Chapter 194

"The Black Dragon's combat index has surged past 30,000 points!"

"Brother Yanwang is only at 20,000 combat points—how could he possibly fight the current Black Dragon? If he could, he wouldn't have..."

"Go to the Iron Dimension and seek a glimmer of hope!"

Someone shook their head, overwhelmed by utter despair.

"Could it be..."

"Are we doomed to fall to darkness?"

A atmosphere of despair.

After the Black Dragon revealed his 30,000 combat index, it spread throughout the Wu Lin.

"The only glimmer of hope is..."

"Find the being who once severely wounded the Black Dragon!"

"That..."

"Mysterious being!"

Someone recalled: the Black Dragon had once been severely wounded!

Back then, the Black Dragon.

At 23,000 combat points, only someone with at least 27,000 combat points—or higher—could have wounded him!

This is...

The last hope!

But...

"Word of the Black Dragon has spread..."

"The one who wounded him back then was only at 27,000 combat points—even if we find him, what good will it do?"

Someone delivered a deeply disappointing piece of news!

"But what can we do..."

"27,000 combat points is better than nothing—if we don't have that, how can we possibly resist?"

But no matter what.

This seems...

To be the last hope!

That mysterious being.

Summoned by countless people, yet even so, that mysterious being seemed to vanish along with Brother Yanwang from the Wu Lin.

The Wu Lin.

Utter despair!

Darkness!

And...

The sixth day.

As one piece of news spread.

The Wu Lin.

Truly...

Fallen into darkness!

"The Black Dragon's goal..."

"Is to become a demon!"

"And now, the only chance for him to become a demon lies in Wang Tulong's son, Wang Yase—who holds the Shi Zhong Sword, within which resides the Shi Zhong Demon, seeking to fuse with Wang Yase!"

"Once Wang Yase is corrupted, he will become a demon—and then the Black Dragon will demand of Wang Yase..."

"To submit to him!"

"Wang Tulong..."

"Has already been captured by the Black Dragon!"

"Now, Wang Yase is half-demon, half-human—and soon, he will fully succumb to corruption, at which point the Black Dragon will become a demon..."

"And that will be when darkness truly arrives!"

Someone spoke this news in despair.

Everyone realized.

Wang Yase.

Is a critical point!

But now.

They are powerless—they cannot even kill Wang Yase, not to mention the Wushi have appeared, and the Black Dragon certainly won't let them kill Wang Yase!

Moreover!

Wang Yase is the Crown Prince of the Tulong Gang, the former predecessor of Dengtian Pavilion—this identity alone makes anyone hesitate to act.

And the only solution...

Is...

A desperate strike!

Everyone realized the true critical point would emerge after Wang Yase fully succumbed to corruption.

In this suffocating atmosphere.

Dengtian Pavilion.

The leaders of the great powers, sects, and gangs were summoned to gather, and a final battle concerning Wang Yase gradually took shape.

Time.

The seventh day.

"..."

"..."

"..."

Wang Yase felt the surging dark energy within his body.

"I already..."

"... can't suppress it any longer."

Despair showed on Wang Yase's face.

Beside him.

Were Wang Da Dong, Ding Xiaoyu, and...

Ji'an!

Ji'an turned out to be a Demon-Slaying Warrior from Demon-Slaying Island — as long as Wang Yase fell into demonic corruption, he would cut him down. But now, Wang Da Dong and Ding Xiaoyu were blocking his way.

But Ji'an knew.

The Wang Yase before his eyes was far more terrifying than he had imagined; even if he struck with all his might, he might not be able to cut him down.

"A-Yu..."

"... hasn't come back yet."

Wang Da Dong clenched his fist.

Who could have imagined.

The only one who could bring hope — Lin Yu...

... had already vanished without a trace.

According to the news brought by Xiu, the Void Barrier seemed to have been attacked by demonic creatures. All trace of Lin Yu was completely lost; very likely...

... he had already perished in the spacetime tunnel!
