The Peerless Tang Sect: Heavenly Heart Douluo

The Holy City of the Holy Demon Continent, after taking in Haoyue and Austin Griffin.

Yu Kong and Electrolux returned to the heart of the Magic Federation, an area that the Magic Federation had managed for nearly a thousand years.

And over the past thousand years, Yu Kong has transformed this place into a very special demiplane.

Countless magic arrays overlapped, maximizing the isolation from the world laws of the Holy Demon Continent.

Although it is still connected to the Holy Demon Continent, it is not completely overlapping, and the control is still firmly held by Yu Kong.

Meanwhile, the Holy Spirit Tower of Electrolux and the Mage Tower of the Universe, connected together, also stand here.

However, their true forms had already left the mage tower, leaving only the tower spirit to monitor all affairs of the continent.

At this moment, Electrolux and Yu Kong had already arrived in Huo Yuhao's undead world through the inter-world teleportation array set up by Yu Kong.

After completely leaving the space of the Holy Demon Continent, Yu Kong was finally able to relax, because all the preparations for the initial stage of the plan had been completed, and only the final step was needed.

Austin Griffin and Haoyue have been captured. Now all that is needed is for Huo Yuhao, as the master of the world of the dead, to analyze them using the power of his beliefs, so that the fundamental rules of the Holy Demon Continent can be deciphered.

"Elder Yi, just enjoy the experience later. This is the 'truth' of the world," Yu Kong said with a smile.

Meanwhile, he was casually sitting cross-legged on the ground, and the space where Yu Kong and Elex were located was not any of the nine planes of the original undead world.

Instead, it was a temporary plane created by Huo Yuhao alone, just like when the Silver Dragon King advanced to the Dragon God.

However, due to the evolution of the undead world and the enhancement of Huo Yuhao's own strength, the strength of this plane is now comparable to that of some advanced planes, even though it is only a temporarily generated plane.

Even Austin Griffin, who wields the power of destruction, and Haoyue, who controls the elemental forces, could not make a ripple in this situation.

After all, as the power they forcibly awakened gradually faded, their strength was now only at the quasi-god level, and it was constantly weakening.

"Roar! Where is this? Who are you people?!" Austin Griffin roared angrily.

He has now been freed from the combined seal of the five forbidden spells, but at this moment he has lost the ability to resist.

With only quasi-god level strength, coupled with being in another world, all his abilities were greatly suppressed. Now, only his thoughts and language remain normal, and he cannot exert any of his power.

Haoyue appeared even more helpless. With all his strength suppressed, his eight different heads were roaring incessantly, seemingly calling out to someone. However, due to the separation between worlds, his calls were destined to be in vain.

Preserving their thoughts and consciousness is for the sake of smooth analysis later.

At this moment, wisps of pitch-black energy emanated from the space, profound and extremely profound, resisting and extremely resistant.

This was Electrolux's first impression upon seeing these wisps of energy.

As these dark auras came into contact with Haoyue and Austin Griffin, wails echoed throughout the entire space.

At this moment, they felt their bodies, souls, and wills being gradually disintegrated from the ground up, and at the same time, their ability to control themselves was being lost little by little.

Yu Kong, who was standing to the side, explained to him, "These are the power of belief. These are the power of belief that belongs to 'me,' the power of belief that belongs to the 'original body.'"

"Mr. Yi, how do you think human existence needs to be defined? The physical body? Memories? Cognition? The definition by others?"

"In my view, what makes a person a human being is their self-awareness."

"The physical body is merely a vessel to carry the human soul, which is the container of consciousness. Consciousness is the core of a person's existence, while the opinions of others are insignificant."

"Human cognition determines human consciousness, and cognition is divided into three parts."

"The instincts that govern human beings, the solidification of consciousness caused by the body, such as the need for breathing to exist, are called the id, and this is also the greatest barrier that binds ordinary beings from mortal to god."

"If you want to transcend the mortal body and ascend to a higher level of existence, the first thing you must abandon and transform is this level of self. Otherwise, if the self and the divine body clash, the final result will be either the destruction and reshaping of the self or the destruction and disappearance of the divine body."

"Most of the so-called 'gods' are also deeply limited by this ego. They have adopted some tricks to use other people's perception of them, that is, the power of faith, to achieve their divine status."

"Then, through the feedback from the divine position, one can become a god in another way. Such a god will retain his original emotions and desires."

"But humans are called humans because they have emotions and desires. So if gods also have the same emotions and desires as humans, how can gods be called gods?"

"The second part is the components of personality. It is also a person's core cognition of their own existence. If a person's behavior patterns, thoughts, and memories all come from 'me,' but that person's body is not 'my' body."

"Is this person him or 'me'? Others may have different interpretations, but in 'my' view, this is 'me,' which is also called the self."

"In my view, the existence of the self is the most important thing in a person's consciousness, and a person who has lost his self is nothing more than a puppet to be manipulated by others."

"Those who are truly able to forge their own path, no matter how far or near their path may be, possess an incredibly strong sense of self. In contrast, those who follow the rules and follow the paths of their predecessors will eventually have their sense of self gradually assimilated by the former."

"Unless they can forge a new path, they will ultimately only become vessels for the consciousness of those who create new paths."

"The third part is called the superego. It is a third concept that gradually arises from the conflict between the ego and the id. It can also be called 'divinity'."

"The superego is the most ideal state, but it is also an absolutely unattainable level, because as long as the id still has needs and the ego still has pursuits, the superego will just keep hovering in front of you but will never let you reach it."

"Unless one is like a 'god' in the Holy Demon Continent, completely abandoning the self but leaving only a superego, what meaning does that have for a former 'human'?"

"Therefore, the power of 'my' belief comes from extreme ego emotions. It's just that this ego is too absolute, so much so that 'I' abandoned most of my true self at the very beginning of my spiritual journey."

"At the same time, it allows 'me' to approach the superego infinitely and almost zero, but without truly losing myself and becoming a puppet who has lost my self."

"However, there is a very interesting saying: 'Cultivating only one's nature and not one's destiny is the first ailment in spiritual practice. Cultivating only one's destiny and not one's nature will make it difficult for one's spirit to attain sainthood even after countless eons.'"

"Cultivation is 'fate,' while cognition is 'nature.' The level of 'nature' determines a person's self-assessment and whether they will lose control due to inflated power."

Similarly, the level of one's "destiny" determines whether you can put your will into practice in this world; a "surname" without "destiny" is just a castle in the air.

"It's just a pity that I don't have the chance anymore, because my 'sex' is now fixed, even distorted, and it's Him."

Yu Kongyao pointed calmly at the power of belief that was constantly invading Austin Griffin and Haoyue's bodies.

"It can't be said that I went astray, it's just that we followed different paths. After all, the environment in which my original body was initially located didn't allow him to move forward through normal methods. Only by taking an unconventional approach could he find a glimmer of hope."

"My path is now set. This path belongs to me, but I have inherited the memories of the original body. At the same time, I also know that this is not the path that the original body originally wanted to take."

"There's just no other way. Life is unpredictable. Since it's already happened, we can only keep going with unwavering determination. After all, as long as the road ahead isn't blocked, then this path is right, and then 'I' am right."

As Electrox watched the bright moon and Austin Griffin being torn apart and reassembled by the power of belief, he suddenly wondered what Yu Kong meant and why Yu Kong was telling him all this.

"I just want to tell you, Elder Yi, that with your wisdom and insight, you are only one opportunity away from breaking through the threshold of becoming a god, and becoming a god by creating your own path."

"But this step is very important. Don't make any mistakes. Even if it's slow, it doesn't matter. Don't lose your direction for the sake of temporary efficiency. Otherwise, even if you don't want to, you have to give up everything and keep going, just like I am now."

At this moment, Electrolux's gaze was gradually drawn to Austin Griffin and the bright moon.

The power of belief has reached the final stage in dismantling the fundamental rules of the world within Austin Griffin and Haoyue.

The mysteries and truths of the world began to gradually reveal themselves and spread out.

At the same time, Yu Kong stood up and walked towards the direction of that power of belief.

With each step he took, his body became more and more ethereal, until he touched the power of belief, at which point Yu Kong's body was completely shattered, and then reassembled.

The aura of a god, the aura of the supreme god, was clearly revealed on Yu Kong, and the seal that Huo Yuhao had placed on Yu Kong was lifted.

Since his creation, Yu Kong has been a god-level powerhouse, which is why he can use tenth-order forbidden spells with ease.

As their aura and power continued to grow and mature, the power of the fundamental laws of the world within Austin Griffin and Haoyue's bodies, under the analysis of the power of belief, began to pour endless insights into Yu Kong's body.

Lower-ranking gods, middle-ranking gods, higher-ranking gods, and god-kings.

With his strength and aura surging, and Huo Yuhao consuming the foundation and reserves of the Netherworld to empower Yu Kong, and with the blessing of a large amount of the world's primordial laws, Yu Kong successfully broke through to the peak of the God King level.

"Tenth-order forbidden spells are laws, controlled by lower-level gods, capable of manipulating the heavens and earth, and governing the laws of a region."

"The eleventh-tier forbidden spell forms the boundary, controlled by a mid-level god. It can penetrate heaven and earth and dominate an entire plane."

"The twelfth-order forbidden spell is controlled by a high-ranking god and can reverse the universe and travel between time and space."

"And I also saw how to deal with the Creator God: a thirteenth-order forbidden spell that integrates the power of spacetime and interferes with the laws of the universe! This is the thirteenth-order forbidden spell!"

In that instant, a vast amount of knowledge and understanding, in the form of a magical structural model, floated, collided, recombined, and decomposed around the universe.

Haoyue and Austin Griffin were completely transformed into a part of this knowledge, and were absorbed and deciphered by Yu Kong.

At this moment, Yu Kong's eyes also held a hint of coldness and ruthlessness.

As these concrete models of laws and knowledge overlapped and collided, accompanied by various changes, Electrolux's aura began to grow naturally.

In Huo Yuhao's world of the dead, there is naturally no influence of the laws and consciousness of the Holy Demon Continent, so it will not cause those who become gods to forcibly merge with the Dao.

A large amount of energy was generated from the outside when Electrolux broke through, and was subsequently absorbed by him. Huo Yuhao was helping him, but only Electrolux himself knew to what extent it could reach.

Lower-level god, middle-level god, upper-level god, and finally, Electrox barely reached the level of a god-king, but Electrox ultimately sighed helplessly.

"What a pity, what a pity. Although I can understand what a twelfth-order forbidden spell is, I cannot break through that final barrier. Perhaps this is my limit. To break through that last layer, it may take endless years of enlightenment."

"Don't worry, after we devour the God of Creation, we can use a world as resources to advance. Achieving this final step will not be difficult."

A grand sound echoed through the space.

At this moment, space began to gradually collapse and distort, and a pitch-black form composed of a vast power of belief appeared before Electrox and Yu Kong.

Electrolux was taken aback by the sheer size of the other's presence at first glance.

It's not the physical size that's enormous, but the size of its consciousness, even now that it has the foundation of a God-King.

However, Electrox also felt that when he saw Huo Yuhao's true form, his consciousness and soul were about to be assimilated by him and transformed into a new Huo Yuhao.

This is why Huo Yuhao didn't use his true form to meet Electrolux at the beginning; the difference in their life forms and existence is too great.

If they had met before Electrolux's transformation, Electrolux's other senses would likely have been instantly corrupted by Huo Yuhao's power of conviction, thus permanently losing their self-awareness. (End of Chapter)
