435: Heaven and earth are like a furnace, with yin and yang as the charcoal and creation as the craftsman!

A "Ten Thousand Curse Snake Mother," shaped like a multi-headed monster snake with a cold and eerie aura, screeched.

It did not approach, but merely spat out endless grey curse mist from afar.

The mist ignored physical defenses, directly eroding the vitality, Luck, and even the fighting will of living beings, causing continuous weakening and interference to Lu Jiuyuan's "Ten Thousand Worlds Divine Body" as well.

"Obliterate that Phoenix phantom! Sever its Foundation!"

"Kill those ants! Destroy their hearts, and let's see how he can continue to 'nurture war with war'!"

Boom, boom, boom—!!!

Attacks of Divine-Grade, capable of evaporating mountain ranges and tearing apart the earth, rained down upon the Human Race army formation!

Despite the protection of the Nirvana fire, and despite the warriors fighting with increasing valor, casualties began to appear inevitably under such an absolute disparity in power!

The red-gold flames flickered amidst the bombardment of demonic light; every time they dimmed, it was accompanied by the bodies of dozens or hundreds of warriors shattering and turning to ash!

Even with the Nirvana fire to sustain them, Rebirth requires time and energy, and under such high-intensity bombardment from the Divine-Grade demons,

many warriors could not even manage to Rebirth before they, along with the portion of their Divine Soul entrusted within, were completely wiped out!

"Brothers—hold the line!! For the Human Race!!!"

Du Tianyu's eyes were splitting with rage.

He swung his blade frantically, dispersing most of a demonic light attacking the core of the formation, but he himself was blasted by the recoil, causing his arms to shatter.

The Nirvana fire surged rapidly to repair them, but his aura instantly withered significantly.

He looked back and saw that the originally dense army formation already had many gaps; although the warriors were still charging forward one after another, the flames on everyone's bodies had dimmed significantly,

obviously, maintaining this "undying" state was a tremendous burden on both Lu Jiuyuan and the warriors themselves!

"Hahahaha! Do you see that, Human Race brat?"

An "Eight-Armed War Demon," possessing eight arms and holding a different hideous demonic weapon in each, laughed wildly, its eight demonic weapons brandishing light that could destroy heaven and earth.

Over twenty Divine-Grade demons at the Dynasty Emperor level joined forces to tightly block Lu Jiuyuan.

"Your tricks have reached their end! Once these seeds of fire of yours are dead, let's see what you have left to be arrogant with!"

The pressure was unprecedented!

Lu Jiuyuan once again used exquisite movement techniques to avoid several fatal combined attacks, backhanding a sword strike to split a Shadow Demon sneaking up from behind into two halves,

but his chest was also grazed by the bone spur of another Divine-Grade demon, leaving a white mark; it had almost broken his skin!

"As expected... is it still too much to face the entire Demon Race front head-on with the power of one person..."

"At this intensity, fighting without sleep, I can only last for three years at most."

"No... that's not right... this is too disadvantageous; I'm not gaining much benefit, and many Demon Race corpses are being wasted!"

"My path... was never conventional cultivation! [Transforming Void into Reality, Borrowing the False to Become True]... the greater the heart, the greater the achievement..."

"What binds me now is not power, but... 'cognition'! It's that I am still using 'common sense' to measure this war!"

In a split second, Lu Jiuyuan had a sudden flash of inspiration!

He suddenly looked up, gazing at the phantom of the Dark Monarch perched high in the Void Realm, seemingly dominating everything, then looked down at the boundless, roaring tens of millions of the demon army charging below, and finally, his gaze fell back to himself, back into the 129,600 newborn Small Worlds within his body that possessed infinite potential!

A crazy, yet perfectly aligned thought with his fundamental path, flashed through his mind like lightning!

"Since conventional 'nurturing war with war' has a limit... then..."

"Why not turn this war itself... into the 'provisions' and 'furnace' for me to open up my inner world and forge my own body!"

"Take these Divine-Grade demons... take this army of hundreds of millions of demons... take everything of theirs: power, Law, flesh and blood, soul, and even the meaning of 'destruction' and 'end' they brought..."

"Swallow them all!"

"With the blood of demons, I shall cast the Foundation of my ten thousand worlds! With the souls of demons, I shall ignite my Nirvana fire! With the bones of demons, I shall pave my path to godhood!"

Once the thought arose, like a spark starting a prairie fire, it could no longer be contained!

Lu Jiuyuan no longer deliberately maintained high-speed movement and exquisite dodging; he suddenly stopped in the Void Realm, the grey power of the world around him and the red-gold Nirvana true fire erupting with a boom, intertwining and wrapping around him,

forming a Supreme Dharma Body behind him that stepped on a Dragon turtle, wore a flaming emperor robe, and had eyes that seemed to contain the birth and death of thousands of worlds!

Although the Supreme Dharma Body was not yet completely solidified, that supreme will of governing the heavens and smelting all Laws was revealed so clearly for the first time!

"Hmm?" The phantom of the Dark Monarch seemed to have detected a trace of unusual fluctuation.

All the surrounding Divine-Grade demons also instinctively felt a palpitation, and their offensive could not help but pause slightly.

Lu Jiuyuan slowly raised his hands!

He closed his eyes, his entire mind sinking into his body, into those 129,600 Small Worlds, and into the core of that incomparably domineering Golden Finger, [Transforming Void into Reality, Borrowing the False to Become True]!

"With my heart as the furnace!"

"With my will as the fire!"

"With my Dao as the guide!"

"Take all demons as firewood!"

"Cast—the Furnace of Ten Thousand Worlds—!!!"

Rumble—!!!!

The indescribable, terrifying roar did not come from the outside world, but from within Lu Jiuyuan!

Every pore on his body was emitting blazing light intertwined with grey and red, and the Supreme Dharma Body behind him suddenly expanded, towering between heaven and earth!

A massive, looming, illusory phantom of a "furnace," seemingly woven from the veins of countless worlds, slowly emerged with Lu Jiuyuan at its center, enveloping a radius of ten thousand miles!

Inside the furnace, the grey power of the world formed the furnace walls, the red-gold Nirvana true fire became the furnace fire, and the phantoms of the four elemental forces—Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water—rotated and evolved within it,

while a domineering, terrifying "refining" Concept, as if intending to smelt all things in heaven and earth and return them to their origin, suddenly permeated the area!

This was a Domain, a Domain built by Lu Jiuyuan with himself as the Foundation and [Transforming Void into Reality] as the core—a Super Refining Furnace!

"You big fool, what are you doing?" the Ten Thousand Curse Snake Mother screamed in shock.

"Oh no! Retreat quickly!"

The Lava Mountain Master felt that the Demon Domain and Laws around him were faintly being drawn in and refined by the furnace phantom, and retreated in horror.

However, it was already too late!

"Ah, Heaven and Earth are a furnace, with Yin and Yang as charcoal, and Creation as the craftsman! The furnace is formed; I invite all demons to return to their places!"

Lu Jiuyuan suddenly opened his eyes; there were no pupils in them, only burning grey and red flames!

He changed his hand seals and pressed down hard towards the furnace phantom!

"Refine—!"

Hum—!!!

The furnace phantom shone brightly, instantly turning from illusory to substantial.

A massive furnace had formed within a radius of ten thousand miles; everything within those ten thousand miles was now inside this furnace.
