It was indeed the self that had been annihilated during childhood!
"To eradicate the Heart Demon is to achieve completeness." Xu Ying's voice overlapped with Yun Che's, "Do you hate it? Hate the unfairness of fate, hate that all your loved ones perished..."
The Star Key suddenly trembled, and Yun Che gripped it tightly, thrusting it toward Xu Ying: "What I hate is... this Starfall Curse that manipulates fate!"
Xu Ying exploded into silver light, nine crystal cores merging into the Star Key. The altar's dome cracked open, revealing the Star Map, and the Jail of the First Bloodline Seal began to collapse!
The Star Key was inserted into the altar's focal point, and Yun Che's blood flowed along the patterns, filling the Star Map. The seals of the Jail shattered piece by piece, and Xing Wen transformed into a crimson-golden dragon shadow coiling around him, his cultivation skyrocketing to the Ling Tai Realm!
However, black blood seeped between the dragon scales, and the High Priest's curse erupted in the Sea of Consciousness:
"The day the seal is lifted is the day the Demon Seed awakens!"
Yun Che bled from all seven orifices as his right arm twisted into a Demon Mark. The altar suddenly shook, and Mo Qianshan's sword energy cleaved through the dome: "Little Beast, so you were hiding here!"
Mo Qianshan led twelve elders from Heavenly Palace to surround the altar, their sword formation sealing off all directions. Yun Che grinned wickedly as the Demon Mark spread across half his face: "Just in time... let's see the true power of the Starfall Clan!"
He pointed his fingers like a sword, and the Star Key transformed into Liu Guang, piercing through the sword formation. The remnants of the Heavenly Gang Sword Technique merged with demonic energy, evolving into a world-destroying "Falling Star Style"!
The first elder's head soared into the sky as residual sword energy shattered three bodies. Mo Qianshan was forced back ten paces, flinging out the Locking Soul Banner: "The demon has appeared; everyone help me suppress it!"
The Locking Soul Banner summoned countless vengeful spirits, and Yun Che's Demon Mark grew increasingly ferocious. At a critical moment, Fumo Qinyin broke through the air, and Xiao Qingli leaped onto the battlefield atop her strings: "His life... can only be judged by Lingxiao Pavilion!"
Qin Yin transformed into a prison to trap Yun Che. Blood seeped from her fingertips as she drew a sealing talisman in midair: "Wake up! Do you want to become the second Nine Nether Demon Lord?!"
Yun Che's left eye blazed with starlight as the Demon Mark and Xing Wen fought within him. He roared as he tore apart the sealing talisman and struck Xiao Qingli away: "Get lost... I don't need pity!"
The altar collapsed amidst their fierce battle as Yun Che dragged Mo Qianshan down into an abyss. At the moment when the Star Key pierced through his chest, Nine Heavens Thunder Calamity shattered the secret realm's dome!
"Let's die together..." Mo Qianshan sneered as he crushed his life talisman, and a rift in space swallowed both of them.
In that final moment, Yun Che hurled the Star Key toward Xiao Qingli who was rushing over: "Tell Bai Ruoyou... her debt... I have noted it down!"
Thunderlight engulfed heaven and earth, leaving only a glimmer of starlight entwined with a Demon Mark... falling into the depths of Infinite Rift.
Yun Che plummeted through chaos, with the Demon Mark creeping like a poisonous vine across half his body. The gale of Infinite Rift tore at his flesh but was forcibly healed by Xing Wen; each inch of rebirth came with excruciating pain. He barely opened his eyes to see swirling dark purple mist filled with countless shattered corpses and weapons floating within it, resembling remnants of an ancient battlefield.
"I'm still alive..." he rasped with a low laugh as Xing Wen flickered in his palm. The Demon Seed pulsed at his heart, whispering seductive words that seeped into his Sea of Consciousness:
"Release Jail... I grant you power to slaughter your enemies..."
Yun Che suddenly bit through his tongue, overpowering the demonic whispers with blood. In the distance within the mist, two points of crimson light suddenly ignited. A three-headed Demon Wolf stepped upon skeletons, its sharp teeth dripping corrosive black liquid.
The Demon Wolf howled to the sky, its sound waves shattering nearby skeletons. Yun Che flipped up and leaped into action, forming Xing Wen into a blade aimed at one wolf head; however, the blade was corroded by black liquid, developing cracks!
