Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme-Chapter 848 - 526: The Aftermove_2

Nowadays, the Honored Wandao was trapped in the Heavenly Secret Realm, and they had to seize this opportunity no matter what, to obtain the seventh-rank Heavenly Mechanics Methods and bridge the gap in military strength between the two sides.

Otherwise...

"Boom!!!"

A loud noise shook the universe; it was a Demon God, struck by five thunderbolts atop his head, directly reduced to fine powder.

"Damn it!!!"

Outside the Twilight Realm, amidst the void, a Demon God shuddered massively, his face turning ashen, with fresh blood spilling from his mouth: "My second Primordial Spirit!"

Seeing this scene, the surrounding demon fiends also sighed.

"These Academy Monks..."

"Are utterly ruthless!"

"Fearless of death, how can we contend with them?"

"Hmph, they’re only capable of handling two or three calamities; in the Earth Immortal Realm, I could suppress them with a flip of my hand."

"The attack on the Twilight Realm is not going well; the situation in the other realms is probably not much different."

"Even though there are fluctuations between the Upper and Lower Realms over tens of thousands of years, has Wandao School really grown to such an extent?"

"It’s all because of the Mech Armor Power; the Heavenly Crafts Natural Creation, how could there be such a rebellious method in the world?"

"If we keep depleting like this, even if we win, it will be a Pyrrhic victory!"

"With the Demon Lord still in the Secret Realm, this battle can only rely on you from the Demon Race!"

"Demon Emperor, do you have a method to turn the tide?"

After these words, all demons focused their gaze on a group of Demon Gods.

Though they had already made up their minds to obtain the Heavenly Mechanics Methods at any cost, the attrition of life and death still inevitably caused heartache.

Not just heartache, but for the moment, no hope of victory was in sight, which naturally led to wavering spirits.

The Great Demons and Great Devils of five and six calamities felt this even more so; in this battle, they were the main force. After all, the Upper and Lower Realms differed. Many worlds could not tolerate those above Mahayana, as their forceful entry would cause rejection by heaven and earth, and even provoke Heavenly Punishments and tribulation thunder.

Therefore, they could only mobilize their second Primordial Spirit, their External Incarnation, in combination with some secret techniques, to lessen the rejection by heaven and earth, thus entering the Lower Realm.

But the battle prowess of the second Primordial Spirit, the External Incarnation, was clearly inferior to that of the original self, with at least a 30% reduction.

In contrast, the Academy Monks from Wandao School, with the strength of Mech Armor, could face against Immortal Gods of two or three calamities.

As this advantage grew, the demon fiends had to dispatch these incarnations of Great Demons and Devils of five and six calamities to suppress those in the Scholar’s Palace controlling Top-Grade Immortal Spirit Mech Armor.

However, this suppression was also unstable; a slight mistake could lead to being killed by the opponent, or even mutual destruction.

Up to this point in the battle, they had already lost quite a few hands. Although those were just External Incarnations, which are exceedingly precious, they are either the foundation of achieving Dao or a means to Crossing the Tribulation, tantamount to a second life; how could they be easily lost?

Therefore...

Facing the gaze of the demons, the group of Demon Gods did not say much, merely responding coldly with a single sentence: "His Majesty has his own plans."

"Plans?"

"What plans?"

The demons looked at each other, their brows furrowed deeply, yet they were powerless to do anything.

Even though, pressured by the Human Clan, Monster Nation and Demon Abyss had already formed an alliance, like the Heavenly Court’s Buddhist Sect, they remained two separate forces, often appearing united but divided in spirit.

The situation was no different now. With the Nine Nether Demon Lord within the Secret Realm, the task of attacking the Wandao School was solely undertaken by the Demon Emperor. With the offensive not proceeding well, and the Demon Emperor not showing his hand, it inevitably led to doubts within the Devil Race.

But despite their doubts, in the absence of the Demon Lord, who could contend with that Demon Emperor?

Helpless, the demons could only suppress their thoughts and see what the Demon Emperor truly had in mind.

So it went, for who knows how long.

Within the Twilight Realm, the slaughter rose to the heavens, blood staining the Jade Falls and Yellow Springs, but still the attack failed to make progress. The formations were repaired and reactivated, turning once again into a bloody mill, grinding countless demon fiends.

Outside the Twilight Realm, only deathly silence prevailed, a group of Demon Gods and Demon Venerates each with a grave expression, silent for a long time.

Just then...

"Shrieeek!!!"

A piercing cry resounded across the void, causing the eyes of the Demon fiends to snap to attention, all turning to look as one saw a phantom weaving its way through.

To call it a phantom, yet it was nevertheless brilliant to the extreme, for it was a Divine Bird, standing proudly as a phoenix, piercing through the Realm of Obscure Twilight.

"Is that...?"

"The Phoenix Master!?"

The cultivators’ gazes sharpened as they saw the Phoenix Shadow slice through the illusion, its wings like blades, cutting into the Twilight Realm.

"Bang!!!"

Instantly, the void shattered, heaven and earth trembled, elements of earth, wind, fire, and water surged forth, and the spatial boundaries and Heavenly Dao Laws were all impacted.

"This..."

"Phoenix Slash!"

"It is truly the Phoenix Master!"

"The laws of this realm are in chaos, the Heavenly Dao in disorder, no longer able to hinder us."

"Kill!!!"

The Calamity Realm Demon Fiends, seeing this, were greatly encouraged, and immediately soared into the sky, entering the Twilight Realm.

Immortals, Demons, Buddhists, Ghost Gods, Dragons, and Phoenixes!

Within the Demon Race, there are two great Imperial Clans: the Great Sun Golden Crow, and the Nine Heavens Caifeng; both clans possess a Nine Tribulations Supreme being, the present Demon Emperor and Phoenix Master.

The Demon Emperor needs no further mention, born of the Great Sun Golden Crow, he is indeed an Innate Sacred Being, and alongside the Nine Nether Demon Lord, the Great Sun Mahavairocana, and the Heavenly Court Taihuang Emperor, he stands among the Nine Tribulations Supremes, one of the top powerhouses among True Immortals.

The Phoenix Master too is not to be outdone, for as the Dragons and Phoenixes jointly preside over the Way of Space, the Phoenix Master, holding the Phoenix treasure "Phoenix Slash," has unrivaled mastery over the Way of Space, second to none amongst the lords of Immortals, Demons, Buddhists, and Ghost Gods.

Only that the Dragon and Phoenix Deities and Ghosts always counter each other and seldom get involved in the strife of Immortals, Demons, and Buddhists. Thus, the various Demon Gods and Demon Venerates also did not expect that this time the Demon Emperor would actually persuade the Phoenix Master.

But regardless, the intervention of the Phoenix Master was a favorable turn. The Phoenix Slash, breaking through the realm, caused a huge shock to the Realm of Obscure of Twilight. With the natural order disrupted and laws in disarray, they no longer had the power to keep out these Calamity Realm Demon Fiends.

Therefore...

"Kill!!!"

In the midst of the Twilight Realm, the battle raged ceaselessly, blood flowing into rivers.

Suddenly, the world trembled as a Phoenix Shadow broke through the air. Its wings slashed down like knives, tearing open a huge fissure in the universe, causing the elements of Earth, Wind, Fire, and Water to descend into chaos, assaulting and dispersing the battle formations, layer by layer.

The situation collapsed in an instant, and before the combatants could react, the heavenly scar worsened, and the Demon Fiends descended upon the realm.

"Phoenix Clan!"

Within the Scholar’s Palace, Phoenix Song watched with cold eyes, piloting the White Jade Capital, and the Five Colors Divine Light surged towards the sky, heading straight for the Demon Fiends.

"Ignorant juniors, will you not come to your senses and return from your wayward path!"

Just then, a cold voice suddenly rang out. The Phoenix Shadow descended with its wings outspread, overshadowing the Five Colors Divine Light and engulfing the White Jade Immortal City.

In the face of a Nine Tribulations True Immortal, even the most favored of Heaven shows no power.

"Ha!"

"Phoenix Master, you truly care for your clan’s younger generation!"

"Hmph, that Little Phoenix is touted as the number one prodigy of the Wandao School, certainly having received the true transmission of Li Liuxian’s Taoism. Capturing her not only secures the Heavenly Mechanics Methods but also the Ten Thousand Paths Secret Arts—a treasure like this, how could one not cherish it?"

"Having exerted much effort for the Monster Nation and Phoenix Clan, we of the Devil Race must not fall behind, or else we might end up being dominated by others!"

"Leave that person to me, as it is my Primordial Spirit that was destroyed second, and I want to exact a thorough retribution!"

"Kill!!!"

As the Phoenix Shadow’s wings descended and covered the White Jade Immortal City, the Demon Fiends moved even faster, rushing towards their targets.

And in this moment...

"Hum!!!"

A humming sound reverberated, and in the void, Sword Qi surged.

"Hm!?"

"This..."

"Not good!!!!"

The movements of the Demon Fiends suddenly stalled, their hearts seized with foreboding, filled with ominous premonitions.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Just as the alarms arose, the world shook, winds howled, clouds roiled, and thunder and lightning raged, filled with Sword Qi taking form. In the void, from the nothingness, Yuan Spirit Qi transformed into a vast stream of sword energy.

Within the battlefield, inside the array formations, Sword Momentum shot into the sky, everything became a sword, all laws turned into swords, and all dao manifested as swords.

At last...

"Bang!!!"

A loud bang, earth-shattering, and a blaze of brilliant light, coming from beyond the realm, slashed into the Twilight Realm, striking directly at the Phoenix’s shadow.

Within the blaze of glory, a sword majestic and dignified materialized, engraved with the sun and moon, stars, plants and mountains, as well as the arts of farming and animal husbandry, and the Strategy of Uniting the all Lands. Brilliant and majestic, it was indeed the first Holy Divine Weapon of ancient and modern times.

It was...

"Nine Rituals Heavenly Venerate!"

"Li Liuxian!!!"

Amidst the cries of shock, the Holy Sword broke through the realm, penetrating the hangings of heaven, and struck heavily against the Phoenix Master’s shadow.

In an instant, the Phoenix cried tears of blood, dyeing the heavens red!
