Every impoverished scholar, every person of humble origins with limited initial strength, harbors a dream: to venture out, achieve success, and ultimately return home in glory.
This dream sustains countless individuals through their arduous struggles.
Returning home in finery to show off is a subconscious mindset. Even though Wei Chen is now so powerful that he no longer needs to prove anything, that desire to flaunt still exists within him.
Gods also possess human emotions. The Star Power Physical Deification is no different from ordinary people; they merely have attained eternal life. In terms of feelings, they are indistinguishable from regular humans.
Wei Chen's emotions are rich and complex. Bringing the Army back to the Soul World is no longer solely about rescuing the Peach Blossom Sect from crisis; it has become an act of showing off...
Sometimes, when reflecting on this behavior, it seems somewhat ridiculous. Yet, if you think deeply about it, Wei Chen's mindset reveals that he has not entirely transcended the mundane. After all, we are all human; why should one strive to be above it all?
Wei Chen cannot completely abandon worldly fame and status.
The Soul World is the last territory he must conquer. Perhaps only after mastering the Soul World can he truly suppress that desire for ostentation.
In fact, Wei Chen is not alone in this sentiment; the Demon Lotus Emperor shares similar thoughts!
During his time at Thunder Sound Temple, the Demon Lotus Emperor felt an urgent need to make a name for himself there. Unfortunately, in order to preserve the Buddhist teachings and ensure that Dazhi Zhi, the true practitioner of Buddhism, would wholeheartedly accept him, Wei Chen chose to destroy Thunder Sound Temple, denying the Demon Lotus Emperor any chance to shine.
The Demon Lotus Emperor emerged from Thunder Sound Temple, cultivated in the Nine Immortal Realm, and eventually made his way to Hua Xia World, where he forged his own brilliance.
In that lifetime, the Demon Lotus Emperor reached extraordinary heights. Although he ultimately failed, his influence in Hua Xia World has yet to fade.
In some ordinary households, parents frighten their crying children by saying, "Stop crying! If you keep it up, the Demon Lotus Emperor will come and take you away..."
It was a slander against the Demon Lotus Emperor, but also a recognition of his strength.
The Demon Lotus Emperor eagerly hoped to showcase his power in the place he once called home.
Although he currently did not possess much power, with the Nuwa Stone, he was already invincible in the Hua Xia World.
A vast army crossed the barrier and entered the Hua Xia World.
On the enormous Divine Vessel, the Demon Lotus Emperor stood on the deck of the Warship, gazing at his familiar homeland, unable to hold back his tears.
"Wei Chen, this time, you have to let me shine. Otherwise, I won't let this go," the Demon Lotus Emperor threatened Wei Chen fiercely.
Wei Chen fully understood the emotions of the Demon Lotus Emperor and had no intention of competing for the spotlight.
He patted the Demon Lotus Emperor's shoulder and smiled, "This is your trump card. You can take your Army wherever you want. Yan Qiqi and I will help you refine the Heart of the World in Hua Xia World. Since you came from Hua Xia World, you are familiar with it. I believe your potential can control the Heart of the World and make you the Boundary God of Hua Xia World."
The Demon Lotus Emperor nodded vigorously and said solemnly, "In other worlds, I have no confidence. But in Hua Xia World, this is my territory, and I have confidence. I owe you a lot already; there's no need to mention it."
"Why say such things? If it weren't for you giving me the Demon Lotus Heart back then, I might have been dead long ago," Wei Chen replied with a smile.
"My help to you back then pales in comparison to what you're doing for me now," the Demon Lotus Emperor said lightly.
Wei Chen responded, "It can't be that way. You helped me rise; without you, I would be nothing. I might have even died during the Sea Tribe Army's assault on Cloud Spirit Sect."
Thinking about it, the Demon Lotus Emperor mused, a man should not be so constrained by trivial matters.
Wei Chen transferred control of the army to the Demon Lotus Emperor. He and Yan Qiqi flew to the top of the Hua Xia World’s sky and began to refine the Heart of the World.
“Qiqi, how is it? The Hua Xia World and the Nine Immortal Realm are basically on the same level, with only half a tier difference at most. Is it difficult to refine the Heart of the World here?” Wei Chen asked Yan Qiqi.
Yan Qiqi nodded and replied, “There is some difficulty, but I already possess Divine Power, and I still have Stellar Power within me. Plus, the strength of Hua Xia World is not as formidable as that of the Nine Immortal Realm, so comparatively, it should be somewhat easier. However, I will need to destroy some buildings in Hua Xia World to weaken its soul strength; that way, my efforts will yield better results.”
After hearing Yan Qiqi's words, Wei Chen immediately communicated with the Demon Lotus Emperor through thought. “Demon Lotus Emperor, what do you plan to do?”
“I will completely annihilate those from the Cloud Spirit Sect who previously besieged me,” the Demon Lotus Emperor replied.
Wei Chen smiled wryly. “Do as you wish. I only ask that you try to destroy some powerful buildings or even some majestic mountains. You can command those at the Martial Emperor Realm to take them down; that will help us gather the Heart of the World from Hua Xia World more quickly.”
“As for revenge, you can handle that yourself. A man should know when to act and when to refrain. Now that we have reached this level of power, we should relax our hearts a bit. Why kill unnecessarily? In those days, you and those who besieged you were merely on opposing sides; there’s no clear right or wrong. Even if they were in the wrong, try to kill as few as possible. Often, killing others is also killing yourself. It won’t reduce your anger; instead, it may lead you to lose your reason and become a killing demon. In the end, you would only harm yourself.”
Wei Chen's words were actually what the Demon Lotus Emperor had once told him; now he was merely returning those words back to him.
Whether or not the Demon Lotus Emperor listened was up to him. The hatred from being besieged was not something easily dispelled; those who needed to be killed still had to be dealt with. A gentleman’s revenge is best served after ten years; even after a thousand years, it remains timely. Wei Chen hoped for as little killing as possible; excessive bloodshed was ultimately not a good thing.
Right and wrong have their consequences; seek out those involved directly and avoid harming innocents!
This thought remained unspoken by Wei Chen; he believed that the Demon Lotus Emperor was a wise person who would understand this fundamental point without needing further explanation.
The Demon Lotus Emperor reassured Wei Chen that he had everything under control. With that, Wei Chen decided not to concern himself with the Demon Lotus Emperor's affairs any longer. Whatever the Demon Lotus Emperor chose to do was of no importance to him; all he wanted was to gain control over Hua Xia World. Once the spatial barriers were opened, traveling to Soul World would become much easier. In fact, his current strength was already sufficient to break through the space and allow the Army to enter Soul World, but Wei Chen preferred not to waste energy solving problems with brute force; that was not his style. Once he refined the Heart of the World of Hua Xia World and handed it over to the Demon Lotus Emperor, the latter could easily open the barriers and send the Army into Soul World.
Beneath the Ancient World, the Demon Realm was on par with Nine Immortal Realm and Hua Xia World, but Nine Immortal Realm and Hua Xia World essentially constituted a single world that had been forcibly divided into two. Beneath the Demon Realm and Nine Immortal Realm, there were many Spatial Planes similar to Soul World, and beneath those Spatial Planes, there were numerous others at the same level as Soul World.
If all went smoothly, controlling every world within the Ancient World Spatial Dimension System would be possible. Those who maintained good relations with Wei Chen might even become Boundary Gods in their own right. At that point, the Cosmic Central Space Coordinate System would be solidified, allowing more people to cultivate Stellar Technique, and there would be an increase in those who achieved Star Power Physical Deification.
This would provide a significant boost in confidence against Endless Divine Realm.
Wei Chen's plan was straightforward: first control all Cosmic Center Spatial Planes, then quietly develop Stellar Technique and Ascend to Godhood. Meanwhile, he intended to venture into Endless Divine Realm to reclaim lost artifacts. Only then could he truly confront Endless Divine Realm upon returning to Ancient World.
These moves had to be executed step by step.
Wei Chen and Yan Qiqi were situated at Sky's Pinnacle in Hua Xia World. Wei Chen silently communicated with the stars, familiarizing himself with Stellar Power and methods of controlling celestial bodies. Managing millions of stars was no trivial matter; currently, Wei Chen could control at most two hundred thousand stars. Each additional star required time for communication and connection.
Meanwhile, Yan Qiqi focused intently on absorbing Soul Power from Hua Xia World into the Refining Demon Pot. Her confidence in condensing the Heart of the World of Hua Xia World grew stronger. Wei Chen's endeavors entered a phase of explosive growth and positive feedback; indeed, the role of artifacts played an unmatched part in this surge.
The Demon Lotus Emperor led his Army with unstoppable momentum, demolishing building after building and destroying renowned mountains within Hua Xia World without restraint.
Some old acquaintances emerged from their seclusion and felt a chill upon realizing that the Demon Lotus Emperor had returned.
The strength and influence of this returning Demon Lotus Emperor were unimaginable.
The entire Hua Xia World could hardly muster any resistance; how could they withstand such power combined with the might of three hundred million Army troops from both the Demon Realm and Nine Immortal Realm?
Surrender!
Surrender!
Surrender!
In the Hua Xia World, white flags fluttered everywhere. Whether it was the Cloud Spirit Sect or any other faction, under the threat of the Army, they all surrendered. Before the Army even arrived, they left their buildings and found open spaces, holding up white flags in wait. They understood that the goal of the Demon Realm Army and the Nine Immortal Realm Army was not to kill, but rather to inexplicably cause destruction, demolishing buildings and mountains...
What a damn madness!
Countless people cursed the Demon Lotus Emperor in their hearts, yet outwardly, they were more respectful than ever, their faces filled with sycophantic smiles that made one want to vomit.
The Demon Lotus Emperor listened to Wei Chen's advice and did not go on a killing spree; fewer than a thousand fell at his hands...
Though that number was considerable, compared to the multitude that had once surrounded the Demon Lotus Emperor, it was insignificant.
The Demon Lotus Emperor struggled to control his emotions. When facing his arch-enemies, he fought using the Nuwa Stone, and even though he was covered in wounds, with the Nuwa Stone by his side, he simply could not die. He was an indestructible force, picking off one enemy after another. In battle after battle, the Demon Lotus Emperor shone brightly, and the strong warriors of the Demon Realm Army and Nine Immortal Realm were secretly impressed.
In their minds, although they considered the Demon Lotus Emperor's strength lacking, he fought recklessly without regard for his life. No matter what they did, they could not kill him. Such a person, once he grew stronger, would be utterly terrifying!
With the movements of the Army, Yan Qiqi's progress in gathering the Heart of the World in Hua Xia World accelerated rapidly.
