Zuan laughed: "You want to die in front of me and go somewhere else? Then my trip will have been for nothing."
Now that he is the Netherworld Emperor, he is in charge of death and reincarnation. This guy had the misfortune of dying right in front of him. If his soul were to escape, that would truly be a ghost story.
Then, with a casual grab, he pulled the demonic phantom in mid-air into his hand and strangled it.
The Venerable Wanzu trembled all over. At this moment, he felt a natural pressure and soul fear from the other party, as if the other party was his natural enemy and there was a bloodline suppression.
No, this kind of pressure is more terrifying than natural enemies. When he was weak, he did encounter some powerful natural enemies, but the fear he felt then was far less than it is now.
It was as if with just a single thought from the other party, he would be completely annihilated, leaving not a trace of his soul in the world.
"Who did you just say you were coming back to find?" Zu An exerted force on his hand, and the other person's figure gradually appeared, struggling in the air.
"I admit I was a bit too loud just now. Please be magnanimous and just let it go as if it were a fart." Venerable Wanzu's face was now filled with fear and obsequiousness.
Sang Qian: "..."
Zheng Dan: "..."
Over the years, the two had seen countless masters. Generally speaking, masters have their pride and arrogance, but they had never seen such a servile side of them.
Of course, they also knew that all of this was because Azu was too powerful. They still vividly remembered the arrogant face of that monster towards the two women.
The two women couldn't help but glance at the tall figure in front of them, their eyes filled with even more love and admiration.
“Answer my question,” Zuan said calmly.
"Will you let me go if I answer your question?" Venerable Wanzu asked, his voice trembling.
“Answer me and I’ll give you a quick death.” Zuan’s tone was calm, and he didn’t even bother to lie to him.
The Venerable Wanzu's eyes widened, thinking, "What kind of conditions are these? Since I'm going to die anyway, why should I tell you?"
The next second, Zuan casually wiped his hand aside, and the image of the Avici Hell appeared in his mind.
His whole body trembled instantly. He realized that there were such terrifying places in the world, and that being able to die quickly was a blessing.
Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately said, "What exactly do you want to ask? I will answer to the best of my knowledge."
"The demons split into three groups: one is the sealed land, one is the Tomb of Ten Thousand Dragons, and the other is you?" Zuan asked.
"Yes, yes, yes," Venerable Wanzu replied, then cautiously glanced at the other party's expression, feeling that the answer was too brief. So, without waiting for the other party to ask further questions, he automatically filled in the gaps, "You should already know about the other two routes. The main purpose of the third route is to instigate war among the human race. War and death can bring destruction and plunge the entire world into chaos. The world barrier will also become weak and damaged, at which point the demon army can directly break through the world barrier and descend upon this world."
Zuan fell into deep thought. At his current level, he had vaguely grasped the threshold of some of the world's laws.
The world barrier protects this world, and the primordial energy of heaven and earth allows many cultivators to strengthen themselves and cultivate through this.
However, the existence of cultivators, demons, and sea creatures can also make this world prosperous, thus making the world barrier more stable.
However, if the world descends into chaos and war rages, the massive death and countless bones will pollute the once vibrant world. Often, evil spirits and ghosts will proliferate, as recorded in history books.
If there are no external enemies, after several decades or even hundreds of years, with peace prevailing throughout the world, the entire world will gradually recover its vitality.
But now there are extraterrestrial demons eyeing us covetously. If that happens, the main force of those demons will take advantage of the situation and the whole world will be plunged into chaos.
Zuan's expression was icy. These demons really went to great lengths to come up with so many ways to cause trouble.
Although he now controls the world and the world barrier is much stronger and more solid than before, it is hard to guarantee that no accidents will happen if these demons are allowed to hide in the world and cause trouble.
"Who is your leader? Where are the others?"
Venerable Wanzu immediately replied, "We have two leaders this time: the Doomsday Wraith and the Plague Demon Lord."
"Is the Doomsday Wraith a spirit? What abilities does it have?" Zuan pondered that if the Doomsday Wraith was a spirit, things would be much easier, as his own abilities would be the natural counter to its abilities.
Venerable Wanzu hurriedly shook his head: "The Doomsday Wraith is not a dead soul, but rather it is skilled at bewitching people's hearts, amplifying the dark side and desires in people's hearts, creating disputes and conflicts in the world, and eventually evolving into war."
"As for what other abilities he may have, we demons are wary of each other, and betrayal and sneak attacks are commonplace. So no one will reveal their abilities or trump cards. Therefore, I don't know what else he can do. I only know that he is much stronger than me."
"How does that compare to the Shadow Fiend, the Bloodthirsty Crocodile Ancestor, and the Lord of All Changes?" Zaun needed some points of reference for comparison.
“It’s difficult to compare,” Venerable Wanzu said with a troubled expression. “If it were a head-on arena battle, the Doomsday Wraith, the Plague Lord, and the Shadow Demon of Fear would be on the same level, or at least slightly stronger, but not enough to create an overwhelming advantage. However, the Doomsday Wraith and the Plague Lord are not good at head-on battles, nor do they engage in direct combat. Instead, they fully utilize their abilities to put their enemies in dire straits. So, if a real conflict were to break out, the Shadow Demon of Fear, the Bloodthirsty Crocodile Ancestor, and the Flame Demon Sea Monster combined would not be a match for the Doomsday Wraith or the Plague Lord.”
