Chapter 3909: Dragon King Palace is damaged

At this moment, Ye Bufan felt an endless fear rising from the bottom of his heart, his scalp tingling, and the hairs on his body standing on end.

Extreme fear, a feeling he hadn't experienced in many years.

"Not good, he's going to self-destruct!"

Ye Bufan had grown through combat for so many years, his experience was extremely rich, and he immediately realized what was happening.

He had originally intended to cripple and explode the opponent's Clone, just like in the Yuangu Secret Realm, and then obtain the Devil Emperor's Primordial Blood from it.

Now it seemed impossible; the ruthlessness of this Clone was beyond imagination, as it directly chose to self-destruct.

At this moment, he could no longer care about anything else; his powerful Mental Energy swept wildly in all directions, enveloping everyone, and then instantly he hid inside the Dragon King Palace.

Fortunately, his reaction was quick enough; just as his figure disappeared, an earth-shattering explosion rang out.

Violent energy swept in all directions; the momentum was even more terrifying than a mushroom cloud on Earth.

The Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor was originally a powerful ancient being, and his Clone not only contained a drop of the Devil Emperor's Primordial Blood but had also devoured countless Heaven And Earth Treasures over the years, making it much stronger than the one in the Yuangu Secret Realm.

Under such circumstances, the power of its self-destruction was unimaginable.

Ye Bufan led everyone into the Dragon King Palace, and only then did the extreme fear slowly dissipate from his heart.

But before he could let his guard down, the entire Dragon King Palace suddenly began to shake, as if mountains were collapsing and the earth was splitting apart.

"Rumble!"

Mountains collapsed, rivers reversed their flow, and even the massive Dragon King Island split into two halves down the middle.

"This…"

Ye Bufan and Situ Dianmo, among others, showed expressions of extreme horror; Dragon King Island was an independent Small World, self-contained, and in the past, no matter how much trouble they encountered, hiding here always kept them safe.

But this time was clearly different; the Devil Emperor's Clone's self-destruction actually had a tremendous impact even here.

Fortunately, the shaking didn't last long, and soon peace was restored.

However, Ye Bufan's expression remained grim; as the controller of the Dragon King Palace, he could clearly feel how great the damage sustained was.

A huge crack appeared at the boundary of the Dragon King Palace, meaning that the self-destruction just now had actually cracked this Small World.

Although it hadn't reached the point of collapse, the Spiritual Qi here began to leak out continuously, and it wouldn't be long before this place would dry up, completely becoming a废弃 Space.

Xuan Yuan Linglong asked, "Ye Dage, what exactly happened? What's going on?" Ye Bufan's expression was solemn: "We were still too slow; the Dragon King Palace's own space didn't have time to fully close and was hit by the self-destruction, causing immense damage."

Shen Qiyun asked anxiously, "How is it? Is it serious?"

"Very serious. Although the Dragon King Palace hasn't completely collapsed, a huge crack has appeared. If this continues, it won't be able to retain a single trace of Spiritual Qi in the future and will completely become a wasteland.

Most importantly, if this continues, and it experiences another impact, even if it's much weaker than this one, the space is very likely to collapse.

At that time, everything inside will be destroyed, including us."

"This…"

At this, everyone's expressions became solemn, realizing how serious the problem was.

It was no exaggeration to say that the Dragon King Palace had been more than half destroyed after this battle and was no longer the incredibly safe haven it once was.

"Forget it, don't think about these things for now. It's good that everyone is alive."

Ye Bufan's gaze swept around, checking on everyone's condition, "How is everyone? No one is hurt, right?"

He looked around; Ye Tian, Situ Dianmo, Leng Qingqiu, Xuan Yuan Linglong, Xiaoqing, Meiqi, and others had all been brought in.

However, a few people were missing: Skeleton Taoist, Iron Winged Black Crow King, and Black Dragon Beast from Burial Immortal Valley.

Ye Bufan brought people into the Dragon King Palace through Mental Energy, requiring the other party's absolute trust and obedience, with not the slightest resistance.

Just now, these one person and two beasts clearly didn't comply; they didn't know what was happening, nor did they know what Ye Bufan intended to do with them.

Naturally, they wouldn't willingly follow him into the Dragon King Palace, and as a result, they remained outside.

Finding that none of his own people were missing, Ye Bufan finally relaxed.

As for Skeleton Taoist and the other two, if they died, they died; he didn't care at all. Anyway, he had given them a chance and had done his utmost; if they didn't trust him, he couldn't blame anyone else.

Then, he reached out and grabbed, and the Dark Demonic Crystal flew over.

Lu Banxia, trapped inside, was both surprised and delighted upon seeing Ye Bufan, her face filled with sorrow, but in her Primordial Spirit state, she had no tears.

Ye Bufan waved his hand, the Dark Demonic Crystal shattered, and Lu Banxia regained her freedom.

"Ye Dage."

Although she was only a Primordial Spirit, she still threw herself into Ye Bufan's arms, venting the sorrow that had accumulated in her heart for many days.

After her Ascension, she had harbored beautiful dreams, thinking that after becoming an Immortal, she could stay with Ye Dage forever and even become a great help to him.

But she never expected to be directly brought to the Dark Shadow Gate, entering a den of danger, losing her Physical Body, and having her Primordial Spirit stripped away.

Not only did she fail to help, but she almost harmed Ye Dage instead.

Fortunately, all of that was over now; the man she deeply loved was safe and sound and had rescued her.

"Alright, now is not the time to cry."

Ye Bufan comforted her, "How do you feel now?"

"I… I lost my Physical Body…"

Mentioning her Physical Body, Lu Banxia was filled with sadness, unaware that it was now under Ye Bufan's control.

"And your Primordial Spirit? How does it feel?"

Ye Bufan said, while scanning her with his Divine Sense.

To his surprise, Lu Banxia's Primordial Spirit was remarkably powerful now, having reached the highest Realm of Immortal Venerable Peak.

If it weren't for the suppression of the rules here, it might have advanced further.

"The Primordial Spirit feels very good."

For many days, Lu Banxia had been worried about Ye Bufan, and coupled with her bleak future, she had never truly experienced the state of her own Primordial Spirit.

At this moment, with a little concentration, she instantly felt her own strength.

However, this was not surprising; the Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor, in order to maximize the effectiveness of the Wu Spirit Body's Primordial Spirit, had been nourishing her Primordial Spirit with various Heaven And Earth Treasures.

As an ancient Devil Emperor, he naturally possessed endless means and also controlled a large number of treasures.

It was precisely because of this that Lu Banxia's Primordial Spirit soared all the way from Void Immortal to Immortal Venerable Peak.

"Not bad, truly not bad."

Ye Bufan nodded in satisfaction. If Lu Banxia had Cultivated step by step after her Ascension, even if she was a Wu Spirit Body, she probably wouldn't have reached her current Realm.

But by a strange twist of fate, her Primordial Spirit was stripped away by the Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor, and her Physical Body was taken over by Grand Elder Hong Niangzi of the Dark Shadow Gate.

With the two parts Cultivating separately, the speed of improvement was beyond imagination; both her Physical Body and Primordial Spirit had reached Immortal Venerable Peak.

Now, what needed to be done was to reclaim her Physical Body and reunite the two.

"Banxia, listen to me…"

Ye Bufan briefly explained the matter of Hong Niangzi, finally saying, "Your Physical Body is not only intact now but has also reached Immortal Venerable Peak.

Later, you will follow my arrangements and reclaim your Physical Body."
