"Don't even think about hurting her!"

At the critical moment, Nalan Rongzhi roared like thunder. Ignoring his own injuries, he forcibly activated the remaining demonic energy and elemental power in his body, his figure traversing the void to block Lu Lingxi Yao.

The enormous phantom of the demon god solidified a bit more, crossed its arms, and head-on met the pitch-black beam of destructive light.

"boom--"

"Crack!"

A deafening roar accompanied by the sound of shattering followed. The phantom of the demon god, under the impact of the beam of destruction, could only withstand it for a moment before it shattered like glass being struck, exploding into pieces.

Nalan Rongzhi was struck as if by lightning, spitting out a mouthful of blood. His body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing hard into a stone pillar at the edge of the altar before rolling to the ground. His life force instantly weakened to the extreme.

"Rong Zhi!"

Lu Lingxi was terrified, her eyes blazing with fury, and an indescribable rage and murderous intent surged wildly from the depths of her heart.

"Crush it for me!"

Lu Lingxi forced down her surging blood and the grief that almost overwhelmed her, and poured a wisp of chaotic power and fragments of Lu Yao Goddess's divine power into the Azure Dragon Sword and the Nine Luminaries Heavenly Star Plate.

The Azure Dragon Sword emitted a deafening dragon roar, its blade gleaming with azure light, and a faint azure dragon phantom could be seen coiling around it. The Nine Luminaries Celestial Disc shone even brighter, its nine gems like nine stars, bursting forth with endless stellar primordial power, which surged wildly into the energy core through the starlight path.

"Click——"

"Click——"

"boom!"

Under the combined attack of the Azure Dragon Sword and the Nine Luminaries Star Disc, the energy core finally reached its limit. With a crisp explosion, the energy core suddenly shattered, scattering in all directions and eventually dissipating into nothingness.

"Uhhhhhh-"

The Eye of the Evil God let out a shrill scream. Its compound eye, which had just opened halfway, suddenly contracted. The surging dark energy within it receded rapidly like a tide. The invisible channel connecting to the energy core was completely severed, causing it unprecedented damage. The entire altar trembled violently due to the shattering of the energy core, as if it would collapse at any moment.

However, at the very moment the energy core shattered, the white radiance at the top of the altar, which enveloped the soul of Yueying Jiuge, dimmed to its lowest point.

"Nine Songs!"

Lu Lingchenxuan let out a desperate cry. He could clearly feel that his wife's soul power was draining away at an alarming rate. Connected to the seal, she was about to be exhausted under the dual impact of the evil god's will and the shattering of her energy core.

“Mother—” Lu Lingxi’s heart tightened, and an ominous premonition overwhelmed her.

"Hehehe... Foolish ants... Do you think... this will stop me?" The evil god's voice was weak, but it was filled with rage and madness. "You... will all pay the price for your stupidity!"

Before the words were finished, an even more terrifying dark power suddenly erupted from that huge compound eye. This power no longer used the energy core as a transit point, but poured out directly from a thick cloud of black mist!

"Rumble--"

Under the relentless assault of the evil god, the seal emitted a deafening roar that shook the heavens. On the altar, the sealing runes melted and crumbled rapidly as if scorched by raging fire. The last ray of white light protecting Yueying Jiuge's soul also shattered completely at this moment.

"Do not--"

Lu Lingxi Yao let out a heart-wrenching scream. She watched helplessly as the familiar and warm white light vanished like fireworks the moment the seal shattered, leaving only a faint wisp of soul power floating in the air.

The seal has been broken!

The resentment, hatred, and the darkest evil energy from the primordial era, accumulated over tens of thousands of years, erupted completely at this moment, like a primordial beast breaking free from its restraints.

The sky turned black at this moment, and countless twisted black lightning bolts, like wildly dancing demonic snakes, raged across the dark sky. The earth, no, the "ground" of this ghostly realm, began to collapse and crack violently. Bottomless cracks spread like a spider web, from which thick, ink-like Yin energy surged.

A roar, seemingly emanating from the deepest hell, resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

At the center of the shattered Eye of the Void, above the ruins of the altar, a colossal, indescribable black shadow slowly rose up.

It has no fixed form, as if it were formed from darkness and chaos. Countless twisted tentacles dance around it, and on each tentacle are open scarlet, bloodshot eyes that exude greedy and violent desires.

A suffocating dark and evil power, like a materialized storm, swept out from it and instantly filled the entire ghost realm.

"I... have finally... returned to the world! Hahaha..." The voice of the evil god, filled with boundless majesty and exhilaration, echoed deep within the souls of every living being.

Throughout the entire Ghost Realm, the wandering souls, vengeful spirits, and various Ghost Realm creatures tainted by Yin energy seemed to receive a "gift" upon contact with the aura emanating from the evil god. Their bodies began to twist and swell, becoming even more ferocious and terrifying, and their power surged at a visible speed. Their eyes were filled with fanatical worship of the evil god and a bloodthirsty desire.

The sky of the Ghost Realm was completely torn apart, the earth collapsed, and it was transformed into countless floating islands and twisted energy vortexes, becoming the domain of the evil god.

"Father!"

Lu Lingxi Yao was jolted awake from her grief and despair. She saw that Lu Lingchen Xuan had been blasted away by a powerful force the moment the seal shattered. He was now struggling to get up from the ruins. He looked at the faint wisp of soul power in the air, his eyes filled with despair and resentment.

"Yao'er... run!" Lu Lingchenxuan shouted hoarsely, his broken sword pointing at the terrifying evil god, his eyes filled with a death wish, "Father... avenge your mother!"

"No! Father!" Lu Lingxi Yao wanted to rush over, but her weak body and the terrifying pressure emanating from the evil god made it extremely difficult for her to even stand up.

"Cough cough..."

Nalan Rongzhi struggled to his feet, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. Although his purple eyes were dim, they still gleamed with an indomitable cold light. He looked at the terrifying evil god, then at the nearly collapsed Lu Lingxi Yao and the desperate Lu Ling Chen Xuan, and a sense of powerlessness welled up in his heart.

The power of the evil god far exceeded their imagination. Even at their peak, they might not have been able to contend with it, let alone now, when they were already at their limit.

"Insects... tremble before my divine might... despair..." The evil god's enormous compound eyes slowly turned, its gaze locking onto the few people on the altar ruins. Its voice was mocking, "You... will be the first sacrifices for my return to the world!"
