Evil Venerable of the Sword Dao Chapter 1571 - 94: Evil Venerate Demon Domain

Lee Su Nu intentionally steered the battle towards the Land of Living Beings, relentlessly destroying and aiming to absorb power to grow stronger.

Zhou Yan resisted the urge to devour and descend into madness, knowing he couldn't allow Lee Su Nu to increase her might. Thus, he was compelled to contest her for the very essence that was being consumed.

Yet, it was life itself, a million living souls, devoured in a single, monstrous gulp!

Billions of stars were reduced to mere specks of dust with a solitary, devastating sword stroke.

Such a conflict was nothing short of an ultimate catastrophe, a true scene of annihilation!

In this dire circumstance, the capacity to devour more determined who could assert dominance over the other.

This was an act of sin, a profoundly wicked slaughter, but it was an unstoppable tide.

Zhou Yan found himself pushed to his very limits. Under the relentless consumption, his eyes began to bleed red, and his form morphed into an Evil Dragon, not only spewing flames but also growing incredibly long, crimson hair.

The scarlet strands flowed like a bloody waterfall, growing at an alarming rate.

In this terrifying state, Zhou Yan bore little resemblance to a human, appearing more like a corrupted, ferocious beast.

Meanwhile, Lee Su Nu, with her ethereal beauty, remained unchanged, akin to a graceful celestial fairy.

This clash presented a profound irony: Zhou Yan, seemingly the embodiment of an Evil Dragon Spirit, while Lee Su Nu appeared as the beacon of hope, the righteous guardian of the Human Clan's Dao.

Perhaps this was the greatest twist of fate.

After an eternity of devouring Origin, Zhou Yan's consciousness began to fade. His senses were overwhelmed by an endless, crimson expanse, his vision consumed by a scarlet hue and shrouded in an unending bloody mist.

His heart seethed with fury and a cold ruthlessness, his very nature consumed by violence and a frenzied desire for slaughter.

In this state, Zhou Yan let out a wild roar, losing all control and truly succumbing to the enthrallment of an Evil Spirit.

At this critical juncture, a subtle, victorious, cold smile graced Lee Su Nu's composed features.

With a swift, piercing sword strike through the boundless void, she brought forth a multitude of living beings.

These beings, however, originated from the Emperor Ancient Clan.

They suddenly materialized on the chaotic battlefield, their faces contorted in expressions of utter horror and dread.

Simultaneously, the King City of the Elf Domain, Zhou Yan's current location, fully materialized.

In unison, Hou Chen, Mu Qingyan, and Mother Empress emerged, confronting Lee Su Nu directly.

Lee Su Nu, without hesitation, unleashed a sword strike aimed at all the Emperor Ancient Clan beings.

"Buzz——"

At that precise moment, Mother Empress transformed into the ancient Life Ancient Tree, her immense roots connecting with all the Emperor Ancient Clan beings, forming a colossal, towering entity.

Yet, Lee Su Nu's single sword strike multiplied into billions of blades.

In an instant, every single Emperor Ancient Clan being was obliterated, their essence dissolving into an immeasurable sea of Life Origin.

But at this very moment, Zhou Yan, his eyes blazing with crimson intensity, burst forth, ravenously consuming all the latent Life Origin.

"No!"

Mother Empress cried out in a mixture of rage and disbelief, but it was far too late to intervene.

However, a cold, almost arrogant smile, twinged with mockery, played on Mother Empress's lips.

It appeared this entire sequence of events had been meticulously planned.

With a heart full of an unimaginable yet feigned sorrow, Mother Empress had her eyes pierced by a sword, her mask shattering instantly.

She was on the verge of losing her sight and limbs, but in that critical moment, Mu Qingyan surged forward. The boundless Cold Ice Holy Spirit Origin merged with an Evil Spirit Technique, freezing the void before unleashing Nirvana Power. Mother Empress's eyes were immediately restored.

Concurrently, Hou Chen invoked the Endless Emperor Qi Dragon Transformation, channeling the Evil Dragon Soul Devouring technique, to forcibly suppress Lee Su Nu's terrifying sword assault!

A shower of bloody light erupted, and a dense mist of blood billowed. Hou Chen's body was nearly annihilated in an instant, yet his resilience was absolute. His Origin coalesced into Evil Spirit Soul Qi, allowing him to reform, though grievously wounded, he had successfully deflected Lee Su Nu's fearsome attack.

A flicker of disdain crossed Lee Su Nu's face, followed by a unique Holy Spirit aura that enveloped Zhou Yan.

Like a marionette, Zhou Yan's now blood-red gaze immediately fixed upon Hou Chen.

"Ah——"

At that instant, not only Mu Qingyan and Hou Chen were stunned, but even Mother Empress let out a cry of profound sorrow and despair.

By this point, Zhou Yan had assimilated the majority of the Emperor Ancient Clan's Life Origin. He had broken through formidable shackles imposed by his berserk bloodline, transforming completely into an Evil Dragon Evil Spirit Fierce Beast.

In this current state, Zhou Yan's power surpassed anyone, including Lee Su Nu.

And if this newly transformed Zhou Yan were to fall under Lee Su Nu's control, the consequences would be truly catastrophic.

Hou Chen and Mu Qingyan’s eyes were filled with boundless sorrow. Within the ruined Sacrificial Heaven Ancient City, Long Xianyin, Jiang Yuning, Qian Luoshui, Ping’er, Yanyan, and Sisi all emerged slowly, each gazing at the unfolding scene with dazed expressions, their eyes swimming in despair.

This turn of events seemed to be a deliberate stratagem by Li Su Nu, designed to incite Zhou Yan into a frenzy, thereby compelling him to halt her from consuming the Life Origin.

Consequently, Zhou Yan would be ensnared, genuinely drawn into the abyss of evil.

It was a transparent plot, yet there was no viable alternative. Even with foreknowledge of the outcome, this confrontation was inevitable and destined to unfold precisely as it did.

Attempt it again, ten times over, the result would remain unchanged, as if predetermined, utterly inescapable.

However, at this critical juncture, as Zhou Yan furiously attacked Hou Chen, Zhou Sisi suddenly and desperately erupted with her Origin, propelling herself towards Hou Chen.

She understood her own insignificance, less than an ant before these supreme beings. Yet, she could not bear to witness her father slay her beloved.

These two figures were the paramount beings in her existence, bound by an exceptionally profound father-daughter bond. To harm one meant a lifetime of suffering for the other.

Zhou Sisi surged forward, but someone arrived even swifter.

That individual was Yanyan.

Her power, teetering on the precipice of the King level, naturally granted her superior speed compared to Zhou Sisi.

Just as Yanyan moved to interpose herself before Hou Chen, a figure effortlessly sent her flying. Subsequently, this figure engaged Zhou Yan's strike with breathtaking speed.

At this moment, all present recognized the intervening figure as Gu Xi.

Gu Xi’s clash with Zhou Yan’s onslaught yielded no ear-splitting Soul Qi wave as expected. Instead, a more calamitous power surged forth.

In that instant, this newfound power redirected itself, striking back at Li Su Nu with alarming swiftness.

Zhou Yan, moments before consumed by madness, now regained his clarity. The former savage and enraged Evil Dragon morphed into a resplendent purple Emperor Dragon, wreathed in ethereal Purple Flames.

Concurrently, across the entirety of the heavens and earth, an imposing Eternal Fist descended abruptly.

The Fist Intent, piercing the heavens and rooted in the earth, caused all directions to tremble.

"Boom!"

A punch was unleashed with such blinding velocity that even Li Su Nu found herself incapable of enduring it.

The devastating blow entered through her head, a torrent of Fist Intent coursing directly into the apex of Li Su Nu’s skull and erupting from her soles.

Instantly, Li Su Nu registered a moment of profound shock. Then, with Zhou Yan and Gu Xi coordinating their assault, the Ancient Evil Dragon Ancestor Dragon Emperor Venerate Sword Dao flashed through Li Su Nu’s forehead.

Blood erupted from Li Su Nu’s brow as Zhou Yan commenced the Evil Spirit Technique, initiating the absorption of Li Su Nu’s Evil Spirit Origin.

Yet, in that precise moment, Li Su Nu’s bewitching eyes gradually cleared.

Her gaze held a complex blend of tenderness and melancholy, suddenly brimming with an ocean of maternal affection.

"Yan’er… do not absorb too much, eventually… you will be unable to retract."

Li Su Nu spoke, her hand reaching out as if to gently stroke Zhou Yan’s face, but her limb fell lifelessly halfway.

And Zhou Yan found himself incapable of further absorption.

For, akin to Bi Shui Fairy before her, Li Su Nu had initiated a process of self-sealing and self-destruction, commencing a transformation from within.

In her final moments, Li Su Nu had also regained her self-awareness, thus choosing this path of self-transformation, deliberately preventing Zhou Yan from devouring her Evil Spirit Soul Qi. It appeared an immensely terrifying entity lay hidden within.

At this juncture, a cold, composed young man, bearing an uncanny resemblance to Zhou Yan, descended from the void. Simultaneously, he retracted the boundless Fist Intent that still resonated throughout the heavens and earth.

"Brother."

Sorrow flickered in Zhou Yan’s eyes. He reverted to his human form and approached Li Su Nu with gentle steps, also addressing the other young man.

"Following Li Su Nu, the next will be the Evil Emperor, the Evil Emperor Zhou Wangchen. Are you prepared?"

The young man remained silent for a beat, then surveyed Li Su Nu, his own gaze reflecting a measure of sadness.

Li Su Nu offered a faint smile and declared, "After the Evil Emperor of the Emperor Soul Clan comes… the Evil Venerate."

"That is the true Evil Venerate who inherited my Lonely Sword Dao…"

"Sword Dao… Evil Venerate?"

Li Ran’s expression shifted to one of bewilderment.

But by then, Li Su Nu had already crumbled into dust, vanishing.

She was utterly erased from this world, gone eternally, completely disappeared.

As she passed, profound guilt, self-reproach, and pain resided deep within her eyes, yet a sliver of solace was also present.

What was the source of her guilt and pain?

What fueled her self-blame and offered that hint of comfort?

These questions could be grasped and felt intuitively.

However, Zhou Yan had no desire to comprehend, nor did he wish to feel.

This agonizing sensation had already been endured once when Bi Shui Fairy departed.

Now, he was reliving that profound sorrow once more.

Following closely were the Evil Emperor, the Evil Venerate, the Azure Dragon, and all the formidable powers of the Jiang family, the true heart of the Emperor Soul Clan's core regions.

The Jiang family stood as the ultimate authority within the Emperor Soul Clan. The Azure Dragon, meanwhile, was recognized as the foremost inheritor of the Ancient Evil Dragon. These were exceptionally perilous adversaries.

These formidable forces were undoubtedly present on the Silent Annihilation Battlefield.

With a sigh, Zhou Yan turned his gaze toward the Mother Empress, his expression filled with a complex mix of emotions.

The Mother Empress appeared worn and weary, her eyes clouded with pain.

"During the final moments of devouring the Life Origin, I exercised restraint, utilizing the Nirvana Skill to consume it. Consequently, out of nearly ten million souls, approximately three million can be resurrected. However, I strongly advise you, incorporate them into your own roots and do not bring them forth again for the time being," she implored.

"Otherwise, they will inevitably perish once more. The Silent Annihilation Battlefield is a place where all living beings become mere sustenance for devouring; this is the ultimate catalyst for catastrophe."

Zhou Yan let out another sigh and spoke.

Beside him, Lee Ran offered a slight nod and stated, "Indeed. Therefore, Zhou Yan and I must depart for the Silent Annihilation Battlefield without delay, leaving this place behind."

"This current world will persist for now. What you perceive as the Life Universe Cube is, in fact, this realm's territory, known as the 'Emperor Ancient Demon Domain'. The Silent Annihilation Battlefield, however, resides within the 'Evil Venerate Demon Domain'."

"Once we embark on this journey, the likelihood of our return is slim."

"Therefore, it is time, Zhou Yan, for you to temporarily fulfill your wishes," Lee Ran declared with a grave expression.

Zhou Yan, fully comprehending Lee Ran's implication, nodded in agreement. "I understand, and I am prepared."

"Given that the Origin has surpassed the zenith of Holy Spirit Combat Power, the distinction between the fourteen King’s Marks and a singular King’s Mark has effectively vanished. The Twelve Forms and the Unity Soul can also be set aside. These are promises I can offer them for a lifetime," Zhou Yan stated with a sigh.

"Then, my Origin will contend within the Silent Annihilation Battlefield, the Evil Venerate Demon Domain."
