Chapter 1804: Seizing the Seed

The vast, surging malignance rank was like a foul-smelling calamity flood, pouring forth in mighty torrents, polluting everything in its path and emanating an aura of disaster.

The Heavenly Kings of Outer Shenzhou all couldn't help but change color.

No one had expected this "Dark Heavenly King" to be so monstrous—she could actually control the great demon kings of the dark world, ignoring their own will, and directly detonate their ranks.

The calamity flood surged forth, meeting the destructive torrent unleashed by Li Luo's self-detonation of the Ten Thousand Aspects Wheel.

The two collided, causing the entire Ten Great Outer Shenzhou to tremble.

Such a clash of energy even tore enormous rifts in that black-and-white domain.

The terrifying aftershocks persisted for a long time before gradually dissipating.

Li Luo's figure had once again vanished along with the Ten Thousand Aspects Wheel.

However, under Li Luo's frenzied counterattack this time, which gathered the power of multiple Heavenly King ranks, the "Light Golden Lotus" driven by Jiang Jiang Qinge was vigorously dispelling the annihilation power unleashed by that Silent Extinction Black Wheel; as the pure, sacred light force swept across, it stained that Silent Extinction Black Wheel with streaks of erosion marks.

This sight, instead, gave the Heavenly Kings' morale a slight boost.

"Ants united in purpose are the most laughable of all."

The Dark Sect Master, however, merely shook her head at this; a faint smile always lingered on her cheeks, but deep within those eyes lurked a peculiar indifference.

Perhaps in her eyes, the living beings of this world at this moment were not truly alive—they would eventually be eliminated.

Moreover, she was beginning to feel a touch of impatience.

She had already endured endless ages, so she had no desire to continue entangling herself with these ants.

With the Sect Master and the Source of All Evil vanished from the world, nothing could obstruct her steps any longer.

Including this "Pseudo Ten-Grade Light Aspect."

The Dark Sect Master extended her palm, brutally tearing open the boundary wall connecting the Outer Shenzhou world and the dark world; countless black stone bridges could be seen extending out from the dark world, finally spanning across the malignance black sea that had spread across the heavens.

The next instant, the many Heavenly Kings watched in horror as a vast, surging tide of alien creatures, like walking corpses, moved along the stone bridges and finally plunged en masse into the malignance black sea.

And as countless alien creatures merged into the malignance black sea, the pitch-black waters grew darker, colder, and more eerie.

In the end, the Dark Sect Master parted her crimson lips and gently inhaled.

That surging, endless malignance black sea was drawn into her mouth in a single breath.

This sight made countless Heavenly Kings' scalps go numb—that was the malignance black sea, the very source from which the alien creatures of the dark world were born, yet now it had been swallowed whole by the Dark Sect Master.

And after swallowing the malignance black sea, the black sun mark between the Dark Sect Master's brows grew incomparably dark, while the blood moon within the black sun also bloomed with a scarlet radiance.

At this moment, all living beings sensed that the aura of great power emanating from the Dark Sect Master climbed once again.

Whoosh!

From the black sun and blood moon mark between the Dark Sect Master's brows, a faint clanking of iron chains suddenly sounded; the very next instant, two chains—one black, one red—shot out violently from the black sun and blood moon.

When those two chains appeared, the energies of heaven and earth immediately fled in all directions, as if they had encountered the most terrifying thing imaginable.

Even Jiang Heavenly King, a Divine Fruit Heavenly King, felt an uncontrollable terror welling up within him beneath those two chains, as if when the chains came coiling, even the Divine Fruit he had forged would be sealed and devoured.

Those were not two chains, but two world-devouring great serpents capable of annihilating realms.

The Dark Sect Master's expression remained calm; with a flick of her finger, the black-red chains pierced through layer upon layer of void, directly stabbing through Jiang Jiang Qinge's "Light Golden Lotus."

Jiang Jiang Qinge's face changed drastically; the Light Divine Heart in her chest burned to its utmost at this moment, driving the Ten-Grade Light force to empower the "Light Golden Lotus."

But that "Black-Red Chain" seemed to contain an indescribably terrifying power, and actually began to suppress and devour her light force.

Thus the "Light Golden Lotus" began to dim at a startling speed, its petals withering rapidly layer by layer.

In the end, the Light Golden Lotus shattered completely under the horrified gazes of countless living beings.

Jiang Jiang Qinge's figure transformed into a golden rainbow of light and retreated at extreme speed.

Boom!

Yet the next instant, the void around her collapsed directly; the terrifying chains, like world-annihilating great serpents, tore through the air, and at the moment of contact, melted away the light force outside Jiang Jiang Qinge's body, while the chains came coiling, encircling and binding her like serpents.

The dark, ferocious spikes on the chains pierced Jiang Jiang Qinge's flesh, greedily devouring the light force within.

The light that illuminated the world began to dim rapidly at this moment.

And when Jiang Jiang Qinge was bound, the Dark Sect Master's gaze turned toward a spot on the Outer Shenzhou earth, where Li Luo's resurrected figure was revealed.

"This Ten Thousand Aspects Seed, I should be able to take it back now, shouldn't I?" she said softly, then stepped forward, space shattering, descending directly toward where Li Luo was.

"Intercept her! She wants to seize the Ten Thousand Aspects Seed!"

Jiang Heavenly King let out a sharp howl, then struck first; his arm writhed and transformed into a tree spear vast enough to blot out the sky, the spear gleaming gold, capable of piercing through any substance.

Yet facing Jiang Heavenly King's all-out attack, the Dark Sect Master, as she stepped through space, casually waved her hand, her slender palm slapping against the golden tree spear.

Boom!

A light slap, yet in an instant it shattered the golden tree spear into billions of fragments.

Jiang Heavenly King's arm broke off on the spot, blood raining down.

But even so, he still fought on bathed in blood, his eyes crimson, exerting his full power to intercept.

Because he knew that once the Dark Sect Master obtained the Ten Thousand Aspects Seed, the Ten Great Outer Shenzhou would face an abyss of despair.

The remaining Heavenly Kings also erupted in deafening long howls at this moment, the howls like thunder, brimming with tragic grandeur and fury.

One after another, ranks manifested, evolving into strange phenomena, continuously pressing down upon the Dark Sect Master.

Yet facing these Heavenly Kings' frenzied assaults, the Dark Sect Master strolled leisurely; the annihilation force flowed around her, erasing every attack that came crashing in.

At the same time, every casual strike she made would grievously wound a Heavenly King powerhouse; in an instant, the blood of Heavenly Kings drifted throughout the entire world.

And she continued closing in on Li Luo at extreme speed.

Li Luo stared at the Dark Sect Master, who, despite the Heavenly Kings of Outer Shenzhou fighting desperately to intercept her, still charged straight toward him, and his eyes too grew incomparably crimson and frenzied.

The situation had already reached such a desperate state—what good would running do?

Li Luo let out a sharp howl; the Aspect Palaces within his body trembled wildly, the four ranks glowing with unprecedented brightness at this moment, as the energies of heaven and earth transformed into a torrent, surging in endlessly.

Between his brows, a light scar slowly emerged.

Within the light scar, the four ranks intertwined and collided, finally fusing together.

That was... a Divine Fruit!

At this moment of certain death, Li Luo had cast aside everything, forcefully activating four Aspects of Authority, accelerating their gestation, and ultimately, achieving the form of a Divine Fruit!

However, Li Luo also understood that facing Sect Master An's terrifying strength, even having forged a Divine Fruit, he still could not possibly be her match.

So the next moment, he unhesitatingly activated this newly formed Divine Fruit, causing it to burn wildly.

Self-destructing the Divine Fruit!

Li Luo's crimson eyes stared at the void ahead, where the air rippled and Sect Master An's figure had already stepped out.

Boom!

The Divine Fruit burned and exploded, the terrifying Divine Fruit Authority surging forth overwhelmingly, rushing straight toward Sect Master An.

"Oh? Forged a Divine Fruit in this desperate life-and-death situation? You truly are a person of great willpower. No wonder you could restore this Ten Thousand Aspects Seed to its prime."

Sect Master An exclaimed in surprise with a sigh of admiration, then she extended her slender, pale palm and directly pierced through the destructive force formed by the self-detonation of the Divine Fruit Authority.

Then, before Li Luo's body could explode and disintegrate, she thrust it into the flesh and blood of his chest.

Li Luo's expression suddenly froze. He could feel Sect Master An's palm clawing within his flesh and blood, and at the same time, it seemed something was being stripped away from the deepest part of his body.

His Aspect Palaces were beginning to collapse one by one.

Those Aspects he had painstakingly cultivated with endless effort were wailing and continuously dimming.

Finally, when Sect Master An's blood-stained palm was pulled out from his chest, Li Luo's aura rapidly weakened at this moment.

His gaze lingered on Sect Master An's hand, where a seed had truly appeared.

An ordinary seed, with nothing strange about it.

But Li Luo sensed an extremely familiar aura upon it.

That was... the Ten Thousand Aspects Seed.

Sect Master An held the "Ten Thousand Aspects Seed," a satisfied smile appearing on her cheeks, then she said to Li Luo earnestly: "Thank you, your mission is already complete, so..."

"You can go die now."

She raised her palm and casually slapped down.

The void collapsed, and the body below Li Luo's head was smashed into fine powder, not even leaving a single trace of flesh or blood.

Only a single head fell from the sky.

Sect Master An stared at the falling head, but was momentarily stunned. She glanced at her own palm with slight surprise. That palm strike earlier was meant to erase all traces of Li Luo's flesh and blood, but at the very last moment, it had deviated slightly, resulting in the head being left behind.

This was clearly not the kind of minor error she would make.

Then... was it some instinctive reaction from this body?
