The moment the Blood-stained Demon Star appeared, the endless void erupted with a storm of overwhelming bloody energy. Standing beneath the scarlet giant eye, Supreme Titus of the Demonic Realm found it hard to breathe for a moment.
"Hahaha! In the end, the true winner is me—me!"
Supreme Titus burst into wild laughter, then, unable to wait any longer, threw himself into the scarlet giant eye. At that moment, Evan Chu opened his eyes and instinctively sensed that something was off about the scene before him.
It seemed that what was happening now was not simply Supreme Titus successfully summoning the Blood-stained Demon Star to absorb and refine its power. Instead, Evan felt more like Titus himself was being refined by the Blood-stained Demon Star!
As the demonic emperor of his clan, Supreme Titus has always wielded absolute authority, both in his past life and now. Though his hunger for power runs deep, he would never normally go this far into madness.
The only explanation was that the Blood-stained Demon Star’s bloodthirsty, violent aura had completely clouded Titus’s mind, trapping him deep inside! Thinking this through, Evan Chu felt a chill—Titus’s cultivation is already formidable, and right now he, Evan, and the Spirit Lord stand at the very peak of the Three Realms.
But even so, he still couldn’t escape the Blood-stained Demon Star’s manipulation. Realizing this, Evan knew he had to be even more cautious.
At Lord Thunder’s guidance, Evan Chu and Supreme Titus were fighting in the endless void just outside the Three Realms’ boundary, separated from the black hole by only a thin veil of space. So, everything happening inside the realms was completely unknown to them.
The entire Frostbane Divine Palace’s army had assembled. Every expert at God King realm and above joined the grand, ultimate battle across the Divine-Beast Enclave and the Netherworld! In this war, the casualties were countless—God Emperors, God Venerables, all fell; by the end, every God King-level fighter was seriously wounded.
But once the Frostbane Divine Palace’s army entered the fray, the rebels were quickly routed. After three days and nights, Roxanne Lin and Yvonne Xuan joined forces to slay the last God King-level rebel, marking a temporary end to the Three Realms’ civil war.
The reason the war wasn’t truly over was because Evan Chu and Supreme Titus’s duel still hadn’t reached its conclusion. On the second day, Chase Chu and fake Princess Serena led the Netherworld’s elite army into the God Realm, joining forces with the returning Frostbane Divine Palace army, divine beasts, and sea clans to completely surround the Demonic army that had just entered Frostbane Divine Capital.
But at this point, thanks to Supreme Titus’s ruthless methods, the Demonic army had suffered countless casualties. Facing an enemy force hundreds of times stronger, they had no strength to fight back, and fake Princess Serena surrendered on the spot.
Right then, in the Extreme North of the God Realm, a pillar of light suddenly erupted—so bright that all Three Realms could see it. That violet power seemed to pierce through the laws of the realms and link up with a rapidly approaching star from deep space!
Inside Heavenblade Sect, the Spirit Lord stared at the sky, eyes blazing with excitement. "Crimson Demon Star! You’ve finally come, haven’t you? I’ve waited for you for a hundred thousand years! Hahaha! Titus, Evan Chu—did you see that? I’m ahead of both of you now, and in the end, I’ll be the true victor!"
Meanwhile, because of the spatial-temporal distortion, time was completely out of sync: while Supreme Titus had only just summoned the Blood-stained Demon Star, three days had already passed in the God Realm, and the Spirit Lord had fully fused with the power of the Crimson Demon Star!
In the endless void, as the last trace of power settled inside his Chaos World Domain, Evan Chu let out a long breath—he’d finally made it in time!
Back then, Evan Chu had never fought alone. At first, he had Yvonne Xuan by his side; later, Jade Chu and Tom Chu accompanied him, and at the most critical moments, Old Goldwing and Shadow never left him.
But this time, all of them were caught up in the Three Realms war. Inside the Chaos World Domain, the Sea-Eye Spirit Spring, Elemental Spirit Pearl, Chaos Spirit, and Geocore Soul Mother were all in deep sleep. Evan Chu was truly fighting alone!
"The Blood-stained Demon Star’s power really is terrifying. Haha, Evan Chu, you’re dead for sure! What else do you have left to fight me with now?"
"Heh, why don’t you come and try? You’re nothing but a slave under the Blood-stained Demon Star’s control. Think you’re strong now? You don’t even have the star’s true power—what you’ve got is just its control over you."
"Bullshit! That’s impossible. Facing death, you’re still spouting nonsense. Since that’s how you want it, I won’t let you live any longer!"
Supreme Titus shouted, and the scarlet giant eye vanished. The Ten-Thousand-Demon Space Domain—shattered earlier by Evan Chu—reformed once again, but this time its power was even more ferocious. If Titus’s strength had already reached the Three Realms’ peak before, now it had completely surpassed it!
Even if, as Evan Chu said, Titus hadn’t mastered the Blood-stained Demon Star’s true power and was instead losing his mind under its control, the strength he wielded right now was undeniably real—tens of thousands of times greater than at the start of their battle!
If they’d fought inside the Three Realms at this moment, it wouldn’t just be a matter of spatial cracks—the entire Three Realms might collapse!
Titus attacked again, and just as the Three Realms had enjoyed three days of peace, a new beam of demonic darkness erupted. But this time, its origin didn’t seem to be inside the realms, but rather in the spatial rift between the Demonic Realm and the God Realm.
The Spirit Lord, having just absorbed the Crimson Demon Star’s power, was overjoyed by his skyrocketing cultivation. He wasn’t like Titus—he hadn’t lost control to the Blood-stained Demon Star.
With the terrifying intelligence that let him scheme for a hundred thousand years, the Spirit Lord saw absorbing the Crimson Demon Star as just the natural next step. Now, sensing the upheaval, he glanced toward the source of the beam and sneered:
"Oh? Has Titus succeeded? Heh, guess not... That fool doesn’t even realize he’s being controlled. Sure, that power isn’t weak, but compared to me? He’s not even close."
The Spirit Lord shook his head and continued, "Whatever. That power may not be enough to impress me, but it’s more than enough to deal with Evan Chu. In the end, Evan actually ended up behind Titus—quite a surprise. I thought he’d be my final enemy, but now he’s on the verge of falling."
But letting Titus get rid of him for me, then casually finishing off Titus afterward—once the Three Realms are settled, I’ll be the true winner. That outcome won’t change."
With a flash, the Spirit Lord sped off toward the endless void where Evan Chu and Titus were fighting.
"Frostbane, I should thank you for making this possible. If you hadn’t ordered the God Realm’s army to retreat, my Demonic forces wouldn’t have entered the God Realm so easily. You know, without the Demonic Heavenly Dao’s restraints, it’s much easier for me to harvest demonic souls and essence blood! Launching the war and invading the God Realm was really just a means to an end—my real goal was to get them into the God Realm, free of those restraints, so I could summon the Blood-stained Demon Star!
In short, you sped everything up. As a token of gratitude, when your life ends, I’ll make sure you don’t feel a bit of pain!"
But Evan Chu just laughed and stayed silent. So I made you who you are? Titus had no idea that the Blood-stained Demon Star’s appearance was exactly what triggered Evan’s resolve to fight to the death! Just now, as Evan closed his eyes to comprehend, the seventh Star Mark inside his Chaos World Domain quietly lit up...
