Chapter 181: The Most Ferocious Spirit in History

“Damn it, how could this happen!”
All the powerful members of the Supernatural Ability Association hidden in the shadows were shocked. They never expected that the corpse of this deity, which they had used as a bait, would instantly transform into a ferocious virtual god spirit and wreak havoc everywhere.
“Stop him! We must stop him! If he gets out of here and breaks through the spatial gate to the mortal world, the entire Earth will be destroyed!”
One of the powerful members of the association rushed forward, activating his domain and charging at the monstrous spirit.
“Hmph, you’re seeking death.”
The virtual god spirit spoke aloud. Then, with a punch, it shattered the domain of that powerful member along with his body.
But in the next moment, the flesh and bones of that powerful member rapidly reassembled in the air, forming his human shape again. It turned out to be a warrior who had mastered the Law of Immortality.
“The Law of Immortality… No being can truly die, not even deities.”
The virtual god spirit seemed to have adapted. It threw another punch, unleashing a surge of the Law of Virtual Gods that shattered the immortal warrior once more. But this time, the Law of Immortality was broken beyond repair—death was irreversible.
“Bad news! This guy has intelligence and knows how to use his own laws!”
Several other powerful members hidden in the shadows were horrified.
“This world is too strange. Although it allows me to revive, the eerie mist around me keeps eroding my mind.”
The monstrous spirit muttered to itself. Meanwhile, the huge hole on its forehead healed completely, hiding its virtual god essence.
“I must leave here quickly and find a place to cultivate in peace. Otherwise, I’ll truly turn into this shadowy god body and lose my identity entirely.”
The virtual god spirit struck upward, destroying the roof of the auction hall. Then it leaped out of the auction hall.
“The direction of the spatial gate is here. I need to take control of this spatial crystal as soon as possible… Wow! What a magnificent virtual divine artifact! The Law of Virtual Gods within it is almost overflowing. It’s just one step away from becoming a true divine artifact!”
In the next moment, the monstrous spirit saw the glorious temple standing not far away.
“The spatial gate is right next to that virtual divine artifact. I’ll get both at the same time.”
A fierce glint appeared in its eyes. With a wave of its hand, countless buildings were destroyed, and countless supernatural ability users died.
“Destroy it!”
The virtual god spirit punched the temple of the virtual divine artifact. With a loud crash, the entire temple began to tremble.
“What a powerful virtual divine artifact! It’s even stronger than I imagined! It surpasses even ordinary low-tier divine artifacts.”
Blood-red light flashed in the monster’s eyes, gradually replaced by a faint golden hue.
“Having just revived, I need such a divine artifact to refine myself and replenish my laws. If I can assimilate this virtual divine artifact and seize its Law of Virtual Gods, I’ll surely regain my understanding of the path of deities and form a divine essence!”

The Virtual God Fiend pondered for a moment, then stretched out his hand and punched the Glorious Temple once again. This time, the entire temple began to shake.
“Pfft!”
Inside the Glorious Temple, the one in charge of the temple, Floating Cloud, spat out a mouthful of blood and was severely injured in an instant. But the next moment, an immense force of faith flowed into his body, instantly healing his wounds.
“Floating Cloud, hold on a little longer,” Chen Xiao’s voice appeared in Floating Cloud’s mind. Hearing this, Floating Cloud’s eyes lit up slightly. In his eyes, as long as Chen Xiao was there, nothing was unsolvable.
“Young master, no problem!”
A faint smile appeared on Floating Cloud’s face. The five laws he had already grasped began to function instantly, flowing into the Glorious Temple. Immediately, the entire temple was filled with brilliant light.
This temple was built jointly by five divine disciples, including Nest Trace, using countless resources and treasures from the main god’s realm. It was extremely sturdy, even surpassing ordinary divine artifacts.
Moreover, this treasure contained the intentions left by Nest Trace and the others. As long as Floating Cloud activated these intentions, he could unleash its full power as a Virtual Divine Artifact.
At present, the high-ranking members of the Glorious Temple—Chen Jianzhou, Wan Hu, Stedley, Shadow Wing, and others—had already left via the teleportation array in the underground world and gone to the Thousand Souls Realm. Floating Cloud could thus unleash its full power without any concerns.
Chen Xiao, hidden not far from this fiend, watched coldly as it displayed its might.
“You are already dead. Your revival is merely due to the strange mist in this world of supernatural powers altering your form of life. What controls you now is just a trace of your original consciousness. Once that consciousness is completely eroded by the mist, you will become a true fiend.”
Through his calculations, Chen Xiao had somewhat figured out the cause of this fiend’s existence—it was all due to the strange gray mist that perpetually shrouded this world of supernatural powers. This eerie mist seemed to possess some mysterious power that could revive dead bodies and turn them into fiends, even those of gods.
Chen Xiao also understood that dead beings were simply dead. Their souls either entered the underworld to become ghosts or dispersed in the world. Under such circumstances, revival was impossible, not even for gods.
Although this fiend currently possessed intelligence, it was merely due to the vast consciousness left by the former god. But now, the surrounding gray mist was constantly eroding its consciousness. Once those intentions were completely destroyed, it would also become a true fiend.
It was in the Flame Soul Realm, this sunny area, where the gray mist had been largely driven away. If it were in the depths of the world of supernatural powers, all the intentions within this fiend’s body would likely be completely erased in an instant.
Of course, if this fiend were to go and seize a space crystal now, leave the world of supernatural powers, and find a place to cultivate properly, it might indeed have a chance to reunite its soul using that consciousness and achieve true resurrection.

But now, his attention was entirely drawn to this vast virtual divine artifact, and he didn’t even notice his own situation. He didn’t even realize that he no longer had a soul. This time, Chen Xiao made up his mind and gave most of the stored faith power to Fu Yun. With this faith power as a backing, Fu Yun could rely on the Virtual Divine Artifact Temple to deal with this virtual divine beast. Watching the virtual divine beast, which was acting like a madman and frantically attacking the temple, Chen Xiao shook his head slightly. “He still has a trace of consciousness and retains all the wisdom from his life. If I summon a divine master now, it’s likely to scare him away in an instant…” Chen Xiao understood that with the power of a divine master’s clone, he could subdue this beast at once, but after all, the clone had no real combat strength. If the true god’s power appeared, it would probably scare him away immediately, making it not worth it. So now, Chen Xiao was planning to subdue it once he turned into a true beast. … “Elders, what should we do?” At this moment, many domain experts also gathered in the sky above, discussing strategies. “Form a formation to enclose this beast along with the Glory Temple. That Glory Temple can withstand attacks from virtual divine-level beasts—it must be an extraordinary treasure.” “Good!” Around them, seven domain experts quickly gathered together, forming a Big Dipper pattern. “Big Dipper Spirit, Seal the Seven Stars!” The leading elder suddenly shouted. A surge of starlight power broke through spatial barriers, condensing into seven giant North Star symbols in the air, held above their heads by the seven people in the formation. Then, the seven people quickly flew above the beast and the Glory Temple. Their hands moved swiftly through the air, and strange seals flew out from their hands. Immediately afterward, the starlight above their heads poured down, forming a huge barrier that enclosed the virtual divine beast along with the Glory Temple. Inside this barrier, it seemed like a separate world, completely isolating the outside from the inside. “Damn these seven idiots!” Upon seeing this, Chen Xiao cursed loudly. The formation laid down by these seven domain experts completely separated the beast from the world of supernatural abilities. There was already little gray mist in this city of glory, and this barrier further prevented the gray mist from eroding the beast’s consciousness. In that instant, Fu Yun’s pressure soared. He had to endure attacks from the beast while also defending against the attacks from the external formation. As for the beast, it paid no attention to this formation at all. In its eyes, as long as it obtained this virtual divine artifact, the external formation posed no threat to it. … A shadow passed over Chen Xiao’s face. Suddenly, a crystal-clear snowflake appeared in his hand—it was the divine artifact, Snowflakes Drifting. “Since you want to deal with the Glory Temple, then I won’t be polite.” Chen Xiao’s body disappeared again, leaving only a slight ripple in the air. “Everyone, open your domains and protect the seven elders with all your strength.”

On the other side, a dozen or so domain masters floated in the air, constantly protecting these elders who had set up the grand array. The Seven-Star Yuanling Array was originally planned to be used against the Temple of Glory, but now with the emergence of a fierce spirit that had surpassed their limits, these seven people were extremely vulnerable. “Die!” Chen Xiao’s body instantly appeared behind one of the elders. Thanks to the divine artifacts fused within him, along with the protection of his main divine entity and the Yu Zi Jue, even the domain masters could not detect his presence. Hidden, Chen Xiao waved his hand, and a crystal-clear snowflake shot out, instantly severing one of the elders’ heads. In the next moment, the elder let out a scream as his body withered at a visible speed; all the laws and life forces within his body were drawn away by the array, leading to his complete death. With one elder fallen due to the array, the other six also suffered backlash from it, screaming as their own laws and life forces were drained. Chen Xiao was too fast—so fast that no one had time to react. “What’s going on!?” The domain masters guarding the seven elders were in complete chaos. They had no idea what was happening; before they could even see anyone, they saw their elders’ heads cut off, while the others were severely weakened by the array’s backlash.
