Chapter 1298 - 42: Lin Yuan and the Demon God
Chapter 1298: Chapter 42: Lin Yuan and the Demon God
Under the heavens, the Demon God was suspended high.
Within the hidden world, several Sect Masters and numerous high-ranking members became immediately tense.
Even though the hidden world had been arranged by various Eternal Lords, with many strategies to handle unexpected situations.
At this moment, everyone felt uncertain.
After all, it was the Demon God.
The outbreak of demonic disaster, and even the entrapment of several Eternal Lords, were deeply connected to it.
"Don’t worry."
"The great Master of Infinite has long left means; the Demon God cannot break in."
The Sect Master of the Eternal Infinite Sect forced himself to calm down and spoke to everyone.
Before the great change in heaven and earth, various Eternal Lords had seen a vast sea of future timelines, many of which included the Demon God arriving outside the hidden world to attack.
Arrangements had long been made for this.
If the Demon God could easily breach the hidden world and erase the arrangements left by the Eternal Lords, this Fang Yuan World would have already succumbed to endless Demonic Qi.
How could it have lasted until now?
"Right."
"The future Eternal Lords must have foreseen this scene."
"We just need to wait patiently; the Demon God will certainly leave after realizing it is helpless."
Other Sect Masters from the Eternal Sect also nodded and said.
At this moment, after the initial chaos, everyone quickly regained their composure.
The Demon God was undoubtedly terrifying.
But the Eternal Lords were not so easy to deal with either.
The clash between thirteenth-order time lives made it difficult to determine a winner in a short time.
The greatest possibility was to continue the standoff, waiting for variables to appear.
Lin Yuan stood nearby, not overly concerned.
He was well aware of the defense capabilities of this hidden place.
At least eleven defensive Eternal Treasures sheltered it, even the Demon God could not do anything in the short term.
The next moment.
The Demon God beneath the heavens moved.
He took two gentle steps, as black streams of air diffused between heaven and earth, sweeping in with a faint intent of extreme destruction and ruin, covering the hidden world.
"This move?"
Lin Yuan watched attentively.
When the great change in heaven and earth occurred, the Demon God relied on this move to smash several Eternal Sects’ efforts to expel Demonic Qi.
Those black streams appeared invisible and intangible, yet possessed strong corrosive and destructive ability, making even defensive Eternal Treasures retreat before them.
The ominous sound echoed.
A black vortex faintly formed outside the hidden world.
The black vortex slowly rotated, swallowing large amounts of black streams.
"The Eternal Treasure of the Master of Black Space?" Lin Yuan’s expression was thoughtful.
That black vortex was an Eternal Treasure, originating from the Eternal Lord, Master of Black Space.
The Master of Black Space, like the Master of Wushan, was a solitary Eternal Lord who did not establish an Eternal Sect force.
However, in the end, to help the beings of the Fang Yuan World resist the ’demonic’ disaster, he left numerous strategies in the hidden world; this continually devouring black vortex came from the Master of Black Space.
The black vortex, like an abyss, endlessly consumed the black streams.
And protected by the black vortex, the hidden world naturally remained unmoved.
If the black vortex could be used for attack, several Eternal Sects would not have lost so decisively in front of the Demon God during the great change in heaven and earth.
Under the heavens, the Demon God looked down with empty eyes, feeling no disturbance towards the black vortex continually devouring black streams.
The humming sounded—
Only to see the Demon God’s aura deepen, and the horn on his forehead suddenly condensed into an extremely heavy black dot, at the moment of condensation, time and space in all directions began to crumble and annihilate.
"This move?"
Within the hidden world, several Sect Masters of the Eternal Sect showed slight unease.
Among the arrangements left by various Eternal Lords, there were means to block this move from the Demon God.
But at present, this Demon God first employed black streams, then profound black dots, making the Sect Masters feel uneasy.
With a thud!
The black dot from the horn of the Demon God transformed into a deep black light, piercing towards the hidden world.
Outside the hidden world, a blue barrier rose immediately, vast and mighty, blocking the deep black light.
...
Under the heavens.
The Demon God’s expression remained indifferent as the massive black tail behind him swung towards the hidden world.
Though it was a simple swing, without any rules or mysteries, space-time itself shattered, for under absolute power, any rules of the great path could easily be broken.
Boom!
The whole hidden world slightly trembled under the Demon God’s massive black tail, but soon recovered.
The hidden world itself was a defensive Eternal Treasure, capable of greatly resisting external attacks, especially since this defensive treasure was designed specifically against the Demon God.
...
First were the black streams.
Then the black light from the horn.
Finally was the swing of the massive tail.
The Demon God then launched dozens of attacks.
Yet all were blocked by the defensive arrangements laid by various Eternal Lords within the hidden world.
Upon witnessing this scene, numerous high-ranking members of the Eternal Sect heavily sighed in relief, it seems the Eternal Lords were truly a step ahead, for no matter how powerful the Demon God might be, he was still tightly blocked by the arrangements of the Eternal Lords.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom Boom Boom!!
The relentless attacks of the Demon God, although unable to shake the hidden realm for the moment, caused aftershocks to spread in all directions.
...
"Such power?"
In a Supreme Saint Sect, the Sect Master and several Supreme Elders watched the center of the realm in shock.
Even from an infinite distance away, they could clearly feel the terrifying force spreading.
"It’s the Demon God, the Demon God is making a move."
The Sect Master of the Supreme Saint Sect stated with certainty.
They didn’t have the Eternal Treasure to lock onto the Demon God’s aura, but with the current explosion of power, there was basically no other possibility besides the Demon God.
"Let’s hope the Eternal Sect can withstand it."
The Sect Master of the Supreme Saint Sect silently thought, not long ago, due to the appearance of Lord Galaxy, who swept through various ’demons’, their Supreme Saint Sect only barely caught a few breaths.
"Lord Galaxy won’t be harmed, will he?"
The Sect Master’s eyes revealed worry.
With the Demon God’s emergence, it’s estimated that before long, the giant evil of this realm would still have to rely on Lord Galaxy.
As for those Eternal Sect forces? It would be extremely fortunate if they don’t command saints and fighters from their Holy Sect and Supreme Saint Sect.
...
"Demon God..."
On Qingyun Sacred Mountain, the Sect Master of the Holy Sect sensed the terrifying waves at the center of the realm from afar.
"Senior Galaxy shouldn’t have gone to the center of the realm, now that the Demon God is acting, who knows if those few Eternal Sects can withstand it."
The Sect Master sighed.
Lin Yuan had sheltered Qingyun Saint Sect for thousands of years, and the Sect Master had long regarded Lin Yuan as an ancestor.
Now the situation at the center of the realm, due to the Demon God’s actions, had become extremely dangerous, if anything perilous happened to Lin Yuan, the consequences would be so severe the Sect Master didn’t dare to think about it.
...
The arrival and continuous action of the Demon God caused a stir among the Holy Sect and Supreme Saint Sect scattered throughout the realm.
But these forces could only pray silently in their hearts, praying that the Eternal Sect can persevere and that the Demon God returns to slumber quickly.
As for anything more?
There was naturally nothing more to be done.
With the foundation of the Holy Sect and Supreme Saint Sect, even if they deployed all their forces, they probably couldn’t approach the center of the realm, being suppressed by the endless Demonic Qi along the way.
...
Hidden Realm.
The several Sect Masters of the Eternal Sect and many high-ranking members were initially quite calm.
So far, all of the Demon God’s attack methods had been within the predictions of the various Eternal Lords.
And the deployment of the Hidden Realm also confirmed this, all the attacks of the Demon God had been blocked.
But as time passed.
The expressions of the Sect Masters began to change.
Because the Demon God beneath the sky showed no signs of stopping.
Continuously launching attacks on the Hidden Realm.
The Sect Masters were aware of their own situation.
Although every strike from the Demon God was blocked.
The Hidden Realm itself seemed invulnerable.
But every time a strike from the Demon God was blocked, the consumption for the several Eternal Sects was terrifying.
Whether it was the black hole vortex or the azure barrier, they required enormous resources to function.
According to the current intensity of the Demon God’s attacks, just a few million years or even tens of millions of years would exhaust the several Eternal Sects.
By then, even with the many Eternal Treasures, there wouldn’t be enough resources to activate them.
"How is this possible?"
"The great Eternal Lord’s predicted Demon God vision didn’t include such prolonged attacks!"
"Right, the longest attack duration was days, now it’s been several months, why is the Demon God still attacking?"
The Sect Masters were starting to panic.
Although the day of exhausting their foundation millions and tens of millions of years from now was still far off.
If the Demon God truly continued to attack relentlessly, the breach of the Hidden Realm would just be a matter of time.
Lin Yuan stood quietly by, listening to the Sect Masters’ hushed discussions.
The Sect Masters did not avoid discussing such things with Lin Yuan present, so Lin Yuan understood the current situation.
"Many of the Eternal Lords didn’t foresee the future timeline of the Demon God’s continuous attacks?"
Lin Yuan’s expression showed contemplation, "Did my presence lead to changes in the future timeline?"
Since Lin Yuan had descended over ten thousand years ago, the several Eternal Lords had long since been unable to interfere with the external realm, and observing the future timeline was based on before the great changes in the realm.
Hence, they couldn’t see traces of Lin Yuan’s existence.
They were even less able to observe the timeline where Lin Yuan cleared countless demons.
Clearing countless demons caused the Demon God to be enraged, abandoning its instinct to suppress the source world, attacking the Hidden Realm with full force.
"Lord Galaxy, deep within the Hidden Realm, there is a transmission array connecting the edges of the realm, you should leave first."
The Sect Master of the Eternal Infinite Sect turned and spoke to Lin Yuan.
In many timelines seen by the Eternal Lords, there existed a scene of the Hidden Realm being breached.
However, it was far in the distant future.
Thus, based on this situation, some measures were taken.
A transmission array was established to evacuate the sect’s elites before the Hidden Realm was breached.
"Leave?"
Lin Yuan looked at the Demon God standing beneath the sky outside, pondered for a moment, and said, "Actually, it’s not like there’s no way to deal with the Demon God."
