Primordial: I, Dijun, Only Want to Build the Great Desolation-Chapter 42 - 38 Mind Duel

42: Chapter 38: Mind Duel

42 -38: Mind Duel

Di Jun silently held his peace in his heart.

“Ha ha ha…”

After a long while, Wu Tian, seeing that Di Jun had nothing to say, couldn’t help but break into loud laughter within Di Jun’s state of mind.

At this moment, Wu Tian felt that he had finally vented his pent-up resentment.

He was the only disciple of the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou, and before meeting Di Jun, he could dominate among both Daoists and Demons as a Golden Immortal.

However, in his two encounters with Di Jun, he was always on the losing end.

The first time, he was evenly matched with Di Jun, and when he reached the level of a Daluo Golden Immortal, he thought that capturing Di Jun would be as easy as reaching out his hand.

Unfortunately, it was not to be; despite exerting all his effort, it was in vain, which made him feel like he had become a joke among the Daluo Golden Immortals.

The second time, he had painfully contemplated the Divine Skills of speed, while Di Jun had also reached the level of a Daluo Golden Immortal.

Initially, they were evenly matched, justifying his painstaking study of the Divine Skills.

Yet this state of affairs didn’t last long, as Di Jun’s growth rate was simply too rapid.

In just a millennium, his speed had climbed to a new level, and he couldn’t fight back at all, severely tormented by the Taiyang Fire.

If it weren’t for the Eleventh Grade Black Lotus bestowed by his Master, he might not have been able to endure and become an Outer Heaven Demon.

Now that he himself had become an Outer Heaven Demon, leaving Di Jun at his wits’ end, Wu Tian finally felt a long-absent joy.

Faced with Wu Tian’s arrogance, Di Jun had nothing to say, nor did he make any move, as if he indeed had no way to deal with Wu Tian.

And Wu Tian did not miss this opportunity, making full use of mockery in Di Jun’s state of mind, while constantly hurling Demon Dao Laws, tempting Di Jun.

He could sense the deepest desires in Di Jun’s heart and thus continually enticed Di Jun with the Laws.

Don’t think that the moment he became an Outer Heaven Demon, his strength stopped growing; he could also contemplate the Heavenly Dao and understand the Laws.

However, as an Outer Heaven Demon, there were great limitations; he could only display them in others’ states of mind, unable to truly exert them in the Primordial Material World.

Faced with these temptations, Di Jun was not swayed, remaining unmoved throughout.

Wu Tian, at this moment, had a premonition of unease.

After two contacts, he felt Di Jun was not a life that would just sit and wait for death.

Suddenly, a great sun appeared in Di Jun’s heart.

“Ah!”

Wu Tian was unprepared for this moment and, upon seeing this great sun, was unexpectedly burned.

“I am an Outer Heaven Demon.

Di Jun!

How could you injure me?”

Layers upon layers of Demon Dao Laws manifested within Di Jun’s state of mind, protecting Wu Tian from the scorching of the great sun.

Faced with Wu Tian’s astounded questioning, Di Jun did not offer an explanation.

Under the great sun, all evil spirits are scattered.

Outer Heaven Demons; Di Jun had also heard of them in his previous life, though he knew not much.

However, simply based on a little knowledge, Di Jun could guess some of the essence of these Outer Heaven Demons.

In his previous life, the most common saying was that Outer Heaven Demons were there to temper one’s Dao heart.

Dao heart?

It is nothing more than having a strong spirit, a resolute will, being devoted to one’s path, and unwaveringly determined.

Perhaps due to being an Innate Sacred, Di Jun did not spend much effort in tempering his Dao heart, yet the results were swift.

Especially after the late stages of the strife between Dao and Demon, he was growing rapidly.

In such circumstances, Di Jun’s Spiritual Power was also exceptionally strong.

Facing Wu Tian’s various mockeries, Di Jun did not pay much attention; they could not affect his state of mind.

In fact, Wu Tian knew this, as Di Jun’s state of mind had always been calm and unruffled.

Di Jun was attempting to manifest the power of spirit within the realm of his heart-mind.

And what Di Jun was most familiar with was none other than the Sun Star that nourished him.

Thus, the Sun appeared within Di Jun’s heart, scorching the unsuspecting Wu Tian.

Upon seeing Di Jun’s silence, Wu Tian knew that Di Jun would not reveal the reason behind it.

In fact, when the Sun emerged, Wu Tian was actually panicking inside.

That’s because as far as he knew, until now, no life has been able to impose effective restrictions and cause harm to Outer Heaven Demons, not even Hong Jun could do anything.

It wasn’t a matter of inadequate strength, but a lack of strategy to confront Outer Heaven Demons.

And now, Di Jun was the being who had mastered such a strategy.

But immediately afterward, Wu Tian shifted his mindset, feeling a thrill of elation.

For now that tangible spiritual power had surfaced in Di Jun’s realm of heart-mind, defeating him would surely deal a heavy blow to Di Jun’s spirit.

By then, his opportunity to return to the Primordial might have arrived.

Defeat Di Jun, become Di Jun, and then re-enter the Primordial.

Wu Tian was fully confident in this.

This was a clash of spirits; unavoidable, a direct collision was the only means, and Di Jun’s vaunted speed was utterly useless here.

“Di Jun, do you think you can still rely on speed?

Your end has come.

Rest assured, I will replace you and savor the magnificent rivers and mountains of Primordial.”

Wu Tian’s tone remained extremely arrogant.

Demon Dao Laws swirled around Wu Tian, striking at the Sun within Di Jun’s heart.

And around that Sun, numerous laws began to appear.

Different from Luo Hou’s monotonous Demon Dao Laws, the laws around the Sun were diverse and complementary.

All of these were laws comprehended by Di Jun.

The two began a head-on confrontation, laws intertwining and colliding with each other, fiercely vying for control of Di Jun’s land of heart realm.

At this moment, Di Jun’s calm voice echoed in the realm of the heart-mind: “Wu Tian, have you forgotten that even without speed, we were equally matched?”

“Moreover, so many years have passed, how could you possibly be my rival?”

Wu Tian, hearing Di Jun’s voice, immediately sensed something was wrong.

Because Di Jun’s voice was calm, without the slightest hint of panic.

Furthermore, if he could project his voice using the power of spirit in this situation, he must have strength to spare.

Damn it!

Why is it so hard to gauge this guy’s true strength?

Wu Tian couldn’t help but curse inwardly.

At this moment, the Sun within Di Jun’s land of heart realm became even more formidable, as Taiyang Fire enveloped several laws and launched an assault on Wu Tian.

Just as Wu Tian thought, the clash of spirits was inescapable; Wu Tian had no choice but to defend with all his might, enduring the barrage of attacks.

At this point, Wu Tian had already considered retreating, looking for an opportunity to escape entirely.

Naturally, Di Jun noticed Wu Tian’s actions, as Taiyang Fire engulfed the entire land of heart realm.

Seeing this, Wu Tian realized that if he didn’t leave now, he might truly be unable to escape, and he certainly did not want to become the first Outer Heaven Demon to die.

So he immediately fled from Di Jun’s land of heart realm, while Di Jun also controlled the Taiyang Fire, aiming to trap Wu Tian.

After all, this was Di Jun’s first encounter with an Outer Heaven Demon, and lacking in experience, he failed to transform the entire land of heart realm into a cage in time, managing to capture only a portion of Wu Tian’s origin.

Using the power of spirit to shape the Taiyang Fire, he refined this portion of origin to nourish the land of heart realm.

It was uncertain how long it would take for Wu Tian to replenish the lost part of his origin.

Actually, Di Jun was still quite looking forward to their next encounter.
