Chapter 585: The Curtain Falls

"Is it over?"

Many gazes converged on the motionless devil corpse. What had happened today had far exceeded the expectations of many. No one had anticipated such a major event to unfold.

It all started when the Elder Senior Sister of the Dao Sect stormed into Yuan Gate and slew Little King Li Lei. Then, she single-handedly defeated ten Profound Life Stage elders. After that, the sect leaders showed up, and a super strong practitioner surnamed Xiao also made his appearance. He exposed Yuan Gate's secret collusion with the Yimo and their strength accumulation.

If this had erupted later, it could have potentially turned the entire East Xuan Region into a devil wasteland.

"I intentionally left you guys alive. Do you really think you can play dead?" Xiao Ming looked down at the corpse of the Cosmic Evil Devil King with an indifferent expression.

There was no response from the devil corpse below as his voice fell, not even the slightest ripple.

Xiao Ming shook his head. The life force of a Yimo King, comparable to the 2nd Calamity Reincarnation Stage, could rival that of Gu Yuan during his Nine-Star Dou Saint days. But if he really wanted to kill it, it would only be a matter of thought, and not even a corpse would be left behind.

Now, he had deliberately left a trace of life force. The fact that the other party thought he hadn't noticed was somewhat amusing.

"Zhou Tong, bring those guys over here," Xiao Ming said to Zhou Tong, who was not far away.

"Understood!"

Zhou Tong let out a cold laugh and clasped his hands. A silver light gathered in front of him and formed a huge silver crescent moon. With a flick of his finger, the crescent moon pierced through the empty space and charged violently towards the remaining devil corpse.

Whoosh!

Just as the crescent moon was about to hit the devil corpse, a flash of black light finally shot out from within and sent the crescent moon flying back. The black light then transformed into three human figures, revealing themselves to be the three Yuan Gate leaders. However, at this moment, their faces were ashen, their eyes were dull, and their aura was extremely weak.

The three leaders glared at Xiao Ming and his disciples with intense hatred. Their gazes flickered rapidly.

"How pathetic. To think that the three esteemed leaders of Yuan Gate will also learn to play dead like a dog." Zhou Tong looked at the three of them. His voice was filled with scorn and biting sarcasm.

The faces of the three leaders twitched as their eyes were filled with malice. The next moment, their bodies moved and turned into a black light that shot towards the ground. From the looks of it, they were trying to escape.

"Trying to escape?"

However, Zhou Tong merely sneered in response to their actions. He stomped his foot, and silver light swept across the surface of the ground, bouncing the three leaders back.

The strength of the three leaders had clearly plummeted at this moment. They were no longer able to contend even against Zhou Tong.

Buzz.

As the three leaders were bounced back, Xiao Ming raised his hand before they could make another move. A heavy, oppressive force pinned them to the ground and rendered them immobile.

"Speak! Where is the main stronghold of the Devil Prison?" Xiao Ming looked at the three of them and asked.

"Keep dreaming! We won't tell you anything! Ahhh!"

The three leaders felt as if they were being pierced by needles under Xiao Ming's overwhelming pressure. The suffocating sensation caused them to scream in agony. They looked at the indifferent Xiao Ming with a hint of fear in their eyes. They knew that they were unlikely to escape death today.

"Surname Xiao, do you really think that the three of us have no last resort? If you want to kill us, then let your disciples and everyone here be buried with us!" The Tian Yuanzi trio had a venomous look in their eyes as they looked at Ying Huanhuan and Qing Tan. After exchanging a glance, they all gritted their teeth.

They suddenly pressed their palms against each other as each spat out a mouthful of black blood. After which, their eyes swiftly dimmed as their bodies swelled at a frightening speed.

"Quickly withdraw!"

Zhou Tong was startled when he saw this scene and shouted in an alarmed voice. Meanwhile, Ying Huanhuan and Qing Tan grabbed hold of their Master's robe.

"Keke, it's too late. All of you shall die!"

The faces of the Tian Yuanzi trio twisted hideously. Black liquid gushed out from the surface of their bodies. Finally, they self-destructed with a loud bang!

Bang!

Indescribable Demonic Qi crazily unfurled from the bodies of the three leaders. At this critical moment, however, Xiao Ming shook his sleeve, causing all the Demonic Qi to recoil back and condense into a black bead.

"If you won't speak, then so be it. Even if you don't tell me, I already know it's somewhere in the West Xuan Region." Xiao Ming caught the black bead in his palm, took out the True King Demonic Bead, and forcefully fused them. Soon, the Demonic Bead's aura skyrocketed until it surprisingly entered the 3rd Calamity Reincarnation Stage.

Immediately, dark clouds gathered in the sky, lightning began to flicker, and a dense lightning tribulation aura began to spread throughout the area.

"What's going on? Is this a lightning tribulation?"

"Could someone be breaking through?"

"This is rather strange timing, isn't it?"

The strong practitioners who had just witnessed the death of the three leaders were stunned when they heard the thunderous noise. Before they could fully comprehend what was happening, the black clouds dissipated as quickly as they had arrived, leaving them utterly bewildered.

'Third Calamity Reincarnation Stage, huh? I wonder if I can provide enough nourishment for this thing to reach the Half-Ancestor Stage...'

Xiao Ming murmured with some uncertainty in his heart as he put away the demonic bead and looked towards Zhou Tong, Ying Xuanzi, and the others.

"Senior..."

"No need to rush. Catch up with each other first," Xiao Ming gestured for Zhou Tong and the others to take their time with their reunion.

They didn't say much more and followed his suggestion. Only Wang Jie looked at Xiao Ming with mixed emotions. It seemed like she wanted to say something but couldn't bring herself to speak. In the end, she remained silent.

Shortly after, Zhou Tong returned to Xiao Ming's side. He respectfully cupped his hands, and then a gentle white light emerged from his body and floated in front of Xiao Ming.

"The Spatial Ancestral Symbol is a priceless divine object. Are you really willing to give it up?" Xiao Ming raised an eyebrow.

"Senior, although I've been protected by the Spatial Ancestral Symbol over these years, I've been eroded by the Demonic Qi. The Ancestral Symbols are natural divine objects and they despise the Demonic Qi. The current me is no longer qualified to possess it. Senior's cultivation is profound and has given me a second chance at life. This Spatial Ancestral Symbol should rightfully belong to Senior. Moreover, it should be able to exert an even greater effect in Senior's hands," Zhou Tong said respectfully.

"Since that's the case, I accept it." Xiao Ming was already quite interested in the Eight Ancestral Symbols and naturally wouldn't refuse.

A cluster of silver light was held in Xiao Ming's hand, and with ripples of energy, the Spatial Ancestral Symbol smoothly and gradually merged into his body without much fuss.

With the integration of the Spatial Ancestral Symbol, Xiao Ming seemed to have gained a different understanding of space, something he would have to study further.

"The Yimo Tribe is on the rise again, and the great world calamity is about to repeat itself. The Yuan Gate conspired with those fiends to wreak havoc in this East Xuan Region. Although I have eradicated them, there may still be some Yimo remnants causing trouble..."

Xiao Ming's words caused great tension among the people of the East Xuan Region. Each of them was thinking about what to do next.

They had just witnessed the tremendous strength of the Yimo. Despite the seeming lack of resistance in front of Xiao Ming, the Yimo that was finally annihilated was not a foe they could face on their own.

In such a situation, it was undoubtedly a wise choice to cling to the thigh of this Senior who had just resolved the threat of the Yimo.
