Chapter 1186: The Demon King's Despair
Naturally, Su Jingzhen couldn't repair the runes himself.
In fact, he couldn't even understand them. Little Green within the black brick, however, could.
Throughout their journey, no matter how complex or badly damaged the runes were, Little Green had always been able to work miracles.
This kind of task was right up Little Green's alley.
The Lifeless Demon King's face was still filled with disdain, but in the next mont, when the power of the world began to emanate from Su Jingzhen's black brick, his rune-covered face froze in shock.
His eyes were filled with disbelief.
"How... how is this possible?!" he exclaid.
Under Su Jingzhen's black brick, the broken rune was slowly being reconnected.
Although the energy within it was extrely faint, almost negligible to the Lifeless Demon King, it was indeed being restored to completeness!
"This... this is not your power. What kind of treasure is that in your hand?"
The Lifeless Demon King, true to his na, imdiately grasped the crux of the matter. His gaze locked onto the black brick in Su Jingzhen's hand, brimming with greed.
"It's all mine! The more powerful, the better!" he roared, growing increasingly excited.
At the sa ti, his struggle intensified.
The primordial demonic energy within the pit surged outward in waves, crashing against the base of Death Mountain.
The eight Ghost Emperors, including Ming Sha and Chi Yuan, were horrified.
"Why is it so intense? Could it be that the sealed Demon King is about to break free?"
"Ming Sha, Chi Yuan, you two may have truly brought disaster to the Nethersea. That Su Jingzhen's aura clearly belongs to the Starry Sky Demons. He might be up there helping the Demon King break the seal!"
As the waves of demonic energy surged, the eight Ghost Emperors felt their scalps tingle. So of them imdiately started to bla Ming Sha and Chi Yuan.
At this mont, the elderly Ghost Emperor Liu Zhuan spoke solemnly, "The situation isn't clear yet. We must hold our positions and maintain the barrier. This is not the ti for infighting.
If the barrier collapses, the Nethersea will be devastated, and the Demon King's power will grow even stronger."
With that, the sixth-ranked Ghost Emperor poured all his strength into reinforcing the barrier. He also took out a crimson soul banner, releasing countless spirits he had refined to bolster the barrier.
Seeing this, Ming Sha and Chi Yuan, despite their heavy hearts, dared not let up.
anwhile, at the bottom of the pit, Su Jingzhen had completely repaired the broken rune. However, it showed no signs of glowing, and its energy was extrely weak.
The Lifeless Demon King sneered, "So what if you can repair the rune? Its energy has been depleted over countless years. Without replenishnt, it's just a rune."
As he spoke, his gaze remained fixed on Su Jingzhen's black brick.
Hearing this, Su Jingzhen smiled faintly.
The Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss had already recovered a significant portion of its power, and the energy it could now wield was formidable.
The power of the world alone could easily replenish the rune, even surpassing its original state.
However, Su Jingzhen didn't want to reveal too much about the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss. If its existence were exposed and they couldn't destroy the Lifeless Demon King, he would be in grave danger.
He turned his gaze to Shuang Jiang, who was ready to strike at any mont.
"I have repaired the rune. Now it's your turn. Just infuse it with energy. That shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Shuang Jiang, the seventh rank Immortal Emperor, had temporarily reached the eighth rank after using a forbidden technique.
Her energy reserves, when not exhausted, were imnse.
After all, Xuening, who had only recovered to the third rank of the Immortal Emperor, had managed to hold off the Lifeless Demon King for so long.
Hearing this, Shuang Jiang took a deep breath, suppressed her shock, and walked over to Su Jingzhen.

After Su Jingzhen repaired the rune, Shuang Jiang delivered five consecutive points of Emotional Connection.
Su Jingzhen was stunned for a mont, but it didn't end there.

Another five points in a row, this ti from Xuening. Su Jingzhen was thrilled. He quickly pulled up Xuening's sub-panel.
[Emotional Connection with Xuening: Mutual Affection!]
[Level Bonus: 4x!]
[Cultivation Bonus: 16x!]
Xuening's cultivation bonus was updated.
Now, the points she provided were second only to Zhang Xiu's.
More importantly, these points confird that the woman before him, at the third rank of the Immortal Emperor, was indeed the Xuening he knew.
Like Zhang Xiu, she was the reincarnation of the Yunng Goddess, but her current consciousness was dominant.
Su Jingzhen quickly suppressed his emotions and looked at Shuang Jiang with anticipation.
Shuang Jiang sheathed her sword, her aura reaching its peak as she maintained the forbidden technique.
She placed her hand on the newly repaired rune, and the energy of an eighth-rank Immortal Emperor surged forth.
The rune began to faintly glow as it absorbed Shuang Jiang's pure energy.
"No! This can't be!"
The Lifeless Demon King struggled even more violently, his face twisted in despair. This update is available on ɴovelfire
He could feel the renewed suppression from the repaired rune.
Although Shuang Jiang's power couldn't restore it to its original state, it had regained about 80% of its strength.
It was becoming increasingly difficult to break free.
Lifeless Demon King's face was filled with despair.
"Lifeless Demon King, you've lost this ti!"
Xuening smiled, finally able to relax. She knew that they had temporarily suppressed him once again.
"Surprised? But there's more to co,"
Su Jingzhen said, glancing at the Lifeless Demon King before heading to another dim and broken rune with his black brick.
