*Boooom, boooom…* Suddenly, deafening rumbles erupted at the edge of outer space.

Looking toward the source, one could see three streaks of radiant light intertwining, tearing across tens of thousands of meters in space.

One after another, pitch-black fissures spread like the gaping maws of an abyss, exuding an aura of utter annihilation.

Tier-6, and not just one, a full three Eternal Overlords were locked in a brutal battle within the starry expanse.

Dang Mo, Crimson Emperor and a Void Emperor who had emerged from the Void Space.

*Squilish…*Suddenly, a sharp, ripping sound rang out, before a scythe-like arm, shimmering with violet energy slashed toward Dang Mo.

Dang Mo, without a moment of hesitation, channeled his Spiritual Energy, and promptly retreated.

In fact, he didn’t dare to hesitate, for no one understood the terror of this scythe better than him.

Even the Tier-6 Spirit Armor he wore had failed to last a single breath before it was shredded to pieces.

That moment had left him shaken to his core.

And now, seeing the scythe swing toward him once more, he instinctively fled as far as possible.

“The Void Clan’s ability to bypass defenses…is truly terrifying.”

His voice was grave, laced with a hint of lingering dread.

He had only heard rumors before. But now, witnessing it firsthand, he realized that the Void Clan was even more terrifying than legend had told.

Especially this unfathomable Void Emperor, his very presence sent chills down his spine.

*Hoooo…* Exhaling a long, deep breath, Crimson Emperor, clad in resplendent robes, suddenly warned, “Be careful, he’s about to disappear again.”

“Mhmm.” With a slight nod, Dang Mo and Crimson Emperor’s pupils constricted simultaneously, for at that moment, the Mantis-like, fearsome figure had once again vanished silently into the cosmic void.

It was Camouflage—Zi Lian’s earliest ability.

And as Zi Lian continued to evolve, so did this ability. Now, it had reached the point where even Tier-6 Overlords dreaded it.

The sight of him completely vanishing right under their very eyes, leaving them not unable to detect even the faintest trace, was rather dreadful and suffocating.

And worse still, this Void Emperor was a natural-born assassin.

If his first strike failed, he would simply withdraw and wait for another opening.

*Haaaa…* With a heavy sigh, Dang Mo and Crimson Emperor pressed their backs together, scanning their surroundings with utmost vigilance.

At this moment, they couldn’t help but feel fortunate.

Had only one of them come, they wouldn’t have left unscathed, if they even survived at all.

Against a top-tier assassin who could vanish into the shadows at any moment, they had no solid countermeasures.

Especially one from the Void Clan, capable of ignoring most defenses.

“Ugh…” As silence stretched on, the situation only grew more daunting for Dang Mo and Crimson Emperor.

….

Meanwhile, on Blood Demon Planet…

While Zi Lian tangled with Heavenly Court’s two Eternal Overlords, the battle on Blood Demon Planet raged fiercely.

Even a mountain range of over 100,000 mountains had been blasted apart, leaving behind a landscape of utter devastation.

At this moment, the top powerhouses of the Society of Demons and Fiends had begun their true clash with Heavenly Court’s elite forces.

Although this time, the Heavenly Court’s elites came to annihilate the Society of Demons and Fiends…

However, Blood Demon Planet, as the heart of the Society of Demons and Fiends, was not a place that could be besieged at will.

Moreover, this time, accompanying Zi Lian was none other than Yu Zi Yu’s first disciple, Shalira.

Her forte was psychic detection, and she had already scanned the entire planet.

Not to mention a large-scale invasion like this, even the arrival of a single unknown powerhouse wouldn’t escape her surveillance. Thus, to the utter shock of Heavenly Court, the scattered Society of Demons and Fiends powerhouses actually began to converge.

And not only that—they formed a tight encirclement, layer upon layer, trapping Heavenly Court’s forces within.

“Damn it… How do they know our every move?!”

“No idea… but this time, we’re in real trouble…”

…

Amidst rising curses and tense murmurs, Heavenly Court’s forces grew increasingly solemn.

They were not in an ordinary predicament.

Actually, their original plan had been to divide and conquer. However, now, as they spotted the fiendish figures standing like silent titans on the distant horizon, they realized, the choice was no longer theirs to make.

“Fight!” With a resonant, determined shout, one of the 12 Zodiacs shot forward.

“Alright!”

“Fight it is, then!”

“When have we, the Heavenly Court ever feared anyone?!”

With rousing laughter, the 12 Zodiacs and 28 Constellations charged toward the Society of Demons and Fiends’ mightiest warriors.

…

Meanwhile, on the peak of a mountain overlooking the battlefield stood two figures serenely, watching the battle unfold.

One wore a strange mask, an eerie blend of smiling and weeping expressions. He was tall and slender, and happened to be clad in a half-black, half-white robe.

The other remained hidden within mist, but arcs of flickering lightning coiled unpredictably around it.

They were Electra and Black and White.

Black and White was originally the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. After awakening his Bloodline, he had evolved into a Lesser Divine Tree, a terrifying force with strength at the peak of Tier-5, perhaps even Half-Step Tier-6.

And Electra, also known as Quinn, was a rising star of the Demon Court, rumored to be its most promising talent.

Although still in the Early-Stage of Tier-5, her true power remained unfathomable.

And this time, Black and White had brought Quinn here to the core battlefield for a ‘special lesson.’

Or, to put it another way—personalized training.

After all, no other battlefield could temper Quinn.

Even Tier-5 Divine Generals would be obliterated by a single bolt of lightning from her—how could that be called training?

Thus, stepping into the heart of the war was the only real choice.

“Can I go now?” asked Quinn with a grin. Her excitement was loud and clear in her voice.

“Of course.” Saying this, Black and White’s Spiritual Energy surged.

In the next moment, under Quinn’s astonished gaze, Black and White split in two—dividing into two separate figures.

One was pure black, the other pure white.

Good and Evil Persona—A signature ability of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, which allows him to split his power and form into two distinct entities…
Now, the black-clad figure suddenly transformed into a streak of dark shadow, plunging into Quinn’s own shadow.

If one looked closely, one would notice that Quinn’s shadow itself seemed to have come alive.

“Go now…”

“Alright.” Chuckling, Quinn’s eyes flickered ominously.

And in just an instant, her entire demeanor changed—She became colder, more rational.

This was Quinn’s combat state, or rather, the awakening of his ‘Inner Persona’—an artificial intelligence, designed purely for battle.
