Chapter 165: The Weak Demon Plane
The purple-black speck of light that had been forcibly stripped and sealed was still trembling slightly at his fingertips, emitting a loathsome aura of corruption and chaos. Inside, the miniature phantom of a Fallen Angel twisted and struggled, yet it could not break free from the imprisonment Lei Chen had imposed using the laws of the plane.
Lei Chen's gaze was cold, as if looking at a dead object. This so-called "Martial Soul Seed" was essentially an extremely insidious plane coordinate, a pathfinding stone cast by the Demon Plane toward the Douluo Plane, intended to quietly establish an anchor and open a passage for subsequent erosion and invasion.
Looking at the plane coordinate in his hand, Lei Chen had already reached a decision.
Had it been when he had just taken over the authority of the Plane Master and his strength was not yet fully realized, he would have been extremely cautious when facing the coordinates of another plane, never daring to easily open a spatial passage.
After all, the universe was vast, with countless planes and vast differences in strength. Rashly opening a gate, if the other side was an existence even more powerful and terrifying than the Abyss Plane, would undoubtedly be like inviting a wolf into one's home and courting destruction.
But today was different!
The current Lei Chen, after successfully destroying the Abyss Plane, reforging the Ice God's Positions of the God of Thunder and the Ice God, and having his own status promoted along with the plane, had seen his strength soar to a staggering height, just one step away from becoming a Half-step God King.
Coupled with the Life Guardian Divine Armor and the heavenly saint abyss-splitting halberd in his hands—two Super Divine Artifacts—his true combat power was enough to shake the universe.
Moreover, within the Douluo Plane, he was not the only god-level powerhouse. The Xue Di had reclaimed the position of the ice god as a First-rank Deity. In addition, there was the Holy Dharma God achieved by Electrolux, Bi Ji who had been promoted to the God of the Forest, and other newly ascended god-level powerhouses like Di Tian, the Ice Empress, the Du Busi, and Kong Deming, who were all outstanding figures.
With such a profound foundation, looking across the vast universe, Lei Chen truly feared no single independent plane, except for the God Realm system that hung high above many planes, possessed perfected laws, and was presided over by God Kings.
Facing other planes below the God Realm, he had enough confidence and strength to take the initiative to attack rather than defend passively.
With his mind made up, Lei Chen no longer hesitated.
With a flick of his finger, he suspended the sealed purple-black speck of light in the void before him. Then, he slowly raised his hands, his ten fingers dancing rapidly like playing invisible harp strings, tracing out seven-colored runes containing profound laws of space.
The majestic and vast source power of the plane surged from his body, producing a strong resonance with the spatial rules of the entire plane.
"Using their own spear to strike their own shield! Plane coordinate, open for me!" With a low shout from Lei Chen, the purple-black speck of light before him suddenly erupted with a blinding radiance, and the Demon Plane coordinate information contained within was instantly triggered and amplified.
At the same time, the spatial power of the Douluo Plane channeled by Lei Chen, like a hound that had found its target, precisely bit onto this wisp of otherworldly aura and used it as a guide to forcibly tear through the space-time barrier!
"Rip—!"
A tooth-aching tearing sound rang out, not acting upon the physical world but echoing at the level of laws.
The void before Lei Chen was seen being torn open like a gap by a pair of invisible giant hands. Chaotic dark purple and deep red energy flows swirled around the edges of the rift, emitting otherworldly law fluctuations filled with sulfur and destruction, starkly different from the vibrant vitality of the Douluo Plane.
A dark red spatial portal, about several meters high and twisting unstably, slowly took shape. Inside the gate was a deep darkness where distorted shadows and burning rivers of lava were faintly visible—that was the sight of the Demon Plane!
At the moment the spatial gate was forcibly opened, Lei Chen's eyes narrowed, and the methods he had prepared were instantly activated.
He did not step in directly. Instead, he manipulated the laws of heaven and earth of the Douluo Plane, transforming them into an invisible yet majestic seven-colored torrent that followed the newly stabilized spatial passage and surged boldly toward the Demon Plane on the other side!
This was like opening the opponent's city gates during a confrontation between two armies and then directly sending the most elite law forces of one's own side as the vanguard to forcibly invade the opponent's heartland, engaging in the most fundamental collision and erosion at the level of laws!
"Buzz—!"
Sure enough, as soon as the law torrent of the Douluo Plane invaded, it immediately met with the instinctive and fierce resistance of the Demon Plane.
A force of plane laws filled with chaos, corruption, temptation, and destruction, like a provoked beast, converged from all directions of the Demon Plane and slammed hard into the seven-colored torrent.
Two completely different plane laws engaged in a silent but extremely perilous confrontation at the entrance of the spatial passage. The dark red destructive energy attempted to pollute and assimilate the seven-colored light, while the seven-colored light radiated the majestic power of order, life, creation, and thunder, constantly purifying and dispelling the chaos from the other side.
However, the intensity of this resistance, as perceived by Lei Chen, caused a slight curve to appear at the corner of his mouth.
"Impressive in appearance, but hollow within."
In his perception, although the counterattack of the Demon Plane's laws seemed grand and full of violent aura, its fundamental strength was far inferior to the abyssal laws when they had first invaded the Douluo Plane.
At that time, the Abyss Plane possessed a Plane Master at the status of a First-level God, the Tian Shen, and also wielded the Super Divine Artifact, the heavenly saint abyss-splitting halberd. Its plane laws were condensed and extremely aggressive.
But the Demon Plane before him, though its law resistance was desperate, appeared scattered and disordered, lacking a truly powerful core will for coordination and enhancement.
Lei Chen's spiritual power rapidly spread and sensed along the lines of the law confrontation, instantly spying on the general foundation of this plane.
"The status of the Plane Master... is only equivalent to the level of a Second-Tier God? And there is no clear autonomous consciousness, just relying on the plane's instinct to drive the laws to resist?"
Lei Chen quickly reached a conclusion, and his heart became even more settled.
A plane with a status of only a Second-Tier God and an unawakened, chaotic plane consciousness could not possibly compare in overall strength to the Abyss Plane, which once had a First-level God with a Super Divine Artifact presiding over it.
Perhaps this Demon Plane had unique aspects in terms of guile and corrupting the mind, but in terms of absolute power levels and plane volume, it was completely crushed by the current Douluo Plane.
Having confirmed the other party's magnitude, the last trace of concern in Lei Chen's heart vanished.
He looked down at the dark red spatial gate that was constantly twisting and trying to close but was being held open by the Douluo Plane's laws, as well as the demonic scenes behind the gate that seemed even more frantically agitated due to fear, and muttered coldly to himself:
"With this kind of level, you actually dared to eye my plane. Since you've delivered yourself to my doorstep, I shall accept it with thanks."
As his voice fell, he already had a plan in mind.
