Chunibyo in Cultivation World

As Li Tianwei rampaged within the Same-Origin Connection of the Evil Demons, countless demons kept crying out.

Covering the entire cultivation world, a certain existence that had long sealed itself and hidden deep within all things quietly awakened.

Precisely because of its awakening, the seal over the cultivation world began to show the faintest trace of fluctuation.

As for Li Tianwei, whose actions had triggered such a massive disturbance, he had no interest in studying the cause. In his heart, he merely wished to properly redeem these Evil Demons.

Unexpectedly, while at first those demons willingly submitted, later they began to resist.

”Why do you reject it! Clearly, if you surrender to me, I will guide you toward virtue—good for demons, and good for us humans as well!”

”Why must you refuse!”

Feeling the resistance from those Evil Demons, Li Tianwei’s expression grew exceedingly displeased, a faint trace of ferocity glimmering in his eyes.

”Why bother? I merely wish to redeem you, that’s all.”

Li Tianwei once again heightened the power of the Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity.

In reality, if Li Tianwei were to face this many Evil Demons, some of them strong enough to command Union or Tribulation Transcendence Realm powers, he would truly have no way to handle them—he might even be slain by them.

Yet within this Same-Origin Connection, what linked them was the strength of one’s mind and heart.

As for Li Tianwei—his persistence and confidence were beyond measure, an utterly extraordinary existence.

He considered himself absolutely lucid, with perfect awareness and reasoning, unshakably confident—nothing in the world could sway him.

It was precisely by relying on this unfathomable strength of his heart that, within the Same-Origin Connection, his Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity was magnified countless times over.

This could be seen from the vast starry river and ocean that surged into the Same-Origin Connection.

For this reason, Li Tianwei could stand against the many Evil Demons within it.

If this were the real world, he would have been torn to pieces already.

When those Evil Demons witnessed Li Tianwei’s bizarrely powerful spiritual force, they were greatly shocked—for in the eyes of the Evil Demons, no one in this cultivation world could wield such a power. The sudden appearance of one who could made them tremble and speculate endlessly.

”A monster… a monster! Could it be that this world still harbors an existence whose mental power surpasses even that of us Heart Demons?”

”This power…”

The power of the Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity launched another counterattack.

Even though the demons within the Same-Origin Connection were continually bathed by its purifying light and more or less affected, at the same time, their consciousness received a response.

The being they had been calling to had shown signs of fully awakening.

A wave of pressure descended invisibly—the sky above the cultivation world was veiled by a strange membrane, faintly visible and illusory.

Any cultivator above the Out-of-Body Realm could sense it—that was the barrier the Evil Demons had used to lock away the higher powers of the cultivation world, sealing all combat strength above that realm.

Now, however, there appeared the faintest sign of disturbance.

How many cultivators did the cultivation world hold? How many were of the Out-of-Body Realm?

Since their breakthroughs, they had been trapped under the demons’ seal—equivalent to the severing of their Dao path. Eternal life unreachable, the Immortal Way crumbled before them.

These cultivators all possessed immense talent, and though their path was blocked, countless of them kept attempting again and again to break through that barrier.

Yet no matter how they tried, not even the slightest shift occurred.

But today, that eerie seal quivered faintly.

At that instant, the strongest cultivators of the Four Great Domains all raised their heads, gazing toward the heavens and that invisible membrane.

”This is an opportunity.”

That thought arose in the hearts of all.

Just like the Sacred Land of Lingxu, they could gather vast resources upon Bai Muxu, attempting to test the barrier by striving from Spirit Transformation toward Out-of-Body.

What Lingxu conceived of, the other great powers of the cultivation world had too. Many Heaven-Defying Geniuses had already made attempts to shatter it.

These were the repeated trials of every faction…

All four sacred lands of the Northern Spirit Domain had tried, as had the Demonic Sect Territories. The other three domains’ holy and religious lands alike—none had ceased striving to break this demonic seal.

Of course, some forces and experts had given up, choosing instead to surrender to the Evil Demons—each following their own path.

But today, through Li Tianwei’s impact upon the Same-Origin Connection of the Evil Demons, countless of them were purified, even forced to awaken some unknown existence, causing the seal to loosen.

At this point, no one needed to take the lead anymore.

Across the cultivation world, innumerable cultivators above the Out-of-Body Realm—various Tribulation Transcendence, Union, even beyond Tribulation—instinctively gathered their strength to seize this chance.

A glimpse of eternal life, the Immortal Path revealed itself…

The cultivation path had always been one of seizing Heaven’s fortune. For the sake of the Dao, they could fight through secret realms or duel to the death.

Now, the chance to unseal lay before them—how could they let it slip away?

”I can feel it—the seal is loosening!”

Those few Out-of-Body Ancestors who had been freed from the chains and shackles after Li Tianwei slew Zhang Linyuan immediately sat cross-legged, closing their eyes to gather their power.

Deep within the Sacred Land of Lingxu, Bai Muxu also began his breakthrough toward the Out-of-Body Realm.

Due to his prior tribulation, he had long been suppressing his Spirit Transformation Realm cultivation for two hundred years, condensing it over and over, believing he could thus cleave open the door that the Evil Demons had sealed beyond that realm.

Yet the deeper he delved, the less of a crack he found.

To break through would mean being trapped forever at that level—hence Bai Muxu’s deep unwillingness.

But now it was different. That faint loosening… showed the possibility of shattering all constraints.

Around him, the many ancestors of the Sacred Land of Lingxu who had planned to assist his breakthrough likewise sat cross-legged.

They, too, felt it.

Because of this sudden fluctuation in the seal—

The plan that had been forming among the three major holy lands to completely annihilate Li Tianwei, after Zhang Linyuan had revealed his unparalleled talent, was now wholly delayed.

Compared to Li Tianwei, the opportunity revealed by the demonic seal’s flaw was far more important.

Especially for those Tribulation Transcendence Ancestors—after their breakthroughs, according to the order of things thousands of years ago, several should have already ascended. Yet the demonic seal came, preventing them from becoming Immortals, forcing them to remain in the mortal realm. How could they possibly accept that?

Each of these cultivators was once a peerless Heaven-Defying Genius who dominated an age.

Thus, under this invisible ripple, the collective might of the cultivation world’s strongest converged and struck toward the Evil Demons’ seal.

If one were to understand this from the perspective of people from Li Tianwei’s original world, then the massive upheaval in the cultivation world right now was akin to Li Tianwei’s attack upon the Same-Origin Connection of Evil Demons—making that once invincible “boss” reveal its health bar.

Once the health bar appeared, countless dragon-slaying heroes would charge forth to attack the dragon.

Boom——

Thus, under Li Tianwei’s unseen guidance, countless terrifying auras across the cultivation world erupted together, blasting toward the demonic seal above the heavens.
