Stealing in front of his own face.
Claiming to have a heart of darkness, Shen Ni experienced the feeling of the Dark Demon God.
This guy is the real deal when it comes to being ruthless!
"Thief, stop right there!"
Shen Ni roared furiously, shouldering the Destruction World Mill as he chased after Xuanqing.
Of course, what Xuanqing stole wasn't this Destruction Treasure.
This thing had already been refined by Shen Ni; killing Shen Ni wouldn't burst the equipment, and the treasure would escape on its own.
Rather than strenuously and thanklessly trying to steal this thing, better to directly steal the eyes of the Destruction Demon God.
Go to the Dao Realm and digest the great dao of the Destruction Demon God, and it'd be easier to deal with the Destruction World Mill next time.
"Those aren't your eyeballs, what are you so excited about?"
These words made Shen Ni laugh in anger as he retorted, "Those aren't your eyeballs either, what are you stealing?"
"I like it!"
"If you've got the ability, steal it back!"
Xuanqing raised his hand, the Black Gold Imperial Sword sliced through the air, and the infinite great power poured out, tearing open this realm of dao and forcibly returning Shen Ni to reality.
"Goodbye, goodbye."
"Looking for trouble? Someone will take care of you, just enjoy."
Having gotten what he wanted, Xuanqing didn't bother with Shen Ni any longer and turned to leave.
Anyway, he couldn't be killed, and dealing with the Destruction World Mill was just too tedious.
It's better to leave dealing with Shen Ni to the professionals.
"Shen Ni, we meet again."
"What kind of death would you like this time?"
A calm yet domineering voice echoed in Chaos, as a vast Demon Heaven appeared out of Chaos.
Luo Hou, wielding the God Slaying Spear, unleashed an infinite killing aura across space and time.
"You keep popping up everywhere I go."
"Tell me, are you trying to give me more work?" Luo Hou was quite dissatisfied with Shen Ni's disruptive actions.
He was preparing things for the Heaven Creation Demon Tribulation.
Shen Ni causing trouble in the territory of the "Second Demon Ancestor" was just delaying their grand cause of flourishing the Demon Path.
No more words, just kill him!
Demon clouds surged, and demon thunder roared.
The God Slaying Spear ferociously charged forward, its sound like a dragon's roar and tiger's roar, its momentum causing Chaos to churn, its power terrifying Shen Ni!
Xuanqing turned back, and saw Shen Ni suppressed by the vast power of Demon Heaven, a smile in his eyes.
Spending so much time with you.
I was waiting for Luo Hou.
What are you waiting for?
"Luo Hou, why are you everywhere?!"
Seeing Luo Hou gave Shen Ni a headache; this guy was even more annoying than Hong Jun and Yang Mei.
He had died in Luo Hou's hands almost as many times as he had died at the hands of Hong Jun and Yang Mei combined.
"This weapon in my hand is called: God Slaying, no pun intended, it's made just for killing you."
Luo Hou was always so blunt.
The terrifying assault of the God Slaying Spear forced Shen Ni to retreat further.
This did surprise Xuanqing.
"The name of an Innate Treasure sure holds true, to withstand the assault of a Da Luo Supreme and not be killed instantly."
When Xuanqing saw Shen Ni crushed by the Destruction World Mill only to resurrect and fight Luo Hou again, he was utterly shocked.
Is this even possible?
So, if you end yourself first, your opponent can never kill you, right?
Xuanqing gained a new appreciation for Shen Ni's ability to endure and withstand.
Even Luo Hou found this method of choosing one's own way to die amusing.
"Is this the Destruction World Mill or a Corpse Destruction Mill?"
"Since it's an Innate Treasure, of course, it has its wonderful uses, what's it to you?"
Shen Ni was stubborn, killing himself and then reviving again.
Who says destruction must only destroy the great worlds.
Using it on oneself isn't the same?
Killing oneself, restarting a life, the mill turns, everything begins anew!
How is this not destruction?
As long as he doesn't die by Luo Hou's hands, he can keep fighting!
"Come on, kill me! Don't think just because you are a Da Luo Supreme I'll be afraid!"
"I, Shen Ni, am not a vegetarian!"
Shen Ni showed a remarkable ability to endure beatings and survive.
In Biyou Heaven, Ming River sighed admiringly.
"This is even more useful than my Blood Divine Son."
Jing Yao Venerable nodded: "An Innate Treasure is indeed superior."
In Xuanqing's words: As long as the ideology doesn't deteriorate, anything and everything can be manipulated.
Look, right now Shen Ni has brought the Destruction World Mill to new heights.
"Let's disperse, everyone."
Xuanqing shook his head: "Luo Hou Daoist is just toying with him."
If it were before, when Luo Hou hadn't begun the Heaven Creation and not achieved Da Luo Supreme status.
Then it might have been interesting to watch.
But now, if Luo Hou didn't want to see some fun, he would have sent Shen Ni on his way long ago.
Xuanqing, pulling Daoist Lord Yu Chen, returned to the Space-Time Lake to continue fishing.
Meng Wuyou, Ming River, and Jing Yao continued to watch.
But having watched for a while without seeing Shen Ni pulling any new tricks.
"But—" He dragged on with a long tone: "Just don't let me see that some people's ideas eventually end up in the unknown tributaries of the Space-Time River."
"If, on a whim, you cause other timelines to display images that should not appear, then don't blame me for being ruthless."
"How could that be!"
Ming River chuckled: "We are all beloved Daoist friends."
"Do you not know me well? In the Taiwei Constellation, I'm the most honest."
"Playing with timelines in the tributaries of the Space-Time River and fabricating fake histories for Daoists, could I do such a thing? No, I couldn't!"
"I hope that's the case." Luo Hou looked meaningfully at Ming River.
The Netherworld fellows never do the things of the Yang Realm.
Each could make one's vision go dark.
And scripting such small plays is the most common mischief among the Innate Divine Beings.
It's said that only when one reaches the Da Luo Level can one transcend time and space, unrestricted by the Space-Time River.
Yet, Taiyi Daoist can still play tricks in the Space-Time River.
The Space-Time River's cause and effect is too great, and backlash too strong, making it inconvenient to act rashly.
But which Taiyi Daoist isn't flying high in the various tributaries?
The Primordial True Realm has no Heavenly Dao, let alone predestined fate.
Each Innate Divine Being is unique; they are their own predestined fate.
Outside the Primordial True Realm, play as you wish.
For example, going to a tributary in the Space-Time River to fabricate a timeline, create a low-tier Primordial realm based on own ideas? That's easy.
Then create a Heavenly Dao, write your own ideas into it, make a few tweaks, and there you have the trend of the Heavenly Dao.
Write whatever you want to see, whoever's dark history you want to fabricate.
Just like beyond official history, there are unofficial stories.
Isn't that quite normal?
Don't talk about writing "Shen Ni makes a counterattack, beating Luo Hou" types of small scripts;
Even if you make a big production like "Hitting Buzhou Mountain, re-refining Earth, Fire, Water, Wind," that's also possible.
Of course, while doing this feels exhilarating, there is a small problem: if the principal finds out, it's easy to get killed.
If you're unlucky and cause a big fuss, and a group of principals find out, then it's not as simple as just getting killed.
You just wait to be buried in the Space-Time River, nailed inside your coffin, never to turn over.
And those who dare to write scripts for Da Luo Supreme, either you've already picked out your grave, or don't wait for the Supreme to dig one for you.
Or you become Da Luo yourself.
"Let me think about it now; I'll write secretly in the future."
Ming River looked forward in his heart to the day he would become Da Luo.

After defeating Shen Ni and bursting some equipment, Biyou Heaven held a fishing contest.
Everyone had their own fishing spot, this time fishing only for delicacies.
"This is considered our Demon Path's first gathering, let's build up some tacit understanding."
"Flowers and grass are fine, rare beasts are fine, Innate ingredients are fine!"
"As long as you don't fish up anything inedible, whoever does must fuel Jing Yao's Pill Furnace."
Xuanqing loudly announced the rules, even specifying the punishment.
Jing Yao responded cheerfully: "That's great!"
Then everyone fished happily.
Soon, they fished up a lot of strange things.
Among these, the main contributors were Xuanqing, Luo Hou, and Jing Yao.
Innate ingredients were fished from the Space-Time Lake as if they cost nothing.
This stunned Daoist Lord Yu Chen.
Are your lucks that good?
Isn't this beyond expectation?
You're not going to survive your second half of life, are you?
Then, Meng Wuyou told him the real reason—this bunch were cheating.
Each of them had the Merit Heavenly Dao!
Isn't it easy to add some luck to themselves?
"Since Ming River Daoist also has Merit Heavenly Dao, why didn't I see him catching anything?"
Daoist Lord Yu Chen looked at the Great Daoist Method Net beside Ming River, whose catch was even less than his own uncheated one.
"Ah, that's a long story." Ming River sighed and explained to Daoist Lord Yu Chen about his Depraved Heavenly Dao.
Daoist Lord Yu Chen, unable to suppress a smile, remarked, "Daoist friend... you really are..."
"If you want to laugh, just laugh." Ming River was indifferent.
"Pfft~~ Hahahaha!!"
Daoist Lord Yu Chen couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.
The world is so vast; there are all kinds of wonders.
Turning Merit Heavenly Dao into something so abstract, truly an eye-opener for Daoist Lord Yu Chen.
"But your Killing Destiny Heavenly Dao is somewhat similar to my influence of the Great Dao."
Daoist Lord Yu Chen's Great Dao is about finding light in calamity.
To put it in familiar terms, when calamity descends on the world, it snatches a lifeline for all beings.
Thus his path is to be venerable in the final calamity!
Thus, it's somewhat similar to Ming River's Depraved Heavenly Dao which contains both luck and malice in killing.
Just that Daoist Lord Yu Chen's is about actively entering calamity, while the other is passive.
"Splosh~~"
Ming River's fishing rod moved.
Upon pulling it up, it was a rock.
The same one Xuanqing had fished up earlier.
"Alright, the contest is over!"
Xuanqing declared the fishing contest perfectly concluded.
Jing Yao Venerable patted Ming River on the shoulder: "Ming River Child, make sure to keep the furnace fire strong!"
Everyone laughed.
"Who will handle all these ingredients?"
"I'll do it." Luo Hou volunteered eagerly.
Xuanqing was surprised: "Daoist friend, you know how to cook?"
Luo Hou slightly lifted his chin, somewhat proudly stating: "The capability of Da Luo, nothing is impossible."
"Then great!" Xuanqing immediately clapped.
"Having the honor to eat a meal prepared by Lord Demon Ancestor, we are indeed very fortunate."
"Indeed, it's an absolute honor!" Everyone looked forward with anticipation.
A Demon Path Ancestor with unmatched culinary skills, who has seen that before?
Even small scripts wouldn't dare to write this!
For a while, Biyou Heaven was filled with joyful laughter and endless happiness.
