"I calculated that. I also know that you're collecting the Dark Beads in order to obtain the inheritance of the Sky Sealing Dark King …"
The black shadow's voice was warm and gentle, and it seemed to be smiling as it spoke.
Why did it seem to be "seemed"?
That was because An Lin could only see a humanoid black shadow, but he couldn't see the Night Monarch's exact appearance.
The eyes were quite beautiful. They were blue with a hint of black, as if they were gems embedded into the black body. Not only did they not give off a creepy or terrifying feeling, but they instead gave off a sense of harmony and allure.
Little Xie turned to the Night Monarch with an aggrieved expression.
An Lin had achieved his goal by obtaining the Dark Beads, but she had lost the juicy meat that was supposed to be in her grasp! And it was possibly the most delicious juicy meat in the entire Abyss of Evil!
An Lin pretended to be nonchalant as he looked down at the wretched Dong Yang on the ground. "Pardon me for asking, but what is the experimenter you speak of planning to do to it?"
Using a sinister devil as an experimental subject was most likely some kind of secret plan …
In An Lin's mind, he was already viewing the Night Monarchs as villains who were plotting something big in secret.
He wasn't expecting the Night Monarch's reply.
However, to his surprise, the Night Monarch replied in a straightforward manner, "The experiment I'm conducting involves a huge secret, so I can tell you … But first, do you know where the sinister devils in the Abyss of Evil come from?"
An Lin's brows furrowed slightly.
He didn't want to think too much about this.
However, the story of Ji Yanling and Wang Lu had been deeply engraved in his mind.
He was well aware of how Wang Lu had fallen to the sinister devils.
"Sinister devils used to be humans, right?" An Lin asked.
An expression of shock appeared on the Night Monarch's face. "You know about this?"
He had only wanted to keep the Night Monarch guessing, but An Lin had told him everything …
An Lin nodded indifferently. "I know a little …"
The Night Monarch asked in a faint voice, "Then do you know why humans became sinister devils?"
An Lin began to think carefully. Sinister devils hadn't been around for a very long time, so the major event that led to humans becoming sinister devils was most likely a recent event.
"Could it be … caused by the Purple Star incident?" An Lin made a bold guess.
The Night Monarch: "… How do you know about this?!"
Was he going to keep the Night Monarch in suspense?!
"A little," An Lin replied modestly.
His expression remained calm, but his heart surged with shock.
The fact that demons were related to Purple Star was definitely not a trivial matter. After all, Purple Star was a civilization that had poked a giant hole in the sky!
The Night Monarch didn't beat around the bush any longer. "The Purple Star was struck by a backlash from the Heavenly Dao, and its entire civilization was instantly destroyed. "However, the Disaster was not as simple as it seemed.
"Let's not talk about how the Heavenly Dao is difficult to mend, and the calamity has descended once again. The repercussions of the Heavenly Dao's backlash on the human race are not something that can be stopped just by killing all the Purple Star citizens. The Evil Demons are one of the scourges left behind. "
"To be, the Evil devil devils to be is Nine to be to be, to the Nine to be. to be to be. to be to be to Mons Tribe, Dong. to to be.
"They used a special method to attach themselves to the humans of the Kingdom of the Nine States and the Buddhist Kingdom. In the face of boundless negative emotions, no human could resist this power, and they were all transformed into sinister devils. One by one, one by a hundred, one by ten …
"This power was more terrifying than the plague and more vicious than curses. It was as if it was trying to transform the entire human race into sinister devils!"
The Night Monarch spoke in a cold voice as the darkness behind him surged violently.
An Lin was a little perplexed. "Why haven't I heard of this before?"
Events of this magnitude would generally be recorded, so there was no way that not many people would have heard of it.
The Night Monarch spoke in a slow voice, "You have no idea just how heavy a price we had to pay in order to save the human race. Over five billion humans were transformed into sinister devils …"
An Lin was completely dumbstruck upon hearing this number.
This was almost equivalent to the population of an entire state!
"Nuwa, the Three Pure Ones, Daolord Lu Ya, and the five God of Creation Stage gods joined forces with sixteen Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures to unleash a Great Sky-Stealing Teleportation Spell Formation to teleport all of the sinister devils to the Tai Chu Continent.
"As a safety precaution, we also unleashed a divine technique to erase all of the living beings' memories of the sinister devils. That's right, the best way to deal with the spread of resentment from the entire civilization was to forget! The more we forget, the smaller the repercussions of this calamity will be. "
An Lin finally came to a sudden realization upon hearing the Night Monarch's words.
No wonder he didn't know anything about sinister devils in the past. He didn't know what they were, nor did he know what they were. All he knew was that they were extremely terrifying demonic beings …
So everyone had been struck by the Great Amnesia Spell Formation!
A thought occurred to An Lin. "Seeing as the sinister devils have already been teleported to the outside world, then the sinister devils in the Abyss of Evil …"
The Night Monarch looked at An Lin. "Because I want to save them."
An Lin faltered upon hearing this, and he looked into the Night Monarch's eyes to discover the seriousness and determination in his eyes.
"Over five billion people … They're all innocent, but they've been forced to wander the outside world, tortured by boundless negative emotions for over ten thousand years without being able to transcend …
"I want them to become humans again! I worked hard for a long time before the Gods of Creation agreed to set up a base in the Abyss of Evil to research sinister devils.
"You should know that the sinister devils in the Abyss of Evil have never voluntarily escaped from the abyss to harm outsiders. They're all under my jurisdiction."
An Lin nodded. That was indeed the case.
He had initially thought that sinister devils were afraid of light, but high-level sinister devils were completely immune to sunlight.
"Look at sinister devil Dong Yang! He looks so much like a human!" The Night Monarch pointed at Dong Yang.
Dong Yang's entire body was riddled with wounds, and his eyes were glazed over as he murmured, "Feel despair … Feel terror … All of you will fall into despair …"
The Night Monarch: "…"
An Lin nodded. "Aside from the fact that he's a little incoherent, he's really no different from a human in every other aspect. Even if he's incoherent, that's only because he was beaten silly by me. "
The Night Monarch smiled. "As their cultivation base progresses, they'll become more and more like humans. They'll be able to cultivate, they'll be able to speak, and they'll have emotions and desires. They'll no longer be crazy, chaotic, and disorderly …
"Humans can become sinister devils, so sinister devils can also become humans! I've been working on this for the past ten thousand years, and through Dong Yang's example, I've already found many ways to alleviate boundless negative emotions. This isn't just limited to power, but rather, it's from the very core of human emotions! "
The Night Monarch squatted down and caressed Dong Yang's face as he spoke in a gentle voice, "Just one more step, just one more step …"
This was a beautiful scene.
An Lin couldn't help but let his imagination run wild.
"There's one more thing," he said.
"What is it?" The Night Monarch blinked.
An Lin pointed at himself. "This information is very important, right? Why are you telling me so much?"
