Chapter 382: Destroying Gui Yao

"Crack..."

A clear shattering sound rang out in heaven and earth, instantly attracting everyone's sight.

A huge crack actually appeared on the sun that covered the sky like a black curtain.

Then the crack spread rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, it crawled all over the sun.

The next moment, the black sun collapsed with a bang, and wisps of evil power dissipated in all directions.

Above Gui Yao's head, Chu Yang stood with his hands behind his back, unscathed, only the Source Martial Dharma Body had dissipated.

"This is impossible!"

Gui Yao's expression was a bit dull, his face full of disbelief.

Although Chu Yang's divine ability was extraordinary, it only barely reached the level of the late stage of Immortal Product Heavenly Sovereign.

But his Gui Demon Sun Wheel was comparable to the full-strength blow of the Nine Heavens Xuan Demon Emperor! The gap between them was not a little bit, why could Chu Yang crush the Gui Demon Sun Wheel and even be unscathed? "There is nothing impossible..."

Chu Yang said lightly: "The Gui Demon Sun Wheel is the original divine ability of the Gui Xie Heavenly Demon Emperor. Without the realm of a Heavenly Demon Emperor, even for the Gui Demon clan, if they want to cast the complete version of the Gui Demon Sun Wheel, they can only do it in two ways..."

"Either a Xuan Demon Emperor disintegrates and sacrifices himself!"

"Or sacrifice a large number of clansmen, and at the same time use the essence blood of the Gui Xie Heavenly Demon Emperor as a guide!"

Chu Yang showed a smile on his face, "Since you can still live, it means you used the second method."

"But this method has to rely on the essence blood of the Gui Xie Heavenly Demon Emperor. As long as I can find the location of the essence blood, the Gui Demon Sun Wheel is only at the mid-stage of Immortal Product level for me!"

Gui Yao was even more confused, and a trace of blankness even flashed in his eyes.

He didn't understand why Chu Yang could name the divine ability, and even knew all the secrets about it? "It's Gui Hu! That cheap woman betrayed the Saint Clan!"

Gui Yao suddenly came back to his senses. The prerequisite for cultivating the Gui Demon Sun Wheel

Among the Devious Demon Clan, besides him, only the Devious Fox understood the cultivation method for this divine ability, as she specialized in Soul Force and was the most promising member of the clan to become the second person capable of cultivating the Devious Demon Sun Wheel.

Chu Yang smiled without a word; no matter how much the Devious Demon racked his brain, he would never imagine that it wasn't a betrayal by the Devious Fox, but that he had obtained seventy percent of her memories.

"How much of your strength do you have left now?"

Chu Yang sneered, 【Fengdu】 leaping into his hand as he slashed out with his sword! A sky full of black light spilled out, but it vanished in a flash; no one saw clearly what happened, only that the Devious Demon's body suddenly froze.

A gentle breeze blew past, and the Devious Demon crumbled like a sand sculpture, scattering into flying ash in the wind, leaving behind only a strand of Original Demonic Qi and his soul body.

Extreme Sword Art·Night Bloom! Although he hadn't borrowed the power of the world to forge the sword, the power of using this move with 【Fengdu】 was not to be underestimated—it was more than enough to deal with the exhausted Devious Demon.

"Clang!"

A long spear shot out from the ancient book above Chu Yang's head, piercing directly through the Devious Demon's soul body.

Finally, the spear carried the soul's Original Power back, merging into the ancient book.

Putting away the ancient book, Chu Yang reached out to capture the Devious Demon's Original Demonic Qi, pretending to "seal" it.

After finishing all this, Chu Yang sent a voice transmission to Emperor Yun: "Senior, please take your people and withdraw from this area first. I will set up a Demon Refinement Array to wipe out the Devious Demon Clan in one fell swoop!"

Emperor Yun was stunned, then secretly shocked.

Not only was he young and already at the Di Zhizun realm, capable of killing enemies across multiple major realms with strength comparable to a Spiritual Product Tian Zhizun, but he also understood Spiritual Arrays?

However, recalling the mysterious array map Chu Yang had used earlier to block the evil giant python, she didn't doubt him and immediately gave the order, leading the experts of the Great Thousand Palace to retreat rapidly.

Chu Yang formed seals with his hands, drawing upon the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to outline complex runes, which then merged into the surrounding space.

The Original Body of Martial Essence appeared once more, sitting cross-legged in the center of the "Spiritual Array," as if acting as the array eye.

The next moment, the array was activated, and a brilliant light instantly enveloped all the Outer Evil Demons.

This maneuver by Chu Yang stunned the experts of the Great Thousand Palace, and even the Spiritual Array Masters among them could not see through it.

They would never have guessed that Chu Yang's array was not a Spiritual Array at all, but a Demon Refinement Array originating from Mount Shu.

Judging by the aura fluctuations, the array indeed possessed the power to "refine demons," but Chu Yang had added some illusions to block external detection, and with the light covering everything, no one knew what was happening inside.

At this moment, the Original Body of Martial Essence was slaughtering everything within the array, frantically devouring the strands of Original Demonic Qi one after another.

Almost all the experts of the Devious Demon Clan were gathered here, and Chu Yang naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity to devour a large amount of Original Demonic Qi.

Letting out a long breath, Chu Yang finally looked toward the battlefield between the West Heaven Battle Emperor and the Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor.

Due to being caught off guard by the Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor earlier, the West Heaven Battle Emperor had sustained some injuries and was now in a precarious situation.

The Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor was fighting with increasing ferocity; clearly, the death of the Devious Demon had thoroughly enraged him and strengthened his resolve to kill Chu Yang.

"Senior, I have a way to weaken his strength, but it will only last for a very short time. Do you have the confidence to kill him during this period?"

Hearing the voice suddenly ring in his ears, the West Heaven Battle Emperor's eyes narrowed, his peripheral vision scanning Chu Yang without a trace.

While fending off the Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor's attacks, the West Heaven Battle Emperor transmitted back: "I have seventy percent confidence. But you must think clearly—if you leave now, I have the confidence to take you with me!"

"If we follow your plan, I will consume a massive amount of energy. If we fail, I might not even be able to protect myself, and you will certainly die!"

Chu Yang's confident voice came again: "Senior, please feel free to act!"

Hearing this, the West Heaven Battle Emperor said no more, instead erupting with a terrifying aura and bringing out his trump card.

The Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor was pushed back several hundred feet, and then he saw the West Heaven Battle Emperor forming seals with his hands, the surrounding space twisting and trembling as if forming a spatial passage.

"Want to run?" The Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor sneered, evil energy surging as he charged toward the West Heaven Battle Emperor.

At the same time, Chu Yang's eyes narrowed, 【Fengdu】 leaping into his hand, a brilliant light enveloping his entire body, and with a flash of lightning beneath his feet, he caught up to the Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor.

The Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor's attention was drawn by the West Heaven Battle Emperor, and only then did he notice Chu Yang's movement; he turned abruptly to strike, but it was already too late.

The brilliant light merged into 【Fengdu】, and black light orbs filled with destructive aura shot out, enveloping the Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor.

Reincarnation!

Watching the Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor being wrapped in the black light orbs, his originally old and withered body rapidly became young, and the wrinkles on his face grew fewer and fewer.

In the blink of an eye, the Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor transformed from a dying old man into a youth with an eerie appearance.

His powerful physical body also weakened by countless times.

Although using Reincarnation on an expert like the Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor would significantly reduce the effect, it still dropped his physical strength to the level of a Di Zhizun Great Perfection.

With a body at the Di Zhizun Great Perfection level, let alone exerting the full power of a Saint Product, he couldn't even withstand the full operation of his evil power. Just as Chu Yang said, he had greatly weakened the Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor's strength.

This scene far exceeded the West Heaven Battle Emperor's expectations; he had thought Chu Yang would at most weaken the Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor by one or half a small realm.

But he never expected that he would actually knock him out of the Tian Zhizun level!

The current Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor could at most exert the strength of a Spiritual Product Tian Zhizun Mid-stage; once he exceeded this level, his physical body would be unable to bear the burden.

As for abandoning his physical body? One must know that the influence of Reincarnation does not merely act upon the target's physical body! Except for being unable to affect his origin, everything about the Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor returned to the state of his youth.

This included, but was not limited to, his physical body, soul, and even the loss of his connection to the treasures he carried.

Reincarnation is a power that is hard to explain; although Chu Yang could drive it, he could not fully understand it.

Furthermore, the origin of the De Novo Ultimate Gene, combined with the power formed by 【Fengdu】, was filled with a destructive aura.

To this day, Chu Yang had not figured out the root of that destructive aura, let alone been able to fully utilize its effect.

Feeling the Primordial Qi and Soul Force in his body consuming rapidly, Chu Yang looked at the West Heaven Battle Emperor.

The consumption when Chu Yang used Reincarnation was directly proportional to the strength and number of the targets affected.

If used on ordinary people, the consumption was negligible, but when used on an expert like the Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor, he could not sustain it for long.

Moreover, this consumption varied according to the target and would not decrease as Chu Yang's strength grew; rather, it would extend the duration of the Reincarnation as his Primordial Qi and Soul Force became more abundant.

As for the magnitude of the Reincarnation's influence, it would only increase based on his understanding of the De Novo Ultimate Gene and the origin of 【Fengdu】.

"This... what kind of power is this?!?"

For the first time, a look of terror appeared on the Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor's face.

Before this, he had always felt that victory was in his grasp, and even the death of the Devious Demon had not had much impact on him.

At most, either the West Heaven Battle Emperor or Chu Yang would escape alive.

But as long as he could keep one of them, the sacrifice of the entire Devious Demon Clan would be worth it.

Moreover, he had great confidence in being able to keep Chu Yang; compared to this monster who was evil to the extreme, the West Heaven Battle Emperor seemed somewhat insignificant.

But this sudden, eerie power completely shattered all his illusions.

Only now did he realize that this young human was far more terrifying than he had imagined! The West Heaven Battle Emperor naturally dared not delay; a terrifying Battle Spirit Power surged from the Ancient War Emperor Body, gathering above the body's head and transforming into a golden cauldron, with dense figures engraved on its surface, as if it were an army.

Peerless Divine Ability, War Spirit Unbeaten Cauldron! The West Heaven Battle Emperor waved his hand, and the golden cauldron directly took in the Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor, who naturally could not resist in his current state.

Then the West Heaven Battle Emperor pressed forward, his hands striking down repeatedly; a series of roars erupted from the cauldron, as if thousands of soldiers were shouting in battle.

A few breaths later, the Primordial Qi and Soul Force in Chu Yang's body were nearly exhausted, and 【Fengdu】 in his hand trembled slightly, the brilliant light detaching and returning to his body.

Putting away 【Fengdu】, Chu Yang looked at the golden cauldron not far away, his eyes gradually becoming solemn.

The Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor was still not dead! Or rather... not dead enough! "Boom!!"

The next moment, the golden cauldron exploded, and the West Heaven Battle Emperor retreated rapidly, arriving in front of Chu Yang to protect him behind his back.

A terrifying energy shockwave swept out, and a ball of black mist emerged.

That ball of black mist seemed very unstable, ready to collapse completely at any moment, exuding a withered and weak aura.

The moment the black mist appeared, a spatial rift appeared above it, and then a large hand covered in demonic patterns reached out and grabbed the black mist.

Immediately after, the large hand wanted to attack the West Heaven Battle Emperor and Chu Yang, but it seemed to have some reservations and ultimately did not strike.

Watching the slowly closing spatial rift, the West Heaven Battle Emperor let out a long breath and said somewhat weakly: "It's the Heavenly Demon Emperor!"

"However, I assume there are Saint Product experts in the Great Thousand Palace deterring him from afar, otherwise we would be in grave danger today."

Chu Yang nodded without speaking.

Failing to keep the Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor, he was naturally quite disappointed; the origin of a Half-step Saint Product Profound Demon Emperor could have added at least ten demonic patterns to the Original Body of Martial Essence! Glancing at the many experts of the Great Thousand Palace in the distance, a smile appeared on Chu Yang's face again.

Regardless, the main goal had finally been achieved!

After this battle, his name would soon resound throughout the entire Great Thousand World, which would inevitably bring a massive gain in faith power.

Moreover, there was the Extermination Demon List; once he, the first Extermination Demon King since the ancient era, appeared, it would also cause a great stir.

Emperor Yun's figure appeared before them, bowing to them and saying: "The two of you have fought successive battles; why not return to the headquarters with me to recuperate?"

The West Heaven Battle Emperor did not answer but looked at Chu Yang, who smiled and said: "Since the Senior has personally invited me, I naturally dare not refuse."

A bitter smile appeared on Emperor Yun's face; Chu Yang was indeed a junior, and his cultivation was only at the Lower Rank Di Zhizun, but his strength was simply too outrageous!

Facing this young man, she dared not act arrogant due to her seniority.

After all, that Mid-stage You Mo Emperor, whose strength was not much different from her own, had been killed by Chu Yang in one move! Ultimately, this is a world where strength is respected.

"Then this Spiritual Array..." Emperor Yun pointed at the Demon Refinement Array, hesitating slightly.

Chu Yang smiled and said: "The Devious Demon Clan has been completely refined!"

After speaking, he waved his hand, the Demon Refinement Array dissipated, and the Original Body of Martial Essence turned into a stream of light, merging into his body.

Emperor Yun stared blankly at the entrance to the Sen Luo Realm; there was not a shadow of an Outer Evil Tribe member left, not even a trace.

"The young friend's methods are truly admirable!" Emperor Yun praised sincerely.

This young man's attainments in Spiritual Arrays seemed no weaker than his own strength!

On the way back to the Demon-Suppressing Fortress, all the experts of the Great Thousand Palace cast looks of awe at Chu Yang, and some of the younger ones had eyes filled with worship.

In their eyes, Chu Yang was like a God of War, turning the tide and overturning the outcome of this war!

He had killed three You Mo Emperors and one Profound Demon Emperor, and even forcibly suppressed the power of the Nine Heavens Profound Demon Emperor, nearly causing him to be killed by the West Heaven Battle Emperor.

These achievements were all truly admirable!

Most importantly...

He was only at the Lower Rank Di Zhizun cultivation! Chu Yang ignored these gazes, his Soul Force probing into his dantian singularity.

When he saw the demonic patterns on the left arm of his body, a smile could not help but appear on his face... (End of chapter)
