In Zhu Xian, people start to rise from plundering entries

"Yes!" the elders responded in unison, leaping down into the stone hall. They formed hand seals and channeled their spiritual energy into the light barrier. Streams of spiritual light converged, gradually repairing the cracks in the barrier, and the runes regained their brightness.

Su Han roared madly within the light barrier. He seemed to sense the power from the outside world, and his attacks became even more ferocious. His body continued to expand, the demonic runes became clearer, and the demonic horns on his forehead grew even thicker.

Just then, a silver light flashed across the sky. The light landed at the entrance of the stone palace, and when it dissipated, the figure of Fairy Moonlight appeared in the doorway. She looked somewhat tired, and her clothes were a little disheveled, but she tightly clutched a crystal-clear lotus seed in her hand—the very seed of the Chaos Green Lotus.

"Junior Sister Yuehua!" Master Xuanyang's eyes flashed with surprise when he saw Fairy Yuehua. "You've finally returned!"

The Moon Fairy remained silent, her gaze immediately falling upon Su Han within the light barrier. Seeing Su Han shrouded in demonic energy and seemingly out of his mind, her heart clenched, and a flicker of pain flashed in her eyes.

"Su Han!" she shouted, quickly walking to the light barrier. She could feel that the demonic seed within Su Han had fully erupted, and if it wasn't purified soon, there would be no more chances.

"Junior Sister Yuehua, quick, use the Chaos Green Lotus seeds to purify him!" Master Xuanyang said, "We can't hold on much longer!"

Moonflower Fairy nodded, took a deep breath, and took out the Chaos Green Lotus seed from her hand. The lotus seed emitted a faint green light, containing endless vitality, which contrasted sharply with the demonic energy on Su Han's body.

She raised her hand and waved, sending the lotus seed slowly flying towards Su Han inside the light barrier. Just as the lotus seed was about to touch Su Han, the light barrier suddenly cracked and shattered completely. Su Han burst out of the light barrier and grabbed at the lotus seed.

"Watch out!" Xuan Yang Zhenren shouted, immediately making a move to try and stop Su Han. But Su Han was too fast; his hand had already grabbed the lotus seed.

Everyone thought Su Han would destroy the lotus seed. But unexpectedly, after grabbing the lotus seed, he suddenly stopped. He lowered his head, looking at the lotus seed in his hand, a trace of confusion flashing in his deep purple pupils, as if he were struggling.

"Su Han, quickly take the lotus seed!" Fairy Yuehua shouted, her eyes full of anticipation. "Take it, and you'll be able to break free from the demon seed's control!"

Su Han didn't move, his body trembling uncontrollably, a look of pain on his face. The power of the demonic seed raged wildly within him, trying to stop him from consuming the lotus seed. His hands gripped the lotus seed tightly, his nails digging deep into his palms, black blood dripping onto the seed.

"Ah—!" Su Han let out a painful roar, abruptly raising his head, a glimmer of clarity flashing in his deep purple pupils. He looked at Fairy Moonflower, his voice hoarse as he said, "Master...Master Aunt...I...I can't control myself..."

"I know, Su Han, you can do it!" Fairy Yuehua's eyes were filled with tears. "Believe in yourself, take the lotus seed, and you will definitely be able to break free from the control of the demonic seed!"

Su Han nodded, and with all his might, he put the lotus seed into his mouth. The lotus seed melted instantly in his mouth, and a cool power spread throughout his body, fiercely fighting against the demonic energy within him.

His body convulsed violently, the demonic runes on his body flashing incessantly, sometimes becoming clear, sometimes dimming. His deep purple pupils also changed constantly, sometimes regaining their clarity, sometimes shrouded in demonic energy.

"Not good! The demonic seed is resisting!" Master Xuan Yang's expression changed drastically. "Junior Sister Yuehua, we must help him suppress the power of the demonic seed!" Fairy Yuehua nodded. She, Master Xuan Yang, and several elders joined forces, channeling their spiritual energy into Su Han's body to help him suppress the power of the demonic seed. Streams of spiritual light gathered on Su Han's body, fiercely confronting the demonic energy within him.

Su Han's pain intensified, and wounds appeared all over his body. Black demonic energy and white spiritual light surged from these wounds, intertwining with each other. He gritted his teeth, stubbornly persisting, refusing to give up.

Just then, a powerful force suddenly erupted from Su Han's body. This force contained both immortal and demonic energy, which merged together to form a completely new power. The demonic markings on his body gradually faded, the demonic horns on his forehead slowly retracted, and his deep purple pupils regained their clarity.

"Success?" A hint of surprise flashed in Master Yunlan's eyes as he whispered.

But at that moment, Su Han suddenly opened his eyes, a strange red light flashing within them. He abruptly pushed away everyone around him, and a powerful demonic aura erupted around his body, even more violent than before.

"Oh no! He's been devoured by the demonic seed!" Xuan Yang Zhenren was shocked and immediately took action, trying to control Su Han again.

But Su Han's power had become incredibly strong, easily blocking Xuan Yang Zhenren's attack. He looked at everyone, a strange smile playing on his lips, and said in a hoarse voice, "The Chaos Demon Seed... truly powerful... From this day forward, I am the Demon Lord!"

A hint of despair flashed in Fairy Moon's eyes. She couldn't believe that the Chaos Green Lotus Seed she had painstakingly found had not only failed to purify Su Han, but had instead caused him to be completely devoured by the demonic seed and fall into the demonic path.

"Su Han, wake up! It's me, Martial Aunt Yuehua!" she shouted, trying to rouse Su Han's consciousness.

Su Han didn't respond. He raised his hand and waved, sending a massive black wave of energy rushing towards the group. Xuan Yang Zhenren and several elders immediately took action, forming a light shield to block the black wave. With a deafening roar, the light shield trembled violently, and the group was forced back, blood trickling from their mouths.

"Everyone, attack together and suppress him!" Xuan Yang Zhenren shouted sternly. He knew there was no turning back now; if Su Han wasn't suppressed, the entire Qingyun Sect would be destroyed.

The elders and disciples all made their moves, unleashing beams of spiritual light and sword energy towards Su Han. Su Han sneered, raised his hand, and countless black demonic energies condensed into demonic blades, flying towards the crowd.

The two sides clashed instantly. The stone hall was shattered, dust billowed across Bright Moon Peak, and spiritual and demonic energy intertwined, forming a powerful storm. Screams, the clash of weapons, and explosions filled the air.

Moonlight Fairy stood rooted to the spot, gazing at everything before her, her heart filled with pain and self-reproach. She felt it was all her fault; if she hadn't insisted on searching for the Chaos Lotus, Su Han wouldn't have become like this.

Just then, Su Han suddenly rushed towards Fairy Moonflower. His speed was as fast as lightning, and a huge black demonic fist condensed in his hand, aiming straight for Fairy Moonflower's chest.

Moon Fairy didn't flinch; she looked at Su Han, her eyes filled with tears. "Su Han, don't you really recognize me?" (End of Chapter)
