"If you want it, you’ll have to take it yourself."
An Jing stood up, the outer plates of the Taibai battle armor clattering down, blood at the corner of his mouth. At this mont, he felt as if his insides were burning, with the rampaging Spiritual Fiend flowing with extre violence.
—If not for his extraordinarily resilient ridians and body, he would have been knocked into Deviation or even on the brink of death by the Giant Centipede Dragon’s single strike.
Since he began cultivation, An Jing suffered countless severe injuries, but being struck into such a state solely by physical force happened only this once by the Giant Centipede Dragon. Indeed, it is worthy of being a Golden Core giant demon ford from the Kun Demon.
Fortunately, he was protected by the power endowed by three ancestors, safeguarding the core Tri-Pills. Now, as the Inner Breath Spiritual Fiend circulated, the ’Jade Mirror Floating Light Carrying Spring Color’ operated, quickly healing the damage, even returning the Taibai battle armor as if ti had reversed.
[If you don’t hand it over to yourself, then it holds no aning]
At this mont, on the head of the Giant Centipede Dragon, the Holy Demon illusion looked at the still fighting An Jing with great interest. It was quite relaxed, as two Golden Cores suppressed a re Purple Mansion junior. Even if this Purple Mansion had the blessing and protection of a Heavenly Lord or even a Heavenly Venerate, its true form was also a Heavenly Venerate, no matter what An Jing tried, how could he possibly overturn the situation? [Unless, of course, you’d rather die than comply]
It stood with hands behind its back, with endless demonic energy swirling, transforming into clouds, constantly spreading toward the distant sky in all directions.
[Then I’ll let you live, watching everything you fight for turn to ashes]
From the perspective of the Great Void, a section of the Divine Weapon Realm that emitted silvery brilliance had already been dyed black, and this blackness continued to spread endlessly, like proliferating roots, winding toward the entire Cave Void Break Flood Light Cannon.
—No way, do all of you Heavenly Demons have such classic lines?
Though knowing the urgency of the situation, An Jing almost laughed at the Holy Demon illusion’s words. He had read countless fantasy and Xianxia novels involving soldier kings in his past life. Characters uttering such lines were not a re few thousand. Every ti he thought, why doesn’t the villain just follow through and finish off the protagonist?
But once that amusing thought passed, An Jing started reflecting: "So this is the Heavenly Demon..."
Yes. Not because the Holy Demon was deliberately holding back, but because it was the most authentic Heavenly Demon. Thus, its primary goal was never to destroy the world, kill everyone.
Like in the Tianyuan Realm, those who first thought of destruction were never the Heavenly Demons but humanity itself. The Heavenly Demons, on the contrary, seek to ’lead everyone in this realm to fall,’ such is their nature.
Faced with a aningful, worthwhile target like himself, they truly prefer to waste their ti, just like those Great Heavenly Demons like Decay and Jiexin in the Huai Xu Realm. Compared to battling human strongn, they enjoyed hiding within humans, inciting discord, and sowing chaos to lead people to fall—whereas from the humans’ side, the fallen bitter silence only thinks all things should explode.
This is the true nature of a Heavenly Demon. Just as one would never give up on resisting in the face of adversity, a Heavenly Demon will also never forsake inducing and beguiling, never abandon converting soone into one of their own.
If that’s the case, then this is an opportunity.
Standing upright, An Jing looked up at the distant figure of the Holy Demon illusion, summoning endless demonic energy, infecting everything in the world.
The Immortal Path is like ink, whereas the Demon Path is the purest ink, or rather the most polluted wastewater with the strongest radiation. When it cos to vying for control over heaven and earth, even the Immortal Path is overshadowed, vulnerable to manipulation.
Under such circumstances, An Jing found it difficult to continue releasing the Four Seasons Magical Domain, easily eroded.
But to say the Heavenly Dao is powerless against this would be wrong.
Although at the mont the Holy Demon holds absolute advantage, with demonic energy filling every form between heaven and earth, An Jing keenly noticed a part of it that was different.
—Around the lting Sea, across the vast lands of the Divine Weapon Realm, an aura counter to the demonic energy occasionally emanated—a Breath of Pure.
That was the Mysterious Primordial Qi.
The Mysterious Primordial Qi he obtained previously after destroying the Demon Army and slaying the Demon General.
These Mysterious Primordial Qi on their own may not amount to much, rely quickening An Jing’s recovery a bit. In the current suppression of the Divine Weapon Realm’s laws, even gathering them is challenging.
Yet this signifies one thing, the ’Devouring Evil and Returning to Truth’ law within the Divine Weapon Realm hasn’t completely failed. Against the Holy Demon Illusion’s erosion, it still operates and contends.
This could be leveraged.
Beyond that, what other elents could be utilized to turn the tide?
An Jing’s thoughts raced like lightning. He never ceased contemplating the potential for victory, not even in the face of death or failure. At this mont, as a Huai Xu Martial Artist, his instincts led him back to Huai Xu, to his master.
Though he had been away for a long ti, the scene of Mingguang Dust Great Heaven’s Sanctification manifesting during his fateful mont, agitating the Complete Circuit cause and effect, burning demonic energy vigorously, was still imprinted in An Jing’s mory.
"Fate Pattern, cause and effect... I see!"
In that instant, a revelation dawned on An Jing—he understood how Huai Xu managed to ignite the demonic energy.
It was cause and effect!
If the Immortal Path is ink, craving pure ink and clear water for the purest ink, capable of writing and painting, then the Demon Path is polluted water, caring not for elegance or clarity, able to stain with whatever hue... and cause and effect then?
Cause and effect are like coal!
In the human realm, every thought and action from life intertwines countless fate threads, an entangled net forming a knotted clump growing ever more chaotic no matter how you try to understand—this entangled cause and effect through countless tribulations births ’demons’ from humans themselves!
Cause and effect, the sin of humanity, feared by gods or saints who keep a respectful distance. It pervades everything, contaminates all, unavoidable, inescapable. In a way, this is another type of demonic energy created by humans for themselves; once stained, one must walk through tribulation, passing only brings temporary relief, failing becos a dead knot anew.
The Huai Xu Realm relies on this intense cause and effect from the Martial Arts Seed People’s world, using this man-made terrifying pollutant to absorb the demonic energy, burning and destroying it, purifying the land of its demonic stain, restoring it to its original, primal state.
This is the truth behind the fated mont—through countless entangled causes and effects, capturing demonic energy, then purifying and restoring it through slaughter and destruction!
"If I trigger my destined mont, draw out an imnse cause and effect, perhaps I could briefly clear the Holy Demon’s demonic energy—not winning, but at least delaying it for a while!"
In this mont, An Jing’s mind was as quick as a flash. He swiftly discerned what his destined mont in the Tianyuan Realm could be: "It’s not the Seven Fiend Tribulation, rather it’s about spreading the Martial Arts, also regarding the cause and effect with the Nature Master’s side, or the Martial Arts Seed People technique obtained from the Taiming Sect, the Ex Nihilo cause and effect..."
The latter requires ti to diffuse and set up, unsuitable for now. But the forr doesn’t require everyone to cultivate imdiately; just informing everyone to ’open a different path,’ offering another possibility of cultivation for all things could suffice...
"Ha, whether it’s the ancestors, or Huo Qingnian Spring and the others, they are all outside, how perfect!"
An Jing laughed.
Perhaps... it’s ti for a grand Martial Arts Cultivation Technique sale!
