Chapter 1957: Human Purgatory
raid that her family in Huaibei would be in danger, especially her brother Zhao Xuan...But she didn't tell anyone about her worries, she didn't want to add to their troubles and sorrows.She only speak...The entire Qianying Lake, from the inside out, was tainted by black qi until it was completely blackened!
Now, the Shadow Lake looked nothing like a lake. Looking down from above, it felt like an icy abyss stretching for thousands of meters, sending shivers down one's spine.
The clear sky seemed to be reflected by this ink-black lake, darkening as if painted with black ink.
And this black intent was still spreading rapidly in all directions.
A stifling air rose from the lake bottom, enveloping the entire Thousand Shadows Lake.
The temperature has dropped to freezing point.
People in all the districts around the Thousand Shadow Lake felt the sudden chill.
Followed by...was a sudden darkening of the sky.
A multitude of people looked up at the sky, their eyes filled with awe.
Although they were miles away from the heart of Chiyo Lake, their hearts pounded wildly in their chests, and goosebumps erupted on their skin.
A sense of impending doom hung heavy in the air.
Something big is definitely going to happen!
Now everyone hurried home.
And many cultivators followed the direction of that cold release... towards the Thousand Shadows Lake.
As long-term residents of the Thousand Shadows Lake area, they now looked at each other in stunned silence!
And such a chilling aura that could affect such a wide range... what kind of being would release it
Magic!
It's probably a demon!
"A thousand, a thousand shadows on Lake Shadow, has another demon awakened!"
"No way... It's been so many years without any incidents, how could this happen now..."
This aura, it must have been released by an unparalleled demon! Otherwise, it wouldn't be this powerful!
Once involved with demons, most cultivators would immediately feel a chill run down their spines and their faces would pale.
Although there have been many demons in the BeiLiang region, most have been dealt with properly and have not caused too much impact.
But if it's just a yokai from Lake Chikage that has awakened... the last time that happened was with the Great Shadow Demon over a thousand years ago.
That peerless celestial demon who caused tens of thousands of casualties in the Thousand Shadows Great Lake region, staining the waters red with blood!
A saint does not need to take action, a demigod is no match.
The Great Shadow Demon goes wherever it pleases, killing everything in its path. Even cultivators at the Transcendent Realm can't escape its clutches!
If it hadn't been for the intervention of the Overlord, Heaven-Conquering Saint, the entire Thousand Shadow Lake, and perhaps even the entire Northern Cold Territory... I fear that the Great Shade Demon would have wiped out six or seven out of ten people!
...and it was after the Heaven-Crushing Saint Sovereign took action that the Great Shadow Celestial Demon was exterminated... For over a thousand years, the Thousand Shadows Lake has remained peaceful, with no more disturbances.
Until today.
The sky is getting darker and darker.
As soon as the thought crossed their minds that another peerless demon might be awakening in Qianying Lake, numerous cultivators felt a chill run down their spines.
Many cultivators have even begun to flee.
As for ordinary people, they wanted to escape but couldn't run fast enough. They could only huddle at home with extreme fear, watching the sky grow darker and darker.
Time slowly passes.
"Run! A demon has appeared at Chiyome Lake again!"
"Don't want to die Run now! Or it might be too late!"
"How can we run This is our home! Can't those cultivators help us"
All major areas of Lake Chiyo have experienced some degree of disruption.
Mortals panicked, cultivators fled.
Even few people dared to approach the Thousand Shadows Lake for a glance.
Because, for demons... their fear stems from souls!
……
At this very moment, the Imperial family's realm.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Rumbles of explosions echoed from various locations within the Imperial family's realm.
Four dark figures darted through the air, leaving behind a trail of… only gore and body parts.
The scene was extremely brutal.
"Ahhhh... Help me!"
"Don't kill me... I don't want to die, I don't want to die..."
"Why is this happening Where are the masters What about the other elders! Come quickly and save us!"
The imperial family, with over 20,000 people, was trapped inside a meat grinder, their demise merely a matter of time.
The four old masters who had been forcefully fused with the demon embryo replicas were completely demonic, even more brutal than Di Chen.
The Fourth Master, who once held the deepest familial loyalty to the imperial family, was now savagely slaughtering those who had been his most trusted kin.
And these clansmen didn't even know... these four demons were their four masters!
All kinds of bodies were crushed and blood splattered everywhere.
The entire imperial family's airspace was shrouded in a crimson blood mist.
This scene, to describe it as human purgatory would be an understatement.
Having been ordered by Fang Yu to wait at the edge of the imperial family's realm, Huixu witnessed this scene with his own eyes.
His face paled slightly, his eyes flickering.
Even the most composed person would be unable to remain indifferent to the scene before them.
It's truly devastating.
These people from the imperial family never could have imagined that their final outcome... would be so tragic.
The entire Imperial family was used and destroyed by Emperor Xiong Yuan alone.
While Wai Xu was watching the battle ahead, he also sensed something unusual behind him.
He turned and looked toward the location of Chiyome Lake.
At this time, the sky above the imperial family’s domain also began to darken.
"Fang brother..." Huixu frowned, her expression grave.
Whoosh!
But at this moment, a chilling presence is approaching from behind!
Huixu turned around and saw a dark shadow charging towards him.
Huixi's heart jolted, and she immediately used her body technique to retreat backward!
Originally, Emperor Zhaoyang who was already at the Transcendent Realm had surpassed Emperor Chen in terms of aura after fusing with a replica of the Devil Embryo.
The current state of emptiness is utterly incapable of confronting such an existence.
To his surprise, he was discovered even though he had concealed his aura and figure completely and was at a great distance.
"Whoosh!"
Huai Xu swiftly flew towards the direction of Qian Ying Great Lake.
"Hee hee."
The emperor, Di Zhaoyang, who was chasing from behind, let out a chilling laugh, his speed increasing even further.
Huixu gritted his teeth and unleashed a massive amount of true qi, constantly rotating his body techniques as he charged forward at the fastest speed possible.
"Ah!"
Emperor Zhaoyang suddenly raised a palm.
"Boom!"
A surge of furious magical energy slammed into Huixu.
Huixu's eyes narrowed, and her palms came together in a clap.
"Whoosh!"
Before the blast could hit him, he successfully vanished from his original position, dodging it.
"I'm going to kill you! I'm going to tear you apart!"
This dodge only made the pursuing Emperor Zhāo Yang behind him even more frenzied, charging towards Huixu at an even faster speed.
……
The lake water, as black as ink, had lost all visibility.
And the air beneath the lake had risen to a suffocating level.
Caotuan trembled all over, fear gripping her to the extreme. She instinctively hugged Fang Yu's left arm tightly.
Fang Yu glanced at her and said, "I'll have to fight that demon down there later. How about I put you in my storage space for now"
Cao Tian timidly raised her head and looked at Fang Yu.
Although she didn't know Fang Yu, for some reason, seeing his face gave her a strange sense of security.
So, she nodded repeatedly.
"Alright, then let's go in." Fang Yu raised his hand.Ji Wangu was still pondering, while Fang Yu had already approached Hei'e!Before Hei'e, Fang Yu was as insignificant as an ant."Buzz!"The huge talisman on Hei Er's chest flashed red, releasing immense...
