Chapter 234: About Me Equipping the Seal Demon Box and Going Evil

At that moment, Black Emperor suddenly remembered something.

He leapt to his feet and frantically rummaged through drawers and chests.

“Right, the pouch!”

“The pouch left by the Five Shadow Guardians.”

“With it, I still have a chance to win!”

He searched wildly until he finally found the mysterious pouch.

Black Emperor tore it open without hesitation.

A jet-black, ink-like aura instantly surged out of the pouch.

The next instant, the Five Shadow Guardians, long sealed away, all revived.

Worse still, they all merged into Black Emperor’s body at once.

A single human body was forcibly crammed with six souls.

The scene was like a luxury apartment suddenly turned into a shared rental, even the toilet occupied.

Black Emperor’s body was instantly engulfed in thick black energy, emitting deep, guttural roars.

The final Magic Spirit Stone fused with Black Emperor’s dark heart, brimming with greed.

When the black mist cleared, a massive aberrant beast stood where he had been.

Ultimate Aberrant Beast… Black Demon Beast!

Its entire body was crimson, as if stitched from countless flesh fragments, clad in black armor, its eyes a glowing yellow, radiating a suffocating aura of evil.

It let out a deafening roar to the heavens: “Emperor Hero!!!”

As if the entire Shadow Realm trembled at that moment.

And just then, a figure slowly walked into the room.

“Looking for me?”

Luo Jie stood at the doorway, his tone as calm as a delivery guy dropping off food.

The Black Demon Beast snapped its head down, eyes burning with hatred and rage:

“It’s Itachi. Itachi destroyed everything I had.”

Luo Jie shrugged. “I don’t like people looking down at me.”

“Emperor Armor, merge!”

In a flash of golden light, Luo Jie transformed into Emperor Hero.

The Black Demon Beast, seeing Luo Jie become Emperor Hero, grew even angrier.

It roared and charged, as if determined to tear Luo Jie apart.

But Luo Jie merely smiled faintly, a hint of mockery in his eyes:

“Come on. Let’s see how long Itachi can keep this up.”

BOOM!

The Black Demon Beast opened its mouth and spat a purple energy beam.

Luo Jie didn’t dodge—he simply blocked it with his Aurora Shield.

Worse still, the beam was reflected back by the shield, striking the Black Demon Beast directly.

The Black Demon Beast could absorb energy.

So it quickly absorbed the beam, growing larger and larger, swelling like it had been injected with steroids.

But instead of charging at Luo Jie again, it turned and flew out toward the outside world.

“Trying to run?”

Luo Jie sneered. “Not a chance.”

He raised his hand: “Emperor Steed!”

A flash of golden light descended—the Emperor Steed pierced through the light-paper and transformed into the Light Emperor War Dragon.

Luo Jie leapt onto the back of the War Dragon.

“Chase it!”

The next instant, the Emperor War Dragon soared into the sky, becoming a golden streak racing after the Black Demon Beast!

They engaged in a fierce aerial chase above the city.

In the sky, the Black Demon Beast fled while constantly turning to fire purple energy orbs, trying to block Luo Jie.

Luo Jie, meanwhile, fired precise shots with his Emperor Cannon, each one making the Black Demon Beast howl in pain.

Even though the Black Demon Beast could absorb energy, it still suffered damage from energy it couldn’t absorb in time.

On the streets below, pedestrians looked up, stunned by the epic battle.

“Holy shit, they’re fighting up there.”

“Is that… a monster?”

“What the hell is that?”

“Are they filming a movie?”

Inside the ERP lab, Mei Zhen stared at her computer screen, frowning deeply.

She picked up her communicator and contacted Dong Shan and Xin Nan:

“Massive energy signature detected—an aberrant beast has appeared above the city.”

Dong Shan’s voice came through: “We’ve seen it.”

“Emperor Hero is fighting an unknown aberrant beast.”

Mei Zhen hurriedly said: “Go help Emperor Hero immediately.”

At that moment, Xin Nan suddenly spoke up:

“Mei Zhen, their power levels are too high.”

“We can’t even get close.”

Mei Zhen fell silent for a moment, then nodded. “Itachi’re right.”

“Focus on evacuation. Protect the humans.”

She gazed out the window at the sky, her heart heavy.

“Perhaps the true protagonist was never us.”

Meanwhile, high above, Luo Jie continued his battle with the Black Demon Beast.

“This guy is definitely tough.”

He dodged the Black Demon Beast’s purple orbs with the Emperor War Dragon, mentally grumbling.

“After all, he’s a final boss—no challenge wouldn’t befit the title of Ultimate Aberrant Beast.”

Luo Jie narrowed his eyes and smirked. “Since Itachi like running, don’t blame me for cutting off your escape.”

Before he finished speaking, he twisted his belt sharply.

The Aurora Sword reappeared in his hand.

The next instant, Luo Jie leapt off the War Dragon, becoming a golden meteor streaking straight toward the Black Demon Beast.

His figure traced a perfect arc through the air.

“Five Shadow Ultimate Kill!”

The next moment, five shadow seals appeared instantly.

Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth!

They surrounded the Black Demon Beast, radiating suffocating energy.

Then Luo Jie split into five—five Emperor Heroes appeared simultaneously.

The Black Demon Beast’s pupils shrank in shock: “How is this possible?”

Before it could react, the five Luo Jies swung their Aurora Swords at once, unleashing multiple slashes.

“BOOM BOOM BOOM!!”

A deafening explosion shook the entire city.

When the dust cleared, only a single Seal Demon Sticker floated alone in midair.

The Black Demon Beast never even had time to scream—it was sealed completely into the two-dimensional world.

Luo Jie landed slowly, sheathed the Aurora Sword, brushed the dust off his hands, and said calmly:

“Done. Another easy day.”

He raised his hand—the Seal Demon Sticker flew automatically into his belt.

At that moment, a box suddenly fell from the sky, landing precisely in front of Luo Jie.

Luo Jie looked down, raising an eyebrow. “Oh? Seal Demon Box?”

This wasn’t an ordinary item—it was a specialized container designed to seal Magic Spirit Stones.

In other words, it was a monster storage box.

Luo Jie picked up the Seal Demon Box, examined it from all angles, then suddenly had a bold thought:

“I have an equipment slot as a cheat— I can use equipment’s power.”

“What if I equip this Seal Demon Box? What would happen?”

“Would I turn into an aberrant beast?”

Thinking of this, Luo Jie smirked.

“Best way to find out—just try it.”

Without hesitation, he immediately equipped the Seal Demon Box.

The next moment, thick black qi surged from Luo Jie’s body.

His body was instantly shrouded in black mist.

The black mist dispersed.

What appeared in its place was neither a psychic beast nor Luo Jie himself.

It was Dark Emperor Hero!

Emperor Hero had turned dark.

The Dark Emperor Hero, once existing only in surrounding toys, had been brought forth by Luo Jie.

Luo Jie stood in place, utterly bewildered.

He muttered: “This is insane—I, the mighty Emperor Hero, have turned dark?”

Luo Jie tested his power and found it still intact, though the aesthetic had changed drastically.

“Now I’m truly fighting a foe born of my own source.”
