Beneath the eerie bone mask, a face as handsome as jade, exceptionally refined and striking, was revealed.
It was as if a celestial being had descended to the mortal world, transcendent and peerless.
It was exactly the same as Jun Xiaoyao's face!
There was not the slightest difference!
Looking at this face she had thought of day and night, Yun Yingluo's eyes flickered.
Ye Junlin saw his own reflection in Yun Yingluo's pupils, which were as clear as jade.
This appearance made him feel both strange and familiar.
Strange because, ever since he gained consciousness, he had worn this bone mask, so he had never known what he looked like.
Familiar because he had seen this face before; he had even fought a great battle against the owner of this face.
He was Yun Xiao, he was Jun Xiaoyao!
"The only one who can defeat me is myself..."
"Heh, so that's how it is..."
Ye Junlin's gaze instantly became clear!
A certain will was Awakening!
He was Jun Xiaoyao's Chaos Body, having fled from the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain into the Boundary Sea.
Then, a massive dark hand covering the sky stripped away part of his Origin.
After that, he was fused with the Source Bead of Calamity.
Then, from that mass of Chaos Origin and the Source Bead of Calamity, a figure in white hair and black robes emerged.
Emperor Yongye placed a bone mask upon his face.
"From now on, you shall be called Ye Junlin!"
"The King of the Night, ruling over the world!"
"You will become the strongest existence, the source of all calamity and disaster in this world!"
Everything, absolutely everything, churned in Ye Junlin's mind.
A vast will surged forth.
The will belonging to Jun Xiaoyao had completely awakened!
Ye Junlin, or rather, Jun Xiaoyao, looked at the woman before him and spoke.
"Little Aunt, I believe I should address you as such, right?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Yingluo was stunned for a moment.
Then, a look of excitement appeared on her face.
It was a success!
Jun Xiaoyao's will had completely awakened.
But Yun Yingluo still wanted to be certain.
"Are you Ye Junlin, or are you Jun Xiaoyao?"
Ye Junlin smiled faintly; this was perhaps his first time smiling.
"Does it make a difference? A name is merely a code."
Now, calling him Jun Xiaoyao, or Ye Junlin, or Underworld King Body, it really made no difference; they all meant the same thing.
It was just a difference in how he was addressed.
In fact, Jun Xiaoyao still wished to keep the name Ye Junlin.
Because it also contained the character 'Jun'.
This Ye Junlin Incarnation would be Jun Xiaoyao's Incarnation in the darkness, the King of the Night!
Becoming Jun Xiaoyao's cold, dark side!
It is said that where there is light, there is shadow.
If Jun Xiaoyao was the Immortal manifested before all living beings.
Then Ye Junlin was the demon hidden in the dark night.
One light, one dark; one Immortal, one demon; together they formed a whole, achieving Perfection.
Hearing this, Yun Yingluo knew that the person before her was truly Jun Xiaoyao; he had completely recovered.
She could not help but feel happy for Jun Xiaoyao.
But Ye Junlin's expression still carried a trace of coldness as he looked into the distance.
Although he had recovered all the consciousness and memories belonging to Jun Xiaoyao.
He did not know if it was because of the Fusion with the Source Bead of Calamity and possessing the power of the Underworld King Physique.
Compared to Jun Xiaoyao's original personality, Ye Junlin's personality was colder, like the Underworld King, the Dominator of Hell.
It wasn't to say he was cruel and bloodthirsty, but he certainly wasn't a pushover.
He was what one would call a man of few words but ruthless actions.
"Little Aunt, matters are not yet over. Let us resolve the current issue first," Ye Junlin said.
"What..." Yun Yingluo came back to her senses.
Just at this moment, the entire blood-stained desert suddenly saw the winds and clouds change.
Then, within the sight of Ye Junlin and Yun Yingluo.
In the distance, a figure appeared.
It was a youth wearing general's armor, with four battle flags planted behind his back.
His entire body was surrounded by astonishing Battle Intent.
A dashing youth on a fine horse!
This youth arrived before the two of them.
Yun Yingluo's expression froze.
And Ye Junlin said indifferently: "War God of the Disaster Clan, I did not expect this to be your original appearance."
"What?"
Beside him, Yun Yingluo was also slightly stunned.
This youth general, who looked so dashing, was actually the original appearance of the War God of the Disaster Clan?
The youth general, or rather the War God of the Disaster Clan, looked at Yun Yingluo.
In his eyes, an unprecedented, complex emotion was revealed.
"You look very much like someone from my past memories," the youth general said to Yun Yingluo.
Yun Yingluo's expression showed wariness.
If this youth general was truly the will of the War God of the Disaster Clan.
Then he absolutely could not be underestimated.
Sensing Yun Yingluo's expression, the youth general revealed a complex look.
And just at this moment, the scenery in this consciousness space suddenly changed.
Many illusions appeared.
Ye Junlin and Yun Yingluo looked and discovered that these illusions were all fragments of one person's life!
In an immortal Imperial Dynasty, there was a prosperous noble family, the Yue family.
The Yue family had three princes in one household, their achievements unparalleled.
What was even more talked about was that the Yue family had produced another Prodigy.
His name was Yue Qianzhong.
At a young age, he had already established many meritorious deeds.
Many even believed that in the future, the Yue family would have four princes in one household.
Later, another immortal Imperial Dynasty came into conflict with this Imperial Dynasty.
A great war broke out.
The Yue family naturally took the lead without hesitation, spearheading the charge.
However, this great war was unprecedented in its brutality.
The three princes of the Yue family all fell!
This left Yue Qianzhong in disbelief.
His grandfather, father, and older brother had all fallen.
The Yue family suffered a devastating blow.
However, who could have expected that Yue Qianzhong would unexpectedly obtain a great Opportunity, his strength skyrocketing, becoming a powerful expert of his generation.
In the subsequent great war, he furiously beheaded the enemy leader.
Afterwards, he even broke through thirteen enemy cities in a row, returning in great victory.
It caused a huge sensation.
Within the Imperial Dynasty, Yue Qianzhong was praised by countless people as the Iron-Blooded Young General.
And just as Yue Qianzhong was about to continue leading his troops to break the enemy forces.
The ruler of this Imperial Dynasty issued an order for him to retreat.
Yue Qianzhong did not understand.
A great victory was right before them; why withdraw the troops?
But military orders were like mountains; no matter how unwilling Yue Qianzhong was, he could only return to the capital.
And just when their troops returned to the Imperial Capital.
What Yue Qianzhong saw was a great fire.
It had turned the entire Yue Manor into ashes.
His mother, relatives, younger sister, everyone in the Yue Manor, had all perished within it.
And what made his eyes split with rage even more was this.
In the Imperial Capital, a woman was tied to a bronze pillar.
That was his childhood sweetheart; she had once told him that after this war ended, they would marry.
Yue Qianzhong did not know why things had turned out this way.
Until heavy armies surrounded him and his troops.
The one who appeared afterwards was none other than the ruler of this Imperial Dynasty.
He revealed everything.
It turned out that the enemy invasion was all fake.
It was this ruler who had colluded with the enemy country to stage a play.
The purpose was to eliminate the Yue family.
As for why.
It was naturally because the Yue family's achievements threatened the ruler.
Three princes in one household was already prosperous enough.
Later, Yue Qianzhong, this Prodigy, was born.
When the time came, there would be four princes in one household.
Would this Imperial Dynasty be surnamed Yue?
The ruler's suspicion made him decide to take action against the Yue family.
When the birds are gone, the good bow is put away; when the cunning rabbits are dead, the hunting dog is cooked.
Yue Qianzhong could not have imagined that for their four generations of loyalty, the Yue family would receive betrayal and the destruction of their home!
His grandfather, father, and older brother did not die in battle!
They died in a conspiracy!
Yue Qianzhong was filled with fury, his eyes as red as if they were dripping blood!
The ruler made Yue Qianzhong make a choice.
If he committed suicide, his lover could live.
But immediately, his childhood sweetheart willingly severed her own heart meridians and died.
In her final moments, the woman who loved him dearly said with teary eyes.
"Qianzhong, live on."
"If the heavens have no eyes, then you shall overturn this world and become the heavens yourself!"
Yue Qianzhong was overcome with grief, his insides burning like fire.
He and his army were surrounded by countless enemy forces, fighting and battling in blood.
Blood flowed like rivers, corpses piled up like mountains!
In the end, his generals and soldiers were all dead!
Only he remained, standing amidst the pile of corpses.
His grandfather, father, older brother, mother, family, lover, subordinates...
All of this was gone.
Yue Qianzhong hated!
Endless hatred and resentment filled his mind.
Countless armies surrounded him, wanting him dead.
But he was not reconciled; he was not reconciled to dying just like this!
Yue Qianzhong looked up to the sky and roared, his hair standing on end with rage!
"The heavens have lost the Dao, why must I serve them!"
"If I become a demon, I will destroy the entire world!"
