Please, Young Master, Slay the Demon!

Chapter 910: Chapter 18: Fatal Strike [Requesting Monthly Pass!]

Although the plan to ambush the Demon God was agreed upon in the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, due to the presence of a considerable number of opponents and neutrals, not all cultivators from the Immortal Sects participated in the battle.

Indeed, too many powerful beings acting together might not produce a positive effect; it could instead lead to chaos on the battlefield.

The first formation to engage the enemy was composed of the most resolute factions from the God-killing Sect, namely Tianshu Pavilion, Heavenly King Sect, Shu Mountain Sect, and Venerable Wanfa. They used the mightiest Divine Artifacts and struck with the fiercest blows!

Behind them, some from the Neutral Sects observed the battle situation, ready to act if needed. However, if the vanguard proved sufficient, they would not risk engaging.

A small faction of dissidents wished to maintain the status quo, believing that a feeble, dormant Demon God was the best scenario for the Mortal Realm, and thus, they were reluctant to join the battle.

Under the plan of the God-killing Sect, ideally, no personnel would follow; their first formation intended to utterly eradicate the source!

"Slash—"

Master Wen Yuan’s robes fluttered as he pointed towards the infinitely radiant figure in front of him and shouted abruptly.

Shu Mountain struck first!

With an indifferent gaze, Daoist Yan mobilized his True Yuan, instantly activating the Royal Ship Technique.

Boom—

The enormous Shu Mountain Divine Boat, propelled by Daoist Master Jue Yun’s technique, broke through the sky with massive momentum, truly possessing the might to annihilate gods.

Thud!

The slash from the Shu Mountain Divine Boat, capable of severing the Universe Ring in one strike, revealed a power difficult for even Divine Artifacts to withstand directly. But as it surged forward, a burst of golden light surged, blocking the advance of the Divine Ship.

With a muffled sound, the "Demon God" raised an arm, squarely taking the brunt of the Bronze Divine Boat’s prow. The golden light seemed to fracture but was instantly repaired.

A hint of puzzlement appeared in the eyes of the Demon God.

Through ancient times, he had seen the Seven-Star Divine Sword, witnessed the Wang Jiang astrolabe, and even encountered the Universe Ring, facing a world of enemies and multiple Divine Artifacts besieging him was not a first.

But this particular presence, he truly had not seen before.

Snap crackle.

Another brittle sound, the golden light barrier in front of the Demon God thoroughly shattered; his fleshly palm made contact with the Divine Ship, feeling the endless sharp Sword Qi.

"Huh—" With a sudden inhale,

the Sword Qi instantly turned into a color of Chaos, sucked into his nostrils, the golden light on his body surged violently again!

"He’s absorbing Spiritual Power!"

Master Wen Yuan swept his sleeves, overturning chaos, as the Shu Mountain Divine Boat instantly repositioned, evading the Demon God’s assimilation.

In today’s Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, Shu Mountain has the longest history and had been the main force in combat against the Demon God. The secrets of battling the Demon God passed among the Sects, the records from Shu Mountain were the most detailed and effective.

Before this battle, the Shu Mountain Sect had shared these records with all the Immortal Sects.

They highlighted that the Demon God merged with the devouring path; anything that came close could serve as a source for his Spiritual Power. Thus, his Spiritual Power was almost infinite, and he could instantly replenish himself by devouring an enemy, making the situation seemingly hopeless.

That’s why they chose to stage the battlefield within the Universe Ring.

Besides the aim of trapping the Demon God and preventing harm to the innocents, a more crucial reason was that this place was a complete void.

Even the devouring path could not extract power from nothingness. Furthermore, all extra personnel had been cleared out, leaving the Demon God no soft targets to consume and replenish himself.

Already frail in his essence, such relentless attrition could eventually lead to his annihilation.

This Land of Nothingness had long been refined by Master Wen Yuan with the Qiankun Chessboard; with slight stimulation, it could maneuver the stars, completely his home ground!

Three thousand years ago, Shu Mountain was the main combatant, and three thousand years later, it remained the same!

...

Strike and move on, without success, do not engage further.

In another direction, Immortal Wulou, too, was solemn, activating the Seven-Star Divine Sword. As the highest-ranked Divine Sword on the scene, it brought monumental power even to the usually non-combative Tianshu Pavilion!

Boom—

This sword stroke split the heavens and the earth!

As one of the least utilized Divine Artifacts in the Ten Thousand Treasures Record, the Seven-Star Divine Sword ranked second with minimal records of use, often questioned. Many claimed that Tianshu Pavilion deliberately overvalued their own Divine Artifact to suppress the rankings of rival factions.

If those who spoke such words saw this strike, they would surely regret them.

Though Immortal Wulou was not specifically trained in the Sword Dao, this strike chilled the livers and gallbladders of everyone present.

The gaze of the Demon God turned even more cautious than when facing the Divine Ship, as he too knew just how terrifying this sword was. In ancient times, aside from the Demon Suppression Tower, only this sword posed the greatest threat to him.

If this were the outside world, countless mountains and rivers would already be shattered.

Whiz—

The Demon God leaped into the air, golden light flashing, dodging the first wave of sword aura. However, it was not that simple, as the light of the Divine Sword was inescapable and closely followed!

Having created some distance, the Demon God suddenly turned back, hands crossed over his chest, embracing his arms.

Boom!

It seemed as if the void had solidified, the glow of the Divine Sword trapped in his embrace, delayed for merely a moment. It was during this instant that the Demon God took a deep breath.

Whoosh—

The massive sword aura was swallowed into his belly. Although the fierce sword qi continually lacerated his thoracic and abdominal viscera, he ignored the pain and extracted spiritual power from it.

It appeared that even if the body of Demon King Yi was severely damaged, he did not care in the slightest.

He only focused on devouring everything that struck him!

Behind him, Wenren Yue, the Sect Master of the Heavenly King Sect on the Wang Jiang astrolabe, saw this and slowly pushed her finger seals.

Compared to the Demon God before her, she seemed more like a deity across the sky, pushing out one palm; a sphere of light immediately shot out from the Wang Jiang astrolabe, engulfing the Demon God’s body within it.

Thousands of radiant beams followed immediately!

Thousands of stars illuminated on the astrolabe, each star emitting a divine light, pouring endless spiritual power within moments.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, boom—

The vast divine light dazzled the eye, with no one being able to see clearly what was happening, the generals on the astrolabe spared no effort, pouring all of their available spiritual power into it.

They all knew the kind of enemy they were dealing with; if they did not obliterate him, he would soon absorb them completely, transforming their power into his own.

Venerable Wanfa stood to one side, a slight frown on his face: "This essence... seems not to be complete."

When the glow settled, the void returned to emptiness, without a trace left.

Dead?

The gathered crowd dared not relax their vigilance, as slaying a god could not be this easy, even for the most hallowed divinity eroded over thousands of years.

As expected, in the next moment, a slit of golden light appeared above the Wang Jiang astrolabe.

"Ah—"

A Generals Star of the Seventh Realm exclaimed, for the Demon God’s body had suddenly appeared before him. Even the bravest warrior could not maintain calmness in this moment facing the divine.

Whoosh—

With a gentle inhale from the Demon God, the two Seventh Realm Generals Stars instantly turned into streaks of light that entered his mouth, leaving not a trace behind, instantly becoming part of the Demon God’s power.

The Seventh Realm Wen Dao in other places was already formidable. However, on such a battlefield, they could only serve as cannon fodder.

However, the other factions did not panic.

The Wang Jiang astrolabe was the only place with weaker cultivators, and it was not surprising that the Demon God saw it as a breakthrough point. They had already prepared for such a situation.

Wenren Yue quickly changed her hand seals, a streak of radiant light scattering.

The Daoist Master Ziwei is the way of the Starry Sky monarch, commanding all spirits.

Legend has it that all people are shielded by their star of fate, yet most are unaware and never connect with their guardian star. Those who practice the Heavenly Star Oddity Technique essentially aim to harness the power of their guardian star.

The might of Daoist Master Ziwei is to assist others in awakening their guardian star, enabling Heavenly Star cultivators to merge with the star’s power, reaching far beyond their own cultivation level.

At that moment, the Seventh and Eighth Realm Heavenly Star cultivators around her head lit up with chain-like mists, connecting to the stars that appeared above.

Ziwei Star, awaken!

The two mighty beings that had just died also revealed red stars, the red light connecting to the shattered flesh of the Demon God’s body.

The Heavenly Star Oddity Curse Technique harnessed the destiny of Seventh Realm powers!

Even the Demon God felt a burning sensation as if the great Dao was temporarily sealed.

All present Heavenly Star cultivators, whether Seventh or Eighth Realm, including Wenren Yue herself, had already preemptively bound their destinies to that red star.

It represented the curse of the Sky-north Prison: after being slain, the slayer would be abandoned by the Dao.

Two Seventh Realm powers drawing upon their destinies might not be sufficient to completely seal the Demon God’s Dao. But if they could seal it for just a moment, that would be enough.

The Wang Jiang astrolabe contracted, gathering countless stars around the Demon God, representing the innumerable General Star Beads crafted by the Heavenly King Sect throughout the years. At that moment, they were all piled together.

Chu Liang had witnessed the power of one or two General Star Beads exploding; now, with an entire galaxy of them, the full force of the explosion was unfathomable. Fortunately, they were within the Universe Ring, for if this explosion occurred outside, it would have been enough to flatten everything from Sky-north Prison to Yu Capital City!

The Demon God’s devouring ability was briefly sealed, and even if it wasn’t, he wouldn’t possibly be able to digest such a violent explosion.

This was the burial ground prepared for him.

Today’s god-slaying was a certain kill setup!
