"
Chu Wanwan remained unmoved, drawing talismans in the air, countless talismans flying towards the Demon Emperor like shooting stars. The Demon Emperor wielded his demonic power to resist the talisman attacks.
At this moment, the demonic power within Si Mingye's body became increasingly rampant. He felt his consciousness gradually blurring, and dark emotions began to spread in his heart.
Fear, jealousy, resentment and other emotions surged like a tide, and he struggled to resist them, his forehead covered in sweat.
"No, I cannot become a demon." Si Mingye cried out in his heart. He recalled all the moments he shared with Chu Wanwan, the days they fought together for the sake of all living beings.
While Chu Wanwan was fiercely battling the Demon Emperor, Si Mingye, relying on his powerful willpower, began to suppress the demonic power within his body. He circulated his divine power to resist the demonic power, attempting to expel it from his body.
Chu Wanwan also noticed Si Mingye's efforts, which strengthened her resolve to defeat the Demon Emperor as soon as possible. She unleashed her full power, and the power of the talisman continued to increase.
The Demon Emperor gradually felt the strain; he hadn't expected Chu Wanwan to unleash such power under such circumstances. "Hmph, even if you defeat me today, you can't stop your lover from becoming a demon."
Ignoring the Demon Emperor's words, Chu Wanwan continued her attack. Finally, through her relentless efforts, the Demon Emperor revealed an opening. Chu Wanwan seized the opportunity and thrust her sword at the Demon Emperor.
The Demon Emperor was unable to dodge in time and was pierced by the Flowing Light Sword, spitting out black blood. He looked at Chu Wanwan with resentment, "I will come back sooner or later. By then, your lover will probably have transformed into a demon. Such a powerful demon, who only knows how to kill, will become an aid to my demon race."
"I'd like to see how long you people from the Immortal Realm can keep jumping around!"
After saying this, the Demon Emperor transformed into a wisp of black smoke and disappeared into the abyss of chaos.
Chu Wanwan didn't chase after the Demon Emperor, but immediately returned to Si Mingye's side. At this moment, Si Mingye's condition was extremely critical; his face was pale, and his body was trembling constantly.
"Si Mingye, hold on." Chu Wanwan grasped Si Mingye's hand and channeled her divine power into his body to help him resist the demonic power.
With Chu Wanwan's help, Si Mingye gradually stabilized. He slowly opened his eyes, looked at Chu Wanwan, and smiled slightly. "Wanwan, I'm alright."
Chu Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief, but tears still streamed down her face. "Thank goodness, you're finally alright."
Si Mingye weakly raised his hand and wiped away Chu Wanwan's tears.
"Put me into your spatial storage while I still have my sanity. Once I truly become a demon, you might not be able to control me anymore!" Si Mingye said, a bitter smile playing on his lips.
Chu Wanwan looked at Si Mingye, her eyes filled with reluctance and worry, but she also understood that Si Mingye's words made sense. She nodded gently and used her divine power to put Si Mingye into the spatial spring.
She then looked at Xuanwu, who was lying on the ground on the verge of death, and put him into her spatial storage, placing him in the spiritual spring.
Back on the battlefield, Chu Wanwan looked at the corpses of the immortals on the ground, and a surge of grief and anger welled up in her heart.
She silently walked to the corpses, and with a wave of her hand, their broken bodies were pieced back together.
At this moment, the immortal cultivators also gathered around, their faces filled with sorrow and anger.
They didn't speak, but instead followed Chu Wanwan's example, trying to keep the bodies of the Immortal Realm warriors as intact as possible.
Chu Wanwan looked at them and said firmly, "The warriors of the Immortal Clan will not have sacrificed in vain. We must make the Demon Emperor pay the price for what he has done."
The immortal cultivators shouted in unison, "Avenge our warriors! Defeat the Demon Emperor!"
"Alright, let's burn the corpses of the Immortal Realm soldiers first."
"After that, our Immortal Realm will gather all its strength to enter the Demon Realm, kill the demons, and destroy the Demon Emperor!"
Chu Wanwan gave the instructions.
"Yes!" The soldiers of the Immortal Realm responded in unison, their morale soaring.
Chu Wanwan led the immortal cultivators to begin cleaning up the battlefield, burning the corpses of the immortal warriors. Most of the demon corpses had already turned to ashes, and a small number of them had also been burned completely.
Chu Wanwan led the immortal cultivators to set up camp around the Chaos Abyss, partly to protect the seal and partly to use the Chaos Abyss as the base camp for the immortal army, preparing for a future attack on the Demon Realm.
Within the spiritual spring, Si Mingye struggled against the demonic power within his body. His consciousness fluctuated between clarity and confusion. Whenever dark emotions surged into his heart, he would recall Chu Wanwan's smile and all the moments they had shared, using this to strengthen his resolve.
“If you live, do you know that the whole world will be at risk!” Xuan Mo looked at Si Mingye, who was desperately suppressing the demonic nature within him, and continued, “Once your demonic body is completely controlled by demonic power, the consequences will be unimaginable. Not only the Immortal Realm, but the entire world will be plunged into endless darkness and chaos.”
Si Mingye gritted his teeth, sweat dripping from his forehead. "I'll understand myself before I lose control..."
