Chapter 714: 712. Twenty-First Stage (1)

The cauldron rumbled, and a ferocious and violent aura overflowed. It was as if an incomparably ferocious existence was being nurtured within it.

That ferocious feeling even made Chen Luoyang vaguely think of the Demon Venerable.

However, compared to the Demon Venerable’s bloodthirsty and violent aura, the treasure in the cauldron was more like a pure destructive force.

Chen Luoyang carefully pondered over the matter and gradually began to ponder over it.

Such violent and unrestrained destructive power was actually somewhat different from the Demon Lord’s own martial arts concept.

The power of a Demon Venerable was naturally powerful and domineering, and it was full of destructive power.

However, just like Chen Luoyang, who had comprehended the Fiend Supremacy’s concept and perfected what he had learned, the Fiend Supremacy’s martial path was meticulous and calm to the point of being callous under his domineering and fierce appearance.

It was completely different from wild and boorish.

However, the pagoda that was being refined seemed to be stable, but there was a kind of madness that was completely unrestrained and could only be released to its heart’s content.

It made Chen Luoyang wonder if this was something that belonged to the Demon Venerable.

However, as the refinement continued, the mysterious pagoda in the cauldron seemed to gradually calm down.

This made Chen Luoyang gradually understand.

As expected, as the refinement progressed, this pagoda became quieter and quieter. It became more and more violent and concealed, becoming more and more similar to the Demon Lord’s martial arts path.

However, the destructive power did not disappear. Instead, it was hidden even deeper. When it really erupted, it would only be even more terrifying.

What Chen Luoyang cared about was that it was an extremely pure destructive power that was difficult to describe with words. It was as if destroying the world wasn’t enough to describe it. It was more like the appearance of everything that was destroyed when the apocalypse arrived.

As he tasted it, he calmed down and refined the treasure with the Demon Lord’s body.

In the cauldron, in the darkness, a pagoda that originally looked extremely dilapidated and could even be said to be incomplete became more and more complete, gradually showing the signs of completion.

Chen Luoyang observed carefully and realized that the pagoda seemed to be divided into eight levels.

Chen Luoyang was deep in thought when he saw this.

He pushed all distracting thoughts out of his mind and focused all his attention on the pagoda, preparing for the final moment.

The Demon Venerable’s remains trembled again and stood up automatically.

When he stood up, not only the entire Dark Grotto-heaven, but even the entire Mortal World seemed to be shaken.

Not only were the living beings in the mortal world shocked, but the other Supremacies of the five realms outside the mortal world also focused their attention on the mortal world.

After the Qingwei Realm’s Two Elements Integration Ceremony, what kind of big commotion was the Mortal Realm going to make?

Everyone focused their attention to observe, but Red Dust’s strange movement only lasted for a moment. Then, it returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.

In the Dark Grotto-heaven, Chen Luoyang and the Demon Venerable’s remains pressed their palms on the cauldron.

The restless cauldron calmed down.

All sound and all movement seemed to disappear, or perhaps be absorbed into the cauldron.

In the next moment, a pitch-black eight-story pagoda slowly rose and flew out of the cauldron!

The pagoda was silent and did not exude any aura. Its appearance was ordinary and there was nothing special about it.

The dark grotto-heaven and even the mortal world outside did not change.

The Demon Venerable’s remains sat back down, his palm hanging down and returning to its original position, as if there had never been any movement.

However, when Chen Luoyang looked at the pitch-black pagoda, he felt as though his mind was about to be completely sucked into the pagoda.

The unknown fate after entering the tower made him shudder.

He stretched out a finger and touched the dark pagoda lightly. The flesh on his finger withered instantly, and his bones seemed to turn into ashes and shatter.

Chen Luoyang took a deep breath and retracted his hand. As he silently circulated his mystic technique, the bones, blood, flesh, and skin of his finger regenerated, but the speed was extremely slow.

He looked at the pagoda for a long time before waving his hand at it. The black pagoda returned to the cauldron.

And Chen Luoyang himself also jumped in.

The cauldron was silent, and it did not exude a ferocious and terrifying aura like before.

Time passed slowly.

Ying Qingqing, Xu Peng, and Wei Feng, who were inside the Dark Eden, felt uneasy.

They were in the dark grotto-heaven, so the three of them felt the violent tremor the most clearly.

Now, the flow of spiritual energy in the Dark Grotto-heaven suddenly began to change.

After a long time, everything suddenly returned to normal.

Ying Qingqing and the other two were bewildered, but they couldn’t go to the Central Main Hall to ask the legendary Red Dust Supreme for confirmation.

In the end, Xu Peng made a move.

He left his residence and came to the central hall. He bowed and said,”Autarch, please instruct me.”

The hall was silent.

Just as Xu Peng’s doubts grew stronger and stronger, two figures suddenly flashed beside him.

One of them was Wei Feng, who had been grounded in the Dark Grotto-heaven with him.

Xu Peng also knew the other person.

Han Mei.

His elder sister Han Zheng had studied under Xu Peng in the past, and Xu Peng appreciated and took care of that outstanding junior sister. Therefore, in the Sunset Mountains, in order to find Han Zheng, he had also taken care of Han Mei.

Now that she and Wei Feng had appeared here together, it was naturally not difficult for Xu Peng to connect them to the secret she was hiding.

Xu Peng had a hunch about Han Mei’s rapid increase in cultivation, and now it was confirmed.

Han Mei was a Netherworld God like him.

Although Wei Feng had never dealt with Han Mei before, he understood now.

Han Mei’s heart sank when she saw the two famous Nether Gods, White Bones and Plague.

She didn’t expect herself to be able to hide from the Demon Lord, but now that the day had finally arrived, could it be that she was going to execute the three Netherworld Gods together?

Just as the three of them were feeling uneasy, the door to the Central Main Hall suddenly opened and a person walked out. It was the Demon Venerable’s widely known and only successor, Demon Emperor Chen Luoyang.

Chen Luoyang nodded at Han Mei and the other two.”My master has ordered you to enter.”

The three of them took a deep breath and entered the hall.

As for Chen Luoyang, he stood at the back and closed the door.

In the hall, only Han Mei, Xu Peng, and Wei Feng were facing the majestic figure shrouded in darkness.

“From today onwards, the three of you will enter this pagoda to cultivate.” A deep and dignified voice sounded from above.

Han Mei and the other two were stunned. They looked at each other and saw a pagoda appear in the hall.

The eighth floor of the pagoda was completely black. It looked ordinary, but it made people feel a sense of fear from the bottom of their hearts that was difficult to suppress.

Among the three of them, Wei Feng, who had the lowest cultivation level, had already reached the Divine Transcendence Realm. He could calm his mind and eliminate the fear in his heart.

However, at this moment, Xu Peng, who had the strongest cultivation, actually felt that the fear in his heart could not be removed at all. His soul trembled at every moment.

It was like an instinct carved into his soul, fearing his natural enemy.

The three of them naturally did not dare to disobey the Supreme Martial Artist’s orders.

However, at this moment, their bodies seemed to be automatically resisting the command and refusing to approach the pagoda.

The figure on the throne did not urge them, but the deathly silence made the pressure on the three of them increase.

Finally, Xu Peng let out a long sigh.

His expression became calm as he took a step forward. Slowly but powerfully, he walked towards the dark eight-story pagoda and finally stepped into it.

Han Mei and Wei Feng watched as Xu Peng disappeared into the tower without a sound. It was as if he had been devoured and destroyed by the endless darkness.

This made them even more afraid.

It was as if he was constantly feeling the urge to rebel against the Autarch and be executed by the Autarch, rather than enter the black tower.

After a long period of silence, Han Mei boldly shouted in front of the legendary Supreme Martial Artist, as if to boost her courage,”So be it if you die!”

Like Xu Peng, she slowly walked towards the Black Tower.

As she moved, Wei Feng let out a breath of turbid air and took a step forward.

The Wei Clan had not been settled because of him, and they were still doing well in the mortal world. This meant that Wei Feng had nothing to worry about.

If he disobeyed the order now, his family might be implicated, not to mention whether he would die or not. Since that was the case, he might as well open his heart.

Thus, after Xu Peng, Han Mei and Wei Feng entered the Black Tower.

The three of them disappeared from this world together, leaving no trace behind.

The door to the Central Main Hall was pushed open, and Chen Luoyang walked in again. He stopped in front of the Black Tower and observed it carefully, sensing the profound changes within the tower.

After a while, he nodded slightly and waved his hand. The black tower flew up and came to the top of the Demon Lord’s body, hovering quietly.

Chen Luoyang himself sat opposite the Demon Venerable’s remains and began his cultivation.

Endless spiritual energy surged out of his body and then disappeared.

This cycle repeated and continued.

During this process, Chen Luoyang’s body began to be reborn from the inside out.

Whether it was his body or his soul, inside or outside, every inch of it was undergoing a transformation.

It became perfect and gradually reached the limit that a human could reach.

The 21st realm of the Martial Path, the realm of the utmost man.

Reaching this step was the first step for a martial artist to break through to the Martial God Realm.

With this foundation, he could continue to climb.

Chen Luoyang opened his eyes.

The outside world was no different from before.

The only difference was his personality.

After Ye Tianmo and Xu Ruotong, the third peak Martial Honored Realm was born in the last thousand years.

With the help of the Thousand Soul Pearl, Chen Luoyang successfully took that step and reached the 21st realm of the Martial Path, the realm of the utmost man.

Heaven-Connecting, Earth-Penetrating, and Man-Reaching. This was the complete path of a Martial Honor, and the Door of Man and God appeared in front of Chen Luoyang.

However, it was also an even more terrifying natural moat in front of him. It was even more difficult than the life and death challenge when a Martial Saint broke through to a Martial Honor.

For example, the Saha Realm had three divine monks who had been famous for many years. Since ancient times, countless experts had risen and fallen, but there was only one Heavenly Buddha.

Chen Luoyang was calm and composed.

The scarlet Torch Dragon’s remains appeared in front of him. He stretched out his hand and slapped it. The remains shattered into powder and were swallowed by the darkness in his palm.
