The black silhouette also resembled an incorporeal being, but Ye Kunlun could clearly sense that the other party was far more intelligent than the divine shadows he had encountered before.
In fact, Ye Kunlun detected a powerful aura from the opponent, undoubtedly the strongest person he had encountered so far.
If, that is, the opponent could be called a person.
“This is not a place you should be. Leave!”
The dark figure spoke, as if a pair of deep eyes were gazing at Ye Kunlun.
Boom—
Ye Kunlun’s aura erupted, and golden and green light blazed from his pupils, left and right, meeting the opponent’s gaze.
Ye Kunlun felt a sense of dread in his heart.
In his eyes, they were pairs of intensely black pupils, like two immeasurably vast planets, covered in interwoven red lines resembling veins, exuding an immense pressure.
They were eyeballs, they were also colossal planets, and they were also two living entities.
“Who are you?”
Ye Kunlun spoke, fearless and resolute.
“You don’t need to know now. This world originally belonged to us. We are merely returning to our own world,” the dark figure replied, its voice tinged with a faint helplessness.
“So, you created the Qi of Misfortune?” Ye Kunlun gazed at the opponent.
No matter who the opponent was or whether they belonged to this world, he would not allow misfortune to encroach.
After all, there were people in this world whom he protected!
“Misfortune is the original power of this world,” the dark figure stated, its aura fluctuating slightly.
The black liquid flowing from the ancient tree began to boil.
Instantly, misfortune’s power, dense as water, spread outwards from the ancient tree.
Soon, the flow of misfortune reached within three meters of Ye Kunlun, only to be stopped by his protective true energy.
“We just wanted to return to our world,” the dark figure spoke again. “But that person sealed us here, for millennia, for tens of thousands of years, through endless ages…”
“We should return…”
Listening to the dark figure’s words, Ye Kunlun calmly analyzed the information within them!
One, this world was originally filled with the power of misfortune, and they were the original inhabitants of this world.
Two, a powerful being had expelled them and sealed them within this strange temple.
Three, they had been sealed here for at least ten thousand years.
Four, the powerful beings of that era were countless times stronger than he was now. Perhaps the world had no celestial shackles back then.
Any single piece of information was immensely impactful to Ye Kunlun!
Not to mention anything else, with his current strength, it would be impossible to seal the power of misfortune for ten thousand years.
“Who sealed you here?” Ye Kunlun asked calmly.
“Who?” The dark figure’s voice carried a hint of confusion, falling into a brief silence.
After the silence, its voice was filled with hatred, “He is the master of this world, yet he abandoned his people…”
“He betrayed his kin, he is a sinner, he deserves to die! Deserves to die!”
The dark figure seemed to recall something, its emotions becoming agitated, and the power of misfortune churned like colossal waves.
A storm of misfortune whipped around Ye Kunlun.
“We should return. This world originally belonged to us. Damn it, damn it, you all deserve to die!” httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
As the opponent lost control, the colossal ancient tree swayed, and the black and white fruits on it shook violently.
Crack—
A fruit split open.
With a hum, Ye Kunlun saw thumb-sized black figures emerge from the husk, their black membranous wings vibrating!
Soon, one fruit after another cracked open, and countless black figures, like the ‘demons’ of myth and legend, were born.
Waaah—
Their shrill cries, like those of children, caused unease and vexation!
The little demons, upon emerging, rushed towards the canopy of the ancient tree.
The next second, the canopy lit up, blocking them directly.
Ye Kunlun keenly sensed that the canopy held a powerful barrier, likely the seal left by the powerful being from ten thousand years ago!
Even now, Ye Kunlun could feel the formidable nature of the seal!
Waaah—
The little demons shrieked madly, and after colliding with the seal, they transformed into black misfortune, returning to the ancient tree to be nurtured anew, forming fruits, in an endless cycle.
Ye Kunlun watched this scene with alarm!
Meanwhile.
In the capital, at the ancestral home of the Changsun family!
The seal that Ye Kunlun had set suddenly lit up. Black mist surged from the seal in the back mountain, seemingly attempting to break through the seal Ye Kunlun had established.
“Heh heh, we’re back, we’re finally back…”
“Hee hee hee, yes, we’re back. The taste of humans, hee hee, the taste of food…”
Within the black mist were naked figures!
The reason they were called people was because they possessed the same facial features as humans, but their ears were pointed, and their eyes were a pale reddish-brown, giving them a somewhat demonic appearance.
“Damn it, a seal, another seal…”
“Break it, hee hee, let’s break it together!”
At the same time, at the Changsun family.
The patterns on the back of the Black Tortoise, lying quietly in the Black Tortoise Well, instantly illuminated.
The moment the patterns on its back lit up, the tortoise shells of the eight Black Tortoises surrounding the well also lit up simultaneously.
A profound power emanated from the eight Black Tortoises, then converged within the Black Tortoise Well.
Boom—
The Black Tortoise Well unleashed a terrifying five-elemental power, shooting directly towards the direction of the Changsun family!
In the blink of an eye, it merged into the formation set up by Ye Kunlun!
“Ahhh—damn it, that’s the aura of that damned fellow!”
“No, no, no, we want to get out, we must get out!”
The figures with pale reddish-brown, pointed ears roared frantically, but they were instantly annihilated by the terrifying aura from the Black Tortoise Well.
“Roar—”
An angry roar echoed from the back mountain seal.
A moment later, the roaring subsided, the Yin-Sha power within the Changsun family fell quiet, and the formation vanished.
On the Mountain River Platform.
Inside the great hall.
Long Qi’s face was extremely pale, her body drenched in sweat, but her face held a stubborn expression.
The Mountain River Pendant in her hand was surrounded by purple energy, and faint dragon shadows could be seen flickering, though the dragon shadows appeared incredibly weak.
The Mountain River Pendant was born from China’s destiny, condensing its luck, and was immensely powerful!
However, the weakened and withered dragon shadows of the Mountain River Pendant indicated that China’s destiny was in a precarious state.
“Junior brother…” Long Qi murmured softly, “Little rascal, Master once said that your destiny could not be fathomed even by the Heavenly Dao, that you were the only variable in this world. Elder sister has bet everything on you…”
Determination filled Long Qi’s eyes. She believed in Ye Kunlun.
Puff—
Long Qi spat out a mouthful of blood, the blood staining the Mountain River Pendant in her hand.
Deep within the divine temple, beneath the ancient tree!
Ye Kunlun sensed the change in the Mountain River Pendant within his ring.
The next second, the Mountain River Pendant quietly appeared in Ye Kunlun’s hand.
Seeing the Mountain River Pendant in Ye Kunlun’s hand, the dark figure on the tree suddenly calmed down, its voice filled with surprise:
“Dragon Vein Spiritual Crystal!”
