My Beautiful Duchess Wife

In an instant, they vanished without a trace. Or rather, they were utterly annihilated. Indeed, the remaining two years might be the most peaceful period on this continent.

Furthermore, it can record the prosperity and civilization within the epic.

Machiel smiled slightly and suddenly said, "The continent now is the true continent of peace. However, I am very worried about the situation on the other side of the Abyss!" As the original city of human leaders, the city of living beings, it was now publicly known. However, the matter of entering the Abyss was somewhat unavoidable.

Only high-ranking gods can truly enter. Otherwise, there's no way they can even get a tiny bit inside. Even someone as powerful as Blue Demon is absolutely out of the question. Blue Demon glanced at Shia; at this moment, the two of them, along with Elizabeth, were all on the verge of a breakthrough.

As long as they can truly break through, then they can enter. They can go and help those lovely and respectable people. Furthermore, they can offer them a small but powerful force! "At most, in three more years, we will definitely be able to break through. Therefore, the three of us may soon go into seclusion. Please bear with us!" Shia stood up and bowed deeply.

Elizabeth and Blue Demon both stood up and bowed.

Fusen laughed heartily and quickly stood up. After waving his hands repeatedly, he said with a smile, "Go ahead! If I had such talent, I would also go into seclusion! It's just a pity... alas..."

"As for the Abyss, we really need to trouble you! Hehe... We can't be of much help!" Machir said with a smile.

The three Blue Demons smiled and nodded. They all rose and, heading towards their respective desired locations for seclusion, suddenly took flight and disappeared into the sky…

Chapter Forty-Eight: The Arrival of the Newcomer

The deep darkness was now replaced by a golden light, as brilliant and radiant as the sun in the sky. This transformed the darkness, making it seem unlike darkness at all.

Instead, it was as if I had entered a world of light. Or perhaps, a true world of fire. The light dispelled the darkness.

Those true rays of light could even annihilate darkness. Although she was standing far away, the light still stung the Queen of the Underworld's eyes.

She couldn't understand why Lin Peng, who was almost completely drained of his soul, was smiling again and again in this soul state.

Now, it seems there's always the possibility of them opening their eyes at any moment.

If this continues, he might even be killed within the space he created himself. Because, at this moment, the light emanating from Lin Peng's soul is growing ever brighter.

Perhaps, in the next instant, he can break through his dark domain! And at this moment, Lin Peng seems to be just as the Queen of the Underworld had imagined.

Incredibly, he opened his eyes all at once. A golden light even shone from the eyes of that soul entity. A smile played on his lips, though darkness still pressed down on his body.

However, Lin Peng looked extremely energetic at this moment. He showed no signs of fatigue whatsoever, nor did he appear to be exerting himself in the slightest.

"Are you surprised?" Lin Peng said calmly, as if he had already made up his mind when he said this. Moreover, there was a hint of indifference in his voice.

Like a carefree hermit, he cared nothing for his own death. He cared nothing for anything related to him. He simply spoke casually, as if having a conversation.

The Queen of the Underworld was shocked, somewhat astonished by Lin Peng's transformation, and even more so by his current strength. He spoke so easily, without showing any sign of strain.

Therefore, he can definitely say that he possesses formidable strength and is capable of confronting them head-on, rather than appearing somewhat overwhelmed at the beginning.

"What kind of illusion did you experience that allowed you to increase your strength? Now, at least, you have the strength to fight me!" The Queen of the Underworld narrowed her eyes and said seriously.

Within the space she controls, she still possesses the power to fight. It's conceivable that such strength is beyond the comprehension of the Queen of the Underworld.

Of course, if it takes time, we can afford to wait. After all, this is the deepest part of the universe, and it embodies all the power of darkness.

This kind of time-consuming process might actually be somewhat advantageous to her. The Queen of the Underworld had never considered this. No one is without a dark side.

Furthermore, she hadn't considered that no one could escape the corrosive influence of darkness. Therefore, she wasn't really afraid of this. She slowly sat cross-legged in the void, quietly and coldly staring at Lin Peng.

At the same time, streams of darkness began to materialize into real power, seemingly intent on annihilating Lin Peng's soul and spirit. His lips curled into a pursed smile.

There was no smile, no more of the initial ease.

At this moment, she had to exert tremendous force to truly subdue Lin Peng. Otherwise, she would simply be wasting her time with him.

Therefore, the dark power it manipulated was now as vast as heaven and earth. All its power pressed directly onto Lin Peng's soul.

Lin Peng, however, was different. At this moment, he was like a newborn baby, eager to show off. The golden light suddenly illuminated the entire space.

In this dark space, there was no darkness to be seen. Instead, it transformed into the true realm of the Sun God. Everywhere, there was that radiant light.

A bead of sweat appeared on the Queen of the Underworld's forehead. The golden light had inflicted considerable damage on her, especially from the mere confrontation.

It seemed she had actually suffered a slight disadvantage. After all, those rays of light could actually destroy the power of darkness. Therefore, her losses were also quite significant.

Outside the sealing barrier, almost all the experts opened their eyes at once. Some looked into the seal, puzzled, but couldn't see anything clearly.

"What on earth happened? Suddenly, the dark power stopped attacking the seal. It's as if it's vanished into silence!" Harris frowned, looking incredulous. Poseidon, standing to the side, also looked somewhat bewildered, both glancing at the Creator and the Ancestor.

The Creator and the Ancestor finally opened their eyes. However, they both frowned, as if they had realized something, and their expressions turned pale with shock.

"How could this kid be so reckless as to enter that dark space!" Genesis spoke first, his voice tinged with helplessness and a hint of calm.

The ancestor, however, had no such thoughts. He simply burst into laughter, as if he had witnessed something very gratifying.

"Not bad, to actually force that woman to use that spatial ability with the strength of a high-level god, hehe, as long as we can hold on, we'll win!" The ancestor's words stunned both of the two god-kings. Then, amidst their shock, they were also filled with doubt. Just what kind of power could be so formidable?

This directly forced Darkness to resort to its ultimate move. And, would it really take so much power to suppress them? "Then, should we go in and take a look? Anyway, Darkness's power seems to have decreased significantly. It might not affect us. We could join the battle!" The Nine-Tailed Fox was the first to suggest an attack plan. Of course, after a moment of contemplation, the Creator and the Ancestor ultimately shook their heads.

Who knows, it might actually be affected again in the end.

If things really get affected again, nobody knows whether they'll be able to help or even make things worse. This is a crucial moment for Lin Peng.

But the Queen of the Underworld is also at a crucial moment. If that woman is truly angered, and she decides to wipe them all out, then it's truly the end.

At least, we can set up a defense here. At least, there's still a last line of defense! Most of the time, almost everyone would think this way. But even if the Nine-Tailed Fox really wanted to break in now, perhaps the other gods would do their best to stop her.

So, after giving a cold snort, he really couldn't be bothered to think about it anymore. However, a casual glance made Poseidon's heart skip a beat.

This woman wouldn't actually do anything outrageous that would put them in a difficult position, would she? After all, helping Lin Peng right now isn't a good solution either.

Ultimately, it depends on him.

"Huh...where's Lin Peng?" Just as the gods were preoccupied with their own affairs, a clear voice rang out. Shia, Blue Demon, and Elizabeth suddenly appeared not far away.

The Creator and the Ancestor seemed to have anticipated this. Poseidon, however, smiled slightly when he saw the Blue Demon.

With Blue Demon's current strength, he has indeed reached the level of a high-ranking god. Even among high-ranking gods, he is definitely considered powerful.

It seems I really didn't misjudge him.

The nine-tailed fox perked up immediately upon seeing Shia. Pointing to the Creator and the Ancestor in the distance, she said, "Lin Peng was tricked into that abyss by them!" Shia was taken aback, while Elizabeth looked at the Creator and the Ancestor with a strange expression. These two didn't seem like the kind of people they were.

"What?! Lin Peng actually went straight into the abyss!" Shia exclaimed in surprise, her voice rising slightly. The Creator and the Ancestor exchanged a glance, then both gave a wry smile…

Chapter 49 The Dark Path (Part 1)

Even if they only had such thoughts in the past, and never actually took any action, for them, having such thoughts is still a huge mistake. It's an unforgivable error.

Looking at Shia and the Nine-Tailed Fox, there was a sense of guilt in their eyes. Shia and Elizabeth frowned for a moment, then suddenly wanted to rush inside.

The Moon Goddess and the God of War, among others, quickly intervened. Had these two women truly gone mad? Was it really necessary?

What if they actually get inside and lose their minds? Then it won't be helping, it will be making things worse. Even the nine-tailed fox understands this perfectly well.

However, upon seeing the two women, both the Ancestor and the Creator suddenly had some ideas. Poseidon suddenly burst out laughing.

Looking at Blue Demon, he said, "Not bad, you've actually broken through to the level of a High God in such a short time. At least, I didn't misjudge you! However, in the days to come, you must also strengthen your will and nature!"

As he spoke, a flash of blue light appeared suddenly, and he entered the seal. This moment surprised both the Creator and the Ancestor.

After a moment, as if they had suddenly understood, the corners of their mouths slightly parted. They both waved their hands towards Shia and Elizabeth.

Suddenly, a gentle force caused the two of them to sit down cross-legged. Harris, looking surprised, was also somewhat stunned. He was filled with astonishment.

"This place will be under Harris's control. The Ancestor and I must go in. Otherwise, even if this stalemate continues, we won't feel at ease!" The Creator said calmly, his eyes slightly narrowed, a bitter expression on his face. He then glanced at the Ancestor, who shared the same expression.

The two nodded slightly and entered the seal.

Harris had already noticed the Nine-Tailed Fox's unusual movements, so after simply chuckling, he and Luna sat down next to the Nine-Tailed Fox.

To prevent this, the guy turned around and tried to enter the seal.

In his view, Poseidon, the creator, and the ancestor must possess a powerful willpower that allows them to temporarily maintain their true nature. Therefore, they are allowed to enter.

However, even a low-level high god like the Nine-Tailed Fox might suddenly enter an illusion, perhaps because of Lin Peng.

If I actually get involved, it won't just be a case of doing more harm than good. I might even be taken advantage of.

The dark world was no longer so dark. Instead, a few rays of light appeared, shimmering little by little in this dark and silent world.

The Creator and the Ancestor stood silently in the darkness. However, they felt no palpitations; instead, a sudden warmth arose within them.

In the distance, Poseidon transformed into his dragon form and slowly swam towards the stairs. Meanwhile, Hades, in the dark world, had already noticed the situation outside.

He remained seated quietly, watching Lin Peng opposite him, who continued to protect him with that powerful golden light. His eyes were exceptionally cold, even carrying a strange undertone.

"Your brothers and ancestors have already entered the Abyss. Aren't you afraid?" A long silence followed, the duration of which was unclear.

Perhaps, he's been in this space for several years already. But at this moment, Lin Peng is still sitting cross-legged with a calm smile.

Hearing these words, he still didn't open his eyes.

She simply smiled even more broadly. She pursed her lips slightly and said, "I knew they would come, but Harris, I doubt he'd be!"

"why?"

The Queen of the Underworld seemed utterly bewildered, giving him a look that seemed to ask, "How did you know?" Lin Peng, however, opened his eyes: "Because when he came, he already handed you over to me! I can handle it; he doesn't need to face it at all. Of course, perhaps he really will come!" He tilted his head, and the golden light within his soul shone even brighter, as intense as a sun. Perhaps, an explosion might actually occur in the next second! "Handed me over to you? Heh…aren't you afraid that after they lose their minds and true nature, they'll turn around and attack you?" The Queen of the Underworld still seemed somewhat unwilling.

Once again, he spoke in that seductive tone.

Lin Peng shook his head and laughed, "Speaking of which, your talent isn't scary at all. It's completely useless against people with strong minds and natures! Of course, it seems that only the Creator and the Ancestor can withstand the power of this dark force. As for the little snake, it might actually be in some danger!"

The Queen of the Underworld was taken aback, not expecting this guy to say such a thing. She began to look at him with a different eye. At least, he shouldn't lose face now, even if he's losing the battle, right? On the outer steps, Poseidon, now in his dragon form, coldly stared ahead. A massive dark vortex, and Lin Peng standing before it.

At this moment, Lin Peng's eyes held a hint of confusion. It seemed that what stood before the vortex was merely a walking corpse, devoid of spirit and soul.

Poseidon was slightly stunned. Suddenly, with a flick of its tail, a wave of ice carrying immense force rose up. However, just as it approached Lin Peng...

Yet, it vanished without a trace in an instant.

It was as if they were directly swallowed up by the vortex. Behind them, the Creator and the Ancestor had arrived, silently watching the vortex.

They all laughed.

"This is the ultimate killing move of the dark power. I didn't expect that it would be used so directly!" Genesis said with a faint smile.

The old ancestor nodded seriously. Poseidon certainly knew what this dark, deadly move was like. However, no one had ever experienced it firsthand.

The two who had already experienced it seemed somewhat indifferent at this point. In any case, it definitely wasn't as easy as they described.

At this moment, Lin Peng is perhaps just a physical body standing here. It's absolutely impossible for any soul to exist within that body; this alone is enough to tell.

This deadly move might be related to the soul.
