Thousand Illusions Glazed Painting, within the boundless and mysterious Illusion Realm, a misty and fantastical scene unfolds before the eyes.

Fog spreads like a light veil, sometimes condensing into strange shapes, occasionally dissipating without a trace.

Light flickers unpredictably in the fog, reflecting colorful halos, seemingly an entrance to another mysterious dimension.

And here and now, the remnant soul of the Heaven-dominating Demon Venerable is tightly shackled by bizarre chains of colorful clouds.

No matter how he struggles, he cannot escape.

Yet despite this, the Heaven-dominating Demon Venerable still looks arrogantly at the sky, laughing loudly:

"Hahaha... Human Race Emperor of Great Yu?"

"Do you truly think such punishment can destroy my Dao Heart?"

"I am from the Earth Demon Race, a mere illusion, what can it do to me?"

In the sky above, the figure formed by Zheng Yi’s Divine Thought quietly floats in mid-air, eyes devoid of any emotional fluctuation.

"Earth Demon Race... I shall see how hard your mouth truly is."

As the words fell, the entire Illusion Realm within the Thousand Illusions Glazed Painting undergoes a peculiar change.

Flames burn fiercely in the illusion realm, a strange purple flame, extremely hot, seemingly capable of melting space.

In an instant, these flames turn into fire snakes, rushing onto the body of the Heaven-dominating Demon Venerable.

The flames lick his body, his skin instantly charred black, emitting wisps of green smoke.

He roars in pain, his soul burned painfully by the scorching flames, as if about to be purified by them.

"Hahaha... Comfortable! Truly too comfortable!"

"Continue! Continue... hahaha...!"

Immediately after, thunderbolts dance like silver serpents in the sky, carrying endless majesty and power.

Bolts of thunder strike the Heaven-dominating Demon Venerable, with strong currents instantly penetrating his body, causing his muscles to convulse violently, even his bones tremble.

His hair stands on end, eyes filled with struggle and anger, his soul teetering under the onslaught of the thunderbolts.

But even so, he still keeps a hard mouth.

"Continue! Continue!"

"Mere thunder, and what can it do to me... hahaha!"

Subsequently, a blade sharper than ever appears in mid-air, gleaming with cold light, seemingly able to cut through everything.

With a whistle, the axe falls sharply, instantly chopping off the head of the Heaven-dominating Demon Venerable.

His body falls, blood splattering, yet his soul still struggles painfully, seemingly feeling the despair of head and body separation.

The next second, his head eerily reappears at the neck, only a pool of blood, as if witnessing something.

Time passes unknowingly, countless tiny insects swarm in like a tide from all directions, quickly climbing onto his body, starting to bite fiercely.

These insects have sharp teeth and hard shells, burrowing into his skin, gnawing at his flesh and soul.

His soul screams sharply amidst the insect bites, echoing in the illusion realm, sending shivers down one’s spine.

Besides flames, thunderbolts, beheading, and insect bites, there is also the gusting gale.

The gale like a knife flays his body, making his wounds even more painful.

His skin begins to chafe under the constant blow of the gale, seemingly yearning to tear apart at any moment.

His soul under the gusting gale, also grows more vulnerable, as if ready to disintegrate any moment.

In this Illusion Realm, various punishments intertwine, causing extensive damage to the soul of the Heaven-dominating Demon Venerable.

His soul under this endless torture gradually grows weak, seeming always ready to collapse and disperse.

The enigmatic Illusion Realm still emits a chilling atmosphere, as if waiting for his ultimate fate.

Thus unceasingly, various punishments, overlapping in the Thousand Illusions Glazed Painting illusion realm.

For seven times seven days and nights, a strand of the Heaven-dominating Demon Venerable’s divided soul under continuous punishment.

And that divided soul of the Heaven-dominating Demon Venerable, was already annihilated into chaos days ago.

The entire divided soul long lost consciousness, even the hatred toward Zheng Yi vanished without a trace.

At that time, he only left a sentence ’I remember, once my Earth Demon Realm connects both realms, I shall descend in true form to demand from you’!

Even so, Zheng Yi still does not stop.

Finally.

As the consciousness of the Heaven-dominating Demon Venerable’s Divine Soul disperses, this mass of soul finally regains its own consciousness.

Star Island.

Foundation Establishment Cultivator, Hong Shan!

Under Zheng Yi’s relentless exhaustion of magical power and illusions, the consciousness of the Heaven-dominating Demon Venerable collapses.

And as a possessed existence, Hong Shan’s consciousness finally awakens.

At this moment, his physical body already dead, only a soul consciousness remains.

He never deluded himself that, relying on mere illusions within the Thousand Illusions Glazed Painting, he could affect the Divine Soul of a Nascent Soul Stage demon race.

The purpose is to expel the Heaven-dominating Demon Venerable’s consciousness, awaken Hong Shan’s consciousness, to obtain secrets about Star Island and Earth Demon Race from him!

Hong Shan’s complexion turns paler, body tottering under the torment of various punishments, yet his eyes filled with struggle.

Zheng Yi looks at Hong Shan, coldly saying: "Hong Shan, you can’t hold out, tell me the secret of the collusion between Star Island and the Earth Demon Race, and I might grant you a swift end."

Hong Shan pants heavily, with difficulty speaking: "Zheng Yi... don’t think... I... I will never betray Star Island..."
