Damn, I Have to Marry the Strongest Antagonist at the Start?

In Pure Land, Sargeras' rampage was nothing compared to the terrifying evil spirits that had fused together!

These evil spirits were the epitome of extreme evil and madness, emotions that were impossible to reason with.

Once released, Pure Land would undoubtedly become their paradise!

At that point, the combined evil spirits would be far beyond anything they could currently contend with.

His father, the God of Light, had the power to suppress these evil spirits.

However, he had already been captured by The Celestial, his fate uncertain.

Meanwhile, the Lord of Stars and the War Goddess, though powerful enough to resist the evil spirits, were lost in the endless void, their return unknown.

Without the top ancient powers of their time, who could stand against the evil spirits of the Forgotten Land?

Moreover, the one heading to the Forgotten Land this time was Caesar.

Caesar had no physical body, but his celestial soul was immense. If he had made some unspoken pact with the evil spirits...

The more Venus thought about it, the more terrified she became!

The God of Alchemy, seeing Venus' changed expression, sighed and said,

"Caesar has always been eccentric, prone to extremes. Leslie's strength was unexpectedly powerful, which definitely struck a deep blow to him..."

Vanessa, realizing the situation, suddenly asked, "Venus, even though the evil spirits are powerful, Leslie is terrifying as well. Can she eliminate the evil spirits?"

Venus thought for a moment and shook her head. "I don't know. Leslie's strength is undoubtedly the strongest among the Throne Celestials, but these evil spirits are formidable, and once gathered together, what terrifying changes will occur? I can't say."

Neither Leslie nor the evil spirits were something Venus had thoroughly understood, so she dared not make a hasty conclusion.

"Whether she can resist the evil spirits, we can only know through actual combat. But based on my intuition, I think Leslie might have a chance of winning, but even if she does win, it will be a pyrrhic victory!"

Upon hearing this, neither Vanessa nor the God of Alchemy spoke further, their expressions subdued.

After all, Leslie's strength was the most formidable of the Throne Celestials they had seen. If she didn't have confidence in victory, what hope did they have?

...

Meanwhile, deep within the Forgotten Land.

As the dark side of this universe, the landscape here was entirely different from typical dimensions.

It was pitch black, with no light visible, the air thick and swampy, giving a strange, sticky feeling.

As one ventured deeper into this eerie darkness, the howls and screams of agony from across the void grew louder and clearer.

This place seemed like a paradise of suffering, a resting place for countless souls of the dead.

The air was so dense with death energy that it seemed almost impossible to disperse, filling every corner of this dark dimension.

At this moment, in this world of the dead,

There was a deep, blackened soul figure steadily moving deeper into the abyss.

It was none other than Caesar!

At this time, his soul, pulsing with intense soul energy, emitted frenzied thoughts.

"Owen!"

"Leslie!"

"Venus!"

As his remnants spread, the dark space rippled, and the evil spirits nearby, sensing a presence they feared, all scattered.

No evil spirit dared to approach. Venus was still moving deeper, her heart filled with only one thought—revenge!

After feeling Leslie's explosive aura and realizing the situation was dire, he trusted his instincts and fled!

Not long after his retreat, he received news that Sargeras and the other Throne Celestials left behind had been easily annihilated by her!

How terrifying was her power?

He felt relieved—had he stayed, he would have certainly died!

Before he left, he had spared Owen, and this only made his hatred for Owen more intense!

Venus was his own in heart, his trusted partner.

But Venus was also deeply in love with Owen.

And Owen was the one who had taken his rightful leader's position.

That debt had not yet been settled!

Though Owen had been gravely injured and fallen into the Demon Abyss, Caesar's instincts told him that Owen would not perish so easily.

But the immediate priority now was to kill Leslie!

Leslie's strength and influence had been on par with Owen's before, and after her recent breakthrough, she was several times stronger!

Caesar knew he was no match for her, so he had no choice but to come here and temporarily hide.

He was also here to awaken the evil spirits!

As a soul figure like them, he thrived in this dark realm and was well aware of its power and danger.

At present, the only being capable of challenging Leslie was the Evil Spirit Marshal!

His resolve unwavering, and aided by his unique soul state, Caesar ventured deeper into this forsaken land.

But the environment grew increasingly dire.

Countless evil spirits, twisted and bound by malevolent Orders and thoughts, let out tortured screams.

At a glance, these evil spirits took the form of grotesque and malformed soul figures.

Behind these twisted spirits were special black pupils.

These black pupils, about the size of a palm, were engraved with ancient runes that emitted an overwhelming dark aura.

The moment Caesar's soul gaze met one of these pupils, his own soul's sight exploded, leaving two fist-sized indentations in his vision.

However, Caesar was thrilled—he had found the fabled Evil Spirit Marshal!

The Evil Spirit Marshal, Revan!

"Marshal, I invoke your true name. Awaken! Awaken! The one who awakens you will be the one to bring about the destruction of this dimension!"

As Caesar's voice grew louder, the runes on the black pupil began to glow, and a massive, illusory figure made entirely of dark thoughts appeared in the space between heaven and earth!

...

Deep within the Demon Abyss,

Owen's body felt like a falling meteor, continuously descending into the deeper darkness, the howling winds rushing past his ears.

"Leslie, you've finally turned to darkness!"

After falling into the Demon Abyss, Owen sensed that Leslie's emotions had become like stagnant water, no longer exhibiting the normal fluctuations of a human soul.

Leslie could faintly sense her own emotions, and Owen could also sense Leslie's!

He knew that after being surrounded and falling into the Abyss, Leslie had been greatly affected.

Owen hadn't wanted this outcome, but it seemed that the system's mission loomed over him like a sword, and he had no choice but to proceed!

Leslie must be corrupted; she must awaken the Dark Heart and become the ultimate villain!

With this thought, Owen slowly opened his eyes.

Now that the plan was in motion, it was time to leave.

Just as he was about to stop his descent, he suddenly realized that the mana in his body was sealed by this strange power.

This was to be expected. The Demon Abyss was already a terrifying place, and after the Millennial Cataclysm, it had become even more dangerous. Even the Throne Celestials who entered would have their magic sealed, turning them into ordinary mortals.

But Owen had already anticipated this. He quickly took out a glass vial from his pocket and drank the World Tree liquid within.

This liquid, collected by Rachel, contained the power of the world and could break the strange seals here.

After all, the power of the world was a higher-dimensional force compared to this place.

As time passed, Owen's body suddenly felt a series of chains breaking within him, and rich mana began to surge through him, wild and free.

With the return of his mana, Owen's senses sharpened rapidly.

He suddenly realized that not far below him was the bottom of the Demon Abyss!

Without hesitation, his mind focused, and powerful elemental forces enveloped him, slowing his descent.

At the bottom of the Demon Abyss, it was pitch black, with not a single trace of light.

As Owen prepared to summon light elements to illuminate the area, a ball of pink flame suddenly fell from above.
