In the Realm of True Spirit, a stir was caused among the many powers of the Divine Realm. Numerous mighty ones, including the top Martial Gods and Deity Transformation cultivators, flocked to True Spirit Realm. For a time, this realm became a nexus of converging forces.
Countless individuals were eager to claim their share in the True Spirit Realm. However, this did not affect the pace at which Lin Fei, the Heart Demon Martial God, and North Wind True Person divided the realm amongst themselves.
There was little substantial resistance to dissuade the trio. They were now on the verge of controlling the entire True Spirit Realm. Even the arrival of more powerful beings seemed futile, as none had dared to openly confront North Wind True Person or the Heart Demon Martial God.
At that moment, within the grand hall of the North Wind Sect in the True Spirit Realm, North Wind True Person, the Heart Demon Martial God, and Lin Fei sat elevated above the rest. Below them, a dense gathering of Martial Kings and Nascent Soul cultivators assembled. The Heart Demon Martial God spoke coldly, "North Wind, how much longer until True Spirit Realm collapses?"
"Soon, in no more than three months, the Realm will inevitably collapse," North Wind replied.
"Three months? That's too long. To avoid unforeseen complications, we must hasten the collapse of True Spirit Realm."
"Do you have a method to expedite its collapse?"
"Indeed, there is a way. The best method is through combat, particularly between Martial Gods and those in Deity Transformation. The fiercer the battle, the quicker the Realm will collapse."
"Martial Gods and Deity Transformation cultivators clashing? Perfect. Recently, many old-timers have arrived in the Realm, still basking in the glory of their past."
A cold murderous intent flashed in the Heart Demon Martial God's eyes. The Realm of True Spirit had become a powder keg, ready to explode at any moment. The powerful Martial Gods and Deity Transformation cultivators had entered the Realm but remained merely as "observers."
However, in True Spirit Realm, their presence was a form of deterrence! Therefore, the Heart Demon Martial God planned to take the initiative and eliminate the increasing number of Martial Gods and Deity Transformation cultivators. This could trigger a chain reaction, potentially leading them to confront numerous opponents of similar caliber.
North Wind True Person, not wanting to unnecessarily complicate matters, remained hesitant. "Martial God Lin, what are your thoughts?" he inquired, turning to Lin Fei.
North Wind True Person was keenly aware that among the three of them, Lin Fei was actually the strongest. In terms of fame, Lin Fei couldn't compare to the Heart Demon Martial God or North Wind True Person. Yet, despite his relative obscurity, Lin Fei's strength was terrifyingly formidable.
With a swift motion, Lin Fei suddenly opened his eyes. His gaze pierced through the void outside the North Wind Sect, and he spoke with an even tone, "There's no need for us to take the initiative anymore. Because they have already arrived!"
"Arrived?" Both North Wind True Person and the Heart Demon Martial God tensed up at this revelation. They immediately turned their attention towards the void outside the North Wind Sect.
In a swift stride, the three of them stepped into the void. There, in the midst of the void, two figures had appeared. One was a Martial God and the other a Deity Transformation cultivator. The mere presence of these two formidable beings sent shockwaves through both North Wind True Person and the Heart Demon Martial God.

"How could it be them?" Their voices trembled with disbelief.
"Who are they?" Lin Fei asked calmly.
North Wind True Person, gazing at the Deity Transformation cultivator, spoke gravely, "From the Yin-Yang Immortal Realm, it's Meditation True Person! People might not be aware of his background, but I am. Meditation True Person, despite seeming inactive for a long time, possesses immense strength among those in Deity Transformation. His battle avatar alone might number in the thousands.
Moreover, Meditation True Person places great emphasis on the spirit. His mind is said to be flawless, without a single imperfection, perfectly countering the illusions of the Heart Demon Martial God."
North Wind True Person understood Meditation True Person exceptionally well. After all, they were both top-tier Deity Transformation cultivators. North Wind naturally had knowledge of potential adversaries, and Meditation True Person had been marked as a potential rival. His capabilities were already well-known to North Wind, who had not expected that the turmoil in the True Spirit Realm would draw out Meditation True Person.
"And him?" Lin Fei then turned his gaze towards the other Martial God.
The Heart Demon Martial God spoke solemnly, "He is the Extinction Martial God from the Ten Directions Realm. Master of the laws of death, though he has only transcended the fifth heavenly tribulation, he is already a top-tier Martial God. His unique mastery of these laws makes his power immensely fearsome. He once famously slew three Martial Gods in a single battle, earning a notorious reputation. Wherever Extinction Martial God goes, carnage follows. It's unexpected that he too would come to True Spirit Realm."
"Master of the laws of death?" Lin Fei's eyes sparkled with interest. Indeed, this was a rare and powerful law, difficult to master and extremely formidable.
Meditation True Person, with thousands of incarnations, and Extinction Martial God, master of the laws of death, both stood at the pinnacle of Deity Transformation and Martial God realms. It was remarkable that they were now gathered together in one place.
Meditation True Person looked at the Heart Demon Martial God and others, speaking slowly: "Heart Demon Martial God and North Wind True Person, your strengths are not to be underestimated. Particularly the Heart Demon Martial God, your illusionary techniques are rare. I am curious to see if your illusions can find a flaw in my flawless spirit."
Extinction Martial God spoke succinctly, "Today's battle will surely see a downfall."
His words were brief, but they carried a chilling undertone of lethal intent. At this moment, countless eyes in the void watched the standoff. The fate of the True Spirit Realm might be decided in this battle. Even more, this confrontation had the potential to shatter the True Spirit Realm, possibly revealing the world's origin.
Some were thinking of the proverb "The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind." Despite knowing that countless onlookers were focused on this great battle, the Heart Demon Martial God, North Wind True Person, and Lin Fei had no choice but to fight. Without overcoming Meditation True Person and the Extinction Martial God, they could not gain complete control over the True Spirit Realm.
"Kill!"
Without any flourish, the Heart Demon Martial God uttered a low command. Instantly, an invisible wave enveloped Meditation True Person and Extinction Martial God. It was the Law of Illusion!
The Law of Illusion, combined with the Heart Demon Martial God's own deceptive arts, was nearly invincible. It could intensely impact any Martial God or Deity Transformation cultivator.
However, this art had its advantages and disadvantages. If the spirit was flawed, falling into the illusion would mean being unable to extricate oneself, potentially leading to eternal entrapment in the fantasy.
But, for those with a resolute spirit or a flawless mind, the illusion would be ineffective. In such cases, the Heart Demon Martial God would be rendered powerless.
As the illusion descended, Meditation True Person's eyes flickered slightly. Then, with a shake of his head and a slight smile, he said, "Your illusion is indeed strong. However, it's a pity that my spirit is truly flawless, without any imperfections. Your illusion has no effect on me!"
Meditation True Person effortlessly broke through the Heart Demon Martial God's illusion. Or rather, the illusion was incapable of pulling Meditation True Person into its realm of fantasy.
What was more surprising was the reaction of Extinction Martial God. His eyes showed a momentary hint of confusion before he swiftly regained clarity. He too had experienced and broken out of the illusion.
"My spirit has already been stilled; your illusion cannot make me succumb," Extinction Martial God stated, rendering the Heart Demon Martial God silent.
In that instant of confrontation, he had already been defeated!
