Chapter 719: The Destruction of the Soul
“Oh my God, what’s up with this indescribably powerful energy?”
“The world’s shaking! It’s a sign the apocalypse is coming!”
“I have a sudden urge to get down on my knees and worship. This seventh dimension is truly extraordinary,”
“The dimension must be giving birth to a rare treasure! This is incredibly unbelievable!”
Everyone on the battlefield stopped fighting. At this moment, even a second-step Wisdom Elite felt as insignificant as an ant that dared not act rashly.
Gu Debai’s pupils shrank suddenly. He was keenly aware that endless Wisdom was roiling in the sky. There was so much of it that even he started to become frightened.
“This is impossible! How can the Wisdom ocean be more turbulent than the erratic current in the Chaos Ocean?” He was stunned and found the whole thing hard to believe.
The reason why the Eldritchs could not attack other dimensions as they pleased was that they were blocked by the Chaos Ocean and needed a lot of energy to open up the portal. This meant that the turbulence of the Wisdom in the Chaos Ocean should not have appeared in the seventh dimension.
However, at this moment, the turbulence in the seventh dimension was even more terrifying than in the Chaos Ocean! Where in the world did all this Wisdom come from?
“Wait a minute!” Gu Debai gasped and he was trembling all over. “It’s not just Wisdom ocean, but there are actually…the Origins! A lot of it!”
“What’s going on? Where did all these Origins come from? What are they planning to do?” Yun Qianshan was also shocked. His eyes were fixed in one direction and a myriad of expressions flashed across his face.
He did not have Gu Debai’s keen perception, but he could feel a terrifying change in that direction where a surging power that was enough to subvert the entire dimension was awakening. “Great opportunity! Great fortune!” His eyes were burning as he muttered to himself.
The people from the Heavenly Palace were also looking in that direction with bated breath. However, unlike the shock that the Eldritchs and the people from the fourth dimension were feeling, they were actually thinking about the expert.
“Only the expert can cause such a sensation.”
“I’m not even surprised at any of the changes anymore since I know the expert’s in charge.”
“That energy is so powerful. I expect no less from the expert!”
“Was the expert giving instructions again?”
Suddenly everyone turned their heads to look in another direction as if having sensed something. There, a dusty figure was rushing over. He was rugged and fierce, but he was wearing a robe and looked a little nondescript.
They were shocked when they saw Lord Demon.
“He’s still alive?”
“How is it possible for an ant to survive an attack from a group of elephants?”
“What happened to the others? There were two second-step Wisdom Elites in that group!”
“I can’t believe it… Just how strong are the people here?”
The panicking Eldritchs and the people from the fourth dimension all took a step back in unison.
“Amitabha, Lord Demon really has a deep blessing, making him able to survive any catastrophe,” said Jiechi with his hands clasped together.
Beside him, a Buddhist disciple took a gulp and said anxiously, “Abbot, I think you may have made a mistake. He isn’t rich in blessing but a fiend who can take down all his enemies!”
“I used to find his experience a joke, but then, I realized that I was a joke.”
“I’m sorry, Lord Demon. Please, don’t come near me.”
All colors drained out of the disciples’ faces as they retreated with their palms clasped together.
Gu Debai looked at Lord Demon coldly and asked him majestically, “Where’s Gu Zhe?”
“He’s been turned into ashes,” said Lord Demon.
If he was afraid of Gu Debai before, he was not afraid now, not after he had witnessed an existence that was 10 million times more terrifying than Gu Debai. Not to mention that the people from the seventh dimension were no longer at a disadvantage in the current situation.
His answer shocked everyone.
Gu Debai’s eyes widened. “Gu Zhe…is dead?”
“Of course! Whoever dares to chase me will die from my wrath! He’s not the only dead one. The entire team’s been wiped out!” said Lord Demon triumphantly.
“Zheng Shan’s dead too?” asked Yun Qianshan with disbelief.
This was too ridiculous! How could two second-step Wisdom Elites die just like that?
Suddenly, a thought flashed inside Yun Qianshan’s mind. There was a possibility that the master who had entered the state of ultimate existence had finally made a move.
Sure enough, they should not delve too deep into the seventh dimension. This kind of existence was really overwhelming. They needed to tread carefully from now on.
Seeing everyone shocked by him, Lord Demon started gloating even more. A flash of inspiration struck his mind and it suddenly occurred to him that the expert said they were going to have a party because of the tragic death of all those wild game animals. He was the one who led Gu Zhe and the others to the expert’s place. He had to find a way to make up for his crimes.
He immediately took out the book of Buddhist sutras and waved it in front of the Eldritchs and the people from the fourth dimension. “Don’t you want this book? Well, come and get it!”
Gu Debai arched his eyebrow and asked Yun Qianshan, “What do you think?”
“I think he’s bluffing. You’ll definitely be able to take him down easily,” said Yun Qianshan while thinking. ‘What do I think? I think you should die! Do you really think I’ll cooperate with you when you’ve stolen our precious Origins?’
Gu Debai glanced at Yun Qianshan and thought, ‘This guy’s definitely up to no good.’ He smiled coldly and said, “I don’t want the book anymore. Why don’t you go get it?”
“I’m more interested in the incident just now so I’d rather put the book aside first,” said Yun Qianshan.
“Me, too,” said Gu Debai with a scoff.
The Heavenly Palace people gathered around Lord Demon, wanting to find out exactly what was going on.
“Did you go to the expert’s?” asked Cultivator Junjun. In the entire seventh dimension, only the expert could annihilate a lineup like that.
“It’s true that I did go. You should’ve seen what the expert did. He raised his hand ever so gently and the group immediately perished without a sound,” described Lord Demon. Then, his voice turned weak as he said, “But…it seems like I caused him some trouble, too.”
“What? What did you do?”
“Did you break him out of his state?”
“Was the commotion caused by the expert’s anger?”
“There’s no way you’re getting out alive if you broke the expert out of his state.”
“Tell us everything that happened in detail… Now!”
Everyone was suddenly anxious.
“No, no. I didn’t break him out of his state.” Lord Demon waved his hand again and again, and then said, “It’s just that the group of game animals raised by the expert has been killed. The expert seemed a bit sad, but then the expert said he’ll hold a dinner party.”
Everyone let out a deep sigh of relief.
“Good, good. He wasn’t disrupted out of his state.”
“Gah! We’re too weak! The game animals needn’t die if we’re stronger!”
“We’ve let him down.”
“We have to make it up to him!”
“By the way, isn’t the party a good thing? We can catch more game animals and bring them back to him!”
Their eyes were immediately fixed on the people from the fourth dimension, for among them, there were quite a few demons.
At this time, the Eldritchs and the people from the fourth dimension saw that they had lost their upper hand. They no longer wanted to engage themselves in the battle. Instead, they wanted to go to the place where the disturbance had just occurred. Just when they were about to leave, they heard a loud shout, “Stop!”
Daji and Fire Phoenix locked their auras on them and a surging oppressive force weighed them down. Daji walked out slowly with a catwalk and said coldly, “Did I say you can come and go as you please? What do you take us for?”
Yun Qianshan frowned and sneered. “What? Don’t tell me you want to continue fighting us!”
“If that’s the case, we’ll fight you to the very end!” shouted Gu Debai.
Blackie pointed to the demons from the fourth dimension and said, “What we’re asking for is very simple, leave some game animals as compensation before leaving!”
Yun Qianshan refused without even considering the proposal. “Impossible! What do you take us for?”
“You can all stay then.” Daji appeared above them all and her voice was like ice, freezing their hearts and souls.
Yun Qianshan’s face twisted with rage as he roared, “Don’t push your luck! If it’s a battle you want, it’s a battle you’ll get!” He looked at the group of Eldritchs and said, “Brother Debai, let’s kill them all together.”
However, Gu Debai smiled slightly and put some distance between them. “This is a matter between you and the people of the seventh dimension. It has nothing to do with me,” he said with a smirk. The Eldritchs were not foolish enough to help them when Blackie had specifically said they wanted game animals from the fourth dimension. In fact, they wished they would all die in the battle.
Hatred raged in Yun Qianshan’s heart. He gritted his teeth and said to Lord Angel, “Tianhua, it seems like it’s going to be a long and hard day for us.”
Lord Angel immediately shook his head and said, “I disagree. I agree with offering the game animals to the people of the seventh dimension.” He was, after all, a spy, so he might as well play it to his advantage. In fact, he would agree wholeheartedly if all the demons in the entire fourth dimension offered themselves up to the expert.
Yun Qianshan stared at Lord Angel blankly. That was certainly a huge blow to him. “How can you say such a spineless thing? Are you the Tianhua I know?”
“I’m just saying it like it is. Under these circumstances, there’s no way we can win against the people of the seventh dimension at all. In addition, the Eldritchs are watching from the sidelines. The best solution for you now is to surrender.” Lord Angel looked calm and continued to say indifferently, “It’s your choice if you insist on fighting, but I definitely won’t join you.”
“Why you…” The look in Yun Qianshan’s eyes ranged from shock to disappointment, to depression, then sadness and helplessness. He might as well surrender now that no one was willing to help him.
Finally, he sighed and said, “Go ahead and pick the game animals you want, but please, don’t go overboard.”
Nanan cheered and said, “Yay! It’s game time!”
Dragin had her eye on some of them for a long time. “Bring me two three-legged chickens. I’m gonna make chicken wings out of them!”
“One chaos divine sheep for hotpot.”
“One whole pig. Its flesh and trotters look delicious!”
In the end, the Heavenly Palace people happily picked 10 game animals as if they were ordering food while the people from the fourth dimension seethed with anger. The demon clan especially had tears in their eyes as they watched their clan members being taken away.
Yun Qianshan trembled with anger as he said loudly, “This is humiliation we won’t take lying down. We’ll surely make the entire seventh dimension pay in kind!”
Many demons cried out sadly, “We’re being bullied by the people in the seventh dimension. O demon ancestors, where are you? Come and deliver us from these people now!”
“Let’s go and take a look over there. Maybe there’s a big opportunity for revenge there!” Then, the Eldritchs, Yun Qianshan, and others went to investigate the place where the big commotion occurred.
Meanwhile, Daji and Fire Phoenix had already returned to the four-part architecture with the game animals and bumped into Li Nianfan who was just on his way home, too. They immediately went up to greet him with happiness flashing in their eyes.
“Master.”
“Brother Li.”
“Oh, you’re all back.” Li Nianfan also smiled when he saw them, and then his eyes lit up when he saw the game animals behind them. “Well done for bringing back so much game meat. I was planning on holding a party.”
Daji looked at battle remains around him and bit her lip. “Master, it’s all our fault that everything here was destroyed.”
“Nonsense. In fact, I should be thanking you. We would’ve been dead if it wasn’t for the spells you and Fire Phoenix left me,” said Li Nianfan immediately.
“You’re too kind,” said Daji and Fire Phoenix shyly. ‘You’re the one who’s amazing…’
The game animals that were brought back had already accepted their fates and did not resist at all. They looked at Li Nianfan silently and felt puzzled. No matter how they saw it, this man looked like a mortal. Why did these people respect him so much?
Then, they looked around again and a familiar smell penetrated their noses. They followed the smell and saw a big pit in front of them. They became completely stunned when they saw the lumpy things in the pit.
“They’re the same as the Origins we stole!”
“So this is where all those Origins came from. Aren’t they being a little careless by putting them here?”
“Wait a minute. This setup, this smell, and this shape… Why does it look so much like a manure pit?”
“No way! I’ve been eating this all along?”
Their minds trembled, unable to accept this fact. They started to roar but what came out of their open mouths was the sound of ordinary beasts.
“Oh god, how can you be so cruel?”
“Why would you show us something like this before our deaths?”
“Why can’t you let us die peacefully?”
“I’m breaking down. This is really destruction to my soul!”
