The Purgatory Calamity-Chapter 898 - 858: Old Ape’s Unyielding Ambition

The greed and bloodlust in the Thunder Dragon’s eyes were scorching hot.

"Sizzle!"

The massive Thunder Divine Court, with its towering and majestic halls, had the traces of thunder imprinted within them suddenly linked together by an invisible hand.

A huge Thunder Vortex formed over the Thunder Divine Court, spinning gently downward like a funnel.

"Whoosh!"

The lightning at the edge of the Thunder Vortex twisted like dragons and snakes, its momentum terrifying.

"Crackle!"

Millions of thick lightning bolts from the Thunder Prison, once they entered inside the Ruin Domain, were absorbed by the funnel-like Thunder Vortex and channeled into the Thunder Pond where the Qing Se Lei Long roamed.

The slender Thunder Dragon, in the wildly frenzied center of the Thunder Pond, did not visibly grow larger.

Yet the aura it exuded still caught Yuan Yi’s attention.

"A bizarre Thunder Dragon."

Yuan Yi squinted for a closer look.

He noticed that the winding Thunder Dragon was refined from countless intricate Bloodline Crystal Chains, swallowing ferocious lightning as it instinctively sought a path to advance and transform.

"The thunderous veins within its body, as well as the Thunder Principal, seem complete."

"Pity, its Qi and Blood and vitality are too weak."

"Spiritual Intelligence..."

The Old Ape’s eyes blazed with a bloodthirsty light.

Within the depth of His pupils, a bizarre Blood Rose bloomed, its petals revealing ancient Demonic script emerging like countless stars.

"Bloodline Secret Skill, discern the spirit!"

A deep red blood light released from the Old Ape’s eyes, illuminating the Qing Se Lei Long in the air.

The Thunder Dragon in the Thunder Pond, which had been joyfully weaving through the water, suddenly froze over with blood color, its dragon eyes filled with confusion and bewilderment, like an ignorant, naive child.

"Far too different, hardly worth considering."

Yuan Yi soon lost interest, withdrew His Divine Skills, and refocused His attention on the Ruin Domain and the Boundary Wall.

"Huff! Huff huff!"

The Realm God Card He stepped on rippled with spreading blood like waves.

He tried to activate the Realm God Card with His essence blood and communicate with the few Divine Artifacts He placed outside but discovered it was impossible to connect.

The Old Ape was not worried but rather delighted and with a toothy grin said, "No wonder Pang Jian’s true body keeps asking various Realm Gods about the whereabouts of His Primordial Spirit. It turns out the Ruin Domain is completely sealed off, and before leaving, no one inside can communicate with the outside."

"If I can’t do it, neither can Pang Jian."

"So..."

The Old Ape rubbed His hands together, growing more and more excited as the malicious, murderous light in His eyes intensified.

"Without the ability to communicate with the Outer World, Mo Tian’s Robe left by Mo Tian will lack the enhancement from the Outer World Demon God, and its power will be greatly reduced. His true body isn’t aware of the Ruin Domain’s situation, and won’t rashly enter to cause disturbance."

"As for her, she is not the Realm God of the Misty Sea, and she can’t enter at all."

"Which means..."

After an inner battle, the Old Ape growled, "My opponent is Pang Jian’s Primordial Spirit!"

"If I can blast him to death in the Ruin Domain, seize Mo Tian’s Robe, and take ownership of this Thunder Pond, I and that one can certainly fight another round!"

No sooner said than done, Yuan Yi gritted His teeth and summoned His essence blood sealed within the Realm God Card.

Droplets of deep red essence blood, the instant they flew from the Realm God Card, turned into clusters of blood-colored orbs.

Within those orbs, streams of blood flowed gently, and fine blood-red lightning flashed suddenly.

"Go!"

To each star and land the Old Ape pointed, droplets of His deep red essence blood flew, entering deep into the heart of the earth, weaving and spreading His own Law of Life.

He was a High God of the Ancient Demon Clan, the strongest God of Life in this era.

In this world unoccupied by outer gods, He had ways to imprint His mark deep in stars and land ahead of time.

With those marks in place, the stars above and the land beneath, the vast Star River’s Supernatural Ability and nature’s Spiritual Energy - He would be able to summon them at will.

Just as Pang Jian gained a certain increase in combat power within the Netherworld Prison, He too was able to achieve this in the Ruin Domain.

"You whippersnapper, you’ve been a God Spirit for far too short a time and still haven’t figured out how to make good use of the right time and place. Entering a realm like this, you actually didn’t use your power to first permeate the mysteries you’ve comprehended,"

Yuan Yi mocked as he cast his spells.

...

Dark Cloud Star Region.

On one of the dead stars, Mu Qingya finally succeeded in setting up the operable octagonal array.

The silver mirror placed on the array was submerged by the spatial ripples beneath, and the nebula within the mirror was changing, establishing connections with different void domains.

"Ruin Domain!"

Upon hearing Pang Jian’s description, everyone was still immersed in shock, feeling that the Ruin Domain was definitely a good retreat.

"Pang Jian, give me at most a quarter of an hour, and I’ll be able to link our location to the region they are in,"

Mu Qingya was also somewhat nervous and said, "The place you mentioned, called Ruin Domain, is it truly an untouched realm? Inside, are there many undiscovered heavenly materials and earthly treasures?"

"I just discovered that the Ruin Domain seems to only allow Realm Gods with a Realm God Card to enter," Pang Jian said with a wry smile.

"Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh!"

Pang Jian’s true form, exercising the authority of the "First Realm God," created numerous spatial rifts in the Dark Cloud Star Region.

"Elder Mu, please hold off on connecting with those venerable seniors. I will take all the surviving Realm Gods to the Ruin Domain. I plan to hold a small gathering of Realm Gods in the Ruin Domain first," he said.

Upon uttering these words, Pang Jian’s soul-voice thoughts rang out in the God Tablets held by Bai Zi, Fahua, Xinghuan, and Yu Hang.

"There is a new realm called Ruin Domain, which presently only allows Realm Gods like us to delve deep. I intend to take you all for a thorough exploration," he communicated.

This thought immediately aroused intense curiosity from the surviving Realm Gods.

In no time, Bai Zi from the Netherworld Prison, Fahua above the Misty Sea, Xinghuan in a radiant Star River, and the always somewhat resistant Yu Hang, all arrived in this star domain through the spatial rifts.

"First Realm God, Pang Jian!"

Xinghuan and Yu Hang exclaimed, greeting Pang Jian with their respective race’s unique ceremonies as a sign of respect.

Unlike Bai Zi and Fahua, they were not familiar with Pang Jian but had seen through the God Tablet how Pang Jian had shattered the Crossing Spirit Evil God’s path to resurrection in Purgatory.

Just this alone was enough to prove Pang Jian’s exceptional combat power.

Since before their arrival, they had learned from Pang Jian that holders of God Tablets like themselves stood to gain a tremendous opportunity in this great calamity and had the chance to strive for the Dominator Realm.

It was this news that gave all the Realm Gods direction and a desire filled with anticipation.

The emergence of the Ruin Domain, and Pang Jian’s guidance at this moment, made them increasingly believe that closely following the steps of the "First Realm God" would bring them a step closer to that direction.

"Yuan Yi from the Ancient Demon Clan has already entered a step ahead; you can decide whether to go or not," Pang Jian said, pointing to the last open spatial rift.

On the other side was his Primordial Spirit Body that held the Fire Thorns Divine Realm Plaque, as well as Pang Lin, far from the spatial rift.

"I also want to explore it!"

Even the Wood Tribe’s Muduo couldn’t resist joining in.

He too made a request to Pang Jian, "This newborn ’World Tree’ temporarily doesn’t need me during its fusion process. If it truly does need me, you can also summon me from the Ruin Domain. What do you think?" ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

That most mysterious Ruin Domain World, known only to very few Realm Gods, had appeared, and everyone wanted to explore it for themselves.

Pang Jian turned his head and glanced at the verdant Divine Tree entwined around the withered "World Tree," asking telepathically, "How are you doing?"

"Very good, I feel great, and He’s not needed for a short period," Pang Ling replied.

At the heart of the robustly growing Divine Tree, the Soul Spirit form of Pang Ling was gathering pure and vigorous Qi and Blood, constructing a brand-new body for Himself using the Law of Life essence He awakened to.

This body, born out of the "World Tree," yet capable of existing independently from it, was going to have flesh and blood, unlike the initial ethereal Spiritual Body.

"Father, I will soon reach the rank of a level twelve Exotic Spirit. Just when I became a level thirteen Exotic Spirit, I died before I could settle firmly into that status," Pang Ling said excitedly.

"This time, I want to securely become a level thirteen Exotic Spirit; I want to stand tall in the star domain protected by the Wood Tribe!"

Pang Ling was overjoyed.

The Laws of Life mysteries belonging to Yuan Yi and the essence of life from God Luo that Pang Jian had selflessly passed on to Him provided Him with tremendous inspiration, allowing Him to glimpse a new path.

Just as the Black Phoenix manifested in this life as a member of the Human Race, He too was experiencing His own life’s ascension.
