Chapter 158 The Demons Make Their Move
"kill"
"So much blood food"
"I want to eat my fill."
The four Demon Kings emerged, each radiating an aura of quasi-saint level, their strength in no way inferior to that of innate gods and demons such as Azure Dragon and Vermilion Bird.
Xu Qiankun recognized the leader at a glance; it was none other than Mara, who called himself the "Demon Lord of the Desire Realm."
"Along with Mara, there should be the Star-Eating Demon King Ketu, the Heart Demon King Moro, and the Heaven-Burning Demon King Chonglou."
Xu Qiankun's gaze lingered for a moment on the demon king whose aura faintly echoed the stars in the sky. Among the four demon kings, this one should be the strongest, not much weaker than Tianhuang and Yuanfeng individually.
Then there's Chonglou, a true innate god and demon, whose combat power isn't too different from Jidu's.
As for Mara and Moro, these two are of average combat strength. What makes them troublesome is their various methods of inducing desires and mental tribulations, which are more dangerous than Ketu and Moro for some cultivators with poor character.
Following the four Demon Kings were eight Demon Generals, each possessing the strength of a peak Great Luo Golden Immortal. They were not the weaklings from the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans who had risen through merit, but rather genuine peak Great Luo combat power.
Their combat power is not much worse than that of Qinglong and other innate gods and demons at the Great Luo realm.
"Eight Supreme-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures of the Demonic Path"
Having refined the two innate gods and demons, Destruction and Slaughter, Xu Qiankun saw through their true nature at a glance.
Within each demon general lies a top-grade innate spiritual treasure as its core. Rather than describing them as peak Grand Luo Golden Immortals, it would be more accurate to say that they are top-grade innate spiritual treasures unleashing their full power.
"Rahu is truly wealthy."
Xu Qiankun was filled with excitement. He was extremely poor right now. Of his five clones, apart from the current main combat clone and his original body in the chaos, the other three clones could only be made up with some acquired spiritual treasures that he had refined himself.
It's fine for dealing with Grand Luo Golden Immortals, but when it comes to battles against Quasi-Saints, the acquired spiritual treasures are simply not enough.
Behind the eight demon generals were ten other beings emanating an evil aura. Each of them was also a being with innate energy.
These ten individuals also possess innate spiritual treasures, but they are only of the high-grade level.
"There are eighteen innate spiritual treasures here alone. Is Luo Hou truly favored by Heaven and a chosen one of destiny?"
Xu Qiankun couldn't help but complain, thinking that he had wandered around the prehistoric world for hundreds of millions of years and hadn't acquired many treasures.
After the Four Demon Kings, the Eight Demon Generals, and the Ten Fierce Gods, there are almost endless demon sons and grandsons. These demon sons and grandsons all come from the four races created by Rahu: the Formless Heavenly Demon, the Heartless Demon, the Desireless Heart Demon, and the Ruthless Free Heavenly Demon.
These demons may vary in strength, with the strong being Great Luo Golden Immortals and the weak being True Immortals, but they all have one thing in common: they are all ferocious and bloodthirsty.
The demons stormed into the formation, indiscriminately slaughtering the powerful members of the three innate races.
Those they slaughtered had their bodies and souls devoured, and the weak demon race's strength steadily increased.
"So this is the demon race created by Rahu? They are indeed very strong."
Even though he was blinded by the aura of calamity, the Five Elements Ancestor couldn't help but sigh.
The innate gods and demons who can gather here are all those who created the acquired human races, and they have all achieved a great deal. However, none of the races they created can be as ferocious and powerful as the demon race created by Rahu.
"How could it not be powerful? Luo Hou did not create merely the demon race, but the founder of the demonic path, shining brightly alongside the founder of the xuanmen."
Xu Qiankun thought to himself, but he didn't even glance at Hongjun, nor did he show any emotional fluctuation.
"These three innate races are really unlucky."
Xu Qiankun's attention was more focused on the battlefield below.
At this time, the three innate races were still fighting each other. They were deceived and could not sense the danger at all. They had even lost their rationality, much like the ferocious beasts that were almost extinct three thousand years ago. They could only act on instinct.
Even when the demons' swords were about to fall on their own heads, they were still focused on killing their opponents, and some simply self-destructed.
The great war lasted for more than half a year, and the three innate races were almost wiped out.
High in the sky, a glimmer of clarity suddenly appeared in the eyes of the three innate gods and demons, Zulong, Yuanfeng, and Shiqilin, who were fighting desperately.
"What happened?"
Why am I here?
"Celestial Phoenix..."
Familiar yet unfamiliar memories flooded the minds of the three powerful figures, instantly turning their faces ashen. They then quickly separated, forming a triangular opposition.
They both looked down at the battlefield.
The place was already filled with devastation, with countless demon soldiers and generals wreaking havoc. The earth was covered with the corpses of the three races, and only a few powerful individuals remained to fight against the demons.
"A backlash from fortune, a great calamity is about to descend."
"This is an attempt to wipe out our three primordial races!"
At this moment, the secrets of heaven were released, and endless heavenly secrets and causes surged into his heart, and the Ancestral Dragon's face showed sorrow.
At this moment, the secrets of heaven were released, and endless heavenly secrets and causes surged into his heart, and the Ancestral Dragon's face showed sorrow.
As if struck by a sudden inspiration, a resolute look suddenly appeared in the eyes of the Ancestral Dragon. He raised his head to look at the sky and said in a firm voice, "Heavenly Dao above, I, the Ancestral Dragon, the patriarch of the primordial dragon clan, know that restraining my people is not conducive to causing calamity in the primordial world. I am willing to sacrifice my own path and give up the merits and fortune of my innate race so that the dragon clan may forever guard the East Sea and become auspicious. I hope that Heavenly Dao will have mercy on me."
After saying this, a cloud of auspiciousness rose from the top of the ancestral dragon's head. This cloud of auspiciousness was the foundation of his Great Dao and the external manifestation of the fundamental Great Dao that he had mastered.
Auspicious clouds rose up and quickly fell into the primordial east, merging with a sea area and creating a vast world spanning trillions of kilometers. Then, they disappeared into the deep space, hanging above the moon and the sun, becoming the Supreme Emperor Huangzeng Heaven.
Buzz
A gentle breeze swept through the heavens and earth, completely dispelling the calamity aura on all the dragon beings. They returned to normal, but only a few remained. Among the innate gods and demons, only the Azure Dragon and the Black Tortoise were still alive, but both were severely injured.
Seeing this scene, the First Emperor was filled with grief.
If it weren't for His so-called grand ambitions and conquests, how could the dragon race have suffered such a miserable fate?
Seeing that the Ancestral Dragon made his choice without hesitation, the First Qilin's thoughts were extremely strong. He also said without hesitation, "Heaven above, I am the First Qilin, the patriarch of the Qilin clan. I have failed to restrain my clan members, causing calamity to befall all living beings in the prehistoric world. I am willing to sacrifice my own path and give up the merits and fortune of my innate race so that the Qilin clan can be used to suppress the prehistoric world. I am an auspicious beast. I hope that Heaven will have mercy on me."
After the First Qilin finished speaking, auspicious clouds appeared above its head. These clouds fell into the central land of the primordial wilderness, encompassing trillions of kilometers of territory, and transformed into a vast world, residing above the Supreme Emperor Huangzang Heaven, which became known as the Taiming Yuwan Heaven.
The merits and fortune of the Qilin clan and the descendants of Pangu vanished instantly.
"Heaven above, I am Yuan Feng, the patriarch of the Phoenix Clan... I am willing to abandon the path of cultivation and relinquish the innate merits and fortune of my race. From now on, the Phoenix Clan will forever guard the Undying Fire Domain, and its appearance will bring auspicious omens. We will never contend for supremacy in the primordial world. I hope Heaven will grant my request."
Auspicious clouds flew out from above Yuan Feng's head, transforming into a vast world that hung above the Taiming Yuwan Heaven, which became known as the Qingming Hetong Heaven.
After the three clan leaders finished doing these things, all the beings in the three clan factions lost their calamity and regained consciousness.
Seeing that the demons were still slaughtering the powerful members of the three races, the three powerful figures, Zulong, Shiqilin, and Yuanfeng, immediately landed. Zulong said politely, "Fellow demons, we have escaped the great calamity. Please stop and let us return."
"Haha, I'll let you wait until you come back."
Just then, an arrogant voice came from behind the three powerful figures, including Zu Long. Luo Hou appeared out of nowhere, and the God-Slaying Spear had already entered Zu Long's body.
expensive
The First Dragon howled, uttering a mournful dragon roar.
The God-Slaying Spear is the most vicious innate treasure, specifically designed to counter the true forms and souls of innate gods and demons.
Under the God-Slaying Spear, the Ancestral Dragon's enormous innate divine and demonic body was suspended in the air like a bedbug, struggling helplessly.
"Clan Chief"
Seeing this, Azure Dragon and Black Tortoise were furious and charged at Rahu without hesitation, but were blocked by Mara and Moro.
"Could the First Emperor have died so hastily?"
Xu Qiankun witnessed this scene firsthand, and his heart was filled with turmoil, but he also managed to sort out some of his thoughts.
"The Way of Heaven is truly ruthless. Is it planning to completely erase all traces of Pangu's existence in the primordial world?"
Xu Qiankun could see clearly that the three innate races were formed from parts of Pangu's body and had also eliminated a large number of ferocious beasts in the prehistoric world, thus possessing great merit and fortune.
Even in the later stages of the Great Tribulation, only the Phoenix Clan's Heavenly Phoenix had fallen among the three clan leaders. When it fell, all its merits and fortunes were transferred to the Yuan Phoenix, which gave the Yuan Phoenix, who was originally slightly weaker, the qualification to contend with the Ancestral Dragon and the Primordial Qilin.
As long as they do not voluntarily give up their merits and fortune, that is their protective charm, and even Rahu cannot kill the Ancestral Dragon and the like.
Because the birth of this world is related to their father god, they are the rightful heirs of the primordial world.
These three guys were blinded by the aura of the calamity and terrified, fearing the extinction of their race, so they made this decision.
It's also possible that the will of Heaven is deliberately guiding things.
This not only failed to save their race, but also harmed them, as well as the Five Elements Ancestor, the Yin-Yang Ancestor, and other innate gods and demons.
Because the calamity energy wasn't eliminated, but rather transferred, from the three primordial races to the primordial gods and demons who came to watch the spectacle.
