53: The myth ends
By the fourth year, you even managed to split off a God Realm clone to fight him without him realizing it.
Your original self had already withdrawn to continue researching and cultivating his own Martial Way.
And, it was also from the fourth year that the Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor felt he was likely to completely suppress you and finally send you to oblivion.
After all, he was fighting your clone, and you had withdrawn a lot of power.
But the Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor felt good about himself; he even secretly speculated:
You had no stamina left!
Young people just couldn't last; they were exhausted after only three years of fighting!
Unlike him, the Demon Ancestor, he could last another six or seven years without fear.
Thus, the Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor fought with increasing vigor, while your clone, on the other hand, felt the exhilaration of battling an equally matched opponent.
In the fifth year, your clone was at a disadvantage, and the Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor was invigorated... You analyzed the Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor's Divine Authority and comprehended three Divine Abilities...
In the sixth year, your clone gritted his teeth, persisting to reverse the decline, yet he was tottering. The Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor believed you were overdrawing your life force and stamina, so he began to exert himself, frequently unleashing powerful moves... You were still studying the Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor, but you had analyzed six of his laws, from which Divine Abilities were derived...
In the seventh year, your clone was suppressed, but he occasionally bounced back from rock bottom. The Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor was utterly exhausted, his nine heads taking turns to suppress you; he needed rest, but you were not honest... You analyzed his core Divine Authority: Substitute Death and Return to Life!
A life-system Divine Authority.
In the eighth year, you were suppressed, but you dishonestly bounced back... The Demon Ancestor was tired, the Demon Ancestor was weary, the Demon Ancestor was running out of stamina... You analyzed the Demon Ancestor's Divine Source, wanting to compare the third step of the Void Divine Way with your own...
In the ninth year, the Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor, having persisted for another year, could no longer hold on due to lack of stamina. He still hadn't completely suppressed you and refined you, and was too weak to fight further...
In the tenth year, you and the Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor shattered the Divine-Demon Battlefield, descending into the Void once more, each standing above two realms.
Your aura and pressure enveloped both realms, causing the soldiers and generals of both realms on the outer battlefield to bow and kneel, unable to stand.
Even Demon Gods, even Martial Emperors empowered by blessings, were no exception.
The Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor was indignant; he was so close!
He was enraged, and he began to offer sacrifices!
He sacrificed hundreds of millions of demon race members from the Demon Ancestor Realm, turning them into a part of himself, replenishing his Divine Power and energy, and compensating for the consumption of his Divine Source.
More than sixty Demon Gods, hundreds of millions of demon race members, had not yet awaited their Ancestral God, but in an instant, they became nourishment for the Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor.
Their desperate invasion and battles with Human Martial Artists seemed, in this instant, to have all become a joke, utterly meaningless.
You waved your sleeve, stopping the Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor, who was attempting to devour even the human race as nourishment.
You gathered all the Human Martial Artists back into the current Divine Martial Realm.
This farce was about to reach its end.
The ten-year battlefield had also allowed the Divine Martial Realm to undergo a baptism; combat, slaughter, cultivation techniques, Divine Abilities, secret arts, and even Divine Authority!
They had made great progress.
"Human brat! You can't escape!
Jie jie jie jie jie!
Today will surely be your death day! What if you could last ten years in my hands!
Now, what battle strength do you have left to contend with me?!"
The Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor was eager to kill this human god!
He had misjudged!
He truly hadn't expected it!
Young people could really endure!
He had suppressed him long ago, yet he still hadn't completely suppressed him!
A mere young god!
It was time to let him know how treacherous the Void was!
Let go of your bottom line, and enjoy an evil life!
Nine-Headed Primordial Breath!
The Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor held nothing back, unleashing a powerful move from the start. He wanted to suppress and kill you in one go, to avoid any further complications.
Martial Palm Universe!
In an instant, you stopped pretending!
You raised your hand and unleashed a sky-covering giant handprint, instantly grasping the Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor in your palm.
Your vast, cosmic figure instantly surpassed the Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor, and then, in a flash, the Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor's figure, in comparison, became tiny, like an ant next to a child!
In this light, the Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor was like a small insect in your hand, fragile and weak!
The Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor could hardly believe it!
He refused to believe it!
Was this the person who had fought him for ten years?
This was not demonology!
Even if he ate golden fertilizers, such a huge disparity couldn't appear in an instant!
This wasn't right!
The demon didn't believe it! The demon didn't believe it!
"No! How did you do it?
I don't believe it! You are so powerful!
This story isn't right!
It shouldn't be like this!" The Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor roared silently, appearing desolate, despairing, yet unwilling.
"Don't believe it? I played along with you, and you took it seriously?
Nine Luminaries, in your next life, be smarter!" You chuckled lightly, twirling your fingers, crushing him in your hand.
Head after head exploded and reformed, body shattered and healed.
You repeated the crushing nine times; finally, the Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor no longer moved or recovered.
He was dead!
No, the Nine Luminaries Demon Ancestor was not completely dead!
After you recovered your form, you personally saw him transform into a snake shadow, hidden and merged into the Void, fleeing into the distance.
You had already imprinted your Divine Authority law on his Soul.
You deliberately let him go, to find new myriad worlds for yourself and for the Divine Martial Realm!
This would be a new journey!
A journey within the Void!
Within the Void, the myriad worlds, how magnificent they were!
How could it be without you!
In this life, thirty-three years!
You had no rivals!
Not a single being was worthy of your full effort!
A good warrior has no glorious achievements!
Invincibility, how lonely it was!
You grabbed the incomplete Demon Ancestor Realm, refined it, and merged it into the Divine Martial Realm, to serve as a world-level secret realm, or perhaps to become a part of the Divine Martial Realm in the future, forming an attached minor realm!
You comprehended the laws of heaven and earth, the Divine Authority of the Divine Way, and the wonders of creation; you were one step closer to the third stage of the Universe.
Suddenly, you felt a clear intuition, your Soul illuminated!
You knew your past and present lives, your past and present!
So that's how it was!
It was actually like this!
From the depths of your Soul, you released a wisp of your Soul's original self, a brilliant wisp possessing the boundless power of your Soul's profound mystery.
Simulation!
Transmigration!
How mysterious the world was!
Such incredible things existed!
The State had such a wondrous encounter, awaiting your arrival!
You understood everything!
With the support of the State, you gained Fortune and Misfortune Depend on Each Other and Sword Heart Clarity!
And the combination of the Myth Simulation and the State's original self had made you who you were today!
But, at this moment, it seemed that the simulation had reached its limit, or perhaps, you had now completely surpassed the State, even renaming it the Divine Martial Realm!
This myth of you and your original self was about to end...
