Chapter 681: Three Lives Cycle, Rift of the Aberrant Demon

“Puh…”

Facing this fierce and unparalleled punch, which seemed to shatter the entire sky and earth into fine broken threads, Daoist Mingxin’s eyes flashed with a trace of ferocity. He held the Black Lotus upright before his chest and silently chanted a spell, bowing as he worshipfully fell.

It turned out to be an attack against an attack.

“Three Lives Reincarnation Technique.”

A burst of black light, exceeding the speed of human divine thought, instantly enveloped the area of a hundred meters.

The fist hit the Black Lotus, producing a cracking sound.

At this moment, Daoist Mingxin felt as if his heart was shattered.

This Black Lotus was nurtured into an Exotic Treasure Lotus Seed over nearly three hundred years, a culmination of his life’s efforts, solely to refine it into his Lifebound Magical Treasure after cultivating the Law Dao Alchemy.

Now, before the final step of Law Integration, facing such a mountain-crumbling, sea-destroying heavy punch, it showed countless cracks, seemingly on the verge of breaking.

‘At least a century’s achievement lost.’

That was tolerable, but Daoist Mingxin distinctly sensed that even the Law Void Alchemy he had just cultivated, though not fully consolidated, was about to be scattered by that punch.

Nearly knocked down in rank.

‘Such a ruthless boy. Luckily, the Reincarnation Law from the Three Lives Nether Book is already in play. Let this old Taoist see whether you were a pig or a dog in your previous life. Not tormenting you a thousand times won’t ease my heartache and hate.’

Daoist Mingxin thought viciously.

Blood trickled from the corners of his eyes and mouth, while he sneered coldly.

His Divine Will turned and merged into the black curtain of a hundred meters.

The mystery of the cultivation technique recorded in the Three Lives Nether Book was unlike anything Mingxin had seen or heard.

Consuming a massive amount of magical power and spiritual power, it could replay the opponent’s greatest regret from their previous lives.

Moreover, it could transform into the opponent’s strongest force or power from their previous life.

Then, it slaughtered the opponent a thousand times, until the soul was extinguished.

It was both extremely sinister and extremely mysterious.

Furthermore, this Daoist Technique, which he had just cultivated, was barely wielded using the Black Lotus Magical Treasure. It contained a high-end strand of Power of Reincarnation Law. Not to mention cultivators at the Dao Foundation Level, even Masters at the Dao Alchemy Level, if caught off guard, would meet a bitter death.

Know this, it was a soul-targeting deadly attack.

And, it wasn’t an illusion technique; it was a law capable of directly wounding and killing.

If you believe you are dead, then you really are dead; that is the law.

Cultivators in the Star Luo Sea Domain all knew: the physical body was easy to cultivate, but the soul was difficult because any soul-targeting ultimate move or deadly attack was extremely rare and incredibly difficult to deal with.

Ordinary people couldn’t resist; they could only await their fate.

Chen Ping’s vision blurred, as if Heaven and Earth had changed.

The punch had just landed, and as its immense power exploded outward, he hadn’t had time to follow through with another strike. He suddenly felt a needle-like killing intent aimed straight at the center of his brow from all directions.

His brow, throat, heart, abdomen, and weak spots on his back—all were bristling with chill.

Within a fraction of a second, he reacted.

There were snipers… assault troopers… and artillery, all targeting him, enemies encircling him from all directions. In the corners of the rooms, deep within the woods, soldiers dressed in camouflage were ready to ambush him.

“So, this is the place.”

Chen Ping almost groaned from deep in his throat, a scene that had appeared countless times in his mind returning at the midnight hour.

Every time he reviewed it mentally, he felt he could have done better, could have escaped this inevitable fate.

Yet, he sometimes had to admit, given his past cultivation of the Eight Trigrams Fist and Spring Leg hadn’t reached the pinnacle at that time, even if he escaped the first wave of attacks, he couldn’t evade the second or third wave.

The reason was simple.

This wasn’t about one or two enemies, but a human sea; kill one batch, and another would come until he was slain on the spot.

Such is the power of the system, the power of the Guo Family, which couldn’t be resisted by any individual.

‘So, the technique Daoist Mingxin wielded with the Black Lotus Magical Treasure is an illusion realm? No, at my current Tier Eight Arc Soul Realm, illusions can’t deceive me.’

‘Therefore, this must be a previous life scenario recurred and is a Law Domain skill.’

With that thought, Chen Ping felt a slight shiver in his heart, recognizing what this was.

In this world of cultivation, at the Dao Foundation Level, it was just laying the foundation, termed the Foundation of the Great Dao, without much magic.

However, reaching the Law Dao Alchemy level marked the way of the Great Dao; Divine Will began to merge into magical power, and enlightening the Heaven and Earth Laws started to manifest into strange abilities, turning impossibilities into possibilities, in the eyes of all living beings, this step was truly an Immortal being.

They could be called Masters.

Masters were not ordinary people.

They had formally taken a step onto the path of immortality.

In previous life’s Dao Book, there was indeed a saying, claiming, “Swallowing a Golden Core, my fate is no longer ruled by the heavens.”

Although Daoist Mingxin hadn’t fully transformed, he was considered a half-step Master, having refined the Void Pill.

Nevertheless, a half-step Master was still a Master; the rest was just a matter of time and practice.

Essentially, he had already been able to touch laws, control laws, and perform various bizarre actions.

Though he had struck with a punch, he had also taken a hit; it was quite fair.

Yet, this Law Domain, with its recurrence of previous life scenarios, used the military for encirclement—could it be that in his heart, the world’s strongest force was firearms?
