Chapter 558: A Strike to Annihilate!
Chapter 558: A Strike to Annihilate!
These words caused countless Martial Artists on the Human side to change their expressions.
Resist or surrender?
The Demon Race's might was overwhelming, and now there was no longer any doubt that there were not just one, but multiple Divine Realm beings within their ranks. For the Great Xuan World, which had never produced a Divine Realm existence, this was almost a hopeless situation, an unstoppable heavenly might.
If they chose to resist the Demon Race to the death, perhaps the entire Great Xuan World would fall, and all living beings would cease to exist.
If they chose to surrender...
Perhaps the world would still be filled with living beings, albeit as slaves to the Demon Race, but it might truly allow some people to survive. However, the words of the Demon Race might not be trustworthy, as they were known for their cunning and deceit, and this could just be a ploy to shake their resolve.
Countless gazes converged on Chen Mu, and the entire world fell into silence.
Not only the numerous Demons present, but even in the distant realm beyond, in the Ancestral Demon Realm, Mang, Wang, and the other True Demons were watching the Northern City Gate of the Great Xuan World through the Gray Vortex, gazing at the figure standing above countless Martial Artists.
"A person like this would never submit."
Hui spoke indifferently.
Wang, however, smiled lightly and said, "That's not necessarily true. In the Endless Universe, among the Ten Thousand Tribes of All Worlds, the Human Race is born with the weakest bloodline, but they possess the greatest wisdom. However, they also have various weaknesses, and when threatened with their lives, they might not compromise, as there are things they value even above their own lives."
"Boring."
Mang responded indifferently.
In his eyes, although Humans had commendable wisdom, they were flawed in every other aspect and not worth mentioning.
If Chen Mu were to abandon the Great Xuan World, stay in the Origin Site, or go to other worlds, he might be able to save himself. But by returning here and attempting to resist the Demon army, he was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, failing to understand the situation and seeking his own demise.
"Not abandoning this world is a flaw..."
"Hmm?"
Mang's gaze, focused on the Gray Vortex, suddenly changed, and even the True Demons, Wang and Hui, standing beside him, had their eyes widen in shock, and their auras began to stir.
"Impossible!"
Hui's eyes widened in shock, and his tone was filled with disbelief.
Wang, looking into the Gray Vortex, had a pair of purple eyes that were filled with surprise.
They saw.
The Gray Vortex displayed the battlefield at the Northern City Gate of the Great Xuan World. The figure standing atop the sky dome, facing the vast Demon army and the Five Great Demon Generals, slowly raised his right hand and took out a... flying spear!
The numerous Martial Artists of the Great Xuan World, including Gong Yang Yu and Yuan Hong, couldn't immediately understand the significance of the flying spear. But even without the presence of the True Demons, Mang and Wang, or the Demon Generals and Commanders, they instantly recognized the flying spear as an indisputable Divine Armament belonging to the Void Dao!
Void Dart!
For those below the Divine Realm, to wield a Divine Armament, one must cultivate the same primordial Dao seed as the Armament. If one could truly cultivate such a seed and obtain a corresponding primordial Dao Armament, then Chen Mu's strength...
Bad news!
The Five Great Demon Generals and the Twenty Great Commanders, their Demon shadows revealing shocked expressions, couldn't believe that Chen Mu, at this moment, would take out a Void Dao Armament just to scare them off!
Chen Mu held the Void Dart in his hand, his gaze scanning the Demon army, noticed the pervasive death energy, and faintly sensed the lingering aura of Feng Hong Sheng.
"Did Elder Feng also perish?"
"You all... shall accompany him."
Chen Mu slowly closed his eyes.
The Void Dart in his hand quietly rose and then disappeared into nothingness.
In the Origin Site, due to the unique environmental conditions, the power of the Armament seemed not too formidable. But in the Great Xuan World, unrestrained, the slightest display of its might caused the entire world to tremble.
The Five Great Demon Generals were horrified, and the Twenty Great Commanders tried to escape at the first opportunity, but under the might of the Void Dao Armament, their actions were insignificant. Escaping was futile.
At this moment, everyone present heard a crisp cracking sound, like shattering glass. Accompanying this sound, the entire Demon army, along with the vast Demon energy, froze.
An inconspicuous white silk thread silently appeared in the void, seemingly not too impressive, resembling the white rift created by a Blood Transformation Realm expert exerting all their strength at the boundary.
And yet, this thread was different.
This single strand of silk spanned the heavens and earth, stretching for hundreds of miles!
It pierced through the entire Demon Race's formation, starting from in front of Chen Mu, and even penetrated the Heavenly-Earth Barrier of the Northern City Gate. It extended for thousands of miles beyond the Thousand-Mile Pass, seemingly dividing the entire heavens and earth in two!
But it didn't end there.
Hiss.
Following closely, a second white silk thread appeared, slanting through the air and also piercing the Demon Race's massive army.
Then came the third,
The fourth,
The fifth,
...
It was as if an ancient and eternal moment had passed, or perhaps just a fleeting instant, as countless dense white silk threads intertwined, encompassing the direction of the Northern City Gate and trapping the vast Demon Race army within.
Gua Ji.
All the martial artists in the Great Xuan World heard a sound akin to slicing through a watermelon.
Their eyes widened in awe as they gazed into the void ahead, witnessing countless white silk threads suddenly creating countless dislocations in an instant. It was as if a painting had been cut in half, and then the upper and lower halves were shifted, repeating this process countless times in a split second, causing the entire void to seem like an endless dislocated space!
Whether they were lowly Ancient Demons, Heavenly Demons, Demon Commanders, or even the Five Great Demon Generals, whether they had physical bodies or not, they were all frozen within, torn apart into countless dislocated fragments.
Finally.
The vast void silently collapsed and vanished, forming a Boundary Void Hole that stretched for nearly a hundred miles, swallowing everything within. The surging Demon Energy was frantically drawn out of the heavens and earth, pouring into the hole to be devoured, and eventually, the entire sky dome returned to a serene blue.
Such a massive Boundary Void Hole should have been incredibly dangerous, with its turbulent void currents and powerful suction force. Even a Bone Cleansing Master, let alone a Blood Transformation Expert, or even a Celestial Being, might not be able to escape at such close proximity. They would be forcibly pulled in and annihilated.
Yet, surprisingly, this formidable power didn't spill over at all, and Chen Mu stood before it, unperturbed.
Chen Mu stood tall beneath the sky, facing the vast Boundary Void Hole. The human martial artists behind him didn't feel the slightest suction force, as if Chen Mu's presence halted it all.
As the nearly thousand-mile-wide hole began to rapidly heal under the surging Heaven-Earth Power, a streak of flowing light tore through the void and returned to Chen Mu's palm—the Void Path Divine Armament!
One strike,
The Demon Race army was annihilated!
Chen Mu held the flying spear in one hand while shifting his gaze from the void hole upward, toward the sky dome.
Ancestral Demon Realm.
At the edge of the Gray Vortex.
Mang, Wu, and Hui, three Divine Realm True Demons, observed the events in the Great Xuan World through the Gray Vortex, and they all fell silent, especially when Chen Mu, in the image, lifted his head as if looking through the vortex at them. This caused the atmosphere in the Ancestral Demon Realm to become oppressively tense.
"Void Path Seedling..."
Hui remained silent for a long time before finally speaking, "No wonder in this uncultivated world, so many beings have been able to comprehend the profound mysteries of the Void Path. It seems they were all guided by him."
As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Mang, "Mang, a being like this has emerged in this world, why didn't you inform me? Instead, you sent our Demon Generals and Commanders to their deaths."
"The once hot-tempered Mang, who would fly into a rage at the slightest provocation, remained silent at this moment. After a long pause, he finally spoke, "The trap I set was removed by this person. I even tried to cross dimensions to eliminate him, but at that time, he had already cultivated the Immortal Heart Soul. With my true body unable to cross over, I couldn't kill him."
"But from that time until now, it's been merely a short while, and I never expected that this person would comprehend the Void Path Seedling and cultivate an Indestructible Body. He even managed to obtain a Void Path Divine Armament..."
Trouble!
Mang clearly understood that the current situation was far from ideal.
If it were the Chen Mu from before, even though he had cultivated the Immortal Heart Soul, Mang wouldn't have feared him. Even if Chen Mu were given more time to cultivate the Indestructible Body and break into the Divine Realm, it would still be nothing to worry about. At most, he would have barely reached the strength of the Second Heaven. But now, Mang had already attained the peak of the Third Heaven, just a hair's breadth away from ascending to the Fourth.
When the time came, and his true body descended, suppressing Chen Mu would be as easy as a snap of his fingers.
However, Chen Mu had comprehended the Void Path Seedling, and who knew where he had gotten a Void Path Divine Armament. That made the situation vastly different! Once Chen Mu broke through to the Divine Realm, with the foundation of the Void Path Seedling, his strength would not be far behind Wang and Hui. Moreover, with the possession of a Void Path Divine Armament and residing in his own world, receiving a certain level of support from Heaven and Earth, his strength would be infinitely close to the Third Heaven, even if it didn't quite reach it.
In such a situation, even if his strength was still slightly inferior to Mang's, it wouldn't be something Mang could easily handle.
Furthermore, the fact that Chen Mu could comprehend the Void Path Seedling and even possess a Void Path Divine Armament was worth pondering. Could it be that this uncultivated world had truly escaped the notice of the great clans in the Vangu Empty Domain?
Even if the Great Xuan World still didn't attract attention, Chen Mu, a being born in an uncultivated world, had the potential to reach Below Divine Rank Eight. This would certainly draw the attention of many powers in the Vangu Empty Domain!
After all, with Chen Mu's talent, breaking through to the Fourth Heaven and beyond would be a piece of cake. The Fourth Heaven was completely different from the Third, and Below Divine Rank Four and Five beings were nothing in the Endless Universe. They often had to submit to the powers of the Major Realm, unable to protect their own clans and worlds.
But reaching the Fourth Heaven and above in a place like the Vangu Empty Domain meant having the true strength to protect one's world and clan. The various powers would also show a certain level of respect.
"Report to the Great Demon Lord," Hui said after a moment of silence.
The uncultivated world they were about to invade had a Below Divine Rank Eight being, something they couldn't handle. Soon, this being would likely break through to the Divine Realm.
With their true bodies unable to cross over for the time being, they couldn't stop him.
As for requesting the help of the Demon Lord's disciples, those Below Divine Rank Eight beings, they didn't have the face to ask for such a favor. Even if they did go, they might not be able to handle Chen Mu, after all, it was his world they were dealing with!
Mang's gaze fell upon the gray vortex, and through the endless void, he carefully examined Chen Mu in the image. Then, with a wave of his hand, all the images in the vortex were extinguished, and he immediately vanished, tearing through the void and departing.
...
Great Xuan World.
Chen Mu gazed at the sky dome, briefly observing it before finally lowering his gaze.
"Not going to make a move, huh..."
He shook his head slightly.
Earlier, he hadn't used his full strength, or perhaps it was more accurate to say that dealing with some Below Divine Rank Four and Five Demon Race commanders and generals didn't require his full effort. Testing the power of the Void Dart was just right.
Moreover, Chen Mu remained vigilant against the Demon Race's Divine Realm beings. He knew that with the invasion initiated, the Demon Race's Divine Realm beings were also paying attention here. He was always prepared to respond to the Divine Realm's potential attack.
However, the Demon Race's Divine Realm beings didn't make a move.
Perhaps the 'time wasn't right' yet, and their true bodies still couldn't cross over. Or maybe, with only cross-dimensional power, they realized it wasn't enough to challenge him, so they abandoned the idea. It was also possible that this invasion was merely a probe.
In any case, Chen Mu was well aware that after his previous restrained actions, he had revealed his Below Divine Rank Eight strength, which would definitely attract a certain level of attention from the Demon Race.
He must break through to the Divine Realm as soon as possible.
