Chapter 737: The Reversal of Fate

After sacrificing hundreds of thousands of abyssal demons and demon lords, the evil essence still seemed insatiable, revealing its monstrous serpent head toward the remaining evil gods. Seeing this, the true gods present couldn’t help but sweat nervously. Fortunately, it seemed enough—Ugsh had no intention of continuing the sacrifices. Instead, he placed a seal over the evil essence before turning to the other evil gods led by the Lord of Evil Dragons and saying, “Princess Tia, you’ll need to assist me later in breaking free from this spatial trap and giving Ivan a lesson he’ll never forget!”
With her own life at stake, Tia hesitated none. She immediately manifested her dragon god form, turning into a massive dragon with five heads, each colored red, black, blue, green, and white. From each of the five heads, dragon breath was emitted—fire, acid, ice, poison, and lightning—entwining together like an arrow. Followed by a combined attack from the other evil gods, this combined magical energy surged like a giant arrow straight toward the side of the Glorious Purgatory located within the divine realm. Upon touching the pale flames, it triggered a violent explosion. Even the spatial barrier, which even the higher gods of the Glorious Purgatory found difficult to break, trembled.
At that moment, the black evil essence in Ugsh’s hand, like a lightning serpent, crossed space in an instant and appeared at the shaken spatial barrier. Its extremely evil power was like an omnipresent poison—even the pale flames couldn’t burn it away. A tiny streak of black light managed to corrode a pinprick-sized hole in the barrier of the Glorious Purgatory before slipping through that gap.
Once outside the Glorious Purgatory, the serpent-like evil essence swam freely like a fish in the sea and instantly entered one of the divine messengers. Under the power of the mighty evil essence, this demi-god messenger, who was in full control of a part of the Glorious Purgatory’s divine artifact, didn’t even have a chance to resist. His once radiant divine appearance was forced to transform into one covered in pitch-blackness, with sharp fangs and claws, radiating dark energy—resembling the most evil demons from the abyss.
Still unsatisfied, the evil essence emerged from the fallen messenger’s nostrils and teleported in front of the second messenger.

By this time, the ruler of the divine kingdom had already realized the danger posed by this evil origin and took action himself. A giant hand made of endless light suddenly appeared in front of the second divine messenger, reaching out to grasp that evil origin. The divine power of a higher god was incredibly strong; even an evil origin, a law-based entity of extremely high rank in the universe, let out a scream like a living being after being scorched by the radiant power of that giant hand and was forced to take cover temporarily, fleeing swiftly in another direction. Yet, that radiant giant hand was not without damage either. Large black spots appeared where it had touched the evil origin, spreading to other parts of the palm. After sacrificing hundreds of thousands of demons and over a dozen powerful demon lords, the power of this evil origin was enough to corrupt even a mighty higher god, forcing even a being like the Lord of Dawn to be cautious. Meanwhile, on the side of the trapped evil coalition, the loss of one component of the Glorious Purgatory artifact set caused the once-perfect Glorious Purgatory space to show signs of instability. The remaining evil gods were overjoyed at this sight and intensified their attacks. With their combined efforts, a series of explosive booms followed, causing the Glorious Purgatory space, which had previously been unshakable, to collapse entirely. The ruler of the divine kingdom continued to transform his giant hand into a dense web of light, playing hide-and-seek with that slippery evil origin. But after all, this was the domain of a higher god, and the ruler had an unparalleled advantage. As a result, there were fewer and fewer places for the evil origin to hide. Ughesh, who had escaped his prison, saw that the evil origin was now heavily surrounded and crashed into the light web. Although it could corrode parts of the web, it itself seemed to be stung by poison and quickly jumped to other locations. Unfortunately, the space was getting narrower, and it was about to fall into the seal of the web’s master. The orc god sneered. At the same time, Ivan, the Lord of Dawn who resided at the core of the divine kingdom, felt a sudden surge of anxiety, sensing that some powerful threat was approaching. Before he could take any protective action, he saw the trapped evil origin suddenly stop in mid-air, its seal bursting open. The once-condensed evil origin was shattered into countless streams of black light, instantly corroding a hole in the light web and spreading throughout the Lord of Dawn’s divine kingdom, which had been affected by the explosions of the Glorious Purgatory.

Due to the loss of control over the Glorious Purgatory, the rules of the Dawn Divine Kingdom’s plane were somewhat disrupted, creating loopholes in their functioning. Once this evil essence spread, it took advantage of these loopholes and rapidly spread throughout the entire divine kingdom plane. The intense evil force instantly contaminated one-third of the once gloriously sacred Dawn Divine Kingdom. This could be seen even in material planes such as the Primary Material World, where the sun in the sky appeared covered with a dark spot. The gods of the Pantheon saw it even more clearly—the one-third of the Dawn Lord’s kingdom was instantly engulfed in darkness. It was easy to imagine that in the battle against the evil coalition led by Ughesh, Prince Ivan was likely at a disadvantage. This discovery shocked the gods greatly. Of course, many true gods who were dissatisfied with the Dawn Lord’s domineering style secretly rejoiced at his misfortune. Yet those who truly understood the situation knew that the outcome was still uncertain—which supreme god didn’t have a powerful trump card for self-protection? Not to mention someone like Ivan, who was regarded as the strongest true god of justice. Indeed, soon after the contamination began, a scorching sun rose from the center of the kingdom. Its endless light overshadowed the brilliance of all the kingdoms on Paradise Mountain. The pollution caused by the evil essence was purified in just one breath. The dark spots within the light struggled for a moment; aside from one that narrowly escaped the light, the rest were swallowed by the endless brilliance and vanished. The gods watching the battle saw that the one who escaped was the incarnation of the Five-Color Dragon God. But by now, this evil dragon lord had lost three of his five heads, his dragon wings were severely damaged, his colossal dragon tail was broken in half, and almost all of his scales had fallen off—how else could one describe his pitiful state? Seeing this scene, all the gods thought only one thing: “Ughesh is finished!”
