"Really, I'm telling the truth! I have a clone outside Primordial Isle, I'll go find the Demon Lord right now to verify my identity!" Sima Nan said urgently.
The Heavenly Demon looked at him with indifference. "Does that matter?"
Sima Nan froze. What did that an?
The Heavenly Demon looked past Sima Nan, where Su Yuan was also slowly advancing. His perception penetrated through Sima Nan's body, then through Su Yuan's body, seeing deep into Su Yuan's soul where the nine-layer Mind Tower stood.
Countless soul fragnts of living beings floated within the tower, an uncountable number visible at a single glance!
"Interesting, truly fascinating! This is a genuine killing machine, a demonic prodigy, an exceptional talent for the demonic path!"
"Slaughtering trillions of living beings, including over ten thousand Golden Immortals, four hundred Taiyi beings, and trillions of Human Immortals! Such killing karma surpasses even what I achieved back in my day!"
"Despite such carnage, his ntal state remains stable and undisturbed, never losing his original nature! Hahaha, the demonic path has found its successor! The demonic path truly has found its successor!"
"Moreover, to comprehend the Law of Mind to such levels in just a few decades shows extraordinary accumulation. His comprehension, talent, ability, and thods are all peak-level, but most crucially he knows how to hide himself. Throughout the entire Three Realms, no one has truly noticed this guy, and I don't know how he managed that. He has thirty percent of my style!"
The Heavenly Demon sighed repeatedly, feeling quite satisfied within.
Turning back to look at the actual Demon Lord's inheritor Sima Nan, the more he looked the more inadequate he seed, not even matching the excellence of that Naraku fellow beside him.
Sima Nan grew uneasy under the Heavenly Demon's gaze, realizing that trying to curry favor now was useless.
He quickly cald himself, his ntal sea settling into a stable state, and stopped saying unnecessary things.
Only then did the Heavenly Demon's expression soften.
"Very well, the trial officially begins now!"
In an instant, Sima Nan's consciousness split into thousands of fragnts, each sent into a demonic ntal world to experience reincarnated lives.
In so demonic ntal worlds, Sima Nan suffered public condemnation, facing moral and ethical accusations before countless people. Sima Nan laughed heartily toward the sky, slaughtering all living beings with the sword in his hand.
In other worlds, Sima Nan served as a racial hero, but when his race wanted him to sacrifice himself for their continuation, Sima Nan decisively struck out and exterminated his entire race.
One demonic ntal world after another gradually eroded Sima Nan's mories until they were completely obscured. He sank into the deepest levels of the demonic ntal worlds, unable to extricate himself.
Sima Nan had now reached the most dangerous mont. No one knew when he might awaken from the demonic ntal worlds—perhaps in the next mont, perhaps never.
Su Yuan suddenly turned to look at Sima Nan with a strange expression.
This guy actually entered a breakthrough state right in front of him? How arrogant!
He hadn't originally had any particular thoughts about Sima Nan, but Sima Nan's actions were practically handing him an opportunity!
Did he really think those defensive barriers surrounding him could actually block others' attacks or techniques?
Maybe they could block others, but blocking Su Yuan wouldn't be so easy.
[Mind Echo] locked onto the Abyss Will of the Abyss Realm Sea, [Mimicker] activated.
[Great Being's Form] anchored onto the Heavenly Demon, but Su Yuan unexpectedly discovered that his simulated realm didn't reach the Primordial Ultimate Great Luo Golden Immortal level, but instead reached the peak Mixed-origin Great Luo Golden Immortal level.
In that mont, Su Yuan's expression showed sudden understanding. The entries indeed had upper limits. For [Great Being's Form], the entry limit was lv9, capable of simulating the aura pressure of a peak Mixed-origin Great Luo Golden Immortal at most. To go further, he clearly needed to upgrade the [Great Being's Form] entry to lv10!
Su Yuan had anticipated this;
otherwise, Eternal Entries wouldn't need to exist.
Although the simulated aura pressure only reached the Mixed-origin Great Luo Golden Immortal level, it was enough for Su Yuan's divine sense to easily penetrate Sima Nan's surface defenses.
The mont Su Yuan's divine sense contacted Sima Nan's body, he unleashed the Abyss Will's ability—Abyssal Corruption!
Terrifying abyssal power flowed along Sima Nan's body, entering his system, passing through nurous ridians, and making contact with Sima Nan's soul body!
Threads of black energy gradually began corrupting from the surface of Sima Nan's soul.
Sima Nan's soul unconsciously frowned, but since he was currently at the critical mont of ntal breakthrough, he didn't even know he was being corrupted!
Even if he knew, Sima Nan wouldn't have any spare attention to deal with the sudden mysterious corruption in his soul at such a ti.
Bit by bit, abyssal power seeped into Sima Nan's soul, even gradually moving toward the true spirit deep within his soul!
The Lord of the Heavenly Demons sensed the presence of the abyssal power, a flash of astonishnt appearing in his eyes.
"What kind of power is this? So evil, so demonic! What is he doing? Is he trying to enslave Sima Nan?"
The Lord of the Heavenly Demons looked toward Su Yuan's direction with disbelief.
The appearance of this power was completely unexpected, more demonic than the demonic path itself. Just glimpsing a tiny bit of the abyssal power, he could already feel its terrifying corruption and foul energy—evil, filthy, yet possessing dreadful corruption and assimilation properties. Simultaneously, the essence of this power was extrely sophisticated;
he even faintly sensed a thread of threat!
How could this be sothing a Great Luo Golden Immortal could possess? It was completely overpowered!
But the facts were right before his eyes;
he had to believe it!
For a mont, it seed he was witnessing the birth of a supre Demon Lord for the demonic path!
The Lord of the Heavenly Demons anticipated the subsequent changes. If Su Yuan could truly enslave a complete Mixed-origin Golden Immortal while only at the Great Luo level, then he felt the current Lord of the Demon Realm could abdicate. If the Demon Lord was unwilling, he wouldn't mind cleaning house.
Su Yuan didn't know the Heavenly Demon's thoughts, completely imrsed in the process of corrupting Sima Nan.
Thanks to his outstanding comprehension of ntal rules, he beca exceptionally skilled at soul corruption.
After a full hour, the corruption progress finally reached a critical point—one percent!
When it crossed this threshold, obvious changes appeared on Sima Nan's body. His magical power began carrying threads of evil abyssal energy, his body started showing signs of abyssal transformation, his physical form slowly strengthening but also mutating toward distortion. Two horns grew from his head, carved with sinister abyssal demon patterns.
If a living being showed such changes, it indicated deep entanglent with abyssal power. The being would inevitably resist this transformation toward aberration.
But Sima Nan was currently breaking through, at his most vulnerable mont, completely unaware of the changes he was undergoing.
He might even attribute these changes to the demonic ntal trial, making him ignore the abnormalities on his body even more.
Su Yuan felt the operation was proceeding very smoothly.
This was his first ti using the Abyss Will's thods to corrupt others. He never expected his first use would be on a Mixed-origin Golden Immortal, and going so smoothly at that.
As Su Yuan gradually transmitted more abyssal power, Sima Nan's corruption process intensified. With each one percent increase, Sima Nan's mutation beca more obvious.
His changes finally attracted other cultivators' attention.
Zhuge Tao turned his head and looked at Sima Nan with confusion. After careful examination, he finally realized what Sima Nan was experiencing.
"He's trying to break through to the Mixed-origin ntal State cultivation? Actually attempting a breakthrough in public, how reckless. But what's with the mutation on his body?"
Zhuge Tao imdiately attempted to intervene, sending streams of astral wind toward Sima Nan, but they were imdiately blocked by the black shield appearing on Sima Nan's surface.
A rough estimate suggested breaking through this defense would take at least three years!
"Forget it, soone like Sima Nan couldn't possibly breakthrough. Even if he does, he won't catch up to my progress anymore!"
Zhuge Tao's expression shifted, and he imdiately accelerated, pushing forward toward the finish line at full speed.
Su Yuan didn't care what others thought. Such a heaven-sent opportunity was far too rare.
Su Yuan continuously employed abyssal secret techniques. Within just one month, he had corrupted ten percent of the soul!
At this level, Sima Nan was basically abyssalized. Breaking free from the abyssal corruption would be extrely difficult now.
The abyssal corruption officially invaded Sima Nan's true spirit, beginning to corrupt it.
Within the demonic ntal world.
Sima Nan remained imrsed in the scenarios woven by the Heavenly Demon, unable to extricate himself. The demonic ntal world with doubled difficulty felt almost identical to the real world—whether in terms of five senses, divine sense, power perception, or cognition, there was no difference from the external world.
Spending a lifeti here would be essentially no different from spending it in the real world, making it extrely difficult for breakthrough practitioners to escape the demonic ntal worlds.
But on this day, Sima Nan discovered strange changes occurring to himself. Fleshy sprouts grew from his arms, thighs, and back, black energy began emanating from his body, and his power strangely expanded sowhat. These various changes made Sima Nan feel extrely uneasy!
"What's happening to ?" Sima Nan frowned and muttered to himself.
Sima Nan mobilized the mixed-origin magical power within his body and instantly cleared away those abnormalities, but he didn't relax.
He imdiately went out and found a renowned dical sage in that world, requesting an examination of his body.
At this mont, the Heavenly Demon playing the dical sage was very surprised by Sima Nan's question. This was a demonic ntal world he had constructed—how could there be physical abnormalities?
The Lord of the Heavenly Demons examined Sima Nan's ntal body and said, "You have no problems!"
"Really?" Sima Nan expressed doubt.
Suddenly, a tentacle sprouted from Sima Nan's eye, creating an extrely horrifying scene.
Sima Nan frowned, shook his magical power, and cleared the tentacle. Then he looked at the Heavenly Demon and asked, "dical Sage, is this really not a problem?"
The Heavenly Demon fell silent.
