Chapter 389: Formless God Demon

The power of the Formless God Demon suffused him, making Lin Chuan feel superior to an immortal.

No Wangxian Realm, however great, can match him.

Likewise.

"At least in that reincarnation during the Heavenly Demon Chaos, I was the first Wangxian in all the heavens and earth, profoundly influencing the later ages."

Even as a Wangxian, the weight varies completely across different eras.

Heavenly Demon Chaos belongs to the early ancient era when heaven and earth had not yet fully formed; even Heaven's Will could not fully sustain the operation of worldly rules, requiring reliance on the Heavenly Dao Divine Office to guarantee stability of heaven and earth.

At that time, the Wangxian Realm possessed the qualification to negotiate with the Heavenly Dao.

Otherwise, it could not make the three great Heavenly Dao vows.

The three great Heavenly Dao vows he made still influence this world today; this is the deterrent power of the early ancient-era Wangxian Realm.

Lin Chuan, having reclaimed the power of the Formless God Demon, even forces some Heavenly Dao Rules to yield to him.

At this moment, he is the absolutely invincible Wangxian.

In an instant, Lin Chuan could feel countless gazes probing, but all were blocked by him.

"Everyone, I will only do what I must; please make it convenient for me."

Lin Chuan transmitted his voice to the onlookers.

Now is the pinnacle of the ancient era; many have ascended to the Immortal Realm, yet even the immortals must give him face.

Swish!

Lin Chuan's figure vanished on the spot.

With a single step, he left the Mortal Earth and entered the Star Realm.

Another step, and he set foot in the Star Ring Realm that guards living beings, also the main battlefield against Black Mist invasion.

Lin Chuan's thought dispersed.

Very quickly he located the area where Cloud Town Mountain lies.

The region defended by Cloud Town Mountain was being assaulted by countless shadow beings, and the first line of defense there had already been breached.

The shadow beings in the starry sky, like hunters spotting the most delicious prey, surged madly toward that breach.

If all three breaches are opened.

Then the shadow beings will enter the Star Ring Realm, likely triggering a chain of reactions.

In ancient history, shadow beings have rushed into the Star Ring Realm several times, each time causing massive calamities.

Once, they were almost able to breach the two realms of living beings.

If that were to happen, it would be a cataclysm for heaven and earth.

In future dream‑reincarnations, the An Ying Zhu will assimilate the entire world—a prime example.

Lin Chuan flickered once and arrived at the area of Cloud Town Mountain.

Swish!

The invisible Soul Sword swept across, annihilating countless shadow beings, and the Living Being Purification Grand Array deep within the Star Ring Realm lit up.

Worldly cultivators can only defeat shadow beings, not eradicate them completely.

Only the Living Being Purification Grand Array can devour shadows, transmuting them into another substance—Chaos matter—to replenish heaven and earth.

"Hmm? Someone came to aid?"

Cloud Town Mountain, locked in battle with shadow beings, was startled: "Such a powerful aura— a Demonic Dao Cultivator?"

"The Demonic Dao Cultivator actually comes to reinforce?"

"How strange."

Even though they are all living beings of heaven and earth, most Demonic Dao Cultivators are profit‑driven and will not set foot on the Star Ring Realm battlefield unless absolutely necessary.

"Not right."

Cloud Town Mountain sensed the aura growing stronger: "Is there such a strong one among the Demonic Dao Cultivators?"

As countless shadow beings fell, he finally saw that figure clearly.

The figure, cloaked entirely in a blood‑red cape, had no visible face or features, yet wielded an extremely bizarre power,

as if even this heaven and earth were yielding to its force.

"Which reclusive old demon has emerged?"

Cloud Town Mountain grew wary; Demonic Dao Cultivators are too reckless, perhaps they intend to open a breach in the Star Ring Realm to let shadow beings pour in.

Lin Chuan slaughtered madly.

At that moment, the Divine Cocoon on his hand stirred again.

"Are you hungry again?" Lin Chuan said with a helpless laugh, "Now is not mealtime; we'll talk after this battle is over."

The Divine Cocoon writhed, conveying a thought to Lin Chuan.

"Do you want to eat shadow beings?"

Lin Chuan was startled.

The Divine Cocoon released a yearning emotion.

"Are you confident?"

Lin Chuan asked, absorbing shadow beings is no joke; a slight misstep could lead to assimilation.

It has always been shadows devouring living beings; never seen a living being devour shadows.

The Divine Cocoon writhed again.

This time, it expressed a disdainful emotion.

Lin Chuan was delighted; if the Divine Cocoon could devour shadow beings, the ensuing situation would be greatly favorable, sparing him much trouble.

The chance of completely eradicating Black Mist will increase dramatically.

Going all out.

Lin Chuan let the Divine Cocoon attach to his hand and seized a shadow life.

The Divine Cocoon writhed, and the shadow dissipated.

Lin Chuan could clearly feel the shadow life being devoured by the Divine Cocoon, instantly refined, and transformed into pure life breath.

Go, Lü Ya, make progress.

What is the strongest, most unsolvable aspect of Black Mist?

It is that it is hard to be killed.

Even though the Grand Array of Living Evolution can suppress Black Mist, the Grand Array itself is restricted, cannot move, and can only exist within the Star Ring Realm.

This makes it unable to truly threaten Black Mist.

If the source of Black Mist is not eradicated, killing countless shadow lives is useless; Black Mist can continuously create shadow life by devouring energy from the Chaos Universe.

The emergence of the Divine Cocoon is the greatest opportunity to completely eradicate Black Mist.

Lü Ya, today I'll let you eat your fill.

Lin Chuan gained momentum.

The Divine Cocoon's power can also feed him back, making his Physical Body further solidify, better suited for an ultimate Tribe of the Spirits.

Thus, he has hope of attaining a flawless dual Dao.

If he truly can, he need not enter the Fifth Layer of the Immortal Realm; the Fourth Layer suffices for him to completely eliminate Black Mist.

Even the Third Layer can contend with it.

Under Lin Chuan's frenzy, the shadow lives in this breach of Yun Zhenshan grew fewer and fewer.

Daoist Friend, thank you for the rescue.

Yun Zhenshan felt conflicted; given the opponent's strength, killing him would be too easy. Though both aspire to become Immortals, he and the person before him have a fundamental gap.

The other party truly guards this realm sincerely, and is not as bad as he imagined.

No need to thank me; I am merely doing what must be done.

Lin Chuan almost slaughtered all the shadow lives in this area, and even felt an urge to chase them out.

But the Formless Deities' Reincarnation Reflection Card was nearing its limit.

He could only choose to give up.

Lin Chuan wondered, "If Yun Zhenshan now returns to Cloud Kingdom, would that prevent the coup in Cloud Kingdom from occurring?"

If that were true, Xiao Qingmei would be unable to ascend to the pinnacle by cultivating the Qi Yun Method.

Shall we have Yun Zhenshan cooperate and act out a scene?

After much deliberation, Lin Chuan still decided to let the altered events develop along another fate line.

What it will become remains unknown.

That is the unknown, and also hope.

It is better than a deadlock that never changes.

Having resolved the battle, the limit approaching, Lin Chuan concealed his aura and left the Star Ring Realm.

Before the Formless Deities' power vanishes, he still has one final task to complete.
