Eternal Immortal Clan: It All Started When I Married My Junior Sister!

135: The secrets of the prison are unpredictable, whether it’s good or evil!The Sect Master of the Hegemon Blade Sect’s burly figure froze in place.

His tiger-like eyes stared fixedly at the sky.

His lips trembled uncontrollably.

Liu Ruyan’s beautiful face was now filled with deep shock!

Murong Zhuyun was even more dazed.

She gazed at the figure standing amidst the Imperial Dragon Qi, resembling an Emperor descending to the Mortal Realm.

Her heart once again burned with fervor.

After a brief silence.

”Alliance Leader is mighty!!!”

”Alliance Leader is mighty!!!”

”Alliance Leader is mighty!!!”

”Alliance Leader is mighty!!!”

Cheers like a mountain tsunami erupted!

The sound, a confluence of hundreds of thousands of Cultivators’ fanaticism and worship, shot straight into the sky.

It actually forcefully dispersed more than half of the churning Devilish Qi in the sky!

The blood in all Righteous Path Cultivators’ hearts surged once more!

This was their Alliance Leader!

With such a leader, why worry about the Demonic Path not being annihilated!

However, above the sky, Chen Xu seemed deaf to the cheers below.

His eyes remained calm.

He never showed an ounce of mercy to his enemies.

Without the slightest pause, the moment Lu Cun Demon Lord flew backward.

His figure vanished from its original spot again!

The next moment, like a ghost, he reappeared behind Lu Cun Demon Lord.

Lu Cun Demon Lord’s face still bore traces of terror and unwillingness.

She hadn’t even reacted from the pain of her Dao Foundation collapsing.

When she felt a cold killing intent envelop the back of her neck.

She turned her head with difficulty, only to see a blue sword light growing larger and larger in her pupils.

Pfft~!

The myriad ages azure cloud sword in Chen Xu’s hand swept past without any flourish.

A beautiful head, trailing a string of crimson blood beads, shot into the sky!

Those captivating Phoenix eyes remained wide open.

The headless, delicate body fell weakly from the sky.

And at the very moment Lu Cun Demon Lord was slain!

From Chen Xu’s left hand, the immortal slaying sword tip, radiating endless malevolence, flew out!

On the other side, the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master had just awakened from the shock of Chen Xu’s single move severely injuring Lu Cun Demon Lord.

He watched with his own eyes as his companion was beheaded with a single sword.

His scalp instantly tingled.

This damned Chen Xu, his strength was actually so terrifyingly exaggerated?

Without thinking, he was about to burn his Nascent Soul.

And turn to flee back to the Endless Nether Devil Abyss!

But the moment that thought arose.

A speck of purplish-gray light instantly appeared before his glabella.

Pfft!

A soft sound.

That speck of purplish-gray light passed through his glabella.

And exited from the back of his head.

All of the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master’s movements instantly froze.

An expression of extreme horror on his old face.

Completely solidified.

The next second, his burning Nascent Soul, his violent Corpse Qi, along with his Devilish body cultivated for a thousand years, were all instantly obliterated under that supreme immortal slaying killing Qi.

The eighteen Golden Armored Corpse Kings that had surrounded Chen Xu, the moment they lost their master.

The golden soul flames in their eye sockets suddenly flickered.

Then, under the majestic Imperial Dragon Qi, they were directly shattered and vanished without a trace.

Two great Demonic Lords!

Within mere dozens of breaths, all were slain!

The entire battlefield once again fell into an eerie silence.

All Demonic Path Cultivators were like ducks whose necks had been squeezed, their expressions solidified into despair... Dead... Dead?

Lu Cun Demon Lord and the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master, who had dominated Central Continent for hundreds of years and struck fear into all Righteous Path Sects.

Just died like that?

Within mere dozens of breaths, they were killed on the spot by their young Alliance Leader.

Like slaughtering pigs and dogs!

This impact was too immense!

High in the sky, Wu Qu Demon Lord and Wen Qu Demon Lord, who were entangled in battle with Murong Zhuyun and the others, were struck as if by lightning, their bodies trembling violently!

The ferocity and madness on their faces instantly faded?

How... how could this be?

How could it be so fast?

One must know, those two, like them, were both half-step Soul Transformation Realm Cultivators.

”Go!”

But clearly, now was not the time to think about such things.

Wu Qu Demon Lord gritted his teeth.

There was no Battle Intent in his heart at all.

Without thinking, he spat out a mouthful of vital blood, and his entire being transformed into a streak of light.

Fleeing madly into the distance!

Wen Qu Demon Lord on the other side did the same; he crushed a life-saving jade talisman, and his body instantly became ethereal, clearly preparing to teleport away.

They were scared!

They were truly scared!

This Chen Xu was simply a monster.

Even the sure-kill trap set by two companions working together was broken by him with a flick of his finger.

He even counter-killed all of them!

If they didn’t run now, they would be the ones to die!

The two Demonic Lords’ escape directly became the last straw that broke the camel’s back.

The Demonic Path army below, which had originally been fearless of death, instantly collapsed!

”The Demonic Lords ran away!”

”It’s over! We’re finished!”

Seeing this, the female Cultivators of the Joyous Union Sect shrieked.

The seductive charm on their faces also vanished completely.

All of them turned pale with fright!

Some threw down their Magic Treasures and knelt on the ground, begging for mercy.

Others transformed into streaks of light.

Fleeing desperately in all directions.

The defeat was like a collapsing mountain!

However, how could Chen Xu give them a chance to escape?

He looked at the two streaks of blood-colored and ethereal light fleeing for their lives, and sneered.

”In front of this Lord, can you escape?”

As his voice fell, his mind stirred slightly.

Whoosh!

The immortal slaying sword tip that had just pierced through the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master’s glabella.

Vanished again!

The next moment, it split into two, transforming into two purplish-gray streaks of light, directly chasing after the two fleeing Demonic Lords.

That speed was so fast it was completely impossible to capture with the naked eye!

Even Divine Sense failed.

Wu Qu Demon Lord, who was burning his vital blood and fleeing madly, only felt a chill on the back of his neck.

He turned his head in horror, and in his pupils, he only had time to reflect a faint purplish-gray speck of light.

Pfft~!

A soft sound.

His head, along with his terrified expression.

Instantly exploded into a mist of blood.

His burning Nascent Soul, his violent Devilish Qi, all under that supreme immortal slaying killing Qi.

Were completely obliterated!

On the other side, Wen Qu Demon Lord, who was about to escape into the Void Realm, his body had just turned transparent.

That speck of purplish-gray light directly pierced through space.

Entering from his back and exiting from his glabella.

His action of escaping into the Void Realm came to an abrupt halt.

His body solidified from its ethereal state, and the expression on his face... was forever frozen.

The next second, his body disintegrated inch by inch like a sand sculpture.

Completely vanished!

Thus!

The Four Demonic Sects: Blood Fiend Sect, Myriad Poisons Sect, Heavenly Corpse Cult, and Joyous Union Sect, were all annihilated!

The seven kill demon star, who had plagued the world and served as the highest combat power of the Demonic Path.

All were executed!

The Demonic Path forces, which had been entrenched in the Cultivation World for tens of thousands of years, like maggots clinging to bone.

Were completely eradicated today!

The entire battlefield once again fell into a deathly silence.

Everyone stared blankly at this scene, their minds blank.

Tens of thousands of years of sworn enemies, just like that... gone?

”Won... won?”

After a long while, a Cultivator murmured.

This murmur instantly stirred up a thousand waves!

”We won! We won!”

”The Demonic Path has been destroyed!!”

After the silence, earth-shattering cheers erupted!

”Alliance Leader is mighty!!!”

”Alliance Leader is mighty!!!”

”Alliance Leader is mighty!!!”

Hundreds of thousands of Righteous Path Cultivators went completely insane at this moment!

They threw away the Magic Treasures in their hands and excitedly embraced their companions.

Crying tears of joy!

The several legion commanders looked at each other, the joy in their eyes.

Completely overflowing.

It’s done! It’s really done! The Demonic Path has been eradicated.

However.

Just as the earth-shattering cheers continued to rise.

Rumble—!

A deep rumbling sound suddenly came from beneath everyone’s feet!

The entire Endless Nether Devil Abyss began to tremble violently!

The ground beneath their feet undulated like waves, and countless bottomless, colossal cracks spread madly in all directions from the edge of the abyss!

”What’s happening?!”

”Is it an earthquake?!”

”No! This aura... the Endless Nether Devil Abyss is collapsing!”

The earth-shattering cheers came to an abrupt halt.

The ecstatic expressions on everyone’s faces instantly froze.

However, before they could react.

They felt a wave of evil Devilish Qi that made their hearts pound, sweeping out from the depths of the Endless Nether Devil Abyss!

Everyone sensed that something was wrong!

High above, Chen Xu’s brows furrowed tightly.

A hint of solemnity flashed in his eyes.

His pale golden eyes were now even more solemn.

His Divine Sense rapidly spread out.

Pouring into the depths of the collapsing Endless Nether Devil Abyss below.

There, he saw an incredibly colossal blood-colored altar!

Upon that altar were embedded millions of blood-colored beads, each bead representing an innocent life sacrificed!

At this moment, these beads were simultaneously lighting up.

Forming a terrifying spiritual powerImpact.

And the target of this spiritual power was not them.

But the deeper darkness behind the altar!

Lu Cun Demon Lord’s dying words echoed in his mind.

The awakening ritual of the god... has begun!

Boom! Crack—!

The collapse of the Endless Nether Devil Abyss was intensifying!

The bottomless dark vortex was completely torn apart by the violent spiritual power!

The scene at the bottom of the abyss was directly exposed to everyone’s eyes!

That was not land!

But a door!

A terrifying giant door, ten thousand zhang tall, its surface carved with countless wailing gods and demons.

And struggling vengeful spirits!

That blood-colored altar was built before the giant door!

At this moment, under the frantic impact of the altar’s power.

The Seals and Formations on the surface of the giant door.

Were shattering inch by inch!

Crack—!

The moment the last Seal and Formation on the door completely shattered.

The entire giant door let out a deafening roar.

A pitch-black crack, from the very center of the door, slowly split open!

An indescribably evil aura.

Quietly leaked out from that door crack!

The moment that aura leaked out.

Pfft!

”Ah!”

On the battlefield, many Cultivators below the Golden Core Stage could only let out a tragic cry.

Then their Divine Souls were instantly shattered by that aura, and blood flowed from their seven orifices.

Falling from the sky like dumplings!

Even those Nascent Soul Ancestors, including Murong Zhuyun and the Sect Master of the Hegemon Blade Sect, all felt their Nascent Souls being fiercely suppressed.

Visibly, everyone’s faces turned deathly pale, and those with weaker cultivation even spat out fresh blood on the spot.

Falling from the sky, unconscious!

Just a wisp of aura!

Instantly caused this invincible Alliance army of hundreds of thousands.

To lose five-tenths of its combat strength!

Only Chen Xu remained proudly standing!

The human emperor seal on his glabella shot out dazzling golden light, and the majestic Imperial Dragon Qi protected his entire body.

Resisting the erosion of that terrifying aura!

His Primordial Chaos Nascent Soul within him was not affected in the slightest.

Instead, it exuded a Battle Intent, eager to try its strength!

The crack in the door grew wider and wider!

Finally!

Boom—!!!

The entire giant door, ten thousand zhang tall, exploded with a crash, turning into dust that scattered across the sky!

Behind the door was a completely dark starry sky!

A towering, unimaginably mighty demonic god remnant shadow slowly emerged from that darkness.

The remnant shadow had no physical form; it was merely composed of endless Devilish Qi.

But just looking at him made people feel a terrifying urge for their Dao Heart to collapse, to kneel in submission, and to fall into the Demonic Path!

For a moment, the Cultivators who had not yet had their Divine Soul shattered or fainted felt that they were truly finished.

In front of such an existence?

How could they possibly have any chance of survival?

It was just a pity... their predictions were wrong.

After the terrifying ancient demon awakened, he did not start a massacre.

Instead, his pair of demonic eyes slowly swept across the entire scene.

His gaze passed over the Alliance Cultivators struggling in pain on the ground like ants, without the slightest pause, as if looking at a pile of dust.

Finally, his gaze fell upon the only golden light on the battlefield.

Which was on Chen Xu, the only one who could meet his gaze.

He did not speak!

But the next second.

A Divine Sense, as if having experienced myriad ages, resounded thunderously in Chen Xu’s mind.

”Finally, a descendant of the Jailer has come here?”

”Jailer?”

Chen Xu’s brows furrowed tightly at this moment.

These two words, conveyed through the vast Divine Sense, appeared in his mind.

He could feel that this towering demonic god remnant shadow... seemed to hold no hostility towards him.

The pair of demonic eyes, when looking at him, revealed not killing intent.

Not anger.

But... sorrow?

What was going on?

Chen Xu’s thoughts raced, and the human emperor seal on his glabella shone even brighter, protecting him firmly.

He was on high alert.

He didn’t believe that an ancient demon who had just awakened would be benevolent towards him, the one who had killed all of its followers.

Just then.

”Alas...”

A long sigh echoed in Chen Xu’s heart.

This sigh was filled with helplessness and desolation, like a prisoner confined for hundreds of millions of years who finally saw the first person he could talk to.

Immediately after, that Divine Sense came again.

This time, it carried undisguised mockery.

”Pitiful descendant, do you think you are slaying demons and devils, protecting this world?”

”Wrong.”

”Completely wrong.”

”Hmm?”

Chen Xu’s heart trembled slightly!

Everything he had done was wrong?

He had integrated Central Continent, pacified the Demonic Path, protected the Human Race, and fought bloody battles until now.

What he received in return was such a comment?

An unnamable fire... rose from the bottom of his heart.

Bullshit!

But before he could open his mouth to question, the demonic god remnant shadow spoke again.

”This world is not some blessed land, nor is it some independent Small World!”

”This place is a cage!”

”A huge cage called the Land of Exile!”

”And you so-called native beings, from the moment of your birth, have been branded with an indelible mark! You are not the masters of this world; you are merely...”

”Jailers!”

”You are merely the descendants left behind by those powerful existences who suppressed us here, to guard us!”

Cage!

Jailer!

These two words made Chen Xu freeze again.

Before he could think of anything else to say.

He instantly remembered many things.

The incomplete Laws of Heaven and Earth in this world!

That path to Soul Transformation that had been cut off for ten thousand years, driving countless Prodigies to despair!

And why these Demonic Path Sects were doing everything at all costs.

Frantically searching for and refining so-called ”sacrifices”!

Jiang Bai’s resentful words before his death, ”We are all just sacrifices,” still echoed in his ears!

Could it be... a thought that made his heart palpitate wildly emerged from the depths of his heart.

Could these so-called ”demons,” these Demonic Path Cultivators he had personally slain, from beginning to end, be just like him?

Pitiful wretches who wanted to escape from this cage?

As if seeing through Chen Xu’s thoughts, the voice of the demonic god remnant shadow carried a deep sense of desolation.

”Those little ones you killed, they massacred living beings, sacrificed Mortals with blood, and created sacrifices, not for destruction, nor for the enjoyment of slaughter.”

”They just wanted to accumulate enough power to impact the barrier of this cage, to seek that faint glimmer of hope!”

”They want to live, to see higher, to go further. Is this... wrong?”

”In the eyes of us prisoners, who are eternally confined, you Jailers who maintain the cage and prevent us from leaving...”

”Are the true demons!”

These words silenced Chen Xu.

Although he didn’t know why this so-called demonic god would tell him these things.

But he had to admit.

At this moment, the boundary between good and evil, right and wrong, in his heart.

Had become somewhat blurred.

He looked down.

In the eyes of them, the Righteous Path Cultivators, he was the savior.

The guardian of the Righteous Path.

But in the eyes of this ancient demon, he had become the villain who maintained the cage.

Who was right?

Who was wrong?

Chen Xu’s heart was in turmoil.

The towering demonic god remnant shadow seemed not to want to give Chen Xu too much time to think; his voice suddenly became impassioned:

”The cage of this world is the shackles of all of us! It limits our Realm, and as time passes, it will tighten more and more, cutting off everyone’s path forward!”

”You are very strong, stronger than any descendant this Venerable has ever seen!”

”You even possess power that does not belong to this cage! But how far can you go? Late Nascent Soul Stage? Great Perfection Nascent Soul Stage?”

”It’s useless!”

”Because the cage is getting tighter and tighter. Before, one could step into Soul Transformation and Purple Mansion, but now there is no way to step into them anymore!”

”As long as the cage is not broken, you will never be able to take that last step in your entire life, and you will never be able to glimpse the true Soul Transformation Realm!”

”If you want to truly transcend and see a broader world, the only way is to break it, like us! Shatter this cage!”

The voice of the demonic god remnant shadow carried infinite power of bewitchment.

Piercing straight into Chen Xu’s heart!

Yes!

Soul Transformation!

This was a knife hanging over the heads of all Cultivators!

He himself was the same; if not for the System’s help and his Primordial Chaos Nascent Soul, his Cultivation speed.

Would never have been so fast.

But even so, he felt that invisible barrier.

He could feel that Great Perfection Nascent Soul Stage... seemed to be the limit of this world now.

The path after that was broken!

Chen Xu fell silent.

Should he believe the words of this demonic god?

If all of this was true... then how should he walk his future path?

Should he continue to be this ”Jailer,” guarding this incomplete world, guarding those Mortals as fragile as ants?

And then, in this world, slowly die of old age as his Lifespan ran out?

Or should he align himself with these so-called ”prisoners,” break this cage together, and face the unknown, dangerous ”outside world”?

The first choice was stable, but it also meant despair.

The second choice was full of hope, but it also meant betraying his long-held stance.

Even... becoming an enemy of the entire world!

Just as Chen Xu’s mind was in a mess.

The demonic god remnant shadow seemed to have exhausted its last bit of power.

His towering body began to become illusory, like a candle in the wind.

Ready to extinguish at any moment.

His voice also became faint.

”The only way to break it is to welcome a true catastrophe from beyond the Realm, to let the terrifying power from the outside world descend and wash away this fragile cage!”

”Take care of yourself, descendant of the Jailer...”

Before he finished speaking, that mighty demonic god remnant shadow.

Could no longer maintain its form.

It transformed into countless black specks of light, like dancing fireflies.

Completely dissipating into that dark starry sky.

The torn giant door also lost the support of its power, collapsing with a crash, turning into dust, and disappearing.

The entire Endless Nether Devil Abyss, after experiencing a violent collapse.

Finally returned to dead silence.

Only Chen Xu remained, suspended high in the sky, surrounded by golden light.

At this moment, beneath his feet were the scarred earth and those struggling in pain on the ground.

The Alliance Cultivators who had survived the calamity.

But no one knew that in Chen Xu’s heart at this moment, a storm was raging.

The world is a cage.

He is a Jailer.

Is this... the truth?

Chen Xu slowly closed his eyes, suppressing all emotions deep within his heart.

When he opened them again, his pale golden eyes.

Had returned to their usual calm.

No matter what the truth of this world was.

No matter what he had to face in the future.

He only knew that, for now, he was still the Alliance Leader of the Righteous Path Alliance.

He still had hundreds of thousands of soldiers waiting for him.

”Sir!”

Just then, a graceful figure, breaking through the lingering evil Qi.

Came to his side.

It was Murong Zhuyun.

Her face was very pale, and a trace of blood hung from the corner of her mouth.

Clearly, she had suffered no light injuries from the impact of that aura just now.

But in her eyes... there was no concern for her own injuries, only deep concern for Chen Xu.

”Sir, are you alright? What... what was that thing just now?”

Chen Xu looked at her anxious expression, and a warm current flowed through his heart.

He shook his head, his voice returning to its usual calm.

”It’s nothing, just a remnant Soul that has been dead for countless years; it has completely dissipated.”

He said it lightly, as if the world-subversioning conversation just now.

Had never happened.

Hearing Chen Xu’s words, Murong Zhuyun finally breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as Sir was fine, that was more important than anything else.

Chen Xu’s gaze swept over the heavily casualties Alliance army below, his brows slightly furrowed.

”Issue the order: count the injured, clear the battlefield, and rest on the spot.”

”Yes!”

Murong Zhuyun immediately took the order, turned into a streak of light, and began to relay the command.
