My starting summon is a small skeleton

Demigod Level, a rank above the Epic Level.

At the same time, it is a level that cannot exist in the Alliance World.

The Alliance World was created by gates, and although it has been growing, it currently cannot accommodate an existence of this level.

Should this group of Demigod Level beings appear in the Alliance World, let alone engage in battle, even a slight unleashing of their power would be a huge disaster for the Alliance World.

But the situation in the Holy Angel World is entirely different.

Although the world of the Holy Angel Secret Realm is smaller than that of the Alliance, its level is much higher and much more robust.

It is so robust that it could withstand the full force of six or seven Demigod Level powerhouses.

"It's been a long time since I've exerted my full strength. This feeling is just exhilarating!"

The founder of the Holy Sect Alliance said, while simultaneously unleashing his Demigod power to strike at the Zeroer.

By his side, Ilya's parents, who were acquaintances of his, also followed suit.

The three had the same attributes, and the attacks they released at the same time were equally terrifying.

With one strike, the tremendous Holy Light brightened the entire Holy Light Secret Realm by a few shades, which caught the attention of that group of silly roe deer inside, including Ilya.

She was craving Lu Wu at the central high tower of the Holy Light Secret Realm when she suddenly saw the Holy Light, hurried to the window, and looked in the direction of the Holy Light.

The building she was in was high enough, and her own Power was strong enough.

Therefore, she could see far enough to clearly witness the situation at the site of the battle and to feel the power that had erupted from there.

"So powerful!"

The combined power of those three Holy Lights was almost the strongest power Ilya had ever seen in her life.

While this power exploded, another three powers followed up.

One was the ultimate Dark, another was the scientific power that was very unfamiliar to Ilya, and the last was the ultimate power of destruction.

Each of these powers, if placed in the Alliance World, would likely easily destroy an area.

Now, these forces were concentrated and aimed at only one target—that was the Zeroer, whose arms had already been destroyed.

Under such an attack, no one should be left alive.

Hmm, should be!

Or, theoretically speaking.

But some things just can't be explained theoretically.

Just when everyone thought the Zeroer was certain to die, he suddenly shook his head as if stretching his muscles.

As his head turned, a pair of arms that had been severed grew back out.

Simultaneously, a mysterious giant beast appeared behind him.

The moment the giant beast materialized, it directly opened its mouth and bit down on the attack from the three Holy Light forces combined into a cross.

"Crack," the Holy Light Cross was directly bitten to pieces.

The giant beast crunched it up in just a few bites.

"How is this possible?"

The founder of the Holy Sect Alliance changed his expression.

"Why not possible?"

At that moment, a light chuckling sound emerged beside his ear, and the founder of the Holy Sect Alliance completely panicked. He wanted to flee, but it was too late—a hand rested on his body.

In the next instant, all that was left of this Demigod Level powerhouse was a Divine Fire.

In a blink of an eye, a Demigod Level existence was annihilated, and the strength displayed was beyond the mere use of the word 'terrifying' to describe.

The faces of everyone involved in the ambush against the Zeroer changed.

They realized that the Zeroer's power might far surpass their imagination.

But now that they had already engaged in combat, there was no turning back – they could only grit their teeth and continue to besiege the Zeroer.

However, they soon realized that it was not they who were besieging the Zeroer, but the Zeroer who was counter-slaying them.

Having just killed one, the Zeroer's figure soon appeared in front of the founder of the Dark Conference, lifting a hand to point again.

The founder of the Dark Conference thought he had evaded the Zeroer's point due to all his preparations, but it merely postponed the inevitable. The Zeroer landed another blow, taking him away once more.

As a result, less than a minute into the battle, Li Wuji's side had lost two members.

It was safe to say that Li Wuji and his allies' resolve to siege the Zeroer crumbled in an instant.

"Retreat!"

Their first thought was to retreat.

But when they looked towards the rift, they realized that the fissure that the Zeroer had just torn open had already healed.

"How can it be this fast..."

"Thud!"

The founder of the Science Alliance was killed once again, and a smile appeared on the Zeroer's face, "Of course, it's because you've been betrayed!"

Li Wuji was stunned, turning his head to look at Zhang Yunyi's direction.

In that moment, the other side responded with a coquettish smile.

That smile blew Li Wuji's mind.

He could never have imagined that it was Zhang Yunyi who had betrayed them.

Because today's trap was organized by Zhang Yunyi, who had come to them after being killed by the Zeroer and had proposed this plan of siege.

Li Wuji could never have guessed that the person who proposed this plan ultimately intended to besiege them.

He couldn't figure it out, and fortunately for him, he didn't need to anymore.

As he stood perplexed, the Zeroer had already appeared behind him, a gentle tap and Li Wuji's body shattered apart, and another Divine Fire appeared.

This scared the Holy Angel couple out of their wits.

They never expected that the Alliance they had joined would be reduced to just the two of them so quickly.

"Honey, you go, I'll..."

"Thud!"

The old father stepped forward to resist the Zeroer, trying to buy time for his wife to escape.

But as soon as he began to speak, his wife charged forward, acting to buy time for her husband, but it was all so futile – another Divine Fire appeared the next moment.

The old father was left dumbstruck.

Before he could react or his hatred ferment, the Zeroer appeared before him, a gentle tap and the last Demigod fell, a Divine Fire igniting from nowhere.

Ilya, who was dozens of kilometers away on a high tower, was stupefied.

In her wildest dreams, she had never imagined she would witness this scene.

One day, a demon would suddenly emerge and dispatch her parents with a few blows.

This intense shock left Ilya feeling as if the sky had collapsed and the earth was caving in.

Endless anger and panic surged over her, leaving Ilya to collapse in a heap.

Was there no one, no one who could save her?

What was her Marsda doing? Could he come to rescue her?

Meanwhile, as Ilya succumbed to total despair,

On the other side, after killing the last Demigod, the Zeroer's spirit began to plummet like a cliff.

Standing there gasping for breath, he looked like he was almost done for.

Clearly, that powerful display of abilities had required a significant expenditure of his energy.

At this moment, he was not exactly exhausted, but he was certainly out of strength.

Fortunately, all enemies had been dealt with.

And he had nutritional supplements to replenish himself.

Being able to wipe out that annoying swarm of flies all at once, preventing them from causing trouble at a crucial moment, was quite a joy for the Zeroer.

However, the Zeroer did not forget that his smooth handling of that group was due to a significant contributor.

With this thought, the Zeroer turned to look at Zhang Yunyi.

But his gaze was not that of looking at a contributor, but rather a tool.

"Thanks to you, these flies have been dealt with.

Then, should I say thank you and offer you some benefits?"

The Zeroer said, his face revealing a meaningful expression.

Zhang Yunyi gently stroked the hair on her forehead and earnestly said, "If you wish, when you restart the world, I hope you can leave a few people behind, that's my only request."

Hearing her words, the Zeroer's mouth curled slightly.

"Your only request? Is that really all you are asking for?"

The expression on Zhang Yunyi's face faltered for a moment but quickly returned to calm.

"What do you mean by that?"

At this time, the Zeroer wasn't looking at her, but rather, he turned his head to gaze at the Divine Fire in his hand, his lips curving up slightly.

"Shouldn't what you are asking for... be these?

Or rather, to be precise, isn't what you are asking for... for me to consume these?"

As soon as the Zeroer said this, Zhang Yunyi's hand, which had been stroking her hair, stiffened, and her form moved in that instant.

She realized that her goals had been exposed, and now all she could do was to steal away Lu Wu.

Thus, she dashed straight for Lu Wu in that instant.

The Zeroer, perhaps because of the recent outburst of energy, now seemed completely drained.

He watched Zhang Yunyi pounce towards Lu Wu and did nothing. Instead, he toyed with the Divine Fire in his hand and continued, "From the very beginning, you've been treating Li Wuji and the others as your pawns.

You knew they were no match for me. Using them against me would at most only make me expend some energy.

No, that's not quite right, they are not just simple pawns.

At least Li Wuji wasn't so easily exploited by you.

He must have been aware of your plan, voluntarily joining despite knowing he would surely die.

His goal was to make me deplete more energy.

When my energy was largely spent, I would undoubtedly need to replenish it quickly, and the thing available here that could replenish my energy quickly was this Divine Fire.

That's also the real purpose of you and Li Wuji."

"You want me to swallow these Divine Fires because they possess the power to resurrect Lu Haikong.

Once I swallow the Divine Fires, Lu Haikong might have the chance to come back to life when I am at my weakest, and that's when I will truly be in trouble."

The Zeroer squinted, speaking Zhang Yunyi and Li Wuji's plan word for word, his eyes narrowing at that moment.

At this time, Zhang Yunyi could no longer afford to listen to all this.

She had already reached Lu Wu and grabbed him, preparing to leave.

But could she really succeed that easily?

Did they think the Zeroer was dead?

"Putsh!"

The moment Zhang Yunyi approached Lu Wu, the same sword that had just gone through the Zeroer pierced through her heart, nailing her in front of Lu Wu.

The one who made the move was Tie Xiong, who had just pierced the heart of the Zeroer.

This was not arranged by the Zeroer.

Tie Xiong had indeed been turned by Zhang Yunyi and the others, he truly wasn't one of the Zeroer's people.

But now, as the Zeroer emerged as the final victor, what he should do, what actions he should take, Tie Xiong was naturally clear.

Wasn't it just betrayal?

If he could betray the Zeroer, what couldn't he betray about Zhang Yunyi?

Even in Tie Xiong's view, the Zeroer's lack of action was precisely to give him this chance to make amends, and he certainly intended to grasp it.

With one stab, he pierced through Zhang Yunyi's heart. Yet, Tie Xiong felt it wasn't enough; he pulled out his longsword and repeatedly thrust it two more times.

"You dare to attack Lord Zeroer, you are truly seeking death.

From the very beginning, I knew you would have no good end, deliberately cooperating with your act, but in fact, my heart..."

"Pfft!"

Tie Xiong had only just begun to sycophantically pledge allegiance to the Zeroer when a terrifying power burst forth within his body.

Under this force, Tie Xiong died with a face filled with shock, despair, and unwillingness.

"What a clumsy performance that's truly nauseating."

After giving his bland evaluation, the Zeroer slowly walked toward Zhang Yunyi, looking at the man in front of him whose body had been pierced, his whole body spurting out blood, a hint of appreciation showing on the Zeroer's face.

"To be fair, your struggle to this extent is indeed a presence that is unparalleled in hundreds of years.

You should die with no regrets!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yunyi before him managed a smile with his last bit of strength, "Indeed... I should indeed die without any regrets...

Let me say lastly, it is I who have won!"

The Zeroer was startled.

Just as he was unclear about where Zhang Yunyi's words were coming from, he suddenly noticed that Lu Wu, standing behind Zhang Yunyi, seemed to be splattered with blood.

The blood-red and the pure white Lu Wu contrasted starkly, creating an impactful scene.

What shocked the Zeroer was not the scene itself, but when he saw the blood on Lu Wu, the Zhang Yunyi in front of him began to crack like porcelain.

At the same time, the figure within the 'porcelain' also revealed itself.

To his horror, the Zeroer realized that the person inside wasn't Zhang Yunyi at all, but a breathtakingly beautiful girl.

And he recognized this girl; she was none other than Pang Duddu, who should have died not too long ago.

"No good!"

The Zeroer instinctively sensed something was amiss.

He subconsciously struck at Pang Duddu standing before him, shattering her with a casual blow.

However, this very action caused the Lu Wu before him to tremble.

Now, the Zeroer was completely panicked, only now realizing that Zhang Yunyi's true objective had been this all along.

At this moment, he could not care about anything else, hurriedly swallowing the six Divine Fires into his stomach.

He needed to recover his power as quickly as possible, for only with regained strength could he suppress Lu Wu, who had not truly awakened yet.

Even if swallowing these six Divine Fires might bring Lu Haikong back to life, he had to take the risk; it was the only choice he could make in the moment.

Yet just as he swallowed the Divine Fire into his belly, his power beginning to return,

An ecstatic voice emerged from the endless Despair Abyss.

"Marsda, it's you Marsda, have you come to save Ilya?"

As this voice resounded, the contract between Lu Wu and Ilya was fully activated; the once slightly trembling Lu Wu gained the power to break free from the restraints, and in the next second, the jade-like Lu Wu opened her eyes...
