Within the Heart Demon Kite, Elder Xin Yan was the primary controller, aided by twelve Eternal True Gods, commanding over ten thousand Void True Gods. This was no ordinary large-scale mechanical secret treasure; it was one of the sect’s cornerstone treasures, custom-made based on the Divine King-level inheritance *Six Absolute Destructions* by the Divine King who founded the Heart Shadow Sect. The control threshold was extremely high.
At present, within the entire Heart Shadow Sect, aside from the openly known Elder Xin Yan, only the hidden Qiu Yi could control a cornerstone treasure.
A cornerstone treasure unifies the power of all its operators, even merging their mental wills!
“Chirp~~~” Along with a piercing screech, Elder Xin Yan commanded all under his control, uniting their wills to launch an attack.
Elder Xin Yan was very confident.
His own will had already reached the level of an ordinary Chaos Realm, and by controlling the Heart Demon Kite with the unified wills of all involved, the unleashed will attack could be considered at the “pinnacle of Chaos Realm” level!
“This will attack should be enough to wound Luo He, drastically reducing his strength, and then we can completely suppress him,” Elder Xin Yan didn’t expect the will technique to kill Luo Feng outright.
In fact, aside from the *Lieu Yuan Technique*, normal will clashes, unless the difference in willpower was absurdly large, would at most result in some will damage and a corresponding drop in strength.
On the Origin Continent, this was exceedingly rare, only possible with an overwhelming disparity.
For example, with Luo Feng’s current Divine King-level will, if he targeted the disciples of the Heart Shadow Sect, without even using the *Lieu Yuan Technique*, ninety-nine percent of them would die from a single glance. Only Elder Xin Yan, Qiu Yi, the Sect Master, and perhaps no more than ten others would survive.
Luo Feng felt the impact on his will and was somewhat surprised. He hadn’t planned on using his most powerful will techniques; after all, if he killed Elder Xin Yan with a mere glance, it would be too alarming.
Such a scene would undoubtedly attract the attention of the Divine Kings of Yuguo and Shiguo.
He was very close to reaching the Chaos Realm and decided to endure for a bit longer until he broke through.
Once in the Chaos Realm, using Divine King-level willpower would appear more normal, as some Chaos Overlords could manage it. At that point, his ability to protect himself would greatly increase, and he’d be better equipped to handle risks.
“I’ve always intended to keep my strength slightly above the strongest Eternal True God of Yuguo, but who would have thought you’d attack me on your own accord?” Luo Feng couldn’t help but feel a bit helpless.
The ferocious will attack caused immense pain for everyone within the Heart Demon Kite, whether it was Elder Xin Yan, the other Eternal True Gods, or the tens of thousands of Void True Gods. They all felt as if their minds were being torn apart.
“Not good.” The Heart Demon Kite, which had initially pounced forward, suddenly retreated violently.
Fortunately, this was only a “rebound injury,” and they could still maintain some clarity.
“This Luo He seems to possess pinnacle Chaos Realm willpower! And his will technique is extraordinary!” Elder Xin Yan immediately transmitted, “Six Shadow Killing Formation, retreat! Luo He’s willpower is too terrifying!”
“What?” The six massive mechanical secret treasures that formed the Six Shadow Killing Formation were taken aback.
They had just set up the formation to trap Divine Lord Luo He, so why were they suddenly ordered to retreat?
“Since you’ve sensed my willpower, I might as well reveal a bit more,” Luo Feng thought as he moved, careful to restrain himself in every way possible. Whether it was his divine body or his will, an all-out display would easily sweep through the Heart Shadow Sect and draw the attention of ancient Divine Kings.
On the positive side, some powerful figure might take Luo Feng under their wing.
On the negative side, they could kill, enslave, or control him.
Luo Feng didn’t want to entrust his fate to the whims of a Divine King.
His master, Zuo Shan Ke, had also advised him to be cautious and low-key because the waters of the Origin Continent were too deep.
Luo Feng swung the Divine King-level blade embryo, the Blood Shadow Knife. A dazzling blade light, sharp as a butcher’s cleaver slicing through an ox, cut through the void, through everything, and aimed at the retreating Heart Demon Kite.
As the blade struck the Heart Demon Kite, Luo Feng immediately sensed its incredible resilience! The Heart Demon Kite’s toughness was comparable to that of a Chaos Realm weapon secret treasure; Luo Feng’s blade couldn’t cut through it.
However, the energy from the blade permeated it, and an accompanying will, as sharp as the blade itself, penetrated into the Heart Demon Kite. All the beings within, whose wills were unified, were forced to endure this mental and will-based attack!
This move was Luo Feng’s first Chaos Realm blade technique, *Heart Refinement*.
After five epochs, this technique had evolved through multiple versions.
Now, this *Heart Refinement* blade merged six different Chaos Realm techniques and naturally integrated the will technique Luo Feng had comprehended from the *Tribulation Beast Diagram*.
Five epochs ago, Luo Feng already possessed Divine King-level will. At that time, he had only comprehended a small portion of the *Three Thousand Void Tribulation Beast Diagram*. As his understanding gradually deepened and his will slowly improved, Luo Feng also devised a will technique based on the diagram.
This will technique currently had only three moves.
The first move was incorporated into the *Heart Refinement* blade technique, which aimed to destroy the enemy’s divine body while simultaneously shattering their will.
“Ah.” The Heart Demon Kite was sent flying, and the operators inside felt as though their wills had been struck by another blade, causing immense pain.
Fortunately, Luo Feng had only used a strand of his willpower, greatly restraining the attack’s power, so they only felt pain rather than suffering more severe consequences.
The blade sliced through the chaos, cutting past the Heart Demon Kite and the Six Shadow Killing Formation.
The Six Shadow Killing Formation was composed of six massive mechanical secret treasures working together. However, these ordinary large-scale mechanical secret treasures couldn’t achieve “will unification”; it was up to their operators’ unified will to control the secret treasures.
With just a strand of willpower, greatly restrained, and using his self-created will technique, Luo Feng’s *Heart Refinement* blade caused the six commanders of the Six Shadow Killing Formation to collapse mentally. Five of them lost consciousness immediately, and only one managed to stay awake, barely escaping in panic.
In just one brilliant strike!
The Heart Demon Kite retreated, the Six Shadow Killing Formation collapsed! One of the massive mechanical secret treasures fled, while the other five were directly split by the blade.
When the commanders fell unconscious, the defensive capabilities of the large mechanical secret treasures were greatly reduced, making them easy to break apart.
The five scattered large mechanical secret treasures had the advantage of not having unified wills! The commanders were in charge of controlling the secret treasures, and after being struck, they fell unconscious. The ordinary members, however, remained conscious and fled in terror.
Luo Feng waved his hand, collecting the five shattered large mechanical secret treasures.
“How is this possible?”
The Sect Master and the Eighteen Elders of the Heart Shadow Sect were all gathered, watching the battle unfold with shock and anger.
“He possesses pinnacle Chaos Realm willpower. Under his will technique, the Six Shadow Killing Formation couldn’t hold up at all,” Elder Xin Yan said with a serious expression. “Even the Heart Demon Kite, with its unified will, couldn’t match him.”
“To think such powerful will exists.”
“An Eternal True God with pinnacle Chaos Realm willpower, which major force could have nurtured him?”
They hadn’t even considered that Luo Feng might have Divine King-level will.
On the Origin Continent, there were quite a few Eternal True Gods with Chaos Realm willpower, like Divine Lord Xue Yun, Magili Xiao, and Zhu Hu, all of whom possessed Chaos Realm willpower.
Elder Xin Yan and Qiu Yi, who trained in Divine King-level inheritances, had ordinary Chaos Realm willpower.
In the two great ancient kingdoms, some elite Eternal True Gods nurtured by major forces also reached the pinnacle of Chaos Realm willpower.
But for someone to transcend two levels, an Eternal True God with Divine King-level willpower? That was a rarity on the Origin Continent!
“The Great Destruction Formation was personally refined by a Divine King. It requires 360 Eternal True Gods to operate, uniting their power and will. This is our Heart Shadow Sect’s true killing move,” the Sect Master and the Eighteen Elders remained confident.
The Great Destruction Formation was currently the most powerful means available to the Heart Shadow Sect.
Under such an ultimate formation…
No Eternal True God could withstand it!
“The screech of the Heart Demon Kite was a will attack. It lunged forward but suddenly retreated; it must have suffered will damage.”
“Look, the Six Shadow Killing Formation’s five large mechanical secret treasures couldn’t withstand Luo He’s blade at all and were split apart. Clearly, their commanders lost the ability to resist.”
At the City Lord’s Mansion, the leaders of the Five Great Families were filled with excitement.
Magili Xiao described the key moments, “In a normal battle, the Heart Demon Kite and the Six Shadow Killing
Formation could have tangled with Divine Lord Luo He. But in a clash of wills, Divine Lord Luo He’s will was clearly superior. The Heart Demon Kite could only exert thirty to forty percent of its power. The Six Shadow Killing Formation lost all ability to resist…”
“With such a significant willpower advantage, Divine Lord Luo He’s will must have reached the pinnacle of Chaos Realm.”
“This news must be reported to Lord Hou immediately.”
“An Eternal True God with pinnacle Chaos Realm willpower… even the elite Eternal True Gods of the two great ancient kingdoms are no better than this.”
They felt that victory in this battle was becoming increasingly likely.
“That strike from Luo He cut through the body and the will,” at the Yan Feng Pavilion, Di Chu Yu observed the battle from a distance, having already broken through to the Chaos Realm and therefore able to discern more of the truth. “But the advantage isn’t overwhelming. It’s normal for the Heart Demon Kite to escape, given that it’s one of the Heart Shadow Sect’s cornerstone treasures, but I didn’t expect even one of the Six Shadow Killing Formation to escape.”
Di Chu Yu thought to himself that when he was an Eternal True God, if he had been in Luo Feng’s position, none of the Six Shadow Killing Formation would have escaped.
“I suspect that Jiugang Marquis and Marquis Liu Yin have also sent divine power incarnations to the vicinity of Huyang City and are likely observing this battle,” the Vice Pavilion Master said with a smile. “Marquis Liu Yin is probably quite anxious at this moment.”
Just after Luo Feng had collected the five large mechanical secret treasures, the Heart Demon Kite and another large mechanical secret treasure had already fled far away.
“Whoosh.” A simple and honest figure traversed the void and appeared nearby; it was Morosa.
“Master, I’ve completed the tasks you assigned me,” Morosa said excitedly. “I also took the liberty of killing some Eternal True Gods from the Heart Shadow Sect. They were ruthless in their slaughter, and I know you don’t like that.”
“Very good,” Luo Feng praised.
Morosa was delighted to hear the praise.
Luo Feng suddenly looked into the distant sky, where a vast formation was now covering half of the sky, enveloping them. The immense, invisible pressure made Luo Feng’s heart pound.
“What a powerful killing formation,” Luo Feng said.
