Chapter 931 - Heaven Insurrection
“The restrictions on the Mental Demon Battlefield were created by the Dark Thearch’s Dao Marks. As they were derived from the Heavenly Dao, the power of the heaven worshipping ritual naturally restrained it.”
The Dark Thearch was the former Celestial Thearch. Most of his Dao Marks originated from the Heavenly Dao, and his combat power was terrifying like no other.
Even if the former Celestial Thearch had fallen to the darkness, they were still the sealing Dao Marks of a pseudo Heavenly Dao. Even a Myriad Transformations Demon God would have to sacrifice a lot of time and energy to break through them.
Of course, Fang Yuan would not charge straight into it thoughtlessly. He had gathered the Human Dao, caused the human emperor to rebel against heaven, and obtained the support of Excellency Mount Mang. He did not spend a single ounce of energy before he managed to break the seal on the Mental Demon Battlefield.
“Demon Supremacy Wish Fulfillment, Dark Thearch, Excellency Mount Mang... it’s been a while!”
Fang Yuan’s true body arrived. The current Mental Demon Battlefield was empty, and numerous black chains covered the battlefield, looking like a huge spiderweb.
The Dark Thearch was the core of the spiderweb. Demon Supremacy Wish Fulfillment was nearby.
Excellency Mount Mang, Supremacy Numinous Treasure, and Supremacy Carefree were in a corner together, clearly united.
Both the Infinite Devourer and Demon God Myriad Thunder God were originally sealed in the Mental Demon Battlefield from the start, but their conditions were now even worse. Even their Great Daos were badly damaged.
“You’re... that Mental Demon Demon God?” Excellency Mount Mang immediately recognized Fang Yuan. However, he did not make a fuss. “Demon Supremacy Wish Fulfillment has the Dao of Heaving Devouring. Once he is successful, there’s no way you can escape from him. Fellow Daoist, your only hope of survival is to save us!”
“Of course, I understand this. In the outside world, I am known as Supremacy Creation!”
Fang Yuan laughed heartily.
The two Immortal Supremacies immediately used their spiritual will. “Fellow Daoist, if you are willing to abandon the darkness, we are willing to swear upon our Dao Hearts to offer you a position as a Zenith Heaven in the Spiritual Realm.”
A person in a hopeless situation would desperately grasp on to anything they could get their hands on.
To avoid destruction, this was a small price to pay.
Even the Spiritual Realm would not reject the help of a Demon God.
Since Fang Yuan had never been to the Mental Demon Realm, he obviously did not have any roots there. Someone like him was a perfect target.
“It’s you again. You were nothing more than a Demon Master before, but now, you’re at the Myriad Transformations realm. That’s way too fast. You must be hiding some sort of secret!” Demon Supremacy Wish Fulfillment exclaimed in shock. “I originally thought the Lord of the Void would be the one to come!”
“He’s dead. You’ll join him soon!”
In an instant, Fang Yuan made a decision.
There were no eternal enemies, only eternal interests.
The best strategy now would be to join forces with the Spiritual Realm’s Emperor and Zenith Heavens to fight Demon Supremacy Wish Fulfillment.
As for betraying the Mental Demon Realm?
Haha, he was born in Da Qian. He was nothing more than an enemy to most of the Mental Demon Realm. He did not even have a single friend there. There was nothing to betray.
“Wonderful. Supremacy Creation, you will realize that you’ve made a wise choice.” Excellency Mount Mang rejoiced. “Now, you should save us quickly. Be careful. Demon Supremacy Wish Fulfillment has the Heaven Devouring Great Dao and the Heaven Devouring Mystic Technique. He can devour a Demon God’s Great Dao!”
“I naturally know this.”
Fang Yuan stepped forward like he was taking a stroll through his backyard. Five-colored streaks of light gathered in his hand, forming the shape of a sword.
Roar! Roar!
A black battle dragon attached itself to the sword as a coiling dragon.
Sword light radiated. In the midst of it, he saw the emperor leading his numerous officials in worship.
The five-colored rays converged, turning into images of human farmers, weavers, merchants, and so on, reflecting the different states of humanity.
“I’ve received it, True Dragon and Son of Heaven—the Heaven Insurrection Blade!”
Even though Fang Yuan had helped Lin Shoucheng with his worship, and Lin Shoucheng had shouted to rebel against the Celestial Thearch, Fang Yuan was not planning to bring them.
After all, they would merely be a bunch cannon fodder. If he brought them to the Mental Demon Battlefield, they would die from the aftermath of a single attack here.
If they faced Demon Supremacy Wish Fulfillment, none of them would survive.
The power that Lin Shoucheng obtained from his worship, the Malignant Qi from the battlefield, and the grievances from the human realm gathered and formed the Heaven Insurrection Blade!
“As someone who betrayed the Spiritual Realm, how can you call yourself the Celestial Thearch?
“The emperor loves humanity. All you’ve done is destroy everything in your path. Have you ever regretted that?
“Is there any wrong in leading the human realm’s greatest heroes in rising against heaven?
...
Fang Yuan slashed out his sword while questioning his morals.
The sword light converged and charged at the Dark Thearch.
The frightening sword light was like a torrent, and every slash contained images of the human realm. One could not help keep their eyes peeled.
If it were the past Celestial Thearch, relying on the Divine Dao’s foundations, he could suppress this attack and slowly dissolve it.
Unfortunately, the current Celestial Thearch had fallen deep into the darkness, reaching the point where both humans and Gods were angry. On top of that, he had even lost the Divine Dao’s foundation in the human realm. As such, he could only take this slash head-on!
Kaboom!
The sword light fell like a waterfall! It swept through him and broke apart the numerous Dao Mark chains.
The Heaven Insurrection Blade brought the power of heaven, earth, and man. In an instant, it stripped the Dark Thearch’s final authority and power!
With one slash, the Mental Demon Battlefield’s restrictions were destroyed!
All the web-like chains disintegrated, leaving behind the ferocious, black-robed Dark Thearch.
Crash!
With the chains breaking, the three bundles of light regained their freedom and flew out, transforming into Excellency Mount Mang and the two Zenith Heavens.
“Well done!”
After Excellency Mount Mang regained his freedom, a deluge of heavenly flowers and golden lotuses burst forth in his surroundings, and his robes turned into that of a Celestial Thearch’s.
Furthermore, even his face seemed to turn celestial.
He already held most of the qualifications to become the Celestial Thearch. Now that he had obtained the human emperor’s worship, the power from heaven, earth, and man gathered, and he ascended to the position of Celestial Thearch!
The Celestial Thearch was the incarnation of the Spiritual Realm’s Heavenly Dao.
The Heavenly Dao was high above. Even if the realm fell apart, it was not likely that it would manifest.
However, the Celestial Thearch could borrow some of the Heavenly Dao’s power in the form of a pseudo Heavenly Dao. As the Celestial Thearch, his strength was almost equivalent to a Netherheaven Demon God!
“Damn it!” Demon Supremacy Wish Fulfillment roared. “How dare you interfere with my plans, Dream Demon?! I will kill you and devour your Great Dao!”
“I’ve heard threats like these hundreds of times! If each of them came true, I’m sure the power of the curses alone would be more than enough to kill me by now...”
Fang Yuan spread his hands out. Nine rays of heaven-reaching sword light shot out, burrowing into the void.
“Dark Thearch!” Demon Supremacy Wish Fulfillment dodged while the black-robed Dark Thearch stepped forward boldly. His eyes were bloodshot and stared straight at Excellency Mount Mang, revealing his animosity. “Mine...”
The newly-appointed Celestial Thearch before him seemed to rekindle his memories.
Of course, he carried hate for ‘usurper’!
The Dark Thearch lifted both hands and declared in a blank voice, “Sky... Net... Array...”
Chichi!
Instantly, lines of black Dao Marks appeared in the void, as though he had cast a large net. It fell ominously from above and below, sealing off the sky and the ground. There was nowhere to run.
“This is... the previous Celestial Thearch’s divine powers?” Excellency Mount Mang was slightly shocked. “Leave this to me!”
Even if the Dark Thearch had fallen entirely to the darkness, his combat power was still at the pinnacle of Myriad Transformations and likely comparable to Netherheaven.
Inside the battlefield, other than Excellency Mount Mang, not a single person dared to fight the Dark Thearch.
“I am the Celestial Thearch!”
Excellency Mount Mang stepped forward. His words became law, like a heavenly statute.
Buzz!
With his words, an illusory magic domain surfaced and immediately spread. Splendid pavilions appeared everywhere, while white cranes flew around fountains. It resembled the past Heavenly Court.
Excellency Mount Mang sat high atop his throne, looking down at the Dark Thearch.
“That position... is mine...”
The Dark Thearch roared. The Sky Net Array immediately contracted.
Rumble!
The new and old Celestial Thearch clashed. The dark Heavenly Dao and the quasi Heavenly Dao collided violently.
...
“Let’s go!”
Even though Fang Yuan and the two Zenith Heavens had the power of Great Daos to protect themselves, they still felt oppressed and withdrew into the distance.
“Excellency Mount Mang is the new Celestial Thearch. Him dealing with the old Celestial Thearch is optimal, especially in this world!” Supremacy Carefree said. “This is a battle of authority. If the Dark Thearch hadn’t fallen into the darkness, Celestial Thearch Mount Mang would have restrained him immediately!”
The Divine Dao in this world was like a heaven and earth office. Those with abilities went up, while those without went down.
Those Gods who lost their worshippers, and did not have a Deity Position, could even be described as very miserable.
However, the Dark Thearch was not the same.
He had turned into a Demon from a God. Now he was a Demon God!
As such, Celestial Thearch Mount Mang still needed to put in some effort to take care of him.
“Demon Supremacy Wish Fulfillment, you killed one of our Zenith Heavens. You’re an enemy of my Immortal Dao!” Supremacy Numinous Treasure shouted. His treasured seal appeared and launched itself through the void at Demon Supremacy Wish Fulfillment.
“Don’t underestimate the enemy!
Supremacy Carefree executed his technique, and his hossu appeared behind the seal.
“You’re too overconfident!” Demon Supremacy Wish Fulfillment sneered and extended both hands. His hands transformed into demonic claws to entangle with the seal.
With one move, he stirred the winds and clouds, and Dao Marks fluctuated. Fang Yuan realized that he was at a very high realm, having already reached Myriad Transformations.
In fact, his Myriad Transformations’ Dao path exceeded his!
“Dream Demon, help me!”
At this time, Fang Yuan received a cry of help from Myriad Thunder through his spiritual will.
This existence was truly unlucky. At the start, his group had come to the Spiritual Realm to attain the Heavenly Dao. However, he was defeated and sealed in this battlefield.
After the Infinite Devourer and the Lord of the Void came, he had struggled to break free. But before he left the Mental Demon Battlefield, the Celestial Thearch had forced him back with a slap.
Up until this point, he had been repeatedly refined by the Celestial Thearch and Demon Supremacy Wish Fulfillment. His natural source was severely damaged.
Of course, this was not a big deal. However, the root of his power, his fundamental Great Dao, was also damaged. For a Demon God, this was worse than suffering injuries that could cause death.
“As long as you save me... I’ll promise you anything!”
Even though the Mental Demon Battlefield was unsealed, Demon God Myriad Thunder still carried a seal on his body. Together with Infinite Devourer, they looked like two huge bundles of light that were bound together by chains.
Furthermore, they were at a decisive point in the battle. It was highly likely that they would turn into ashes and die.
“What good would it do me to save you?”
Fang Yuan blinked nonchalantly. However, the flames in his heart burned brightly.
As expected, Myriad Thunder brought out the most attractive bargaining chip he had. “Heaven Devouring Mystic Technique! I’ll give you the Heaven Devouring Mystic Technique!
