Shi Feiyang had many Demon Path Secret Manuals in his possession, which contained formidable magic; however, he had not cultivated many of them, especially those that were utterly inhumane and against the heavens.

He merely grasped the fundamental principles of the Demon Cult Techniques; when necessary, he would select or even create spells as the situation required.

For instance, the technique he used today—transforming the essence energy of the Four Wudang Women into Heavenly Illusions and then seducing the opposing Demon—was a combination of various Demon Path Techniques, some of which he custom-created for the occasion.

Speaking through the Secret Demon Divine Spell, his voice reverberated directly in every world within the lamp fires, striking at the souls of all the Demons.

He informed these Demons that not only would the sisters reward them, but they would also help them withstand the Golden Wheel of the Old Demon Yideng.

Yet, Old Demon Yideng used his Golden Wheel to continuously punish them, slicing and smashing their limbs, enslaving them, and treating them as slaves.

The sisters could not bear to see them suffer a single injury; however, Old Demon Yideng insisted on inflicting harm, creating pain, increasing their hostility, and then making them kill and harm people for him.

Even though the enemy was very powerful, and even Old Demon Yideng himself hid behind others, afraid to come out and fight, he insisted on pushing them forward, utterly indifferent to their life or death, torturing them with the Golden Wheel at the slightest inconvenience...

These words, delivered directly into the hearts of over a hundred thousand Demons through the Demon Curse, stirred their rage, inciting them to hate Old Demon Yideng.

Demons inherently lacked loyalty and affection toward their masters; all they had was oppression, restraint, and torture...

They obeyed Old Demon Yideng only because he was powerful enough and had used Mana and Magical Treasures to bind their Primordial Spirits, forcing them to follow orders.

In fact, each one of them harbored deep-seated hatred for Old Demon Yideng; he and his disciples were their killers, tormenting their souls even after death, subjecting them to an eternity in Hell.

When Shi Feiyang's Demon Curse touched and ignited their spirits, the Demons began to snarl, howl, and wail—not aimed at Shi Feiyang but turning their heads towards the lampwick, where they could sense the presence of the One Light Master.

Seeing him openly instigate rebellion among his subordinates, One Light Master was infuriated and prepared to cast a spell, but Shi Feiyang bit his middle finger, flicking droplets of blood in succession, employing the Demon Cult's method of Devouring Demons with one's body, akin to offering a blood sacrifice.

His blood was no ordinary blood—it was True Dragon Blood—and with his practice of Righteous Path Daoist Techniques, and his body full of Pure Yang True Qi, it was precisely the nourishment the Demons coveted.

With such a blood offering, all the Demons went mad; each one of them only received the tiniest line of blood, but even this trace was more exquisite and nourishing than anything they'd received before.

They roared and charged towards the lampwick, which represented their spiritual connection with the One Light Master; through it, they carried out spiritual resistance and attacks against him.

If before, these Demons had merely gone on strike, now they were revolting!

Since the Demons had no physical bodies and each possessed the ability to ascend and transform, many methods were ineffective against them.

For example, stabbing them with swords or cutting with knives was almost useless, as ordinary blades could barely touch them; only special weapons worked.

They could also be struck by Heavenly Thunder or burned by Demon Fire, but as they were already Demons, these methods were barely a concern; even if some did minor damage, they would not be subdued.

One Light Master's most effective method to discipline them was indeed the Golden Wheel.

He continuously expelled True Qi; he too bit the tip of his tongue to spray his own Essence Blood.

However, he did not use his blood for a sacrifice, a deed that binds one to significant karma; he would not resort to that unless it was a last resort. His spraying of Essence Blood was to enhance the power of his spells to suppress the Demons to the greatest extent.

The Demons saw that one was spraying Essence Blood as an offering to them, with the lovely Immortal Sisters actively rewarding and protecting them.

And yet this detestable old monk used his Essence Blood to confront and punish them.

There is no fear in not recognizing goods; the fear lies in comparing goods.

The counterattack of the Demons grew even more violent. Over a hundred thousand Demons screamed, cursed, wailed, and wept at the lampwick, combining their efforts to attack the One Light Master's Primordial Spirit through it.

Millions of Demon thoughts flooded like a tide into One Light Master's mind; high Dao-Level Demons directly transformed into Illusions, roaming and darting within his Mud Ball Palace, using their Demon Claws to tear at his Primordial Spirit.

One Light Master had already cultivated his Primordial Spirit into his Lifebound Divine Demon; in layman's terms, he had turned himself into a Great Demon. Now facing the siege of numerous Demons, his Lifebound Divine Demon roared furiously in all directions.

It was as if an elderly Monkey King faced a rebellion and assault from a troop of monkeys; though his presence was still commanding, he could no longer suppress the horde.

Enraged to the extreme by Shi Feiyang, his wrath was fully aroused. With the assault from the innumerable Demons, he could clearly sense every lampwick gateway being broken through, receiving an increasingly clear stream of negative messages from the Demons attacking him.

Internal demons and external demons colluded together to launch an attack, and the Old Demon was eager to suppress the horde of demons and then hurriedly exterminate Shi Feiyang and his people.

Various reasons combined to make him feel that the spiritual energy within his body was beginning to spiral out of control.

He possessed immense mana, but the higher the mana, the harder it became to control, and once it started to lose control, the consequences would be even greater.

"Not good!" He felt he was on the brink of deviation, but his heart was startled.

Everyone's individual condition is different, their temperament is different, and the cultivation techniques they practice are also different. The situations after deviation are also varied.

Elder Kuzhu and Deng Bagu would become rigid upon deviation because of their reclusive nature, hating contact with others, and insisting on retreating from the world to cultivate purity and restraint.

The more they cultivated, the closer they became to plants, soil, and rocks, which would result in turning into rigid zombies, hearts ashen as the dead!

One Light Master was different from them. He was several hundred years old, yet there were many Demon Consorts and Demon Concubines serving him within the Demon Palace.

This old monk was quite the schemer, maintaining a solemn divine statue in the eyes of outside followers, but in reality, he could not wait to reward himself every day. The Great Joyful Bliss Method he cultivated contained methods on how to find Demon Consorts, how to develop and train them, and ultimately enjoy a century of bliss with himself.

So when he deviated, it wasn't his body that became rigid but rather a surge of lust that erupted from between his heart and kidneys, igniting his heart and fueling his kidneys, an eruption beyond control.

He was experienced and knowledgeable. Sensing something was amiss, he immediately awoke and started casting forcefully to suppress it. By then, a Demon had already entered his Mud Ball Palace via the connection of divine energy resonance through the lampwick, conjuring many illusions to inflict him with hallucinations of sight, sound, and touch.

The old monk was like someone with cataracts who could not see clearly, limbs unresponsive as if suffering from post-stroke symptoms, and with a slurred speech.

His physical body was deviating, and his Primordial Spirit also began to see numerous illusions. The quickest solution was to let the Primordial Spirit escape the body.

Once the Primordial Spirit emerged, free from the body's burden, it only needed to shatter the illusions to be okay.

Of course, without the protection of a physical body, the Primordial Spirit would be vulnerable, and many spells could no longer be casted.

And without the direction of the Primordial Spirit, his body would continue to be chaotically impacted by essence energy, eventually burning from the inside out and perishing in self-immolation.

He didn't want to take that step until it was absolutely necessary, still hoping to protect his physical body with his Primordial Spirit, direct the chaotic impacts of the essence energy back to the origin, and forcibly suppress the tendency to deviate.

Shi Feiyang said to Wudang's Four Women, "That Old Demon has been fought by me to the brink of deviation; he's now struggling internally. I'm going to enter the Underground Palace to find him. Stay here, do not wander around, and take no illusions seriously, no matter what you encounter."

These four girls had firm Dao hearts, but their mana was not high, and the Flying Sword Magical Treasures they carried had nearly all been destroyed. If they encountered danger, they had no means to protect themselves.

Shi Feiyang left the Nine Heavens Yuan Yang Ruler with Shi Yuzhu, briefly passing on the method of use, instructing her to use it cautiously to protect herself and her fellow sisters.

After giving clear instructions, he released the Three Yangs One Qi Sword, flying into the main hall.

Here a Golden Buddha was worshipped, along with two Demon Kings as protectors.

The Golden Buddha, cast from pure gold, came to life the moment he entered, raising a right hand and declaring, "I will cast you into Avici Hell, where you will suffer endless torment for tens of thousands of years without relief!"

The two Demon King statues also came to life, one emitting Demon Light, the other spewing Demon Fire, following the giant Buddha Palm as they attacked together.

Shi Feiyang threw out the Five Elements Divine Fire Pearl, transforming into a five-colored lightning bolt; a crackling thunderclap shook the entire hall with a rumble.

The pure gold Buddha Palm was blasted to smithereens, the Five-Colored Flames surged wildly, engulfing the Golden Buddha and the two Demon King statues in intense flames.

Then, Shi Feiyang united three swords into one, forming a rainbow dozens of feet long that swept across and cleaved the three statues in half.

The pure Gold Buddha was originally for One Light Master's Primordial Spirit to inhabit, and those two demon statues were for his trained Divine Demons.

These in the Daoli Heavenly Palace were of the highest standard, consecrated with innumerable efforts and also fortified with the blessings of countless believers' worship and willpower. Had One Light Master been intact, with his Divine Demons inhabiting them, Shi Feiyang would have had no chance of destroying them so effortlessly.

But One Light Master was currently in the Underground Demon Palace, struggling with his own Demon, unable to care for this place, hence Shi Feiyang could swiftly sever them at the waist and then commanded the sword light to fly upward, grinding them into numerous fragments.

After passing the great hall, he sought the entrance to the Underground Palace, which had been sealed by One Light Master's spellcasting, requiring some effort to locate and break the seal.

At that moment, he received a distress signal, an extremely urgent one at that.
