I'm bound to the World-Destroying Witch

Chapter 645. Empress: I said...
Stars gather and disperse, time suddenly stops.

The intense push made Xia Feng stagger forward two steps. His pupils widened in astonishment, and before he could react, he found himself standing on a golden staircase.

Countless illusory, pale gold tiers ascended one after another, like a stairway to the heavens to pay homage to the divine.

He stiffly raised his head and looked up.

as predicted.

Above the heavens, there truly is a magnificent temple perched amidst the dazzling starry sky, serene and majestic, like a celestial temple that has survived from the ancient wilderness to the present day, vast and boundless.

This is indeed an ancient celestial staircase for those who come to pay homage to the divine authority.

Xia Feng felt a chill run down his spine, and his whole body tensed up.

He naturally recognized where this place was.

Temple of Apocalypse!

The temple was featured on the covers of many of the empire's textbooks.

However, the cover image lacks a lot of detail and is far less impactful than the immersive experience of being there in person.

The exact origins of the Temple of Apocalypse are no longer verifiable.

It is said that the temple already existed during the chaotic medieval period before the empire unified the world, and was owned by Princess Tianwu.

Afterwards, Princess Tianwu successively conquered Qianyuan, Dali, Dashang, and the Three Saints Kingdom, ending the 50,000-year-old imperial era and establishing the Zhongting Empire.

However, after the empire was established, Empress Tianwu gradually faded from the historical stage.

The imperial throne in the central courtyard remained vacant for a full ten thousand years.

Of course, these are not the main points.

The key point is that Empress Tianwu was indeed transformed from the remnant soul of the Dragon God.
At this moment, he was forcibly teleported to the Temple of Apocalypse by the trap set by the remnant soul of the Dragon God, arriving at the territory of the eighth remnant soul.

Thinking of this, Xia Feng instantly realized that the mysterious being who had helped him escape was actually the bald nun Mi Liu.

While pretending to chase him and put pressure on him, Mi Liu secretly guided him into the teleportation trap.

As for that colossal gate standing on the seabed, it should be the legendary "Star Gate".

The Empire's war portals are divided into district-level portals, domain-level portals, forbidden portals, and the most powerful astral portals.

The Empress spared no expense in opening the Star Gate to capture him, truly sparing no effort.

"Buzz—" At the same time, Xia Feng's heart pounded, and he quickly activated the pale seal deep within his soul.

The Dragon God said that as long as the Eighth Incarnation gets close to him, the Dragon God can use the Pale Seal as a medium to establish a link with the remnant soul and merge the memories of the Eighth Incarnation! In this way, he can indirectly escape the sealed land and have a physical body in the real world.

Now that the eighth incarnation has taken the initiative to come to him, Xia Feng dares not hesitate.

To his dismay, two seconds passed and the pale seal showed no reaction whatsoever.

The seal seems to have failed?
Xia Feng frowned and looked around. Was it because of the Temple of Apocalypse?

No wonder the Eighth Incarnation went to great lengths to bring him to the Temple of Apocalypse; he probably wanted to use the Temple of Apocalypse's protection to cause trouble for him.

Xia Feng couldn't help but sigh, and looked up at the majestic temple again.

Following his gaze, the ancient heavenly gate of the temple opened slightly, and the door slowly opened behind it.

A soft, golden light, like that of the morning glow, emanated from it.

At the same time, Xia Feng found that his legs were lifting up against his will, step by step, from the bottom of the golden steps to the sky above, onto the path to the audience.

Xia Feng tried to resist, but found that all his methods were futile and ineffective.

This is a complete and utter crushing defeat.

He was completely convinced and too lazy to resist anymore, and soon arrived at the magnificent divine gate. Beside the gate stood a solemn knight, tall and majestic, with a holy white O-shaped mark engraved between his eyebrows.

The knight rested his hands on the sacred greatsword in front of him, his eyes closed as if he were lifeless.

Xia Feng narrowed his dark eyes. Although he didn't know who this person was, he could clearly feel that the oppressive aura emanating from this person was a hundred times more terrifying than that of Mi Liu.

Just by staring at him, Xia Feng felt a faint stinging pain in his pupils.

At the same time, his legs had already uncontrollably stepped into the gate.

"Buzz—" The three-thousand-meter-high Heavenly Gate suddenly closed, and Xia Feng inexplicably felt a powerful force directly pressing down on his soul. A golden light filled his vision, and he narrowed his dark eyes and raised his hand to block the light.

When the divine light dissipated, what remained was a vast and desolate world.

In the center of heaven and earth, there was nothing else but a pale dragon whose entire body Xia Feng could barely see even with his head tilted back!

He coiled his long, serpentine body and occupied this world. Due to his enormous size, the world seemed unable to contain his divine form.

It makes the vast universe seem somewhat cramped and insignificant.

Xia Feng swallowed hard, activated his Deconstruction Eye, and strained to see into the distance. Only then did he pierce through the layers of thin golden clouds and his gaze reach the vast clouds above.

The pale dragon's head rests on the clouds, its long horns like peaks, and on either side of the dark gold holy cross between its brows, its eyes are serenely closed, as if it has fallen into eternal slumber.

Good heavens, this is the first time he has ever seen a complete true dragon body.

In his shock, Xia Feng felt the pressure on his soul surge to an unprecedented peak, causing his knees to tremble uncontrollably. The thought of prostrating himself and worshipping the pale dragon arose in his mind.

"Buzz—" However, as the character [Si] on the soul seal flashed by, the terrifying feeling that almost made him collapse quickly subsided.

"Phew—" Xia Feng's heart, which had been in his throat, slowly calmed down, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

However, he also noticed that on the pale dragon's head, the long, winding horns outlined with divine golden patterns formed a gilded, high-backed divine throne.

The woman, dressed in a dark gold imperial dress, rested her elbows on the armrest, propped her delicate chin on it, closed her eyes, and languidly leaned back.

Xia Feng's dark pupils suddenly contracted, and in a daze, it seemed as if the person on the imperial throne was Miss Evil Dragon.

They have the exact same appearance, stunning beauty, and majestic presence.

However, this Empress and Miss Evil Dragon are actually quite different.

The Empress's left eye lacked the pale dragon scale embellishment, but her hair, styled in a high bun with a gold hairpin, was the same soft, cloud-gray color as the Evil Dragon Lady's.

However, upon closer inspection of their appearance, one can still discover that the temperament of the Empress Dowager is even more chilling and icy.

The dark gold imperial dress added to its majestic and noble feel.

Is this the eighth incarnation of the Dragon God's remnant soul?
Just as Xia Feng was observing the woman on the throne, she seemed to notice him with her lowered eyes and slowly raised them.

Those pale, vertical pupils, so familiar to Xia Feng, like a sacred abyss, swept over him, their divine voice vast and resonant, cold and majestic:
"Xia Feng, do you still remember what I said?"

What did you say? Xia Feng pondered. What did you say?

"Huh?" He blinked, expressing his confusion with a single word.

"."

The Empress never expected that Xia Feng would completely disregard her words and be so arrogant!

This awakening.

Two of the pillars of the state who had followed her in her early years to conquer all directions perished, and the empire she had personally built had long since been turned upside down and was out of her control.

To regain control of the empire, the arrogant followers of this entity became the key.

But that doesn't mean the other party has the right to be disrespectful in front of her!
