The warning from the Heaven-Piercing Immortal Emperor made Wen Yu's heart sink.
Before entering the Heavenly Palace Treasure Land, the Heaven-Piercing Immortal Emperor used "power and truth" as bait, leading Wen Yu to willingly step into this drama. After experiencing the looting of the lower levels of the Heavenly Palace, the teachings of the demon lord, and the memories of the Heavenly Dao, Wen Yu was thoroughly satisfied with the gains from this trip.
However, compared to what he had already obtained, the truth of the apocalypse and the sovereign was undoubtedly of greater value. This became even more apparent to Wen Yu after witnessing the tragic experiences of the Immortal Heroic World!
The recent alert from the Heaven-Piercing Immortal Emperor clearly indicated to Wen Yu that this matter was not over yet and that there would be further twists and turns…
It might have been that Wen Yu’s actions were too slow or maybe the Heaven-Piercing Immortal Emperor sensed that time was running out. Noticing Wen Yu’s hesitant attitude, the Heaven-Piercing Immortal Emperor snorted coldly.
“Be quick!”
This familiar tone made it clear to Wen Yu—the Heaven-Piercing Immortal Emperor would not provide further explanations.
With this thought in mind, Wen Yu decisively walked towards the nearest mural.
……
His fingers lightly touched the mural, and a cold sensation spread from his fingertips. Wen Yu felt a gentle wave of spiritual energy instantly transfer into his mind.
Then, the spiritual wave transformed into a holographic image that appeared directly in Wen Yu's mind.
On a lush green earth, a young child was walking on the vast expanse with a huge backpack on their back…
This was the life of the Heaven-Piercing Immortal Emperor…
……
“Bang.”
The chess piece fell, but this time, the force used by the sovereign was undoubtedly greater.
The demon lord beside him pretended not to know and quickly placed a piece as well.
Then…
“Boom!”
The chessboard was flipped, and pieces of two colors splashed everywhere, raining down like a shower from the sky.
“Sorry, the game is over!”
The sovereign stood up coldly. Seeing the black light swirling around the demon lord once again, the sovereign sneered.
“I’m not joking anymore; this time, the game really is over! Do you think I haven’t checked the things left by Heaven-Piercing? Do you think I haven't added another layer of restrictions to the truths left behind by Heaven-Piercing? Do you think there’s anything in this world that can escape my gaze? The only reason I wasted so much time here with you is that I didn't want to waste the Demon Realm Origin Power for no reason, and…”
“I really want to see what your back-up plan is!”
“And now, it’s time to close the net!”
After the sovereign finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the edge of the Barrier, as if taking a stroll.
Then, a large hand radiating white light gently touched the black Barrier.
In an instant, the two colors of light intertwined endlessly, but the outcome was remarkably clear-cut!
The white light, like a scalpel, precisely tore through the black Barrier, causing the demon lord’s avatar to turn pale in an instant.
In the next second, the sovereign forcefully tore with both hands!
“Rip…”
The sound of fabric tearing echoed, and even though the demon lord continuously mobilized the Demon Realm Origin Power to reinforce the Barrier, it still could not withstand the might of the sovereign.
The white light rapidly eroded the black Barrier, and it wasn't long before the entire Barrier was washed over in a blanket of white. The sovereign then turned around to look at the demon lord’s avatar, whose face was ashen and breath extremely weak.
“See you next time! By the way, I won this round of chess…”
“Bang!”
The Barrier shattered into pieces, and the figure of the sovereign had already vanished.
Seeing this scene, the demon lord sighed, yet there was no hint of despair or defeat in his eyes.
“Truly, as reckless as ever…”
