"Beep, beep—"
The Nuwa Base control center has recaptured the signals from Fu Jiu and Hades.
The scene in the sky was immediately projected onto Gu Yujing and the others.
The moment the projection appeared, the tentacles pierced Hades, who was powerless to fight back. He barely managed to keep his balance and was bleeding from all seven orifices in a miserable state.
Nearly 19 hours had passed since the two left, and it was already past midnight.
The eastern sky was a mix of shades of gray and inky black, with drifting clouds moving freely in various shapes.
The dim light struggled and then drifted down, landing obscurely on the three-dimensional features of the two faces.
The darkness of the early morning did not affect their vision.
A cultivator's night vision ability does not inherently possess the color perception ability of daytime vision, but the brain, accustomed to human visual color perception, will automatically associate colors when night vision is formed.
Just like now, the Hades before Chang Le was exactly the desolate, pale, and almost broken figure he had imagined.
Without a doubt, the fog that had enveloped the ocean has already thinned out.
A broken mind, no hope of breakthrough, and depleted energy.
Hades was already at his last gasp.
The outcome was already predetermined, but Chang Le didn't have the habit of popping champagne halfway through the game. Before she could completely kill him, she chose to remain vigilant.
However, it seems that Hades has indeed run out of other options.
It turns out that Hades' biggest trump card in all his schemes was his absolute confidence in his own abilities, his belief that he was above every world and could control all life.
Is it lucky or unlucky?
If she hadn't cultivated "Heaven and Earth as One" in the [Agricultural Mystic Realm], it would have been difficult for her to communicate with other worlds like Jiu Fang Gui, and thus difficult for her to forcefully break through and suppress Hades in a short period of time.
Is this considered lucky?
Upon closer reflection, the old man from the Nong Shen Mystic Realm had predicted that she would face this calamity tomorrow night, and now it has come true. Indeed, as the old man said, she only survived safely by using the "Heaven and Earth from the Same Source" method. The old man also said that this method had acquired its power only after being improved by the Nine Directions Return.
Did Jiu Fanggui anticipate something all along, or was it just a coincidence?
This can be considered lucky.
Unconsciously, the image of that small courtyard resurfaced in her mind. There was always a young man draped in golden light waiting for her to come home at the courtyard gate, and if she went inside, she could hear the laughter of Jiu Fanggui and Qi Qi, who were locked in a love-hate relationship.
Memories flashed by, all thoughts settled, and the flickering flame in my heart stopped swaying, becoming stable, though not burning brightly.
Chang Le reached out, and the tips of the six ice shards came together, pointing directly at Hades: "You can give your last words now."
Hades suddenly let out a heavy sigh, and his whole body seemed to age instantly.
He pleaded, "Huai Xia's crime does not warrant death. Please spare a pure bloodline for my Ying family."
Chang Le scrutinized him for a moment, then suddenly asked, "You left something inside him too."
Hades's kind and benevolent demeanor shattered abruptly, his face contorting into a ferocious expression, his eyes filled with malice: "How did you know?"
He then realized what was happening, his features contorted even more, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "He actually told you even this? Isn't he afraid I'll kill him right now?"
Chang Le smiled faintly: "He just made the choice that a smart person would make. Just like Ying Shaochuan."
A critical strike.
Hades's face grew increasingly ashen.
But he stubbornly gritted his teeth and held his breath, saying each word clearly, "I don't regret it! I didn't lose!"
In an instant, a cloud of black mist rose from his body and transformed into a crying black bird.
The black flames around the Black Bird burned fiercely, as powerful as when that dynasty was born thousands of years ago, swooping down with a black, fiery tail that blotted out the sky. Wherever it passed, the sea of clouds turned into a boiling sea of white mist.
Chang Le stepped forward, and lightning spread inch by inch beneath his feet, covering a thousand miles in an instant. A roar suddenly arose, and countless lightning snakes condensed to envelop the closing ice shards, just like their master, just like an ancient sword breaking through the power. Their aura rose steadily and suddenly they were released from the bow!
Under everyone's watchful eyes, the Black Bird and the Ice Thunder Longsword collided slowly, like a scene from a movie in slow motion.
The drones and satellite photography were briefly short-circuited due to interference from the turbulent water vapor and energy. When the signal was restored, Chang Le flew up through the hazy smoke and dust, his tentacles boldly and decisively piercing Hades' heart, brow, and lower dantian.
This time, Hades was no longer able to heal his wounds.
He was lifted up by the tentacles, his hateful gaze fixed on Chang Le: "You didn't win, Chang Le. You were defeated long ago. You and I are the same; there are no winners!"
Chang Le remained silent, his tentacles extending within his body until they found his origin: "Calamity Shadow, may you have a safe journey."
"kick--"
The tentacles, shrouded in black mist, were pulled away, still attached to blood and fragments.
Hades' body arched upwards with the force of the impact, his blood-stained mouth opened, and in a low, hoarse voice filled with the sinister chill of hell, he clearly uttered a vicious curse:
"Nine Directions of Eternal Joy, I await your eternal solitude."
The low, fading sound dissipated in the wind, along with his falling body, turning into black smoke and dissipating as the wind blew.
The wind brushed past my ears, and the shadow of calamity vaguely brought back a sound I hadn't heard in a long time.
"I'm willing to make a deal with you. My name is Ying Shaochuan."
"Perhaps, as a descendant of the Ying family, I can trust you and work with you to change this world."
"My Lord, Cesis is willing to follow you in the pursuit of the ultimate absolute order."
"Elder, my lifelong wish is nothing more than to shed the filthy, seductive bones of this life."
Faces flashed before my eyes, gradually blurring, gradually overlapping with the faces from another world, the faces from the very beginning of the story.
