Donghuang Ziji

Chapter 911: Demonic Demon

The partial liberation of power and will did not make the Emperor of Heaven, who had transformed into the immortal world, become normal.

The auspicious cloud on top of it became even larger due to the release of power. The boundless sea of ​​lotus continued to spread, with endless golden lamps suspended above it, and each golden lamp guided an illusory creature towards reality.

Shadows of gods, dragons, phoenixes, black rabbits, pagodas, ruyi and so on continued to materialize and fall onto the golden lamps, transforming into blessings to protect the essence of those living beings and at the same time planting the seeds of goodness in them.

One illusory world after another emerged, and one living being after another transcended into them.

Countless good thoughts and kindness all gathered on the Emperor of Heaven. He looked at Chu Tai and said, "Although I have been observing you for a long time, the real communication should only begin today. Is there anything you want to ask?"

Looking at the Emperor of Heaven in front of him, he seemed to have more humanity than the one who had answered him before, "How can it be tiring to see all living beings become good?"

But what Chu Tai could feel more was the overflow of a terrifying truth, which encompassed everything in the heaven and earth, all natural changes, all operating laws, all sentient beings' causes and conditions, and blended everything into a wonderful fruit of the Tao.

In his Tao fruit, Chu Tai can see all the truths he wants to see, and can also feel all the knowledge he wants to feel.

The Donghuang Bell kept running and was replenished from this Dao Fruit. Several Dao Fruits that were still missing and less than the third grade were broken through and completed.

The fifth-grade Dao Fruit fragment [Saint] of the Tiangong Dao Fruit system blossomed with brilliance, and the illusory fourth-grade Dao Fruit fragment [God] was completely formed. Compared with the slight limitations of the [Saint] period, the [God] of the Tiangong system was like the embodiment of craftsmanship that had reached its extreme.

Chu Tai could feel the endless changes and transformations in craftsmanship and technology just by taking a glance.

It even contains some of the mysteries of creation.

It’s a pity that the Tiangong system has certain limitations. It is difficult to break through the inherent shackles and seems to be a bit mediocre.

Different from them, Yuanjun, Yaosheng and Yaoxian Daoguo systems, under the attention of the Emperor of Heaven, have also completed their final transformations and have been promoted to the third-grade Daoguo [Goddess], [King] and [Achievement].

The "God" in "Goddess" is similar to the some of the "Immortal" magic that Chu Tai originally mastered. It does not refer to a specific god, but corresponds to the overall concept of "God".

Therefore, the third-grade Dao Fruit [Goddess] of the Yuanjun system has essentially covered some concepts of the dependent system. Through some kind of connection, one can become a goddess in a certain aspect and then master the divine power and domain power in a certain aspect.

But compared to normal gods, the Goddess has a much higher degree of freedom. From a certain perspective, she also has some of the aura of gods or immortals.

The rest [Becoming King] is the third-grade Dao Fruit under the Demon Saint system. This concept is somewhat similar to [Goddess]. Its corresponding [King] is the ultimate transformation of its fourth-grade [Gathering Crowds].

The fourth rank of the Demon Saint system, [Gathering], can also be called [Demon Commander]. Its essence is to gain more powerful strength by eroding the earth veins and order.

It is an existence that has mastered certain concepts of the earth, monsters, leadership, and even the concept of order.

After being sublimated into [King], it is an imitation of the human order. It is a powerful existence that has mastered certain concepts of monsters, rule, royal power, and order. Such an existence cannot even be simply called a [Monster King], because the scope of its rule, the scope of royal power and order are not necessarily limited to monsters.

'No wonder I was unable to fully condense it before. If I hadn't studied this system, which symbolizes an alternative humanitarian order, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to perfect it. The little insights I have will basically be absorbed by the way of gods and humanity.'

Looking at the power emanating from [Proclaim the King], Chu Tai whispered in his heart: "No, if nothing unexpected happened, I would not have thought of this power at all due to the influence of Dongji Chenguang Datian. After all, this power actually involves a certain system of the Saint King Avenue."

'According to the influence of the past Saint King Avenue, whether it is self-cognition or the absorption of the principles and laws, this possibility will be avoided.'

'Only under this person's influence can we skip many influences and move in a direction that we would never have thought of.'

Thinking of this, Chu Tai also saw the gap between himself and the other party.

Although his [Taiyi] Dao Fruit contains the dual changes of heaven and man, and many changes are derived from it, it can turn the impossible into the possible.

But all these changes are still limited by his own influence.

What he couldn't think of, or the direction he hadn't thought about, would still affect the development of the Taiyi Avenue.

Even though the Heavenly Taiyi in his Taiyi Dao already includes this part of Dao fruit and power, it is still easy to go astray and think in the wrong direction due to the limitations of the thinking of the Human Taiyi.

From this point of view, Chu Tai was able to fight against the gods and demons with great help from the two Heavenly Emperors.

Without the help of the two, Chu Tai could at most protect himself from the attack of one of them, and it would be impossible for him to fight back and forth with the opponent like he is doing now.

Of course, it is also possible that it is precisely because Chu Tai still has strong subjectivity and limitations that he helps the two Heavenly Emperors, allowing them to derive some changes that go beyond the Heaven and the Heavenly Demon, and thus suppress the two.

"Perhaps, for the two seniors, my greatest role is to provide new variables?"

Chu Tai inexplicably had this thought in his mind, and while thinking, he looked at the [Attainment] of the Demon Immortal System.

This fruit of Tao has no special features. In fact, it is a fruit of Tao that covers the concept of monsters with the way of immortals. It is very mediocre in all aspects. The only interesting thing about it is that it improves the concept of "immortality" that Chu Tai has mastered.

At the same time, the reason why it has been difficult to perfect in the past is that the immortal way can hardly cover the changes of the demon way.

Looking at this Dao fruit of [Achievement of Dao], Chu Tai suddenly remembered that when he obtained the Dao fruit system of Demon Saint and Demon Immortal in the past, he also had the opportunity to master another Dao fruit system.

As this thought came to mind, some black air gradually rose between the two Dao Fruit systems of Demon Saint and Demon Immortal. Some of the principles absorbed from the Heavenly Demon gathered on it, revealing the third system that had not been realized in the past.

Demonic Dao Fruit System.

As soon as this system was formed, it began to be improved frantically. The ninth level was [Sperm Stealing], which was similar to the ninth level [Genesis] of the Demon Saint. Both strengthened a little spirituality, strengthened a certain physique, and gained some spell-like abilities.

But the most important thing about [Born Different] is to obtain the talent of inhaling and exhaling vital energy, which allows one to slowly absorb the vital energy and spiritual inspiration between heaven and earth and improve one's own strength.

[Sperm Stealing] is different. Its core ability is to steal the essence of people around it. There is no prerequisite for this kind of stealing. As long as they are in close contact and cannot lock their own essence, it will be stolen. Even if they have close contact with the person who masters [Sperm Stealing], the speed of being stolen will be faster and the amount will be greater.

Correspondingly, this Dao Fruit fragment is also one of the few Dao Fruit fragments that Chu Tai has so far that has obvious defects and negative effects.

For those who are blessed with [Sperm Stealing], the desires in their hearts will be constantly magnified, especially the desire for greed will be significantly increased.

The eighth grade is [Stealing Souls]. Compared to [Stealing Essence], this Dao Fruit fragment will bestow a more powerful spiritual blessing. At the same time, the body of the person who masters it will become more perfect, and an irresistible charm will be emanated from the whole body. While strengthening all the abilities of [Stealing Essence], it also gives it the ability to steal spirits.

The spirituality here can be regarded as the talent possessed by the living being itself. As long as there is long-term contact with it, the corresponding spiritual talent will be obviously lost, and most of the loss will be absorbed by the being in charge of [Soul Stealing].

Of course, due to the influence of status, this process is very long. A person with a little talent may need a master of [Soul Stealing] to spend more than ten years to steal.

Therefore, this Dao Fruit fragment is actually not suitable for humans to hold, but is more suitable for being held as an object to be worn or played with for a long time.

At the same time, the negative effect of holding this Dao Fruit fragment is that a certain chaos appears in the mind. This change is not only to better carry the stolen spirituality, but also the beginning of the distortion of its essence.

Therefore, the core ability of [Painted Skin], the seventh-grade Dao Fruit fragment above [Stealing Soul], is to help anchor the mind.

[Painted Skin] is different from the seventh-grade [Transformation] of the Demon Fairy that confers the initial ability to transform into a humanoid, nor is it like the seventh-grade [Swallowing Breath] of the Demon Saint system that continues to strengthen one's physical strength.

[Painted Skin] is achieved by strengthening the abilities of [Stealing Essence] and [Stealing Souls], using the essence and spirituality of others as ink to transform oneself through a "skin" made using special techniques. At the same time, one stabilizes one's own spirituality through the stories carried in the "skin".

The shortcomings are also very obvious. It is easy to fall into the story of "skin". Even if you know it is fake, you can't help but act it out, or you are full of desire to perform.

It can be said that starting from this level, if it is an object or a spirit, it will gradually condense the concept of self, but if a person holds this object, the concept of self will gradually be confused.

The sixth level further intensifies this problem. It is called [Inner Demon]. Its ability is to steal essence, spirituality, and the stories carried by the "skin", and give birth to its own spirituality. For the person in charge, it is like a new personality is born in his body.

If strange creatures and animals with little intelligence reach this stage, the new personality will most likely dominate their will. But for humans, this step is the most dangerous. At best, they will go mad, and at worst, they will be replaced by someone else.

But this ability itself is also very troublesome and strange. It is considered to be the most troublesome kind of the sixth-grade Dao Fruit fragments that Chu Tai has seen. These personalities can separate from the main body to exert influence outward, and can even change themselves as needed, constantly influencing the thoughts of other individuals, just like real inner demons and secret demons.

And the stories and parts of the personalities of the creatures that die from this ability will become attached to it and become new "inner demons".

This new "inner demon" not only has its own personality, but also retains some of the power it originally possessed.

This means that theoretically, the more people this Dao Fruit fragment kills, the more powerful it becomes. However, once it kills too many people, the backlash will be extremely terrifying.

Seeing this, Chu Tai already understood why the Donghuang Bell did not condense it before. Given the strangeness of this fruit, he might not have been able to control it back then.

He watched as the [Inner Demon], under the influence of the power of the Heavenly Demon, quickly advanced to the fifth-grade [Corpse Demon]. This was an even more unreasonable evolution of the Tao Fruit.

The person in charge needs to abandon his physical body and completely transform himself into a being similar to the inner demon or the secret demon of the heavens. At the same time, he needs to let a large number of the inner demons become spiritual nutrients for the corpse, allowing the corpse to generate new spirituality, and then take over the body of another spirit the moment the corpse turns into a monster.

In this way, he retains his own abilities similar to those of evil spirits and wronged souls, while obtaining the body of a corpse monster that is full of distortion, corruption, and death.

It is an extreme distortion and confusion, and a double blasphemy against life and death.

Theoretically speaking, as long as one can keep his state of mind stable and master the existence of this Dao Fruit fragment, he will be able to survive forever.

But the problem is that due to the special nature of its flesh, the master of the [Corpse Demon] is always corroded by the distortion, corruption and death contained in the corpse.

If this fragment of the Dao Fruit was placed in the Dongji Chenguang Heaven, it would probably be rejected by heaven and earth the moment it appeared, or even be punished by thunder.

Fortunately, the Heavenly Emperor in front of him didn't care and allowed Chu Tai to deduce, but this was obviously the limit of what the Heavenly Emperor could tolerate. At the moment when the [Corpse Demon] further transformed and was about to give birth to the fourth grade, the Heavenly Emperor suddenly spoke.

"Don't perfect it any further. The current level is the best limit you can accept. If you go any lower, you will be easily disturbed by the demons."

As his words fell, the power of the Heavenly Demon began to fade, and the fragment of the fourth-grade Dao Fruit that was about to take shape stopped there and no longer condensed.

Chu Tai bowed to the Emperor of Heaven to express his gratitude. The Emperor of Heaven smiled and said, "I hope you don't think I disrupted your deduction. I have to say that your Donghuang Bell is quite capable. It can absorb many Dao fruits and information and evolve a new Dao fruit system. It is somewhat similar to the Conferred God List that I refined at the beginning of my practice."

"Gods List?"

Chu Tai looked at the Emperor of Heaven with some surprise. Although he knew that there should be something similar in the Heavenly World, he did not expect that this thing was actually made by the Emperor of Heaven himself at the beginning of his practice.

The Emperor of Heaven smiled and said, "Is it strange? I was born at the right time. When I was born, I had a treasure with me. It is a mirror that can analyze everything in the world. I am also talented and can always gain some insights from it."

"But you also know that human energy is limited. In order to better utilize my talent and magic mirror, I specially refined the List of Conferred Gods. Of course, it was not called this name at the time. Its essence is a volume of notes in which I recorded many principles that I could not comprehend for the time being."

"It's just that over time, and with my continuous improvement in cultivation, the notebook has more and more functions, and gradually it has the ability to grant others some magical powers, and even derive talisman spirits. When I became the Emperor of Heaven, the principles in it were consistent with the heaven and earth, and they became many divine positions."
