The divine weapons are no longer under control.
Not just the Gravity Orb, but all of them.
At this moment, Chen Fan was filled with immense panic.
The betrayal of the divine weapons instantly stripped him of all his confidence.
"Why?"
Amidst his internal turmoil, Chen Fan finally understood.
Everything he possessed now, apart from the Great Dao he had comprehended himself, came from the divine weapons.
How else could a seventh-tier being defy an eighth-tier being? It was thanks to the divine weapons!
With the divine weapons as his ultimate trump card, Chen Fan felt invincible.
No matter what happened, he was not afraid.
Because the power of the divine weapons gave him the confidence to face any enemy.
"But..."
Now, he had learned to think.
What if, one day, all the divine weapons betrayed him?
In the end, he was not the true master of the Seven Divine Weapons, even though they had now recognized him as their master.
But what if... that person returned one day?
What would the Seven Divine Weapons choose?
"I understand."
At this moment, he finally realized.
When his trump card became someone else's ability, this crisis would always exist.
Not to mention anything else, take the Gravity Orb at this moment.
If, in the midst of a great battle, the Gravity Orb suddenly became uncontrollable, the consequences... Chen Fan could not bear to think about it.
"Very well."
Looking at the still fluctuating Gravity Orb, Chen Fan had a plan in mind.
He bore the powerful Great Dao rules of Life and Death, Yin and Yang, Dark Water, and Lightning... seven in total.
Even without using the divine weapons, he possessed sufficient combat power.
What he lacked now was a sure-kill trump card.
"I need a trump card."
A trump card other than the divine weapons.
After pondering for a long time, Chen Fan finally made a decision.
Change... he needed to change himself.
At the very least, he needed to change the confidence that stemmed from the divine weapons.
"Come out."
With a thought, all the divine weapons flew out from within him.
Six divine weapons.
The Heavenly Crown, forbidding flight.
The Golden Silk Cicada Robe, for defense.
The Dragon Pattern Compass, to ward off misfortune and disrupt destiny.
The Space Boots, for spatial leaps.
The Heavenly Cloud Sword, the foremost in offensive power.
The Gravity Orb, for the domain of gravity.
The six divine weapons floated silently. Any one of them, if revealed, would cause a sea of blood.
At this moment, apart from the Gravity Orb, the six divine weapons floated quietly.
After a long while, Chen Fan closed his eyes.
This was the first time he had allowed all his divine weapons to leave his body.
Guardians, for now.
This time, he was determined to change.
Within his body...
Boom.
All seven top-tier rules vibrated.
The very aura of the entire Demon Realm was stirred.
After all, even among demons, there were different classifications.
Lightning demons, fire demons, earth demons... diverse.
Of course, due to the Demon Lord, the entire Demon Realm was built around the Demon Lord's Great Dao, with other powers serving as branches.
Rumble.
At this moment, the entire Demon Realm began to shake.
The seven top-tier Great Daos were stirred, rolling like seven giant dragons within the Demon Realm.
"The City Lord is comprehending again?"
"Such immense power..."
Everyone was familiar with the City Lord's seven top-tier Great Daos.
If such a commotion, shaking the entire Demon Realm, could be caused, it could only be the City Lord.
Soon, everyone closed their eyes.
There was nothing to be curious about.
...
Chen Fan began to comprehend himself.
The human body is the greatest treasure.
At this moment, Chen Fan began to tap into his own potential.
Rumble!
The seven Great Daos surged rapidly within his body.
Having been stripped from the world long ago, he was now a complete entity in himself.
"What if the human body is compared to a world?" This was Chen Fan's thought.
Let's not forget, he was a peerless prodigy.
Even without the combat enhancement of the divine weapons, Chen Fan himself was worthy of being called a prodigy.
Genius was abundant in this chaos, but few could be called prodigies.
And Chen Fan was worthy of the title 'prodigy'.
He needed his own trump card.
The seven top-tier Great Daos coursed through his limbs and bones.
His physical body, having been tempered and forged countless times, had little impurity left to expel.
This was a flawless physical body.
Yes, a favorite among those who coveted possession.
"What should I do?" he began to ponder.
Merely circulating power was useless.
He needed trump cards, he needed to continuously strengthen himself.
The seven top-tier Great Daos seemed to be the limit.
Now, he either had to comprehend other Great Daos, or... on the foundation of these seven Great Daos, develop different paths.
The Dao is walked.
Nothing is ever static; from one Dao, myriad paths can emerge.
"Let's try combining them."
Chen Fan began to experiment on his own body.
The seven Great Daos fused instantly.
Boom.
The moment they touched, his internal organs exploded.
"So difficult, *cough cough*." He spat blood.
Even the Great Daos of a world could not be fused.
Let alone his mere physical body.
What about fusing them two by two?
Dark Water, fused.
Bang.
Another failure.
"Then, let's develop them deeper."
What is the end of lightning? Unknown... let's try explosion.
What is the end of water... water nurtures all things without contention; what if it calms down?
Non-contention, naturally, is also a Dao.
This trial lasted for several months.
The entire Demon Realm had almost become an empty shell.
Apart from the world itself, all the power of the Great Daos had completely vanished.
Boom.
A deafening roar echoed through heaven and earth.
A peerless demonic shadow was locked in combat with an Immortal Emperor wielding a black and gold great staff.
It was Old Demon Chu.
"Myriad Demons Fist."
At this moment, Old Demon Chu was boundless and violent.
His fists, filled with demonic shadows, tore through heaven and earth.
"Come."
The Immortal Emperor abandoned his divine weapons.
At this moment, his entire body glowed. A majority of the three hundred and sixty light orbs within his physical body had been ignited. With the power of his unparalleled physical body, he met the demonic fist head-on.
Rumble.
The clash between the two instantly drew all attention.
"Impressive."
Even seasoned eighth-tier Great Emperors like Lie Tian subconsciously sighed.
Whether it was Old Demon Chu or the Immortal Emperor, they were both juniors in their eyes.
Both at the seventh tier, their combat power alone was infinitely close to the eighth tier.
Such individuals would be considered prodigies in any era.
They were too young.
The battle between the two was fierce.
Although they did not intend to kill, neither held back their blows.
Their close-quarters combat was relentless, with no reservations.
"Haha."
Old Demon Chu laughed heartily, "Now, I am a top-tier combatant."
Indeed.
After absorbing the Great Dao power of almost the entire Demon Realm, Old Demon Chu was now a supreme existence.
The feeling was incredibly exhilarating.
The Immortal Emperor was also happy for him, and thus fought even more fiercely.
The two fought with increasing excitement.
"Let's go, fight outside the realm."
As their excitement grew,
Boom.
Without any further words, the two of them directly rushed out of the Demon Realm.
Within the realm, everyone was speechless.
These two fellows.
The world was in turmoil, on the verge of being assimilated by the chaos.
Xi Qiu frowned, "Suppress the Great Daos. The City Lord has not yet awakened."
At this time, the world must not collapse.
Without certainty of whether it would interfere with the City Lord, the Demon Realm absolutely could not collapse.
"Yes."
Figures shot up into the sky.
Great Daos crisscrossed, stabilizing the world.
Meanwhile, Chen Fan had fallen into a state of madness.
"No, still not right..."
He had tried hundreds of methods.
Yet, none had worked.
He still had not found the path forward.
