Chapter 1365: Chapter 1364: Four Demon Battle Undying Phoenix

“So, you’re here to kill me?” Xu Zimei asked.

The words of the Immortal Holy King weren’t wrong.

The Demon’s Advent Era, that was already a matter of the Primordial Era.

And his fame rose in the Ancient Era, the gap between them is imaginable.

Many things have already been buried by the dust of time.

The elder smiled and nodded.

He extended his right hand and grabbed a handful of sand from the ground.

This desert lacks everything except sand.

The coarse sand flowed in his palm, until finally, only a single grain remained in the elder’s hand.

“If it were in that ancient Demon’s Advent Era,

I might have been as insignificant as a grain of sand before you.

But now your era has long passed.

Even the world has forgotten.

To me now, you are merely like this single grain.”

“You’re wrong, who can truly speak of matters between the Eternal Ancient?”

Xu Zimei calmly replied.

“You, you, wouldn’t it be better to retire quietly in your Boundless sea?

Why come to stir these muddy waters?”

“I, the gravedigger, if I bury the former Demon Lord, would have no regrets,” the Undying Saint King shook his head.

“That is my purpose here.

Not for grudges, but for no regrets.”

“Will there be no regrets, I don’t know.

But your integrity in old age is sure to suffer,” Xu Zimei clapped his hands.

Out of the dancing sands, several figures filled with demonic qi slowly emerged.

Among them were Bai Meng, the Seven-faced Demon General, Crimson Blade Bull Demon, and Demon Venerable Tianpeng.

“Let my few unworthy War Generals entertain you,” Xu Zimei said.

“It seems the Holy Ancestor guessed correctly.

You managed to survive multiple captures by the Holy Court, surely you have someone protecting your path,” the Immortal Holy King said gravely.

If it was a single Demon General, he wouldn’t fear.

But to have four appear at once was more severe than he imagined.

“There’s plenty the Holy Ancestor doesn’t know.

Don’t always think you can control the heavens and earth.

Who is the actual player in this chess game is not certain,” Xu Zimei said.

The Holy Ancestor didn’t know he had obtained the legacy of the former Demon Lord in the Lost Lands.

If he used this power, not to mention the elder before him.

Even if the Holy Ancestor came, he might not be the opponent.

The peak of the former Demon Lord, what an existence was that.

The Holy Court wasn’t even considered, truly invincible in the mortal world.

Able to confront the Great Dao, a being challenging heaven.

……

Bai Meng and the others looked at the Immortal Holy King.

Bai Meng sighed, “Remarkable, I didn’t expect you to walk a new path.”

“What new path, it’s just a forced dead end,” the Immortal Holy King shook his head and sighed.

“My path was too smooth, and it led to such a downfall.”

He rose in the Ancient Era.

At that time, he was already a once-in-a-million Talented Disciple.

In a very short time, he stepped into the Great Saint Realm, almost stunning the entire Ancient Era.

Calling himself the gravedigger was just a way to experience different opponents and ultimately perfect his Great Dao.

In the Ancient Era, he was already a Holy King.

He always wanted to cross into the Taoist Fruit Realm and open the eleventh Vein Gate.

So, post-Ancient Era, throughout the Middle Ages, he was in seclusion.

Even as the Middle Ages became history, he never emerged.

Unfortunately, the difficulty of opening the eleventh Vein Gate was almost indescribable.

Finally, he gave up.

He no longer hoped to open the eleventh Vein Gate, but instead began to perfect his Holy King Dao.

Ultimately, his strength became increasingly formidable.

Even surpassing many Holy Kings.

He blazed a new path after the Holy King.

Unfortunately, this path had limited potential, and now he had reached its end.

This meant he could never transcend the Taoist Fruit in this life.

No matter how he evolved or strived, he could no longer grow stronger.

Taking one more step was as difficult as climbing to the heavens.

This was the cost.

The cost of growing stronger on a dead end path.

……

However, Bai Meng and the others did not ridicule him.

Instead, they sighed, “The path to the Taoist Fruit is indeed daunting.

We have weathered tens of millions of years, ultimately hovering before the door of the Holy King.”

“But you have upheld your Daoist Heart, never giving up on entering the Tao, ” the Immortal Holy King said somberly.

“And I gave up on my own accord.”

“Enough, I came here today only to bury the past, not to discuss old matters.”

“Then today, we shall face you on behalf of our master,” Bai Meng said calmly.

Heaven-reaching Demonic Qi already suffused the air.

In the desolate desert, perhaps for the first time in millions of years, such a massive battle erupted.

The Immortal Holy King raised his head, and he began to get serious.

Behind him, wisps of flames ignited.

Ultimately forming the creature of an Undying Phoenix.

“You’re not human,” Sage Zixia said in surprise.

“One of the Eight Demon Tribes, the Undying Phoenix,” the Bright Moon Fairy also frowned slightly.

They had naturally heard of the Sixteen Demon Tribes.

Yet, as rulers of the Monster Race, members of the Sixteen Demon Tribes were not numerous.

They rarely appeared in other domains.

So even if people had heard of them, they might never truly encounter one.

“I don’t dare claim to be of the Monster Race, I am the Immortal Holy King, unrelated to others,” the Immortal Holy King shook his head and said.

Hearing this, Sage Zixia didn’t dwell too much.

As the royal family of the Monster Race, the Ten-and-Six Demonic Beasts were unquestionably powerful, among the strongest.

However, Xu Zimei beside him had a peculiar expression.

Since acquiring the Monster Mirror, he paid special attention to the matters of the Sixteen Demon Tribes.

“Since it’s the Undying Phoenix, reincarnation and rebirth are innate supernatural abilities, nothing surprising,” he thought.

Bai Meng and the others surrounded the Immortal Holy King.

Powerful demonic qi erupted ceaselessly.

Enveloping the entire firmament, this world seemed to become a demon realm.

The Seven-faced Demon General blossomed a Seven-faced Lotus.

Demonic qi imbued with threads of killing intent surged forward.

The Immortal Holy King’s right fist glowed with the rich Undying Flame.

He delivered a fierce punch.

The Seven-faced Lotus shattered from a single blow.

But immediately, the lotus’s demonic qi clung to his fist like a bone-gnawing poison.

Meanwhile, the Crimson Blade Bull Demon reverted to his true form.

Like a towering Bull Demon.

Holding a giant axe, each step left a deep imprint in the ground.

He swung the axe down.

The Undying Phoenix behind the Immortal Holy King shrieked, its visage becoming somewhat blurred.

As for Bai Meng, he teamed up with Demon Venerable Tianpeng.

Two powerful currents of demonic qi, like torrents, twisted together to strike.

“Well done,” the Immortal Holy King shouted fiercely.

He soared into the sky, a massive wing stretching wide behind him.

The fiery wings engulfed the entire firmament.

Closing around him, enveloping him entirely.

Then, he was like a slowly rising sun.

The flames within were eternal and indestructible.
