Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin: I Set Taboos in the Heavens

After Fang Qing slapped the demon of the seventh level of legendary transformation to death, he quickly refined and absorbed that energy, and his early stage of the seventh level of legendary transformation was completely stabilized, and he even faintly moved towards the middle stage.

He gained a deeper and more unique understanding of the power of ghosts and gods.

Without delay, Fang Qing turned his gaze to the deeper area where the demonic energy had almost solidified into a tangible form.

There, several terrifying auras, like dormant volcanoes, lurked, far surpassing the ghostly transformation into an old demon from before.

"The Legendary Eight Transformations... Does the Stellar Transformation exist?"

Fang Qing's body transformed into a five-colored streak of light once again, and he charged headlong towards the direction where those terrifying auras were located.

There were still scattered demons blocking the way, but Fang Qing's strength was now far greater than before.

He didn't even need to unleash his full domain; with a mere thought, a region of five elements force fields and void ripples naturally formed within a hundred feet around him. Demons in the Life-Taking Realm who entered were instantly shredded, and even low-level legendary beings needed to exert great effort to barely approach, yet they could no longer pose a substantial threat to him.

Soon, he stumbled into an even stranger area.

Looking up, one could vaguely see several huge, dim star-like phantoms emitting an ominous red light in the void.

These stars are not real celestial bodies, but are formed from extremely pure, concentrated, and hellish stellar energy.

Thick, dragon-like streaks, dark red in color, emanated a cold, deathly aura of starlight, hanging down from those illusory stars, giving the demonic energy of this place a sense of destruction, like stars falling.

Even more terrifying is that in the places where the evil energy of these stars is most concentrated, a strange flame, dark gold in color and extremely hot, seemingly capable of burning souls and laws, suddenly ignites.

This is a more terrifying existence than ordinary hellfire, containing the evil of star destruction and the primal evil of hell.

"Stellar Transformation... It connects with the power of the void stars, draws on the evil energy of the stars to temper the body and refine the soul. Every move can carry the great power of the stars, shifting stars and changing constellations, with boundless power. This old demon has already been able to combine the evil energy of the stars with the demonic flames of hell to create the 'Heavenly Demon Flame,' which is indeed extraordinary."

Fang Qing looked into the distance. Cultivation has no limit. His cultivation had advanced to the seventh level of the Legendary Realm, while there was a cultivator at the eighth level of the Legendary Realm not far away.

A dark red demonic cloud, over a thousand feet in diameter, slowly rotated. At the core of the cloud sat a hunched old demon woman draped in a tattered star robe. She held a white bone star staff, her face was lined with deep wrinkles, her eyes burned with dark golden demonic flames, and her aura was as vast as the starry sea, yet as evil as the abyss.

The dark golden demonic flames surrounding her were more than ten times more powerful than the demonic flames that had transformed from a ghost to a demon! It was as if a single wisp of flame could burn through the void and incinerate the soul of a low-level legendary cultivator.

"Hehehe... Another foolhardy live prey has arrived, accompanied by a little girl from the Heavenly Academy... Hmm? Legendary Seventh Transformation? This little brat who just broke through dares to trespass upon this old woman's place?"

The old demon woman opened her burning eyes, her voice sharp and piercing, filled with endless mockery and greed.

She was too lazy to even get up, so she simply raised her bone staff and pointed it at Fang Qing from afar.

"Star Arrow of Destruction, Heavenly Demon Soul Burning!"

shhhhh--

Countless terrifying arrows, composed of condensed star energy and with their arrowheads burning with dark golden demonic flames, tore through the void like a rain of pear blossoms, shooting towards Fang Qing from all directions.

Each arrow locked onto his soul aura, moving at incredible speed, and possessing the terrifying triple effects of physical penetration, malevolent energy erosion, and soul burning.

Even an ordinary legendary seventh transformation would be riddled with holes and annihilated instantly by this attack.

Fang Qing neither dodged nor avoided the rain of arrows, but charged forward once again.

The profound meaning of the "Divine Elephant Suppressing Hell Force" was running wildly within his body, and a faint phantom of a divine elephant, towering to the heavens and standing on the ground, was faintly visible within his body.

At the same time, he clenched his right fist, and on the tip of his fist, the five elements of true energy rotated and compressed, and the yin and yang energies wrapped around it. The newly comprehended purification of evil energy turned into a sharp edge, and it also incorporated a trace of the concept of "the body of the sovereign".

"Divine Elephant Suppresses Prison, Five Elements Break Stars!"

He unleashed a punch without any fancy techniques, only a pure, domineering, and terrifying power that seemed capable of suppressing the heavens and shattering stars.

Wherever the fist passed, the countless star arrows and demonic flames shooting from the sky melted and collapsed, like snow in spring meeting the scorching sun.

The fist force condensed into a hazy gray, containing the starlight of the Five Elements' destruction within and the purifying flames of Yin and Yang on the outside, and with an overwhelming and unstoppable momentum, it slammed fiercely towards that evil old woman!
"what?!"

The old woman's mockery instantly turned into horror.

She sensed that the punch contained not only powerful energy, but also a supreme, sacred, and suppressive will that made her very soul tremble, as if she had encountered her nemesis.

In her haste, she let out a sharp cry and slammed the bone staff in her hand heavily in front of her.

The dark red demonic clouds around him contracted violently, transforming into a giant shield engraved with star and demon patterns. At the same time, he spat out a mouthful of primordial demonic blood at any cost, merging it into the shield and making it shine brightly.

"Starry Sky Demon Defense!"

boom--! ! ! !

The torrent of fist energy slammed solidly into the giant star shield.

Amidst the deafening roar, the seemingly invincible giant shield only lasted for a moment before emitting a cracking sound as it succumbed to the strain, and countless cracks appeared on its surface.

Then, with a loud bang, it exploded completely.

The remaining force of the punch pierced through the aftershocks of the explosion and slammed hard into the old demon woman's withered body.

"what--!"

A bloodcurdling scream, piercing to the extreme, rang out.

The old demon was blasted away like a rag doll, her tattered star-patterned robe instantly turning to ashes, leaving a huge fist-shaped hole in her withered body, its edges burning with purifying flames.

Dark golden demonic flames erupted wildly from her seven orifices, burning herself in the process. The light in her eyes, which were burning with demonic flames, dimmed rapidly, filled with unbelievable despair and fear.

"impossible……"

She uttered a few words hoarsely, and her body began to disintegrate and turn to ashes inch by inch from the fist hole.

The legendary old demon of the Eight Transformations of the Star Transformation was directly killed by Fang Qing's punch, which combined the supreme power of the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Force, the destruction of the Five Elements, the purification of Yin and Yang, and the suppression of the Holy Spirit.

This is not over yet!

Fang Qing moved like lightning. After blasting the old demon woman to death, he didn't linger and went to find two other demon nests that were emitting the aura of the Stellar Transformation.

He used the same method, employing an absolute advantage in strength and attribute counters, and actually killed the three legendary eight-transformation old demons one after another! It was like cutting melons and vegetables!

Such a formidable record left the young lady, who had been following behind and almost relegated to the role of a spectator, completely stunned and numb. Watching Fang Qing fight valiantly and with unstoppable momentum, she felt her worldview being constantly redefined.

Fang Qing advanced triumphantly, slaying powerful enemies, and finally broke through the numerous demonic blockades, arriving at the core area of ​​the seventh seal.

The sight before one's eyes is enough to shock anyone.

Countless chains, as thick as mountains, engraved with countless ancient and sacred runes, and radiating a dim yet tenacious golden light, extended from the void, intertwining, coiling, and wrapping layer upon layer, forming a three-dimensional sealing network covering an area of ​​countless miles.

At the nodes between the chains are inlaid sealing crystals of varying sizes, each emitting a faint glow like a star, which together maintain the stability of the seal.

At the very center of the sealed network, where countless chains connect, floats a gigantic pearl with a diameter exceeding ten thousand feet, its interior seemingly containing countless tiny points of light that flow slowly like a galaxy.

This is the Dimensional Bead!
It is a part of the original will of this plane and the power left behind after the sacrifice of the ancient saints. Combined with the sealing array, it is the core array eye and the manifestation of the plane's will. It is both the source of the sealing power and the key to monitoring the plane's state and resisting the invasion of external demons.

However, at this moment, the surface of this dimensional bead, which should have been crystal clear and radiant, was covered with dense, spiderweb-like black spots and cracks.

A stream of filthy, evil, dark demonic energy, carrying the distinctive scent of hellish monsoons, was seeping in and corroding the cracks like maggots clinging to bones.

The light of the dimensional bead thus became extremely dim and flickering, like a candle in the wind, which could be extinguished at any moment.

Inside the bead, the light spots that were originally flowing in an orderly fashion like a galaxy became sluggish and chaotic, and some were even stained with a faint black color.

It is foreseeable that the day this dimensional bead completely loses its luster and is thoroughly tainted by demonic energy will be the day when these layers of chains, the entire sealing system, and even the crystal wall system protecting the bountiful continent completely collapse.

At that time, the demons of hell will have no more obstacles and will completely submerge the fertile continent like a tidal wave, turning this once vibrant land into the ruins and vassals of hell.

At this moment, around the dimensional bead, swarms of demons, like locusts, were still frantically attacking and gnawing at the chains and sealing crystals, trying to accelerate its collapse.

Further away, several terrifying demonic thoughts of the legendary Nine Transformations Undying Transformation locked onto the Plane Bead like venomous snakes, patiently waiting for the opportunity to strike one last time.

Fang Qing's arrival immediately attracted the demon's attention.

But he ignored the attacking demons and kept his eyes fixed on the dimensional bead that was in imminent danger.

A power flowed through his body—the Great Blessing, the Great Wish, the Great Order, the Great Commanding Book, and the Great Hymn.

Not bad, Fang Qing has cheated again.

When countless rays of "holy," "orderly," and "supreme" light were poured into that dim dimensional bead, something miraculous happened.

That faint ray of platinum holy light, like a spring of sweet water poured into a parched desert, like the first ray of dawn piercing through the endless night, quickly merged with the ancient holy will within the dimensional bead that had not yet been completely extinguished.

"Om-!"

The dimensional bead emitted a deep and majestic hum.

Inside, those sluggish, chaotic, and even blackened spots of light, as if infused with new vitality and hope, began to flow faster and radiate an unprecedentedly brilliant light.

Wherever the light passed, the black demonic spots and cracks that clung to the bone, like ice and snow exposed to the scorching sun, began to fade and heal rapidly, making a "sizzling" sound.

"The distant celestial realm has finally not forgotten the fallen primordial continent, and has sent down light. This is the purest holy light of the celestial realm."

"Indeed, hope from the heavens, such a pure aura! Why is the glory of the supreme lord appearing here?"

"This radiance is so faint, the energy so small, yet its essence is so powerful. Could it be that the gods of heaven sent their sovereign son to this plane?"

"That's not right. In the eyes of the gods in the heavens, our primordial continent is nothing more than a speck of dust in countless planes. Why would we receive the favor of the gods?"

Countless fragments of will, aged and weary yet filled with endless joy and relief, awakened and emerged from the depths of the dimensional bead.

Those were the ancient saints and heroes who sacrificed themselves to protect this plane and resist the invasion of hell, merging their spirits and will into the origin of the plane.

They have been battered by the hellish monsoon and corrupted by demonic energy for tens of thousands of years. They are on the verge of complete succumbing, their will dissipating, and ultimately transforming into evil demonic spirits. The entire Plane Pearl will also be completely corrupted into the Pearl of Hell.

But at this moment, the wisp of platinum holy light that Fang Qing injected was like a horn to awaken a sleeping lion, like holy water to purify all filth, completely dispelling the fog of despair in their hearts and rekindling their long-dimmed flame of protection.

Wake up! Protect our home!

"You heretics and evil spirits, get out!"

"With our immortal will, we will bless this plane and purify the evil!"

The will of all the saints was fully revived, boiling, and condensed, and the dimensional bead seemed to come alive.

It no longer passively endures the erosion, but actively radiates an increasingly intense and pure holy light, carrying the indomitable fighting spirit of the saints and the vitality of the plane's origin.

This holy light is the most deadly poison and divine punishment for demons.

"what--!"

A legendary Nine Transformations Undying Demon, who had been lurking nearby and was attempting to launch a fatal attack while the Plane Bead was weakened, was struck by the sudden burst of holy light from the plane as soon as it revealed itself.

Its supposedly "immortal" and powerful demonic body was like a candle thrown into a furnace, instantly burning and melting violently. Even its scream lasted only half a sound before it completely turned into a wisp of smoke and ashes.

Legendary Nine Transformations, Instant Kill!

"The will of this plane is rejecting us!"

"Holy light! The will of the ancient saints has been reawakened!"

"Run! Get out of here!"

The even larger, hundreds of billions of demons, faced with this fully revived and surging power of the plane's will and holy light, were like ants seeing their natural enemy, letting out terrified howls.

They could no longer care about attacking the seal. In a panic, they scattered like birds and beasts, frantically breaking through the void and fleeing deeper into the Hell Monsoon, away from the Plane Bead.

Those lower-level demons who were too slow or unable to break through the void were swept away by the holy light, evaporating, annihilating, and turning into nothingness in large swaths, like dewdrops in the sunlight.

The core area of ​​the seal, which was originally filled with demonic energy and teeming with demons, was completely cleared out in a short period of time.

All that remained were the chains and sealing crystals that still shimmered with a dim golden light, but seemed a little more stable than before, and the enormous dimensional bead that shone with brilliant light, its interior filled with a dazzling galaxy, as if it had been reborn.

Fang Qing, without a doubt, became a hero—a hero of the entire plane! (End of Chapter)
