"Yes, my dragon has awakened."

The blind old man said.

Because he couldn't figure out the current situation, he decided to go along with the Duke of Abyss's words for now.

If that guy had also disguised himself as "Daville," and was in this Dream City, then he had to coax information out of the Duke of Abyss.

——Then go and kill that guy, seize back the power of "Heavenly Punishment"!

"Daville, oh Daville, this is indeed cause for applause. I originally thought the dragon's awakening had less than a thirty percent chance, but you succeeded!"

The Duke of Abyss applauded.

"It's nothing, Your Grace, the plan for tomorrow morning remains unchanged, right?" the blind old man asked.

"Of course it's unchanged, tomorrow morning we will go to the great tomb world, all its treasures will belong to us."

The Duke of Abyss took it for granted, while quickly contemplating in his heart what means to use to snatch that dragon.

The blind old man grinned.

Good.

The information from the Purgatory Demon King was accurate.

His initial investment, as well as the additional investment for the Purgatory Demon King this time, were all worth it.

However, the Purgatory Demon King didn't know about the loss of his "Heavenly Punishment."

——Nor did he need to tell her.

In any case, he owed her a favor this time.

So, what's next...

"Your Grace, Duke of Abyss, I have a small question," the blind old man said.

"Please speak." The Duke of Abyss said.

"It is said that the great tomb world is guarded by the Master of Dazzling Stars, and he has been guarding it for countless years. Do we really have the assurance to kill him and take the treasures of the great tomb?" the blind old man asked.

The Duke of Abyss smirked and said:

"He's not home——come with me, I'll take you to see a traitor."

Without waiting for the blind old man to speak, the Duke had already headed towards the street ahead.

The blind old man thought for a moment, followed, and asked:

"A traitor? What do you mean?"

"You'll know soon enough," the Duke of Abyss said.

The two figures advanced, walking no more than a few hundred meters, until they saw the face of a woman hanging in the window of a street store.

The woman's face, enduring immense agony and torture, had begun to distort, her features nearly unrecognizable from their original form.

Next to it, inside the large fish tank filled with a deep yellow solution——

The blind old man saw a body being corroded by the solution and then healing over and over again, only to be corroded once more.

"Stop," said the Duke of Abyss.

Immediately, the solution in the fish tank turned into cool, clear spring water.

Only then did the woman's face slowly regain her senses.

"Look!"

The Duke of Abyss opened his arms in a boastful display, pointing at the window and exclaimed, "What a perfect specimen of torment. I've rarely had the passion to create such specimens anymore."

The blind old man noncommittally agreed, "Indeed not bad, fitting your usual style."

——Demons like him delighted in destruction.

What was amusing about such a boring thing?

Upon hearing this, the Duke of Abyss laughed out loud and said, "Do you wish to hear about the process?"

"I'm all ears," continued the blind old man, playing along.

In that instant,

The Duke of Abyss sensed something amiss.

——This forbidden being was Daville's subordinate, yet Daville himself seemed distracted now.

If someone meddled with his subordinate, wouldn't he be outraged?

At the very least——

He should have asked him why he turned his subordinate into a specimen.

That would be the expected response.

Why was he appearing so indifferent?

The Duke of Abyss, discreetly, shot a glance into the showcase.

The forbidden being had regained her senses, her gaze meeting the Duke's from behind the glass——

Her eyes were brimming with a fear as deep as the abyss.

Then she saw Daville.

She——

Showed confusion.

Why confusion?

A shadow loomed over the Duke of Abyss's heart, making him stern in an instant.

"Tell me, why you remain silent upon seeing your own master—if you tell the truth, I will remove the three thousand razor blades inside you," the Duke of Abyss whispered.

Blood Youth numbly said, "There is a Causality Law binding between my master and me. Right now the law hasn't disappeared, yet I can't sense it from this person by your side."

In other words——

This Daville is a fake!

Who is he really?

And what is his purpose in coming to Dream City?

The Duke of Abyss slightly lifted his hand, casting a magic.

In the window, the fish tank vanished.

Blood Youth's body rose to its feet, stepped up to the face, and placed it upon the neck.

A skull started to grow.

And then came blood and flesh.

"You've given up on that specimen," said the blind old man.

"Indeed, I have given up on the specimen, because just now she accomplished a great feat—I always reward those who perform well," said the Duke of Abyss.

"What feat?" asked the blind old man.

The Duke of Abyss whistled.

In an instant,

Demons appeared on the street, all turning to look at the two of them.

"Your Grace, you summoned us?"

One of the demons asked respectfully.

"There is a fake 'Daville' here," said the Duke of Abyss simply.

All the demons looked at the blind old man.

Finally, the blind old man started to smile, saying:

"What a grand occasion."

He softly stamped his foot.

The world fell silent.

Seen from the distant Dark Void, the Dream City, once glittering with neon lights, collapsed into countless pieces, scattering across the sky.

——Much like fireworks blooming in mid-air.

And then——

The immense and overwhelming explosion had only just begun to sound!

Boom boom boom!!!

——The Dream City was thus destroyed!

However, a roar of anger covered all other noises:

"Damn you, you killed my servant Punoxus, I will turn you into a torture specimen!"

The Duke of Abyss!

He extended a finger toward the old blind man, and the surrounding demon robbers acted in unison.

But the old blind man just sneered coldly.

A sudden change occurred—

In an instant, all the demon robbers and even the Duke of Abyss disappeared from the Dark Void.

The old blind man was gone as well.

However, where Dream City had once stood, a magnificent and dazzling constellation quietly appeared!

This constellation emitted a brilliance far greater than Dream City's, as well as a more abundant and inconceivable vitality, slowly spreading in all directions.

At the same time.

On a fragment of Dream City that had crumbled.

Blood Youth's body disintegrated into mud with the destruction of the world.

But she was immortal!

After the tremendous shockwave, bits of flesh gathered together, regrowing bones, flesh, skin, hair, organs, and facial features.

The white-haired, red-eyed Blood Youth was resurrected!

She looked up into the sky, expecting to see a great battle.

But the next second.

Instead, the Void was filled with dense spheres, forming a magnificent and colorful galaxy.

Seeing this scene, Blood Youth couldn't help but shiver.

"A Master of the Stars..." she moaned.

Yes.

Those planets were all overflowing with vigorous life.

Beings had established vast civilizations within the star systems.

Life and death were integrated within the star systems, each with their roles, their souls transferring among one another.

Divine beings propelled the world's development, protecting the lives on those planets, racking their brains to make everything better.

These boundless planets formed the Three Thousand Worlds!

The massive star system composed of the Three Thousand Worlds was the Master of the Stars!

A world that births consciousness is a world-class life form, also known as a World Master.

World Masters naturally fear demon robbers.

After all, there's only one chance; lose to a demon robber and you're gone.

But the Master of the Stars has three thousand worlds, immensely experienced in the fight against demon robbers.

Who wins isn't certain!

Blood Youth saw the colossal star system appearing in the Void, daring not to entertain any fanciful thoughts anymore.

She turned to escape into the depths of darkness.

However, the next second.

She suddenly froze again.

The orders from Wu Xiaode surfaced in her mind again:

"The Duke of Abyss has a 'Radiant Holy Light' card, first deal with him amicably, then find a way to get your hands on that card, this is an order."

Little Wu...

Had actually issued such a ludicrous command.

The whole order was so vague—

"First deal with amicability," "then find a way to obtain it."

There were countless loopholes in just these two sentences.

Talking with the Duke of Abyss could be considered dealing with amicability, even running away could be said to be finding a way.

Ridiculous!

Blood Youth was about to flee immediately.

But as she struggled, she remained in place, motionless.

—The great battle between the Master of the Stars and the demon robbers was the perfect opportunity to seize that card.

Why shouldn't she go for it?

Actually, in the endless Void worlds, there really wasn't any reason to be discussed.

Like the Duke of Abyss.

He could torture her however he liked.

But it was different with Little Wu.

Whatever you said to him, he would listen seriously.

Freedom...

If she truly wanted freedom, she should earnestly fulfill his orders, not engage in deception and create problems.

No matter what.

If she wanted freedom, she had to show sincerity!

He was reasonable!

Blood Youth clenched her teeth and once again gazed earnestly at the three thousand stars in the Void.

She thought she had seen the Duke of Abyss near a huge and fiery star.

That must be the main battlefield!

Blood Youth soared into the sky, heading towards the boundless, resplendent constellation.

...

On the other side.

Wu Xiaode opened his eyes and saw a stretch of rock above him.

There was the sound of fire burning nearby.

"You're awake," came Chris's voice.

"Uh, how long was I out?" Wu Xiaode asked.

This was a cave.

Outside, a snowstorm raged.

Darkness had completely fallen.

However, Gjestastav was nowhere to be seen.

Chris said, "You've slept for three hours—don't rush to move. You've released an overly immense Bloodline Power, depleting your realm power. Fortunately, your Soul Power is of the Eternal type; otherwise, you'd be dead by now."

"Overly immense?" Wu Xiaode said.

"Yeah, you suddenly granted several hundred people names recognized by the Law; it's already a miracle you didn't die," Chris said.

Wu Xiaode then realized he didn't even have the strength to sit up.

His head was splitting with pain.

Seeing his discomfort, Chris waved her wand, casting Demon Art to help relieve his agony.

"Gjestastav?" he asked.

"She's gone hunting. I mentioned you wanted hotpot for dinner, so she left."

"She—"

"Yes, she's awakened too. Don't worry, I already told her what you did, so she'll be cautious in using her powers."

"…Good."

Wu Xiaode let out a sigh of relief, looking at the Book of the Dead floating in midair.

The pages were open, revealing rows of ice crystal text:

"The battle records have been sorted, ready for review at any time."

"After organizing the entire battle process, the Human Emperor's Teachings activated a part of the hidden memory, and it is known that the Power you've obtained is:"

"Ancient Dragon King Blood Curse."

"Basic."

"Description: You can bestow a name on a target and activate that Name Skill immediately."

"—An irrefutable class word spell."
