Above the Great Dao-Chapter 1495 - 695: Demon Seed

"Are they also here to seek the Nine Emperors of Great Shang?"

Chen Shi looked over, and suddenly the young man's gaze swept over, razor-sharp, meeting Chen Shi's eyes. Chen Shi immediately felt the world around him change drastically, countless heart demons materializing and standing around him!

Surrounded by a horde of demons, ready to take his life at any moment!

"He has even more demonic nature than I do?"

Chen Shi's heart demons danced wildly; he immediately activated the Mixed Yuan Infinite Innate Skill, blending his Dao Heart with the Mixed Yuan, integrating them into one. The heart demons vanished instantly, and his mind returned to clarity.

Since he had mastered the Profound Yin Nine Heavens Technique, his demon path expertise had been growing stronger. Among all the people he had encountered, there was almost no one with a heavier demonic nature than his own.

This young man was the first to surpass him in demon path expertise.

However, he balanced the demon path with the Mixed Yuan Infinite Innate Skill, making the demon path just one of the Daos he mastered, never affecting his mind. But this young man exposed his demonic nature entirely, appearing extremely domineering.

"This person is courting death." Chen Shi evaluated in his heart.

Little Dun stood next to Chen Shi, also meeting the young man's gaze, but the young man did not deliberately target her, only brushing her with his peripheral vision.

Yet even that peripheral glance caused her heart demons to arise, but in the next instant, a blazing fire ignited in her Sea of Consciousness, instantaneously refining the heart demons entirely, leaving only the Mysterious Bird soaring in the sky of her Sea of Consciousness, refining it to an incomparably clear state.

The Royal Family of Great Shang's bloodline Dao Power was indeed too strong; the Mysterious Bird's refinement made her Dao Heart constantly as bright as day, without a speck of dust.

The young man was also quite surprised and looked over again, seemingly shocked that the two of them could free themselves from the heart demon state.

The demon dao immortals beside him noticed this, and one asked, "Master, what's the matter?"

The young man said, "Those two are quite extraordinary; they've escaped from my Heart Demon Technique. Especially that young man, his demon path expertise is high. Although he's a True Immortal, such Daoist practice is truly transcendent."

The demon dao immortals were all amazed, each looking at Chen Shi with doubt, "Besides us, there are actually others cultivating the demon path?"

An old man among them said, "Could it be a reincarnated demon path master?"

The young man said, "Very likely."

He appeared puzzled, "Daoist Wencheng said that the demon path masters of this world are all under his command; how can there be another demon path master?"

The old man said, "I'll go and capture him! For this expedition into the Great Xia Garrison, we need some expendables to test the path!"

The young man shook his head, "Ning Gongfu, do not create additional complications. Our target this time is only one: the Nine Emperors of Great Shang. I sense that this dangerous place, combined with the rage of genocide, has refined the Nine Emperors of Great Shang to be like the Demon Emperor!"

He smiled slightly, "The Nine Emperors have no physical body, they are rootless duckweed, perfectly suited for my use. By devouring them and combining the cultivation of the nine great Demon Emperors, this Huaxia Ancestral Land will be within my grasp. What Heavenly Court dao lineage, what origin of all immortals, what Three Pure Ones and Four Imperial Lords, none are my match!"

The many demon path masters following him were filled with burning fervor.

This master was named Kun Dulun, brought by Ning Gongfu from the Earth Immortal Realm to the Ancestral Court. At that time, Xi Muran had handed him to Ning Gongfu, when Kun Dulun was still an inexperienced youth with low cultivation, not yet an Immortal.

He practiced the demon path, somewhat similar to Ning Gongfu. Ning Gongfu was also an immortal who ascended from the Ancestral Court, and when he was inspected at Han Valley Pass in the Earth Immortal Realm, he claimed Kun Dulun was his disciple, getting through by deception.

Immortal Wencheng received them at Han Valley Pass in the Ancestral Court; they were inspected again, and Immortal Wencheng released Kun Dulun's seal. Kun Dulun absorbed the demon qi between heaven and earth, creating outer dao pollution and demon path erosion, instantly causing casualties at Han Valley Pass!

After this battle, Kun Dulun absorbed the cultivation of the immortals at Han Valley Pass, causing his own cultivation to skyrocket, becoming a Golden Immortal on the spot!

Ning Gongfu was shocked, realizing only then that the little cultivator he brought to the Ancestral Court was actually a demon seed born from an abnormal point of the Great Dao, renowned far and wide!

Immortal Wencheng had laid out his plans 800 years prior, all to stir public resentment in the Ancestral Court, fostering demon qi between heaven and earth for nurturing Kun Dulun. The demon transformation at Han Valley Pass was just a small test of his skills.

Immortal Wencheng took them to Jiandu, where they met Tiancong Khan, who acknowledged Kun Dulun as his master, and waged war against Great Shun.

Kun Dulun led the Jiandu Demon Army, invincible in battle, quickly breaking through Shanhai Pass, advancing to the Central Plains, unleashing bloodshed and devastation, further enhancing the demon qi between heaven and earth.

His cultivation also reached the verge of the Taiyi Golden Immortal.

Upon reaching Shandong, they encountered the grand army of Great Shun's famed generals Li Yan and Liu Zongmin. Li and Liu set up the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation and the Ten Thousand Miles Yellow Sand Formation, also inviting all gods for assistance, halting the Jiandu Demon Army's advance.

Kun Dulun personally took action, facing Daoist Xiao Tian from the family of Immortal Master Erlang. Daoist Xiao Tian was exceedingly powerful, battling Kun Dulun for three hundred rounds without a victor. Suddenly, he summoned a black dog, which bit Kun Dulun, causing his defeat and retreat.

Kun Dulun conceded he was no match for Daoist Xiao Tian, and with Immortal Wencheng nowhere to be seen, he led these demon immortals to infiltrate Dezhou, arriving at the White Stone Ancient City, seeking the Nine Emperors of Great Shang.

"Husband, I have sensed the location of the Nine Emperors!"

Little Dun said joyously, "The ancestors have responded to my summons, but it is very faint!"

Chen Shi also felt a subtle warmth emerging in the White Stone Ancient City, the fire dao power in the air becoming more lively, while the demon qi and resentment grew gradually more intense.

More terrifying was the ominous aura from an unknown source, causing Chen Shi's skin surface pores to contract, hair standing on end. Without a second thought, he enhanced his cultivation to its peak state!
