Living in the deep palace

"joke."

"Do you think you can kill me like this?"

"I, Su Chen, rose from humble beginnings, fought my way to immortality through martial arts, and cultivated all the way to the Taiyi Golden Immortal level. What have I ever feared?!"

Su Chen had no time to wallow in self-pity, nor did he have the right to despair!

Because, the moment he regained his footing, a vast, violent, and terrifying divine thought, filled with greed and bloodlust, swept towards his star field from all directions like a swarm of sharks smelling blood!

Heaven's decree!

In this mythical era he has entered, the supreme order to hunt him down has already been issued!

The entire mythological era became a hunting ground for him!
"Want to catch me? Let's see if you have the ability!"

A cold glint flashed in Su Chen's eyes. He endured the excruciating pain that felt like his soul was being torn apart and rapidly formed hand seals!

He did not set up a traditional immortal concealment formation.

Because he knew that under the watchful eye of this "Heavenly Dao," any formation based on the laws of this universe was nothing more than burying one's head in the sand!
hum!
Unseen streams of light emerged from Su Chen's body!
Centered on the cave in the Earth's core where he was located, an absolute "information vacuum" area quietly formed!

Here, there are no spatial fluctuations, no residual energy, no causal connections, and even the concept of "existence" itself has been forcibly... "shielded" by Su Chen using a more advanced "information" method!

From the outside, this desolate planet appears completely normal.

But in any exploration by divine sense, the coordinates of this planet became a... "non-existent" absolute blank space!

After doing all this, Su Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief. His vision went black, and he almost fainted on the spot.

He was so weak.

He used the last bit of strength in his body to build this "information black hole" where he could hide.

He slowly sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began a race against time... to save himself!
He must regain enough strength before those terrifying pursuers find this place!

More importantly, it is necessary to completely expel the "Heavenly Dao" law that has invaded one's true spirit!
"My 'Dao' was born from the Dao of Immortality, yet it transcends the Dao of Immortality..."

"The laws of this universe can harm me, but... they can't kill me!"

Su Chen's mind completely calmed down.

His consciousness, once again, split into two parts.

Part of it is the self that adheres to the "primordial" origin and belongs to the "immortal path".

The other part consists of observers who are absolutely rational and belong to the category of "information".

He began to examine the injuries inside his body.

“My ‘Taiyi True Spirit’ is severely damaged, with a total of seventy-two ‘law’ cracks.”

Su Chen's consciousness transformed into countless tentacles, cautiously probing into the "Heavenly Dao" laws that were like "Dao nails" anchored to his true spirit.

This is an extremely dangerous process!

If he is not careful, his consciousness will be assimilated by that supreme law of "order," and he will die completely!
However, Su Chen had no other choice!

He had to analyze the "vulnerabilities" in the opponent's methods in the shortest possible time, and then... write a special "anti-virus program"!
Time slips away, bit by bit.

Outside the cave, the entire Nine Nether Star Domain was already engulfed in a monstrous wave of demonic energy!
Countless ancient demons who had cultivated in seclusion for countless millennia have awakened from their slumbering demon nests!

One after another, ferocious demonic ships forged from the bones of billions of living beings tore through the dark star curtain, and like locusts passing through, began a carpet search of this star field!
"Heavenly decree! The profound mysteries of the Fifth Realm! Hahahaha!"

"I never expected that He would be willing to share it!"

"It was a stroke of luck for me; I sensed the presence of the person mentioned in the decree, even if it was just a fleeting glimpse..."

In the deepest part of the Nine Nether Starfield, within the colossal "Hall of Ten Thousand Demons" forged from the cores of countless "dead stars," a terrifying demonic figure, ten thousand feet tall, with three heads and six arms, and engulfed in black demonic flames, suddenly opened its six eyes filled with destruction and greed!

He is none other than the supreme ruler of this Nine Nether Star Domain—the Demon Lord Moro! A genuine, unparalleled Heavenly Demon who has stepped into the fourth realm!
"I never imagined that after sleeping for millions of years, I would encounter such an incredible opportunity the moment I awoke!"

Moro's six eyes all looked in the direction Su Chen had fled, their eyes flashing with a burning light that seemed determined to succeed.

"How could a mere future thief alarm the very Heavenly Dao and make such a solemn promise? He must be hiding an immense secret!"

"Send me the Demon's Decree!"

Moro's voice, filled with supreme demonic power, resounded throughout the entire Nine Nether Star Domain.

"All demon lords and demon kings, come forth in full force! Dig three feet into the ground to find that 'thief of time'!"

"Remember, you have to live!"

"His 'Dao,' which even the Heavenly Dao itself fears, and his 'secrets,' will all belong to... the Heavenly Dao itself!"

……

……

At this moment, Su Chen, who was at the very center of the storm, was completely unaware of this.

His entire being was immersed in the silent war against the "Mythical Heavenly Dao Virus".

This is a tedious, lengthy, and extremely dangerous process.

His awareness of "information" was repeatedly shattered and rebuilt by the laws of "Heaven," only to be shattered and rebuilt again...

Each collapse is like experiencing a "big bang" on the soul level; the pain is enough to drive any Golden Immortal giant completely insane.

But Su Chen stubbornly endured it!

His will, honed to an ever more resilient and purer level in this battle of information warfare that pushed the limits, was tempered to become even more resilient and purer.
I don’t know how much time has passed.

It might be a month, or it might be a year.

Finally, after countless failures...

When Su Chen's "information" consciousness was once again crushed by the laws of "Heavenly Dao," leaving only a last wisp of "data,"

That lingering data, on the verge of destruction, captured a fleeting "flaw"...
"found it!"

Su Chen's fading consciousness suddenly erupted with an unprecedentedly brilliant light!
He succeeded!
He finally found a fatal flaw in the seemingly perfect "order" of the mythical Heavenly Dao, a flaw that would allow him to... turn defeat into victory!

That is... "self"!
The Heavenly Dao of Mythology, though powerful and the "Creator," is ultimately just a fallen remnant! A cold collection of "rules" existing only to maintain the operation of the universe!

His power lies in His "ruthlessness" and "absolute order".

His weakness lies precisely in the fact that he lacks a true "self"!
And Su Chen has it!
He has emotions, joys, sorrows, and everything that belongs to a "human being"!
This is the most fundamental difference between him, this "variable," and the mythical Heavenly Dao, this "constant"!
"That's it...that's it!"

"Using 'disorder' to fight against 'order'!"

"Using 'variables' to overturn 'constants'!"

"With my 'human heart,' I will shake your... 'Heaven's will'!"

The moment he realized this, Su Chen's "Information" Dao and his "Primordial" Immortal Dao began, for the first time in a true sense, a perfect fusion!

boom--!!!!!!!!!!!!

A transformation more terrifying and more complete than ever before erupted from the deepest part of his "Taiyi True Spirit"!
That's not just a fusion of powers, but a unification of "worldviews"!

If Su Chen before was merely trying to use the tool of "information" within the framework of "immortal cultivation," then...

At this moment, he completely broke down the barriers between the two worlds, truly fusing the two completely different "Dao" into one, transforming it into a brand new, unprecedented... form of existence!
Within his left eye, at the core of the primordial chaos, a "variable" rune, shimmering with infinite possibilities, quietly emerged.

In his right eye, at the end of the torrent of "information," a "1" representing the "absolute true self" coalesces.

"I am me."

"I am not Heaven."

"I am Su Chen!"

The moment this will, filled with absolute "self," fully awakens from the depths of his true spirit!
Buzz——!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Those "Heavenly Dao Viruses" that were like "Dao nails" firmly nailed to his true spirit seemed to have met their nemesis, and let out a mournful cry of unbearable burden!
For the first time, that supreme law of "order" crumbled before Su Chen's "human heart," which was full of "disorder" and "variables"!
"Get out of here!"

Su Chen's will transformed into a sharp sword of the "heart" that cut through all illusions, fiercely slashing at the "Heavenly Dao" laws that had invaded his body!
Snap! Snap!

Those seemingly indestructible "road spikes" were easily severed and shattered like rotten wood by this "heart sword"!

Immediately afterwards, it was completely devoured and refined by Su Chen's reborn "Taiyi True Spirit", turning into resources for his growth!
"puff!"

Su Chen suddenly opened his eyes and spat out a mouthful of pitch-black... foul blood.

Those were the remnants of the "Heavenly Dao" laws that he had forcibly expelled from his body!

The moment he spat out that mouthful of foul blood, Su Chen felt a sense of lightness throughout his body, and the oppressive force of the "Heavenly Dao" that had been suppressing and corroding him vanished into thin air!

Although his aura was still weak, it was no longer the kind of "decay" that left him vulnerable to being slaughtered. Instead, it was like a phoenix rising from the ashes, rekindling the flames of hope amidst the ruins!

His injuries are healing at a speed visible to the naked eye...

The hideous cracks that covered the body of the Dao were slowly healing under the nourishment of the new "Taiyi" origin.

The dim and lackluster "Dao Fruit" has once again radiated a dazzling divine light!

Within just a few hours, Su Chen's aura had returned to... its peak!
Do not!
Even stronger than before!
If he was once a "Golden Immortal" who held the power of "Heavenly Dao".

At this moment, he is a Golden Immortal giant who tramples the "Heavenly Dao Rank" under his feet and places his "self" above everything else!
Although his realm remained unchanged, his supernatural abilities were significantly stronger than before.

"Mythical Heavenly Dao..."

Su Chen slowly stood up from the cave in the earth's core. His eyes, half chaos and half data, seemed to pierce through endless layers of rock and time, looking towards the distant Central Divine Court.

"Thank you for your 'gift'."

"If you hadn't pushed me to the brink, I wouldn't have been able to find my own... true path so quickly."

"In return..."

A cold, dangerous smile slowly curved the corners of Su Chen's lips.

"I will personally... put an end to your 'myth'!"

Just as Su Chen had fully recovered from his injuries and made further progress in his cultivation, preparing to take the initiative and stir up the tranquil waters of this mythical era!

A sudden change occurs!
Boom—!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Without warning, the desolate planet he was on began to tremble violently!
A terrifying demonic power, so immense that it could suffocate even ordinary Golden Immortals, surged forth from all directions, pressing fiercely into the depths of the Earth's core like an invisible tide!

The "information black hole" that Su Chen had just built, under the impact of this unreasonable and absolute force, actually let out a cry of despair, and the perfect "logic" barrier on it was forcibly... stretched open with hideous cracks!
"Ok?"

Su Chen's brows furrowed suddenly.

"Discovered?"

"But it's okay."

"If they had arrived a little earlier, it would have been a real problem for me. Now that they've come, it's not a problem at all."

With a thought, he took a step forward, and his figure appeared on the desolate, crater-strewn gray surface of the planet.

He raised his head and looked up at the dark starry sky.

Suddenly, I realized that...

Four colossal, terrifying warships, large enough to blot out the stars, have completely sealed off all escape routes for this planet, like four ancient demon gods!
At the bow of each demonic ship stood a terrifying demonic figure with an overwhelming aura and billowing demonic flames!
Indeed, in the Nine Nether Star Domain, there are the Four Great Demon Lords, second only to Demon Lord Moro!
Beyond the encirclement of the four demonic ships, further away, a more terrifying and profound figure, seemingly capable of completely devouring the light of the entire universe, was silently suspended there.

He has three heads and six arms, and his demonic flames rage to the heavens.

Indeed, it is the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds—Demon Lord Moro!
A true, supreme demon of the fourth realm!
His six eyes, filled with greed and destructive desire, were now fixed on Su Chen, as if admiring a priceless treasure that he had already acquired.

"Hahaha!"

"really!"

"You really are near my Netherworld!"

"finally found you."

The voice of Mara, filled with supreme demonic power, slowly rose, causing the surrounding space and time to distort violently.

"A thief who steals time!"

"The secret of the Fifth Realm, offered as a reward by the Heavenly Decree, deserves to be mine!" (End of Chapter)
