Chapter 544: Chapter 544: Destruction Demon Heart Sword Body, Sword Void Seven Transformation
Even so, Ye Tianling was still overcome by a terrifying sensation—the feeling that he was on the verge of death.
’Even though I seem to have the upper hand right now, how long can this last?’
Sure enough, the moment this thought arose, the Devouring Power of the Dark Abyss invaded his Life Force once more, causing it to deplete at an even faster rate.
One day.
Another day.
Day by day, his Life Force rapidly depleted.
In just a few breaths, it was down to fifteen days.
THUD—
His heart sank, and Ye Tianling was overcome with the feeling that he was completely finished.
’I’m really going to die—’
Ye Tianling’s heart trembled as the thought grew wildly, completely consuming his mind.
’What on earth have I overlooked?’
’How can I possibly overcome this crisis?’
Ye Tianling was completely unable to calm down.
His Life Force was rapidly depleting.
His Mechanical Heart had evolved once, and his Space-Time Soul-locking Tower had been opened to the Thirty-Sixth Layer. He had also awakened legacies regarding the Soul-Slaying Dao and the Space-Time Tracing Method, as well as a more advanced legacy for the Xuanyuan Dragon-Controlling Immortal Sword Technique. Yet, Ye Tianling still had no solution.
His Life Force depleted once again, down to the equivalent of four days.
But Ye Tianling remained in a frenzied state, completely unable to calm down.
’The Chaos Destiny Scripture!’
At that moment, Ye Tianling knew he had to calm down.
In this state, he channeled all his thoughts into visualizing the Chaos Destiny Scripture.
He took all his chaotic, stray thoughts and transformed them into a turbulent stream of Chaos, which coalesced into a chaotic cosmic Totem.
"The stars of the cosmos are the Taiji, transforming so that destiny is born from Chaos. Visualize the expansion of the cosmos, witness the initial formation of Chaos."
"Primordial Chaos is when the Primordial Qi has not yet divided. Chaos is one, the beginning of Primordial Qi..."
At that moment, Ye Tianling grew still.
The depletion of his life did not slow, but Ye Tianling’s perception of himself and the world around him accelerated to the point that the flow of Time seemed to slow to a crawl.
BOOM—
With this explosion in his Meditation, Ye Tianling obliterated all his chaotic thoughts, and his mind instantly became utterly still.
At the same time, Ye Tianling realized what he had overlooked.
Parasite!
Since his Parasite ability could latch onto life... and since all things could become life... then why couldn’t Parasite latch onto the Dark Abyss itself?
BOOM—
As this thought arose, Ye Tianling gave up all resistance. He manifested the Law of Parasite and instantly transformed himself into countless Soul Energy Particles. He then began to use his Soul Qi to latch onto the vast, dark Devouring Energy.
At first, Ye Tianling was nearly assimilated into the Dao, on the verge of being utterly annihilated by this Devouring Power.
But gradually, just as Ye Tianling was sinking into eternal darkness, tiny sparks of fire began to ignite.
Those sparks were the very Origin Energy from within the Dark Abyss that his Parasite ability had latched onto.
Afterward, the sparks gathered, forming a ball of soul fire.
The soul fire absorbed the Dark Energy of the Dark Abyss, transforming into a Void Soul.
The Void Soul then became Ye Tianling’s Celestial Dragon Evil Soul.
After the Celestial Dragon Evil Soul finished coalescing, his other two souls also gradually split off and took form.
The Three Souls merged into one, and Ye Tianling’s physical body coalesced once more.
On the Celestial Road, a dark lotus flower gradually grew, and its seed pod formed.
From within, Lotus Seeds flew out one by one, gathering together in the void.
A full ten Lotus Seeds—representing his Three Souls and Seven Spirits—converged, and Ye Tianling’s figure re-formed.
BOOM—
At that moment, the bottleneck of his Sword Void Six Transformation Realm was shattered.
He had stepped into the Sword Void Seven Transformation Realm.
His Life Force was still fixed at the level of four days.
However, his ability to exert his Battle Power had undergone an unbelievably heaven-defying transformation!
It had leaped from the previous thirty-three percent all the way to forty-five percent!
That’s right—a terrifying forty-five percent exertion of his power. It was practically a supreme, peerless shift in Battle Power!
’So this is the Law of Nirvana, rebirth, Parasite, and Creation—the very Origin of life... It seems I’m starting to understand. Because I’ve grasped an insignificant sliver of the Life Origin, my Battle Power exertion has reached this minor level of mastery.’
’The Nine Forbidden were actually just the beginning of comprehending the true Universal Laws.’
’The road ahead is still long. The Venerable Soul Curse is a universal curse of fate, a rule-based method used by the Celestial Mandate to eliminate its own loopholes. It’s like a purifying function of the Time Axis—and I am nothing but a bug in the system of the Celestial Dao.’
Ye Tianling murmured to himself.
He instantly saw through certain truths and found himself back on the Celestial Road.
The beautiful spring scenery from before had vanished.
The Celestial Road before him was now a scene of scorching summer.
A desert.
Ocean waves.
A gentle breeze brushing his face.
And a blazing sun overhead.
’Everything I encounter on the Celestial Road is a Manifestation of true life. That’s because this path I walk is a true road of destiny. This place... it’s not the periphery. It’s the true Celestial Dao Rule Domain Secret Realm. Feng Chaoge obviously has his own difficulties, which is why he couldn’t tell me the full truth directly.’
’The efforts he made have clearly touched upon many taboos... But for someone as powerful as him, what kind of existence could his enemy possibly be?’
’The changes in this world far exceed my imagination. The stronger I become and the more I master, the more I realize just how small and insignificant I truly am.’
’But, from this day forward, I, Ye Tianling, shall truly begin my rise. I have no more use for the Demon Heart Sword Body. The Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword? There’s no need for it to grow any stronger, either.’
Ye Tianling murmured. Then, with a mere thought, he pulled the withered Demon Heart Sword Body out from the Celestial Sacrifice Ancient City.
Next, he took out the Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword and, with a single thrust, stabbed it directly between the eyebrows of the Demon Heart Sword Body.
PFFT—
The Demon Heart Sword Body opened its blood-red eyes, which held a look of utter disbelief.
It was as if, in that instant, the Demon Heart Sword Body had come back to life.
Unfortunately for it, in this place, even if it retained some measure of the Power of Slaughter, it was completely unable to resist.
This world was the Celestial Dao Rule Domain Secret Realm. Here, without the Hexagram Star Disc, no Abilities could be truly utilized.
PSHHH—
A massive amount of Samadhi Celestial Fire gathered on the Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword. The Demon Heart Sword Body struggled violently as the aura of countless Venerable Soul Curse Marks manifested all over its body, bursting one by one and turning it to dust.
In the end, the Demon Heart Sword Body was reduced to tribulation ash, completely evaporated by the light of the scorching summer sun.
VMMM—
Deep within Ye Tianling’s brow, the Venerable Soul Curse on his life, which had felt like an Imprisonment, instantly loosened a great deal.
His Life Force flowed back into him.
It poured down like a gurgling Spiritual Spring.
Ye Tianling’s Life Force rapidly increased from the four-day level, instantly returning to the fifteen-day mark.
Only then did the recovery of his Life Force stop.
’It’s just as I thought. But why on earth did Ji Tianxie’s Demon Heart Sword Body plant the Venerable Soul Curse in me? Does the Little Dragon Girl know the true secret of the Mechanical Heart?’
Ye Tianling murmured, his gaze dimming slightly.
But soon, he began to walk forward once more.
He had to comprehend all the opportunities for fortune here as quickly as possible and then head to the Ten Thousand Beasts Demon Cave—which, by now, had already opened.
Perhaps in the Ten Thousand Beasts Demon Cave, the Little Dragon Girl’s secrets could finally be unearthed.
