"The Heavenly Dao of the Three Realms is composed of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, yin, yang, life, destruction, chaos, as well as the Dao of the Sword, taiji, limitless, lightning, demonheart, and many other Daos. These countless Daos combine to form the complete Heavenly Dao of the Three Realms."
Seeing that he had attracted everyone's attention, Lord Demonheart didn't need to be asked any further questions. Instead, he proudly explained himself.
"I am the Lord of the Demonheart, and I have fused with the Dao of the Demonheart. If I wish to break free of the Heavenly Dao, I must ensure that the Dao of the Demonheart dominates the Heavenly Dao.
"So that's how it is!" Lord Windfiend nodded, a look of understanding on his face. "When the great tribulation begins and Immortals and Demons begin to fight, it's very easy for Demonheart to give birth to Demonheart. This can quickly increase the Dao of the Demonheart's power within the Heavenly Dao, correct?"
"That's right. Windfiend, you know me best!" Lord Demonheart chuckled, seeming quite proud of his methods. After all, not just anyone could break free of the Heavenly Dao after reaching the Daomerge.
Lord Windfiend took a few steps back in disgust, as though unwilling to get too close to his Demonheart. Although he was known as the Lord of All Fiends, he actually didn't care about power or anything like that. He had quite a few friends in the Three Realms, and even quite a few Daofathers and True Gods in Nüwa's camp were friends with him.
It was precisely because his Demonheart wished to break free of the Heavenly Dao that he had caused this great tribulation of the Three Realms. The Seamless Gate and Nüwa's camps had completely broken off relations, resulting in countless casualties on both sides. Windfiend didn't approve of this at all.
"What, you think I'm the one who's done this to you?" Lord Demonheart knew exactly how displeased Windfiend was, and he couldn't help but let out a derisive chuckle.
"The Three Realms is only so big. You've been wantonly recruiting disciples, making it so that mortals have an extremely low threshold to enter the Immortal Dao. Any mortal with even the slightest bit of power can come into contact with the Immortal Dao. Look at how many Immortals and Demons there are in the Three Realms right now! None of them are old or dead, and their numbers are only increasing with each passing day. If the tribulation hadn't happened, the Three Realms would've collapsed long ago! "
"So you're saying that the Heavenly Dao really did cause this tribulation of its own accord?" Daoist Three Purities frowned. This was the first time he had heard that there would come a day when the Three Realms wouldn't be able to hold on.
"That's right. After countless years of reproduction, the Three Realms have seen more and more living beings, as well as more and more Immortal cultivators and monsters. More and more Immortal Divinities, and even major powers, were born. The burden on the Three Realms grew greater and greater. If you didn't fight amongst yourselves, then more and more experts would be born, causing the burden on the Three Realms to grow greater and greater. If the burden grew sufficiently great, then the Three Realms might even be destroyed.
In order to protect itself, the Heavenly Dao instinctively increased the limit of Immortal Ascension. But even so, it was still a drop in the bucket. It was unable to limit the number of Immortals that were increasing day by day. At this time, I only gave a small push to bring forward the start of the great tribulation! "
Daoist Three Purities had an ugly look on his face when he heard Lord Demonheart's words. He never would've guessed that the main reason the tribulation had begun was because the Three Realms had been far too peaceful. Too many Immortals and Divinities had been born, resulting in an endless drain on their resources.
"Haotian, it seems that after this tribulation, we'll have to come up with some measures. Otherwise, even if we survive this tribulation, the Heavenly Dao will still send down more tribulations in the future."
Cheng Hao nodded. He didn't have any objections to this. "As the saying goes, the Dao is not to be casually transmitted. In the future, we'll have to come up with strict regulations. Without permission, the Daoist techniques of the Immortal Schools are not to be taught to outsiders!"
"The Dao is not to be casually transmitted? Haotian, you're right. This is a very useful method. Once the Seamless Gate takes control of the Three Realms, I'll pass down these regulations and enforce them to the letter! " Lord Demonheart laughed loudly as he looked at Cheng Hao. Although a hint of dread could be seen in his eyes, he was still absolutely confident in his own power.
He had been in the Dao of the Heavens for so long that he had long ago reached the level of supreme Elder God. Even in the endless primordial chaos, he was confident that he could dominate the Elder God level.
"I have to say, I really do have to thank all of you. If it hadn't been for your large-scale battle, I really wouldn't have been able to escape. After enduring for so many years, today, I'm finally free and unfettered. I'm no longer bound by any restrictions!"
Lord Demonheart laughed loudly, his laughter echoing throughout the endless void. Everyone present, be it Nüwa's camp or the Seamless Gate's camp, could sense the boundless joy in Lord Demonheart's heart.
He had been imprisoned for countless years, and had only managed to find a way to escape after racking his brains for all sorts of methods … and he only had one chance to do so …
And now … he had succeeded!
How excited must Lord Demonheart be?
"Since you all understand …" Lord Demonheart swept his gaze across the distant armies of Nüwa's camp. "Then you can all die now."
After venting all the words he hadn't said in a trillion years, Lord Demonheart was completely satisfied. He waved his sleeve, and his majestic voice rang out in all directions.
"Kill!"
As the word 'kill' rang out, the battle began once more!
"Kill!" The armies of Nüwa's camp all charged forward, charging towards their chosen targets.
"Leave Lord Demonheart to me. You take care of the others!"
Seeing that Lin Xi had once more chosen Lord Windfiend, Cheng Hao immediately strode forward. After giving orders to Three Purities and the others, he charged towards Lord Demonheart, who had just broken free and was currently at the peak of his power.
Lord Demonheart was a level stronger than Lord Windfiend, especially in terms of both offense and defense. He was at the peak of the third rank, but just like Cheng Hao, he wasn't as fast as Lord Windfiend. This was exactly what Cheng Hao wanted!
As Daoist Three Purities, the Three Sovereigns, and the Five Emperors formed the Nüwa Formation and the Pangu Formation and charged towards the Seamless Gate, Cheng Hao and Lord Demonheart began to clash.
RUMBLE!
It was as though a heavenly tribulation had descended upon the world. Countless bolts of lightning descended, and black divine flames flickered. Space itself was torn apart, as though the Three Realms were about to be torn apart.
As soon as they began to fight, the two of them went all out. Fleshly bodies and fists continuously clashed, and one divine ability after another was unleashed. The battle prowess displayed by the two of them truly stunned the onlookers.
It was truly an astonishing sight!
Although Lin Xi and Lord Windfiend's battle had already been astonishing, the two of them were simply too fast. Moreover, they hadn't exchanged many blows yet, so most of the time, the onlookers could only see two streaks of light flickering in the air, giving them an unfathomable feeling.
However, Cheng Hao was different from Lord Demonheart. The two of them didn't use any fancy tricks. They fought head-on, using their physical strength, Dharmic powers, Nascent Divinities, and all sorts of divine abilities and secret arts. They unleashed a flurry of attacks that dazzled the eyes of the onlookers, causing them to cry out in delight!
"Indestructible … Emperor's Fist!"
Cheng Hao, who had gone all out, finally used the Indestructible Emperor's Fist that he hadn't used since he stepped into the second rank!
In the past, the Indestructible Emperor's Fist was actually just a variant of his Sacred Body of the Ancients.
But now, the Indestructible Emperor's Fist was a combination of the qi and blood power of his physical body that could shatter the vacuum, the blazing Primal Spirit energy of the Sun God, and the immortal energy of the Great Emperor. The three types of energy — essence, qi, and spirit — converged together, causing Cheng Hao's entire body to emit the most dazzling light. Above his right fist, an illusory image of a black, red, and gold lotus appeared.
