The moment the gates of the Demon Palace were fully opened, Lan Ruoli's blood boiled!
In the main hall of the Demon Palace stood a ten-thousand-foot-tall female statue—its face was exactly the same as Lan Ruoli's!
"This is impossible..."
She staggered backward, only to see the golden scepter in the statue's hand suddenly light up.
Countless fragments of memory were forcibly poured into his mind:
In the final years of the Demon Court, the last Empress Lan Qingtian discovered that the source of the pollution was the Dark Origin. Just as she was about to seal it away, she was betrayed by the Demon Lord Luo Hou, whom she trusted most!
Do you remember now?
The man in the black robe suddenly pulled up his hood.
Suddenly, a sinister face was revealed; it was none other than the Demon Ancestor, Luo Hou!
Looking at Lan Ruoli, his voice suddenly turned icy, "Back then, it was you who almost ruined my plans."
Just as Luo Hou was about to make his move.
A tall, dark figure suddenly blocked Lan Ruoli's path—it was none other than Cang Yuan, the prisoner of the Divine Race's Patrol Angel.
The chains binding his body snapped one by one, revealing his true form corrupted by the source of darkness—his chest was inlaid with a bronze lamp identical to the one worn by Luo Hou!
"Lord Demon Ancestor."
Cang Yuan knelt on one knee. "A three-hundred-thousand-year plan, it's time to close the net."
Lan Ruoli felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave: So, Demon Ancestor Luo Hou... really is the mastermind behind it all?!
"What you see is only what the source of darkness wants you to see."
Luo Hou suddenly crushed the bronze lamp at his heart!
The moment the flames exploded, the memories of the Empress in Lan Ruoli's mind shattered inch by inch, replaced by—
On the altar of the Demon Court.
The real Rahu was covered in blood and was desperately sealing a bronze lamp into his heart!
And the person who ambushed him... was none other than Cang Yuan's past life!
"Do you understand now?"
Luo Hou wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. "The darkness...it's always been them controlling it!"
Cang Yuan laughed wildly: "Too late!"
The bronze lamp on his chest swelled up and transformed into a phantom of a thousand-foot-tall black tree.
In various parts of the Heavenly Profound Divine Realm, all the corrupted cultivators simultaneously self-destructed, their blood energy surging wildly towards the black-red heart in the sky!
"Thump! Thump!"
The heartbeat grew louder and louder, and the outline of facial features appeared on the surface of the heart...
"Since the appearance of the World Tree is destined to unleash the corruption of the dark side..."
Luo Hou suddenly plunged the black sword into his own chest!
Amidst the gushing blood, a sword light that traversed the thirty-three heavens descended!
"Then let's cut down the World Tree too!"
Where the sword light passed.
The World Tree collapsed with a deafening roar, and the Pangu Heart, which had long been corrupted by darkness, let out a mournful scream!
"Click—"
The moment Luo Hou's sword struck, the sky over the Land of Return to Nothingness shattered like a mirror!
The once stable laws of heaven and earth began to twist wildly—
......
Meanwhile, in various parts of the Tianxuan Immortal Realm.
Although the cultivators who were drenched by the black rain had turned into black stone statues, their eyes were still moving!
Even more terrifying is—
Inside their stone bodies, something was vaguely wriggling... but in the next second, the bodies of these corrupted cultivators began to expand rapidly!
In the blink of an eye, it was like a balloon filled with gas.
And it faintly exuded a terrifying aura, as if it were about to explode.
Just as expected!
These corrupted cultivators instantly exploded!
Puff puff puff—
Immediately afterwards, tens of thousands of black tentacles burst forth from the body, weaving together in the air to form a giant net that blotted out the sky.
The center of the giant network.
A dark red heart, covered in blood vessels and emitting a thick black mist, is rapidly taking shape!
"Thump! Thump!"
The black and red heart suspended in the sky beat wildly, its surface cracking open with countless fissures, and thick black blood poured down like a torrential rain!
Every drop of black blood that lands transforms into a dark puppet.
In the blink of an eye, a million-strong dark army swept across the sky!
The corrupted monks suddenly knelt down in unison, their skulls cracking open.
One after another, black tentacles burst out of his skull.
In the air, they intertwine to form a giant net that blots out the sky!
"Welcome to the Awakening of the Dark Origin Matrix!"
Above the Great Thunderclap Temple, the masked man knelt in fanatical worship, a maniacal smile spreading across his face. "Three hundred thousand years of planning, today it is finally complete!"
However, just as the giant black net was about to envelop the entire Tianxuan Divine Realm.
Inside the upside-down demon court.
Lan Ruoli suddenly floated up!
Her newly formed palms burst forth with dazzling divine light, and a mark identical to that of the upside-down demon palace statue appeared between her brows.
"I remember now..."
A flood of memories swept through the entire venue—
Her voice suddenly became ethereal and distant, "I am not Lan Ruoli, I am the last empress of the Demon Court—Lan Qingtian!"
As soon as he finished speaking...
A radiant glow burst forth from her body, transforming into nine chains that pierced through the void.
The next second, these chains suddenly appeared in the Heavenly Profound Divine Realm and rapidly wrapped around the black and red heart.
Wherever the chains passed, the dark puppets crumbled!
"I see."
Luo Hou watched this scene unfold.
He suddenly burst into laughter, "Since the World Tree has been destroyed, then..."
He abruptly plunged the black sword into his brow, declaring, "With my divine soul as the guide, I will reforge the World Tree!"
The seven-colored blood gushed out, outlining fragments of a brand new World Tree in the air.
Those fragments were like living things, frantically devouring the dark pollution!
Cang Yuan finally revealed a look of horror: "Are you insane?! Without a vessel to withstand it, rebuilding the World Tree will annihilate your soul and spirit!"
