Thanks for the invitation! I am in hell and have just become a demon king.

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience fell silent. They did not expect that Shiva, who seemed to have no desires, actually wanted to be Chen's queen.

"Shiva-chan, don't you want to fulfill your mission of destruction?"

"I thought this was the meaning of my birth, but during the days I traveled with you, what I saw and heard told me that simple destruction is meaningless, so I decided to restrain my destructive instinct."

"Although mortals are small, they are equally great. Every living being has the right to live in this world."

"The ultimate destruction is to destroy the world and yourself at the same time. I don't want to die now. I want to travel to various worlds with Chen like before."

"I see. Is this the meaning of the birth of the God of Destruction?"

God muttered to himself in Chen's mind. Even she didn't expect that Shiva's path would end in self-destruction. This was simply outrageous. How could there be such a way of domination in the world?

The way of the world is indeed extremely mysterious. Shiva is obviously also a native god born from this world, but the meaning of her birth is to destroy the world and destroy herself at the same time.

Because even the world itself cannot control the types of creatures that are born, many races born in the world may eventually destroy the entire world.

Somehow, Irene felt that her understanding of the way of creation seemed to have deepened a lot.

"No wonder Shiva's strength is increasing at a rate that's almost catching up with mine."

"Xiaochen, I just checked secretly. Shiva-chan's current strength has reached the peak level of the seventh level. The secondary personality that fought against Sirzechs before probably didn't even exert half of her original strength."

"If you hadn't gone over and helped Shiva-chan and changed her mind, we might have had a formidable opponent in the future."

"After all, if Shiva couldn't defeat you, he would have likely dragged you down with him. Who wouldn't be afraid of such an opponent?"

Chen: “…………………………”

One is a self-destructive madman who wants to destroy the world, and the other is a world-class terrorist who is so bored that he is ready to kill the Great Red to witness the scenery beyond the world. This can no longer be said to be a perfect match, they are completely kindred spirits.

Shiva at the peak of the seventh level can easily drag three or five overlords to die together. Even if he has many life-saving abilities, he will probably end up seriously injured.

"So I'm actually this amazing? From now on, I'll see who dares to call me a playboy!"

This idiot who hasn't grown up yet is actually paying attention to such trivial matters. Shouldn't the focus be on Shiva-chan?

The potential of this God of Destruction is simply endless. If he were to destroy a few opponents of the same level, he would probably be able to break through to the seventh level limit soon.

Maybe there is no need to kill several opponents of the same level, just one Indra is enough.

In Irene's opinion, Shiva's role is greater than that of Shabu and Nyarra combined. His current strength is not inferior to the latter two, and he is also obedient and well-behaved, which makes him much more pleasing to the eye than those two evil gods.

After all, the latter two were the famous evil gods of Chaos who had destroyed countless worlds. The aura they exuded made Irene extremely displeased.

Even if the two of them could greatly enhance the strength of Chen's subordinates, they might also bring a lot of trouble to Chen. She didn't believe that these two great evil gods had no enemies at the dominant level in the chaos.

So in order to prevent them from subtly polluting Xiaochen's mind, Irene planned to live in his spiritual world as the last line of defense for his soul.

Because Irene discovered that after breaking through the eighth-level immortality, one would often have to sleep for billions of years during each practice. Time had completely lost its meaning to the eighth-level immortal.

In fact, she already has some eighth-level essence now. For example, her soul and origin are completely integrated together. She can become infinitely large or infinitely small, and her origin is endless, etc.

There is a saying in the Eastern Dao that is close to the Tao, that she can now appear anywhere in the world, and all the light in the world is part of her.

An eighth-level immortal is no longer something that can be killed by human power. Even another eighth-level immortal cannot kill an immortal who has just broken through.

The only ones who can kill the Eighth Order are themselves and Chaos.

It is possible that an eighth-level immortal will completely merge into chaos during one practice, or it is possible that he will never wake up again during the practice and will remain in practice forever.

This is all possible.

Azathoth, who split into Shab, Yog, and Nyarsk, split silently during the process of cultivation and became three completely different gods, and no one knew where his original consciousness went.

Because every eighth-level being can feel that their road has not yet reached the end, and there are higher realms waiting for them ahead.

Those who can cultivate to the eighth level are definitely great beings with extremely strong will and character. Now that they know there is a way ahead, how could they be willing to stop.

As for Irene, she had absolutely no intention of sleeping to practice. As soon as she thought that she might have to sleep for billions of years or even longer to practice once, she instantly gave up the idea.

It is really despairing that she won’t be able to see her Xiaochen for billions of years.

Anyway, she and Xiaochen now have unlimited lifespans, so they can take it slow. No one stipulates that they can't practice while eating, drinking and having fun.

"Today, I'll explain to you that the Seventh Order is divided into five stages. Simply put, they are Lower, Middle, Upper, Peak, and Ultimate. Great Red is at the Ultimate of the Seventh Order, and Infinite Dragon God is at the Peak of the Seventh Order. However, Infinite Dragon God was no match for Great Red and was easily defeated. In theory, infinite power is definitely stronger than dream power."

"So, each small realm is a huge watershed. Many Overlords often spend tens of millions of years trying to advance to a small realm. Each advancement in a small realm is a process of qualitative change. You should have felt this way when you broke through from the lower realm to the current middle realm."

Chen nodded in his heart. In fact, he had cultivated all the way to the middle level of the seventh stage, and he hardly felt any bottleneck in breaking through. Anyway, he broke through the level without much difficulty every time.

That is to say, it is a bit difficult to go from level 6 to level 7.

But we got through it safely.

It was simply because he had eaten too many good things when he was at the sixth level. Although those treasures could not directly help him break through to the seventh level, they also became part of his foundation and became a force for his breakthrough to the seventh level.

To be honest, without the support of those goddess sisters, if Chen had to rely on himself to accumulate resources, he felt that if he wanted to break through to the seventh level, it would probably take him thousands of years to accumulate the foundation for a breakthrough.

But after reaching the middle level of the seventh rank, he had not made any progress for a long time. Although this might be just a nap for other gods, it was a considerable period of time for Chen.

Chen knew that this was because the foundation he had accumulated was almost exhausted, and the most fundamental reason was that the resources in this world were no longer sufficient to support him to continue breaking through.

Neither the seventh-order treasures born in this world nor the extraordinary knowledge passed down from generation to generation are of any help to him. Simple hard training is useful for the seventh order, but not of much help.

If you want to continue to break through to a higher level, you have to leave this world and go to chaos to find new opportunities.

After Chen told Irene about the problems he encountered, Irene said proudly:

"In fact, I encountered the same problem as you, but I encountered it when I was at the upper level of the seventh rank. So it seems that your potential is even greater than mine, Xiaochen."

"As expected of my son, he is indeed better than me."

As soon as she finished speaking, Irene appeared in Chen's spiritual world. With a thought, she turned Chen's spiritual world into an environment exactly the same as the seventh floor of heaven. Then she sat on a swing, stretched out her snow-white jade feet, swayed gently, and waited for Chen's arrival with a smile.

"It took me a long time to figure it out. It wasn't me, it was the world. The world's foundation wasn't enough to support me in breaking through. I was already the strongest in the world, and no one could tell me what the next level would be. At the time, the road ahead seemed completely dark, and I had no idea how to proceed."

"Mom, I'm dying of despair."

"Later, I began to frantically research various methods to break through, researching the God-annihilating Tool and the magical energy of the origin of the world. After spending countless hours, I finally found a path to a higher level."

“Thinking about that time, I was really crazy!”

But Xiaochen, if you are luckier than me and have the help of plug-ins, that dimensional chat group is definitely the creation of the eighth-level immortal, but as long as I am here, even if that dimensional chat group is harmful, it will never hurt you.

Irene said silently in her heart that the dimensional chat group was more complicated than Chen had imagined. Even Irene could not figure out its principle for the time being.

"So fate will never disappoint anyone who has hope and is willing to work hard. Mom, I'm proud of you."

"Xiaochen, I'm proud of you too."

Chen suddenly appeared behind Irene, gently pushing the swing bench from behind and greeting her:

"Mom, why did you suddenly come to my spiritual world?"

"Isn't it okay? I'll be living here from now on. When you were little, you didn't dare to swing on the swing by yourself, so I held you. Now it's your turn to hold me while we swing."

Irene, who was wearing a white dress, spoke cheerfully, turned around with a smile as beautiful as a flower and asked in a soft voice.

When entering Chen's spiritual world, Irene did not encounter any obstacles. She felt extremely warm in her heart because of her son's unreserved trust and attachment. This was a feeling she had not experienced in countless years since she was born.

She was probably the first and last master to enter Xiaochen's spiritual world.

As expected, I am the most important in Xiaochen's heart. Irene's mouth corners curled up slightly like a little fox who stole a chicken, revealing a happy and moving smile, and she laughed in her heart.

"Mom, what are you grinning about?"

"Foolish Xiaochen, you're just grinning. I'm doing this to protect your safety. When you step into the Primal Chaos, you'll likely encounter powerful enemies with strange and unpredictable tactics. I'm the last line of defense to protect your soul."

Irene explained fiercely with a stern face.

Compared to Xiaochen's body, Irene still feels that it is safer to live in Xiaochen's spiritual world.

Because this is where the Lord's soul is located, compared to spending a long time consuming the Lord's origin, the faster and easier way to defeat the Lord is to target his soul.

(PS: Brothers, I always think I am a very serious person. Everyone who knows me knows that words like pervert are slanderous).

288. [The Waters of Eastern Shenzhou Are a Bit Deep]

Chen was able to break through to the seventh level in just over a thousand years, and the support from the goddess sisters was indispensable.

Irene and Nyako only strengthened his talent, which was equivalent to giving him a chance to transcend, but whether he could transcend depended on his own ability.

Otherwise, my mother wouldn't be proud of him.

The classes in this world have basically become solidified, with the major pantheons at the top, controlling the vast majority of high-level cultivation resources.

Dongfang is lucky. If he has extraordinary talent, he may have the opportunity to join a famous sect.

But it is difficult in the West. Your ancestors have not produced any great heroes, you have not inherited the bloodline of ancient kings and gods, and you are not favored by the gods. No matter how talented you are, you will be buried in the vast sea of ​​people.

Because the West first looks at background and then talent.

This rule applies not only to ordinary people, but also to the extraordinary world.

If you are lucky enough to be discovered by magicians, demons or other non-human races, you will have to sign harsh and unequal treaties before you have the opportunity to set foot in the extraordinary.

Although the relationship between the Gremory family and their master is very good and they are as close as family, this is only an exception among the demon clan. The followers subdued by other demon nobles are really just their slaves and will be pushed out to take the blame at critical moments.

Although the Eastern land seems to be ruled by the Mount Sumeru God system, the strength and foundation of Buddhism and Taoism are no less than that of the Mount Sumeru God system.

Even Indra, the ancient god of creation, has become the guardian god of Buddhism. From this point alone, we can get a glimpse of the essence of Buddhism and Taoism.

After achieving the seventh level, Chen also briefly investigated the forces in the Eastern Land. He was simply shocked. You guys are really trying to survive!

The Xumi Mountain Divine Realm is located in the Himalayas. Buddhism and the Xumi Mountain pantheon have long been united. With the Himalayas as their base, they radiate their influence westwards to compete with the Indian pantheon for resources and beliefs, and eastwards to compete with Taoism for the blessed lands of China.

Taoism occupies the eastern part of the Shenzhou continent, while Buddhism and the Mount Xumi pantheon occupy the west. The power of Taoism and the Shenzhou gods subtly occupies two-thirds, and Buddhism and Indra only occupy one-third where resources are relatively poor. However, it is the Mount Xumi pantheon that is famous throughout the world, and Buddhism's reputation is not very prominent.

The reason why the gods in the land of China are so low-key that no one knows about them is that most of the sixth-level gods have basically given up the foundation and origin of their natural divinity in the past tens of thousands of years, and turned to practice the method of practicing qi to become immortals that was jointly created and completed by generations of Taoist ancestors and masters. In the Far East, this system is called the system of immortal arts.

It is said that the seventh-level ruler of Shenzhou also practiced the method of refining qi to become an immortal.

Chen paid some price and obtained a magic method that directly reached the sixth level. It was indeed a cultivation system that was not inferior to Western magic, and even surpassed it in some aspects.

Dongfang doesn't seem to care that the magic is obtained by other powerful people. It's more like he is happy to see it happen.

As for whether there is a magic method leading to the seventh level, Chen thinks that there is most likely no such method. Even if there is, it should only be in its infancy. However, the fact that many sixth-level gods can abandon their divine foundations and practice magic is enough to prove that the magic system is extraordinary.

At least it can allow the gods whose potential has reached its limit to take a step further. Otherwise, how could the gods be willing to give up their divine foundation? You have to know that the strongest race in this world is still born gods after all.

This is also the reason why Chen did not choose to travel to the East. The water in this world is much deeper than what is shown in the original book.

Taoism has definitely produced more than one master who has achieved the seventh level by relying on the immortal magic system. Otherwise, it would be impossible for it to suppress the joint efforts of Buddhism and Indra in the land of China.

Although this breakthrough is completely impossible to replicate, it is enough to make the immortal system a cultivation system that is on par with magic.

However, the Taoist and Shenzhou gods are too cowardly. There is no trace of them at all in the original novel, and they have no intersection with other pantheons at all.

I have a low-key attitude, as if saying, "I won't bother you, and you don't bother me either."

The only ones who know something about them are probably their two old rivals, Indra and Buddhism.

Therefore, Chen's handling of the Shenzhou Continent was also a headache. After all, he still had some feelings for the Shenzhou in this world.

Moreover, Chen can also guarantee that among all the major pantheons, only Shenzhou will not be won over by Lezevim. Compared with the barbarism of the West, Shenzhou has always had more courtesy, integrity, benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness. They will never cooperate with terrorists.

What's more, after agreeing to let Shiva join the Eternal Pantheon, he knew that Indra and Buddhism were destined to become his opponents.

Indra and Shiva are enemies among enemies, and this cause and effect has been entangled for countless years. If Shiva can kill the other party, his strength may be further improved. This is also in line with the Eastern Taoist saying of killing the enemy to enlighten the way.

The entanglement between the two of them is really too deep. Even if Shiva can let it go for his sake, Indra cannot let it go. One of the two must die to settle the feud.

As for Shenzhou, Chen's idea is more inclined to form an alliance with it, and there is no need to make an enemy of it. Even if he has his mother as the ultimate killer as the last insurance, it is impossible for his mother to take care of everyone in such a battle among dozens of masters. He also does not want to see his good friend who he has known for many years die.

The number of masters of the Taoist sect and the gods in Shenzhou combined is definitely above double digits. This combat power is too huge. Chen's requirement for them is to stop the masters of Buddhism.

As long as the Xumi Mountain God system is dealt with, Buddhism will naturally collapse.

Anyway, the two families are old rivals. When the Eternal God System wins the final victory and lures them with the benefits of other worlds, I believe they will definitely make the right choice.

Buddhism values ​​profit, and although Taoism advocates a life of purity and abstinence, not all sects pursue a life of asceticism.

What a headache! The key is that he and Shenzhou have no intersection, and there is no basis for trust between the two sides, especially since he is a demon king. So, does he really have to go to Shenzhou?

When Chen was traveling around the world, he didn't consider Shenzhou because he knew that he had demonic blood and was afraid that he would be killed by the Taoist sword masters if he was not careful.

The demon clan has never considered developing business in the eastern land of China because they were scared by the defeats they suffered in the past.

Thinking of this, Chen silently kept the trip to Shenzhou in mind. As for how to win over the gods and Taoists of Shenzhou, Chen felt that he had to do his old business again.

That’s right, it’s just a gigolo.

If he could trick a female seventh-level overlord, Chen felt that forming an alliance would definitely be no problem.

Compared to the major Western pantheons that treat mortals as a source of captivity, ordinary people living in the East are much happier. From time to time, there are young Taoist geniuses and Taoist masters who hate evil and go down the mountain to slay demons and monsters, restoring peace and order to the world and ensuring the survival and safety of ordinary people.
