This particularly weird scene happened to be captured by Luo Meng's eyes.

Although the leaves blocked the view, making it unclear, Luo Meng still recognized the other party's identity; it was undoubtedly his father, the Demon King Nag.

This moment allowed Luo Meng to confirm two things directly.

First, his father was indeed hiding in the back mountain.

Second, the six weird crimson chains in the sky were truly aimed at his father.

His father was incredibly frightened of these chains, his usually imposing face now contorted, eyes filled with intense fear and madness.

The robust body was desperately struggling, attempting to break free from the chains entwined around it, yet even with the power of a Demon King, he couldn't break the crimson chains instantly.

A wave of fear surged in Luo Meng's heart.

Where did these chains come from?

What kind of existence released them?

Why were they targeting his father?

Could it be merely because of his father's identity as the Demon King?

If he ascended to the position of Demon King, would these chains come directly for him?

At this instant, although Luo Meng still greedily desired the Demon King's supreme throne, a bit of fear had crept into his heart. Even his father couldn't break free of these chains; if it were him, it would surely be far worse, and he'd be taken instantly.

On another side, he also felt fear towards his father.

His father must have sensed this danger ahead of time, which was why his behavior changed drastically recently, calling back all demons to try and protect himself, but unfortunately, these demons were useless in front of the chains.

No matter how powerful the existence was, when the chains swept across the sky, even if they didn't directly attack those demons, those demons couldn't withstand the mysterious force naturally emanating from the chains, breaking apart and dying in droves.

Demon King Nag's roars grew louder.

This fear mainly originated from another consciousness within the chest, Jie Luo.

The most feared thing eventually happened.

From the moment Jie Luo felt rebellious and tried to break free from the control of the Void Evil God, he had been fearing this.

Jie Luo understood clearly that even though his power in the human world was formidable, he was utterly helpless against the creatures of the Void; those existences naturally knew this, and couldn't care less about giving up Jie Luo.

But, those existences would never allow the puppets they controlled to one day escape their grasp.

And now, Jie Luo's existence had been detected.

Jie Luo could almost foresee what kind of end awaited him.

Death?

Don't joke.

The creatures of the Void wouldn't be so merciful.

Once caught by those monsters, death wouldn't even be an option, and endless torture would await.

Neither Jie Luo nor Demon King Nag wanted to fall to that fate, thus these two powerful existences were striving desperately, exhausting their potential, resisting the control of the six crimson chains.

The chains wrapped around them were as if highly corrosive; where the chains wound, white mist swirled, Demon King Nag's strong body showed rapidly rotting armor, and beneath the armor, skin tougher than steel bore corroded traces.

These chains seemed intent on penetrating Demon King Nag's skin barrier, directly infiltrating inside, entwining the heart.

No, not the heart.

Demon King Nag could clearly sense that the real target of these chains was not the body, but the soul contained within.

His soul seemed about to succumb to the overwhelming pull from the six crimson chains, about to be forcibly dragged out and taken from his body.

Roar... Roar... Roar...

The Demon King Nag's throat emitted beast-like roars incessantly. First sееn оn

He was struggling unprecedently, demonic qi surged from his body, ground cracked beneath his feet, earth shook, mountains trembled, the entire world seemed about to overturn.

Sharp claws grasped two chains, exerting force, nearly breaking those chains.

For a moment, a subtle balance formed between Demon King Nag and the six chains, perhaps if there were one more chain, the situation would change.

Unfortunately, the Lord of Pleasure had fallen, the seventh chain would never appear.

Suddenly, Demon King Nag let out another furious roar, his massive mouth opened, revealing shark-like serrated teeth, biting into a chain.

The roar in his throat was like muffled thunder.

In the next instant, a crunching sound was heard, and a chain was bitten and snapped.

The bravery of the Demon King was terrifying.

...

Meanwhile, beside the magic resurrection ritual's Magic Array.

The screams from the Evil God's corrosion still lingered.

However, Rose Vesper's wild laughter was gradually subsiding.

At this moment, the woman's brows furrowed tightly, as a full minute had passed since the resurrection technique began, yet the reuniting of Jie Luo's soul had not been witnessed on the magic array.

Rose Vesper's mood involuntarily became anxious.

This was not the same as what she understood from the description on the Magic Scroll about the Resurrection Technique.
