Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Emperor Zhou’s pupils shrank. The Great Sage widened his eyes in surprise before revealing a look of helplessness. This world was so splendid and amazing. Perhaps they were nothing but little worms swaying back in forth in a pond. To not be able to realize the splendor of the world with their own eyes, this was truly the greatest regret of their lives.

The Buddhist Nation sovereign roared out, “Everyone, Immortal Origin has already appeared! I will fuse into the forehead and the Nether Domain Master will enter the left arm. The three of you may choose your own spots.

“I will go last. The rest of you enter first!”

The Nether Domain Master was the first to fly up. He entered Immortal Origin’s left arm.

Emperor Zhou entered the right arm.

Emperor Ying and the Great Sage each entered a leg.

The Buddhist Nation Sovereign looked at the strength of darkness that was being broken apart. Then, he took a step forward and entered Immortal Origin’s forehead.

Shua –

The eyes of the middle-aged daoist opened up, revealing a reflection of the world around…it was like he controlled the entire world in his hands, capable of extinguishing all with a single thought.

Bang –

The darkness shattered and tore apart, rapidly fading away in space. When Qin Yu stepped out and he saw the phantom of the daoist figure, his pupils shrank and his mind shook. This was the same as someone meeting their natural enemy. Fear and dread surged out from the depths of his heart, completely beyond his control.

Immortal Origin!

He was Immortal Origin!

Without any reason, this thought leapt into his mind. Then, like a hot iron, it was branded there forever. Even after thousands of years passed, he wouldn’t forget about this!

Inside the daoist phantom, one could see the Buddhist Nation Sovereign and the others sitting cross-legged. They were the medium used to channel Immortal Origin’s power.

With the strength of a supreme being of the world, even five of them gathered together were only just able to activate Immortal Origin’s strength. One could imagine how terrifying its might was.

“Demon Sovereign, now that you have entered my Immortal Sect, today is the day you die.”

This voice thundered into Qin Yu’s consciousness. It was like a formidable outside impact smashing into him.

Even though Qin Yu had completed the substantialization of his will, he still felt a deep sense of fear. He knew that by relying on his strength alone, it was impossible for him to resist the strength of Immortal Origin.

No wonder the Buddhist Nation Sovereign had used every means at his disposal to make him enter the Immortal Sect. He actually had full confidence in killing him here.

Qin Yu bit down hard on his tongue and lifted his arm. His five fingers spread out and a pitch black bead appeared.

Within Immortal Origin, the Buddhist Nation Sovereign who controlled everything lifted his lips in a taunting smile. “You still haven’t lost heart after seeing the strength of Immortal Origin?

“Let’s bring this to an end!”

The middle-aged daoist phantom raised a hand and pointed forwards.

In the left arm, the Nether Domain Master opened his eyes, his gaze sharp and cold.

Death!

Kacha –

There was a light sound that shouldn’t have been heard in the current chaos. When this middle-aged daoist phantom attacked, its might was simply far too terrifying. Although the attack was still gathering and hadn’t yet been released, the entire world seemed to be suppressed. All fluctuations were calmed and space and time seemed to fall still.

Thus, even though this sound was so minor, it was highlighted and became especially clear.

No one could have imagined that this common-looking black bead would erupt with a terrifying power after it was shattered – this was because it originated from the outside world, from an object that was once the supreme treasure of a powerful family.

It was the life-maintaining object that Undying had left behind for Qin Yu.

This was the greatest card in Qin Yu’s hand. It could even be said that it was able to rescue him from any danger, no matter how extreme it was.

But today, Qin Yu had shattered it without hesitation…this was because the Immortal Sect needed to be destroyed. Everyone that harmed Ning Ling needed to be punished.

Spectral Disaster arrived. Although it was only a projection, in terms of power alone, it could compare with the true body’s all out strike.

This was because this bead had a part of Spectral Disaster’s source strength sealed inside!

The skies suddenly darkened and a yin chill filled the world. Corpses broke free from the ground, sad and despairing cries coming from their mouths.

Their numbers were incalculable. In the blink of an eye, the entire Immortal Sect world turned into a land of the dead!

Bang –

Bang –

The ground shattered again and again as 12 metal giants rose up. Each one seemed to lift the heavens, each containing a dreadful aura that suppressed all sides.

In an instant, without Qin Yu needing to do anything, the 12 metal giants all locked their eyes onto the middle-aged daoist phantom. They opened their mouths and roared.

An unimaginable imprisoning strength arrived, as if thousands of mountains were falling down together. The middle-aged daoist phantom was instantly suppressed. Then, the 12 metal giants hurtled forward with a speed that was completely incongruous with their appearance. Their 24 hands grabbed onto the middle-aged daoist phantom and ruthlessly tore outwards!

…

Infinitely far away in the vast endlessness of space, there was a giant nebula. Hundreds of stars swirled within like pearls in the deep sea, shining brightly.

At the center of this nebula there was a super planet that was at least three times larger than an ordinary one. Its surface was covered with lakes and mountains, forests and rivers. White clouds floated about, making it seem like a scene from a picture.

Without warning, fluctuations appeared and rapidly spread outwards. Like a meteor crashing into the sea, it set off a vast tsunami.

The mountains were crushed like foam. The quietly floating white clouds were instantly wiped away.

The clouds cleared and a palace was revealed atop a summit. Beneath the sunlight, it shimmered with the colors of a rainbow.

In the depths of a hall, a cultivating daoist opened his eyes. Lightning flashed in his pupils. Then, endless lightning tore through the skies of the nebula.

“Who is it? Who dares to touch my primordial spirit fragment! They must die!”

…

The moon hung high above, sprinkling down a cold l.u.s.ter. In a giant city below, in a teahouse near a road, Undying was sitting alone. He wore black robes as he peacefully sipped a cup of tea. But at this time, lightning flashed in his cup.

Paka –

Paka –

Lightning shrouded him. Within this lightning, one could faintly see a vast nebula. Undying’s complexion changed and he stood up. Darkness erupted from his body, rapidly diffusing outward and instantly covering the entire city.

Rumble rumble –

A heaven-shaking rumble erupted. The countless lives in the city shivered. As they looked at the explosions occurring in the darkness, their faces drained of blood.

“My little master, you really gave me a pleasant surprise…” He wryly muttered to himself. The darkness quickly gathered and Undying’s figure vanished. At the location where he had been sitting, the tea set, chair, and table all vanished, as if it was a point in space that had been erased.

…

Immortal Sect world.

The eyes of the daoist phantom that had been grabbed by the 12 metal giants suddenly shined. At this point, it gave off an even more terrifying feeling…as if it were a great beast that had regained consciousness!

Kacha –

Kacha –

The surrounding space disintegrated!

The five figures sitting inside the daoist phantom all cried out pitifully as their flesh and blood started to wither away. At the same time, the daoist phantom became increasingly realistic. It seemed as if it wanted to suck the flesh and blood of these five people dry to turn its illusory form into reality.

Roar –

Roar –

Flames ignited in the eyes of the 12 metal giants. The source strength of Spectral Disaster was thoroughly detonated.

Cracks immediately appeared over the surface of the daoist phantom. Dark red water unexpectedly flowed out from between these cracks.

The cries of the five inside became even more pitiful. It was like they were the ones that would be turned into shreds.

The projection of Spectral Disaster started to collapse. All of its strength was sucked out and gathered into the bodies of the 12 metal giants, allowing them to become incarnations of the most horrifying killing machines in the world.

Beneath their hands, the daoist phantom was ripped apart. Blood drenched the skies red and thundered resounded. Soon, an endless downpour of rain followed.

This rainwater was red in color and as thick as blood. Winds howled throughout the world, whimpering and sobbing, as if crying in grief.

Today, a supreme being of the world had perished!

Emperor Ying opened his eyes, all of the light and l.u.s.ter there gone. There was a pained and stunned expression on his face.

Until death finally came for him, he never once imagined he would end up in this situation.

But death was death; it wasn’t merciful towards anyone. When one was swallowed up by death, everything became meaningless.

The work and efforts of an emperor, the ambitions to scheme against the world, the countless years of waiting and scheming for revenge, the laborious preparations….from this point on, none of those things held significance anymore.

Unexpectedly, the originally severely wounded Nether Domain Master was in the best condition.

Of course, this best condition was only relatively speaking in comparison to the miserable states of the Buddhist Nation Sovereign and Emperor Zhou. They were soaked in blood and withered to the bone.

Dark fluctuations erupted, instantly wrapping around the Buddhist Nation Sovereign and Emperor Zhou. The two of them yelled out in shocked anger, “Nether Domain Master, what are you doing!?”

The darkness didn’t reply, only becoming increasingly deep. Fear filled the voices of the Buddhist Nation Sovereign and Emperor Zhou. Loud thundering rumbles fiercely spread out, but their resistance was clearly useless. Soon, everything quieted down.

Qin Yu furrowed his eyebrows. Looking at the darkness in front of him, small sounds began to spread out…it was like…the sound of chewing and smacking lips.

Beyond his control, a cold chill rose up from his heart and spread through his entire body, leaving his scalp tingling.

At this time, the darkness rapidly disappeared. Or to be more exact, it submerged into a figure…it had a head, torso, two arms and two legs, and its shape seemed similar to that of a human. But that was where the similarities ended.

Dark purple scales, thick and dense, covered this figure like layered fish scales everywhere the eyes could see.

Its eyes were elongated and perilously thin, as if they were slits cut open with a knife. There were no eyeballs there – only an unfathomably deep darkness, like the endless abyss, capable of swallowing everything. Its hands and feet ended in long claws that flashed with a metallic sheen.

Two short pointed horns jutted out from both sides of its forehead. They were clear and transparent, as if polished from red jade. A slender tail with a triangular point slowly swung out behind it.

Abyssal devil!

With just one glance, Qin Yu recognized that this was the terrifying race that had landed on the Land of Divinity and Demons millions upon millions of years ago and created dreadful catastrophes.

In the past, if it wasn’t for the rising Zhou Empire gathering all the strengths in the Land of Divinity and Demons and fighting back, then this world would have been seized by the abyssal devils and all living creatures degenerated into their food.

But this terrifying race had clearly been killed off…who could have imagined that the Nether Domain Master, one of the three heads of the solemn Immortal Sect, was actually the disguise of a devil.

But this was clearly a fact.

The clothes of the Buddhist Nation Sovereign and Emperor Zhou had been ripped into pieces. They were drenched with blood as they came falling down from the skies.

The two of them had vanished from the world. There wasn’t a need to talk about what their fates were.

“Your Majesty Demon Sovereign is truly strong to be able to grasp such unexpectedly terrifying strength. I, the Devil Overlord Babasa, would like to express my most sincere respect towards you.”

The devil slightly bowed. His voice was deep and grating, like iron striking stone. When it spread out it shook the void and carried with it the strength to frighten the heart.

“But unfortunately, this isn’t a strength that belongs to Your Majesty to begin with. After using it once, it will forever vanish from the world.”

Qin Yu’s eyes were ice cold. He slowly said, “I can indeed only erupt with this strike once. But, Immortal Origin has been destroyed. To deal with a mere devil like you, my strength is more than enough.”

The Nether Domain Master…no, the Devil Overlord Bababa smiled. “Your Majesty’s confidence is inspiring. But, you underestimate the power of a Devil Overlord.

“Then, I ask Your Majesty to enter my stomach and become a part of me!”

Shua –

A series of afterimages were created. Babasa didn’t seem to have moved, but his sharp blade-like claws were already cutting down. Space was torn open, like a scratch in white snow. But what this represented was the world being torn – this was the world truly being broken. All of the rule lines were thoroughly severed and they began to rapidly self-destruct from both sides, forever disappearing from the world.

From this point on, these destroyed world rules would not be able to be restored. It was an injury to the world and also the most terrifying aspect of the devil race. This was because they themselves didn’t belong to this world and possessed the power of absolute destruction.
