Becoming the Demon Lord: Taming the Demon Queen Begins

The visions in Timothy's mind slowly faded away, and the Netherworld of Reincarnation vanished beneath the golden river.

Yet, Timothy was still deep in thought.

The scenes that had just flashed through his mind seemed real, suggesting that Goddess Sylvia indeed had some connection with the Netherworld princess.

But the reason behind it remained a mystery to him.

"Who would have thought that even Goddess Sylvia had her awkward, barefooted moments by the riverbank?" Timothy chuckled softly, feeling a sense of wonder.

The flames on the Phoenix Blade gradually died down, and the light emitted by Timothy's Soulborn Eye also faded away.

However, the practitioners who had witnessed the scene in the forbidden area were still struggling to recover from their astonishment.

It wasn't just the less powerful disciples,even the elders from the major Sects who had accompanied them were profoundly shaken.

Timothy's Enlightenment Body was indeed awe-inspiring, and some even claimed he could achieve the position of Holy Emperor within a century.

Before this, many Sects had only seen Timothy as a rapidly growing young talent.

No one had imagined that, even before a century had passed, Timothy's power would reach such a terrifying level.

The scene of him walking the Path of Bones had already shocked them, but what many reclusive experts from various Sects found unbelievable was the sword strike Timothy had just delivered.

No one knew exactly where that sword was aimed, but they all felt an oppressive force so intense it was terrifying!

Had they not seen it with their own eyes, they might have doubted whether that strike was from someone capable of rivaling an Emperor-level powerhouse!

As Timothy stepped out from the golden river, silence fell all around.

The major Sects present stood still, treating Timothy with a reverence as if he were the master of their own Sects.

"You! How is it possible!

Not only did you see that place, but you actually formed a... connection with the princess?"

The Bone Sovereign, bound to the earth, suddenly looked at Timothy in shock, his eyes filled with disbelief.

His eyes were bloodshot and frenzied, unable to accept what had happened.

"What are you talking about?"

Holy Maiden Aeliana frowned slightly.

Even without the help of the Soulborn Eye, her strength as a Holy Emperor allowed her to sense something in that moment.

However, the sensation was fleeting and mysterious, and even she couldn't fully grasp it.

"It seems you called all the major Sects to the Grim Expanse's secret realm because you already knew something. Since that's the case, please be honest and tell us everything."

Timothy stepped forward towards the Bone Sovereign.

A chill flashed in his eyes, and immediately, an intense oppressive force bore down.

"You think I would tell you? Even if I have to die..."

The Bone Sovereign didn't finish his sentence when he suddenly noticed the icy coldness in Timothy's eyes, as if his words meant nothing.

"Could it be!

"Damn it, the matter of the princess is not something you can interfere with!"

Suddenly, the Bone Sovereign let out a hysterical roar.

Immediately after, a cold and chaotic spiritual energy rapidly gathered within him, violently trembling.

A bizarre phenomenon suddenly occurred, and the remaining half of the Bone Sovereign's skin began to tear and shatter.

His crimson eyes were filled with mad blood vessels.

"Not good, he's trying to self-destruct his spirit body!"

Even Holy Maiden Aeliana hadn't anticipated this.

As the master of a sacred place, the Bone Sovereign had carried countless burdens for many years, and he was just one step away from reaching the position of Holy Emperor.

No one could have imagined that the Bone Sovereign would actually be willing to end his own life!

"Bone Sovereign!"

In an instant, the God of Flowers Form surged into action.

Timothy, Holy Maiden Aeliana, and many practitioners from the Undead Sanctuary rushed towards the Bone Sovereign, trying to stop his self-destruction.

But the Bone Sovereign's resolve seemed firmer than anyone had anticipated.

Even as Holy Maiden Aeliana broke through the void and appeared before him in an instant, her outstretched hand was already too late.

"Boom!"

A tremendously powerful blast erupted.

Amidst the sky-high flames and smoke, the Bone Sovereign's half-bony, half-flesh body exploded into fragments.

"Boom!"

With a second loud explosion, he even completely shattered his own soul and spirit!

Body and soul, both utterly dissolved in that moment.

The Bone Sovereign's half-body collapsed, his remains dry as tinder, devoid of any life force or spiritual energy.

Even his soul, which had been close to reaching the Holy Emperor level, was obliterated.

Completely annihilated, dissipating into thin air.

A Sanctuary Master had ended his own existence by self-destructing, obliterating his very soul!

"How is this possible, why would the Bone Sovereign do such a thing?"

"Even if he had ulterior motives, as a Sanctuary Master, he shouldn't have endangered his life like this, what exactly was..."

Themyscira Sect, Cloud Pavilion Sect, Radiant Monastery, Sword Peak Sect...

The many Sects witnessing this scene were utterly shocked by the tragic sight before them.

As the dust settled, in the sky, floated the fragmented soul of a Sanctuary Master who had nearly stepped into the Transcendence Realm.

"Bone Sovereign, oh Bone Sovereign!"

The disciples of the Undead Sanctuary were wailing, unable to accept the reality before their eyes.

In their view, the Bone Sovereign was a magnificent being.

Even though he had not yet ascended to the position of Holy Emperor, the Bone Sovereign's power had already been climbing towards that terrifying realm.

No one could have imagined that the Sanctuary Master would suddenly self-destruct at this moment.

If it weren't for their facing Holy Maiden Aeliana and Timothy, who was protected by the Sky Sanctuary.

Those who drove the Sanctuary Master to his death, they would have torn them to pieces!

"Soul Search."

Timothy hadn't expected things to escalate to this extent and immediately used the Soul Search technique to absorb the fragmented soul in the sky.

However, since the soul had completely shattered, the memories he could search from these fragments were only very vague images.

And those secrets that seemed most precious to the Bone Sovereign were all related to the scenes in the Netherworld of Reincarnation.

A dark green, chilling sky, and a woman's soul wearing a crown stood quietly near a cliff.

This scene was exactly the same as what Timothy had seen in the Netherworld of Reincarnation.

"Just as I thought, it seems that my strike was not misplaced," Timothy murmured, frowning slightly.

"Do you know what the Bone Sovereign was trying to hide?"

Just then, Holy Maiden Aeliana, with a slight frown, moved closer to Timothy.

"I have a rough idea of part of it, though I don't know exactly why. But it likely has something to do with a place."

"What place?"

"The Netherworld of Reincarnation."

At this revelation, even Holy Maiden Aeliana's face showed a trace of astonishment.
