The once magnificent Human City, with its myriad of phenomena, became hazy in the bloody mist, leaving only a blurred outline. Streaks of blood descended from the sky—bloodstains from a great terror, staining the entire sky.

In the center of the firmament, a red and yellow mixed crack was slowly opening.

Neither the Celestials nor the warriors of Earth City could clearly see what was happening within the swirling blood clouds in the firmament. They only knew that from time to time, cold moonlight flashed, Battle Intent surged into the sky, and then a more intense blood rain poured down.

“This blood rain is not right!”

Dong Ge Yu suddenly shivered. She felt a chill surge within her body, an evil and powerful Qi that filled her entire being. Her body rapidly grew taller, and two horns sprouted from her head.

And she suddenly had a strong urge to eat grass.

“I... I’ve turned into...”

Dong Ge Yu pulled a mirror from her in my arms, exclaiming in shock:

“A Minotaur!?”

She was not an isolated case; the Executioners were all gradually transforming into demons.

The only ones unchanged in the field were the Celestials; their Aura was merely a little weaker.

This meant that the warriors of Earth City and the Mortals of Human City, as long as they were touched by the blood rain, would likely turn into demons!

“Don’t you rely on all living beings?”

The Blood God’s voice echoed from the Void Realm, filled with anger and sarcasm:

“Now, all living beings have been transformed into demons by my Rebirth through a drop of blood. Where will your power of all living beings come from?”

“If you are unwilling to leave with me, then perish with this world...”

His voice slowly faded.

It seemed that before he left, his gaze lingered on Ying Bing.

The Blood God stopped speaking, but the blood clouds and the crack within them remained.

“Why is the crack still expanding without the support of the remnant body?”

Li Mo knew that the Blood God had entered the crack, and when he reappeared, he would be even more terrifying.

But he couldn't figure out what kind of power, stronger than the Blood God, could tear apart the Tianhuang Domain.

He had wanted to ask Ice Cube, but Ice Cube had remained silent, only staring at the sun in the sky.

The great sun, within the hazy blood clouds, appeared strangely demonic.

A cryptic light flashed in Li Mo’s eyes, then vanished.

That’s right.

Someone wanted to trap Ice Cube in the Tianhuang Domain, but because of his appearance, their plan failed.

Now, the opponent had chosen an even more desperate method... even though the Blood God and the opponent were enemies.

But when facing Ice Cube, they tacitly made the same choice.

Destroy the Tianhuang Domain, along with everything within it!

Ying Bing looked at Li Mo and softly said:

“You...”

“You said Ice Cube doesn’t lie to naive children.”

“...”

Ying Bing pursed her lips, wanting to maintain her composure and tell him that she wouldn't trick him.

But meeting his burning gaze, she knew that all excuses were meaningless.

“But your Yi Soul and Qi are running out, and the power of all living beings is exhausted. Staying here won’t help...”

“It’s alright, I still have a method.”

“What?”

“Fighting King Profound Meaning.”

“Stop messing around.” Ying Bing, uncharacteristically anxious, reached out to pinch his waist, but he caught her hand and pulled her into his embrace.

She froze for a moment but didn't struggle free.

“Ice Cube, if I pull out that fire poker and project the Small World to the outside, will it work?”

“It could work, the Tianhuang Domain isn’t a real world like the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, but you haven’t reached the Inner Scenery yet...”

Ying Bing lowered her head and said faintly:

“You won’t be able to bear it.”

“What will happen?”

“Your Inner Scenery will collapse, your Physical Body will be annihilated, your Yi Soul will dissipate. The best outcome is losing all your power and becoming weaker than before you started practicing martial arts, and you’ll never be able to cultivate again. The worst outcome...”

Ying Bing closed her eyes, unwilling to continue.

“That’s good then.” Li Mo breathed a sigh of relief.

Ying Bing's usually cool and detached demeanor, now in a state of confusion, was already a bit dazed, and her current stunned look had a lovable, lost-Soul quality.

It is recommended that the boy with a large head version of Ice Cube reference this expression.

“As long as we can still get married, it’s fine.”

Ying Bing only heard the ease in his tone, and only felt herself being held even tighter.

So tight that she was pressed against his chest, able to hear the beating of his heart just a wall away.

After a long while, she finally looked up:

“Understood.”

She left, carrying the Tianhuang Domain, and plunged into the impenetrable blood clouds.

Li Mo gazed at her clear and exquisite figure, wrapped in moonlight, as she departed. He raised a hand to touch his chest; there was a faint fragrance and a patch of melted dampness.

It’s quite reasonable for ice to melt and drip a few drops of water... He let out a long breath and said to those below:

“Everyone, come in.”

The people of Mo City were also affected by the blood rain, transforming into demons, but the martial arts they practiced were originally derived from demons.

So, not only did they not lose their sanity, but they also became stronger.

The Celestials’ faces turned pale one by one. Now they knew that vying for the imperial throne was meaningless.

The increasingly strong evil Aura from within the crack made them unable to muster any courage to resist.

“This world is about to perish. When the nest is overturned, no egg remains intact. What the outcome will be, I don’t know, but it will definitely be worse than it is now.”

Li Mo’s gaze swept across the map:

“There isn’t much time left. Leave the Blood God to me. The rest of the burden, I entrust to all of you.”

“What do you need us to do?”

Pojun, representing the Celestials, spoke. They had no retreat; Li Mo, an outsider, had stayed, let alone them.

The Executioners of Mo City... or rather, the demons, needed no further explanation.

“Celestials, go to various parts of the Celestial City’s territory. Use your Innate power to maintain the Celestial City so that it doesn’t fall apart in a short time.”

“Everyone from Mo City, go to the places where the blood rain has fallen and do your old job.”

“Oh, and wear your Executioners’ insignia to distinguish yourselves from true demons.”

This brief meeting concluded, and everyone went in groups to their designated places.

If they didn't hurry, with the shifting stars and the rise of Dragons and snakes, this map might soon lose its landmark significance.

The existence within the crack would also return... Everyone had left, and the world became much quieter.

A scene of apocalypse, yet with a strange, all-encompassing silence.

Li Mo sat in place, adjusting his breathing, trying to recover his Qi, gaining every possible moment.

A moment later.

He vaguely sensed a ripple from above his head and silently pulled out the fire poker, which had been stuck in the ground for a long time, from his Small World.

Strangely, this time there was no resistance; it seemed to have been waiting for a long time as well.

Dong, dong—

The crack now resembled a twisted scar on the Celestial City, or a constantly expanding and contracting blood vessel, spewing forth blood clouds and endless gloom.

Li Mo could see that the other side of the crack was also a cave-heaven-like existence, somewhat similar to the Otherworld, with sun, moon, stars, mountains, and rivers, but all permeated with a strong Death Qi.

Just then, the mountains within the crack began to stir. It turned out that they were not mountains at all, but his remnant body. Each time he approached the crack, the black Qi caused ripples in space.

His body had been dead for an unknown amount of time.

But even today, it still made Li Mo feel immense pressure; an ordinary person would probably fall into a terrifying mutation just by looking at it.

When he 'squeezed' out of the crack, Li Mo finally saw his full appearance.

It was a reddish-yellow corpse, with a human torso, hair withered like dead centipedes, and grotesque scars on its trunk and limbs.

A face the size of the Celestial City carried an evil sense of beauty, with a bloody hole in the center of its brow, seemingly pierced by something sharp, adding a touch of ferocity to its beauty.

Its limbs wriggled and changed, as if containing a thousand forms and intentions, condensed from the limbs of a thousand living beings.

“Now do you know what kind of existence you are fighting against?”

“...”

Li Mo looked up, scratched the back of his head, and two strands of hair fell out.

In front of this terrifying existence, he was not even an ant, but the fire in his eyes grew even more intense.

The Ruyi Golden Cudgel in the Small World had been pulled out, and the power of the world was unprecedentedly vast, igniting the Great Sage's Divine Form behind him, burning fiercely.

He realized this wasn't enough, but... it wasn't just the Celestial City that was plunged into darkness, but also the Tianhuang Domain, her world. fгeewebnovёl.com

As the figure stepped out of the crack, the crack began to spread like tentacles.

Boom—

The Celestial City's main hall collapsed with a crash.

In the sky, Ying Bing had already transformed into the bright moon illuminating this Tianhuang Domain. Her gaze swept downwards, seeing shattered mountains and rivers, a scene of devastation.

Through the apocalypse, she seemed to see the figure still in the Celestial City.

“If the Tianhuang Domain is gone, Mo City will also be gone.”

Ying Bing sighed faintly, separating a portion of the Tianhuang Domain's power from her body and sending it towards the Celestial City.

Then, a seemingly ordinary seed emerged from her Dantian.

Moonlight descended from the clear sky, illuminating layers of blood clouds.

“You were supposed to perish with us, why can you return like this?!”

In his confusion, Li Mo heard the Blood God’s roar.

He saw the moonlight, and his mind couldn't help but go blank; the power it contained was beyond his current understanding.

This moonlight restricted the Blood God's power to the limit that the Tianhuang Domain could withstand.

Woo—

The sound of a hammer, accompanied by wind and thunder, erupted with immense Divine Power. In an instant, he became a meteor shooting up from the ground.

This one hammer was the Seven Cycles of Qiankun combined into one; with his current mastery of the hammer Dao, he no longer needed the seven consecutive hammers as a prelude.

The fire of the Fallen Star Flame intertwined with karmic fire, trailing a hundred-mile-long flame that scorched and twisted the myriad demonic forms surging in the blood clouds. freёwebnovel.com

“What a pity...” The Blood God narrowed his eyes and covered the sky with a palm.

The Profound Truth of collapse spread like water, without any trickery, the palm descending like the end of all things.

This palm stirred up a surge of Qi that exploded.

Just from the palm wind, Li Mo felt his blood and Qi solidify, and the flames swirling around him flickered like a candle about to burn out.

Boom—

Hammer and palm collided. For the first time, Li Mo felt a sense of powerlessness from the power of the world. Fine cracks, like those on porcelain, appeared on his Perfection level Extreme Soldier Slaughtering Body.

With just one strike, he was defeated?

Before the Blood God could sneer.

Woo—

The blood clouds behind him suddenly surged. Even though the Blood God’s body had been annihilated, he could still have a premonition and sense a strong crisis.

Moreover, the ‘Li Mo’ in front of him had already transformed into a single strand of hair.

He suddenly turned his head.

Only to see the faceless glazed gauze fluttering down, and a figure with even more soaring Battle Intent burst out from within. The shadow of the cudgel expanded as it was swung, piercing through heaven and earth, stirring up endless wind and clouds... Beyond the Nine Heavens, what appeared to be the starry sky was actually the myriad phenomena within the jiangshan sheji map, projected as starlight.

The brightest was the great sun, which was the anchor point of the jiangshan sheji map placed in the Tianhuang Domain.

If it were pulled out, this world would be able to break free from the control of the Tianyun Dao Artifact.

The roots of a bronze tree, nurtured in the Taiyin, were extending towards the great sun, intending to pull the great sun into the Taiyin, with the ❖ Nоvеl𝚒ght ❖ (Exclusive on Nоvеl𝚒ght) moon devouring the sun.

Only a Tianyun Dao Artifact could deal with a Tianyun Dao Artifact.

“Hmm?”

Ying Bing, holding the bronze tree seed in her palm, raised her eyes, as if sensing something.

A face suddenly appeared within the great sun. If it weren't high in the clear sky, its full appearance would be impossible to discern.

With cloud-like hair, Phoenix hairpins, bright teeth and eyes, an exquisite nose, lips a vivid red, and skin a reddish-black color, she resembled a noble yet eerie divine demon.

Her eyes, without pupils, seemed to pierce through countless distances, seeing the scene in the Celestial City.

“To send a young lad to his death at the Blood God’s place, your heart is still so cruel.”

Ying Bing quietly said, “He won’t die.”

“Even if he doesn’t die, he will...”

“We can get married.”

“?”

The woman’s face on the great sun stiffened. If not for a familiar sensation from the depths of her Soul, she would have almost thought she had mistaken him for someone else.

“Wait...”

A look of confusion appeared on Empress Chu Ge’s face.

After a while, her expression changed:

“There were nine, not ten. Where did he come from?!”

Her voice was shrill and incredulous.

It was like a programmer who had pulled several all-nighters, running the code one last time before bed, only to find that the program, which had just been running successfully, now had a bug.

After a long while, she regained her composure, muttering as if possessed:

“It’s alright, you and he will stay here together.”

“Everything will return to the correct Dao...”

Beyond the clear sky, an impenetrable darkness fell, and one by one, stars lit up.

It wasn't that they were getting brighter.

Rather, they were getting closer... The Great Sage’s armor and the Ruyi Golden Cudgel still shone brightly, but Li Mo was not feeling so well. The closer the Ruyi Golden Cudgel got to the opponent, the faster the collapse of his Small World within his body became.

He still appeared to have a surging Aura, sustained by his Divine Intention.

Clang—

The cudgel struck the Blood God’s head directly, and all the surging wind and clouds poured out.

The Blood God’s head was blown apart, but he had no vital points.

His physique could no longer be judged by common sense; his thoughts were hidden in every drop of blood, spread throughout his body. So, having his head blown apart was not fatal to him.

He could even raise his palm, a fist like an enraged Dragon, with an emerging Profound Truth of destruction spreading like a spiderweb. It was an unknown Supreme martial art or boxing technique.

Boom—

The two attacks collided in the Void Realm, a dazzling fiery color and violent Qi impacting in all directions.

“Hmm?”

The Blood God let out a surprised sound, then suddenly sneered:

“You are quite a martial arts fanatic to still be observing my Divine Form at a time like this. My body is a Myriad-Form Demonic Body, indestructible through a thousand tribulations. Every move and gesture possesses the posture of Supreme martial art. Throughout the world, no one can surpass it.”

“Since you have heard the Dao in the morning, then may you die a worthy death!”

The Blood God no longer gave Li Mo a chance to breathe.

He stretched out his palm and seized him in a grip.
