Chapter 307: Refining the Demon Lord as a Dao Anchor

Can I borrow your outsider identity?
What does it mean?
As soon as the doubt arose, Cheng Yu felt that his magical power seemed to be out of control and began to operate spontaneously.

The vast magical power flows and rotates, not only in the body, but also pouring out from all parts of the body, like strands of silk threads winding and wandering.

Practitioners in the Return to Void Realm have spiritual souls, indefinite appearances, and extraordinary methods that transcend ordinary practices.

In these three heavens, the body and spirit can be combined, and when they gather together they become form, and when they disperse they turn into a rainbow and become gas.

If there were no constraints from returning to the void, one could see the entire world and travel through the universe with just one thought.

It can be said that nature has spiritual power and the body and spirit can change at will.

However, at this moment, Cheng Yu felt that he could not control his body or his mind.

Even his own thoughts could only maintain a glimmer of clarity.

In the sea of ​​consciousness, runes sparkled brightly, drawing in infinite amounts of bright light from the infinitely high place and flowing throughout the body.

The light of great freedom!
The light of great transcendence!
It seems to have lit up from the beginning, explaining all the truth in the world!

With just one glance, he was captivated by it, unable to extricate himself, and couldn't suppress the feeling of great joy that arose.

The thread of clarity that was maintained with great difficulty seemed to be on the verge of degeneration and could be lost at any time.

All the changes are happening in the outside world, but it only takes a moment.

The swordsman had just stopped the big monk's action, but before the two of them could say anything, they felt a chill in their hearts.

Looking down, I saw the Demon Lord Cheng Yu standing still with one hand raised as if he wanted to do something.

Strands of thin and bright magical power extended from his body, densely packed and seemingly chaotic, but in fact in an orderly manner, forming a mysterious formation that was constantly intertwined and evolved into infinite possibilities.

The figure of Demon Lord Cheng Yu was hidden in it, just like a spider constantly spinning silk, or like a silkworm trapped in its own cocoon.

What's happening here?
Both the swordsman and the big monk instinctively felt that something was wrong.

The next moment, Demon Lord Cheng Yu, who was among the countless threads of magic power, slowly raised his head and looked at them calmly, his purple jade eyes extremely indifferent.

boom!
The soul felt like it had been hit by a heavy hammer!
What follows is the body, soul, magic power, spiritual perception, and even one's own "existence"!
Everything seemed to be a crazy warning, urging them to escape quickly!

But before he could react, he felt purple air rolling in front of him, rolling in from high above, from all directions, from all directions within his cognition, and a magnificent voice rang in his ears!
"The Tao was my beginning, the mysterious ancestor of all realms."

In the rolling purple air, a pair of eyes seemed to open, overlapping with the purple eyes of the Demon Lord Cheng Yu.

wrong!

Buzz buzz~!

The sword rang clear and melodious, carrying with it an incomparable murderous intent, as it cut through a line of blue sky and fell.

It started from a line, but in just an instant it extended and expanded, bright and brilliant, like the Milky Way rolling upside down and the light of the sky falling to the earth.

In the brilliant sword light, there was a tiny speck of dust as small as a mustard seed, but its power far exceeded that of the previous Buddha's light handprint!
At this moment, he no longer cared whether the incident would affect other parties and damage his merits.

The two of them only knew that the Demon Lord's current state was extremely strange, and they absolutely could not let him continue!

Click!

Cracks appeared in the void, revealing deep and bottomless darkness.

There were explosions in the air, the hall was collapsing, and buildings were reduced to ruins in the impact.

The mortal world was already weak in spiritual power and was much more fragile than the Filthy World and Taixuan Heaven. At this moment, it finally couldn't withstand the full-strength attack of the two and shattered.

However, facing the sword light and the Buddha's light handprint, Cheng Yu's expression did not change at all.

The densely packed magic power threads only stretched out two strands, extending and winding upwards, lightly touching the sword light and the Buddha's light hand print.

Call ~
The wind has stopped and the waves are calm.

Whether it was the brilliant sword light that was like the rolling river in the sky, or the Buddha's hand light that was as tiny as a mustard seed, they all dissipated the moment they touched the magic thread.

It felt like a delicate instrument whose most important supporting parts had been removed and damaged.

Everything returned to its most original spiritual energy, like a gentle rain, continuously falling on this huge capital city.

Cheng Yu looked indifferently at the two auras escaping into the distance and slowly raised his hand.

But in the next moment, the dense threads of magic power around the body began to show signs of abnormality.

raging!

The bright flames intertwined and stretched endlessly, igniting all the magic power threads in an instant!
However, it was Cheng Yu himself who, relying on the last bit of clarity, instinctively performed the method of "Refining Soul into Fire" that he had learned from the Taixuan Realm!
The fire of refining souls exists in reality, but it does not only exist in reality.

I saw the glittering purple runes in the sea of ​​consciousness and the infinite amount of bright light they attracted all burning.

The whole person seemed to be constantly twisting, as if to transform into an invisible and intangible shadow.

'Spirit Refining Fire'!
The bright light illuminating the sea of ​​consciousness gradually faded, and the shaky line of clarity gradually stabilized under the illumination of the fire...

He regained some of his ability to think, but when he realized that he had used the 'Refining Spirit Fire' method, endless regret suddenly surged in his heart.

This method of 'Refining Spirit Fire' was obtained by him from the Supreme Taixuan Heaven many years ago.

But after what he had done, he felt that he was not worthy of this supreme method, so he sealed it up and never used it again.

Even when he was severely injured and dying by Xiaoyu before, he never used it!

He had been a despicable person throughout his life, and had compromised too many times with many people, many things, and even with himself.

But only this one thing!

This is the bottom line he never wants to and is not willing to cross!

But today...

Before I could even feel the regret, a voice that sounded a little surprising suddenly rang in my ears. It sounded ancient and timeless, as if I had seen an interesting little bug.

"Ok?"

At the highest point in the universe, that incomparably majestic figure sitting at the origin of the extraordinary seemed to pay a little attention and looked over.

Distance is meaningless in front of it.

"The body turns into a shadow, the soul is refined into fire..." A murmured voice sounded in my ears. Buzz!
The runes that had been burned by the spirit refining fire and gradually lost their luster regained their previous shining appearance, and even the blazing spirit refining fire was extinguished in an instant.

Cheng Yu felt a wave of despair.

He finally realized it at this moment, realizing that everything before was just a casual arrangement, and only at this moment did he really pay attention to it.

The light was the fire and his body was the furnace. He was constantly changing, as if forging a magical weapon, trying to refine him into a—

Return to the origin anchor!

……

……

Outside the capital.

A streak of clear light streaked across the sky. Zhao Yueqing was fleeing for his life, burning his magic power as fast as it could be consumed, just to get away faster.

She groaned secretly in her heart.

I've been hiding in the capital of the mortal world, but I still encounter such a thing!

What bad luck!

She had sensed something was wrong as early as when the two Return to Void practitioners arrived in the capital.

Afterwards, the emperor inexplicably turned into the Demon Lord, and all the strange things he showed made her feel even more frightened.

Not only did he become like a spider, he also easily defeated the joint attack of the two Return to Void figures.

But what made her feel most uneasy was that calm and indifferent look...

Especially after seeing the two Fanxu statues turn around and run without hesitation after making a strike, she didn't dare to continue pretending to be a stone and gamble that she would not be discovered.

"May Master Hongzun bless you, Master Yuanjun bless you, Master Jianzu bless you..."

Zhao Yueqing was so sad that she wanted to cry but had no tears. She prayed in her heart and turned into a rainbow and flew away into the distance.

Even though she had escaped a long way, the oppressive and terrifying aura behind her still made her feel like a thorn in her back, without any sense of security.

She secretly decided in her heart that after returning this time, she must study a more 'robust' hiding method!

…………

Just before all the strange things happened in the capital.

Taixuantian, the entrance to the holy valley of ascension.

Chen Yan came here again accompanied by the old Taoist priest.

And after measuring his merits, he successfully passed through the pale golden light barrier and entered the valley.

This scene was directly seen and transmitted back by the spies and surveillance tools deployed by the major sects of Taixuantian and some practitioners.

The news was soon known to the vast majority of high-level practitioners in Taixuantian, as well as those who had entered the Return to Void Realm from the Taixuan Realm. They no longer hesitated and rushed towards the ascension platform.

In the valley, the distance could obviously be crossed in an instant, but Chen Yan still walked step by step to the ascension platform.

"Whoo~"

Letting out a long sigh, Chen Yan raised his head and looked up.

As a physical cultivator at the Return to Void Realm who had absolute control over his own body, his body was actually trembling slightly.

Ascend!

Ascension was just around the corner, and even he couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart.

tread!
Stepping onto the steps with flowing galaxy patterns, Chen Yan walked towards the highest point step by step.

Somehow, Xu Xing was surrounded by a cautious attitude, as if he wanted to please but was a little hesitant.

The will of the three heavenly realms.

Compared to the Tianyi of the Fuliu Realm who was like a bootlicker, offering away his honorable position for free, He seemed to be more "shy".

However, Xu Xing's attention was not on Him at all, nor on Chen Yan who was ascending the ascension platform.

Xu Xing's expression was extremely solemn, and the next moment he stood up and disappeared.

The world will of the Three Heavens was a little panicked, and the feeling of regret spread immediately.

but.

Even though Xu Xing's sword spirit body left, the ascension platform still started as Chen Yan reached the top.

The moment Chen Yan reached the top!

Whether in the Filthy World, the Mortal World, or the Taixuan Heaven, all living beings saw a jade scroll slowly opening from the sky, revealing the mysterious golden inscriptions engraved on it.

What followed was a huge sound that echoed throughout the heavens and earth and could be clearly heard by billions of living beings in the world.

"Chen Yan from the Three Heavens Realm has practiced for 895 years and achieved the state of returning to the void."

"Accumulate three thousand external practices, and the fruit of the Tao will be complete."

"You will be able to participate in the creation of nature and achieve enlightenment."

Billions of living beings looked up, and even the practitioners from the Taixuan Realm felt a sudden enlightenment when they saw this scene.

The jade slip manifests all phenomena within the world, which can be seen by all living beings. Its mighty and majestic voice spreads throughout the universe, echoing in the entire Three Heavens Realm.

Countless sacred golden lights sprinkled down, directly dyeing the clouds in the world into a brilliant golden color.

Amid the solemn and dignified chanting, golden flowers fell from the sky and golden lotuses emerged from the ground.

"The return to the void has not yet ended, and the road to immortality is endless. I hope those who come after me will do their best."

Everything is no different from the ascension in Fuliu Realm! (End of this chapter)
