Chapter 123: Demon-Subduing… Blood Demon Born

Inside the demon cave of Heavenly Tian Shafeng, a figure in white monk robes walked slowly. The deep cave was silent, filled with deathly stillness. Only the eerie demon bones at the cave entrance and the indelible blood color on the stone walls revealed what kind of tragedy had occurred here... In this once bustling cave, only that person's footsteps echoed.

A pangolin spirit curled itself into a ball, hiding in a stone crevice, trembling.

It shouldn't have stayed here… "This place is too terrifying! Too terrifying! It's not a place for demons to stay at all… Those terrifying demons come one after another… The most terrifying one is that young human. Humans are indeed the more terrifying the younger they are. I heard there is a Gourd Mountain in the distance, remote and safe, I'll move today!"

Hearing the footsteps gradually move away, the pangolin didn't even dare to take the package of treasures left in the nest by the great demons after they died, and ran toward the outside of the mountain along the stone crevice.

Stepping on the demon ashes on the ground, Master Miaokong, wearing the skin of Master Bai Yun, revealed a sneer.

"Hypocritical righteous path. I originally thought I could leave some demon blood for sacrifice, but they killed more cleanly than I did, even scattering the ashes! The killing intent is so heavy… am I the demon, or are they the demons?"

When walking to the main hall near the deepest part of the Demon Cave, Master Miaokong suddenly revealed a look of doubt. He seemed to have noticed a blade mark that was almost invisible…

"This is… the Supreme Supreme Tian Mo Blood-Transforming Ancient Shendao? The secret of the Yu Yu Jiuyou Demonic Path… I didn't get this thing even after killing the beloved grandson of the Supreme Elder. How could it be here?" Master Miaokong touched the blade mark lightly. The vague blade mark no longer had that demonic nature, as if the thing on the blade mark could jump and walk, and had run away by itself.

"This blade mark is a bit strange. Legend has it that when the Supreme Supreme Tian Mo Blood-Transforming Ancient Shendao is practiced to a profound level, a Supreme Supreme Tian Mo will be born in one blade."

"It is said that the changes in blade technique are extremely weird and incredible."

Master Miaokong cast his eyes on a bat skeleton in the main hall, becoming more and more suspicious: "This bat spirit seems to be the great steward of Madam Red Practice. How does it look like it died from being seized of its essence and cultivation by a demon?"

"Who exactly is using the Demon Blade here… Could it be that the birth of the Blood Demon is really related to the Yu Yu Jiuyou Blood Sea? The Yu Yu Jiuyou Demonic Path and the Blood Sea Demonic Path have a very complex relationship, with you in me and me in you. The Yu Yu Jiuyou Demonic Path claims to be the Supreme Supreme Tian Mo Great Dao, and the Blood Sea Demonic Path claims to be the Blood Demon Great Dao. The Supreme Supreme Tian Mo Blood-Transforming Ancient Shendao is the blade Dao of the Blood Sea Demonic Path seized by the Yu Yu Jiuyou Demonic Path, and then improved and controlled by the Supreme Supreme Tian Mo's supreme demonic thoughts. Could it be that I saw it wrong? The

"The Supreme Supreme Tian Mo and the Blood Demon were both split from the primitive demonic path. Legend has it that if one fuses the various great supernatural powers of the Supreme Supreme Tian Mo and the Blood Demon, one can recreate the demonic might of the supreme supernatural powers of the primitive demonic path of the past."

"The reason the Nine Heavens Demon Xie Xie Zushi and the Blood Sea Demon Xie Xie Zushi do not teach each other's demonic paths is to raise 'gu' insects, and also because they fear that a subordinate might appear who fuses both paths, tracing back to the origin and becoming closer to the essence of the primitive Demon Xie Xie Zushi!"

"If the Blood Demon knew this legend, he would definitely want to kill me too. Of course... I also want to kill him!"

"But first, I must kill that brat... He is becoming more and more terrifying. The blade from before already had the shadow of his own path, and it struck directly at demonic thoughts. Before, when he dealt with me, he still needed to borrow the methods of the demonic path, using demons to control demons, but this time he completely shook off the shackles of the demonic path. Such a person, no wonder he would become..."

Master Miaokong's complexion was extremely ugly. Every time he thought about that day when he carelessly dragged that brat out and sealed the supreme treasure within his body, he regretted it until his intestines rotted.

"I knew it, I should have thought of it earlier. Those who can serve as targets for the Lord of Samsara's missions are not that simple. I thought the Lord of Samsara just wanted to interfere with the Li family and lay the groundwork for the future struggle of humanity in the Central Lands. Who would have thought... this brat no longer carries the surname Li! How dare he not carry the surname Li... This is betraying one's master and ancestors! This is betraying one's master and ancestors!"

"Five hundred years, there are still five hundred years until the great calamity of humanity in the Central Lands!"

"Hahaha! Will he still give me five hundred years? The revival ancestor of the Supreme Louguan Dao, he is the revival ancestor of the Supreme Louguan Dao! The future True Person Brother Qian, Dao Lord Brother Qian... Now, every time I leave the Land of Samsara, I have to be trembling with fear, terrified that a hand might suddenly reach out from the void and wipe me out!"

"Fortunately, there is the Lord of Samsara to suppress and obscure karma! I can no longer kill him now, so I must become stronger, stronger by any means necessary. Even if I can't kill him, I must be an enemy of destiny. Perhaps, among the Nine Heavens Demon Lords of my current world, one of them is me!"

Master Miaokong raised his right hand. A long object, wrapped in a black, greasy black skin that felt like human skin, revealed only a golden sword hilt inlaid with Big Dipper gemstones. Master Miaokong touched the hilt slightly and felt a scorching heat in his palm. He released his hand in pain, and a scar was faintly visible on his palm.

"Wearing the skin of this old monk, I can't even use this magic treasure."

"When I use this sword to break the seal later, should I slash it a bit crookedly and slash the Blood Demon half to death?" Master Miaokong thought quite maliciously. After a long time, he abandoned this idea: "The Blood Demon is not so easy to kill. If I severely injure him and can't finish him off in a short time, wouldn't that be giving that brat a chance?"

As he went deeper into the demon cave, straight to the stone path in the belly of Heavenly Tian Shafeng, the demonic qi became sparse, not even as strong as the stone caves outside, making Master Miaokong suspect he had taken the wrong path. But when he walked into the deepest part of the demon cave, he saw a dried-up blood pool, and in the blood pool, there was a blood eye, which was now also dried up!

That blood eye was even split open by a blade mark, cracking into a fissure leading to the belly of the mountain.

Inside, blood-colored mist churned and surged, but it was somewhat sparse...

Master Miaokong came before the blood eye and felt the weakness of the will in the churning blood mist. He was somewhat surprised and said: "I didn't expect that in the half day I wasn't here, your place would have changed. A few mere juniors have made you this miserable. Senior, you really are no longer capable!"

"Mere juniors..." The blood mist churned and sneered: "You have no idea..."

"Forget it! Why am I telling you this!" The Blood Demon seemed to remember that he had been almost hacked to death by his own subordinates and backup flesh body, which seemed even more embarrassing, so he diverted the topic: "We have already agreed. If you let this master out, the 'Blood Sea Demon Scripture' will be handed over!"

"How do I break the seal?" Master Miaokong asked directly.

"The seal of Heavenly Tian Shafeng had long been worn down to the limit by me. Originally, with the power I had accumulated, I could have broken the seal not long ago. It was only to wait for the most suitable opportunity that I secretly endured. As a result... that cheap woman! And that lunatic... and that insane brat!"

"Now there is no time to worry about opportunities! The weakest point of the seal is here... You just need to stab the Profound Heaven Demon-Slaying Sword into this blood hole, and I will handle the rest!"

Master Miaokong came to the blood eye, lifted the black cloth a little, revealing the sword blade whose sharpness could not be looked at directly. He exposed half of the sword blade and prepared to insert it into the weakest point of the blood eye fissure.

"Wait... you won't stab it crookedly, will you!" The Blood Demon suddenly called out to stop him.

Master Miaokong sneered in his heart: "Old fox!"

He knew he was intimidating him not to have any crooked thoughts...

Master Miaokong stabbed the Profound Heaven Demon-Slaying Sword with force toward the weakest point of the blood hole fissure. The blood mist twisted, revealing countless faces. They were resentful, angry, and hateful. The blood mist surged like a tide, and the blood malevolent qi within the blood hole rose. The moment the Profound Heaven Demon-Slaying Sword pierced through the earth-aperture of the blood hole, endless blood malevolent qi gushed out. The demon cave shook, and amidst the roaring sound, countless fissures piercing through Heavenly Tian Shafeng began to connect and spread.

A fissure spread from here to the main body of Heavenly Tian Shafeng. Soon, a fissure several zhang wide split the entire Heavenly Tian Shafeng.

Rolling blood mist gushed out from the earth-aperture suppressed by Heavenly Tian Shafeng. True Person Zhou Qi looked at the shaking Heavenly Tian Shafeng from afar, his face showing a firm expression: "This moment has finally arrived! Fellow Daoists, predecessors of the Seven Demon-Slaying Heroes, I hope you can see this scene. Bless us... to slay this demon!"

"Hahaha... Hahaha! I am finally out!"

"Two thousand years of darkness could not trap me. Yingfeng, Dafang, Monk Master Bu Dai... everything you people left behind, I will eventually destroy!"

Inside Heavenly Tian Shafeng, a constantly echoing demonic sound said crazily.

The black mountain peak split from the middle. Rolling lava seemed to be about to gush out from the lungs of the earth. Black smoke and dust floated high. In this scene, which was like a volcanic eruption, the black clouds ejected by the volcano carried the yin qi of the earth's lungs, attracting the bombardment of heavenly thunder. Amidst the lightning and thunder, the rolling blood tide roared into the sky, transforming into a huge face.

The Blood Demon stared at Master Miaokong for a moment, and the rolling blood mist seemed somewhat restless.

Master Miaokong was calm in his heart. Facing the blood tide that was clearly much stronger than the weakness the Blood Demon had previously shown, he, like Brother Qian Chen, only sneered: "I already calculated that you old demon wouldn't be honest!"

Master Miaokong raised the Profound Heaven Demon-Slaying Sword in his hand. Facing the awe-inspiring sword edge, the blood mist transformed by the Blood Demon could not help but shrink back, then surged violently, roaring at Master Miaokong: "What are you waiting for? Throw this Profound Heaven Demon-Slaying Sword into this fissure leading directly to the lungs of the earth, and use the earth's lung poison fire to destroy this sword. I will teach you the 'Blood Sea Demon Scripture' without reservation!"

At this moment, a sword light came across the sky from afar. The sword qi pierced through the long sky, and rolling thunder echoed throughout the world.

In the black clouds transformed by the yin qi of the earth's lungs, lightning raged, like silver dragons churning endlessly.

At this moment, the sword light was dazzling, actually splitting the thick black clouds. Together with the blood mist of the Blood Demon's true body, it was deeply slashed by the vast river of sword qi that spanned three hundred miles.

The next instant, a golden chicken crowed long. Through the black clouds that had been slashed open, a point of golden light sprinkled down along with the sunlight.

A golden needle was hidden in the sunlight. Accompanied by the sunlight that broke through the black clouds, it nailed itself onto the Blood Demon... Amidst miserable shrieks, the Blood Demon's Yang Spirit was nailed into the blood mist, unable to move at will.

"Demon-Slaying Sword Box, Demon-Breaking Golden Needle!"

"It's you damned people of the righteous path!"

The Blood Demon was furious, drumming up endless blood malevolent qi, wanting to rush out. At this moment, a small silver ring, as if encompassing heaven and earth, gently looped and landed on the Blood Demon's Yang Spirit. A divine light reflected from a bronze mirror, breaking through the cover of the rolling blood mist, pointing directly at where the Blood Demon's Yang Spirit was located.
