The hero's path
[EPILOGUE]Six years later.Mu Continent, Isle of Immortals.It was mid-spring. Flowers bloomed everywhere, spirit energy floating visibly in the air.A far cry from what it was during the war.The isle had regained its past glory, its aura of holiness. Even better than it used to be in its peak.Murong Wuque stood in a pavilion, facing the waterfall.His face was still handsome, his hair still silver, but a heaviness had settled around him. Before, it was just his cold demeanor.Now, it was constant mourning.His eyes were empty as he stared into the distance.“Father,” a cold, youthful voice called.Murong Wuque turned. A boy of six or seven stood there, dressed in white traditional celestial realm robes, jade and silver ornaments in his hair, holding a sheathed white sword.Young, but his eyes held a depth and responsibility far beyond his age.“Aurelio.” Murong Wuque answered, a small smile appearing on his face.“The party has started. The leaders are waiting for you.”Murong Wuq

Earth. Four months after the war began.Alvin stood on the roof of a half-burned building, overlooking the chaos below.The world before him was nothing like the prosperous Earth he once knew, with its towering skyscrapers and opulent cities.The stench of death permeated the air. Countless bodies lay among the wounded, while farther away, corpse soldiers stretched as far as the eye could see, numbering in the thousands.Tiffany rushed toward him. Her clothes, made from special bulletproof and fire-resistant materials, were torn in several places. Blood matted her forehead, and soot covered her face. Her lips were chapped and dry.“Boss, this is the last remnant of the Nightblood organisation. However, we don't have enough resources.”Alvin's eyes were empty, desolate as he stared at the approaching army.He had lost seventy-four percent of his soldiers. At first, everything had gone well. He hadn't expected another traitor to be hiding among his ranks, but the betrayal had turned the
A sacrifice too heavy to bear
The moment Murong Wuque finished speaking, red nets appeared around Ruoshuan, encircling him from every direction.While putting on his angry display, he had been busy laying traps.Murong Ruoshuan froze for a moment. The next instant, he sneered and stomped directly on the net, shattering the trapping formation.“You're just a divine emperor. I'm currently the equivalent of an immortal emperor. Stronger than normal immortal emperors. Do you think a petty trick like this is enough to restrain me?”The moment he finished speaking, lasers shot from his eyes, streaking straight toward Murong Wuque.Murong Wuque produced a shield and deflected the attack with twice its original force.The moment the two attacks collided, a deafening explosion tore through the hall, blowing away the decking and roof.Statues and structures crumbled as numerous mechanisms were triggered in the ensuing destruction.Amid the chaos, Murong Wuque's companions moved instantly.Su Mei and Qin Li attacked the two
Meeting Nightblood’s supreme leader.
Mu Continent — Isle of Immortals “Is this still the Isle of Immortals?” Qin Li shuddered as they crouched behind a shrub near the Hall of Legends. Their remaining spy had directed them here to intercept the supreme leader, who was currently meeting with his grand council. The entire isle reeked of blood. They had entered the inner isle through a secret chamber Murong Wuque had excavated in his teenage years, a passage known only to him. But the stench of blood and the oppressive dark energy were only the beginning. Demons had overrun the isle. Their presence smothered the once-holy aura, corrupting everything that had made this place sacred. Restoring its purity would take nothing short of a miracle. The demons had claimed the finest territories, with high-ranking vampire-demons occupying the most prestigious areas. The original inhabitants had been driven into dungeons or forced to hide in scattered corners of Mu Continent. To Murong Wuque's bitter shame, he had managed to e
Meeting Jian Li Chen again
Everyone exchanged glances. To reach the Isle of Immortals from Ascension Continent, they would have to cross the Valley of the Fallen Kings and traverse the Volcanic Gorge, braving its fire and poison. Worse, Nightblood had mounted detection arrays throughout the area to monitor movement. They had tried before, but crossing that route without sacrificing ninety percent of their men had proved impossible. They had decided to deal with the imminent threats first, leaving that route for later. Now that their only solution was to cut the rot out at its source, they faced the same dilemma all over again. “The only option is to cross the Ice Sea Canal and pass through Sword Heaven Continent. But the Jian Clan has blocked every route into and out of the continent.” Murong Wuque sighed. Sword Heaven Continent had been among the worst-affected places in the Celestial Realm. The Jian Clan heir had slaughtered every clan elder, student, and disciple suspected of carrying dark energy. He h
An enemy closer than expected.
Celestial Realm — Three Months Later Ascension Continent Base Twelve Deep beneath a military base, a vast underground chamber glowed with the light of crystals lining its walls. Murong Wuque stood before a carved stone table, a giant map spread across its surface. Seven people occupied the chamber. None looked as composed as they once had. Even Murong Wuque had dust and dried blood clinging to the hem of his combat uniform. He massaged his temples, exhaustion weighing heavily on him. Around the table stood Su Mei, Zhang Xiao Wei, Yang Yang, Qin Li, Shi Yue, and a disciple of Jade Palace who had risen to the rank of captain thanks to his contributions to the three-month war and his exceptional espionage work. “The only way to reach the Isle of Immortals on Mu Continent is through Jian Clan's Sword Heaven Continent,” Qin Li muttered, studying the map. Since the war began, they had managed to clear every anomaly from Tian Luo Continent and Blue River Celestial Isle, as well as pa
