Chapter 202

Outside the world.

The Lord of the Azure Alliance wielded a stone longsword, and invisible power emanated from the stone longsword, blocking many attacks coming from all directions.

"You forced my hand, you insignificant insect."

In the distance, the Ancient Demon Tree roared in anger. If one were to observe carefully, they would notice a faint sword scar on the trunk of the Ancient Demon Tree. Clearly, in the recent clash with the Lord of the Azure Alliance, it had not gained any advantage and had even suffered some losses.

"What can you do even if I force you?"

The Lord of the Azure Alliance remained calm. The Ancient Demon Tree itself stood opposed to the Azure World, and reconciliation between the two was impossible.

"Since that's the case."

Countless black vines swayed around the Ancient Demon Tree, and faintly, the space for millions of miles in all directions began to change.Fịndd new updates at novelhall.com

"What's this?"

The Lord of the Azure Alliance's expression changed slightly. The surging demonic power had become almost tangible.

"World Sword!"

The Lord of the Azure Alliance tightened his grip on the longsword in his hand. With his strength, he could fight against an extraterrestrial evil deity for so long, relying on the World Sword nurtured by the Azure World for countless years.

Although the World Sword was called a "sword," its defensive capabilities were also extremely terrifying. At least since the invasion of the Ancient Demon Tree, the Lord of the Azure Alliance had not suffered any serious injuries under the protection of the World Sword.

Of course.

The power of the World Sword depended on the distance from the Azure World. The closer it was to the Azure World, the greater the power of the World Sword. Conversely, the farther away, the weaker it became.

"This is my world."

The demonic power that filled the space for millions of miles began to shrink rapidly, the space twisted, and in an instant, the Lord of the Azure Alliance was moved closer.

Immediately, the demonic power continued to intertwine and collide, forming a phantom world.

"What's this?"

The Lord of the Azure Alliance's expression became solemn. Such a method had never been used by the Ancient Demon Tree before. It could be foreseen that it should be one of the Ancient Demon Tree's hidden cards.

Boom!

The immense power of the demonic world began to crush down. The Lord of the Azure Alliance remained unchanged, holding the World Sword in his hand, using its power to defend himself.

In the distance.

The twelve vice lords of the Azure Alliance watched the battle between the Lord of the Azure Alliance and the Ancient Demon Tree from afar.

"Is the Lord being too confident, letting us stand by and not intervene, leaving him to deal with the extraterrestrial evil deity alone?"

One vice lord couldn't help but frown.

Indeed, the Lord of the Azure Alliance was the strongest. Under the protection of the World Sword, he could be said to be invincible, impervious to all methods.

But that was an extraterrestrial evil deity, a terrifying giant who had almost breached the Azure World with his own power.

Faced with such an existence, it was not excessive to be cautious no matter how careful one was. Giving up the advantage and fighting alone against the opponent, was it not a bit foolish?

Although the twelve vice lords combined could not cause any harm to the Ancient Demon Tree.

But at least they could restrain the opponent, and when necessary, they could exert considerable usefulness.

"The Lord naturally has his own considerations."

"If I'm not mistaken, the Lord is testing that extraterrestrial evil deity, right?"

Another vice lord pondered.

If the Lord of the Azure Alliance joined forces with the twelve vice lords, the extraterrestrial evil deity would probably not confront them, let alone go all out.

But now, with only the Lord alone, the extraterrestrial evil deity might think of severely injuring or even killing the Lord, and would exert all its strength.

And in the midst of the intense battle, it would be easy to see through the opponent's true strength.

"Not good."

"What method did that evil deity use to bring the Lord inside?"

At this moment, the twelve vice lords saw the Ancient Demon Tree surrounded by a black demonic power, and immediately after, the Lord of the Azure Alliance was enveloped inside.

"The Lord has the protection of the World Sword, so there shouldn't be any problems."

"Alas, the Lord is completely taking risks. What if something goes wrong? In front of that evil deity, my Azure World will have no resistance."

The twelve vice lords exchanged words, their tones revealing their worries.

Deepest part of the Black Mist Mountain Range.

At this moment, Lin Yuan was immersed in deep enlightenment.

The seven beast kings were guarding in all directions of the Black Mist Mountain Range, ensuring that Lin Yuan was not disturbed by any factors.

"If the master hears about it, there will be consequences."

The King of Giant Elephants thought for a moment and cautioned.

Although they were currently at a distance from Lin Yuan, in the eyes of the several beast kings, the master was invincible. If the master wanted to know, nothing in the entire Black Mist Mountain Range could escape his notice.

"Eighth rank."

While contemplating enlightenment, Lin Yuan was also considering the path to the eighth rank.

For an evolver like Lin Yuan, who had opened an inner world very early on, the biggest challenge in advancing to the eighth rank was the Heart Demon Tribulation.

The Heart Demon Tribulation had nothing to do with the physical body or the soul but targeted the mind and will.

Therefore—

During the resistance against the Heart Demon Tribulation, external forces were basically useless. To successfully overcome the Heart Demon Tribulation, one could only rely on oneself and one's indomitable will.

However.

The concept of indomitable will was very abstract.

The strength of one's will had no necessary connection to one's strength.

Of course, the stronger the evolver, the stronger their will would undoubtedly be.

But in the main world's human civilization, there were also natives on some barbaric planets with terrifyingly strong wills.

"According to the teacher, the so-called Heart Demon is a manifestation of endless grievances and other negative energies in the world."

"It is related to the fundamental rules of the world, and only when an evolver reaches a certain level will it appear," Lin Yuan thought to himself, recalling bits and pieces of what the Lord of the Red Kun Star said about "Heart Demons."

Normally, Heart Demons were illusory, even more so than the soul, so even soul-defense treasures couldn't resist them.

Once a seventh-rank pinnacle evolver attempted to advance to the eighth rank, the Heart Demon Tribulation would descend, with no possibility of turning back. Because Heart Demons were unstoppable and unavoidable. As long as you were within the world, there was no escape.

"But I have the Gate of the Myriad Realms. Can I try to advance to the eighth rank and face the Heart Demon Tribulation while traveling between worlds?"

"If I sense that something is wrong, and I find that I can't resist the Heart Demon Tribulation, then I'll flee and return to the main world."

"But can Heart Demons also travel between the Myriad Realms? Can they follow me back to the main world?"

Lin Yuan pondered a cunning method, using his own advantage to attempt to face the Heart Demon Tribulation in different worlds.

Outside the world.

The boundless demonic power formed by the Ancient Demon Tree suddenly tore open a crack in the demonic world.

Whoosh!

A figure rushed out of the crack, emitting bursts of maniacal laughter.

"Hahaha, extraterrestrial deity, I have the protection of the World Sword. It's impossible for you to kill me."

The Lord of the Azure Alliance controlled the World Sword and fled from the Ancient Demon Tree.

"Damn it."

The Ancient Demon Tree could only watch helplessly as the Lord of the Azure Alliance escaped.

Already suffering from an original source loss, now weakened further by expending an enormous amount of its own essence to create the "Demonic World," and also subjected to numerous sword strikes from the Lord of the Azure Alliance within the world, the Ancient Demon Tree was now extremely weak and had no strength to pursue the Lord of the Azure Alliance.

Or rather, even if the Ancient Demon Tree had the ability to pursue, it wouldn't, because it simply couldn't kill the Lord of the Azure Alliance.

Exhale.

The Lord of the Azure Alliance transformed into a stream of light and returned to the side of the twelve vice-lords.

At the same time, the Ancient Demon Tree slowly receded and disappeared from everyone's sight.

"Lord, are you okay?"

"Lord, are you hurt by that deity?"

The twelve vice-lords immediately asked with concern.

At this moment, the Lord of the Azure Alliance's aura was somewhat weakened, but his eyes were brighter than ever before.

This time, he had taken a risk and fought alone against the Ancient Demon Tree. During the fierce battle between the two, he finally grasped the Ancient Demon Tree's secrets.

"Weak."

"That extraterrestrial deity is currently in a weakened state."

The Lord of the Azure Alliance's heart raced. What he felt was not the aftermath of some hidden card being played but rather the deity's existing weakness.

"The opportunity for my Azure World is coming."

The Lord of the Azure Alliance looked towards the twelve vice-lords, his spirit stirred and his heart filled with determination.
