This continent was the very heart of the Eternal Night World—the Eternal Night Continent. Though called a "continent," it actually encompassed all forms of geography: land, mountains, swamps, oceans, mountain ranges—you name it. In fact, you couldn't even call the Eternal Night World a barren or desolate place. On the contrary, the Eternal Night World grew and thrived by plundering other worlds and stealing the resources and civilizations of others.
It's said that, in the beginning, Eternal Night was not powerful. But through countless invasions, it seized the resources, treasures, and even the races of other worlds. Through constant conquest, it evolved into its current terrifying state. In this world, each star was a world, and this continent was also a world of its own. Together, they made up what was truly known as the Eternal Night World. And at its core—its ultimate essence—was this very Eternal Night Continent.
It was so vast that even compared to the Primordial Continent of the Eternal World, it was bigger.
The natural treasures and resources here were immeasurable. Its true foundation was impossibly deep and strong.
Even during the invasion in the last era, when outside forces stormed the Eternal Night World, they never managed to cause any real damage to the Eternal Night Continent. That was how terrifying the foundation of Eternal Night was.
Floating above the Eternal Night Continent were thirteen massive blood moons, illuminating the entire land—and, in fact, the entire Eternal Night World. The majesty of these blood moons was beyond dispute. They were the true core of Eternal Night.
One could clearly see the thirteen blood moons constantly releasing radiant moonlight. But this light was not ordinary—it was the Power of Desire. To the many races of Eternal Night, desire was the strongest nutrient and resource. Whether cultivating divine powers or advancing one's cultivation base, the power of the blood moons was the most perfect source.
These thirteen moons were the ultimate source of power, absolutely central to Eternal Night.
Their existence was irreplaceable.
Should anything happen to them, the entire Eternal Night World would suffer catastrophic consequences. A crisis of unimaginable scale would erupt.
Surrounding the Eternal Night Continent—and scattered throughout its skies—were countless star worlds. These star realms were home to various powerful races. Oftentimes, a single dominant race would claim an entire star world—or several—as their territory and breeding ground.
Such star worlds in Eternal Night were too numerous to count.
Not only did Eternal Night plunder the outside world, but new star worlds were constantly being born and destroyed within. Simply put, Eternal Night was vast—vast beyond comprehension.
At this moment, drifting through the void of Eternal Night, was a massive black pyramid. The pyramid exuded a sinister aura and seemed to be wrapped in a natural camouflage. Even if it hovered right in front of you, it would remain completely invisible. It was incomparably eerie.
This was none other than the Myriad-Evil Hall.
By now, the Myriad-Evil Hall was a household name across Eternal Night.
Using the Eternal Evil Spirit Rankings, it had resurrected numerous ancient powerhouses from Eternal Night's forgotten eras. These terrifying figures were bound to the Hall by an indelible brand upon revival—they could not betray the Hall under any circumstance. Should they rebel, the Rankings could instantly obliterate them—body and soul. Furthermore, since their true spirits were fused into the register, even if they died in the outside world, they could be revived again.
Because of this, members of the Hall became utterly fearless.
Whether it was assassination or any mission, the Myriad-Evil Hall was infamous for its complete disregard for life and death. They would give everything to complete the mission—even die with their target. This wasn't rare; it was expected.
Thanks to this, the Hall's reputation skyrocketed in a very short time.
It took on all kinds of contracts—assassinations, protection, treasure hunts, or retrieval of rare artifacts. All of it could be handled, traded, or posted as tasks inside the Hall. Nothing was forbidden.
This transformed the Hall into a unique hub of activity.
Currently, inside the Hall was a vast internal space resembling a massive city. Buildings lined the area, bustling with a mix of powerful races: Blood Demons, Insectoids, Blade Demons, Ghosts, Flame Demons, Succubi, and more.
The city was lively, filled with stalls, shops, and wandering cultivators.
From the looks of it, millions lived here—proof of its thriving state.
Those who walked its streets were all powerful cultivators.
In fact, even proud elites of Eternal Night were a common sight here.
Why? Because this was one of the safest places in the entire Eternal Night World. All killing was forbidden here. No one dared to break this rule. If you tried to fight, you'd be killed instantly. No exceptions.
In a place like Eternal Night—where you had to sleep with one eye open—this kind of safety was precious. It was priceless.
Moreover, the Myriad-Evil Hall connected to various locations across Eternal Night—star worlds, blood moon regions, and even the Eternal Night Continent itself. Wherever the blood moon shone, the Hall could establish portals.
Here, one could acquire intelligence, issue missions, and trade for all sorts of resources—including rare treasures once deemed unreachable due to distance.
Even more critical was the Hall's exclusive resource:Evil Spirit Blood Crystals.
These blood crystals were immensely valuable to cultivators of Eternal Night. They could boost one's cultivation, strengthen bloodlines, and offer countless other benefits. Powerhouses flocked here just for them.
It was because of this that the Hall could develop at such an incredible pace.
Today, it was already one of the top forces in Eternal Night.
A terrifying entity few dared provoke.
Many demons trembled at the mere mention of its name—their faces turning pale in fear.
That's how much power and intimidation it commanded.
—
Right now, inside the Hall's central temple—the Evil Emperor Hall—a mysterious figure sat on the throne.
Wearing a black robe and covered in a dark mist that obscured his face, he exuded an aura of boundless mystery. Anyone present could vaguely sense it—he had reached the Dao Proving Realm.
Exactly what stage he'd reached, however, no one could say.
Dozens had gathered below—over a hundred powerful figures, from all races.
But they had one thing in common: each exuded a thick killing aura, and their eyes carried a cold, indifferent contempt for all living things.
Clearly, these were veterans who had climbed out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood. They had all survived countless life-and-death trials.
And yet, they all showed deference to the man on the throne.
If any Eternal Night powerhouses had witnessed this scene, they would've been scared out of their wits.
The Undying Demon Lord!
Bloodcry Crow Emperor!
Soul Devouring Demon Emperor!
The Crimson Queen!
Thousand-Face Demon Lord!
Ten-Thousand Blood Demon Emperor!
Demon Eye Ancestor!
…
None of these beings had cultivation beneath the Dao Proving Realm. A few even gave off a pressure more terrifying than ordinary Dao Proving. These were all top-tier ancient monsters resurrected via the Eternal Evil Spirit Rankings, formerly peerless overlords from forgotten eras.
Now gathered together, they didn't clash or provoke each other—each kept their peace.
Over a hundred Dao Proving cultivators.
This was the true foundation of the Myriad-Evil Hall. And its ability to revive fallen giants from history? An absolute trump card for building lasting power.
The robed figure—Yi Tianxie—spoke with a faint smile:
"Everyone, you're all aware of how we produce Evil Spirit Blood Crystals. They require massive quantities of resentment, baleful aura, the seven emotions and six desires—and most critically, a huge supply of life essence. Recently, we're running low on essence. We need to replenish. Any suggestions?"
The Undying Demon Lord replied calmly, "Essence shortage? Just destroy a few star worlds. I know of some Insectoid worlds nearby. The bugs multiply like weeds. Wipe out a few batches—they'll repopulate fast. They'll make a fine offering."
"Indeed. One or two isn't enough. Let's destroy ten of them," chuckled the Soul Devouring Demon Emperor.
These were old devils, after all. They had no mercy for the Eternal Night World. Selfish to the core, they'd done this kind of thing countless times before—genocide meant nothing to them.
Yi Tianxie smiled again."I heard the assassination attempt on the Lord of the Great Yi Sacred Court in the Eternal World has failed. Thoughts?"
A demon responded coldly,"Our reputation must not be tarnished. Since the mission was accepted, it must be completed. Even if it fails once, we must strike ten times. The Eternal World is our mortal enemy. Slay their prodigies while we can. If successful, we'll earn a massive reward from the Eternal Night."
According to the Hall's code, every assassination contract receives ten attempts. If after ten tries the target still lives, the mission is canceled. If they can survive that, they're considered unkillable.
And clearly—Yi Tianxing had survived the first. But the Myriad-Evil Hall… wasn't done yet.
