The Yan Dragon Army's battle formation focused on its savagery, speed, and strength combining into a whole. All to achieve destruction.
Thus, when Wu Yu saw Yu Fuyao of the Heavenly Seas succumbing to the attacks, he knew that he couldn't stop the army.
Qu Haoyang was still significantly stronger and thus didn't think things through. It would be best to not let her remain on the dais.
Wu Yu remembered that the Heaven Devouring Evil Residence's key was in Yu Fuyao of the Heavenly Seas' hands.
At this point, before Wu Yu could react, Yu Fuyao and the dais were completely engulfed by the attacks of the Yan Dragon Formation.
Perhaps it was because Yu Fuyao had devoured some of their fellow brothers that the Yan Dragon Army was so incensed. It seemed that they had lost all sense of reason and ignored all consequences.
Qu Haoyang's mystique, World-Cleansing Fire, was no exception. At this point, it had turned into a humongous, roiling fireball, casting a shadow upon the entire area.
Bang, bang, bang!
Countless dao techniques and mystiques exploded upon the dais, exuding frightening strength. Wu Yu and Luo Pin in the past did not possess absolute might of these individuals, yet they had faith that they could completely destroy the dais, much less this group of cultivators.
It was previously a seal cast by the heavenly immortals, but it had been too long since then.
Thus, this entire place was not as sturdy as before.
Under these relentless barrages, Wu Yu could see that the dais was gradually shattering. Meanwhile, Yu Fuyao gradually disappeared. It looked as though she had evaporated into thin air!
However with Wu Yu's Eyes of Fire and Gold, at the last moment, he could see that she had activated the key and entered the depths of the Heaven Devouring Evil Residence.
Frankly speaking, Wu Yu's thoughts were in turmoil. He did not want to re-enter that doomed land.
Yet the Heaven Devouring Evil Lord was the shadow in the dark that kept everyone on their toes. If he were to reappear, it would undoubtedly set off a catastrophe...
Thus, with the changes in the situation, Yu Fuyao of the Heavenly Seas had entered the residence again.
Qu Haoyang and the rest were still in the dark. In fact, they were congratulating each other on a job well done.
They saw Wu Yu rush into the midst of the battlefield.
"What are you doing!?" Qu Haoyang bellowed.
"If you take any longer, the Heaven Devouring Evil Lord is going to escape." After that one sentence, he vanished before their very eyes as he dashed into the Heaven Devouring Evil Residence.
He had once again entered this deep and dark world.
"Enter!" Now that Qu Haoyang had received this assignment, if he were to return, he too would receive significant commendations. After listening to Wu Yu's words, it seemed as though the opponent had not been dispatched.
Under Qu Haoyang's orders and leadership, the Yan Dragon Army followed suit.
Everyone had entered.
Wu Yu was the quickest. Upon entering, he immediately saw Yu Fuyao. She was currently rushing towards the large doors of the residence. Wu Yu quickly increased speed as he recklessly charged over. He had managed to put himself between Yu Fuyao and the door.
"Wu Yu, blocking me will have dire consequences." Yu Fuyao of the Heavenly Seas laughed gaily.
"Really?" After losing the Otherworldly Infinite 10,000 Dragons Staff, Wu Yu had lost his strongest weapon.
However, the importance of this situation was unquestionable. He could not retreat.
"Purgatory Chains!" His mystique seemed to have some effect on Yu Fuyao. Her expression was pained and ashen as a result.
Yet it seemed as though she was about to go berserk.
Luckily for Wu Yu, Qu Haoyang and the rest had rushed in with gusto. Seeing that Wu Yu had managed to intercept Yu Fuyao, they quickly got into formation and continued on with their attacks that covered the skies. Even Wu Yu was almost engulfed by it.
"Kill her, but don't damage this place!" Wu Yu warned Qu Haoyang. He retreated as he anxiously glanced around. This was the Heaven Devouring Evil Residence, who knew just what would happen?
Furthermore, the egg was in his Sumeru Pouch. Now that he had appeared here, this would not be a good thing.
In front of him was the chaotic battle between Yu Fuyao of the Heavenly Seas and the Yan Dragon Army. With his Eyes of Fire and Gold, Wu Yu heaved a sigh of relief. He could feel that Yu Fuyao could not hold on for much longer. Perhaps in just another bit, she would meet the same end as Duomingshan Shengxue, a pile of ashes.
"Hmph!" Wu Yu could clearly see that she had been torn into fragments repeatedly. The black smoke around her was feeble and she was currently on her death throes.
This sight truly brought Wu Yu relief.
He glanced towards the Heaven Devouring Evil Residence. The first time he had come here, Yu Fuyao had carried something out. Perhaps it was an item that belonged to the Heaven Devouring Evil Lord that possessed a fragment of its spirit. Once it escaped, it underwent changes and possessed the Ghostly Emperor. Before it could get strong enough, it was obliterated by Luo Pin. After a period of time, it had once again regained a modicum of strength, only to be struck down.
It seemed that after so many years, this Heaven Devouring Evil Lord truly seemed to be on his last gasps.
His hopes were placed upon that egg.
However, the death of Yu Fuyao of the Heavenly Seas and the resealing of this place would lead to there being no further problems.
At this point in time, something unimaginable happened. A thick, black smoke wafted out from within the Heaven Devouring Evil Residence. It could not be hindered as it rushed into the battlefield. In a blink, it entered Yu Fuyao's body.
Cackling laughter could be heard in the vicinity of the Yan Dragon Formation's encirclement. In a flash, Yu Fuyao completely reconstituted her human form. That black smoke continued to flow into her body. At the same time, Wu Yu could see very clearly with his Eyes of Fire and Gold that her head of once-black hair had turned whitish gold. It floated in the air as her skin also became even more pale than before.
Other than the white hair, her pitch black eyes had transformed into the deepest crimson.
The sight of the white hair and blood red eyes was truly chilling. She still seemed enchanting, she exuded a visceral and bloody feel, much like a poisonous serpent.
The previous Qin Fuyao might have been devilishly beautiful, but the sort of aura and stature she possessed could never rival the likes of Princess You Xue. This vast transformation had changed her into something absolutely terrifying. She was no longer just a mere ghostly cultivator of Yan Huang Imperial City.
It was that black smoke that had caused these drastic upheavals!
"It must definitely have been something left behind by the Heaven Devouring Evil Lord to assist her!" Wu Yu hypothesized. Qu Haoyang also understood the seriousness of the situation.
It seemed that this assignment was not as easy as they had imagined.
Of course, if they had acted sooner, there might never have been a need for the situation to devolve. They would not have been placed into such a tenuous situation.
It was when Yu Fuyao had changed that Wu Yu realized that their biggest mistake was bringing in too many people!
At this point, Yu Fuyao of the Heavenly Seas let out an alluring and enchanting laugh. She transformed into black smoke which then blanketed the field, breaking past the encirclement. 10 over Yan Dragon Guards were swallowed up and, in a blink, only cries of agony could be heard! Not long after, their screams completely vanished.
Devour!
The more there were, the easier it was for her to catch them. She would become increasingly strong, and that was her scariest ability.
The previous Dong Sheng Divine Continent did not possess so many powerhouses. Thus, her maximum strength was limited. Now that there were so many soldiers, the sky was the limit.
Breaking past the encirclement, she continued to devour left and right. Yu Fuyao of the Heavenly Seas demonstrated immense strength as she flashed past like a comet, colliding heavily into a wall.
Perhaps because the force was just too great, the wall completely collapsed. Black dust and debris scattered.
Unexpectedly, these black particles actually agglomerated into a giant wild beast's face! That beast even let out a heaven-rending roar, instilling fear into all!
This was the Heaven Devouring Evil Lord!
Wu Yu could never have imagined that the Heaven Devouring Evil Residence in front of him was actually the Heaven Devouring Evil Lord's body!
His body had been turned into a wall and a palace. More correctly, a Heavenly Immortal had transformed him into such.
It was not not surprising that the egg had appeared in the palace hall. That was very likely the location of his stomach.
That egg was a new life. This Heaven Devouring Evil Residence was perhaps his old body and thus of paramount importance to him.
However, the years were unkind and five yuan of time had passed. All had decomposed and rotted away, affecting his structural foundations. Thus, even Yu Fuyao was able to cause the walls to collapse and let the beast out.
What has to be noted is this was only a small section of the wall!
At this point, the black particles rushed into Yu Fuyao of the Heavenly Seas' body. In a blink, her skin and hair turned even more white. Her eyes even more blood-like. A sense of terror could be felt in all.
Now that the situation had devolved into such a state, Wu Yu was sure that if things continued like this, the Heaven Devouring Evil Lord would indubitably escape.
In that case, the apocalypse would truly begin. Despite all his calculations, he had never imagined such a result.
"Wu Yu, hurry and leave," Ming Long urged as she saw the situation.
"No. Even if I escape, what about the rest of the people on the Dong Sheng Divine Continent? How can they escape? Besides, it's not over yet." Wu Yu was determined.
Ming Long anxiously said, "If you were to truly wait till he fully revived, the first target would be you. Your potential is great and shouldn't be squandered. Plus, if you leave the egg behind, he might not chase after you..." After speaking, Wu Yu was clearly turning a deaf ear towards her. She knew that Wu Yu would not be willing to give up. But how could he simply escape by himself?
His home, his roots, all of it was here.
At this point, Qu Haoyang and the rest realized the danger. They immediately reformed and attempted to suppress her, not allowing her to kill anyone else or to cause any more damage to the Heaven Devouring Evil Residence. Their coordination made it difficult for Wu Yu to contribute. If he were to wade into the thick of it, he would likely be injured instead.
Qu Haoyang and the rest were still extremely mighty. They had finally started to give it their all. They continuously grinded Yu Fuyao down, using the World-Cleansing Fire to ignite the remains. But they were unable to completely disintegrate Yu Fuyao this time. She always possessed a trace of vitality and refused to die.
Bang, bang, bang!
With this massive battle raging, the Yan Dragon Army would eventually slip up due to fatigue. Who would have expected that Yu Fuyao would take this opportunity to quickly reform and escape!
She regained her human form and once again crashed into a wall of the Heaven Devouring Evil Residence. Immense amounts of black dust were released and began to be absorbed into her body.
