Chapter 1078 - 1076: Black Blood Appears, Naraku’s Joy Turns to Sorrow, Is Jun Xiaoyao the Dark Monarch?

Chapter 1078: Chapter 1076: Black Blood Appears, Naraku’s Joy Turns to Sorrow, Is Jun Xiaoyao the Dark Monarch?

Seeing Jun Xiaoyao’s disregard, Naraku felt a fire burning in his heart and retracted his gloomy gaze.

The shame of the wedding banquet, he would demand back from Jun Xiaoyao.

"Then let’s go."

Moluo naturally knew that Naraku seemed to have a grudge with Jun Xiaoyao.

However, he didn’t express a stance on either side.

But, if Naraku truly was the Dark Monarch, he would support the Dark Monarch’s side.

After all, the Dark Monarch was the existence designated by the Ultimate Calamity.

Subsequently, Moluo led the crowd, stepping onto the Dark Continent.

As for Elder Ke, he didn’t follow but instead rowed the boat and once again disappeared into the mist.

Jun Xiaoyao and the Six Kings, plus Naraku, totaling seven people, traveled through the air, led by Moluo, heading to the end of the Nether River.

Looking around, the Unmentionable Land was incredibly vast, with the sky above like an endless dark cosmos, stars scattered like shattered diamonds.

Here was the ancestral land of the Ultimate Emperor Race.

Jun Xiaoyao journeyed here but didn’t see any lifeforms.

Even various demon creatures and fierce beings were extremely rare.

The world was silent.

This eerie silence was somewhat unsettling.

However, everyone present wasn’t ordinary, so they adapted quickly.

"By the way, after this, where exactly are we heading into the depths of the Unmentionable Land?"

With idle curiosity, Zhu Ye spoke, asking Moluo.

As a being of the Demon Origin Race, Moluo clearly knew much more than these people.

Moluo didn’t mind explaining, "Deep within the Unmentionable Land, there’s an area called the Celestial Dark Realm."

"Celestial Dark Realm?"

The attention of Jun Xiaoyao and the others turned to Moluo.

This information was extremely important.

"Indeed, if the Unmentionable Land is the Ancient Land of my realm, then the Celestial Dark Realm is the core of the Unmentionable Land."

"It is rumored to hold the great Ultimate Calamity."

"And the six World-Ending Forbidden Artifacts that we six kings possess are the keys to unlocking the Celestial Dark Realm."

"Without us, no one could enter the Celestial Dark Realm."

Moluo’s words delivered very important information.

"Do you know what the Ultimate Calamity actually is?" Shen Le couldn’t help but ask.

The Ultimate Calamity was too mysterious, making her very curious.

The Immortal Emperor Race outside the Unmentionable Land struggled to probe the root of the Ultimate Calamity.

The Ultimate Emperor Race inside the Unmentionable Land should have some records.

But who would have thought, Moluo simply raised a finger to his lips, "Shh, never attempt to speculate on what great calamity it truly is."

"It cannot be described, and no one knows; there are no detailed records even among my race."

"But soon, we’ll see it."

Seeing Moluo’s face filled with fervent devotion.

Shen Le curled her lips.

Wasn’t this like saying nothing at all? 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Jun Xiaoyao also pondered secretly.

To be honest, he was considering what to do if they truly entered the Celestial Dark Realm later.

After all, the Ultimate Calamity wasn’t an ordinary existence.

Compared to the Immortal King, it was even more terrifying by countless times.

Jun Xiaoyao indeed wasn’t confident enough to deceive the Ultimate Calamity.

He didn’t even know what the Ultimate Calamity actually was.

This situation where the enemy is in the dark while he is in the open made Jun Xiaoyao feel passive.

"Forget it, one step at a time; thinking I’ll back down is impossible," Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.

Since he already came.

Jun Xiaoyao wasn’t someone who would timidly retreat.

Next, they continued to advance.

The system had previously refreshed the sign-in location and mentioned signing in at the Unmentionable Land.

But now, there was no movement.

Jun Xiaoyao knew they hadn’t truly entered the depths of the Unmentionable Land yet, which is the Celestial Dark Realm.

Seven days passed.

Jun Xiaoyao and the others arrived at the region of the Nether River’s source.

Looking ahead, the sound of flowing river water echoed.

A thick gray mist enveloped the space between the heavens and the earth.

It was even denser than the mist of the Mist Area before.

The mighty Nether River surged.

The dark matter contained within was far superior to other places.

"Ahead is the end of the Nether River, a place that serves as both the endpoint and the origin," Moluo said.

Everyone looked ahead, where a layer of translucent dark light enveloped that region.

"That must be the ancient array enveloping the source of the Nether River," Jun Xiaoyao thought.

Then, he saw in the array, there seemed to be a dark blue bead.

Inside the bead, there was a drop of pitch-black, extremely deep blood.

The mighty Nether River surged endlessly, driven by the pearl.

"That is the source of the Nether River’s power, the Celestial Nether Divine Pearl. What you want is within that pearl," Moluo said.

Naraku’s breathing involuntarily quickened.

He could feel every cell in his body seemed to be calling for that drop of blood.

Ancient memories surged back into his mind.

It felt like a bloodline connection.

Naraku didn’t doubt that if he could obtain that drop of blood.

He would undergo a true qualitative change.

It would be a complete transformation from flesh to soul.

The powers of the Orochi Evil God and Dark Monarch would be fully awakened!

By then, not to mention Jun Xiaoyao alone.

He had the confidence to completely suppress the Six Kings!

Naraku’s heart pounded, and he slowly walked toward the ancient array.

The rest were attentively watching.

Zhu Ye and Yun Xiaohai had no doubt that Naraku was the Dark Monarch.

And they had chosen the right side.

Moluo carried some skepticism.

Because Naraku’s previous performance was truly lackluster, giving a bad first impression.

But if Naraku could truly merge with the black blood, he would naturally recognize Naraku’s monarch status.

As for Shen Le, she was very nervous, praying in her heart for Naraku not to succeed.

Otherwise, Jun Xiaoyao would be in real trouble.

Su Hongyi had never shown any expression from beginning to end.

No matter if Naraku was the Dark Monarch or not, she was forever devoted solely to Jun Xiaoyao.

And Jun Xiaoyao was the most relaxed and carefree among the Six Kings, without feeling any pressure.

But that didn’t mean Jun Xiaoyao had made no mistakes.

He began quietly activating the drop of Celestial Black Blood within his inner cosmos.

Suddenly.

The black blood that had been dormant within the Celestial Nether Divine Pearl began to stir.

It pulsated like a life form with self-awareness.

"There’s indeed a reaction!" Yun Xiaohai’s gaze sharpened.

"He truly is the genuine Dark Monarch!" Zhu Ye said.

Naraku’s eyes were bloodshot, tense and excited to the point of almost holding his breath.

Finally, he reached the edge of the ancient array.

The drop of black blood within the Celestial Nether Divine Pearl seemed to resonate, unexpectedly shooting directly from the pearl toward Naraku!

"Come, merge with me, let the Dark Monarch awaken once more in this world!"

Naraku spread his arms, welcoming the fusion of black blood.

But...!

The drop of black blood shot toward Naraku then, directly bypassed him!

It finally hovered in front of Jun Xiaoyao.

Jun Xiaoyao, one hand behind his back, gently held up the drop of black blood, allowing it to float in his palm.

Utterly indifferent words emerged from his mouth.

"I have no desire to become a monarch, yet the celestial mandate is placed upon me."

"Naraku, you may as well speak your last words."
