Secular world: My destiny has no taboos

Chapters 569 and 579: The Gaze of Heaven in the Mundane World
"The Ten Evil Death Curses!"

As the evil spirit uttered those sinister words, the viscous cage of divine power suddenly contracted, forming a square that trapped Lin Beixuan within.

At this moment, Lin Beixuan was in the middle of it, and the viscous divine power kept drilling into his body in a frenzied manner.

Plague, decay, madness, despair, curse, depravity, erosion, filth, hatred, death.

One after another, streams of extreme negative energy were directed at Lin Beixuan's soul essence, each containing a terrifying power capable of destroying the will to live.

Lin Beixuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and the star patterns on the surface of his Desolate Universe Divine Body suddenly lit up, attempting to expel these negative energies from his body.

He had a premonition that if he allowed these energies to remain in his body for a long time, even if he eventually killed the Evil Spirit Lord, he would suffer unimaginable damage from these powers.

"call……"

Just then, Lin Beixuan felt a spring breeze suddenly brush against his cheek, and large raindrops fell.

Lin Beixuan raised his hand to catch the rain, and looked up to see that the Four Symbols Dragon Horns had appeared above his head at some unknown time, and the power they wielded was like a thin veil gently covering him.

"Is it helping me?"

Lin Beixuan was somewhat surprised. The true spirit within the Four Symbols Dragon Horns clearly resisted his rash use of the Four Symbols Divine Power, so why would it take the initiative to appear and protect him at this moment?
Lin Beixuan was very puzzled by this, but now was not the time to think about it too much.

With the blessing of the Four Symbols Divine Power, his divine power gained temporary freedom in the spring thunder and summer rain, allowing him to resist the erosion of the evil spirit true lord's divine power without having to expend any of his strength.

Lin Beixuan spread his five fingers. Although the sticky evil spirit power binding him made it very difficult for him to move, it could not stop his divine power from circulating again.

Star patterns flickered on Huangyu Divine Body as Lin Beixuan gathered all his power into the space between his eyebrows.

The killing seal erupted with a dense surge of divine power, rippling like a tide, causing what lay hidden beneath to tremble, as if it were about to break free.

"bring it on!"

Lin Beixuan had previously felt that the things contained within his killing seal were extraordinary, and that after breaking through, there might be manifestations that he could not control. However, now, it was just right.

With the continuous infusion of divine power, the killing seal's fluctuations grew stronger. With a 'sizzle' sound, the skin between Lin Beixuan's eyebrows tore open, and a black, gaping eye popped out.

This eye is completely black, without a pupil, and seems capable of devouring all light.

The moment it appeared, the divine power of the writhing evil spirits around it froze.

The evil spirit who had transformed into the Death Curse suddenly felt an unprecedented chill, an instinctive fear.

Lin Beixuan remained expressionless, his black eyes slowly moving. Wherever they passed, the negative energy that was eroding his body seemed to encounter something terrifying, and instantly began to dissolve.

"kill!"

A chilling thought burst forth from his dark eyes.

In an instant, the ten chains that bound Lin Beixuan were severed by an invisible blade and collapsed.

The death curse cage that trapped him solidified in that instant, before shattering into pieces.

The white face of the Evil Spirit True Lord materialized before Lin Beixuan, staring incredulously at the eye between Lin Beixuan's brows.

After a moment of disorientation, he suddenly burst into wild laughter again.

"That's it! The Heavenly Tribulation of the Desolate Sun, the Star of Calamity—this is the true power of the Desolate Sun Calamity Lord! This is right! This is right!!"

"How can a mere evil star compare to a killing star? The killing star chases the sun, the evil star wreaks havoc. Fate has ordained me to submit to you. This is fate, and my defeat is not unjust!"

Lin Beixuan slowly raised his head, his black eyes staring directly at the Evil Spirit True Monarch, as if he wanted to devour the other's soul.

"Haven't you always wanted to know what other trump cards I have up my sleeve?" Lin Beixuan's voice was as cold as winter: "Now you see."

"I saw it."

The Evil Spirit Lord laughed maniacally, his laughter sounding like the frenzied roars of countless mental patients in a mental hospital—neurotic and morbid.

He seemed completely unconcerned about his impending demise, and instead looked at Lin Beixuan with deep appreciation, as if he were looking at a flawless work of art.

"It's so beautiful!"

A black light suddenly burst forth from the pure black eyes. This light was not a physical attack, but a wisp of pure will.

Killing intent.

This killing intent pierced through all authority and divine power, and even the rules of heaven and earth could not restrain it.

The Evil Spirit Lord felt his soul being torn apart by an invisible force in that instant.

But his laughter continued, as if it would never stop.

The four dragon horns trembled slightly, as if affected by the killing intent. The divine power they released gradually decreased and eventually returned to Lin Beixuan's incense temple.

"Hahahaha... To see the greatest work of art in the world, even death would be worth it."

As the consciousness of the Evil Spirit Lord gradually faded, his eyes remained fixed on Lin Beixuan, never wavering until the very end.

Unlike the goddess Zigu, he didn't have his own ambitions and obsessions. He was more like a crazy mental patient. He didn't care what others thought about his actions. Even the chaos he stirred up was just to verify something.

He abandoned his physical body, replaced it with organs that were not his own, and transformed himself into a form that was neither human nor ghost.

He could sacrifice the lives of an entire state for his experiments, and just to taste the flavor of the Great God, he would devour the Yamata no Orochi.

He coveted Lin Beixuan's body, wanting to know whether the Killing Star or the Evil Star was stronger.

Ultimately, he lived his whole life simply to pursue what he wanted.

A terrifying suction force erupted from the black eye between Lin Beixuan's brows.

He couldn't control this suction force; it was like a bottomless abyss, frantically devouring the divine power and essence of the Evil Spirit True Lord.

At this moment, the black eye was like a container that could contain everything, transforming everything of the Evil Spirit True Lord into strange energy and sending it to Lin Beixuan's limbs and bones.

After the divine power and origin of these evil spirits entered his body, Lin Beixuan felt as if every cell in his body was being filled with something.

His divine body underwent another change; the star patterns that appeared on his surface gradually turned black, and the authority and power of the Evil Spirit True Lord swirled around them.

However, these forces did not harm him; instead, they acted like a layer of oil floating on the water's surface, protecting the underground water.

Only after the black eye finished devouring everything was Lin Beixuan able to regain control. He slowly closed the eye between his eyebrows, and the torn wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Just as I expected, I can't fully control the Killing Seal."

Lin Beixuan reached up and touched his forehead, discovering that the bump under his skin had disappeared.

At the same time, a long-awaited notification from the panel appeared in his mind.

[You have slain the great mortal god, the Evil Spirit True Lord, destroying his foundation and annihilating his divine realm. Your fame for slaying the great mortal god has resounded throughout the mortal world. Reputation and annual rewards can no longer satisfy your inflated desires; these are merely burdens.]

……

As the notification messages on the panel in his mind floated up one by one, Lin Beixuan's breathing became somewhat rapid.

"Is this the reward for killing a great god? Even reputation and destiny are no longer worthy of being rewards!"

Lin Beixuan's consciousness stirred, and he slightly raised his head. He saw that the sky was being torn apart by a terrifying force, and the strange phenomenon that rose up even surpassed the battle between the Great Sage Ling Shu and the Desolate God.

The clouds parted to reveal the dark sky, and a massive energy tide slowly descended from the horizon, converging into an inverted triangular energy vortex.

At the center of this vortex, a jet-black divine sword pierced through the illusion, transforming the void into reality.

The sword was covered with dense ancient runes, each one seemingly telling a story of endless slaughter and destruction.

A terrifying killing intent pressed down, affecting the entire Liangzhou and half of the surrounding prefectures.

Everyone experienced a moment of disorientation, as if they were surrounded by a raging sea of ​​blood, their eyes filled with darkness and crimson, and a towering giant sword piercing into their hearts.

After a moment of confusion, everyone came to their senses again. Whether they were generals, kings, or commoners, they all subconsciously looked towards Liangzhou.

This wasn't directed at anyone in particular; it was simply the unintentional pressure emanating from the sword that caused everyone in the entire state to fall into a state of mental illusion.

Lin Beixuan, however, did not feel this way. He raised his head and stared at the slowly descending sword, only sensing an ancient killing aura.

"Godslayer Sword!"

He reached out, and the sword instantly transformed into a stream of light, disappearing into his palm. With just a thought, he could draw the sword at any time.

After the God-Slaying Sword entered his body, Lin Beixuan even sensed the Choice trembling violently, and a wisp of resentment entered his mind.

"Even you are feeling scared?"

Lin Beixuan was somewhat alarmed. He knew that since the day the Choice was created, it had never been afraid of any weapon, not even the Nine Heavens Profound Yellow Pagoda.

However, after the appearance of the God-Slaying Sword, Choice buried itself deep within, seemingly afraid to touch the sharp edge of the God-Slaying Sword.

As for the Nine Heavens Profound Yellow Pagoda... it never even appeared from beginning to end.

"The third volume of the Legendary Weapons Compendium possesses such power?"

Lin Beixuan was somewhat surprised, so he looked at the information about the God-Slaying Sword on the panel.

【Name: God-Slaying Sword (God)】

[Introduction: Divine punishment from the Heavenly Court, punishing the sins of murder. The Heavenly Lord Haotian of the Heavenly Palace wields the sword of slaying gods and altering the heavens. One strike cleaves the divine realm, two strikes sever the divine essence, and three strikes annihilate the god, preventing them from entering the cycle of incense offerings and reincarnation.]

[Since you have not yet gained the approval of the Godslayer Sword's spirit, you can only use a portion of the Godslayer Sword's legal authority.]

【Power One: Sweeping Gods (Metal)】

[Slaying Gods: A single sword strike cleaves through the divine realm. Under this single strike, neither the Heavenly Dao nor the Three Thousand Laws can stop it. This sword transcends realms, physical form, and the mysteries of cause and effect; it will surely shatter the divine realm.]

……

"Gulu~"

Lin Beixuan's Adam's apple bobbed. Since his ascension to the Human Immortal realm, his emotions had not fluctuated so violently for a long time.

This Godslayer Sword is absolutely the most powerful artifact he has ever seen, bar none.

If it were a complete Book of Life and Death, it might be stronger than the God-Slaying Sword, but in terms of killing and conquest, even the Book of Life and Death would probably be no match for it.

He has not yet gained the approval of the God-Slaying Sword and can only wield a portion of its laws and authority. This sword strike, regardless of the opponent's realm or the strength of their authority, will surely shatter their divine domain.

In other words, even if a Celestial Venerable stood in front of him, he could shatter the opponent's spatial divine domain with a single sword strike.

This is simply a conceptual marvel.

No swordsmanship or timing is required; it's all about pure numbers.

"But... wouldn't it place very high demands on the swordsman to unleash this strike?"

Thinking of this, Lin Beixuan looked at the panel again.

Then, his face immediately fell.

Because in his current state, he couldn't even unleash a single strike from the God-Slaying Sword.

The high values ​​are true, but behind these values ​​lies the support of powerful forces.

Leaving aside the divine power of 50 offerings, Lin Beixuan doesn't even have that concept yet.

But what's with this "lifespan of a hundred years" nonsense?

Lin Beixuan didn't know how long he would live, but he didn't think he would want to trade his lifespan for the chance to unleash the first strike of the God-Slaying Sword.

After all, the God-Slaying Sword technique only cleaves through the opponent's divine domain, not directly annihilates them.

Consuming a massive amount of divine power and lifespan just to break through the opponent's divine domain is not worthwhile for Lin Beixuan.

"So it turns out it can only be used as a prop." Lin Beixuan sighed.

He also needs to gain the approval of the sword spirit of the God-Slaying Sword before he can unleash the second and third sword strikes.

Even if he gains the sword spirit's approval, the price he will have to pay will likely only become more terrifying with each strike. Lin Beixuan doesn't think he would use the God-Slaying Sword to kill people unless absolutely necessary.

"Actually, the choice is quite good, after all, it's my exclusive weapon!"

Lin Beixuan thought about it, and his expectations for the God-Slaying Sword gradually faded.

He then turned his attention to other rewards.

The Destiny and Clothing section wasn't very interesting, and he only glanced at the Evil Spirit True Lord's relics before losing interest.

As for the path to power of the Evil Spirit True Lord, Lin Beixuan did not think he would study it. So he simply integrated it into the origin and divine power of the Evil Spirit True Lord on the surface of his body, planning to look into it when he had time.

Finally, there was the reward that surprised him the most.

A moment of humility from the heavens.
