"You are always sinking."

"Wandering in the abyss of eternal calamity."

"Crawling in the endless darkness."

"Who are you? Who am I?"

"You're always looking for.."

"But there will never be an answer.."

Xu Han's ears once again heard the voice from the dream that had troubled him.

His voice was hoarse, his tone low, as if he was sobbing and complaining, as if he was sad as a song.

The anger that had arisen from seeing Liu Sheng's serious injuries suddenly dissipated from his chest at this moment. He no longer felt angry or grieved.

He looked calmly at the boundless darkness, at the pair of blood-red eyes in the depths of the darkness.

The bells on his right arm rang, and the copper plates in his arms moved restlessly, reminding him and calling him.

However, Xu Han didn't seem to feel anything about it.

"But I can."

"I can take you out of this abyss and climb out of this darkness."

"Hugging me is like hugging yourself."

"Down to this 10,000-year cage, up to the Myriad Domains starry sky."

"Those who imprison us will be destroyed, those who betray us will be slaughtered."

"Come.."

"Let's go out together!!!"

The tone of the voice gradually became loud from low to high, but in the end, it said those words in an almost howling voice.

However, Xu Han, who was staring at him, did not seem to be tempted by him.

The youth's gaze was still terrifyingly calm, as if even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, his eyebrows would not wrinkle at all.

His blood-red eyes blinked, and a strange expression surged out from his dignified gaze. He said again, "Let's kill together!!"

This time, his tone became louder and louder, like the flute played by the demonic mountain ghost.

However, Xu Han still didn't show any signs of being strange. He still stared at those blood-red eyes without saying a word.

His blood-red eyes were filled with rage, and the depths of this rage still contained some embarrassment and confusion that had been ignored.

At this moment, Xu Han suddenly sat down cross-legged. He narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Let's talk."

Blood glowed in his enormous eyes, but there was no longer a sound to respond to Xu Han.

However, Xu Han was not displeased by the owner's deep eyes. He said to himself, "The people in the sky want my life, and you want my body. I want to know why. Can you tell me the answer?"

Xu Han's tone could be considered sincere, but no one answered his question in the boundless darkness.

Xu Han was not discouraged by this either. He continued, "Although I don't know what you are, I have understood many times that even if you are strong enough to destroy the heavens and the earth, without my nod, you are still the prisoner that I imprisoned. Let's talk frankly. Perhaps I will agree to it."

Xu Han's words could be said to be extremely childish. Not to mention an ordinary person, even a smarter three to five-year-old child would probably be able to smell the trickery behind such empty promises.

Unexpectedly, when Xu Han's words fell, a voice sounded from the silent darkness.

The voice was filled with ridicule and contempt: "I am not the only one imprisoned, but you yourself. We have long been one."

"Well, you're right. Since we're all alone, we should be honest." Xu Han nodded repeatedly in agreement with the voice, but his expression was similar to that of a thief who had abducted a child.

"Humph! Put away your hypocrisy." The voice snorted coldly and then said coldly, "Your growth has indeed exceeded my expectations. I didn't expect you to be able to control yourself and not be controlled by me even under such rage. It seems that you have indeed prepared for this time for a long time."

When Xu Han heard this, a slight change finally appeared on his calm eyebrows.

The owner of the voice was right. For this time, Xu Han had made many preparations.

After experiencing the awakening of the Demon God hiding in his body several times, although Xu Han still did not know the origin of the other party, the killing intent and resentment wrapped in the Demon God's body allowed him to understand what kind of disaster this thing would bring to everything in this world once it truly awakened.

As he traveled south, Xu Han also knew that he would encounter all sorts of predictable and unpredictable troubles. He would inevitably step into a desperate situation. If this devil awakened again, what would he do to contend against it?

Therefore, before leaving, Xu Han went to Long Yin Temple and met Master Bu Ku.

After inquiring about the mysteries of the Great Dragon Elephant Seal, he asked Master Buku about a Buddhist technique known as the Prajna Heart Sutra. This technique was not profound, and some pilgrims from the Dragon Hidden Temple could learn it at will.

To be exact, this technique wasn't even considered a cultivation method. It was just a calm and peaceful method of visualization.

After obtaining this technique, Xu Han would spend half an hour meditating every day, thinking that if the Fiendgods awoke one day and used this technique to expel the hostility in his heart, there might still be a chance of survival.

However, this kind of technique was originally extremely profound, and Xu Han's cultivation time was still shallow, so he originally thought that it would be of great use in a short period of time.

The instant the Fiendgod awakened, Xu Han, who had realized that something was wrong, hurriedly activated this technique. What was unexpected was that Xu Han had actually suppressed the hostility in his heart due to his temperament that had been tempered by all sorts of things along the way. Only then did he have the situation where he could be in this strange space and talk to the Fiendgod.

"Everyone will change. You can't control me forever." Thinking of this, Xu Han said in a deep voice to his blood-red eyes.

However, when he said this, his eyes suddenly narrowed, and a mocking expression appeared in his long and narrow eyes.

"Everyone will not change. The world will eventually sail towards destruction, and you will eventually sail towards me."

"Whether it's once or a hundred times, this outcome will not change."

This was not the first time Xu Han had heard such words. For some reason, these words caused his heart to feel a little uneasy, but he tried his best to suppress them. Then he said, "Perhaps, but at least for now, my life is still in my hands."

"Your hand?" The owner of the blood-colored eyes sneered, "What, don't you want to avenge your friend?"

Xu Han frowned. He knew that this voice was referring to Liu Sheng, whose wings had been torn off and whose life and death were unknown. The other party tried to shake the anger that Xu Han suppressed in his heart. He silently chanted the Prajna Heart Sutra once more in his heart before deciphering the other party's clumsy yet effective method. Then, Xu Hanyan said, "Even if I really want to take revenge, I will use my own hands to tear apart the other party's head."

"How stupid. Don't you understand? I've already awakened. Your anger and despair are the most wonderful nourishment for me. Although that inferior cultivation method can calm your heart for a while, it can't stabilize your state of mind forever."

"In this world I created, the outside world is almost still. A thousand years or ten thousand years is just a flick of the finger. You can reject me, but you can't escape from this world. I have plenty of time to erode your state of mind. You are destined to be mine!"

After those blood-red eyes finished speaking, a monstrous amount of black gas suddenly surged over and wrapped around Xu Han.

Xu Han's expression changed. He naturally knew that what the owner of the voice had said was true. The awakening of the Demon God was not something he could control. He was only passively defending his heart, preventing himself from being devoured by the other party, but he was unable to really repel it.

The black gas surged in and invaded Xu Han's body. The violent energy began to surge in his chest. Xu Han's body trembled, and blood-red light instantly appeared in his eyes. However, he quickly realized this and quickly circulated the Prajna Heart Sutra to suppress this evil aura.

"I've waited for so many years. I don't mind waiting for a while. I want to see how long you can last." As the Demon God spoke, the mockery in his tone became even more intense.

Xu Han could clearly feel beads of sweat appearing on his forehead. His face was pale and his upper and lower lips began to tremble.

Although the Prajna Heart Sutra could temporarily stabilize his temperament, the black gas surrounding him continued to invade his body. If this continued, the effect of the Prajna Heart Sutra would become weaker and weaker.

Time began to flow. Of course, this flow was only aimed at this small world created by this Fiendgod.

In a world without heaven and earth, without sun and moon, time was not a concrete concept.

Perhaps it was just a blink of an eye, or perhaps thousands of years had passed.

Xu Han, who was sitting quietly here, had a silent expression on his face, but his body was constantly trembling. The veins on his forehead burst out, and dense traces of sweat flowed down his cheeks, almost soaking his entire clothes.

A wisp of eagerness gradually appeared in the blood-red eyes that were watching him from afar. This was the first time in tens of thousands of years that he had come so close to breaking through the cage. Thinking of this, even with his status, he couldn't help but feel a little excited in his heart.

He stared fixedly at Xu Han. The youth's body was already on the verge of collapsing like a boat in the waves.

Just as he was almost ready to take over his coveted body, a peculiar expression suddenly surged out from between his eyebrows.

He saw a starlight suddenly shining in Xu Han's body. That starlight protected Xu Han's mind and constantly defended against the impact of the black gas.

"This is his thing!" A murderous aura surfaced in his blood-red eyes. He gritted his teeth and said, as if a crippled jackal had found the hunter who had injured him.

"Just this starlight, do you think you can protect him?" He asked in a tone filled with deep hatred.

Black Qi surged towards Xu Han like a sharp sword, continuously assaulting his body, as if it was about to tear him apart completely.

This starlight was left to him by the surveillance.

The power wrapped within the starlight was so powerful that even Xu Han couldn't tell how powerful it was. After resisting the Heavenly Thunder and Heavenly Punishment Sword's Origin Energy, it hadn't diminished at all. Hence, Xu Han had no choice but to take out this item once more in the face of the black qi stimulated by the Demon God. This could be said to be his last barrier.

At the same time, Xu Han's energy from the collision of the black gas and the starlight began to circulate the technique of the "Great Dragon Elephant Seal" according to the principle of maximizing its use. He continuously absorbed it into his body, enduring the heart-wrenching pain and pouring it into his fleshly body to temper it.

The black gas that was striking the starlight grew denser and denser. Xu Han noticed that the powerful starlight had gradually dimmed under the impact of the black gas. Xu Han's originally turbulent mind sank even more. Although his body had grown stronger at a visible speed under the control of the 'Big Dragon Elephant Seal', once the starlight shattered, he knew exactly what it meant to Xu Han at this moment.

It wasn't that Xu Han didn't want to do anything to resist the fate that was about to befall him. However, in front of this powerful Fiendgod, all of his calculations were insignificant. He could only accelerate the activation of the "Great Dragon Elephant Seal" to temper his body. He thought that if the starlight shattered, he could rely on this to do more. Even if it was meaningless, he still had to resist.

Time flowed again.

The starlight around Xu Han grew dimmer and dimmer. It was like a candle flickering in the night breeze that could be extinguished at any moment.

His blood-colored eyes were filled with excitement once again. He could already see that Xu Han was at the end of his rope. As long as the starlight shattered, nothing could stop him from devouring Xu Han's body.

Xu Han also felt this.

The veins on his forehead bulged even more, as if they would explode in the next moment. His brows furrowed tightly together, as if they were gathering deeper and deeper like ravines.

'"Hurry up .." "Hurry up .." he murmured to himself as if he was talking in a dream.

His fleshly body had already reached the half-step Immortal Realm, The power of the starlight colliding with the black gas nourished his physical body once again, causing his physical cultivation to rise again. At this moment, he was getting closer and closer to the Sacred Body Realm. Perhaps even if he reached this stage, Xu Han might not be able to change his current situation. After all, the power of this Fiendgod was far beyond that of an ordinary immortal.

But Xu Han's temperament was like this. Even if there was no hope, he never had the thought of giving up.

He wanted to resist and fight. For this reason, he had to firmly grasp every single point of his strength.

The blood energy in his body began to surge. It seemed that he had reached the critical point. With just a single kick from the door, he could break through the heavenly chasm of the Immortal Realm and reach the sacrifice of his body that no one had ever done in ancient times.

Bang!

But at this moment, a crisp sound exploded in the dark space.

The starlight protecting Xu Han shattered, and the black gas filled the sky like a flood that had found a gate began to frantically surge towards Xu Han..

"Coming." The ghost's voice echoed in the darkness of the space, and his blood-red eyes burned with scorching colors.

Xu Han's heart went cold. The moment the black gas poured into his body, he felt an irresistible force rapidly corroding his body. A violent aura surged in his heart. Even if the Prajna Heart Sutra was frantically circulated by him, it would be difficult to suppress this irresistible force that was like a river or a sea.

Am I really going to die here?

Such thoughts inevitably appeared in Xu Han's mind. The pressure brought by that force was almost irresistible. All of Xu Han's methods seemed insignificant under that force, and they collapsed upon contact.

The dark space began to churn. His blood-red eyes were constantly approaching Xu Han. He was waiting. In less than ten breaths, Xu Han's body would be occupied by the evil energy triggered by the black gas. At that time, he could use this as a guide to completely devour Xu Han's body and fulfill his long-cherished wish to descend into the world.

Just as Xu Han had thought, he did not think that at this stage, there was anyone else who could save Xu Han's current defeat.

But at the moment when Xu Han's eyes were about to be completely infected by that black gas.

A golden line suddenly split between Xu Han's eyebrows, and terrifying rays of light shot out from the golden line.

Under the golden light, his blood-red eyes seemed to have encountered the most terrifying thing in the world. A look of fear appeared on his face. He quickly retreated, and the black gas surrounding Xu Han also began to dissipate at a visible rate under the golden light.

"This is" muttered the owner of the blood-red eyes, his tone filled with terror and horror.

Suddenly, the golden thread between Xu Han's eyebrows suddenly split open, and a figure actually gushed out from the golden light.

It seemed to be a man. His body jumped high and a snow-white saber in his hand illuminated the heavens and earth.

His eyes were like tigers, and his body was like a dragon.

In that moment, apart from his saber, there was nothing else between heaven and earth.

In the darkness, his blood-red eyes were completely opened by him. He stared at the figure leaping out from between Xu Han's eyebrows, and finally couldn't suppress the fear in his heart.

He shouted, "It's you! It's you!"

"How is that possible! How can you still be alive.."

Before he could finish his sentence, the saber in that figure's hand landed on his body.

Boom!

With a loud explosion.

Wherever his blade touched, countless viper-like cracks spread out, and the world that covered the darkness also spread to the body of Time.

Bang.

Following that, there was another soft sound, and the world and the figure were shattered like glass at that time.

..

Within the starry sky thousands of kilometers away, the man with the sword on his back, the starlight above his head, and the blazing sun in his eyes suddenly stopped waving his saber.

He remained silent, and the figures around him, who were wrapped in darkness, charged towards him like a tide, but the man seemed to be unaware of this.

His expression was gloomy, and his eyes were filled with sorrow.

He placed the saber in his hand in front of him, and slowly extended his other hand to stroke the snow-white blade, as if he was remembering it, as if it was tracing it back.

Suddenly, his hand that was stroking the blade stopped. A teardrop fell from the corner of his eye and gently dripped onto the blade.

It sounded like some sort of edict.

Everything around him suddenly stopped at that moment..

Then, the man's body suddenly jumped high, and the saber in his hand was also raised high by him at that time.

He said loudly, shaking the entire world.

"This saber is for you!"
