Chapter 1037 Returning the Tribulation of the Void
Danfeng and Qingniao were still aggrieved, but they also knew that Demon King Peng was right.
On the one hand, I basically don't have much advantage over the Eight Immortals. If I continue to struggle, I'm afraid I will be surrounded by the demon army.
After thinking about the gains and losses, the two phoenix birds resolutely abandoned Lingqing and the others, turned into a ray of fire and headed towards the four immortals Lu Dongbin who were surrounding and killing the Seven Demon Kings.
When Tieguai Li and others who were chasing him saw this, they quickly cast spells to stop him.
But with three versus six and a large formation, how could they be stopped?
That is to say, Jiao Demon King and others have already figured out the pros and cons and are not willing to worry about it for a while.
Otherwise, Gao Luo will chase the three immortals.
Leaving behind the three immortals, the Immortal Heavenly Phoenix went straight forward.
Behind them, Lingqing and his three men drove the Divine Dragon of Wind and Fire to catch up and picked up Tieguai Li Sanxian.
With the help of the three immortals, the wind, fire, dragon and god were even more powerful, speeding up to chase the immortal phoenix.
It's just that the Immortal Sky Phoenix itself is good at flying and escaping, and in addition, it takes one step first.
Before Ling Qing and others could catch up, they were already in front of the Four Immortals and One Demon.
Seeing this, Lu Dongbin let out a loud roar, turned his sword, and came to kill the immortal Phoenix.
Unexpectedly, Demon King Jiao and others did not dodge and rushed forward to meet the sword light.
The sword light cut a gash in his body, but as soon as the sword light passed by, immortal true flames rose up from the wound.
The flames passed by and the wounds disappeared.
On the contrary, Lu Dongbin saw the large formation approaching and had to duck to avoid it.
The immortal phoenix flapped its wings and clawed at He Xiangu and Han Xiangzi with its claws.
The two of them also quickly dodge.
Originally, the four immortals took their respective positions and surrounded the Seven Jue Demon King, leaving him with no way to escape.
At this time, the three immortals lost their position and naturally could not surround him.
The Seven Jue Demon King can achieve this, so he is certainly not a dull person.
On the contrary, after being suppressed for tens of thousands of years, he became much more cautious.
Seeing the opportunity, he didn't even move towards the Immortal Phoenix. He turned around and turned into a stream of demonic energy to escape from the encirclement.
He was even afraid that he would be targeted by both sides, so he split his body into three parts and fled in different directions.
Zhang Guolao relied on the speed of his donkey's feet to catch a streak of demonic energy, and stopped it with a beat of the fishing drum in his hand.
But before he could take action, the Immortal Phoenix fluttered its wings and flew towards him, with a claw on its head.
Zhang Guolao was so shocked that he quickly moved away.
The demonic energy also took this opportunity to fly away.
When the immortal phoenix saw this, he didn't linger much, fluttered his wings and left.
Lu Dongbin, He Xiangu, and Han Xiangzi were unable to catch up, but Zhang Guolao thought he could catch up in a short time.
But how could he be stopped by himself?
The four immortals gathered together, and Ling Qing and others also caught up.
Everyone gathered in the dragon head, looked at the empty wilderness ice field, and shook their heads.
Tieguai Li said: "Xian Tong, ask the location of the three marshals, let's continue chasing."
Dan Sheng listened to the order and went to question the three marshals, only to find out that at this time, demons were everywhere on Luzhou in Beiju.
Although the established encirclement was not broken, a lot of time was wasted in order to suppress the demons.
Marshal Fenglun Zhou even asked everyone not to pursue them too hastily, lest the six demons take the opportunity to escape before the encirclement is completely connected.
After learning the specific situation, Ling Qing and others also knew that hunting down the Demon King and others was no longer a top priority.
The top priority is to control these big demons that have been lured out by the tribulation before they cause actual harm.
Ling Qing thought to himself that in this situation, Emperor Dangmo should give some instructions.
Sure enough, before he asked Dansheng to ask, an edict from the post office was passed down.
Emperor Dangmo has already ordered the entire army, so that the thirty-six commanders of Dangmo don't have to worry about it.
Instead, they first returned to their respective duties, and set up a large demon array on the entire Beiju Luzhou. They first contained all the demons in them, and then slowly eliminated them.
As for Lingqing, the Eight Immortals and others, they will return to Wudang Mountain first to meet up with Emperor Dangmo.
Defeating Demons and Defending the Way, if you talk about it alone, is the best way to eradicate powerful demons and prevent them from doing evil in the future.
But for one force, such as the Demon Slayer Army, the most important thing is to eradicate the breeding ground for demons. This is the right thing to do.
Since ancient times, the great goddess Nuwa has quarried stones to mend the sky and cut down four giant turtles to hold up the heaven and the earth.
The body left behind by the giant turtle fell on Beiju Luzhou, making Beiju Luzhou a bitter and cold place with barren mountains and harsh waters.
After several catastrophic battles, some broken branches and leaves were unable to occupy the vast land, so they had no choice but to settle in this bitter and cold place.
Over time, Beiju Luzhou became the most evil place in the world.
The predecessor of the Dang Mo Emperor, Xuanwu, was born from the merits of Ju Ao.
Likewise, he also bears the cause and effect of this bad land.
For millions of years, he has practiced cultivation for several lifetimes, and in this lifetime he became a disciple of Master Xuandu.
After successful practice, I will adhere to the aspirations of heaven, earth and myself, and vow to cleanse the demonic atmosphere and restore the purity of Luzhou in Beiju.
Now in the Immortal Class, he is the Northern Xuantian Heavenly Martial Emperor and is in charge of Luzhou in the North.
Therefore, for the Demon Emperor, the main key to this demonic calamity is to suppress the Six Heavenly Demon King and the Four Demon Saints.
But more importantly, we must first suppress the demons that are constantly swarming on Luzhou in Beiju.
The smaller the basis of a thing's existence, no matter how powerful its head is, it will not become a climate.
Of course, that doesn't mean that he will let the Six Heavenly Demon Kings and the Four Demon Saints go.
He summoned Lingqing and the Eight Immortals to come here because of these ten-headed demons.
Above the Golden Palace of Wudang Mountain, Emperor Dangmo was sitting on the throne. Seeing everyone coming, he invited everyone to sit on both sides.
He opened his mouth and said, "Junior brothers, you have worked hard.
I have a feeling in my heart about this demonic tribulation, and this tribulation was the tribulation for me to attain enlightenment.”
Hearing what he said, Lingqing, Tieguai Li and others couldn't help but be overjoyed and congratulated: "Congratulations, senior brother, you can look forward to the great road."
Emperor Dangmo shook his head and said: "It is too early to say so now.
If this calamity passes, the future will be promising.
If you fail, although your whole life's practice will not be in vain, it will still be blocked by fog and you will be lost.
We can only seek for the next life."
Tieguai Li and others were not worried, they still smiled and said: "Senior brother, you are too modest.
With my senior brother’s merits over many lifetimes, this calamity will definitely be accomplished.”
However, Ling Qing was puzzled by what Emperor Dangmo said. Why could he only seek the next life if he could not survive this calamity?
If you don't understand, just ask. After hearing Lingqing's doubts, He Xiangu explained: "The five tribulations of the immortals are the tribulations in spiritual practice.
But it is not that easy to prove eternity.
Refining one's own world into heaven, combining heaven and Tao, and returning the spirit to Taixu, we call this returning to virtuality.
As far as the immortals are concerned, eternity can only be preserved if the gods return to the void and transform their spirits into the great avenues of the heavens.
Therefore, after passing through the five kalpas, you still have to go through the kalpa of returning to emptiness before you can truly realize the Daluo."
Lan Caihe continued: "This is still empty, it is the only way to achieve the great road.
And how can this one and only be so good?
As far as the heavens and worlds are concerned, the immortals alone have laid thousands upon thousands of them.
Even if I queue up, I don’t know how long or how long the queue will last.
Therefore, basically being able to sense an opportunity once in a lifetime is already pretty good.
If it is lost, I don’t know how long it will take to wait for it.
It would be better to reincarnate in another life and start over again."
Emperor Dangmo also said: "Speaking of queuing up is just a metaphor. The real opportunity definitely does not come from front to back.
Rather, it depends on one’s own cultivation and understanding of the great path.
But this kind of opportunity is the most harmful to the path. If you can't seize the opportunity to take a step further, you will have to retreat again and again.
Although his cultivation has not diminished, the road ahead is bleak and unclear.
