Chapter 651
The Steady Heart Demon God
The inner demon god could not understand, but he was indeed seized by a shock that came from the depths of his soul.
It was not simply fear or astonishment, but rather a tremor and resonance that the very essence of life was compelled to feel when faced with a magnificent existence that transcended its cognitive dimensions.
Even when facing the will of the abyss, He also experiences a life-level tremor.
But He was born in the abyss and came to know the abyss as He grew.
Especially after becoming a demon god and taking control of the mind, he explored his fondness for the will of the abyss to the extreme.
All living beings are always afraid of the power of the unknown.
Even the inner demon god, whose divine will governs everything, is no exception.
"Buzz!"
The Demon God closed his eyes tightly, carefully sensing the fleeting, majestic aura that had just passed by.
At this moment, the vast and boundless void seemed to freeze.
Only that one palpitation was crystal clear, constantly echoing in the mind of the Heart Demon God.
Those were no ordinary world ripples, nor were they the aura of any known deity.
Ancient, profound, and magnificent, it carries an indescribable sense of origin, almost like a supreme rule.
This made Him, the top demon god of the abyss who held the power over the mind, feel as insignificant as dust.
Reason is screaming madly, issuing the most severe warning.
Every survival experience accumulated over billions of years tells Him to immediately cease exploration and return to the embrace of the abyss!
To approach such a terrifying being, whose very nature and intentions are unknown, is tantamount to courting death.
However, a completely opposite, yet even stronger and more bizarre, impulse arose and spread from the depths of His heart.
It was a sudden, inexplicable impulse, a mysterious premonition, accompanied by a longing to get closer, whispering incessantly.
near!
Keep getting closer!
There lies an opportunity, a possibility to transcend one's current position and glimpse a higher realm—a dawn that has never appeared in the millions of years of silence.
Two opposing thoughts clashed fiercely in the mind's sea of consciousness, and this attraction was fatally drawn to the mind's god who had made no progress for billions of years.
and!
And there's also the yearning for freedom!
On one side are the rock-solid rules of survival, and on the other side are alluring yet unpredictable illusions of the future.
He seemed to be standing at the crossroads of fate, with a familiar and safe abyss beneath his feet, and an unknown cliff ahead that was filled with alluring light but could lead to a fatal misstep.
"Could it be that it is not an embodiment of the will of some great world, but rather an unknown being that travels beyond the universe, something more ancient and transcendent?"
Once this thought arose, it spread like wildfire, making the mind of the inner demon even more chaotic.
He took a deep breath of something that wasn't there, trying to calm his turbulent soul.
Ultimately, the caution honed over millions of years prevailed over that alluring yet illusory impulse.
He paused in the void for only a moment before making his decision.
With a swift and decisive turn, ripples spread across the surrounding space, and the unique, dark aura of the abyss enveloped His majestic body.
The next moment, His figure completely disappeared from the spot, and following the close connection with the abyss, He quickly returned.
But giving up does not mean doing nothing.
In the instant before his return, a divine message, imbued with a portion of His perception, was sent by Him to the Star Demon God in a uniquely secretive manner. The message was concise yet crucial, simply stating the facts objectively without adding any of His own subjective opinions.
The Heart Demon God knew his old friend all too well. In terms of cunning, speed of escape, and numerous means of dealing with unknown risks, the Star Demon God was even superior to him.
If He were to make the initial contact and probe, the probability of survival and even learning the truth would indeed be greater.
This is both a sharing of information and a subtle test of the waters.
If the Star Demon God goes to explore and is unharmed, or even benefits from it, then it proves that the risks are controllable or the opportunities are real. At that time, it will not be too late for me to go and get a share of the spoils.
If the Star Demon God were to encounter misfortune or send back a danger signal, then he would completely abandon this idea and continue operating in the Abyss.
Just as the Demon God's figure vanished into the void, and that divine thought was quietly released, He had already crossed endless dimensions and stepped back into the familiar yet oppressive territory of the Abyss.
A dark, viscous flow of energy swept over His divine body, carrying the chaos and whispers unique to the abyss.
His return, a mere fraction of a moment, instantly drew the attention of many powerful demons in the abyss.
Thoughts, some clear and some obscure, filled with inquiry and doubt, swept in from all directions of the abyss.
In their inherent understanding, the fact that the Heart Demon God was so solemn in leaving the abyss must mean that he had a clear goal.
Whether it's conquering a rich plane or engaging in significant transactions with other beings, it's bound to stir up some trouble.
But now, He has returned so quickly, His aura is calm, and there is no sign of battle or gain. This is too abnormal.
Could it be that He encountered a terrifyingly powerful enemy in the outside world, one that even He had to immediately retreat from?
Or has something dramatic happened outside the abyss that even the top demon gods find hard to understand?
Various speculations circulated quietly under the shadow of the Abyss's Will, but no one dared to directly approach and question the Heart Demon God.
The law of the abyss is that suspicion and observation become the norm.
……
The headquarters of the Red Heart Society, filled with a vibrant atmosphere, stands in stark contrast to the eerie and suspicious atmosphere of the abyss.
Lin Xia's cross-legged posture was undergoing a fundamental transformation.
He completely integrated the last essence and the last surge of divine power inherited from the Supreme True God, and perfectly aligned them with his own path.
Immediately afterwards, an unprecedented feeling swept over every wisp of his soul.
That was not a simple increase in power, but a complete leap in the level of life, a fundamental rewriting of the definition of one's own existence.
"powerful."
Lin Xia slowly opened her eyes, and couldn't help but sigh.
This power is not external brute force, but an absolute authority that comes from within and is controlled from the heart.
He felt that his will could easily interfere with the fundamental laws of reality, and that he could resonate with the power of the universe's origin with every move he made.
As far as the eye can see, it is no longer bound by matter and space.
With a slight thought, he pierced through the layers of restrictions at the Red Heart Society headquarters, crossed the endless sea of stars, ignored dimensional barriers, and accurately saw the distant abyss void.
He saw it, and there it was, the Star Demon God, leisurely roaming in a mysterious trajectory, seemingly carefree but actually constantly merging with the laws of the stars and deducing the secrets of heaven.
He could even vaguely sense a faint but specific divine message heading towards the Star Demon God from the direction of the abyss, carrying a trace of the Heart Demon God's aura.
"It seems the Heart Demon God is quite close, which is why it sensed the aura of the Extreme Path at that moment."
Lin Xia's eyes flashed. "If you sense it, just run away."
"The Demon God's personality remains as steady as ever!" (End of Chapter)
