————————

… Deep within the Evil Demon Forest, in the core underground.

In a distorted space constructed purely of mental force, a massive will slowly awakened. The Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord—the Evil Emperor—received a faint yet urgent distress signal from the Sun Moon Imperial City.

“Fatal crisis?” A mental force fluctuation, mixed with confusion and impatience, echoed within the space.

Throughout its long Life, the so-called “cooperation” with the Sun Moon Imperial Family was more like unilateral control, and a “fatal crisis” had never truly occurred.

Based on its monitoring of the Spirit Master forces on the Sun Moon Continent, besides that ninety-eighth rank Old freak in the Imperial Family, the entire Continent only had four Titled Douluo below rank ninety-five. How could this level of power possibly threaten the foundation of the Imperial Family?

It instinctively did not want to bother. The change of human regimes made no essential difference to it; at worst, it would spend some more time supporting a Puppet.

However, upon second thought, if the current Imperial Family were truly uprooted, the stable channel it had used for years to collect resources and absorb Soul power through the Imperial Family would be interrupted. Re-establishing, infiltrating, and controlling a new force would ultimately be troublesome and waste its precious Cultivate time.

“Fine.” A cold mental force command was issued, “Go investigate thoroughly, resolve the trouble, and bring back the provocateur’s Soul.”

It did not move personally. In its view, this was likely the Imperial Family making a fuss over nothing, or encountering some short-sighted overseas exiles. Sending out one of the strong members of its Clan was enough.

On the outskirts of the Evil Demon Forest, a massive figure shot up into the sky.

This was a hundred-thousand-year Evil Eye Tyrant. Its huge eye flickered with dark purple light, and the powerful mental force coercion twisted the surrounding air.

Among the Evil Eye Tyrant Clan, a hundred-thousand-year Cultivation was enough to look down on most Spirit Beasts, and its terrifying mental force could easily crush the consciousness of Spirit Masters of the same rank.

In the Evil Emperor’s view, such power was enough to sweep away any known “trouble” on the Sun Moon Continent.

After all, any potential threat to it had been personally extinguished by it in the budding stage.

Over countless years, every human Genius who dared step into the depths of the Evil Demon Forest looking for a ninth spirit ring had, without exception, become nourishment for the forest… Above the Sun Moon Imperial City.

The hundred-thousand-year Evil Eye Tyrant arrived at an astonishing speed.

Its massive single eye instantly locked onto Xuan Ming floating in the air.

The opponent had not released a spirit ring, and its aura was restrained, but the pure and majestic Dragon Clan coercion was impossible to hide.

The Sun Moon Continent had no Dragon Clan Spirit Beasts! Was this a Dragon Clan member from overseas?

“Outsider!” The hundred-thousand-year Evil Eye Tyrant emitted a sharp mental force fluctuation, carrying condescending arrogance, “This is the territory governed by His Majesty the Evil Emperor! Immediately cease your provocative actions, surrender, and come with me to see His Majesty, otherwise…”

However, it had not finished speaking.

Xuan Ming did not even turn back, merely glancing casually in its direction, just as he had glanced at the State Preceptor earlier.

There was no earth-shattering spirit power collision, only that familiar, extreme coldness, seemingly capable of freezing the Soul, instantly descended!

The massive mental force of the hundred-thousand-year Evil Eye Tyrant failed to form an effective defense. Just as a trace of unbelievable shock flashed in its enormous eye, the next moment, it followed in the footsteps of the State Preceptor—it, along with the space around it, was instantly sealed within an even larger, more intensely cold iceberg!

The dark purple light was solidified within the ice layer, appearing strange and silent.

Xuan Ming looked at this new “ice sculpture,” deep in thought.

“A hundred-thousand-year mental force Spirit Beast… that is rare. Taking it back for Nana should be just right.”

… The core of the Evil Demon Forest.

“Roar—!!!”

A terrifying mental force roar, truly containing monstrous rage and shock, suddenly erupted from deep underground, instantly sweeping across the entire Evil Demon Forest! Countless Spirit Beasts trembled under the roar, lying prostrate on the ground.

Through the mental force connection, the Evil Emperor clearly “saw” the scene of its capable subordinate being instantly frozen! That was not a battle; that was… an absolute crushing! It was utter contempt!

Dragon Clan! It was actually the Dragon Clan! And it dared to cripple one of its major generals so easily on its own territory!

This was no longer a simple provocation; this was a blatant trampling of the dignity of it, the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord.

In its fury, the Evil Emperor’s immensely massive true body finally moved! Its gigantic eye-shaped body, Binding countless tentacles, burst through the geological layers, sending up dust and rubble everywhere. An evil mental force storm, ten or even a hundred times more terrifying than that of the hundred-thousand-year Evil Eye Tyrant, erupted centered around it!

Its huge single eye locked fiercely onto the direction of the Imperial City, and it charged away with a speed that almost tore space, carrying a destructive fury.

On the edge of the forest, Di Tian and the Demon Empress simultaneously sensed the terrifying evil Qi surging into the sky.

“It’s out!” Di Tian’s Dragon eyes narrowed, and the Divine Might of the Dragon around him began to rise, preparing to follow the plan to flank it from the rear and cut off the Evil Emperor’s retreat.

“Wait.” The Demon Empress reached out and stopped him. A strange look appeared on her cold, beautiful face. “Don’t rush.”

Di Tian frowned and looked at her.

The Demon Empress gazed toward the still-calm black figure in the direction of the Imperial City and slowly said, “Beings at our level all have their own dignity. That Old freak, the Evil Emperor, is notoriously arrogant and violent. Since it came out in a rage with a clear target, if we intervene now, it will certainly feel insulted and might become reckless.”

She paused, a trace of inquiry and… faint anticipation flashing in her eyes: “Moreover, I also want to see with my own eyes exactly what level of strength this Lord, who could make my deceased husband willingly sacrifice himself and make even you, Di Tian, willingly follow him, has reached.”

Hearing this, a trace of worry flashed in Di Tian’s Dragon eyes, and he said in a deep voice, “I understand your thoughts. But that is exactly what I worry about! That Old freak, the Evil Emperor, has an extremely volatile temper and is vengeful! If it fights Xuan Ming to the death and finds itself outmatched, given its nature, it is highly likely to choose self-detonation to drag its opponent down with it!”

His tone became incredibly solemn: “The Evil Emperor’s mental force is extremely strange and unique, and the power of its self-detonation is absolutely incomparable to that of ordinary Vicious Beasts! That has already touched the edge of the Divine Rank! Even if Xuan Ming’s strength is formidable, if he is hit by such close-range mental force Origin self-detonation, it is highly possible… To be honest, even I couldn’t withstand it.”

The Demon Empress’s expression also changed slightly.

She had only thought about witnessing Xuan Ming’s strength but had overlooked the Evil Emperor’s insane nature. If that were true, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Just as the two hesitated, in the distant sky, the massive shadow representing the Evil Emperor’s true body, like a cloud of doomsday disaster, was already approaching the Sun Moon Imperial City, accompanied by a Soul-tearing shriek!

… The Evil Emperor’s mountain-like true body surged above the Sun Moon Imperial City, carrying monstrous evil Qi. Its huge single eye locked fiercely onto Xuan Ming, burning with purple flames of rage. It didn’t even waste time with superfluous words; for any existence that dared challenge its authority, there was only complete destruction!

“Buzz—!!!”

A terrifying mental force impact, formless and intangible, yet seemingly capable of tearing the Soul directly—a mental force Shockwave—instantly spread out from the Evil Emperor, like a ripple of destruction, enveloping Xuan Ming!

Space itself began to twist and blur under this pure mental force. Although the buildings in the Imperial City below had long activated their defensive spirit tool arrays specifically designed to counter mental force impact, under this invisible shockwave, many areas still looked as if they had been swept by a hurricane, with glass shattering everywhere. Spirit Masters with slightly lower Cultivation immediately bled from their orifices and passed out.

Facing this pure and ultimate mental force attack, even Xuan Ming showed a trace of solemnity in his ice-blue eyes. The Evil Emperor’s mental force Realm might not be as vast and stable as Di Tian’s, but purely in terms of the purity, destructiveness, and strangeness of its mental force attack, the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord, being the Peak of the mental force attribute, had power that even far surpassed Di Tian!

Xuan Ming’s original plan was to draw it out and then attempt “communication,” to see if it would “voluntarily” sacrifice itself, as saving effort was always good. But he hadn’t expected this Old freak to have such a fiery temper, immediately going for a killing blow.

Since that was the case, he couldn’t afford to be polite anymore.
