Shadow Hack - Chapter 748
Chapter 748: Sleeping Beauty
After entering the Devil Path, Li Yunmu had obtained the strength of the world tree. The power circulating inside his body quickly began to overflow out of it.
Li Yunmu’s eyes turned black, but he still preserved a hint of clear-headedness while in the Dark State which was related to him turning into a devil.
Previously, Li Yunmu had never been conscious in the Dark State because of the collision of light and dark attribute power, which caused him to lose his consciousness.
But things were different right then. He had turned into a devil, so only dark attribute power remained in his body. After entering the Dark State, his dark attribute power was continuously increasing without any rejection, forming a complete fusion.
Li Yunmu was the true master of the devil world at that moment. He was like a monarch looking down from the heaven, even subduing Li Ying, who was by his side.
“Fiend Origin!”
Li Yunmu had already turned into a devil, so he didn’t care about the side effects of the Fiend Origin.
The dark attribute power congealed to form an enormous dark whirlpool. Each and every demonic being and dark attribute power was thoroughly absorbed by it.
Li Ying looked at Li Yunmu’s movement in mid-air, flabbergasted to the point of speechlessness. What exactly did he intend to do?
Not only the dark essence of the dark abyss, but even the darkness shrouding Flowing Moon City was absorbed.
Li Ying also lost control of his body, and he advanced toward the whirlpool step by step…
“No, you reckless guy, you lied to me!”
Li Yunmu sneered at him. “You wanted me to be your subordinate, what the hell were you thinking? The entire Devil World is mine! I am the master of the Devil World. But you can be relieved, I will definitely destroy the Primordial God World and fulfill your heart’s desire!”
“Ah! Ah ah ah ah!”
Li Ying’s miserable shriek echoed when the Fiend Origin absorbed him.
A series of miserable wails echoed throughout the Origin World when countless devils entered the Fiend Origin’s dark attribute whirlpool and gradually turned into the fountainhead for Li Yunmu’s strength.
Li Yunmu was even more ambitious, however. He wanted to absorb the entire world tree so that he would possess boundless and inexhaustible source of power.
When Li Yunmu intended to devour the world tree, Yuan Biyao appeared suddenly and stopped him!
“Don’t! You cannot destroy the world tree, or all of the Ancient Lands would be destroyed.”
“Why do you say that?” Li Yunmu coldly looked at Yuan Biyao.
She took a deep breath and said, “Because this world tree is related to the divine tree of the Primordial God World. The two trees complement each other and allow people to increase their strength. The divine tree represents hope, while the world tree represents despair.
“The two types of power have been linked for many years, creating the difference between gods and devils. If you destroy the world tree, the divine tree will also disappear with it. At that time, the entire world will be swarmed by the two types of powers. The gods and devils will be stripped of their power, which would result in the heaven falling and earth rending. The whole world will be destroyed.”
Li Yunmu narrowed his eyes. He wanted to know whether Yuan Biyao’s words were true or false, but the system was sleeping, and even if it hadn’t entered the dormant state, Li Yunmu would still be unable to communicate with it after he turned into a devil. That made him unable to ascertain whether Yuan Biyao’s words were true or not.
But it was better to be safe than sorry. If the world was truly destroyed, everything he had done previously would be a waste. Moreover, his loved ones were still in Asgard, so he couldn’t be impulsive.
Li Yunmu pulled back after thinking about it. Then he looked at the Flowing Moon City, which was not far away from the. It was a beautiful city, but unfortunately it was filled with dead people.
Li Yunmu’ dark attribute power instantly shrouded the Flowing Moon City, following which the city was again filled with vitality after being illuminated by his dark power.
The dead people in the city obtained another life and surprisingly regained consciousness. Being enveloped by the dark attribute power, they could continue to remain alive without any pressure.
When Yuan Biyao looked at the beautiful Flowing Moon City, she couldn’t help but sigh. “The devils of the Devil World were absorbed by you?”
Li Yunmu displayed his Fiend Origin and coldly said, “Yes! Don’t tell me you also want to be absorbed by me?”
“Li Yunmu, have you recovered your consciousness? I beg you, I truly don’t want you to remain in your present state. I want the original Li Yunmu to return!” Yuan Biyao said while trembling. She had given voice to her inner desire.
The reason why she had come to the Devil World was to persuade Li Yunmu to return.
Li Yunmu coldly sneered at her. “I am the master of the Devil World, I am the heavens. Why would I want to return to my original state? I have obtained so much power that I can even capture the Ancient Lands.”
“Don’t tell me that you truly intend to destroy the Primordial God World? That is my former homeland, and even if Fuxi and Nuwa acted that way in front of you, you still cannot destroy the Primordial God World. That would be an unreasonable action. You mustn’t make another mistake, alright? Li Yunmu!” Yuan Biyao tried to patiently dissuade him.
However Li Yunmu in his Dark State had already forgotten about Yuan Biyao’s situation and coldly said, “Too troublesome! It’s none of your business whatever I do.”
Those words stabbed Yuan Biyao’s heart, and it crumbled into pieces. But she could clearly sense that Li Yunmu still cared about her. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have pretended to kill her to save her in front of Li Ying.
“You clearly know who I am. You knowingly assisted me, so why can’t you return to your original state?”
Yuan Biyao sobbed crazily. She was truly afraid that Li Yunmu would destroy the Primordial God World on an impulse, then how would she give an explanation to Fuxi and Nuwa?
Li Yunmu slowly proceeded toward the world tree. The woman inside was still lying expressionlessly with her eyes closed as if her consciousness was gone.
Li Yunmu sighed. “A true beauty.”
The woman in the world tree wore white clothes and had fair skin as well as a delicate face without any flaws.
Li Yunmu congealed the dark attribute power in his hand and poured it into her body.
