Under the watchful gaze of the Great Sage Kuilong, the Demon Sage Bai Ze sat calmly to the side, remaining silent.
Once the Great Sage Kuilong was persuaded by him to lead his subordinates to invade the Heavenly Court, there was no turning back. He now has no way to retreat and can only go down this path to the bitter end.
Then he can be considered to have completed most of his mission this time.
Next, he just needs to figure out a way to keep the Great Sage Kuilong a little longer.
In any case, as long as it is delayed for one more day, the Heavenly Court will lose face for one more day, which is also a loss of face for Hu Le, the Supreme God of the Central Wuji Xuandong who presides over the Heavenly Court.
Anyway, he never expected that he could overthrow the Heavenly Court with just Kui Long Da Sheng and his gang...
Kui Long Da Sheng was displeased that his strategist ignored his gaze, so he decided to ask him directly.
"Strategist, I know you are resourceful and wise. Do you have a good plan to defeat the enemy?"
Bai Ze, the Demon Saint, sneered inwardly. "Heh heh, with your meager strength, you think you can win? Dream on..."
You, this so-called Demon Emperor, can't even defeat the Heavenly Court's Grand Marshal of the Demon-Subduing Army. Even if you won one battle, what difference would it make?
There are people in Heaven more powerful than him, and if Hu Le sends another one, you'll still be no match for him...
"Your Majesty, you've put me in a difficult position. The enemy outnumbers us, what can I do?" Bai Ze, the Demon Saint, said, shrugging.
"Alas, that's true. Not everyone in the Heavenly Court is mediocre. The heavenly general I fought today was quite capable. It took me a lot of effort to kill him," a demon general sighed.
“Indeed, it seems we underestimated the strength of the Heavenly Court.” Someone chimed in.
Kui Long the Great Sage touched his healed shoulder and said coldly, "You should all shut up! Don't boost others' morale and diminish your own. In my opinion, they're nothing special."
Especially their commander, that so-called Demon-Subduing Grand Marshal Yuan Zhen, his strength was only average. If he hadn't used his magical treasure to ambush me, I would have already killed him with my spear.
"Yes! That's such a pity. If His Majesty had been able to kill him earlier, we could have taken advantage of their leaderlessness and launched a counterattack. Perhaps we would have been the victors yesterday," one of the demon generals chimed in.
“Oh, that’s not entirely wrong,” Bai Ze Demon Saint nodded after hearing this, then looked at Kui Long Great Saint, “Your Majesty, you have already fought with him before and witnessed his magical treasures. Have you thought of a way to deal with him?”
Kui Long Dasheng shook his head. Although he had established himself as the Demon Emperor, he had only been in power for a short time and was not even a nouveau riche. At this time, he didn't even have a suitable magical treasure, let alone a protective treasure.
A poor wretch like him has always relied solely on a long spear to make his way in the world.
Moreover, relying on his innate superhuman strength and the supernatural abilities he possessed, he didn't need any magical treasures.
At this moment, he encountered the Grand Marshal of Demon Subduing, and finally realized the importance of the spiritual treasure...
He thought for a moment, then sighed inwardly, "Alas, I don't have any suitable magical treasures, so it will probably be difficult to defeat my opponent. However, I remember that my teacher has some magical treasures, otherwise I could borrow a couple from him..."
Kui Long Dasheng has not been a Daoist for long, yet he was able to fight Yuan Zhen to a draw without Yuan Zhen using any spiritual treasures, which shows that his Daoist cultivation is extremely advanced.
His strength was not innate; without instruction, he would never have possessed such skill...
"Strategist, you will stay in the camp for me from now on. I will go to the Primordial Wilderness to borrow two spiritual treasures. Then I can defeat him."
"Where does Your Majesty intend to borrow treasures? When will you return?" Bai Ze asked curiously.
"Where to? Of course, to my teacher's place... As for when I'll be back, that's hard to say, but don't worry, as long as I can borrow the magical treasure, I'll definitely be back as soon as possible," said the Great Sage Kuilong.
Bai Ze had spent so much time with Kui Long Da Sheng and noticed that Kui Long Da Sheng rarely mentioned his teacher. Even when someone asked him, Kui Long Da Sheng would only give a vague answer and move on, as if he had some unspeakable secret and was unwilling to talk about it.
Therefore, even now, Bai Ze, the Demon Saint, doesn't know who he is; he remains very mysterious...
...
Heavenly Court.
Inside the Tongming Hall, a mirror hangs in mid-air, reflecting the scene on the battlefield.
Hu Le sat upright behind the jade table, glanced at the light mirror one last time, waved his hand to dispel the round light spell, and the light mirror immediately disappeared.
He had already seen the battle between the two armies clearly with the help of the Circular Light Technique.
He unconsciously reached out and tapped lightly on the jade table, recalling the scene he had just witnessed, a hint of suspicion rising in his heart.
Even with the combined efforts of Yuan Zhen and the Twenty-Eight Constellations, they were unable to defeat them, clearly indicating that this group of Taishan demons was quite powerful.
However, no matter how powerful these monsters were, they were ultimately no match for the strength of the Heavenly Court.
In order to subdue these rebellious demons as soon as possible, Hu Le immediately wrote another edict and sent it to Marshal Tianhe.
After receiving the imperial order, Marshal Tianhe immediately mustered 500,000 naval troops, who marched out of the Milky Way, passed through the South Heavenly Gate, and went directly to the battlefield, entering the Heavenly Court's camp.
When the Grand Marshal of Subduing Demons saw that Marshal Tianhe had come to his aid, he was not particularly happy.
In his view, with his strength, he would be able to defeat his opponent sooner or later, so why would he need help?
If Marshal Tianhe comes, won't he take away his military achievements?
However, since the man had come under orders from the Dongxuan Emperor, he couldn't refuse him entry. He could only force a smile and invite Marshal Tianhe into the camp...
The commotion at the Heavenly Court camp naturally did not escape the notice of the demon race.
Led by the demon saint Bai Ze, the group left the military tent and watched as a vast naval force approached from the horizon and entered the enemy camp.
Apart from Bai Ze, Ji Meng, and Ying Zhao, the rest of them were all heavy-hearted, hoping that the Great Sage Kui Long could return soon. Otherwise, if the enemy pressed on with all their might, they really had no confidence that they could defend the camp...
...
On the other side, the Great Sage Kuilong hurriedly descended from the prehistoric world, riding his escape light straight eastward.
Not long after, he arrived at a sacred mountain.
This mountain is called Shouyang Mountain. On the mountain is the Zifu Temple, where a Taoist master named Tongxuan lives. He is Tongxuan's teacher.
When Kui Long Dasheng arrived in front of the Taoist temple, he looked at the familiar scenery around him and suddenly felt a little uneasy.
In the past, when he descended the mountain after achieving success in his cultivation, the Taoist Master Tongxuan made it clear that the master-disciple relationship between the two had come to an end.
Therefore, the Taoist Master Tongxuan solemnly warned the Great Sage Kuilong that after he descended the mountain, he was not allowed to mention Kuilong's name to anyone else, nor was he allowed to return and disturb his cultivation...
