Chapter 250: The Battle of the Pangu Realm
Stay tuned for updates on My Virtual Library Empire
(This chapter is dedicated to Danran from the "Great Demon Sun Wukong" group—not for any particular reason, but simply because the number of this chapter suits him well!)
Since these two individuals still appeared in human form, their demonic identities were not apparent; however, the Demon Qi emanating from them confirmed that they were indeed from the Demon Clan.
No sooner had these two appeared in the Pangu Realm than a person seated upon the dragon throne within Heaven's Lingxiao Palace furrowed his brow, ceased his current activity, and turned to an old man in a Taoist robe beside him, "Old Monkey, I need to step out for a bit, leaving you in charge here!" With these words, the person's back sprouted three pairs of fiery wings.
With a flap of those wings, he had vanished from the spot.
The one addressed as Old Monkey sighed, then took a seat on the dragon throne to continue the work that the departed had left unfinished.
Almost at the same time, atop Flower Fruit Mountain in East Shengzhou, a woman dressed in green robes also knit her brows slightly, conjured several juicy peaches, and handed them out to the little monkeys around her before she leaped lightly into the air, riding the clouds away.
In the Pangu Realm's Extreme Northern Icy Sea, within a Crystal Palace, a handsome young man with silver hair sensed something too. He turned to a burly man next to him and said, "Elder Zhu Long, please manage things here for a while. I need to go out." Having said that, he transformed into a small silver dragon and soared towards the sea's surface.
Zhu Long carefully investigated but found nothing, so he shook his head helplessly and glanced at a woman sitting at the Formation Eye of a Great Formation who, although unconscious, remained in a lotus position. Her beauty was astonishing, incomparable even to the fairies of Heaven.
"You two, go and relieve them. Everyone else, continue the effort to force that evil woman out," Zhu Long commanded, and the individuals at the six points of the Great Formation nodded almost imperceptibly, understanding the critical nature of the situation where no oversight could be tolerated.
Meanwhile, in an icy prison in the same Extreme Northern Icy Sea, two Daoists were sealed. The Seal was extraordinarily peculiar, composed of extreme cold Mysterious Ice that completely encased the two, followed by numerous branches and vines that wrapped around the ice layer. Surrounding the vines, nine Flame Golden Crows, each positioned in different directions, stood guard over the encased pair.
Even so, at a certain moment which coincided with the arrival of the two transformed demons in the Pangu Realm, the fingers of the sealed individuals twitched ever so slightly.
The focus returned to the two demons. As soon as they arrived, they felt a familiar aura from a certain location in the far north of the Pangu Realm, and one of them said, "It seems that in this small world, there are members of our own Clan, and they also possess Half-step Great Path strength. However, it feels like they're under some kind of Seal?"
Before the other could reply, a sly grin spread across his face. Just then, the space around them rippled, and suddenly, three figures—two men and one woman—appeared out of nowhere. The leader, clad in a fiery-red dragon robe, was handsome and robust, with the build of a bear and the back of a tiger.
The other man, by contrast, was much thinner, yet he seemed strong in the silver Armor he wore. As for the woman, she was barefoot, and as her hands moved through the air, peach blossoms bloomed from nowhere.
"Who are you, and why do you intrude upon the Pangu Realm uninvited?" demanded the man in the dragon robe, exuding an authoritative and domineering presence. Feeling the might of this man, who possessed the Realm of Unity Dao, the two newcomers were taken aback. What was happening?
Wasn't it said that the Pangu Realm was a minor world, allowing only those below the Half-step Great Path Realm to exist here? Then why was this man exhibiting the power of Unity Dao? His strength was nearly on par with theirs.
Beyond that, the other man and woman were both at the peak of the Great Dao Saint Realm—a half-step away from also ascending to Unity Dao. Had the Pangu Realm advanced to an Intermediate World? How could that be? How could such a small world be of an Intermediate Level?
Despite their confusion, the two exchanged glances, realizing that something had changed in the Pangu Realm; it was impossible for a Unity Dao Realm powerhouse to appear out of nowhere. When asked by the dragon-robed figure, one of them chuckled mischievously, "We are from a Great Realm, and we've recently sensed someone in this lesser world breaking through to the Saint of the Great Dao Realm.
Hence, our Domain Lord has sent us to assist you in traveling to the Great Realm for Cultivation, to break through to even higher levels!"
Seeing the attire and aura of the two individuals, the person clad in the dragon robe let out a cold sneer, "People from the great worlds, still need to disguise their strength as belonging to the Half-step Great Path? To respond and lead us to the great world? What a joke. If you still have some self-awareness, go back where you came from; otherwise, you'll never be able to leave again!"
Having said that, he crossed his hands behind his back, and his true power suddenly exploded, a frenzied, explosive aura combined with an air of domination swept out instantly. At the same time, the handsome young man in silver armor also glared, and with his aura in tandem with the man in the dragon robe, they actually pushed the two individuals back three steps.
As the two were still in shock, they suddenly felt a tickle on their shoulders and turned their heads to see a peach blossom that had appeared on their left shoulder out of nowhere. Moreover, the peach blossom was slowly blooming. As the blossom unfolded, streams of pure spiritual power were absorbed by the two flowers.
The surprise in their hearts was beyond words. They had thought the task would be extremely easy, but they hadn't expected the opponent's strength to be so formidable and absolutely non-negotiable.
If it had been according to their original conjecture, with the strength of their Unity Dao Realm, they were like omnipotent deities in this minor world, and probably even combining the entire world's power wouldn't be a match for them.
Not to mention capturing a few people, even annihilating this entire world wouldn't be a difficult task! But now, bizarrely, there appeared someone from the same Unity Dao Realm in this minor world.
Although in terms of strength, even a one-on-one fight, this person was likely not a match for either of them, the fatal problem was that their strength was currently only at the Half-step Great Path, and though their realm remained, their combat power was truly of the Half-step Great Path.
Fortunately, the three did not kill them outright but used their aura to intimidate as a warning. However, this warning seemed like a naked insult in the eyes of the two. In the eyes of those from the Intermediate World, a minor world like the Pangu Realm was hardly worth mentioning.
And in front of the people from a minor world, they always felt superior, like a higher being looking down on an inferior one.
Yet now, they were intimidated by what they considered inferior beings, which was more unbearable than being killed outright. Although the one in the dragon robe was also of the Unity Dao, it was clear that he had only recently advanced and was insufficiently grounded. Compared to the two of them, he was lacking by a lot.
Not to mention that the other two were merely Saints of the Great Dao, hardly worth mentioning.
Therefore, the two of them nodded to each other secretly and then suddenly roared. In the roar, they broke through the bindings with tremendous spiritual power and instantly raised their strength to the Peak of Unity Dao. They did not care about the impact on their strength from forcibly breaking the binding.
Even if the sea's water were reduced by one-tenth, it would still be many times broader than a pond.
As the two roared, the three also changed in complexion, already aware of the two's intentions. "Fan Xin, step back and get ready to connect the consciousness. Little White Dragon, one each, any problems?"
"Haha, of course no problem, Second Senior Brother, shall we see who can take down their opponent first?"
"Afraid you can't keep up? Whoever loses has to be the Jade Emperor for a year!"
After speaking, he reached into the air and grabbed, a Nine-Toothed Rake burning with vermillion flames was already in his hand!
"Today, I will let you see the rage of your Uncle Pig!"
