Simulation of the Heavens: Starting from the Age of Desolation

Chapter 179 Annihilating Demon Cloud Owl

In the Minghuo River Basin, which is extremely far from the Goddess River Basin, Zhou Yu once refined a secret realm, and his true body from beyond the realm has remained here ever since.

In the Minghuo River region, there is also a very famous star called Demon Cloud Star.

Demon Cloud Star is the lair of the "Demon Cloud Devouring Dragon" clan of this era, and also the place where the sixth tribulation realm powerhouse "Demon Cloud Owl" personally oversees the area.

The Demon Cloud Devouring Flood Dragon is, after all, an extraterrestrial life form without the protection of a living world. Therefore, apart from leaving a clone in the Black Demon Palace, the Demon Cloud Owl also attaches great importance to his lair, purchasing and setting up countless formations to enable him to exert strength far beyond his usual level within the lair.

However, the reason why Demon Cloud Star is famous is not because of its strength, but because the Demon Cloud Devouring Flood Dragon clan has a very high probability of producing raiders. Even Demon Cloud Owl himself joined the Black Demon Palace and became a raider.

In the Minghuo River region, countless lives have been plundered by the Demon Cloud Devouring Flood Dragon, hence the Demon Cloud Star naturally has a terrible reputation.

The sixth-tribulation realm expert "Dong Youmo" who gave Zhou Yu many treasures was willing to take revenge on the Demon Cloud Devouring Dragon clan at any cost because his wife was kidnapped and devoured.

At this moment, inside the Demon Cloud Star, a figure with twisted black patterns on its body was sitting cross-legged in a quiet room.

This is naturally Mo Yunxiao.

His true form is naturally not human, but when Mo Yunxiao comes into contact with many powerful figures outside, he gets used to transforming into human form.

"Another Seven Tribulation Realm expert has joined the River of Time and Space. When will I be able to reach the Seven Tribulation Realm?" Mo Yunxiao's eyes were filled with longing.

He wasn't very old, only a little over 20,000 years old, but he was already a top-tier sixth-level Tribulation Realm cultivator, and theoretically, he had a slight chance of reaching the seventh level.

"If we can use the treasures of the Black Demon Palace, our chances will be much better," Mo Yunxiao thought to himself.

For example, the deputy hall master, Nightmare Hall Master, broke through because of a treasure from the Black Demon Hall. Although this caused him to incur a great karmic debt, forcing Nightmare Hall Master to continue serving the Black Demon Hall, it was worth it, as it was the Seventh Tribulation Realm.

"My contribution is not enough, it's a pity that the opportunity to make a move at the Sixth Tribulation Realm is too rare..." Mo Yunxiao felt an impatience in his heart.

At this time-

"Ok?"

Mo Yunxiao suddenly looked at the void outside the Mo Yunxing Formation, where a figure had appeared at some unknown time.

"It's Zhou Yu!" Mo Yunxiao was startled.

Although Zhou Yu was just an ordinary sixth-tribulation realm cultivator not long ago in the eyes of many powerful figures in the long river of time, at this moment, he is undoubtedly a seventh-tribulation realm expert.

The gap between the Seventh Tribulation Realm and the Sixth Tribulation Realm is too great. Unless a Sixth Tribulation Realm cultivator becomes a subordinate of a Seventh Tribulation Realm cultivator, it is difficult for them to even see a Seventh Tribulation Realm cultivator normally.

The appearance of Zhou Yu, a powerful expert at the Seventh Tribulation Realm, outside Demon Cloud Star instantly made Demon Cloud Owl realize the seriousness of the situation.

Mo Yunxiao immediately got up to go out and greet him, but at this moment, a glint flashed in Zhou Yu's eyes.

boom!
Mo Yunxiao felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, and his true form lost consciousness.

At this moment, Zhou Yu reached out and grabbed, directly suppressing and capturing Mo Yunxiao's true form.

"Let's destroy this Demon Cloud Star too!"

With a single palm strike, Zhou Yu instantly reduced the entire star, along with all the Demon Cloud Devouring Flood Dragons within it, to nothingness. Due to the causal connection, all the Demon Cloud Devouring Flood Dragons that had clones outside also died instantly. Even the Demon Cloud Devouring Flood Dragons at the Fifth Tribulation Realm were nothing more than ants.

They didn't even realize what was happening when they died.

"Once the many Demon Cloud Devouring Dragons on Demon Cloud Star are destroyed, the karmic debt will be repaid." Zhou Yu had a vague feeling about this.

The promise he made when he received the treasure was to take revenge on the Demon Cloud Devouring Flood Dragon clan. Killing a sixth-level Demon Cloud Devouring Flood Dragon would be enough to repay the debt, as would killing a large number of weaker Demon Cloud Devouring Flood Dragons.

"However, this Demon Cloud Owl must also die." Zhou Yu had no intention of stopping. When he first left the Cangyuan Realm, the treasure of "Dong Youmo" had been of great help to him. Now that he was strong enough, Zhou Yu did not mind repaying more of the karma.

...

At this moment, at the headquarters of the Black Demon Temple.

Mo Yunxiao's clone here was also anxious, and he was extremely shocked and angry. He believed that he had never provoked Zhou Yu, but now, one of his clones was captured and suppressed. According to the cause and effect, all of his clansmen left on Mo Yun Star were also wiped out.

How could he not be angry?
Of course, Mo Yunxiao also understood that he, a mere sixth-tribulation realm cultivator, was no match for a seventh-tribulation realm expert. Not to mention, the worst-case scenario was that his clone was captured alive.

He was at the sixth level of the physical body realm, and he only had two clones. One was hiding in the Black Demon Palace, and the other was unable to move. That meant it would be difficult for him to travel to other places in the River of Time.

How can he make progress if he is confined to one place?

"Lord of Nightmare Palace"

Mo Yunxiao immediately contacted the deputy hall master of the Black Demon Hall. Mo Yunxiao was not only a member of the Black Demon Hall, but also had some connections with the Lord of Nightmares. At this moment, he realized that probably only the Lord of Nightmares could help him.

"It's Zhou Yu again." The Nightmare Palace Master frowned upon hearing the news.

First kill the Lord of Blackfire, then capture Demon Cloud Owl. What does that mean?
The Nightmare Palace Master quickly informed the Black Demon Palace Master of the news. The Black Demon Palace Master was also troubled upon hearing the news. Unlike the Nightmare Palace Master, he served as the Black Demon Palace Master to reap benefits. He was always ruthless and merciless towards those at the Sixth Tribulation Realm, but he would avoid offending those at the Seventh Tribulation Realm if possible. Needless to say, Zhou Yu was a relatively rare Seventh Tribulation Realm cultivator.

The Primordial Spirit Tribulation Realm is becoming increasingly rare as the tribulation process cannot be delayed. There are only a few Primordial Spirit Seventh Tribulation Realm cultivators, such as the Realm Ancestor and the Nightmare Palace Master. However, the Primordial Spirit Seventh Tribulation Realm cultivators are extremely difficult to deal with because they can each create nine Primordial Spirit clones, unlike the Physical Body Tribulation Realm cultivators who only have two clones.

Of course, although the seventh-level Nascent Soul cultivators were troublesome, the Black Demon Palace Master understood that since a member of the sixth-level Nascent Soul cultivator had had his clone captured and suppressed, he couldn't just ignore it.

If it's killed, that's fine; at worst, another one will be spawned, captured, and suppressed. But that can't be ignored.

“Nightmare, you have many clones. Go and find out the reason first,” the Black Demon Lord said. “Zhou Yu has risen too quickly. You’d better not offend him easily.”

Upon hearing this, the Nightmare Lord immediately understood that the Dark Lord didn't really want to get involved in this matter.

The Nightmare Palace Master didn't say anything more. He directly sent his primordial spirit clone with an Eight Tribulation Realm treasure.

He had some connection with Mo Yunxiao before, and if possible, he would still try to save Mo Yunxiao.

The Netherfire River Basin.

Zhou Yu continuously captured sun stars, refined them simply, and then released them into a starry sky.

At this moment, a vast array was rapidly forming in this starry sky. The array was chaotic, and ordinary experts could not sense its true nature. However, at the core of the array, it was clear and bright, and the power of cause and effect was much denser than that outside.

The clone of Demon Cloud Owl is right here.

At this moment, Mo Yunxiao had regained consciousness, but he was bound by a force and could not move, let alone commit suicide.

"What does this mean? Are they going to use an array to trap me here?" Mo Yunxiao asked, puzzled.

At this moment, Zhou Yu, who was setting up the formation, looked into the distance. With a thought, his primordial spirit clone appeared and stepped over.

boom!
Soon, a figure shrouded in mist emerged from the starry sky.

It was none other than the renowned Deputy Lord of the Black Demon Palace, the Lord of the Nightmare Palace.

"Zhou Yu, Mo Yunxiao shouldn't have offended you, so why are you suppressing his clone?" The Nightmare Palace Master asked directly, looking at Zhou Yu's primordial spirit clone blocking his way.

He had already questioned Mo Yunxiao and confirmed that Mo Yunxiao had never met Zhou Yu before, let alone offended him.

“He has never offended me; I was just doing this for someone else,” Zhou Yu said. “This matter has nothing to do with the Black Demon Palace.”

"Entrusted by someone?" The Nightmare Palace Master frowned slightly and said, "Explain yourself."

"I've made myself clear enough. This matter has nothing to do with the Black Demon Palace," Zhou Yu said calmly.

"Mo Yunxiao is an elite member of my Black Demon Palace. You say it's alright?" Nightmare Palace Master said coldly. "Explain your reasons. If he truly offended you, I will naturally give you face. But you want to suppress members of my Black Demon Palace for no reason. I'm afraid you don't have that ability!"

"Then come and try to take him away," Zhou Yu said calmly.

"Very well, then I'll test your newly advanced Seventh Tribulation Realm skills." The Nightmare Palace Master stopped wasting words at this point.

He wasn't the only one in the Black Demon Palace, but he might as well test Zhou Yu's abilities first.

boom!
The mist on the Nightmare Palace Master's face suddenly exploded, revealing a terrifying face. He also used his most proficient primordial secret technique, Nightmare Realm.

Boom!

Zhou Yu felt a force pulling at his consciousness, as if he were about to be drawn into a terrifying world.

At this moment, the Lord of Nightmare Palace also seized the opportunity to make his move, manipulating the Tribulation Realm Treasure to form a terrifying beam of light that pierced through billions of miles of starry river.

"Little tricks."

Zhou Yu calmly used his primordial spirit power to condense a chaotic palm, which directly grabbed the beam of light.

Boom!

His palm suddenly exploded, instantly crushing the beam of light and revealing the true form of the Tribulation Realm treasure.

"This is the rule of chaos? You don't control the rule of cause and effect?" The Nightmare Palace Master was taken aback.

He wasn't surprised that his Nightmare Realm had no effect, after all, the opponent was also at the seventh tribulation of the Primordial Spirit Realm, and his mental will was extraordinary. But it was astonishing that Zhou Yu could unleash a Chaos Rule technique.

"It seems that this is all you are capable of."

Zhou Yu was too lazy to explain; his eyes were already shining brightly.

Eternal Secret Technique - Eye of God Destroyer.

With Zhou Yu's incredibly terrifying mental fortitude at this moment, even if he were to casually unleash this move, it would be terrifying to the extreme.

Although the Nightmare Palace Master was at the seventh tribulation of the Nascent Soul Realm, he immediately felt as if his head was about to explode.

"what--"

The Nightmare Palace Master screamed in agony. Realizing the danger, he immediately put away the Tribulation Realm treasure and tried to flee.

But at this moment, an invisible force had already descended upon him along the path of cause and effect.

With no way to avoid it, the Lord of Nightmares now only had a fraction of his original strength left to resist.

puff!

In an instant, the Nightmare Lord's clone vanished into nothingness.

call!
Zhou Yu waved his hand and put away the Eight Tribulation Realm treasure left behind by the Lord of Nightmares.

Eight Tribulation Realm treasures are still very precious. Even if Zhou Yu himself doesn't need them, he can leave them in the Cangyuan Realm for future generations to use.

After dealing with the Lord of Nightmares, Zhou Yu went back to set up the formation.

At this moment, however, the river of time and space was somewhat boiling.

The actions of those at the Seventh Tribulation Realm are quite significant. In fact, the moment the Lord of Nightmare made his move, other Seventh Tribulation Realm cultivators sensed it.

Many powerful beings at the Seventh Tribulation Realm watched from afar, thinking it would be a fierce battle, since both were at the Seventh Tribulation Realm of the Primordial Spirit Realm.

Unexpectedly, the Lord of Nightmares only lasted one move.

To kill the avatar of a seventh-tribulation realm expert so quickly, in the entire river of time, probably only two half-step eighth-tribulation realm experts, the White Bird Pavilion Master and the Myriad Stars Heavenly Emperor, have the ability.

They are beings who have fully mastered the rules of time and space, but they have not created an eighth-tribulation physical body, so they cannot break through. However, their understanding of the rules is already at the eighth-tribulation level, so they can easily kill seventh-tribulation beings.

Unexpectedly, a third one appeared at this moment.

"Zhou Yu actually mastered two fundamental rules: causality and chaos, which are essentially opposite rules."

"Even a top-tier Seventh Tribulation Realm expert couldn't defeat the Nightmare Palace Master so easily. Zhou Yu's true strength lies in his Primordial Mystic Technique, which nearly rendered the Nightmare Palace Master powerless to resist."

"Yes, his elemental magic is simply too terrifying."

"If the primordial spirit can't withstand the seven tribulations, the physical body's seven tribulations are also in jeopardy."

Many powerful beings at the Seventh Tribulation Realm felt a chill run down their spines. Although the physical bodies of those at the Physical Tribulation Realm could greatly weaken attacks from the Primordial Spirit, they had to admit that their mental will was generally inferior to that of those at the Primordial Spirit Tribulation Realm.

Once subjected to such a spiritual attack, who could withstand it?
At this moment, all the Seven Tribulation Realm cultivators understood that another absolutely untouchable existence had been added to the River of Time.

Moreover, unlike the Heavenly Emperor of Ten Thousand Stars and the White Bird Pavilion Master, Zhou Yu is at the Nascent Soul Tribulation Realm, and can create more clones, each of which is extremely terrifying.

Inside the Black Demon Palace, the Black Demon Palace Master and the Nightmare Palace Master sat together in silence.

"I should have known better than to let you go."

The Lord of the Black Demon Palace finally spoke, though he was secretly relieved that he hadn't gone.

Although he is stronger than the Nightmare Palace Master, he has been focusing on comprehending the rules of time all these years and cannot be considered a top-tier Seventh Tribulation Realm cultivator. If he goes there, his fate will not be much better.

"No one could have predicted that Zhou Yu would be this strong." The Nightmare Palace Master shook his head and said, "It's Mo Yunxiao's bad luck to fall into his hands. As for me, I can just avoid Zhou Yu from now on."

As a dignified seventh tribulation realm cultivator with the protection of his home world, he has nothing to fear from anyone.

If you can't afford to offend them, you can at least avoid them.

"That's the only way," the Black Demon Lord nodded.

At this moment, their expressions changed simultaneously.

A terrifying force descended upon the Black Demon Palace along the path of cause and effect.

"It's Mo Yunxiao." The two moved instantly and arrived at the place where Mo Yunxiao was in seclusion. At this time, Mo Yunxiao's eyes had lost their luster, and he had obviously completely lost his life force.

"It's that same Primal Mystic Technique that just attacked me. He set up an array in that starry sky to maximize the effect of the causal attack." The Nightmare Palace Master now understood completely, and he felt a chill run down his spine.

Despite being a sixth-level Tribulation Realm being hiding in the Black Demon Palace, Mo Yunxiao was still killed.

"This primordial mystery technique was almost too much for even you to withstand. Zhou Yu, a top-tier seventh-tribulation realm expert who is skilled in cause and effect, also set up a special formation to deal with him." The Black Demon Palace Master shook his head.

It can only be said that Mo Yunxiao's death was not unjust.

The protection of the Black Temple is ultimately no match for that of the living world.

call!
With a wave of his hand, the Nightmare Palace Master turned Mo Yunxiao's body into dust. Without saying anything more, he turned and left.

P.S.: That's all for today.
