A lamb entering a tiger’s den, it was the perfect description of the current situation.
In Shadow Lord’s shocked gaze, layers upon layers of wooden shields had already taken shape before him.
*Rip…* A sharp tearing sound echoed as his Shadow Blade, unstoppable as ever, pierced through thousands of shields in an instant.
Yet, there was not a trace of satisfaction in Shadow Lord’s expression, because…
*Booom, booom…* Two deafening explosions erupted as the lightning spear struck his body, followed closely by a crimson beam crashing down on him.
That crimson beam was one of Yu Zi Yu’s most conventional means of attack, and also the deadliest, second only to his Grand Divine Ability, the Nine Realms of Heaven, and was known as the Annihilation Beam.
After all, Yu Zi Yu’s Heavenly Eye, which had nurtured the Nine Realm of Heaven Grand Divine Ability, how could its other ability be mediocre.
It shattered all illusions and obliterated everything in its path.
*Booooom…* With an earth-shattering explosion, Shadow Lord was sent hurtling backward, much to his disbelief.
10,000 meters…
100,000 meters…
…
The pain surging through his body was already unbearable, but what truly filled him with despair was the ever-widening distance between him and Yu Zi Yu.
For an assassin, increasing the distance meant losing the chance to strike.
Even worse, he had been exposed.
In other words, he had lost his best opportunity.
“Haha…” With a bitter smile, Shadow Lord could not help but hoarsely laugh out.
“Impressive… Truly impressive…” Words of praise escaped his lips.
His admiration was sincere.
Though he had no idea what method Yu Zi Yu had used, being able to block his assassination and even retaliate with such force—these were feats worthy of acknowledgment.
However, that didn’t mean he was ready to give up.
The moment he launched his attack, there was no turning back.
*Hoooo…* Taking a deep breath, Shadow Lord steadied his footing, his eyes narrowing coldly.
Beneath his feet, shadows coiled and surged, healing his injuries in an instant.
Even so, he couldn’t deny the fact that Yu Zi Yu’s assault had been terrifying.
Even with his Tier-7 Spirit Armor, the Shadow Cloak, he had barely managed to withstand the onslaught.
Even after his wounds had healed, a searing pain still lingered in his internal organs, accompanied by a faint, spreading numbness.
Shadow Lord cast a cold glance at Yu Zi Yu before lifting his Shadow Blade, a chilling smile forming on his lips. “I had planned to grant you a swift death… But it seems I no longer need to.”
As he spoke, his gaze shifted toward Nether God and the King of Lightning, who stood in the distance.
“If you two continue to hold back… this battle is already over.” His voice carried both warning and command.
*Hmph…* Snorting coldly, both the Nether God and the King of Lightning exchanged glances before nodding slightly.
“It seems we can’t afford to hold back any longer…” With a sigh, the King of Lightning ran his fingers across an ancient bronze tome in his hand.
At that moment, an Elemental Energy far greater than before surged forth, heralding a sight that sent shockwaves across the battlefield.
The Elemental Dragons wreaking havoc in the Elemental Sea—those manifestations of pure energy—began to entwine and merge, coalescing into a colossal Lightning Dragon that spanned hundreds of thousands of feet.
Yet, this was only the beginning.
Within the Elemental Sea, the raging Lightning surged outward, expanding until the entire Elemental Tide was transformed into a vast sea of lightning.
*Crackle… Crackle…* Bolts of lightning streaked across the Starry Sky, turning half of it into a domain of thunder and destruction.
This was Elemental Conversion, the most terrifying ability of the Book of Elements—an unparalleled power that allowed the wielder to convert all Elements into their chosen form.
With this ability, the King of Lightning had effortlessly transmuted every surrounding Element into lightning. Even the Elemental Tide stirred by Yu Zi Yu was not spared.
As a result, the power under his command surged at an astonishing rate.
In just a few breaths, an overwhelming Lightning Energy roiled beneath his feet, so terrifying that it evoked the feeling that it could eradicate the entire Starry Sky.
Meanwhile, the colossal Lightning Dragon, hundreds of thousands of meters long, rose from the sea of lightning, cradling the King of Lightning upon its head.
Standing calmly in this world of lightning, with the sea of lightning thrashing below and the bolts of lightning crackling high above, he seemed to have truly become the incarnation of lightning itself, a godlike existence of unfathomable might.
On the other side…
*Roooar, roooar…* A cacophony of deep, guttural roars echoed like tidal waves.
The Nether God, whose body had been bound by Yu Zi Yu’s Nine-Stars Sun-Locking Formation, began to swell at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At the same time, the illusory figure, over a hundred meters tall, floated toward him, merging into his body.
“I offer my blood to the Demon Spirit… I offer my Soul to the Netherworld…”
With a hint of determination, Nether God declared in a resonant voice.
The moment these words left his tongue, an increasingly terrifying force surged into the Starry Sky.
Demonic Energy swept across half the cosmos, as if heralding the descent of some monstrous, wicked entity.
“This is more like it…” Watching the Nether God and the King of Lightning unveil their trump cards, the Shadow Lord let out a cold chuckle.
They had been hiding their strength all this time. It was a ploy to seize the easiest victory.
However, now, they had no choice.
If they held back any longer, not only would they die, but even he, Shadow Lord, would perish alongside them.
Thus, going all out was the only path forward.
*Squilish…* Suddenly, the Shadow Lord slashed his own right arm with the Shadow Blade, dying the blade red.
*Drip, drip…* As the blood trickled down the blade, a sinister red glow surged forth.
Even more terrifying, from where he stood, an endless darkness spread outward, devouring everything in its path.
The shadows were his true domain.
And within this darkness, he was the ultimate hunter—the unseen executioner lurking in the void.
…
“This… this is bad. Those three have gotten serious. The Demon Court’s Supreme Lord is doomed now.”
In a distant corner of the cosmos, a colossal figure—part Snake, part Dragon—stretching ten thousand meters, muttered in shock, its face plastered with disbelief.
He was the Nether Dragon Serpent—a renowned entity among the Dragon Clan.
However, he had never imagined that upon entering the Western Sector, he would witness such an earth-shattering battle—the Supreme Lord of the Demon Court fighting alone against three, clashing directly with three Imperial Artifacts.
Although their wielders lacked the strength to unleash the true godlike might of the Artifacts, even in their current state, the power they could wield was comparable to that of a Hegemon.
Suppressing the shock in his heart, the Nether Dragon Serpent could not help but sigh. “It’s over… this time, it’s truly over…
Though the Demon Court’s Lord has displayed unfathomable power beyond all imagination, his three adversaries have gone all out, revealing their final trump cards.
With that, his fate was sealed.”
