Pei Tu Gou
Chapter 898 I am Born!
Wuwu~
This was a dark place where the sun never shone. In this boundless, vast world, the color of blood was the only light.
Desolate, dilapidated, eerie, and strange.
Barren mountains, wastelands, decaying swords, corpses, and even magical artifacts were scattered and blown about by the yin winds.
Huhu!
The yin winds, carrying a strong corrosive aura, howled and slapped against his face, causing his hair to fly.
Lin Boxun sat cross-legged on a scarlet boulder, gazing ahead. A message visible only to him flowed at the corner of his eye:
Lin Boxun (Host)]
Physique: 999 Divine]
Divine Abilities: Heavenly Mandate Compass, Demon-Slaying Heavenly Blade, Ghost-Devouring Heavenly Blade, Immortal-Slaying Heavenly Blade, God-Slaying Heavenly Blade, Buddha-Extinguishing Heavenly Blade… Myriad Demon Division… etc.]
Source Power: 945687 points]
Evaluation: A thousand gods transforming into a dragon, the dragon soaring through the clouds, free and unfettered, the work of creation, an indestructible body. If this gate is not passed, you are but a crawling insect. If you pass this gate, you are a...
Big crawling insect!]
Whirr!
Blood flowed like an endless sea. As the waves rolled, countless demons seemed to wail mournfully, yet none dared to approach the shore.
This place was the Demon Domain.
Legend had it that this sea of blood was where all the resentment, hatred, and evil in the world converged, inhabited by countless demons, fiends, and even the legendary great devils.
It was said that the Demon Domain had been drawn here from beyond the heavens by this sea of blood, becoming the base camp for the Demon race, a force rivaling the God race.
Even in ancient legends, this was absolutely a place where the living dared not tread.
"Demon God, spare me, spare me…"
Beneath the boulder, a demon that resembled both man and beast whimpered and trembled. He was terrified.
He was the Demon King of the surrounding ten thousand li of the Blood Sea, once with countless demons under his command. But that was in the past.
Several years ago, this human-demon on the boulder descended upon this place. In just a few years, he had slaughtered himself and the demons neighboring him in the millions of li of the Blood Sea, leaving almost none alive.
Utterly savage.
"Hehe~"
Looking at the demons trembling in the Blood Sea, Lin Boxun's lips curled up, revealing a chilling smile: "The Demon Domain is nothing more than this!"
He was smiling, but there was not a trace of mirth in his eyes, only a profound and chilling coldness.
Since that beam of demonic light, descending from the sky and visible only to him, had struck him into the Demon Domain...
It had been nearly twenty years.
In these twenty years, the demons he had slaughtered could fill a sea of blood, and his strength had risen steadily, far surpassing what it had been by a billion times.
However, he felt no fondness for this place whatsoever.
"Foreign realm demon, cease your arrogance!"
Demonic voices thundered, echoing throughout this world. Hundreds of thousands of li of the Blood Sea surged and churned, and countless demons pushed the waves from the far reaches.
The endless waves soared into the sky, almost staining the dark firmament blood-red, an utterly terrifying sight.
"Heh~"
Lin Boxun seemed completely unconcerned, casually glancing at the small demon cowering beneath him like a sieve: "Do you recognize this demon?"
"He, he, is the master of this ten million li Blood Sea, the great 'Tu' Heavenly Demon King!"
The demon trembled even more violently, scared out of his wits.
The Demon Domain was a chaotic place, with no order whatsoever. Yet there was still a hierarchy, even more pronounced than in the Immortal Dao.
Taking this heaven-encompassing Blood Sea as its source, those who ruled over ten thousand li were Demon Spawn, those over a million li were Demon Heads, and only those over ten million li were Demon Kings!
And this Tu Heavenly Demon King was an ancient demon who had supposedly experienced the ancient turmoil. Although he had not cultivated into an 'Undying Demon God', he was already a giant Demon King who dominated his own territory.
Ten thousand years ago, he was already the master of this Blood Sea world!
Even in the ancient years, he was a great demon worthy of stepping into the 'Demon Saint Palace'!
Buzz!
Above the Blood Sea, a mass of scarlet-black blood clouds howled as it approached. From tens of thousands of li away, a deafening demonic sound echoed:
"In seventy thousand years, you are still the first human to dare to run wild in the Demon Domain! If you dare to come, be prepared to die!"
Rumble!
As the demonic sound roared, the waves stirred up by countless demons responded in kind, transforming into a scarlet demonic palm in the sky.
From tens of thousands of li away, it grabbed towards Lin Boxun, who was on the isolated island in the Blood Sea.
"A great Demon King, nearly at the level of Creation…"
Lin Boxun licked his lips, a greedy glint flashing in his eyes:
"It wasn't for naught that I spent half a year searching. Very good, very good…"
Before his soft words could spread, Lin Boxun casually raised his hand, and a point of formless yet tangible blade light burst forth, slashing towards the incoming scarlet palm.
Rumble!
The void trembled, the Blood Sea churned, and the scarlet palm and the blade light shattered simultaneously.
"Hmm?"
A sound of surprise came from within the blood clouds, and then the scarlet color spread.
Lin Boxun raised his brow and looked over, only to see a ferocious Demon King, several zhang tall, sitting imposingly on a throne cast from blood.
Behind him, demonic figures stood like a forest, all staring coldly.
"Felling Heaven Demon Blade?"
The Tu Heavenly Demon King coldly scanned the isolated island in the Blood Sea: "What demonic path do you follow? Where did you learn the Felling Heaven Demon Blade from?!"
The Demon King's heart jolted, filled with greed.
That blade light seemed ordinary, but in reality, it contained the power to slay immortals, and it was unusually fierce. And he recognized this blade light.
Seventy thousand years ago, a behemoth who had transformed from a demonized monster once wielded the 'Felling Heaven Demon Blade' to attack the clouds, fighting against the gods and Buddhas of the heavens.
His reputation outside the Demon Domain was not significant, but within the Demon Domain, his name was extremely great, and he had once been known as the number one divine ability of the demonic path.
"It's a pity that what you have is not the complete Felling Heaven Demon Blade, but the Demon-Slaying Blade!"
But immediately, an immense greed arose in the Tu Heavenly Demon King's eyes, and he laughed ferociously: "Quickly hand over the Felling Heaven Demon Blade, and this King may leave you with a complete corpse!"
The Felling Heaven Demon Blade had a great reputation in the Demon Domain, but it had already been lost seventy thousand years ago. The ones circulating in the Demon Domain today were all just parts of it.
Legend had it that the Felling Heaven Demon Dao was divided into nine blades, namely 'Killing People', 'Slaying Immortals', 'Slaughtering Gods', 'Slaying Demons', 'Dismembering Dragons', 'Extinguishing Buddhas', 'Killing Demons', 'Devouring Ghosts', and 'Felling Heaven'.
What this person used seemed to be just one of the blades, 'Demon-Slaying'.
Although the Felling Heaven Demon Blade was strong and unparalleled, and had once been known as the King of the Ten Great Divine Abilities below the Saint, it was divided into nine, losing its essence, and might not be that strong.
"Since you know the Felling Heaven Demon Blade, how dare you clamor against me?"
Lin Boxun's expression was chilling. Although he was surprised that this demon actually knew the great name of the 'Felling Heaven Demon Blade', he didn't care much.
He laughed coldly, with a hint of mockery: "I've long heard that the demons in the Demon Domain are all mad and obsessed, with little sense. It seems to be true now."
"You're courting death!"
The Tu Heavenly Demon King was furious upon hearing this. As his roar resounded throughout the heavens and earth, the throne beneath him suddenly burst forth with a tide of blood rivers.
The screams and wild laughter of thousands of demons, accompanied by countless rising banners, spread between heaven and earth.
Where the blood rivers flowed, it seemed that tens of millions of demonic troops rushed out, emitting ear-piercing demonic sounds, charging towards Lin Boxun on the isolated island like a torrent.
Rumble!
The demonic might was ferocious. From tens of thousands of li away, the Blood Sea around the isolated island had already boiled and exploded, soaring into the sky. The demons hidden within screamed and shattered one after another.
"Stupid demon, stupid demon!"
On the boulder on the isolated island, Lin Boxun smiled leisurely, his figure unmoved. Behind him, however, five fierce and exterminating blade lights had already leapt out simultaneously.
"You want the Felling Heaven Demon Blade? Then, I'll give it to you!"
Buzz!
At the instant these five blade lights appeared in the world, an indescribable terror had already permeated the heavens.
Centered on Lin Boxun, a hundred li, a thousand li, ten thousand li, and even the more distant Blood Sea, like frozen lake water, completely stagnated.
The demons hiding within, wailing and screaming, were silently and instantly stripped of all vitality.
"Ah!!"
The rolling scarlet torrent stagnated for a moment, and the demonic army laughing wildly within let out cries of incomparable horror.
"Felling Demon Heavenly Blade?! You, you actually control five of the Felling Demon Heavenly Blades?!"
On the throne, the Tu Heavenly Demon King felt an immense crisis rising in his heart, along with endless disbelief.
The demonic path in front of him had no Demon Domain aura, clearly coming from another world. How could he possess five of the 'Felling Heaven Demon Blades'?!
Roar~~~
Before a wild roar could spread, he had already stood up, smashing the scarlet throne with one foot, and boundless demonic power surged into the sky like a waterfall:
"The Great Demon Reaches the Heavens, Myriad Demons Slaughter Immortals!"
Boom!
Thousands of demonic shadows manifested above the long sky, and following the roar of the Tu Heavenly Demon King, they all swooped down, and the rolling demonic might tore apart the void, shaking the heavens and earth.
When the five blade lights had risen only a few zhang, they had transformed into a giant demonic god shadow standing tall and reaching the sky, swinging a heavy hammer towards the isolated island!
"Not bad divine ability, but unfortunately, the Felling Heaven Demon Blade is the bane of all demonic path divine abilities..."
Looking at the giant hammer smashing down like an ancient star, Lin Boxun felt a slight stirring in his heart, but it was only a slight stirring.
With a casual wave, the five divine blades behind him, which he had forged by killing immeasurable numbers of demons and monsters, also soared into the sky.
Whoosh!
In the next instant, the world went dark.
Even the Tu Heavenly Demon King, as strong as he was, only felt a chill in his heart, and his five senses disappeared instantly, and he lost all perception of the outside world.
He only felt that at the instant the five divine blades took to the sky, it seemed to have completely slain all tangible and intangible things in the world, as well as the void and the light.
"This, is this the Felling Heaven Demon Blade?"
The Tu Heavenly Demon King's heart turned cold, and he only felt an indescribable fierce blade light disregard everything and directly act on his body, and even his soul.
Irresistible, unavoidable.
He could only take it head-on.
He could only die!
So fierce?!
His heart shook, and he opened his mouth to speak, but he was shocked to realize that even his voice had been completely slain.
Whoosh!
In the next instant, the blade light disappeared, the scarlet color reappeared, and a torrent of blood river rolled down, slapping into the boundless Blood Sea, splashing countless waves of blood.
"Huff!"
As the blade light returned to his body, Lin Boxun closed his eyes, and a long-awaited roar echoed in his mind:
"A thousand gods transforming into a dragon, millions of Source Power, help me break through!"
In an instant, scenes of decades of struggle in the Blood Sea and endless slaughter flowed and flashed in his heart.
In these decades, he had committed too many killings, so many that he couldn't even remember them all. Finally, at this moment, he could step onto the path of immortality.
Rumble!
It was as if thousands of stars were exploding in his mind, and endless power spread from his mind, quickly and accurately spreading throughout his limbs, bones, and even every subtle place.
In this instant, Lin Boxun only felt his strength climbing steadily, as if there was no end to it.
And his will was also infinitely strengthened, infinitely elevated!
In a trance, he only felt as if he had risen to the highest point of the Demon Domain.
Then, he saw a pair of eyes that were higher than the highest and bigger than the biggest.
Indescribable, unspeakable,
Gaze.
"That is..."
Lin Boxun's mind was agitated, and an infinite sense of terror arose. Without the need for words, without the need to see, just a pair of eyes, and he had already recognized this existence.
The Supreme Heart Demon, the Great自在Tian魔(Great自在Heavenly Demon)...
In legends, there was infinite incarnations, endless demonic might, and boundless strength, the king of demons, the master of the Demon Domain.
Demon Saint!
In the next instant, endless darkness descended, completely submerging him.
"No, no!"
In the last moment, he heard a indifferent and ruthless, yet mocking, demonic sound, resounding in his mind, in the Blood Sea, and in the entire Demon Domain:
"I, am born!"
