The Peerless Tang Sect: Heavenly Heart Douluo

Just as Gu Yuena was struggling to resist the influence of the power of creation, deep but subtle cracks suddenly appeared in the pale pink crystal ball in the hands of the Creator God, which imprisoned a large number of powerful figures in the Apocalypse Empire.

Following these cracks, one could see that the powerful figures of the Apocalypse Empire had been transformed into clusters of dark power of belief. Within this darkness, faint rays of true spirit light disappeared, returning to the plane of the dead through the consciousness connection network.

The God of Creation's expression changed slightly, and the pale pink crystal ball that he had been holding flew out and shattered into pieces not far away.

At the same time, along with the gathering of the power of belief, Gu Yuena's body and the super artifact in her hand also began to emanate into the dark power of belief.

With the aggregation of a large amount of faith power, Huo Yuhao's figure was finally revealed in the God Realm, appearing before the God of Creation.

"Unite all, I am the only one who reigns supreme. God of Destruction, Goddess of Life, let me see if your power of creation can match the power of my belief." The pitch-black humanoid spoke calmly.

But the Creator God's gaze had lost its previous tranquility and turned icy: "Sacrificing all your subordinates for temporary power, is this your path, God?"

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao simply smiled indifferently: "Human beings are born with eight sufferings: birth, old age, sickness, death, separation from loved ones, encountering those one hates, not getting what one desires, and the five aggregates. All sentient beings suffer."

"The first suffering is birth. After coming into this world, I lost my original body, but retained my consciousness and became an infant."

"I have come to this strange world, separated from everything I once knew, lost everything I once possessed, and left only with a lonely consciousness, starting from scratch to understand this world. This is the suffering of life."

As Huo Yuhao spoke, the power of belief gradually distorted the surrounding environment, spreading outwards.

Gradually, it rivaled the domain of the creator god, while the deity within the domain felt his body growing weaker and weaker, gradually transforming into a newborn infant.

However, their spirit and will remained unchanged. They felt their weak bodies becoming uncontrollable, their bodies gradually becoming restrained and powerless, and the surrounding laws gradually slipping out of their control.

Feeling one's body become extremely uncomfortable due to even the slightest changes in the external environment is a kind of pain that is hard to describe. Even some of the gods who became gods from mortals were once infants.

However, due to their weak mental and physical development in childhood, none of these people could recall their original form at birth, and at this moment they all felt a strange sense of separation.

"Therefore, some deities exist just like you, the God of Destruction and the Goddess of Life, who are born holy from the laws and elements, but who can bear the suffering of countless mortals?"

As the dark power of belief continued to erode, the domain of the Creator God was gradually compressed. However, compared to other vulnerable deities, the pale pink radiance barrier surrounding the Creator God was only slightly dusty at this moment.

"The second suffering is old age, which means from youth to adulthood, and from adulthood to old age. One's strength is waning, one's movements become restless, one's prime fades and declines, one's spirit is depleted, one's lifespan is shortened day by day, and one gradually decays."

"I was not an ignorant child before I came into this world. Although physical age can affect mental age, after I gained control of my innate power, my body is more influenced by my will."

"As my small body grew, I began to think about this issue. Because of my limited understanding, my fear of aging was more severe than others, and I thought about it much more."

"In this world where immortality is possible, I can't be as at peace with myself as I was in my previous life. After all, if it were possible, who would want to watch themselves grow old step by step?"

"But the fate of this body has already been set in motion. Will I follow that person's plan and become a puppet, a tool god who gains immortality but no freedom? Or will I rise up in rebellion, or face the possibility of being annihilated, body and soul?"

"For a long time, I was troubled by this problem. It was only after I awakened my innate power that I decided to take a gamble. After all, the worst that could happen was that I would just have to give up this body that didn't belong to me in the first place."

Huo Yuhao seemed to be chatting with the God of Creation, or perhaps confiding something to the Gods, while the vast majority of deities in the God Realm were suffering greatly at this moment.

The body, already weakened by the power of belief, began to grow and develop rapidly, and then began to age and decline.

This sudden change overwhelmed them, leaving them only able to utter incoherent syllables. They were filled with immense panic, wondering how this so-called God could accomplish such a feat.

Words alone were enough to turn these senior gods into mere playthings, offering them no resistance whatsoever.

"The fourth suffering is the suffering of illness, and the fifth suffering is the suffering of death. Although we try our best to avoid them, our bodies are still too weak at the beginning, and coupled with the harsh environment, it is inevitable that we will catch a cold, get a fever, or get sick."

"However, my power of belief allows me to be clearly aware of everything about myself. When my power of belief is still weak, I am inevitably affected by illness and some minor injuries accumulated due to the harsh living environment."

"Even though I eventually resolved it, the feeling of my body's cells weakening and being powerless to struggle was really unpleasant."

"And isn't disease the calamity that the gods are most willing to bring upon mortals? Just like the birth mother of this body of mine."

"Her body was tormented to death by disease, and her soul was taken away. Although I cannot fully accept her, she is the first person to die of illness before my eyes."

At this moment, the gods could only let out painful gasps and gasps.

Their already frail bodies were now even weaker, their breaths barely audible, and all the gods felt as if their lives were about to end.

Meanwhile, the barrier formed by the power of creation around the God of Creation began to dim and shatter, and Huo Yuhao's power of belief had begun to penetrate into the God of Creation's power.

"Love is separation, hatred is meeting, desire is not fulfilled. As a promising and excellent puppet, my future love and family relationships are all under the control and manipulation of others."

"Therefore, I have never dared to open my heart to this world, even though I have come to understand that, apart from forced usurpation and long-term accumulation, there is no other way."

"The power of my beliefs can only be fully unleashed after I have completely embraced this world."

"But I can't do it. I don't dare to do it, nor do I want to. I have desires but dare not take them. I act cautiously for fear of making a mistake. And the more I try to get rid of them, the more I trigger the actions of the people I despise."

At this moment, countless emotions rose rapidly in the hearts of the gods, only to vanish just as quickly. Caught between gain and loss, the gods felt as if their souls, consciousness, and bodies were incompatible and on the verge of falling apart at any moment.

"Compared to the physical suffering of the former, this is more about the questioning and torment of the mind, and the suffering of the five aggregates arises simultaneously with the torment of the body and mind."

"The disharmony between my soul, body, and consciousness became increasingly apparent to me, and I felt out of place in this world. To break free from the shackles of fate, this troubled me for a long time."

"Until one day I can say it was an 'enlightenment'? Or something else." The dark humanoid being before the God of Creation gently touched the cracked, pale pink protective shield with its 'hand'.

The protective barrier crumbled instantly, but the powerful and pure body of the God of Creation became the last line of defense against the erosion of Huo Yuhao's power of belief.

"I combine the physical strength of blood and qi, the energy of the soul, and the spiritual strength of the mind, and govern them all with the power of belief. I have abandoned my weak physical body and inferior energy, and wholeheartedly promoted the development of my will."

"Because how does a person decide that they are a person? Or how do you consider yourself to be yourself? In my view, only when consciousness exists can I exist, and only then is my existence correct."

"If someone uses the same power and body as me, but does not have my memories, my ideas, or my will, then he cannot be me."

"Birth, old age, sickness, and death are all suffering; what need is there for this physical body? The true spirit, eternally indestructible, will be passed down through countless lifetimes. This is my world! My creation! My Tao!"

The God of Creation suddenly spat out a mouthful of divine blood, which was mixed with a dark power of belief. This power of belief was planted by Huo Yuhao in the Dragon Horse Star System from the beginning, and it was also a poison that had been buried long ago.

At this moment, the heavens and earth of the divine realm also began to tremble.

Why did the Creator God never confront Huo Yuhao's power of conviction to save the gods of the divine realm? Why did the Creator God allow Huo Yuhao's power of conviction to erode him?

Besides the internal and external cooperation of the power of faith left by Huo Yuhao within his body, there was also the invasion from the plane of the dead.

"It's all or nothing," Huo Yuhao cut off all escape routes, leaving all his subordinates, except for the one whose true spirit could be confirmed, in the plane of the dead.

They burned their bodies, spirits, and souls to fuel themselves, transforming them into the power of belief. This power of belief was strong enough to rival the power of creation, but the power of creation was stronger because of its endless cycle of life.

If this continues, the power of belief that Huo Yuhao extracted by forcibly sacrificing everyone's strength will eventually be exhausted.

Therefore, apart from suppressing the gods with the power of faith, Huo Yuhao directly manipulated the undead plane to constantly crash into the divine realm.

The immense mass emanating from the material world is constantly squeezing the divine realm, which is located in the energy realm but is already on the verge of collapse.

Aside from the power of creation used for self-preservation, the silent God of Creation continuously stimulates this power to protect the divine realm from the impact of the plane of the dead.

But He failed. Huo Yuhao held nothing back this time. He used more than 100% of his power of belief. As the power of belief continued to erode, the gods who had lost their ability to resist were transformed into energy packs that supplied him with the power of belief.

With the final activation, the Creator God's own defenses collapsed, and so did the defenses outside the divine realm.

The phrase "the heavens collapsed and the earth cracked" is an extremely exaggerated description, yet it truly appeared in the realm of gods.

A barren land was constantly pressing in and approaching from the heavens above the realm of gods, where the sun and moon did not revolve but hung high all year round.

At this moment, the gods had completely lost their means of resistance. They closed their eyes and prayed, praying to the strong one who had defeated the creator god, to God, begging the victor to stop.

With the destruction of the divine realm and his own injuries caused by the constant erosion of the power of faith, the God of Creation finally disintegrated and transformed back into the God of Destruction and the Goddess of Life, although their auras were still as powerful as those of a god-king.

But at this moment, Huo Yuhao is already a being above the God King.

"Submit to my world, my path, or let my world utterly annihilate you." The twisted power of belief surged forth, issuing a final declaration to the gods of the divine realm.

Or rather, it was a final declaration to the God of Destruction and the Goddess of Life. At this moment, all the other gods lay on the ground, barely alive, looking at the two primordial god-kings with hopeful eyes.

They are gods, they don't want to die, they have existed for so long, they don't want to end up like a dead dog.

Feeling the unsettling power of belief still rising within Huo Yuhao's body despite his disintegration, and the restless power of belief swirling around him, the God of Destruction sighed.

Without uttering a word, he simply looked at the Goddess of Life beside him. At this moment, the Goddess of Life also turned to look at the God of Destruction without saying a word, though her face was pale, she still wore that ever-warm and comforting smile.

"Farewell, God of Destruction, Goddess of Life." Huo Yuhao already knew their choice. Rather than continue to live as Huo Yuhao's prisoners, they would rather lose their existence and return to the origin of the world.

Huo Yuhao then stopped holding back, and the massive undead plane descended in one fell swoop, crushing everything in the divine realm—the sky, the earth, spiritual energy, living beings, and gods.

Like a bottomless pit, it continuously devours and captures all the resources of the divine realm, turning them into its own sustenance.

The same was true for those gods who had no power to resist. Apart from retaining a portion of their consciousness to continue participating in the reincarnation system of the plane of the dead, their divine positions, divine bodies, divine souls, and divine consciousness were completely devoured by the plane of the dead.

At this moment, Huo Yuhao also took his first step beyond this world, relying on the power of his own beliefs and his own world to become a true 'God King' who was not dependent on anyone. (End of this chapter)
