Chapter 375 The Battle Power of the Heavenly Courts’ Civil Official Gone?

　　The mountain-protecting array formation is gone just like that?

　　They had been in the Primordial World for so many years and were considered experienced and knowledgeable. They had never seen such a small army!

　　I’ve really never seen it before…

　　The battle on the mountain had yet to begin. The people on the other side had fled and the array was gone. Only the Heavenly Courts’ Water God had appeared. Now, he was gone. A younger Demon King asked honestly, “The people from the Immortal Du Sect have already gone to the mountain. Why should we fight? Should we fight against the mountain?” “Don’t fall into the Water God’s trap! He is clearly trying to sow discord between us and… that fellow Daoist. Now, he wants to use such an abnormal situation to scare us away! The Water God is cunning. Don’t fall for it!”

　　“There are thousands of disciples in the Immortal Du Sect. How can they retreat so easily? Who was it that leaked the news!?!”

　　“Time is fleeting. Why are we still hesitating? Can the souls of the Demon Ascension Mountain be at ease? Can the anger of the demons be appeased!?!” The few old demons in charge almost quarreled because of that.

　　Due to the fact that there were too many array formations on the Little Qiong Peak, Li Changshou simply pointed to a cloud mirror in the Pill Chamber and allowed Ling’e and Youqin Xuanya, who were playing chess, to see the situation outside.

　　He casually summoned the fan and waved it gently…

　　“Senior Brother.” Ling’e pointed at the figures in the mirror and asked in surprise, “What demons are these? They look so scary.” Youqin Xuanya was the Head Disciple of their batch. She had gone out several times and was quite knowledgeable. At that moment, she pinched her chin with her slender fingers and commented seriously, “The books say that the more physical characteristics the demons have retained, the more ferocious they will be.”

　　Ling’e knelt there and looked at the mirror. “How many demons are here?”

　　“More than a hundred thousand,” Li Changshou replied calmly with his eyes closed. “A hundred thousand!”

　　Ling’e, who originally trusted her senior brother very much, could not help but purse her lips. “Senior Brother, 98%?” “Otherwise?”

　　Li Changshou opened his eyes and asked, “Are you questioning my escape technique?” Ling’e giggled. “I wouldn’t dare to do that. Senior Brother, your escape technique is peerless! You’re invincible when it comes to running!” Li Changshou smiled in satisfaction. He waved the fan in his hand, and the ground trembled slightly. The surrounding immortal light flickered, and the entire Pill Chamber began to slowly sink. The Little Qiong Peak looked calm, but all kinds of array formations were slowly operating in secret. The array foundations were gradually lit up, and the spiritual energy of the five elements increased… The Pill Chamber descended into the mountain and connected to the top of the Cave Abode in the mountain. The Pill Chamber, which was shaped like a huge gourd, was perfectly connected to the gaps in the mountain. The pathways that it passed through were also tightly filled by the mountain rocks.

　　Then, he heard a rumbling sound. The bookshelves around the Pill Chamber slowly flipped over, revealing the Glazed Mirror that was surrounded by clouds. Li Changshou waved his fan, and the Dharma treasure, the Glazed Mirror, revealed the land outside the Little Qiong Peak. They were perfectly synchronized at the same time without any blind spots. To a certain extent, they had reached the stage of becoming one! “The Primordial World is not far away.” Ling’e was very calm as she watched the fancy operations. After all, she had witnessed most of her senior brother’s modifications.

　　Youqin Xuanya could not regain her senses. After being stunned for a while, she could not help but ask, “What are these?”

　　“Array formations, restrictions, and some Dharma spells have been integrated,” Li Changshou replied calmly. “Remember not to mention it to anyone.” “Yes, Senior Brother Changshou, don’t worry.” Youqin Xuanya pursed her thin lips. Li Changshou smiled and replied.

　　Although she would always take unexpected actions when dealing with the ways of the world, she was trustworthy. After all, he had already sworn a Dao oath related to confidentiality several times.

　　Ling’e shouted nervously, “Senior Brother, they’re here!”

　　“Yes,” Li Changshou agreed calmly. Then, he closed his eyes and muttered, “What we need to do now is to stall for time. We can’t kill all the demons here. We still have to leave a portion of the demon experts behind to build up momentum.” Then, he focused his attention on the dozen of paper effigies or so and managed the Immortal Bean Soldiers.

　　The demons were indeed demons…

　　Li Changshou had prepared three backup plans for the battle of the Immortal Du Sect. He had already prepared for the worst-case scenario where he would destroy most of the Immortal Du Sect. However, the demons were the best at allowing him not to worry. At that moment, the group of demons neither retreated nor attacked. Instead, they sent 30% of their troops and a small number of experts to enter the sect…

　　Forget it. Killing demons today is secondary. Striking Ksitigarbha from afar is the main thing.

　　Li Changshou gave a simple order in his heart. The Immortal Bean Soldiers on the top of more than ten peaks stood up at the same time. The “Heavenly Soldiers” holding large shields and long spears soared into the sky in rows. The Immortal Soldiers in charge of long-range attacks were already pulling their bows. The arrows rained down, and the drums sounded like thunder. The demons roared, and the world was dyed red. Numerous figures descended. The powerful Demon Kings pounced towards the various peaks. Li Changshou’s more than ten Heaven Immortal realm paper effigies went out to fight. As soon as they clashed with the demon soldiers, they exploded!

　　Three weaker Demon Kings were torn apart by the paper effigy’s self-destruction. Several Demon Kings were seriously injured!

　　The angry roars of the old demons spread everywhere. “It’s still the bean soldiers! These are all the incarnations of the Water God. His main body must be here!”

　　“Hahahaha! Stop looking around.”

　　A loud laughter sounded in the sky. A figure appeared strangely in the sky above the Heaven-Breaking Peak. He was dressed in a white robe, had white hair, and a white beard. There was a small pagoda spinning above his head, emitting a mysterious aura.

　　He stood with his hands behind his back. The horsetail whisk in his hand was replaced with a golden sword. He stood proudly in the air and suppressed the world.

　　“I’m here. What can you do to me?”

　　Many demons’ eyes turned red. A few old demons gritted their teeth. An old demon with a child-like face cursed. “Water God! You are a ruthless, despicable, and shameless person! You slaughtered the demons and destroyed the destiny of the demons. Did the demons have any feud with you?” Li Changshou pursed his lips and said calmly, “Could it be that in ancient times, the demons nearly massacred the human race? Is that not considered a feud?”

　　“The human race is already the protagonist of the world. Isn’t it enough that my race has retreated to the gaps of the five continents?”

　　Li Changshou said calmly, “The demon who said that, do you think that the ancient Demon Court was overthrown by the human race because you demons gave the victory to us?” Or could it be that the former Demon Emperor died because his conscience was awakened in the face of the human race?”

　　Another old demon roared, “The human race is just taking advantage of the fact that both the demons and the Magi are injured! How can that be called bravery!?!” Li Changshou smiled coldly and said, “Forget it. In the past, the human race was still weak. They only knew how to reproduce and did not know how to cultivate. The demons, who were already at their peak, massacred the human race. How can they be brave?”

　　“The human race did not die. They worked hard. Generations of wise sages stood up and explored the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth to protect the human

　　race!”

　　“You demons do not know any better and are arrogant. Since you have done evil, you must bear the consequences. The human race fought against the strong as the weak. The Three Emperors and Five Kings have established their foundations and become the main characters of the world today!” “You are just defeated dogs from ancient times. Your evil intentions will not be extinguished, and your good intentions will not be born. You will be plagued by negative karma and find it difficult to secure a footing in the world. You will harm the Magi and refine them into evil spirits! How could we not destroy the swordsman who had gone to the Demon Ascension Mountain that day? Today, you actually dared to come here and talk about this matter. How dare you make a ruckus in the Immortal Sect of Ren School! How ridiculous! It is said that the older the demons are, the thicker their skin will be. You are indeed worthy of being the legendary figures of the demons. You are extremely shameless!”

　　“You!”

　　The old demon’s face turned red and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

　　The old demon stomped his feet and cursed, “Water God! You are obstinate and want to start a war between the two races again. You have to bear the karma here!”

　　“You still don’t understand,” Li Changshou said calmly. “Demons are a race that gathers all spirits. The good and bad are mixed together. They have no bloodline foundation! Personally, I never thought that the demons were the enemy of humans. The benevolent Goddess Nuwa has also joined the demon race. The Qing Qiu Clan that adheres to love and equality is also a branch of the demon race. Be they demons or humans, only those evil living beings who eat and kill humans, treat living beings as weeds, intend to control them and bully the other races, are the enemies of the entire Primordial World! I can kill such demons, but I will not spare them! The Heavenly Courts can eliminate such living beings. They will not leave any future troubles!” As soon as Li Changshou finished speaking, the world fell silent. Many demons’ eyes were filled with suspicion. After a while, a bear spirit finally muttered, “What if I can’t win?”

　　“Why do I feel that what the Water God said… makes sense?”

　　“Don’t listen to his nonsense! The human race will definitely not tolerate us!”

　　An old demon roared loudly. Several old demons rushed towards Li Changshou in the sky! “After killing the Water God, the saints can prosper!”

　　Then, dozens of Demon Kings moved together. They used their mystical abilities and threw out their Dharma treasures. They turned into streams of light and smashed towards Li Changshou.

　　However, as the Mysterious Yellow aura descended, Li Changshou stood in the air calmly. He did not move despite the attacks of the demons.

　　Even the Pagoda Master, who had been very excited previously, seemed to be in low spirits… “Weak… so boring… Have you guys not eaten yet?” “I feel that being beaten up by them is a disgrace to the Dharma treasures world.”

　　“Little disciple, quickly show your mystical abilities and kill these guys.” Li Changshou agreed in his heart. He found the right time to attack and waved his hand to release two pitch-black silver needles. The silver needles were coated with poison, which was refined from the poison that Li Changshou had extracted from the West Sea Dragon King, which he had almost put down. The “silver needles” were made from the precious “Black Immortal Stone” that could break through the immortal light protecting the body. It looked like a casual attack, but the actual cost was quite high, and it was difficult to use it again.

　　However, the effect was not bad.

　　In the blink of an eye, half of the demons that were attacking were pierced by the silver needles.

　　The demons did not feel any power at first. However, just as they circulated their immortal power, their vision suddenly turned dark. There were also a few demons who were barely at the Heaven Immortal realm. They slowly transformed into their true forms in the air and died. Their demonic souls turned into black smoke and dissipated.

　　The demons’ expressions changed.

　　An old demon roared and called the demons to attack together. Countless demonic shadows flew towards Li Changshou. Not long after, they surrounded Li Changshou and used their mystical abilities and Dharma treasures.

　　However, just as the demons surrounded them, bolts of lightning lit up the sky and defeated the demons that were surrounding them! The Immortal Bean Soldiers on the various peaks attacked again. The demons who were originally around the mountain gate had already been ordered to attack. An intense battle began in the Immortal Du Sect.

　　The Mysterious Yellow Pagoda above Li Changshou’s head rushed left and right. Lightning, poisonous powder, and True Samadhi Flames were casually thrown out. Large amounts of demonic soldiers fell to the ground and smashed all over the Immortal Du Sect.

　　In the Pill Chamber of Little Qiong Peak, Youqin Xuanya and Ling’e looked at the image in the mirror and did not know what to say. Looking at the old immortal killing everywhere, they even had the illusion that they could do it. Youqin Xuanya whispered, “Senior, you are…”

　　Ling’e muttered, “He’s from the Heavenly Courts. I don’t know.”

　　Li Changshou said calmly, “Don’t underestimate these demons. It will be effortless for them to destroy the Immortal Du Sect. The few old demons here are comparable to the weaker Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals. The reason you think you can deal with it easily is because of the pagoda above your head. This pagoda is called the Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Pagoda of Heaven and Earth. It was bestowed by the Saint to help me deal with these powerful enemies.” Ling’e and Youqin Xuanya looked at each other speechlessly. Ling’e asked softly, “But Senior Brother, isn’t the one outside your paper effigy?” “You can recognize it.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “From today onwards, don’t leave the jade token that I gave you previously. If someone detects your thoughts, my identity will be exposed.” Li Changshou changed his tone and said seriously, “I didn’t let the two of you come into contact with these today to watch the fun. Ling’e, have you seen the dangers of the Primordial World today?”

　　Ling’e nodded with a solemn expression. “Junior Sister Youqin,” Li Changshou said, “I hope you remember what happened today. After you break through to the Heaven Immortal realm, I will arrange a path for you if you want to kill the demons and let the righteousness in your heart rest.”

　　Youqin Xuanya cupped her fists and lowered her head. “I will not disappoint you, Senior Brother!”

　　Ling’e raised her hand weakly from the side. “But Senior Brother… what if the paper effigies are taken away by the Ren School’s treasure?”

　　Li Changshou could not help but laugh. He said, “This treasure belongs to the Grand Pure One of the Ren School. Even other Saints can’t snatch it away. Oh? An expert is here. Watch your surroundings. I’ll return my attention to my main body and deal with them.”

　　After saying that, the fan in Li Changshou’s hand stopped swaying. He closed his eyes and focused. There was no sound.

　　Youqin Xuanya asked softly, “Where is Senior Brother Changshou’s mian body?”

　　“That’s hard to say,” Ling’e muttered. “However, usually, Senior Brother will be in the safest place… Look!”

　　Ling’e exclaimed softly. Youqin Xuanya looked up as well. She could not help but feel worried.

　　A vortex appeared in the sky above a glass mirror. Dozens of streams of light shot out from it. They were ferocious and powerful! The Primordial Beast of the Western Sect had already attacked! Li Changshou, who was fighting the experts of the demon race, suddenly had his eyes lit up. That was because the Primordial Beasts that rushed over hid the aura that he was most familiar with.

　　Buzz ~

　　Daoist Wen Jing’s voice sounded in Li Changshou’s ears. However, she smiled flirtatiously and said, “Sir, you’re really heroic. My heart is blooming.” Li Changshou said calmly, “The Great Daoist Master might be watching.” “Although you are handsome and suave, I still respect you more.”

　　“Stop talking nonsense. Do as I say. Did Ksitigarbha attack this time?”

　　“Yes.”

　　As he spoke, more than ten handsome men and beautiful women joined the battle. However, they forced the demons back and launched fierce attacks.

　　Li Changshou was not afraid at all. Relying on the power of the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda, he held his sword and counterattacked more than ten people. However, the strength that he had displayed was only at the Golden Immortal realm. He was not a threat to the Primordial Beasts at all.

　　The beasts calmed down!

　　When the few old demons saw that, they also took out their Dharma treasures, demonic beads, and mystical abilities from the side and bombarded Li Changshou. Hence, the Pagoda Master yawned and expressed that things were starting to get interesting. The figures crossed each other, and the battle situation became increasingly tense. After fighting for a while, Li Changshou seemed to be unable to do anything… The paper effigy’s immortal power was almost exhausted.

　　A few ferocious beasts forcefully restrained Li Changshou and the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda. A black ray of light flew over from the side. It was a black horn made of jade. It was crashing into the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda. The Mysterious Yellow Pagoda swayed and was forced to move half a foot back. Half of Li Changshou’s body left the Mysterious Yellow aura. In an instant, several streams of light shot towards Li Changshou’s exposed body. However, a sanguine glow flashed past quickly. The beautiful figure strangely appeared in front of Li Changshou. She pointed a slender finger and immediately poked Li Changshou’s shoulder. The beasts’ eyes lit up. Li Changshou’s body quickly withered!

　　At that moment, Daoist Wen Jing revealed her true form. The corners of her lips curled into a charming smile, and she snorted comfortably. However, Daoist Wen Jing’s expression suddenly changed. She hurriedly dodged backward and saw a drop of blue ‘water’ hit her chest. The water droplet suddenly expanded and turned into a 100-feet-long water dragon. It contained vast divine might and sent Daoist Wen Jing flying! The resentment in Daoist Wen Jing’s eyes flashed. Her body flashed in midair and disappeared again. Look below the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda!

　　The shriveled “Li Changshou” turned into a wrinkled paper effigy. The paper effigy was engulfed by the flames. The “Golden Core” inside flew back to the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda.

　　A small figure walked out of the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda. In the blink of an eye, the figure became the size of a normal person. It was still white-haired and had the same appearance as before.

　　However, the pressure on his body was more than ten times stronger than before!

　　He heard the sound of water roaring. A water map slowly spread out in front of him. Azure dragons flew out from it and roared at the surroundings.

　　Another blue flag fluttered behind him, and rich divine power enhanced the power of heaven and earth.

　　He held the vertical axis of the water map with his left hand and raised the Demon-Slaying Sword with his right hand. His beard and hair fluttered as he shouted, “Where are the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals! Surround this place! Don’t let a single demon escape!” Suddenly, he heard the rumbling of thunder above his head. Thick dark clouds had already swept over. From the dark clouds, countless human voices could be heard.

　　“There!”

　　Beams of golden light pierced through the dark clouds and filled the sky with the figures of the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals. A series of dragon roars suddenly came from the east and south. Hundreds of azure dragons flew over quickly, and there were ancient warlocks full of blood energy on their backs! An old demon roared, “B*stard, today’s situation was plotted by Ksitigarbha and the Water God! They’re using our race to give themselves merit!” “Don’t slander me!”

　　Another Primordial Beast shouted angrily, “How can we join forces with the Heavenly Courts!?!” “Only Ksitigarbha knows about what happened today! Who else could it be but him?” “You will be exposed if you march!” “Heh.” Li Changshou’s cold laughter spread throughout the world. “It seems that I can’t let half of your remnant souls escape today.” As he spoke, an azure ball of lightning gathered under his feet. The ball of lightning exploded gently, causing lightning to fill the sky and illuminate the entire world!

　　Lightning Escape! Li Changshou entered the lightning. Wherever the lightning passed, the sword flashed and the water dragon surged. He seemed to have transformed into thousands of incarnations and attacked violently. In reality, he was just too fast and was using the lightning to move!

　　In the blink of an eye, more than ten demon kings were killed. The two Primordial Beasts were severely injured. Li Changshou’s figure moved through the lightning. The ferocious beasts and old demons could not capture his figure! That was the Heavenly Courts’ civil officials…

　　It was a small but powerful trump card.

　　At the same time, in the corner of the spiritual mountain, the young Daoist closed his eyes and smiled as he listened to Truth Listener report the battle of the Immortal Du Sect.

　　Everything happened according to his plan. It did not matter how many demons died… At that moment, just as Truth Listener said that, Wen Jing decisively attacked and killed the Water God. However, the young Daoist slowly nodded when the latter injured Wen Jing.

　　“This Wen Jing is eager to make a contribution. She’s just a little smart. She’s not very useful.”

　　Truth Listener suddenly turned to listen. After listening for a while, it muttered softly, “Master, you’re in big trouble this time.” Ksitigarbha frowned.
