Chapter 400 - Raging Will of the World
Since ancient times, the sun was considered to be very far from the humans. It was viewed as something that they could not get close to.
Usually, just some strange activity on the surface could affect the blue planet even from such a large distance. For example, the activity of sunspots would cause damage to the magnetic field and various electronic products and appliances on the blue planet.
What was the world inside the sun like? Humans could only use some observation equipment to come to a conclusion that represented their opinion.
Therefore, when Chen Yiming approached the sun for the first time, he didn’t lose his caution.
Just as Chen Yiming was secretly sizing up the inner world of the sun, something strange happened to the half-destroyed body of the devouring demon. The black aura was being burned by an invisible force, and the inner world in its body turned as red as blood.
“Hmm?”
Chen Yiming retracted his gaze and noticed the changes in the devouring demon.
In the blink of an eye, a red figure walked out as if it had undergone a transformation. Its entire body was completely different, and the aura related to the black tide had completely disappeared.
“Whoosh…”
The flame wings on the back of the devouring demon flapped once as if it was still adapting to its new body. A firestorm suddenly blew up in space, burning up everything in its path.
The terrifying temperature was no different from the firestorm that blew up on the surface of the sun from time to time. It even faintly resonated with each other, and the frequency at which the solar flares flickered increased.
“This body of flames was obtained from an ordinary star. It doesn’t have as much potential as the previous body of darkness, but there are almost no restrictions on it.”
“Hahahaha…”
There was a hint of regret on the devouring demon’s face, but it quickly turned into a smile. It laughed heartily as it broke free from its shackles.
As soon as he finished speaking,
the space seemed to have frozen. The world power of the devouring demon was enhanced by an invisible force, and the area Chen Yiming was in changed from the surface of the sun to the interior of the sun.
It was similar to falling from the space around the blue planet to the surface of the blue planet.
Not long after, the surrounding temperature quickly rose to tens of thousands of degrees Celsius.
This was a world of flames. Even though he was holding his breath, the scorching flames lit up all the cells in his body along with the power of the world that was everywhere.
In addition, there was a sense of hostility coming towards Chen Yiming.
There were flames as long as dragons that were more than thousands of kilometers in length. There were not just one or two of them, but dozens or even hundreds of them, circling above his head.
Under his feet, more solar flares flickered. Terrifying electromagnetic radiation erupted, turning into invisible blades that wreaked havoc in space.
The sun seemed to have become angry due to the intrusion of the outsiders, thus changing the frequency of its activities.
At this moment, the devouring demon finally stopped laughing and continued, “Human, I admit that you’re very powerful. If we were at the same level, I would easily have been crushed by you.”
“However, the strength of the devouring demons does not lie entirely in combat. Now, do you feel the hostility of the world’s will towards you? I have an unlimited supply of the world’s power here, and the more you struggle, the more the world’s consciousness will be hostile to you.”
“Do you regret it? It’s useless even if you do. I don’t know if you’re bold or really stupid to chase after a devouring demon.”
Chen Yiming narrowed his eyes and realized that it was just as the devouring demon had said.
The devouring demon had used some special method to transform into a native creature of the inner world of the sun. Although it was not blessed by the world’s will, the world’s will was not hostile to it.
On the other hand, he was equivalent to an outsider. Perhaps the devouring demon had secretly caused him to do something such that after he entered the inner world of the sun, the hostility from the entire world was focused on him.
At the same time, the sun began to react violently, and all kinds of phenomena appeared frequently.
…
“The sun’s activity has changed visibly. Did the battle break out again?”
The entire blue planet was shaking. The sun’s activity was not a joke. It would have a direct impact on the blue planet. This was completely different from the indirect influence of the other eight planets.
It could be said that in front of the sun, the blue planet was like an ordinary person facing a giant. Even the tremors caused by the giant’s footsteps could injure ordinary people.
If an ordinary person was unlucky and was hit by a falling object, their life would be at risk.
“The frequency of the sun’s activity has exceeded all the records from the past. In particular, the number of sunspots has increased by dozens or even hundreds of times.”
“Stop, quickly shut down the equipment. We have to take protective measures. Contact the factory to speed up the production of a batch of simple isolation devices.”
Countless laboratories were in chaos, and the progress of the space plan was also affected. A large number of equipment was turned off and moved within the range of protective devices.
At this moment, the hulls of the spaceships were of great use.
Because the black technology materials provided the best form of protection, as long as they moved into range before the influence of the sun’s activity reached the blue planet, the progress of the space plan would only be affected for a short period of time.
This was already a blessing in disguise.
“Mr. Chen.”
The leader of the dire wolves had a serious expression.
It did not know much about the huge mouth on the blockade and did not know about the existence of the devouring demon race at all. However, it still had a lot of understanding of the world’s will.
In the history of the dark forest world, there were many secrets left behind. One could not barge into an unfamiliar and powerful world. It was very easy for the world’s will to target them.
This was especially true for intruders. They were powerful creatures to begin with. Even if they expressed their goodwill clearly, they would still be targeted by all kinds of invisible forces.
Now, the abnormal changes in the sun were very similar to the scene in the records.
“Everyone, calm down and don’t panic. Chen Yiming has returned unharmed from the two attacks by the black tide from outer space. Clearly, he has some mysterious ability and is under the protection of the heavens. The sun is just a star…”
At the international video conference, the top leader of the Daxia Kingdom spoke to suppress the chaos.
In fact, the stars were the most terrifying existences in the solar system. However, there were as many stars in the universe as there were hairs on a cow. Humans had estimated that there were tens of billions of stars.
It was rumored that the black tide that could dominate outer space was not something that a star could compare to. A star should be a toy for it to play with and a tool for extracting energy.
This was in line with human’s thoughts about advanced civilizations.
Of course, there was something else that he did not say. No one knew how much power the black tide had mobilized to invade the blue planet. It was just a simple comparison, and there were undoubtedly many mistakes.
Then, the top leader of the Daxia Kingdom changed the topic. “All the ordinary people will temporarily enter the spaceships to hide. Let’s see how the situation changes next…”
The leaders of the various countries also calmed down and reached a consensus on the spot.
If the situation really changed in an irreversible direction, such as the intense activity of the sun, to the extent that it could cross the distance of light years and kill the lives on the blue planet, humans would have to escape in advance.
…
Near a meteorite that was like a floating island on Jupiter, a hole appeared in the meteorite, and the head of the divine turtle stuck out. It turned to look in the direction of the sun.
“What a powerful world consciousness. It’s even stronger than the one in the dark forest world. Furthermore, it’s purely elemental and has a lot of attack power.”
The divine turtle recalled that many, many years ago, before the black tide invaded the dark forest world, the will of the world was something that no living creature could disobey.
For example, if a powerful creature killed weak creatures without restraint on the continent, the world’s will would secretly note it down. After reaching a certain number of strikes, it would send down punishment.
It was also because it was not completely disorderly that the dark forest world where the law of the jungle prevailed did not self-destruct. Even if it was a demon disaster that happened once every 1,000 years, the demon god would eventually be sealed away.
“Unfortunately, we can’t go back anymore.”
The divine turtle shook its huge head helplessly.
Ever since the black tide invaded, the world’s will had first been defeated and hidden away. Then, under the guidance of the goddess, the terrifying creatures split it into five foundation bases and set up a world-level formation.
That battle had exhausted too much of the dark forest world’s foundation. It could be said that it had injured its foundation.
In reality, the world had already become very weak. For example, materials suitable for the cultivation of living creatures in the world could not be controlled and flowed through the space-travel passage to the world on the blue planet.
This was absolutely impossible before there was a problem with the world’s will. This was the main reason why the martial arts on the blue planet had been rejuvenated.
…
In the desert in Africa, at the entrance of the secret underground palace, the stone statue suddenly exploded into rubble, and the entrance to the stone passage collapsed with a bang.
It was the same for the underground space connected to the stone passage. For some reason, everything turned into dust.
This included many stone jars, stone slabs, and the surrounding pillars, and everything else that was connected via the chains.
The ground had collapsed in this area to form a large rectangular pit. A sandstorm blew past and wiped out all traces of it.
The only base left on the blue planet by the supreme will had disappeared just like that.
At the same time, the Pacific Ocean was shaken up a few times. A floating island covered in many black tentacles rushed out of the sea, then rushed into the sky and quickly disappeared into space.
“The war weapon!”
At this moment, the people on the blue planet were undergoing a mass migration. A large number of ordinary people from all over the world were being transported to the Daxia Kingdom, preparing to board the spaceships built by the various countries or to take refuge in them.
Countless people looked up at the sky after being alarmed and saw the war weapon flying away and disappearing.
“The heavens are blessing the humans. The moon’s blockade has just been broken not long ago. Now, even the last threat, the war weapon, has left on its own. It even seems like it was running away.”
The war weapon and the blockade were seen by countless people as two invisible hands that had locked down the blue planet from the inside out.
At this moment, countless people exclaimed.
Even the impact of the intense activity of the sun seemed to be disappearing. If not for the fact that their lives were in danger, some people would have planned to celebrate on the spot.
However, many martial arts experts had questions about this.
On one side was Chen Yiming, and on the other was the huge mouth that represented the black tide. Could Chen Yiming really win?
There were many suspicious points here. It seemed like no matter which side won in the end, they would target the war weapon. Strange, strange.
…
No matter how the other parts of the solar system changed, Chen Yiming and the devouring demon, who were facing each other in the sun, didn’t care about anything else.
“Huh? The space-travel barrier is becoming thicker.”
As the sun became more active, Chen Yiming, who had a spat-manipulation talent, keenly sensed the world’s will that was trying to seal off this space.
“How big of a grudge is this? Previously, I clearly didn’t want to enter the inner world of the sun. It was the devouring demon who forcefully brought me in.”
Chen Yiming had pinned the blame on the demon. The other party must have done something.
“The devouring demon seems to have gotten close to the will of the star, so it’s very arrogant.”
“However, it’s not all bad. With such a thick space-travel barrier on the surface of the sun, it’s very difficult for the outside world to notice the spatial fluctuations that appear inside.”
Chen Yiming instantly entered a super perceptive state and could clearly sense the existence of the thick space-travel barrier.
The devouring demon and the will of the sun had made a miscalculation. Not only did the Space Anchor talent have the ability to locate its target, but its attack on the space-travel barrier was also unbelievably powerful.
If Chen Yiming wanted to, the space anchor that he threw out could easily break through the barrier and let him escape. In other words, this basic space-manipulation ability would definitely not be able to stop him.
At some point, “Kill!”
Chen Yiming controlled the space anchor and threw it at the devouring demon, leaving an imperceptible mark on the barrier of the inner world in its body.
In the next moment, he traveled through space and threw out a punch.
“Boom!”
The inner world of the sun seemed to have collapsed from Chen Yiming’s punch. The projection of the power of the world within a radius of 1,000 kilometers was completely shattered by his punch.
Before his fist could really hit the devouring demon, the terrifying pressure had already deformed its back. Its arrogant face looked like it was about to suffocate.
“He actually hid a trump card that he had space-manipulation abilities!”
The devouring demon seemed to be dumbfounded and stood rooted to the ground without any reaction.
It was already unbelievable that Chen Yiming had a monster-like body. Now that he had used such a fast spatial ability, it was even more dumbfounded.
How could such a genius with so many powerful talents appear in the world where the black tide had invaded?
“Boom!”
The inner world of the sun shook as though there was a thunderstorm.
Chen Yiming’s actions had severely challenged the will of the world. Outsiders had to be killed!
However, no matter how angry the world’s will was, it was too late for it to turn a huge amount of the power of the world into a projection in this area.
A figure shuttled through the air and punched the devouring demon, then hit the inner world in its body.
Its flaming body turned into black ashes and extinguished on the spot, leaving behind only its inner world. It turned into a flaming meteorite and fell deeper into the sun.
The next moment.
On the way, the devouring demon’s body reformed.
If the inner world was not destroyed, those at this level would not truly be killed. It would only be using up their energy. Coincidentally, with the sun providing support for it, the power of the world was almost inexhaustible.
“Huff!”
The devouring demon flapped its wings of flames and came to a stop. The power of the world turned into long flames that surrounded its body.
At the same time, the long flames formed by the world’s will in the sky let out a roar, as if it was preparing to attack the human who dared to provoke the world’s will at any moment.
“Human, this world of flames is my home ground. I’m immortal here, hehehe!”
After recovering from the shock of his space-manipulation ability, the devouring demon started to laugh wildly.
It did not believe that this human could use up the power of the world accumulated within the sun.
That was impossible. The stars were not something that planets could compare to. The power of the world that was transformed at every moment far exceeded the consumption by its activity.
The laughter continued.
“Boom!”
Another punch landed.
The devouring demon was laughing wildly on the surface, but it was secretly preparing to counterattack at any moment.
However, the long flames that surrounded it and could pounce on Chen Yiming at any moment were useless. Another punch tore through space and exploded the devouring demon’s body from behind, landing on its inner world.
The inner world changed direction and flew back.
“This… this is too fast. What level of space-manipulation ability is this?”
After forming its body again, the counterattack came too fast, and the devouring demon could no longer laugh.
It realized that the space-manipulation ability this human had was not something that needed a long preparation time.
Instead, it was almost instantaneous. It was also silently targeted, and it was almost impossible to dodge.
“If the punches keep landing on my inner world, it will explode sooner or later!”
When the devouring demon suddenly realized this, panic appeared on its face. It was no longer as arrogant as before.
At this moment, the anger of the will of the sun subsided.
Hundreds of fire dragons opened their mouths and bit at Chen Yiming. The space-travel barrier around them thickened, completely sealing off the area he was in.
The power of the world naturally carried a trace of the power of space, and the inner world was created because of this.
However, there was no way to break the invisible line connecting Chen Yiming to the space anchor.
In other words, as long as the devouring demon was still within the range of his perception, Chen Yiming could teleport again with just a thought.
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
Two shocking explosions rang out in succession.
The first one had a much larger range and strength. Hundreds of flame dragons attacked a single point, causing a circle to spread out on the surface of the sun and a firestorm to sweep through a distance of a million kilometers.
The blue planet had a diameter of more than 10,000 kilometers. A single flame dragon could easily destroy the blue planet. Jupiter had a diameter of more than 100,000 kilometers. If it landed in such a large-scale firestorm, even it could not escape the fate of being destroyed.
However, such terrifying solar activity was sealed off and contained within the space barrier.
The intense activity of the sun observed from the outside world would not affect the other areas of the solar system or have any serious impact.
The subsequent explosion erupted in the devouring demon’s body. Its body exploded for the third time, and its inner world flew out in another direction.
“F*ck! The inner world must have been tampered with. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been hit every time.”
This time, the devouring demon’s heart skipped a beat. It had a bad feeling.
It no longer wasted the power of the world to reform its body. Instead, all its power was focused on its inner world, and it adopted a defensive stance just like the previous demon god.
This was the world of flames, and there was an endless supply of the power of the world to replenish its energy for it to recover. If you have the guts, break through my inner world! The devouring demon had no choice but to do this.
If it left the range of the sun, the inner world still needed to continuously consume the power of the world. The attacks it faced would sooner or later destroy it.
“Do you think I can’t do anything to you just because you’ve adopted a defensive stance?”
Seeing this, Chen Yiming snorted and instantly teleported towards it. He punched, kicked, shouldered, and elbowed the inner world of the devouring demon away from the sun.
The method was very simple. He only needed to use the space anchor to pierce through the thick space-travel barrier created by the will of the sun, then send the inner world of the devouring demon flying.
“Die! Die! Die!”
The will of the world appeared in the sky, causing Chen Yiming to be on guard.
Under his feet, a funnel-shaped vortex was forming, covering half the sun. The vortex led straight to the core of the sun, and an angry eye seemed to have opened inside.
“Gasp! The will of the sun seems to have a bad temper. Didn’t I just mess with it once? Is there a need to use such a big move to target a small fry at the fusion realm like me?”
As he thought of this, a terrifying suction force appeared.
With Chen Yiming’s current physical strength, he had no way of resisting.
Of course, he did not panic. He still had the space anchor, so he could just teleport away.
Just as Chen Yiming was about to retract the space anchor and reposition himself, he saw that the devouring demon had already reformed its body. Its flaming wings flapped.
However, this was completely useless.
The world’s will was really angry this time. It was not a joke. The funnel-shaped vortex targeted everything within its range. Even the firestorm that spread out could not escape the fate of being sucked back in.
“Your father, the world’s will, doesn’t seem to care about you anymore.”
Chen Yiming smiled.
As soon as he finished speaking, with a thought, he teleported to the top of the devouring demon’s head and kicked it towards the funnel-shaped vortex. At the same time, it was pulled down by a terrifying suction force and fell inside.
“The core of the sun is at a high temperature of tens of millions of degrees. You can’t escape, but I can travel through space. I wonder if the world’s consciousness will swallow you up or help you to become stronger?”
“However, the will of the sun has a super hot temper. It might not even recognize its own son, let alone someone like you who has been transformed by some unknown method.”
Just like that, Chen Yiming watched as the devouring demon fell into the funnel-shaped vortex. He retracted the space anchor and traveled through space a few times before returning to his previous position far above the surface of the sun.
At this moment, the funnel-shaped vortex began to shrink, and the devouring demon was undoubtedly swallowed into the core of the sun.
