Outer Realm Heavenly Demon Gets Bold

Lava flowed, and fire-serpents writhed.

Not far away, a mountain range seemed like a slumbering Primordial Beast awakening, erupting into a sea of flames.

The incomparably harsh environment made survival difficult for living beings, yet this was the Sun Star.

To countless Primordial Beings, the Sun Star was a forbidden land.

Yet if life were nurtured upon the Sun Star, it would surely be incomparably powerful.

Suddenly, the lava surged faster, raising a curtain of fire tens of thousands of zhang high.

Several Star Beings were startled and joined forces, using their magic power to resist the crushing flames.

The fire curtain, tens of thousands of zhang high, descended like a giant hand, yet it merely shook the starlight barrier formed from their magic power.

Once the flames subsided, the Star Beings all heaved sighs of relief.

These Star Beings were tall, each over ten zhang in height. Their appearances were strange, their bodies blue-brown, their heads large and bodies small. Some had four arms, some six, and star-patterns gleamed across their forms.

If Lu Yang's magic power was supremely yang and vast, tyrannical to the utmost, then the magic power of these Star Beings carried a somewhat chilly quality.

Several Mystic Immortal level beings joining forces could still move cautiously across the Sun Star's surface without much trouble.

Of course, the Star Beings' expenditure was considerable.

Suddenly, the temperature across an area billions upon billions of li wide soared sharply, making the Star Beings' hearts pound with terror.

It was as if a great crisis were about to descend.

"Leave this place at once!" cried the leading Star Being.

Before the beings could flee far away, golden-red flames burst forth from the sea of fire and lava.

"This is..."

"Not good!"

"This is Sun True Fire."

Compared to the Southern Bright Li Fire of the Phoenix Clan, Sun True Fire was even more tyrannical.

This fire could burn anything.

Burning the heavens and boiling the seas would be effortless.

Several Mystic Immortal level beings were simply not enough before Sun True Fire.

Everything happened too suddenly, leaving the Star Beings no time to escape.

At the critical moment, some unleashed divine abilities while others brought out magical treasures, but they were merely postnatal items.

Only a little more than a dozen Cosmic Epochs had passed since the Beginning of Heaven and Earth, and most Innate Spiritual Treasures were still being nurtured.

Furthermore, Innate Spiritual Treasures were inherently scarce.

By the numbers of Heaven and Earth, one Cosmic Epoch consisted of 129,600 years.

Half a jiazi, or thirty years, made one life; twelve lives made one epoch; thirty epochs made one cycle; thus, one cycle was 10,800 years.

Therefore, one Cosmic Epoch was twelve cycles.

One complete cycle of Heaven and Earth was called a "Cosmic Epoch."

Thus, the Cosmic Epoch was also the largest unit of time in the Primordial World.

When one Cosmic Epoch ended, it marked a "new Heaven and Earth," known as "one origin begins anew, and all things are renewed."

As for a Calamity, it was fifty thousand Cosmic Epochs.

An Immeasurable Calamity was 480 million Calamities. Yet that was under normal circumstances; in truth, both Calamities and Immeasurable Calamities could arrive early or be delayed.

Every movement of the Star Beings was within Lu Yang's perception.

"A Mid-grade Postnatal Spiritual Treasure?"

Lu Yang fell into thought.

Magical treasures were divided into innate and postnatal.

Postnatal Spiritual Treasures were refined by living beings, while Innate Spiritual Treasures were born before Heaven and Earth.

Simply put, magical treasures all contained restrictions. The restrictions within Innate Spiritual Treasures were Innate restrictions.

It could not be said that Innate Spiritual Treasures were necessarily more powerful than Postnatal Spiritual Treasures.

After all, magical treasures served different purposes: some were offensive, some defensive, and some supportive.

There were Innate Spiritual Treasures and even Innate Supreme Treasures on the Sun Star, and Lu Yang knew their exact locations.

It would not be too late to retrieve them after refining a Golden Crow avatar.

Boom!

Under the impact of a huge mass of Sun True Fire, several magical treasures dimmed. One was even burned halfway through, while the rest were scorched black.

Their chilly magic power barrier could not withstand it at all.

For a time, all the Star Beings were injured.

The lava swallowed the beings.

No matter how they struggled, they could not break free from the pulling force beneath the lava.

Below the lava seemed bottomless, and the beings continued to fall.

As they fell without end, space shifted, and the firelight was so bright they could not open their eyes.

First came red firelight, then golden-red, and finally golden firelight.

If not for the interlacing spaces, even a single wisp of golden firelight would have been enough to destroy both their bodies and souls.

"Too terrifying!"

The beings' minds and spirits fell into chaos.

Somewhere on the Sun Star stood a Primordial Great Array. A corner of it had now broken open, and the Primordial Spiritual Light within flowed out.

One Diagram, One Book shimmered with hazy divine light as Primordial Dao Rhyme circulated around them. They were the Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasures, the River Diagram and Luo Book.

Those possessing thirty-seven to forty-eight Innate restrictions were Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasures.

The River Diagram possessed forty-one Innate restrictions, and so did the Luo Book. Combined, they were not simply one plus one, but possessed only forty-five Innate restrictions.

One had to know that Innate Supreme Treasures possessed only forty-nine Innate restrictions.

Since ancient times, perhaps only the giant axe of Great God Pangu had possessed fifty Primordial Divine Restrictions!

Something had gone wrong with the Primordial Great Array concealing the River Diagram and Luo Book, and this was also related to Lu Yang.

Lu Yang's condensing of his primordial spirit had caused some changes to occur on the Sun Star.

Of course, it was not a major problem.

The Primordial Great Array could repair itself. Only one corner of the array concealing the River Diagram and Luo Book had broken open, and it would be repaired in just a few Primordial Years.

However, a powerful demonic aura entered the Primordial World from beyond the realm and descended upon the Sun Star.

The demonic aura was black as ink, cold and evil.

The demonic aura churned and condensed into the form of a giant over a hundred zhang tall. Its entire body was pitch-black, its face blue and fanged, with two heads, seven arms, and horns upon its forehead.

"An Outer Realm Heavenly Demon?"

Lu Yang was also taken aback.

When Pangu's Creation occurred, many evil thoughts had already existed within the chaos.

Outside the Primordial Era, terrifying evil thoughts transformed into fiends, concealing themselves in the Heavenly Demon Realm as they waited for an opportunity to act.

This Outer Realm Heavenly Demon that had descended was not to be underestimated. Its cultivation should be at the Grand Unity Golden Immortal level.

Outer Realm Heavenly Demons bore immense malice toward the Primordial World, but as long as they did not damage the Primordial World, they would not incur Karmic Power.

Yet the Heavenly Dao still somewhat targeted Outer Realm Heavenly Demons.

At the very least, Outer Realm Heavenly Demons possessed virtually no Fortune.

No Fortune meant Destiny is Exhausted, and that was extremely dangerous in the Primordial World.

This Outer Realm Heavenly Demon had descended upon the Sun Star solely for the Innate Spiritual Treasures.

Outside the Primordial Great Array concealing the River Diagram and Luo Book, the Outer Realm Heavenly Demon let out a sinister cackle.

Since a corner of the array had broken, taking the Innate Spiritual Treasures within would be much easier.

"Such dazzling Primordial Spiritual Light—it must be at least a High-grade Primordial Spiritual Treasure!"

Thinking this, the Outer Realm Heavenly Demon barged into the array.

The array contained a world of its own.

Space twisted, and a stream of Golden Magic Power appeared out of thin air.

"Getting bold, coming to my Sun Star to seek death." Lu Yang sneered.

The Innate Spiritual Treasures on the Sun Star could not be allowed to fall into the hands of an Outer Realm Heavenly Demon.

Not just the Innate Spiritual Treasures—ownership of every resource on the Sun Star belonged to Lu Yang.

Innate Spiritual Treasures were indeed tempting, but this Outer Realm Heavenly Demon knew nothing of the Sun Star's terrors.

"Who are you?" The Outer Realm Heavenly Demon was also startled.

The Golden Magic Power had already locked onto the Outer Realm Heavenly Demon.

Though it was only a small portion of Lu Yang's magic power, it still surpassed the Grand Unity Golden Immortal level.

Faced with this magic power, the Outer Realm Heavenly Demon turned pale with fright.

"The Sun Star is not a place you should have come to. Since you came, stay here!"

Lu Yang's divine sense also felt incomparably scorching to the Outer Realm Heavenly Demon.

An unprecedented terror grew in the Outer Realm Heavenly Demon's heart.

Was there a hidden mighty expert on the Sun Star?

Even an incarnation of magic power was this strong—just how powerful would the true body be?

At this moment, the Outer Realm Heavenly Demon no longer thought of Innate Spiritual Treasures. It only wanted to retreat unharmed.

However, the Golden Magic Power had already begun its attack.

The demonic aura exploded at once, and the Heavenly Demon Primordial Spirit traveled billions upon billions of li in an instant.

The array was not operating strongly enough, and the Outer Realm Heavenly Demon was about to escape beyond it.
