From the Ming Dynasty, we will conquer the world

Chapter 244 Demon Self as 1, The Secret Realm of Immortality

When Yin Yue captured him, Ba also thought of resisting, but he couldn't even escape with his soul. The opponent's fist intent could not only pierce through the void, but was also like the thoughts of a ghost immortal, extremely solid, and could directly interfere with matter.

Although Ba was a ghost immortal, his ancestors had been wealthy. With the help of a great master who was on the verge of shattering the vacuum realm, he also had a deep understanding of the martial arts of human immortals. He also had the body of a human immortal, so he naturally knew that this was the essence of fist intent comparable to eight tribulations of lightning.

Although the demon god Ba did not know the other party's identity, he could determine from this point that the other party must be a person from the Outer Heaven.

After all, although the world is full of hidden talents, it is currently in a "dry season". There are only two creators, Meng Shenji and Yuanqi Shen, and besides them, there is someone like him who is at the peak of the sixth tribulation.

The realm of true martial arts mastery has been unseen for countless years, and going back even further, we must trace it back to the ancient times, to those war gods who dared to defy the rule of the Holy Emperor!
Although Ba had confirmed their identities, upon hearing Xu Xing's laughter, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and look down at this overly ordinary yet overly handsome young man, his eyes filled with shock.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Xu Xing didn't say much either, but simply waved his hand, signaling Yin Yue and Bai Ziyue to step forward, and gave them instructions:

"Since he is an old friend, let's take him down and have a good chat."

After Xu Xing finished speaking, he stopped paying attention to the matter and looked at the instantaneous maze in front of him with a burning, eager gaze.

His eyes were filled with a chaotic aura that flowed like the light of the sun and moon, illuminating thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, and taking in all 129,600 void paths without the slightest oversight.

But what Xu Xing was looking at was not the heart of this vast world, but the traces left by nothingness.

At his level, the laws governing the workings of heaven and earth are no longer a secret; only the thoughts, lives, and cultivation of those of equal strength are truly worth exploring.

For powerful beings like them, who are close to the level of Yang Gods, the heavens are not high, but the human heart is the highest. This is not the wild talk of madmen, but an undeniable fact.

After observing the fist intent left by Xu Wuyi for a while, Xu Xing was completely certain that this Qi King had entered the "Thousand Transformations" realm, and even after incorporating demonic elements, he had gained a unique and profound understanding.

With this exhilarating feeling, Xu Xing tore open the countless black holes on the surface of the instantaneous maze with both hands, creating a passage that allowed Taiyue to stretch its long body and pass through.

The Nine Abyss Divine Realm has nine levels, but only the deepest level is the legendary secret realm of immortality where a moment can be ten thousand years. Each level requires a huge amount of magical power to pass through, and only those who have undergone the tribulation of lightning can descend all the way down.

Eight hundred years ago, a great war between good and evil broke out in the Great Thousand World. The top experts on both sides had the cultivation of the sixth tribulation, and were only one step away from becoming a seventh tribulation creator.

In the final battle, the powerful figures of both good and evil entered the Nine Abyss Divine Realm, their fates unknown.

It is precisely because of this that the cultivation world in the vast world has withered to this extent, with many lineages losing their inheritance and their incense offerings dying out.

Hong Yi was a book lover and a enthusiast of ancient history. When he entered the Nine Abyss Divine Realm, he couldn't help but think of this history. His spirits soared, and he felt as if he had stepped into the long river of time and become a part of it.

Unfortunately, Taiyue's current magical power is already close to that of a creator, and he also possesses what can be called the most perfect dragon body in the world. Obstacles are nothing to him. With just a few flicks of his fingers, he went straight to the sixth level, leaving Hong Yi with little time to admire the ancient ruins.

The sixth level is a vast and boundless plain, with continuous mountains and majestic peaks everywhere. In the very center, there is a touch of fresh greenery, and a strong sense of vitality is palpable.

As soon as they entered, they saw a young man standing on the highest peak of the mountain, slowly assuming a stance and demonstrating a set of boxing techniques.

Above and behind him, there were dark demonic tides, surging endlessly and overflowing, yet they seemed to follow certain rules, never overstepping the bounds, confined to a certain range, changing with the style of his fist.

The moment Yin Yue saw this person, her pupils contracted, as if she had a thorn in her back.

He had also been corrupted by demons and was trapped by them for twenty years, so he naturally understood the great terror of the demonic path.

Even with Yin Yue's natural talent, it was only after receiving guidance from Xu Xing that she was able to comprehend a set of fist techniques to suppress the demons of hell, break through the demonic obstacles in her heart, and step into the peak of the human immortal realm.

However, this person's mastery of demonic energy, demonic thoughts, and demonic consciousness far surpasses that of Yin Yue. In his eyes, there seems to be no demons or obstacles at all; he merely regards them as a convenient method for seeking the Dao.

Yin Yue also sensed that in the other party's demonic energy, in addition to the unpredictable and ever-changing nature inherited from Xu Xing, there was also a ruthless and vicious nature that was omnipotent and unrestrained.

Such an aura seems to belong only to those evil demons from eight hundred years ago who would kill and refine souls, and suck marrow from bones.

Clearly, this person has mastered all the demonic techniques in the Nine Abyss Divine Realm and incorporated them into his own resources.

This person is, of course, nothingness.

Although he sensed the presence of Xu Xing and the others, his fist technique remained unchanged, while the demonic tide behind him surged and churned violently, condensing into a Dharma image a thousand feet tall.

This Dharma form is identical to nothingness, but its aura is far more ferocious and violent. As soon as it appeared, it caused the wind and clouds to change color and the sun and moon to lose their light. Only rolling black energy could be seen covering the sky and obscuring everything. It was extremely vicious and evil, just like the supreme ruler of all demons.

Yin Yue and the others had all heard that the reason why the ten evil sects of eight hundred years ago were called together was because their lineages came from the same source. If someone could master the ten lineages, they could combine them and condense a Heavenly Demon Dao Fruit, known as the "Original Sin Ancient Demon".

This Original Sin Ancient Demon, like the Crimson Copper Body and the Tathagata's Dharma Body, is a preliminary stage of refining the soul into a god, or rather, a prototype. Once it is cultivated, it is hoped that one can survive eight tribulations of lightning and condense the primordial spirit.

But now, Xu Wuyi has used pure martial arts intent to manifest this ancient demon of original sin, and has even endowed the ancient demon with a kind of spirituality unique to the primordial spirit. This is simply the method of the creator!

However, everyone was extremely certain that the other party had not cultivated any Taoist arts, but was a martial arts immortal who was completely integrated with his spirit and body, and had cultivated to a supreme realm that was almost unmatched by anyone.

Xu Wuyi remained standing atop the mountain, his face calm and serene, with a spontaneous joy between his brows. His aura was completely different from, even the opposite of, that of the demon.

This demon not only possesses the Dao achievements of the ten evil sects, but also exudes an aura of immortality and permanence, much like an immortal god-king, and symbolizes the end of the universe and the destruction of all things.

At this moment, the intent of the void fist reached a peak that no one could reach. Taiyue, the ghost immortals on his back, and even Yinyue all changed color. The momentum spread throughout the entire sixth floor, causing a stir of astonishment.

In the sixth level, there is also a group of righteous people who are survivors of the great war between good and evil. The Nine Abyss Divine Realm is easy to enter but difficult to leave, so these survivors took root there, multiplied and gradually expanded.

The current leader of these Taoists is one of the three remaining peak experts of the Seven Great Masters of the Righteous Path who were at the Sixth Tribulation stage in the past, and they are now known as the Taoist Ancestors here.

The three of them actually possessed such profound foundations that they could withstand seven tribulations of lightning. However, since there were no tribulations of lightning in the Nine Abyss Divine Realm, their cultivation levels could not be improved. Nevertheless, their magical power was several times stronger than before.

Even so, the three Dao Ancestors couldn't help but change color upon sensing this familiar demonic energy. They all awoke from their secluded meditation, their divine thoughts weaving a dense net as they communicated across the void.

Lian Yunzi's face darkened, and he said in disbelief:
"How could the Heaven-Splitting Demon Emperor have made such a breakthrough in this Nine Abyss Divine Realm? Could it be that he has already obtained the treasures in the Longevity Secret Realm?!" Eight hundred years ago, not only righteous people survived the battle, but also a group of evil old demons.

The Demon Emperor of Rending Heaven was one of the leaders among them. He single-handedly resisted the three Great Dao Ancestors. His magical power was so strong that it goes without saying.

Now that he sensed the aura of the Ancient Demon of Original Sin, Lian Yunzi's first thought was naturally of his old rival, the Sky-Splitting Demon Emperor.

Chen Xingzi then said in a deep voice:
"The Heavenly Demon Emperor's inheritance is missing the Heavenly Demon Dao Fruit, so it's impossible to complete the ten major inheritances, unless... he really obtained the inheritance of that person in the Longevity Secret Realm!"

The Heavenly Demon Dao Fruit is the inheritance of the Demon God Cave. In the past, the Demon God Ba did not go deep into the Nine Abyss Divine Realm to participate in this battle. Therefore, no matter how powerful the Heavenly Demon Emperor was, he could not complete his own Dao.

However, since the Demon God Ba was originally a descendant of Kong, it would be natural for the Heavenly Demon Emperor to have truly made contact with the first demon of all ages who has been sleeping until now and obtained the Heavenly Demon's inheritance.

Upon realizing this, the three Dao Ancestors were all utterly shocked. The only female Dao Ancestor among them, however, acted decisively and shouted:

"Even if the Heavenly Demon Emperor has mastered the Ancient Demon of Original Sin, he cannot undergo tribulation here. Without the difference in realm, with our abilities and the addition of Ancestral God Mountain, we may not be unable to subdue him."

"Moreover, if Kong Ruo truly escapes, how can we possibly survive? This time, we have no choice but to fight!"

Upon hearing this, Lian Yunzi and Chen Xingzi were both startled, knowing that what the female Dao Ancestor Yin Yunzi said was true. For them, the current situation was truly hopeless, and the only way out was to confront it head-on.

After all, compared to the demonic path, they do have a natural advantage. The righteous path had the upper hand in the war between good and evil back then, and after arriving in the Nine Abyss Divine Realm, they continued to expand their scale and had a large number of people.

It was precisely because of this that the three Dao Ancestors were able to collect precious materials from the Nine Abyss Divine Realm while focusing solely on cultivation, and jointly refine a war magic weapon called "Ancestral God Mountain".

If the three of them were to join forces to preside over the Ancestral God Mountain, they might even be confident enough to fight against the Creator who had undergone seven tribulations.

The few remaining old demons in the demonic path, although each of them is at the sixth tribulation level and even has the Heaven-Splitting Demon Emperor in charge, are weak and have to do everything themselves, so they naturally do not have such resources.

Even if the Heavenly Demon Emperor now condenses the true form of the Ancient Demon of Original Sin, the outcome against the Ancestral God Mountain is uncertain. If Kong Zhen truly escapes and arrives at the sixth level, the three of them won't even have a chance to struggle!

Before long, the Ancestral Mountain was activated. A divine mountain thousands of feet high suddenly descended from the sky and flew away to a place tens of thousands of miles away.

This sacred mountain is entirely of one color, emerald green and vibrant with life. In terms of sheer power, it surpasses even the "Sky City" of the Great Zhou Emperor and is practically on par with the Buddha's robe!
On the other side, Xu Xing stood firmly on the dragon's head, unmoved, watching this scene with a gentle gaze that held appreciation and even more satisfaction.

Although there are many powerful beings in this world, including supreme beings like the Longevity Emperor who are close to the other shore and have transcended the calamities of the era, Xu Wuyi is still the most special and the opponent that Xu Xing is most looking forward to.

Now it seems he certainly didn't disappoint me!
Xu Xing clapped his hands in praise and exclaimed:
"Brother Xu is indeed the most outstanding martial arts genius since the beginning of time, unparalleled in history and likely to remain so."

After condensing his own unique demonic form with his fist intent, Xu Wuyi turned around, opened his mouth and swallowed it into his stomach without showing any abnormality. He simply looked up at Mount Tai.

Apart from Xu Xing, although everyone else was in a superior position and had a natural sense of oppression, just looking directly into his eyes made them feel a jolt in their hearts, as if they were being looked down upon, scrutinized, and examined, not by nothingness but by themselves.

Xu Wuyi's gaze flowed like water, passing over everyone's faces before finally settling on Xu Xing. His gaze was calm, devoid of any demonic intent, and he simply smiled:
"Brother Xu has also entered the realm of ever-changing transformations. It was not in vain that I spent twenty years coming here to find you. You are very good, very good."

He then looked at the people on Taiyue's back, his tone calm, even somewhat friendly, and said sincerely:

"After Xu Xing dies in battle, I, Xu, will take good care of your disciples and have them pass on the great teachings to you."

“Especially this Brother Hong, I believe he can inherit your mantle and become my next good opponent.”

Upon hearing this, Yin Yue and the others, though knowing they were no match, couldn't help but feel angry. Hong Yi, though having mixed feelings towards Xu Wuyi, respected his teacher the most and couldn't help but glare at him angrily.

Xu Xing didn't take it to heart, and just laughed heartily:

"Brother Xu, your words are quite witty. In this battle, I don't want to kill you, I only want to defeat you."

Xu Wu frowned, then said seriously:
“Brother Xu, the path to enlightenment can only be proven in the loneliness of life and death. If we do not distinguish between life and death, how can we see the path to shattering the void?”

"You are the opponent I have ever valued most in my life. If you do not show a determination to fight to the death and unleash your full potential beyond your limits, I will not be satisfied even if I kill you."

Xu Xing smiled again:
"The great way is as deep as the ocean, and cannot be found in words."

These words were extremely to Xu Wuyi's liking, and he couldn't help but nod, then listened to Xu Xing's next sentence:

"It is only in my palm."

Xu Wuyi spent his life seeking the Dao and encountered countless top experts, including the father-like leader of the Panxing Star, Xu Yi, and the Immortal God King, the son of the Great Dao. However, even they did not possess the same aura as Xu Xing.

Although Xu Yi considers himself the Heavenly Father, in the eyes of the Void, his temperament is too superficial. Despite having the character "Yi" in his name, he does not understand the true meaning of change and impermanence. He clings to the position of leader and is not worthy of managing the universe.

As for the Immortal God-King, he is nothing but withered bones in a tomb, a decaying and rotten creature. Tens of thousands of years of imprisonment have long since eroded the supreme demeanor of this source of the Great Dao, leaving him only to hide behind the scenes and resort to underhanded tricks.

But Xu Xing was different. When he said this, he had a completely matter-of-fact expression, without any intention of using his position to pressure or coerce others; he was only sincere.

Xu Wuyi couldn't help but smile again, his gaze intense:

"Choosing Brother Xu as my opponent was definitely the right decision!"

Xu Xing met Xu Wuyi's gaze directly, his eyes devoid of any killing intent, only filled with gentleness, and simply said:
"There's still a month until the duel. Why don't we first enter the Immortal Realm, meet that number one demon of all time, exchange martial arts techniques, and then decide the victor?"

Upon hearing the name "Kong," Xu Wuyi was eager to try it out, uttering only a single word of praise before following Xu Xing deeper into the ninth level.

Just then, a divine emerald light suddenly shone in the distance. (End of Chapter)
