Chapter 266 The Power to Destroy the World, Reverse Dragon Style
The Seed of Destruction was an ancient Divine Artifact from the Eternal Heaven, with immense power.
More than two thousand years ago, the Corruption Demon God Marpa was able to kill the Golden Crow, and the "Seed of Destruction" was credited with more than ninety percent of the feat.
In comparison,
the Corruption Demon God Marpa didn't seem like the master of the "Seed of Destruction."
Instead, it seemed more like an ornament attached to it.
During the sealing of over two thousand years, the power of the "Seed of Destruction" was somewhat weakened. But since leaving the Dharma King Temple and carrying the Seed of Destruction close to his body, Su Heng keenly felt that this artifact was self-healing, like a living creature.
At this moment—
Deep within the Demon Suppression Tower, in a dark chamber glowing dimly,
Su Heng's expression was somewhat solemn as he pulled the Seed of Destruction out of his chest, spreading his fingers.
A strange force diffused, like tangible dark green light shimmering in the room, casting reflections on Su Heng's face. The source of the light was the "Seed of Destruction" floating in the void in front of him.
The Seed of Destruction was about the size of an adult's head.
It had a flesh-like texture, resembling the exterior of a heart.
And with every pulse of the Seed of Destruction, a force was pumped out, spreading outward, seeking to corrode and assimilate everything around it.
On one hand, Su Heng's physique was robust.
On the other, with the enhancement of his attribute panel,
Su Heng's body was essentially invulnerable and immune to all poisons. He did not fear contamination of this level.
It was only with these two prerequisites that Su Heng dared to carry the Seed of Destruction close to his body at all times. Otherwise, even an Earth Immortal strong enough to break through Heavenly Deceit could not withstand being with the Seed of Destruction for an extended time and would be eroded and corrupted into a puddle of rotten flesh.
"Hu..."
He took a long breath and invested his spirit into the Seed of Destruction.
The moment the two connected, an endless torrent of hatred and crazed will washed over Su Heng's mind. This will, so desperate and mad, struck Su Heng's head like a heavy hammer slamming down hard.
"Interesting!"
This was the first time Su Heng had experienced such a degree of mental contamination since he began his cultivation.
He immediately snorted coldly, a gleam flashing in his eyes.
Muttering the Tathagata Treasury Scriptures,
Su Heng mobilized the origin of his spirit to suppress the maniacal and chaotic will within the Seed of Destruction. Afterward, he carefully probed its internal structure and the origin of this power. Moments later, Su Heng slightly wearily withdrew his own will and stretched out his hand to rub his temples.
"No wonder the out-of-control Seed of Destruction can pierce through world barriers and carve out a Mythical Battlefield on Skull Plain."
Su Heng murmured.
Beyond its corruptive and erosive authority,
the Seed of Destruction was like a "biological pump."
Extracting power from the Eternal Heaven, transformed through the authority of corruption, and continuously released into the present world.
If not controlled,
given enough time to this creature,
Su Heng did not doubt that the Seed of Destruction could turn an entire living planet into a lifeless inferno abyss.
"No wonder it's called 'Seed of Destruction'; it truly has the power to destroy worlds,"
Su Heng contemplated, then chuckled, speaking to himself, "But now, this power will serve me, a return to the right track, indeed."
A surge of excitement passed through his heart.
As his understanding of the Seed of Destruction deepened, the power of this thing was much stronger than Su Heng initially imagined.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
If he could successfully integrate and master it, it would bring about another qualitative transformation.
In the secret chamber, Su Heng involuntarily entered the Domineering State.
Dragon Blood, the heart of the golden crow, all activated, elevating his poise to its peak, not slackening in the slightest despite the initial success of the integration.
Next.
Was to perfect the blood circulation within the body, undergo organ mutation, evolve and adapt, and fully release the power of the Seed of Destruction, much like when he integrated the heart of the golden crow.
This process, however, would take Su Heng some time.
Moreover, as the Seed of Destruction integrated deeper, wisps and threads of black smoke gradually began to emerge from Su Heng in the secret chamber. The base structure of the Demon Suppression Tower was constructed from radiant stones. This special material had the effect of restraining demonic auras.
But when the radiant stones came into contact with the black mist, the incredibly hard stones began to melt as if they were candles burning, and hissing noises continuously emanated from them.
And within the encircling mass of cold, dark mist.
The figure of Su Heng, ferocious and towering, with crimson fire flickering in his eyes, appeared like a demon descended into the world, inspiring fear and trembling hearts.
...
...
...
While Su Heng was secluded in a breakthrough.
As the Mythical Battlefield descended, bringing pollution, other dramatic changes were also happening in the outside world.
In the seven states of Jiang E, there are three great immortal sects and four great families.
Among the four great families, the Wu Family in the north of Jiang had the strongest comprehensive strength, with beings stronger than Heavenly Deceit stationed there. However, the origins of the Wu Family were not ancient; the family had only about seven to eight hundred years of history.
Originally, the Wu Family was a military noble family from a previous generation in Changyue.
As the empire's influence expanded outward, the Wu Family contributed greatly to its military achievements, subsequently relocating to the state of Jiangbei.
After centuries of development.
In Jiangbei state, the Wu Family's influence spread far and wide, deep-rooted like ancient tree roots, entrenched in various domains and industries.
The ancestral home of the Wu Family was located in the southwestern corner of Tian Shan County in Jiangbei state.
There were mountains and waters.
The mountain was named Feng Mountain, and the water, Mirror Lake.
Normally speaking, being embraced by mountains and waters would be regarded as good geomancy, known as the "riding dragon formation."
But the geomancy for the Wu Family was the exact opposite. Feng Mountain stretched majestically, lush and green. However, it turned its back to Mirror Lake, extending in the opposite direction.
This created the even rarer "reverse riding dragon formation" geomancy.
Legend had it that living in such geomantic conditions typically led to extreme outcomes.
One either soared upon the dragon, skyrocketing to great heights, or met with the destruction of home and family, plunging into the abyss, never to rise again.
Looking at the Wu Family's history over the past few centuries.
It seemed they were treading on the former path.
Between Jing Lake and Feng Mountain, the ancestral home of the Wu Family was laid out densely. There weren't many people inside, and the atmosphere was somewhat gloomy. Despite the clear weather, this vast estate seemed enveloped in a persistent haze. Approaching it, an inexplicable chill crept into one's heart.
In a nondescript earthen fortress deep within the estate, the environment was dark and gloomy, sunlight completely blocked by the tall trees surrounding it.
And within the vast and empty fortress, only a few candles on the coiled dragon pillars provided light.
The dark red candlelight flickered across the wrinkled face of the old man, furrowing valleys into his aged skin. He was very old, withered and shrunken, his lips parched. The loose, sagging skin draped over his skeletal frame, failing to hide the decay of old age, even in the fine brocade robes he wore.
Only the occasional flash of captivating brilliance in his pitch-black pupils.
Confirmed his extraordinary cultivation, as he had reached the Earth Immortal Realm.
This man was Wu Chenghua, the second-generation ancestor of the Wu Family.
And before Wu Chenghua was a terrifying demon god clad in blood-colored garments, with an eerie smile on its face, exuding an overwhelming Demonic Qi!
