"I should take the scepter now."

"Yes, let Moon Maiden City reappear in the desert from now on."

When the protective barrier disappeared, the ancient city reappeared in the desert people's sight. As the sandstorm swept outwards, the nomads knelt down and shouted the name of the god 'Marikata'.

Shedding the dust and sand, the golden sand gleams in the sunlight, and the surrounding oasis adorns this ancient city, where countless elves sing joyful songs.

On the path strewn with flowers and grass, the master of the desert and the mistress of the flowers walked together. Upon seeing the familiar scenery again, the goddess of flowers let out a silvery laugh, and the clear spring that fell from her sleeve transformed into an eternal source of life in the oasis, bringing hope of life to her believers.

Amidst the cheers of countless spirits and people, Su Chen swept up the yellow sand and flew towards Narimar with the Flower Goddess.

This process is much faster than planting flowers and trees.

However, as soon as Su Chen stepped into Narimar, he quickly sensed that something was amiss.

Excitement, doubt, and worry.

All sorts of chaotic emotions were written on the faces of the citizens of the royal city.

"What happened?" Flora asked in confusion. "Azir, didn't you say that Narimar was about to return to its former appearance?"

"Isn't this already it?"

"Who said anything about the layout of the city?"

Su Chen also found it strange. He led the Flower Goddess straight to the royal palace, but soon realized that the three ascendants were not in the royal city. Not only that, but there were also far fewer guards.

Aatrox, the captain of the royal guards responsible for protecting the capital, was not present. Instead, a blond-haired man and an unidentified flying creature were temporarily assigned to the duty of protecting the capital.

When Ying and Paimon saw Su Chen, they were so frightened that they immediately tried to perform a ritual to summon Hu Tao to exorcise the ghost.

"You're the ghost," Su Chen said speechlessly. "I'm not dead yet, why are you cursing me?"

Although he actually died several times, he ultimately survived.

"You're really not dead?" Paimon cautiously poked Su Chen and found that his skin was bouncy and warm, so he finally felt relieved. "Phew~ You scared me to death. So many days have passed, we thought you were dead."

"So what exactly happened?" Su Chen asked.

Ying asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"What's going on?"

"I was arrested that day and then disappeared."

“Uh…” Su Chen thought for a moment and said, “I’m a sage, so it’s reasonable for me to have a few friends in Sumeru, right? Then a friend of mine invited me to come and help Shurima with the reconstruction work. You know, everyone here is just a bunch of roughnecks with no culture.”

Ying wanted to say, "Are you kidding me?" But then she thought of Aatrox and the other two, and suddenly everything seemed to make perfect sense.

"And who is she?" Ying looked at the Flower Goddess beside Su Chen.

I was immediately struck by her beauty; she was stunning, pure, elegant, and noble—no words could adequately describe her beauty.

"Oh, this is the friend I was just talking about. You can call her Sister Hua."

The Flower Goddess couldn't help but roll her eyes.

“I still don’t believe it,” Paimon said in a low voice.

"This is not important anymore."

Ying shook her head.

Yes, it doesn't matter anymore.

Because there are indeed bigger things to pay attention to right now—

"The Grass God, along with Aatrox and many desert guards, has gone to attack Sumeru."

Su Chen: "Hmm...hmm?"

...

Rainforest, a hidden stronghold created by God.

At this moment, an earth-shattering battle is breaking out here.

A terrifying power erupted from the ground, a sacred golden light intertwined with a dark and ominous force, shaking the entire earth. Animals in the nearby forest were terrified and fled in panic. The group of thirty people, the forest rangers, and other law enforcement personnel were also startled by the commotion.

"what happens?!"

"My God, what kind of power is that?"

Even getting close is impossible; the mere amount of power emanating from underground is enough to terrify mortals. Faced with such immense power, ordinary people cannot muster even the slightest resistance.

A figure rushed from the direction of Huacheng Guo, passed through the woods, and landed in front of a group of forest rangers.

"Lord Tinari!"

The forest rangers shouted in unison.

"What's going on?" Tina, the forest ranger of Daocheng Forest, a handsome man with black hair and animal ears, looked into the distance, where the terrifying power was gradually gathering in the sky.

"I don't know, it seems like something is about to come out."

"Could it be a terrifying behemoth?"

"There are two forces."

Tinali activated the power of the Eye of God and was about to brave the impact of the power to investigate when suddenly the earth roared and a huge figure burst out from underground, causing the mountains to collapse and the earth to split open!

Rumble~~

The terrifying force swept in like a flood, causing the earth and trees to crumble and the mountains to collapse wherever it went.

Tina's expression changed drastically: "Retreat!"

Those who were stunned into silence finally reacted after hearing the sound, turned around and fled with all their might.

Hurry!

Hurry up!

A second or a step later, and you'd be dead!

Fortunately, they wisely chose not to get too close. Once they reached a high slope, the collapse finally stopped. Looking at the rubble and mud that were almost right under their heels, everyone couldn't help but swallow hard.

Look up again.

All that could be seen was a colossal figure descending from the sky—a beast-headed human, wielding a scepter, radiating unparalleled and terrifying power.

A group of figures appeared around the giant. These people looked remarkably alike, some with terrifying black flames surging from their hands, known as Black Flame Serpents, derived from the power of a demon god's remnants. Others were tainted with even more terrifying taboos and launched an attack on the beast-headed giant.

In addition, a group of figures rushed out from the stronghold buried in the ruins. They each drove the elemental cannons that had been prepared in advance, and with the power of the Evil Eye, they unleashed a terrifying burst of power.

The sudden turn of events left everyone in Sumeru City stunned.

Because the stronghold was not far from Sumeru City, the people in the city could even see the shadow cast by the giant when they looked in that direction. The golden scepter fell, each time bringing tremendous power like divine punishment, while the figures surrounding him were swatted away one by one, almost like mosquitoes being swatted.

"That's... the Desert Reaper?!"

Once recorded among countless destroyed desert civilizations, and peered at by scholars, Shurima is home to a terrifying being known as the 'Desert Reaper'. In the early stages of Shurima's development, it was he who led countless guards to conquer all directions, establishing vast territories for Shurima.

Among the conquered civilizations, whether tribes or city-states, there are records and descriptions of this terrible god of death.

However, even though they had seen it in history and marveled at the terror of the desert reaper, seeing it with their own eyes still left everyone feeling incredulous, and then... a sense of horror spread through their hearts—the desert emperor has returned, and the reaper, carrying the emperor's will, has come to attack the rainforest!

"Where is the Grass God? Didn't He go to the desert?"

"Could it be that Lord Grass God has already...?"

"Oh my god, who can stop this terrible demon?"

Inside the Institute of Instruction, the sages who remained behind turned pale as they looked at the terrifying giant that resembled a god.

Because the location of the giant is precisely where the Great Sage Azhar is carrying out his plan.

Those sages involved in the plan knew very well what it contained... Wait, didn't the Great Sage say that today would be the most significant day in Sumeru's history? Humanity ascended to godhood, but... what about humanity?

There was no time to think. The battle to annihilate the giants had spread from underground to the surface, and the safety of Sumeru City was in danger. The terrifying black flames swept in all directions. The giants were not afraid, but mortals could not withstand it!

tumultuous!

Black flames ignited the forest, covering the earth and instantly engulfing the outer walls of Sumeru City, sweeping towards the city along the sacred tree.

The people in the city were terrified and fled in screams, but how could they outrun the terrifying power of the demon god?

Just then, Nasus strode over, swung his scepter forcefully, and threw the black flames flying—BOOM! The contracting force exploded in the air, bursting forth like sparks.

Seeing this, the PhD students, who were already considering giving up, suddenly had some bold ideas.

"He's too strong. If we fight him head-on, we'll all die!"

"He wanted to protect Sumeru City."

"That's his weakness."

"He's cursed; he won't last much longer!"

The power of the curse has overflowed from his body, frantically eroding Nasus. It is the punishment that the laws of nature impose on those who transgress. Even Nasus must be careful at all times and use the power of the Ascended to suppress it.

As the sun disk fell silent, the power within him also declined to its lowest point. If it hadn't been rekindled some time ago, he wouldn't have been able to transform into the Grim Reaper to fight at this moment.

However, if this power is used entirely for fighting, the curse will take the opportunity to erode it.

The Doctor saw this and decided to focus on Sumeru City, dragging the situation into a long and protracted war.

"Um..."

A dangerous glint flashed in Nasus's eyes.

As intelligent as he is, how could he not see through the doctor's plan?

Although his power was enough to kill the Doctor, there were simply too many of the Doctor's 'slices,' and each one was very strong. If he were at his peak, he could easily deal with them, but not now.

With these thoughts in mind, Nasus stood outside Sumeru City and suddenly slammed his scepter into the ground, releasing power that spread outwards, instantly protecting him and the entire city of Sumeru.

This action startled the doctor, and after his attempts to attack failed to achieve much, several of him simultaneously questioned him.

"Nasus! Are you scared?"

"The former Grim Reaper of the Desert has now become a coward!"

"Is this the Shurima glory you're so proud of?"

One figure after another appeared in the air.

Nasus's eyes gleamed with a calm light as he spoke in a low voice, "True wisdom is the ability to see the past and the future. In my eyes, your future is already predetermined."
