The Ancestor of All Demons

Chapter 677: Two Birds Standing Side by Side


No one expected that Noble Princess Consort You would suddenly attack the Emperor at this moment.

Neither the Emperor, the eunuchs, nor the embroidered guards were prepared at all. They didn't even have time to scream before the first Blood Transformation Divine Needle struck the Emperor's head.

At that instant, the young Emperor's body bristled with hair, and the Mo Long Immortal Sword within him was stimulated, automatically activating.

"Clang!" With the sound of sword ringing, Sword Qi protected him, and the needle that pierced the young Emperor's temple seemed to strike an Immortal Sword instead, not only failing to pierce the skin but being shredded into powder by the sword tip instead.

The second needle pierced his left chest, the heart area, puncturing the inner garment of the crane cloak, only to be shredded by the sword tip again.

The young Emperor turned around, the Immortal Sword guiding his heart, a dark light flew out from above his head, noticing Noble Princess Consort You retreating urgently and releasing the Five Demonic Flying Needles simultaneously.

Shi Feiyang had long suspected Noble Princess Consort You, insisting the young Emperor refine the Mo Long Sword to achieve Human Sword Unity, so that even if the Immortal Sword were destroyed, the person would remain unharmed.

Human Sword Unity, where the sword lives, the person lives, and if the sword dies, the person is harmed.

As long as the Immortal Sword's quality is good enough, a Sword Immortal is invincible.

Gongye Huang's Mo Long Immortal Sword could even sever Blood God Son Deng Yin's Blood God Avatar, preventing its restoration temporarily, clearly ranking it among the most elite Flying Swords in the world.

Top-quality Immortal Swords possess intelligence, capable of automatically protecting their master, and can even alert them to danger in advance.

The Mo Long Sword spontaneously activated, shredding two Blood Transformation Divine Needles, then flew out to strike Noble Princess Consort You.

The Five Demonic Divine Needles released by Noble Princess Consort You, each needle carrying demons, extremely malicious, originated from Jiangnan masters.

Even if the needle bodies were destroyed, the attached demons would fly out, continuing to invade the target's body, burrowing into their organs, absorbing heart spirit, kidney essence, liver soul, lung soul, and spleen intent. If their strength was lacking they'd be directly claimed by the caster, even if they could resist, the demons would linger in the organs, continually attacking, absorbing all Essence Blood until they became a zombie.

However, Gongye Huang had a significant connection with the Demon Cult. Though on a side path, he ultimately suppressed demons. His Mo Long Sword was even better at restraining the Demon Path than Purple Ying and Green Rope.

With a sound of sword ringing, a dark light shot forth, shredding the five flying needles. The transforming demons attached were immediately torn apart by the sword tip, wailing in unison, body and soul are destroyed.

The Divine Sword continued its momentum, and with a flash of dark light, it pierced through Noble Princess Consort You's throat!

When the Immortal Sword spun back to the young Emperor's side, everyone then reacted, the eunuchs shrieking loudly, "Protect the Emperor! Protect the Emperor!"

If the young Emperor died at this time, chaos would immediately ensue in the Capital.

Though Shi Feiyang was the State Preceptor, he never participated in the Great Ming's politics, nor the Yu Country. He merely set up the primary officials and conveyed his fundamental governance philosophy to them, allowing them to act according to it. As long as they didn't deviate from the main path, he didn't mind any minor incidents, letting Jin Xunu and others freely express themselves.

In the Ming Dynasty, he only established the Qingcheng and Snow Mountain system, ensuring there were Daoist Temples across the country with Taoists, focusing primarily on religious beliefs. The famous Immortal Market served as the central bank, managing currency affairs, leaving other matters untouched. If the Emperor passed away, the ministers might unite to create upheaval, at such a juncture, easily leading to fragmentation, especially with Eastern and Southeastern regions rising in response, linking, one misstep leading the entire country to crumble.

To handle such situations, one cannot merely resort to "slaughter," first because cultivators should not indiscriminately kill, second even if they could, continuous killing wouldn't solve the issue.

Regarding Noble Princess Consort You's problem, Shi Feiyang couldn't inform the young Emperor beforehand, otherwise, she'd definitely plead innocence, with ministers aiding her, confusing the young Emperor's mind since he initially liked her, potentially delaying or failing Sword Refining.

Shi Feiyang "witnessed" Mo Long Immortal Sword slay Noble Princess Consort You from Yuan Yang Palace, providing the young Emperor with caution and protection from the elite Immortal Sword, allowing him to withdraw his thoughts for now.

He presently intercepted Jiang Xuejun's Divine Thunder attacks with melody, while cooperating with the Immortals using the Heavenly Mirror to forcibly absorb the black tide from the sky, already capturing more than ten strands.

At that time, the Roc ferociously flapped its wings, gales attacking, and he utilized the newly refined Three Lights Divine Water, forming a glistening curtain of water, from the western Heaven Mountain to the East Sea, covering the sky and connecting the earth, resembling a thin soap bubble.

Yet this seemingly fragile soap-like water curtain effectively blocked the fierce gales.

Several thousand wind pillars carried large quantities of rocks, earth, trees, livestock, and river water, striking against this water curtain.

This Three Lights Divine Water is refined from the True Liquid condensed from the sunlight, moonlight, and starlight within the Heaven. Once released, it emits the radiance of the sun, moon, and stars. The sunlight is warm and intense, the moonlight is like silver, and the starlight twinkles. They ebb and flow, reflecting each other, firmly keeping the hurricane outside. No matter how the two Rocs flap their wings to strengthen the wind force, they cannot advance an inch southward!

Those two Rocs are not the Western Jialouluo. Besides being able to stir up hurricanes and split the seas, they have other divine powers.

They spew a massive amount of flames from their mouths, like heavenly fire waterfalls pouring out, infusing into the wind pillars, transforming them all into giant fiery tornadoes.

The wind aids the fire's strength, the fire borrows the power of the wind, becoming ever more fierce.

Many Immortals sent immortal communication from all over to Shi Feiyang, claiming, "These two Rocs are truly formidable. They are Primordial Species. Besides the one captured by the True Master of Bliss when young, no one has ever discovered them again. We don't know where Chi You found these two, but he's arriving soon. We must gather manpower and quickly slay them."

Shi Feiyang told them, "There's no need to worry, I have a way to subdue them."

After saying this, two strands of true qi, one cyan and one white, surged from his head and shot into the sky, disappearing from sight.

The next moment, atop each of the Rocs' heads appeared a lotus flower. The Rocs were truly enormous, so the two lotus flowers were also huge, pressing down upon their heads like mountains.

The Rocs felt something on their heads and immediately became furious. First, they shook their heads rapidly, trying to fling the objects away. Failing this, they flapped their wings to fly higher until they reached the edge of space. Then, they twisted and shook their heads even more, spewing a large amount of Wind and Fire Divine Thunder from their mouths, with thousands of Thunder Pearls swarming and exploding overhead.

At this time, two youths appeared above the Lotus Platforms, one in cyan clothes and the other in white clothes. They each made hand gestures, causing the thousand petals of the lotus flowers to move simultaneously, emitting layers of cyan and white light energy. The Wind and Fire Divine Thunder, with immense power, exploded upon this, causing the light to flicker and the petals to sway.

The two youths cast spells, causing nine streams of essence energy to fly out from each lotus pod. They pointed downwards, turning the essence energy back to seal the eyes, ears, nostrils, and mouths of the Rocs, with the remaining two streams wrapping around their necks, tightening quickly. In unison, they shouted, "Vile beasts! If you do not submit, you shall perish with your body and soul destroyed!"

With their senses sealed and bodies suffocating, the Rocs struggled desperately. From the Nine Heavens, they dove towards the ground, intending to crash into Kunlun Mountain with great force.

At this moment, a light shone from the sky, and each was bathed in a light beam.

It was Shi Feiyang using the Heavenly Treasure Mirror to shine light aiding the two avatars in subduing the demons. The beams descended from the Nine Heavens, enveloping the two Rocs, subsequently disturbing Yin and Yang and distorting space.

One Roc collided into Kunlun Mountain, the other into the Himalayas. But with a flash of the mirror light, they turned direction, falling down becoming up, and sped off back into space.

Soon, reaching space, the two avatars began to absorb star power, continuously strengthening the confinement on the Rocs' primordial spirits.

Their senses sealed, unable to see or hear, the Rocs flailed about like headless flies. Their primordial spirits were constantly suppressed, forcibly pushing them to submit and yield.

The two youths commanded them to shrink their bodies continually until they were only about a foot tall before flying back from space, landing directly in Yuan Yang Palace.

The two birds stood before Shi Feiyang's platform, speaking human language: "You used deceit and trickery, we do not submit!"

Shi Feiyang said, "You don't understand the Heavenly Number, the geography, or the changes in Heaven, nor do you know to avoid misfortune and seek blessings. Now caught by me, you still dare to be defiant? Do you not know that calculating the Heavenly Number is more important than mana?"

One bird spewed wind from its nostrils, the other fire, huffing and puffing, and continued saying, "We need to eat two hundred whales and a thousand eels daily. You've captured us, for what purpose? Chi You promised us we could each consume a city after entering the pass. You cannot fulfill that. If we're left starving, we certainly won't comply!"

"That's no problem. I will teach you to consume mist and drink dew, stealing the mysteries of Heaven and Earth. You might feel a bit hungry, but surely not famished."

The two birds were unwilling and still argued. Shi Feiyang summoned the Five Ding God Axe, cleaving it down on the steps before the two birds. He then leisurely looked at the distant sky and said, "I am about to refine the Yu Golden Talisman. Common Taoists use rooster blood to draw talismans. I shall try using Roc blood today; it should be even better."

The birds shivered with fear, closely observing the Five Ding God Axe, feeling its sharp edge, trembling with fear.

Under normal circumstances, they would not fear this axe. But now, with their primordial spirits suppressed, if a fight broke out, they could only be slaughtered.

The female bird quickly said, "We are willing to submit. We heard you are also a unique species; if humans forced us to submit, it would be impossible, but you are okay... Just treat us better in the future, no beating or scolding arbitrarily..."

Shi Feiyang nodded and allowed them to fly to the Human Emperor Banner behind his Dharma Platform. The two birds stood proudly, raising their heads high, their feathers a golden black, exuding majesty and dominance, except each had a Lotus Jade Crown on their head, small and exquisite, which added a touch of whimsy and delicate mischief.
