Chapter 1827 The Chaotic Battle
The protagonist of the "good show" that Ye Zhen mentioned is Chen Wanli.
They are currently trapped in an illusion, and the battle against that insane remnant has reached a critical moment!
Chen Wanli ignored the vengeful spirit's frantic and venomous roar. He clearly sensed that although the vengeful spirit was vast and chaotic, like an emotional vortex, it was primarily driven by resentment.
However, its core consciousness has long been fragmented over the long years and assimilation with the secret realm, leaving only some fragments of obsession and instinctive desire to attack.
At this moment, it "saw" the scene in Chen Wanli's illusion and went completely berserk.
Instead, it poured out even more chaotic soul power and fragmented memories without reservation, attempting to overwhelm Chen Wanli's consciousness in the most brutal way.
"Now!"
A fierce glint flashed in Chen Wanli's eyes; his actions were no longer merely defensive.
The Yin and Yang fires in his sea of consciousness, which had been maintaining a delicate balance, suddenly changed!
The supreme yang golden flame, representing the true fire of the sun, no longer gently protects, but transforms into countless fine, yet incomparably sharp, golden divine needles.
The extreme yin cold power representing the true water of the moon is no longer just cool and calming, but transforms into layers upon layers of dark blue ice nets that contain silence and the essence of freezing.
Yang fire is the spear, and Yin water is the net.
It wasn't a violent collision with the illusion barrier, but rather a direct attack on the remnant spirit of the Myriad Symbols Demonic Remains that had invaded his consciousness and was now launching a frenzied attack!
"bite!"
Chen Wanli let out a low shout, and countless golden divine needles precisely pierced into the surging torrent of soul power from the remnant spirit.
Instead of a direct defeat, it was like the most greedy roots, frantically seizing and absorbing the relatively pure soul power source and those shimmering fragments of memory!
At the same time, layers of azure ice net enveloped the attack, dividing, slowing down, and freezing the lingering resentment, creating the best environment for "devouring".
This is an extremely risky battle on the level of the soul!
A slight misstep could backfire, leading to being consumed by the endless resentment and madness within the demon's lingering remnants.
But Chen Wanli had no choice. He needed information, he needed power, and he needed to break the deadlock!
"Ah! You...you're devouring my soul?! You ant! You despicable!!"
The lingering resentment let out an even more piercing scream, sensing the threat, and its attacks became even more ferocious and chaotic.
However, this chaotic and disorderly attack was more like nourishment delivered to Chen Wanli, who was well-prepared and had constructed a sophisticated devouring network centered on the Yin and Yang Fires.
He endured the discomfort of his soul being overwhelmed by various negative emotions and fragmented memories, remaining steadfast like a rock in a raging storm, resolutely carrying out the process of devouring.
Fragmented, inverted images filled with pain and destruction forcefully flooded his consciousness.
A magnificent scene of immortals, with immortal mountains floating in the air, thousands of pavilions, and countless cultivators riding on talismanic light, their voices preaching like ethereal heavenly music...
The sudden destruction, the indescribable terror of the clear light that descended from the heavens, engulfed everything like a tidal wave.
The mountain gate's grand formation shattered like a paper lake, a tsunami surged into the sky, and the cultivators were silently annihilated in the clear light, their cries of agony and roars of fury intertwined...
Chaos, confusion, and doubt filled the air.
No one knows where this "disaster" came from.
Immediately afterwards, his consciousness dissipated as the star continent crumbled.
Endless resentment and shattered talismanic laws were swept into the chaotic void, eventually falling into this strange and mysterious realm.
It transformed into this dazed and confused "Myriad Talisman Demon Corpse," a creature that knew only resentment and aggression...
As a flood of information rushed through him, Chen Wanli's face turned pale, and cold sweat beaded on his forehead, but his eyes grew brighter and brighter.
In his fragmented memories, he saw the spirit world that Wanfu Mohai once saw, and all that happened on the island.
And the moment when Aoki Star shattered.
Judging from the reaction of the Myriad Mantra Demon Remains, the collapse of Qingmu Star seems to have been very sudden.
Everyone's face showed a sudden shock.
There was no preparation whatsoever.
It was as if we had suddenly encountered a natural disaster.
This gave Chen Wanli a deeper understanding and some speculation about the collapse of Qingmu Star.
More importantly, after absorbing this relatively core portion of the remnant soul power, Chen Wanli gained a clearer understanding of the methods of the Myriad Talisman Demon Corpse.
At the core of the illusion, most of the remaining consciousness is used to maintain and manipulate this vast illusion that covers the sea of the mind.
Every wisp of thought that manipulates the minds of others within the illusion consumes the main body's soul power.
The vital essence, its true and immovable core, lies within the skeletons and runic light at the center of this sea of the heart, bound to the soul magnetic land deep within this place.
To completely resolve this issue, someone must destroy the Soul Magnetic Land, delivering a fatal blow when its soul power is greatly depleted and its defenses are at their weakest, thus isolating the Soul Magnetic Land.
In that instant, Chen Wanli felt a chill run down his spine; he could already guess what Ye Zhenjun was planning.
The Purifying Talisman accelerates everyone's descent into becoming talisman beings controlled by the Myriad Talisman Demon Corpse. These talisman beings will instinctively cleanse those who are conscious, and killing or fighting against the talisman beings will continuously consume the soul power used by the Myriad Talisman Demon Corpse to maintain its control!
This is a vicious cycle: the lucid ones consume the demonic remains, and the rune-wielding beings controlled by the demonic remains consume the lucid ones!
Ye Zhenjun himself could hide in the shadows, wait for both sides to be exhausted, and then come out to easily clean up the mess, eliminating the demonic obstacles and destroying Chen Wanli and the experts of the divine race!
"What a brilliant plan! Using someone else to do the dirty work, killing several birds with one stone!" Chen Wanli felt a chill run down his spine.
If he hadn't been cautious and hadn't used the Cleansing Talisman, delaying his fall from grace and witnessing the collusion between Ye Zhenjun and the Heavenly Demon King...
If it weren't for his unwavering will, his anchoring in the mortal world to stay in the illusion of fate, and his risky devouring of lingering remnants to obtain crucial information, he would probably have become a pawn struggling desperately on Ye Zhenjun's chessboard!
Even now, he remains deeply mired in a predicament!
Knowing he couldn't delay any longer, Chen Wanli made a decisive move and devoured the portion of soul power, greatly increasing his "resistance" and understanding of this illusion.
He suddenly activated the Yin and Yang Fires, no longer concealing them, and they erupted violently within his sea of consciousness!
"The cycle of Yin and Yang breaks through illusion to reveal the truth!"
The supreme yang golden flames transformed into a raging inferno, while the supreme yin cold power condensed into barrier-breaking ice; the two were not in conflict.
Instead, they intertwine and rotate in a mysterious trajectory, forming a miniature Yin-Yang Taiji diagram that contains the essence of Tao!
The Tai Chi diagram slowly rotated in his sea of consciousness. Wherever it passed, the illusionary scene constructed by the remnants of the Myriad Talisman Demon Remains, filled with resentment and despair, melted and dissipated as if ice and snow were thrown into a raging fire!
The screams emanating from the lingering resentment abruptly ceased, as if it had been stunned and repelled by the power that contained the rudiments of the ultimate truth of heaven and earth.
"Crack!"
A cracking sound, audible only to Chen Wanli, rang out.
The thick illusion that shrouded his consciousness was plowed open by the Yin-Yang Fire Taiji Diagram!
The outside world, above the sea of the heart.
Chen Wanli, with his eyes closed and suspended in mid-air, suddenly shuddered.
The last layer of dark aura covering his body receded like the tide, and he suddenly opened his eyes!
Golden and blue light flashed alternately in his eyes, eventually settling into a deep calm. But beneath that calm lay suppressed anger and icy killing intent.
Just then, before he could do anything else, he felt a cold wind blow against his ear.
"Roar!"
The Dragon King Runeman, which was closest, launched the first attack, seemingly retaining a trace of the dragon race's fighting instincts.
The enormous dragon claw, carrying the deathly aura of the gray talisman and the remaining dragon flames, tore through the air and slammed down!
Its power far surpasses that of an ordinary early-stage Void Refinement cultivator!
It seems like he's reached a whole new level out of nowhere.
At the same time, Kuafu Chong, Fang Fengting, and dozens of other divine beings also seemed to have received a unified command.
It let out a silent roar and attacked from all directions!
Gray runes flickered, and various distorted and enhanced innate divine abilities or weapon attacks converged into a destructive torrent!
Chen Wanli took a deep breath, his eyes sharp as knives.
He made no attempt to explain or awaken them; under the deep control of the Myriad Rune Demon Remains, they were no different from puppets at this moment, and words were ineffective.
He couldn't kill them outright. While killing them would deplete the demonic soul power faster, it would also completely eliminate any chance of survival for his teammates.
Is this really fighting with your hands and feet tied?
Chen Wanli now only wants to tear that old dog who devised this vicious scheme to shreds!
In the nick of time, he moved like lightning, flashing out from the shadow of the Dragon King's giant claw, while simultaneously making a sweeping motion with both hands, unleashing the Yin and Yang flames at will.
The left palm struck out, not with scorching golden flames, but with the "Mysterious Ice Soul-Suppressing Palm" formed from extremely cold and yin energy. It carried the aura of freezing the soul and slowing down movement, and struck the chest of the Kuafu Chongfu man who was rushing from the side.
With a swift flick of his right finger, a wisp of condensed solar fire, sharpened to its utmost, shot precisely at the joint of the Wind-Protecting Talisman Man activating the Xun Wind Flag, attempting to interrupt his spellcasting.
"Peng!"
"laugh!"
Kuafu Chongfu was struck by the Xuanbing Palm Print, his forward momentum suddenly halted, the gray talisman on his chest flashed wildly, and his movements visibly slowed down.
The joints of the arm of the Wind-Proofing Talisman Man wielding the flag were pierced by the needles of true fire, and the gale on the flag surface immediately became chaotic.
However, those who have become talisman people know no pain, are not afraid of death, and their attacks are relentless.
On the contrary, Chen Wanli left himself an out, thus tying his hands and feet.
Seeing that the Dragon King's attack missed, the dragon's tail swept across like a steel whip, spewing out a dragon breath mixed with the death energy of the gray talisman!
The attacks from other talisman users also came from various tricky angles.
The chaotic battle has begun!
