Above This, There Is Heaven!
Buzz--
Suddenly, the Heaven-Reaching Jianmu surged to a height of hundreds of millions of feet!
The two hundred and six branches grew incredibly thick, and strange patterns on them emitted a dazzling black light. The leaves on the branches were swaying wildly!
At this moment, the Heaven-Reaching Jianmu is truly a divine tree reaching for the heavens.
It is as if it is rooted in the universe, spanning the starry sky, and is hundreds of millions of miles away!
Each leaf is a small world, and a single branch can destroy that world.
Its power can be described as terrifying.
The fourth level of the Heaven and Earth Furnace, Divine Ability Secret Method, is where the origins of the Three Thousand Great Dao swirl around the Primordial Expanse Supreme Treasure, the Primordial Expanse Glazed Pagoda, Primordial Expanse Supreme Treasure Tongtian, unleashes its power!
This is the true strength that Lin Yunji unleashed.
With the support of numerous forces, Lin Yunji was now like a supreme ruler.
He stood tall amidst the cosmos, yet seemed to control that cosmos. Even when facing the Devil Cosmos Sword that swept across the starry sky, he remained fearless, a cold smile even playing on his lips.
"Cut!"
The next second, Lin Yunji suddenly let out a low shout.
As soon as he finished speaking, all 206 branches of the Heaven-Reaching Jianmu began to twitch wildly, as if countless whips were lashing out fiercely in the void!
Any sword Sword Qi that came near was instantly reduced to ashes!
The branches and twigs disappeared into the void, as if an infinite power was constantly extending, seemingly possessing the power to reach the cosmos!
In an instant, branches of the Heaven-Reaching Jianmu suddenly appeared from the side and wrapped around the Devil Cosmos Sword!
The two hundred and six slips of paper were as solid as a rock, and the Devil Cosmos Sword could no longer move.
Even though the Lord of the Devil Abyss immediately activated his Law Power, the Devil Cosmos Sword was completely unable to break free.
The Devil Cosmos Sword trembled and cried out, but could only let out a trapped beast's roar, which was completely futile.
Damn it!
Upon witnessing this scene, the Lord of the Devil Abyss felt a chill run down his spine.
He never expected that Lin Yunji would become so powerful after unleashing his full strength!
This is fucking not Sixth-Stage Hunyuan Great Dao Sage!
Even a Ninth-Stage Hunyuan Great Dao Sage wouldn't have this much combat power.
No... it's not just the Ninth-Stage Hunyuan Great Dao Sage!
If the Devil Cosmos Sword remains trapped and the battle continues, the main body will undoubtedly be defeated!
As thoughts flashed through his mind, the Lord of the Devil Abyss Abyss's expression gradually became ferocious, and roars echoed in his heart.
Without further hesitation, he reached out with both hands—
In an instant, he drew out black glazed chains from the vast starry sky!
The chains, wreathed in swirling demonic energy, lashed out swiftly at Lin Yunji.
Judging from this posture, it seems they intend to beat Lin Yunji until his Primordial Spirit is destroyed.
Hurry!
However, when the chains struck Lin Yunji's side, a burst of sparks suddenly erupted.
Under the defense of the Primordial Expanse Glazed Pagoda, it was impossible to do anything to Lin Yunji.
"How is that possible?!"
"I refuse to believe it! Is your strength really that great?"
Seeing Lin Yunji effortlessly block his attack again, the Lord of the Devil Abyss couldn't help but roar repeatedly.
He unleashed a continuous barrage of attacks, drawing upon supreme magical power to gather countless demonic sounds.
With the Long River of Time as its chain, it whips up the endless starry sky.
The Lord of the Devil Abyss unleashed a variety of methods, but what gradually drove him to despair was that these attacks, which seemed to be capable of destroying the world, could not break through Lin Yunji's defenses at all!
The Primordial Expanse Glazed Pagoda was like a giant tortoise shell, indestructible.
At this moment, even the Lord of the Devil Abyss was on the verge of madness.
He tried every trick in the book, but still couldn't get rid of Lin Yunji. What kind of Divine Ability power would it take to eliminate Lin Yunji?
Gradually, the Lord of the Devil Abyss also suddenly understood.
Why did Lin Yunji obtain so many treasures?
It turns out this guy was simply blessed, a being of destiny.
It is an existence that is destined by the Unseen and an inevitable trend; how could such an existence not obtain countless treasures!
Thinking of this, the Lord of the Devil Abyss grew increasingly insane.
"Since the birth of my sentience, I have neither revered the heavens nor feared the Great Dao."
"Where my true self resides is the true Dao!"
"What I have done is the inevitable trend of the times!"
"No matter how much favor you, Lin Yunji, receive today, I will defy your will!"
"Roar--!"
With a hysterical roar, the Lord of the Devil Abyss once again surged his demonic energy, sweeping towards Lin Yunji!
Lin Yunji merely smiled coldly and went to meet him.
The two sides clashed once again in the cosmos, and the battle was exceptionally fierce.
Despite having an invincible defense, Lin Yunji easily gained the upper hand and had an overwhelming advantage.
But the Lord of the Devil Abyss is, after all, a supreme being at the Eighth-Stage Hunyuan Great Dao Sage.
It won't be so easy for him to completely eliminate it.
This battle was so fierce that the heavens and earth were plunged into darkness, and the endless expanse of the universe was shattered into nothingness.
Countless worlds spanned the cosmos, only to be easily destroyed and reduced to cosmic ashes.
The number of lives lost in the aftermath of their battle is countless, too many to be estimated even if measured in trillions.
This war lasted for a full thousand years!
Yet, the outcome remains undecided.
After a thousand-year-old war, Lin Yunji remained as imposing as ever, his expression calm, and he even grew stronger with each battle.
In contrast, the Lord of the Devil Abyss was already disheveled and his clothes were in disarray.
The overwhelming demonic energy that had been surrounding him gradually dissipated, and his aura began to weaken, like a demon god about to fall.
Upon closer inspection, one can also discover that a huge black hole has appeared above the heart of the Lord of the Devil Abyss.
No blood flowed from that black hole, but seven-colored flames burned within, making it incurable even for the Lord of the Devil Abyss.
This shows that although the battle was undecided, the Lord of the Devil Abyss was actually at a disadvantage throughout.
It's only a matter of time before he's completely wiped out.
All around, countless worlds have been destroyed, and countless voids have been reduced to nothingness.
"Old man from the Devil Abyss, it's time to end this..."
Suddenly, Lin Yunji took a deep breath and spoke calmly to the Lord of the Devil Abyss.
Buzz--
Lin Yunji pointed into the air, and the Primordial Expanse Glazed Pagoda above his head suddenly flew out, instantly arriving above the Lord of the Devil Abyss.
Boundless seven-colored divine light suddenly descended, bursting forth with dazzling brilliance, completely enveloping the Lord of the Devil Abyss.
It was as if it had sealed off the surrounding time and space, and even the three thousand origins!
If at his peak, the Lord of the Devil Abyss could break through the blockade with unparalleled power and escape into the void.
However, he was already severely injured and was further sealed by the Primordial Expanse Supreme Treasure, the Primordial Expanse Glazed Pagoda, making it extremely difficult for him to break free.
It felt like being in a swamp, making it extremely difficult to move.
At this point, the Lord of the Devil Abyss was doomed to defeat.
Moreover, it was a complete defeat!
However, he lost without regret.
Because during this millennium-long war, he never gained the slightest advantage.
Every time we resist, it's so arduous.
If he hadn't cultivated for countless eons and mastered numerous Divine Ability powers and techniques, he would probably have been killed long ago.
After years of desperate resistance, they still couldn't escape defeat.
At this moment, the Lord of the Devil Abyss withdrew his aura, and his expression became calm.
Without any desperate struggle or roaring, he suddenly grinned, as if he had seen through life and death, completely indifferent.
"At the time of his birth, a demonic voice was heard from him, saying, ' Lord of the Devil Abyss.'"
"The Lord of the Devil Abyss is the origin of demons, their representative, and the master of all matters concerning the Great Demon."
"I, the One, uphold the will of the demon, roam freely through heaven and earth."
"Recalling the vastness, who will determine the fate of the world?"
The Lord of the Devil Abyss spoke calmly, as if recounting past events, or perhaps chanting his entire life.
The words became so understated, as if viewed and spoken from the perspective of an outsider.
Finally, he looked at Lin Yunji and smiled again.
"Fellow Lin Yunji, you have indeed received great favor."
"However, whether it's you or me, we're nothing more than pawns in the hands of the rulers of the Origin Realm."
"If one wishes to transcend the chessboard and achieve true immortality, there is still much, much more to be won."
"Those who fail to become Supreme Primordial Unity are ultimately just ants in the lower realms."
Only by following the natural order and grasping the essence of the world can one truly understand this universe.
"Perhaps things will be even more exciting up there."
As he spoke, the Lord of the Devil Abyss's voice became even more peaceful.
In those Chaos eyes, it was as if they had pierced through the endless barriers of the world, glimpsing the scenery on the other side...
His eyes revealed an endless longing.
"... That's interesting."
Upon hearing the Lord of the Devil Abyss's words, Lin Yunji revealed a thoughtful expression.
"This is getting more and more interesting."
The next second, he chuckled and muttered to himself.
The universe is the chessboard, and who are the chess pieces...?
The Lord of the Devil Abyss understood, and so did Lin Yunji.
"Bring it on."
Seemingly sensing that Lin Yunji understood, the Lord of the Devil Abyss suppressed his smile and spoke frankly.
Buzz--!
As the Lord of the Devil Abyss finished speaking, Lin Yunji waved his hand, and the Primordial Expanse Glazed Pagoda descended to suppress him!
Seven-colored divine light burst forth, and the Primordial Expanse Glazed Pagoda, carrying boundless beauty, suppressed the Lord of the Devil Abyss in an instant!
The latter's physical body instantly disintegrated into countless fragments, turning into cosmic ashes and completely disappearing!
The Lord of the Devil Abyss, this supreme being of the Eighth-Stage Hunyuan Great Dao Sage...
In the end, he fell!
This epic battle that shook the universe came to a slow end with Lin Yunji's victory.
However, Lin Yunji knew very well that his journey was not over yet, but had only just begun.
Because after defeating the Lord of the Devil Abyss, he learned of an even more powerful and incredible being.
There, there exists a group of beings, born to be demons, born to be righteous.
Their every move exudes power.
The great trend of Heavenly Dao, the great trend of the Great Dao, and even the great trend of the universe.
Those who control the situation are treated as masters.
"One day, I will go there and make my own trip."
After muttering to himself, Lin Yunji didn't linger any longer and decided to return to the Primordial World on a whim.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing the random system mission: injuring the Lord of the Devil Abyss!"
"Gained 50 billion Faith Points and 200 billion Breakthrough Points!"
"Ding! Divine Ability Secret Method: Heaven and Earth Furnace activated, stripping away 100 billion Breakthrough Points!"
