Chapter 219: Killing the Immortal of the Heavenly Demon Palace
Not only that, Lu Yi had previously comprehended the power of the stars on the Sky Star Tree. Up to now, the power of the stars was only at the domain level. Now, with the improvement of the Star-Slaying Sword Technique, it has actually been upgraded to the law level.
The law of stars!
It can be said that the harvest this time was extremely huge.
Afterwards, Lu Yi also absorbed the reward for his understanding of the law of power.
His power law also improved a lot, but it was still a long way from 30%.
Lu Yi was not too disappointed about this. After all, it was at the law level. Lu Yi had not yet become an immortal, but it was already quite good that he could master such profound laws.
Just like that, Lu Yi continued to practice peacefully.
…………
Eight years later.
Western Regions, Demon Palace.
A deep and dark demonic light suddenly appeared, covering the entire Heavenly Demon Palace. Rich demonic energy surged, as if the end of the world had come.
Even the Heavenly Demon Palace's protective formation could not completely withstand such a commotion. Wisps of demonic light rushed out of the formation, and the sky became pitch black, causing the Buddhist monks who were also in the Western Regions to look up in the direction of the Heavenly Demon Palace.
The abbot of the Buddhist sect sat cross-legged in the palace, and the wooden fish in his hands stopped beating.
There was a trace of shock on his old face, and he clasped his hands together: "Amitabha... Which old devil has come out of this world with this aura? I'm afraid the entire Western Region will be devastated."
An old monk who was sweeping the floor in the Sutra Library also paused and looked in the direction of the Heavenly Demon Palace. His calm eyes flickered with fluctuations: "Old Demon Yuan Yuan...isn't he still alive?"
His brows were furrowed, and he stood in the courtyard for a long time.
In addition to the Buddhist sect, there are several powerful ancestors of the holy lands of the immortal sects in the Western Regions who also felt this terrible demonic energy. Their faces changed drastically and their expressions became ugly.
Inside the Heavenly Demon Palace, the Palace Master and a number of the palace's old ancestors had faces filled with surprise at this moment. They all turned into streams of light and disappeared on the spot.
They came to the sky above an abyss deep in the Heavenly Demon Palace. At this moment, there was a surging demonic energy gushing out from the abyss. Clusters of black mist were extremely terrifying, emitting rich demonic light, and there were also mysterious demonic patterns flashing.
The Lord of the Heavenly Demon Palace, along with a group of old ancestors of the Heavenly Demon Palace, bowed and clasped their hands together.
"Congratulations to Grandmaster Yuan Yuan for coming out of retreat and making further progress in his skills!"
"Congratulations to Patriarch Yuan Yuan for coming out of seclusion!"
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of the Lord of the Demon Palace and others.
Even the Lord of the Demon Palace and others could not see clearly how this figure appeared.
He was wearing a black robe, had a handsome face, black hair draped over his shoulders, and a faint smile on his face, looking like a harmless boy next door.
The eyes of this boy next door are extremely deep and have a sense of age.
He glanced at the Sky Demon Palace Master and the others, then looked up into the void, sighed slightly, and chuckled, "So what if my skills are profound? The path to becoming an immortal has been cut off, and I am just lingering on."
Xuxian is a being who failed to survive the calamity of ascension.
Under the calamity of ascension, their path to immortality has been interrupted. Even if they reach the realm of virtual immortality, it is still a dead end.
The Lord of the Heavenly Demon Palace consoled him, "Ancestor Yuan Yuan is already a rare genius in the history of Tianming. After all, how many cultivators can survive after failing the Ascension Tribulation?"
An old ancestor also sighed: "Yes, old ancestor, even if we want to survive the ascension calamity, we are not qualified yet."
"Yes, and the Demon Ancestor also said that even if one's foundation is damaged during the Ascension Tribulation, there is still a chance to make up for it in the future. From what the Demon Ancestor said, even if one is a virtual immortal, there is still hope that one can break through and then stand up again."
Yuan Yuan's eyes flickered, and then he shook his head: "Even the Demon Ancestor only heard about it. Who knows the truth? Forget it, this is fate."
Then he turned to look at the Lord of the Heavenly Demon Palace: "I have been in seclusion for a thousand years. Will anything big happen tomorrow?"
Hearing this, the Lord of the Heavenly Demon Palace and the old ancestors who were in the Tribulation Crossing Realm looked at each other.
Then, a group of great figures in the Tribulation Realm looked bleak and cried, "Ancestor Yuan Yuan, you have to make the decision for us and for the Heavenly Demon Palace!"
Hearing this, Yuan Yuan frowned, the smile on his face gradually faded, and he asked, "What's going on?"
"It's like this. An evildoer appeared in the Eastern Region of Tianming. Eighty years ago, immortality appeared in the Eastern Region. The ancestor of my Heavenly Demon Palace, the new generation successor Dongfang Lu, and several powerful people in the palace went there to seek immortality. However, that evildoer didn't even have a word with me and killed all the ancestors and successors of my Heavenly Demon Palace! He didn't take my Heavenly Demon Palace seriously at all!" The face of the Heavenly Demon Palace Lord was extremely ugly.
Hearing this, Yuan Yuan also frowned: "What kind of evil person is this? How could he not even take my Heavenly Demon Palace seriously?"
"This beast is called Lu Yi, and he is known as the most powerful genius in the history of Tianming. He has an extremely amazing talent. At that time, he was only at the Fusion Realm, but he mastered the laws of the sword and could even create a great formation for overcoming the tribulation. Even the Yuan Laozu fell into his hands."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Yuan's expression changed: "He has mastered the laws at the Fusion Stage? He can even create a great formation to transcend tribulation? Such talent is indeed something to be proud of."
"Not only that, there was news a few days ago that a great battle at the level of ancestors who were transcending tribulation occurred in the sky above the Eastern Region, and eventually even immortal-level forces appeared. Among them, several ancestors-level figures in the Eastern Region felt Lu Yi's breath." The Lord of the Heavenly Demon Palace continued.
"I think this is nonsense! Even if Lu Yi breaks through to the Mahayana realm, if he really faces the attack of an immortal, he will definitely not be able to resist it! Even a strong man in the Tribulation Realm, he may not be his opponent, right?" An old ancestor of the Heavenly Demon Palace frowned and said.
“But we have to say that the thunder tribulation in Lu Yi’s Mahayana realm was indeed extremely terrifying. Even the sky collapsed. It is said that the Taoist sound at the beginning appeared when he deduced the immortal scriptures.” Another old ancestor of the Heavenly Demon Palace spoke with a very complicated expression.
Yuan Yuan was somewhat surprised when he heard this: "...After breaking through to the Mahayana realm, he was able to deduce the Immortal Scripture? Is this true? It's not a story?"
The ancestors of the Heavenly Demon Palace looked at each other with strange expressions.
“Ancestor, we also hope that this is just a story.” The expressions of the ancestors who were transcending the tribulation were bitter.
Yuan Yuan's expression gradually became solemn.
The Lord of the Heavenly Demon Palace said, "Ancestor, Lu Yi killed the Heavenly Demon Palace's Tribulation Master and his descendants. Over the years, we have been incompetent and unable to deal with him. Now the Western Region Demon Sect believes that the Heavenly Demon Palace is no longer as good as before, and many sects are pretending to obey us but secretly disobeying us. If we are unable to kill Lu Yi and maintain the dignity of the Heavenly Demon Palace, the situation of our Heavenly Demon Palace will probably not be very good."
Yuan Yuan's face was cold, he thought for a moment, and said: "I have broken through to the Four Tribulations Void Immortal Realm during this retreat. No matter how strong Lu Yi is, he can't be my opponent. I'll go."
The Lord of the Heavenly Demon Palace said, "Old Ancestor, just in case, can you bring the Heavenly Demon Drum with you? This way, we can be sure that nothing goes wrong."
Yuan Yuan was stunned, then frowned and thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, this way, we will definitely be able to kill Lu Yi!"
All the ancestors of the Heavenly Demon Palace breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ancestor Yuan Yuan is wise!"
"Go and ask for the immortal weapon!"
…………
At the same time, in Baiyun Sect.
Lu Yi sat cross-legged in the training room, breathing in and out spiritual energy.
During these eight years, Lu Yi comprehended skills and techniques, as well as various immortal cultivation techniques during the day, and practiced to improve his cultivation at night.
Of course, from time to time, he would practice dual cultivation with Liu Ningshuang and others.
Life is very comfortable and happy.
His cultivation level also improved at an extremely fast speed.
When it comes to the Mahayana realm, it is very difficult to improve one's cultivation. An average Mahayana cultivator would find it difficult to improve one level of cultivation even after a thousand years. However, it has only been eight years since Lu Yi arrived, but he has already approached the limit of the first level. In another one or two years, he should be able to break through to the second level.
This cultivation speed is not slow.
As for the improvement of various skills and techniques, Lu Yi, on the one hand, issued tasks, and on the other hand, relied on his current understanding and the number of enlightenment rewards he received from his master's preaching tasks, which were also steadily improving.
The only thing that is difficult to improve is the immortal art, but there is no way to do it. After all, it is a technique that involves the laws. If the laws are not improved, it will be difficult to improve the immortal art.
Of course Lu Yi is not in a hurry, after all, he hasn't ascended yet.
One day, Lu Yi was practicing. Suddenly, he opened his eyes, and a mysterious light flashed in his eyes.
Lu Yi was shocked that he sensed malicious intent again.
He was speechless, his head was covered with black lines. Why do people always want to harm me? It has not even been ten years since those Rakshasa monks wanted to kill him last time, and now there are monks who want to deal with him again.
Could it be another Rakshasa? Lu Yi was a little confused, so he asked, "Let me see who it is."
He used a little deduction technique to push back with malice.
Soon, a picture appeared in Lu Yi's mind.
In a magnificent palace, the demonic energy was surging everywhere and mysterious demonic light was flowing in the sky.
In a deep cave, several monks in the Tribulation Crossing realm with extremely powerful auras were taking out a black drum that was roughly the size of a human head.
The black drum was held in the hands of a handsome monk who looked like a boy next door.
When he saw this monk, Lu Yi was shocked and his pupils contracted.
He actually felt quite threatened!
This cultivator's cultivation was extremely powerful, even surpassing the Tribulation Realm.
Is it Xuxian? Not only that, this black drum emitting a strong demonic energy also made Lu Yi tremble with fear and was somewhat shocked.
This is a magical weapon!
Lu Yi was extremely shocked. Who wanted to deal with him, a virtual immortal or a magical weapon?
Such a big deal!
Lu Yi was thinking about the scene in his mind before. The thick demonic energy was surging, and the mysterious demonic patterns were flashing. It was obviously the sect of the demonic cultivators.
Based on his deduction, Lu Yi discovered that the area of this place was in the west.
Lu Yi thought for a moment and quickly recalled the cultivators from the Heavenly Demon Palace.
When he was in Tianlu Mountain, he killed the Tribulation Crossing Ancestor and his successor of the Heavenly Demon Palace.
There has been no movement in the Demon Palace in recent years, and Lu Yi thought that the matter was over.
Unexpectedly, the Heavenly Demon Palace actually found the Immortal and the Immortal Weapon! Lu Yi's expression gradually turned cold, and a cold and stern look appeared in his eyes.
Before, Lu Yi had not gone to the Heavenly Demon Palace to cause trouble for it. Since the Heavenly Demon Palace intended to deal with him, he naturally would not be polite.
The Heavenly Demon Palace is the holy land of the Immortal Sect, and it is probably guarded by an Immortal Formation. Even though Lu Yi has a very high level of attainment in the art of formations, and can even refine a sect-protecting formation that is not much worse than an Immortal Formation, he still has awe in the face of an Immortal Formation.
Lu Yi would not directly attack the Heavenly Demon Palace's lair.
In that case, let’s deal with the monks from the Demon Palace on the way.
Lu Yi narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment, merged into the space, and disappeared into the cave.
To get to the Eastern Region from the Western Region, even for a strong man in the realm of Void Immortal, it would take a certain amount of time, so he could go and make some arrangements first.
…………
Half a month later, a huge black ancient ship crossed the sky.
The ancient ship was filled with a strong demonic light and released a powerful spiritual pressure.
This is an extremely rare flying magic weapon of the top-grade spiritual weapon level.
The flying magic weapon of the top-grade spiritual weapon level was extremely fast. It only took half a month to travel from the Western Regions to Dongzhou.
There were three figures standing on the bow of the black ancient ship.
Leading the group was Yuan Yuan, who looked like a boy next door, with an old woman and an old man on his left and right.
Both of them have gray hair and wrinkled faces.
However, their auras are equally powerful. The old woman is at the seventh level of Tribulation, and the old man has even reached the eighth level of Tribulation. In the entire Tianming, they are also ceiling-level strongmen.
Yuan Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the land passing by below, and chuckled, "You don't have to accompany me here. I will go back after killing Lu Yi. It won't take long."
The old woman on the left said, "Grandmaster, we are here to help you. After all, there may be people at the Tribulation Crossing Realm in the Baiyun Sect where Lu Yi is. Old Qi and I will keep other uncertain factors out for you. You just need to focus on dealing with Lu Yi."
The old man on the right also nodded: "Yes, ancestor, Lu Yi is very extraordinary. Even if his cultivation is only at the Mahayana realm, I am afraid he has some trump cards. The Palace Master is right. We can't give him any chance to breathe. If he escapes, it will be a disaster for my Tianmo Palace."
Yuan Yuan listened to what the two said and exclaimed: "I didn't expect that little guy Nan Mingyuan has grown to this point after not seeing him for a thousand years. He is very thoughtful and does things perfectly."
The two old ancestors who were in the Tribulation Realm nearby also laughed.
"During the thousand years since the ancestor was in seclusion, the power of our Heavenly Demon Palace has continued to expand, overwhelming the Buddhist Sect and the Holy Light Sect. Even the Flame Demon Valley has been suppressed by our Heavenly Demon Palace. The Palace Master has made great contributions."
"Yes, the Palace Master has opened up new territories for our Heavenly Demon Palace and has made great contributions."
"Hahaha, not bad, not bad. With Mingyuan here, my Demon Palace will surely prosper!" Yuan Yuan smiled with satisfaction.
Soon the black ancient ship passed a huge mountain and came to a desert area.
Outside this desert area is the Eastern Region.
"It's almost there." Yuan Yuan said.
At this moment, a series of extremely mysterious array patterns suddenly emerged between heaven and earth.
The dense array patterns covered an area of tens of thousands of miles. These array patterns condensed into mysterious array diagrams. The terrifying pressure surged, making the two ancestors in the Tribulation Realm feel heavy in their chests and their faces turned pale.
Even Yuan Yuan's expression changed drastically.
"A large formation!?"
"This formation... is it a sect-protecting formation of the Immortal Sect's holy land level?! How could there be such a formation here?!"
Magical light was flowing around the three people, and on the ancient ship, there were also flashes of black light, covering the entire ancient ship.
The three of them looked around vigilantly.
At this moment, Yuan Yuan's face changed slightly, and he looked towards the void in one direction with a solemn expression: "My fellow Daoist, we are cultivators from the Heavenly Demon Palace. We are passing by your place and are sorry to disturb you. I hope you will let us leave."
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the other two Heavenly Demon Palace's tribulation-crossing ancestors changed, and they looked at Yuan Yuan and then into the void.
There is nothing in that direction.
At this moment, the void twisted, and a very handsome monk in white suddenly appeared, as if he had been there before.
When they saw this monk, the expressions of the three people changed.
"Lu Yi?!"
"Why are you here??"
Whether it was the two tribulation-crossing ancestors of the Heavenly Demon Palace or Yuan Yuan, they had all seen Lu Yi’s projection and naturally recognized Lu Yi at a glance.
That's right, the three of them were even more shocked and surprised. They didn't expect to meet him here.
Then, Yuan Yuan's face changed, as if he had thought of something. He looked at the surrounding formations with a cold and solemn expression: "Did you know we were coming?"
The other two cultivators in the Tribulation Realm were naturally not stupid and they also noticed the problem.
The two men's expressions changed at the same time and they looked at Lu Yi in disbelief.
Facing the gazes of the three people, Lu Yi just chuckled and nodded: "I do know."
“How is this possible?! Apart from the tribulation-receiving monks in my Heavenly Demon Palace, even the elders in the Mahayana realm don’t know that we came to the Eastern Region. How did you know?!” the old woman screamed.
Lu Yi raised his eyebrows, looked at the old woman with a half-smile, and said, "What do you think? Of course someone told me."
Hearing this, the old woman and the old man's faces changed, they were in disbelief, only Yuan Yuan's expression remained calm.
There were extremely dense demonic lights flickering around him, and a black demonic drum the size of a human head appeared above his head. It was the Heavenly Demon Drum.
The Heavenly Demon Drum exuded a heart-pounding pressure, and even Lu Yi looked at it solemnly.
"Don't be influenced by him. How could a cultivator who is undergoing tribulation in my Heavenly Demon Palace betray the Heavenly Demon Palace? This boy is extraordinary. I'm afraid he has mastered some kind of divination and has detected our whereabouts." The more Yuan Yuan spoke, the more solemn his expression became.
The two tribulation-crossing ancestors standing nearby were extremely shocked.
"...How is this possible? Even if it is the art of divination, can it predict the actions of us, the monks who are transcending tribulation?"
"Yes, not to mention that the ancestor is a virtual immortal."
Yuan Yuan naturally understood what the two meant. He shook his head and said, "This boy is very unusual. He cannot be treated with common sense. Just because ordinary people can't do it, he may be able to do it."
Yuan Yuan glanced at the formation around him, his face solemn: "Judging from the formation here, you have been setting up here for quite some time, right?"
Lu Yi raised his eyebrows, looked at Yuan Yuan, and exclaimed: "Senior is indeed a virtual immortal, and is different from the cultivators in the realm of transcending tribulation. That's right, I have been waiting for you here for quite some time."
Yuan Yuan's expression was icy as he asked, "Are you confident that you can handle us?"
Lu Yi smiled and said, "We have to face it anyway, so why not prepare first and catch you off guard."
Yuan Yuan nodded slowly and said, "Young people are to be feared... If you didn't have a big grudge, I would be very optimistic about you."
He slowly rose into the air, the demonic light flickering around him, and streams of dark mist whistled. Then the demon drum slowly fell from above his head to in front of him.
"What a pity... Now, I can only kill a genius like you." Yuan Yuan's cold murderous intent spread like ice, and the surrounding space seemed to be condensed by murderous intent.
