C1105 Chaos!

"I knew it."

Lim Zhuyun spoke with an air of detachment, her eyes untroubled by the impending danger.

She remained utterly still, watching Yu Yuan approach with his Demon Blade, seemingly resigned to her fate.

Clang!

A diamond-shaped silver shield intercepted the Demon Blade's strike.

The shield, with its ancient and weathered surface, adorned with intricate patterns showing signs of age, suddenly glowed, momentarily dazzling Yu Yuan.

Once his eyes adjusted to the shield's glare, he saw Elena's father standing resolutely behind it.

Fernand, with mixed emotions, lowered the shield slightly to reveal his determined, sharply contoured face and said with a hint of reluctance, "Sorry, but my king's command is to protect her."

The diamond-shaped shield held back the Demon Blade's assault, stopping the serpentine blade lights in their tracks.

Simultaneously, a chilling energy emanated from within the shield, effectively cutting off Yu Yuan's spiritual and blood-based probing.

The Blood Prison's power required contact with the flesh of living beings.

Unable to strike Fernand, the blood lights failed to penetrate the silver shield, rendering the Blood Prison's dreadful might inert.

Yu Yuan, gripping the Demon Blade, could sense the multitude of bloodthirsty souls within it, howling with a voracious lust for blood, yet unable to breach the shield.

Fernand, a Ninth Level Asura and the king of roving bandits, naturally possessed a relic.

The Demon Blade, Blood Prison, was undeniably sinister, but as a Heaven Level item, it was on par with the sacred relics of other races.

A relic wielded by a Ninth Level bloodline like Fernand's could undoubtedly withstand the Demon Blade.

With the Demon Blade proving ineffective, Yu Yuan quickly devised a new strategy.

Whoosh!

The Evil Cauldron hurtled toward Lim Zhuyun, causing Fernand, the Asura General, to react with a sudden change in expression. Narrowing his eyes, he called out, "Bloodline, Asura Scythe!"

Scythes, forged from the essence of pure blood energy, emerged from behind Fernand. They moved to intercept the Evil Cauldron before it could reach its target, their eerie blades slicing through the air.

Crack!

An unfortunate member of the Silver Scale Clan was caught in the crossfire, his body cleaved by a scythe, his blood and shattered bones erupting, lending the scythes an even more sinister appearance.

Frost Energy surged from the Dark Domain, bolstering the might of the scythes.

Crack!

The scythes bore down on the approaching cauldron, as black demonic energy billowed out like spilling ink. Yu Yiyi, positioned at the mouth of the cauldron, furrowed her brow, ready to summon the Evil Cauldron for battle, yet an unsettling premonition stopped her.

Without further entanglement, the cauldron sped away from the scythes.

Suddenly, a dense dark energy materialized like an enormous black shroud.

Fernand, with a diamond-shaped silver shield in one hand and Lim Zhuyun in the other, soared upwards and landed on the "black shroud" formed by the concentrated Frost Energy of the Dark Domain.

The shroud whisked them away, vanishing swiftly into the depths of darkness near the Death Nest, leaving no trace.

The Frost Well that had burst from the nest, now magnified tenfold, still ensnared the Ice Concubine.

The Ice Concubine's deep blue eyes sparkled with wisdom as she gazed at the cauldron from a distance, her look towards Yu Yiyi suggesting unspoken words.

Having ascended to the pinnacle of the Demon God, she now wielded combat prowess on par with an Unrestrained Stage cultivator, and her lost memories were stirring to life.

This meant that the Ice Concubine had reclaimed her identity and was privy to many secrets.

"She, along with the Frost Energy and the true well, are the keys for Lim Zhuyun's next breakthrough," Yu Yiyi, maneuvering the cauldron, paused behind Yu Yuan, who wielded the Demon Blade. She spoke solemnly, "Her sister, once in the Nether Abyss, later ventured to the Ember Waters, taking Lim Zhuyun as her host."

"With the aid of the Chaos Roc, Lim Zhuyun overpowered and refined the Devaputra."

"Now, she seeks to go further, to refine the Frost Energy and the crystalline physique of the Ice Concubine, using her mastery of the possession technique to complete the takeover."

"She views the Ice Concubine's demonic form as the ideal vessel for a Yang God body, aiming to use the Ice Concubine for her own ascension."

As her words faded, the Frost Well that had ensnared the Ice Concubine plummeted, once again vanishing into the abyssal darkness.

Taking its place was Fisher, the esteemed Great Elder of the Void Spirit Succubus Clan. She stood upon a grey-white Heaven Opening Divine Stone, descending from another realm like an ancient deity.

Beneath Fisher's feet, the Heaven Opening Divine Stone radiated boundless light, exuding a mystical force that could stabilize space and alter the very laws of existence.

"Teacher..."

Benin, the overlooked Void Spirit Succubus girl, stood on the brink of being swallowed by the encroaching darkness.

She looked up at the Great Elder, revered within her clan, who had cunningly acquired the Divine Stone and now stood upon it. Together with the Asura King and the Great Demon God Grec, she had orchestrated the invasion of the Plover Realm. Benin watched in despair as her clan's warriors, elders, and people fell in droves.

As the Cold Abyss of the Dark Domain spread wildly, the warriors of other clans were forced to fight in retreat.

The Asura warriors, able to withdraw into the shadows at will, grew increasingly fierce. Each return to the darkness allowed them to swiftly regain their strength and heal their wounds. Emerging once more, they were rejuvenated with full vigor.

Moreover, some unfortunate warriors from other clans were dragged into the dark depths, forced to battle amidst the pervasive Frost Energy.

These alien fighters often met grim fates, never managing to break free.

"Enter the darkness, and I will take you back to our clan. You have earned great merit this time. In the future, once your bloodline ascends to the Ninth Level, a place among the elders awaits you," Fisher said with a kind demeanor, addressing her student in the shadows. "You played a significant role in the return of the Heaven Opening Divine Stone. I have taken note of your contributions."

Upon hearing this, Benin bowed her head in embarrassment, and soon after, the darkness consumed her.

"Avoid combat with your Asura Clan adversaries within the Dark Domain. Withdraw outward!"

High above, at a hundred meters, the Green Willow Demon manifested its colossal form. Its serpentine body stretched across the sky like a mountain range, with streams that shimmered like silver galaxies, weaving the essence of water to entrap a host of mutated monsters.

No matter how fiercely the mutated monsters roared and struggled within the celestial river, escape was futile.

"Hmph!" A towering Platinum Asura emerged from the shadows, hurling a silver spear into the void.

The spear streaked through the air like a bolt of cold lightning, splitting into hundreds of silver arcs that pierced the river, refined by the Green Willow Demon. It left numerous gaping holes in the serpent-like body that sprawled like a mountain range.

With its emerald vertical pupils, the Green Willow Demon hissed violently, thrashing its body as its formidable demonic energy shattered the silver bolts.

Its massive jaws clamped down on the silver spear, fixing a glare on the Asura below. With a forceful bite, the spear, a relic in its own right, snapped into fragments.

Lvliu transformed back into a gaunt man and, in the blink of an eye, materialized before the Platinum Asura. "Let's have ourselves a proper confrontation."

He crushed the remnants of the spear into shards within his grasp.

"Yu Yuan, would you care to join me at the Destruction Fortress?" The Luan Bird Queen's voice whispered softly in Yu Yuan's mind.

Looking up, Yu Yuan beheld the immense Destruction Fortress, a behemoth of war unleashing torrents of light and flames. The onslaught forced mutated monsters and Asura warriors to howl in agony.

The Dark Elfkind, female demons, members of the Silver Scale Clan, and the Black Scale Clan were not spared, caught in the crossfire of light and flame.

Chen Qinghuang stood out distinctly at the periphery of the Destruction Fortress. The brutal carnage of the Plover Realm seemed to leave her unfazed. She appeared unconcerned for her safety, fearless in the face of any formidable adversary seeking her demise.

The Luan Bird, once the Destruction Den, made its way back to the Boundless Land. Her unique bond with the Destruction Den meant she could leave the Plover Realm in an instant and teleport directly to the fortress. It was this assurance that allowed her to face any peril without fear.

"No need," Yu Yuan declined, shaking his head. He then hoisted the Demon Blade Blood Prison and advanced towards another cluster of mutated monsters.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Suddenly, the sky filled with numerous Yin Corpses, their bodies enshrouded in thick miasma, descending upon them with formidable presence.

It was a mess!

Yu Yiyi, a member of the clan, was particularly affected. She had been preparing to use the relic to harness Frost Energy from the Dark Domain's Death Nest. Her plans were now in jeopardy.
