Worldwide Simulation Era

In the unknown skyline, a group of battle-worn Immortals stood in the sky, looking at the dazzling light in the southwest with pained expressions.

"Even Hall Master Hong…"

The light was unprecedentedly dazzling. Even from thousands of miles away, one could sense the terror that came from it.

Everyone knew it was Hall Master Hong's self-destruction. Only he, the existence second only to the three High Gods, could unleash such terrifying energy.

"Those demons are all dead?" Someone asked hopefully.

"The power of the demons is far more than that. The king behind them has yet to appear. Even if the ones here are all dead, what awaits us in the future will be an even more tragic battle."

The surviving Hall Masters all had heavy hearts.

Someone asked blankly, "What do we do next?"

Although everyone could escape, for the time being, no one had any idea what to do next.

The whereabouts of the three High Gods were unknown, but there were still more powerful forces on the evil side that had yet to be mobilized. What could they rely on to fight the demons?

Everyone fell silent.

After a long while, a Hall Master slowly stood up. "Perhaps we still have a chance..."

The one who spoke was a middle-aged man carrying a giant hammer on his back.

He was the only expert at the peak of the Celestial Realm left in the Heavenly God Palace.

"There's still a chance?"

All the survivors turned to look at him.

The burly man with the giant hammer nodded with a solemn expression. "Everyone, don't forget that the antidote has appeared. He might be our last hope."

Hearing this, many people fell silent. They had not forgotten about Lin Qiye.

Previously, Lin Qiye was summoned by the three High Gods, who then went into seclusion.

Everyone knew that.

However, no one present believed Lin Qiye could lead them to resolve the upcoming crisis.

"Hall Master Wei, although we're in a difficult situation, it's not necessary for us to seek protection from a little fellow at the Human Immortal Realm, right?" A late-stage Celestial Realm Hall Master stepped forward and spoke.

Many people nodded. They all knew that Lin Qiye was only in the Human Immortal Realm.

"I'm not talking about seeking his protection. Have you forgotten what the three High Gods told us about the sixth branch of the prophecy?"

At the mention of the prophecy branch, the expressions of the dozen Hall Masters froze.

As the Hall Masters of the Heavenly God Palace, they frequently interacted with the three High Gods from 100,000 years ago. Naturally, their understanding of the prophecy was far better than others.

"The sixth branch of the prophecy… The antidote will heal this world..."

Someone muttered in a low voice. Soon, more people reacted.

"You mean… I understand now! So, the hope in despair refers to this matter! We're saved!"

Others might not know the meaning of the word 'antidote,' but the dozens of Hall Masters knew it very well.

"Hall Master Wei, since we might already be in the sixth branch of the prophecy, should we hide first and wait for the prophecy to come true?"

"No, the whereabouts of the three High Gods are unknown. We have to ensure nothing happens to the antidote before the High God returns."

The burly man's words made everyone present look at each other.

"You mean we should go and protect the Holy Infant Temple Master now?"

"That's right. We have to do it now."

Lin Qiye's cultivation was only in the Human Immortal Realm. He had no chance of surviving the powerful army of demons.

Indeed, the burly man with the giant hammer did not mention Lin Qiye seeking protection. Instead, he wanted to protect the antidote and wait for his true savior.

Many people fell into hesitation.

The members of the Heavenly God Palace had long known that Lin Qiye had been targeted by demons.

Now that the demons were ready, they began their full-scale invasion.

The demon race's biggest enemy, the Heavenly God Palace, was already on the verge of collapse. Their next target would definitely be the antidote, Lin Qiye.

If they went to Lin Qiye's side now, they would fight the demons head-on.

It was not easy for them to escape with their lives. Who would be willing to die again?

"What are you all doing? Let's go. If Lin Qiye dies before the High Gods return, none of us could live!"

"Yes! This is our last chance!"
