Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

Princess Summer was still under the control of Black Jack. Her soul seemed to have sunk into a cold swamp, and her body was shivering.

Theresa held her tightly, as if she were trying to break the seal that locked her soul with her strong heartbeat.

"Sister Summer, wake up! Wake up now!" Theresa shouted.

Princess Summer turned a deaf ear and even attacked Theresa after a moment of rigidness.

In a hurry, Theresa grabbed Princess Summer's wrist and bit the girl's lips hard.

The bite was so deep that blood was flowing out and wetting the corners of their mouths.

Princess Summer moaned and finally woke up from the excruciating pain.

It took her ten seconds to concentrate the brilliance in her eyes.

Her delicate body was shivering, as if she were a drowning victim who had just been rescued. She was still in the horror of suffocation.

"What… is… going on?"

Princess Summer licked the wound on her lips. Looking at the hellish scenes around her, she was so scared that her blood was freezing. "What happened to Hela, Natasha, and everybody else?"

"Don't you see? You've all been fooled by Black Jack!"

Pointing at Black Jack, who was fighting against Lord Cooper not far away, Theresa said bitterly, "Look. This is the real Black Jack!"

"Ah!"

Princess Summer focused her eyes and was greatly shocked. Her face and her hands were cold and pale. She could not believe her eyes and burst into tears. "It's impossible. How did Black Jack become like this? What—what happened to Black Jack?"

"He did not 'turn into this'. This is his true appearance, a monster named 'Devourer'. Or rather, he has been possessed by the Devourer since long ago.

Theresa said coldly, "Think about your past and everything you did for him willingly. You did not love him willingly at all. You were hypnotized by him and controlled by your brain, your heart, your every nerve ending, your seven emotions and six desires, and your entire life!

Princess Summer was dumbfounded as if she had been struck by lightning.

"It's impossible. It's… impossible…" she mumbled, her body getting colder and colder.

"The truth is right in front of you. How long are you going to fool yourself?"

Seeing the heartbroken expression on Princess Summer's face, Theresa empathized with her. She wanted to make up another beautiful lie to fool her, but the situation was too urgent. Theresa had to steel her heart and shout, "Black Jack knew of the existence of the crimson palace a long time ago. He started making plans a long time ago. The reason he sought out Hela, Natasha, and all of you was to draw strength from your love for him and treat you as super-large 'human batteries'. Well, you don't know what batteries mean. They are sacrifices. You are all his sacrifices and stepping stones on his path to conquering the stars.

"Look at the sisters around us. Black Jack will suck them to death, and so will you if I didn't cut off his tentacles in time!"

His words finally woke Princess Summer up.

Seeing that the girls, who had been living with each other day and night and treated each other like sisters, were still launching suicidal attacks at the strong devils of the Hell Destroyer Tribe crazily like skeleton soldiers, and that their strength and even their lives were being transmitted to Black Jack through the bright gold tentacles, Princess Summer understood everything.

At first, the brilliance in his eyes cracked, shattered, and dimmed. But in the blink of an eye, an incomparably firm and resolute flame burst forth.

"We have to save them."

Princess Summer spat blood in Black Jack's direction and gnashed her teeth. "We have to rescue all our sisters and wake them up!"

"How?"

Theresa smiled bitterly. "We were lucky enough to cut off the tentacles that controlled you when Black Jack was fighting against Lord Cooper. Now that Black Jack is prepared, we won't have the chance to cut off the other tentacles one by one. Let's figure out how we can get away first before we come back for revenge!"

"Well…"

Princess Summer was confused. "Are we going to run away without our sisters?"

"It's good enough that you got away. Come with me!"

Grabbing Princess Summer, Theresa crouched and tried to reduce the area where she was discovered and attacked.

The Hell Destroyer and Black Jack's puppets were engaged in a fierce battle nearby. They were too busy fighting to bother about the newcomers.

Theresa's destination, on the other hand, was the channel leading to the central area of the bridge that had just been opened by Senior Master Cooper!

It was the only way out.

Although they did not know what was waiting for them in the central control area of Jade, the super warship of the Primeval Civilization, which was the heart of the entire Blood Demon Sector in the crimson palace, everything was better than anything else.

I have no choice but to try!

Gritting her teeth, Theresa suddenly accelerated and sprinted with Princess Summer.

Black Jack immediately noticed their anomaly and guessed Theresa's plan.

Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi!

Countless tentacles spurted at them like the internal organs of devils.

Theresa pushed Princess Summer toward the pathway of the central area of the bridge, while she turned around and grasped the edge of her saber.

His palm was cut. Blood immediately flowed out. The zigzagging red lines interweaved on the saber and cut it into countless pieces.

Theresa mumbled something. Her eyes turned into two transparent gems that were reflecting brilliance that was even more brilliant than a nebula.

BAM!

The saber broke into countless pieces, which turned into high-speed metal rays and bombarded Black Jack's tentacles.

It was the strongest attack spell that Theresa could summon.

Drenched in blood, the scraps of the blade turned into crimson brightness and blocked Black Jack's tentacles temporarily like a meteor shower.

It was a pity that Theresa had acted in a hurry and the duration of the spell was too short.

A moment later, Black Jack's tentacles devoured the streak of redness and continued attacking them like a raging flood.

At the critical moment, Lord Cooper gave them a hand.

He hated Black Jack's sordid ambitions so much that he would rather let Theresa and Princess Summer enter the central area of the bridge than let the monster named Black Jack touch the most sacred palace of the Blood Demon Sector.

"You can forget about getting what I can't!

With a weird laugh, the overwhelming aura of the sword enveloped Black Jack and halted his tentacles.

Theresa and Princess Summer took the opportunity to crawl into the central area of the bridge!
