“Where is this?”
Looking around at the gray environment in front of them, the primal old devil and the others felt uneasy. Having not lived in the world outside the Pantheon Tomb for a million years, everything seemed different, especially the heaven and earth spiritual energy here, the rules of the universe, as if they were not on the same level as before.
Even inside the Pantheon Tomb, the environment was a hundred times better than here.
“We’ve arrived at the Abyss!” Alex explained.
A white cat was squatting on his shoulder. He was holding Jade’s body in his hand.
Jade hadn’t woken up yet, and no one knew what happened to her or if she would ever wake up… He was vaguely heartbroken because Jade had arrived in this other world, making her feel pretty complex.
“Do you recall what the Mystic Maiden of Nine Heavens said earlier?” the Divine Monarch White Bone spoke.
“The extraterrestrial devils have long been watching this place. The destruction of the Witch Kingdom is only the beginning. The universe has long been watched, leaving us with little time,” an ancient female god dressed in a spotless white gown said.
Alex had once heard someone address her as Diana.
“We can now not protect ourselves, too feeble to even beat a cat. What ability do we have to battle against the celestial demons?” remarked the primal old devil.
He turned to Alex and said, “Hey, little brother, if you’re the Chosen One, a great event like saving the universe should be performed by a young guy like you, who can do much more. Where‘s the sense of lingering in this arduous place now that I’m finally free? I’ll be the first to leave!”
“Wait!”
Alex screamed at him right away, “Isn’t the witch curse supposed to emerge from your body? Are you able to solve it?”
“Witch curse, what is that thing?” The primal old devil was perplexed.
“This is it,” Alex said as he displayed the primal old devil the witch curse on his body for inspection.
As a result, the primal old devil was taken aback when he saw it and exclaimed, “Little brother, where did you obtain this thing?”
Didn’t the primal old devil notice? Alex felt weird.
After understanding the situation, the primal old devil was shocked and exclaimed, “Little brother, you are now a fusion of the nine witch ancestors’ spiritual bodies. My primal old devil‘s source is, at best, an ancestor witch. If it was my side of the demonic Chi seeded curse, you should have disappeared long ago.”
“This is not your demonic Chi?” remarked Phoenix.
The people bid their goodbyes.
The subject of the Pantheon Tomb, the Witch Kingdom, and the Sinless City was finally resolved, but there were still some unanswered questions. Alex merely wanted to return home early now, to reunite with his family members.
Today, the undying clan has been wiped out. He could live in peace.
***
They had already visited the undying clan’s White Bone City. The previous epic fight was still playing out in front of their eyes. However, the city has now been reduced to rubble.
Huge bones stretched across the desert, the sky was filled with flying sand, and half of the city here was submerged under the yellow sand; if one hadn’t been reminded that the great battle took place only half a month ago, one would have mistaken this for a thousand-year-old monument.
“There is nothing left,” Shelly said, standing on an upright white bone.
“Let’s go, let’s go!”
Alex‘s mind palace was re-entered by Shelly and Ancestor Bodhi.
