Chapter 277: The Great Disaster of the Northern Prefecture

In the Void.

That Weird from Yellow Springs Road re-condensed its form, gathering back the body that Li Heng had blasted away and scattered into a mist, its expression unsightly.

If it hadn't already reached the level of a Weird of Heaven and merged with the Yin World, it would have been killed by that single punch just now!

"Are you still not going to act? He should be entangled by that Demon of Heaven right now; take the chance to kill him!" roared the Tian Lang from Hanging Mountain.

His Cold Moon Dharma Aspect had been interfered with by Li Heng's Great Sun Dharma Aspect, causing him to suffer a backlash; the Qi and Blood within his body were churning and surging incessantly, and his soul had sustained damage, making it difficult for him to act now, leaving him only able to rage in impotence.

Yet in reality, no one moved at this moment.

Tian Lang was suppressing his own backlash, the Weird was recovering from the injuries of having its body blasted apart, and even that Buying Life Money agent, who appeared to have no injuries, was facing a debt collection from the Void.

He had indeed bought this patch of the Void.

But he had only bought a portion of the usage rights to this Void; he possessed absolutely no underlying permissions.

It was similar to the issue of housing occupancy rights versus land ownership.

And when he bought this patch of the Void, he had promised the entire Void many conditions, such as no large-scale modifications, no altering of the Void's laws, and a series of other restrictions.

Among them was the prohibition against damaging this Void.

But now, this Void had been blasted apart by Li Heng.

Therefore, according to his Contract with the Void, he had breached the agreement.

Breaching the agreement meant paying a penalty, and the Void would also reclaim ownership of this patch, blacklisting him unless he paid extra.

And given the extent of the damage to this Void, it required a large sum of money; his funds were temporarily unable to circulate, so he was still communicating with the main body of Buying Life Money, intending to take out a loan.

The agent dared not refuse to pay this penalty either.

Because the essence of this kind of Contract was rooted in Causality.

It was not the Void that truly forced him to pay the penalty, but Causality. The Void had no will; even if he breached the agreement, it could not punish him, but Causality could.

Suddenly.

A streak of black light darted out from Li Heng's body.

The three were startled; this was clearly the Demon of Heaven.

What was going on? So fast? Could it be that the Demon of Heaven had failed?

As powerhouses standing at the pinnacle of the Yin World, they naturally knew the special nature of the Demon of Heaven; it was inherently formless and substanceless, capable of appearing within the heart of any living being.

If it allowed itself to transform into a Demon Tribulation, becoming a type of calamity, it would be even more pervasive; even powerhouses of their level could not defend against it, and even if they did, they would be entangled for a long time.

One could even say this.

Without external help, if a Demon of Heaven entangled someone tightly, basically no one was a match for it, and they would only gradually fall. Although they did not know the level of the Present World, in the Yin World, this Demon of Heaven was the number one in the realm of the mind!

But now.

Was this number one expelled by someone in such a short time?

The level of the Present World was this high.

The Demon of Heaven saw the expressions of the three and sneered.

"You three are from major factions, yet you didn't notice that this person has already been dealt with by this Demon? However, what he has here is only a projected avatar, and he has some secret techniques, so this Demon cannot affect his true self."

As soon as the words fell, Li Heng's body collapsed with a boom.

It seemed to corroborate the Demon of Heaven's words.

Netherworld.

A scene appeared before Li Heng's true self; in the scene were that Tian Lang from Hanging Mountain, the Weird from Yellow Springs Road, the Buying Life Money agent, and that excited Emperor of Great Ming.

He was using the eyes of the Demon of Heaven to watch these monsters and Weirds.

Just now in the Purple Mansion of the Primordial Spirit, that Demon of Heaven was quite sensible; in order to put Li Heng at ease, it even went so far as to establish a Contract, letting Li Heng control its Life and Death, becoming a tool.

And Li Heng also considered that the power of his avatar was nearly exhausted, and its location was close to the Yin World; even if his true self rushed over, it would be difficult to leave those monsters and Weirds behind, unless he personally struck into the Yin World.

But the Heaven in the Yin World had not gone missing.

He did not need to go against them on their home turf.

He simply played the long game, letting the Demon of Heaven become his secret pawn to lure these monsters and Weirds to the Present World; that would be a massive harvest of Source Power.

From the mouth of the Demon of Heaven.

Li Heng also learned that these Weirds wanted to go to the Present World. Then he would give these Weirds the opportunity, fulfilling their dream of going to the Present World to burn, kill, and loot.

He could not help but sigh that he was still too benevolent.

However, Li Heng also knew that the biggest variable in the plan was that Demon of Heaven. It had been too eager to be a dog, establishing a master-slave Contract just like that; there might be some way to bypass the Contract.

Therefore.

He mixed some Source Power into the Contract to strengthen it, and would just have to see if that Demon of Heaven was smart enough in the future.

"Why did you choose this person as a subordinate?"

Li Heng looked down from above, overlooking the entire Netherworld.

And beside him, that Shennü of Heaven pointed below at the former Champion Marquis of Great Ming, who had become an Underworld Messenger and was walking in the Netherworld to maintain order, and asked in confusion.

Hearing this, Li Heng raised an eyebrow.

"Oh, judging by your tone, you know him?"

Shennü shook her head.

"I do not know him, but there is a record of him in the records of Heaven, and it is even a record of some bad things."

"A record; how bad is it?"

Li Heng asked curiously.

"In the record, he used a very strange and bizarre Supernatural Ability to kill quite a few powerhouses of the same level as him."

Shennü answered in a calm tone.

"Heaven and Earth view all things as straw dogs; this bad record should not be about the killing, but about that strange and bizarre Supernatural Ability."

Li Heng said with a smile.

"That's right, it seems you have seen that Supernatural Ability of his?"

Shennü nodded.

"That Supernatural Ability of his is very strange; it is not a Law possessed within Heaven and Earth. It looks like the Dao of Causality, but in reality, it is not Causality. It is filled everywhere with a strange power that makes Heaven and Earth have to figure things out for themselves."

"Let's describe it this way: that move of his is like personifying 'Heaven', and then saying to me, 'I want to kill someone, but I won't exert any effort; you, as Heaven, figure it out yourself and help me kill the person.'"

"It is equivalent to forcing Heaven and Earth to do things for him."

"Therefore, he left behind a bad record and ended up on a blacklist. The Luck he had during his lifetime also slid all the way down, even affecting the dynasty he served during his lifetime called... what was it, Great Ming."

After listening, Li Heng's expression was strange.

Although he had guessed this point long ago. Theoretically, a power with such an extremely powerful status could indeed force Heaven and Earth to do things for itself, but it still felt like this kind of thing was a bit marvelous.

Moreover, could the destruction of Great Ming be related to this Champion Marquis?

"So that's how it is. Then, do you want me to expel him early?"

Li Heng joked with a smile.

"That is not necessary; I actually have no opinion on this person. Now that Heaven and Earth are suffering such a Calamity, this kind of strange Supernatural Ability might become a variable to avoid the destined ending."

"However..." Shennü frowned, her eyes somewhat confused.

"It is fine if you expel him too."

"Because I also do not know if that strange Supernatural Ability, that weird power, acts upon Heaven and Earth itself, or something more fundamental, a more fundamental environment, such as the vast Void."

She said, guessing.

Li Heng nodded; he understood what Shennü meant.

If it acts at the level of Heaven and Earth, forcing Heaven and Earth to do things for him and incurring the disgust of Heaven and Earth, that is still fine. Nowadays, this Heaven and Earth is also about to be lost, so where would there be any heart to seek revenge? If it acts at the level of the Void, forcing the vast Void that carries countless Worlds to do things for him.

Then that would be defying Heaven, and it would be an even bigger trouble.

"That is not necessary; there is no need to be overly suspicious."

After thinking, Li Heng shook his head.

If this kind of Supernatural Ability could really cause a backlash from the Void, then what kind of Salvation is that Jade Slip called? It might as well be called World-Destruction. Moreover, he used Source Power to slightly predict it and did not find any danger, so there is no need to worry about this possibility.

"Then it is up to you."

"Also, I have already seriously considered your suggestion to leave behind an avatar to station in this Underworld Reincarnation."

Shennü said seriously and formally.

Li Heng nodded upon hearing this.

"That works. Just have that avatar of yours stand in front of the Reincarnation Disk and call her Mengpo. Sell Mengpo Soup to let the souls reincarnating have their past lives and memories wiped away, severing past grievances."

He was just making a joke before.

But since this Shennü of Heaven took these words seriously, that is also fine; he has no need to object. Perhaps the appearance of the name Mengpo in this World might trigger some changes.

"By the way, you should consider your future path."

"Future path? Why do you say that?"

Li Heng asked in surprise.

"Heaven and Earth have undergone mutations, and the path for Heavenly Human sublimation has been severed. You must open up a new realm above the Dharma Aspect, and this realm must avoid the Pollution of that power."

Shennü said softly.

"I naturally know this point, but compared to that Pollution, I am more worried about whether this Heaven and Earth can withstand it. If the realm I open up is too powerful and the status is too high, what if Heaven and Earth collapse?"

Li Heng said with a smile.

Shennü's expression stiffened upon hearing this.

It seems that is indeed the logic?

When Li Heng advanced to Dharma Aspect before, that Dharma Aspect status was extremely high, making Heaven and Earth almost unable to withstand it. If he advances further, can Heaven and Earth really withstand it? Shennü felt worried in her heart.

She suddenly realized.

In this aspect, she really has to be grateful for this suddenly descending Calamity, the power that Pollutes Heaven and Earth. Because this power combines with Heaven and Earth, while causing Heaven and Earth to deform, it is also causing Heaven and Earth to sublimate, although this sublimation has no meaning for normal living beings.

However, he should not count as a normal living being, right?

Shennü muttered in her heart, thinking of the scene where Li Heng advanced to Dharma Aspect before; for the first time, strong emotional fluctuations were released in her mind, becoming more and more personified.

"Ahem, you don't need to worry about this; Heaven and Earth can withstand it."

Suppressing the emotions in her heart, Shennü said calmly.

"That's good." Li Heng nodded.

Because of the existence of the Visualization Divine Ability and Source Power, he can let his imagination run wild without restraint, so he was really afraid that if he created something too strong, he would cause Heaven and Earth to collapse.

It would be funny if that really happened.

He would destroy the world faster than that Weird Calamity?

Shennü suddenly realized that in this aspect, she seemingly had no qualifications to discuss it. Now, what is maintaining the strength of Heaven and Earth is no longer she, this Heaven, but the descending Calamity and the Weird power.

Therefore, she chose to change the subject.

"By the way, tell you one thing."

"That Dali Beijun is about to face a Calamity."

"Previously, in the most likely future, that Sunset Organization, which even I cannot see clearly, would send many members to Beijun to find you, destroying the entire Beijun."

However, soon, she revealed a look of confusion again.

"However... now, that future seems to have changed? It is no longer possible to appear. Those members of the Sunset Organization will still come to Beijun, but they will not directly take action to destroy Beijun."

Shennü said with some confusion.

Above the land of Beijun, in the vast sky.

The Void shook, and one figure after another broke through the Void, stepping out from the Void, looking down at the mountains and rivers of Beijun below.

"This is Beijun of the Great Li Dynasty, remote enough. No wonder no one in the organization chose this region; not only is the Yin energy not very dense, but even the spiritual Qi is not strong. Can such a place really give birth to a human powerhouse who cultivates the Great Sun Path?"

A statement made by a pitch-black demon, sounding like a greenhorn.

But no one refuted him.

Because this demon was at the Heavenly Human level.

Since even their own Heavenly Human powerhouse said so, then this Beijun of Great Li must be that pathetic. The group of demons shook their heads inwardly; this situation was simply using a butcher's knife to slaughter a chicken.

For the sake of the so-called Great Sun Path practitioner, almost all Dharma Aspect and most Heavenly Human powerhouses had gathered here. A force of this scale could destroy this Great Li more than ten times over!

This could no longer be called a lion using its full strength to fight a rabbit.

It was simply a lion fighting an ant!

"Alright Yin Sha, what are you complaining about?"

"Just do as the Master ordered."

A dragon-shaped demon saw that the atmosphere was a bit off, frowned, and said; he was also at the Heavenly Human level.

"Fine, fine, fine, you are the leader of this operation, so you tell us what to do. Since we cannot destroy this place immediately, how should we coerce that Great Sun Path practitioner to appear?"

"We must resolve this matter as quickly as possible and then go find the reincarnation of Heaven; that is the top priority."

Yin Sha emphasized.

"Does that even need thinking?"

"Immediately unleash a Supernatural Ability to cover this land of Beijun, isolate it from the outside, eliminate any interference from human Heavenly Human powerhouses, control all living beings within Beijun, and force him to appear."

A humanoid Weird stepped out, also a Heavenly Human.

Right now, there were ten Heavenly Humans here, along with dozens of Dharma Aspect Peak experts; it could be said they had come out in full force. Thus, they did not believe for a second that this operation would fail.

"That's easy to say, but what if that person doesn't appear?"

Yin Sha smiled disdainfully.

"Someone who cultivates the Great Sun Path wouldn't appear? Then he isn't qualified to cultivate the Great Sun Path anyway." The humanoid demon responded calmly.

"Alright, let's listen to him; he used to be human and is most familiar with the human race." The leading dragon-shaped demon also agreed.

After exchanging opinions and resolving the interpersonal conflicts among their members, these demons immediately took action; pillars of monstrous momentum shot into the sky, and their individual domains expanded in circles toward the surroundings.

Within a few breaths, they had already covered Beijun, isolating it from the outside.

Then, they spoke out.

"Tiny human beings, you are going to die."

The voice resounded throughout Beijun.
