I Truly Am The Villian Chapter 2423 - 2422: Destroying the Holy Court, Cosmic Dark Matter Prototype
The changes within the Divine Continent's internal world, and the True Fate Embryo—these were what Xu Zimei valued most.
This was the path of his future development.
It was also the core of his future cultivation.
And Xu Zimei had chosen another embryonic form.
One must know that among the objects we currently know of in the Cosmic expanse, there are actually many kinds.
But summed up, there are three categories.
One type is celestial bodies.
For example, the stars we are familiar with, black holes, meteorites, planets, constellations, and the like.
Another type is states of matter: solid, liquid, gas, electromagnetic fields, plasma.
And the third type is dark matter and dark energy.
The next embryonic form Xu Zimei needed to condense was precisely dark matter and dark energy.
Dark matter—this is a kind of substance that is extremely difficult to detect.
It is formless, colorless, and tasteless.
It does not absorb light, does not reflect light, and shows no response to anything at all.
Yet it is like a great hand within the Cosmic expanse.
Harmonizing the operation of everything in the Cosmos.
For instance, within the same galaxy, in different locations, the rotational speeds are different.
This is because different dark matter distributions influence these changes.
Put bluntly, dark matter is the very variation of the Cosmic expanse.
And for Xu Zimei to condense the phantom of dark matter, relying on himself alone was impossible.
He needed to go to the true Cosmic expanse.
To sense true dark matter.
Otherwise, it would be like a blind man groping an elephant, devoid of any logic.
The condensation of True Fate is not something that can be done through arbitrary imagination.
It must accord with reality, condensing from the most fundamental logical foundations.
After finishing the condensation of Destruction, Xu Zimei had originally intended to condense a second Great Dao Seed.
This seed was named Creation.
Because only with Creation in this world can there be Destruction.
Creation and Destruction are in their very nature mutually engendering and mutually counteracting.
But after some thought, Xu Zimei decided to postpone the condensation of the Creation Seed.
He would wait until he used the Divine Continent to break through the constraints of the Hundred Million Daos.
Then he would condense the Seed of Creation into the Divine Continent.
For a black hole, Destruction is the best nourishment.
Whereas for the Divine Continent, Creation is the best nourishment.
The Divine Continent was now thriving, developing toward its best possible form.
At this stage, what the Divine Continent needed was precisely Creation.
On the path toward becoming a large-scale world, Creation is indispensable.
At this moment, Xu Zimei stepped into the air, the majestic power around him overwhelming everything.
The demonic Qi that pierced the Heavens almost blotted out the sky, shrouding the Firmament entirely.
With a casual wave of his hand, the void was cleaved in two.
They only heard him say, "Everyone, this battle concerns each and every one of you."
"I am different from the previous generation's Demon Lord."
"I am not someone who likes to leave a way out."
"If we succeed, we live. If we fail, we die. There is no other path. Keep this firmly in mind."
Hearing Xu Zimei's words, countless members of the Demon Race began to shout aloud.
"If we succeed, we live. If we fail, we die."
At the same time, Xu Zimei first took a step into the Void Gate.
This Void Gate could directly lead to the Holy Court.
Ever since he had taken hold of the Space Ancient God's legacy, his understanding of space had reached a state of sublime mastery.
When he left the Holy Court previously, he had set a coordinate within the Holy Court, so that as long as he passed through the Void Gate, he would descend upon the Holy Court.
...…
Meanwhile, in the Holy Court.
The Holy Ancestor and Immortal Lord simultaneously appeared in the Firmament.
The other Thirty-Six Holy Emperors, along with the Seventy-Two Holy Envoys, and all the various figures great and small, together already numbered over a million.
Their collective strength could be described as incomparably powerful.
No matter where such a force was placed, it would be enough to sweep aside all resistance, to shock the Heavens and move Ghost Gods to tears.
It was sufficient to annihilate any place.
Yet this very force was, at this moment, in full battle formation.
There was not the slightest hint of laxity.
They were waiting—waiting for that man's arrival.
At this time, it was also when many people began to place their bets.
Some wagered on Xu Zimei, some wagered on the Holy Court.
To lose meant eternal doom, but to win would be to overturn a dynasty and open a new era.
Of course, some people's bets were not placed on the Holy Court.
But on the Heavenly Dao behind the Holy Court.
Yet the Dominators of the other Domains, including the Lord of the Dead Spirits and the Thousand Calamities Doomsday, had no choice.
They could only bet on Xu Zimei's side; they were all on the same ship.
If one prospers, all prosper; if one suffers, all suffer.
Unless they were willing to remain in submission to the Heavenly Dao forever.
...…
"The Demon Lord has, in the end, truly come into his own," the Immortal Lord said with emotion.
"The gears of fate are turning; none can halt them," the Holy Ancestor said calmly.
"Do you think we will lose, or win?" the Immortal Lord asked again.
"Every Heaven Challenger throughout the ages has been defeated. How is this generation's Demon Lord any different?" the Holy Ancestor countered.
Hearing this answer, the Immortal Lord could not help but smile.
He himself felt much more at ease.
"Indeed, how is this generation's Demon Lord any different?"
The Holy Court had stood for so many years.
What storms and tempests had they not weathered?
Yet in the end, the Holy Court was still the Holy Court, standing unshaken.
And those Heaven Challengers had all become losers, their traces erased.
What remained was only a warning for those who came after.
"However, this time is still somewhat different."
The Holy Ancestor suddenly spoke.
"In the past, Heaven Challengers were all slain by the Heavenly Dao."
"But this time's Heaven Challenger—we will personally slay him."
In the Holy Ancestor's eyes burst forth a flame called ambition.
If he could personally kill a Heaven Challenger, then this Nine Domains World might truly become a realm where his word was law.
One must know that the Heavenly Dao usually did not interfere in affairs.
Unless a Heaven Challenger appeared, or something arose that threatened Heaven and Earth.
Otherwise, the Heavenly Dao would not appear.
He would then be free to do as he pleased.
At this moment, the Immortal Lord raised his head to look at the Firmament.
They saw that the originally azure sky was suddenly tainted by demonic Qi.
Ten thousand li of demonic Qi roared forth.
It was almost in a state of blotting out the sky and covering the sun.
In this instant, the Nine Domains—whether the upper Robbery Immortal Domain or the lower Mortal Domain,
or the other Domains—
were almost all corroded by demonic Qi.
The black demonic Qi seeped through every crack, enshrouding the Nine Domains.
Just like when the Demon's Advent descended in the past.
"He has come," the Immortal Lord muttered to himself.
At this time, everyone raised their heads to look.
They saw that in the Firmament above the Holy Court, a spatial gate had been opened.
Countless members of the Demon Race appeared above the Holy Court like Heavenly Generals descending from on high.
And Xu Zimei, clad in a Demon Robe, emerged together with several Demon Elders, as well as protectors and Demon Generals.
Not long after Xu Zimei arrived, the Dominators of the other Domains also led their respective forces to gather there.
The Brahma Demon Great Emperor led the experts of the Mortal Domain.
Candle Dragon led the experts of the Fire Tribe to arrive.
The Thousand Calamities Doomsday led the experts of the Ghost God Realm.
The Lord of the Dead Spirits brought the experts of the Netherworld Realm.
The Queen Lord brought the experts of the Cangxuan Realm Jade Pool.
Zhuge Dan brought the experts of the True Martial Holy Sect in the Heaven Extreme Realm to support.
It could be said that this time, the experts supporting Xu Zimei had almost all come out in full force.
"Are lords and princes born to their station?"
The Lord of the Dead Spirits laughed loudly.
As the saying goes, a true man born between Heaven and Earth—how can he remain depressed and long dwell beneath another?
