Chapter 668 Demon Lord, Take My Sword Strike

With a mere thought, an immense, illusory Sun Dial suddenly appeared high in the heavens.

The Sun Dial emitted countless transparent ripples, sending waves spreading through the void. Within a hundred-li radius, the flow of time instantly slowed to a near-standstill.

Fang Cheng waved his wide sleeve, retracting the Ten Thousand Demons Forbidden God Talisman. He then furiously channeled all his Magical Power and pointed a finger at the strange light within the Celestial Demon Mist.

In an instant, the strange light of the Celestial Demon Mist within the hundred-li void suddenly fell into a bizarre space.

Around the Demon Fog, the energies of earth, water, wind, and fire raged violently. The void fractured and filled with Dao traces, replaying the primordial vision of Heaven and Earth Creation.

From the outside, this hundred-li expanse of void transformed into a chaotic mass. Four colors—azure, black, white, and crimson—swirled within, completely submerging the strange light of the Celestial Demon Mist.

Then, the hundred-li void suddenly collapsed inward. It shrank continuously, and in the blink of an eye, it compressed into a chaotic sphere a hundred zhang in size, hanging high in the sky. The compression then stalled, and the sphere began to pulsate unstably, looking as if it would violently explode at any moment.

Fang Cheng’s expression was grave. The Yin Yang Vortex in his Qi Sea spun rapidly, gushing forth a boundless, ocean-like torrent of Magical Power to continue fueling the "Primordial Void" technique.

The chaotic sphere abruptly shrank again, becoming only ten zhang in size. Streaks of black lightning flickered and arced around it, emitting a world-destroying power.

"Get back!"

Fang Cheng’s expression suddenly changed as he barked at the four women in the Taixu Cloud Tower.

The next moment, a world-shaking boom resounded between heaven and earth as a boundless, mighty force descended from the sky and struck the chaotic sphere.

BOOM!

The chaotic sphere exploded.

Jia Yin activated the Golden Radiance Treasure Lotus, enveloping the Taixu Cloud Tower and flying swiftly into the distant sky. However, their vision was filled with a dark, heavy miasma, like countless layers of dense, turbulent flows spinning endlessly.

She had no time for shock. She struggled to control the Treasure Lotus Magical Artifact, letting the currents carry it far away.

’That’s the Power of Heaven and Earth Origin!’

She finally understood the sheer power of the enemy Fang Cheng was facing.

’Not only can he use this world’s Power of Heaven and Earth Origin to be immortal and indestructible, but he can also turn it to his own use and escape a fatal predicament.’

Feng Yan was also horrified. ’I intended to come and help Fang Cheng, but who could have expected this? I’m a dignified Nine Tribulations Perfection Great Cultivator on the verge of ascension, armed with a Spirit Immortal’s legacy and a sixth-rank Magical Artifact, yet I can’t even intervene in their fight.’

A few moments later, Jia Yin managed to stabilize the Treasure Lotus.

The four women looked out curiously. The dim light had dissipated, but the surrounding thousand li, from the sky to the ground, was a scene of utter devastation. Turbulent void flows had become raging storms, and any cultivator below the Tribulation Realm would perish instantly upon setting foot here.

「In the distant sky.」

A white figure suddenly transformed into a wisp of ethereal smoke and shot into the sky, fleeing with unprecedented speed.

"Fang Cheng, when I have recovered my other bodies, I will return to settle the score with you!"

Only the Demon Lord’s grim, cold voice lingered between heaven and earth.

A silence fell over Heaven Crossing Hall.

After a long while, the beautiful woman from the Mystic Sky Saint Sect, the number one Mystic Sect in the Mingxiao Domain, frowned and remarked with a sigh, "They’re too strong. The Demon Lord is one thing, but is Fellow Daoist Fang truly still a Tribulation Realm Cultivator?"

She appeared to be in her early thirties, with a beautiful oval face and radiant, soulful eyes that contained a divine light. Her mature aura was suffused with majesty.

Even now, as she stared at the water mirror, she couldn’t conceal the shock in her eyes.

The others in the hall felt the same. Though their expressions varied, they were all filled with awe and trepidation.

The Divine Power displayed by both the Demon Lord and Fang Cheng in the recent battle had completely surpassed all their expectations.

"There is always a heaven beyond the heavens, and always someone stronger. I have traveled the myriad heavens for many years, but only today do I realize I am still just a frog in a well," said the tall, hunchbacked old man, Chao Huang.

"If we were to encounter either of them, we wouldn’t even have a chance to escape. I wonder if that Spirit Immortal Sealing Array can stop the Demon Lord?"

Dragon Elephant Wanderer said gently, "The Sealing Array left by those Spirit Immortals back then was derived from the Upper Realm’s Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Treasure Tower Formation. It is not so easily broken. Everyone, now that the Demon Lord has escaped, he will surely attract endless Outer Celestial Demons to taint the world. We must proceed according to plan and move the Immortal Seeds from every sect and family into the Profound Yellow Exquisite Treasure Tower Formation for safekeeping as soon as possible, to save them from annihilation."

The implication was that the low-level cultivators, Loose Cultivators, and ordinary mortals could only be left to their fate.

Everyone present was a high-ranking member of the Red Profound Association, and this strategy had been decided long ago. No one spoke; they all simply nodded in agreement.

In fact, many of them had already made arrangements. In previous years, under the pretext of "traveling for training," many talented cultivators from sects and families across the five domains had already been sent into the five Sealed Ancient Lands.

Everyone in the hall had long since deduced that once the Demon Lord began to taint the world, the Red Profound Association could likely only protect about twenty percent of the world’s cultivators. Whether the other eighty percent could survive would be entirely up to heaven’s will.

Of course, the real war would ultimately take place in the five Sealed Ancient Lands.

The seemingly safest places were, in fact, the most dangerous.

Dragon Elephant Wanderer added, "With Dun’an Daoist and Fellow Daoist Mo overseeing the refinement of the Demon-Suppressing Celestial Stele, we only need to guard the Spirit Immortal Seal. If we can hold out until the Celestial Stele is successfully refined, our work will be done."

"After watching the battle between Fellow Daoist Fang and the Demon Lord today," someone else commented, "I’m sure that with Fellow Daoist Fang standing guard, no matter how powerful the Demon Lord is, he won’t be able to interfere with the refinement of the Demon-Suppressing Celestial Stele."

...

「Mingxiao Domain.」

The vast night sky was filled with brilliant starlight.

Under the cover of night, tens of thousands of Magic Artifact Flying Ships converged into a great torrent, all flying toward a certain destination.
