Under the encouragement of the demon saint Bai Ze, the demons were united in their efforts. Then, he took the opportunity to introduce Ji Meng and Ying Zhao to the great saint Kui Long and praised their supernatural powers to him.
The reason why Bai Ze summoned the two to secretly join Kui Long Da Sheng's forces was because Kui Long Da Sheng and his men were too weak. If they were to actually attack the Heavenly Court, they might be wiped out before even reaching the South Heavenly Gate.
That way, it wouldn't be causing trouble for Hu Le, but rather helping him build prestige.
Therefore, in order to make things more exciting for the Great Sage Kui Long and his group, the Demon Saint Bai Ze obtained an imperial decree from Emperor Jun to allow Ji Meng and Ying Zhao to join in and increase the strength of the Great Sage Kui Long's side.
While it might not be enough to overthrow the Heavenly Court, if it could allow the Great Sage Kui Long and his companions to hold out for a while longer, then this scheme wouldn't be considered a failure...
Upon hearing that the strategist had recruited two experts for him, the Great Sage Kuilong was immediately intrigued and hurriedly ordered the two to come in.
Next, Ji Meng and Ying Zhao used a little bit of their supernatural powers to subdue the demons. Kui Long Da Sheng felt as if he had found a treasure and treated the two as honored guests.
To welcome the two, the Great Sage Kuilong decided to throw a grand banquet. After the celebration, everyone was quite drunk.
After the banquet, the Great Sage Kuilong ordered them to return and hasten to gather their troops in preparation for a formal rebellion against Heaven.
The crowd roared as they returned, immediately mustering all their forces. In the end, they amassed hundreds of thousands of troops and, led by the Great Sage Kuilong, marched in a mighty force toward the Southern Heavenly Gate.
Kui Long Da Sheng and his entourage made a great show of force, immediately attracting the attention of many people.
Seeing them holding weapons and flying towards the Heavenly Court with murderous intent, everyone was dumbfounded.
"What...what are these demons trying to do? Rebel? Have they gone mad?" Some cultivators were shocked when they saw this scene.
Seeing this, some demons who thrive on chaos all burst into laughter.
"Hahaha... My demon race's fine sons! Truly ambitious! Well done! It would be best if they could break through the Heavenly Court and overturn that old Heavenly Emperor's throne..."
...
Before the Great Sage Kuilong and his companions had even passed through the layer of gale-force winds, thunder, and fire, the Heavenly Court had already received the news.
When the immortals and gods found out, they were all astonished.
Since Taiyi became the Heavenly Emperor and established the Heavenly Court, he has suppressed the primordial world for countless years. Perhaps some people did not obey the rule of the Heavenly Court, and some people once declared themselves rulers, wanting to challenge the Heavenly Court.
But no matter what, no one ever got beaten up at their door.
When the news finally reached Hu Le, he also began to question the meaning of life.
Are these demons insane? Or are they just stupid?
"Audacious" is not even an adequate description of their actions.
Has this been a collective lapse in judgment?
Have they become arrogant, or do they think the Heavenly Court is no longer capable of wielding its sword? Do they really believe that the Heavenly Court has ruled the primordial world for billions of years solely through benevolence and morality?
Little did they know that over countless years, the corpses of all the forces and races destroyed by the Heavenly Court would be enough to rebuild Mount Zhou...
However, his face then flushed crimson, and he became unusually angry.
He's only been in charge of the Heavenly Court for a short time! And yet, someone dares to come knocking on his door.
What are they trying to do? Are they planning to embarrass him?
That's absolutely unforgivable!
This was the first time he had ever been so angry since he had achieved success in his spiritual practice.
"Summon them! Summon the Grand Marshal of Subduing Demons!" Hu Le suppressed his anger and loudly gave the order.
Before long, the Grand Marshal of Subduing Demons rushed over.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
"You should already know what happened." Since they were practically coming to their door, Hu Le didn't mince words and went straight to the point.
"Yes, I heard that the demons of Mount Tai have rebelled and are about to attack."
Even the Grand Marshal of Demon Subduing felt his own words were absurd. These little demons were utterly clueless! How dare they do such a thing? Did they really think the Heavenly Court was made of paper and could be torn at a touch?
However, when someone offered him a medal, he happily accepted it...
"Well, it's good that you know! Go and gather your men and kill them all. I will arrange for the Twenty-Eight Constellations to lend you a hand."
"Remember, you must capture them all in one fell swoop," Hu Le ordered.
"Yes, sir!"
The Grand Marshal of Subduing Demons agreed, and a murderous aura suddenly rose from his body.
Hu Le was satisfied with his attitude, so he waved for him to leave.
After the Grand Marshal of Subduing Demons left, Hu Le personally wrote a transfer order and sent someone to the Star Palace to relay the order, summoning the Twenty-Eight Constellations to assist in the battle.
These twenty-eight constellations are all quite powerful, and with their help, it should be enough to capture the demon race...
The Grand Marshal of Subduing Demons hastily mobilized a million heavenly soldiers and generals, who set up a battle formation outside the South Heavenly Gate. The Twenty-Eight Constellations also arrived quickly and joined the formation.
In an instant, the murderous aura of the entire Heavenly Court condensed into clouds, blotting out the sun and sky, soaring straight to the Dipper and the Ox. For a moment, the sun and moon lost their light, the stars dimmed, and the vast sky changed color.
"Set off!"
At the command of the Grand Marshal Subduing Demons, the soldiers, fully armored and armed with swords and spears, marched down from the heavens with great pride and high spirits.
Soon after, the two sides met above the Gale Wind Thunder Fire layer and formed a standoff.
The two commanders stepped forward, exchanged a heated debate, and then, having nothing more to say, began to fight.
Both sides left their rear guard to hold the line, while the central and vanguard forces formed a battle formation and clashed together with a thunderous roar.
In an instant, the world changed color, and blood filled the sky. The sounds of battle and shouts shook the universe.
The heavenly soldiers and generals were incredibly brave, while the demons of Mount Tai fought fearlessly. The two sides clashed fiercely, both suffering heavy casualties.
The Demon-Subduing Grand Marshal faced off against the Great Sage Kui Long.
Although this Great Sage Kuilong is not very bright, his supernatural powers and magic are no less than those of Yuan Zhen, the Great Marshal of Fumo.
The two sides engaged in fierce combat, and for a time they were evenly matched, with neither side able to gain the upper hand.
As for the Twenty-Eight Constellations, they were initially able to wreak havoc in the demon race's formation, but in the end, the Demon Saint Bai Ze couldn't stand it anymore and called on Ji Meng and Ying Zhao. The three of them went up together to take over the Twenty-Eight Constellations' offensive.
Speaking of which, although these three demon saints have not yet reached the Great Luo realm, their strength is still among the top in the entire demon race.
If they were to go all out, any one of them could easily suppress the Twenty-Eight Constellations.
Unfortunately, he came here in disguise, so how could he be wholeheartedly serving the Great Sage Kuilong?
Moreover, in order to conceal their identities, they couldn't appear too powerful, otherwise, not only would the Heavenly Court's forces be suspicious, but even the most dull-witted Great Sage Kui Long would doubt their identities...
Even if they were just going through the motions, the three of them working together still managed to overwhelm the entire group of the Twenty-Eight Constellations.
However, Ji Meng soon discovered that the demons of Mount Tai were gradually showing signs of weakness under the attack of the heavenly soldiers and generals.
He came on Di Jun's orders, so of course he wouldn't let the Taishan demons be defeated too quickly.
"I'll leave this place to you guys. I'm going to help out the younger ones!"
After Ji Meng transmitted his thoughts to the two of them, he easily broke free from the entanglement of the Twenty-Eight Constellations and charged towards the heavenly soldiers and generals...
