"Rumble"

Under the watchful eyes of Xiao Lin and the others, Huang Wuji's soul, which had transformed into a sun, crashed headlong into the Dark Demon King, who was currently exhausting all the demon qi in his body in an attempt to resist.

Without any suspense, the demon qi around the Dark Demon King's body was ripped open. All of his defensive methods completely collapsed and disintegrated in the face of the Sacred Flame Purges Sin executed by Huang Wuji through burning his soul!

Just like its name, Sacred Flame Purges Sin, it thoroughly cleansed all evil in this place!

The terrifying shockwave, carrying billowing golden sacred flame, swept in all directions at this moment. Even Xiao Lin and the others were affected by it. At this very moment, this entire space was enveloped by the golden sacred flame.

All of the demon qi was evaporated at this time.

"Ah, we have also become the targets of this golden flame, what should we do?"

Seeing the golden sea of fire sweeping over, Zuo He and the other seven Formation Masters instantly panicked.

Of course, it wasn't just them, Xiao Lin and Ji Li, who were slightly closer to the golden sea of fire, initially thought facing this encroaching golden sea of fire that Huang Wuji had gone on a killing frenzy, not even sparing them.

However, in their current state, they no longer had any remaining strength to dodge the incoming sea of fire. But very quickly, they discovered that they had overthought it.

This golden sea of fire actually only had an effect against demon qi, when it swept past their bodies, it unexpectedly did not cause any damage at all!

Not only that, when the golden sea of fire swept past their bodies, the injuries that Xiao Lin and Ji Li originally suffered miraculously recovered completely at this moment.

Only until this time did they react, the innate divine ability of the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix - Nirvana Sacred Flame, could both destroy everything and also restore everything!

Under Huang Wuji's intentional control, the destructive effect of this Sacred Flame Purges Sin was only targeted at the Dark Demon King, while the restorative effect acted upon the bodies of Xiao Lin and the others.

When their injuries were entirely recovered, the faces of Xiao Lin and the others were completely filled with looks of shock.

"Is this the rumored Nirvana Sacred Flame of the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix? It truly is miraculous! This effect has probably already surpassed most of the Heavenly Flames on the Heavenly Flame Ranking, right?"

Ji Li, who was originally heavily injured, felt his current healthy condition and could not help but exclaim with emotion.

"To have this kind of effect, one must at least reach the Dou Sheng realm, right?"

Although the Nirvana Sacred Flame of the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix was indeed miraculous, Xiao Lin was still very rational.

Right now, they only needed to just watch. However, Xiao Lin was still quite curious about the words that had come out of Huang Wuji's mouth just now.

What exactly did the other party not want to lose, such that even under the circumstances where he could eliminate the Dark Demon King, he kept dragging things out until now, even delaying time by proactively letting himself be suppressed by the opponent?

Though, while Xiao Lin did not know what it was, it was absolutely very precious, this much was for certain!

Just like that, this golden sacred flame burned in this space for approximately close to five minutes before it gradually extinguished. At the same time, the demon qi that originally flooded the entire space had already completely dissipated without a trace.

This place restored its original appearance once again. No, it should be said that after the Sacred Flame Purges Sin, many things were still left behind here.

"What are these blue crystals?"

After the golden sea of fire vanished, many sky-blue crystals appeared within this parasol tree forest.

Especially in the central area where Huang Wuji transformed into a sun and collided with the Dark Demon King, a giant sky-blue crystal standing up to several tens of meters high had actually appeared!

"These sky-blue crystals seem to be energy crystals?"

Xiao Lin said in a not-too-certain tone.

He could feel that within these sky-blue crystals, they indeed all contained immense energy!

Hearing Xiao Lin say this, Ji Li and the other eight Formation Masters also could not help but each pick up a piece of this sky-blue crystal from nearby to observe it.

"Sure enough, these are all solidified energy crystals, and what's more, they are incomparably pure!"

Feeling it carefully for a moment, Ji Li agreed with Xiao Lin's viewpoint.

At this time, the others also nodded to express their agreement.

"Let's talk about these things later, can you guys still feel that Dark Demon King's aura? And Senior Huang Wuji's!"

Thinking of something, Xiao Lin temporarily put away his thoughts regarding these sky-blue crystals. Facing Xiao Lin's inquiry, after silently feeling for a moment, the others all shook their heads.

The Dark Demon King's aura, they were completely unable to feel it at this time!

As for Huang Wuji...

"Buzz~"

Just as everyone was thinking about it, beside that giant sky-blue crystal, a ripple suddenly rippled out. Immediately following that, Huang Wuji's soul, which was already close to being transparent, slowly emerged.

At this time, his face still carried a smile.

"Senior Huang! ×10"

Xiao Lin and the others shouted almost in unison.

"Descendants of the Dou Qi Continent, you all did very well, truly!"

Huang Wuji's incomparably gratified gaze swept across Xiao Lin and the others one by one.

"Senior Huang flatters us, in the end, it was still Senior who struck to eliminate that Dark Demon King."

Xiao Lin spoke open-mindedly.

"No, although the Dark Demon King indeed died by my hands, if it weren't for you all, my end would have been to lose the thing most important to me, thereby perishing together with him."

Subsequently, Huang Wuji also began to tell everyone about the cause and effect of this matter. It turned out that back then, Huang Wuji used the price of losing his physical body to seal the Dark Demon King in this place.

At the same time, he also left behind a backup plan. Which was that once the Dark Demon King completely wiped out his soul, his backup plan would erupt, using the absolute world-destroying sacred flame to burn everything in this place to ashes!

In other words, no matter what, the Dark Demon King was actually in a dead end. Even if Xiao Lin and the others hadn't arrived, it would have been the same. It's just that, that was not what Huang Wuji desired.

Therefore, he had been waiting.

Until the arrival of Xiao Lin and the others.

In reality, just like what Xiao Lin and the others thought, the very moment they arrived, Huang Wuji knew about it. However, he did not appear at the first moment to help Xiao Lin and the others deal with the Dark Demon King.

The root cause of this was still because the outcome would not be changed.

Only if Xiao Lin and the others could force out the Dark Demon King's true form, and nullify the assistance of the demon qi in this place to the Dark Demon King, would the future envisioned by Huang Wuji be altered.

Hence, until the Dark Demon King revealed his true form, only then did Huang Wuji immediately appear afterwards. In this way, Huang Wuji also did not need to use the price of losing a precious item to eliminate the Dark Demon King.

After explaining all of this, Huang Wuji waved his hand toward that giant parasol tree.

"Rustle"

Instantly, an egg that was roughly close to one meter high emerged from the top of the giant parasol tree, and then landed in front of Huang Wuji.

"This is?"

When seeing this egg, Xiao Lin asked subconsciously.

Subsequently, Huang Wuji was seen stroking this egg with affection.

"This is my child, and also the backup plan I would have used to eliminate the Dark Demon King if you all hadn't come to this place!"

"Once my soul was completely annihilated by the Dark Demon King, this egg would have erupted with destructive sacred flame, burning the Dark Demon King and this entire space to ashes!"

When Huang Wuji spoke up to here, Xiao Lin and the others finally knew why the other party wanted to do all of this. After all, using the price of sacrificing his own child to eliminate the Dark Demon King was indeed Huang Wuji's absolute worst option.

If there was a choice, how could he do it this way?

This was also the reason why he said earlier that he also had selfish motives.

Fortunately, the performance of Xiao Lin and the others did not let Huang Wuji down. After forcing out the Dark Demon King's true form, if he wanted to eliminate the opponent, he no longer needed to sacrifice his own child.

This was the truth behind why Huang Wuji did so much, and dragged things out until the very end to strike!
