Chapter 1365: Curse
"You've mastered the laws of heavenly devils, which transcends beyond the laws of inner demons! You must be the Heavenly Devil Dao Ancestor!" the Devilish Monarch deduced.
Yin Ming offered no response, continuing to stand in the devilish army's path in silence.
The rotund woman's expression changed slightly upon hearing this, as did the expressions of the other three devilish Dao Ancestors, while the rest of the devilish army looked on befuddlement.
Most of the banquet attendees also had no idea what the Devilish Monarch was talking about, with only the True Lord Cang Wu's trio and several exceptionally old Great Encompassment cultivators, one of whom was Meng Po, turning to stare at Yin Ming with stunned expressions.
"Who is this Heavenly Devil Dao Ancestor, Mistress? Everyone seems to be very afraid of him," Yu Menghan asked through voice transmission.
"The Heavenly Devil Dao Ancestor is a Dao Ancestor from ancient times, said to have lived for even longer than Supreme Lord Gu Huojin. It's said that whenever he goes into seclusion, his spiritual sense would split up into countless avatars that infiltrated all of the realms, searching for suitable cultivators to contaminate their mental state in order to further his heavenly devil law powers. Those spiritual sense avatars of his are what's commonly referred to as Extrarealm Heaveny Devils," Meng Po replied.
"So all of the Extrarealm Heavenly Devils were created by him!" Yu Menghan exclaimed in a stunned manner.
Extrarealm Heavenly Devils had always been a major cause for concern for all cultivators beyond the Grand Ascension Stage as there was a chance that one would arise with each breakthrough that they made, and countless cultivators throughout history had perished to these feared entities.
"Of course, that's just a rumor, so it may not be true, but the heavenly devil law powers are extremely fearsome, able to easily infiltrate a cultivator's mind and drive them mad, following which the Heavenly Devil Dao Ancestor would feast on the power of his victims' emotions to enhance his own powers. In his quest for power, he destroyed no fewer than a thousand lower realms and even several immortal regions.
“The ruler of the Heavenly Court at the time had sent out over ten Dao Ancestors to hunt him down, and he completely faded into obscurity after that. I didn't think that he was still alive," Meng Po said as a hint of fear flashed through her eyes.
"That's not necessarily the case. Perhaps the Heavenly Devil Dao Ancestor from back then is already dead, and this is someone else who's managed to cultivate the laws of heavenly devils to the top," Yu Menghan speculated.
