The Dao Fruit of the Daoist True Lord and the supreme treasure of the Demonic Sect generated a resonance, and with this demonic treasure as the center, a colorless halo suddenly appeared.

A myriad of golden lotuses and a thousand celestial lamps were like a key, unlocking the final wondrous use of the Heavenly Demon Li Guang Ruler.

Even though I have already ascended to the Supreme Heavenly Demon Fruit position, with a heart as unfathomable as a demon’s, I couldn’t help but feel both surprised and delighted at this moment.

The vitality deduced by the Yantian Pearl lay in the past, not the future. I had always thought I was doomed with no hope of survival, but when the Dao Fruit of George Hill actually unlocked the final wondrous use of the Heavenly Demon Li Guang Ruler, I finally understood why the Yantian Pearl’s calculation revealed this sliver of hope.

It has long been rumored in the Demonic Sect that the Heavenly Demon Li Guang Ruler possesses the marvel of traversing past and future, but only today has this been confirmed. It turns out that only with the Dao Fruit of a certain Daoist True Lord as a guide can this final wondrous use be unlocked.

Although the final wondrous use of the Heavenly Demon Li Guang Ruler was unlocked, its power was still insufficient. If George Hill could go a step further and reach the legendary realm of the Immortal, he would be able to fully unleash the final wondrous use of the Heavenly Demon Li Guang Ruler. But now, his cultivation is simply not enough to support this demonic treasure in activating the ability to traverse past and future.

I steeled my heart, my demonic body expanded to ten thousand zhang, and I self-detonated, the boundless Li Hen demonic light erupting and transforming entirely into the force that pushed open the colorless halo.

How formidable is the Supreme Heavenly Demon True Body I have forged through centuries of bitter cultivation?

The Li Hen demonic light released from the shattering of my ten-thousand-zhang demonic body was enough to destroy hundreds of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, annihilating all sentient beings.

Driven by the surging Li Hen demonic light, at the very core of the colorless halo, a speck of black light finally emerged. I controlled the Yantian Pearl and, without hesitation, passed through the colorless halo, plunging into that point of pure, unadulterated darkness.

The boundless heavenly tribulation of blades and soldiers collapsed in the next instant!

The chaotic mass formed by the heavenly tribulation also dissipated in a flash, and the sky returned to its clear blue for thousands of miles. The Great Freedom Heavenly Demon Banner and the Heavenly Demon Li Guang Ruler paused slightly, then each soared into the sky, vanishing from sight in the blink of an eye.

The seven great True Lords did not know how such a change had occurred. Each secretly furrowed their brows and calculated for a while. Frank Ford exclaimed, “This demon’s fate is utterly exhausted; he should have been destroyed by the heavenly tribulation. But this demon’s power is vast, and even after passing through the eighth heavenly tribulation, he was unscathed. He shouldn’t have been killed so easily. Such a change is truly bizarre.”

Henry Ford shook his head and said, “My calculations are the same. This demon’s future fate is utterly exhausted, with no hope of survival.”

The other five True Lords each silently calculated for a moment, then nodded in succession. Frank Ford sighed and said, “We have all calculated that this demon’s fate is utterly exhausted. There should be no mistake. It seems the outcome is certain, though we do not know the reason behind it.”

The seven great True Lords each cupped their hands slightly, turned into light, and departed, none paying any attention to the Myriad Demons Hall below.

Heavenly Demon Pays Respect to the Dao

Chapter One: Taking a Master on Mount Emei

Richard King leapt up, sweat streaming down his forehead.

After a quarter of an hour, he hesitantly opened his palm.

A bead as if made of crystal spun rapidly in his palm.

If one looked closely, they would find that within this bead was a world of its own—not only clouds swirling and mist rising, with clear and turbid divided, but also mountains, rivers, and all living things, a truly marvelous sight.

“Yantian Pearl! Was it this that helped me withstand the divine power of the Mirror of Returning Immortals?”

Richard King came from the Tianxin Temple, a branch of the Demonic Sect, and was the most outstanding disciple in the temple’s several hundred years of history, as well as the only disciple in nearly a century to master both the Duoluo Sense and the Dilu Sense from the Tianxin Temple’s “Five Senses Demonic Scroll.”

Tianxin Temple is a heterodox branch of the Demonic Sect, but the “Five Senses Demonic Scroll” passed down within the temple is orthodox Heavenly Demon, originating from the “Heavenly Demon Myriad Transformations Profound Scripture” of the Demonic Extreme Sect, and the five senses divine powers cultivated are incomparably wondrous.
