This Is My Planet - Chapter 134 - Chapter 134 – Myriad Illusion Demon
Within the palm lies the universe, and within a single thought, infinity unfolds.
Though it seemed he had escaped to a distant place, in truth, he had never left. He had always been here, right in the palm of the hand.
This was the manipulation of space.
Shang Zhaoye once tasted a similar feeling, but that was just child’s play… This time, it was true divine power. The divine descendant Wu Xiang was certain that he had already fled to another continent, yet with just a blink, he found himself still within the palm of the Divine Creator.
The disparity… is it that vast?
“Swoosh!” The black and white Tai Chi vortex swirled in a mysterious arc, brushing past him, rushing out of the atmosphere, and disappearing into the cosmic void, its destination unknown.
Xia Guixuan raised his head, gazing into the distance with a smile. “Who knows, maybe it hit some asteroid somewhere… Such a sin.”
The Head of State Liu Zhiyuan hovered silently in the sky nearby, his expression grave and wordless.
Meanwhile, the divine descendant Wu Xiang, after his initial terror, realized that he wasn’t entirely without hope…. Because the formation here suddenly reversed to defense, the strong reinforcement suddenly gave him more resistance.
So, with a struggle of his divine sense, he broke free from Xia Guixuan’s control, forming a pincer attack with Liu Zhiyuan. The cold sweat from his earlier fear hadn’t even dried on his forehead.
Xia Guixuan seemed unbothered by his escape, instead looking at Liu Zhiyuan with a smirk. “It seems you’re quite protective of this divine descendant priest, not wanting to harm him… I thought for someone like you, nothing would be off-limits.”
Liu Zhiyuan solemnly replied, “Your strength has exceeded our expectations. Any additional power is beneficial.”
Xia Guixuan chuckled, “So you still think you can deal with me now?”
Liu Zhiyuan calmly said, “If you’d investigated more thoroughly, you’d know this formation has been in preparation for decades. It wasn’t intended to deal with you; we never expected a strange human powerhouse to appear here and disrupt our plans.”
Xia Guixuan smiled, “To deal with the Demon King?”
“That’s one reason,” Liu Zhiyuan sighed. “This Demon King is indeed a talented strategist. She not only unified the divine descendants but also set up the Heavenly Dao Sect to tempt humans with the desire for immortality. If this continued, in less than a hundred years, she will be the undisputed ruler of this planet, and humans will be enslaved. What’s even more terrifying is her remarkable insight. She sensed the hidden malice in the void and had already begun to investigate… If she continued to investigate, not only would humans be in trouble, but the Fire Abyss Priest of the divine descendants will also be exposed.”
“Fire Abyss…” Xia Guixuan finally looked at the divine descendant Wu Xiang, smiling. “The original form three-headed hound, transformed into the Wu Xiang of fire and darkness, seemingly vast and tranquil, but not as good as a horse…”
Fire Abyss finally recovered from his previous weakness, took a deep breath, and said, “Even a mere fox can become a Demon King, and even her mount wants to be a High Priest. How can the descendant of fire and darkness not achieve something?”
“Once a thought of malice arises, greed and envy follow. Lured by foreign demons, you no longer know why you do what you do, taking one step after another. Do you really think you’re aiming high? Forget it… You’re not even as good as Yan Wuyue, who doesn’t know where she came from but remains true to herself.” Xia Guixuan sighed softly. “Do you still think you are Fire Abyss?”
Fire Abyss’s expression changed, “What do you mean by that?”
“Watch closely. They won’t let you continue using your own rules. Now that I’ve said this much, it’s time to reveal your true form.”
With Xia Guixuan’s words, Fire Abyss suddenly screamed in agony, and the once well-hidden original form of the Three-Headed Hound suddenly split open. The three heads turned outward, transforming into the form of a giant dog. Its eyes were now crimson and ferocious, completely losing its former calmness.
The three heads roared skyward simultaneously, like the drums of heaven and earth, causing the wind and clouds to change color.
Xia Guixuan sighed somewhat absentmindedly, “Indeed… unaware of being possessed. Even a dignified Wu Xiang can’t escape.”
Liu Zhiyuan’s expression became exceedingly cautious. “Your knowledge is vast enough to create your own world, to command the winds and rain. Why then do you involve yourself in these trivial matters on this planet, which should be insignificant in your eyes?”
“Umm… Haven’t I told you this before? Who did I tell…?” Xia Guixuan tapped his head, “Oh, right, the only one I’ve told is Moxue.”
Liu Zhiyuan said sternly, “Please clarify.”
“Because…” Xia Guixuan extended his hand, encircling the entire earth with his index finger, “This is my planet. Your Myriad Illusory Realm has encroached upon my territory.”
“As expected…” Liu Zhiyuan wasn’t surprised. His previous question seemed only to confirm his suspicion. Hearing Xia Guixuan’s answer, he instead laughed. “So the Divine Creator truly exists in this world. I was indeed presumptuous.”
Xia Guixuan said indifferently, “No need for such foolish words… The foundation of your formation was always to deal with the ‘Divine Creator of this planet,’ who would inevitably appear one day. It was aimed at me all along.”
“Correct. Since Your Excellency is the Divine Creator, then this formation indeed was originally intended for you.” Liu Zhiyuan smiled, “You are certainly powerful, even invincible within this world, because even the world’s laws are defined by you.”
Xia Guixuan pointed at the three-headed hound. “The divine descendants cannot oppose me without external forces. If I wished, I could even strip them of their entire cultivation. It’s not that the gap between me and them is so immense; it’s that they’re fundamentally constrained. Anyone striving to break through would start considering how to rely on external forces. You tested the Demon King, and she detected the presence of ‘foreign demons’… She didn’t fall for your trap, but there are always others who will, like this foolish dog.”
Liu Zhiyuan praised with a smile, “Indeed, but since you know that this Tai Chi formation isn’t part of your system and that external forces are helping them break through, why are you so focused on solving the mystery instead of stopping it outright…”
As he spoke, his appearance began to change.
Originally a thin-faced, gray-haired old man, his face began to contort as he spoke, slowly turning into a blurred face, indistinguishable where the eyes, nose, and mouth were, like a clay figure being molded, still in the process of formation.
Myriad Faceted Illusion Demon, body possession.
His human aura transformed, growing stronger and stronger, breaking through the Wu Xiang realm and slowly approaching the Tai Qing level.
Peak of Wu Xiang.
At the same time, the three-headed hound stopped its howling. This was the result of the divine descendant Wu Xiang’s soul being completely devoured and fused by another illusion demon. The three heads slowly merged into one, resembling a dog’s head but with constantly shifting, indistinct features.
Also at the peak of Wu Xiang.
The two illusion demons each occupied the Yin and Yang eyes of the Tai Chi formation, , swirling around them into a new black and white pattern.
This was the grand formation they had spent decades constructing. With this, they killed the Demon King and also attempted to kill Xia Guixuan.
The formation’s scale far surpassed what they used against the Demon King and the human leaders, which only required a single beam of light. Now, the formation was fully activated, its power interlinking and complementing both sides, with a faint aura of Tai Qing surging into the sky. At the same time, a strange weakening and restriction took effect, altering the regional laws and making Xia Guixuan’s familiar divine powers unusable.
For those who weren’t martial cultivators, such restrictions were the hardest to endure, as they forced people to adapt from methods they had relied on for millennia, and such adaptation wasn’t immediate.
“You’re really something.” Xia Guixuan sighed with admiration. “Using my Shadow Condensation Bead, using my Jiuhua Mirror, analyzing my principles, and arranging the Light and Shadow Reverse Tai Chi. No wonder the Demon King was instantly killed. She couldn’t withstand such miraculous things.”
The illusion demon of Liu Zhiyuan began to grin, “Did you ever consider that you, too… might die?”
Both illusion demons burst into laughter, one after the other, and the black clouds in the sky rolled and billowed, as if the end of the world was about to come.
Countless humans and divine descendants, now parasitized and turned into demons, looked up and responded, their life force converging and flowing into the formation’s core.
“I indeed never thought about it.” In the center of the storm, Xia Guixuan’s expression was calm and composed. “Because the one breaking the formation isn’t me.”
As his words fell, a glint of steel appeared faintly in the rolling black clouds above.
Gongsun Jiu’s voice came from somewhere, “Ion decomposition ray, level one preparation!”
The sound of countless heavy cannons being raised echoed to the ends of the earth.
