Chapter 596: Chapter 564: The Forbidden of Heaven_1

"Six Demons Heaven Declaring!"

The exceptionally handsome Source Demon roared wildly within the small world inside the sword.

In front of him, there were six profound and mysterious spatial blend holes, which he used to channel and connect the Demon Element Power.

He gathered the overwhelming Demon Element Power within the sword, channeled it through the spatial blend holes, and poured it into those six great Demon Realm Cave Heavens.

The six peculiar Demon Realm Cave Heavens immediately surrounded themselves with blue-black Demon Light and began to expand continuously beneath the sky.

Numerous complex and strange demon patterns and Demon Arrays drifted out from the six great Demon Realm Cave Heavens, forming a complex Array similar to the "Sky-covering Demon Array."

This Array, known as "Six Demons Heaven Declaring," was based on the six great Demon Realm Cave Heavens as the foundation of Demon Tao and firmly controlled by the Source Demon.

Once the Array was formed, the Star Devourer enveloping a Star Core, as well as its sturdy and flexible limbs, were restricted by the Source Demon’s enacted techniques.

The previously writhing limbs, including the "Star’s Veins" consumed by the Star Devourer, also became motionless.

At that moment, the Star Devourer suddenly became a lamb to the slaughter.

"Shoo! Shoo, shoo!"

Bands of sword lights like streaks of rainbows immediately exploded from the tip of the Origin Demon Sword, turning into dozens of streams of sword light, carrying different essential understanding of the Sword Dao, beginning to slice through the Star Devourer’s limbs.

Apart from those limbs mixed with rust, Fine Gold, Mithril, and Origin Copper, which held unique properties, the others were successively severed by the sword lights.

Pang Jian brandished his sword again and again, the numerous Alien Powers within his body explosively burst forth, igniting even more dazzling sword lights, determined to dismember and mutilate the Star Devourer on the spot.

The splendid Star River, stars, Bright Moon, and sun hovering above his head congealed into sword lights and fell.

Taking advantage of the Star Devourer being pinned by the Source Demon with the six great Demon Realm Cave Heavens, Pang Jian displayed his power extensively, creating blade after blade of chilling sword light.

Just as the Star Devourer was gradually weakening and about to be slain by his sword, for some unknown reason, the six lands within the Dark Prison suddenly shook violently.

"Boom! Rumble!"

The sound of the earthquake was earth-shattering.

Suddenly, sword lights from Pang Jian shot out from those six lands, cutting down mountains, slicing rivers, and shattering cities and nations.

For a time, the wailing cries that shook the heavens and the earth resonated within this world.

If the sword lights did not cease, all life in the Dark Prison would be extinguished!

Stunned, Pang Jian was forced to hold back.

The sword lights that were supposed to continue slashing at the Star Devourer’s body were hurriedly retracted, not daring to penetrate with sword force again.

"Pang Jian!"

"Do you think I spared those six lands and left a path of survival for the beings of this world for no reason?"

"It was all for this moment."

The Star Devourer’s broken limbs connected back together as It spoke.

The movement of the limbs also meant that It had broken through the Source Demon’s "Six Demons Heaven Declaring."

The six lands that resonated with It, along with all their people and things, remained unmoved.

The offensive from Pang Jian and the Source Demon’s "Heaven Declaring" technique were unexpectedly applied by It to the regions above those six lands.

It had operated in the Dark Prison for many years, Its influence was deeply rooted and omnipresent.

It began its growth from a piece of Fragment Land and then moved on to complete continents.

After It had consumed three lands one after another, It seemed to stop contentedly.

But It was not truly satisfied. It merely shifted Its voracious greed from the lands to the stars from Outer Space.

Because after the three lands, It had awakened the great Divine Skills of the Star Devourer and acquired the power to pull stars.

It spared the six continents from consumption to nurture hope in the beings of the Dark Prison, to feast on the souls of the strongest of the nine-level Bloodline warriors, and to use the six lands to transfer the injuries It sustained.

To replace oneself with lands and stars to bear the brunt of attacks is an innate ability of the Star Devourer.

It could transfer all God Spirit’s power and Heaven Forbidden techniques onto the lands and stars It had previously refined, preparing them for Its escape.

"To kill me is to shatter those six lands, to annihilate the beings of this world."

"Pang Jian, think it over carefully."

The bizarre shrieks of the Star Devourer emanated from its various limbs.

"Whoosh!"

The Star Core wrapped by Its net-like body suddenly shone bright, shockingly driving both the Star Devourer and the severed limbs to violently fly towards the sky.

"It’s escaping from the Dark Prison!"

Han Yi and Ying Yue simultaneously cried out in alarm.

The two Alien God Spirits quickly maneuvered the "Extreme Cold Ghost Mountain" to chase after, attempting to prevent the Star Devourer’s departure.

Pang Jian did not hesitate and rode his sword to give chase.

"Purgatory, Human Race, I’ll remember this."

"Pang Jian, after I devour this Star Core and evolve once more, I will come to Purgatory to find you."

"I will make Purgatory as it is now in the Dark Prison, and I will feast on the souls of the powerful of the Human Race!"

"Pang Jian, we shall meet again, and it won’t be long."

The vengeful words of the Star Devourer rang out beneath the Dark Prison sky, echoing between heaven and earth.

It made sure that both great goddesses, all the beings of the Dark Prison, heard it loud and clear.

"Bang!"

At the moment It, with the Star Core, made contact with the Dark Prison Heaven Forbidden, invisible layers of Heaven Forbidden suddenly rippled from where It touched, spreading out in waves.

The wave of light, shaped like resplendent crystal auroras, instantly filled the entire dome of the Dark Prison World.

The odd body of the Star Devourer, along with the Star Core it enveloped, easily passed through the manifest auroral Heaven Forbidden and successfully reached the outer vacuum.

At this moment, the Star Devourer not only broke free from the Dark Prison but also from the Mysterious Fog.

It, along with the Star Core it wrapped, existed in the dark, icy starry space, pausing for but a moment.

And only for a moment.

Before several of its limbs could pass through the Heaven Forbidden like It, and merge with Its body, It fiercely sank down again, falling into the depths of the Mysterious Fog outside the Dark Prison.

"Bang!"

Han Yi and Ying Yue, aboard the "Extreme Cold Ghost Mountain," collided with the auroral Heaven Forbidden after the Star Devourer, immediately sensing an immense, supreme force bearing down on them.

That sealing force, originating from the "prison" of the world, was so profound and terrifying that it made Them feel as if their very souls were suffocating.

As Middle-level Gods who reigned supreme across numerous Star Rivers, Their souls had seldom experienced such pressure.

The pressure brought by the Dark Prison Heaven Forbidden left Them with no recourse; both the "Extreme Cold Ghost Mountain" and Their two Alien Tribes bodies were forced to sink a great distance.

Merely being next to the Heaven Forbidden brought with it like a shadow the pressure, which only intensified over time.

Only by sinking, only by distancing Themselves from the heavenly might, could Their souls feel at ease.

"So this is the Heaven Forbidden of the ’prison’ world, no wonder those who can break through the Heaven Forbidden and step out into the starry space are all so astonishing," Ying Yue sighed.

She regretted the escape of the Star Devourer, knowing that Their gains certainly wouldn’t meet expectations now.

Next.

Pang Jian’s Seven-colored Divine Body, following Them, charged towards the Dark Prison Heaven Forbidden, thinking it could ride the momentum and step out.

But with a "bang," he too was repelled by the force of the Dark Prison’s Heaven Forbidden and suddenly sank from the heights.

The Immortal Primordial Spirit, the real body’s "Purgatory Gate," turned out to be ineffective against the Dark Prison Heaven Forbidden!

After crashing into it, the dizzy Pang Jian turned pale with shock and, not willing to give up, surged upward once again.

"Bang! Bang bang!"

After three consecutive collisions, the dazzling Dark Prison Heaven Forbidden remained unmoved.

Even piercing it with the sharpness of the Origin Demon Sword, he was repelled all the same, just as incapable of shaking the Heavenly Forbidden seal.

That’s when Pang Jian finally came to a realization, the Heaven Forbidden that existed at the dome of the "prison" world, and the Boundary Wall that surrounded both Heaven and Earth, were not the same kind of material, nor were they the same thing at all.

He naively thought that, since the Immortal Primordial Spirit could pass through the Dark Prison Boundary Wall, it could also break through the Heaven Forbidden and escape.

Even if the Immortal Primordial Spirit couldn’t do it, he still had the "Purgatory Gate" copper plaque on him, which should similarly help him break free from the Dark Prison.

It turns out, he was overoptimistic.

The Boundary Wall is the Boundary Wall, the Heaven Forbidden is the Heaven Forbidden.

His Immortal Primordial Spirit and "Purgatory Gate," though capable of taking shortcuts through the Boundary Wall in and out of the "prison" world, could not, in fact, pass through the Heaven Forbidden.

The very existence of the Heaven Forbidden was to ensure that the strongest beings of a world used their raw strength to break through.

Those who shattered the Heaven Forbidden and soared across the vast Star Rivers were the God Spirits who were truly recognized.

Heaven unbroken, the Gods remain unseen!

The so-called True Gods, before breaking the Heaven Forbidden and stepping out of Purgatory, are merely Gods of the Human Race within the confines of Purgatory.

"There are still several limbs left!"

Han Yi, caring for nothing else at the moment, noticed that there were limbs of the Star Devourer flying up from below and hurriedly joined with Ying Yue to intercept them, determined to gain something.

"If the Heaven Forbidden is impassable, then exit through the Boundary Wall," said Pang Jian, sword in hand.

He circled beneath the dome of the Dark Prison, found places not covered by the auroral light, realizing it wasn’t the time for the Heaven Forbidden, and decisively tried to break through.

This time, he passed through in a flash!

A moment later, he appeared in the vast Mysterious Fog, conscious of the Dark Prison beside him and roughly how far he was from its dome.

But as he spread out his Divine Sense, he had no clue where the Star Devourer had gone.

From the Star Devourer’s break out of the Dark Prison World, pause in starry space, then descent into the Mysterious Fog, to his passage through the Boundary Wall to search for it, not much time had passed.

Yet in that brief moment, the Star Devourer had vanished without a trace.

He was not content.

He whistled around the Dark Prison, frantically extending his Divine Sense in search, trying to find the Star Devourer that threatened him.

He circled round and round, lingering near the Dark Prison World for a long time, yet he still could not capture the Star Devourer. Instead, he sensed the presence of the Thunder God, Fan Di.

He immediately knew much time had passed, and it was highly likely that the Star Devourer had drifted far from the Dark Prison, its whereabouts unknown.

From then on, searching for the Star Devourer in the Mysterious Fog was truly akin to searching for a needle in a haystack.

"Enough," he said.

Unable to fulfill his wish to slay the Star Devourer, he casually found another Boundary Wall and re-entered the Dark Prison World.

Beneath the dome, Ying Yue and Han Yi were still atop the "Extreme Cold Ghost Mountain," in mid-air near the two Alien Gods from Outer Space, several limbs of the Star Devourer floated.

After intercepting them, They did not hurry to make a move, as if waiting for something.

When he returned from the Mysterious Fog, reappeared in the Dark Prison World, the Goddess of Cold Crystal immediately waved her hand to signal.

"These limbs of the Star Devourer were all severed by you, and you contributed the most in this battle, so you should choose first," Han Yi said with an air of fairness.
