Chapter 1261: Got Trapped

His dim, yellowish eyes narrowed slightly, and then, as the surrounding environment suddenly darkened, his pupils slowly dilated again.

The dark sky, with a blood-stained black sun hanging high beneath the dome of despair, depicted a scene of shattered mountains and rivers, a vision of the end of the world.

For Xiao Se now, nothing in front of him could frighten him.

Even though it had completely changed its appearance, Xiao Se was still able to tell where he was by recognizing the many features of the place.

It seems to be the world my father and the others once talked about, a world called the Dou Qi Continent.

That place was invaded by the evil race about 50,000 years ago. After the king of the Devouring Spirit Clan was killed, it lay dormant for 10,000 years, only to make a comeback during the era of my father and mother's rise to power, but ultimately it was defeated by them.

Xiao Se frowned, precisely because these were past events that had no direct connection to him, yet were intricately intertwined, that they were all the more concerning.

My father and mother once encountered a demonic illusion within the ruins of the Sumeru Realm, which, conversely—

Not far away, a mournful cry that seemed to tear the earth apart could be heard.

The two enormous figures collapsed with a deafening roar, turning into scattered streams of fire, like the flowing blood of giants, which flowed into the cracks and wounds of the earth, igniting a continuous fire that scorched the extremely filthy demonic energy mixed within.

Before the two enormous figures that crashed down, a ten-thousand-foot-tall demonic shadow, like steel that had reached its melting point, began to collapse under its own weight.

That is—?
Was he the Devouring Spirit Saint King who once invaded the Dou Qi Continent?

As he watched the scenes unfold before his eyes, Xiao Se became even more focused, not wanting to miss a single moment.

Meanwhile, among the countless molten and boiling demonic bodies, the ten-thousand-foot-tall demonic body finally revealed something resembling a core.

Is this the main body?

Xiao Se squinted slightly, trying hard to make out the appearance of the figure under the blood wind and blood thunder.

Then, with one hand, it tore apart countless pieces of flesh that were stuck together, struggling to break free from this useless body.

At the same time, Xiao Se also saw it.

That blood-stained, ferocious face was strikingly similar to his own, almost identical.

Xiao Se suddenly opened his eyes wide.

"Crack!"

A thunderclap swept across, shattering space like glass with a heavy hammer, tearing it apart completely.

"—Oh no, he's noticed!"

A cacophony of screams erupted around him, and his dim eyes regained their light, but at the same time, a flame of anger ignited within them.

In a flash, Xiao Se realized exactly what was going on, but he didn't say anything more.

The insults I receive can be answered with the sword in my hand.

His thin lips trembled slightly, and with a gentle flick of his flaming sword, the Blade Demon realized what the other party was trying to do. His hair stood on end, and he no longer dared to contend with such an enraged Saint-level being.

"Come on!"

The Blade Demon subconsciously glanced at the Inner Demon behind him, but he never expected that the guy would run faster than him.

But it's not his place to say these things now.

He then felt the scorching flames from behind him, and the Blade Demon dared not be negligent in the slightest. Amidst the wails of the demons, he flew away and fled into the depths of the Demon Realm.

Seeing the demons before him turn into ashes under the raging flames, Xiao Se instinctively wanted to chase after them, determined to make them suffer a great loss.

But as he took that first step, Xiao Se couldn't help but recall his father's admonitions over the past century. After a moment of silence, he decided to abandon the pursuit. He couldn't catch up anyway.

Coincidentally, he currently has something he needs to contact them about... He needs to go and confirm with them.

Xiao Se took a deep breath, then immediately turned and left the demon realm that had been reduced to scorched earth.

"Damn it! If you hadn't deliberately targeted that imperial prince, and if the other clan leaders had waited until they arrived, he wouldn't have been able to escape today, and we've lost so many demon emperors!"

"Clan Chief Blade Demon, please calm down. After all, didn't you say so yourself?"

"Wouldn't it be a good thing if such a terrifying weapon could be used by me?"

"you--"

"Chief of the Blade Demon Clan, you have high hopes. When the gods return in the future, you will be credited with the greatest merit in the battle to destroy the Endless Fire Domain—"

…………

In the Endless Fire Domain, apart from the directly adjacent frontal battlefields, many neighboring lower planes also suffered attacks from the evil race.

Therefore, the Endless Fire Domain naturally dispatched many powerful individuals to guard, suppress, expel, or eventually eliminate them on the spot.

Fortunately, these lower planes were not inhabited by any living beings because of their sensitive location. The world where living beings now thrive has been well protected, and no one can escape its protection.

However, this action was more of a test. Not only Xiao Yan and Yao Wan, but even excluding these two powerful figures, the Endless Fire Domain still has at least two Saint-grade experts stationed here on a daily basis, as well as many Heavenly Sovereigns, and a vast amount of resources accumulated through the sound of pills that are no less than any ancient clan with ten thousand years of history.

Even assuming that Emperor Yan and Empress Xuan do not intervene, the overall strength of the Endless Fire Domain is still a tough nut to crack.

Therefore, it is essential to conduct a trial run in preparation for further actions.

However, Yao Wan thought it was unnecessary; she could simply let Xiao Se wipe them out.

As for whether it's a trap, their inaction isn't simply because they find it troublesome. Since the other side can dig a pit, they can certainly keep an eye on them as well.

Back when Xiao Yan ventured deep into the Demon Realm, she was able to stop him from using underhanded tactics. If someone really wants to overturn the table, they'd better see if they have the ability.

However, it seems that this is the end of it for now.

Yao Wan blinked, and then she heard footsteps behind her.

"You're back? How did it go?"

Xiao Yan looked up at his son and couldn't help but worry about whether he was injured, but he vaguely felt that his expression was a little off.

"There were two Heavenly Demon Emperors, one a Blade Demon and the other a Heart Demon. Apart from these two demons, they were all burned to ashes."

“The Heavenly Demon Emperors are all incredibly cunning, so it’s normal that you can’t catch them.”

Yao Wan nodded. As long as the other party knows the pain, that's enough. If they really want to die honestly, she doesn't mind if they die with less pain. But if they think they can gamble and keep courting death, then it's better for them to die completely as soon as possible.

"...In addition, there is one more thing I would like to ask my father and mother."

"Does the Heart Demon Clan possess an ability similar to illusion, used to bewitch people's hearts?"

Upon hearing Xiao Se's question, Xiao Yan and Yao Wan couldn't help but narrow their eyes and subconsciously exchange a glance.

"You've been infected?"

"I...I saw some things that I couldn't confirm were real or fake."

Xiao Se frowned, and despite his inner turmoil, he still spoke.
