The morning light trickled in from the high window lattices, faintly spreading across the thick dark carpet of Shengxian Terrace. The chilly, cold air of late autumn, mixed with moisture, spread from the heavy shadows of the distant golden palace, as if to freeze the whole person.

The Ascension Platform is located in the very center of the Immortal Emperor Palace. It is the place of ascension for Qianyuan Continent, and the Heavenly Gate will only open here.

At this moment, all the disciples of the Immortal Alliance and Quanxing, who were originally at loggerheads with each other, were silent and solemn, staring at the red figure on the stage.

In the middle of the Ascension Platform was a huge Heavenly Mirror. When the girl's magic power was poured into it, a golden road to heaven rose from the mirror, and the top was immersed in the vast clouds, illuminating half of the sky. At the top of the road to heaven, behind the clouds, there seemed to be a door slowly opening, leaking out thousands of clear lights surrounded by immortal energy. It was the door to the Purple Palace!

There was no thunder or lightning, and the scene was truly peaceful.

The spiritual power of the stairway to heaven became more and more abundant, and the light became more and more dazzling. The gap in the sky gate became larger and larger, and the layers of strange clouds spun rapidly, like a huge whirlpool on the sea. Yao Yue stared at the road to heaven solemnly, took a step forward, and disappeared into the golden light. At the same time, the demon bell in the palace, which had not been rung for ten thousand years since the war, suddenly rang loudly -

"There is demonic energy! It's a demon cultivator!"

Instantly, a huge teleportation array lit up around the palace, and demon cultivators continued to emerge from it. Rows of soldiers followed one after another, just like layers of rolling waves in the sea. The iron armor flashed a cold light in the morning light, and the shouts of killing shook the world. The scene would probably make a timid person tremble with fear.

Xing Yuan frowned, waved the Qianji Fan to raise the Liang Yi Liuhe Formation, and shouted angrily: "Stop them!"

Many of the fallen demons from the Star Machine Pavilion fled to the Demon Realm, but this was the first time in ten thousand years that someone dared to release a teleportation array and go directly into the heart of the Immortal Alliance.

call--

The vast sea of ​​swords with the Sky-breaking Sword Intent cleared the way in an instant. The man in the lead was wearing a black gold-woven robe that fluttered in the wind. His sharp and handsome face had blood-red eyes and strange markings, which made people feel an unspeakable fear from the bottom of their hearts.

The pressure of that magical power was so strong that everyone could hear their own heartbeats hitting their chests, and even their hands and feet felt slightly numb.

With a swish sound, the Huangji Tian Sword was unsheathed. The sword tip entered between the eyebrows and came out from the back of the head. It flew several feet into the air and nailed the nearest person to the ground.

"If you don't want to die, get out of the way."

The tone was flat, but every word was like a golden hook and iron halberd. The young man held the blood-stained sword and walked towards the Ascension Platform step by step. There was no expression on his cold face like ice and snow, but if you look closely at his blood-red eyes, it would make you feel terrified.

The look in his eyes was like that of a beast in a cage that was extremely desperate and on the verge of going crazy.

Below the Ascension Platform, blood flows like a river, and it is purgatory on earth; above the Ascension Platform, there are long steps leading to the gods, and golden light shines everywhere.

The hoarse voice of the sinister Taoist priest came into her ears with strange pleasure——

"Congratulations to the fairy on her ascension. I invite you to enjoy this magnificent scene together."

The girl in red turned around slowly, and the moment she saw the man's face clearly, she seemed as if she was stung. A strange light flashed in her eyes, as if it was an unbelievable surprise, or a helpless sigh.

——The soul-forgetting needle was taken out.

The golden light in front of him did not allow him to move forward. The young man tightly grasped the Imperial Heavenly Sword. Veins on his hand bulged out from the excessive force. His face was extremely scary: "...Why?"

Why do I have to leave? Why do I have to take away my memories?!

“You promised me…” He took a deep, trembling breath, feeling his lungs filled with air mixed with blood, dust, and rust. It was so hot that he tightly grasped his chest, which was covered with blood and flesh, as if his internal organs were curled up in pain. “We will not be separated until we get the Sky-breaking Sword Intention… You promised me!!!”

The girl looked at him quietly, and there seemed to be an indescribable emotion in her eyes. After a while, she closed her eyes, and all her sadness and attachment disappeared without a trace at that moment:

"Stop killing people and go back."

Jiang Mi stared at the fairy in red in front of him, as if he wanted to completely engrave the soft tail of her eyelashes and the beautiful and delicate curve of her face in his soul, so that it would never be erased by reincarnation and time. But it was too late, her soul was gradually leaving her body and flying into the void.

He took a breath of bloody air, flew up and swung his sword with all his strength. The sword light shook the ladder to heaven fiercely amid the roar, blaspheming the way of heaven with his mortal body!

The earth shook and the sky and earth changed color!

The next moment, the ferocious thunder of heavenly punishment submerged his entire body!

He was swallowed by lightning again and again, and came out bathed in blood again and again. Each sword strike was more fierce and violent, and he put in more effort. Two lines of blood and tears flowed from his abyss-like red eyes. I don’t know if it was because of the blood accumulated in his throat, but his crying was hoarse and sharp, and it was almost out of tune, like sandpaper scraping metal, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable:

"You can't leave... You can't leave!! Come back!!!"

In the hurricane of burning mana like a waterfall, the long steps to the gods shook with a muffled sound, and dense cracks fell from the sky. The immortal platform shook violently, and everyone hastily retreated in the rain of falling rocks, only that man remained motionless. Blood kept flowing out of the wounds struck by lightning, and small pools of blood accumulated on the ground. There was no fear in his eyes, only desperate pleading.

"Don't go... please... please..."

The glittering red soul did not waver at all, and gradually turned into countless flying light points, rushing towards the sky. And the completely opened gate in the sky suddenly closed at the moment the red light entered, shaking the sky!

——She left, as unexpectedly as she appeared, leaving him forever in this vast world.

The golden light completely dissipated as the gate closed, and the girl in red closed her eyes and fell into his arms. Her beautiful face was within reach, and he could touch her soft lips with his hand, but... it was just an empty shell.

He pressed his forehead against the girl's cheek, and his violently trembling body finally calmed down after a long time. It seemed that the boiling sea was finally covered by a more desolate and dark despair. He picked her up with his bloodstained hands and staggered to his feet:

"Let's...go home..."
