– In the High-Level Artifact Master Communication Group –
Li Haoran: [How come the group is much so quieter today?]
Jun Yangzi, [Most of the people over here are still online, but how come the artifact masters in Half City are so quiet today? @Duan Yue @Artifact Master Yanhua Spiritual Master @Shen Fengzi...]
Jun Yangzi used the symbol ‘@’ to try to contact them, but no one responded.
“Weird...”
“Maybe they are busy making artifacts.”
“They were making artifacts yesterday, and some of them were still in the group chat.”
– Meanwhile in the Heaven-Conforming Tower of the Haoran Faction –
This was the legendary place where a demon was suppressed.
In the past hundreds of years, the Heaven-Conforming Tower had been quiet and solid without any disturbances.
Seeing that they were alone, the elite disciples guarding the tower from the outside were either bored after standing for a long time or stretching their stiff bodies.
“Why are we guard this damn tower?” one of the disciples complained, “In my opinion, that demon must have died long ago after being suppressed under the Heaven-Conforming Tower for more than 1,000 years.”
“Yeah. It’s been so many years, and nothing happened. Maybe it died long ago.”
While these two disciples were complaining, red clouds suddenly appeared in the sky above the Heaven-Conforming Tower!
“What’s that?!” They looked up at the sky in horror; the blue sky had suddenly turned dark red.
The thick clouds covered the sky and hovered at a low altitude, and the previously clear sky instantly turned as dark as night!
“What... what’s that?!” Horrified, a disciple pointed at the sky when a huge horrifying face came out of the center of the thick clouds.
This face opened its mouth and sucked everything on the ground into the air, including the white treasure tower behind them; it looked like a hurricane had descended.
Beneath the treasure tower was a piece of an extremely big skeleton!
Then, the whole mountain cracked open with rocks and soil flying everywhere, revealing a huge, vicious skeleton with two horns and a wicked ghost-like face!
“No! The demon suppressed under the Heaven-Conforming Tower is coming out!”
Sensing the upheaval, many cultivators of the Haoran Faction including elders and elite cultivators flew up into the sky. In the blink of an eye, dozens of elite cultivators above the True Lake Realm and a few elders at the Divine Ocean Realm rushed to the site.
“Build the Major Heavenly Array!” a white-robed elder yelled!
The huge skeleton opened its mouth and roared!
The roar shook the sky and the earth. The cultivators flying toward it felt as if they were hit by a huge hammer on the chest and spat out blood with pale faces!
“You tiny fireflies dare to compete with the light from the bright moon?!”
Boom!
The skeleton lifted a claw bone and pressed down with its sharp boney fingertip. “A bunch of ants!”
The thick clouds seemed so near to the ground that the sky looked like it was crashing down!
A horrifying pressure crashed down viciously like Tai Mountain pressing down on an egg. The low-level cultivators were instantly exploded into clouds of bloody mist, and even the high-level elders at the Divine Ocean Realm had their meridians and bones broken while blood oozed out from their eyes, noses, ears, and mouth.
“You’re so weak!”
“Saint Lord, your superpower is unrivaled in the whole mortal world. How can we mortals be a match for you?” That old and genial Daoist with white hair fluttering in the wind stood in the sky with a fawning smile.
– Meanwhile in the distant Yimu Daoist Palace, which was at the very north of the Morning Star Sea Realm –
The mountain under a remote Daoist temple far from the main Yimu Daoist Palace buildings suddenly shook!
Then, the whole mountain let out booming noises as if someone were beating on a huge drum!
The ground cracked open as if something suppressed underground was being summoned out from beneath the mountain!
...
“How come the shop is so quiet today?” Mr. Fang looked around and found that at least one-third of the customers were missing.
Then, he heard people screaming in alarm outside the shop while pointing at the sky.
“Look over there!”
It was dark in the distant sky. In the darkness, it seemed like a horrifying demonic shadow was disturbing the winds and clouds, and its horrifying presence sent chills down people’s spines even from the distance!
“What’s that damn thing?” Mr. Fang frowned and felt that things weren’t that simple.
“From the looks of it, I’m afraid that a demon has come out.” Standing beside him, Mo Tianxing looked gloomy. “More than 1,000 years ago, a demonic catastrophe almost destroyed the cultivation world of the Morning Star Sea Realm. After 1,000 years, another catastrophe seems to be coming our way at a great speed!”
“So powerful?” Mr. Fang glanced at the cultivators around him in surprise. “What demon is it? Is it this powerful?”
“Our Mo Family lost all of our masters in that demonic catastrophe.” Mo Tianxing’s face dimmed at this memory. “Otherwise, if the Mo Family was still at its prime, I wouldn’t have been living like a refugee, hiding in Half City.”
...
– Meanwhile in the Nanhua Faction –
The whole Nanhua Faction was engulfed by dark clouds.
“Crazy! They are all crazy! My senior brother is crazy! He tried to kill me! So is my senior sister and my master! They are all mad!” A disciple of the Nanhua Faction hid in his room, shivering all over. “If the situation continues, I’ll go mad too!”
“No! They will probably kill me as well” Terror filled his face.
– In the Haoran Faction –
Faced with the horrifying demonic power, the cultivators could do nothing but flee. The slower ones were caught by red clouds, and they screamed in horror. Soon, other disciples were hunted by their senior brothers, elders, and masters who had been turned into fierce ghosts!
“Where is the Faction Master? Where is he?!” an elder roared in fury.
“He seemed to have gone to watch a movie with some elders,” another elder answered with a terrified expression.
“Watch?! Movie?!” the white-haired elder cussed immediately on the spot.
“All the disciples, retreat out of the mountain!”
“Retreat! Now! All of you, retreat!”
...
“After the destruction of the Nanhua Faction and the Haoran Faction, it’s now the Yimu Daoist Palace’s turn!” In the dark clouds, a huge demonic face seemed to be roaring in fury, “Anyone who obeys me will be rewarded; anyone who works against me will die!”
“Yes, Saint Lord!” Several cultivators of the Feng Family lowered their heads and said respectfully, “As for the rewards that the Saint Lord promised us...”
A blood-colored crystal suddenly appeared in the sky. “This contains a trace of my understanding of the laws of the world. You can take it and try to understand the power inside.”
The genial, celestial-looking old man was elated. “Thank you, Saint Lord!”
Meanwhile, many beams of light shot into the Nanhua Faction like shooting stars!
Wang Lingxiao’s eyes turned red as he looked at the ruins before him. “Nanhua Faction! How come my Nanhua Faction has turned into this state?!”
“Demon!” The Xichi Spiritual Master said in horror, “It looks exactly the same as the demon emergence described in the documents of our faction!”
Soon, they saw the damaged black mountain and found that the entire Forbidden Place had been razed to the ground!
“The Haoran Faction Master sent the message saying that Haoran Faction was ruined. That demon is on its way to Yimu Daoist Palace!”
“Tianxu Spiritual Master sent the message saying that the suppressed demon body has gotten out and probably has merged with that demon soul!”
Wang Lingxiao’s face paled. “It means that we’ll face a demon in its prime, just like in the demonic catastrophe 1,000 years ago?!”
In the blink of an eye, the emergence of the demon became a horrifying catastrophe, sweeping all over the world!
