115: The demon realm emerges, and the demonic calamity begins.
At this moment, within the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, all four immortal slaying swords had disappeared, leaving only the Immortal Slaying Array Diagram to maintain the sword formation.
The Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, already riddled with devastation from the explosions, saw its power drastically reduced.
Hongjun and Luo Hou lay miserably within the gates of the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.
However, looking at the situation, Hongjun was in much better shape than Luo Hou.
Luo Hou's body had been blown to pieces.
Although one could achieve Rebirth from a drop of blood at the Golden Immortal Realm, the lost Origin could not be recovered.
Luo Hou had been caught in the successive self-detonations of Hongjun's three corpses, causing a severe loss of his Origin.
Although Hongjun also suffered from a loss of Origin due to the self-detonation of his three corpses, along with the backlash from their explosions...
But he was protected by the chaos spirit treasure-grade jade disc of creation, so the damage he sustained from the explosions was countless times smaller.
"Cough, cough... Luo Hou, in the end, I am the superior one. In this Dao-Demon Conflict, I am the ultimate winner!"
Hongjun coughed so hard his internal organs were almost coming out, but as he looked at the unconscious Luo Hou, he wore the smile of a victor.
Luo Hou's injuries were truly too severe, and he had fallen directly into a coma.
"Cough, cough!"
Luo Hou coughed twice and slowly woke up; sensing his current state, his expression turned grim.
Seeing Hongjun's victorious smile, Luo Hou grew even more infuriated.
He, Luo Hou, had prepared for countless Yuanhui, yet he had actually lost!
"Old Thief Hongjun, do you think you've won?"
"I will not admit defeat so easily; the grudge between us has only just begun."
"Even if I die, I won't let you have it easy!"
Based on the principle that a mutual loss is better than a single winner, Luo Hou prepared to self-detonate without hesitation.
"Luo Hou, what are you doing? Stop quickly! we can talk this out!"
Seeing Luo Hou's actions, Hongjun panicked completely.
If he were hit by another self-detonation from Luo Hou, even if he became a Heavenly Dao Sage and merged with the Heavenly Dao...
...his autonomy would be greatly reduced, and who knows when he would be able to break free from the control of the Heavenly Dao.
This was not the outcome Hongjun wanted to see.
Even now, all his three corpses had self-detonated, and his Foundation had been damaged by those explosions.
Even if he merged with the Dao, it would be much worse than before, and his autonomy within the Heavenly Dao would become extremely poor.
Luo Hou, however, disregarded everything; since he couldn't defeat Hongjun, it was better for them both to lose.
"Great Dao above, the Heavenly Dao is unfair. Today, I, Luo Hou, am willing to self-detonate to transform into the Demon Realm."
"From now on, in the Honghuang, when the Dao rises a foot, the Demon rises a yard; when the Dao flourishes, the Demon wanes, and when the Dao wanes, the Demon flourishes!"
"The Sky Demons, Seven Emotions and Six Desires Demons, and Earth Demons of the Demon Race shall transform into the Heavenly Demon Tribulation, the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Tribulation, and the Earthly Demon Tribulation."
"Jidu of the Demon Race shall take charge of the Demon Realm."
"Let the Great Dao be my witness!"
Luo Hou's voice, as if drawn by some power, spread directly throughout the entire Honghuang.
"Boom!"
With a loud roar, the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation was completely blown away, and the Western Continent once again faced the bombardment of a Great Expert at the Peak of Hunyuan Golden Immortal.
Even though Hongjun promptly activated the jade disc of creation for defense, he was still sent flying because he was at the center of Luo Hou's self-detonation.
"Heavenly Dao, help me!"
In the final moment of consciousness, Hongjun hurriedly activated the last trump card within the jade disc of creation.
A surge of Power of the Heavenly Dao appeared, and after Hongjun fell into a deep slumber, he was taken away by the Power of the Heavenly Dao to parts unknown.
At the center of the explosion, the power of Luo Hou's self-detonation was guided by a strange force.
Beneath Mount Sumeru, at the junction of the Honghuang and the Chaos, a world named the Demon Realm was blasted into existence.
The Demon Realm operated by attaching itself to the Honghuang, becoming one of its subsidiary worlds.
The Myriad Demon Great Array also mysteriously disintegrated at this moment, and all members of the Demon Race were cast into the newly born Demon Realm.
Grand Elder Jidu of the Demon Sect took charge of the Demon Realm.
The Sky Demons, Earth Demons, and Seven Emotions and Six Desires Demons transformed into rule-like existences, lingering between the Demon Realm and the Honghuang.
From then on, any cultivator of the Immortal Dao in the Honghuang World would surely face the trials of the Sky Demons, Earth Demons, and Seven Emotions and Six Desires Demons whenever they advanced to a major Realm.
The countless all sentient beings of the primordial era: "Wait? You guys are fighting, what does that have to do with us?"
"we don't even have the right to watch the show, so how did we get dragged into this?"
This time, the countless all sentient beings of the primordial era truly became the clowns.
They were killed for no reason by a disaster falling from the sky.
Unlike the depression of the countless all sentient beings of the primordial era, the Three Pure Ones were extremely excited at this moment.
"we made a profit this time, we really made a huge profit."
After succeeding, Taiqing, who was fleeing toward the Central Continent, was incredibly happy.
As Taiqing said, they really had made a massive profit this time.
Not only did they get the twelve-grade world-destroying black lotus, but they also obtained the great killing weapon, the god slaying spear.
In the future, no matter what other Heavenly Dao Sages the Heavenly Dao produced, the Three Pure Ones and Twelve Ancestral Witches could easily deal with them.
Furthermore, their Third Brother had already secured all four immortal slaying swords in advance.
Although it was a pity they didn't get the Immortal Slaying Array Diagram...
...the situation at that time no longer allowed them to plot for it.
That map could only be planned for later.
While the Three Pure Ones were all in a good mood, Luo Hou's voice echoed from Mount Sumeru.
Hearing the oath Luo Hou made to the Great Dao, Taiqing wasn't surprised, as this was how things were supposed to develop according to the original trajectory.
The expressions of Yuqing Yuanshi and Shangqing Lingbao changed.
"Luo Hou, that sneaky bastard, even in death he creates such a mess."
"Isn't this just purely causing trouble for the all sentient beings of the primordial era?"
Yuqing Yuanshi was quite angry at Luo Hou for doing this.
"Second Brother is right. I wonder if this Demon Tribulation will affect us, the descendants of the father god?"
Shangqing Lingbao's primary concern was whether it would affect them.
"Second Brother and Third Brother, rest assured. This elder brother has calculated that this Demon Tribulation only targets beings below the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm."
"It has no effect on us, the descendants of the father god."
"Furthermore, this Demon Tribulation is actually a good thing for the Honghuang."
"With this Demon Tribulation, the state of mind of the all sentient beings of the primordial era will be greatly improved in the future."
"In the future, even if another Great Tribulation occurs, those lower-Realm beings won't lose control and engage in large-scale wanton slaughter as they did this time."
Taiqing explained what he knew about the Demon Tribulation, which relieved The Two Qings.
As long as it didn't affect them, the descendants of Father God Pangu, it was fine.
If it benefited the Honghuang World, then they would take back what they had just said about Luo Hou.
It could be considered that Luo Hou made some contribution to the Honghuang World.
Mount Sumeru was a mess; except for Reincarnation and Yang Mei, all the other experts who had come to help were in a sorry state.
When Luo Hou self-detonated, they were completely unprepared, as they were all fighting over those dozen or so Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures.
Under Luo Hou's self-detonation, although most of the power was guided to blast out the Demon Realm...
...they were still significantly affected.
Most importantly, the dozen or so Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures they were fighting for were all blown away by the force of Luo Hou's self-detonation.
These powerful experts didn't manage to get even a single one.
Even Reincarnation and Yang Mei were somewhat surprised that they hadn't obtained a single Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.
Whether by coincidence or guided by some unseen power, the location of those dozen or so Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures was precisely to the east of Mount Sumeru.
Propelled by the power of Luo Hou's explosion, they miraculously all flew toward the east and vanished.
"Damned Luo Hou, even in death he won't let us be, ruining our Opportunity!"
Each of the Great Experts at the Peak of Hunyuan Golden Immortal looked grim, all full of dissatisfaction toward Luo Hou.
