Chapter 208: Creating the Demonic Dao

"It's as if I don't covet His power, and He would just let me go."

Han Yu muttered to himself, and upon hearing this, the God-Defiler laughed again.

"Right, we cultivators, why fear a battle? What of an Immortal King? We shall resist to the very end!"

Watching the manic God-Defiler, whose attitude changed every other moment, he couldn't be bothered to engage with the fellow, focusing his full attention on studying the methods the Six Desires Immortal King had left upon him.

While Han Yu analyzed the power of the Six Desires Immortal King, the God-Defiler helped with the analysis from the side, talking about his own understanding of the Six Desires Immortal King.

"The power of the six desires of this Six Desires Immortal King represents the six types: life, death, ears, nose, mouth, and eyes. The reason we who are imprisoned by him are undying and indestructible is related to this power of the six desires..."

Listening to the God-Defiler's account, combined with Han Yu's own analysis, his understanding of this power became increasingly clear.

Finally, a flash of inspiration struck Han Yu, and he seemed to have captured something.

"I understand now. Your undying and indestructible nature stems from your seven emotions and six desires. Whether it is joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness, as long as your seven emotions and six desires do not cease, you will never be able to escape these shackles..."

"Nonsense, we are all aware of this. The point is that as long as one is a living being, one absolutely cannot escape the seven emotions and six desires; we can never break free!"

"I know you are anxious, but don't be anxious yet."

"This so-called Severing Emotion and Desire Lock, as well as your undying and indestructible nature, are both supported by some kind of extreme emotion. I think this is also the reason why you suffer at every moment. Whether it is pain or resentment, they are all means for the Six Desires Immortal King to bind you. To break his methods, there is no need to sever emotions and desires; one only needs to balance the seven emotions and six desires!"

Once these words were spoken, the God-Defiler seemed to realize something; he could not help but tremble all over, appearing somewhat agitated, but then he sighed dejectedly.

"Balancing the seven emotions and six desires—it sounds simple, but how is it easy to do? Let alone us old fellows who have been tortured out of human shape, even among ordinary people who have lived stable lives, few have achieved it."

This God-Defiler was right; no matter who had been tortured for so many years, the resentment in their hearts would be hard to dissipate. This God-Defiler had been driven mad, which was proof enough. To make them balance the emotions in their hearts was truly as difficult as ascending to Heaven.

Han Yu was silent for a moment, then spoke a sentence that shocked the God-Defiler.

"Since you cannot balance them yourselves, then I will help you. Whatever resentment, anger, or unwillingness you have, transfer it all to me!"

"You are mad, you must be mad. Do you know how much negative energy we have accumulated after being suppressed for hundreds of millions of years? Who do you think you are, wanting to withstand this kind of pressure with your own strength?"

"Whether I can withstand it or not, won't we know if we try?"

"No, absolutely not. I have already been wrong once, I cannot be wrong a second time!"

The God-Defiler became very firm, appearing to have returned to the moment when he was once righteous and awe-inspiring, fighting against the Immortal Gods of other realms.

Han Yu was not in a hurry; he knew this fellow would change his mind in the next moment.

Sure enough, not long after, the God-Defiler, who had just been full of righteousness, suddenly became manic and looked at Han Yu with a hideous grin.

"Come on, come on! Don't you want to experience my resentment? Open your heart and mind, and let you see what kind of suffering we have endured all these years!"

Han Yu nodded and directly opened his heart and mind, and the God-Defiler did not hold back; the negative energy that had been suppressed in his body and mind for years surged out all at once.

Rumble—

Endless negative energy blanketed Han Yu, and the latter's originally clear eyes were instantly stained with all sorts of emotions.

At this moment, he personally felt the endless pain of being suppressed beneath the Jue Ling Shen Yuan. Besides the constant erosion of the Jue Ling power, there was also the loneliness of the passage of time. In this environment, no matter how firm one's will was, being driven mad was only a matter of time.

Han Yu felt that if it were him, he probably wouldn't have lasted more than a few decades, yet this God-Defiler before him had endured such hardship for hundreds of millions of years.

To be honest, by this point, Han Yu's intent to kill him was no longer so heavy.

However, at this moment, what he should be thinking about was how to transfer all this negative energy onto himself.

Among the paths he cultivated, there were no methods regarding this aspect.

"Since there are none, then I will create one myself!"

"The Heaven-Human Great Dao is all-encompassing. The paths I cultivated before were all imitated from others. Now that there is no object to borrow from, I will create a suitable path according to my needs."

Thinking this way, Han Yu began to design the step-by-step cultivation method for this path according to his needs. As the path gradually perfected, the negative energy entwining Han Yu was also being absorbed by him bit by bit.

At the same time, his cultivation in this path was also soaring, from Body Tempering to Qi Refining, and then step by step ascending to the supreme. Finally, Han Yu's white robes were stained with blood-red patterns, looking both eerie and domineering.

The God-Defiler had initially intended to watch the fun; he also wanted to see how Han Yu would be driven mad by his own negative energy and eventually become just like him.

But as his negative energy was gradually absorbed by Han Yu, the mania in his eyes gradually disappeared, replaced by clarity and reason. The once righteous and awe-inspiring him had regained the high ground.

"No, no, you must stop. If you keep absorbing, you will definitely have problems!"

"Problems? What problems?"

Han Yu grinned. The previous him smiled in a way that made people feel like a spring breeze, but now, there was a bit of evil in that smile.

However, Han Yu's eyes remained calm, just like a flat lake. No matter how the negative energy poured into it, it would at most change the color of the lake water, but it could not break the tranquility of the flat lake.

"The Heaven-Human Great Dao I cultivate is all-encompassing. I can absorb positive energy, and I should naturally encompass negative energy as well!"

"A path that cultivates by absorbing negative energy is rare in the world. This is different from the Qi Refining, Spirit Refining, and Body Refining Great Dao. Since that is the case, let it be called—the Demonic Dao!"

"Without madness, there is no life. This Demonic Dao is different from the Body Refining Great Dao of the ancient texts. The Demonic Dao is specifically for absorbing the negative energy of this world, enduring endless darkness, and immersing oneself in endless pain. The Great Dao of Heaven and Earth is inherently a combination of yin and yang, and most living beings are born facing the sun."

"Then let the Demonic Dao cultivators take on this dark side!"

Every word of Han Yu's, falling into the heart of the God-Defiler senior, made his heart shake.

"Good, what a Demonic Dao. It is a pity; if I were not dead, I would also like to try the power of this Demonic Dao!"

Han Yu looked at the senior who was gradually recovering his human appearance. At this moment, the negative energy on the other party was gradually absorbed by Han Yu, and the originally distorted facial features were revealed, returning to normal. The other party was indeed a man of talent, and his temperament was extraordinary.

As Han Yu absorbed his negative energy, his mood also became stable, and the methods left in his body by the Six Desires Immortal King were also broken without being attacked.

He had regained his freedom!

A smile appeared on his face, and then, as he laughed, he wept.

"Little friend, thank you!"
