Chapter 476: Chapter 368 Evil Spirit!

The Evil Spirit appeared directly in the grand hall of the palace.

No one had anticipated this, nor could anyone have predicted it.

The second hand ticked once.

The monster raised its glowing arm full of eyeballs—

"Let everything be destroyed."

It issued a mocking and cruel voice.

The light flared brightly, about to spread out at any moment.

Wu Xiaode abruptly looked towards Li Kunlun, who shouted in despair,

"It’s too late!"

—His reality indeed had the ability to traverse the future, but it also needed a bit of time to brew before it could be activated.

Now it was completely too late!

Wu Xiaode felt the terrifying fluctuations of power within that light, his heart sinking to rock bottom.

With Dark Tao Power "See Through," he indeed could dive into the Death World and avoid this attack.

But others couldn’t!

At this moment, he could not save everyone!

The second hand moved again.

Suddenly, a golden figure quietly descended.

—Nina!

She emanated an endless solemn and majestic aura, floating mid-air, her eyes one gold and one silver, intently staring at the octopus.

The golden eyes represented the mother of the Divine Beasts,

while the silver eyes represented the child of the Divine Beasts.

She spoke,

"Under the setting of the most ancient creatures, your body has already completed laying and hatching eggs, now it’s time for you to die."

—The Divine Beasts fought with settings!

The monster suddenly emitted a sharp, rapid shriek from its mouth.

"No, I have not yet obtained a suitable body—"

The light on its body completely dissipated.

One by one, the eyeballs closed, falling into silence, causing its body to revert to its original form.

—But it was an octopus.

The octopus emanated an intense light, its buzzing voice spoke,

"Mortals shall not hinder the progression of the era, I have already satisfied the 1000 Level requirement—"

"I will come again!"

The ball of light disappeared, leaving only that spiteful voice echoing in the hall, lingering for a long time.

"So that’s how it is!"

Wu Xiaode suddenly understood.

Heroic Spirits couldn’t interfere with everything in the real world unless they obtained the bodies of sentient beings.

After this Heroic Spirit entered the world, it first obtained the body of an octopus, using it as a stepping-stone to set a trap, wanting to kill Xiao Baihong.

Fortunately, Nina appeared in time!

Wu Xiaode looked towards her, only to see her majestic aura dissipated, all the strange phenomena gone.

—The Divine Beast returned the body to Nina.

"Brother Wu!"

Nina greeted him with a smile.

"It’s good that you came, otherwise that strike just now could have flattened the entire Capital." Wu Xiaode said in relief.

"I too felt the trickery of the dark Divine Beast, and that’s when I noticed something was amiss," Nina said.

Wu Xiaode was stunned.

After eliminating those immortals, the dark Divine Beast seemed to have remained quiet.

Could it be that it was brewing a sinister plan?

Nina’s face was full of worry, as she spoke,

"This world will welcome the descent of Heroic Spirits."

"This was supposed to be a good thing," Wu Xiaode scratched his head and said: "I heard that the Heroic Spirits must reach Level 1000 and must have signed a Heroic Spirit Contract with a person before they can descend to our world, to fight the apocalypse with us."

"This was indeed supposed to be a good thing, but after the dark Divine Beast noticed, it secretly added a setting:" Nina said,

"Evil Spirits of the evil and chaotic alignments can find beings whose compatibilities match, and descend by possessing their bodies."

Compatibility matching...

Everyone involuntarily looked towards Xiao Baihong.

Xiao Baihong stroked his hair, troubled, and said,

"I do have a keen interest in slaughter, but I don’t kill indiscriminately."

Nina explained,

"—’Compatibility matching’ is the crucial element between Heroic Spirits and sentient beings; even if the dark Divine Beast creates a setting, it can’t bypass that."

"What makes a human human is that they have reason, they can control their thoughts and actions, but Evil Spirits don’t care about these things; as long as you have strong negative thoughts, you are compatible with them."

Everyone fell silent.

In that case, the battle just now was actually a sheer fluke.

Wu Xiaode directly asked, "We were just lucky just now, right?"

"Yes, the location where that Evil Spirit descended was the ocean. There, the animals’ predation and killing are purely instinctive, very easy to control, so it found that octopus," Nina said.

"And that octopus’s life had reached its end, that’s why it was in a rush to change bodies," Wu Xiaode said.

"Exactly, Xiao Baihong was its next prey."

Everyone couldn’t help but sigh in unison.

It was fortunate that this was the case.

Otherwise, if a Level 1000 Heroic Spirit descended into the world, who could withstand it?

The Emperor suddenly interjected:

"Based on this, the world will eventually be destroyed by Evil Spirits—after all, none of the beings in the world can match them," he said.

"I have taken defensive measures," Nina declared.

"What measures?" the Emperor asked.

Nina replied, "The boundary between life and death has just begun to open, so not many Heroic Spirits can descend at the moment, about one per hour."

"So I released all my power and formed a new worldly setting,"

"Only one Heroic Spirit can descend every 12 hours."

"Is it going to be like this from now on?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"At least for the next few days it will be like this—until this setting can no longer prevent the full opening of the life and death boundaries," Nina replied.

Zhao Zhibing suddenly walked to the corpse of the octopus, placing one hand on the corpse and the other forming a Dharma Seal.

A few moments passed.

She then said, "This creature was possessed nine hours ago."

Nine hours.

That meant in another three hours, a new Evil Spirit would arrive.

— A Level 1000 Evil Spirit.

How did things get to this point?

Nina shook her head, "No matter how powerful the Heroic Spirits are, they cannot change the realities of the real world, this is our own mistake."

"Yes, we didn’t deal with that Dark Law Divine Beast in time," Wu Xiaode sighed.

That’s what was said.

But when that Dark Law Divine Beast merely calls, all beings will obey its command.

Who could kill it?

"On the bright side, maybe the next one to come will be a Heroic Spirit, not an Evil Spirit," Qian Mingkui said.

Everyone turned to Nina.

"It’s fifty-fifty, I don’t know who will come next, but I’ve done everything I can," Nina replied, shaking her head.

She retreated toward the Void.

"Are you leaving?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"I’ve released too much power and must rush back to the depths of the Sin Prison, otherwise the prisoners will start causing trouble," Nina said, her face showing fatigue.

She gave Wu Xiaode one last look.

"Brother Wu, I’ve done all I can on my end, I hope you won’t blame me."

A smile immediately appeared on Wu Xiaode’s face:

"Don’t worry, I’ll handle things here. As for the Dark Law Divine Beast, once I deal with the next coming Evil Spirit or Heroic Spirit, I’ll take care of it."

Nina’s lips curled upward slightly.

"It’s up to you now."

After saying this, her form flickered and completely vanished.

The hall returned to silence.

"Three more hours! Gentlemen, let’s think of something!" the Emperor said somberly.

"I’ll go! I will head into the future to see whether it’s a Heroic Spirit or an Evil Spirit that is coming!" Li Kunlun declared.

Qian Mingkui’s eyes lit up, and he immediately exclaimed loudly:

"Yes, that’s great—Brother Kun, you’re the master of ’Dual Reality’ after all!"

Li Kunlun stood in place, eyes slightly closed, then suddenly stepped forward.

He disappeared in front of everyone.

A moment.

Two moments.

Three moments.

The Void flickered.

Li Kunlun rolled onto the ground covered in blood, gasping deeply for air.

Wu Xiaode inwardly cursed, sensing trouble.

Ulysses appeared behind him and began to treat Li Kunlun.

Before long.

"That’s it."

Li Kunlun said weakly.

Qian Mingkui excitedly ran up to help him up.

"Brother Kun, what’s the situation?" Qian Mingkui asked expectantly.

Li Kunlun gave a bitter smile, shook his head, and said:

"It’s an Evil Spirit."

"It took possession of a death row prisoner’s body as soon as it arrived, and without hesitation, it used powerful Curse Skills to destroy much of the world."

"Only Wu Xiaode could withstand a few of its moves."

"So, did we win in the end?" Qian Mingkui asked.

"Win? You mean we defeated it?"

Li Kunlun laughed as if he had heard something absurd, his eyes full of sorrow.

He looked deeply at Qian Mingkui and continued,

"That creature is a king among Evil Spirits, even Wu Xiaode at full stretch was no match for it."

"We all died, Elder Qian, do you understand?"
