The first to suffer was Heaven Refining Demon Venerable...
Ice Prison Realm, Chaos Layer.
As the region closest to the realm wall, this was the first place the master and disciple of the Void Dharma Lineage passed through.
Decades had passed.
Heaven Refining Demon Venerable was still trying to use the power of chaos to refine Life Demon's power, then neutralize the risks with the world energy obtained through the Heaven Refining Dao.
He wanted to step into that legendary realm.
Yet even though he had calculated every step, even taking the Immortal Rules into account and planning to use the Ancient Demon's power to contend against them, he did not seek to completely break the shackles of the rules.
He only needed a small opening, just enough to accommodate an anomaly like him.
The rules targeted the entire world, not him alone.
Therefore.
Logically speaking, his deduction did have a possibility of success. The problem was... he did not understand the rules, nor did he understand the mighty power of immortals.
Peering at a leopard through a tube, it was very easy to overlook the true appearance of things.
And from there, a chain reaction was born.
He was stuck at the final step. Whether it was the amount of Demonic Essence, the strength of his Primordial Spirit, or even his comprehension of space, he believed he had reached the standard for a breakthrough.
What should have been a smooth breakthrough process had been forcibly jammed at the last step.
Until now.
The intensity of the power of chaos gradually surpassed the constantly consumed Life Demon power. If this continued, he might instead be refined by the chaos into world energy.
However much he had seized, after death, it would all be returned to heaven and earth.
