Chapter 1585: Seizing The Fruit

"Li Luo? How did he find this location?" When the Heavenly Dragon's head appeared, the Spirit Eye Underworld King and Qin Jiujie revealed looks of surprise as the two sides looked at each other. The corruption flowing through this region was so incredibly dense that even a King would be unable to discover them. How had Li Luo managed to find them? The Spirit Eye Underworld King's gaze turned gloomy as Li Luo's appearance had ruined their plans. Furthemore, he and Qin Jiujie had only sent clones here due to the Heavenly Emperor's Edict. Thus, in terms of strength, they were far inferior to Li Luo. The Life Fruit had not been harvested, and if they were stopped here, they would have failed their mission.

The Spirit Eye Underworld King and Qin Jiujie glanced at each other, then the two scattered their disguises and revealed their true forms.

The Spirit Eye Underworld King's eyes were abstruse as he looked at the Heavenly Dragon with indifference. "Li Luo, I never would have thought that you would deliver yourself back into my hands after I spared your life. In that case, perhaps it's time for this me to end your puny life."

"This brat is a disaster. We can't let him live!" Qin Jiujie immediately surged with killing intent, causing the void to tremble.

"Spirit Eye Underworld King? Qin Junjie?" A look of surprise flashed through Li Luo's eyes as he had not expected to find two of the Origin Reversion Institute's Kings in this place. He had truly acted too recklessly. It was time to run! Li Luo turned to flee without hesitation. Although he didn't know for sure if the two had a part to play when it came to the change in the Heavenly Emperor's Edict, it was always wiser to act cautiously before two Kings.

"Hmph! You wish to run?" Qin Jiujie snorted and took a step forward. Boundless amounts of murderous intent flowed out of him, causing the entire abyss to shake.

However, Li Luo seemed to be moving even faster!

When Qin Jiujie saw this, he was on the cusp of giving chase but was interrupted.

"Don't run after him. You have to watch out for the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li's Kings' ambush," the Spirit Eye Underworld King reminded him . In that brief moment of hesitation, Li Luo vanished into the distance.

It was then that the two Kings' billowing killing intent dispersed like the clouds. The two of them heaved sighs of relief. It was fortunate that the brat had been scared away.

"Let's retrieve the Life Fruit and leave. The Stygian Rain has dispersed, and I'm afraid the Kings from the Bloodlines of Heavenly Emperor Li and Qin will arrive soon," the Spirit Eye Underworld King cautioned.

He lifted his hand, and a golden jade cauldron appeared in it. The cauldron slowly floated up towards the Life Fruit and let out a light, wrapping around the fruit and capturing it.

A look of elation could be seen in the Spirit Eye Underworld King's eyes. He then beckoned with his hand, causing the cauldron to fly back towards him.

Bang!

However, just as it was about to be collected into his sleeve, the entire abyss started to collapse as domineering crystalline dragonbreath swept across the area, blasting towards the two Kings in the blink of an eye. The ambush was too sudden for them to react—no, perhaps they did react, but their power was insufficient to stop it. As the dragonbreath filled their eyes, they could hear a deafening draconic roar that grew louder as the source approached them.

"Li Luo!" Both the Spirit Eye Underworld King and Qin Jiujie were filled with fury. It was clear that this attack had come from the brat that had just escaped!

It seemed like he had never escaped. He had deliberately deceived them! Filled with absolute fury, they could only see a colossal Heavenly Dragon rushing towards them with a hint of mockery in its eyes.

Li Luo's mocking words rang out. "You two old bastards, are you trying to pull a fast one on me? I was just checking to see if you were affected by the Heavenly Emperor Edict as well!"

Bang!

The crystalline dragonbreath whizzed through the void. Before the Spirit Eye Underworld King and Qin Jiujie were able to make a sound, they were shattered into crystal fragments. When Li Luo saw this, he didn't approach them immediately but waited for the crystal chips to dissipate before he heaved a sigh of relief.

"It seems that those were weak clones..." Li Luo muttered to himself. Those two old foxes had clearly put on a show earlier, almost frightening him away. It was fortunate that he was brave and thus stuck around to probe further.

"Just what could the Origin Reversion Institute be hiding here?" Li Luo's gaze turned towards the golden jade cauldron in the air. Within it was an esoteric golden fruit that exuded incredible amounts of vitality. It seemed very out of place in this abyss filled with corruption. He reached out and retrieved the cauldron before carefully inspecting the fruit. "Is this mysterious object the reason why the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo which Grandpa transformed into started to react?"

When he had destroyed the Core Platform, he had made plans to leave, but the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo in his pocket sphere began to show signs of movement, as though it was attracted to something. Thus, Li Luo had begun to trace the source of the disturbance and ended up discovering the giant pit that Qin Jiujie and the Spirit Eye Underworld King were hiding in.

"Doesn't matter, I'll collect it for safekeeping for now." Li Luo then swallowed the cauldron and turned to leave. It was then that he noticed that the clouds of corruption that had filled the skies were dissipating and the Stygian Rain had turned into a thin, black mist.

He could sense that the Heavenly Emperor's Edict's Law was gradually vanishing.

Li Luo sighed in relief. The reason why the Other Disaster had been so incredibly difficult to resolve was due to the Heavenly Emperor's Edict preventing Kings from entering. Thus, the true peak individuals of the Heavenly Emperor powers had their hands tied and could only watch on idly.

But just as he was about to leave, the void suddenly shook and a gigantic, black eyeball opened up in the void. Two terrifying fluctuations were descending through the void towards him.

A voice filled with dense killing intent rumbled. "Li Luo! You dare to blaspheme what belongs to the Origin Reversion Institute? Are you looking to die?"

Both the Spirit Eye Underworld King and Qin Jiujie were arriving in person!

Sensing that the pressure was far greater than before, it was obvious that their true bodies were coming.

Li Luo felt his scalp turn numb. Those two stinky old men were fast and clearly, their true bodies were not far away. Now that the Stygian Rain had dispersed, they could come here personally.

Run! The Heavenly Dragon waved its tail as it shot forward in a beam of violet-gold light, shattering the void as he raced away.

He had no plans to confront two peak Dual Crowned Kings and so he could only run.

However, how would the two Kings let him take the Life Fruit away? A bloody aura condensed in the void, transforming into a bloody eye that then split apart, revealing countless scarlet runes within.

"Shining Reaper's Light." A gloomy voice boomed and a beam of bloody light pierced through the air, filled with the aura of death. If one were to be contaminated by this light, they would have all their life force sucked away and die! Even though Li Luo had a robust body, he would still die without a doubt if he were struck by it. It was obvious that his actions had infuriated the Spirit Eye Underworld King.

As the light descended, it sealed away Li Luo's path of retreat. The might of a Dual Crowned King was terrifying to behold. Thus, Li Luo resorted to the only thing he could do, which was to shout, "Save me mother!"

Bang!

As his voice echoed through the lands, the space behind him surged with silverish-gold light. The earth-shaking and tyrannical cry of a Great Peng was transmitted through the void.

A slender hand stretched out from a spatial rift and lightly grasped the beam of bloody light. Bang!

Space distorted and shattered, and the beam of bloody light was crushed, turning into motes of light that scattered everywhere before being consumed by spatial rifts.

After which, space rippled yet again and an elegant female in a violet coat strode out. At the same time, her laughing voice was heard.

"Come here, my good son."
