Slaying Demons: Starting with Upgrading my Calligraphy-Chapter 658 - 550: Descent! King of Dianchuan! (2)

First, there are as many as one hundred and thirty-seven Dao Embryos.

These Dao Embryos were not gathered randomly but deliberately collected as a foundation for the next Dao Embodiment.

Though the number one hundred and thirty-seven may not seem large, Qi Xiu indeed took a significant risk.

This Blood Lotus Great World is ultimately the Dao Alliance's backyard.

In theory, all Dao Embryos in this realm belong to the Dao Alliance, and taking them privately would be no small matter if the Dao Alliance were to pursue it.

Fortunately, Qi Xiu eradicated Zhao Baye's arrangements in the Blood Lotus Great World, swept away Demon Lotus and Zhao Siji, and took these hundred plus Dao Embryos, so the Dao Alliance turned a blind eye.

If he were greedy, and the Dao Alliance decided to count the cost, he'd likely lose even these hundred plus.

Secondly, there is the Karmic Fire Red Lotus Seed and the boundless, eternally relentless Red Lotus Karmic Fire raging now in Hunyuan Palace.

Though these two divine objects have made the Hunyuan Palace temporarily unusable,

they still serve as a trump card in his hand.

If faced with a strong enemy, he can directly call upon Hunyuan Palace to sweep the enemy into it, as he has Haotian Mirror to protect him, which renders the Red Lotus Karmic Fire powerless against him.

Others do not possess such divine weapons.

The Red Lotus Karmic Fire, as a Heaven and Earth Divine Fire, is of true Primordial Spirit level power.

Even a touch would burn a Dao Expert to death.

Besides the Dao Embryos and Karmic Fire Red Lotus Seed, the greatest gain from this Blood Lotus Great World journey is Xu Zhitian, who is playfully teasing Qi Sanhua beside him.

Xu Zhitian, known as the Flying Immortal Pot of legend, is an ancient existence comparable to the Shenxiao Sect's Guardian Divine Artefact, the Nine Heavens Shenxiao Thunder City.

While Xu Zhitian does not possess the terrifying destructive power that can intimidate Primordial Spirit True Honors like the Nine Heavens Shenxiao Thunder City,

his value, as an Alchemical Dao Divine Instrument, is entirely equal to that of the Nine Heavens Shenxiao Thunder City.

In some respects, he even surpasses it.

A hundred years, like a fleeting glance, passes quickly.

Unconsciously, while discussing an Ancient Medicine Pill Recipe with Xu Zhitian, Qi Xiu suddenly senses something and looks up towards the sky dome above.

On the sky dome constantly flowing with golden divine light, a very faint sound of shattering suddenly emanates.

The power of the Human Emperor's Edict has dissipated.

The hundred-year seal has come to an end.

At the moment the vast golden light dissipates, a seemingly inconspicuous black dot also falls, and with a flick of his large sleeve, Qi Xiu sends out an invisible vigor, swiftly sweeping it back.

It's precisely the Five-Colored Cloud Pattern Dragon Scroll Edict.

However, the grand aura of the Human Emperor previously enveloping it has now completely vanished.

Only the scroll remains intact.

"First-Rank Sacred Decree? You're fortunate. Although the imperial ink on this edict has been exhausted, if you can find imperial aura to replenish it, the characters may reappear.

The power of the edict may be restored.

But the imperial aura needed for a First-Rank Sacred Decree is extremely vast and difficult to gather."

Upon seeing the Five-Colored Cloud Pattern Dragon Scroll Edict in Qi Xiu's hand, Xu Zhitian gently reminds him.

However, Qi Xiu is too occupied to consider these things, casually putting away the scroll before taking out the Nine Heavens Shenxiao Imperial Thunder Command.

According to the original plan, Dongfang Qing would come to fetch him after locating the Flying Immortal Pot.

Unfortunately, the sect master has mysteriously disappeared, and it was a stranger who notified him through the Nine Heavens Shenxiao Imperial Thunder Command.

At this moment, he can only attempt to use the command to see if he can open the pathway to return to the Tianyuan Main Realm.

If unsuccessful, he must use the Longevity Star Realm Seal to travel to the Longevity Star Realm, and then detour back to the Tianyuan Main Realm.

Continuous streams of Primordial Qi injected into the command, flowing with dense purple-gold aura, terrifying thunder light emerges in the void.

Thundering sounds shake the four corners, reverberating through the void, exerting pressure on all things.

The commanding aura is mighty; is it the Lei City?

Feeling the overwhelming aura emitted by the Nine Heavens Shenxiao Imperial Thunder Command, Xu Zhitian's face shows reflection and a few grave looks.

"Rise!"

The brilliance of the command accumulated to its peak, Qi Xiu flicks it up. Ninety-nine Thunder Dao Law Seals continuously enter it.

Though he was merely a branch disciple, he had not practiced the sect's "Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Scripture".

Yet, with "Innate Thunder Dao Treasure Strategy" in hand, his mastery over the Thunder Path was no less than that of the "Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Scripture".

Accompanied by a multitude of Thunder Dao Law Seals entering the Treasure Order.

A golden-purple thunder light rose skyward with a thunderous eruption.

As the thunder light erupted, the clouds in the sky were torn apart, revealing a massive void.

Within this void, endless thunder lights cascaded down like a waterfall, covering the entire dome of the sky.

Under this overwhelming thunder, an ancient portal was forcibly opened.

This portal shimmered with mysterious lights all over, its edges wrapped in golden-purple lightning, resembling a gateway leading to an unknown world.

In the immense pressure akin to an abyss and sea, the portal slowly opened, vast and magnificent, within the bizarre ripples of divine light, familiar breaths emanated.

"It's the aura of the Tianyuan Main Realm..."

Sharply sensing that the aura coming from this thunder portal was indeed from the Tianyuan Main Realm, Qi Xiu felt calm in his heart, it seemed to have succeeded.

"Let's go, back home!"

With a flourish of his sleeve, Taiyin and Taiyang, Qi Sanhua and Hunyuan Sword Spirit were collected, Qi Xiu's robe billowing in the wind as he strode forward, entering the portal with Xu Zhitian without hesitation.

...

"This king has been waiting for so many days, is Sect Master Dongfang truly so busy that he won't even meet with me?"

Within Shenxiao Sect Gate, Sect Master Hall.

Gao Tianxiong, dressed in a red robe embroidered with gold dragon patterns, sat majestically on the throne, his broad brows and tiger eyes imposing. Opposite him, all the Peak Masters of Shenxiao Sect's Seventy-Two Spirit Peaks were present.

Gazing sternly at this self-proclaimed King of Dianchuan, Daoist Yunxiong took a deep breath and stepped forward, saying:

"Your highness, please forgive us. The Sect Master is in seclusion, and we do not know when he will emerge.

Perhaps your highness might return to your palace, and should the Sect Master exit seclusion, we will inform you immediately."

Facing Gao Tianxiong, who once schemed using the entire Dianchuan Province, planning his revival as a Primordial Spirit True Honor, Daoist Yunxiong and the others' expressions were as somber as could be.

The news of the Sect Master's disappearance had been tightly sealed by them at once.

Yet somehow, it had reached the ears of this King of Dianchuan.

And most hateful of all, was the traitor within the sect at this time, who leaked the Space-Bounding Records of Shenxiao Sect Gate to Gao Tianxiong, allowing him direct entry into Shenxiao Sect Gate.

Now with the Sect Master absent, the sudden arrival of this Primordial Spirit True Honor threw Shenxiao Sect into an irrecoverable crisis.

"Ha ha ha, this king has made such a hard journey, how could it be without gaining anything?

Since Sect Master Dongfang is busy, this king will simply wander around by myself."

As Gao Tianxiong slowly rose, a terrifying pressure emanating from a Primordial Spirit True Honor instantly swept through the entire Sect Master Hall.

In a snap of fingers, the True Monarch of the Dao Body of Shenxiao Sect felt an immense weight, as if the world was collapsing and mountains and seas were roaring, pressing them down firmly, unable to move.

Despicable!

Who would have thought Gao Tianxiong would be so brazen, Daoist Yunxiong and the others stared angrily, hearts filled with sorrow and frustration.

Only a Primordial Spirit True Honor can confront a Primordial Spirit True Honor.

Even if you are an exceptional True Monarch of the Dao Body, in the face of a Primordial Spirit True Honor, you are no different from an ant.

"Having weathered the Middle Ancient Era and the Near Ancient Era, surviving unchanged to this day, let this king see today."

A hint of divine light flickered in the depths of his eyes, Gao Tianxiong's thoughts moved slightly and an immense divine sense instantly enveloped Shenxiao Sect's entire mountain gate, capturing every corner in detail.

"It's here, indeed..."

A slight smirk appeared at Gao Tianxiong's mouth, as he turned slightly, looking in a certain direction outside the hall.

And when Daoist Yunxiong and others realized the direction Gao Tianxiong was looking, their faces became extremely unsightly.

They had initially thought Gao Tianxiong's purpose was the Sect's Guardian Divine Artifact Nine Heavens Shenxiao Thunder City.

But now it seems, his target was the headquarters of Hell Dao, one of the Ten Great Ancient Demonic Sects...

Hell Forest!
