I Am the Fated Villain - Chapter 237
Chapter 237: The unparalleled devil revives, I have been waiting for you for a long time, human ancestor
This terrifying spectacle left both Yue Mingkong and Jiang Yang in shock.
“What is this?”
“What in the world is concealed within the Netherland Heavenly Pond…”
Yue Mingkong’s usually composed demeanor grew solemn. As someone from the upper realm and the future ruler of the vast Peerless Immortal Dynasty, with a fiancé of esteemed status, she couldn’t help but feel palpitations, tremors, and a chilling sensation. This presence was beyond anything that should exist in the lower realm. Even in the upper realm, it would instill fear in countless ancient Dao sects. Yet, amidst the dread, she felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
“How is this possible? When did the Netherland Heavenly Pond give birth to such a thing…”
Jiang Yang’s expression underwent a drastic change, disbelief evident in his features.
How could such a presence exist amidst the array of backhands he had arranged? Its aura was maddening, chilling, and trembling, capable of freezing even the soul. This exceeded Jiang Yang’s comprehension, despite his numerous reincarnations. His expression darkened considerably.
The entire Heavenly Pond had transitioned from its previous immortal aura to a demonic one, obscuring the scene within. Jiang Yang couldn’t help but worry about his Nirvana Green Lotus. Could there be an accident? And what was that thing?
He observed the monstrous gray fog, shrouding the sky and sun, surging as if an ancient, invisible, and indescribable terrifying demon was being revived. It seemed as though someone had intruded upon his domain, awakening from eternal slumber, consuming the world and plunging it into darkness.
Not only within the Netherland Heavenly Pond, but even in the distant reaches of the Heavenly Domain, scenes of terror and horror unfolded, terrifying countless cultivators and creatures. Powerful beings quivered under its aura, their souls freezing with dread.
In the distant sky, demons surged forth, engulfing the heavens. The world plunged into instant darkness, devoid of light, with the sun and moon rendered dim.
“It can’t be that the Immortal fell into the hands of this unknown creature…” Zhao Yi’s voice quivered, her soul shaken to its core. Despite her status in the quasi-sacred realm and her former status as a heavenly goddess, she now felt as insignificant as an ant, consumed by fear.
Even wielding the weapon provided by Jiang Yang, she struggled to find any sense of security.
“Attack!”
A headless horseman charged forth from the cliff, bathed in bloody light, launching a sudden assault on Jiang Yang.
“By my lord’s command!” Simultaneously, a bloody figure surged from the deep valley, akin to a sea of corpses and blood rushing towards Jiang Yang.
“Aren’t these the two creatures I subdued before?” Jiang Yang’s expression shifted drastically once more. Their sudden appearance was both shocking and unbelievable.
He knew these two creatures too well. He had subdued and restrained them before, and they possessed the power of the Great Sacred Realm, unmatched within the entire Heavenly Star Realm. Yet now, they sought to kill him? Despite many surrounding patterns being under his control?
This left Jiang Yang bewildered. What had transpired? However, his long history of facing major events enabled him to respond swiftly. He signaled Zhao Yi to intercept the changing Yaoyao.
Though small, that cauldron was a formidable sacred weapon. It should suffice to contend with the current Yaoyao, empowered by her quasi-sacred realm strength.
Boom!
Jiang Yang, enveloped in the stream of laws and rules, activated the Immortal Lun Seal, which hovered above his head as he ventured deeper into the Heavenly Pond to investigate.
The onslaught from the two great sacred realms caused the terrain to quake violently. Countless strands of avenues radiated light, threatening to engulf everything. Jiang Yang utilized these avenues to fend off the creatures’ attacks. However, he refrained from employing the seal of reincarnation, fearing it might shatter prematurely, thus nullifying his efforts.
Meanwhile, the clash between Yaoyao and Zhao Yi erupted. Despite Yaoyao’s peculiar state, her power hadn’t surpassed that of the Great Sacred Realm. Zhao Yi wielded the Great Sacred weapon, managing to hold her ground momentarily, albeit with a visibly pale complexion, hinting at her limited endurance.
Observing the tumultuous scene, Yue Mingkong materialized high above, her presence exuding a formidable aura. Mist enveloped her, and she brandished a powerful forbidden weapon between her sleeves.
“It’s too risky to enter the Netherland Heavenly Pond now,” she warned. “Let’s wait until the situation clarifies.”
Yue Mingkong signaled her confidants and the golden armored warriors behind her to retreat with a wave of her hand. The sudden appearance of the monstrous gray fog set her heart pounding, particularly the pair of indifferent eyes devoid of any emotion, as if they regarded all living beings as insignificant ants to be easily eradicated.
Frowning, Yue Mingkong couldn’t shake the feeling that the unfathomable presence was warning her not to approach. This only added to her confusion, compounded by the lingering sense of familiarity she had experienced moments before. It didn’t seem like the manifestation of any deity known to humanity. Could it be an entity she was acquainted with?
For a while, Yue Mingkong found herself grappling with uncertainty, unsure if she was merely overthinking the situation.
Boom! At that moment, the gray fog enveloping the sky grew more turbulent, its aura seeming to engulf the entire expanse above.
A colossal hand descended from within, shrouded in a vast gray mist akin to a world-annihilating millstone, interwoven with the laws of the Great Dao, and descended effortlessly.
Zhao Yi, locked in combat with Yaoyao, was caught off guard. Before she could react, the palm descended upon her like an inverted heaven and earth.
Boom!
The void ruptured! The great sacred weapon she had invoked to counter the attack displayed clear cracks, its runes dimming.
“Jiang Yang, help me!” Her expression turned to one of horror and despair, her complexion pale.
Before she could utter another word, the palm descended upon her, her body exploding upon impact.
“Puff…” In the next moment, her form was obliterated by the force of the blow.
Observing this, Jiang Yang, though displeased, realized the gravity of the situation. With a wave of his sleeves, a shimmering cloud of light enveloped Zhao Yi’s remnant soul, saving her from certain death.
At this juncture, losing Zhao Yi would undoubtedly distract and exhaust him, given her status as a quasi-sacred realm cultivator.
After pulverizing Zhao Yi’s form, the colossal hand continued its descent, aiming for Yaoyao below as if to snatch her up.
Yaoyao’s current state was peculiar; her countenance icy, resembling that of a distant goddess. While she sensed the looming danger, she struggled to fully harness her power. Under its influence, her demeanor turned profoundly aloof.
Even as the palm descended, her expression remained unchanged, her resolve to confront it unwavering.
Yet, with a resounding crash, her petite frame was sent hurtling into the Heavenly Pond, plunging into its depths with a heavy thud.
“Yaoyao…”
The silver-haired granny was fraught with worry, torn between rushing to her aid and fear of the looming deity in the sky, immobilized by dread.
To her surprise, the formidable entity paid her no heed.
The silver-haired granny couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, albeit with a bitter smile. Being regarded as less than even ants left her torn between gratitude and bewilderment.
For a time, the Netherland Heavenly Pond once again fell into a deathly silence. Apart from the lingering gray fog veiling the high heavens, there was no other presence. However, the palpable dread of this place continued to spread throughout the heavenly domain, hinting at the birth of an even more formidable power from its deepest recesses.
Yue Mingkong’s expression darkened further as she led her retinue to the outermost periphery of the Netherland Heavenly Pond, refraining from advancing recklessly. She couldn’t shake the feeling of cold eyes watching her from within the gray fog, warning her against any hasty actions.
“What’s happening? Why is the sky collapsing, and the entrance vanished?”
The sudden upheaval in the Netherland Heavenly Pond left all the cultivators outside dumbfounded. Faces turned ashen as they observed from afar, unable to discern even a trace of vitality. Fear gripped them tightly as the vast expanse of gray fog swallowed everything in sight.
The sky and earth cracked and collapsed, peeling away like shards of a shattered mirror. Fire erupted, reaching towards the heavens, consuming everything in its path like a blazing meteorite hurtling downwards.
The once-unbroken expanse of sky now resembled a fragmented mosaic, with darkness encroaching from all sides, engulfing the landscape in an eerie void. Within this void lay a sea of nothingness, roiling with chaotic turbulence and rumored to be home to ancient, ferocious beasts.
Even the quasi-supreme beings had to tread carefully when navigating this treacherous terrain, as terrifying laws lurked in the shadows, ready to crush any who dared to trespass.
The events unfolding at the Netherland Heavenly Pond sent shockwaves through the ranks of the most powerful cultivators from across the heavenly domain. Wide-eyed and horrified, they witnessed the rupture of the heavens and the proliferation of arcane laws, their divine light scorching everything in its path like a blazing inferno.
“Could it be that some celestial demon has been unleashed?”
“The heavens and earth themselves have been rent asunder… No wonder even an immortal from the upper realm met his demise within…”
With pale faces, many of these formidable beings turned their gaze away from the unfolding catastrophe, sensing that this day marked a calamity for the entire heavenly domain.
If ordinary cultivators were to come into contact with the wind blowing from there, they would likely perish instantly. Furthermore, if various calamities from beyond the realm were to descend, the entire heavenly star realm would suffer.
Such thoughts plunged countless cultivators and living beings into despair.
Meanwhile, in the deepest recesses of the Netherland Heavenly Pond, amidst the thick chaotic mist, a green lotus infused with chaotic energy took root, emanating a dense worldly aura.
“It seems that things haven’t spiraled completely out of control…”
Jiang Yang, who had invoked the power of the Immortal Lun Seal to withstand the onslaught, had finally reached this point. The figure shrouded in the monstrous gray mist above did not immediately strike at him, which provided him with some relief.
Though he was somewhat puzzled by the situation, he could no longer dwell on it. His priority now was to merge with the Nirvana Green Lotus and harness the power of the Dao fruit to confront the enigmatic presence.
The events of the day had exceeded his wildest imagination. Jiang Yang even felt a surge of confidence that, had Gu Changge dared to approach the Netherland Heavenly Pond, it would have spelled his demise. However, he had not anticipated encountering such a bizarre entity here.
Its true form remained concealed from him.
It seemed akin to a dao law body, yet possessed a vast divine might that surpassed any ordinary dao body. Jiang Yang suspected it might be an ancient god or true devil that had slumbered here unbeknownst to him.
Nevertheless, as long as the Nirvana Green Lotus remained intact, all was well.
“Jiang Yang, what’s our next move?” Zhao Yi, having been saved by Jiang Yang’s timely intervention and now standing beside him with a newly formed body, couldn’t help but voice her concern.
“Help me maintain the protective barrier here at all costs. No one is to be allowed entry,” Jiang Yang’s expression turned solemn, commanding with an unwavering authority that brooked no argument.
This was precisely why he had rescued Zhao Yi—to safeguard this place from intrusion at any cost. If someone were to breach the defenses, all could be lost.
Though Jiang Yang had once been confident in the array patterns he’d set up, the unexpected anomaly now filled him with concern. Since the disturbance had arisen…
Upon hearing his instructions, Zhao Yi’s expression grew resolute. “Understood.”
At that moment, Jiang Yang furrowed his brow, deep in thought. After careful consideration, he decided to entrust Zhao Yi with the Immortal Lun Seal, instructing her on how to activate it and awaken the artifact spirit within. With her quasi-sacred realm strength, she could barely manage to wield it.
The Immortal Lun Seal held a unique quality: its artifact spirit wasn’t naturally born but refined with the true soul of a living being during its initial creation. This was one of Jiang Yang’s strategic considerations for his contingency plan. With the seal now in Zhao Yi’s possession, she would likely feel a bit more secure.
Soon, Jiang Yang regained his composure, his demeanor calm as he approached the lotus body of the Nirvana Green Lotus. Chaotic mist billowed around him, obscuring his surroundings.
The fusion process appeared relatively straightforward to him, requiring only a bit more time. Once fully fused, the Nirvana Green Lotus Body would unleash a trace of power capable of uniting all worlds, granting Jiang Yang formidable strength. With it, he could easily subdue and eliminate the mysterious woman who had pursued him outside.
However, just as Jiang Yang stepped into the lotus body, his demeanor abruptly shifted.
“What…?” His eyes widened in disbelief, his expression contorting with shock. A cold shiver ran down his spine, and his soul quivered.
“How is this possible…?” Jiang Yang’s voice trembled for the first time, his usual calm facade shattered. It was evident that he no longer felt in control, unlike before.
He simply couldn’t believe that the figure he thought had already fallen would appear here. And from the looks of it, it seemed as if it had been waiting for him?
At that moment, Jiang Yang’s mind was in turmoil, his thoughts ringing like a bell that couldn’t be silenced. He struggled to speak, his voice far from calm. “You… How did you get here?”
Gu Changge sat atop the Nirvana Green Lotus, shrouded in a haze of blurred fog, the ominous demonic aura swirling around him, filling the void. He regarded Jiang Yang with a gaze filled with interest. “Why wouldn’t I be here? I’ve been waiting for you, Human Ancestor.”
