As the altar shook violently, a loud explosion followed.

The altar instantly shattered into pieces.

A dark silhouette floated out from beneath the altar in an instant.

It hovered above the entire Stone Pillar Spiritual Land.

This silhouette appeared to be just over two meters tall.

Yet, it gave off a terrifying pressure akin to Taishan weighing down on someone.

Next, an ancient voice echoed as if coming from eons past.

"After ten thousand years, I, the emperor, have finally descended again!"

"Youngling, you've done well!"

Upon seeing this dark shadow, Jian Chen couldn't contain his excitement.

He fell to his knees with a 'thud'.

"Welcome, Demon Emperor, to your descent!"

At this very moment, Ming He's face changed drastically, and without thinking, he turned to flee.

However, just as he moved, the dark shadow grabbed him through the air!

Ming He's body was instantly imprisoned in space.

He completely lost his freedom.

The next moment, that dark shadow flashed and merged into Ming He's body.

"Ah——"

Ming He let out a cry of agonizing pain.

He felt a terrifying primordial spirit so powerful that he was utterly powerless to resist as it invaded his Sea of Consciousness.

In less than three seconds, his primordial spirit was eradicated.

Ming He's consciousness fell into endless darkness.

From this point on, Ming He vanished completely from this world.

The Sect Master of the Yin Ming Sect, renowned for extraordinary cunning, and known for rising through the Martial Arts World from a nobody to a major power.

Such an inspirational life ended tragically in this Blood Sky Sword God's secret treasure.

As the Black Abyss Demon Emperor entered his body, Ming He's physique underwent enormous changes instantly.

Firstly, his height forcefully grew to over two meters, and his eyebrows, eyes, mouth, and nose all underwent enormous changes.

In a brief moment, a demonic sovereign with overwhelming demonic energy appeared amidst the altar's ruins.

At this moment, Yu Fengtian's heart sank completely.

He ventured here at the risk of his life to stop Ming He, not for the countless lives, nor for the world's people.

He only knew that once the Demon Emperor broke free, everyone in the secret treasure would die.

This included himself.

He didn't want to die.

But now, everything was too late.

At this moment, Yu Fengtian suddenly sensed a grim sense of death crawling upon him.

Yu Fengtian looked up, realizing that the Black Abyss Demon Emperor was gazing right at him.

At this moment, Yu Fengtian felt an icy chill throughout his entire body.

It was as if death was about to strike the next moment.

Without another thought, Yu Fengtian turned and ran.

Even if doomed to die, he wished to struggle a bit longer, after all, there were still many people in the secret treasure.

He didn't want to become the second sacrifice upon the Demon Emperor's release.

Yu Fengtian instantly transformed into a ghostly soul body and dashed away into the distance.

However, as soon as he moved, the cold snort of the Black Abyss Demon Emperor sounded in his ear.

"Earlier you hindered this emperor's descent, almost ruining my grand scheme."

"Do you think this emperor will let you live?"

As the words echoed, the Dark Demon Qi of the entire Stone Pillar Spiritual Land suddenly started to churn madly.

Subsequently, a massive demon hand clawed toward Yu Fengtian ferociously.

Just now, it was this very move that forcibly knocked Yu Fengtian out of his ghostly soul body state.

Confronted with this move once more, Yu Fengtian's face changed dramatically; without hesitation, he cast a spell.

A yellowish glow emerged immediately, transforming into a palm-sized shield.

Though small, the surface of the shield was inscribed with ancient symbols.

At this moment, the demon hand unleashed by the Black Abyss Demon Emperor clawed down fiercely.

The shield suddenly erupted with a yellowish light wave.

Bang!

The massive demon hand was directly blocked by this small shield.

Yu Fengtian remained unaffected and continued his escape out of the Stone Pillar Spiritual Land.

Seeing this scene, the Black Abyss Demon Emperor showed a look of surprise.

"Thick Earth Xuan Turtle Shield?"

"What is your relationship with that Thick Earth Spirit Venerable?"

However, Yu Fengtian seemed not to hear and fled outward without looking back.

The Black Abyss Demon Emperor sneered coldly as he watched.

"Still trying to run?"

"Stay for this emperor!"

With a cold shout from the Black Abyss Demon Emperor, the surrounding demonic energy of the Stone Pillar Spiritual Land began to spin rapidly.

The rapidly spinning demonic energy caused the spatial force within a thousand meters to undulate fiercely.

Facing such severe spatial turbulence, Yu Fengtian still tried to break through; however, in an instant, he was thrown back by the severe spatial tremor.

In that moment, he was forced out of the ghostly soul body state.

Returning to his normal state, Yu Fengtian looked extremely pale, his body covered in wounds.

The previous attack had already inflicted severe damage on him.

Moreover, this hindrance made him lose the best opportunity to escape.

At this moment, he looked at the Black Abyss Demon Emperor with a difficult expression.

The Black Abyss Demon Emperor appeared unhurried and said calmly:

"Now, can you answer my emperor's question?"
