Chapter 108: Victory Through Burning Everything

Come back! Come back! Come back!

Warriors who fight to protect the world, come back!

In the name of the Six Paths Reincarnation, I order you to come back!

Mu Yi raised his arm, and a crimson pillar of light shot up into the sky, as if it would pierce the heavens.

As if war drums were beating, the scene Mu Yi had seen when he once received the Iron-blooded Slaughter inheritance appeared within the Reincarnation Barrier.

A drop of blood fell from the Six Paths Barrier, followed by countless drops of blood turning into a rainstorm that surged toward the Six Paths Barrier.

Countless souls awakened under the crimson cleansing, and hoarse, angry roars echoed within the Reincarnation Barrier.

Wielding a ferocity like that of a demon, the Holy Warrior leader, his whole body bathed in crimson blood-light, stepped out from within the Reincarnation Barrier.

Demon!

He let out a hoarse, chaotic roar, his eyes filled with killing intent locking onto the fallen soul·Bi Luo Si·Kandela.

The circulating Six Paths Barrier completely turned blood-red; within the deep crimson, countless blood-red figures suddenly walked out.

Not only the soldiers who died in the Second Defense Zone, but also the souls who perished in the First Defense Zone returned under the veil of the Reincarnation Barrier, struggling to crawl out from death.

Using hundreds of thousands, even millions of souls as pillars, they returned to the mortal realm once more in the form of spirits.

The crimson light devoured the corpses and souls on the ground, not even sparing the remains of the Abyss Demon; everything on the surface was consumed by the crimson light emanating from the Reincarnation Barrier.

They screamed as they flew into the Reincarnation Barrier's devouring, rushing like a tide toward Mu Yi at the barrier's core, while the troops behind Mu Yi merged their breath with his, becoming a gigantic torch.

All resentment, pain, and chaos were dispelled by the scorching of the Blazing Fire; they turned into the purest souls that entered Mu Yi's body to grant him power, expanding the Six Paths Barrier further.

And all negative emotions dispelled by the Blazing Fire, under the turning of the Six Paths Barrier, became the power of the dead spirits, walking out once more from within the Reincarnation Barrier.

Wearing ferocious armor and holding a already broken great sword, Wei Ke Duo·Ke Li stepped out from the blood-red barrier, his whole body now smeared with fresh blood.

"Hahaha! I never expected to appear here in this form!" Wei Ke Duo·Ke Li stared at Bi Luo Si·Kandela; just a few seconds ago, he had died miserably at the other's hand, and now he has returned.

Long time no see, demon!

Grinning wickedly, he raised his broken great sword, Wei Ke Duo·Ke Li roared as he launched another assault at the legendary demon; his soul had already entered reincarnation, and what remained now was nothing but endless fighting spirit and the lust for slaughter.

Within the barrier, crimson figures continually emerged; without exception, they were mad and bloody, not human, not souls, merely Asuras.

After having their original souls stripped away by the Six Paths Reincarnation, they had already lost perception and trace of reality, leaving only the purest obsession, an endless war.

The Six Paths Reincarnation spun wildly, while Mu Yi stood towering at its center; as tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions of souls merged, the barrier spun faster and faster, becoming ever clearer under the world's gaze.

"I see all beings, forever fighting, harboring suspicion, fond of battle, they are called……"

Mu Yi's voice paused for a moment, then erupted with a thunderous roar.

"Asura Path!"

"Crush them, let blood flow like rivers!"

Mu Yi bellowed the command, tens of thousands of crimson Asuras roared as they charged at the demon, the Blazing Fire burning on their bodies, as if to dispel all darkness.

The army formed by low-level demons was easily torn apart by the crimson Asuras; scattered transcendent demons could not escape their fate of death, and the crimson Asuras unleashed a gratifying slaughter.

The power of hundreds of thousands of souls bolstered the crimson Asuras; the dual military formation based on the Yuan Yang Formation was perfectly exerted at this moment.

Everything in reality let Mu Yi's understanding of military formations reach a higher level.

Cloud Energy is the union of essence, energy, and spirit; military formations are the means to mobilize essence, energy, and spirit; fundamentally, this is all about gathering the power of all beings.

Whether will, energy, or even the body, all can become the foundation of a military formation.

And at this moment, millions of powers lie within the barrier; Mu Yi can only mobilize a portion to bolster the crimson Asuras, but this is already enough.

The crimson Asuras slaughtered frenziedly; wherever they passed, no living cries remained, only an endless stream of souls being drawn into the Reincarnation Barrier to become a source of power.

The Six Paths Reincarnation, operating at an inconceivable speed, cast these Abyss Demon souls into the Blazing Fire, then split them in two; the brilliant souls entered Mu Yi's body, while all negative emotions were poured into the crimson sea.

The crimson Asuras grew at an inconceivable speed; dead Asuras continually walked out from the Six Paths Reincarnation barrier, like the undead, continuing to pour into what seemed an endless war.

The dark purple tide was gradually devoured by the crimson tide.

Even the divine avatars in the heavens widened their eyes, feeling it unbelievable.

"This power should be the military formation of Jiuzhou's strategists? But this barrier?"

The avatar of the War God hesitated, looking toward others; he had encountered strategists, studied the military formations of Jiuzhou through the system, and gained many unprecedented war powers from it.

Deities are not stubborn fools; any power they can possibly absorb becomes part of their learning.

But now he doubts whether he truly studied Jiuzhou's military formations; why does it feel so unfamiliar?

There is a hint of Jiuzhou's so-called divine will system, yet it seems completely different; the War God fell into contemplation.

"It is the Reincarnation Barrier! That lich back then died by this very means!" The death-system deity mused, speaking of something even the gods find hard to forget.

A lich who had already completed apotheosis was tortured to death, making one unable to forget even if they wished to.

As fellow death-system abilities, the death-system deity saw more in the methods of the Lord of Mount Tai; the portion concerning life and death reincarnation benefited them all.

"No matter what, he is now on our side! You all know the style of Jiuzhou's gods; don't entertain unnecessary thoughts!"

The Earth Mother Goddess warned the other deities, saying she did not want, while dealing with the Abyss Demon, to also face another unreasonable gang; there are enough troubles in the Multiverse, no need to add more.

"Those over in the Abyss certainly won't think that way!" The War God's gaze fell upon Mu Yi: "Luo Si seems to have begun entertaining other thoughts!"

"Perhaps we can use Jiuzhou's power to strike the Abyss's demons?"

"Let's keep watching; perhaps today we will witness the birth of a legendary story!" The Earth Mother Goddess neither objected nor supported, merely brushing past the topic, she furtively glanced toward the void.

Feeling the Earth Mother Goddess's gaze, two figures standing in the void broke the silence.

"It seems we've been discovered, huh? Earth Mother Goddess? This network truly is a wondrous place; otherworldly deities aren't all as weak as we once encountered; perhaps we should let the juniors participate more in the future!"

"What the mistress says!"

"Your eye is good; this little fellow indeed has the favor of Heaven's Dao, grasping reincarnation with a mortal body, though it seems not only you, but even those of Spirit Mountain have taken a liking to this little fellow."

"However, it seems winning still poses some difficulty, being unable to integrate all powers, which is also tough on him."

"Since you've come, then lend this little fellow a hand; let's form a good karmic bond!"

"What the mistress says!"

You still can't let go of the past! If not for that, how could you be stuck here, making no progress?

The figure called Niangniang paused, shook their head, didn't continue speaking, and lightly pointed a finger.

Even the Six Paths Reincarnation is naturally under my jurisdiction!

The impact of millions of souls had already left Mu Yi on the verge of losing consciousness, a power he could not bear.

With the power of the gods and the grace of this material world, he moved the power that did not belong to him into this world.

But among all this, the weakest link was, on the contrary, his will, which he excelled at.

His will was very strong, but integrating millions of souls was, for him, nothing short of a fantasy.

He could use these souls' united hatred of demons to open the Asura Path, which was already his limit; he didn't even know how to proceed further.

The crimson Shura are strong, able to reverse the demon tide's impact and slaughter low-level demons to push them back, but against a legendary demon...

Even a heavily injured legendary demon is not enough.

Considering Mu Yi's methods, the legendary demon guarding the Dark Gate frantically waved its weapon, scattering the endless Shura.

The crimson Shura that could go in and out seven times among low-level demons were, before a legendary demon, nothing more than harvestable weeds.

However, the legendary demon grew increasingly palpitant, not knowing why, it always felt fear, and the source of that fear lay in Mu Yi's direction.

But he dared not leave, as the Dark Gate continued to expand, and before high-level demons capable of standing equal to the crimson Shura emerged, he could not leave.

Even in death, he must protect the safety of the Dark Gate; that is his entire mission.

If he fails, even if he can be reborn in the abyss, he cannot imagine how terrible the torment he would endure would be.

He could only watch helplessly as Mu Yi caused trouble; if he had another chance, it would absolutely not allow the succubi and bull-headed demons to die, for even if only a single high-level transcendent demon existed now, it could completely turn the tide.

Within the rapidly cycling Six Paths Reincarnation Barrier, millions of souls emitted their own fluctuations, as if millions of people were speaking at once.

Even though he is now a spirit, Mu Yi's seven apertures still began to bleed; bearing millions of souls, for him now it is nothing but a nightmare.

Even with the support of his comrades' souls in the camp, the chaotic soul fluctuations left Mu Yi unable to find a common node; he exerted all his strength to search, yet felt himself about to be lost in the endless clamor.

Thud!

Mu Yi froze; he heard the drumming.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

As drumbeats like a heartbeat sounded in his ears, Mu Yi's lips curled into a delighted smile; he had found it!

In that instant, Mu Yi linked the wavelengths of millions of souls, and millions of souls began to cheer in unison.

In an instant, Mu Yi's soul began to resonate with the millions of souls, an unprecedented soul resonance; millions of souls resonated at the same rhythm.

All the crimson Shura turned into a crimson tide and flowed back into the Six Paths Barrier.

"Demon, go die!"

Mu Yi raised his head and reached his hand toward the void.

Accompanying Mu Yi's pull, the spiritual essence of heaven and earth within a radius of several hundred miles gathered toward the Six Paths Barrier.

A colossal phantom of Mu Yi began to coalesce, with the Six Paths Barrier as its core.

"Slash!"

A scarlet giant blade appeared in Mu Yi's phantom's hand, a blood-colored blade over a hundred meters long exuding a bloody aura, as the crimson Shura roared upon it.

The next moment, millions of souls, guided by Mu Yi, surged into the blood-colored blade, while the blood-colored blade, under the sway of Mu Yi's phantom, slowly rose and slashed toward the legendary demon and toward the dark gate that seemed able to devour everything.

"No!" the legendary demon glared, burning itself as the price to let the soaring black light pillar rise once again,

expending all its demonic power in an attempt to block Mu Yi's attack.

"Boom!"

The blade fell, and the blood-colored blade reduced everything to nothingness in oblivion.

In silence, the blade imbued with the angry will of millions of souls traced an arc, as the earth and heavens simultaneously shattered.

The legendary demon and the dark gate vanished completely under this strike.

The full-force strike that burned millions of souls could not be resisted or blocked; the legendary demon bound by the dark gate turned into a pile of ash devoid of any vitality.

In that single blow, it had already died completely.

When the blood-colored blade silently collapsed into crimson light, the Six Paths Reincarnation Barrier began to fade bit by bit, and Mu Yi's exposed form also began to vanish little by little.

Gazing at the meteor streaking across the horizon toward him, Mu Yi closed his eyes.

He did not disappoint everyone's expectations; although he paid the absolute price, he ultimately led everyone to final victory.

……

Mu Yi was sent back to the material realm of the main world by the Net; if not for the special nature of the Six Paths Reincarnation Barrier, at the moment his body shattered earlier, the Net would have already judged him dead and sent him back to the material world.

However, even though the Net had repaired his soul, Mu Yi lay motionless on the bed, now in a 24-hour state of soul weakness.

The feeling of death is never wonderful, but Mu Yi now feels quite peculiar; having stepped into death and been reborn in the main world, this sense of life-and-death reincarnation makes him feel rather marvelous.

But what truly lets him lie around listless is the state of soul weakness; he now feels as if he had stayed up ten days and ten nights straight, his body completely drained.

That weakness, like a bone-eating maggot, makes him miserable to the point of being unable to move.

Mu Yi stared blankly at the ceiling, then suddenly reached out his hand.

"I will definitely become stronger! Next time! I will absolutely not repeat the same mistake!"

In his state of soul weakness, Mu Yi made a firm oath.
