From the Ming Dynasty, we will conquer the world

Chapter 286 The universe is the bow, the void is the string, let's shoot Sirius again!

At this moment, Xu Xing finally understood the origin of the Plague Lord—he was originally a wisp of primordial spirit from the Primordial Demon Ancestor.

When the "mysterious and boundless world" was first established, the Jade Emperor was born from chaos, representing the Three Pure Ones, ruling the Heavenly Court, and governing the will of Heaven. Even the Western Spirit Mountain had to obey his orders. He was truly the supreme ruler of the Three Realms.

However, this Supreme Heavenly Emperor was the undisputed embodiment of the Heavenly Dao. Although he was in charge of the Heavenly Court, he showed little interest in the affairs of the Heavenly Realm, which was called "the Mysterious and Boundless World." Instead, he was quite interested in the Primordial Demon Ancestor and his demonic path.

Strictly speaking, although the Primordial Holy Path is called the cancer of the universe by the immortals and gods, in fact, it is the result of the natural evolution of this universe.

The "mysterious and boundless world" that has been interfered with by the Three Pure Ones and the Buddha is truly an "alien object" that does not belong to this universe.

The Supreme God of Heaven is a combination of the fundamental laws of this universe and the laws of the Dao. To achieve this goal, he must also incorporate the Primordial Holy Dao into the Dao.

Therefore, the Jade Emperor personally took action, intercepting a wisp of the Primordial Demon Ancestor's primordial spirit, and used his own ancestral energy to refine its nature, carefully teaching it and giving it the name "Jade Emperor".

Unfortunately, as the Heavenly Court grew stronger and its rules became more stringent and powerful, the Heavenly Emperor, whose nature was rooted in the will of Heaven and Earth and the legacy of the Daoist Venerable, became increasingly displeased with the Three Realms and Six Paths.

In his view, the Great Dao should not be like this, but most emperors do not think so. In order to cultivate themselves and occupy the mainstream in the vast and mysterious world, they only focus on the victory or defeat of the struggle between Buddhism and Taoism, as well as the level of their own divine positions.

Those with great supernatural powers also need a strict and solid framework to secure the "mysterious and boundless world" in order to avoid any worries.

For this reason, the few powerful figures who supported the Heavenly Emperor were unable to gain a foothold in the Heavenly Court and left this world either voluntarily or involuntarily, leaving only the Heavenly Emperor.

In the end, even the Heavenly Emperor could not resist this call from his very nature, and he dispersed and returned to the primordial chaos.

It was through this opportunity that the Plague King was able to rise to power in one fell swoop. This is the true origin and background of the Great Emperor Haotian Plague.

Xu Xing's punch was so powerful that it could be said to have reached the limit of the material universe. With one punch, he immediately crushed the Plague Lord's body into dust, exposing his spiritual consciousness to the divine thought of the Primordial Demon Ancestor.

Because of the Eight Emperors Demon Lord, this Demon Ancestor had already been eyeing this place for a long time. Now that he sensed this long-lost spiritual consciousness, he naturally incorporated it into his body.

With the arrival of this colossal will that overwhelms heaven and earth and sweeps across the universe, the originally collapsed Eight Emperor Demon Lord Dharma was immediately reassembled, evolving into various extraordinary scenes, some bizarre and some magnificent.

Previously, these eight Dharma images were all in different postures, some sitting and some lying down, but now they are all standing up, with solemn expressions, bowing slightly, and waiting respectfully.

Within the naturally formed Nine Palaces Demon Realm, a pitch-black tunnel suddenly opened up, the black hole as deep as an abyss, the demonic tide dark and gloomy, spreading towards the vast universe in an instant, and wherever it passed, all light and spiritual energy were completely dissolved.

In the endless darkness, a figure appeared and disappeared, its eyes empty yet giving the impression that it had the entire universe under its control.

As soon as Li Ruohai rushed into the material universe, he saw a massive wave of demonic tide crashing down, sweeping across the sky and the earth, filling the universe. Countless heavenly demons roared and cheered, their silent screams echoing out, shattering one brilliant star after another.

The steel behemoth beneath him sensed this demonic thought and, without any command, immediately clenched its fists. Two blazing flames erupted from beneath its armor plates, intertwining and forming six magnificent wings, making it the most dazzling existence in the vast universe, far surpassing even the stars.

With a single flap of its six wings, it unleashed a terrifying storm powerful enough to sweep away the entire solar system, wiping out all the demons within a radius of hundreds of light-years and carving out a peaceful haven amidst the demonic tide.

Although this power had never appeared in this realm before, the demons still keenly sensed its potential and flocked to it from distant star fields and galaxies.

Under the watchful gaze of the Primordial Demon Ancestor, the combat power of these demons was elevated to an unprecedented level, so much so that even the Heavenly Demons at the Demon Lord level were almost innumerable.

This is the true foundation that allows the Heavenly Demon Clan to rule the material universe, making it difficult for even immortals and gods to directly confront them, forcing them to retreat to the Earthly Immortal Realm and even shrink into the "Mysterious and Boundless World"!

The mechanical units within the Colossus, fueled by the Getter Rays and spiral forces reaching their limits, were iterating at an incredible speed.

The chest armor unfolded layer by layer, like a lotus flower blooming, revealing the bright red and scorching muzzle, as well as the violent stream of light that surged and collided violently within, eager to burst forth and bring destruction to the world!

Li Ruohai remained with her arms crossed, but a fierce smile crept onto her lips—this was the scene she had become most familiar with in the past twenty years!

The light in the eyes of the steel behemoth grew increasingly intense, as if it wanted to pierce through the universe!

The girl parted her pearly teeth slightly, and though her words uttered in the boundless void, they seemed to resonate throughout the entire universe—

“Getter—beammmmmmmmm!!!!!!”

Although Li Ruohai's voice still carried the clear, crystal-like quality of a young girl, it still possessed a power that shook the heavens and the earth. Even more shocking than his voice was his unparalleled and supreme artillery barrage!

The pylon furnace is operating under overload conditions, and the screw force has been increased to start!

In an instant, the world was no longer dark and pitch black, but instead became incredibly bright. However, even a powerful figure at the Emperor level could not capture any scene with their divine sense.

All they could feel was light, light, light—destructive light!
Billions of celestial demons, powerful enough to traverse the star-studded seas and annihilate one star-level civilization after another, could not withstand even a moment of such a terrifying offensive and were completely annihilated!

If you broaden your perspective to the entire globular cluster, or even the spiral galaxy, you can clearly see a vast tide of blue and red, sweeping away with unparalleled force.

The dark, swirling tide that permeated the universe was utterly powerless against this light, and was easily swallowed up. In no time, the area was completely transformed into a sea of ​​blue and red, leaving no room for darkness!
While Li Ruohai was annihilating this group of Heavenly Demons, in another star field, the Primordial Demon Ancestor, the supreme being of the demonic path, who was comparable to, or even surpassed, the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao, finally descended upon the mortal world!
In truth, although the Primordial Sacred Path has eight demon lords equivalent to great supernatural beings, and attendant demon lords like Devanata who are equivalent to emperors, in terms of high-end combat power, it is still far behind Mount Ling and the Heavenly Court. After all, the fundamental law of the Primordial Sacred Path is the freedom of transformation, which requires destroying the merits of others in order to transcend.

But since immortals, Buddhas, and saints have all retreated to the "mysterious and boundless world" and the realm of earth immortals, how can these heavenly demons under the command of the Primordial Demon Ancestor make any progress?

Even so, apart from those like the Plague Lord and Wutian who were deeply involved with the demonic path, none of the great supernatural beings dared to venture lightly into the material universe.

The most crucial factor lies with this Primordial Demon Ancestor!

Although this Demon Ancestor sought transcendence and aligned himself with the Primordial Holy Path, and for countless eons he has never acted out of his own will, his supernatural powers and magical abilities are still undoubtedly the strongest in this world!

Even many immortals and gods believed that, in terms of realm alone, this Demon Ancestor might only be inferior to the Dao Venerable and the Buddha Ancestor.

As the strongest being in the natural evolution of this universe and the one who best represents the will of heaven and earth, the Primordial Demon Ancestor's opportunity for transcendence lies in the "mysterious and boundless world," or perhaps in the legacy of the Daoist Venerable and the traces left by the Buddha!

Now, the Plague Lord, wielding the power of the Heavenly Rules, has devoted himself entirely to the Primordial Sacred Path. The amplification he has given to this being is beyond question. Reflected in the real universe, this manifests as the boundless, raging dark demonic tide that sweeps across the cosmos.

But Xu Xing had already included the Primordial Demon Ancestor in his challenge list. Now that the time had come, how could he back down in the slightest? He laughed loudly, clenched his right fist, and struck out again!
The laughter had barely left his lips when it transformed into a surging wave, surging back in. A single, powerful fist intent, determined to turn the tide, condensed into a single force, burst forth from his fist and, in a flash, struck before the avatar of the Primordial Demon Ancestor!
This strike contains no real killing power, only a purification, purification and purification again, until it reaches its ultimate, an ethereal and elusive spiritual power that is difficult to grasp.

Although the Eight Emperors Demon Lord's Dharma Image was pierced through by the fist intent, it had no reaction whatsoever, as if the two did not exist in the same world, and what was seen before them was merely a dream.

However, after being struck by the fist intent, the dark figure trembled almost imperceptibly, causing all the kin and slaves under the coverage of the Primordial Sacred Path, as well as all the Heavenly Demons and their kin and slaves, to suddenly freeze.

The originally meticulous and harmonious system of Heavenly Demons, which covered most of the universe, was also disrupted by this fist intent, resulting in the destruction of countless Heavenly Demons.

This punch, along with Li Ruohai's cannon shot, can be said to have worked together from the inside and outside, causing a solid and severe blow to the Heavenly Demon system that would be impossible to heal in a short period of time.

However, the Primordial Demon Ancestor's counterattack was launched in an instant.

Although Xu Xing's fist intent was powerful and profound, the scale of the Heavenly Demon system was simply too enormous.

Since the injury could not be healed, the Primordial Demon Ancestor simply ignored it, instead filling the wound with more Heavenly Demons to cover it up, and further activated the power of the system, bombarding it relentlessly.

When this Demon Ancestor made his move, it was completely contrary to the mysterious, sinister, and all-pervasive characteristics of the demonic path. Instead, it was extremely grand and majestic, purely using its own power to harm people.

He imitated Xu Xing's posture, clenched his right fist, and simply delivered a punch.

Its power was so immense that it was beyond description. The eight demon lords' avatars also merged into it, each wielding their own magic power, drawing in the vast demon realm, and crashing straight into it, spanning the past and the future.

The primordial darkness of the universe and the final catastrophe merged into one, giving rise to all sorts of violent torrents of primordial energy that spread everywhere, and the birth and death of heaven and earth were all under its control.

In fact, in the Yangshen universe, the Creator Daoist and the Longevity Emperor have both exhibited similar behaviors.

However, the Yangshen Universe is restarted every 100,000 years. The two powerful beings ultimately lack the profound foundation accumulated over hundreds of millions of years by the Primordial Demon Ancestor, and they also lack each other's status.

That is why the splendor and magnificence of this scene are completely beyond description; it is a wonder that countless immortals and gods dream of.

However, the place where Xu Xing stood had become a pure land beyond the universe, transcending the cycle of formation, existence, decay, and emptiness, capable of escaping all suffering, averting all calamities, and illuminating the emptiness of the five aggregates.

Even as the endless storms caused the structure of the universe to crumble and disintegrate, Xu Xing's figure became increasingly stable and substantial, even displaying a mysterious yellow hue, as if it were a virtuous aura that remained unmoved and indestructible despite countless tribulations.

The Way of “Shattering the Vacuum” in the Yangshen Universe symbolizes the power of the Earth, requiring one to unite with the universe. Although Xu Xing is a self-made universe, he can still comprehend this profound virtue.

Moreover, Xu Xing also received the inheritance of the Earth Emperor. The similar paths of the two universes combined to form his current unwavering defensive stance. No matter how fierce and powerful the Primordial Demon Ancestor's attacks were, he could not break through in the first place!

In the next instant, another spinning red spear pierced through Xu Xing from behind, carving a straight path through the chaotic scene of the end of the universe, with its tip pointing directly at the Primordial Demon Ancestor!
Xu Xing had already sensed Li Ruohai's aura, smiled slightly, and felt a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a feeling of mixed emotions, often including regret or nostalgia).

After more than twenty years of cultivation and refinement, although his sharpness has not diminished, he has gained more resilience and composure. However, Li Ruohai's divine spear has become even sharper through battles!

For this reason, Xu Xing did not compete with her for the position of main attacker. Instead, he once again activated the fist intent of the virtue of the earth, positioned himself in the center, and dominated all directions, encompassing and controlling all the shattered void around him.

Next, this void is compressed infinitely to form a highly elastic plane. This plane appears stable, but in reality, every part of it is constantly undulating and vibrating.

With another flick and a push of his right hand, Xu Xing twisted the void into a super bowstring that stretched across the starry sea. The surging, extremely powerful force was like a spring, condensed to its limit.

If Xu Xing had just forged a longbow that was not yet ready to be released, then now he has drawn the bow to its fullest extent, gazing towards the northwest, unable to hold back his anger!

Even before the bow is drawn, the force of the bow pull is enough to cause the entire vortex galaxy to tilt and bend!
As soon as Li Ruohai landed here with his red spear, the bowstring snapped open with a roar. Even the Primordial Demon Ancestor had never seen such speed, let alone had any countermeasures.

In the nick of time, the spearhead, amplified infinitely by Getter Line and Spiral Force, appeared before the Primordial Demon Ancestor and pierced through his avatar completely!

In his youth, he used only his spine as a bow and his sinews as a string, shooting down the Heavenly Wolf with a single arrow, his might shaking the Southern Shaolin Temple. Now, he uses the universe as a bow and the void as a string, shattering the demonic aura with a single spear thrust, his power still earth-shattering and captivating the mortal world!
Xu Xing pulled his right hand back again, and Li Ruohai appeared a hundred light-years away. He himself stepped forward again and threw another punch at the clearly visible wound!
With a single strike, the heavens and the universe trembled violently, and the already severely damaged endless demonic tide boiled up like never before!
For billions of years, the Primordial Demon Ancestor had been single-mindedly seeking the Dao, but had only acted in accordance with the Primordial Holy Path. Finally, a clear and perceptible emotion appeared in his eyes—anger!
