The Bronze Holy Pillar towering into the clouds reappeared in the Void.

Wu Xiaode stood before the gigantic pillar, looking up.

He saw that half of the pillar's body was bronze-colored, while the other half was black.

On the black side, boundless evil influence emanated, spontaneously condensing into various strange runes.

——The Evil Spirit had long intended to taint the Holy Pillar and change the inheritance of All Worlds.

"The demonic sun hangs in the sky..."

Wu Xiaode casually muttered.

Beside him, the Angel urged anxiously:

"Quick, before Yan becomes aware, place your hand on the Bronze Pillar immediately and acquire the inheritance of eight layers of strength!"

"Why are you more anxious than I am," Wu Xiaode smiled.

The Angel rolled his eyes and said, "Nonsense, if you die, and people see even Sarina's chosen one being eliminated, wouldn't it cause even more unease?"

Wu Xiaode placed his hand on the Bronze Pillar.

Two lines of small bronze script immediately appeared on the Evil Spirit Book:

"You are about to receive a comprehensive infusion of power, knowledge, and skills, totaling eight levels."

"Begin!"

Endless knowledge flashed through his mind, transforming into memory.

A grand and vast power continually poured into his body, enhancing his attributes.

While feeling it, Wu Xiaode asked:

"Since we're talking about layers, how many layers does the Holy Pillar have?"

"Ten layers make one realm; each realm is 'One World,' a total of 'Ten Directions World,'" the Angel said.

Wu Xiaode pondered deeply.

Back then, Sarina claimed to be the strongest existence in the vast Ten Directions World.

So that's how it is.

He had now undergone nine layers of enhancement, just one layer short of reaching the Second Realm.

But——

Which layer does the U-level Evil Spirit belong to?

Perhaps knowing what he was thinking, the Angel further explained:

"The U-level Evil Spirit, Yan, was exposed by you for violating the rules and has now fallen to the Fifth Realm."

"Once you surpass the Fifth Realm, it won't be able to deal with you."

"However, you will face even stronger Evil Spirits."

Wu Xiaode looked up.

The Bronze Pillar was impossibly high.

Each layer required an advancement of ten levels to reach the next higher one.

Tut, who has the patience for this!

Why can't everyone just live peacefully?

Why don't you Evil Spirits just find a way to the Holy Realm to fight, instead of bothering everyone here?

Isn't it just bullying people?

Wu Xiaode thought quietly.

At this moment, the enhancement from the Holy Pillar had already concluded.

He turned to the other side to learn the corresponding Evil Magic of eight layers, then integrated everything into his Fighting Skill.

The transcending holy journey was eight layers, the Evil Magic was also eight layers, summing up to sixteen layers.

This far surpassed anyone who made a one-way choice.

After all, everyone could only choose one——

If you chose Evil Magic, you sided with the Evil Spirits, so why even look at the Holy Realm inheritance, as if the Evil Spirits wouldn't notice?

If you decide to combat the Evil Spirits, naturally, it would be impossible to learn Evil Magic.

Because you would gradually undergo Evil Transformation.

No one else dared to rebel while desiring to combat Evil Spirits and wanted "everything" like Wu Xiaode.

Soon, lines of small bronze script appeared in midair:

"Currently, your power has increased by sixteen layers, all attributes enhanced accordingly."

"Additionally."

"Your Fighting Skill has been upgraded. You can choose the direction of its evolution according to your will; please infuse your combat intent."

Wu Xiaode slightly closed his eyes, one hand on the pillar, the other on the Evil Spirit Book, and said in a low voice:

"I don't want anything else, just one move..."

He infused all his thoughts into the endless evil wall.

One breath.

Two breaths.

Finally, a new skill prompt rune appeared:

"Your Fighting Skill has acquired a new attached skill:?"

"No matter how far away, as long as it's within your line of sight, the enemy will be grabbed by you across the space."

"Note, this is a new skill founded by merging your Evil Spirit talent with the knowledge and skills of Holy and Evil sides, please name it."

It's done!

In combat, it all boils down to taking initiative versus reacting.

This was exactly the skill needed to seize the initiative!

As for the skill name——

That's not important.

No matter the conditions, as long as it's seen, you can directly snatch the enemy, without caring what they're doing.

Then let's call it "White Grab."

Along with Wu Xiaode's thoughts, indeed, small characters appeared next to the skill:

"You have created the close-range snatching skill: White Grab."

The Angel, seeing his aura stabilizing, also let out a sigh of relief and whispered:

"Quickly escape, or you can concede, first get rid of the duel with the U-level Evil Spirit, then complete the final layer trial of the First Realm."

"And then? Can I reach the Second Realm?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"Yes, once you enter the Second Realm, the trial starts immediately——the U-level Evil Spirit is a Fifth Realm entity, unable to participate, you're safe again," the Angel said.

Wu Xiaode looked up.

The Holy Pillar soared into the clouds.

Such pursuit and combat need to persist across a full ten worlds.

Above there are stronger Evil Spirits than the U-level.

Moreover——

Even if I reach the top, it would only be like Sarina, solitary in heading to the Holy Realm.

"Come with me to the Holy Realm, or stay here?"

——Now understanding why she asked that back then.

Continuously being chased.

Unable to win the fight.

If you can win, you would still need to leave.

What a bore.

How can this situation be changed?

Wu Xiaode stood in front of the Bronze Pillar, lost in thought.

"Hey, this is no joke, quickly hide or rush to complete the final layer of the First Realm."

The Angel nervously looked around the sky and wiped her sweat, saying:

"Don't just stand here dazed!"

Wu Xiaode snapped back to reality, suddenly stepped forward, stood before the gigantic and majestic Bronze pillar, and then squatted down.

"I have a tiny question." He looked down at the junction between the great pillar and the earth.

"What?" the Angel asked.

"——Is it possible that we can dig this pillar down?" Wu Xiaode asked.

The Angel's eyes widened, stunned and baffled.

"You see, once the pillar falls, the Evil Demons can't climb up—anyway, we don't want to go up, so why not?" Wu Xiaode said.

While speaking, he had already drawn the Desert Sword from his side, attempting to dig into the soil before the Bronze pillar.

"The Holy Pillar is indestructible, it will never be damaged." The Angel quickly said.

"It's already been corroded by Evil Magic, who knows, let me dig and see." Wu Xiaode said.

He stood up, put away the Desert Sword, which wasn't very good for digging, and instead took out the Holy Shovel.

Hmm.

This is a tool specialized for digging.

Wu Xiaode swung it satisfactorily twice, and immediately began digging downwards.

——Since upwards is the "vast and boundless Ten Directions World," what about downwards?

Let me dig and see!

...

On the other side.

Primordial World.

Wu Xiaode, with a huge group of Evil Demons, came grandly to the Netherworld.

They stood by the river of Yellow Springs Oblivion River.

"No way."

An S-level Evil Demon stepped into the River of Oblivion and said disappointedly:

"The Law of Oblivion is useless, even if we are in the Netherworld, we cannot be transformed into Spiritual Bodies."

Another Evil Demon roared loudly:

"Hateful! Is there really no way to escape the dream realm and become a real existence?"

All the Evil Demons fell into silence.

——Can they only kill that human man and then disappear into nothing?

Why is their fate like this?

Suddenly.

Wu Xiaode shouted loudly:

"Wait! I have another way!"

All the Evil Demons looked towards him.

Boom!

A intense dark aura suddenly erupted from Wu Xiaode's body, the whole person floating mid-air, looking like the Demon King of the abyss.

Demon transformation state!

"As you can see, I can resonate with the ultimate abyss."

"Since you are filled with resentment..."

"We can still try, see if you can be transformed into Evil Spirits of the ultimate abyss!"

"——Becoming Evil Spirits naturally frees you from the arts of the dream realm."

Thin dark threads emitted from his hand, weaving among countless Evil Demons.

——Almost exactly the same!

Back then, after the U-level Evil Demon left, when he faced those dream realm demons alone, this was how he operated.

Let's see how effective it is.

"Regrettably, it's still not possible—I can only manipulate your thoughts, your bodies remain belonging to dream realm bodies."

Wu Xiaode shook his head, saying this classic line.

The hopes of the Evil Demons were dashed again.

Suddenly.

A black rope jumped from Wu Xiaode's hand, floating in mid-air, loudly asserting:

"I am the ultimate Evil Spirit Treasure, since Wu Xiaode can manipulate your evil thoughts, then using me as a medium, I can let your bodies merge into one, hosted here with me!"

"This is the only chance, come quickly!"

As it said, even if it has merged into "Decomposition Skill," it can still manifest now!

——It can still perform a scene with Wu Xiaode!

Wu Xiaode couldn't help but ask:

"Is it possible, something even the Oblivion River can't do, you can achieve?"

"There is no hope anyway, what's the harm in trying!" the black rope said.

Wu Xiaode hesitated, looked up towards the Evil Demons.

"Try?"

He inquired.

An Evil Demon suddenly jumped up, loudly saying:

"Just tried the water of the Oblivion River, now why not try the power of the ultimate abyss!"

Proceed!

This time's best line is yours!

Wu Xiaode and the black rope cheered in their hearts.

"Come on!"

Wu Xiaode raised the black rope high.

The Evil Demon leaped towards the black rope.

The black rope also greeted it, wrapping around it with a vigorous spin——

In an instant.

The Evil Demon merged directly into the black rope, showing some outlines on the rope.

——It looked as if it was a contour sketched by lines, but if looked closely, it had turned into a bizarre evil rune.

"Succeeded!" Wu Xiaode let out a delighted shout.

The black rope also shouted: "Hurry, while the U-level Evil Demon hasn't found out, merge into my body, and you can achieve freedom!"

The Evil Demons all felt it.

The evil rune on the black rope indeed had nothing to do with the dream realm anymore.

Couldn't believe the Evil Spirit Treasure actually has potential!

The Evil Demons couldn't restrain themselves any longer.

They all flew up, and all merged into the black rope.

In the mid-air, it seemed like a spinning residual image hurricane arose, rapidly rotating around the black rope, all merging into the rope.

One breath.

Two breaths.

Three breaths.

All Evil Demons were merged in!

The black rope gracefully fell down, wrapping around Wu Xiaode's hand again.

"This is the second show—U-level Evil Demon is generous!"

Wu Xiaode exclaimed.

"Yes, after merging last time, created the Boundary Skill, this time should we try." The black rope asked.

"Fusion!" Wu Xiaode commanded.
