I'm bound to the World-Destroying Witch

Chapter 837. The mountains and rivers trembled!

But he no longer cared about any of that.

Even if the past is a lie, he still wants to go and see for himself!

Hardships may be difficult to overcome, but the path is still under our feet.

As he took another step, ascending to the heavens, the celestial staircase crumbled layer by layer, starlight transformed into a gentle breeze, and thunder condensed into rain and dew, all of which surged into his heart.

Ice crystals suddenly grew on Xia Feng's spine. This was not a manifestation of cold, but an alienation caused by the pain exceeding its critical point. He sensed his shadow twisting into the shape of chains in the lightning, each link a solidified representation of a regretful moment in his life.

As the chains began to tighten, he could clearly see each strand of his hair disintegrating at the molecular level, and time seemed to stand still.

He cannot perceive the existence of the concept of time, and can only despair and self-destruct in endless nothingness. This infinitely prolonged process of destruction is the most extreme and cruel punishment.

But at this moment, nothing could stop him anymore. His steps, which were initially unsteady and trembling, gradually became heavy, steady, and powerful.

He even had the energy to spare a wisp of his mind to sense the location of the Moon Red Carp.

"Master, you're finally awake!" Yue Hongli's urgent voice rang out. "After you entered a state of being in a daze, your clone fell into a deep sleep. I had no choice but to end the exploration of the Calamity Land ahead of schedule and head to the Divine Sun Canyon."

Xia Feng's heart sank: "The past few days?"

"Nine days."

"!" That means we've reached the planned 25th day!
He asked in a hoarse, deep voice, "How is the situation?"

"It is impossible to observe the specific progress of Jin Yangtian or the Black Moon Pope's comprehension."

Yue Hongli quickly explained in her mind, "But half an hour ago, Jin Yangtian suddenly stopped comprehending and used some kind of secret communication technique to reach the real world."

A message? Xia Feng was puzzled, but then a sudden realization dawned on him.

It's a temporary exit card!

The level 3 cards that appear in the store, besides the "Extraterrestrial Descent" card, also have the reverse effect of "Temporarily Leave the Boundary".

The real use of the Temporary Departure Card for Jin Yangtian and the others is to teleport them out immediately after obtaining the Ember Sun Divine Realm! This prevents the possibility of it being stolen by a joint force in future battles!

Furthermore, some being from the outside world, whether it be Shang Jue or another god-level being, might very well declare war on the Temple of Apocalypse after obtaining the Jinyang Divine Realm.

Attack Empress Tianwu!
"—!" His mind went blank, and a surge of cold, bloody rage welled up in his throat like arrows, but he managed to keep his composure and his steps remained steady. He did not retreat an inch under the force of the repulsion.

Don't panic, stay calm! He breathed a sigh of relief, looked up at the Heavenly Gate in the clouds, and took another step. Each step was like Pangu treading the earth, and the heavens and earth resounded.

At the same time, he controlled his clone to transmit his thoughts to Huang Zhaoyue: "Time is of the essence, answer me! Are you faster or is Jin Yangtian faster? How much longer will Jin Yangtian need?"

The black-and-white female figure paused for a moment, then opened her eyes in confusion. Although she didn't understand what was wrong with Xia Feng, she still quickly answered as instructed: "With the help of past experience, he is still faster. He will probably need another half day, which is much faster than expected. I will need another three days."

long time!

Xia Feng looked at the remaining 10% of the Heavenly Road ahead, took a deep breath, and thought that success depended on this one move!

"boom--"

"boom--!"

As he reached a higher vantage point, each step he took caused a tremor in the surrounding area. As three or four hours passed, this tremor became increasingly clear, and the people in the distant Divine Sun Canyon finally sensed the anomaly.

Each of them looked up at the sky.

Jin Yangtian frowned, forced to interrupt his final comprehension. He looked up in confusion. After entering a state of enlightenment, his spiritual sense and five senses were actually exceptionally sharp. Half a day ago, he had sensed the abnormal movement of the world's laws.

Now that he was at a crucial juncture in his understanding, he had no time for anything else and didn't pay much attention to it.

But this global tremor did not weaken at all; on the contrary, it became clearer, as if a cosmic behemoth the size of a star was strutting its massive body and wantonly trampling on this tiny realm.

It even triggered widespread spatial disorder, severely interfering with everyone's comprehension of the Ember Sun Divine Realm.

"The anomaly in the laws originates from Tongtian Island." The Black Moon Pope, who was most familiar with laws and divinity, instantly sensed the source and looked eastward.

Unfortunately, the distance was too great, and it was impossible to see what was happening over there.

"Could it be that that birdbrain Yufeller has found some treasure comparable to the God Realm of the Sun?" Kim Shi-in's eyes narrowed slightly.

Huang Zhaoyue also gazed eastward, her delicate brows furrowed, as if deep in thought.

Everyone else thought it was Yufeller who caused the commotion, but she knew that it was most likely Xia Feng who had triggered it.

What secret is this guy hiding?
Although the seven were disturbed by the anomaly caused by Xia Feng, they had no time to go to Tongtian Island to investigate, especially Jin Yangtian, who shook his head and closed his eyes again.

Entering the final sprint stage.

Since Huang Zhaoyue has no external aids to help her comprehend, there is nothing to worry about.

However, the Black Moon Pope not only had the Speed ​​Card, but also a large amount of divine spiritual materials to assist him. Moreover, judging from his state, he seemed to have learned a little bit of the basic structure of the Ember Sun long ago, which clearly showed that he had made full preparations for this moment.

However, even so, the Black Moon Pope's comprehension speed was still half a day behind his.

This old man simply doesn't understand how laughable his methods of enhancement are in a world of god-level talent.

Jin Yangtian paid no more attention to the outside world, his mind sinking into the complex sea of ​​spiritual particle structures.

He can succeed in just one hour at most!

"Half an hour!"

As the Heavenly Staircase shattered, Xia Feng counted down the time in his mind, his roar like a dragon condensing into blood crystals in his throat.

All words related to pain burned away in consciousness, leaving only a pair of black eyes still burning with rage—but what was reflected in the center of the flames was a void more terrifying than any lightning tribulation.

It's like I've lost my soul.

But the flames of anger grew ever stronger, concealing within them his desire to live, his yearning for existence, and his deep reluctance to relinquish all his hopes and desires for this human life.

Greed for life, greed for love, greed for desire—all of humanity, along with the flames of rage, receded towards the center, instantly transforming into a pair of terrifying, vertical gray dragon eyes!
Integration progress: 49% → 79%

With a faint crackling sound of electricity coursing through his bones, Xia Feng didn't notice that the Abyss Black Dragon's tail, which drooped from its tailbone, was slowly growing.

The Heavenly Gate stood majestically on the other side of the clouds, never wavering despite Xia Feng's defying the heavens, as if mocking his insignificance and overestimation of his abilities.

Step straight up the last step of the heavenly ladder and stand directly in front of the Heavenly Gate!

"Om-!!"

But what followed was the final, and most powerful, sealing force – the Nine Heavens Tribulation! It crashed down with a deafening roar!

Flesh, blood vessels, soul, and even metaphysical concepts and the essence of existence were all in pain! The vertical gray dragon's eyes twisted and contorted with terrifying blood flames. He could no longer see or perceive anything around him, only his own demonic heart twitching, contracting, and filled with fear!
