The high heavens that reached into the sky tore apart the disguise of this world, exposing the false sun transformed by the eye of dusk to the vision of all living things.
Shen Yuan could clearly see the emotions emanating from those dim eyes without any obstruction from the heavens and the earth.
Shock, anger, astonishment, and a hint of surprise that was hard to conceal.
He is in a state of being integrated with heaven and earth, replacing the will of this heaven and earth with his own will. This makes His status transcend the boundaries of this heaven and earth, but He is also restricted by the rules of heaven and earth.
As the will of heaven and earth, it is impossible for Him to manifest His true form and intervene in the struggle between heaven and earth, because this would be a violation of the rules and a destruction of His own foundation.
Therefore, when dealing with the other four true spirit cultivators, He adopted the method of guiding the demon force to breed three demon kings, thereby mobilizing the demon force to eliminate the four true spirit cultivators.
After the four soul-refining masters failed, Shen Yuan's existence was exposed to his perception.
He began to realize that even the threat posed by the four true spirit cultivators combined was far less than that posed by Shen Yuan.
Shen Yuan has something in his hand that can truly threaten Him.
So he decisively led the demons to attack Shen Yuan, trying to kill Shen Yuan, the source of danger, before the situation worsened.
Restricted by the rules of this world, if Shen Yuan was on the earth, he could only rely on the demon armies of the three demon kings to gather the power of the demons to attack Shen Yuan, and he could not use his real body power at all.
However, the million-strong army of demons was instantly destroyed under Shen Yuan's layout, and the only combat power that could truly threaten Shen Yuan was the three great demon kings who had just entered the realm of returning to emptiness.
Shen Yuan has extraordinary means, although the aura he displays is only at the level of spirit refining. If he can really resist the attacks of the three demon kings in some way and buy precious time for the sacred tree to give birth to the sun and the moon, the outcome may still be uncertain.
However, after Shen Yuan destroyed an army of millions of demons, he lost his mind and raised the wasteland into the sky, facing the area where the spider demon was with his real body.
In this situation, the spider demon has every chance to use its true body to kill Shen Yuan, cut down the sacred tree, and completely eliminate all disasters.
The malice in the Eyes of Dusk could no longer be concealed, and the space above the sky was slightly distorted, revealing a phantom of a monster that was almost as huge as the entire sky.
As long as he breaks away from the state of being integrated with heaven and earth, the power of a single blow will be enough to destroy everything above Takama-ga-hara and nip all threats in the bud.
But, is everything really that simple?
The spider demon looked at the fairy-like figure in white under the sacred tree and after thinking for a while, he decided not to use his real body to attack. Instead, he issued orders to the three demon kings.
"Kill him!"
High in the sky, the spider demon's body was integrated with the will of the world and was able to exert its full potential.
The three demon kings were bred and born under the interference of the spider demon. They could not disobey the spider demon's orders at all. With gloomy expressions, the three demon kings had already started to take action.
The Great Tengu spread his wings and waved the round fan in his hand. The strong man in the Void Realm already had the ability to interfere with the heaven and earth with his own will. A huge tornado that penetrated the heaven and earth took shape in an instant.
The howling wind swept across an area of dozens of miles. The huge storm shook the entire Takama-ga-hara. The clouds in the sky were all swallowed up by the storm. The tornado, accompanied by dark purple thunder, crashed into the sacred tree.
Shen Yuan, who was standing under the sacred tree, simply raised his right hand, formed a seal with his hand, and chanted softly:
"Di Shi Kun!"
The next moment, the earth veins gathered and mountains rose from the ground. Shen Yuan had spent more than ten years to sort out the veins of the earth with the mother energy of all things. He could easily control every earth vein in Takama-ga-hara with the help of the Xuanhuang Bagua Formation.
The mountain peak pierced into the center of the tornado like a sharp sword. The heavy power of the earth veins shook the storm and blocked the tornado on the outside.
However, at the first moment when the mountain rose from the ground, the earth suddenly shook violently. Shuten Douji, the lord of Mount Oe, held a huge wine bowl in his left hand and drank wantonly, while his right hand was already pressing on a mountain where the earth veins converged.
"collapse!"
The absolutely domineering force smashed down heavily, causing the mountains to collapse and the earth to crack. The originally stable veins of the earth became extremely chaotic at this moment.
Shuten-doji's red hair was in disarray, and with a heart-pounding madness on his face, he strode towards the sacred tree. No matter whether the veins of the earth turned into mountains or canyons, they could not block his absolutely domineering attack.
In front of the two great demon kings in the Return to Void Realm, even the power of the earth veins could only temporarily alleviate the crisis and was unable to truly stop such powerful men.
However, Shen Yuan's gaze did not linger on the two of them for too long. His eyes had already fallen on the enchanting figure that had appeared under the sacred tree at some point.
She was wearing loose clothes with her breasts half exposed, and under the slit hem, her legs were long and white like ivory. Her every frown and smile made her look like a peerless enchantress who brought disaster to the world, touching people's hearts.
Just as the two demon kings were fighting against the Veins of the Earth, Tamamonomae had already arrived under the sacred tree to face Shen Yuan.
The slender hand was gently raised, and the nails on it were as crystal as jade, like a fine work of art, quietly reaching out to Shen Yuan, like the flirtation between lovers, but beneath that seemingly gentle movement hid a heart-pounding murderous intent.
“clang!”
A rusty ancient sword blocked Tamamonomae's outstretched right hand. Amid the roar of metal clashing, the murderous intent was revealed in an instant.
Tamamonomae's body shape changed, and his hand, which was like a work of art, turned into sharp claws again and swung down, but was still blocked by the seemingly ordinary ancient sword.
Shen Yuan held the Huiming Sword in his hand, and the Xuanhuang Qi had already merged into the Huiming Sword. The sword and Qi became one with the mountains, rivers, and land, stretching across his chest.
Just standing here, Shen Yuan seemed to be able to connect with the veins of the earth of Takama-ga-hara, carrying the heavy foundation of this hundred-mile plateau.
Every swing of the sword could accurately block Tamamonomae's attack and forcibly stop the rising murderous intent.
There was no longer any relaxation in Tamamonomae's eyes as she fought with Shen Yuan. She could clearly sense that every time she attacked, she was forcibly interrupted before her momentum reached its peak.
The seemingly light sword edge seemed to carry the entire plateau, and the heavy force of the sword was enough to make her blood boil.
No matter what means she used, she could not break through the defense set up by the sword of the man in front of her. However, Shen Yuan was not invincible no matter the strength or means he exerted.
This feeling that everything was calculated by others and that she was controlled by others in every way made Tamamonomae feel indescribably suffocated.
At this time, Daitengu and Shuten-doji had already broken through the blockade of the mountains and earth veins and rushed under the sacred tree.
Before this happened, Shuten-doji's outrageous words were heard under the sacred tree.
"I admit that he has some skills, but after all, he is only comparable to a cultivator in the Spirit Refining Realm. You are one major realm higher than him, but you are still unable to hold your ground. It seems that your title of Great Demon King is completely unworthy of its name."
“Damn it!”
Tamamonomae's expression suddenly changed. As a great demon king, it was impossible for her to be affected by just a few words from Shuten-doji.
But as Shuten-doji spoke, she could clearly sense that the dim yellow eye above the sky was actually looking at her.
In the scrutinizing gaze of the Eyes of Dusk, Tamamonomae felt an indescribable malice.
Tamamonomae realized that she had to make certain achievements to gain the approval of the will of heaven and earth, and her beautiful face revealed an undisguised murderous intent.
"Innate magical power, stunning beauty!"
Nine illusory fox tails forcibly broke through Shen Yuan's sword, locking Shen Yuan's soul like shackles and dragging him into the illusion created by the magical power.
Shen Yuan transformed himself into an emperor and lit a beacon fire to attract the army, just for a smile from the concubine transformed by Tamamonomae.
He also indulged in wine and women, and had fun with his concubine.
All the power and prosperity in the world constantly led Shen Yuan into a state of loss. In an instant, the world had changed drastically and he was sinking into despair for a hundred generations.
No matter how Shen Yuan mobilized the Xuanhuang Qi, he was still unable to block the influence of the innate magical powers that went straight into his soul. Shen Yuan could already feel that his soul was beginning to fall into ignorance, and the spiritual light in his spirit platform was constantly dimming.
Once the light of the spiritual platform is extinguished, Shen Yuan will forever fall into the illusion of overwhelming beauty and find it difficult to find his true self.
"With the help of Xuan Huang Qi and the great power of the earth veins accumulated over more than ten years, I have barely reached a level comparable to that of a true spirit cultivator in the way of refining Qi.
However, the foundation of all this is only the Xuanhuang Qi and the trend of the earth veins. After all, they are not his own power, so he can be so easily affected by the law of spirit and soul.
If one truly cultivates into a Yang God, and survives external disasters without damaging his Yang God, he will surely be able to resist this innate magical power that goes straight into his soul."
"Power that does not belong to you is ultimately just a castle in the air, a mirage."
He let out a sigh in his heart, and his sight seemed to transcend the illusion, and he saw the three demon kings gathered under the sacred tree.
"Since we are planting trees, how can we not water them?"
In the illusion, Shen Yuan formed a seal with his hands and chanted softly:
"Call for rain!"
Tamamonomae, who had transformed into a concubine and was leaning against Shen Yuan's side, had a look of sarcasm in her eyes. The illusion was created by her will and everything was illusory.
Under the foundation of illusion, even the magical powers of the devil are difficult to display.
But just the next moment, as Shen Yuan's voice fell, the illusion of the most beautiful woman in the world came to a standstill in an instant.
The sky in the illusion was changing rapidly as if the world was about to be destroyed. The terrifying pressure directly tore the illusion apart. Tamamonomae, who was standing under the sacred tree, was stunned, his eyes full of disbelief.
Then in the outside world, a huge amount of dark clouds covered the sky and swallowed up all the light between heaven and earth.
A dark red bolt of lightning fell, as if the ancient god of thunder swung his giant hammer and smashed a big hole in the sky.
In an instant, the Milky Way flowed backwards, and a huge amount of water from the Milky Way seemed to embellish the stars in the sky and rushed down towards the sacred tree. The three demon kings were submerged by the water of the Milky Way in an instant.
Being in the midst of a heavy rain transformed from the water of the Milky Way, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is cut off at this moment, and any magical powers and spells are wiped out under the water of the Milky Way.
Tamamonomae was terrified and wanted to fly up into the sky, but the water in the Milky Way was so deep that not even a feather could float on it, and it was difficult for birds to fly over.
Among all the realms, only the true dragons and the heavenly soldiers of the Tianhe River have the ability to cross the water of the Tianhe River. No matter how powerful the great demon king Huanxu is, she is simply unable to break through the water of the Tianhe River.
The three demon kings all sank under the backflow of the Milky Way water, while the sacred tree that perched on the entire mountain was now bathing in the Milky Way water, its branches and leaves swaying as if in joy.
The water of the Milky Way that nurtured starlight was absorbed in large quantities by the sacred tree, and the sun and moon fruits nurtured under the sacred tree began to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye.
And this is exactly Shen Yuan’s purpose.
Drawing water from the Milky Way to irrigate the sacred tree is a crucial part of Shen Yuan's plan.
However, the power of the rain-calling ability is bound to be difficult to conceal. Once the water of the Milky Way is drawn in advance, there is no doubt that one's trump card will be exposed to the spider demon's sight in advance.
Therefore, Shen Yuan planned to use his rain-calling ability to suppress the three demon kings and water the sacred tree at the same time, thus achieving two goals at one stroke.
If Shen Yuan had not already had this idea in mind, there was no way he would have chosen to fight the three demon kings head-on.
Because Shen Yuan knew very well that he would surely be defeated if he faced the three demon kings in the Return to Void Realm directly without using his great ability to call for rain!
On the sacred tree, the sun fruit was shining even brighter, as if it could break away from the sacred tree and turn into a big sun at any time.
As the Milky Way flooded back, the three demon kings drowned under the water and struggled to survive.
Such a scene finally made the spider demon, who had been watching coldly, unable to sit still.
He realized that the three demon kings could not suppress the sacred tree. If he did not take action until the sun was fully conceived, it would definitely shake his foundation.
The huge body that almost occupied the entire Takama-ga-hara peeled off from the state of merging with the heaven and earth, revealing its extremely huge true form.
The eight black spider legs were like pillars of heaven suppressing the world, and the huge body covered the sky and swallowed up all light like a nightmare.
In the center of his head, the Eye of Dusk that replaced the sun also peeled off from the sky and turned into the dim yellow eye in the center of His head.
The terrifying aura on him surpassed the boundaries of this world. He was like a god above gods who dominated the heavens and the earth. As he revealed his true form, a large number of demons that had originally disappeared on the earth began to be born rapidly.
He is the embodiment of all the demons in this world, and is undoubtedly the most powerful creature.
He locked his eyes on the sacred tree and Shen Yuan, and raised his spider-like legs that were like pillars of heaven, as if he was ready to kill Shen Yuan with the same force he had done more than a decade ago.
Facing the spider demon that had revealed its true form, Shen Yuan showed a relieved smile on his face.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, Tsuchigumo!"
The next moment, Shen Yuan's ability to summon rain was pushed to its extreme. The hole in the sky, which had originally only cracked, expanded rapidly, enough to turn into a vast amount of water from the sky river that washed down in an instant, forming a thousand-mile swamp.
Caught off guard, the huge body of the earth spider smashed to the ground under the impact of the water of the Milky Way. Even powerful creatures beyond the boundaries of this world could hardly resist the power of the Tiangang magic.
The Earth Spider's eyes froze, and he roared in shock and anger:
"You plotted against me!"
At this moment, the water of the Milky Way is more than a hundred times more turbulent than before?
It was difficult to use his magical powers in the water of the Milky Way that was cut off from spiritual energy. Instead, his huge body became a burden as he had to hold back the vast majority of the water of the Milky Way, completely suppressing him.
Only then did he realize that Shen Yuan's initiative to ascend to the sky seemed to be seeking death, but in fact it was to lure him to reveal his true form and be suppressed by the water of the Milky Way.
“Although the water of the Heavenly River is extraordinary, it cannot kill me.
With your strength, this extraordinary magical power will not last long. When the magical power ends, you will die!"
Tsuchigumo's words brought a smile to Shen Yuan's face.
Magical power cannot last? This may be true for other magical powers, but the essence of the Unreachable Rain-Calling Magical Power is just a medium to summon the water of the Tianhe River. As long as Shen Yuan is willing, he can even keep it on all the time.
The only concern is that if the water of the Milky Way is allowed to overflow, it is very likely to submerge the entire Xuanhuang Realm, and at that time, it may destroy all living beings in the world.
However, Shen Yuan spent so much effort to lure the Earth Spider to appear, naturally it was not to temporarily suppress Him.
Thinking of this, Shen Yuan turned his head and looked at the sun fruit that was shining brightly under the sacred tree.
"The sun, it's time to come out!"
The next moment, a dazzling light burst out from under the sacred tree.
There was a raging flame burning on the outer layer of the Sun Fruit, and the sun's light that had been accumulated for more than ten years had now removed all its disguises.
A rising sun slowly ascends from Takama-ga-hara into the sky, taking over this world!
