"Truly wonderful..."
"A war between worlds, a very interesting concept."
Even the experienced Jiang Mo was amazed, though the ending of the story was somewhat regrettable.
Even Wan'e, the son of the stars, was defeated.
Even if you gather the resentment and roars of billions of living beings, you cannot change the absolute power gap.
Jiang Mo, who possessed divine qualities, could empathize with the situation, and his heart was stirred by the emotions within him.
In the same predicament, if it weren't for his powerful fists, he wouldn't have been able to defeat the three major forces from beyond the realm.
After Tianyuan enters the world in the future, everything here will be divided up by the outside world. It goes without saying what kind of fate the creatures here will suffer in order to find the so-called innate magic artifacts.
"May I ask you, sir, are you determined to exterminate all the humans and demons from beyond this realm?"
The topic of the root cause of the epidemic has been brought to the forefront, stating:
"If so, I'm willing to help you! Even at any cost, even if you don't let me out, even if you want my three great spiritual treasures, I don't care!"
The tone of the statement regarding the root cause of the epidemic was firm and cold, extremely decisive.
Its lifelong wish was to exterminate the extraterrestrial human and demon races, but this was no longer possible after its death, and it was forever locked in the abyss.
Seeing a fellow Daoist in a similar situation, it couldn't help but add fuel to the fire, entrusting its long-cherished wish to the white-haired man before it.
The moment the question about the root cause of the epidemic was raised, time seemed to freeze.
A fleeting moment that lasts forever—this is a historic moment.
A wisp of remnant soul, sheltered by countless ruined worlds, invites the strongest being from a world that has not been destroyed to completely annihilate the root cause of all the calamities—the extraterrestrial humans and demons—before the disaster strikes.
"Of course I do."
The source of the disease didn't wait long; it received Jiang Mo's answer immediately.
"First there was the Other Shore Chaos Flower, then there is your Root Plague... I suppose the Sunset Demon Emperor will one day use you to eliminate me."
"And I also declared war on the three major forces outside the region a long time ago."
"Tell me, what's the situation on your end, and how can you help me?"
Jiang Mo asked thoughtfully, his gaze deep. His Eye of Truth could capture the emotional reaction of the root of the plague, which was extremely simple and pure, turning from the previous chaos into the current hatred.
"it is good!"
"it is good!!!"
"Heaven rewards those who persevere!! All my years of waiting and torment have been in vain, but finally I've found a helper like you. It's all worth it, all worth it, hahaha!!!"
The root of the disease let out a maniacal laugh, excited and agitated, as if it wanted to release all the pent-up repression accumulated over the long years at this moment.
The laughter lasted for several minutes before gradually stopping, and Jiang Mo did not say anything to disturb it, but simply waited.
"In the current outer realms, the Sunset Demon Emperor is engaged in fierce battle with the Imperial Dynasty, the Sword Sect, and the Eight Great Lineages. The human race has lost over 600,000 li of territory, but the demon race holds a negligible advantage."
"As time goes by, more and more old ghosts are crawling out of their coffins. Their cultivation is not as high as that of the Sunset Demon Emperor, but their numbers are numerous. They suppress the high-end combat power of the demon race except for the Demon Emperor. In other words, in the next war, as long as the Demon Emperor is tied down, the twelve kings of the Sunset Royal Court and all the people will suffer a terrible massacre."
"The human race is preparing to launch a counterattack, but unfortunately, I think it's unlikely. This generation of Sunset Demon Emperor is too strong. He was besieged by more than a dozen supreme beings, but he miraculously held on. During the attack, he even killed an elderly supreme Dao Lord of the human race, seized his corpse, contaminated it with disease, and controlled him to defect to another side."
"While it is true that my two great spiritual treasures have contributed to this, objectively speaking, their own strength is also unprecedented throughout history."
Jiang Mo listened attentively, then suddenly asked, "Which two of your companion spirit treasures did you lend to it?"
"The banner of ten thousand poisons over mountains and rivers, the emperor's eyes that shatter illusions."
The root of the epidemic then revealed their main supernatural abilities and the information about the access control restrictions.
"It is very powerful. I have relinquished 80% of the authority of two spiritual treasures to it. Any more, and there may be unexpected events. I only need to control the last 20% of the core authority, and I will have the opportunity to betray it at any time."
"And what about your Undying True Blood Armor? Is it still intact?" Jiang Mo asked, a scheme beginning to take shape in his mind.
"Hidden deep in the universe, it is my backup body for escaping and resurrection, and its condition has been fully restored."
The source of the disease replied, then suddenly remembered something and tentatively asked Jiang Mo:
"That beast once said that you have the means to fight your way out of Tianyuan in a few years. Is that true?"
"Yes, you can go out."
"But the cost is too high, and I am weighing whether or not to do it, since there are many troubles involved in its implementation."
Jiang Mo did not elaborate, but if they really wanted to break through the Heavenly Abyss Boundary Wall, the best weapon would undoubtedly be the giant cannon that the Starry Sky Humans had planted deep in the sun, which had been charging for thousands of years. With just one shot, the entire planet could be reduced to ashes, and the boundary wall would then have a hole.
What about the creatures that inhabit these places? Where should they migrate to?
It's too troublesome to carry out, and Jiang Mo doesn't want to use that giant cannon to open the boundary wall unless absolutely necessary.
"How about this..."
The root cause of the epidemic proactively proposed:
"The Sunset Royal Court now has a Celestial Horse ruler from the Seven Lives Palace. It can use its inherited clan artifacts to break through the boundary wall and enter the Heavenly Abyss. How about we set up a trap and kill the Sunset Demon Emperor together?"
“Good, continue.” Jiang Mo nodded.
"The Sunset Demon Emperor and those top human beings are still evenly matched, but it is alone and cannot stand alone. If the fight continues, it will eventually be exhausted and injured. The remaining demon races are also besieging it, and there are quite a few rulers of the Nine Palaces and Nine Stars."
"In my opinion, when the battle becomes intense and it is in dire need of help, it will definitely ask me to borrow the third spiritual treasure. I will take advantage of that gap and tell it that I can enter the Heavenly Abyss ahead of time, seize your physical body for my resurrection, and all the innate magical artifacts on your body will belong to it. I can also tell it the wonderful uses of those innate magical artifacts to lure it."
Jiang Mo had no doubts about the plan mentioned by the source of the epidemic.
Because he remembered that the Heavenly Horse Saint King, according to the timeline, was also close to breaking through the barrier.
If they could truly break through the barrier, why would the Root Plague and the Sunset Demon Emperor need to go to such lengths? They could enter at any time and start fighting at any time, without needing to set up such a complicated scheme to deal with them.
"Getting it hooked? That won't be easy..."
Jiang Mo had dealt with the Sunset Demon Emperor before. In his impression, this demon was extremely cautious yet bold and decisive in killing.
"Ambush requires patience. The opportunity will come soon. We just need to wait for the top beings of the human race and the eight great lineages to exert their strength. They are more powerful than you and I can imagine."
The source of the plague was absolutely certain that, with powerful enemies lurking on all sides, the Sunset Demon Emperor would not be able to hold out for long.
Chapter 580 Acting Naturally
Jiang Mo did not have much hope for the original plan of the epidemic.
"What you said makes some sense, but I killed its clone once when it was in perfect condition."
"Moreover, this place is still Tianyuan, and its cultivation will be suppressed. Even if the boundary wall is broken, the hole created by a mere Seven Palaces Ruler is not enough to change the long-standing closure between Tianyuan and the outer realm, and it will be repaired in an instant."
After a long silence, the source of the disease suddenly asked, "Do you want to go out?"
"Once all the trivial matters of this world are resolved, I really want to go and see the world beyond. Do you have any good ideas?"
"Hmm... not now. Give me some time, I'll think of a way. If we can open up a path to bring you out of the Abyss, then the situation outside the realm will be written by you and me."
"With the Mountain and River Ten Thousand Poison Banner, the Illusion-Breaking Emperor's Eye, and all your own innate magical artifacts, the probability of destroying the Sunset Royal Court and killing the Demon Emperor is extremely high."
The root cause of the epidemic foreshadowed the coming of a devastating war in the not-too-distant future.
"Even without your two spiritual treasures, I can still kill the Demon Emperor if I want to."
"The difficulty lies in the fact that I cannot go out."
Jiang Mo said calmly, he had great confidence in his strength, and he could destroy all the laws and spirits in the world with a single sword.
"You don't need to plan anything more for me. The extraterrestrial humans are the thorns on my path that I need to clear. At this stage, you should do your best to assist the Sunset Demon Emperor and help him wipe out those forces in one fell swoop, so that I won't have to fight them one by one when I go out in the future."
Jiang Mo eventually changed the subject, showing no interest in discussing with the Root Plague how to scheme against the Sunset Demon Emperor.
Given absolute strength, strategy is merely icing on the cake, something that can be disregarded.
Even though he had different plans to deal with the Sunset Demon Emperor, he thought they were too troublesome and gave up as soon as the idea came to mind.
A ruler like the Sunset Demon Emperor, who is almost the sole sovereign of the world, is inherently highly intelligent, cunning, and suspicious. He can never be killed by scheming alone, nor will he ever fall for a trap.
The most effective and direct strategy is to confront it head-on, give it no chance to evade, and defeat it with brute force and a lightning-fast blitzkrieg.
"Fine, let's do it your way. Anyway, I'm not in a hurry..."
The source of the disease carefully considered Jiang Mo's words, speaking with a hint of amusement.
It knew of this creature from the abyss and feared it had ulterior motives, so it remained vigilant towards it.
"I can hold on for a while longer, until my divinity is completely extinguished, and until this drop of my immortal blood remains connected to you."
"If you ever venture beyond the realms in the future, the Mountain and River Ten Thousand Poison Banner and the Illusion-Breaking Emperor's Eye can help you fight back against that beast at any time."
"Ah."
After some conversation, the two sides reached a partial understanding: the root plague would be used, as arranged by Jiang Mo, to assist the Sunset Demon Emperor in suppressing the extraterrestrial human race until they were destroyed.
"Um... do you still have any Overlord-level food? Provide some for me. I need to further transform this Undying True Blood Body and restore some of its supernatural powers from its previous life."
The root of the plague made a request because it had learned from Jiang Mo that more than twenty demon race overlord avatars had been captured alive in Tianyuan, so it came up with this idea.
"Yes, it depends on what you're offering in exchange."
Jiang Mo gently opened his left hand, and true qi surged up, revealing images of those imprisoned sovereign beings.
The strongest clones, the Sunset Demon Emperor's clone and the Gluttonous King's clone, have not yet been devoured by the three kings.
Their blood energy was too terrifying, far beyond what the three kings could currently devour. If they tried to devour them by force, they would either lose control of the massive loss of blood energy or be burst apart alive.
However, when the root of the plague noticed the avatars of the Sunset Demon Emperor and the Gluttonous King, it revealed a chilling smile:
"I knew you human had some good stuff in your hands."
"However, my physical body is locked at the bottom of the sea, and I cannot retrieve many of the treasures I accumulated during my lifetime."
"All I can trade with you are things like weapon crafting, alchemy, formations, and supernatural abilities. That's all. I don't know if those things will suit your taste."
"........."
Upon hearing the answer regarding the root cause of the epidemic, Jiang Mo seemed thoughtful and said:
"Are there any supernatural powers with a wide range and extremely high destructive power?"
"of course."
Upon hearing this, the gray-brown figure raised his hand and began to write, using blood as ink and qi as paper. In an instant, he wrote more than three thousand words, which was a divine power called "Dark Fall Covering the Sky".
Its general effect is to cultivate the ultimate plague, feeding it with essence and true qi, causing it to reproduce and iterate wildly, each generation more ferocious than the last, evolving millions of times, until the final stage compresses countless poisonous qi into an immeasurably small point.
The moment the supernatural power was unleashed, space was sealed off, leaving no escape. Countless plagues spread, covering vast areas and bringing about the destruction of all things.
The caster's vitality determines the upper limit of their supernatural powers. The different plagues bred by the rulers of the Eighth and Ninth Palaces are worlds apart.
According to the source of the plague, 'Dark Meteor Covering the Sky' is one of its strongest supernatural abilities, besides its innate abilities, which it has cultivated after birth. When encountering this skill, beings of the same level are almost guaranteed to die.
"......"
Jiang Mo's gaze swept over the chapters formed by the Qi paper, and he was slightly moved, having the idea of practicing them.
With a "whoosh," he casually grabbed a dominant being from the prison within his body, clenched his five fingers tightly to suppress its soul, and then threw it to the gray-brown figure.
"It's yours."
"Pfft!"
The Undying True Blood Armor opened its fangs and maw, devouring the corpse of the Overlord, and began a new round of evolution.
"Do you want the formation? I stole it from my enemy."
"Interested in the secret manual for crafting forbidden magical artifacts?"
"There are also alchemical supernatural powers, which refine the essence of heaven and earth, using the body as a cauldron and blood and qi as fire to cook all living things, providing a one-step boost."
"Buzz!"
"Buzz!"
"Buzz!"
For the next half hour, the two sides traded quite happily. Jiang Mo obtained many top-level divine abilities from the Root Plague, while the Root Plague also devoured the physical bodies of all the sovereigns except for the Gluttonous King and the Sunset Demon Emperor.
Jiang Mo planned to save that Taotie King clone for Yao Wang's next breakthrough.
As for the Sunset Demon Emperor's clone, Jiang Mo peeled off a portion of its flesh and blood and handed it over to the Root Plague Research Institute, ordering it to develop a plague that could restrain the Sunset Demon Emperor's physical body.
Why would they do that?
The reason is that the root of the plague mentioned to Jiang Mo a racial supernatural ability of the Sunset Demon Emperor, whose speed is unparalleled in the world. If it sees something wrong and wants to escape, probably no one can stop it, not even Jiang Mo in his peak condition.
