Chapter 228: Requiem (Grand Finale)
The Evil God Mofideer, with one dragon, searched aimlessly and bitterly in the Abyss for another day and night, still without the slightest clue.
Since he could not feel the fluctuations of the Netherfire Core, it meant it was not in the Abyss.
The Evil God Mofideer finally calmed down.
He eventually recalled what that Abyssal Demon Soldier had said: a human had once appeared in the Netherfire Canyon.
Nowadays, there is only one human capable of venturing deep into the Abyss.
That is a piece he had secretly planted in the human city many years ago.
Thinking of this, a triumphant smile appeared on the face of the Evil God Mofideer.
……
At night, Zhou Chu arrived at the back mountain of Shenxia University once again.
Today, the God of Nature woke from its slumber again, and Zhou Chu tricked it into fully charging the key to the God-Fallen Land.
Thus, in this short half-hour, Zhou Chu used the fastest speed to collect the divine consciousness and remains of the final three gods in the God-Fallen Land.
With this, the five great gods—the God of Nature, the God of Storms, the Goddess of Stars and Moon, the God of Life, and the God of Fate—were all gathered by Zhou Chu into the Emperor Tomb.
However, the Goddess of Stars and Moon had only left behind two Divine Artifacts, which for Zhou Chu also counted as inheriting the divine power of the Goddess of Stars and Moon.
Zhou Chu watched helplessly as the God-Fallen Land collapsed and crumbled, eventually being replaced by the World Tree.
Gazing at the World Tree spreading its branches and leaves above his head, Zhou Chu slowly took a deep breath.
At this moment, a black owl flew rapidly from the distance and then landed lightly on Zhou Chu's shoulder.
"Master, I just went to the Military Department, and as you expected, Wu Guangzhou has indeed been eroded by evil power."
"I can clearly feel that what is staining him is the curse power of the Evil God."
Ganas the Lord of Treacherous Poison had gone to the Military Department to gather information according to Zhou Chu's instructions.
"What about Long Aofei?" Zhou Chu nodded and continued to ask.
Ganas continued to report: "He hatched that Black Dragon Egg harboring the Evil God's power; at this moment, his body has been possessed by the Evil God, and he has even sacrificed his soul to the other party."
"To be precise, the Evil God has already revived. It is just that he currently lacks Netherfire Power and cannot reach his peak strength, so everything is still under your control, Master."
Zhou Chu smiled slightly and said: "Good, then we shall proceed with our plan. We must ruin the scheme the Evil God thinks is foolproof."
……
Shenxia Empire, Sunset Canyon in the west.
Today is the day of the annual Military Competition.
At the entrance to the wild Copy, the elites from various military districts participating in this competition stood in neat rows.
And on the high platform in front, Wu Guangzhou, Long Aotian, Zhou Shi Funa, and Ye Yu and Xu Na of the Hurricane Squad all stood on the stage, looking down with disdain at the crowd of Shenxia elites below.
At this moment, the five people on the stage were entirely impersonated by the Evil God himself.
The Evil God Mofideer, controlling the body of Long Aofei, carefully inspected the bodies of these elites and could not help but frown slightly.
From the bodies of these elite Soul Professionals, he seemed unable to feel a single trace of Soul Power fluctuation.
Furthermore, these Soul Professionals were more like they were being controlled by some kind of power, just like puppets without souls, standing there like soldiers waiting for orders.
Mofideer always felt something was wrong, and at the same time, the whole scene gave him a strange feeling.
Could it be that his Divine Power had not fully recovered, making his perception less sensitive?
But even so, it should be impossible not to feel the Soul Power fluctuations on ordinary people.
Just as the Evil God was lost in deep thought, the scene indeed underwent a earth-shattering change.
The elites of the Shenxia army who had been standing there suddenly swayed, and then turned into a vast army composed of Calamity monsters.
There were Calamity Knights riding Calamity Ghost Horses, Chaos Death Soldiers wearing heavy armor and carrying giant swords, and even some behemoths whose names he could not name.
These behemoths looked like they were pieced together from all sorts of junk, and they even carried a giant iron hammer on their steel shoulders.
In the blink of an eye, more and more Calamity armies appeared out of thin air throughout the Sunset Canyon, and in a flash, they were vast and mighty, covering the mountains and plains.
Mofideer's eyes burned with heat, thinking that these Calamity armies were summoned by his Divine Power to help him complete his plan here.
But until he saw a white object floating in the air in the distance, from which these Calamity Legions were continuously emerging, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
The army elites turning into a Calamity army meant he had fallen for some kind of illusion or trick; these people had never come to the Sunset Canyon at all.
He had originally intended to lure all the elites of the Shenxia Kingdom here, but he never expected to be the one kept in the dark.
The Evil God Mofideer realized that he was the one who had been tricked, and he was instantly furious; he wanted to see who exactly was the person who had deceived him.
Just then, high in the sky in the distance, a black Calamity Ghost Dragon flew over slowly, and on the back of the Calamity Ghost Dragon stood a young figure, with that white coffin floating beside him.
The young figure was dressed in a black robe, the hem of which was flapping loudly in the strong wind within the canyon; his face was cold, and his eyes revealed a faint smile.
It was Zhou Chu.
He looked down at the Evil God Mofideer from above, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, carrying a hint of mockery.
"Mofideer, you thought yourself clever, plotting to scheme against the entire Shenxia Empire, but you never expected that you were the one being schemed against." Zhou Chu's voice echoed in the canyon.
The surprise in Mofideer's eyes vanished instantly; he looked at Zhou Chu in the sky with a stunned expression, and when he saw the King-level and Heroic Difficulty servants behind him like personal bodyguards, he finally realized what had happened.
His original subordinates had all become Zhou Chu's subordinates.
"Zhou Chu, you were a nail I planted in the human world; it was your destiny to accept possession and soul sacrifice."
"But I, the Evil God, let you have your way in order to make you a more useful piece, never expecting you to return kindness with enmity and ruin my great cause!" Evil power surged wildly around Mofideer, as if it were about to ignite the surrounding air.
Zhou Chu sneered, "Return kindness with enmity? You evil creature, attempting to destroy the world and bringing disaster to countless people—what kindness is there to speak of? From the moment you tried to control my destiny, today's outcome was already sealed."
"Today, I will surely enslave you forever!" As he spoke, Zhou Chu drove the Dead Man's Coffin beside him, shooting it rapidly toward the Evil God Mofideer.
Mofideer had no idea of the power of the Dead Man's Coffin's forced contract, and he attempted to use his Evil God power to resist this white coffin.
However, he soon discovered that his evil power could not only not resist the powerful suction of this thing, but it was also being continuously drained from his body.
Mofideer was terrified; he had never seen such a strange Divine Artifact that could ignore his divine power resistance and forcibly extract his power.
"What is this hellish thing!" Mofideer roared, and in his desperation, he waved his hand, snatching back the power that originally belonged to him from Zhou Shi Funa and Wu Guangzhou respectively.
Immediately following, three enormous demon heads manifested once again behind him; he spread his hands wide and gripped the necks of the Zhou couple tightly in his grasp.
"Zhou Chu, do you not even care about the lives of your parents?" Mofideer threatened with a ferocious expression, as if he had grasped a final straw.
At the same time, he signaled to the Shadow Flame Demon General and Soul Devouring Madam beside him; these two demons no longer feigned disguise, immediately shifting from the appearances of Ye Yu and Xu Na back to their original forms, and pounced toward Zhou Chu with bared fangs and brandished claws.
Zhou Chu's gaze turned sharp; he waved his hand, and several transparent soul-controlling threads swept upward, directly turning these two great demons into puppets in his hands.
Seeing this scene, Mofideer's pupils could not help but shrink violently, and he said with a trembling tone: "You, you, you actually know Puppetry?"
Zhou Chu smiled wickedly: "No, it is the God-level Puppet Soul Control Technique!"
"God, God-level?" Mofideer was stunned upon hearing this.
To directly control his two great protectors would require even Malgani to expend immense effort, and there would still be a high probability of failure; he had not expected Zhou Chu to control them with such ease.
"Since you have delivered yourselves into my trap, then I must take you in."
Having said that, Zhou Chu pulled with his hand, and the Shadow Flame Demon General and Soul Devouring Madam were sucked into the Dead Man's Coffin.
Zhou Chu continuously flicked the soul-controlling threads in his hands, slowly approaching the evil god Mofideer with great interest.
Mofideer's eyes were filled with terror; he had intended to snap the necks of the Zhou couple, but he discovered that his body was no longer under his control, as if bound tightly by an invisible and powerful force.
"No! Impossible! I am the master of this world; how could a mere human like you subdue me!" Mofideer roared frantically, attempting to break free from this binding force, but everything was in vain.
Under the dual effect of the Dead Man's Coffin's powerful suction and the God-level Puppet Soul Control Technique, his body moved involuntarily toward the Dead Man's Coffin.
"Come now, be good, do not resist, and become my slave, for I am the true Lord of Calamity!"
Zhou Chu's voice echoed in his ears, sounding like a requiem.
"No, you are a devil, you are a terrifying devil! Do not come over here!"
The desperate, roaring voice of the evil god Mofideer echoed in Sunset Canyon for a long time, lingering incessantly.
