Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start-Chapter 1433 - 322 Disasters in Many Worlds, Exhaustion of the Myriad Realms

In the Qingyun Palace, Ao Xuan began to disclose the true nature of what is known as the great calamity of the era, unraveling the mystery for all present.

Demonic spirits and malevolent fiends—the former denotes demons, and the latter, evil devils. According to Ao Xuan, these two are the greatest threats to the myriad realms since the beginning of history.

Of course, there are no demonic spirits in the Upper Realms now, just evil devils, but in many worlds like the Nine States, all were destroyed by demonic spirits.

How the Upper Realms came to be, naturally, was due to the shattering of various heavens and earths, the destruction of the myriad realms, and ultimately, all the fragments of these worlds merged to form what is now known as the grand universe.

The Three Thousand Six Hundred Domains represents an unknown number of myriad worlds that were all destroyed by demonic evil.

Among this destruction, countless creatures have also perished at the hands of demonic evil.

"So, during the last major era, what the Ice Emperor faced was the evil devils?" Gu Chen frowned, looking toward Ao Xuan.

With a heavy voice, Ao Xuan said, "Not just the last era, but at the end of every epoch, evil devils will emerge and then destroy the entire myriad realms. It is only because of the supreme beings of various realms, who have spared no effort, and even sacrificed their lives to resist, that we have our present."

"Can these evil devils not be completely annihilated, not even by the supremely powerful beings?" Gu Qingyan also spoke up, as many around were greatly puzzled by this.

This was the first time they had heard such a secret, and everyone listened intently, not daring to miss even a single detail.

Hearing this, Phoenix Dance spoke solemnly, "Even the supremely powerful beings reach the end of their strength, they are not omnipotent." freēnovelkiss.com

Ao Xuan’s expression was extremely grave as he looked at Gu Chen and said, "Disasters befall worlds, myriad realms grow desolate, and the nine heavens and ten lands will ultimately become dust one day. All creatures will die, and this great catastrophe of the era will unleash a heaven-shattering turmoil of bloodshed—all because of the existence of demonic evil, which seeks to slaughter its way to our world!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Chen fell into silence. After a while, he asked, "Is it possible to sever the connection between the world of demonic evil and our realm?"

He had done such a thing before. In the Nine States, to save billions of souls, he had gone alone to the spatial gateway and obliterated everything there, ensuring the peace of the Nine States thereafter.

As soon as he said this, everyone’s attention was caught, all eyes turned to Ao Xuan and the others.

"It’s impossible," Ao Xuan shook his head.

At this moment, Can Miao spoke, "This is the law that governs the way of heaven, the order of the grand cosmos. It cannot be overturned by human effort, not even by supremely powerful beings. At the end of each epoch, the world of demonic evil and our own will reach a point of high convergence, and this is what is known as the great catastrophe of the era!"

Gu Chen’s frown deepened, for the implication seemed to suggest that the way of heaven was sentient, purging them, the cultivators.

"Where exactly do these demonic evils come from?" At that moment, Long Yi could not wait to ask.

The patriarch of the dragon clan looked at him, his words heavy, uttering just two words, "Hell!"

"Hell?!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone exclaimed, including Gu Chen, whose eyes flickered without cease. These two words were once mentioned to him by the head of Qingyun Academy, Situ Yin.

He remembered it clearly.

"They come from hell? No wonder they’re incompatible with living beings, yet they are not filled with the aura of death," Yun Zishu said, his face full of confusion and perplexity.

At this time, the Holy Maiden of Taoxu Road, Chu Yue Ling, spoke up. Her voice was ethereal, like a stream from a fairy spring, "These demons and strange creatures are said to come from hell, but this is just a guess. The exact origin of them has been a topic of debate for a long time. However, this guess about hell seems to be the more reliable one, but it wasn’t until the last major era, after the Ice Emperor intervened, that the actual location of the world where these demonic evils reside was truly confirmed."

"From where?" Everyone’s gaze focused on the Holy Maiden Chu Yue Ling.

"According to the surmise of the most exalted from the previous great era and the experience of their personal battles, it can be confirmed that demonic evil is the aggregate of all negative energies from the myriad realms and can also be said to be the concentration of the seven emotions and six desires of creatures like us," Chu Yue Ling spoke, concluding her statement, even her expression becoming solemn and her flawless countenance filled with somberness.

"The aggregate of negative energies?!" Long Yi exclaimed, their brows furrowed in concern.

Ao Xuan cast a glance at Chu Yue Ling and then stated, "Based on the speculations of the most exalted beings, the world of demonic evil belongs to the dark side of our universe."

"Hmm?" Gu Chen’s frown deepened, the demonic evil existed within the same world as them?

Long Yi and a few others also were confused, feeling ever more mystified the more they listened.

Only Luo Bing, Tianyuan Taoist, and a few other descendants of the Nine Heavens, who already knew some of the information, understood it more easily and quickly.

At this time, Qi Dao spoke up. He said, "Everything has its yin and yang, like the dual nature of all matters, where there is light, there must be darkness; where there’s black, there must be white; cause and effect; water and fire. The world we inhabit is the yang side of the myriad realms, also known as the world of the living, while the realm where demonic evil resides is the yin side, also known as the netherworld, the underworld, and this is the truth."

That is why those who know the truth are more accustomed to referring to the world of demonic evil as hell.

With a solemn tone, Ao Xuan stated, "Just like what was mentioned earlier, demonic evil is the congregation of all the negative energies of the myriad realms. Therefore, theoretically, they are endless and indestructible. Even the most exalted beings cannot utterly annihilate them—it’s just not possible."
