Honghuang: Fire De Huaguang, I am the Horse King of Human Education

He was terrified that the illusory image of Zhunti would not be able to hold on, and that he himself would be dealt with by Kunpeng.

"A coward who clings to life and fears death!"

Kunpeng's mockery was like a cold steel needle, piercing Lu Ya's ears.

"This is your demon emperor? You don't even have the courage to face me, your ancestor? You only dare to hide behind the sage and beg for mercy? If Emperor Jun knew this in the afterlife, he would probably die of anger again!"

Lu Ya's golden crow body stiffened abruptly, and the true fire of the sun fluctuated violently, revealing his inner shame and rage, but in the end he dared not take a step forward.

When the phantom of Zhunti heard Lu Ya's question, his eyes also showed an imperceptible coldness and dissatisfaction.

If it weren't for the fact that Lu Ya possessed the destiny of the demon race, which would be of great use to his Western Sect's future plans, he would have truly wanted to walk away and let Lu Ya fend for himself!
But now, he could only suppress his displeasure and concentrate all his attention on fighting against the terrifying Kunpeng that was poised to strike outside the soon-to-break barrier!
With a deafening roar that seemed to mark the beginning of time, the crystal barrier woven from Daoist runes finally reached its limit under the combined crushing force of the Demon Master's Palace and the demonic energy of countless deep-sea demons!

Countless cracks instantly spread to every inch of the barrier's surface, and then, like a glass lamp struck by a heavy hammer, it shattered with a deafening roar!
Billions of shards of glass, carrying violent energy turbulence, swept wildly in all directions!

Space was torn open with countless dark rifts, and chaotic air currents poured in, turning the sky above the far north sea into a devastating inferno!

"It's now!"

A fierce light flashed from Kunpeng's giant eyes!

He had waited far too long for this moment! Within the gigantic maw, the vortex of devouring energy, which had been poised to unleash its power, instantly expanded to its maximum!
The profound darkness, like the mouth of the void, exuded a terrifying suction force that obliterated true spirits and devoured all paths! The target was none other than the illusory figure of Zhunti exposed due to the shattering of the barrier!

He wanted to devour this saintly incarnation along with the power of the Seven Treasures Tree that it embodied!
Refine its essence and glimpse the mysteries of the Path of the Saint! Even if it cannot harm the Saint's true form, it is enough to make him pay a heavy price and make up for the regret of missing out on the Saint's position!

A terrifying devouring power instantly enveloped the phantom of Zhunti!
The figure formed from the light of the Seven Treasures Tree was pulled by the vortex, and its light fluctuated violently, as if it could be torn apart and annihilated at any moment!
However, faced with this desperate situation that could instantly annihilate even a Great Luo Golden Immortal, the phantom of Zhunti showed no sign of panic.

He maintained his compassionate demeanor, but the illusory Seven Treasures Tree in his hand suddenly burst forth with unprecedented brilliance!
"Amitabha."

A simple Buddhist chant rang out.

The violently fluctuating phantom, under the infusion of the Seven Treasures Tree's light, was not torn apart by the devouring vortex, but instead became solid and heavy at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Golden light swirled, and the sound of chanting filled the air!
In the blink of an eye, a golden statue, sixteen feet tall, cast entirely in gold, with a compassionate and solemn face and a golden wheel of immeasurable merit hanging behind its head, replaced the previous phantom and stood firmly in the storm of destruction!
It is indeed the sixteen-foot-tall golden body of the Sage Zhunti!
"not good!"

Kunpeng's heart sank!
An unprecedented sense of crisis, like a cold, venomous snake, instantly seized his soul!
He wanted to withdraw his devouring power and retreat hastily!

But, it's too late!

The sixteen-foot-tall golden statue slowly raised one arm.

That arm, with its five fingers spread out, seemed to move slowly, but it ignored the distance in space and the terrifying suction of the devouring vortex. In an instant, it pierced through layers of spatial barriers and appeared in front of the head of Kunpeng's enormous body!
Then, give it a gentle squeeze!
"Well--!!!"

Kunpeng let out a muffled roar of extreme pain!
He felt as if his neck, which was powerful enough to shatter stars, was being held firmly by an invisible, irresistible giant clamp of heaven and earth!

An overwhelming and terrifying power, containing the essence of the Great Dao, surged wildly into his body along the golden hand!

His proud power of law, capable of devouring stars, vanished instantly before this power, like ice and snow meeting the blazing sun!
The enormous vortex of devouring energy vanished silently, like a burst bubble!

"You beast! Surrender now!"

The sixteen-foot-tall golden body emitted a majestic Sanskrit chant, like the great Dao's imperial decree, which shook the Kunpeng's divine soul violently!
At the same time, Zhunti Jinshen flicked his other finger!
A string of 108 Bodhi seeds, radiating a pure Buddhist light and faintly emitting the sound of chanting, flew out of his hand and transformed into a golden light, shooting straight at the black sea cloud above Kunpeng's head, which was formed by the Northern Dark Water and the Devouring Law!
The prayer beads struck the auspicious clouds, and the Buddhist light clashed fiercely with the dark green devouring power, producing a piercing friction sound!
The auspicious cloud trembled violently, and countless hideous demonic head phantoms appeared on its surface, frantically tearing at the Buddhist light, temporarily blocking the rosary from falling!
"Stubborn!"

A cold glint flashed in Zhunti's golden eyes, and he gently tapped the illusory Seven Treasures Tree in his hand into the void!
"Innate Geng Metal! Dispel evil!"

Boom——!
High above the nine heavens, a blinding white light, pure to the extreme and containing the indestructible will to shatter all laws, tore through the sky and slammed down on the black sea clouds above the Kunpeng's head!

Click!

Like a hot knife slicing through butter!
The Black Sea Auspicious Cloud, formed by the Devouring Law and incredibly resilient, was instantly torn open with a huge gap by the bombardment of this innate Geng Metal Divine Lightning!

Taking advantage of the moment, the Buddhist prayer beads transformed into a golden light, passing through the gap in the auspicious clouds and hovering above the enormous head of the Kunpeng!

One hundred and eight Bodhi seeds simultaneously shone brightly! Countless tiny golden swastika characters floated down from the prayer beads, accompanied by grand and solemn chanting, heading towards the soul imprint of the Kunpeng!

A vast, compassionate, yet irresistible power of salvation instantly enveloped Kunpeng's enormous body!

"Roar--!!!"

The Kunpeng let out a painful roar that shattered the void!

The power of salvation was like a million red-hot steel needles, piercing deep into his soul!

We must forcibly eradicate his ferocious will, cleanse his demonic soul, and convert him into a protector of Buddhism!

This is a thousand times more painful than killing him!
"You want to convert the Ancestor?! Dream on!"

Kunpeng's eyes were bloodshot, and its huge body struggled and twisted wildly, trying to break free from the giant golden hand on its neck!
The remaining power of the Devouring Law within his body erupted recklessly, transforming into dark green chains that wrapped around his body, desperately resisting the all-pervasive light of salvation!

Two forces clashed fiercely within his body, causing his massive body to convulse violently, his scales to shatter, and golden blood to gush out!

"You wretched child! You don't know what's good for you!"

Anger surged in the eyes of the golden-bodied Zhunti!

He originally intended to convert this Kunpeng and make it his own, which would be a meritorious deed. Unexpectedly, this ferocious creature was untamable and dared to resist so stubbornly!

"If that's the case, you cannot be allowed to live!" Zhunti's golden body revealed his murderous intent!
He suddenly unleashed his magical power, and the sixteen-foot-tall golden body suddenly shone with boundless light!
He directly harnessed his golden body and took a step forward, ignoring space, and instantly sat on the undulating, massive back of the Kunpeng!

"Suppression!"

With a fierce shout, Zhunti pressed the illusory Seven Treasures Tree in his hand downwards!
Seven-colored light shot into the sky, instantly transforming into seven majestic phantom mountains, each radiating different elemental powers!

The first one, radiant with golden light, is formed from pure Geng metal energy, and its sharpness is unparalleled!

The second one, with its flowing silver light, was forged from the moon's radiance and froze everything!
The third one is made of crystal-clear glass, containing a pure crystal light that purifies evil spirits!
The fourth one is as red as fire, made of the true fire of the sun, and it burns the eight directions!
The fifth one, the giant clam shell, is pure white and contains the nectar of life, nourishing all things!

The sixth one, made of deep agate, embodies the rich soil of the earth and bears everything!
The seventh one, with its flowing crimson pearls, contains spatial laws and imprisons the void!

The seven sacred mountains correspond to the seven primordial powers contained within the Seven Treasures Tree!
They descended with an overwhelming will to suppress all heavens and obliterate all things, crashing heavily onto the massive body of the Kunpeng!
“Ouch——!!!”

Kunpeng let out an extremely shrill scream!
Seven divine mountains pressed down, like seven shackles of heaven and earth, firmly suppressing his body, which was capable of stirring up the four seas!

The terrifying suppressive force surged wildly into his limbs, bones, internal organs, and even the depths of his demonic soul!
The Devouring Law was forcibly suppressed, and the flow of demonic power instantly came to a standstill!

His enormous body could no longer be maintained. Under the terrifying pressure of the seven divine mountains, like a giant beast stripped of its disguise, he was forced to completely reveal his Kun fish body, which stretched for countless miles, from his half-human, half-fish form!
The entire far northern sea was in complete uproar!

Without the suppression of Kunpeng's power, the vast and boundless seawater was freed from its restraints and surged wildly like a maddened beast!

A massive tsunami surged into the sky, carrying billions of tons of ice, and crashed violently against the shattered heavens!
Countless deep-sea trenches collapsed, and underwater volcanoes erupted! The world was in a state of apocalypse!
The Zhou Tian Star Array, which was set up by Bai Ze and 100,000 demon soldiers, was instantly shattered by the raging tsunami and ice collapse in the face of this earth-shattering natural power!

Countless demon soldiers screamed as they were swept into the towering waves, their fate unknown!

"Zhunti—!!!"

The enormous Kun fish body of Kunpeng struggled frantically beneath the seven divine mountains, each twist triggering even more terrifying tsunamis and earthquakes!
His enormous maw emitted a roar that shattered the void, filled with endless resentment.

"You will kill me today!"
There will be retribution someday! The Western religion will perish!!!

"Stubborn to the end!"
He deserves to be punished by Heaven!

The golden statue of Zhunti sat upright on the back of the Kunpeng, like a Buddha suppressing demons, his face cold and devoid of any compassion.

He formed hand seals and chanted incantations. The seven illusory divine mountains that suppressed Kunpeng shone brightly and began to slowly rotate. Each rotation carried a terrifying power that could obliterate the soul and crush the true spirit, crashing heavily onto Kunpeng's massive body!
Each impact caused Kunpeng to let out an even more shrill scream, and the golden demon blood stained the entire Arctic Ocean!
In the distance, Lu Ya, who was originally horrified by the destruction of the Zhou Tian Star Array and the heavy casualties of the demon soldiers, suddenly burst into wild joy when he saw the Kunpeng, which was being suppressed by the seven divine mountains and could only struggle and wail in vain!
The fear vanished, replaced by the relief of surviving a catastrophe and boundless awe of the saint's power!
"The Sage is mighty! The Sage's supernatural powers are boundless!"

Lu Ya, transformed into a thousand-foot-tall golden crow, suddenly flapped its wings and soared into the sky, emitting a shrill cry that was so excited it was almost deformed!
He shouted sternly at the remaining demon soldiers behind him who had been lucky enough to escape the tsunami and were still in shock.

"What are you all standing there for?! Join me in congratulating the Sage! The Sage is mighty!"

"The Saint... the Saint is mighty!"

"The sage possesses boundless supernatural powers!"

The remaining tens of thousands of demon soldiers seemed to awaken from a dream, struggling to kneel down on the towering waves and broken ice floes, using all their strength to utter cries that were uneven but filled with awe and fear!

The sound waves were particularly jarring amidst the raging tsunami and the mournful cries of the Kunpeng.

Seated atop the back of the Kunpeng, Zhunti, who was exerting all his strength to extinguish the life force of the divine mountain, heard the roar of the mountains and the tsunami of the "majestic saint".

On that cold and imposing face, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly upwards, and a fleeting look of undisguised smugness flashed deep in his eyes.

Each time the seven phantom mountains rotated and crashed, they carried a terrifying power that could obliterate the soul and crush the true spirit!
The enormous Kun fish body of Kunpeng, stretching for thousands of miles, struggled and writhed wildly under the suppression of the divine mountain. Each struggle triggered a world-destroying tsunami and earthquake, and the golden demon blood, like a river bursting its banks, stained the entire Arctic Ocean red!
"Roar--!!!"

The Kunpeng's miserable howl shattered the void, filled with endless pain and despair!

He could clearly feel that his origin was being ruthlessly eroded by those seven completely different yet complementary primal forces!
My soul felt as if it were being repeatedly pierced and burned by millions of red-hot steel needles!
The power of the Sage's Great Dao is far beyond his ability to resist! If this continues, he will surely be annihilated, body and soul, and completely vanish into the world in no time!

The shadow of death, like a cold tide, instantly overwhelmed Kunpeng's soul!
Eternal pride and ferocity appear so pale and powerless before absolute power! The instinct for survival overrides everything!
"Your Majesty Haotian—!!!"

The Kunpeng suddenly raised its head and let out a mournful roar that pierced through the raging tsunami and the roar of the sacred mountain, carrying an unprecedented humility and plea.

"Save me! Save me! Kunpeng is willing to submit to the Heavenly Court! To serve Your Majesty for eternity! Save me—!!!"

This roar, like a final swan song, resounded throughout the chaotic world!
"Ok?"

Sitting upright on the back of the Kunpeng, Zhunti's golden body, which was exerting all its power to extinguish the life force of the divine mountain, suddenly frowned!
He never expected that this ferocious and unyielding Kunpeng would, at the last moment, beg for help from Haotian, the ruler of the Heavenly Court! And even offered to submit to the Heavenly Court as a price!

"Evil creature! Don't even think about it!"

A cold light flashed in the eyes of the golden-bodied Zhunti!

He knew full well that the Heavenly Emperor Haotian and the Queen Mother of the West were personally appointed by the Dao Ancestor Hongjun and held the power of the Heavenly Dao! If Haotian were to intervene, things would definitely change today!
The illusory Seven Treasures Tree in his hand suddenly burst forth with dazzling light, the seven divine mountains spun at an accelerated speed, and the suppressive power instantly reached its peak!

He wanted to eliminate Kunpeng completely before Haotian arrived!

However, just as the seven divine mountains were about to deliver a fatal blow to Kunpeng—

A vast, majestic, and supreme pressure, seemingly representing the order of heaven and earth and the will of the heavens, descended without warning upon the sky above the far north sea! (End of this chapter)
