Jiang Wannian has left, but the shadow he left lingers in the hearts of Zhou Gucheng and the others.
Betrayal by the closest ones in such a perilous environnt is unimaginable.
No matter the reason or motive, Zhou Gucheng feels this is simply unacceptable.
In the current dangerous environnt, no one cares about life or death anymore. Since life and death are disregarded, how can anything else matter? Given this, why would close people betray and stab you in the back at a critical mont?
Zhou Gucheng cannot understand.
Zhou Zheng, Xiong Ba, and Gongcheng Qingwan equally cannot comprehend.
But Zhou Yan can truly understand, because in today’s world, death is, ironically, the luckiest event — the longer you live, the more you see your relatives and friends dying, thereby experiencing intensified pain and tornt.
Moreover, growing up in a harsh environnt inevitably fills one’s mindset with slaughter and distortion, leaving hidden dangers for oneself.
"Gucheng, Xiong Ba, for this assembly we have today, it might be the last. Henceforth, as long as I have the ability, I will always keep you by my side. Of course, as ti passes further, I fear we’ll encounter more old acquaintances, and my team will grow stronger. By then, no matter what happens, I hope you all can remain calm."
Zhou Yan said earnestly.
His voice was calm, already detached from the joys and sorrows of the past, becoming sowhat transcendent.
This tone made Xiong Ba and Zhou Gucheng involuntarily tense up, instantly realizing that Zhou Yan’s ntal state had beco extrely strong.
This ntal state is one they can’t even touch upon.
What kind of journey must it be to grow to this state?
It must be a journey through endless hardships and difficulties.
Zhou Gucheng, Xiong Ba, and even Zhou Zheng and Qing Wan can clearly understand this point.
Those who can beco the Summoned and step onto the Netherworld Heavenly Road, entering Domain World to compete, are already no longer weak or foolish.
"Saint Master, we swear to follow you to the death!"
Xiong Ba and Zhou Gucheng imdiately bowed down and proclaid.
The words were forceful, and their gaze was incredibly firm.
Following Zhou Gucheng and Xiong Ba, Zhou Zheng and Gongcheng Qingwan also expressed their willingness to follow Zhou Yan, life or death.
Seeing the four’s resolute attitude, Zhou Yan felt very gratified.
As the four conversed, the Power of Destruction once again surged and scattered, as the Giant Bone Sky Demon disappeared where Zhou Yan stood, the other Giant Bone Sky Demons charged towards this area.
This world has never held a place of peace; after brief tranquility, what welcos them is even greater and violent danger.
Where there are Giant Bone Sky Demons, there is slaughter. When a Giant Bone Sky Demon dies, the power of the Summoned becos evident, making such places the most attractive to even stronger Giant Bone Sky Demons.
Zhou Yan slew the Giant Bone Sky Demon, and if he does not leave in a short ti, he may face even stronger Giant Bone Sky Demons.
Indeed, right now, a large number of Giant Bone Sky Demons have noticed where Zhou Yan is, all charging towards this location.
After helping Xiong Ba recover from his injuries, the five of them continued forward, but they all remained highly vigilant of the changes in the Giant Bone Sky Demons.
In this world, Giant Bone Sky Demons were frequently slain, and new ones continuously erge, their ergence exceptionally strange and unfathomable.
Zhou Yan carefully avoided several perilous impacts and, without dangers, arrived at an area shrouded in darkness.
The atmosphere here is no longer as violent, but so chilling it’s terrifying.
Dark red winds ravage the darkened land, and the atmosphere of an apocalyptic catastrophe looms in all directions.
Giant Bone Sky Demons and many Summoned were closing in through fierce killing, and the intense battles made the chilling atmosphere of this land even heavier.
Suddenly, the silent dark land beca turbulent, and the dark red wind intensified to the extre, instantly manifesting into sothing akin to a Blood River, erupting into violent Blood Qi.
Furthermore, after just a few breaths, this raging red storm continuously converged, quickly forming an overwhelming Blood Sea, boiling with savage, terrifying, suffocating, and bizarre scenes.
In this scene, whether it is the Summoned or the Giant Bone Sky Demons, all lost their Spiritual Wisdom — except for Zhou Yan.
As the Blood Sea’s aura enveloped all directions, Zhou Yan imdiately wielded the power of the Soul Sea to shield Xiong Ba and Zhou Gucheng and the others beside him.
Despite Zhou Yan’s rapid use of this Guardian Soul Power, the Blood Sea’s aura swiftly enveloped Xiong Ba and the others, directly penetrating Zhou Yan’s Soul Sea Power.
"Ah—"
Suddenly, an angry roar sounded from the front, followed by a Summoned whose body sprouted blood-red hair, eyes bloodshot, and body violently swollen like a blood balloon.
This swelling reached an extre in the shortest ti possible.
"Boom—"
A deep explosion sounded, and the body of the yellow-clad Summoned, who had transford into a gigantic blood sphere giant, exploded directly, turning into endless blood and flesh sli splattering in all directions.
Zhou Yan’s heart sank sharply, nearly instantly unleashing endless Nirvana Purple Fla, using the Purple Fla Power to resist the vicious blood spray.
Sure enough, the Purple Fla destroyed the impacting blood spray, but when it splattered onto the other Summoned ones, they were struck as if by lightning, and in that frozen instant, their bodies erupted in blood-colored long hair, growing like mad, their bodies swelling violently.
"No—"
A Summoned one roared angrily, panicked, exhibiting world-shattering power in a vain attempt to resist. However, at the mont of energy operation, this expansion was like pouring oil on fire, instantly swelling, followed by a thunderous and violent explosion.
This was simply a calamity of destruction.
The endless Summoned ones quickly disappeared in the face of this explosive contagious Blood Qi.
Around Zhou Yan, besides himself, Xiong Ba and Zhou Gucheng also lost their will, their eyes seemingly ignited with extrely eerie blood flas, shining brightly.
Their auras gradually grew violently restless, as if they would erupt within a short ti.
Once they erupted, there would be no saving them.
Zhou Yan’s heart sank to the bottom; this was a dead end, a precarious situation almost beyond resistance.
Zhou Yan gathered the fla to dissipate the violent blood mist impact, while at the sa ti unleashing endless Combat Power at extre speed, presenting the most ultimate strength, and then using the True Void Heavenly Prohibition to fiercely impact the Soul Sea of Zhou Gucheng and the other three.
"Hum—"
The powerful impact left the four nearly defenseless, imdiately fainting.
At the sa ti, Zhou Yan activated the Purple Fla, surrounding the four, and simultaneously wielded Soul Sea Power, enveloping them and carrying them alongside.
Then, Zhou Yan used Space Power, his figure like electrical light and fire waves, instantaneously fleeing forward.
Along the way, Zhou Yan saw many Summoned and Giant Bone Sky Demons transforming into blood spheres, constantly exploding to death, a situation so tragic it caused shudders.
Zhou Yan said nothing, forging ahead madly, no longer focusing on any changes within this enormous Blood Sea.
The endless Blood Sea had no end; Zhou Yan’s speed reached its peak. Even sensing strongly, he could sense the safest direction, but all the way forward, Zhou Yan had yet to escape this terrifying Blood Sea.
However, the farther he went, the fewer the violent Summoned and Giant Bone Sky Demons, and the entire Blood Sea grew increasingly quiet.
But this silence exerted imnse pressure, especially the deadly atmosphere and the chilling blood wind, evoking intense unease.
Carrying Xiong Ba and the four others, Zhou Yan trekked nearly three hours, the Blood Sea remaining peaceful, and the number of Summoned ones had started thinning, occasionally appearing only sparsely.
In such a Blood Sea, emotional changes were taboo, so Zhou Yan did not attempt to sense the appearances, identities, or aura of these Summoned ones but rather ignored any changes, swiftly moving forward.
Finally, after another two hours of advancing, Zhou Yan sensed the appearance of a distinctive light mark ahead.
With the ergence of this unique green light mark, distant unique rebukes and the sounds of combat echoed.
Zhou Yan’s speed once again increased a few notches, soon nearing the place of the fighting sounds.
Here, the first sight Zhou Yan caught was a group of over a hundred Summoned ones, who seed very chaotic; each person’s expression was extrely solemn.
As Zhou Yan flew in, he imdiately attracted many Summoned ones’ gazes, but hardly any of them lingered on Zhou Yan even for a breath’s ti; rely a glance, then they imdiately concentrated and held their breath again.
"Zhou Yan, beware of the mutated attack of Blood Evil Power!"
Suddenly, a clear voice warned Zhou Yan.
This was a very familiar voice, and it belonged to a woman.
Hearing this voice, Zhou Yan imdiately thought of an old acquaintance—Qian Xi, who was once Qian Yao’s disciple.
Zhou Yan never expected to encounter this woman here.
But before Zhou Yan could respond, a piercingly violent destruction crisis arose throughout his body.
At that mont, Zhou Yan felt as if his heart was being oppressed to suffocation, his brow’s Soul Sea uncontrollably turbulent.
Yet Zhou Yan had already comprehended the Power of Void Cutting, thus nearly instantaneously, he activated the Immortality Principle of Cutting Space, transforming himself into the Power of Void Cutting, slicing a piece of Void out, temporarily vanishing along with Xiong Ba and the four others.
"Hiss—"
A surge of unknown Blood Light broke out, terrifying power disintegrating this small range of Void, forming a dark whirlpool of destruction.
The whirlpool spun with mysterious and frightening energy, then all the Power of Destruction slowly cald, and the Void returned to normal.
