Double Happiness
Chapter 907 Double Happiness (Happy Chinese New Year!)
The sealed place of the Dragon Demon Realm.
Many demons have settled here, but since there have been no demonic threats for many years, these demons have long since lost their vigilance.
A figure approached from afar and strolled leisurely into the city, ignored by the numerous demons.
The difference in cultivation level meant that these demons, who were only at the Heavenly Transformation level, couldn't see it at all, or even if they did, they would consciously ignore it.
He passed through the spatial rift and came to the ground, standing side by side with a demonic ape undergoing the third tribulation of heavenly transformation, who was looking at the blazing sun that the demon court had transformed into in the distance with astonishment and uncertainty.
"The Demon Court's foundation is extraordinary; the power it has displayed is already above that of a demigod. No wonder it can contend with the Demon God Mountain Court," Ying said softly.
The demonic ape turned its head and glanced at the sun, a thought popping into its mind: Who is this guy? But the thought vanished without a trace as soon as it appeared, and it just stared intently at the sun, wondering if Lord Gu could withstand it. If he couldn't, the Dragon Demon Domain would probably be turned upside down.
Ying glanced at the Blood Dragon, then at the spatial rift torn open by the power of the Barbarian God, and finally looked towards the location of Demon God Mountain. She murmured to herself, "Demon God Mountain hasn't made a move yet, what a pity. But the power of the Demon Race, Barbarian Race, and Asura Race should be enough. Even if they can't defeat Gu Yuanqing, they should be able to keep him in check. But, can this mountain really lead to the Linglong Realm?"
As he spoke, his figure vanished.
The demonic ape looked back again, its eyes somewhat blurred.
"There seemed to be someone here just now. Who was that person?"
In the blink of an eye, the thought vanished without a trace, and he could no longer recall that there had ever been anyone beside him.
The underground cave is located at the foot of Beiquan Mountain.
A clone of the shadow arrived, its aura concealed within the demonic energy, not a trace of its presence leaking out, and its figure merging seamlessly with the void.
Such methods have already surpassed the level of ordinary demigods.
Over the years, his control over the aura of the true demon has reached a new level, and his spiritual power has also improved considerably. If he were to face the Great Sun Sky-Patrolling Mirror from back then, even if he could not match it head-on, he certainly would not be in such a sorry state.
However, he still dared not be careless when facing this mountain, and only focused his attention on it.
For him, this was just a test.
His feud with Gu Yuanqing lasted for nearly six hundred years. In the beginning, Gu Yuanqing was only at the Dao Fire Realm, while he was just a wisp of divine soul descending to the mortal realm with the help of the Heavenly Demon Sword.
Today, even if this divine soul is just a clone that has flown out again, it is far more powerful than the original body, and Gu Yuanqing has also reached the realm of demigod.
"Truly, the world has changed, and things are no longer the same! However, none of that matters. The only purpose is to enter the place where the Demon Lord's soul resides."
……
Within the North Spring Cave.
The cultivators of the Qian Yuan Realm and the spirit beasts in the grotto heavens were all as usual, completely unaware of the threat coming from the Demon Realm.
Gu Yuanqing stood atop the mountain, his expression calm and composed.
Li Miaoxuan glanced at Gu Yuanqing but said nothing more. Since he had said that, he must be confident.
Moreover, she could roughly guess what Gu Yuanqing wanted to do.
To be honest, she already knew enough about this mountain. Gu Yuanqing didn't deliberately hide anything, but even now, he still finds everything about the mountain incredible. No wonder he was unwilling to leave back then.
Compared to this mountain, what opportunity could possibly allow us to rival it?
In the blink of an eye, the Golden Crow's true solar fire had already entered the cave.
Gu Yuanqing made no move. With a thought, he used his manipulation technique to silently dissolve the power of the fire, leaving only the purest Yang energy to be naturally drawn into the Yang power of the cave.
The same applies to the power of the Asura Blood Sea. The killing power that invaded the cave dissipated, and the remaining Yin energy transformed into resources for the Yin energy of the cave.
Neither the Demon Court nor the Asura Sea possessed their own power; rather, they relied on their imperial authority and the resources of their respective clans.
Both of these forces are the accumulation of countless years by the two races, and can be described as truly vast as the sea.
As the Demon Emperor said, even demigods are powerless to resist it; only the power of a true god can resolve it.
However, they happened to encounter Gu Yuanqing and Beiquan Cave.
Even the slash from the barbarian god didn't make Gu Yuanqing raise his eyes; any attack inside the cave was ineffective.
For him, who was inside the cave, perhaps the only threat was someone like Hades back then, who could surpass the limits of the cave in terms of power.
Apart from this, no external force can pose a threat.
Such a pure energy attack is no different from provisions.
Standing atop the mountain, Gu Yuanqing said with a hint of sarcasm, "So what if you two are just trash? Even if you control power above the demigod level, what can you do? I'm standing here, and even without making a move, you can't harm me in the slightest."
The mocking words, when they reached the ears of the Demon King and the Asura King, only fueled their anger.
The Demon Emperor let out a sharp, long howl, and the three-legged golden crow that the entire Demon Court had transformed into shone even brighter, with clusters of true solar fire falling directly from the Demon Court.
With each burst of flame, a brief darkness descended upon the void, signifying that all matter in the real world was incinerated, and even the spatial structure was destroyed by these flames.
The Asura King's expression grew even colder, his blood-red hair danced wildly, and the Asura Blood Sea surged endlessly, turning the area below Beiquan Mountain into a vast ocean!
Li Miaoxuan glanced at Gu Yuanqing, then at the two of them. This provocation was truly clumsy. If it were a human, they would probably overthink it. But it seemed quite effective against demons and Asuras.
Gu Yuanqing sensed the changes in Beiquan Cave Heaven. These two vast forces caused the Yin and Yang energies within the cave heaven to slowly rise.
However, the very fact that these forces are gradually becoming stronger, which can be clearly perceived, demonstrates the benefits these two forces bring to the cave.
A smile involuntarily appeared on Gu Yuanqing's face.
Sure enough, no one gets rich without unexpected wealth. If things had continued at the original pace, who knows when the cave would have truly transformed.
After all, Beiquan Cave Heaven is too vast. Perhaps it is only the last bit of power that is missing, and it may take decades or even hundreds of years to arrive.
Now, by leveraging the resources of these two races, the time that would normally be needed can be drastically shortened. Just like back then, if it weren't for the Great Sun Sky Patrol Realm, it might have taken hundreds of years just to condense the rudimentary form of ultimate yang and ultimate yin.
Li Miaoxuan had also sensed some changes in the spiritual energy within the cave, and chuckled, "It seems your plan has succeeded."
Gu Yuanqing smiled: "I hope they have more foundational knowledge and that they realize this later."
Li Miaoxuan covered her mouth and smiled, saying, "The Demon God Mountain hasn't made a move yet, but I'm afraid it won't be long before they realize something's wrong. No one who is a ruler of a clan is a fool."
Gu Yuanqing said, "Or perhaps they already sensed something was wrong, but they were simply unwilling to accept it because of their obsession. Besides, they were originally emperors, and their avatars were destroyed. If they didn't do something, wouldn't they lose face?"
On the other side, the barbarian god, formed from the power of sacrifice, struck once and then did not make another move.
Compared to the demon race and the asura race, the barbarian race has a much weaker foundation. Moreover, the barbarian emperor has only been in the Hun Tian Undying Realm for a few hundred years. For him, it is too early to consider the path beyond Hun Tian Undying.
He only came to join in the fun because of this opportunity, unlike the Demon Emperor and the Asura King who were in such a hurry. After making this move, they stopped and locked their auras from afar, watching the tigers fight and waiting for an opportunity to act.
Time passed little by little.
The peaks of Beiquan Mountain that had appeared in the Dragon Demon Realm were completely submerged in flames and a vast ocean.
However, the expressions of the Demon Emperor and the Asura King grew increasingly solemn. They felt that once the power they were controlling fell into the mountain, it was gone forever, and they could not find any response from beginning to end.
This mountain stands as firm and unmoving as a rock.
Flames powerful enough to incinerate everything lose their effect upon entering it, as does the sea of blood capable of penetrating everything.
More importantly, the power of Demon God Mountain has not appeared at all, and the Barbarian Emperor has been watching from the sidelines. Only the two of them are wasting their resources and power here.
They were worried about wasting their resources and also worried that if they actually conquered the mountain, they would be too exhausted and the Demon God Mountain and the barbarians would benefit from it.
Gu Yuanqing's Heavenly Eye of Insight detected their expressions and knew that they had already decided to back down.
Gu Yuanqing's voice rang out again, laughing mockingly, "With your meager strength, you dare to come looking for trouble with me? I think you should stop calling yourselves Demon Emperors and Asura Kings and just bring your demon and Asura clans under my command and serve me as your master. If I'm in a good mood, I might even bestow some opportunities upon you."
"You surnamed Gu, don't be too arrogant!" The Demon Emperor roared, and the three-legged golden crow that the Demon Court had transformed into once again held two crazy fans. It seemed to have used a secret technique, and the light of the great sun in the nine heavens was drawn and gathered by it. It crashed through the membrane of the Dragon Demon Realm and landed on Beiquan Mountain.
At that moment, it seemed as if the entire continent of the Demon Realm suddenly felt the sky darken.
At the summit of Demon God Mountain, Emperor Lieshan Yu watched as a pillar of fire pierced the sky and plunged into the Black Sea, his expression slightly hardening.
"The demon race's foundation is truly extraordinary; the power of the three-legged golden crow can actually directly draw upon the power of the great sun! However..."
Lie Shanyu suddenly turned his head to look to the west. As the power of the sun was fully concentrated in one place, the blood moon actually appeared in the sky during the day. Even though it was faintly visible, its radiance still draped the world of the Demon Realm in a layer of blood-red glow, and the elemental properties of this realm also quietly changed.
It was this crimson glow that caused a hint of madness to gradually appear in the eyes of both the Demon Emperor and the Asura King.
Even cultivators of their level cannot escape the influence of the Blood Moon, because they were born and cultivated in this world, and the power of the Blood Moon has long since penetrated into the depths of their souls and bodies.
Inside the cave, the figure who had been standing outside the base of Beiquan Mountain smiled and strode towards Beiquan Mountain.
The appearance of the Blood Moon's power signifies that the battle has reached its climax. Moreover, under the Blood Moon's light, his own power will be even greater, which will also affect Gu Yuanqing!
Within the North Spring Cave.
Gu Yuanqing smiled at Li Miaoxuan and said, "It seems it's really going to work out."
The power of the sun was directly showered down by the golden crow, which brought far greater benefits to Beiquan Cave Heaven than before.
He could sense that the power of ultimate yang was already at its peak, while the power of ultimate yin was slightly inferior, but at the current speed, it wouldn't take long either.
He could even sense that some strange changes were beginning to occur at the place where the yin and yang forces intersected.
Most of his attention was focused on this place; the transformation of Yin and Yang in this grotto-heaven would be the greatest opportunity on the path of Yin and Yang.
Li Miaoxuan's mind was also drawn to the depths of the cave, where the profound mysteries of the Great Dao were an immense opportunity for a Void Immortal. It was even possible to glimpse a glimpse of the secrets of creation within.
But at that moment, Gu Yuanqing's mind went blank for a moment.
Li Miaoxuan was in perfect harmony with him and naturally noticed it immediately.
Turning to ask, "What happened? What's going on?"
Gu Yuanqing laughed and said, "A little bug has slipped in."
"Who?" Li Miaoxuan asked in surprise.
“That clone of Qiu Weifeng, the shadow!” Gu Yuanqing smiled.
Li Miaoxuan said, "It seems he wants to do something while you're dealing with the demons and asuras. It's very likely that he's the one who stirred up this storm in the Demon Realm."
Gu Yuanqing nodded and said, "Compared to back then, his power is indeed much stronger. Having reached the demigod level, his control over the power of the true demon has also reached a new level. Before he entered the Beiquan Cave Heaven, I did not notice it at all."
"A mere wisp of spirit can grow to this extent; the power of the true demon is truly unfathomable," Li Miaoxuan said.
"Indeed, he originally cultivated the Heavenly Demon Sword Path, which has some similarities to the Heavenly Demon Path. However, he transformed their spiritual power for his own use. But when Qiu Weifeng descended into the Qian Yuan Realm, his divine soul was so weak. It is truly unbelievable that he could grow to this level."
At this point, Gu Yuanqing suddenly smiled and said, "Speaking of which, this True Demon Power is also of great use to me. The power I cut off from him back then has been almost completely exhausted. Today, he delivered it to my door himself, which is a double blessing for me!"
Li Miaoxuan cast a surprised look at him. As far as she knew, Gu Yuanqing had never been able to truly touch the power of the true demon, so how could there be any talk of consumption?
Gu Yuanqing explained, "I cannot truly touch this power itself, but it contains some aura that is very similar to the aura of incense. As you know, I have a supernatural ability that allows me to deduce all things using the aura of incense."
"Oh, I see." Li Miaoxuan responded, as she also knew a little about divination.
She had also studied the cultivation techniques within the Qian Yuan Sect. Even though some techniques had inherent limitations, each one was extremely perfect, and all of them were the work of Gu Yuanqing. Modifying a single technique, even a major overhaul, would take countless years, let alone so many. That's why she had asked Gu Yuanqing about it back then.
Gu Yuanqing added, "However, we can deal with this person's matter slowly after this battle. Right now, the transformation of the cave is more important."
Li Miaoxuan nodded, and under Gu Yuanqing's guidance, she once again focused her attention on the changes in the Yin and Yang power of the cave.
At this moment, seeing that summoning the power of the sun still could not shake Beiquan Mountain, the Demon Emperor roared angrily: "Lieshan Yu, are you really not going to make a move?"
Happy Chinese New Year to everyone! May you achieve great success!
Well, since everyone else is watching the Spring Festival Gala and enjoying fireworks, while I'm stuck writing, how about a monthly pass?
