Bitter Realm: My Feet Step Through the Flames of War

"No need to run around, I've brought it for you."

The sky suddenly shattered, and a person holding a demon brain slowly walked out of the void.

Seeing the colossal Demon Origin now reduced to the size of an egg in the newcomer's hands, Demon Origin's mind immediately collapsed.

The man looked at the remnant soul of the Demon Lord with disdain.

"Your research works pique my curiosity, but you yourself are nothing special. Disperse. No one in the Bitter Realm will remember the name Demon Beginning."

Chapter 482: End of Volume 2 - Young Master Ascends the Throne, Rear Areas Stabilized

The one who came carrying the demon brain was Chifeitian.

How could such a commotion in Beihai Lingzhou escape his notice? Moreover, someone had tipped him off, saying that a sentient being far more advanced than the technology of the Bitter Realm was hidden deep within the Netherworld.

Chi Feitian rushed to the Netherworld in a great hurry, fought his way to the Six Souls Demon Gate, and sure enough, he saw a giant brain.

Since the successful experiment of the Blood Essence Creation Secret Technique, Chi Feitian has become fascinated with mysterious powers beyond martial arts, and he has transformed the former residence of Yi Zong into a biological research base.

The imperfections of life in the Kingdom of the Dead were always a thorn in Chifeitian's side. The Sun God created the powerful Celestial Race and deities, but Chifeitian could only create the three inferior races. This disparity made him deeply resentful.

The moment Chi Feitian saw the Demon Brain, he knew he had found the answer and was only one step away from creating the most outstanding race.

But this mind, possessing superhuman strength, is the property of others, and is connected to them.

Of course this won't work.

With the help of the various secret techniques recorded in the Mysterious Vein Treasure Mirror and the divine power of the Six Heavens Realm, Chi Feitian finally compressed the demon brain into an egg.

Following the lingering aura of the Demonic Origin within the Demonic Brain, Chi Feitian pursued it to the Northern Sea Spirit Continent, just in time to witness the Demonic Origin's defeat and self-destruction, with a wisp of its remnant soul about to return.

How could Chi Feitian, who wanted to monopolize the Demon Brain, allow the original owner to return? With a gentle flick of his finger, the remnant soul of the Demon Beginning instantly turned into dust.

The ghost that had wandered the land of suffering for so long has now completely left the stage.

Ezi sighed: "Both of my dearest friends were harmed by this demon. Today, I have finally avenged them and put an end to this karma."

Liao Tian escaped death once again and hurriedly expressed his gratitude to the two seniors.

Needless to say, Tianzhe left happily with his spoils.

Ezi had previously received a great favor from the Martial Lord, so it was only natural for him to save Liaotian. He politely returned the favor and then presented Liaotian with a small white jade bottle.

"This is a drop of essence condensed from the sunlight and rain that the Tree of Immortality has absorbed for three thousand years. If the sick eat it, they can be brought back to life, and if the healthy eat it, they can add a thousand years to their lifespan."

Liao Tian was overjoyed: "Thank you, Prophet! I will repay your kindness in giving me this medicine in the future!"

"If it weren't for Wu Jun going to Time City to break the Heavenly Covenant for me, how could the Longevity Tree have shielded the young master from this calamity today? Every drink and every bite is a consequence of cause and effect."

Ezi left with a smile. The Tree of Immortality was his source of power. It had blocked the self-destruction of the Demon Lord and almost destroyed his foundation. Now, he had given away this precious essence. He didn't know how many years it would take for him to recover.

Fortunately, the great feud between the God of Doomsday and Emperor Tianyao has been avenged, and the Saint Mark is busy holding his grandson and enjoying family life, so there is no need to worry about him.

Farewell, my suffering realm.

After the great battle ended, the sky cleared and the swallows flew swiftly back to Thousand Flying Island.

The next day, the Broken Island Xuange descended again, taking all the wounded back to Tiandu, leaving Ya Hun behind to assist Miao Ruofan in handling matters in Lingzhou.

half a month later.

The crabapple blossoms in Tiandu are in full bloom, filling the city with vibrant colors and reflecting on the shimmering spring waters of the lake.

Chao Yizhu helped Qing Shuangtai stroll along the lakeside. A gentle breeze blew, ruffling the lake water and also ruffling the white hair on Qing Shuangtai's forehead.

Chao Yizhu lovingly gathered her hair and sighed, "What a pity for Shuangmei's full head of black hair."

"It's alright. If it weren't for the young master and Miss Ji fighting to the death, how could we have come back alive?"

"I am even more grateful to the prophet for the essence of the Tree of Immortality. I never expected that the young master would give it to you instead of Miss Ji."

"Upon hearing that someone was injured in Tiandu, renowned doctors such as Tian Bugu came to treat them. Cui Luohan, who had just given birth, also rushed back to join the consultation, and everyone was safe and sound."

Not only that, all the allied organizations sent over all their treasured elixirs and secret medicines, and Empress Wu also searched high and low for precious medicinal materials from the Four Realms.

This was the most devastating battle in Tiandu's history. The mere killing of one Demon Origin severely damaged the foundations of Tiandu's four strongest experts. If it weren't for the intervention of Ezi and Tianzhe, the young master and Ji Wuxia might have also lost their lives.

The most severely injured were naturally Qing Shuangtai. The Ancient Moon Secret Technique was tantamount to a death ultimatum, with a countdown every day.

For the past two weeks, the atmosphere in Tiandu has been oppressive, with no one showing a smile. Even Xuanling and Gu Xiaoyue, who returned with Empress Wu, are no longer as mischievous as before, as if they have grown up in just a few days.

Finally, fifteen days passed, and the shadow of death vanished.

Chao Yi and Zhu both marveled at the beauty of spring and felt grateful to be alive.

Just then, Little Fox ran over to announce a meeting, a formal meeting personally chaired by Lord Wu.

The main hall of Tiandu was filled with people.

My vacation is over.

Those who had given birth, visited relatives, were stationed abroad, or were sightseeing all returned to work after their leave ended. Even the Prince Xian, who had just become a father and was still in a daze, came to work.

Just before stepping into the main hall, Huang Quan softly asked King Xian whether his son was a tree or a human.

This issue almost caused the two to come to blows.

However, upon seeing Qing Haichao, Ji Xiashang, and the others, who were pale and looked sickly, both Xian Wang and Huang Quan stopped their attack out of shame.

Once everyone was seated, Luo Hou signaled for the meeting to begin.

The first half of the meeting was given by Liao Tian, ​​who summarized the entire process, from the Battle of the Universe to the annihilation of the Nine Heavens Demon Lord, including his handling strategies and subsequent arrangements for the Northern Sea Spirit Continent, in great detail.

After he finished speaking, he gave a heartfelt self-criticism.

"Father, the battle damage to Tiandu is severe; it's all due to the incompetence of the heavens!"

Listening to Liao Tian's report, Luo Hou remained silent until Liao Tian finished speaking, and Luo Hou still showed no expression.

Upon hearing that her son was injured, Yu Cixin, who had rushed back from the Four Realms, held back for a long time before finally speaking: "He risked his life twice, fought bravely and never retreated, and not only won the championship of the Universal Battle of Wonders, but also brought down the Demon King. My son's journey was not bad."

She glared at Luo Hou, her unspoken meaning clear: Mo Shi's strength was terrifying, and sending Liao Tian to the North Sea Spirit Continent on a mission was clearly sending her son to his death.

Everyone present had the same question as Empress Wu: no matter how strong Mo Shi was, he couldn't withstand a single strike from Wu Jun. Even if Wu Jun himself didn't make a move, either Yi Ye Shu or Di Ru Lai could have prevented everyone from being injured to such an extent.

"Sending Liaotian to the Northern Sea Spirit Continent this time is indeed a test for me. If I am the one who ultimately takes action, then Liaotian will fail."

"But it is said that only the five primordial energies of chaos can subdue the Demon Origin?"

Luo Hou finally smiled: "As you all have seen, destiny is not immutable. I will do more things that defy destiny. Therefore, from today onwards, Liao Tian will take over Tian Du. I ask you all to join Liao Tian in shouldering the heavy responsibility of protecting Tian Du and the Bitter Realm."

The battle in Beihai Lingzhou not only proved Liaotian's personal qualities and leadership skills, but also demonstrated that the masters of Tiandu were willing to give their lives for their young master. With such a relationship between ruler and subject, Luohou no longer had any worries.

He handed over the rear to his son, and the military commander once again stepped into the flames of war.

Chapter 483 Su Huanzhen Reunited

The second half of the Tiandu Conference involved personnel reassignment.

They split into two groups. One group went through the Yama Ghost Prison to the Mud World to meet Zou Shan Qi Yi and Xuan Ming Shi, who had not been heard from for a long time. If they encountered Su Huan Zhen, Qu Shi Tu, and She Zhi Duo, they would rescue them as well.

The other path is to find the sun's homeland, enter the Heavenly Dao of the White Feather Realm, and meet the first near-god-like being who has been hiding for a long time.

Two paths, one by land and one by air, both lead to an unknown and strange realm.

Unlike the long history of the Bitter Realm, where in the past various other realms coveted the Bitter Realm and came to take a bite, this time, it was the Martial Lord who took the initiative to wage war and pacify the other realms.

Since we cannot stop the aliens from coming to the Bitter Realm, let's nip them in the bud first.

What would happen if heroes never died?

"My feet have trod the flames of war, my hands have grasped destruction!"

War will rage in the Otherworld, and destruction will befall those alien races who covet the Bitterlands.

When Wu Jun finished explaining his intention to wage war, the people of Tiandu were truly shocked. Wu Jun had always advocated the principle of "racial peace and Tiandu's neutrality," so why did things suddenly change like this?

"Because my time is running out."

"what?"

Yu Cixin was the first to jump up, ignoring everyone's gaze, and rushed to Luo Hou's side, reaching out to feel his pulse.

Luo Hou grasped her hand and comforted her, "I'm fine. What I meant was that the four demon gods are about to break the seal, and our time is running out."

This was half true and half false, but it fooled Empress Wu.

Next, Luo Hou briefly introduced the four gods of the Demon Darkness. The Eight-Headed Demon God had already been destroyed, leaving behind the God of Death, the Void, the God of No Return, and a demon named Xing Tian from the Moro Blood Realm.

The fighting spirit of the crowd was instantly ignited; it turned out there were so many demons and monsters out there!

"Martial Lord, the escape of Void from the Upper Heaven Realm prison is a dereliction of duty by the Imperial Dragon Clan. Laughing Sword Thrust requests to take command!"

When Ya Shao sent Di Longyin back to Poetic Heaven City, he learned some news about the Four Gods of Demon Darkness. Knowing the urgency of the situation, he immediately rushed back to the Bitter Realm. Xiao Ri Biao, who was bored out of his mind, came back with him.

Currently, the Imperial Dragon Clan has three dragons in the Bitter Realm. They don't care about others; they must personally capture and bring back the Void.

After the crowd's emotions were fully mobilized, Wu Jun finalized the selection of two groups:

The Heavenly Dao of the White Feather Realm was led by Wu Jun himself, accompanied by Shao Hao, Xiao Jian Dun, Mo Dao Jue Chen, and Xiao Ri Biao.

The Mud Realm is a place that absorbs the souls of the dead. If a living person does not enter through a special method, their soul will soon be scattered. Therefore, the team was led by Duanmie Chanti, who had pure demon blood and was proficient in magic, with Jing Wuhuan and Zonghengzi accompanying them.

Jing Wuhuan's Taoist arts are incredibly advanced; he has many subtle tricks to conceal his presence as a living person.

The same applies to the 361 black and white pieces, each of which can be used as a substitute.

Furthermore, since this journey to the Netherworld will not begin from the Bardo, but instead will take the route through Yama's Ghost Prison, I believe Lie Hongjiao will provide assistance.

Three days later.

The Broken Island String Boat took off with a roar, carrying everyone towards the Western Desert, and landed above the Western Huang Buddhist Realm.

The loud noise startled all the monks. Shi Zhi Jialan led Dharmakirti and others out and stared at the sky in disbelief.

Seeing Luo Hou step out of the cabin, they realized it was a false alarm.

The two sides exchanged greetings and took their seats.

"Wu Jun, Lie Hongjiao has taken in the survivors of Yanluo Ghost Prison and has led them back to their homeland."

“The right thing to do.”

Luo Hou then asked, "Saint Heng, did Dong Yu mention to you anything about the sun's return to its homeland and the Heavenly Dao of the White Feather Realm?"
