Chapter 475: Three Great Heavenly Demons, Bitter Spring Taotie, Demonic Tribulation Descends

~17 min read 3,289 words

Lying on the back of the white deer, enduring the emptiness eroded by the Seven Emotions Peach Blossom Malevolent Qi, Cui Dan looked up and saw the dark clouds in the sky, like a skull opening its jaw to roar. Accompanied by the clouds pressing down, the howling gale was shrill, like ghosts wailing...

His pupils contracted, and cold sweat broke out all over his body, like thorns on his back.

"How dare they?"

"How dare the Demonic Path kill in Jiankang? Why does the demon girl of the Joyous Sect dare to mix into Jiankang and slaughter noble family disciples?"

"How dare a group of demons reveal their tracks above Jiankang?"

"Are they not afraid of the many gods in the city? The Jiankang Wei Chenghuang is a second-rank god, a great power comparable to a Primordial Spirit True Immortal."

"Are they not afraid of the Dao Academy taking action? The Chaotian Palace is the main academy of the Southern Jin Dao Academy, and including the Libationer, there are more than ten great powers at the Yin Spirit level!"

"Once the Jiankang City-Protecting Great Array is opened, under the pressure of the dragon vein national destiny, all cultivators in the city will be knocked down a rank, or even completely suppressed and sealed."

Cold sweat broke out in dense beads on Cui Dan's forehead...

He didn't know what arrangements and conspiracies the Demonic Path had, but the fact that the Demonic Path dared to kill their way to the door meant there must be a huge mess in the city!

The demon girl was at least a Core Formation demon, her Seven Emotions Malevolent Qi was poisonous and eerie, and her cultivation was fierce and terrifying; he was no match for her in one strike. Such a demon should be a true successor even in the Demonic Path.

But even so, her arrogance and recklessness when taking action should have long ago attracted the attention of the city-patrolling ghost messengers, day-wandering and night-wandering gods, and even drawn the Wei Chenghuang himself to suppress her!

That she could take action directly like this without being instantly suppressed was enough to explain many problems.

…………

In the sky, surrounded by black clouds and malevolent qi, the Supreme Supreme Tian Mo of the Blood Sea Path—Xie Xie Zushi Taotie, wrapped in a black robe, received a message from the Yu Yu Jiuyou Path Elder, Fu Fu Lao Mo Fu:

"Liu Yu has been captured and taken to the sacrificial platform! But the True Successor Dao's Immortal Daoist has been captured, and the elders and true successors sent by the Eye-less Sect, Impermanence Sect, and Ghost-Gui Gui Ku Zong have all been wiped out. It is suspected that the Righteous Path sent someone into the Cave Heaven besides Xie An to scheme against our path..."

"The Residual Demon Sect controlled by the Sima family has been wiped out by the Righteous Path, and Sima Yan also knows about the curses we left in the remaining qi of the Immortal Han..."

"Sima Yan hasn't turned against us, and the Seven Star Lamp sacrifice will continue, but this person should be preparing to use a spirit treasure as a substitute to transfer the resentment on the remaining qi of the Immortal Han..."

"The Seven Star Lamp sacrifice will proceed according to plan!"

Supreme Supreme Tian Mo Xie Xie Zushi Taotie swept his demonic thoughts over the message received by the twin gods, and his divine sense immediately sensed a blurred figure transmitted with the message.

It was a youth holding a blade, the blade light like blood, dragging a river of blood. On the river of blood, a red lotus bloomed, knocking the Immortal Daoist into it! According to the attached message, this person was the culprit behind the Demonic Path's setback this time!

"Trash!" Taotie Old Xie Xie Zushi couldn't help but sneer: "The nine sects of the Demonic Path, with five elders and sect masters who have achieved the Immortal Demon Body, taking action, yet they can't even defeat a junior of the Dao Sect!"

The nine great demonic sects participating in the Jin Ling Cave Heaven this time covered the two leaders of the Demonic Path—Blood Sea and Yu Yu Jiuyou, and were followed by middle-strength Demonic Sects with long heritages like the Residual Demon Sect, Eye-less Sect, Heart-Buddha Temple, True Successor Dao, and Corpse-Driving Sect.

Even the Ghost-Gui Gui Ku Zong, which wasn't very useful, was a giant, just weaker compared to other Demonic Sects.

There were as many as five old demon lords comparable to Yang Spirits!

That was not even counting the Jin Emperor Sima Yan, who was preparing to impact the Primordial Spirit!

Even if the Demonic Path was full of mutual deception and could never be twisted into a rope, achieving such an ugly result while occupying all the advantages and having intent against the unintentional could be called a crushing defeat!

Six old demon lords who had achieved the Immortal Demon Body, and more than ten great cultivators who had cultivated their own Divine Demon and were equivalent to Dao Sect Yin Spirits...

This strength was already comparable to the top sects in the human world, only inferior to the ancient lineages with Primordial Spirits sitting in town!

To be slaughtered by a Dao Sect junior to the point of nearly half losses—

In this state, could it still be slaughtered by a junior of the Daoist Sect by nearly half?

To his surprise, under the aura sensing, that side was empty, as if something was suppressing the heavenly secrets, making him unable to lock onto that person's aura.

"So there is a spirit treasure helping to suppress his own destiny!"

"So there was help from a spiritual treasure to suppress one's own destiny!"

"No matter, as long as the Seven Star Great Sacrifice begins on the Cave Heaven side, it will be fine. Even if there are some mishaps, it won't ruin our grand plan!"

An inconspicuous insect beside Taotie Old Xie Xie Zushi opened its blood-red eyes the size of mung beans, and its mouthparts squirmed, emitting a sneer and transmitting a human voice.

"As long as we break the national destiny of the Southern Jin, whether the Sima family drinks poison to quench thirst, using the Immortal Han destiny we polluted to replenish it, or falls short of success! The arrival of the demonic tribulation to chaos the world will be greatly accelerated."

An inconspicuous insect beside the Taotie Xie Xie Zushi opens its blood-red eyes, the size of mung beans. As its mouthparts squirm, it lets out a cold laugh and speaks in a human voice.

That strange insect was actually composed of thousands of tiny thread-worms invisible to the naked eye. Now that it had expanded, each thread-worm was like a formless sword light. In the crisscrossing, it could easily kill thousands of people in an instant.

This was exactly the 'Thousand Shadow Wandering Thread Gu' that Qian Chen had mentioned before!

In this way, the identity of this Supreme Supreme Tian Mo who used the insect body to talk to Taotie on equal terms was ready to be revealed!

It was the Sect Master of the Nine Poisons Demonic Sect—Heavenly Insect Old Xie Xie Zushi, who had also set up the Three Hundred Gu King Nests outside the God-Sacrificing Platform.

Taotie Old Xie Xie Zushi looked down at Jiankang city below, his pupils deep and completely black: "That fellow Bitter Spring's subordinates destroyed a 'Nine-Child Mother Heavenly Ghost' not long ago! To cut off the destiny pillar of the Jin capital, at least nine ghost mothers, eighty-one heavenly ghosts, and ten thousand and eighty demons with and without form are needed... Only then can the 'Infinite Hell Great Array' be set up to destroy the national destiny pillar and severely damage the Southern Jin's Shinto! Now one is missing... don't drag us down!"

Heavenly Insect Old Xie Xie Zushi used his body as a Gu, not knowing how many Gu insects he had transformed into, spreading across the Earth Immortal Realm. The one beside Taotie Old Xie Xie Zushi was just one of the insignificant ones.

Even if only one-tenth of his true body was summoned today, it would be a heaven-toppling demonic tribulation...

The Thousand Shadow Wandering Thread Gu vibrated like thin black lines in the wind, and the rhythm of the vibration combined to form an old human voice: "Bitter Spring comes from the Yu Yu Jiuyou Path, with a big family and big business. I don't know how many people he raises in the Nine Abyss Cave Heaven. It's simple to gather another Nine-Child Mother Heavenly Ghost! At worst, he can just slaughter a disciple who cultivates the Nine-Child Mother Heavenly Ghost as their life-bound god-demon!"

Taotie Old Xie Xie Zushi laughed loudly upon hearing this. He gathered infinite demonic qi and condensed a huge demonic head that everyone in the city could see.

Above the sky, the huge demonic head gathered from black qi opened its giant mouth, as if roaring at Jiankang city below.

Taotie Old Xie Xie Zushi laughed loudly: "The time has come, send the message to all the demon cubs! Today, we—overturn Jiankang!"

…………

At this time, Tao Heavenly Master, who was riding a floating boat on Xuanwu Lake, changed his expression drastically. He suddenly looked up at the demonic clouds covering Jiankang, his expression a mix of shock and anger.

Beside him, Zhang Tianshi, with white hair and beard, also stood up, his long eyebrows fluttering in the wind, his tiger eyes, which were full of spirit, deep and solemn.

A talisman floated in front of him, old like yellow paper, but shrouded in intense thunder light. Thunder energy gathered on the talisman paper, actually more fierce than the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder Qian Chen had summoned in the past!

At this moment, stars appeared in the daylight above Jiankang city.

The Big Dipper appeared in the sky again. Originally the master of all stars and the emperor of the stars, the Big Dipper was now shrouded in blood light.

The handle of the dipper pointing to the North Star twisted like a blade, and blood-colored starlight gathered upon it, actually reverse-slashing the North Star!

Only with an extremely high Qi-gazing technique could one see the huge national destiny spiritual cloud floating above Jiankang city, gathered from the national destiny of the city's people, the thoughts of ten thousand people, and even the wish-power of the people of the world who believed in and feared the imperial court.

Crouching on the cloud, the national destiny true dragon, which had been gasping for breath, suddenly looked up and wailed. Following the shaking of the North Star's light, it fell, and its thousand-foot dragon body was also torn into two segments.

The huge national destiny spiritual cloud collapsed, and the Southern Jin national destiny was about to collapse at this moment!

In the hearts of the ten thousand common people in Jiankang city, a sense of panic that disaster was imminent suddenly rose. Chickens and dogs in the city ran wild, birds crashed everywhere, foxes and rats scurried through the busy streets. On the Qin Huai River, countless fish and shrimp jumped out of the water uneasily—a scene before a disaster.

But these ordinary creatures could only sense the changes through instinct.

In the spiritual sense of the cultivators in the city, this disaster was even clearer.

Cui Dan, lying on the back of the white deer, felt an inexplicable palpitation, and a suffocation that was everywhere shrouded him. Vaguely, he seemed to feel the earth beneath his feet trembling, the trees beside him withering, and even the breeze blowing in his face carried a dead aura.

At this moment, it seemed that even the primordial qi in the city had 'died'.

In front of the Wei Chenghuang Temple in Jiankang, the young scholar who had set up a 'Copper Coin Divine Calculation' stall suddenly looked up.

The three warm copper coins in his hand suddenly became rusted, and even the hand holding the copper coins revealed many wrinkles, becoming old and twisted, depicting strange and terrifying tattoos.

The scholar looked up to the sky and laughed wildly. He threw the three copper coins, one of which bounced into the Wei Chenghuang Temple. Unwillingness, resentment, curses... countless negative consciousnesses entangled the copper coins.

From where it fell, bloodstains spread on the bluestone.

A withered female figure emerged from the blood water.

Beside her were nine green-faced, fanged, white-haired, red-eyed evil ghosts with no skin or flesh on their bodies. She carried infinite resentment, hatred, malice, madness, and despair, and let out a shrill scream that was hysterical...

This sound, which was terrifyingly shrill, echoed throughout the city.

The cultivators who heard it all felt as if their spiritual sense had been heavily smashed by a sledgehammer, feeling dizzy and having splitting headaches. The pedestrians and common people around the Wei Chenghuang Temple collapsed to the ground without a sound, and many had blood seeping from their ears.

Nine shrill screams erupted, one higher than the other.

The nine evil ghosts merged with the woman's figure and flew into the sky. The demonic qi in the sky also pressed down. Countless demons shuttled through the dark clouds, and many hideous ghost objects and vicious gods descended, finding a house to break into and eating the living people inside alive.

The nine ghost mothers shook their bodies and rushed into the crumbling national destiny spiritual cloud, and eighty-one heavenly ghosts, countless demons, and gods followed closely into their small abdomens...

The young scholar in front of the Wei Chenghuang Temple laughed extremely evilly. His eyes were already completely black, like an abyss without a bottom.

"Six Paths of Reincarnation—Forbidden Law!"

"Hundreds of millions of demons turn into evil fetuses, the Infinite Ghost Mother nurtures them, all living beings are the furnace, the human heart is the prison, carrying the malice and depravity of the human heart, ten thousand evil gods and demons will be born!"

In the ghost mother's abdomen, the fear of the people in Jiankang city below was constantly integrated; the resentment before death; the jealousy of others.

All kinds of malice gathered from Jiankang city and even the various counties of the Southern Jin.

Finally, a demonic fetus gathered from countless demonic shadows slowly took shape.

With a cry, the national destiny spiritual cloud above Jiankang city was suddenly entangled by countless unwillingness, resentment, and curses, and it collapsed.

In the Wei Chenghuang Temple, and in the temples of countless righteous gods enfeoffed by the Southern Jin, bloodstains suddenly appeared on those god statues.

In the Yin Earth Divine Domain, infinite resentment and curses ignited undying demonic fire, burning the ghost messengers and Yin soldiers to soul-scattering, while several figures with brilliant divine light were constantly suppressing the curses pouring in endlessly!

The national destiny dragon vein was cut off at the waist. In the huge national destiny spiritual cloud, a demonic fetus with countless hands danced, a meatball with thousands of overlapping arms wriggling, carrying the huge national destiny spiritual cloud, and it crashed down.

In the Wei Chenghuang Temple, and in various god temples near Jiankang, divine light erupted.

Dozens of figures with profound auras and tyrannical power carrying divine light joined forces to support the national destiny spiritual cloud.

"The Southern Jin national destiny is collapsing, dragging down many gods. All Wei Chenghuang righteous gods must join forces to support the Southern Jin destiny and cannot spare their hands!" Tao Heavenly Master said solemnly.

"The Demonic Path is vicious, as expected!"

Zhang Tianshi's yellow talisman wrapped in thunder light suddenly struck toward the demonic clouds in the sky. Countless thunder lights intertwined, turning the demons remaining in the clouds into ash.

Taotie Old Xie Xie Zushi met the yellow talisman, and a blood-colored short hook like a crescent moon struck out.

Blood light shuttled through the demonic qi, extinguishing the thunder wherever it went.

Taotie Old Xie Xie Zushi laughed long: "Old Ghost Zhang, even if you brought the Five Thunders Prison-Suppressing Divine Talisman down the mountain, so what?"

"The Old Xie Xie Zushi has also brought the Blood Moon Hook out of the Blood Sea. Today, you can't save anyone!"

…………

Cui Dan saw the painted-skin demon girl rush out of the Sanhua Building earlier. Her red silk ribbon probed out, wrapping around a large mansion, covering the entire mansion so that the people inside couldn't escape.

Immediately after, she rushed into it, and the red silk ribbon in her hand passed through several people, bringing up six or seven heads with a wave.

Only hearing bursts of miserable wails coming from the mansion, when the demon girl soared into the sky again, the heads hanging on the red silk ribbon could actually still cry out.

She rose and fell at will, killing dozens of people with a wave, a string of heads trailing behind, making the nearby common people terrified and fleeing in panic!

Cui Dan's eyes were about to split, and he roared: "Stop!"

That female demon cultivator crushed the head of a young girl again, licked the brains in her hand, turned back to look at Cui Dan, and giggled: "You were lucky to escape with your life, yet you don't flee far away. You truly have courage! The bones and blood of cultivators are much more useful than these mortals! I will fulfill you this once!"

Before the words fell, she turned into a ball of blood light and rushed over.

Cui Dan ignored the emptiness in his body and tried his best to activate his magic power, striking out a fire snake with wings, wanting to wrap it around the demon girl.

Just as the demon girl was about to break the fire snake and use the red silk ribbon to wrap him up, she saw a sword light flash in mid-air.

A beautiful head with a look of horror fell from mid-air, and the demon girl's headless corpse fell not far away, her face still carrying a trace of incredible shock.

Cui Dan looked up, only to see Wang Zhiyuan holding a golden bell in one hand and a sword in the other, stepping on the rubble not far away.

This Dao Academy Yin Spirit swung his sword to cut down a few Yin demons, turned back to look at Cui Dan, and said: "The demons in the city are not low in cultivation, you kid can't handle it, go home quickly!"

"Senior!"

Before Cui Dan could finish his words, he saw him go to another place where the crying was loud!

Wang Zhiyuan looked down at the fires everywhere in the city, looked into the distance, and saw demonic qi in all directions. Many demon cultivators didn't show their faces but manipulated evil ghosts to kill people. Seeing this, Wang Zhiyuan sighed: "Forget it! Forget it! How can an object compare to human life?"

The golden bell in his hand flew up, turning into the size of a house, with countless divine texts flowing on it.

The golden light was exposed, extremely dazzling, illuminating half the city.

With a roar from Wang Zhiyuan, the golden bell vibrated, emitting sounds that swept through several streets in the surroundings... ===== CHAPTER 476 =====

The golden bell in his hand flies up, transforming into the size of a house, with countless divine scripts flowing over it.

The golden light is exposed, dazzling to the extreme, illuminating a small half of the city.

Following a roar from Wang Zhiyuan, the golden bell vibrates, emitting peals of thunderous sound that sweep through the surrounding streets...
