Wen Yu watched as the baru demon beast avatar slid into the spleen of Bai's body, then paused there.
It was as if a guest had found their room...
Wen Yu could vaguely see that apart from the heart, which was empty, there were wisps of hazy light and shadow in the other organs of Bai.
Ye Nan, Arcade, Baru, and a top-heavy dragon-like creature...
Bai let out a heavy belch. He raised his head to meet Wen Yu's light yellow pupils, seemingly unbothered by the exposure of his abilities.
"I'll send you back," Bai said, and at that, Wen Yu put aside his astonishment at the Five Flower Cave Heaven. He nodded and descended beside Bai.
The two walked out of the Sovereign's Palace and left the castle cluster, not exchanging a word until they reached the teleportation point. Bai activated the teleportation array for Wen Yu and then nodded to him.
"Until we meet again."
"Goodbye."
After a simple exchange, the teleportation array began to glow. When the white light enveloped him, Wen Yu felt a moment of dizziness. When he regained his senses, he found himself back on Earth.
He quickly oriented himself and then flew towards Beijing.
...
Three months later, in the Demon Palace.
A pale mist shrouded Cold Storage Zone Four, with cold coffins lined up in a row. The cold air, combined with bursts of colorful energy flows, made this place resemble the Realm of the Dead.
Amidst this eerie atmosphere, Wen Yu stood in front of the first cold coffin on the right, staring intently at the tall and strong figure within.
Raging Creation Energy surged from within Wen Yu, condensing into one node after another around him. Each time a node formed, it would dive into the corpse in the cold coffin as if it were a living thing.
In front of Wen Yu, the manual for the Creation Energy gifted by the Demon Lord floated in mid-air, automatically flipping pages with Wen Yu's thoughts.
For several years, this Wen Yu avatar had been busy here. Apart from completing the tasks assigned by the Demon Lord, he was also secretly cultivating his own "secret weapon."
And today marked the time for harvest!
The Creation Energy grew increasingly fierce, and as the last node surged into the corpse, it suddenly convulsed.
It twitched as if having a seizure, and the intensity of the convulsions increased, the energy fluctuations growing stronger. Finally, when its aura became so overwhelming that even Wen Yu had to take a step back, the transformation came to an end.
The corpse abruptly opened its eyes.
It was as if endless stars surged out from its gaze, and the immense aura made Wen Yu instinctively retreat three steps—this person, even though "brought back to life" and having suffered a significant loss in power from the turmoil of the Creation Energy, was still not something Wen Yu could compare to.
If a horizontal comparison of strength were made, it would likely be on par with the fully powered Feili—a level Wen Yu had yet to reach!
However, the hazy connection of the soul allowed Wen Yu to completely relax. He looked at the slowly rising soul puppet, unable to suppress his admiration.
"Powerful strength, an unbeatable aura, the name of a sovereign is well-deserved!"
"Welcome back, Aogules..."
Wen Yu gently bowed to show his respect, and within the cold coffin, Aogules slowly raised his head.
He first glanced at Wen Yu, then surveyed the surroundings. His imposing aura gradually weakened until he stood up, leaning against the coffin wall as he stepped out and stood beside Wen Yu.
"Master..."
A deep and hoarse voice came from Aogules. Seeing this, Wen Yu smiled and nodded.
"So, do you still remember everything that happened to you?"
"Only vaguely..."
Aogules replied. After that, his eyes suddenly drifted, as if recalling his final battle in life.
But Wen Yu saw no need to delve further—known intelligence had already indicated that the sovereign Aogules faced was a crippled version, akin to a stray dog fleeing in panic, having lost most of his power. Discussing that battle held no value.
He simply patted Aogules' shoulder, then activated the Netherworld, pulling Aogules back into it.
