Chapter 1173: Taking this path
Xue Ying extended his palm with it turning illusory. A maelstrom began forming within with Chaotic Origin Energy gathering at the center of the maelstrom. This maelstrom continued rotating just like how a wave rushed up onto the shore tenaciously.
Ten million waves were rushing out at the same time. There were even undercurrents stirring underneath the waves.
Various energies were either crowding out or sweeping along or pressing on one another...
This was simulated by Xue Ying after he went through the experience of traveling through the higher dimension to his best abilities-it was the best understanding he had of the Chaotic Origin Seven Strikes and the Dao of Void! It was a technique that satisfied him immensely. Even though he had another great killing move under his arsenal-a domain killing technique that was incredibly helpful, Xue Ying was more delighted over the fact that he had deepened his understanding of the 'Dao of Void'.
Although the gradual progression of the realm seemed mysterious.
In reality, what he felt most intense for was that he lacked a single step toward fusing all branches together-to reach the 'final realm'. But this single step easily clouded his vision of prodding his way towards the destination.
But with each progression in the realm, it was akin to the dispersion of some 'fog', allowing him to see more of his surroundings!
"I feel that I have improved greatly after completing this technique and is one step closer to the final realm!"
"It's just that I have already applied all my understanding during this period of time on completing this move. Hence, it'll be hard for me to improve further temporarily."
"But I do not have much time."
Xue Ying thought.
A cultivator would breakthrough after accumulating sufficient cultivation. And after that, he would require an even longer time to accumulate again! The journey towards the final realm was destined to be difficult. It required a cultivator to accumulate time after time, breaking through until the final step where the cultivator reached the pinnacle of a Dao! By then, the Dao of Void would no longer puzzle him any longer!
Even Southern Cloud King, Great Paragon Fuyi and many other talented experts were stuck at the bottleneck.
Even though Xue Ying was a peerless talent, it was still very difficult for him to reach the final realm before his hometown Origin World enters apocalypse.
"I shall use another World Flower." Xue Ying thought.
Recalling back, Xue Ying felt that it was quite extravagant for him to consume the World Flowers one after another back at the Realm Heart God Palace. But the outcome was a supreme secret impartation technique, <Chaotic Origin Seven Strikes>. Furthermore, it was accompanied by the refinement method of an appropriate Chaotic Origin Weapon. Hence, it was worth the price! This was a supreme secret impartation technique, a scripture that would supplant him with a profound understanding of the Dao of Void. After all, the integration of the 'Dao of Void and Chaotic Origin Energy' was by nature an incredibly complex utilization of the Dao of Void.
...
At his hometown, another World Flower bloomed. Xue Ying entered the world to experience everything.
...
As Xue Ying cultivated, he would occasionally come out 'to kill the devils'.
Whenever some devils dared to start a massacre, Xue Ying would not be merciful at all.
Within Myriad Realms Ancient Nation, underneath a relatively luxurious residence in one of the huge cities, in an underground palace.
A handsome devilish young man sat cross-legged with a black bottle placed before him. He took in a deep breath. At that moment, large amounts of souls started flying into his mouth.
"Mn, my 'Three Calamitous Fire' is about to be completed." The handsome devilish young man grinned. He opened his mouth and spat. A black flame could be seen shooting out. This black flame was filled with a bloody and vicious aura.
"It's all because of Heaven's Will Daoist whose presence intimated everyone, making my collection of these souls sluggish. Currently, my realm has reached the required level. I am only lacking in souls." The eyes of that handsome devilish young man were filled with a strand of fury. Even though he felt indignant, he was helpless. That Heaven's Will Daoist was too powerful! Even his clan's Old Ancestor was stronger than the Heaven's Will Daoist, he could not kill the other party.
His teacher had already given him a strict order to endure temporarily.
But the desire to grow stronger drove him out to gather souls surreptitiously.
"Given how tyrannical he is, he'll definitely not last for a long time. In the future, he'll definitely not have a good conclusion." The handsome devilish young man felt hatred as with many other devils towards that Heaven's Will Daoist. It was only they who dared not treat him as their enemy.
"Chi."
A black crack flashed.
And a white-robed male appeared in the underground palace.
When the handsome devilish young man saw the white-robed male appear, he felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on him. He watched in a daze; his heart was trembling, his legs softened and his face paled.
"Heaven, Heaven, Heaven's Will..." The handsome devilish young man was terror-stricken.
Heaven's Will Daoist.
He suppressed all devil organizations in Realm Heart Great Land all by himself!
He once defeated the final realm Great Tyrant Devil, 'Eight Silk Island Master'.
'Black Sovereign King' of the Myriad Realms Ancient Nation seemingly fell in his hands too.
Even though this handsome devilish male was filled with all sorts of grievances and killing intent, all those thoughts vanished the moment he saw 'Heaven's Will Daoist'. Instead, he was filled with terror! Too terrifying! How could this Era Overlord be someone he as a Level-Nine Primal Chaos handle?
"I wouldn't have thought that you have harmed so many living beings." Xue Ying glanced at the black jade bottle. The souls in the bottle numbered in billions. It was likely for this devil to have harmed even more people. It was only because he conducted his acts relatively well-hidden. Even Southern Cloud Sacred Religion's intelligence network found out about it recently from a Unity Realm Disciple from the Southern Cloud Sacred Religion. That disciple's true love had been killed, causing him to trace down where the enemy was dogmatically before he finally found out the truth!
"I am from the Inferno Clan. You can't kill me." The handsome devilish young man shouted out in fear.
"Die."
Xue Ying's eyes flashed coldly.
The handsome devilish young man widened his eyes. His eyes were filled with terror and shock. He felt regret and unwilling. He did not want to die. He did not wish to die! He still sought to become a Cosmos God. Being a disciple from the Inferno Clan, he had spent his days creating disasters willfully in all places. He did not have enough of those joyful days still!
"Peng."
His body simply shattered into dust.
"Ai." Xue Ying looked at that black jade bottle sighing lightly. He waved his hand before keeping it. He was still in the territory of the Inferno Clan. It would be better for him to leave the Myriad Realms Ancient Nation before releasing these pitiful people.
Just a breath of time later.
"Heaven's Will Daoist!" An indignant roar reverberated across the sky above this city. The Inferno Clan was a clan created by an unparalleled existence. They were different from the experts in Summer Wind Ancient Nation. The five ancestors in the Myriad Realms Ancient Nation were outsiders who relied on the Realm Heart Order to reincarnate in. That was when they chose to reproduce and form clans, though only two great clans were made in the end.
And Inferno Clan was one of the two great clans in Myriad Realms Ancient Nation.
Such a power...
Yet Heaven's Will Daoist still dared to kill a core member of their clan within the Myriad Realms Ancient Nation? Was this not challenging the entire Inferno Clan?
"This disciple from the Inferno Clan massacred a trillion sentient beings. Since he has become a devil, I'll kill him like how I killed others!" A voice sounded out across the entire city and following that, Heaven's Will Daoist left.
...
Time was the true testimonial.
Heaven's Will Daoist was indeed vicious.
He did not care who the party was or how huge his background was! Those who dared to create calamity were all killed!
He killed until some of the core members from the superpowers started trembling. They were all ruthless in the past, massacring countless just for the sake of 'entertainment'! Some even caused the death of many weaker lifeforms just because they chose to spar and test out their techniques. To them, they did not care since it was equivalent to killing some ants.
Currently, all of them were given a strict order! In addition to the reputation of Heaven's Will Daoist created by blood, some of the disciples from the great clans in the six great ancient nations started becoming more conservative.
Southern Cloud Capital.
"Teacher."
Xue Ying came to visit Southern Cloud King. Southern Cloud King passed a silver wristband over to him, chuckling out: "Xue Ying, even though these precious materials you require aren't hard to get, there are honestly too many of them, that I spent 80 million years to finish gathering them."
"It's quite fast already, at least much faster than I expected." Xue Ying chuckled. He was clear how much easier it was to procure these precious materials as compared to the 'Chaotic Origin Sand'. Nevertheless, it was still a complicated task. His human network could hardly be compared to his teacher's. Furthermore, prior to selling his top-graded secret treasures, unless he made use of the contribution points from Summer Wind Ancient Nation to exchange for most treasures, he would not have sufficient cosmos crystals.
The Chaotic Origin Sand was gathered through the trade with the Summer Wind Ancient Nation.
And thus, Xue Ying was not too willing to collect the other materials from the same place! Even though they did not have any refinement recipe and he believed Emperor Summer and others could not determine anything just from the materials alone, Xue Ying did not wish for any screw-ups.
"I've finally gathered them." Looking at the silver wristband, Xue Ying extended his senses across all materials within for an examination before revealing a grin.
All gathered.
He could finally begin his refinement of the Chaotic Origin Weapon!
"Xue Ying." Southern Cloud King added, "During the past few years, your identity as the Heaven's Will Daoist has forced those devils to be on alert. But if you continued on with you act, you will eventually tie yourself up with more enmity and grievances! You do not even let disciples from the great clans in the ancient nations off. Hence, you will only form more enemies. It is fine if your identity isn't revealed. But the moment it is, you would become enemies with the entire world."
"How could I be enemies with the entire world? I think it's simply becoming enemies with all devils." Xue Ying gave a peal of apathetic laughter, "So what if there are more enemies? Even if I have to face all of them by myself, I will still do it! Furthermore, those devils understood what it means to be terrified. I'll simply kill until they are afraid and no longer dare to commit any vicious acts."
Southern Cloud King softly nodded.
He felt apprehensive towards this disciple of his who was about to prod into muddied waters. But it appeared his disciple was filled with resolution.
And currently, all devils across the Realm Heart Great Land had indeed been threatened by just 'Heaven's Will Daoist' himself!
"You should be careful. There has been none who could truly intimidate those devils in the Realm Heart Great Land for eternity." Southern Cloud King reminded.
"Teacher, you don't have to be worried. Even though nobody has done it before." Xue Ying chuckled, "Paths are meant to be taken by us! I believe that given enough time, there will be someone who would choose to take this path."
