A seven-colored peacock spread its tail, on each feather, countless eyes shimmered with divine light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Numerous God Beasts roamed around the outer perimeter of the palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the palace, a young boy was carefully wiping the lamps of life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were hundreds of them, flickering dimly, densely packed together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, the boy turned and saw that one of the lamps near the top had dimmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its flame was fading, on the verge of going out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Holy Progenitor! Holy Progenitor!” the boy cried in fright and ran out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He arrived before a grand hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hall had no doors, it was a sealed chamber, like a jade tower engulfed entirely in immortal mist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mist was so thick that every step sent waves of immortal energy swirling through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Holy Progenitor, something terrible has happened! Uncle Smasher’s life lamp is dimming, it may soon go out!” the boy shouted, kneeling before the hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Where did Demon-Shattering Heavenly God go?” After a moment of silence, a majestic voice resonated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The voice was ethereal and vast, seeming to come not only from the hall but from every direction, filling the heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t know,” the boy replied quickly. “We would never dare question Uncle Smasher’s movements.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do not panic,” the voice said calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, the Grand Dao’s power descended from the heavens, infinite and profound, manifesting countless daos within the infinite void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though no one could be seen inside the hall, endless immortal mist gathered, swirling like a storm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, suddenly, the mist dispersed under the force of Dao’s will, and an image appeared in midair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Around that image, one could faintly hear the river of fate flowing endlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The image shifted, Demon-Shattering Heavenly God appeared within it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was like a mirror, replaying his final moments before vanishing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was sitting cross-legged in meditation when, all at once, he spat out a mouthful of blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Frowning slightly, he murmured, “The Demon-Sealing Tower has been broken.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He rose, his aura immense, and with one hand tore open a rift in space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then his figure stepped into the void tunnel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The image followed him as he traveled through the void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But gradually, mist thickened in the vision until everything was obscured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Demon-Shattering Heavenly God disappeared entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nothing could be seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The void became empty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hm.” The voice in the hall sounded again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then silence returned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The image shattered, and the palace was once more calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Holy Progenitor, where did Uncle Smasher go?” the boy asked carefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The River of Dao cannot trace his path,” the voice replied evenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How can that be?” the boy said in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The River of Dao spans all Nine Heavens. Nothing in heaven or earth escapes its reflection. For it to fail means only two possibilities.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The voice remained steady, reasoning aloud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Either there exists a being equal to my own realm who has concealed the heavenly secrets, or Demon-Shattering has gone to a place beyond the River of Dao’s reach.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the voice fell silent, the boy dared not speak further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For he could not even mention beings equal to the Holy Progenitor’s level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as for places the River of Dao could not trace, besides the banished Primordial Demon Cave, he knew of none.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Either explanation was far beyond his understanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Demon-Sealing Tower was destroyed,” the Holy Progenitor continued. “He must have gone to investigate. If I recall correctly, that tower held the Infernal Heart.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes,” the boy nodded quickly. “By the Immortal Lord’s decree, each of the Twelve Heavenly Gods has their duties. Uncle Smasher was the guardian of the Infernal Heart.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Guardian? He placed the Infernal Heart within the Thousand-Ox Dao Court. You think I don’t know?” the voice said coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy trembled and pressed his head to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This disciple truly doesn’t know! That matter has always been handled by the Immortal Lord.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This matter must be connected to the Demon Lord. Go and investigate. I cannot leave here for now,” the voice said indifferently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, this disciple will report to the Immortal Lord,” the boy said respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Take my token. Without it, you have no authority and no one will heed you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A white token floated out from the void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy caught it and sighed in relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He bowed deeply and said, “This disciple will take his leave.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……………\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within the God World, a mountain of immense power pinned the Demon-Shattering Heavenly God beneath it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Escape was impossible, he could barely even move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo no longer paid him any attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stretched out his right hand, and the Infernal Heart above poured out torrents of demonic energy toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hell-Suppressing Demon Physique seemed to respond to the call, its aura swelling ever stronger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crackling sounds filled his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The demonic energy gathered and pressed into his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A surge of indescribable power filled him completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, the Hell-Suppressing Demon Physique had been merely a shell, but this Infernal Heart was its core, the source of all strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the power boiled through him, Xu Zimo felt his very blood flowing in reverse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only did his physical strength surge, but even his soul and consciousness entered a dark void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Five Stages of the Grand Emperor Realm, Xu Zimo now stood in the second, the Void Tribulant stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next stage was God-Unity. To commune and unite with the divine meant the God-Soul would never perish; it could control heaven and earth, move mountains, fill seas, chase the moon, and traverse ten million miles in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It gave the soul its own divine awareness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before this, the soul was unconscious, guided only by the body’s will.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once communion was achieved, two consciousnesses would form. A primary consciousness, and a secondary one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These two awarenesses were crucial for advancing later into the Saint Sovereign realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When body, soul, and dual consciousness merged as one, every act carried divine essence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo’s awareness entered the endless darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Infernal Heart seemed to contain a mysterious force, remnants of ancient demonic daos. Black characters began to appear, floating in the void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They drifted toward Xu Zimo’s brow, merging into his being.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sat cross-legged, expression solemn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More and more meridians and acupoints opened within him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His power rose sharply, the void twisting around him. As time passed, divine intent erupted skyward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo slowly opened his eyes, he had reached the third stage of the Grand Emperor Realm, God-Unity Stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If one looked closely, they would see his soul had grown hundreds of times stronger.\u003C\u002Fp>",1164,"2026-06-06T01:07:10.116Z",1,"novelbin.me","f798821d5d838b02b5bba9c7fa34155ed0a6dd6fe5ab5dc914a9b5d407b40a55","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-1135","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-1133",1822,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-really-am-a-villain-cover.jpg"]
