Vinnie Berendt's mind was filled with the words "impossible." The awakening of the Wind and Thunder Gods meant that the Night Emperor had also awakened, but that was impossible.
After stepping into the Demigod Realm, the Night Emperor was unable to resist his own sleepiness and fell into a slumber from which he would never wake.
For half a century, he had never awakened, no matter how hard the Eternal Night Church tried, they had failed to awaken this Demigod.
It was also impossible for the Wind and Thunder Gods to break free from the slumber curse on their own. If they could have, they wouldn't have fallen asleep in the first place.
Because the characteristic of Eternal Night professions is that the longer they sleep, the more their soul and body tend towards annihilation. The longer it dragged on, the less likely they were to wake up.
Vinnie Berendt was about to say "Are you sure?"
When she heard the Spirit Realm notification in her ear: [Ding! Boreas, the Thunder God, has had his moral points cleared to zero. Killing the two can get a generous reward.]
At this moment, the Spirit Realm Walkers existing in the real world all received the Spirit Realm notification.
Last December, the Wind and Thunder Gods, the culprits who caused the natural disaster that paralyzed a city and killed more than 100,000 people, had returned once again. All the high-ranking members of the two major camps were plunged into panic at this moment.
Kyoto, the Five Elements Alliance headquarters, in a conference room that combined high-tech monitoring and spying systems with soundproofing and Wraith prevention formations, nine beams of light were projected down.
The Nine Elders appeared in the fluorescent blue beams, looking at each other. A solemn atmosphere spread in the silence... No one spoke for a long time.
After a moment, Great Elder Di Hong spoke first, his tone heavy: "The Wind and Thunder Gods have awakened. Heavenly Punishment just called us for help, hoping for the power of the Peak Overlords of Order to jointly fight against the Wind and Thunder Gods."
Great Elder of the Crimson Fire Gang slammed the table and roared: "This isn't a request for help, it's inviting us to hell together!"
Mysterious Elder sighed, "There are no Demigods in the real world anymore. Facing such high-level powerhouses, all we can do is watch and pray. To act like a praying mantis trying to stop a chariot is suicide. It has no meaning."
After the fusion of the Wind and Thunder Gods, their level reached 12. Even if all the Level 9 peak players in the world took to the field, the Wind and Thunder Gods could chop from south to north and then from north to south without even getting tired.
Great Elder of the Water God Palace looked around and said, "So we're just going to watch?"
"Otherwise?" Mysterious Elder said lightly: "The Wind and Thunder Gods are too high-level. With no Demigods around, how can we stop them? Starting from reality, this is beyond our ability to handle."
"And from a selfish point of view, anyway, it won't affect us here. It's the Free Federation's business, let the Free Federation solve it themselves. There's no reason for us to risk our lives to clean up the Heavenly Punishment's mess. We just need to manage our own affairs."
"And although the Wind and Thunder Gods are crazy, their instinct to hunt down evil professions is still there. Maybe they can eliminate many evil camp experts. Although they no longer care about the lives of ordinary people, this is beyond our control."
As they spoke, the Spirit Realm notification kept echoing in their minds, meaning that the Wind and Thunder Gods were slaughtering indiscriminately, points were deducted again and again, and the Spirit Realm issued wanted orders again and again.
The eight Peak Overlords looked at each other, neither refuting Mysterious Elder nor agreeing with his view.
But at this time, silence was tacit consent. At this moment, Elder of the Sword Pavilion tapped the table and said in a deep voice: "You're discussing the wrong key point. Shouldn't the key point be why the Wind and Thunder Gods awakened?!"
"If they awakened, what about the Night Emperor?"
The Elders trembled in their hearts, and a strong sense of unease arose for no reason.
Free Federation, an office building in New York County.
An Diexi rushed into the boss's office in a panic, watching Zhai Cai, who was wearing a black mink coat and stuffing expensive wine and cigars into his backpack, and said, "Boss, the Wind and, Wind and Thunder Gods have appeared again. Boss, what are you doing?"
"What else can the boss do? The boss is preparing to run away." Zhai Cai gave orders unhappily: "Diexi, bring me that box of watches worth five million Federal dollars."
An Diexi was stunned for a moment: "Shouldn't we respond to Heavenly Punishment's call, discuss countermeasures, and jointly fight against the Wind and Thunder Gods? It's not good to be a deserter as soon as we join Heavenly Punishment."
"Stupid!" Zhai Cai sneered: "The Demigods have all entered the instance, and my armor has been borrowed by the Void Society Elder. How can we, these ants, fight against the Wind and Thunder Gods?"
"Sacrifice is the destiny of a knight, this is what you said..."
"Sacrifice is not suicide." After a busy time, Zhai Cai threw out a teleportation jade talisman and said: "The Wind and Thunder Gods will follow the spiritual power to kill Spirit Realm Walkers. The higher the level, the easier it is to be targeted. I'm going to Huaguo to find Yuan Shi Tian Zun. If Huaguo is also affected, we'll join his gang and enter the gang instance to avoid it."
After saying that, with a "crack" sound, he crushed the teleportation jade talisman in his hand.
The Returned Dead Group!
Sun Miaomiao, "Hey, what's going on? Weren't the Wind and Thunder Gods sealed? How did they come out again?"
Red Chicken Bro: "What's there to worry about? There are tall people to hold up the sky. Didn't the five Alliance Leaders take action to quell the Wind and Thunder Gods last time? This time it will be calmed down quickly too."
The entire chat group suddenly fell silent, and no one spoke for a long time.
Including his trusted subordinate, Fear King, everyone's first reaction was that Shura was planning to give up this struggle, choose to retreat and preserve his strength.
But the next second, they saw the Master of Taiyi Sect, who had retreated to the back of the Order Demigods at some unknown time, take out a small three-legged cauldron from his inventory.
He tilted the cauldron's mouth and poured out a middle-aged man wearing a black robe, with a pale face, no hair, no beard, no eyebrows, and emerald green eyes.
Night Emperor!
How could the Night Emperor be here? How could the Night Emperor be in the Master of Taiyi Sect's item!
Seeing this middle-aged man appear, the evil Demigods felt a huge wave in their hearts, and their pupils contracted sharply.
The middle-aged man with no hair, no beard, and no eyebrows sat down on the ground, lowered his eyes, and without looking at the Demigods present, made a hollow and loud voice, "Domain."
As soon as they heard these two words, the evil Demigods disappeared from the spot like startled rabbits, so fast that it seemed as if they had learned teleportation...
A deep darkness swelled from the Night Emperor's body, rapidly spreading, encompassing hundreds of kilometers, extinguishing all spiritual power, and putting everything to sleep.
The Order Demigods looked back in astonishment and were instantly swallowed by the deep darkness.
Lord of the Stars! Emotions such as anger, incomprehension, and confusion flashed through their minds. Their steps staggered a few times. Their bodies, spiritual power, and spirit were unable to resist, and he inevitably fell into slumber.
"Plop, plop, plop." The Level 10 Order Demigods fell to the barren land one after another, falling into eternal sleep. The Night Emperor, who was equally specialized as the Goddess of Beauty, only had the ability to sleep. He could even pull the Wind and Thunder Gods into slumber, let alone them.
Only the Void Demigod, who had the strongest mobility, the Level 10 Goddess of Beauty, and the Xie family ancestor, who held the Demon Refining Pot, did not immediately fall asleep when the darkness spread and managed to escape the confinement of the slumber domain in time.
Of course, there was also the Lord of the Stars, who had already Star-Teleported to a distant place.
"Lord of the Stars!!" An angry roar came from the high sky. The Void Society Elder, wearing a silver mask, had a brightly shining Myriad Treasure Tree rushing out behind him. He hung the black heart covered with pores and the dark golden female mask on the top of the Myriad Treasure Tree.
He looked down at the Lord of the Stars condescendingly. The surrounding air twisted and boiled, reaching the extreme of anger: "You really are a double agent! I'm going to skin you alive, I'm going to make your body and soul annihilated!"
The evil Demigods who had successfully escaped the slumber domain stared dumbfounded at this scene, looking at the Order Demigods who had fallen to the ground and were almost wiped out in one fell swoop.
They could not understand what was happening before their eyes and could not understand how the Lord of the Stars and the Night Emperor had hooked up.
Even more, they did not understand the significance of what the Lord of the Stars had done.
Only Ling Tuo frowned tightly, seeming to have understood something, and his face changed.
"Puff!"
At this moment, a bronze-colored blade tip pierced out from his chest. This blade was covered with bronze rust, and the blade was blood-red. It was a bronze scimitar. The hilt was the head of a Yaksha with copper bell-like eyes, a high nose, and a wide mouth.
If the Demonic Eye Heavenly King was here, he would recognize that this blade was from the Battle of Zhuolu. He would discover that, in the legend, Shura's blade was Chi You's Blade.
The young Enchantment Demons had all heard that Shura was unmatched in the world with one blade, whether it was Order or the Evil camp. No demigod could fight him one-on-one.
But no one knew what Shura's blade looked like. This blade had been sleeping with Shura in the Holy Mountain for decades and had never appeared in the world. Whether it was the second entry into Kyoto or this demigod instance, Shura had not used it.
Now, after decades of being sealed, Chi You's Blade was born, and the first person it pierced was Ling Tuo.
Ling Tuo roared in pain. His expression was both ferocious and twisted. It seemed that some kind of poison had been extracted from the blade, making it difficult for even this demigod to withstand the corresponding pain.
The moment the blade pierced his heart, his body could no longer move. His internal organs seemed to be adsorbed by the magic blade. His essence, blood, and spiritual power were like a flood that had burst its banks, surging outwards.
This was one of Chi You's Blade's functions.
"You asked me why I haven't used this blade all this time." Shura, whose skin was dark and as tall as an iron tower, held the blade and said lightly behind Ling Tuo: "Now I'll answer you. Because it's for killing you. I deliberately starved it for twenty years. The more hungry it is, the more crazy it is. Only in this way can it kill you with one blow."
Ling Tuo struggled to twist his neck and looked behind him. Blood seeped from his seven orifices, making him look terrifying. He said word by word: "Wh, why?"
Shura's expression did not change, and he said lightly: "The true Lord of the Sun I supported was your father."
