He was still suffering from amnesia, his mind was still blank, without a single memory of the past, but the deep throbbing in his soul and the deepest attachments in his heart felt very real and very intense.
He didn’t understand where these emotions came from or why they appeared. He didn’t understand why every time he saw that gray figure, his heart would ache, feeling peaceful for no apparent reason, and finding it difficult to calm down.
As if crossing countless epochs and experiencing countless cycles of reincarnation, the bond between her and this man had long been deeply rooted in her soul and engraved within her, unrelated to memory, time, or cause and effect.
At the end of the battlefield, David walked slowly towards the battlefield.
His gray robe was clean and calm. The few drops of golden divine blood that stained his clothes had dried and darkened, turning into faint dark patches, but that did not diminish his haughty, transcendent, and majestic demeanor.
He walked steadily towards Ning Zhi, his purple eyes lightly sweeping over Ning Zhi’s pale, weak and injured face. His voice was calm, indifferent, and emotionless: “How serious are your injuries?”
Ning Zhi looked up and looked at him, his voice hoarse and low, filled with unconcealed exhaustion and despair: I will not die.
After a moment of silence, he suppressed all the complex emotions in his heart and suppressed all his irritation and disappointment, then solemnly said, his words sincere: “David, thank you for today’s affairs.”
But David just lowered his eyes and spoke calmly, without the slightest fuss or complacency: “I am not acting on your behalf.”
Straightforward, cold, honest, and merciless.
His words exposed the whole truth and destroyed Ning Zhi’s last shred of comfort.
He did not save Ning Zhi, and he also did not save the demon army that was almost wiped out.
He only saved Sonya.
Just that.
Ning Zhi’s lips twitched slightly, her heart ached with indescribable pain, and various emotions stirred within her.
Hearing the answer he already knew from someone else’s mouth still made him feel sad and helpless.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something more, whether it was to express his opinion, make a vow, or express his gratitude, but in the end he remained silent and wordless.
All words, all statements, all oaths, appear pale, powerless, empty, and ridiculous in the face of an absolute imbalance of power.
Only by becoming stronger, only by reaching the extreme, can one break the deadlock, reverse the situation, and control one’s own destiny.
David completely ignored him, ignoring the hustle and bustle of the demon army around him, and turned to walk steadily towards the deepest part of the Tian Shu Continent.
There lay the last and most important ancient secret realm of the Seven Star Heavens—the Tian Shu Ruins.
It is also the most important relic in the entire Seven Star Heavens, with the most profound creation, the most magnificent origin, the most ancient laws, and the most extreme danger.
The three great families had taken root in Tian Shu for a long time, dominating the seven heavens and possessing boundless resources and immeasurable foundations.
But they have not been able to penetrate this realm, shake its seal, or steal its origins, which is enough to show the mystery and horror of the Tian Shu Ruins.
Just when David was about to inspect the ruins of the Tian Shu Continent, the heavens and the earth suddenly began to shake violently.
An aura that was more mighty, vast, and irresistibly terrifying than when the three clan leaders had unleashed their full power descended from beyond the nine heavens, permeating the void, penetrating the earth, and enveloping everything.
The entire sky shook.
The entire continent is groaning.
Countless devil cultivators’ expressions changed drastically, and their minds were shaken. The fiery emotions that had just been ignited by their victory were instantly crushed to dust by this majesty that came from a higher dimension.
Some people’s legs felt weak and they fell to their knees;
Some people were in excruciating pain, clutching their heads and curling up in agony;
Some people suffered from disordered spiritual foundations and rampant spiritual energy, with blood flowing from the corners of their mouths.
Sonya suddenly raised her hand and pressed it to her temple. He felt a sharp pain between his eyebrows and his blood boiled. A dazed golden light flashed in his dark red eyes.
Ning Zhiqiang struggled to his feet, his body battered and bruised, and stared fixedly at the dazzling divine light that broke through the sky and penetrated all realms.
So dazzling, so sacred, so majestic.
Divine light descended from the endless sky, breaking through the void, penetrating the laws, ignoring all obstacles, and fixed on the lone gray figure in the center of the battlefield.
Wherever the beam of light passed, the void opened up into a dark abyss, and the laws of heaven and earth were all distorted, damaged, and destroyed.
It was a power from a higher dimension, a direct manifestation of the original will of the gods.
David stood straight in place, his purple eyes slightly raised, his gaze indifferent, his face calm and his posture unmoving.
Facing the radiance of divine punishment that was enough to terrify even a peak level three Grand Luo Golden Immortal, he simply raised his right hand, his five fingers slightly spread, and faced it head-on.
