Chapter 923: Unexpected Change
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Fang Yuan had been Dream Soldier Master, and his Eight Gates Sword Array had once dominated Da Qian, so he had done deep research in the Dao of Array.
Although he had not discovered anything wrong, he felt that there had to be something hidden in the array on the ground.
“Haha… this much nomological power is enough for me to progress further in my Dao path!”
Arthur and Heinze did not feel that anything was wrong at all. They were intoxicated in voraciously absorbing the nomological power from the Derivatives.
The flowing lights in the crack gradually disappeared, and a small stone rolled down.
Kaboom!
Almost immediately, the entire mountain peak started collapsing
Even Fang Yuan felt a huge ‘vacuum’.
It was the nomological power in a region after being consumed to the limit, bringing about such a strange feeling.
“It’s coming!” The Lord of the Void’s voice shook with excitement.
“Has it appeared?”
Fang Yuan focused even more but did not find anything.
“Hmm?”
Suddenly, his True Spirit trembled, and he immediately looked up.
A stream of light reaching from the ground to the sky suddenly appeared.
‘It’ blended into this world perfectly. Numerous spots of light fell down as it shook slightly.
Each of these light spots had its own peculiarity, and it was enough to make a huge pile of Derivatives.
But at this moment, all the Demon Gods were attracted to the Great Dao, disregarding all else.
It was unique and bizarre, and it only existed in a moment.
“Everything within the world has laws governing its existence. Everything will change with time. Everything is impermanent… It is indeed the Impermanence Great Dao!” Fang Yuan sighed.
“The Impermanence Great Dao has really appeared!”
Arthur and Heinze were excited but perturbed at the same time.
“Great! Four Mysterious Seals Array! Everyone, please do your best to support the formation fully!” the Lord of the Void shouted hysterically. “We shouldn’t hesitate! The array has our energy, and it’s definitely as powerful as a Demon God! This will make it possible for us to seal and subdue the Great Dao!”
“Hmm?”
Fang Yuan raised his right hand and felt a strong absorbing force coming from the array.
If he only had around twenty to thirty percent of his strength like Arthur and Heinze, he would feel very painful.
However, now he was at half strength, enabling him to not only feel very comfortable but also have the energy to observe the development of the situation.
Buzz buzz!
The array activated. Even though each Demon God only had twenty to thirty percent of their original strength, their combined power was comparable to a peak-condition Demon God.
The strong forces converged, and even the Impermanence Great Dao stagnated for a moment.
“Now!”
The Lord of the Void roared, and countless black and slim arms that looked like seaweed extended from the array to twine around the Impermanence Great Dao tightly.
At that moment, almost everyone on the planet looked up at the total solar eclipse in confusion.
“This is impossible! There wasn’t even any forecast!”
“It must be my imagination!”
“Disaster… is it the end of the world?”
Upheaval! The end of the world!
“Unexpectedly, the Four Mysterious Seals Array is so powerful…” Fang Yuan sighed in amazement. He raised his head and looked at the stream of light.
As a Great Dao of this world, it was as powerful as a Demon God at their peak condition. Even if it was temporarily restrained at this moment, the Lord of the Void would absolutely not be able to subdue it on his own.
“Impermanence! Impermanence!”
A strange voice echoed.
Numerous black arms broke one by one, and a stream of light bloomed from the Great Dao.
Poof!
Fang Yuan and the others groaned, and some even spit out blood.
In their senses, the Impermanence Great Dao was like a powerful dragon trying to escape from the array.
This led to the Four Mysterious Seals Array having to rely on absorbing Fang Yuan and the rest’s energy like a vampire to maintain itself.
“Damn it! Lord of the Void, I can only help for three more minutes!” Arthur shouted.
“At most three more minutes. We won’t help you any longer! If you want to subdue the Impermanence Great Dao, you have to do it within three minutes!” Heinze nodded in agreement.
Fang Yuan remained silent, but his eyes were full of energy.
“Good!”
The Lord of the Void roared.
He was still possessing his favorite Terminator Number One’s body.
He jumped into the air and faced the Impermanence Great Dao directly.
Rumble!
The array rumbled, and a brilliant light flared, ejecting reddish-black flames.
“Damn it! Two more minutes!” Arthur and Heinze yelled.
“I can finally see you… Impermanence Great Dao!” The Lord of the Void was wild with joy. “This time, I will thoroughly obtain you!”
“Not good!” Heinze and Arthur suddenly felt immense danger and immediately left.
However, the Four Mysterious Seals Array suddenly changed. Streams of thick, blood-red light rose like cocoons of light from three of the array centers and dragged them back to their original position, preventing them from moving.
“Lord of the Void, what are you doing?” Heinze roared.
This array brought together the power of four Demon Gods. This was equivalent to four Demon Gods joining hands to block them. Even if it was only for a short moment, in this short moment, they were unable to do anything.
“What am I doing? Refining the Impermanence Great Dao of course!”
The Lord of the Void laughed.
He was more talkative than usual, possibly because of the smooth execution of his plan. “Do you know why we’re unable to refine the Impermanence Great Dao? It isn’t because it’s as powerful as a Demon God, but because the world does not allow it!
“How could this world allow us to take away a Great Dao it gave birth to? It’s the same logic as parents seeing you grab their children. They would put up a desperate struggle! Therefore, I must pay something in exchange. And what would make it give up one of its Great Dao? Naturally other Great Daos!
“As long as I sacrifice the three of you to this world, I’ll be able to refine the Impermanence Great Dao and safely depart!
“There is no need to struggle! The array is now full of your own energy. That is, I am using your own energy to restrict you!”
…
The Lord of the Void laughed loudly after telling them his plan.
Obviously, he had planned out everything before agreeing to attack the Primary Color headquarters.
Although the Impermanence Great Dao itself was difficult to subdue, and the greatest difficulty was the world!
Therefore, there had to be one or more Demon Gods sacrificed in exchange for the Great Dao.
Evidently, his reasoning was correct.
The resistance of the Impermanence Great Dao became weaker, so the array could direct more energy into refining the three Demon Gods.
A layer of dark-red flame started to invade the light cocoons, making Heinze’s and Arthur’s complexions undergo huge changes. “Lord of the Void, we’ll never let you off! Even if we die today, we will resurrect in the future and definitely get our revenge!”
“Haha… are you stupid?” The Lord of the Void was still ecstatic. “I may not be able to refine your Great Daos. In fact, your Dao paths are useless to me, but this world won’t let you go. The most important thing to sacrificing Demon Gods is sacrificing their Dao path. So you don’t need to struggle and don’t think about running away anymore. My array will completely extract your Great Daos!”
“You are too ruthless, Lord of the Void!”
“I hate…”
Arthur and Heinze kept roaring and screaming.
Under the dark-red flame, traces of their Great Daos were extracted from them, forming two illusory Great Daos.
As Demon Gods, they should not have been so weak.
Unfortunately, under the world’s suppression, they only had around twenty to thirty percent of their original strength. Coupled with the fact that they had already injected too much energy into the array earlier, their limited strength was further weakened. In addition, the array was receiving the Demon Gods’ own energy to confine them in turn.
Even though Arthur and Heinze still had some Derivatives with them, they were unable to use them.
“Wait, this method of stripping Great Daos and the atmosphere is familiar…” Fang Yuan suddenly shouted, “Lord of the Void, are you colluding with Demon Supremacy Wish Fulfillment?!”
How could it be so easy to extract a Demon God’s Great Dao?
The Lord of the Void being able to do this made Fang Yuan associate it with other things.
“Yep! It wasn’t easy for you to think of this. I did indeed make a deal with Demon Supremacy Wish Fulfillment. Unfortunately, he doesn’t trust me fully…” The Lord of the Void sighed. “When you die, the true master of the Spiritual Realm will be either me or Demon Supremacy Wish Fulfillment!”
He regarded the three Demon Gods as already dead.
“This makes me feel really… unpleasant! Lord of the Void, do you think that I’m going to die today?”
Fang Yuan roared, and the red lizard fell from his arm.
Roar! Roar!
The next moment.
An earthshaking roar resounded.
The array at Fang Yuan’s position suddenly exploded, and a red dragon appeared.
It looked like a typical Western dragon—a lizard with a giant pair of wings.
Flapping its wings and causing formidable airwaves, it brought Snow into the air.
“D-Demon God?! This is your body? A red dragon? How do you have more than half of your strength?” The Lord of the Void shouted with surprise.
Even Heinze, who had been in this world for decades, was unable to do this!
“Die!” Fang Yuan did not bother to explain. He opened his mouth, and flames burst out, burning the heavens and the earth.
