Chapter 671: The Fall of the Ancestral Demon Realm!
Chapter 671: The Fall of the Ancestral Demon Realm!
"Damn it!"
The two Demon Lords of the Demon Race, sensing the rich and surging power of the void, both had their faces turn pale. Although they were both Divine Lords of the Seventh Heaven, facing the power of the void that Chen Mu was controlling at this very moment, they could only feel an unshakable force.
However, at this critical juncture, they did not completely lose hope. After all, this was the Ancestral Demon Realm, the Demon Race's base of operations after countless years of development. Even though the realm was currently weakened, and the true body of the Demon Ancestor was not present, they still had some resistance against external enemies.
Boom!!!
Almost at the next moment, in the very center of the Ancestral Demon Realm, within the Demon Race's ancestral land, an overwhelming and surging power erupted, unleashing an intense dark brilliance that spread in all directions.
This dark brilliance was not the power of any Divine Realm being, nor was it divine power. It was the power of the Ancestral Demon Realm's interface!
In the distant past, the Ancestral Demon Realm also had a Realm Lord, but the first Realm Lord, despite being the Demon Race's first Divine Realm being, had reached his limit upon entering the Divine Realm. His aptitude was insufficient to advance to the Divine Lord level, and thus, in the subsequent years, he perished and was buried in the dust of history.
However, the Ancestral Demon Realm did not decline because of this. By then, the Demon Ancestor had already emerged. He was the true prodigy of the Demon Race and had received guidance from the first Realm Lord. His cultivation progressed smoothly, eventually breaking through the Seventh Heaven and achieving the status of a Divine Lord. Under his leadership, the Demon Race fought their way out of the masses and gradually rose to the pinnacle of power!
After the first Realm Lord of the Ancestral Demon Realm perished, the realm no longer had a Realm Lord. However, the entire world continued to grow under the constant plundering and annexation of the Demon Ancestor. This world followed the will of the Demon Ancestor!
At this moment,
The power of the entire Ancestral Demon Realm's interface surged, vast and boundless. As soon as it appeared, it had already broken through the Seventh Heaven and reached the level of the Eighth Heaven!
Even the Vangu Realm, with its Divine Lord trapped, could rely on its realm to resist the Divine Lord of the Eighth Heaven. How much more so for the Ancestral Demon Realm, which had almost plundered the entire void and accumulated an immense amount of power? This surging power even directly surpassed the threshold of the Eighth Heaven, reaching its pinnacle!
Boom!
This surging power of the Demon Realm, like a thick black fog, billowed and churned, blocking out the sky and the sun. It also transformed into a pitch-black giant hand that rose into the sky, confronting the descending Void Great Hand of Chen Mu.
"Your Demon Race has devoured almost the entire void over countless years, and your accumulation is indeed substantial."
Chen Mu observed this scene, speaking calmly, his voice echoing throughout the Demon Realm.
In the past, the Demon Race had also provoked a formidable enemy at the peak of the Eighth Heaven. The enemy invaded the Ancestral Demon Realm, and a great war raged for several epochs. In the end, they were unable to defeat the Demon Race and had to retreat.
The Demon Race's ability to resist a peak Eighth Heaven enemy relied not only on the Demon Ancestor, an Eighth Heaven Divine Lord, but also on the vast power of the Ancestral Demon Realm, which had devoured almost the entire void.
However,
The power of the interface was ultimately not divine power.
The Ancestral Demon Realm was also different from Chen Mu, who had cultivated an interface clone as the Realm Lord and used void techniques to merge with the human realm, controlling the power of the interface with human strength. Although the power of the Ancestral Demon Realm was vast and mighty, and its might had indeed reached the peak of the Eighth Heaven, no one could truly control this power, not even the Demon Ancestor.
While the level of power was sufficient, the techniques used to wield it were extremely crude, falling far short of what was needed to confront a true Divine Lord of the Eighth Heaven. Moreover, this power of the interface had significant limitations, capable only of defending the interface itself and unable to extend its influence too far.
Of course,
If the true body of the Demon Ancestor were here, combining his power with the interface's will, they might be able to contend with opponents like the Divine Lord of the Vangu Realm, who was at the peak of the Eighth Heaven.
As the will of the Ancestral Demon Realm's interface erupted, the vast power surged, transforming into a torrent of demonic energy in an attempt to resist Chen Mu. The countless beings of the Ancestral Demon Realm looked up at the sky, their eyes filled with apprehension.
Could they hold out?
The lower-ranked beings had already prostrated themselves on the ground, praying to the Ancestral Demon Realm, hoping to contribute their strength.
However, the higher-ranked True Gods and True Demons had more subdued expressions, their hearts heavy with worry. They knew how terrifying Chen Mu was. Even without considering his identity as a reincarnation of the Ninth Heaven, just his status as the Void Overlord of the Eighth Heaven Limit was already extremely formidable. It was uncertain if the entire Ancestral Demon Realm united could resist him.
Now that Chen Mu had appeared, only two Demon Lords were present, fleeing in opposite directions, and no other Demon Lords had taken action. The only resistance against Chen Mu was the spontaneous will of the Ancestral Demon Realm's interface. How could they possibly hold back Chen Mu?
Compared to them,
The two Demon Lords who were blocked at the edge of the Ancestral Demon Realm had even less intention of resisting Chen Mu. They only hoped that the power of the interface could briefly stall Chen Mu for a moment, giving them a chance to escape.
(End of Chapter 671)
Although Chen Mu was a domineering master of the Void Lineage, making escape nearly impossible, they were still Divine Lords and had their differences. Once they escaped, they would immediately rush towards those dangerous secret realms, perhaps finding a glimmer of survival.
For instance, the Xuli River!
Confronting Chen Mu directly was undoubtedly fatal, but the vortex within the Xuli River, though leading to an extremely dangerous place, offered a glimmer of hope compared to facing Chen Mu.
Similar secret realms existed in the vast depths of the void, providing a chance for escape and survival. Not escaping meant certain death.
However, Chen Mu's colossal hand that pressed down from above needed only one strike to crush the hopes of the two Demon Lords.
A giant palm formed from the power of the void stretched for billions of miles, collapsing the sky and colliding head-on with the giant palm formed by the power of the Zu Mo Realm. The impact of these two enormous palms spanning billions of miles was almost unimaginable. In just an instant, the aftermath of the collision killed countless beings in the Zu Mo Realm.
With just this simple collision, the giant palm that had gathered the power of the entire Zu Mo Realm was crushed and shattered by Chen Mu's void giant hand, disintegrating and collapsing instantly.
This was not a focused strike using techniques, but a disdain for any skill, a pure clash of might, a straightforward and overwhelming suppression!
The power of the Eighth Heaven Overlord's interface was like paper before Chen Mu's strike, easily crushed.
"This..."
Both Demon Lords knew that the interface power couldn't stop Chen Mu, but they didn't expect it to be so fragile. Even if Chen Mu was an Eighth Heaven Limit Divine Lord, he shouldn't have shattered the entire interface power of the Zu Mo Realm so easily.
This overwhelming might had clearly surpassed the limits of the Eighth Heaven!
"The Ninth Heaven..."
One of the Demon Lords looked up at the colossal hand pressing down from the sky, his voice hoarse.
Undoubtedly, this was the supreme might of the Ninth Heaven, capable of crushing the interface power of the Eighth Heaven Overlord. Only the Ninth Heaven could achieve this. Chen Mu, a reincarnation of the Ninth Heaven, had returned to his former glory in just over a hundred epochs.
"Karma, karma. With the cause of plunder, there will be the fruit of destruction... No, it's just that we are not strong enough."
One of the Demon Lords muttered.
Divine beings, after surviving for a million epochs, face a 'tribulation' every 'epoch'. These tribulations could be substantial disasters in the cosmos or other forms of calamity, unavoidable hardships.
The more slaughter, massacre, and plunder, the more severe these disasters would be. Similarly, the more karma accumulated, the more it would erupt during tribulations. Therefore, the stronger the Divine Lord, the more they valued karma.
However, indulging in plunder and reversing karma didn't necessarily lead to destruction by tribulations.
As long as one became strong enough and continued to grow stronger, they could keep the tribulations at bay. If one could reach the end of the immortal path and attain the status of a Dao Supreme, all tribulations would dissipate.
Among the supreme Dao Supremes, there were those who followed the path of slaughter.
The Demon Race chose this path, indulging in slaughter and plunder to strengthen their race, believing they could ignore tribulations by growing stronger.
But up until now, the Demon Ancestor had failed to cross the threshold of the Ninth Heaven, let alone reach the peak of the Eighth Heaven. They encountered Chen Mu, and everything came to a sudden halt. They were once tribulations on Chen Mu's path to rise, and now it was the cycle of karma.
Boom!!!
The colossal hand pressed down, crushing the eight-layered structure of the Zu Mo Realm, tearing it apart with a single strike. Although this attack was aimed at the world itself, the aftermath still killed countless beings in an instant.
The two Seventh Heaven Demon Lords struggled desperately, but to no avail. They couldn't resist or evade Chen Mu's overwhelming might, and they could only watch helplessly as the giant palm descended, ultimately being annihilated by Chen Mu's palm.
The palm fell.
The Zu Mo Realm collapsed!
The Zu Mo Realm, which had ravaged and plundered the Zu Mo Void for countless years, was utterly shattered by Chen Mu's strike, breaking into countless fragments that scattered in all directions.
Chen Mu could sense the interface's origin power, which had been plundered and absorbed by the Zu Mo Realm, rapidly dissipating and vanishing into the void. It was foreseeable that after a long time, the Zu Mo Void might give birth to three thousand great realms and countless small realms again.
But by then, the ruler of the universe would no longer be the Demon Race.
As new powers rose, the Zu Mo Void would change its name, becoming a new heaven and earth.
"Yesterday's cause, today's result."
Chen Mu gazed at the shattered Zu Mo Realm, his eyes devoid of pity, only calmness.
After that,
He turned his gaze towards the depths of the void.
"Escaping early does show foresight, but can you truly escape?"
The 169th chapter!
The other Mo Jun had no direct grudges with him, nor were there any obvious Yin Gu Zhi Xian that could be traced back. He could ignore them, but Shangmang Mojun, who had personally tried to eliminate him during his rise, was someone he would not let off.
Shangmang Mojun had long left the Zu Mo Jie, and even erased all traces of his existence, attempting to hide from Chen Mu. However, the Yin Gu between them was the deepest, a life-and-death grudge!
At this very moment,
In Chen Mu's eyes, he could still clearly see the Yin Gu Zhi Xian connecting him and Shangmang Mojun. Although the other end of this Yin Gu Zhi Xian was extremely blurry, obviously hidden by Shangmang Mojun, the line was so clear and profound that even Chen Mu, who was not from the Zhaohua lineage, could still trace it.
Shangmang Mojun was a Seventh Level Overlord, and for Chen Mu, who was not adept at Yin Gu methods, attempting to curse-kill his true body from a distance was indeed extremely difficult. But he didn't need to do that. As a Ninth Heaven Shenjun from the Void lineage, he only needed to follow the Yin Gu path and confirm Shangmang Mojun's true body's location.
Once the location was confirmed, no matter how far it was, even at the edge of the world, he could traverse the void and arrive in an instant.
If Shangmang Mojun could break through the Eighth Heaven and use the methods of the Zhaohua lineage, he might have a chance to completely conceal the Yin Gu. But the current Shangmang Mojun was obviously unable to do so.
"He escaped quite far."
Through the Yin Gu Zhi Xian, Chen Mu quickly sensed the location of Shangmang Mojun's true body.
The location was indeed very far from here, no longer in the area near Nan Hua Kong and Tian Ji Kong, but at least hundreds of Kong seats away. For a Seventh Level Shenjun, it was indeed a long distance.
But for Chen Mu now, a distance of hundreds of Kong seats was nothing.
Whoosh!
A faint light flashed in Chen Mu's eyes, and his entire person quietly disappeared from the Zu Mo Kong Yu.
...
Not long after Chen Mu left,
Zu Mo Kong Yu,
Border.
Numerous figures appeared, their gazes fixed on the depths of Zu Mo Kong Yu, looking towards the former location of Zu Mo Jie. Their eyes held fear, shock, and lingering terror.
All of them were Shenjun-level existences. The might unleashed by Chen Mu's single attack that destroyed Zu Mo Jie shattered the Ninth Heaven. The divine might was so vast that even outside Zu Mo Kong Yu, they could feel the overwhelming divine power.
"Zu Mo Jie is no more."
"The Mo Zu didn't make a move, so the rumors are true. His Shen Li Zhen Shen must have encountered a problem and is trapped somewhere. But even if his true body was in Zu Mo Jie, it wouldn't have changed the outcome. Instead, it's fortunate that his true body is trapped, as it might have given him a chance to escape this person's pursuit."
Someone muttered.
"The Ninth Heaven."
Someone sighed.
Although he was also a Shenjun, standing above all beings and receiving the reverence of countless true deities, he had been stuck at the Seventh Level for countless years. Becoming a Shenjun Overlord of the Eighth Heaven seemed like a distant dream, let alone the Ninth Heaven, an unparalleled existence.
Even for a Shenjun, the unparalleled existence of the Ninth Heaven was someone they had to look up to. Just like the Nan Hua Master, who ruled over the entire Nan Hua Kong, every power had to bow in submission.
The current Chen Mu was no exception.
When the news of Chen Mu being a reincarnation of the Ninth Heaven spread, many had already anticipated that if it were true, Chen Mu would likely return to the Ninth Heaven in the future. But they never expected it to happen so soon, in just over a hundred years! Some couldn't help but feel envious of the Vangu Divine Lord.
"Vangu, how fortunate to befriend such a person."
Although the Vangu Divine Lord was also an Overlord of the Eighth Heaven, befriending a Shenjun of the Ninth Heaven was undoubtedly a blessing, especially since Chen Mu was from the Void lineage. This might be Vangu's opportunity to break through to the Ninth Heaven.
In comparison, the Mo Zu had made a terrible mistake, sealing their fate. Who could have predicted that a Ninth Heaven Shenjun would emerge from an uncultivated world? This was the Yin Gu sown by the Mo Zu's rampant plundering and domineering actions! "Fortunately, I didn't become their enemy."
Someone secretly rejoiced in their heart. When the Vangu Divine Lord's true body encountered trouble, many forces plotted to divide the resources and benefits of the Vangu Kong Yu. But before they could make their move, Chen Mu's display of power stopped them.
Now, looking back, being cautious was indeed a good thing. If they had joined forces with the Mo Zu against Zu Mo Kong Yu, they would have undoubtedly attracted the attention of Chen Mu, the unparalleled Shenjun of the Ninth Heaven. One wrong move, and they might have faced the same fate—death and annihilation!
