âIf I hadnât seen it with my own eyes, I wouldnât have believed this scene was real.
âItâs simply impossibleâtoo impossible.
âAt this moment, Mo GĂ©lian felt like an ancient giant demon, ready to rend heaven and earth.
âJust now I tested him. His body was utterly worthlessâhow could he suddenly display such a transformation? Simply from that single fist posture?â
Ye Yuâs mind swirled with questions as he stepped forward to investigateâ
But the moment he advanced, the ground beneath Mo Gélian erupted with countless cracks, and shattered stones levitated into the air.
Under a tremendous oppressive force, they sharpened into pointed shards, all aimed at Ye Yu as though primed to strike!
Strangeâthis phenomenon was utterly bizarre.
Ye Yu narrowed his eyes and slowly raised his right hand; a purple talisman flickered into being on his fingertip.
The Supreme Decree Talisman was ready to be cast.
The Heart-Demon at his side sensed the danger and fled behind a giant boulder, trembling.
Just â§ NĐŸvĐ”Iight â§ (Original source) as a great clash was about to eruptâ
All the floating stones around Mo Gélian fell back to the ground.
Ye Yuâs curiosity deepened. Why had Mo GĂ©lian suddenly stood down? What was he after?
Before Ye Yu could ponder further, a heavy snore resoundedâand then another, regular and continuous.
He really... fell asleep?
Ye Yu covered his face with one hand, on the verge of collapse.
What kind of miraculous demon sect and demon lord was this? Absurd to the extreme!
Several hours laterâ
Mo GĂ©lian awoke to find himself in the grand hall. Instinctively he called out, âA-Rui! A-Rui!â
The Heart-Demon A-Rui soon appeared. âMy lord, what orders do you have?â
Mo GĂ©lian asked seriously, âThat fellow named Ye Yuâhas he left yet? It cost me over a thousand demon stones just to lure a single Earth Demon Realm disciple here. This was no easy feat. I hope you can tell me good news.â
A-Rui opened his mouth to speak but Mo GĂ©lian clamped a hand over it. âEnoughâquiet! Iâve read your eyes. Heâs gone, right?â
A-Rui hesitated, then nodded.
Mo GĂ©lian sighed, âWell, thatâs his loss. No need to be upset.â
But he fumed inwardlyâwhy was it so hard to retain a demon disciple in this sect?
Suddenly a familiar voice called, âLooking for me?â
Mo GĂ©lian turned to see Ye Yu sitting on the sect lordâs dais, holding an ancient tome. On its cover were three large characters: Demon Over Heaven.
âYou didnât leaveâwonderful!â
Mo GĂ©lian struggled to his feet and stomped over, displeased. âYou mustnât sit here againâthis is my seat! Know your place!â
Ye Yu ignored the scolding and said calmly, âIs this book your âstrongest Body-Tempering Methodâ?â
Mo GĂ©lianâs face lit with pride. âYesâwait, that book was safely in my storage ring. How did you get it? Have you broken into my ring?â
Ye Yu raised an eyebrow, sending Mo GĂ©lian a pitying look. âA-Rui gave it to me.â
âWhen you were asleep, he praised you endlesslyâcalling you a once-in-a-million-years lord and sharing all your demon stones and cultivation methods without holding back. Even this supreme Body-Tempering Method was given to him.â
Mo GĂ©lianâs smile froze.
âHeâs a Heart-Demon, so he canât cultivate. He passed the book to me to see if I could.â
Mo GĂ©lian nodded, eyes darting. âRightâthis is the core method of the Blazing Demon Hall. Now that youâve seen it, you canât leave the sect.â
Ye Yu glanced at him.
Mo GĂ©lian clutched his belly and muttered, âTalk all you want, but donât lay a finger on me. Donât forgetâyouâre Earth Demon Realm and Iâm Demon Lord Realm. If we fight, youâll lose.â
Ye Yu asked softly, âAre you threatening me?â
âN-noâI only wanted to tell you reality. You canât keep attacking me; itâs not right.â
In his toughest pose, Mo GĂ©lian spoke the softest wordsâa contradiction that made Ye Yu smile.
âIâll say it straight: as a Strength-Demon, you shouldnât be this fat. Youâre fat because you practiced the method incorrectly. Qi enters the body from bottom to top, but you reversed itâtop to bottom. Your qi accumulated and couldnât circulate, hence your obesity.â
âMoreover, your mispractice warped the Body-Tempering Method, weakening your body. Lately, havenât you been sleepy and dizzy? At this rate, in three years youâll surely die.â
At Ye Yuâs words, the floor cracked beneath Mo GĂ©lianâhe collapsed to his knees.
He realized with shock that Ye Yuâs diagnosis was preciseâespecially the sleepiness and dizziness, which had plagued him ever more these past six months.
On the verge of madness, Mo GĂ©lian clutched Ye Yuâs leg and wept, âMaster, please save me! I beg you!â
âAre you sure?â Ye Yu asked.
Mo GĂ©lian froze. âHuh? Why do you ask? Of course Iâm sureâotherwise Iâll die!â
The next moment, the hall echoed with flesh-striking-flesh soundsâbrutal blows raining upon Mo GĂ©lian!
Even A-Rui couldnât bear it; he covered his eyes.
Half a month laterâ
Ye Yu had successfully broken into the Heaven Demon Realm.
Though it was only one stage, his strength had changed dramatically!
That Demon Over Heaven method truly was the Demon Realmâs strongest Body-Tempering Method.
