"Megan has disappeared without a trace, presumably erased by the will of the magical world."
"The foolish, fearsome demon king dares to descend?"
"It seems his treacherous heart lives on, not learning from the lessons of the past!"
The undead Eamon lay in his coffin, examining the information from the elite squad.
"Hmm, what a fearsome demon king, just a young abyssal demon."
"When his true form descended years ago, he was defeated by the Knights of the Holy Light, now he only manifests as a soul avatar, which won't make much difference."
"What about the mysterious disappearance of over a hundred Dark Alchemists from the original Dark Organisation? Could they have been casually wiped out by the will of the magical world?"
"The will of the magical world rarely kills innocent people for no reason, this matter is quite strange and needs to be investigated thoroughly."
The undead Eamon's eyes flickered with red light, also feeling some doubt.
"The useless bunch from the original dark organisation, more trouble than they're worth, stirring up trouble with a simple dark curse."
"The will of the magical world is already weakened, one more strong blow could be fatal. It looks like it's necessary for me to take personal action!"
"Soon, very soon, we will be able to replace them and become the true rulers of this world!"
The undead Eamon seemed to have thought of something, a cruel smile appeared on his lips.
---
On the other side, in Blood Castle.
Crack!
Accompanied by a barely audible noise.
The energy of the Philosopher's Stone was completely depleted, shattering into a wisp of powder and dissipating into the air.
After absorbing all the spiritual elements, Lu Yuan's soul intensity had reached an unimaginable level!
His eye sockets glowed with a crimson soul fire that had almost solidified, like an eternal flame burning fiercely!
And his entire skeletal structure was undergoing some kind of extraordinary transformation.
If you looked closely, you would be astonished...
Complex runic patterns spread across the surface of Lu Yuan's bones.
These patterns seemed to have formed naturally, like manifestations of the rules of heaven and earth, and contained unimaginable terrifying power.
If the terrifying demon king saw this scene, he would surely be horrified.
After all, only the bodies of gods who have been immersed in the rules of Heaven and Earth would form such patterned rules!
And even though the rules on Lu Yuan's surface were not yet complete.
But at least it could be called a demigod's body!
Lu Yuan speculated.
With his current strength, a casual blow could shatter a mountain!
But the increase in power was secondary.
The most important function of these patterns was to raise Lu Yuan's aptitude and affinity with the elements to an unimaginable level!
Now, he didn't even need an incantation.
Just one thought and he could control all the elements in this room.
Any magic or alchemical knowledge, he would simply see and understand it!
Unleashing a simple first level fireball spell could erupt with a power comparable to a forbidden curse!
If Megan were still alive, Lu Yuan wouldn't even need to plan this much.
With his pure physical strength alone, he could crush her instantly!
"The Philosopher's Stone is truly worthy of its legendary status, its effects are extraordinary."
Lu Yuan sighed deeply.
This Philosopher's Stone had saved him hundreds of years of hard practice.
Directly advancing him through several realms, entering the realm of a demigod!
No wonder, tens of thousands of years ago.
Even the various gods in their realms would consider the Philosopher's Stone a treasure, its effects were simply incredible.
However, Lu Yuan was well aware of this.
The Philosopher's Stone was only a highly condensed form of spiritual elements.
What truly turned decay into miracles was that strand of the Origin of the World!
And the Philosopher's Stone, rewarded by the will of Heaven, was flawless, a product of the highest quality.
The World Origin it contained was at least a hundred times more powerful than an ordinary Philosopher's Stone.
It was because of this that Lu Yuan could become such a powerful demigod in such a short time!
"No wonder the Heavenly Will suddenly increased the simulation difficulty to the end-game level, they must have planned all of this beforehand."
Lu Yuan had a moment of realisation.
The Will of Heaven might seem ruthless, but they wouldn't let the simulators die in vain.
Even in the so-called guaranteed death difficulty of the endgame, there was always a glimmer of hope.
As long as he could hold on to that thread of hope, there was a chance he could beat this simulation!
"Eamon the Undead has lived for almost two thousand years.
"And the secret arts of the Holy Light he created seem to be able to steal the origin of the world."
"If he has been constantly absorbing the Origin of the World for these two thousand years, how powerful has he become?"
"A god? Or a realm above the gods?"
With these thoughts, Lu Yuan's joy at breaking through to the demigod realm was instantly replaced by an unprecedented pressure.
Even the will of the heavens couldn't handle Eamon.
That alone showed how troublesome he was.
And if Lu Yuan had guessed correctly.
During those two thousand years, the Heavenly Wills must have sent many talented simulators from other worlds to this magical world.
There must have been many crown princes among them.
Yet Eamon had lived unscathed until now.
It was easy to see the fate of those earlier simulators.
"What kind of monster is he? To be beyond the control of the will of heaven?"
Lu Yuan was deeply puzzled.
Because the power limit of the magic world was very low.
The supreme beings of this world, if placed in other higher realms, would simply be cannon fodder.
No matter how strong Eamon was, he couldn't compete on a larger scale.
Quite apart from him, the entire magical world was a mere speck of dust in the face of true power.
He couldn't possibly have the power to compete with the will of the heavens.
"Could he have used some kind of BUG?"
Unable to find an answer, Lu Yuan decided to question the fearsome demon king to see if he could get anything useful out of him.
"How much do you know about Eamon the Undead?"
Lu Yuan controlled Norton and asked directly.
Before, he might have beaten around the bush, trying to coax words out of the Fearsome Demon King.
But now.
The Fearsome Demon King was like a fish on a chopping board, unable to make any waves.
"Eamon, that madman? Why are you asking about him?"
The Fearsome Demon King felt a tinge of suspicion.
Originally, he thought.
That his enemy in the magical world was hiding behind the scenes, orchestrating everything.
But now it seemed that way.
The other party didn't even know of Eamon's origins, suggesting they were not from this world.
Was he an outsider as well?
At this thought, the Fearsome Demon King's expression changed, his mind immediately stirring.
"You asked for Eamon's information, you must be an outsider from another world, right?"
"Let me advise you, don't be under any illusions."
"There have been many outsiders before you who have tried to deal with Eamon, but unfortunately they all ended up dead!"
"If you let me go, maybe I can show you a way out if I'm in a good mood, so that you can leave this world alive."
"After all, that monster Eamon is unkillable!"
