Chapter 170 The Gate of Xuanpin!

The Stitched Demon gathered all his demonic power and punched out with a punch powerful enough to collapse mountains and split the earth. However, the Guardian God simply raised the black shield transformed by the Ghost Armor Technique in his hand and easily blocked the attack.

Even the aftermath was blocked by the Ghost Armor Technique and had no effect on Lu Yan at all.

Lu Yan stood on the top of the mountain and did not choose to take action, but instead watched the monsters on the battlefields.

In the Nine Nether Yin Wind Formation, three demons have already died from the Nine Nether Yin Wind. This makes Lu Yan certain that not all demons possess the nearly immortal means like the Stitching Demon.

Each demon has different characteristics, but all of them can display their abilities close to the best in the areas they are good at.

For example, the white wolf covered with pus-filled sores possesses extremely powerful plague characteristics. No matter whether it is the evil soldiers, ferocious beasts, or even other demons, if they get close to the juice left by the bursting pus-filled sores, they will be affected by the plague.

Even a brief contact is enough to spread the plague, which neither the body nor the soul can resist, and the end result is the decay of the body and the collapse of the soul.

Fortunately, apart from the plague characteristics, the white wolf's own strength was not very strong. Its soul was blown away the moment the Nine Nether Yin Wind Formation was activated, and the damage caused was extremely limited.

The next one is the one-legged giant who was fighting with the giant spirit. Although he only has one leg, his speed is unusually fast.

Even with Lu Yan's eyes, it was difficult to see the speed of the one-legged giant.

With such fast speed as well as strong body and strength, the one-legged giant can definitely be called a overlord among the foundation-building ones.

But unfortunately, he met the giant spirit.

The giant spirit god walking on the road of omniscience first severely damaged the one-legged giant with the Nine Nether Yin Wind Formation, reducing its strength to only one tenth of what it was.

In the subsequent confrontation, the giant spirit didn't even need to see the one-legged giant's movements clearly.

With the help of powerful soul computing power, the giant spirit can easily deduce every attack of the one-legged giant, and then respond with the advantage of his own strength, easily crushing the one-legged giant.

In addition to these monsters, Lu Yan also thought of the swarm of mist insects he had seen before.

Those fog insect swarms can even devour the soul-devouring dark wind, and their devouring characteristics have reached the extreme.

Combined with the immortal ability displayed by the stitched demon, Lu Yan already had some guesses in his mind.

The stitching demon continued to attack, but was unable to break through the guardian god's defense.

And because the guardian deity did not actively attack, the stitched demon could not die at all, and could not use its special ability to be reborn and become stronger.

On the contrary, as the demonic energy was consumed, his body was gradually shrinking, from the more than five-meter-tall stitched demon to less than three meters.

This situation finally made the stitching demon feel fear, and he no longer had his previous arrogance.

He turned around and tried to escape, but was tightly entangled by a soul-catching rope.

"You think you can trap me with just these things?"

The explosion of demonic energy broke the soul-catching ropes, but the next moment dozens or even hundreds of soul-catching ropes wrapped around every inch of the stitched demon's body, locking it in place.

On the other side of the battlefield, all the demons were wiped out by the ghosts and gods, including the one-legged giant.

These powerful demons had not even displayed their true strength before they were killed or injured by the precise calculations of the giant spirit, leaving only the stitched demons with immortal power.

Lu Yan walked up to the Stitched Demon that had been tied up like a dumpling. His body, which was less than three meters tall, had already caused the Stitched Demon's aura to drop to the initial stage of foundation building.

After struggling several times, the stitching demon could only stare at Lu Yan with a vicious look.

"Is this the immortal demon that my Lord spoke of?"

The giant spirit walked in the front, looking curiously at the stitched demon in front of him.

"How can there be such a strange creature?"

Reaching out to touch it, a stream of Yin energy merged into the body of the stitched demon, instantly arousing the demon's ferocity.

"I am immortal. Even if you kill me ten thousand times, I will still survive!"

The giant spirit raised his eyebrows and said:

"Oh? If that's the case, it would be convenient for me to do some experiments.

For example, I could cut up your body and bury it in different corners of the world to see if your immortality is the result of another you growing out of a certain part of your body, or if you need the body parts to be reassembled to be reborn?" "Or I could cut up your soul, then repair the cut soul and cultivate it into a complete and independent soul individual.

Then I will force all the souls into your body, and let your many split souls fight for control of the body."

"Of course, I will also implant multiple memories into your soul, so that you can no longer distinguish between reality and fantasy."

At this point, the giant spirit showed a strange smile: "For example, do you think that everything you are experiencing now is real or illusory?"

A look of fear suddenly appeared on the stitched demon's face, and he looked at the giant spirit as if he was looking at a giant demon covered in human skin.

Lu Yan looked at the giant spirit with a face full of evil humor, and asked with a slight twitch of his mouth:
"Can you tell where his immortality comes from?"

Hearing Lu Yan's question, the smile on the giant spirit's face faded and he looked serious.

“The extreme speed of the one-legged giant and the plague of the white wolf demon are both similar to the innate abilities they possess.

His original form is human, and he has transformed into his current form after practicing some kind of method. "

“But in essence, they are all borrowing power from the great Dao of heaven and earth in this world, thereby deriving powerful characteristics that do not belong to this level at all.

It’s just that the avenue of heaven and earth in this world is too strange. From the moment they integrated their bodies and minds into the avenue of heaven and earth, they were already on the wrong path.”

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately aroused fierce resistance from the stitching demon.

He stared at the giant spirit, as if he had seen the murderer of his father, and let out a low growl.

"I'm not wrong! I'm the one pursuing the essence of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth!
You fools simply cannot comprehend how lofty and great the Dao of Heaven and Earth is!"

As he spoke, the Stitching Demon's gaze suddenly fell on Lu Yan, his eyes full of sarcasm.

"Especially you! You possess seventeen top-notch true methods, and are hated by countless creatures in this world. Yet you have a mountain of treasures but don't realize it, and you don't know the profound meaning of the great way at all.

With your strength, you will sooner or later become food for the big demon!"

Lu Yan slowly raised his hand with an indifferent expression and reached out for the stitched demon's head. This action immediately made the stitched demon laugh wildly and crazily.

"You can't kill me!"

Lu Yan said calmly: "I just want you to see the true meaning of the avenue you have always dreamed of."

As he spoke, the space above Lu Yan's palm suddenly twisted, and an illusory portal opened in Lu Yan's palm.

Everyone was staring at that portal, as if they had seen the source of all things in the universe, the starting point of all the great ways in the world. Infinite mysteries were all revealed in Lu Yan's palm.

The stitching demon's face was full of disbelief.

"Impossible! How can you grasp the true meaning of the Dao if your body is not demonized and you are not close to the Dao of Heaven and Earth!"

"It's fake. It's absolutely fake."

"You are lying to me. This is a false memory. This is the real dream of the great demon!"

The Stitched Demon completely collapsed. In order to pursue the true meaning of the Tao, he abandoned his body and reason. He was in a daze for most of the day, so he made a big mistake and fled the city.

The truth of the great Dao that he had spent his entire life pursuing turned out to be wrong in the end. Lu Yan was able to display the truth of the great Dao with his ordinary human body, and it was even more noble and great than his truth of immortality.

All these scenes completely overwhelmed his mind.

Lu Yan didn't say anything, but slowly lowered his hand.

The next moment, the stitched demon's soul collapsed and its breath dissipated.

In the face of the true meaning of the higher great way, the so-called meaning of immortality is just an illusion.

Gazing at the portal in his hand that gathered thousands of avenues, Lu Yan softly recited His name.

"The Gate of Mysterious Women!"
