Chunibyo in Cultivation World

“Heavenly Root, cannot be insulted.”

The Resentment Channeling Curse was activated, and the hundredfold amplification began.

In that instant, the Filthy Resentful Aura that had enveloped the grand hall under the control of those Demons suddenly, and for no reason, became connected with Li Tianwei.

“Not good.”

The two Nascent Soul Demons immediately cried out when they saw this change, their eyes snapping toward Li Tianwei.

“What’s going on with this guy? Why do I feel like he’s even more demonic than me?!”

Behind Li Tianwei appeared a twisted, flickering remnant shadow.

With that grin spreading across his face, the aura he exuded was utterly sinister.

To describe it—if the Nascent Soul Demons’ manifestations were grotesque and deformed because of their outward monstrousness, Li Tianwei’s distorted, multicolored remnants were instead a kind of mental horror, like an old DVD skipping through a horror film.

To the Demons, Li Tianwei’s transformation merely made him seem more evil than they were.

But for the normal disciples, they had already retreated dozens of steps away.

Even Li Tianchen had long since hidden far off in fear.

“Die! What False Spiritual Root? If you call me a Demon, then so be it—but how dare you insult me!”

“Tell me—which of your eyes saw me as a False Spiritual Root? What False Spiritual Root could possibly have such heavenly talent as mine?”

As soon as Li Tianwei’s words fell, a dreadful shadow descended over the entire grand hall.

“Heaven-Ending Yin Fiend.”

Li Tianwei’s cold voice echoed within the hall.

At that instant, whether Demon or surviving human, all felt a suffocating terror—an oppression that came from a power far above their own.

This was the Heaven-Ending Yin Fiend, a powerful spell forged upon divine ability as its foundation.

In a single instant, yin energy filled the air, and the very heavens and earth became sealed.

For some reason, this seal was even more dreadful than the one the Demons had cast earlier.

In but a blink, Li Tianwei replaced them and sealed the entire grand hall within his domain.

Seeing this change, the two Nascent Soul Demons were furious.

Never had they imagined that they, the Demons who always preyed upon others, who locked others down and used resentment and corruption against cultivators—would now find someone using their own demonic methods against them.

Was there truly such a reversal of the heavens?!

And worst of all, the one doing it was merely a cultivator of the Foundation Establishment Realm!

Someone at such a level dared to strike at Nascent Souls!

For a moment, the Demons even felt that Li Tianwei was insulting them.

Strangely enough, the two Nascent Soul Demons shared a sense of sympathy with Li Tianwei.

They immediately activated their spiritual power.

As Nascent Souls, they had already formed their Manifestations and birthed their inner infants—having completely transcended the mortal level of power.

Boom—

The two enormous twisted Manifestations that had stood to either side opened their scarlet eyes, radiating that eerie, alien aura once more.

Bang—

Both Manifestations formed hand seals at the same time, erupting with overwhelming spiritual power.

“Die—”

The two Nascent Soul Demons no longer cared what had gone wrong with Li Tianwei—nor whether he was some part of another’s scheme.

He was merely a Foundation Establishment cultivator with a False Spiritual Root.

Facing the two terrifying Manifestations rushing toward him, Li Tianwei’s expression didn’t change in the slightest.

He brought his hands together—within him, the Heaven-Ending Yin Fiend spell condensed countless other spells and connected with the Resentment of Heaven and Earth, founded upon the Prison Heaven Divine Ability.

The sky itself changed color.

All around, the resentment of heaven and earth compressed again and again.

From the sealed domain, tendrils of Yin Fiend energy seeped outward.

Very soon, the world was filled with threads of that chilling Yin Fiend aura—each carrying a power so despairing it felt like a single wisp could annihilate everything.

And now, the entire sky was filled with it.

Li Tianwei did not waste words.

He raised his hand toward the two Manifestations and commanded:

“Go.”

The word fell.

Crack—

A sound like the heavens themselves shattering screamed through the air.

The Yin Fiend light streaked across the sky like a meteor, surging forward with terrifying speed.

The two Nascent Soul Demons felt the power contained within the Heaven-Ending Yin Fiend.

In their pitch-black eyes, for the first time, appeared a flicker of fear.

“This… how is this possible? He’s only at Foundation Establishment!”

They could feel within that Yin Fiend force the merging of fission-like spiritual power, the liquidity of Golden Core strength, and the channeling of the Resentment of Heaven and Earth.

Li Tianwei’s methods were constantly compressing, amplifying, over and over—forcing from his Foundation Establishment cultivation a power approaching that of a Nascent Soul.

If someone were to analyze it carefully, they would find that it was not without reason.

The spiritual energy and resentment of heaven and earth that entered Li Tianwei’s body were instantly purified—becoming violent and infused with the Daos of Death, Resentment, Evil, and Killing, then bound together with the Prison Heaven Divine Ability.

Indeed, Li Tianwei truly possessed the means to contend with Nascent Souls.

Whoosh—

As the Yin Fiend light tore through the sky, those Demons and the surviving disciples saw the two Manifestations that had been about to rip Li Tianwei apart suddenly halt in midair.

Instead, they were crushed by the Yin Fiend energy—ground apart as if between the millstones of heaven and earth—until they shattered and were utterly annihilated.

Before everyone’s eyes, the Manifestations that represented the very essence of Nascent Soul power collapsed completely.

The once-solid forms disintegrated, their structure dissolving until nothing remained.

And Li Tianwei, the one who had destroyed them, now floated halfway in the air.

Looking down upon the hall below, the Yin Fiend energy swirled behind him, the distorted remnants around him twisting the very heavens into shadow.

The entire grand hall was now engulfed by his darkness.

The auras of Death, Resentment, Evil, and Killing gathered around him—making Li Tianwei seem like a demonic sovereign descending upon the world.

The Extraterrestrial Demons were sinister indeed—but Li Tianwei seemed even more so.

With only Foundation Establishment strength, he had shattered the Manifestations of two Nascent Souls, crushing across two great realms.

This moment proved—Li Tianwei possessed the power to battle Nascent Souls.

The two Demons whose Manifestations had been destroyed visibly weakened; their aura and pressure plummeted instantly.

In that instant, both Nascent Soul Demons felt the shadow of death upon them.

They could now confirm—Li Tianwei truly was that genius who had achieved Hundred-Day Foundation, and he had done so even with a False Spiritual Root!

“No… no human cultivator could possibly exist like this!”

Their first instinct was denial—but they knew they had to kill Li Tianwei here and now.

Their Manifestations gone, their strength had fallen—but as Demons, having merged with and corrupted the bodies of cultivators, their physical forms remained far beyond the norm.

Each possessed a body far stronger than when they had been human.

After exchanging a glance, the two Demons reached a silent understanding—their eyes reflected a shared, murderous resolve.

They would kill Li Tianwei, no matter what.

“Die!”

Without their Manifestations, the two Nascent Soul Demons lunged forward, closing the distance in a flash.

Li Tianwei merely smiled.

Through that previous trial with the Heaven-Ending Yin Fiend, he had already gauged their strength—and found it unimpressive.

“Prison Heaven.”

Li Tianwei whispered the words in his heart, and at that moment, he chose to unleash his divine ability.
