The Purgatory Calamity
Chapter 795 - 757 Black and White Phoenix

Chapter 795: Chapter 757 Black and White Phoenix

Time elapsed, and the two wondrous realms within the Misty Sea were in the midst of tremendous upheaval.

Forces led by Yuan Yi clashed fiercely with the Nether Tribe strongmen headed by Long Di in the Netherworld Prison.

Meanwhile, in Purgatory, under the scrutiny of the Alien Gods from Outer Space, all the True Gods submerged themselves in self-forgetful enlightenment of new realms, attempting to break through in a short time.

Pang Jian was no exception.

He, in the Fifth Realm cloaked in that pitch-black Demonic Robe, used his connection with the Ming Yu Soul Sea to pursue the Great Tao of Chaos Truths day and night without rest.

His Primordial Spirit within the Sea of Souls wandered continuously, absorbing the vast mysteries of the souls.

Every day, every moment, every second, both aspects of him were honing their cultivation.

Occasionally, when he heard the call of the Source Demon from the Outer Demon Domain, he would divert a bit of attention there.

He would alter the Great Tao Laws of a Demon Realm, transforming one under his control into a power source for the Source Demon, assisting it in using the "Original Demon Fusion Spell" to devour and merge with its rivals, gaining strength more quickly in preparation for the eventual confrontation with the Original Demon.

As for the Seventh Realm, he chose to temporarily ignore the war between the Black Phoenix and Luo Hongyan.

He had come to understand that Dominion-class battles were unlikely to end quickly; it was better to seize the opportunity to elevate himself as much as possible to qualify for future involvement.

In this way, he gradually felt his True Body becoming more solidified in the Middle-level God realm.

His understanding of the mysteries of chaos, his development of the many mysteries within, and his profound enlightenment of the soul’s profundities were all propelling him towards a higher God Spirit rank.

Because he was on the right path, he was not in a hurry.

...

The current Panshi Fragment Land was situated high above in the sky of the First Realm, even nearer to the heavens than other lands.

The "Nine Heavens Thunder God Tree" had grown to nine thousand Zhang, its branches and leaves incredibly lush, and the bountiful fruit it bore had all been consumed by Pang Lin to enhance her realm and cultivation.

Beneath the Divine Tree, Pang Lin had been sitting in meditation for a very long time.

Her breaths seemed to be able to stir the roaming lightning in the sky through the "Nine Heavens Thunder God Tree".

At times, streaks of lightning would pass through the "Heaven Forbidden" and be absorbed by this Divine Tree.

"Sss! Ssssss!"

As Pang Lin’s thoughts surged, streaks of delicate lightning flickered into existence around her.

The silver lightning, as if cleaving through the void, contained otherworldly glimmers zipping by, seemingly capable of taking Pang Lin to any thunderous place between heaven and earth.

That day.

Pang Lin suddenly stood up, flew to the forehead of the dying Old Dragon, and gazed deeply at the Old Thunder Dragon.

After a lengthy consumption of flesh and blood, the Dragon Blood, vital essence, and Bloodline Crystal Chain inside Long Xiao, along with various insights into the Thunder Principal, were nearly exhausted by the "Nine Heavens Thunder God Tree".

He was now hanging onto life by only the final thread of vitality.

Seeing Pang Lin approaching, Long Xiao opened his eyes, asked weakly, "Is it time?"

Knowing his end was imminent, he felt a sense of relief, as if he were about to be liberated. After a moment of thought, he asked carefully, "Did you get my drop of essence blood?"

Pang Lin nodded.

His dragon eyes brightened slightly, then he asked, "The Spirit Spell you mentioned, the secret skill that could use my drop of essence blood to help a Demon God like myself be reborn, have you... mastered it?"

Pang Lin nodded gently again.

Long Xiao suddenly became anxious, pondered for a while, and then asked his final question, "Then, are you willing to resurrect me in the future?"

"Long Xiao, do you really want to live once more?" Pang Lin asked in a strange tone.

Her tone was lofty, as if coming from some infinitely high place beyond the heavens, like a divine whisper of an ancient God Spirit.

But her divine voice spread through the many Divine Temples where she was worshiped within the Star Domain.

Upon hearing this, Long Xiao was bewildered.

He looked at Pang Lin, confused, feeling that this seemingly frail and simple girl had suddenly become so distant and odd.

In the past, this girl would address him as "Old Dragon" or that "Senior," always with a hint of respect.

And now she called him directly by his name.

Could it be that power and cultivation really could change someone so drastically in such a short time?

As he pondered this, Long Xiao saw two peculiar items in Pang Lin’s eyes that made him feel strange.

They were two Phoenixes, one black and one white.

The white one was dazzling and pure, the black one mysterious and majestic.

The black and white Phoenixes, each residing in the depths of Pang Lin’s left and right pupils, were like deep brands etched into her soul, only occasionally manifesting when she was sufficiently powerful.

"Ugh!"

The Dragon Heart, Dragon Soul, and blood of Long Xiao were all trembling.

The black Phoenix made Him feel incredibly insignificant, inducing feelings of inferiority and shame.

As for the white one, it was clearly the Bright Phoenix He was familiar with, once the strongest Demon God in the Purgatory World and His most powerful opponent who He had conspired against with the Human True God.

"You..."

Unable to move a muscle, pierced through by the "Nine Heavens Thunder God Tree," Long Xiao instinctively felt fear and opened his mouth to attempt a roar, trying to get Old Black Turtle’s attention.

"Long Xiao, it’s all over now. Farewell on your journey."

Pang Lin stretched out her small hand and pressed it onto His massive forehead.

"Boom!"

A muffled thunderous boom erupted from Long Xiao’s mind, eradicating all that remained of the Old Thunder Dragon.

The rampaging and brutal leader of the Dragon Race finally met his glorious and protracted end at the hands of Pang Lin.

With the extinction of his Dragon Soul, his flesh and vitality were completely drawn out by the "Nine Heavens Thunder God Tree," leaving only a gleaming skeleton of a dragon atop the tree’s crown.

"Whoosh!"

Old Black Turtle arrived upon hearing the news.

He looked at Long Xiao, now reduced to a skeleton, with a wistful gaze, and then glanced at Pang Lin, who had just retracted her hand.

An odd sense of familiarity suddenly emerged within Old Black Turtle.

The Bright Heaven Phoenix, known to him, who had once led the glory of the Ancient Demon Clan in Purgatory, seemed to increasingly merge with Pang Lin in front of him.

"Back then, when He transformed into a human, did He look like this? It feels somewhat similar, yet not quite right. Perhaps I’m too old, or maybe my memory isn’t clear because my Bloodline hasn’t broken through..."

Old Black Turtle was swamped with thoughts.

He just stared blankly at Pang Lin, unable to truly discern.

Standing on a leaf adorned with thunder patterns, Pang Lin had the black and white Phoenix marks in her eyes already disappeared, a mysterious smile curling on her lips as she said to Old Black Turtle, "Now that Long Xiao is dead, a new strand of destiny, belonging to the Ancient Demon Clan, has emerged. Aren’t you going to merge and find yourself?"

"The destinies in the Upper Realm are unique, Rock Bear has become a Demon God, and I can’t go back," Old Black Turtle replied with a bitter smile.

"When will you start to truly think for yourself? The Ancient Demon Clan is the Ancient Demon Clan, and you are you. The day you can rise above your clan, you’ll have a broader future," Pang Lin frowned slightly and said softly, as the black and white Phoenixes appeared briefly in her eyes, "In the Lower Realm, there is another power that can help you ascend to Demon God status, and that path suits you as well."

"To become a Demon God, then truly awaken and live for yourself after that?"

"Other matters have nothing to do with you, and you are under no obligation. Even if the Ancient Demon Clan of Purgatory perishes, the Ancient Demon Clan outside and the Star River Zhouyu is still operating normally."

"Old Black Turtle, go."

Pang Lin, with a bewitching tone, forcefully shifted Old Black Turtle’s will, enlightening Him as if experiencing a sudden "revelation."

"Oh, I have other paths. Yes, I have other options..."

Old Black Turtle murmured to himself.

After a while, he thus left Panshi Fragment Land in a daze, transforming into a streak of grayish-yellow light, plummeting towards the world below.

...

"Long Xiao is dead!"

"A new Demon God position has been vacated!"

"A change of power is coming for the Ancient Demon Clan of Purgatory!"

Similar voices of shock came from different regions of Purgatory.

"Splash!"

Shortly after Old Black Turtle’s departure from Panshi Fragment Land, Ice Armor Eel Dragon burst out of the lake and headed straight for the Saint Spirit Continent of the Second Realm.

...

At the Misty Sea leading to Absolute Sky Forbidden Land,

Yuan Qi, transformed into a human, had just crossed the vast gray mist into Purgatory World when he acutely felt a strange and strong attraction towards an unclaimed force.

It symbolized the destiny of a Demon God, and he was qualified to absorb it!

"Heaven helps me!"

Yuan Qi grinned and without any hesitation, rushed towards the Saint Spirit Continent, home to numerous Demon Race powerhouses, ready to join the battle for the Demon God position.
