Chapter 1627 - 464: Disguised Great Saint, Thunder Fire Great Dao!
The mighty power of the Thunder Fire Great Dao descended instantly, pressing heavily on the head of the demonic being.
The demon felt as if Mount Tai was crashing down, experiencing infinite pressure, and could only muster all its strength to resist.
But, could it withstand it?
"Whoosh."
Lu Changsheng moved.
His physical body unleashed a direct punch.
As a chaotic life form, even without undergoing a life transition, his foundation was incredibly deep.
This punch alone could explode a strong being that has undergone one life transition.
Now with Lu Changsheng using the Void Realm to suppress the demon, his punch became the final straw that broke the camel’s back.
What could the demon use to withstand?
"Boom."
A muffled sound echoed.
The demon could no longer hold on, its Evil Qi scattered, and its physical body was utterly blown apart.
Lu Changsheng’s Thunder Fire Great Dao further descended overwhelmingly, burning all the demon’s Evil Qi into ashes.
"Ah..."
In a shrill scream, the demon was reduced to nothing.
The confrontation between the two lasted only a few breaths, very brief, but the victor was already determined.
The demon was dead.
Lu Changsheng merely stared at the collapsing body of the demon.
As the body crumbled, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight...
Eventually, Lu Changsheng was dumbfounded.
What did he see?
Thirteen strands!
This demon actually contained thirteen strands of Dark Domain Origin Power.
But, how was this possible?
Even top prodigies with two or three strands of Dark Domain Origin Power would be impressive.
How could there be thirteen strands of Dark Domain Origin Power?
Lu Changsheng furrowed his brow, deep in thought.
"Wait, a great battle erupted within the Heavenly Demon Forbidden Area, countless prodigies entered it."
"Similarly, demons were not weak; in the mutual slaughter, who knows how many prodigies fell."
"If those prodigies were killed by demons, wouldn’t their Qi Fortune also be plundered? If the Qi Fortune was plundered, wouldn’t the Dark Domain Origin Power also enter the other’s body?"
"If this is the case, then it makes sense. This demon must have slain many prodigies..."
Lu Changsheng’s eyes lit up.
He seemed to have thought of something.
If this was true, then the fierce competition of numerous prodigies in the Dark Domain could also be understood.
No wonder there were many struggles between prodigies in the Dark Domain.
Even sects or forces would dispatch some prodigies to battle.
Life and death were not even considered.
What was the purpose?
Was it really just for training and practice?
Impossible!
Having those prodigies fight to the death, training in dangerous places, was it just to stimulate their potential while teetering between life and death?
The real purpose was likely for the prodigies to kill each other, thus plundering Qi Fortune.
With Qi Fortune, the path of cultivation would become much smoother.
Each top prodigy ascended to the peak over the bones of countless prodigies.
This is completely different from chaos.
Chaos seemed to have no plundering of Qi Fortune.
Nor was there life-and-death competition among prodigies.
No sense to it.
It must be different rules of heaven and earth.
The rules of heaven and earth in the Dark Domain are just like that.
Survival of the fittest.
The strong take everything, while the weak become stepping stones for the strong.
Prodigies are the same.
No matter how dazzling you are.
But once a prodigy stronger than you appeared, you’d only become their stepping stone.
Fast once, fast forever.
Once a prodigy surpasses you, they will only get faster and faster.
The surpassed will have no chance of catching up.
Lu Changsheng suddenly realized.
This was the true "nature" of the Dark Domain.
This was the "correct way" for him to obtain Dark Domain Origin Power.
By killing this demon, Lu Changsheng gained thirteen strands of Dark Domain Origin Power, equivalent to previously killing thirteen top prodigies.
It was simply too worthwhile.
Moreover, every day in the Heavenly Demon Forbidden Area, prodigies entered and battled with demons.
Some terrifying demons had no idea how many prodigies they had killed.
Once Lu Changsheng slayed those powerful demons, he would obtain unimaginable Dark Domain Origin Power.
This trip to the Heavenly Demon Forbidden Area was bound to yield enormous rewards!
Thinking of this, Lu Changsheng’s heart burned with enthusiasm.
He was not in a hurry to cultivate.
This was a rare opportunity in the Heavenly Demon Forbidden Area, and he had to seize every moment to slay demons and gain a large amount of Dark Domain Origin Power.
Therefore, Lu Changsheng’s actions grew slightly bolder.
But he still didn’t dare provoke those terrifying demons comparable to high-rank Great Saints.
However, if the demons were only up to Two Dao or Three Dao Great Saints, Lu Changsheng would not hold back.
He was determined to kill!
Lu Changsheng glanced at the Token of the Enlightenment Saint Sect.
It displayed two thousand Enlightenment Points.
The Enlightenment Saint Sect did not count Enlightenment Points for slaying demons or exotic beasts below the Saint Realm.
Only slaying a Saint Realm grants one hundred Enlightenment Points.
Slaying One Dao Great Saint gives one thousand Enlightenment Points.
Slaying Two Dao Great Saints gives two thousand Enlightenment Points.
Slaying Three Dao Great Saints gives three thousand Enlightenment Points.
And so on.
For each additional Great Dao power among the Great Saints, one extra thousand Enlightenment Points is awarded.
The demon Lu Changsheng had just slain was comparable to Two Dao Great Saints, thus earning him two thousand Enlightenment Points.
It was said that gathering ten thousand Enlightenment Points would allow one entry into the Enlightenment Pool.
This was very difficult.
It almost required slaying one hundred One Dao Great Saint demons.
Could this be possible?
It actually could!
The Heavenly Demon Forbidden Area was said to contain ten thousand demon saints.
This meant there were ten thousand Saint Realms.
However, most of these ten thousand demon saints were just Saint Realms.
Only three thousand were Great Demons!
