Yun Lintian's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He took a deep look at Yue Yun and asked curiously, "Why did you ask that?"
"It's nothing," Yue Yun shrugged it off and turned to Yue Chuntao. "Looks like you've already realized how weak you are. Since you're a descendant of the Divine Moon Clan, I will
personally train you."
"Thank you, Senior," Yue Chuntao responded solemnly.
Yun Lintian walked towards the wall of the passage and gently touched it. He could feel a strong destructive power trying to penetrate to his side. Without the World Tree, the Primal Chaos would have been ravaged by such a ferocious power a long time ago.
Boom!
Suddenly, the passage wall trembled, and the destructive power intensified, causing cracks to appear in the barrier. Yun Lintian, Yue Yun, and Yue Chuntao were startled, their gazes snapping toward the source of the tremor.
From the other side of the passage, a disheveled and injured man stumbled out, his clothes tattered and his face bloodied. He collapsed onto the ground, gasping for air, his eyes filled with desperation.
"Help... please... help me..." the man croaked, his voice raspy and weak. He raised a trembling hand toward Yun Lintian, pleading, "Let me pass... I beg you..."
Yun Lintian furrowed his brow. Through the Eyes of Heaven, he saw the man was clearly a human cultivator, and in fact, a True God.
On the side, Yue Yun's eyes narrowed, a sneer curling her lips. "Hehe. You should take a closer look at him. This is a Shadow Demon."
The injured man's eyes widened in shock, his gaze darting between Yun Lintian and Yue Yun. "You... what are you talking about?"
Yue Yun's sneer deepened. "You, of course. You think you can deceive me with your pathetic display?"
The man's facade crumbled, replaced by a look of pure hatred. He struggled to his feet, his voice dripping with venom. "So be it. If you won't let me pass, then I'll make sure your entire family pays the price! Once I enter the Primal Chaos, I'll slaughter every last one of them!"
"That's more like it," Yue Yun laughed coldly. "Every single one of you is the same. All you can do is threaten others."
The Shadow Demon cackled, his laughter echoing through the passage. "Threaten? This is a promise! I'll bathe in their blood, and their screams will be music to my ears!"
As the Shadow Demon's maniacal laughter reverberated through the passage, he lunged at the barrier, his claws raking against the shimmering wall.
BANG!
The impact sent tremors through the ground, causing cracks to spiderweb across the barrier. Yue Chuntao gasped, her eyes wide with shock. "He's so powerful!"
Yun Lintian's expression remained calm, but his heart sank. Both the Void Creature and the Shadow Demon were too powerful for the current Primal Chaos to bear. He couldn't imagine what would happen once they crossed over.
Yue Yun, however, merely scoffed. "He's just a pathetic worm, throwing a tantrum because he can't get what he wants."
The Shadow Demon's laughter grew louder, his voice filled with arrogance. "You think this flimsy barrier can stop me forever? I'll tear it down and feast on your souls!"
He continued his relentless assault, each strike sending shockwaves through the passage. The cracks on the barrier grew larger, threatening to shatter at any moment.
Buzz-
Just as Yun Lintian was about to intervene, a gentle hum resonated through the underground world. The World Tree, sensing the danger, responded. Its branches extended towards the barrier, weaving a network of shimmering silver leaves that reinforced the weakened wall. The Shadow Demon's attacks bounced off the reinforced barrier, his frustration mounting with each failed attempt.
"Hmph!" He snorted in anger, his voice filled with impotent rage.
Suddenly, the air crackled with dark energy, and several more figures emerged from the swirling vortex on the other side of the passage. They were all Shadow Demons, their forms distorted and their eyes burning with malevolent intent.
"Brothers, attack with me!" the first Shadow Demon roared, his voice echoing through the passage.
BOOOOM-
The other Shadow Demons joined the fray, their combined attacks creating a symphony of destruction that threatened to overwhelm the barrier.
The World Tree, however, stood firm. Its roots delved deeper into the earth, drawing upon the boundless energy of the Primal Chaos. The shimmering silver leaves glowed with an even brighter light, mending the cracks in the barrier and repelling the Shadow Demons' attacks.
Finally, after what felt like an eternity, the Shadow Demons retreated, their attacks growing weaker and their numbers dwindling. The first Shadow Demon, his form flickering with instability, glared at Yun Lintian with burning hatred.
"This isn't over," he snarled, his voice laced with venom. "We'll be back, and when we return, we'll tear this world apart!"n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
With a final roar of defiance, he vanished back into the vortex, followed by the remaining Shadow Demons.
The passage fell silent once more, the only sound the gentle rustling of the World Tree's
leaves.
Yue Chuntao let out a sigh of relief, her shoulders slumping. "That was close."
She couldn't imagine the consequence if they didn't come here today.
Yue Yun coldly stared at the location where the Shadow Demons disappeared. "They will come back, and they'll be stronger next time. We don't have much time left."
Yun Lintian frowned deeply, his mind racing. Unfortunately, he couldn't think of any immediate stop-gap measures except to strengthen the World Tree and the barrier.
He thought for a moment, then summoned the Gate of Beyond Heaven before having Qingqing call people over.
Soon, Lan Qinghe, Long Xi, Long Yi, Long Xuan, and Yue Hong arrived.
"This... The World Tree?" Lan Qinghe was shocked to see the gigantic tree that was supposed
to be extinct.
Unlike Lan Qinghe, Long Yi and the others had seen the World Tree before. They hadn't
expected it to appear here.
At the same time, they set their sights on the wall and the wasteland behind it. Their hearts immediately sank as they recognized the place.
"I didn't expect there to be such a thing here," Long Xuan said in a deep voice. After the Primordial War, he had roamed the world searching for a solution to the Primal Chaos Wall. It turned out there was a passage here all along.
Long Xi approached the World Tree and touched it gently. "Long time no see. I know you're
still alive."
The World Tree rustled gently, acknowledging her.
Long Xi turned to Long Yi and said, "Call everyone over. We'll set up a formation here."
