Creating Heavenly Laws

Chapter 705

Hidden World.

Several sect masters and many high-level sect members looked at Lin Yuan in surprise.

A way to deal with the Demon God?

The Demon God possessed the combat strength of a rank thirteen Eternal Lord.

Only Eternal Lords of the same rank could possibly stand against a Demon God.

Even though the hidden world was currently withstanding the Demon God’s relentless attacks—

At its core, it was still relying on the contingency arrangements left behind by the Eternal Lords.

In essence, it was still a confrontation between the Eternal Lords and the Demon God.

And this kind of defense wasn’t truly resistance.

It was only delaying the inevitable by relying on those setups.

Once the resources required to sustain the activation of those Eternal Treasures were exhausted—

The consequences were self-evident.

Yet Lin Yuan was now saying he had another method to deal with the Demon God?

"Lord Milky Way, please tell us—what do you need us to do?"

The sect masters only hesitated for a brief moment before choosing to trust Lin Yuan.

Over the past ten thousand years, Lin Yuan’s countless actions had earned their full confidence.

"Give me all the foundational resources you’re using to power the Eternal Treasures," Lin Yuan said.

At this moment, the infinite particle world he was creating inside himself was 99% complete.

But the final 1% was a bottleneck that couldn’t be easily overcome in a short time.

After all, all the somewhat powerful “demons” in this Source World had already been slain by Lin Yuan.

Which was the key reason for the Demon God’s furious descent.

As for absorbing and refining demonic energy?

Too inefficient.

And now that the Demon God had descended—

With a single thought, it controlled all vast demonic energy. Lin Yuan couldn’t even absorb it if he tried.

And now, trapped inside the hidden world, with the Demon God right outside—

Even the worst-case scenario of taking hundreds or thousands of years to complete the final 1% seemed unlikely.

Given his strength, if he dared step outside the hidden world—

He would instantly become the Demon God’s prime target.

There’d be no time left to hunt down any more “demons.”

After considering everything...

Lin Yuan’s only remaining hope to fully complete the infinite particle world within himself…

Was to rely on the stockpiled resources from the great Eternal Sects.

Rather than waste those resources resisting the Demon God’s unending assault—

It would be better to give them all to Lin Yuan and let him finish the particle world.

Once the particle world was perfected, Lin Yuan’s power would skyrocket—he’d have a real chance to confront the Demon God head-on.

And perhaps prevent the hidden world from being destroyed.

This was the most beneficial plan Lin Yuan could think of—for both himself and the Eternal Sects.

Based on the Demon God’s current attacks, Lin Yuan had strong confidence that, once the particle world was complete, he could hold his own in a direct fight.

"Lord Milky Way wants all the foundational resources?" The sect master of the Eternal Immeasurable Sect was stunned.

The other sect masters also looked extremely serious.

These resources were their only hope of resisting the Demon God.

Even if they’d be exhausted in a million or ten million years, they could at least buy the Eternal Sects enough time to evacuate their elite members.

And now to give them all to Lin Yuan?

If Lin Yuan failed to hold off the Demon God, the hidden world would fall in an instant.

"That's right."

Lin Yuan nodded.

In truth, to finish the last 1% of the progress, there were other ways besides relying on the Eternal Sects’ resources.

For example, he could transport resources via the Gate of Myriad Realms—

Enough to support him from start to finish in constructing the infinite particle world.

But the cost was astronomical, and Lin Yuan couldn’t afford it.

Just the final 1%?

He could grit his teeth and bear it.

But if he could avoid using boundary-breaking source energy, he would.

"Lord Milky Way… are you confident?"

The Eternal Immeasurable Sect master asked cautiously.

"There shouldn’t be a problem."

Lin Yuan glanced at the Demon God outside.

Once his infinite particle world was fully complete, his strength would likely be enough to withstand the Demon God.

The other sect masters exchanged glances.

This hidden world had been constructed by the Eternal Lords.

Even with their means, they couldn’t withstand the Demon God’s assault for more than a few million years.

And Lin Yuan was saying it’d be no problem?

"In that case, these six Eternal Sources are yours, Lord Milky Way."

The sect master of the Eternal Immeasurable Sect’s expression shifted repeatedly before he finally spoke with solemn resolve.

The other sect masters hesitated to speak but ultimately said nothing.

For the Eternal Sects, whether they lasted millions of years or a mere decade made little difference at this point.

Rather than wait and watch the hidden world be trampled underfoot by the Demon God—

It was better to place their hopes on Lin Yuan.

After all, the current situation had already gone beyond anything foreseen before the great upheaval.

None of the Eternal Lords had glimpsed a future timeline that included what was happening now.

So the sect masters were also lost, unsure how to proceed.

Whoosh—

A strange fluctuation rippled through the hidden world.

Then, six blazing Eternal Sources, shining like suns, emerged from its deepest point.

These were the six Eternal Sources that had powered the many defensive Eternal Treasures, holding back the Demon God’s repeated assaults.

Lin Yuan looked at the six sources, each emanating vast energy.

Eternal Sources were condensed from the power of Eternal Lords themselves, capable of fully unleashing the power of Eternal Treasures.

"I only need five."

Lin Yuan didn’t hold back. With every attack from the Demon God, the energy within the Eternal Sources decreased.

By Lin Yuan’s estimate, four would be enough to complete the final 1%.

The fifth was insurance—just to be absolutely certain.

"Alright."

The Eternal Immeasurable Sect master nodded.

Now that they had chosen to fully support Lin Yuan, even giving him all six Eternal Sources wouldn’t make him frown.

Buzz—

With a flick of Lin Yuan’s right hand, five of the six floating Eternal Sources vanished silently—

Absorbed directly into his body.

In that instant—

The five Eternal Sources provided oceanic energy, allowing the remaining particles within Lin Yuan to rapidly evolve into new worlds.

Rumble—

And with the disappearance of the five Eternal Sources...

Outside the hidden world.

The power of several Eternal Treasures defending against the Demon God’s attacks suddenly plummeted.

Even though one Eternal Source remained to supply energy, it couldn’t match the output of six.

"This is bad."

The Eternal Immeasurable Sect master’s expression changed drastically.

He hadn’t expected this.

He had assumed six Eternal Sources could support the hidden world for millions of years.

A single Eternal Source alone should still last hundreds of thousands of years.

But without the simultaneous supply from all six, one source alone could no longer power so many Eternal Treasures.

"Hmm?"

Lin Yuan also noticed the change in the Eternal Treasures outside.

"No need to worry."

He glanced at the sect masters.

Since he had taken five Eternal Sources, he wouldn’t just stand by.

Even though the last 1% of his particle world was still forming rapidly, it wouldn’t stop him from acting.

"I’ll take it from here."

Lin Yuan stepped forward and disappeared from sight.

Before the sect masters and high-level members could even react—

A towering figure appeared in the outer heavens.

Lin Yuan, calm and composed, now stood beside the hidden world. Compared to his height, the entire hidden world only reached his ankle.

An invisible field spread from him, forming layers of barriers that actively intercepted the Demon God’s attacks.

"What?!"

"Lord Milky Way stepped out?"

The Eternal Immeasurable Sect master and the others were stunned.

Lin Yuan had said he had a method to deal with the Demon God—and then asked for the Eternal Sources.

They had assumed he’d found some immensely powerful Eternal Treasure—

And needed the sources to activate it.

That was why they had placed their hope in him.

If he truly had some ultimate Eternal Treasure, then with enough Eternal Sources, there might be a slim chance of resisting the Demon God.

But now?

Lin Yuan had stepped out himself to face the Demon God?

Even though Lin Yuan now towered into the sky, with a boundless and profound aura, the enemy was still a Demon God, one equal to a rank thirteen Eternal Lord.

"Chi chi chi~~" Black currents were the first to fall upon the barrier Lin Yuan had formed.

This type of attack relied on the demonic energy’s corrosive power—pure instinct from the Demon God.

These black currents were so corrosive that even defensive Eternal Treasures couldn’t withstand them for long, and had to be countered with the Lord of Black Void’s vortex.

Thus—

The cosmic barrier Lin Yuan had formed was soon riddled with holes, rapidly eaten away by the black currents.

But Lin Yuan’s internal universe had a deep foundation. Every time a hole was burned into the barrier, it was instantly repaired.

This led to a temporary equilibrium between the black currents and Lin Yuan’s cosmic barrier.

Beneath the sky, the Demon God—who had been relentlessly venting its rage—suddenly paused, its hollow gaze turning to Lin Yuan.

Since the demonic catastrophe began, all Eternal Lords had been trapped. In this world, the Demon God reigned supreme. Even the Eternal Lords’ hidden world was nothing more than a tough turtle shell—good only for enduring attacks.

But now, the colossal figure before it—

Was the first lifeform to withstand its strike without retreating.

"What?"

"Lord Milky Way blocked it?"

Inside the hidden world, the sect masters were stunned.

They could tell Lin Yuan had blocked the black currents with no aid from Eternal Treasures.

The cosmic barrier, riddled with holes soon after contact—

Clearly wasn’t made from Eternal Treasures. After all, such treasures could at least last a while against the black currents.

To corrode so quickly?

It had to be Lin Yuan’s own technique.

And the way those holes were rapidly restored—

Showed that he was truly enduring the black currents head-on.

"Lord Milky Way… can really block a Demon God’s strike?"

All the powerhouses in the hidden world were in disbelief.

The Demon God was equal to a rank thirteen Eternal Lord.

If Lin Yuan could take a hit from it—didn’t that mean he could withstand a strike from an Eternal Lord?

He wasn’t an Eternal Lord—

But could resist an Eternal Lord’s full-power strike?

How was that possible?

"The power is immense… I need to go all out just to hold it back." Lin Yuan looked at his rapidly decaying and regenerating barrier with a grave expression.

Ever since regaining his peak strength, he hadn’t gone all out—except once, during the trial set up by the Lord of Wushan, where he had unleashed a full-powered slash of Chaos Tai Chi.

But that was just a single strike—not his full strength.

Now, Lin Yuan was truly going all out—even revealing his true form.

And compared to back in the trial space, his current strength was countless times greater.

"So this is the Demon God’s power…" Lin Yuan stared at it, intending to stall for time.

The five Eternal Sources were being continuously refined. With every moment, more particle worlds were being created—his power soaring rapidly. His plan was to stall until the particle world was fully complete.

Only then would his strength reach its peak, giving him the confidence to battle the Demon God.

As for now—

Just from that earlier attack, Lin Yuan already knew he wasn’t a match for it.

Of course, not being a match didn’t mean he couldn’t hold out. With his current defensive capabilities, even the Demon God would have a hard time breaking through in a short period.

Boom!

The Demon God stared at Lin Yuan for a moment. Then the horn on its forehead condensed another deep black dot—

And fired it at him.

"Hm?" Lin Yuan frowned.

He wanted to stall until the particle world was finished.

But the Demon God wasn’t a normal lifeform—it was pure instinct, and wouldn’t waste time talking.

That brief pause just now was merely due to surprise.

"Chi—"

The black dot pierced through the cosmic barrier and struck Lin Yuan directly.

Unlike the corrosive black currents, this was a pure offensive attack.

The barrier didn’t even have time to regenerate before it was penetrated.

Lin Yuan staggered back several steps, a wound appearing on his chest—but it was healing rapidly.

Divine body technique—Blood Rebirth.

This life-saving technique hadn’t been used in a long time.

"Good thing I asked for one extra Eternal Source," Lin Yuan thought.

That strike nearly tore his body apart, forcing him to use his regeneration technique.

But with the Eternal Source, he could keep regenerating endlessly. Unless his body was wiped out in an instant—he couldn’t die.

Lin Yuan looked at the Demon God again.

Boom!

The Demon God’s massive black tail suddenly trembled—like the sky itself was collapsing—sweeping toward Lin Yuan.

Earlier, that tail’s power had shaken the entire hidden world.

Bang! Endless power struck Lin Yuan’s body.

He withdrew the cosmic barrier and focused entirely on defense. Even so, he could feel the impact—cracks appeared on the surface of every particle world within him.

But with Blood Rebirth active, all the cracks vanished in moments.

"Lord Milky Way…"

In the hidden world, everyone was shaken to their core.

If taking one hit could be considered luck—

Then taking three of the Demon God’s full-powered attacks—

And blocking them all—

Even if Lin Yuan appeared somewhat battered, the shock in the hearts of the sect masters was like a storm.

"Chi chi chi—"

"Boom boom boom!!"

"Bang bang bang!!!"

Next, the Demon God began a new wave of attacks—first the black currents, then the black dots, and finally the giant tail—all targeting Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan resisted as best as he could, deflecting and redirecting, completely focused on defense—enduring each strike.

As the Demon God attacked, it looked down at Lin Yuan, hollow eyes showing a hint of interest.

Compared to the turtle-shell-like hidden world, Lin Yuan was far more intriguing.

At least, when he took its blows, there were visible reactions—wounds and recovery.

Time passed.

No one knew how long it had been.

But just as the Demon God’s giant tail once again lashed toward Lin Yuan—

A massive hand suddenly grabbed the tail mid-swing.

At the same time, Lin Yuan, who had been defending the entire time, slowly stood upright.

"Had enough?"

Lin Yuan’s massive hand tightened around the tail, easily suppressing its furious struggle. His entire aura had changed—like countless infinite particle worlds were resonating together. Then, with a powerful pull...

He yanked the tail back hard.

"My turn."
