501. The Purge of the True Spirit Realm
In the True Spirit Realm, the war had commenced. The war of the Great Emperors! And the wars of the common folk! All unfolded simultaneously.
The North Wind Sect mobilized extensively, nearly emptying its nest to reclaim territories previously ceded. Naturally, the forces occupying these territories resisted, making large-scale battles inevitable. The mortal wars were bloody and brutal, but their outcomes often hinged on the victors among the Great Emperors.
Lin Fei and Heart Demon Martial God took action. Even without North Wind True Person, they were sweeping through the many powers of the True Spirit Realm.
Lin Fei witnessed for the first time the prowess of Heart Demon Martial God.
Three Deity Transformation powerhouses, their combat avatars collectively exceeding a hundred, descended like a deluge. Each avatar rivaled an ordinary Martial God!
Of course, Lin Fei was undeterred. His Saber World could envelop and suppress them all. However, he was entangled by two Martial Gods, unable to extricate himself.
At this moment, Heart Demon Martial God's illusions took effect. The Deity Transformation powerhouses fell into the illusionary realm. Their combat avatars became sitting ducks, effortlessly reaped by Heart Demon Martial God as he drew near.
The ensnared Deity Transformations, despite realizing they were trapped in illusions, were helpless to escape. Eventually, Heart Demon Martial God annihilated all combat avatars of several Deity Transformations, causing devastating losses to their forces. They no longer had the strength to resist the North Wind Sect.
As for the two Martial Gods besieging Lin Fei, they were no ordinary foes. Yet, Lin Fei unleashed his full might, deploying his Saber World and one thousand three hundred particle worlds. He launched a punch that seemed to collapse the very void itself.
Of course, it didn't literally collapse. Only True Monarchs, the pulverizers of the void, could cause such a collapse. But in this minor world, Lin Fei's punch didn't collapse the void, but it did cause tiny black fissures to appear.
Such a terrifying punch directly obliterated the two Martial Gods. Truly obliterated. Furthermore, as Lin Fei's Saber World descended, some of the blood and flesh particles of the two exploded Martial Gods attempted to flee.
However, they were swept up and suppressed by Lin Fei's Saber World, and not a single particle was spared. These two Martial Gods had fallen!
This was Lin Fei's first true slaying of Martial Gods, and he had eliminated two at once! The impact was staggering. The simultaneous fall of two Martial Gods sent shockwaves throughout the entire True Spirit Realm. These were two Great Emperors!
Previously, no matter how fiercely Deity Transformation powerhouses battled, they never perished. Even if all their combat avatars were depleted, they would survive. But Martial Gods were different.
Once a Martial God died, it was a true demise. Although the True Spirit Realm had seen thousands of years of warfare, and countless combat avatars had fallen, it was the first time for a Martial God to perish.
"Perhaps, a venture to the True Spirit Realm to obtain its origin might be a wise choice. Moreover, it's time to repay an old debt..." He continued, contemplating the favors owed since his weaker days, now dwindled in number. The one who had contacted him was among those to whom he owed a favor. Assisting this time would equate to repaying the debt.
Thus, the Extinction Martial God rose, stepping out in a single stride, vanishing from his abode.
...
In the Yin Yang Immortal Realm, within an immortal mansion, Meditation True Person was meditating on a cushion.
"Hum."
Suddenly, his communication stone vibrated intensely. Picking it up, Meditation True Person's expression darkened slightly after reading the message. Setting the stone aside, he pondered deeply.
"The True Spirit Realm? Heart Demon Martial God? And North Wind True Person, along with a Martial God Lin..."
Meditation True Person murmured to himself. The invitation he received was to join the fray in the True Spirit Realm for the struggle over its origin. The imminent collapse of the True Spirit Realm marked the prime time for this contention.
The Deity Transformation cultivator who invited him had laid plans in the True Spirit Realm for a millennium, now on the brink of reaping the rewards – how could they possibly relent? Hence, the call to the Meditation True Person.
"I'm just a step away from fully comprehending the secrets of space. Like flowers in a mirror or the moon reflected on water, seemingly just a layer away. But if I cannot pierce through this layer, the opportunity will forever elude me."
Meditation True Person continued softly. Just one layer separated him from becoming a True Monarch, but it was a barrier that a thousand years of arduous cultivation couldn't surmount. Perhaps, an abundance of the world's origin could provide the needed boost.
As for danger? Meditation True Person never feared any peril. Besides, with his current strength, venturing into the True Spirit Realm meant quelling any dissent! After all, he had over a thousand combat avatars. Though not as fearsome as Initial Evil True Person's tens of thousands, a thousand was more than enough to face any threat. Even Martial Gods would be hard-pressed against his forces! Thus, what Meditation True Person considered was not the danger, but the potential gains of the journey.
"The True Spirit Realm, home to Heart Demon Martial God. He is the Heart Demon Martial God, and I am Meditation. Let's see if his illusions can stir demons in my heart."
A flicker of intrigue passed through Meditation True Person's eyes! He prided himself on his unblemished spirit, devoid of any flaw. Facing Heart Demon Martial God might just be the test he needed!
With that, Meditation True Person stood up, transforming into a streak of light, vanishing without a trace.
