With this Demon Puppet in place, every avenue of escape was completely blocked.

But there's one thing, and that's that this Causality Attack can't always be effective.

According to his calculations, this strike could only last for about the time of a prayer.

As long as he holds out, he can escape with his life.

The Lord of Dark Corrosion held a Double Scythe in his hands, his gaze unwavering.

Having corroded so many worlds, he had great confidence in his own strength.

Even though the Power of Profanation had failed now, as long as he focused on defense, the opponent couldn't do anything to him.

At worst, he would be heavily injured; dying wouldn't be that easy, as he was still at the Conceptual level.

Once he escaped, he would obediently hide away.

Once the wind and the waves calmed, he would re-emerge. As long as he found a new Desecration Temple, he could regain his apostle-level combat strength.

By then, the world would still be his playground.

At worst, he would avoid running into this Holy Sin Wright in the future.

If he couldn't provoke him, couldn't he avoid him?

Yet Wright seemed to have seen through his plan from the start, and instead of rushing into the battlefield, he turned his head toward the direction of the Holy Mountain.

"According to the time, they should have almost arrived."

No sooner had he spoken than the Sunflower Queen Sunny, bringing Blood Witch Scarlett, flew swiftly from afar and landed in front of Wright.

"Master, we've caught up!"

Scarlett looked at Wright in confusion: "Master, you summoned me here, is there something you need Scarlett to do?"

"Use your Blood Witch Power to... "

Wright reached out and pointed at the Lord of Dark Corrosion, then slashed downwards sharply: "Freeze!"

"Ah? He..."

Scarlett looked at the Lord of Dark Corrosion within the Light Prison and felt an endless darkness emanating from him.

Even though she was once the Dark Empress, she was still so intimidated by this power that she stepped back repeatedly.

At that moment, she seemed to see the source of darkness.

Yet for some reason, besides fear, what filled Scarlett's heart was anger, boundless, surging anger that could burn away even that little fear!

Why did she feel such hatred toward this source of darkness she was seeing for the first time?

This hatred was so great that even though she realized she was nothing more than a speck of dust before him, less than even an ant, Scarlett still unleashed all her Witch Power with fury!

The Lord of Dark Corrosion started with a look of disdain but quickly sensed an unprecedented sense of danger.

A mere mortal's strike actually gave him a sense of facing death!

Although slight, how could one ignore such a moment?

"What is this? How do you have so many peculiar methods!"

The Lord of Dark Corrosion was nearly driven mad, thinking Wright was already troublesome enough, only to find out that was just the appetizer?

"You underestimate me too much!"

In his anger, the Lord of Dark Corrosion struck, using his immense Dark Corrosion Power to fend off this force outside the Barrier.

Just as the Witch Power was about to be devoured by the Dark Corrosion Power, Wright suddenly snapped his fingers.

Snap!

An endless Emergence Power was injected into the Blood Witch's power, constantly elevating this magic power.

Law Level! Rule Level! Conceptual Level!

The blood magic, promoted to the Conceptual level, almost instantly crushed the Dark Corrosion Power, then, with overwhelming force, directly broke through the Lord of Dark Corrosion's defenses, smashing heavily onto him.

"Aaaaaaah!!!!"

The Lord of Dark Corrosion let out a wretched scream, followed by the start of coagulation and necrosis of the Darkness Power throughout his body.

"Impossible, how can this be! What did you do to me?"

"What did I do? Is it hard to understand?"

Wright supported the already exhausted Scarlett with one hand, signaling the Sunflower Queen Sunny to heal her.

"This is hatred directed at the darkness, Lord of Dark Corrosion.

It's that seed of vengeance that, unconsciously, followed the causality of fate, creating a means specially designed to restrain you.

Just like her hatred for the Dragon Clan ultimately transformed into the Dragon Slayer's Lament.

About the seven witches, I've always had a misconception.

I always thought their goal in creation was to conquer the world.

But one thing was very hard to comprehend, and that is if the seven witches complete their feasts, they can initiate the Witches' Gathering, eventually destroying the world.

Since they've already conquered the world, why destroy it?"

Wright spoke as he passed through the field and prison, arriving at the slowly solidifying Lord of Dark Corrosion.

"I, couldn't fathom it at all.

It wasn't until recently, when I arrived in this world, that I gradually figured it out.

What conquering the world, what destroying the world.

From beginning to end, the witches' plan has always been a plan of vengeance.

The Wise Sage never wanted to conquer the world, nor destroy it, but to seek revenge.

Revenge against those who destroyed her original world.

The witches' plan responded to her deepest desires, thus giving birth to the seven witches.

They seem to target various races, but in fact, they aim at the gods behind these Favoured.

The Sea God System, the Life God System, the Demons of the Demon Realm, the Demons of the Dream Realm, and even those gods who enslaved humans are all on their list of revenge.

And what was prepared for you is the Blood Witch."

Wright pointed the tip of his sword at the chest of the Lord of Dark Corrosion, looking at him with contempt.

"How does it feel?

It must be said that you've hidden very well. I imagine even the Wise Sage's parents, when they sent her away, didn't detect your presence.

Unfortunately, this will, this Desire Power, is just like the Law of Causality.

Since you've done it, you can't escape, you can't avoid it!

Fate is truly a thing that people both love and hate.

So, here's the question, what loves fatalism the most?

What enjoys the cycle of causality and inevitable retribution?

What upholds that everything is destined, and no one can escape the judgment of fate?

What always likes to do something dramatic, making things satisfying yet reasonable?"

Poof!

The sword pierced into the chest, thoroughly chilling the Lord of Dark Corrosion.

"It's, fairy tales.

It's fairy tale stories yearning for truth, goodness, and beauty.

More profoundly, it's the people's inner insistence on innocence and beauty through deception.

People desire good to be rewarded and evil to be punished!

People hope that evil people will eventually be punished, and good people will finally achieve happiness.

People know the world isn't like this, and reality isn't like this either.

People have always known.

But they still don't want to give up these beautiful dreams and beliefs.

So they wove a net called fairy tales, to cherish and preserve all that's beautiful within.

And now, this net will also turn into the noose that strings you up.

Mr. Lord of Dark Corrosion!

It's time to pay your debt!"

Wright suddenly exerted force, and dazzling light burst forth from the sword edge, instantly blasting the now statue-like Lord of Dark Corrosion into ashes.

The Lord of Dark Corrosion let out a heart-rending scream, but his Divine Soul didn't dissipate just yet.

"Hehehe, hahahaha! Surprised, right!"

He laughed arrogantly, his voice tinged with final mania.

"I have already merged my Divine Foundation with the Dark Law completely!

As long as darkness exists in this world, I can preserve my will!

Wright, you're very strong! You are indeed formidable!

You destroyed everything of mine, my Divinity, my Divine Soul! My Divine Body! All of it destroyed! Destroyed!

You turned me into less than a wandering soul.

But someday, I will make a comeback!

I shall take revenge on you! Revenge!!

Hahahaha!"

Wright quietly watched him, disdainfully laughing.

"You're happy too soon, who said it's over? I realized long ago that you fused your Divine Foundation into the Dark Law.

Indeed, ordinary means can no longer completely erase you.

Unless, the Dark Law is destroyed and reconstructed.

This cost is too great; using it to kill you indeed isn't worthwhile.

But you seem to have forgotten.

The fact that you exist with the Law is based on the real world.

And the witch you're facing, isn't just one.

Isn't that right, Ms. Sleeping Beauty?"

As he spoke, Jenny had already landed beside Wright, bringing with her a bewildered Aloe.
