The Purgatory Calamity-Chapter 892 - 852: Extinguishing the Miracle

The Star Domain of eerie stillness became increasingly tangible.

Evil God Du Ling stepped onto a massive altar made of piled bones, slowly rising from the death-ridden Kingdom of the Dead into midair, then into the void interwoven with the Law of Death.

His body continued to merge with gray-white crystalline threads, rapidly growing stronger.

Power from different desolate worlds, drawn by His guidance in a manner even Pang Jian hardly noticed, poured into His perfecting body.

His momentum climbed relentlessly, His power of death growing denser.

"Du Ling!"

"God of Death!"

"Our God!"

Great shouts came like mountains collapsing and tsunamis roaring.

It seemed that in numerous worlds, across many star domains, billions of creatures still worshipped Him after His death.

Beneath His feet, the bone altar gradually transformed into an ancient kingdom suffused with the intent of death, with many evil godly spirits manifesting in the corners of the realm.

"You should listen to me,"

Seeing Pang Jian remain silent, not continuing to display his power, Du Ling appeared even more composed.

"Once I am resurrected and become the Sovereign, the Alien Gods from Outer Space will no longer be disjointed. I promise to seek out a flourishing galaxy in the Outer Domain Galaxy for your Human Race to reside eternally."

"I promise that the True Gods of the Human Race will be righteous gods, no longer persecuted by other tribes."

"I even promise..."

This Crossing Spirit Evil God freely made many promises but never mentioned why the Divine Temple was destroyed.

Yet Pang Jian, who only wanted to know matters relating to the Divine Temple, watching His power crazily increase while He avoided serious matters, showed growing impatience on his face.

"All this babble, I might as well ask someone else then," he muttered disdainfully.

With a light snort from Pang Jian, more rivers of Qi and Blood poured in through those bloody crevices.

In this Star Domain born from Du Ling, under the massive surge of Qi and Blood, the Law of Death was annihilated, and the aura of death erased.

Du Ling’s control over the God’s Domain was also on the verge of collapse.

"No! I’m not refusing to explain, just give me a moment to catch my breath!"

The soul voice of Du Ling carried panic as He felt the imminent collapse of God’s Domain, sensing the signs of another obliteration.

...

Funeral in the Fourth Realm, in the Void Fragment Land.

"Huff!"

Three expansive shapes of Demon Gods, piercing through the thick, profound Lead Clouds, dived from the Third Realm heading straight for the massive Fragment Land where the "World Tree" was rooted.

From afar, they saw in the center of that patchwork of Fragment Lands, the "World Tree" stood towering amid a vast sea of blood.

A huge golden body, its Qi and Blood surging like tidal waves, encompassed the entire world.

Countless crimson lightning, like Spirit Snakes wildly slithering in that world, hunted deep within the bloody ocean, many gray-white crystalline threads infused with the ultimate intent of death.

In the vast sea of blood, a section of strange Star Domain, already breaking apart, suffered from the invasion of the bloody river.

"This situation..."

Black Dragon King was the first to halt His plunging dragon body.

His large dragon eyes filled with confusion, His claws capable of tearing voids unconsciously scraped, creating sudden space rifts in the Void of the Fourth Realm.

"It doesn’t seem as critical as the master said?"

Black Dragon King, having become a mid-ranking Demon God and deeply concerned for Pang Jian’s safety, had rushed down immediately upon receiving the command from the Sovereign, wishing to help Pang Jian against the so-called leader of the Evil Gods.

He thought that the Wood Tribe People below had long perished, and the "World Tree" was nearly dead.

Upon a closer look, the "World Tree" in the bloody ocean was unexpectedly radiating an unusual vitality.

Mysterious blood-red veins, like muscular fibers on the thick trunk of the "World Tree," shimmered with the luster of life, forming armor-like golden iron plates.

Deep within the tree body, a robust life force of Qi and Blood was brewing.

This "World Tree," born from the same Purgatory Gate as them and sharing their heritage, was undergoing an unimaginable transformation, seemingly shifting from a Spirit Plant, Exotic Spirit form into a type of flesh-and-blood alien life.

Among the withered flowers and plants, some lifeless warriors of the Wood Tribe were wrapped in leaves from the "World Tree," slowly waking up.

"It seems we don’t need to intervene," said Yuan Qi, towering like a mountain.

The Mysterious Turtle remained silent, instead gazing at that desolate Star Domain, looking at Pang Jian formed by the True Essence of Laws, refining Qi and Blood.

Feeling the Life Mysteries dissipating from that body, he said, "Let’s just watch for now."

At that moment,

"Hiss!"

A deep cyan sword light tore through the thick Lead Clouds, falling from above.

Within the channel ripped open by the sword light appeared Li Wang, Zhu Ji, Pu Zhaotian, and others, including Mu Qingya wielding the "Heavenly Wood Sword."

"Human Race, God Manifestation Realm!"

The Mysterious Turtle, the Black Dragon King, and Yuan Qi, upon seeing Mu Qingya, immediately recognized the tangible Sword Intent emanating from him and knew he was no ordinary figure.

"Mu Qingya!"

The Mysterious Turtle was briefly stunned, then blurted out the identity of the newcomer, exclaiming, "I hadn’t expected you to return from beyond the stars."

The Mysterious Turtle, stronger than in his prime and having regained all his memories, naturally knew of the heavy mark this Sword God had left in the history of Purgatory.

"I’ve seen you before," Mu Qingya bowed deeply, his expression sincere, "Thank you for your significant contributions to Purgatory over the years. Without your mediation, the alliance between the Human Race and you would not have been possible, and we might have been conquered by the Alien Tribes of the Fifth Realm long ago."

He genuinely respected the Old Mysterious Turtle.

"It was my duty," said the Mysterious Turtle, suddenly transforming into a human form, turning into a calm and dignified middle-aged man, "Mu Xiaozi, now that you have returned from beyond the stars, can you handle that leader of the Crossing Spirit Evil God?"

"Crossing Spirit Evil God!" Mu Qingya was shocked.

He only knew that in the Fourth Realm’s vast Fragment Land, a death force had begun to proliferate widely, unaware of where the spread of death’s stench was originating.

Upon hearing it was Crossing Spirit, a chill rose in Mu Qingya’s heart.

"Is Crossing Spirit famous in the Outer Star River?" Li Wang frowned.

"That is an Evil God who almost achieved the rank of Sovereign," Mu Qingya took a deep breath, gravely stating, "When I first left Purgatory, I had already heard of His notorious reputation. He is highly esteemed by the Alien Gods from Outer Space and the Evil Gods, having created many Kingdoms of the Dead in the Outer Domain Galaxy, intending to forge a new realm."

"Crossing Spirit..."

Mu Qingya bowed his head, his gaze falling on the blood-stained desolate Star Domain, secretly anxious for Pang Jian, "The Heavenly Wood Sword I practice, the Great Tao I pursue, are exactly suppressed by the power of Crossing Spirit."

He was in the God Manifestation Realm, now the strongest of the Human Race apart from Pang Jian, even a level higher than Zhu Ji.

Thus, Li Wang and Pu Zhaotian placed great hopes in him.

Seeing him so wary of Crossing Spirit, appearing utterly without confidence, everyone felt the pressure mount.

"Crossing Spirit wants to resurrect in Purgatory, using the newly born ’World Tree’ and the lives of Purgatory," the Mysterious Turtle’s eyes brimmed with a cold intensity, "His resurrection requires the death of countless flesh and blood creatures. If He successfully appears in this world, all creatures will die."

With these words, everyone understood just how dire the situation was.

"Pang Jian!"

Wu Yuan, Dong Tianze, and Li Yuqing, three newly ascended True Gods, also broke through the Lead Clouds, descending from the sky, appearing in the vision of both groups.

"What are you waiting for? Why not go down and slay that leader of the Evil Gods?"

Dong Tianze, who had just arrived, glanced at everyone before immediately taking the lead, charging downwards with the Bloodthirsty Blade.

"Dong Xiaozi is too reckless. A terrifying Evil God with potential to become a Sovereign, the Path of Death He propagates is not something Dong Xiaozi can meddle with!" Li Wang urgently said.

Mu Qingya cried out, "His cultivation of the Qi and Blood mysteries, also tied to the mysterious power of life, I’m actually afraid he might be utilized by Crossing Spirit!"

"That Crossing Spirit, even I am inexplicably terrified," Yuan Qi, notorious in Purgatory World for his relentless ferocity, sensed the aura of death below with his Bloodline, also feeling some trepidation.

His origin was the Old Ape, instinctively feeling the suppressive force of the resurrecting Crossing Spirit.

But, in the next moment,

"Crackle! Crackle!"

The blood-streaked ocean within that desolate Star Domain suddenly shattered, interwoven by blood-colored, ghostly lightning, the stars and Kingdoms of the Dead within it burst like bubbles.

The God’s Domain, created by Crossing Spirit, was completely inundated by blood, the sense of death erased by the Law of Life.
