Controlling the Five Thunders and the Two Worlds

The King of Barbarian Mountain died, and his evil energy was absorbed by the Thunder Seed. However, the eight old Taoists dispersed the formation, and their joy dissipated considerably.

“The Demon Ancestor did not save him,” said Daoist Yixiang.

"Either the cost is too high, or it's not worth it," Master Yihe guessed.

"Is the Heavenly Gang Demon Formation the formation that the Demon Ancestor used to change the world and transform this realm into the Demon Realm?" Daoist Chengping asked.

"It should be so." Daoist Yansong nodded. "That is to say, at least thirty-six demons have opened up thirty-six demon realms."

"But we've already killed quite a few people." Daoist Zhihua counted on his fingers, "The Netherfire Cult Master, the Ink Dragon, Yun Feiang, Mohe Divine Lord, the Moon Devouring Cult Master, and the Divine Firmament Saint Master..."

"Shouldn't they have been running out of numbers long ago?" Master Zhihua asked.

Master Longqin shook his head, "How could they not have backup manpower?"

Master Yihong also affirmed, "If he didn't have enough manpower, he would never have just watched us kill this person."

"In other words, they can assemble the Heavenly Gang Demon Formation." Daoist Chengping finally reached the conclusion. "This person just said that the Demon Ancestor has changed his target?"

"They originally intended to use this demonic array to change the world," Master Chengping said, looking at everyone. "But this person claims that the Demon Ancestor plans to use this array to besiege the Great Luo Palace?"

Although the Demon Ancestor silenced the Barbarian King before he could finish speaking, everyone understood the meaning behind his words. He clearly harbored hatred towards the Demon Ancestor for not saving him, thus exposing the Demon Ancestor's intentions.

but……

"Is this true or false?" Daoist Shikong pondered. "Judging from the situation of the Lord of the Desire God Palace, the Demon Ancestor should be able to completely control them. Did this person say these words, or did the Demon Ancestor control this person to say them?"

The two scenarios are vastly different!
If it was said by the King of Barbarian Mountain with resentment, it means that the Demon Ancestor has already regarded the Great Luo Palace as his number one enemy and is preparing to focus all his efforts on attacking the Great Luo Palace, even prioritizing it over turning this world into a demon realm.

If that's the case, the Daluo Palace is indeed in great danger!
The number of the Heavenly Gang is astounding! There are at least thirty-six experts with cultivation levels of two to three thousand years. Not only is their raw strength far superior to that of the Great Luo Palace, but they also have thirty-six demonic domains providing demonic energy, enough to cover the area of ​​Cui Luo Mountain within a radius of ten thousand miles.

This is something that the Great Luo Palace cannot withstand; it will definitely need the help of the Myriad Spirits Dragon King, and perhaps even the assistance of the Heavenly Fox Ancestor.

But what if the Demon Ancestor deliberately said this through the mouth of the Savage Mountain King?
What he wanted was for the Great Luo Palace to be on guard, and then to recall all the old Taoists to the Great Luo Palace to prevent the Demon Ancestor from setting up the Heavenly Gang Demon Array to besiege the Great Luo Palace.

In this way, the Taoist priests of the Great Luo Palace will no longer be able to travel the world to subdue demons and monsters, giving him more time to calmly set up the Heavenly Gang Demon Formation and change the world.

The opponent was a demon ancestor who could rival the Heavenly Venerable of Universal Transformation. The magic he used that day was also incredibly powerful, truly a peerless magic capable of destroying the world and resetting the earth, water, wind, and fire.

If he were to turn this world into a demon realm, the consequences would indeed be unimaginable.

"How about we go back to the Great Luo Palace and make a collective contact with the higher-ups?" Master Zhihua asked tentatively. "Isn't once a year a bit too infrequent?"

Everyone laughed upon hearing this; the Celestial Master's Mansion truly loved to call upon others.

However, this matter still needs to be told to Gu Zhao, after all, this is the first demon they have found after the New Year, and they have also obtained such an important message.

……

Upon receiving the news, Gu Zhao was currently holding a welcoming ceremony for Xu Shuyao and Shao Youjun to join the Daluo Palace. The two women were originally from Shenxiao Mountain. They came to the Daluo Palace to participate in the New Year's Grand Ceremony, but actually to inquire about the Shenxiao Holy Lord. However, they unexpectedly encountered the Shenxiao Holy Lord's demonic possession and the five of them joining forces to besiege the Daluo Palace.

To them, the Holy Lord of Shenxiao was both a teacher and a father, who created Shenxiao Mountain as a paradise on earth. The people in the mountain were all gentle and kind-hearted, and they simply could not believe that the Holy Lord of Shenxiao would fall into demonic possession.

Then they saw that the Divine Firmament Saint Lord had not only fallen into demonic possession, but also completely disregarded them, launching a full-scale attack on the Great Luo Palace, ultimately dying and becoming a laughingstock for the world.

The two women finally gave up, but they did not blame the Divine Firmament Saint Lord. They only deeply hated the Great Sun Profound Light Heaven-Opening Demon Ancestor who had lured the Divine Firmament Saint Lord into demonic possession.

However, after the death of the Divine Firmament Holy Lord, Divine Firmament Mountain was in turmoil, and Wen Youhe could only barely keep it afloat. Let alone seeking revenge against the Demon Ancestor, they couldn't even find an ordinary demonic cultivator.

At the urging of Ye Ruyan and Miao Yunji, Xu Shuyao and Shao Youyun decided to join the Daluo Palace, because they believed that they could confront those demons there and avenge the Divine Firmament Saint Lord.

At the same time, the Great Luo Palace will also be strengthened, with the arrival of two more experts: the Pleiades Rooster and the Moon Crow, two of the twenty-eight guardian star officials.

"The Heavenly Gang Demon Formation?"

Gu Zhao taught the two women the methods of the Great Luo Palace, and instructed Ye Ruyan and Miao Yunji to guide them in switching to Taoist cultivation techniques and integrating them into the system of the Twenty-Eight Guardian Star Officials. Only then did he have time to discuss with the others.

"Thirty-six experts, thirty-six demonic dens, how come there are more and more!" Gu Zhao raised his hand to his forehead, but he was also shocked.

They have always relied on formations to fight enemies, which allows them to unleash the full potential of everyone. However, this Demon Ancestor is clearly no less powerful than the gods and immortals of the Dao Realm, and the formation he has set up must be extremely strong.

"But the good news is that these thirty-six experts should be the Demon Ancestor's last resort. Once they are broken, even if he comes out in person, he probably won't pose much of a threat."

"Not necessarily. I now have serious doubts about how the experts of this world ten thousand years ago managed to severely injure and put him to sleep. This demon is someone who can fight against the thirty-six generals of the Thunder Department."

We've seen masters with millennia of cultivation, like the Dragon King of Ten Thousand Spirits and the Celestial Fox Ancestor. Although their cultivation is profound and their magical power is deep, the intent and might of their methods are far inferior to this demon's.

If this demon were in its prime, it would surely reign supreme over this realm, and would never have been so severely injured and fallen into a deep slumber.

"Hahaha, have you forgotten what that Demon Ancestor said that day? He said that even if Puhua Tianzun launched a sneak attack, he couldn't kill him and even knocked his magic weapon away."

But is Lei Zu's attack easy to withstand? If he could knock the Five Thunder Tokens away, how could he be unscathed? I suspect his arrival in this realm was an accident; he didn't arrive at his peak, but rather was severely injured.

“That makes sense! That’s why even after ten thousand years, his injuries haven’t healed, which is why he’s manipulating the chess pieces instead of taking action himself.”

"But it should be soon."

"If he were to truly recover and make a move, even without the Heavenly Gang Demon Formation, no one in this world would be his match."

"Don't be surprised, the heavy responsibility of saving this world may really fall on our shoulders, but we won't rely on ourselves, but on our ancestors."

"In any case, destroying the Heavenly Gang Demon Formation will ultimately delay his birth. Since Lei Zu has already made his move, there will be follow-up actions."

Gu Zhao said to the old Taoist priests, "With the guardian star officials and other disciples guarding the Great Luo Palace, and since we can still communicate through divine sense, it won't take much time. You all continue your journey outside, subduing demons and monsters!" (End of this chapter)
