But just as the "Death Plague" was about to spread again, Wang Sheng had already arrived.
"How dare you meddle in my territory? Do you think I don’t exist?"
Source Star is where the essence of the Virtual World resides, and everything is under his surveillance. Although he doesn’t usually interfere, he was the first to notice any anomalies.
With a surge of his immortal power, he immediately sealed off the entire area, detecting the problem.
"A voice laced with bewitching power, used to absorb vitality, eh?"
With a wave of his hand, Wang Sheng’s immortal power swept clean the entire region, erasing the bizarre aura as if it had never been there.
However, he did not stop there. The world twisted space and time, resurrecting everyone who had just died, including that Eighth Realm powerhouse, Jing Shan.
Brought back to life and their memories corrected, they instantly recalled what had just happened.
Especially Jing Shan, he couldn’t have imagined that he had actually died. If it weren’t for a stroke of luck and being resurrected, he might have truly died for good!
And Wang Sheng, through the exploration of memories, now knew exactly what had occurred.
He directly said to Jing Shan, "From now on, you are part of the legion, consider it a debt for reviving you."
Jing Shan had heard about Wu Sheng’s true resurrection, but only at this moment did he confirm it was real. Faced with such a powerful being, he dared not argue.
"I shall obey the True Saint’s orders."
He knew he had no choice but to join, there was no room for discussion.
Of course, the surrounding staff looked at him with disdain; after all, they were essentially killed once by Jing Shan.
Had it not been for the True Saint’s arrival, they would have truly died!
No wonder their expressions were less than pleasant.
The "corpse" on Purple Cloud Star had devoured countless lifeforces, and the initially weak vitality within it grew tremendously, kindling the fire of life bit by bit.
Simultaneously, Purple Cloud Star’s most distinctive feature—the purple miasma hanging in the starry sky—also began to change.
The massive nebula churned, resembling a colossal dragon coiling in the depths of the universe, like blazing purple flames leaping, emitting a suffocating heat. The energy fluctuations spread throughout the entire Constant Star System of Purple Cloud Star.
Subsequently, the Purple Star Cloud, as if infused with vitality, gradually turned into liquid, shrinking bit by bit, eventually forming into a massive purple dragon that roared as it rushed towards the "corpse" on Purple Cloud Star that had ignited its vitality.
The "corpse" shuddered like it was being watered, triggering a terrifying Catastrophe on the entire Purple Cloud Star.
Following was the endless energy from the starry sky.
As the energy poured in, the "corpse" instantly opened its eyes.
An aura so terrifying that both heaven and earth seemed to change color.
"It seems I’ve succeeded, successfully resurrected, hehehe... I, Qing Sheng, have finally come back to life!"
His voice seemed suppressed, yet also ecstatic, extremely complex.
After feeling out his condition, he finally returned to normal.
"The resurrection went smoothly. Although I’ve not reached my peak, I still possess the strength of the Tenth Realm. Since that’s the case, I’ll devour a few dozen worlds to replenish my energy, starting with this one. To thank you all for resurrecting me, become one with me!"
It was at this moment that another voice appeared.
"Is that so? Perhaps you won’t have the chance!"
Qing Sheng abruptly looked up. Anyone who could approach him unnoticed would definitely be no weaker than him.
It was a man like an exiled immortal, ethereal and otherworldly, standing there as if he was the only one left between heaven and earth.
Qing Sheng glanced at the newcomer and instantly recognized his power.
"What do you mean by that, sir?"
Wang Sheng looked at Qing Sheng and judged his strength as well. He hadn’t expected to be facing a Tenth Realm powerhouse, and one who hadn’t fully recovered, at that.
"It’s simple. Leave this area. I won’t stop you from devouring worlds, but you can’t do it here."
The Virtual World needed living beings.
Wang Sheng naturally wouldn’t allow him to devour at will.
"You’re already at the Tenth Realm and still care for the lives of mere ants?" Qing Sheng truly did not understand. To powerhouses of their level, anything beneath the Tenth Realm was like ants.
They were hardly significant. The Ninth Realm might require some thought, but the Eighth Realm and below could be randomly created, couldn’t they?
There were significant flaws, but it was indeed the Eighth Realm.
Wang Sheng merely shook his head, not responding.
Seeing this, Qing Sheng knew that if he wanted to devour worlds, he would have to defeat the man before him.
And he was not willing to give up.
"In that case, let’s see the truth in combat!"
Flames of purple fire blazed on Qing Sheng’s body, wantonly scorching the Void.
The flames roared. With a light wave, he illuminated the starry sky, the terrifying heat like a star descending, intending to burn Wang Sheng to ashes.
Naturally, Wang Sheng wasn’t just going to stand idly by.
"Summon winds and call forth rain!"
An endless Wind and Rain Domain emerged from the Void, with Heavenly Thunder flickering among the clouds.
The terrifyingly hot purple flames, seemingly weak under the rain, were gradually weakened significantly in power.
Qing Sheng felt an inexplicable pressure.
"What is this bizarre power?"
His flames were not ordinary; they were the Purple Phoenix Nirvana Fire, known as the Undying Fire, which played a large role in his resurrection.
Yet they were being suppressed by a mere "rain."
Seeing the flames subdued, Wang Sheng launched the Five Elements Sword Formation.
Instantly, the power of the Five Elements filled the Wind and Rain Domain, with every step within it threatening deadly harm.
Thunderbolts struck down, ripping apart the Void in a deafening boom. Lightning raced across the Void in an instant, like an invisible giant hand that devoured everything, a destructive aura following, intimidating all presence.
