Chapter 1259: Transcend, The Only Hope

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

In the evening, the Dark Moon residence.

Chen Rui looked up at the 2 moons, which started to turn purple. He seemed to be pondering.

Michael gave away many secrets at the cost of his life, unraveling the fog that had been hanging over his mind – at least part of it.

There were still many questions in his mind. The biggest one was: The Abyss Will is the Darkness of Godhood produced by the curse of the Supreme God on the Gods, which is equal to a part of the life and power of the Gods, so the gods dare not completely exterminate them. Instead, they exiled and sealed them away. In the second battle of the Gods, the Gods should have fallen under the power of the Supreme God summoned by Lucifer, so the Abyss Will connected with the fate of the Gods should also dissipate. Why does it still exist today?

“Sosbach and Dillosro have been annihilated, but fear and despair have not been destroyed.” Python’s words interrupted Chen Rui’s thoughts.

“As long as they find a suitable body, they will create a new Fear Lord and Despair Lord?” Chen Rui understood, “The Rulers are actually just the manifestation of the Will…or are they just slaves? ‘Will’ is the real Abyss? Then, even if the 3 Rulers are all defeated, it will not help. Unless… destroy the true Abyss Will?”

“Not ‘destroy’.” Python shook her head when she heard the last sentence, “You can only transcend.”

Chen Rui thought of the sentence Michael said before he died: You have to transcend him, transcend everything…

Transcend Lucifer, then transcend higher?

“Okay, you don’t need to explain the rest, I will find the answer myself.” Chen Rui stopped Python’s next words, “At this point, the answer is not important. What matters is the result. If we can’t change the result, all is in vain.”

Python knew what Chen Rui was worried about, and she fell silent.

Footsteps came from behind, Chen Rui turned around and saw Satan. His original black hair had turned gray, and his whole body was full of tiredness.

“Satan, your strength…” Chen Rui frowned, he could feel Satan’s weakness, not just on the outside, but the simultaneous decline of soul, life and strength.

In fact, since that battle, Satan’s strength had been weakening every day, which was the result of extreme overdrawing of power.

“Perhaps, Chen Rui can help you.” Python suddenly spoke up.

“If you believe in me, I will do my best.” Chen Rui nodded. Although Satan’s situation was very bad and could not be recovered with potion or magic, the Star Conferring Platform and star conferring might play a certain role.

If Satan hadn’t used the [Time Trap] to hold back Sosbach and the other 2, even if he and Zola could come, it was very likely that the Demon Realm would have been almost destroyed.

“You’re not ‘him’, and I’m not her.” Satan looked at Python indifferently, “I have my own path. Even if this path is the most difficult, I will still go on.”

There was more respect in Chen Rui’s eyes. He did not force Satan and just said, “Our 10-year agreement is still valid. I’m looking forward to it.”

“It’s a very difficult goal.” Satan’s eyes lit up and he nodded, “It’s as difficult as your goal. I plan to return to the Mountain Seckred. Uh, it’s not that I deliberately listen to your conversation… but , she was right when she said that ‘transcend’ is the only way for you.”

“Understood.” Chen Rui let out a long breath, “It is indeed difficult, but there is hope after all.”

“The only hope.” Satan looked up at the sky as his figure gradually faded away.

“At least hope is still there.” Python withdrew her gaze and turned around.

“Python, wait a minute, where are you going…”

Python stopped without turning back, “Just going back to the room.”

Chen Rui scratched his head as if he had misunderstood something, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

At this time Alice ran over with Adeline, “Brother!”

Chen Rui was taken aback, “Is there anything?”

Alice said excitedly, “Helen is back! Let’s pick her up!”

“You should go.” Python said.

“Oh.” Chen Rui just responded, and he was dragged away by Alice. Adeline bowed toward Python’s back and hurriedly followed.

Python still didn’t look back, but the green and red eyes showed a glimpse of softness and her lips slightly curved. She bathed in the quiet purple moonlight while walking to her room.

For the Demon Realm, the door between 2 worlds at the Blood Claw Estate disappeared, and the terrifying war finally ended, but all those who lived through it would never forget this catastrophe in their lifetime.

In fact, this battle had not really ended, it had just come to a break. The door between the 2 worlds would open again in 130 years at the latest. This opening would determine the fate of the entire world and all lives.

130 years, ordinary humans didn’t have such a long lifespan, but people still had offspring. For humans with certain strength, a lifespan of more than 100 years was just the beginning, let alone demons.

The only way to survive was to keep getting stronger.

The ‘Infinite Warrior OL’ version was updated again. It removed the previous cover and entertainment, and it turned into a pure training and strategic deduction game. The enemy in it was the complete version of the Abyss. Based on this battle with the Abyss, the data made corresponding adjustments to the monster’s strength and attributes. The dungeon was divided into normal, difficult, and epic grades. The monster siege activity had become a daily challenge. Those who reached a certain level and achievement could participate in the hell trial challenge and enjoy the real endless monster army. There was no time limit until death.

The Demon Realm set off a frenzy of fighting and training. The 3 empires also held various rewards and competitions accordingly. Whether it was demons, humans or other races, they had shown unprecedented enthusiasm.

Everything was for survival.

Although there were still unavoidable conflicts and disputes, when faced with the common final enemy of ‘destruction’, most of the originally opposing races, whether it was within demons or humans, or between demons, humans or other races, they both put aside their conflicts for many years and fought hand in hand.

The development of the Demon Realm had far exceeded the imagination of the human world races. The soaring economy and construction, including all kinds of novelty, had deeply attracted the human world races.

In particular, the only prince consort of the 3 empresses of the Demon Realm was Arthur. Roland (currently named Chen Rui), who had been missing for many years from the Dragon Bright Empire and who once became a news figure in the human world. In this war with the Abyss, the strength he showed far surpassed the 3 archangels who were the strongest in the human world, and he also surpassed Satan who was the strongest in the Demon Realm. He was also the key figure who repelled the Abyss monsters.

The biographical video of ‘I Have a Dream’ he posted on the Demon Realm had already spread throughout the Demon Realm.

I have a dream that we don’t have to hate each other, we don’t have to conquer each other, because what we have, what we protect, is beyond what can be obtained by conquest.

Until now, this sentence was familiar and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Maybe it was more about succumbing to that person’s power, but it was precisely because of him that the Demon Realm avoided the doom of destruction in this catastrophe. He was the most important link connecting the entire humans and demons. He was also the strongest guardian of all living creatures in his world.

In the battle of the Star Fortress in the Bloody Empire, the elites of the demons and humans coalition army were almost wiped out. On the other side, the army led by Shea also encountered fierce battles in Black Iron Mountain Range. Although with the help of Meria, Span, Philly and others, it was still extremely precarious. Fortunately, there were no Ruler-level enemies. After the door between 2 worlds closed, all the Abyss troops were finally eliminated.

After this battle, a huge monument was built in Blood Claw Estate, engraved with the names of all the soldiers who died in this bloody battle. There was no race or gender distinction here, only the heroes who died in battle.

A month later, a wedding attracted the attention and reports of all parties.

The 2 sides of the wedding were a male elf and a demon female, Sivling and Rometty.

Sivling used to be the single elf with a promising future in the Silver Moon Celestial Capital, and he was now the legion commander of the elf magic archer; Rometty was the legion commander of the Fallen Angel Empire’s Flying Cloud Legion. Both of them were Demon Overlord-level powerhouses and also famous archers and sharpshooters.

Love was a complicated and wonderful thing. Some people might not be able to spark when they get along every day, while some people could fall in love at first sight, or they only need a trigger point. In the fierce battle against the Abyss side by side, the elf fell in love with the heroic female demon. At the critical moment of facing the Abyss charge, Sivling, who had always been arrogant and introverted, took the initiative to express his love to Rometty. Fortunately, both of them survived the war.

After a romantic candlelight dinner, the relationship between the 2 developed rapidly. Everything seemed to happen too quickly, yet it was so natural.

The biggest focus of this wedding was not the union of the 2 sharpshooters and legion commanders, but the race. The union between demons and humans would have been considered taboo in the past, but at this time and place, it had been widely recognized and blessed.

The Fallen Angel Empire’s Empress Shea and the elf tribe’s new empress Philly attended the wedding and sent blessings to both parties. This was an epoch-making wedding. Although it was hyped as a political event for many reasons, for Sivling And Rometty, the lovers, this was a perfect wedding. For many races in the Demon Realm, this was just the beginning of common survival and common development.

In fact, Sivling and Rometty were not the first interracial couple to marry after the war. Half a month ago, Gueroas from the Dragon Valley secretly got together with Dursa from the elf tribe. They also sparked love in the life-and-death war with the Abyss.

Gueroas had a crush on Zola’s mother Meria for tens of thousands of years, but Meria got together with Elf King Span in the end. Now Gueroas himself had found an elf partner. Everything seemed to be decided by fate.

The wedding of Gueroas and Dursa only invited friends from the small circle. Since they could no longer return to the Dragon Valley, Span could not use the Scale of Wealth of the dragons to avenge the loss of their family property. They could only use the newly produced top quality white wine to get Gueroas drunk and recouped a bit of interest.

Amidst the joyful songs and laughter, the haze of death before was finally dispelled bit by bit.

Life was so precious.

Those who survived on the verge of death would only cherish it more.
