492. Subduing the Heart Demon Martial God
In the Ten Directions Realm, the ck Demon Heaven was notorious, predominantly ruled by the eminent Heart Demon Martial God. This vast territory, with its multitude of kingdoms, sprawled endlessly under their dominion.
Elevated above all were the Martial Gods, along with Martial Kings, Martial Sovereigns, and countlessmoners. Although these mortals found cultivation within their reach, the realm was still predominantly popted by the mundane.
The Ten Directions Realm, a world where strength reigned supreme, was founded by the Supreme of the Ten Directions, who had risen amidst ceaseless bloodshed. In this realm, the powerful were revered and owned everything, while the weak struggled to survive, subservient to the mighty. Thus, within the Ten Directions Realm, a stark disparity existed: the strong lived in opulence, while the weak groveled in hardship.
The ck Demon Heaven, the domain of the Heart Demon Martial God, was equally chaotic. Mighty beings constantly waged war and battled tirelessly. However, the formidable reputation of the Heart Demon Martial God deterred others from opposing them, inadvertently bringing a semnce of peace to their territories. Over time, their domain flourished, bing the most prosperous region in the ck Demon Heaven.
Yet, the Heart Demon Martial God faced their own turmoil. He was preupied with the impending seventh thunder tribtion. Desiring to cross this threshold, he stillcked the necessary World Origin. His ambition was not to be a Martial Ancestor but to survive nine thunder tribtions and reach the realm of a True Monarch, capable of shattering the void, content with a lifespan of a million yearspared to his current hundred-thousand-year span.
Therefore, Mi Tian constantly sought World Origin to fortify their physical bodies for the tribtion. However, acquiring World Origin was not without its challenges. Even for the Heart Demon Martial God, who had advantages over Deity Transformation and Martial Gods, obtaining World Origin from emerging minor worlds was a perilous endeavor. Being a Martial God meant that a single misstep could result in permanent death.
Therefore, the Heart Demon Martial God proceeded with extreme caution, often rallying numerous Martial Gods for each venture, to ensure their own safety. However, a considerable amount of time had passed without any news of new minor worlds.
"Could it be necessary to venture into the Fierce Crimson World?" the Heart Demon Martial God murmured softly, their brow furrowed in concern.
Reluctant to visit the Fierce Crimson World unless absolutely necessary, the Heart Demon Martial God was apprehensive. Although the Fierce Crimson World was a newly discovered minor world, it had already gained notorious fame. This was because it was no ordinary world; it was said to be exceedingly peculiar, governed by strange rules.
The most formidable aspect of this world was its curses - one misstep could lead to being cursed, a fate not even Martial Gods or Deity Transformation cultivators could withstand, potentially leading to their downfall. In fact, some Martial Gods had already perished there.
Yet, paradoxically, this danger attracted more Deity Transformation cultivators and Martial Gods. The stronger the minor world, the more abundant its World Origin.
If one could obtain this rich source, a Martial God''s physical body might directly withstand nine thunder tribtions, bypassing the gradual umtion of World Origin and the slow strengthening of the physical body.
Deity Transformation cultivators could also remain in a state of enlightenment, unraveling the mysteries of space and ascending to the True Monarch realm.
Under normal circumstances, the Heart Demon Martial God would not engage in such perilous contests over minor worlds. But time was not on their side. Having achieved the Martial Gods status over seventy thousand years ago, they only had a little over twenty thousand years left to live. There was no longer time to wait for a more suitable minor world topete for World Origin.
Yet, the prospect of venturing into the Fierce Crimson World left them indecisive and hesitant.
"The Fierce Crimson World is still too perilous," the Heart Demon Martial God mused. "I''ll wait a little longer. Another three thousand years. If no suitable minor world emerges within that time, I shall vie for the World Origin in the Fierce Crimson World."
With this ultimatum, the Heart Demon Martial God set a final deadline, confident that no one within these three millennia would entirely im the Fierce Crimson World.
"Resume the music!"manded the Heart Demon Martial God, their eyes narrowing slightly as they observed the dance of the courtdies in the hall, winess in hand. Skilled in maniption and illusion, he also excelled at savoring life''s pleasures.
To him, cultivation was a means to enjoy life, a philosophy starkly different from that of ascetic cultivators. Of course, this was also linked to hisprehension of the Law of Illusion.
How could one create illusions targeting the human heart without immersing oneself in the joys and studies of life? Thus, their indulgence was, in fact, a unique form of cultivation.
The dancers energetically swayed their bodies as Martial Kings below reveled in drink and merriment. Everything seemed blissful until the Heart Demon Martial God sensed something amiss. The scene before them gradually became hazy and eventually vanished, reced by a blinding white light.
"Who''s there?" The Heart Demon Martial God snapped to alertness. A figure, seemingly distant yet paradoxically close, approached step by step, appearing before them.
"Heart Demon Martial God, esteemed Mi Tian," the figure spoke, "I havee to borrow something from you."
"Borrow something?" scoffed the Heart Demon Martial God, their gaze growing colder. "Toe here so stealthily and ask to borrow from me? It seems you do not take me seriously!"
Without hesitation, the Heart Demon Martial God unleashed the six Laws of Illusion within them, enveloping the neer in their entirety. Be it Martial Gods or Deity Transformation cultivators, anyone shrouded by thesews would fall prey to their illusions. Not sparing any mercy for one who appeared so silently before him, he prepared to ensnare their uninvited guest.
"World Law, Seal!"
Lin Fei shook his head slightly, a glint of sharpness shing in his eyes. He had deployed the Saber World, instantly enveloping the Heart Demon Martial God''s abode and isting it from the outside world.
Furthermore, the Saber World seamlessly integrated with the World Laws – all seven of them infused into the Saber World. This integration was what allowed Lin Fei to approach the Heart Demon Martial God undetected.
Only within the Saber World could the Heart Demon Martial God''s Law of Illusion be perceived by Lin Fei. As soon as he unleashed his illusionaryw, Lin Fei''s seven World Laws had already sealed it.
The color drained from the Heart Demon Martial God''s face. Their eyes widened in disbelief. Their once unbeatable Law of Illusion had been sealed and suppressed right before their eyes, an unprecedented urrence since their ascension to Martial God status.
"How is this possible? Who are you?"
A look of horror crossed the face of the Heart Demon Martial God. This was the first time their Law of Illusion had been suppressed since they became a Martial God.
"Who I am is not important," Lin Fei replied with a slight smile. "What matters is, now that you''ve lost your Law of Illusion, what other means do you have, Mi Tian the Heart Demon Martial God?"
Lin Fei didn''t make a move physically; instead, the eight hundred particle worlds within him erupted with a tremendous surge of power. This overwhelming force soared skywards, enveloping the Heart Demon Martial God.
Under the immense pressure of the eight hundred particle worlds, the Heart Demon Martial God trembled, realizing they stood no chance against Lin Fei. Any resistance would undoubtedly lead to their demise.
