"Are you the master of Miss Xiaodie?" the Supreme Lord of Morality asked in a deep voice, having regained his senses. He seemed unconcerned about Li Daoyi's sarcastic remarks.
"Not bad." Li Daoyi nodded.
"Does Fellow Daoist really have a way to save us?" Nuwa asked.
Li Daoyi shook his head slightly.
Everyone's hearts sank.
“Actually, I didn’t intend to save you at first. I only came to save the Eight Immortals,” Li Daoyi said with a smile.
"The Eight Immortals?" the Jade Emperor, who had been silent, exclaimed in surprise. The others were also taken aback; to them, the Eight Immortals were just a few very ordinary immortals.
“I owe Lü Dongbin a favor,” Li Daoyi replied.
“Of course, after learning that only a few hundred of you survived, I changed my mind. I figured I might as well save you as well,” Li Daoyi said, shrugging his shoulders.
Upon hearing this, the group's expressions immediately turned extremely awkward. The other party had actually treated them like male prostitutes. However, since they still needed something from Li Daoyi, they naturally dared not express their dissatisfaction.
"Fellow Daoist, that demon is extremely strange and can ignore the laws and all Dao techniques. Are you really confident that you can deal with it?" Nuwa asked again.
Li Daoyi sized up Nuwa. This Nuwa was somewhat different from the one in the previous Investiture of the Gods world. Her brows revealed a hint of arrogance, clearly indicating that she was a very self-centered person.
Nuwa suppressed her anger at Li Daoyi's rude stare. She had always been a high and mighty sage. However, she had been imprisoned here for twenty years. Her heart had been heavy with suppressed rage for a long time, and seeing Li Daoyi looking at her like this, though she was furious, she still held back.
Li Daoyi withdrew his gaze. He had naturally seen the anger in Nuwa's eyes, but he ignored it and did not answer Nuwa's question.
Then Li Daoyi looked at Tathagata, who was now standing with his hands clasped together, looking compassionate. The moment their eyes met, Tathagata smiled and nodded at Li Daoyi.
“Shakyamuni Buddha,” Li Daoyi said.
"It is indeed this humble monk," the Buddha said, referring to himself with great humility.
"You are truly capable of both yielding and standing firm. It was no accident that Wutian was defeated by you." Li Daoyi smiled.
Upon hearing Wutian's name, the group was immediately shocked. Tathagata's face stiffened as he stared at Li Daoyi in astonishment.
“You…you…the person Wutian is talking about is you,” Tathagata murmured.
“It should be me. He’s a good friend of mine,” Li Daoyi replied.
The Buddha's face immediately darkened, and he loosened his clasped hands.
"Does Your Excellency wish to avenge him?" Buddha asked in a deep voice.
The others also looked at Li Daoyi with great unease, as everyone present had been involved in Wutian's affair.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you. Since it's his revenge, he can take it on himself."
After saying that, Li Daoyi waved his hand at the cage, and the cage opened directly.
After doing all this, ignoring the still-dazed group, Li Daoyi turned and walked outside. Qi Yu quickly followed, while Mengmeng made a face at them and ran after them.
Just as the group was stunned, a powerful aura erupted from outside, followed by an angry voice.
"Who dares to be so bold?"
It was that evil god; he sensed the cage being destroyed immediately.
Li Daoyi and his group went outside. By then, the disgusting monsters around them had become restless, and they became even more excited when the group appeared.
"Those guys down there are yours," Li Daoyi said.
“Okay.” Saitama twisted his arm.
The six people, including the Celestial Venerable of Morality, also came out at this time. When they saw the monsters below, they frowned and secretly felt that Li Daoyi had been too impulsive and had directly exposed himself.
"boom..."
Suddenly, a thick black mist flew in from afar, and the monsters all lay down as if in submission.
The black mist flew over and gradually transformed into a human figure, which was none other than the Demon God.
Upon seeing the demon god who looked exactly like Wutian, Li Daoyi narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Huh?" The Demon God also looked at these unfamiliar faces with some confusion.
"Who are you?"
“Ugly fellow, it seems even you despise your own ugliness, which is why you took over Wutian’s body,” Li Daoyi laughed.
"Wu Tian? It's you. You're the one he's been longing for?" The Demon God was somewhat surprised.
"good."
"Hahaha, I was just wondering how to find you, but you delivered yourself right to my doorstep," the demon god laughed wildly.
After speaking, his aura suddenly increased, and a hideous and terrifying demon god phantom appeared behind him, so ugly that it was outrageous. Immediately afterwards, Li Daoyi sensed that the magic power in his body was being absorbed by some kind of energy.
"No matter who you are, there's only one outcome for coming here: death. Hahaha, your magic is useless against me." The demon god was extremely arrogant, and then his aura became even stronger. The strange energy emanating from his body absorbed Li Daoyi's magic power even more rapidly.
"It's over," Lingbao Tianzun said with a wry smile.
They could naturally sense that power absorbing Li Daoyi's magic power, after all, that's how they were unknowingly drained back then.
"Interesting." Li Dao remained expressionless as he walked step by step through the air toward the demon god not far away.
With each step he took, his aura increased. Seeing that the other party seemed unaffected by the energy he had absorbed, the demon god couldn't help but frown.
"boom..."
A huge figure suddenly appeared behind Li Daoyi.
The sky over the Demon Realm changed accordingly; the originally black sky became colorful.
"This...this...this is an aura that surpasses even that of a saint." The Celestial Venerable of Morality said in shock. The others also became numb, looking at Li Daoyi's back with awe.
"Eeya?" Mengmeng looked at the phantom that appeared behind Li Daoyi with a surprised expression. This was the third time she had seen this figure, and for some reason, the little girl felt that she was very familiar with it.
"I need to stretch my muscles too," Saitama said with a smile. He then jumped down and threw a punch directly at the ground below.
"Boom..." The two giant beasts were instantly destroyed.
"Boom boom..."
A series of loud noises rang out, but the Demon God seemed unconcerned, staring intently at Li Daoyi. He continued to absorb the other's magical power, but the other seemed to be a bottomless pit.
"You say you're not afraid of Taoist magic?" Li Daoyi said.
The demon god did not answer. Instead, his body trembled, and the demon god phantom behind him instantly expanded. Then, a black energy emanated from the phantom, transforming into a giant demon claw that reached out to grab Li Daoyi.
Li Daoyi neither dodged nor avoided the attack, but instead gave a cold laugh. The illusory figure behind him gradually solidified, revealing a very handsome young man who appeared to be in his early twenties.
The young man's illusory figure smiled slightly, just like Li Daoyi.
He transformed into a Qilin.
A voice rang out, seemingly from ancient times, evoking the traces of a desolate era.
"roar..."
A huge golden phantom of a Qilin instantly appeared in front of Li Daoyi. The Qilin phantom roared at the front, and the black energy that attacked immediately vanished.
"How is this possible?" the demon god exclaimed in shock.
Before he could react, Li Dao made a hand seal, and the phantom behind him also made a hand seal at the same time.
Immediately afterwards, a powerful pressure appeared in the sky, and everyone couldn't help but look up.
A gigantic arm appeared in the sky above the Demon Realm, emerging from the clouds and pressing its palm down on the demon god below, seemingly in response to the demonic hand attack he had just used against Li Daoyi.
"The Hand of Heaven," Li Daoyi and the phantom behind him said simultaneously.
"Don't even think about it!" the demon god roared, his body instantly turning into a vast expanse of darkness. Then, a gigantic arm emerged from the darkness, reaching out to grab the hand of heaven in the air.
"Heavenly Demon Hand".
"boom..."
The two hands clashed, producing a deafening roar that shook the very air.
"Rumble..."
The sky turned crimson, like the sunset.
The demon god floated silently in the air, motionless.
"Pfft." Suddenly, a mouthful of black blood spurted from its mouth.
"This body is ultimately not my own," the demon god said, turning to look at Li Daoyi.
"You're only realizing this now?" Li Daoyi said with a smile.
"You're strange. This doesn't seem to be your own ability," the Demon God said calmly.
"Hmm, this is my ability to be used by me." Li Daoyi looked up at the illusory figure behind him.
"Huh?" Li Daoyi looked at the phantom behind him with a hint of doubt. The phantom seemed to have its own consciousness, and its gaze was actually looking to the other side. Li Daoyi followed its gaze and saw that it was the entrance to an underground palace. A small figure was sneaking in like a dog. It was Mengmeng.
"Junior Sister." The illusory figure revealed a smile.
"Stop!" The demon god also noticed Mengmeng and roared as he was about to rush down.
"Whoosh..." Li Daoyi instantly blocked his way.
"continue."
“You…” The demon god was furious.
At the same time, Mengmeng arrived at the place where the Demon God had absorbed the Heart of Pangu. The little guy looked at the huge crystal-like heart that was suspended in mid-air and imprisoned, and his saliva immediately started flowing.
"Slurp..."
The little guy swallowed hard, looked back, then turned to look at the Heart of Pangu. He looked very conflicted, like a child who had found a favorite snack and wanted to sneak a bite but was afraid of being caught by the adults. He was so tempted.
