Chapter 564: Chapter 392: The Trouble-making West Saint Part 2!
“Control them, create an opportunity for Daoist Xuanqing!”
Taiqing Daode Tianzun shouted out loud.
As he said this, he dragged his seriously injured body and rushed towards the remaining few demons, his duster flowing with Daoist rhyme, once again using divine powers with sealing functions.
“Immortal Slayer Sword Array!”
“Bodhi Dust!”
“Reversal of Creation….”
…
At this moment.
Yuqing Lingbao Tianzun, Xiqing Zhunti Jieyin, Nuwa… along with the other five Sages, seized the opportunity and exerted their full strength to perform their divine powers to capture the enemy.
For the six Sages, as long as they could detain the enemy, it meant they could annihilate them.
For the demons, being detained meant enduring the might of self-destruction and being utterly obliterated.
Both sides were fighting for their lives!
After one breath.
Boom!
Another tremendous fluctuation appeared, signaling that the once ten great demons were now down by one more, leaving only seven demons remaining.
It was the demon controlled by Lingbao Tianzun that had been eliminated.
Just like Taiqing Daode Tianzun, even while suffering severe injuries from Xuanqing’s self-destruction, Lingbao Tianzun still dragged his battered body and charged at the remaining demons.
The reason for such actions.
Was because everyone knew that this was the only chance to eradicate the demons.
If the opponent escaped this time, there would be no coming back without a way to withstand Xuanqing’s terrifying self-destruction method.
Boom~
A massive surge once again shook heaven and earth!
At this moment.
There were only six demons left, and although every Sage of the Primordial World was wounded, there were also six of them.
Under similar realms, an Immortal of Primordial Chaos was far stronger than an ordinary Chaos Immortal, by not just a little bit.
It was over!
Completely done for.
The remaining six demons showed utter despair, reliant on their numbers to gradually wear down the origin of the Primordial World; now, in one-on-one situations, even if their adversaries were injured, they were no match for them.
In fact, after such a prolonged fight and completely exhausted, they couldn’t even flee.
“Roar… such hatred….”
Boom~
Their voices were drowned out by the massive sound of self-destruction.
Six Sages against five demons certainly added another layer to the despair.
However.
No matter how desperate the demons were or how much they regretted in their hearts, Xuanqing’s self-destruction continued relentlessly.
Boom~
Only four remained!!!
Boom… Boom…
Two breaths later, only the last two remained.
One with dual horns on its head and three tails behind it, and another muscular and solid as a rock humanoid demon.
The final two demons looked at each other and then burst into mad laughter.
“Hahaha~”
The aura emanating from their bodies was expanding intensely.
“Not good, these two demons are going to self-destruct too, run….”
The faces of the Two Sages, Jieyin and Zhunti, changed dramatically, sensing that the demons they controlled were about to self-destruct like Daoist Xuanqing had, they were extremely horrified.
Although their spirits were entrusted to the Heavenly Path, meaning they could gradually recover over time even if they died in the demons’ self-destruction,
But the key point was… what if the Primordial World ran out of its origin and returned to the Endless Chaos before they recovered? Wouldn’t they be truly finished?
And at the moment they fled.
An unexpected turn of events occurred.
“Foolish, you’ve been deceived!”
The two demons, originally poised for self-destruction, suddenly changed their auras, opting instead to perform an escaping technique.
Whoosh~
Two streaks of light flashed past.
The gaze swept across the area again, but there was no sign of any Demon Gods—they had indeed managed to escape.
???
Silence!
Utter silence!
Taiqing Daode Tianzun, Tongtian, Lingbao, Nuwa, and Daoist Xuanqing, who had just resurrected on the spot, all shifted their gazes in that direction.
“Uh… this… that…”
The Two Saints Zhunti and Jieyin looked embarrassed, as if they wanted to find a hole in the Endless Chaos and burrow into it.
Thick-skinned as they were, they still found it impossible to accept their own behavior just now; it was truly… too humiliating.
“No… we didn’t expect the Demon God to be so cunning…”
“Alas… shameful, truly shameful…”
Saint Zhunti turned his head away, not daring to meet everyone’s eyes.
To the side, Saint Jieyin was also hanging his head low, practicing nose-to-heart reflection, looking very docile.
Seeing this.
Everyone was speechless.
Tongtian, the leader of the sect, seized the opportunity and sarcastically mocked, “We, as immortals within the realm, have our primordial spirits entrusted to the Heavenly Path and cannot die. Why are you so cowardly?”
“That… that… that…” Saint Jieyin’s face turned red, wanting to retort but not knowing how to begin.
“Enough, Tongtian, let’s not speak of this anymore. Now that seven out of the ten great Gods and Devils are gone, only Wutian the Demon God and the two that fled are not to be feared,” Taiqing Daode Tianzun said with an indifferent gaze as he glanced at the Two Saints of the West.
To be honest.
He had never held the Two Saints Zhunti and Jieyin from the West in high regard—after all, one of their saintly standings was begged from Daoist Friend Hongyun.
…
The Six Saints touched the crystal ball, healed their injuries first, and then, under the lead of Taiqing Daode Tianzun, approached Daoist Xuanqing.
“This time, the Primordial World has averted its crisis, all thanks to Daoist Friend’s efforts. On behalf of all the creatures of the Primordial World, I pay my respects to you!”
Having spoken those words.
Taiqing Daode Tianzun wore a serious expression, his hands forming a mudra lifted high above his forehead… and bowed deeply to the other.
“Many thanks!”
“On behalf of all the creatures of the Primordial World, we thank Daoist Friend Xuanqing for his rescue!”
Leader Tongtian of the Supreme Clarity, Taiqing Lingbao Tianzun, the Two Saints of the West, and Nuwa—all five of the Sages—simultaneously formed mudras over their foreheads and solemnly bowed deeply.
Even the Two Saints of the West, who had past grievances with Xuanqing, were genuinely grateful at this moment.
If not for Xuanqing, under the united front of the ten great Gods and Devils, they could at best have held out for a hundred years, or even less, before the Primordial World would be devoured.
By then.
They, who had entrusted their primordial spirits to the Heavenly Path as Chaos Immortals within the realm, would perish alongside the world’s destruction.
And for the creatures within the world, even if they managed to escape before its destruction, the first challenge would be facing the attack from the ten great Gods and Devils, as well as countless minor ones—a likely death awaited them.
At this moment.
Confronted with the salutations of the assembly of Sages.
Daoist Xuanqing quickly stepped forward to first help Taiqing Daode Tianzun up, then proceeded to assist Leader Tongtian of the Supreme Clarity and Taiqing Lingbao Tianzun to their feet.
After helping all the Sages rise,
“Seniors, while Xuan may come from beyond the heavens, the Primordial World can be considered half my home, and naturally, I would not stand by and watch it perish!”
“Moreover, my Taichu Dao Court lies within the Primordial, so the survival of the Primordial also concerns my own interests!” Daoist Xuanqing solemnly stated.
These words came from the heart—as he said, the Primordial World was half his home from an emotional perspective, and from a rational standpoint, the potential of the world’s incense was immense, plus he had a substantial foundation there.
…
Upon hearing these sincere words from Xuanqing, the Sages were moved.
“Good, very good indeed!”
Taiqing Daode Tianzun said the word ‘good’ thrice in a row, unable to hide the gratification in his eyes.
As the original form of Taishang Laojun, he had formed a deep master-disciple bond with Xuanqing.
Even though he now had to forgo this connection since Xuanqing had become a Chaos Immortal, the sentiments were not to be relinquished.
“Daoist Friend Xuanqing, I’ve long heard of your power of creation, that you can effortlessly replicate the Ten Great Spiritual Roots of Heaven and Earth, possessing countless Ginseng Fruit and Nine Thousand Years Flat Peaches in your hand.”
“Now that the Primordial matter is concluded and is indeed a great fortune for the world, why don’t we return to the Primordial and host a banquet to drink a toast to our success?” Leader Tongtian suggested.
The Three Pure Ones were one, and although they had their differences due to the Conferment of Gods, with the emergence of the ten great Demons as their common enemy, the affection between them had been rekindled.
Therefore,
towards this former disciple of big brother, Leader Tongtian held a great affinity, with his words conveying a sense of closeness.
