CHAPTER 663: CHAPTER 533 EVOLUTION AND WINNING!

One side was a desolate wilderness.

Dark clouds rolled over the wilderness, and peals of muffled thunder sounded from the clouds one after another.

The other side was a grassland.

The Demon King, ablaze with fierce green flames, walked step by step across the grassland, heading towards the direction of the wilderness.

Wu Xiaode glanced back at Ye Jiana.

Ye Jiana’s eyebrows were tightly furrowed, her mouth continuously chanting, seemingly at a critical juncture in her spell.

It wouldn’t do.

The Demon King looked formidable, and even though its power had been suppressed by "Rage," its combat skills and tactics were absolutely too much for these humans to handle.

This was a bit like many fighting games—

the final boss’s health bar might match the player’s.

—but could you defeat it?

He must think of a plan immediately; otherwise, after the people here were killed by the Demon King, even his own world would suffer!

Wu Xiaode’s gaze fell on the enemy forces on the wilderness.

The King had led a charge earlier, killing many enemies, but there were still a large number of enemies who were rooted to the spot.

The Dragon Curse had not yet worn off.

Good opportunity.

Then—

"Attack."

Wu Xiaode retracted the World Attribute "Rage" and uttered a word.

The next second.

The fragments of rock scattered among the enemy’s formation began to fly up, assembling in the air into gigantic figures towering five to six meters high.

—Rock Giants!

This rare species, having played dead for so long, finally joined the battle!

"Ahhh ah ah, for the glory of the World Master!"

The Rock Giants roared, charging and smashing through the enemy’s defenses.

The Devils, no longer under the influence of "Rage" yet still trapped by the Dragon Curse and caught off guard—

The Rock Giants casually grabbed a Devil, tore it apart with their hands, and casually discarded the corpse on the ground.

Some Rock Giants, when hit by the Devils’ magic, did not resist but fell backward.

Numerous screams erupted.

With their massive and hard bodies, a casual roll on the ground resulted in a swath of death and injury.

Instantly, the enemy’s formation descended into chaos!

"Brother Wu, should we make a move?" the Extreme Good Angel asked.

"Let’s wait and see," Wu Xiaode said.

To deal with ordinary enemies, the Rock Giants were enough.

They continually inflicted casualties on the enemy forces, transforming the opponents’ bodies and souls into this world’s source power.

Finally...

The source power was full!

The Book of the Dead opened and quickly revealed a line of ice crystal small text:

"With sufficient World Source Power, the current species: Rock Giant is about to evolve."

"Please choose from the following three directions for the evolution tree."

"1. Spirit Communication;"

"Leans towards spiritual and netherworld-type evolution, marking the beginning of the ’Summoning’ path;"

"2. Elemental;"

"Rock Law undergoes a mutation that can transform towards elemental creatures, marking the starting point of the ’Five Elements Tao Power’ Talent Tree;"

"3. Growth;"

"Full-scale evolution of strength, size, texture, and intelligence, unlocking the ’End’ evolution tree."

Which to choose?

Wu Xiaode unhesitatingly chose "Spirit Communication."

His own abilities were inherently aligned with the netherworld’s Book of the Dead; if the world’s species also took this path, it meant compatibility, gaining a certain degree of world enhancement.

The ground trembled continuously.

A force surged from the deep layers of the world, entering into the bodies of the Rock Giants.

The actions of the Rock Giants gradually slowed, seemingly enduring the irrigation of the World Source Power.

On the Book of the Dead, a brand new blank page was created.

This page revealed the Rock Giants’ Skill Tree—

The initial icon appeared out of the darkness, displaying a double image of a person.

Several lines of ice crystal small text appeared beside the icon:

"Spirit Communication initial ability:"

"Summoning."

"With the talent of Spirit Communication, Rock Giants can call upon the World Master, allowing their bodies to become vessels for the World Master, thereby facing the battle together."

As Wu Xiaode looked, a sinister premonition suddenly surfaced in his mind.

He immediately turned his gaze towards the Demon King on the grassland.

The Demon King, watching the continuous changes in the battlefield, flashed and instantly crossed the entire grassland, landing within the wilderness.

In an instant.

"Rage, unfold," Wu Xiaode immediately shouted.

The Rock Giants responded, dispersing their bodies and reverting to fragments of rock, scattering on the ground.

—When "Rage" unfolded, all still-living beings had to participate in the battle as "humans."

The Rock Giants had died.

Therefore, they didn’t need to join the battle!

At the same time—

The Demon King appeared on the wilderness.

Its form rapidly shrank, directly transforming into a woman with an exotic appearance, covered in mysterious tattoos and with long purple hair.

The Demon King halted, looking up at its health bar and soul power bar, its face showing a mocking expression.

"Ye Jiana, do you think—"

"that these mere creatures can defeat me?"

As she spoke, her body emanated waves of light that formed three spinning balls of green flame around her.

Wu Xiaode’s expression grew solemn.

He specifically looked at the opponent’s soul power bar, only to find that it was full.

That meant—

This move had not consumed the opponent’s soul power.

According to the knowledge imparted by the Human Emperor, only those abilities inherent from birth do not consume soul power.

And these abilities are almost always extremely peculiar and irresistible.

The Demon King stood still, looking at the nearby King, its gaze sweeping over the Temple.

"Come on, I’ll kill you one by one, let you know what despair is,"

She stood her ground, taking up a battle stance and inviting the opponents across from her.

The King, having just won a battle, was spirited and rode forward, holding his great sword, slowly advancing towards the Demon Lord.

"Kill me? Who do you think you are?" sneered the King.

The Demon Lord did not speak, only the corners of her mouth slightly lifted, as if she disdained even to converse.

In mid-air.

Ye Jiana suddenly spoke:

"The spell is complete."

Wu Xiaode hurriedly looked at the brick, only to see crazy changing runes emerging on it, not pausing for a moment.

On the Book of the Dead, there was only one prompt rune:

"?????"

Wu Xiaode hesitated for a moment, then said, "Is this what I am supposed to obtain?"

Ye Jiana nodded solemnly and said:

"You have successfully delayed the time, allowing my magic to be fully completed. Now, take this thing and hurry back to the future."

"Remember, you need to fully understand the power contained in this thing."

"Maybe one day, you can achieve what we all couldn’t."

"—Now go!"

After hearing this, Wu Xiaode looked towards the center of the arena.

He saw the King, cloaked in a bloody aura, raising his great sword high and charging directly at the Demon Lord.

"Die!"

The King roared loudly.

However, the Demon Lord spoke, "I am the Purgatory Demon Lord, you are just a human from an obscure world, what right do you have to fight me?"

Suddenly, an anomaly occurred—

The King, along with his horse, was turned into a lifeless stone statue.

He was still raising his great sword, his expression as vivid as if he was about to unleash a killing move the next second.

The Demon Lord stepped forward, lightly plucked with her hand.

The King’s head was plucked off, turned into a ball of dust scattered by the wind.

The Demon Lord could not help but slightly curl her lips, whispering:

"Next—"

"Be it a giant dragon, elemental life, or mere humans, you can all come at me together; after all, you and your world will turn to dust."

Wu Xiaode felt his heart sinking.

What kind of move was that?

He couldn’t make it out at all.

More importantly—

She had been confined to a human form, yet she could still unleash such formidable power!

If not for the "Fury" restriction, how strong could her real strength be?

"Hurry, this is the Purgatory Demon Lord who has destroyed countless worlds, no one can match her, you need to return to the future to find that one chance,"

Ye Jiana urged.

Wu Xiaode looked at the brick in his hand and couldn’t help but nod.

There was no point in fighting the enemy here.

But—

His Black Flag behind him shook, as if it was ready to open a time-space passage to take him back, but he held it down with his hand.

"Ye Jiana, how did you become the World Master?"

Wu Xiaode heard himself asking.

"Me? I am human," Ye Jiana was somewhat surprised, but explained, "I struggled through hardships and finally, after many tests, won my own world."

"But this is an era dominated by calamities, almost all worlds are powerless to resist the slaughter of the calamities."

"I could only pass on hope to you, hoping that in the future, someone could avenge me."

Wu Xiaode fell silent.

Future—

In the future, calamities still constantly destroy worlds.

It’s ironic.

He raised his black flag to catch the wind, and suddenly a passage appeared in the void.

"This place is about to be destroyed, it’s not suitable to stay long, hurry up."

The Black Flag whispered.

Wu Xiaode stepped into the passage.

The next instant.

The Demon Lord on the ground seemed to sense something and immediately roared angrily:

"Thief!"

"Damn Ye Jiana, if you escape with that thing, even if you travel across the Infinite Worlds, I will find you and torment you for ten thousand years, ensuring you can never escape!"

Ye Jiana shivered all over.

"Instead of enduring such an end... "

She clenched her teeth, drew out a short dagger, and stabbed directly at her own neck.

Just as she was about to end her own life—

The dagger stopped.

Unbeknownst to her, Wu Xiaode had already stood before her, directly grabbing her wrist holding the dagger.

"Huh? Why haven’t you left? Don’t let my sacrifice be in vain!"

Ye Jiana said with a pale face.

"I certainly need to leave," Wu Xiaode said lazily, "but I also became a World Master from a human, I know how difficult it is, and I don’t think you’ve given me something so important only to watch you die."

"Besides—"

"Someone called me a thief and said they would trouble me later—"

"I’m so scared!"

"Now I want to kill her first."

A faint killing intent emanated from him, his gaze returning to the Demon Lord.

Suddenly, an anomaly occurred—

A loud "clang" sound erupted in mid-air.

Nine stars emerged in the sky, arranged in a crown shape, emitting dazzling light.

The Book of the Dead opened, with lines of ice crystal characters emerging:

"Your choice has been acknowledged by the Laws."

"They have waited in silence for a long time, hidden in the dark, wanting to see your true choice, and you did not disappoint them."

"Fight—"

"When you defeat the Demon Lord opposite you, you will earn their further approval, and you will obtain the third card sung through endless time:

"Babylon!"
