Daxuan Wusheng: Start by practicing and adding points

Chapter 498: The True Devil in the Divine Realm
Desolate, dead silent, and dark.

It is not accurate to say that this place is like a dead zone, because the chaos here also includes life and death. Vitality and death are intertwined here, but strangely, they do not form any conflict. Instead, they transform into each other in an incredible situation.

The extreme of life is death, and the extreme of death is life.

Here, it's not just life and death, but almost everything in the world can be seen in endless miniature. Yin and Yang rotate here, Qian Heaven and Kun Earth are suspended upside down here, the visible and the invisible meet here, and everything seems to be indistinguishable from each other.

The heaven and earth are boundless, formless and intangible, and creation creates everything. This symbolizes the way of all opposites, including the 'Way of Creation', one of the endless universe's original ways of creation and destruction, and is on par with the Way of the Void that carries everything and the Way of Time that witnesses everything.

And in that dim and formless darkness,

Then I saw a huge pitch-black formation condensed here. This formation seemed to be imprinted in the void, and was created with rolling demonic energy as its essence. In the center of the formation was a huge vortex. From the inside of the vortex came an ancient, desolate, mottled and vicissitudes of life atmosphere. That atmosphere was completely different from the world of Daxuan, as if it was connected to some terrible realm!

Just a glance into the vortex can shock and distract a person, causing him or her to fall into endless changes.

now.

In front of this huge void formation that stretches for thousands of feet.

But there were a large number of pitch-black demon shadows standing there, there were more than twenty of them, most of them exuded a strange and changeable aura, and it was obvious that all of them were demons who had reached the ninth level!

If it were placed in the ancient times, the appearance of so many demons would not be a big deal. Demons were rampant in the world at that time, and humans were just creatures surviving in the cracks. A ninth-order demon was just equivalent to a human warrior in the Blood Exchange Realm today. At most, he was slightly stronger because of his many means and insidiousness, and seemed quite dangerous, but not much stronger.

But now.

At a time when the ancient demons had long since withdrawn from the human stage and disappeared in the long river of history, the fact that more than twenty ninth-level demons gathered in one place was indeed a terrifying situation.

If so many demons attack together, it will be enough to cause the entire eleven states of Hanbei to fall, and in an instant, a corner of the Daxuan world will be plunged into an unprecedented demonic disaster!
but.

Nowadays, there are so many demons, but they have never left the underground of Sand County and have never caused unrest in the world. Even the half-real and half-virtual black shadows they appear in seem to show a respectful emotion.

In front of these twenty-odd ninth-order demons, stood three beings with more powerful auras and more condensed figures. The black air surrounding them almost condensed into substance, transforming into an appearance like a human body, but without faces or bodies. They looked like black cloaks floating in the air, deep and simple.

Even if a master at the level of marrow cleansing master stood here and looked at them, he would be shocked!

Level ten!

This is a tenth-order peerless demon that only exists in the ancient history recorded in Daxuan. It is said to be the most terrifying existence in the world, even more terrifying than the tenth-order monsters. They are invisible and formless, and can change reality and illusion. They come and go without a trace, and their methods can directly attack people's hearts and souls, making it difficult to guard against. Unless it is an existence of the same level, or has a strong heart and soul, otherwise, just looking at them for one more moment may cause the heart and soul to collapse directly and escape into the devil's way.

"Chi, we can't let that person get close to this place. You go and fend them off first."

One of the tenth-level demons had demonic energy surging around him, as if he was communicating with another tenth-level demon.

"This person is extremely powerful, with no flaws in his physique or soul. He has at least reached the fourth level of the lower god. I cannot hold him back for long on my own. Wu, you and I will go together."

The tenth-rank demon named Chi also had demonic energy surging all over his body at this time. He did not refuse, but after a brief silence, he said to the other demon Wu.

"it is good."

Wu did not say much, and the demonic energy on his body only slightly rippled.

Chi's body shook, and rolling demonic energy surged, surrounding his body. Then his body was thrown upwards, and at the same time, he cast a gaze towards the tenth-level demon who spoke first:

"Cang! Wu and I may not be able to stop that person. You need to contact the ancestral realm. Otherwise, if he kills us here, our arrangements made over the years will be destroyed, and it will also affect the ancestral realm's plan."

"Go ahead. I know the importance of this."

The tenth-rank demon named 'Cang' responded indifferently.

And just after he responded, Chi and Wu, two tenth-rank demons, transformed into a ball of pitch-black demonic cloud one after another, disappeared into the air in an instant, speeding upwards, and soon sank into the earth veins above and disappeared.

Cang was still standing in the center of the huge and strange formation, surrounded by many ninth-level demons. A white face silently appeared on its dark body. The face was so strange that it could not be described in words, as if it was just a thin white mask.

His face was looking into the distance at the direction where the two demons Chi and Wu were leaving, and he seemed to have an expression similar to that of a human's "frown".

How could such a powerful creature suddenly appear in this world?

Cang was very confused.

It has been sleeping here since a great war in ancient times. It is unknown how many years it has been sleeping. One day, it received a call from the ancestral world and finally woke up. It immediately tried to explore this world.

The result was just a simple investigation, which was enough to surprise him.

Unlike the situation in ancient times, those who rule the world now are no longer those innately powerful creatures or those peerless celestial demons, but the human race which was very weak in this world in ancient times. It is unknown when these humans started to gradually find a way to become stronger, which they call martial arts, and they developed it step by step until they grew to the level they are today.

Moreover, the human race that rules this world today is even more powerful than those innately powerful demon races in ancient times!
Even with its means, if it were to be exposed rashly and attacked by the entire world, it would be unable to resist and would be forced to hide from place to place, or even be completely destroyed here!
Under such circumstances, Cang became more cautious in his actions and did not dare to act rashly. After tentatively exploring the world for several years, it found Chi and Wu who had awakened one after another, both of whom survived the ancient war.

But even if the three ancient demons gathered together, they would still be very serious about the situation in this world. The most important thing is that the situation in this world is different from that in ancient times. In ancient times, the laws of this world were not yet perfect, and the suppression on them was not strong, but now this world, the suppression on them is quite strong!

It was still okay in the already chaotic abyss. If they were on the ground, they would be suppressed by heaven and earth, and they might not be able to deal with a so-called celestial being in a one-on-one fight.

Such a situation also made them dare not act rashly. After making a decision, they came to the most remote Sand County Abyss to lurk and gather in the deepest part, slowly accumulating strength and trying to communicate with the ancestral realm.

They are not creatures from this world, but creatures from other realms that invaded this world countless years ago when the laws of heaven and earth in this world were still imperfect.

They originally wanted to conquer this world and turn it into a lower realm of their ancestral realm. However, the innate creatures in this world were too powerful, and the celestial demons were no ordinary people. In addition, the ancestral realm at that time happened to be involved in a war that shook the Void Sea. The entire ancestral realm was almost severely damaged, so that those "true demons" who stepped into the realm of gods had no time to pay attention to the situation on their side, so they were temporarily forgotten.

So much so that after a great war in ancient times, they and the innate creatures and ancient celestial demons of this world were all defeated, and most of the top celestial demons were destroyed. Beings like it, Chi, and Wu were also forced to hide in the depths of the earth and sleep.

Although they have never entered the realm of gods, because they are not creatures of this world, this world naturally cannot restrain them. They are not subject to restrictions such as 'lifespan' and wake up one by one after countless years.

"Is this world responsible?"

Cang raised his head and looked upwards, his gaze penetrating the deep abyss, as if he was looking directly at the sky.

In order to ensure safety and avoid being noticed by the creatures of this world, they seldom go to the ground to explore. Usually, every thirty or forty years, it or Chi or Wu will take action personally to capture a few masters who explore the abyss of the earth, or beings in the blood exchange realm, invade their souls, and explore some changes in the world above ground from their memories.

It had only been thirty or forty years since they last attacked. How could a being with a strength of at least the fourth level of God suddenly appear in this world? !
It's strange!

You know, even in the ancient times, when humans were still weak creatures like ants in this world, there were "innate creatures" born at the beginning of the world in this world. They were born with the will of heaven and earth and were extremely powerful. Among them, only a few could reach the fourth level under the gods. The vast majority of the innate creatures were only about the third level under the gods, and were basically slaughtered by them.

Of course, the price paid for that battle was also extremely high. There were beings that were much stronger than them, but they were also destroyed in the counterattack of those innate creatures. In the end, only the three of them survived.

And what about Chen Mu who had rushed into the abyss at this time?

Judging from the way he attacks, his strength is at least the fourth level below a god, and he may even have reached the peak among those fourth level below a god. Even among those innate creatures born in the ancient times of this world, he is one of the top existences!

It is not surprising that one world gives birth to later creatures and surpasses the innate creatures. After all, no matter which world it is, it will continue to develop and change with the passage of time, and will take different paths until it leads to the only divine realm.

But the martial arts practiced by the creatures in this world clearly cannot reach that level!
At least as far as it understood, it should be impossible for a being of Chen Mu's level to be born!
Although its understanding of the world is limited to a few decades ago, a few decades is just a short hibernation for it. How could everything suddenly turn upside down?

A look of caution appeared on the pale face that Cang Huan transformed into, and suddenly the demonic energy on his body rolled, and he suddenly pounced forward, pouring a ball of surging demonic energy into the formation below.

"Sacrifice formation!"

Its dull sound echoed in the formation.

At its command, more than twenty ninth-tier demons transformed into figures surrounded by demonic energy, and made worship gestures towards the center of the formation from all directions. At the same time, vast streams of demonic energy accompanied their movements, surging from all directions and pouring into the huge formation.

Under Cang's pale face, there seemed to be a faint light flashing in his dark and deep pupils.

The laws of nature in this world have been disrupted a lot by the 'Great Array of Creation', and the opportunity is very close. They must prepare for the response from the ancestral realm, and there must be no mistakes before that!

Chen Mu, this sudden appearance, is very strange no matter how you look at it. Perhaps it is the work of the will of this world. In any case, even if it is to "borrow" strength from the ancestral world, Chen Mu must be wiped out here!

hum! ! !
The rolling demonic energy was so powerful that it caused the formation that stretched for thousands of feet and was engraved in the void to glow with faint light.

Amid the flickering of the dim light, the grey vortex in the center of the formation finally began to move. A ripple began to form, and a terrifying aura seemed to be spreading from it.

boom!
The world changes color!

Just a trace of infiltration of Qi caused the will of Heaven and Earth in this world to quietly descend. The will of Heaven and Earth, which was supposed to be high above and follow the ruthless laws of Heaven, now seemed to express an extremely angry will, rejecting the infiltration of that trace of Qi!
Although there was only a wisp of energy that tried to penetrate, it was completely different from the energy from the demons such as Cang and Chi. Not only did it not have any aura of chaos and madness, but it was filled with a sense of freedom and sacredness, as if wherever it was, there was great freedom!
"..."

The wisp of energy that tried to penetrate, after being blocked by the will of heaven and earth, paused only slightly, and did not continue to try to cross the vortex, but was quietly retracted.

After a brief silence,

A majestic voice came from the vortex.

"What's the matter?"

Cang, who had been standing in front of the vortex, had completely transformed into a figure the moment this wisp of energy emerged, and showed a respectful expression. It was not until he took the initiative to ask a question that he quickly responded: "Your Majesty, there is a little trouble..."

Cang passed the situation over as quickly as possible.

On the other side of the vortex, the aura was briefly silent, and then a deep voice said:
"The opportunity has not yet arrived, and my true body cannot forcibly cross the void. This time you can only resist on your own. However, the great formation of good fortune you have set up is very important and cannot be lost. If the situation is unfavorable and you reach a critical moment, I will lend you a helping hand."

"Thank you for your help, Your Excellency."

When Cang heard this, he immediately responded respectfully. He suddenly felt very confident and all his worries disappeared.

It didn't know how strong Chen Mu was, or how far he had gone on the road to the Divine Realm, but the one on the other side of the vortex was a true demon from the ancestral realm, a supreme being who had truly ascended to the Divine Realm!

A true demon from the ancestral world is looking at this place from afar!
