The Primordial Law

Chapter 369 I Will Definitely Beat You to Death
Only a force that can produce a martial arts emperor is qualified to establish a nation.

Habitat, named after the country.

The Demon Kingdom's power is terrifying; it can make even the most outstanding talents of the Lingxiao Realm tremble with fear. Any force would tremble before it.

The demon child's deep, unfathomable eyes fell on Taishi Yu: "If a person has invincible strength and an undefeated belief, why can't he be arrogant? I am arrogant, my thoughts are unhindered, and my mind is at ease, while you are helpless and can only bark like dogs. Whose mindset is worse?"

Those who had been sitting at the main table were all top-tier experts within the sixty-year lifespan of the Lingxiao Realm, and their words and actions influenced the world's格局 (geju, a term referring to the overall situation or structure of the world).

At this moment, all of the dozen or so people were furious.

"I'll fight you."

Tai Shiyu had been preparing for tonight's battle for several days.

A blue crystal staff, about the thickness of a thumb, flew out from the spiritual realm of the third eye and landed in the hand.

His body shimmered with spiritual light, and he appeared in the sky above the square, dozens of feet high.

Suspended in the void, his body shone like the blazing sun, his long hair flowed with light, and his mental power surged mightily. Completely different from his usual carefree attitude, he displayed the unparalleled demeanor of the leader of a transcendent clan.

Tai Shi Bai was slightly lost in thought. He hadn't expected that the first person to step forward in the face of the great enemy of the Demon Kingdom would be his cousin, whom he had always looked down upon.

The demon child raised his head: "You're the one who claims to have the strongest mental power in Lingxiao City within sixty years? To be honest, I really don't like fighting mental masters of the same realm; it always feels like bullying. Array formations, talisman techniques, insect control... all these are just flashy tricks, good to look at but useless. As for weapon crafting and alchemy, aren't they just servants and craftsmen kept by martial arts experts?"

"Is that so? It's not too late to say that after the fight."

Tai Shiyu shouted, "Mirroring Heaven and Earth, the True Spirit of the Rising Sun!"

"Wow!"

Above his head, a circular array formed, spreading out in concentric circles and covering an area of ​​several miles. Dense blue array runes flowed within the array.

next moment.

The array plate disappeared, turning into a mirror-like surface.

The mirrored sky reflected the scene of the royal palace on the ground.

The scene before them was utterly awe-inspiring. A master of the "Jiazi Book" exclaimed in surprise, "He has merged the Mirroring Heaven and Earth Array and the Rising Sun True Spirit Array into one. With the two arrays combined, who can stand against him?"

"These two great formations don't seem like they could be drawn up in a short time. Tai Shiyu must have spent at least several days drawing them up in his own spirit realm."

"I never expected... he has already reached the level of a nine-star Spiritual Master!" Tai Shi Bai was greatly shocked. Spiritual power cultivation is much more difficult than martial arts cultivation.

He always believed that he was slightly more talented than Tai Shiyu and worked harder.

But can I cultivate to the ninth level of the Dao Seed Realm before I turn sixty?

It's highly unlikely.

The further one progresses through the Dao Seed Realm, the more time it takes to reach.

Taishi Yu, standing at the center of the mirror, waved his staff from afar. In the mirror world, a crimson sun rose, shining brightly in all directions, carrying a magnificent aura as it bombarded the demon child.

"Ha ha!"

The demon child shot into the sky like a beam of light.

With a single punch, he shattered the rising sun that flew out of the formation, turning it into thousands of fireballs that shot out like meteors.

"Is this your confidence to challenge me? I've already told you, stop with the fancy stuff, it's pointless. In the face of a true martial arts master, it's like a mirage, easily shattered."

The demon child appeared as if a demon god had descended from the sky, the sound of blood flowing through his body roaring. He raised his arm like a blade and cleaved open the mirrored world array, which was several miles in diameter, with overwhelming force.

The sword energy remained undiminished, spreading towards Taishi Yu.

Tai Shiyu's expression changed drastically. At this moment, he finally understood why none of the other five of the Ten Talents of Lingxiao City could withstand three of his moves.

Such combat power completely overturns our understanding.

"Ice, Fire, and Lightning Tribulation".

Tai Shiyu raised his staff, and an array plate condensed, forming a circular shield in front of him. It unleashed three different forces: ice, fire, and lightning, intending to use offense as defense.

However, all the attacks launched from the formation were powerless, unable to withstand the sword energy in the slightest.

"Boom!"

The blade energy unleashed by the demon child shattered the array plate and landed on Taishi Yu.

The protective robe on his body crackled and popped, and his skin exploded, turning into a cloud of blood mist.

Just as Taishi Yu was about to be killed by a sword strike from afar, Song Yulou snorted and a wisp of azure magic energy flew out from his sleeve, like a divine light, shattering the sword light and sword energy unleashed by the demon child.

Taishi Bai used his agility to catch the heavily injured Taishi Yu as he fell.

Li Weiyi, Song Lin, and others rushed over immediately.

Tai Shiyu was severely injured, his skin torn open, a deep gash cleaved into his chest, blood gushing out. He muttered, "I thought... we could at least fight for a dozen or so moves..."

The martial arts practitioners in Lingxiao Realm felt utterly disheartened.

Tai Shiyu arrived with two large formations, but was severely injured and nearly killed in the second move, without even using any magical artifacts. Was that really a martial artist at the ninth level of the Dao Seed Realm?
How can the gap be so big?

Taishi Bai fed Taishi Yu a pill and continuously circulated his magical energy to help him heal: "Others at Du'e Temple are the first to do this. Facing such a formidable enemy, you were able to stand up and fight, which shows great courage and has already brought honor to the Taishi family."

"I'm just... too physically weak, otherwise I definitely could have withstood the second move..." Tai Shiyu said.

Tai Shi Bai said, "Stop being stubborn, heal your injuries first." Li Weiyi clearly saw that the blade light that the Demon Child swung his arm out was still some distance away from Tai Shi Yu, so how did it hit him prematurely?
If such swordsmanship were used with a powerful magical weapon, what kind of power would it possess?

Below the Longevity Realm, is there anyone who can withstand a single blow from his blade?
Tang Wanzhou's thoughts came from the Buddha's relic: "It seems that there are still some powerful figures in Yingzhou."

Li Wei sent a telepathic message to her, saying irritably, "He was brought here by your brother; he came to Lingxiao Realm to challenge you."

"That's wonderful. Please pass on a message to him: hurry up and break through to the Immortal Realm. I've never encountered an opponent of the same realm who can make me take this seriously," Tang Wanzhou said.

"Why are they all so arrogant?" Li Weiyi thought to himself.

The demonic child hovered dozens of feet in the air, with pillars of demonic energy beneath his feet. His eyes were fixed on Song Yulou: "You've broken through to the Immortal Realm?"

Song Yulou, dressed in a cloud-patterned white robe with jet-black hair and sword-like eyebrows, looked quite dashing and handsome, though not yet thirty years old. He said with sharp eyes, "If I had known you would come, I, Song, would definitely have fought you on behalf of the Lingxiao Realm. Unfortunately, I do not have the ability to foresee the future, nor can I wait for an opponent in the Dao Seed Realm forever."

The demon child said, "I think you're just afraid of losing, so you deliberately went into seclusion to avoid battle a few days ago."

Song Yulou said, "Do you really think that just because you come from Du'e Temple and the Demon Kingdom, you can look down on the martial arts practitioners of Lingxiao? A thousand years ago, when the Mist Emperor was still alive, could you compare to the strength of the Lingxiao realm? Lingxiao has countless top-notch martial arts inheritances. The martial arts practitioners born on this land are by no means weaker than yours."

The demon child spoke with disdain: "A thousand years have passed, and you're still clinging to your past glory? The once magnificent kingdom is now just a shallow shoal. The Demon Kingdom doesn't even need the Demon Lord to come in person; any Demon Minister or Demon Lord could wipe out all of you transcendent beings."

Zuoqiu Ling took a step forward, his voice like thunder: "Demon Child, you've broken through to the Immortal Realm, I'll fight you. I'll definitely kill you, my name is Zuoqiu Ling."

Previously, many people believed that the Demon Child represented the Temple of Crossing Calamities and acted arrogantly in Lingxiao City to undermine the prestige of Lingxiao Palace in order to help the Zuoqiu Sect.

However, Zuoqiu Ling's attitude forced everyone to rethink the true purpose of the Demon Child.

The demon child threw his head back and laughed loudly, his voice shifting between child and man: "You are in the Longevity Realm, so the Crossing Calamity Temple naturally has Longevity Realm experts stronger than me to suppress you. But you are in the Soaring Heaven Realm, not to mention the top figures of the ninth level of the Dao Seed Realm. Which level of the Ninefold Dao Image Diagram have you broken through? So, decline is decline, and making excuses is meaningless."

"Your so-called top-tier traditions are utterly insignificant in the face of the Crossing the Calamity Temple."

"I've heard that ever since Chanhai Guanwu became the ruler of the Living Realm, Lingxiao has been dominated by women and deficient in men. After Yuyaozi took over Lingxiao Palace, she even issued the Small Field Decree. How come there isn't a single complete man left in the Lingxiao Living Realm? Below the Longevity Realm, who can fight me?"

These words ignited everyone's anger.

"I, your subject, will challenge you! Song Yulou has broken through to the Immortal Realm, and I will become the number one Dao Seed Realm cultivator in Lingxiao City."

The emperor, clad in golden armor with a qilin pattern, possessed a robust physique, long arms, and held a golden sword with dragon patterns. He flew out from beside Song Yulou.

He released the external manifestation of his Daoist heart, enveloping the entire West Sea King's Palace in a golden glow. His battle intent condensed into thousands of wondrous cavalrymen, their golden spears and iron horses gleaming, their battle flags fluttering in the wind.

One person moves forward, as if a thousand troops are following along.

“Let me go first. I, Cao Shisan, am the number one Dao Seed Realm cultivator in Lingxiao City today.”

Nine Nine Nether Rings flew out from Cao Shisan's ancestral field, surrounded by thousands of scriptures.

With each step, wind and thunder roared, magical energy dissipated demonic energy, and the entire city trembled slightly.

Your Majesty, I come from the prominent and distinguished Chen family of the imperial court.

Cao Shisan was the adopted son of one of the seven extraordinary Cao Caishen of the imperial court.

These two, along with Song Yulou, are recognized as the top three among the Ten Talents.

Three hundred feet above the West Sea King's Palace, an ancient battle platform spanning ten miles in circumference opened, hovering below the clouds, with spiritual chains hanging down on all four sides of the platform.

Demon Child could tell that both Emperor Chen and Cao Shisan were carrying powerful artifacts of the Thousand Character Sutra level, indicating they were well-prepared. He let out a childlike laugh and said, "You two stop arguing and come at me together. If you can force me to use my artifact, you win."

The Emperor and Cao Shisan exchanged a glance, both knowing that the enemy was formidable and that they had no chance of winning in a one-on-one fight.

Defeating it by working together is also a victory.

"Shh! Shh!"

They flew straight up to the sky, intending to ascend the ancient battle platform.

The Demon Child was much faster than them, catching up to them overhead. He waved his hand at Cao Shisan and laughed, "Treating you will be a matter of a few moves. Why bother climbing the ancient battle platform?"

Five tiny fingers of a child transformed into a demonic handprint tens of meters in size.

The handprint pressed down on Cao Shisan's head like a cloud, causing a large area of ​​the air to cave in.

Cao Shisan's pupils contracted sharply as he raised the Nine Nether Rings to defend himself. The energy of the Thousand Character Sutra artifact erupted, and the nine rings connected in a line, shattering the handprint that was pressing down from the sky.

Before Cao Shisan could show any joy, the Demon Child appeared beneath him like lightning, grabbed his left ankle, pulled him down, swung him around in a circle, and then casually threw him away.

It didn't resemble a duel between strong individuals at all; rather, it seemed like a one-sided game of toying and mockery.

"Relying solely on magical artifacts is putting the cart before the horse. The stronger the artifact, the longer it takes to activate, and the less control it has over time. In a duel between top experts, life and death can be decided in the blink of an eye. One's own strength is always the most important."

The demon child's voice was mocking.

It's not simply about being a tyrant; it's about using words to undermine your opponent's confidence, causing them to fall into self-doubt and self-denial.

"Boom!"

Disoriented, Cao Shisan plummeted to the ground, his body crashing through a high wall in the palace, creating a deep crater several meters in diameter.

Fortunately, he was physically strong and protected by his battle armor. He quickly stood up unsteadily, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and, enraged, soared into the sky.

Taking advantage of the moment when the Demon Child was dealing with Cao Shisan, the Emperor activated the scriptures within the dragon-patterned golden sword in his hand, unleashing the power of the thousand-character weapon and cleaving out a world-shattering strike.

The blade's energy, like a curtain of light, horizontally cleaved the heavens and earth.

The demon child easily dodged the attack, then struck at close range with a palm, denting the emperor's armor and sending him flying like a cannonball.
