The Ancestor of All Demons

Chapter 687: The Three Cosmic Oddities


In the Shushan World, the Cosmic Six Strange were appraised by Li Jingxu. They are the Kuzhu Elder, Lu Yu, Xin Ruyu, Shi Pi Elder, Huo Ling Divine Monarch, and Cang Xu Elder, with Cang Xu Elder ranked last.

In his original state, Cang Xu Elder was no match for Shi Pi Elder, and there was even quite a gap between them.

However, after experiencing a major catastrophe with the West Pole Sect, Cang Xu Elder is now completely different. Although Shi Pi Elder has made significant progress in the Great Asura Technique in the past sixty years and had breakthroughs because of Shi Feiyang's appearance, preventing him from entering the Buddhist path with Master Zun Sheng, he still cannot compare to Cang Xu Elder.

Currently, Cang Xu Elder is not in a good mental state and starts off with a big move, revealing twelve blood-colored demon lights behind him. Seated within these demon lights are the Fiery Fire Ancestor, Red-haired Ancestor, Shang Heyang, Lie Baduo, Poison Dragon Venerable, Green Robe Ancestor, and six elders of the West Pole Sect.

Among them, the Fiery Fire Ancestor and Red-haired Ancestor are in the state of Lifebound Demons, and they are the most formidable, appearing as complete Primordial Spirits.

Next is the Five Poison Heavenly King, Lie Baduo. His Lifebound Primordial Spirit merged with Cang Xu Elder through sacrifice, making part of his avatar manifest in the demon light, making his connection second only to the previous two.

Following are Shang Heyang, the Green Robe Ancestor, and the six elders of the West Pole Sect, who are avatars formed by portions of their Primordial Spirits.

They differ somewhat; Shang Heyang's original avatar was destroyed during a duel at West Pole Mountain, and afterward, both were forcibly taken as grandsons by Cang Xu Elder.

The Green Robe Ancestor continually whispered slander to weaken Shang Heyang, claiming the little red thief was not loyal to his grandfather, showing disrespect and unfilial behavior, professing eternal devotion at his grandfather's knee while secretly thinking of running away, forcing Shang Heyang to expend significant Primordial Qi to create another avatar, which entered Cang Xu Elder's demon light.

The Primordial Spirits of the six elders of the West Pole Sect were all collected by Shi Feiyang into the Heavenly Mirror. Zhongdonar was directly absorbed, while the other five were blasted into fragments, their residual spirits consumed by the Nine Child Mother Sky Demon. Later, Shi Feiyang made the Demon God regurgitate them, all sealed within the Heavenly Mirror.

These six are still not resigned, viewing Cang Xu Elder as their last hope, praying night and day for him to rescue them.

Lastly is Poison Dragon Venerable, who has already converted to Shi Feiyang and changed beliefs within the Heavenly Secret Demon God Lamp, severing emotional ties with Cang Xu Elder.

Thus, the Poison Dragon Venerable in Cang Xu Elder's demon light is just a faint silhouette that will naturally dissipate in a few years.

Cang Xu Elder expanded the demon light, and the twelve Demon Sovereigns, alongside himself, launched an attack on Shi Pi Elder.

Corpse Transformation Divine Light, Du Tian Demon Fire, Nine Earth Divine Slaughter, Seven Emotions Demon Light, Hundred Poison Divine Thunder... a chaotic onslaught attacked simultaneously.

Shi Pi Elder was also shocked, knowing the situation was dire. Quickly wielding his horsetail whisk, he unleashed a myriad of Asura Blood Flames, from which erupted numerous Golden Needles, Golden Swords, and Golden Sabers... clashing with the enemies. Yet, he could only withstand it for a few seconds before being forced to retreat explosively.

At this moment, Shi Pi Elder formed a hand seal with his left hand and released the Five Mountains Divine Peaks, each towering several tens of zhang in front of him, spinning at high speed, spewing Asura Blood Flames, looking like five giant flaming meteors from a distance.

Simultaneously, he shouted loudly, swung his horsetail whisk to release twelve Divine Demons, and activated the Blood Lotus Calyx, blooming with a thousand petals, its demonic light exploding in intensity, wrapping him in layers while empowering the Demon Fire, Demons, and those Five Mountains Divine Peaks with mana.

Under the boost of multiple treasures, he was barely able to defend against Cang Xu Elder's assault.

Everyone had once experienced the power of Cang Xu Elder on West Pole Mountain, especially the immortals of the Kunlun Sect.

Mr. Zhong and others watched the duel from afar, all exclaiming in awe, "That Shi Pi Elder can withstand Cang Xu the Elder's attack surely proves he's worthy as the Asura Sect Master."

They genuinely praised because individually, they wouldn't be able to defeat Cang Xu Elder. Even if they laid down Thunder City and trapped him inside, it likely wouldn't work. Cang Xu Elder's Divine Skills and transformations are too mighty; he would escape before Thunder City was completed and slay them all...

But these words fell unfavorably on Shi Pi Elder's ears, as this ancient demon truly was formidable, hearing their conversation clearly from nearly five thousand li away.

The Asura Path is inherently strong and quick to anger. Despite Shi Pi Elder's temper being quite restrained over the years, he still couldn't shake his competitive spirit.

He also knew he couldn't defeat Cang Xu Elder, yet he flung his horsetail whisk and declared, "How can the Asura Sect be underestimated! Fire Spirit Brother, why haven't you come to lend a hand already!"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than someone transmitted their voice from Yunnan over thousands of miles, "At the Master's command, how dare this humble brother not comply!"

The opponent's flying escape speed was faster than the spread of sound. Before the words were finished, the person had already appeared above Elder Shi Pi.

It was none other than Fire Spirit God, another expert from the Asura Sect!

A thousand years ago, Fire Spirit God had a grudge with Li Jingxu, and they agreed on a time and place to engage in a duel. At that time, Deng Yin and Chang Mei had just entered the Dao in this life.

He had one wife and two concubines, all of whom possessed strong mana, reputed to be no less than his own. One of the concubines once strongly advised him to turn from evil to good and mediated the conflict between him and Li Jingxu, eventually making them friends. Later, enlightened by a high monk from the Buddhist sect, she ascended to the Nirvana. The other concubine was rather evil. When Deng Yin and Shen Wugou had just entered the Dao and were out gathering merit, she trapped them with magic, intending to take their lives. Later, with the help of Li Jingxu, she was killed by Deng Yin and his wife.

Originally, he had plans to ascend early, and Li Jingxu had even agreed to send them off when the time came.

But he had too many enemies back then, and ascension for the Demon Cult was inherently difficult. Moreover, several Demon Cult leaders came forth to trouble him. From other sects, people like Xin Ruyu also opposed him, and he was ultimately unsuccessful, his wife also tragically perishing.

Since then, he was completely disheartened. Having already disbanded his disciples, and now losing his wife and concubines too, he was left alone. He then used magic to sink the Demon Palace underground and moved a mountain over it, vowing not to emerge until the world faced catastrophic events.

This time, due to the major calamity, Elder Shi Pi sought him out.

Since returning from Stone Tiger Mountain last time, Elder Shi Pi had calculated that his future lay with Shi Feiyang, and he had long intended to establish a connection.

The Nine Child Mother Sky Demon delivered a letter, which greatly pleased Elder Shi Pi. But knowing it wasn't easy, he made careful calculations before eventually bringing out the Fire Spirit God.

Fire Spirit God was a middle-aged man with a three-foot-long beard, having an ethereal presence. He wore a golden crown, a red robe draped over him, a golden belt around his waist, and held a golden jade horsetail whisk. With a slight flick, it emitted myriad streams of Asura Blood Flame, where Elder Shi Pi's Blood Flame contained countless Golden Sabers and Swords, his was filled with billions of silver flowers instead.

Each silver flower was exceptionally pure and came in various forms—paeonies, peonies, hibiscuses, roses, apricot blossoms, peach blossoms, pear blossoms, and so on. Each flower radiated a pure silver light, akin to moonlight, within which appeared enchanting naked women.

Each woman was graceful and strikingly beautiful, akin to fairy elves dancing elegantly among the flowers.

These were the Yin Demons he had refined over a millennium. Should an enemy see them and feel even a slight attraction, their gaze would involuntarily linger on vulnerable areas, and their Primordial Spirit would immediately be absorbed into the fireworks from afar.

He then pointed at the golden crown atop his head. The crown flared with immense flames, within which three figures sat, facing forward and to the sides. At his gesture, the golden crown shot out immeasurable flames which quickly expanded into a sea of fire spanning a thousand miles. As he waved his horsetail whisk, the flames surged toward Elder Cang Xu, spawning billions of gold-glowing Thunder Pearls that would explode upon contact with Elder Cang Xu's attack, covering the sky over the Qinling and even the Guanzhong Plain to the north in fiery blazes. The dense thunder rumbled incessantly as if shattering the heavens!

With such a powerful ally, Elder Shi Pi immediately stabilized his position, then reversed the stance, maneuvering the Five Mountains Divine Peaks and Twelve Divine Demons for a counterattack.

Elder Cang Xu, infuriated by such an overwhelming presence, struck sparks and roared, unleashing the Heavenly Demon Star River from his hands, also commanding the twelve streams of Demon Light behind him to strike wantonly. He ordered the twelve Divine Demons within the Demon Light to strike with all their might, without any mistakes.

Within his Demon Light, the Fiery Fire Ancestor and Red-haired Ancestor were physically bound there, having their lives completely tied to Elder Cang Xu, unable to escape. If Elder Cang Xu were eliminated, they too would turn to dust and ashes, making these two the most willing to contribute.

The Fiery Fire Ancestor spewed thirty-six masses of blood-flesh-like Earth Fire that coalesced into thirty-six great banners in the air, which then radiated thirty-six streams of Fiery Fire Demon Flames.

This setup was originally the Huashan Sect's Supreme Heaven Fierce Fire Formation, which he modified and cast using Demon Path techniques. The fires it spewed were condensed from Heavenly Evil Fire drawn from other worlds, far more formidable than ordinary Demon Fire, especially when forming an array, complementing one another with even greater power.

In addition, he also wielded the Fiery Fire Thunder Sound Sword, booming with rolling thunder, pierced through layers of Asura Blood Flame, heading straight for the Fire Spirit God.

Seeing the Fire Spirit God also wielding fire, he was very defiant, wanting to challenge the Fire Spirit God to see whose fire was mightier!

The Red-haired Ancestor, on the other hand, wielded the Heavenly Demon Blood Transformation Divine Saber, viciously striking at the Five Mountains Divine Peaks of Elder Shi Pi.

Nearby, the West Pole Sect Elder also struck, casting magic light to form a giant hand, attempting to move the Five Mountains Divine Peaks.

Behind Elder Cang Xu, the twelve Divine Demons within the Demon Light all struck at once, while his disciples Shang Heyang and the Green Robe Ancestor hesitated. Feeling angry, Elder Cang Xu nearly stomped in frustration and shouted, "You two turtle grandsons! Join me in repelling the enemy now!"

Shang Heyang and the Green Robe Ancestor exchanged glances, realizing Elder Cang Xu was angry. They dared not delay. Shang Heyang tossed out numerous skulls that emitted fire and smoke, flying forward to bite Elder Shi Pi, while the Green Robe Ancestor shrieked bizarrely, forming a Green Light giant hand in the air, grasping a Five Mountains Divine Peak to take it away.
