“Boom—!”
The Chaos Sealing Realm Grand Formation burst open with a roar, as if a world-destroying Vicious Beast, imprisoned for billions of eons, had broken free from its shackles!
An indescribable, viscous, living oil-like, vast torrent of will, emanating endless Chaos and pure malice, gushed forth frantically and hysterically through the cracked Sealing Boundary.
This torrent presented a nauseating, constantly shifting, grayish-white color. The Void Realm emitted a dying groan, corroded with spiderweb-like, spreading, eerie white cracks. Even light was greedily sucked in and twisted by it, and space itself seemed to be smeared with a layer of filthy grease.
A whispering shriek, powerful enough to erode the Dao Heart and disintegrate the True Spirit, directly exploded in the deepest part of every strong practitioner's Sea of Consciousness, like the curses of billions of resentful souls and the roar of a mad Origin, attempting to contaminate, assimilate, and disintegrate their Foundation that they had upheld for ten thousand years!
This was precisely the Will of the Dao of Deceit, originating from beyond that cage, which had completely contaminated and replaced the original Origin of the Demon Abyss!
“Chaos Treasure Mansion, Myriad Dao Furnace, Refine!”
Li Mu’s eyes burst forth with Divine Might, like two burning Chaos stars! His thoughts were like lightning, and his hands rapidly formed Seals to guide it.
The Chaos Treasure Mansion suddenly erupted with an unprecedented terrifying suction force. Its simple and unadorned outline seemed to transform into an ultimate black hole, as the Divine Might of the nine Laws rotated frantically within its core, weaving into a gigantic Chaos net covering all the heavens and myriad realms, precisely shrouding the gushing grayish-white torrent!
“Sizzle!”
Like a red-hot iron plunged into ice, an ear-piercing sound of annihilation, accompanied by unimaginable Law collisions and tremors, swept across all directions! The torrent of the Dao of Deceit that poured into the Chaos Treasure Mansion was instantly torn, decomposed, and annihilated by the nine supreme Dao powers!
The Law of Nothingness, like an invisible giant mouth, directly “erased” large portions of the Will of the Dao of Deceit, returning their very existence to nothingness.
The Law of Annihilation diffused a deathly gray, freezing its activity, making the surging torrent seem to fall into a time quagmire, its flow rate drastically reduced.
The Law of Spirit Devour transformed into greedy purple roots, deeply embedding themselves into the core of the filthy torrent, frantically sucking and transforming the abyssal Origin filth contained within, feeding back into itself, stabilizing the Treasure Mansion and the Grand Formation.
The Law of star source radiated an undying brilliance, reinforcing the Treasure Mansion’s barrier, resisting the torrent’s frantic erosion and assimilation.
The Law of Space stabilized all directions, confining the terrifying energy ripples generated by the refinement to a controllable range.
The other Laws each displayed their Divine Ability: the Life Force of Creation stubbornly repaired the parts of the Treasure Mansion that were instantly corroded; the ripples of Time reversed localized damage; the Chaos Origin of the Chaos Treasure Mansion suppressed the frantic impact of the torrent of the Dao of Deceit…
The Chaos Treasure Mansion trembled violently, its surface light flickering erratically, like a lone boat battling against raging waves, yet it remained as steady as a rock, firmly blocking the Demon Abyss Channel, completely suppressing it, and preventing the true descent of the Will of the Dao of Deceit!
The Chaos Treasure Mansion, using itself as a cauldron and the nine Laws as Divine Fire, was carrying out an unprecedented “refinement”!
A massive amount of the power of the Will of the Dao of Deceit was forcibly swallowed, purified, and transformed into a primordial energy, still undifferentiated, which the Treasure Mansion greedily absorbed and stored, becoming part of its own evolution and Li Mu’s power!
However, the vastness of the Will of the Dao of Deceit far exceeded imagination. No matter how strong the Chaos Treasure Mansion was, it could not instantly devour this filthy torrent accumulated over countless eons!
Li Mu’s strategy was originally “opening the floodgates to release the flood, with controllable refinement.” The torn Sealing Boundary cracks were like a breach in a dam, and there were always some “fish that slipped through the net”!
“Chichi!”
Streams of the power of the Dao of Deceit, condensed like substance and imbued with extreme distortion and mad will, like venomous tentacles possessing life, suddenly drilled out from the gaps in the Chaos Treasure Mansion’s giant net and from the weak points caused by the collision and agitation of the Laws!
Once they left the torrent of the Will of the Dao of Deceit, they displayed astonishing sentience and strangeness. They escaped from the gaps of the Chaos Treasure Mansion and the Chaos Sealing Realm Grand Formation, like slippery loaches, penetrating the cracks, with a clear target—rushing towards the Star Domain outside the Chaos Sealing Realm Grand Formation’s barrier, that area protected by the strong practitioners present!
“They’re here!” Celestial Venerable Fentian roared, his World-Burning Dao Fire exploding around him, turning into a sea of fire sweeping through the Void Realm, instantly incinerating several tentacles of the Dao of Deceit that lunged at him into ethereal green smoke. But the shriek the tentacles emitted before their annihilation actually caused a prickling sensation in his Divine Soul.
Grand Profound Sword Revered’s eyes narrowed. The ancient sword in his embrace had not even fully left its scabbard; merely an extremely condensed, invisible Sword Intent slashed out, instantly severing the attacking streams of the Dao of Deceit inch by inch, dissipating them into nothingness.
However, the severed tentacle fragments left behind indelible, malicious, pitch-black sword marks in the Void Realm.
Mind Clarity Holy Monk’s palm-held lamp flame flared brightly, and clear Buddhist light surged out like a tide, forming a golden pure land.
The tentacles of the Dao of Deceit crashed into the Buddhist light, like ice and snow meeting the sun, emitting a “sizzling” sound of purification, twisting and struggling frantically, yet unable to advance an inch. The Holy Monk lowered his gaze, recited mantras, and the Buddhist light became increasingly stable.
More of the power of the Dao of Deceit, cunningly bypassed the Immortal Venerables and Buddhas who were directly intercepting them. As if possessing intelligence, they directly rushed towards several Demon Gods whose aura was weaker, or sought out subtle fluctuating nodes on the Grand Formation’s barrier caused by internal and external impacts!
“Hmph! Mere dregs dare to covet this Emperor!” Bone Emperor Demon God emitted a grating sound of bone friction, the ghostly fire in his eye sockets flared, and he grabbed with a giant white bone claw in mid-air, forcibly seizing several streams of the Dao of Deceit in his hand!
That filthy power frantically corroded his white bones, emitting a “sizzling” corrosive sound, but the Bone Emperor sneered, and the ghostly fire spread along his arm bones, actually refining and absorbing it in reverse, his aura becoming even more ferocious.
In the depths of Bone Emperor Demon God’s eyes, a trace of imperceptible grayish-white quietly flashed by.
Blood Hell Demon God, on the other hand, was even more frenzied. Facing the attacking power of the Dao of Deceit, the blood sea around him surged, and he actively devoured it!
Within the blood sea, countless resentful souls and malevolent spirits frantically tore at and merged with the Will of the Dao of Deceit, emitting a chilling, chaotic roar. Blood Hell’s aura became even more chaotic, violent, and filled with destructive desire.
Eternal Night Demon God’s dark Domain was like the deepest swamp. The power of the Dao of Deceit disappeared into it silently, like a stone sinking into the sea.
Star Dome Old Ancestor’s “Cosmic Star Lock” formation diagram glowed, firmly imprisoning and decomposing the approaching power of the Dao of Deceit. The Azure Emperor’s withered and thriving vitality integrated into the formation diagram, endowing it with powerful resilience and purifying power.
Profound Fiend Demon God’s ice and fire Devilish Qi surged, freezing and incinerating the attacking power of the Dao of Deceit, growling impatiently.
Everything seemed to be under control. The strong practitioners each displayed their Divine Ability, intercepting, annihilating, or imprisoning the escaping power of the Dao of Deceit.
However, Li Mu’s mind suddenly tensed! Through the close connection between the Chaos Treasure Mansion and the Sealing Boundary Grand Formation, he sensed that at the very core of the surging torrent of the Dao of Deceit, five long-dormant wills, tens of thousands of times more terrifying than these scattered powers of the Dao of Deceit, suddenly appeared like awakened ancient fierce demons.
They were illicitly crossing over at an incredible speed and in an astonishing manner—through the swirling gaps formed when the Chaos Treasure Mansion devoured the main torrent, and through the brief “gaps” created by the strong practitioners intercepting the scattered power!
They were like the most cunning parasites, clinging to the torrent of the Guidao, and at the moment they passed through the cracks in the Seal and were about to be swallowed by the Chaos Treasure Mansion, they suddenly detached from the main body, using the minuscule spatial ripples and Law fluctuations to complete an incredible “Golden Cicada Shedding Its Shell”!
“Fellow Daoists, be careful! The Five Guification Demon Gods have appeared!” Li Mu’s warning thought, like a thunderclap, instantly exploded in the hearts of all the powerful cultivators!
Almost at the same instant—
“Om—!”
A formless, intangible, yet seemingly mind-freezing and cognition-disintegrating terrifying fluctuation swept silently across the entire scene!
Mind Clarity Holy Monk, who bore the brunt, saw the flame of the heart lamp in his palm dim sharply, as if splashed with ink. For the first time, a hint of confusion and struggle appeared in his eternally calm and clear eyes!
This fluctuation ignored Buddhist light, Dao Fire, and Sword Qi, directly acting upon the True Spirit Origin!
The Guified Jueling Demon God transformed into a mass of ultimate malice, condensing “End of Spirituality” and “Annihilation of Wisdom”! Its arrival directly enveloped the battlefield in the terrifying Domain of “詭異寂滅” (Strange Annihilation)!
“Screech—!”
Immediately after, a shriek that pierced the Divine Soul and was filled with an extreme desire for destruction tore through the Void Realm! A terrifying figure, purely condensed from the Law of Destruction and shaped like a monstrous Guified White Vulture covering the sky, suddenly appeared!
The Guified White Vulture Demon God spread its wings, and countless feathers composed of destructive ripples flapped. Wherever it passed, space silently annihilated, and even the “Zhou Tian Star Lock” formation diagram laid out by Star Dome Old Ancestor violently shook, its light rapidly dimming! It emitted a pure, extreme destructive Guipower!
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
The Star Domain violently trembled, and a colossal being, composed of countless squirming, proliferating, constantly dividing, and reassembling flesh and bones, forcefully squeezed out of a crack opened by the power of the Guidao!
It had no fixed form, its entire body covered in strange white bloodstains, proliferating more twisted limbs or organs, emitting a nauseating, eternally indestructible life malice!
The Guified Eternal Demon God revealed its form, exuding defilement and twisted “immortality,” transforming into an unseeable column of flesh, with its Divine Might no longer present.
“Rip—!”
Space was torn like the weakest cloth by sharp claws, and a massive pincer, covered in dark, dull carapace and with edges shimmering with the cold light of the Law of Tearing, suddenly extended from another spatial rift! The extended part alone was large enough to crush stars!
Behind the pincer was an unfathomable strange white, and a pair of cold, greedy compound eyes containing the will of the Law that could shatter all matter! It possessed terrifying material destructive power that could tear apart all things!
The last figure, however, at the moment all the Demon Gods appeared, silently merged into the edge of Eternal Night Demon God’s dark Domain like a shadow.
It was not a physical entity, but more like a constantly shifting vortex, drawing in all negative emotions and death Qi from the battlefield. Greed, fear, anger, despair… all negative emotions became its nourishment, allowing it to silently grow stronger, its aura flickering between proximity and detachment from Eternal Night’s darkness, yet carrying an inherent defilement and madness. It was none other than the Guified Huangwu Demon God.
The five Guified Demon Gods, each with a different form but equally terrifying auras, filled with endless malice, instantly locked onto the core hub that was fully refining the Guidao torrent—the Chaos Treasure Mansion, and Li Mu, who was closely connected to the Chaos Treasure Mansion’s Qi and the Treasure Mansion!
As soon as the five great Guified Demon Gods descended, their killing intent solidified. Five distinct yet equally lethal Guidao powers, like five poisoned blades, tore through the Void Realm and fiercely stabbed towards Li Mu.
Jueling Demon God: The formless and intangible “Spiritual Void Fluctuation” spread silently. Mind Clarity Holy Monk, who bore the brunt, saw the flame of the heart lamp in his palm dim sharply, his Sea of Consciousness felt as if frozen, and his ancient Buddhist heart violently shook for the first time! The other powerful cultivators also felt a stinging pain in their Divine Souls and a slight tremor in their Dao Foundation.
White Vulture Demon God: Its wings furiously flapped, and billions of gray-white feathers condensed from the Law of Destruction transformed into a destructive storm that tore through everything, overwhelming Li Mu and the Treasure Mansion. Wherever it passed, space silently annihilated!
Eternal Demon God: The defiled flesh pillar let out an earth-shshattering roar, violently crashing into the core barrier of the Chaotic Boundary Sealing Formation! Each impact caused the barrier, composed of billions of runes, to violently vibrate, its light flickering. The twisted flesh and blood adhering to it proliferated and gnawed wildly, attempting to disintegrate the Treasure Mansion’s Foundation from the outside!
Demonic God Tian Ao: The terrifying giant pincer, tearing through space with the cold light of shattering all things, ignored distance and clamped with extreme precision towards the main body of the Chaos Treasure Mansion, which was refining the torrent! Before the pincer even arrived, the Law of Tearing it contained had already caused the space around the Treasure Mansion to collapse inch by inch!
Huangwu Demon God: It was like a maggot attached to bone, completely merged into Eternal Night Demon God’s dark Domain. A “spiritual sting,” condensing all the greed, madness, fear, and other negative emotions from the battlefield, silently pierced Li Mu’s unguarded back!
“Stop them!”
The powerful cultivators of the Extreme Dao roared furiously, their Dao Domains fully unleashed!
Celestial Venerable Fentian’s hair bristled, and his “World Burning Fire Domain” roared open! He transformed his body into a furnace, his fists wrapped in the might to incinerate all heavens. Two Heaven Burning Fist Seals fiercely met the destructive feather storm. The sea of fire and the destructive torrent violently collided, and the light of annihilation was dazzling!
Grand Profound Sword Revered’s ancient sword finally unsheathed! “Clang!” With a clear sword cry, man and sword became one. A gray Sword Qi that severed Karma and shattered all Laws tore through the sky, directly striking the terrifying Demonic God Tian Ao’s giant pincer that was clamping towards the Treasure Mansion! The Sword Intent and the Law of Tearing violently clashed!
Mind Clarity Holy Monk chanted true words, his heart lamp held high, “Heart Lamp Illuminates All!” The projection of the vast Buddhist kingdom forcefully suppressed, attempting to encompass the Guified Eternal Demon God that was crashing into the barrier. Buddhist chants surged like a tide, fiercely clashing with and purifying the defiled life malice.
Star Dome Old Ancestor and Azure Emperor joined forces: The “Zhou Tian Star Lock” formation diagram’s light surged, transforming into giant chains of dazzling starlight, entwined with the withered and flourishing vitality injected by the Azure Emperor, fiercely lashing at the defiled body of the Eternal Demon God, attempting to peel it off the barrier!
Bone Emperor Demon God, Blood Hell Demon God, and Xuan Sha struggled to intercept the Guidao tentacles that escaped from the cracks and tried to interfere with the battle, their own auras fluctuating under the influence of the Jueling Fluctuation.
Eternal Night Demon God’s dark Domain churned like boiling water, his starry eyes flickering with struggle as he desperately resisted Huangwu Demon God’s erosion and control.
The Chaos Treasure Mansion violently trembled under Li Mu’s full control. The divine light of the nine great Laws circulated wildly, on one hand, devouring and refining the surging Guidao torrent like a whale, and on the other hand, enduring the terrifying tearing force brought by Demonic God Tian Ao’s giant pincer. The light on its surface rapidly flickered!
Li Mu’s mind was stretched to its limit like a taut string! He not only had to maintain the refining of this Guidao torrent, which was enough to burst stars, and directly resist Jueling’s mental suppression, White Vulture’s destructive storm, and Demonic God Tian Ao’s physical tearing, but also had to divide his Divine Soul to resist Huangwu Demon God’s silent, fatal sting that directly targeted the Origin of the mind and gathered all the evil thoughts from the battlefield!
The five layers of ultimate killing moves, interlocking with each other, instantly pushed Li Mu to the brink of life and death! (End of this chapter)
