Purgatory Artist-Chapter 426: Liu Ping’s Means

Flying.

Liu Ping passed through the endless wreckage of the world and flew towards the bottom of the Void Pillar.

Occasionally, a few Occultists would silently appear.

These existences all came from the worlds within the Void Pillar. Because they saw the power of Occultism, they created their own worlds near the Void Pillar.

Just like the banshee Samantha.

Liu Ping didn't care about these existences and continued to fly deeper into the void. freewёbnoνel.com

Finally.

He had returned to the remnant of that world.

It was the world where he faced off against them Dark Executioner.

"How are you?"

Liu Ping rushed forward and helped the World Spirit, the little girl who was trapped in the Nightmare Crypt Palace, up.

"Did you get the black scale?" the little girl asked.

"I got it" Liu Ping answered.

The little girl sighed in relief and continued: "As soon as you left, it hurriedly followed and didn't bother to deal with me"

"With the black scale in hand, it thought that it could continue to control you and the Nightmare Crypt Palace, so it didn't want to kill you" Liu Ping coldly smirked.

He turned back to look at the sky.

Quite a few Occultists appeared in the sky, looking down at him.

"Scram" Liu Ping spoke.

"Young man, don't be so angry, what exactly happened here?" a white-haired Occultist asked.

"You want to know?" Liu Ping asked.

"We are the most powerful existences on the Void Pillar, we should be the ones in charge of such matters"

"Listen well, the two great existences of the nightmare, they are fighting for ..."

Before Liu Ping finished, all the Occultists in the sky had already left.

At the very next moment.

Countless nightmare runes suddenly appeared and fluttered in the sky. Only when no one heard the secret behind it did they disappear back into the void of space.

This was a secret that surpassed the entire Void Pillar.

Who would dare to hear it?

Who would have the right to hear it?

Liu Ping turned his gaze back and crouched down next to the little girl, pulling out the spikes condensed from the fog behind her back one by one.

The spikes were clustered together, constantly letting out various buzzing noises.

But when Liu Ping took out the black scale, all the spikes lost their sound.

That's right.

Just like the little girl said, this scale controls her freedom!

Liu Ping looked at the black scale.

Lines of burning text quickly appeared in front of his eyes:

[Divine King's World Scale]

[Unique (exclusive to the Divine King).]

[This piece of armor contains the 3000 worlds of your past life. You once used it and its spirit to fight against the nightmare, but you failed in the end]

[This piece of armor has been completely sealed. It requires the incantation of the Lord of Nightmares to release its power.]

[It has two powers:]

[First, the endless torture of the Lord of Nightmares.]

[Based on what you've heard, this Nightmare Spell contains the full power of the Lord of Nightmares. It's specifically used to deal with unknown existences with malicious intentions.]

[Second, the Divine King's Three Thousand Worlds.]

[This is a technique used to fight nightmares in the past. It has been sealed away by the Lord of Nightmares. You will need to recite the incantation to release it.]

All the small characters were retracted.

"Ugh ..."

The little girl frowned and groaned in pain.

"Bear with it." Liu Ping took a look at the black scale and continued, "It will recover very soon."

He waved his hand and plucked a wisp of holy light from the void. Just as he was about to sprinkle it on the little girl, he suddenly stopped.

"Sorry, I couldn't help myself. Let's do it again."

Liu Ping apologetically extinguished the wisp of holy light.

He reached his hand out again and lit up another wisp of holy light that wasn't as blinding, but was much gentler. After carefully inspecting it, he sprinkled it on the little girl.

The bloody holes on the little girl's body that were caused by the spikes slowly healed.

She wanted to stand up, but found that she couldn't do it no matter what.

"Let me take a look"

Liu Ping reached his hand out and pressed it on the little girl's back, then fell silent.

"What is it?" the little girl asked in a soft voice.

"Your spine has been replaced," Liu Ping said.

The little girl seemed to have recalled something and spoke: "After the defeat in the past, the existence of the nightmare seemed to have done something to my body"

"That's right, this is a completely useless dragon spine" Liu Ping said.

"Then I"

"Don't worry, I've already helped you resolve this matter in the future"

"The future ..."

"Yes, the future"

After saying that, Liu Ping couldn't help but sigh.

"I have something to tell you" the little girl said.

Liu Ping looked at her.

"I've already forgotten too much about the battle in my previous life, but I vaguely remember that you and I challenged the nightmare together. We fought with it for a total of 300 years, but in the end, we were defeated" the little girl said.

"This matches my guess. If it wasn't afraid of you, why would it remove your spine?" Liu Ping said.

The little girl said: "In other words"

The two of them looked at each other.

The little girl said: "The method you came up with is correct, but it's not perfect"

Liu Ping said: "That's right, it's exactly like that"

The little girl looked around, only to see endless nightmare runes spreading in the sky, and the world was already bearing the power of the nightmare and was gradually collapsing.

She couldn't help but ask: "What do we do now?"

"Wait" Liu Ping said.

"Wait?" the little girl didn't understand.

"That's right" Liu Ping's gaze became as deep as the ocean abyss, "Ever since I obtained the Warden Saber, I've experienced several space-time transmigrations. Only then did I know that there are three types of laws in the timeline, namely time, space, and causality"

"Because of their effects, everything can operate correctly"

"So every time I return to the past, everything on me will return to the state of that moment, and in this main timeline, there's only one me"

"Is the Dark Executioner the same?" the little girl asked.

"It should be so, but what's surprising is that in that timeline, it can actually see itself in the past without dying! It's too strong! "Liu Ping said.

"In that case, there will be two of it appearing at the same time and fighting us at the same time" the little girl said.

"It's so powerful that just one of it is enough to affect the entire timeline. When two of it appear at the same time, time, space, and causality will all be in chaos."

Liu Ping revealed a thoughtful expression and continued: "As time progresses, this chaos will become stronger and stronger, causing unpredictable consequences ... But everything that has already happened will still happen in an orderly manner. What will happen when the two meet?"

The little girl said: "I'm afraid no one knows"

"Let's wait and see first" Liu Ping said.

...

On the other side.

Let's rewind time slightly.

On the main timeline.

The Dark Executioner flashed out of the room where the Dark Scale was hidden.

It appeared in the middle of the castle's plaza.

Another 'it' was standing on the plaza, countless dark threads were emitting from its body, destroying the supernatural phenomena that were constantly manifesting in the void of space.

" You ... are me, that's right, which part of the timeline did you come from? " the Dark Executioner asked.

" In the not-too-distant future " the other 'it' spoke, " I'm here to tell you that your scheme has been exposed "

"Is that so? That guy was clearly sleeping in the depths of the nightmare, how did it notice that I was plotting against it? " the Dark Executioner asked.

"Because of its Envoy " the other 'it' answered.

Suddenly.

From afar, a voice resounded from the other side of the castle:

"My comrades ..."

"... I have the 'mission' that great entity bestowed upon me ..."

The voice suddenly became triumphant:

"I know that you look down on me and think that I'm nothing but food, but now, it's time for me to challenge you!"

This was the umbrella bearer's voice.

At this point, he had just arrived in the Inner Plane.

He had been preparing for a long time, and at this moment, he had finally challenged the identity that he desired!

The Dark Executioner spoke with a cold tone "That insect-like Envoy ruined my plans? "

It casually struck the void of space.

A commotion suddenly resounded from the other side of the castle.

"It will never ruin anything again, thank you for reminding me, everything here will change accordingly " the Dark Executioner spoke.

The 'it' from the future fell silent.

" Any other questions? " the Dark Executioner asked.

" Yes ... it wasn't actually this Envoy, but another nightmare entity that defeated it" the 'it' from the future replied.

" Who was it? "

" Most likely a Nightmare Summoner, his first summon was the Soul Predator」

" A Summoner ... wait! "

The Dark Executioner's expression changed and instantly vanished.

It appeared in the room numbered 11-1.

But this room was empty, the Nightmare Summoner had already disappeared without a trace.

The other 'it' had also arrived.

"So that's what happened, you were looking for the thing that controlled the 'Sequence' here, but you ran into him? " the 'it' from the future asked.

"Indeed" the Dark Executioner replied.

The 'it' from the future suddenly trembled and muttered: " Oh no "

" What's the matter? " the Dark Executioner hurriedly asked.

" The black scale brought me back to this moment. Although I can see myself without dying, I still haven't obtained it at this moment, so I lost it! " the 'it' from the future said.

" That scale is the key to everything! " the Dark Executioner shouted.

They exchanged glances.

" We're going to the future you're in and get rid of that guy " the Dark Executioner said.

"That future has already turned into a parallel world " the 'it' from the future said.

" What does it matter, go kill him! Take back the scale! "

" Let's go! "

The two Executioners figures flashed and disappeared from the room.

...

The future.

A parallel world.

The void of space opened up as the two Dark Executioners flew out and landed in front of Liu Ping.

"Hand over the scale"

They spoke at the same time.

The little girl appeared despairing, while Liu Ping lightly patted her to comfort her.

He took out the black scale and slowly spoke:

"Today is truly a bad day, but I still have something to say"

"Eternal Nightmare"

At the very next moment.

A violent presence that surpassed all power in the void of space began to exude from the black scale.
