"Die."
The Demon Lord's aura surged.
The demonic energy on Chu Laomo's body carried the essence of life and death, making even him envious. "Mine."
As the words fell, he directly devoured it.
"Heh heh."
Chu Laomo chuckled, letting the other party devour it.
His spiritual consciousness slowly dispersed.
A smile still lingered on his face as he looked at the Demon Lord and asked, "Do you know from whom I received my Dao of Life and Death?"
Demon Lord: "???"
"The City Lord."
Chu Laomo grew even calmer. "My Dao of Life and Death came from the City Lord. He bestowed it upon me, and from then on, I had the capital to be reborn."
"What are you trying to say?" the Demon Lord asked, confused.
"Sigh."
Chu Laomo sighed. "I just wanted to tell you, you imbecile, you dare to devour anything. You're seeking your own death..."
"What..."
Boom.
The Demon Lord's words were cut short.
Life and death erupted.
Life and death belonged to Chen Fan.
Chu Laomo was right. The Demon Lord, who dared to devour anything, had his Great Dao of Demonic Power occupied by life and death.
"Chu Laomo."
Boom.
The Demon Lord's Dao shattered.
The broken Dao transformed into rolling waves that enveloped Chu Laomo.
"Hahaha."
Chu Laomo roared with laughter.
The gluttonous maw reappeared, devouring the Demon Lord's consciousness. "Old man, let me teach you a lesson. You shouldn't eat things indiscriminately, especially... the City Lord."
The last sentence carried a hint of mockery.
"So, you can die now," Chu Laomo said with immense joy.
No matter how the Demon Lord roared or resisted, he could not change his fate of being devoured.
His consciousness slowly dispersed.
"Why?" the Demon Lord asked, unwilling to accept it.
He, who was supposed to be the overlord of the East, had fallen and perished time and again because of these people. He had even been forced to flee the East and pledge allegiance to the Light.
This time, with the Lord of Light emerging from seclusion, nearly two hundred Great Emperors from the West had marched towards the East, and the result... was this?
It should have been a crushing victory, but it had dragged on until now.
He was on the verge of enjoying the fruits of victory, yet he was dying.
Unwillingness, frustration, anger.
His consciousness finally dissipated completely.
Boom.
The Demon Lord's demise became Chu Laomo's ascension.
The sky-shattering demonic flames surged, and with the Demon Lord's power, Chu Laomo broke through to the eighth realm, becoming the first eighth-realm cultivator in the Life and Death Realm.
Lie Tian and the others were outsiders.
While the City Lord was still in the seventh realm, Chu Laomo had already stepped into the eighth realm.
"Hahaha." BAFENG NOVEL
Chu Laomo burst into laughter. "Heaven and Earth, I am the Demon. I will be the greatest Demon in the world, hahaha..."
With his injuries fully healed, Chu Laomo began to rampage in all directions.
"Kill, kill, kill!"
Behind him followed a vast expanse of shadows, charging forward.
Fearless of life and death.
He charged wherever the enemy was most numerous.
On the other side, the battle between the Sky-piercing Rat and the Treasure Rat continued, with neither side able to gain the upper hand.
...
At the border between the South and the West.
It had to be said that the Yin-Yang Dao Master was truly powerful to contend with the Light for a million years.
Facing the supreme ninth realm, the Yin-Yang Dao Master did not retreat an inch, continuously engaging the opponent in battle.
With the combined might of dozens of Great Emperors from the South, they had managed to shatter the Light's Dharma Body.
"Light!"
The Yin-Yang Dao Master stood on the Yin-Yang Rainbow Bridge, his gaze fixed on the Light Emperor Mountain, his battle intent surging in all directions. "Where is your true form? If you don't come out, I will march east and slaughter all your subordinates."
He possessed such strength.
An eighth-realm cultivator who could contend with a ninth-realm cultivator was incredibly powerful.
"Ping Xi."
A figure appeared silently.
It was too fast.
As the Yin-Yang Dao Master's pupils contracted, the figure appeared a hundred feet in front of him, looking at the Yin-Yang Dao Master calmly.
This display alone sent the Five Elements Thunder Emperors behind the Yin-Yang Dao Master into a state of panic.
They had not detected it at all.
Or, was the speed of the Lord of Light truly faster than light?
"Light."
Only the Yin-Yang Dao Master remained unfazed.
A hint of disdain flickered in his eyes. "Flimsy tricks. Even after becoming a ninth-realm cultivator, you haven't changed your habit of showing off. This is why you are inferior to the Thunder Lord."
The Yin-Yang Dao Master spoke of the opponent's origins.
He chuckled dismissively. "Using such trivial tricks in front of me, heh heh... Do you think I am ignorant?"
The Yin-Yang Dao Master dismissed the opponent's tactics as worthless.
The Light did not get angry. On the surface, he appeared to be an ordinary man, showing no signs of joy or sorrow, no emotional fluctuations.
Only a faint aura of light emanated.
Light, purification.
The unobtrusive power of light actually dispersed the hostility of the Five Elements Thunder Emperors.
"Ping Xi."
The Light spoke, his voice as ethereal as celestial music. "Give up. You are no match for me. Continue to be the overlord of the South, and let the grievances of the past scatter like the wind."
His words were like a gentle breeze.
A simple sentence evoked a sense of goodwill in the hearts of the Five Elements Thunder Emperors.
In an instant, even the way they looked at the Lord of Light softened considerably.
"This is the bearing of a true overlord," everyone thought.
They did not compete or strive, and the Five Elements Thunder Emperors were envious.
Looking at the Dao Master, who refused to back down, they felt a hint of dissatisfaction.
Subconsciously, it seemed as if the Dao Master was always opposing the Lord of Light, while the Lord of Light repeatedly made concessions.
The Metal Element Great Emperor among the Five Elements Thunder Emperors instinctively spoke, "Dao Master, I think..."
"Silence."
Boom.
The Yin-Yang Dao erupted.
A roar exploded from within the Metal Element Great Emperor.
Crack.
Something within the Metal Element Great Emperor seemed to break.
"You..."
This scene enraged the other four Thunder Emperors, and an indescribable anger arose towards the Dao Master. "Ping..."
"Shut up."
The Metal Element Great Emperor's reprimand rang out.
At the same time, the Metal Element Great Emperor quickly walked back, approaching his four brothers and acting swiftly.
Bang, bang, bang.
The sound of something breaking simultaneously emanated from within the four bodies.
In the depths of their being, it seemed as if a Great Dao was dissipating.
In an instant, the five brothers' faces turned ashen, and their gazes towards the Lord of Light were filled with terror.
They had fallen for it.
Silently, they had been controlled by the power of light.
Cold sweat trickled down the five brothers' faces... How could they dare to disrespect the Dao Master?
"Dao Master..."
The Metal Element Great Emperor wanted to explain.
"Help the others."
The Yin-Yang Dao Master did not blame them.
A few breathed a sigh of relief and quickly went to help others remove the Lord of Light's control.
Soon, as everyone regained their senses, their gazes towards the Lord of Light were filled with terror.
The Lord of Light did not stop them.
He remained calm and said, "Why bother? In this world, only light can expel darkness. Pure light is what everyone yearns for."
"Heh heh."
The Yin-Yang Dao Master sneered. "Light, purity... What is the relationship between them?"
"Everyone in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths knows that you, under the guise of light, are actually the most insidious villain. Light... Bah!"
The Yin-Yang Dao Master revealed the true nature of the Light.
She never looked down on anyone, but she despised the Lord of Light before her.
Silently manipulating people's minds, was this your so-called Dao of Purity?
