The Purgatory Calamity
Chapter 833 - 793

Chapter 833: 793

"Youngster of the Human Race, even you dare to challenge me now?"

Yuan Yi bared his teeth and grinned fiercely.

His fangs, as if smeared with fresh blood, protruded beyond his lips and instilled fear at a glance.

His Demon Pupils, too, like blood-dyed suns, exuded an eerie and terrifying aura.

But...

His gigantic demon body, towering and imposing, suddenly quivered after his clamorous outburst, the frightening light within his Demon Pupils dimming slightly.

For he saw another world forcibly emerging in his Spirit Sea of Consciousness, revealing numerous mystical phenomena.

In that world, eighteen Mid-Rank Demon Gods first appeared, many of whom were familiar to him!

Eighteen Demon Gods, emanating countless clusters of vile Demon Thoughts, evoked fear, resentment, jealousy, and anguish in beings, making one inevitably immerse in extreme emotions.

At the same time, countless disordered thoughts filled his heart like a sea.

His clear Soul Sea of Consciousness was instantly filled with filth, thoughts not of his own will, making him feel for a moment as if his soul was in disarray.

"Whoosh!"

His blood-colored Soul Sea of Consciousness gradually turned a murky shade.

This caused the connection between him and his demon body to suddenly stagnate, and those well-rehearsed bloodline mysteries felt slightly awkward when performed again.

"Ancient Demon Clan, Yuan Yi."

A voice sounded.

Gray, silver, deep blue, black—disordered thoughts suddenly solidified into a figure.

It was a spectral Pang Jian!

This Pang Jian, standing in a gray murky sea, seemed like the sovereign of a bizarre world, staring coldly at him.

"The Black Phoenix has awakened in Purgatory, and its path to Nirvana Rebirth has officially begun. In those days, you were but an insignificant exotic ancient ape under his command, even forced to give your essence blood to him."

"I heard that in one epoch, a powerful clan can only have one Sovereign, could this be true?"

"If he were to come back to life and regain the Sovereign power first, would there be any hope for you, Yuan Yi?"

Pang Jian asked with a sneer.

This was tormenting Yuan Yi’s heart, breaking his staunch shield in the sharpest way!

"Resurrection? Impossible! He absolutely cannot resurrect successfully!" Yuan Yi suddenly burst into rage, howling hysterically.

He clawed wildly, seemingly at random, tearing terrifying rifts in the void.

"His era has long passed, in this era it should be I, Yuan Yi, to become the new leader of the Ancient Demon Clan! Youngster, since you seek to provoke me in this manner, then I shall grant your wish!"

"Howl!"

In the center of that fragmented land, the Sky-supporting Giant Ape bellowed furiously.

From his robust and enormous demon body started a surging, tumultuous tide of blood-colored energy, spreading outward in all directions.

There was blood filling the sky, and also blood seeping deep into the heart of the earth, severing the underlying Spirit Veins, strangling the fundamental laws of this world.

"Booming!"

Intrinsic, ancient laws seemed to be collapsing.

The sound of the Great Tao shattering, cracked the void’s rifts, leading numerous lights from the Outer Realm into this world.

The pure Spiritual Energy of nature in the Nether Hell World, as those Outer Realm lights flooded in, became impure, mixed with too many bizarre forces.

In those strange energies, Qi and Blood occupied a large proportion!

This fearsome old ape, a nuisance to all four Sovereigns across the Misty Sea, was now forcibly altering the cosmic order of the Nether Hell World using his manipulative power!

To his dominion, a piece of land turned into a blood-red territory, piling up with flesh!

This God Tablet began to exert tremendous suppressive force on all beings of the Nether Hell World.

"Thump! Thump, thump!"

The heartbeats of the beings here, whether of the Nether Tribe, Demon Clan, Ghost Clan, or Ancient Demon Clan, all sped up.

In another space, hovering in the high sky above this ruthless old ape’s head, a blend between reality and illusion, an old world manifested, filled with ferocious and immense Ancient Demons.

In the bloody milieu, a mammoth constructed entirely of gold, radiating dazzling golden light, approached with its hooves stepping on stars.

A majestic Kylin, its body constantly ejecting lightning, its eyes cold and commanding, as if scrutinizing the beings of the Nether Hell World from another world, possibly seeking to truly appear.

There was a white jade-like elk, its body flowing with patterns of water light, resembling a Supreme God who ruled many secret realms of water.

And a massive toad, swallowing the sun with its mouth, revealing a satisfied expression.

Dozens of ancient demons, diverse in form yet powerful in aura, seemed in the world behind Yuan Yi to be beginning to materialize.

——As if together with that world!

"Crack!"

The land Yuan Yi was stepping on could no longer withstand His earth-shattering power and finally cracked completely.

The largest landmass of the Netherworld Prison instantly broke into nine fragments, splitting apart in the deep sea.

The Old Ape’s furry hand fiercely slapped his own forehead, causing his skull to crack sharply and his hand bones to burst blood.

"Bang! Bang Bang!"

The self-mutilating heavy blow produced a deep, resounding boom.

The sound was amplified dozens of times in His deep soul sea!

"Rumble! Boom Boom Boom!"

In the Old Ape’s blood-red spirit sea of consciousness, there were mountains made of blood and bone, rising with roars that shook all living creatures.

A full forty-nine!

Forty-nine towering mountains of blood and bone stood in the Old Ape’s spirit sea of consciousness, emitting an evil vitality and infusing His spirit sea of consciousness with sinister power.

The peaks, glowing with blood, suddenly turned into something akin to red agate, interwoven densely with streaks of bloody lightning.

Kylin, Giant Elephant, Bone Snake, Giant Dragon, Phoenix, Luan Bird, Ancient Bear—terrifying gods of old from the river of time manifested within those mountains of blood and bone!

The forty-nine most powerful high-ranking Demon Gods in the history of the Ancient Demon Clan were all revealed within those blood and bone mountains.

No one knew by what means Yuan Yi managed to imprint these deceased high-ranking Demon Gods in His Blood Bone Mountains in such a manner.

The Old Ape, born in the Mist Sea Demon Prison, harbored grand ambitions and an ambition that transcended all demons!

He planned to gather the true essence of all high-ranking Demon Gods’ bloodlines within His own body to help Him surpass the Black Phoenix and make Him the strongest Sovereign in the history of the Ancient Demon Clan!

The Netherworld Prison shall from now on become the Demon Prison.

He who is the Sovereign of the Mist Sea will also be the revered Sovereign within the Outer Star River and in all realms of the Ancient Demon World!

"The feat that the Black Phoenix could not accomplish shall be realized by me, Yuan Yi."

"To be Sovereign, is just my first step!"

Within the forty-nine Blood Bone Mountains, the forty-nine high-ranking Demon Gods that had been revealed, all shrouded in bloodlight, issued a roar that shocked the Mist Sea and the Outer Star River.

"Ao!"

A roar obliterated the malevolent will of eighteen Demon Gods.

It also obliterated the thoughts and imprints of the Nether Tribe mingled by Pang Jian, clearing this expanse of blood-red spirit sea of consciousness.

Pang Jian, who commanded a dazzling star river, was also hurt by this soul roar, with the star river evolving behind Him abruptly collapsing.

"What a savage and brutal Old Ape!"

"Why did you provoke Him? Among the four great Sovereigns, His power is the strongest; why did you cross Him?"

"He has collected the essence of forty-nine high-ranking Demon Gods, either through drops of blood that survived those Demon Gods in the world or through direct descendants left by those Demon Gods."

"He even deciphered the true essence of the bloodlines awakened by those high-ranking Demon Gods; His aspirations are even greater than those of the Black Phoenix!"

"..."

All eighteen Demon Gods felt fear, continually lamenting to Pang Jian.

These Demon Gods, with their true names inscribed on the Demonic Robe, feared Pang Jian might turn on them with the terrifying thunderbolts of Thunder Pond, and they feared being instigated again to strike at Yuan Yi, only to be slain by Yuan Yi instead.

After the strike, Pang Jian hovered in the Netherworld Prison’s midair.

Although there were thousands of miles between him and that terrible Old Ape, both felt as though they could bridge the distance in the blink of an eye.

Using that Demonic Robe and offering the powerful Soul Skills he had comprehended recently, Pang Jian who failed to inflict heavy damage on Yuan Yi was also intimidated by Yuan Yi’s formidable presence.

He suddenly calmed down.

He had just advanced to the God Manifestation Realm in an unprecedented way and was not familiar with this realm’s conditions.

Even as fierce as he was, he was just a newly-promoted High God, with the boon of the Demonic Robe and many mysteries enhancing him, only a bit more powerful than a regular High God.

But who was Yuan Yi?

He was an Ancient Demon God born from the Demon Prison of the heavens, who had roamed the Mist Sea World for many years, lingering in the High God domain indefinitely.

Yuan Yi’s combat prowess was only second to the four great Sovereigns!

In the world outside the Netherworld Prison, His true power would even surpass that of Long Di.

Pang Jian adjusted his mindset, pondered for a few seconds, then suddenly shouted, "Long Di!"

...
