Mystery: Starting with the Night Pope.

Chapter 54 Personality

"The state of the Demon Lord's projection will be severely damaged if the external entity is attacked."

Truman wrote this "prophecy" in the Book of Dreams.

"Break free from the shackles of the hidden world!"

Amanisis lightly tapped his finger, and the entire hidden world flickered for a fleeting moment, briefly intersecting with the outside world.

The Demon King's projection seized this moment, attempting to borrow even more power from its true form.

But at this moment, the "prophecy" came true.

"Sun!" The projection of the Demon King roared. The ancient sun god from the outside world had completely thrown himself into the battlefield, causing a major blow to the Demon King's main body. This blow was also reflected in the projection through that instantaneous connection.

Truman sensed something and promptly activated the divine emblem on his chest. A pure and brilliant ray of sunlight emanated from the emblem, as if a divine light had descended from the sky, directly piercing through the body of the Demon King's projection.

"Ah!" The demon projection was greatly damaged, and "Night" completely overwhelmed "Corruption".

"It's time to end this." Amanisis swung his death scythe down with a single strike.

"Die!" The projection of the Demon King quickly recovered, and two bone blades suddenly grew from his hands, which he swung upwards to deflect the Death Scythe.

It is yet another clash between the powers of "darkness" and "filth".

But this time, "Night" is clearly stronger!

The Demon King projection has almost no effect on Amanisis's power and status.

clang!

When the scythe and the filthy bone blade clashed, the whole world seemed to fall silent.

It was at this moment that two bright colors appeared in the composition, making the hidden world clear and no longer dull.

Those were the emerald green and crimson red that represented the existence of life.

That was Lilith, who had been hiding all along. Amanises created an excellent environment for her, and she seized the opportunity to find a weakness when the two powers clashed.

The composition of darkness and filth was invaded by blood, and a vine representing the power of life pierced through the projection from behind, constantly drawing power from it.

"Fabuti, you deserve to die," Lilith said coldly.

"Lilith?!" The projection of the Demon Lord stared wide-eyed, unable to comprehend the scene before it.

But He had no time to think. Amanisis placed his palm on the projected head of the demon, and that wisp of consciousness was quickly and completely annihilated by the darkness.

The power of His projection was also completely drained.

"It's a pleasure working with you." Lilith and Amanisis exchanged a glance and nodded to each other.

Truman, seeing this, hesitated to step forward.

Scary...

But in the end, all the remaining shells of that projection were swept into the Sea of ​​Dreams by Truman.

Everything here is unknown to the outside world; even the Demon King cannot perceive that his own projection has died.

Amanisis revoked the stealth effect, and the three reappeared on that void land.

"This place is strange..." Chuyao sensed the aura emanating from the island.

Truman walked around the pool in the center of the land several times and finally confirmed a certain fact.

"Related to source matter?"

Truman sensed that he seemed to have some hidden connection with the island.

The thought of distancing oneself even arose in one's heart.

The legendary "Shadow World"... Truman stopped approaching, sensing a sense of crisis.

The abyss lies deep in the ocean, very close to the legendary western continent!

Moreover, there are simply too many elements involved, such as the connection with the Astral Plane and the Mother Tree of Desire. It's not entirely incomprehensible that there would be a projection of a "Shadow World"...

"I sense a similar contamination as before," Amanisis said softly.

"Fabuti is stealing the power of something," Lilith said as she approached the pool.

The pool wasn't large, but it was already half full of water, which was a deep, almost blood-red color with a pinkish glow.

"There are two kinds." Truman keenly perceived the nature of the water in the pool.

In addition to the power from the Mother Tree of Desire, there is also the power projected from the "Shadow World"!

The Outer God's Mother Tree of Desire is constantly assaulting the barrier, stirring up the filthy waves that surge up in the abyss every so often, but the Demon Lord is also stealing the power of this Mother Tree.

He recklessly explored the Outer Gods, taking advantage of the barrier's isolation, and actively led the corruption to the bottom of the abyss. For the demon, "corruption" is power!

Just as Truman actively recalled knowledge about the Outer Gods here, establishing a connection with the Mother Tree, pollution descended.

The demon lord was also plotting something similar. He was constantly drawing in the corruption that only angels and above could fight against, and he was planning to use some kind of connection to turn it and the shadow world into his own power!

"This is insane!" Truman frowned. A slight misstep could lead to complete corruption by the Mother Tree or the Shadow World.

In Truman's view, a thousand years from now, the Demon Lord will truly be taken advantage of by the Mother Tree while recovering from his injuries!

"There are always different ways a madman can be mad," Lilith mocked.

Amanisis wholeheartedly agreed, as did the Destruction Wolf, except that unlike the Demon King, the Destruction Wolf never managed to reach the Source Castle before its death.

Of course, the other ancient gods weren't much better off.

"Take this place with you!" Amanisis nodded slightly and immediately disappeared into the entire landmass.

Truman arrived before the "Scroll of Civilization," still resisting the ever-growing tide of filth. The "distortion" of the Black Emperor's crown also caused time to stand still in the previous moment.

"The Mother Tree of Desire..." Truman looked at the illusory stars in the dazzling starry sky, which kept shining and trying to erode him.

"These contaminations are also a problem." Truman frowned and took back the two unique items.

The black emperor's crown fell upon his head, and the scroll of civilization transformed into his cloak.

"Pollution distorts!"

As emperor, he commanded a powerful force to act upon the pollution that threatened to engulf angels, forcibly annihilating it.

However, the difference in status meant that the "distorted" authority had very limited effect on these contaminations and could not succeed.

"What a hassle!" Truman slammed the Book of Dreams down on it.

The Sea of ​​Dreams descended with a roar. This time, it was no longer an illusion, but a real ocean. Endless waves submerged the pollution. In terms of status alone, the Mother Tree of Desire was at most comparable to the Book of Dreams!

However, when the Sea of ​​Dreams manifested in this starry sky, the star representing the Mother Tree outside the barrier suddenly shrank.

The connection that vaguely linked Truman to the mysterious realm beyond the stars was unilaterally severed by the Mother Tree!

The movement was so fast that Truman couldn't react in time, and gradually, a strange smile appeared on Truman's lips.

"The Mother Tree seems afraid?" Truman raised an eyebrow. "Afraid that I will corrupt Her?"
