Chapter 584 An Ant's Attempt to Shake the Sky: Fall and Breakthrough!
The first to suffer was the Demon Lord of Refining Heaven...
The Chaotic Layer of the Ice Prison Realm.
As the area closest to the boundary wall, this was the first place the master and disciple of the Void Dharma Lineage passed through.
Decades have passed.
The Demon Lord of Refining Heaven is still trying to use the power of chaos to refine the power of demonic creation, and then use the world energy obtained from the Dao of Refining Heaven to neutralize the risks.
I want to reach that legendary realm.
However, even though he had calculated every step, and even considered the rules of immortals, and wanted to use the power of the ancient demons to resist, he did not seek to completely break the constraints of the rules.
All that's needed is a small opening to accommodate this anomaly.
The rules apply to the whole world, not just him.
therefore.
His reasoning is logically plausible, but the problem is... he doesn't understand the rules, nor does he understand the power of the immortals.
Seeing only a part of the whole picture makes it easy to overlook the true nature of things.
This can lead to a chain reaction.
He was stuck at the last step. He believed he had reached the breakthrough standard in terms of demonic energy, primordial spirit strength, and even his understanding of space.
What should have been a smooth breakthrough was abruptly halted at the very last step.
Until now.
The intensity of the chaotic power gradually surpassed the constantly depleted life force of the demon. If this continued, he might be refined into world energy by the chaos itself.
Whatever you have taken, after death you shall return it all to heaven and earth.
The Taoist Kongkong passed by this place with his disciple in tow, casually throwing the unworthy disciple off and transmitting his voice into the disciple's ear.
"After dealing with Lian Tian, it's time for Wang Yu. The kid from the East Sea is on his way to Golden Toad City. You don't have much time, so you need to finish this quickly. I need to suppress the Ancient Demon immediately."
The purple sword light flashed past swiftly, without slowing down or stopping.
Zhong Yingzheng, the youngest disciple of the Prison King Spirit Official and the Void Dharma Lineage, nodded solemnly, then his gaze met that of the Refining Heaven Demon Lord at the edge of chaos.
He grinned.
"Lian Tian, we meet again."
Lian Tian, who was in the midst of a breakthrough, did not look too good.
He said, half resigned and half helpless, "With your abilities, you shouldn't be able to find me, so... that streak of light just now must have been from a Dao Integration expert?"
"My master was the previous Prison King, Lingguan."
"I see."
The Heavenly Refining Realm returned to calm.
"You've come to kill me?"
"nature."
After using the Wedding Dress Secret Technique, Zhong Ying's cultivation level dropped to the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm. It was not something that could be recovered in a short time, and she would need to start cultivating back to the original level.
But this time it was a real 1v1, without any schemes or calculations, just a brutal clash of fists, and the result was obvious.
The failure rate of Lian Tian is close to 100%.
"This is not the outcome I expected. I also wish to take a look at all the myriad paths and realms of existence."
"The Celestial Palace doesn't need a genius of your caliber."
"Yes... So the Celestial Palace has never really taken you seriously, but you have a sect and your master values you, which is why you can sit high on the clouds and look down on an ant like me."
When Zhong Ying heard Lian Tian's self-deprecating account, he sensed a hint of mockery in it, and a sense of unease crept into his heart.
He reached out and beckoned.
The Void Banner appeared in his hand. This sixth-grade top-quality spiritual treasure was his natal artifact, and one of its most powerful functions was called the [Void Shadow Myriad Divine Banner]!
To put it bluntly, this treasure has the ability to create clones.
It can be used to deploy formations, slay enemies, seal off areas, manipulate space, and connect different spatial nodes. While its direct offensive power is not top-tier, its functionality is very comprehensive.
"I sense your resentment. What... do you still want to use the Annihilation Divine Light of the Chaos Pivot Battleship? With your current power, you simply cannot activate it."
"--yes!"
The Demon Lord of Refining Heaven smiled nonchalantly, as if relieved and freed.
He suddenly burst into laughter:
"Though ants are small, they can stir up storms with the flapping of their wings; though the sky is high, a determined mind can eventually reach its peak."
"Do not laugh at the insignificance of an ant, for it dares to testify its ambition to the heavens. With a demonic heart that shines like the sun and moon, it refines poison, refines people... and even refines the heavens!"
In an instant.
Chaos surged, and the Demon Lord of Refining Heaven used his own body as a hub to frantically absorb the power of chaos into his body. At the same time, the Chaos Pivot Warship that appeared from the Qiankun Ring accumulated the divine light of world destruction at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Having exhausted all his options, he could only choose to perish in a way that proved that even the wrath of an ant can overturn the heavens!
The quality of the divine power is insufficient.
The power of the world can be used, and similarly, the power of chaos of extremely high quality can also be used as an energy source to drive the world-destroying warship, even if his body will completely decay and perish under the impact of chaos after this.
He won't regret it.
From the moment the plan was set, there was an awareness that it was all or nothing; without breaking through the rules of immortals, one could not possess the strength of the Void Refinement stage.
This leads to a chain reaction.
Unable to contend with Zhong Ying, let alone that formidable Dao-Merging expert, a heroic death was the final end he chose for himself.
Regardless of his past.
At that moment, he was the most principled and ambitious hero in the world.
"hateful."
Zhong Ying suddenly raised the Void Banner, and the image of the split banner quickly appeared in the distance. The two communicated to open a spatial traversal wormhole, and his figure quickly darted into it.
"it's useless."
"—The Great Extinction Chaos Hole Annihilates the Heavenly Light!!!"
Amidst endless light, the body of the Heavenly Demon Lord rapidly turned to dust, and his primordial spirit also perished simultaneously, eventually disappearing without a trace as an invisible speck of light.
This is the true spirit, the essence of life. Reincarnation is the reincarnation of this true spirit. One of the two strongest beings at the peak of the Ice Prison Realm died hastily in a corner unknown to anyone.
A generation of demon lords has fallen.
No one mourned, no one was saddened, and no one knew.
…………
"Aaaaaaah!"
The Ice Prison Realm, the Chaotic Ancient East Sea.
Zhong Ying collapsed in a sorry state on the nameless deserted island. Most of his magical treasures were destroyed, and his natal spiritual treasure, the Void Banner, was also emitting black smoke. Half of the Void Dao patterns engraved on the banner had disappeared.
It can be said that its vitality has been severely damaged.
The physical body was severely damaged, with half of the body turned into a mixture of bone fragments and flesh, making it unrecognizable as human.
He survived this time under the Great Extinction Chaos and World-Slaying Light only because the secret techniques of the Void Dharma Vein were profound enough. If he had been in the Black Sea World of the World-Suppressing Turtle... he would have died long ago.
"Damn world-destroying warships, damn the Heaven-Refining Blade!"
Being bombarded by such an extraordinary treasure was not his fault.
It was the enemy's unreasonable cheating that saddened him, and he also began to resent the Azure Blood Dragon Lord. If it weren't for this first human emperor who came from the Demon Prison, he wouldn't have been so unlucky.
After examining his injuries and discovering that he could only barely exert the strength of the early stage of the Void Refinement realm, he became even more troubled. Wang Yu was no small fry.
He may possess an opportunity that transcends the standards of the Ice Prison Realm.
Otherwise, it's impossible to explain how he cultivated such combat prowess.
Out of caution, he reluctantly took a sixth-grade top-quality Life Creation Pill, and his body quickly returned to normal, although the power of the Heavenly Light of Annihilation was still causing trouble within him.
However, it can also unleash the power of the fourth level of the Void Refinement stage.
That's enough to deal with Wang Yu!
…………
…………
at the same time.
Crimson Iris Territory, Blood Abyss Secret Realm.
After the Life Demon swallowed the Blood Demon's shell, its physical body began to multiply wildly. Unlike the energy structure of the Dharma Form, it was a true giant's body, standing ten thousand feet tall.
No matter how disgusting or terrifying its appearance may be.
However, it truly possessed power far exceeding that of the Nascent Soul realm, and the Blood Demon's body transformed into a blood-red rhombus-shaped crystal embedded in the chest of its flesh and blood avatar.
When the difference in their cultivation levels is not significant, even a Life Demon cannot instantly digest the Blood Demon's body. It can only absorb the Blood Demon's power through a process of half-inlaying and half-fusion, thereby surpassing the limit of the Nascent Soul stage.
To briefly possess power above the rules.
The method is very similar to the logic of Lian Tian.
But this is something only ancient demons can do. Their power is inherently stronger than chaos, and their brief transcendence to circumvent the rules is not entirely without its chances.
Meanwhile, the Blood Demon's attendant, the master of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect, a Nascent Soul cultivator who calls himself the Blood Demon Palace Master, is standing to the side with two Nascent Soul early-stage sword cultivators, Fu Ling and Miao Zhen, who have also been twisted and corrupted.
The flesh and blood manifestation of the ancient demon of life did not hesitate at all.
He then reached out and absorbed the three into his body, essentially devouring and extracting them. In just a short moment, the flesh giant's arm transformed into two giant flesh swords.
A sea of blood surged wildly into his body, forming a crystal-like crimson armor, and his calm gaze looked towards the heavens.
There... a streak of purple light was hurtling towards them at high speed.
"You fiend, how dare you act so presumptuously!"
Boom—
With a loud bang, the entire Blood Abyss Secret Realm shattered. The flesh-and-blood giant and the Void Daoist emerged from the spatial turbulence, and the Void Sword Qi collided with the flesh-and-blood giant sword.
It is constantly destroying the surrounding environment.
The aftershocks of a battle between powerful individuals can be described as the most devastating disaster in the world. In less than three rounds, the entire Blood Abyss Continent was stripped of its scalp.
The nearby gate of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect collapsed with a deafening roar.
What kind of strange situation is this, what kind of protective formation is this?
It has absolutely no meaning.
Everything is being destroyed.
The Taoist Kongkong's expression was slightly solemn. He did not want to be like those predecessors in the Taoist lineage, refining the spirit of heaven and earth to suppress the ancient demon.
While this method can protect global stability, it also puts the individual in absolute danger.
This time... even if it means fighting until the heavens and earth collapse, he will use his strength to subdue his opponent.
The restrictions imposed on the ancient demons by the immortal rules were the key to his victory.
Take a deep breath.
The Void Sword multiplied into ten thousand, forming three sword wheels that distorted the surrounding space as they spun at high speed, seemingly drawing more spatial power from it.
All of it was transformed into the essence of the sword wheel.
Slash down at the flesh and blood giant!
The full-force attack of the Dao Integration cultivator caused the flesh giant to disintegrate, with distorted flesh scattering haphazardly, a torrential rain of blood, and a twisted and distorted demonic life force also dissipating.
This enraged the Ancient Demon of Life.
The body, which had been shaved into a human pig shape, sprouted countless slender female arms, and mysterious and eerie demonic seals appeared.
The Taoist Kongkong's expression froze.
He felt his body was rebelling, a new consciousness brewing within his flesh and blood, every piece of flesh and blood resisting him, its master.
"What a bizarre ability..."
"Mysterious Sword Heart Technique, Suppress!"
The rustling sounds in his mind faded, and the strange movements in his body began to subside. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Ancient Demon of Life restored the integrity of his flesh and blood form.
Its ultra-fast regeneration ability is like a piece of flesh that can never be cut off, and it even grows more deformed flesh, forcibly enveloping the three sword wheels.
Intending to devour the opponent's spiritual treasure.
"idiot."
As the Daoist Kongkong changed his sword technique, a spatial vortex suddenly opened behind him, from which a vast amount of world power surged forth to empower him. This was one of the mysteries of the Cave Heaven.
In this state, the cultivator does not rely on the outside world.
Its magical power is virtually limitless.
They can unleash even more powerful supernatural abilities without any scruples.
"Void Sword Manual - World of Swords!"
An invisible ripple enveloped the demon, and in its perception, everything in the world seemed to have turned into sharp blades, constantly radiating malice towards it.
It violently and wantonly cut into its body.
Like a skilled butcher dissecting an ox, in the blink of an eye, only the skeleton remained, while the sword-like blades formed from the air continued to drill into its joints, attempting to completely dismember it.
At the same time, a large, pitch-black seal appeared in the sky.
It was indeed the Seal of the King of Prisons.
This is a treasure symbolizing authority personally crafted by an immortal. It allows the holder to circumvent the restrictions of the immortal's rules and also to mobilize more power of the rules to suppress the ancient demon.
It can be considered a kind of exclusive artifact of the Ice Prison Realm.
The demon was unwilling to accept his fate.
With a roar to the sky, it actually split its skeletal body, and endless blood gushed out from its bones, quickly shielding it from the divine light of the Prison King Seal.
The Taoist priest frowned deeply.
"The Blood Sea Obscuring the Sky Spell? The Blood Demon's divine power..."
Before he could come up with a solution...
A demonic monument suddenly rose up in the sea of blood.
The primordial demonic runes engraved on it are the origin of the demon race's cultivation. This move... is called the [Ancient Demon Suppressing Heaven Stele]!
He was once famous throughout the myriad realms on the battlefield between humans and demons.
There is only one effect.
Reduce someone's cultivation level!
As the Demon Stele stood tall, Daoist Kongkong felt his cultivation level rapidly decline, quickly falling from the early stage of Dao Integration to the peak of Void Refinement. If the opponent were at his peak, this divine power would have been enough to reduce him to a mortal.
This can't go on any longer.
A thought crossed my mind.
"Prison King's Seal - Suppress Demons!"
Suddenly, the celestial light emanating from the seal converged into a beam, focusing its light on the demonic stele. A hissing sound rang out, like a red-hot iron falling into icy water.
The moment the demonic monument was suppressed by the celestial light.
A beam of blood-red light suddenly shot out from the sea of blood.
Blood Demon God-Slaying Needle!
Needle-based supernatural powers and magical treasures are recognized in the cultivation world as the most difficult type of methods to master, and their power is naturally among the best of all methods.
It is especially effective for surprise attacks.
Realizing it couldn't defeat the newborn consciousness of the demon head-on, it quickly decided to use its superhuman regenerative abilities to wage a war of attrition.
In fact, it doesn't matter whether it's a life demon or a blood demon.
They were all renowned immortal demons of the demon race, indestructible and quick to recover. The ancient demons, who were already skilled in both arts, achieved near-perfect immortality after merging into one.
Ambushed by the Blood Demon Needle, Daoist Kongkong let out a miserable cry.
A bloody hole appeared on his shoulder, from which a chilling demonic aura flowed, constantly eroding his physical body, making him appear quite seriously injured.
Beneath the sea of blood, the living demon murmured.
"To feign weakness?"
The nascent consciousness is rapidly growing amidst the fierce battle, and it easily sees through the opponent's tricks.
"Hmph, this is a perfect opportunity to turn the tables on them."
at the same time.
While the battle raged on, Wang Yu had already returned to Golden Toad City, having just finished telling Yan Ling about the racial memories of the Phoenix Clan.
Whether or not she chooses to actively join the Wutong community is entirely up to her.
immediately.
He then began his breakthrough cultivation.
Give him a few days, and he'll reach the fifth level of the Nascent Soul realm in no time!
