653. Next Time Lin Arrives, the Dark Demon Domain Will Perish!
The Sphere of Demonic Clouds, combined with the power of the Dark Demon Domain, assailed Lin Fei's Eternal Realm with dual forces. Both forces were extraordinary and not easily countered.
Nonetheless, Lin Fei remained unmoved, instead intensely compressing the Eternal Realm. As the Eternal Realm shrank, its power and defense grew exponentially, preparing Lin Fei to directly confront the onslaught of the Sphere of Demonic Clouds and the realm's forces.
With a thunderous boom, the Chaotic Heavy Water within the Sphere of Demonic Clouds unleashed its power in an instant, brutally striking Lin Fei's Eternal Realm. The impact caused severe fluctuations as if it were about to shatter.
At the same time, the forces of the Dark Demon Domain crushed in from all directions, marking one of the most perilous moments Lin Fei had ever faced. His Eternal Realm underwent an unprecedented test.
However, the more dire the situation, the calmer Lin Fei became. He unleashed all the power of the Eternal Realm, allowing the combined forces of the Dark Demon Domain and the Sphere of Demonic Clouds to hammer against it. As long as the Eternal Realm did not tear apart, he would withstand the assault.
But eventually, Lin Fei's Eternal Realm did rupture. It was unclear how much time had passed when it happened. Despite this, the Dark Demon Lord found no joy in the outcome.
Although Lin Fei's Eternal Realm had indeed ruptured, it was only after a significant amount of Chaotic Heavy Water from his Sphere of Demonic Clouds had been depleted. Relying solely on the Dark Demon Domain, even if the Eternal Realm was now fractured, what did it really change?
A slight smile appeared on Lin Fei's lips as he slowly spoke, "Dark Demon Lord, it seems you cannot overcome me. Since that's the case, my goal has been achieved. When I return to the Dark Demon Domain, it will be the day of its destruction!"
Having declared his intentions, Lin Fei unleashed the full power of the Eternal Realm.
With a deafening boom, the Dark Demon Domain trembled violently. Simultaneously, a massive hole appeared in the sky. All around, the Dark Demons looked up in shock as they witnessed what seemed like a gargantuan rift in the heavens. The void shattered, evoking scenes of an apocalyptic end.
"What's happening? Why is the sky breaking apart?"
"There's a destructive aura... This has never happened before in the Dark Demon Domain. After all, we have our great Ruler."
"Why is there no word from our Ruler?"
"What on earth is going on?"
Gazing into the dark void, many Dark Demons felt a surge of fear. Under normal circumstances, the Dark Demon Lord would never allow such transformations to occur in his realm.
Yet, now a change had happened, and it looked ominous. Some of the Dark Demons began to speculate boldly—perhaps the Dark Demon Domain was facing a crisis that even the Dark Demon Lord couldn't resist or completely mitigate.
Whatever the reason, it was certainly not good news.
Lin Fei, however, was unconcerned with these developments. Having unleashed his full power in one strike, breaking through the Dark Demon Domain, he didn't linger. In an instant, Lin Fei flew out of the realm.
As Lin Fei departed, the void in the Dark Demon Domain gradually began to heal, leaving only the Dark Demon Lord alone, his expression incredibly grim. He stared fixedly in the direction Lin Fei had left. He knew that time was running out for him. If Lin Fei truly ascended to Supreme status, then upon his next arrival, the Ruler would undoubtedly be unable to withstand him—nor would the Dark Demon Domain itself.
Perhaps, he would die.
"Lin Fei..." the Dark Demon Lord murmured lowly, his gaze deep and troubled. He could not afford to sit idly by. He needed to devise a strategy, ideally one that would permanently resolve the threat from the Divine Realm, and Lin Fei.
With a swift step, Lin Fei reentered the Chaos and glanced back at the Dark Demon Domain. "
The power of the Dark Demon Domain, coupled with the Sphere of Demonic Clouds, though they cannot subdue me, likewise, I cannot defeat the Dark Demon Lord or destroy the Dark Demon Domain," he reflected coldly. "Unless my Eternal Realm evolves again, ideally into a real realm. Only then can I truly eliminate the Dark Demon Lord and annihilate the Dark Demon Domain."
Destroying the Dark Demon Domain was not only possible for Lin Fei but also a desired outcome. He had a compelling reason: some of the realm's Supremes knew the location of the Divine Realm.
The exposure of a domain's location in the Chaos was a critical vulnerability. Once exposed, the Divine Realm would be in danger. Even a realm under a Ruler's control was not immune to threats—it was only a matter of time before it faced danger.
"Lin... Martial Ancestor Lin, save us."
"The Dark Demon Lord is going to destroy our Dark Demon Hearts. We are going to die."
"Martial Ancestor Lin, save us..."
At that moment, inside Lin Fei's Eternal Realm, the three Dark Demon Domain Supremes suddenly screamed in agony. Their true forms were rapidly disintegrating, collapsing without warning.
"Your Dark Demon Hearts are going to be destroyed by the Dark Demon Lord."
"I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do," Lin Fei replied calmly. "After all, the Dark Demon Hearts are in the hands of the Dark Demon Lord. If he decides to destroy them, I am powerless to stop him."
Indeed, if the Dark Demon Lord decided to extinguish the three Supremes' Dark Demon Hearts, Lin Fei was truly helpless. Besides, what concern was the life or death of these Dark Demon Domain Supremes to him?
It was best if all Supremes who knew the location of the Divine Realm were utterly eradicated. Only then would Lin Fei truly be at ease.
Soon, the bodies of the three Dark Demon Domain Supremes completely disintegrated. They died, their life forces extinguished forever. This time, there was no possibility of resurrection because their Dark Demon Hearts too were destroyed. Even Supremes must die.
However, Lin Fei's Eternal Realm gained from this—it absorbed the essence of the three Supremes' flesh and blood. Thus, for Lin Fei's Eternal Realm, this turned out to be a fortuitous event.
With a whoosh, Lin Fei transformed into a streak of light and vanished into the Chaos...
...
In the Divine Realm, Lin Fei had been absent for some time now. Nearly eight months.
In the past, what were a mere eight months to speak of? To a True Immortal or a Martial Ancestor, it was but the blink of an eye.
And for a Supreme Being? It was scarcely worth mentioning. Yet, these past eight months, the remaining eight Supremes of the Divine Realm felt each day drag on like years. Their hearts fluctuated wildly, filled with unrest and a faint hope.
They knew why Lin Fei had ventured into the Chaos—to confront the Dark Demon Domain directly! The Dark Demon Domain, the dominion of the Dark Demon Lord and the birthplace of demonic life. Though they often spoke of their dominion, the true extent of a dominion's power remained a mystery to all.
With Lin Fei gone, who could predict what might happen? The Divine Realm could ill afford his absence. Should misfortune befall Lin Fei, the Dark Demon Domain would surely rise again.
Without Lin Fei, the Divine Realm stood little chance against such a resurgence. Thus, they hoped for Lin Fei's safe return.
Yet, on this day, Lin Fei had still not returned. Instead, someone none of the eight Supremes expected came back— White Cloud Supreme!
White Cloud Supreme, who had once left the Divine Realm to venture into the Chaos, had unexpectedly returned.
"Azure Emperor Supreme, are you all still here? It seems the Divine Realm has not fallen to the Dark Demons. That is good news; it seems I am saved. The Chaos is truly perilous!"
White Cloud Supreme appeared somewhat disheveled, hurrying back to the Divine Realm.
Was he fleeing?
Azure Emperor Supreme's brow furrowed as he asked in a deep voice, "White Cloud Supreme, you too are a Supreme of our Divine Realm. When you chose to venture into the Chaos, we did not hold you accountable, as each has their own path. Yet now, you return to the Divine Realm, and you seem to be in a state of disarray. Could it be that you were pursued in the Chaos and fled back here?"
With a swift motion, the words of Azure Emperor Supreme caused the other seven Supremes of the Divine Realm to fix their gaze upon White Cloud Supreme. In their looks, there was an unmistakable chill.
