Ever since they parted, a thousand years had passed. Today was the first time Chen Xuanzong and Chu Lili met.
However, although her master was right in front of her, Chu Lili didn't feel anything, as if she was in a deep sleep.
Chen Xuanzong looked at his little disciple, and the image of her when she first became his disciple surfaced in his mind.
She was only four or five years old, and she was just an ignorant little girl.
She didn't know that she was the Water Devil's suitable physique. She didn't know that her father and master were the same. She didn't know that her father, Chu Heng, was killed by her master, Chen Xuanzong, after becoming the Water Devil's incarnation.
Gratitude and hatred intertwined, and this continued for her entire life.
"The cause of the past, the effect of today." Chen Xuanzong's expression remained calm, "I hope that everything can come to an end this time."
He closed his eyes, and the crack on his forehead gradually cracked open. Ice-blue devilish radiances surged out from within. They were vicious, lonely, and ominous.
As for Chu Lili, who was sitting opposite him, the crack on her forehead had split open again.
The ice-blue radiances released from their foreheads vaguely showed signs of intertwining and fusing together.
However, at that moment, Chen Xuanzong's hand seals suddenly changed.
At the same time, Yan Zhaoge, who was quietly standing by the side, did the same thing. He formed a hand seal and clasped it in front of his chest.
Within the metallic sphere, rays of radiance suddenly appeared within the pitch-black space.
In mid-air, eighty-one clumps of flames appeared at the same time. Following a unique formation, they surrounded Chen Xuanzong and Chu Lili.
From each of the eighty-one clumps of flames, a long tongue of fire extended out. Then, they converged at the center of the void and landed on Chen Xuanzong and Chu Lili's bodies.
As the flames appeared, the two's bodies trembled slightly, and the ice-blue radiances on their foreheads gradually dimmed.
Chen Xuanzong extended his finger again and tapped on both his and Chu Lili's foreheads.
Then, his two hands slowly moved towards the center.
Along with the movement of his fingers, the blue radiances within the devilish patterns on their foreheads became brighter. As if they were being guided by Chen Xuanzong's hands, they started surging out from their bodies and converging at the void where the blue radiances converged.
In mid-air, the ice-blue devilish radiances gradually converged and vaguely formed a fist-sized talisman seal.
The rune became clearer and clearer, and the demonic intent that seeped out from it became stronger and stronger.
On the other hand, Chen Xuanzong and Chu Lili's originally rampant Demonic Qi started weakening.
During the entire process, not a single trace of the Water Devil could be seen in the cracks on Chen Xuanzong's and the other's foreheads.
On the contrary, the talisman mark that was gradually taking shape was flashing with an increasingly dazzling blue light. Within the blue light, there seemed to be a pair of eyes slowly opening.
A terrifying, ice-cold, and desolate will emanated from it.
Still, Yan Zhaoge and the others had long since been prepared for this. Powerful light simultaneously emanated from the eighty-one clumps of flames, focusing on that talisman.
As the scarlet red light crisscrossed, it firmly locked onto the ice-blue rune and suppressed it.
The metal ball outside, which had been stable and motionless, suddenly began to spin.
As the metallic sphere rotated, the streams of light flowing in the Domain of Thousand Scales at the periphery also sped up.
The various methods that he had set up earlier were now being put to use.
There was only one goal.
To remove the devilish intent that entangled Chen Xuanzong and Chu Lili, and to suppress the Water Devil's path of rebirth, forcefully sever it, and block it back!
The ice-blue radiance on the talisman mark grew brighter, and the will that seeped out from within became even more ruthless and cold.
Within the radiance, there seemed to be an extremely powerful will that was constantly shaking the Domain of Thousand Scales.
However, under Yan Zhaoge, Chen Xuanzong, and the others' efforts, it was firmly suppressed!
After all, the Water Devil had already perished. Now that he was seeking for rebirth, he wasn't truly living in this world.
Being trapped within the Domain of Thousand Scales and this metallic sphere, the Water Devil, Chen Xuanzong, and Chu Lili were almost completely isolated from the other Evil Devils. It was difficult for them to communicate with each other.
Yan Zhaoge and the others' arrangements were to first trap the Water Devil in a helpless state, while simultaneously suppressing him.
At this moment, the Devil Sea's abyss, which was located at the center of the Nine Underworlds' depths, suddenly trembled.
"The Water Devil is in trouble. It's those people's doing."
"The clues were cut off just now. We can't find them anymore."
"We can roughly determine the area. As long as we send more people, we'll be able to find them."
"Time is limited."
"We can't help the Water Devil now, but we can help the Earth Devil. Let's do it."
The Nine Underworlds' Devilish Domain trembled. Previously, in order to not attract the attention of other forces, they didn't make a move. Suddenly, a storm came!
A large number of Evil Devils rushed out of the Nine Underworlds and stepped into the void's boundless outskirts, rushing towards the place where Chu Lili disappeared.
The group of Devils that were already hiding by the void's outskirts started moving.
To prevent Yan Zhaoge, Feng Yunsheng, and the others from noticing them, they didn't pursue too closely.
As a result, they lost track of Yan Zhaoge, Chu Lili, and the others.
However, they still managed to map out a rough spatial region, which included the Domain of Thousand Scales.
At the same time, within the Awakened Sky Cosmos, the Sky beyond Skies, and the Pill Hall on the Broad Creed Mountain's peak, which seemed to be unrelated to this place, a sudden change occurred.
Within the pill core's pill room, Shi Jun, who was calmly cultivating, suddenly let out a groan.
Without any warning, a vertical crack appeared on his forehead.
From the crack, yellowish-brown radiance shot out. It was heavy and desolate.
Beside him, within the ice coffin, devilish patterns also appeared on Ying Yuzhen's forehead. Yellowish-Brown radiance surged from within, which was similar to the devilish patterns on Shi Jun's forehead. However, it was even more calamitous and ruthless!
However, at practically the exact same time, dense talisman markings appeared on the ceiling, floor, and walls of the Core Pill Room they were in.
As the radiances intertwined, they fell onto Shi Jun and Ying Yuzhen's bodies like chains.
Runes also appeared on their foreheads. As they circulated, they continuously suppressed the devilish patterns and the yellowish-brown radiance within.
Xue Fei, who was guarding outside the pill core's pill room, saw the radiances flickering within the pill room. His heart jolted, "It's here!"
Amidst the commotion, a yellowish-brown pearl suddenly appeared within the pill room. It was the Earth Splitting Pearl.
The Earth Splitting Pearl transformed into a clump of radiance and fused with the pill room's entire structure.
Then, the runes on the pill room's walls turned yellowish-brown.
Under such suppression, the devilish intent surging from Shi Jun and his mother's bodies was further suppressed.
"With this, we should be able to delay them for a long time!" Xue Fei's gaze didn't even blink as he observed everything happening before his eyes.
A Great Devil had just been revived, and his strength wasn't the same. In fact, he might even be very weak and require time to recover.
Naturally, the Nine Underworlds hoped that the two Extinct Devils could return to the Nine Underworlds safely. Hence, the two Devils were revived at the same time, causing Yan Zhaoge and the others to lose sight of the other.
Yan Zhaoge made use of this to delay the Earth Devil's revival and lure the Water Devil into the Domain of Thousand Scales. He would first deal with the Water Devil before dealing with the Earth Devil's threat.
Yan Zhaoge and the others had grasped the timing and location in their hands.
The gap that they had been lagging behind for a long time was finally closed, and even surpassed!
