Chapter 508: Three Parts Demonic, Seven Parts Dao

"It can’t be!" Jian Wujie was truly shocked today; how could Ten Thousand Swords Piercing the Heart not have killed this guy?

If Old Li were still around, he would surely laugh and answer, "Jian Wujie! I’ve battled with you for most of my life, and I know you better than I know myself. When I first went mad, I definitely consumed the demon blood from Dai Qingtian. As we fought, you would surely unleash your Ten Thousand Swords Piercing the Heart, just perfectly providing me the opportunity to strike down the demonic heart. However… this demonic heart is not easy to kill!"

Li Hui began to retract his energy, transitioning from extreme arrogance to extreme restraint within three breaths, his expression becoming indifferent as he regarded his enemies.

At that moment, the back of the silver snake bracelet lit up with thirty-three black patterns, which instantly transformed into golden lines, having accumulated formidable talisman power.

"Annihilate!"

Just a single word, and three Annihilating Thunderbolt darts appeared.

The Yuan Chen Heavenly Mansion’s most powerful and brutal weapons were now being used by Li Hui at close range. No matter how great the talents and Dao heirs, or what Legal forms they possessed, they would all be destroyed, as a radius of three hundred li was instantly turned to nothingness.

So ruthless, merciless against enemies and even more so against himself; this is the essence of the demonic heart, sparing no expense!

Without any sound, everything began to dissolve.

Dai Qingtian and the others were stunned; such a terrifying Together in Ruin! Had they known this kid would become so extreme and difficult after going mad, they never would have come today.

Li Hui maximized the power of his Personal Artifact to block the impact, combining the Heart Talisman and the talisman power from the silver snake bracelet to raise thousands of green walls, seeing who could last longer amidst the destruction!

Dai Qingtian and the others didn’t sit idly by; they immediately released their magical treasures for protection, not daring to hold anything back as they revealed all their cards to resist the shock. However, as they watched their magical treasures waste away and their clothes and shoes turn into bubbles, they panicked, nearly losing their minds!

"Run!" Lin Qingtian reacted quickly, swallowing a dazzling pill, and his form instantly transformed into an indescribable void, escaping from the annihilating force.

Jian Wujie spewed blood, forcefully slapped his dantian, releasing a burst of seven-colored sword aura, merging his body and sword to vanish without a trace despite falling to mid-stage Bosa.

Dai Qingtian shattered her Legal form, causing it to collapse into a river; she leapt into the river to teleport away, terrified to linger for even a moment.

The three outstanding peers, who had arrived determined to hunt down Li Hui, ended up fleeing in embarrassment, stripped bare. While their diminished power was nothing compared to the urgent matter of the demonic heart’s suppression over the heart of Dao!

The terror of the demonic heart lies precisely here, invisibly influencing the enemy’s heart of Dao and creating irreparable cracks. It had the most profound effect on Jian Wujie, whose rebirth should have made him bold and robust, leaving no room for cowardice! But today, he faltered, retreating to a safe place and standing dazed. He wanted to turn back and fight again, yet his hand trembled around the sword…

When the power of the Annihilating Thunderbolt passed, Li Hui slumped to the ground, panting and laughing for half a breath: "These three are no longer a threat! My Personal Artifact is about to be ruined; such vast talisman power couldn’t stop the impact. In the end, I only survived thanks to the treasure cabinet and the Kunpeng decree. This Annihilating Thunderbolt is truly terrifying."

As soon as he spoke, Li Hui collapsed on the ground and coughed up blood.

This was not his own blood but the demonic blood he had previously swallowed, which almost fused with his heart to catalyze demonic intent. He had to thank Jian Wujie for using the killing move to trigger the Ten Thousand Swords Piercing the Heart; the expended demon blood had exhausted much energy to repair the damage, delaying the fusion significantly. Fortunately, he managed to regain his senses just in time to expel it.

"Cough, cough…" After expelling the demon blood, Li Hui released the little ball and instructed, "I need to purify myself. Use the treasures from the Kunpeng decree to restore the Qian Kun Corrected Blood Talisman. Once repaired, apply it to me quickly; it may be the chance to resolve the troubles caused by the heart of Dao becoming demons. Let’s start! The enemies will return soon; we don’t have much time left."

"The Qian Kun Corrected Blood Talisman?" The little ball’s eyes brightened: "Indeed, a fully formed blood talisman can become the Qian Kun Corrected Blood Talisman—it’s a perfect remedy, able to burn the blood and eliminate impurities, purifying the entire Dao blood."

Li Hui closed his eyes and added, "There are six pieces of Lang Huan jade stone in the Kunpeng decree that can be used."

As the Ink Demon, the little ball’s specialty lies in talisman-making, quickly preparing the required materials to repair the jade symbols, marveling, "Where did you find so many ruined jade symbols? The talisman patterns look quite ancient, lacking many postnatal changes, completely formed from Heavenly Treasures and Earthly Treasures; with just a slight adjustment, their efficacy can be greatly increased."

The treasure cabinet consumed spiritual energy to support the Seize the Day Talisman; while not as terrifying as the one hundred thirty times time flow, ninety times was sufficient.

The Qi of Taiqing circulated within his body nine times, and Li Hui’s complexion improved slightly.

The damage was far heavier than expected; the penetrating power of the Annihilating Thunderbolt was too strong and invaded everywhere, severely injuring his foundation. Recovery would be quite troublesome, as he needed to bypass the acupoints and properly adjust his meridians.

He sat for two hours, which under the ninety times time flow equaled sitting for one hundred eighty hours, alleviating most of the injuries; however, the remaining injuries were seriously problematic, bringing a sense of crisis—he could sense the enemies were not far from this location.

"Done!" The little ball was drenched in sweat, the task had been considerable.

A total of two hundred thirty-nine Qian Kun Corrected Blood Talismans were repaired. Due to their extreme age, each could only be used once before becoming useless, and they had to be deployed simultaneously to achieve maximum effect.

"Quickly!"

The jade symbols rose into the air, circling around Li Hui, causing him to feel his blood boiling.

The main function of the Qian Kun Corrected Blood Talisman was to help the cultivator temporarily elevate one or several levels of cultivation, while also purifying and cleansing the blood; it truly was the master of blood talismans!

"Repel the Demons!"

With the aid of the talismans, Li Hui purified the demonic intent, and with a wave of his hand, unleashed thirty-two Dao-enriching Heavenly Bottles. The operation of the Qi of Taiqing within him suddenly accelerated—faster and stronger.

It was precisely because of such rare treasures that Old Li was confident he could break the shackles of his lifetime, allowing the heart of Dao to gain the upper hand, striving to suppress the demonic heart and thus repel the demons and return to the Dao.

The effect was very noticeable; the aftereffects of going mad gradually faded, and his injuries recovered by ninety percent, leaving just the final ten percent for him to be unharmed.

Li Hui abruptly opened his eyes and let all the Qian Kun Corrected Blood Talismans dissolve and disperse into the wind, choosing to withdraw his power early and ignore the influence of the demonic heart, flicking his hand to unleash another Annihilating Thunderbolt.

"Watch out!" A scream echoed from a distance. This time, Li Hui did not remain within the wave of destruction; he used the Ideal Body and void escape to narrowly evade.

"Boom!" The sound could only be heard on the edge of the destruction zone—the center’s Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind were all obliterated, and any Myriad Forms Stage cultivator within would suffer grave repercussions.

Li Hui observed from afar, sighing, "The enemies chose this moment to come; three parts demonic, seven parts Dao—over time, the danger intensifies. Frankly, I’m confident in achieving two parts demonic and eight parts Dao, but the cost of missing the mark by a hair’s breadth cannot be measured by logical means."

A group of cultivators arrived, and before they even revealed themselves, they already took a severe hit, gritting their teeth in anger as they quickly organized their teams to defend against the attack.

These cultivators were all exceptional; united, they resisted the Annihilating Thunderbolt’s impact. Only three fell due to their unpreparedness, while the others gritted their teeth and held on, glaring at Li Hui from a distance…
