Devil's Son-in-Law

Chapter 1265: The Shocking Change in Human World

The [Star Gate] was open, and the star point destination was Storm Island.

Chen Rui didn’t think too much. What should be thought and said had been done.

Moreover, he was not alone. Athena, Zola, Catherine and others had all accepted Python’s Saint Fighting Heart power. They directly merged with the Star Conferring Platform in a burning state.

It was worth mentioning that Corpse Necromancer Guradam had also joined the ranks of fusion. Guradam did not have a strong sense of belonging like others. Although he had considerable awe of the boss who provided him with all the research conditions, it had not reached the level of life and death. However, after learning the truth about the dark clouds in the Demon Realm, the corpse necromancer knew very well that if he joined in to strengthen Chen Rui’s power, there would still be a glimmer of hope; if he gave up, once the dark clouds’ power reached its ultimate state, then even an undead creature like him would be completely annihilated together with the world without exception.

To survive and continue on the road of research, this was Guradam’s obsession at the moment. Therefore, he made this choice.

Everyone’s power was temporarily sealed. As long as Chen Rui launched the battle state and released the power of the stars of the Star Conferring Platform, he could truly integrate the ‘burning’ life of all 2-star enhancers and constellation power to unleash the strongest combat power ever.

For the first time, everyone was with him, fighting side by side in a real sense. Perhaps it would be the last time.

As soon as Chen Rui came out of the [Star Gate], he felt something was wrong. The land under his feet was not the original land, but the sea. Looking at the dark top of his head, the original huge island had risen from the ground and was suspended in the air!

What’s wrong was not only the Storm Island, but also the surrounding environment. He felt his body was light and the gravity was greatly weakened. The sky was the same as the Demon Realm, covered with endless dark clouds without the slightest sunlight.

The surrounding light was dim, filled with a cold breath. This ‘coldness’ was not a drop in temperature on the surface, but a strange chill that penetrated deep into the soul.

Chen Rui suddenly felt that this environment was a bit familiar, but he couldn’t remember where he had seen it. He was certain that it was not because Quilliana noticed the star point that she deliberately turned the Storm Island into this state, but some kind of unimaginable changes had taken place in the entire world.

Chen Rui didn’t stay in the Storm Sea Area. Instead, his body flickered and disappeared in place.

His current strength, even without the [Pole Star Transformation], was far beyond the ordinary peak stage of the Pseudo-God. With a shifting without full strength, he left the Storm Sea Area and appeared in the original boundary of Yang Shao Empire.

When seeing the scene in front of him, Chen Rui frowned tightly.

The former Yang Shao Empire had turned into ruins, which was expected, but in the ruins, there were countless huge potholes with blood-red lava faintly appearing. There were several large islands in the sky just like the Storm Island he saw before.

The difference was that these islands were made of mud mixed with bones, which looked eerie and weird. Each of the bone islands represented the process of countless lives being cruelly destroyed.

This was not the first time Chen Rui had seen this kind of bone island. In Despair Main Altar, he destroyed one with his own hands, but this was the first time he had seen this kind of bone island. The bone islands floating in front of him were more eerie than what he saw at Despair Main Altar. There were still clouds of smoke looming in the tower group.

Chen Rui could tell that these smokes were not ordinary mist, but something like a soul entity, giving him a chilling feeling. The most incredible thing was that the [Analytical Eyes] actually didn’t have any data of these soul entities as if they didn’t exist in this world!

After the soul entities found Chen Rui, they rushed toward him one after another. Chen Rui did not avoid it, allowing the souls to attack, but the soul did not seem to exist in the world as they just passed through Chen Rui.

At the moment of passing through, Chen Rui felt a familiar chill in his soul. He finally remembered – This is the wandering spirit!

The wandering spirits of the Ghastly Floating Land!

This discovery made the familiar feeling in Chen Rui’s mind clearer, and he finally realized that the entire human world had been transformed into an existence similar to the Ghastly Floating Land!

“The wandering spirits are a bit strange…” Chen Rui frowned even tighter. He felt that the wandering spirits were like phantoms, not real existence, so the [Analytical Eyes] did not display any data. Nonetheless, that chill was real. It was just much less powerful than the wandering spirits of the Ghastly Floating Land.

“Right, this is not a simple transformation, but an overlap! The space overlaps!” Chen Rui blurted out. He was no longer a rookie who just came into contact with this magical world. He suddenly understood the situation. At the same time, he was inexplicably horrified: Quiliana actually wants to merge the main plane and the Ghastly Floating Land… no, it is very likely that the entire Mysterious Land will be integrated into one!

What on earth is she going to do?

While Chen Rui was thinking, the blood-colored lavas flowing in the huge pits below had quickly become hot as the cold breath in the air was replaced by fiery heat. Groups of squirming bodies in the lavas quickly took shape and surged toward Chen Rui.

Chen Rui didn’t look at the Abyss lords and the blazing flame witches rushing toward him, nor did he look at the bone spurs all over the sky. The moment the nearest bone spur approached him, it suddenly froze in the air. Not only the bone spurs, but all the monsters were frozen. Subsequently, when a gust of wind blew, the frozen figures were instantly scattered into powder.

However, the Abyss monsters was endless. The huge potholes in the blood-colored lavas began to boil again, and more monsters emerged. Chen Rui raised his brows, punched down, and a bigger hole appeared near the potholes directly below. The huge fist print carried a trace of special cold air. The blood color in the potholes quickly dimmed, frozen, collapsed, and disappeared.

This kind of defeat was actually a temporary solution without solving the root cause. If he was entangled in this corner of the Yang Shao Empire, it would be a waste of energy. Chen Rui did not clear all the huge potholes. He flickered and left this area.

Only by getting rid of the root power is the only way to completely eliminate these monsters.

If I guess correctly, the Nightmare Plain will be the last root and the final battlefield.

Chen Rui didn’t stop. He shifted with all his strength in the direction of the Nightmare Wilderness.

Along the way, he crossed many regions; from the eastern continent to the White Sea Area, then to the western continent.

As expected, the entire continent had been transformed into a scene similar to the Ghastly Floating Land without any breath of life other than the Abyss power.

However, it seemed that the transformation was not yet complete. There were still many traces of the previous war. The ruined cities, the deformed landforms in front of the fortress, and the White Sea that had turned into a land. These devastated scenes were all proof of the struggle with the Abyss. It was also a picture scroll with the theme of life and survival.

In the future, distant or near, this war might be depicted as a tragic and magnificent historical poem that would be passed down through the ages.

Perhaps, all the lives remaining in the Demon Realm would lose their future, and the original wisdom and civilization would come to an end.

The current location was the Blue Glory Empire, and it wouldn’t take long to cross the Ice Sea to reach the final destination. After several high-speed visual changes, the scene in front of him changed from the floating bone islands to the entire blood red.

The Ice Sea should be called the blood sea now because the sea was not cold ice water, but boiling lava. The air was filled with suffocating scorching heat, and there was crystal red flowers floating on the sea surface.

The clouds in the sky were no longer the gloomy dark clouds before, but blood red, presenting a radiating shape as if caused by some great power in the distance.

The space here was filled with the powerful Abyss power. His power was obviously suppressed. Here, the Abyss creatures could exert their strongest power while the power of outsiders would be greatly reduced.

Chen Rui didn’t use shifting anymore, but he changed to flying.

The blood sea sensed the intruder and began to boil violently. Flowers of Abyss burst into blood mist one after another. Dozens of huge tentacles stretched out. The tentacles were full of erupting lava and terrifying mouthparts. The momentum under the buff was even more amazing. It should be some kind of sea creature similar to Octopus King that accepted the mutation power of the Abyss.

At the same time, large crowds of Abyss monsters appeared in the sky, swarming like clouds, almost covering the blood-colored sky.

Chen Rui punched out. This punch seemed ordinary and had no special power. However, the blood sea in front of him rolled back one after another, revealing a trench that could not be closed. Those huge tentacles were instantly torn into pieces.

While punching, he still maintained his unhurried flying speed, then he punched the distant sky again. A gap appeared in the monster cloud in the sky, extending far away. Countless cracks were formed along the way. The monsters within the range of the cracks were turned into ashes.

Chen Rui punched while flying. He was not wasting his strength, but he used this punch to adjust his state, further adapting to the oppressive power of Abyss, in order to prepare for the real battle.

The monsters that were surging at him retreated, and the raging blood sea stopped boiling. The environment that was roaring fiercely just now suddenly became silent.

The central part of the still blood sea began to solidify into red crystals, turning into a crystal clear bridge that extended forward.

Chen Rui looked at the crystal bridge. It should be the way to the final battlefield.

At this moment, his mind was tense, dignified, determined, and calm.

From the moment he was reborn in this world to now, although the time was not very long, he had experienced several lifetimes more than ordinary people, and he had owned many unique things.

Not power, power, glory, but people.

Lovers who would never change until death, friends whom he could entrust his back, children whose blood was thicker than water.

He had all these most precious things.

Lovers and partners were burning their lives and fought side by side with him today. With the care and attention from relatives and friends behind him, all he could do was fight with all his strength. Even if he was annihilated, he would have no regrets in this life.

Taking a deep breath, he landed on the bridge.

No doubt, there was no trap on the crystal bridge, but following his footsteps, the crystal bridge behind him began to collapse, indicating that this was a path of no return.

Chen Rui smiled and continued on without fear.

TL: Does he have the power to face Quiliana?
