"The 'Demon God Scripture' itself is akin to a Magical Treasure, refined by the formidable Demon Path Great Techniques of its original master.
The content within can teach one to cultivate their Primordial Spirit into a Lifebound Divine Demon, which means transforming oneself into a Heavenly Demon, representing the true essence of the Demon Path.
Yet, whenever someone refines their Lifebound Divine Demon and wreaks havoc, they are absorbed into the scripture, providing the previous master with a substitute to preside over the Demon Scripture, thus, allowing him to be freed and ascend to the Otherworldly Demon Realm.
However, the Demon Scripture itself has a predestined catastrophe. The Demon inside is the practitioner from the previous generation, who sensed that decades later, the scripture would be destroyed by someone. If the scripture were to be destroyed, his soul would disintegrate, so he seized control of the Dark Spiritual Pearl, placing a Prohibition on its Primordial Spirit, forcing it to work for him.
The Dark Spiritual Pearl was originally of the Evil Demon line and had surmised that if the Demon Scripture had a Demon God presiding, then by cultivating it, one would become the Devil's Child and Grandchild, forever enslaved. Initially, it dared not cultivate it.
But as its own calamity loomed, not cultivating the Demon Scripture meant imminent destruction of both body and soul. Thus, it had no choice but to stubbornly return to cultivate, becoming a servant of the Demon Scripture.
The Divine Demon within the scripture instructed it to find two more with strong mana to cultivate with it, to first practice the techniques of the scripture and refine a Lifebound Divine Demon, followed by refining the three Secret Demon Divine Shuttles together.
The Heavenly Stars Secret Demon Seven Absolute Black Shuttle, recognized as Shushan World's first nuclear weapon-level Magical Treasure, could instantly turn a radius of ten thousand li into a death zone upon activation, formidable to both immortals and mortals alike.
In the original text, members of the Emei Sect and Immortal City joined forces to attack it. Dark Spiritual Pearl could not overcome them and eventually released this super weapon. Nonetheless, Immortal City's duo had the Buddhist Seven Treasures Golden Banner for protection, and the others wielded top-tier Universal Treasures from the Mysterious Sect such as the Nine Suspicions Tripod, emerging unscathed. In contrast, almost all of their own people were blasted to death, with the entire Forty-Seven Islands and surrounding isles shattered to pieces and sunk into the ocean!
The Forty-Seven Islands, sitting just outside of the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain, hold a strategic position that cannot allow the likes of Dark Spiritual Pearl and others to act recklessly.
Shi Feiyang, standing atop Jinting Mountain, gazed northward, deducing the related matters. It was quite difficult to figure out the foundations due to the Demon God casting obscuring spells, so he had come here hoping to uncover more clues.
At this moment, the Loose Cultivators who snuck into the Forty-Seven Islands last year were stealthily swimming across the sea, hoping to slip by unnoticed.
Shi Feiyang said to the General guarding Jinting Pass, "You take your men and bring them to me."
This General of Jinting Pass, known as Zhuang Xiaoyun, was originally a Four-winged Divine Eagle with a thousand years of Dao Level. Once, this eagle stealthily consumed an Immortal's Spirit Pills, greatly increasing its mana, transforming to possess a human body with an eagle head and a back with four wings. Later, it even cultivated the 'Sun Refining Great Technique,' making it increasingly formidable, turning the entire eagle's body more majestic and dominant, increasing its height to eighteen feet, with wings spanning over five zhang when stretched wide.
When Shi Feiyang first wanted to station someone here, he picked six Great Demons from archival records—all possessing eight or nine thousand years of cultivation, except this one, who only had over a thousand. He called them before him for personal assessment, ultimately choosing Zhuang Xiaoyun as the Commander of Jinting Pass, commanding him to lead three thousand subordinates to station here and guard this crucial route in and out of the area.
Upon receiving Shi Feiyang's command, Zhuang Xiaoyun invigorated his spirit, flapping his wings to the sky, calling out to over a thousand subordinates, who emerged from the mountain-sea caverns and ascended into the sky, following him northwestward.
The people from the Forty-Seven Islands, camouflaging themselves beneath large patches of seaweed and duckweed, were silently swimming when suddenly, they saw hundreds of strange creatures flying over from Jinting Mountain. They were odd and bizarre, including a giant octopus with hundreds of arms, a sea urchin fully covered in shining golden spines, a huge ribbon fish tens of feet long and gleaming with silver, and dragon-serpent-like monsters with wings, all shrouded in dark clouds and mist, rushing towards them like shooting stars.
The leader was a monster with a human body and an eagle head, with four wings, approaching with incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, they had almost reached them, blocking their way.
"The Dragon Emperor orders you to come!" Zhuang Xiaoyun floated above the sea, his tone inhospitable, ready to take action at the utterance of even half a word of refusal.
These people were exceedingly frightened, not daring to show their heads above the water. Huddling together, they debated, "The Dragon Emperor has sent this bird demon to capture us!"
"Does the Dragon Emperor want to kill us?"
The master of White Whale Island, Gui Wu, said, "He probably won't. If the Dragon Emperor wanted to kill us, he'd have done so already. With his dignity, he'd hardly come here personally to wait for us; just a few of his subordinates would suffice. Since he's come here, there must be a task he wants to entrust to us."
As they conversed, someone suddenly began to tremble in fright, pointing to something behind them for others to see.
Turning around, they saw the blackness of the vast ocean give rise to many massive strange fishes, with the smallest heads capable of swallowing a large ship!
Countless mammoth fishes converged, each with eyes larger than their bodies, each continually gulping water and gathering energy, readying their assault.
Although the Loose Cultivators had varying levels of mana, with quite a few having ascended to Independent Immortals and possessing a number of Magical Treasures they could usually brag about, in this situation, they all lost their nerve. Just one round of Dan Qi from those giant fishes could shatter an iceberg. With even more formidable Demons blocking the way above, if a real battle ensued, not many of them would survive.
"Make your decision quickly! Are you coming with us or not?" Zhuang Xiaoyun vibrated his wings, creating a fierce wind. Exhaling a breath of Dan Qi into the wind and pressing his hands downwards, the sea surface immediately depressed, revealing a giant pit, tens of miles in diameter and over twenty zhang deep.
Knowing they would be overpowered, Gui Wu and the others swiftly took to Sword Control and flew up, "We are willing to meet the Dragon Emperor."
Zhuang Xiaoyun sneered, "Then hurry along! Dawdle and make the Emperor wait, and I will peel your skins one by one!"
The group dared not argue, begrudgingly soaring to Jinting Mountain and upon seeing Shi Feiyang, they bowed and said, "We've met fellow Daoist Dragon Emperor."
"Kneel and speak!" Zhuang Xiaoyun commanded harshly."
"Kneel and speak!" the Great Demons around him roared in unison.
These Loose Cultivators, having no other choice, looked at one another before finally kneeling on the steps below.
"How dare you address His Majesty as a Daoist friend? If you speak like that again, I'll break off every single one of your teeth!"
The Loose Cultivators' momentum was stolen, and they trembled with fear, "We, the humble Daoists, pay our respects to the Dragon Emperor!"
Gui Wu, being the most astute, added, "May our Emperor live for ten thousand years! Ten thousand years! Forever and ever!"
Zhuang Xiaoyun then scolded him, "On this Outer Heaven Divine Mountain, any Tom, Dick or Harry can live for several hundred or thousand years, and it's not unusual for Great Demons to live nearly ten thousand years! The Emperor's life spans with the heavens, and you wish him ten thousand years; could it be that you're cursing him to die early? You really are tired of living!"
As he rudely scolded, he was about to kill Gui Wu to establish his authority through intimidation.
Gui Wu quickly corrected himself, "I wish His Majesty a life that spans with the heavens! A life that spans with the heavens!"
"His Majesty's life already spans with the heavens, he doesn't need your wishes..."
Zhuang Xiaoyun drew a sparkling and translucent treasure sword, about to strike Gui Wu down. Gui Wu hesitated, wondering whether or not to stir everyone to rebel and make a desperate stand.
"Forget it!" Shi Feiyang spoke from the courtyard to stop Zhuang Xiaoyun, and asked them, "You all are from the Forty-Seven Islands, what are your names? From which island do you come?"
The people quickly introduced themselves one by one, speaking smoothly and fluently, hoping to leave a good impression on the Dragon Emperor.
"Gui Wu." Shi Feiyang, hearing this name, had him lift up his face for a better look, and then he quietly calculated in his mind.
He knew in his previous life this man was named Zhen Hai, who together with Tie San's disciple, robbed the Purple Cloud Palace and boiled the sea with fire. The people from Purple Cloud Palace sought revenge and pursued him, along with another enemy, the tiger-headed monk, chased him all the way to his lair, killing both him and his wife.
In this life, he was reincarnated in a family named Gui by the seaside in Central Earth, taken in by the True Master Fei Long from Little Antarctic, and brought overseas for cultivation. After True Master Fei Long chose Soldier Disintegration and reincarnation, he moved to White Whale Island to cultivate in solitude.
Shi Feiyang asked him, "Have you found the reincarnated soul of your wife?"
Gui Wu's heart skipped a beat, not expecting the Dragon Emperor to ask this first thing; knowing the Dragon Emperor had vast Divine Skills and was aware of his past, he didn't dare to hide anything and pointed to a young woman in white within the crowd, "She has reincarnated as the daughter of the White Rhombic Reef Master, now named Bai Mingyu." Then he signaled his wife to hurry over and pay respects to the Dragon Emperor.
The Bai Mingyu quickly knelt and crawled forward, "This humble girl Bai Mingyu, pays respects to Your Majesty."
"Have you also found your son from your previous life?"
Gui Wu was astounded again, "My honorable master, True Master Fei Long, told me before his passing that they now cultivate somewhere in the South Sea; we do not know exactly where, only that they will eventually join the Orthodox Sect."
Shi Feiyang asked, "Would you like to see them again?"
Both husband and wife had awakened memories from their past lives. Bai Mingyu, eager for her child, hastily said, "Yes! We haven't seen each other for decades, and we have already visited our old home from our past life, which has long been abandoned. Now we have no idea where they might be, but if Your Majesty knows, we beg you to enlighten us; we would be eternally grateful!"
"Your sons, Zhen Gen and Zhen Dui, are now on Funiu Island in the Coral Nest in the South Sea, and have become Independent Immortals. Because in your past life you were born from a union of a seal and a human, they have a special constitution and cannot grow up, thus they are known as the 'South Sea Twin Youth' and have already made some repute."
Bai Mingyu and Gui Wu, upon hearing this, were thrilled and decided that if they survived and left this place, they would seek out their sons.
Zhen Gen and Zhen Dui are to be among the Emei Sect's future 'Seven Dwarfs.' Since Shi Feiyang had become an enemy of the Emei Sect, he naturally made early calculations, "You go and bring them to Little Antarctic, you'll have a family reunion, and then I have another matter for you to attend to."
Gui Wu promptly replied, "Our family is deeply indebted to His Majesty's great kindness! Whatever His Majesty commands, our whole family will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
"You won't need to go through fire and water; you go…" The rest of the words were not heard by others, just seeing Shi Feiyang speak while Gui Wu listened intently, nodding continuously, his expression sometimes filled with worry, then shifting to joy, before kowtowing again, "Your humble servant will surely carry out this task well for His Majesty!"
Shi Feiyang casually tossed a Jade Box, "As for the rest of you, you're of no use; sneaking into the Bright Realm, intending to kill and set fires, disturbing my cultivation, your crimes are unforgivable, just kill them all."
Hearing this, Zhuang Xiaoyun and other demons were about to act, and the Loose Cultivators terrified turned pale as death, despairing and confused, one of them released a Flying Sword to attack Zhuang Xiaoyun, which Zhuang Xiaoyun caught with his hand, breaking it into many pieces, striding forward to seize that person, like picking up a chicken, lifting him up. That person still wanted to cast spells, but Zhuang Xiaoyun had already grabbed his scapula, tall and with large hands, one hand grabbing the shoulder blade, one hand grabbing the head, and with a forceful pull, immediately pulled the head off!
Blood sprayed wildly from the headless cavity, as Zhuang Xiaoyun threw both the head and the body down the mountain, caught by the demons below, tearing it apart with their mouths, swallowing it within moments.
The rest were terrified beyond measure, desperately releasing their Flying Sword Magical Treasures to protect themselves and crying out loud to the Dragon Emperor for mercy, "We can be useful too! Please give the order, Your Majesty, and we will do whatever it takes!"
