  Tian’er was Tian Mo Concubine’s childhood name that the others didn’t know, but the Demon Queen was someone who did.

  Tian Mo Concubine then answered with a smile, “We women live on our own just like every other man out there, why do we need to rely on these ugly men? I believe that this world could have a few lady demon gods, Yun’er, what do you think?”

  Yun’er, Demon Queen’s childhood name. It was a huge event when the eight saint clans were selecting the Demon Queen and demon concubines for Demon Saint, the ladies knew each other fairly well. After all, they had gone through a series of fights and schemes to end up as the eight demon concubines, or even the Demon Queen.

  Demon Queen have called her by her childhood name and she called back the same, this was a verbal fight between them.

  Demon Queen smiled, andsaid leisurely, “Tian’er, you are still as naughty now as you were then, full of wild ambitions. However, the Demon Saint is the son of the heaven, he is destined to unite the Eighth Barren once again, sit on the throne as the Demon Lord and the Ancestral Star will be in his grasp. I know you have wild ambitions, you told the world that Mister Mo Luo have forcibly taken you down but in truth, you and this Mo Luo have come together as a team to go against the Demon Saint. Tian’er, if you ignore my advice again, you will only end up as an oblation on the altar.”

  “Our goals are different, and so our paths differed. You want to stay the Demon Queen and be the one queen to the world, but I wish to conquer the world with my own prowess!” Tian Mo Concubine chuckled, “Yun’er, it’s been a long time since we fought, hasn’t it? Today is such a nice day, why don’t we compete for awhile? Let little sister have a look at what improvements you have made while following around the Demon Saint, other than your skills in bed!”

  Demon Queen raised her brows in surprise, she smiled tenderly and said, “I know you have your own little plans, hiding your prowess away, and you didn’t even go all out during the selections. If only you have contended with me for the place of the Demon Queen, your prowess would long be beyond mine by now. Yet, you gave up the spot of the Demon Queen to me, and now, challenging me again will only cause your death.”

  Tian Mo Concubine rose into the air, and she then pounced over at the Demon Queen. The surroundings turned into a sea of Yu Lan Flowers, the lady’s blouse fluttered above the flowers and she said with all smiles, “Yun’er, seems like sleeping with the Demon Saint has given you a sense of superiority!”

  Demon Queen swung her sleeves and also moved toward Tian Mo Concubine, replying placidly, “It’s not that I’ve a sense of superiority, but the Demon Saint have taught me a lot of skills and arts, pointing out the ways of cultivation to me and allowed me to stay above the others. Else, how do you think I can be the queen that manages his concubines and ladies? All the things he taught me are exactly meant to suppress naughty girls like you, Tian’er!”

  The two ladies were the most noble women in the Eighth Barren demon race, and now, they were filled with killing intent, going all out against one another!

  The two ladies fought in a death battle, but unlike the ordinary battles, they seemed to be duo-waltzing with their beautiful skills on display around them.

  The more peaceful it looked, the more dangerous it was!

  The cultivation techniques they practiced were god-level techniques, they were the most intelligent women in the Eighth Barren. Hidden within the beautiful-looking skills were deadly blows, the slightest moment of inattention would lead to death.

  Ji Xiang Concubine, Saint Concubine, and the other concubines stood outside of the battlefield and watched them. Among the eight concubines, Saint Concubine of the Asura Saint Clan was said to be the strongest, her arcane energy was strong and thick and with her around, the other demon concubines dared not act rashly.

  Meanwhile, thirty miles away from them, Demon Saint opened his hand and the emerald leaf flew into his palm, shrinking to the size of an ordinary leaf while hovering there.

  At the same time, disordered and complex totem patterns were fusing with one another in Zhong Yue’s psyche ocean, his aura turned unstable, fluctuating between strong and weak, celestial and demon, all sorts of changes were taking place, and his aura was in a state of chaos.

  Demon Saint walked over, he was surprised at Zhong Yue’s state and he then said leisurely, “Ah, so Mister Mo Luo is cultivating. You’ve challenged me and yet, you are now preparing yourself. It seems like you’ve seen me battle with Shura and you’ve thought, ‘Ah, I’m can’t best him’, and so, here you are, trying to gain another breakthrough in prowess before the battle.”

  Zhong Yue’s chaotic aura felt like countless stars and planets ramming into one another. He couldn’t stabilize them, as each time they clashed, his arcane energy would plunge into disorder and the totem patterns in his psyche ocean were still messed up.

  However, just as Demon Saint stepped onto the mountain top, his aura stopped changing. A sun had emerged in the center of the stars and the order of the universe was restored as the stars were now orbiting around the sun.

  Zhong Yue opened his eyes and looked over at Demon Saint, complimenting the other in his heart.

  The Demon Saint was an outstanding man. The mortal body he had possessed was Yan Moluo’s; it had green skin, a dreadful appearance, and looked like a demon among the demons. However, as the Demon Saint had possessed his new mortal body, he had changed the mortal body to better suit to himself.

  Green became gold, his stature turned more slender and muscles more well-proportioned.

  The dreadful appearance of the Yan Luo Saint Race had changed into an unworldly air. One had to be honest, Demon Saint had the air of a convincing leader. Standing there just by himself, he could convince the demons to join with him, and any thoughts of rebellion would be eradicated right in front of him.

  Yet, Zhong Yue knew that Demon Saint wasn’t the wise and sagacious leader he appeared to be. In fact, the days of his reign were the darkest days of the demon race! He was just a licentious and overbearing leader!

  “Demon Saint.” Zhong Yue greeted him.

  Demon Saint looked at him and was shocked. He said curiously, “You are not a revived god, and are not even a demon! Strange, how can you cultivate the demon cultivation technique? Oh, there is also the air of the celestials about you, are you a celestial? No, no, you are not a pure celestial…”

  He was perspicacious, in just a few seconds he saw through Zhong Yue’s false appearance, but not his origin.

  Zhong Yue smiled gently as he said, “Demon Saint, does my race matter? Shall we?”

  Demon Saint was laughing, he answered calmly, “Indeed it is not, you are meant to die and so what does it matter? Such a young age and you’ve such achievements, you are good. However, without living two lives, your foundation is just lacking. If you were given time, you might just be able to compete with me.”

  The nine demon gods appeared behind him, they stood on the altar in the void and every demon god have five light wheels behind them, their own Yuan Shen secret realms. With the forty-five light wheels, Demon Saint’s aura was growing stronger.

  Wong——

  Five light wheels emerged behind him, and included the nine demon gods within them.

  Zhong Yue opened his divine third eye and looked at them. In the center of the altar where the nine demon gods were worshipping, there was a faint image of a god. It only had a head, but even so, it was unearthly strong. Its eyes opened and the world was suffused with an overbearing aura!

  This was the true【Heavenly Saint Godly Radiating Art】!

  Innate demon god! He has used that demon Creator to complete his【Heavenly Saint Godly Radiating Art】!, Zhong Yue looked at the demon god’s head and was shocked.

  “What a pity you won’t have the chance to do so anymore.” The Demon Saint smiled and put his hand out. The emerald leaf was used as a sword as he slashed down at Zhong Yue.

  His skills were mingled into one. Although the sword look
ed simple, there were many little chains around it, Zhong Yue could vaguely see the skills surrounding the leaf sword, enhancing the emerald leaf.

  In Zhong Yue eyes, this sword was appallingly terrifying!

  To the others, the leaf was still a leaf, but in his eyes, the skills surrounding the emerald leaf became bigger, stronger, and more overbearing.

  Demon dragon, demon elephant, demon lion, dark phoenix, fire demon, water demon, and every other kind of totem pattern was surrounding the emerald leaf, getting clearer in shape and their powers getting stronger!

  Everything around Zhong Yue had turned into black and white, every sound around him disappeared. It felt like all of his senses were wiped off, and all that was left was the emerald leaf.

  The simplest move was the greatest skill, simplicity was the manifestation of the complex world. Demon Saint had used the emerald leaf as a sword and slashed out a single attack that contained every other skill in it!

  Zhong Yue sucked in a deep breath of air, he morphed into the three hundred sixty foot Fuxi True Form and the【Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art】emerged, the dragon carving split the Yin and Yang apart, while the sun and moon arose within, fusing the celestial and demon into one.

  He unsheathed the Golden Feathery Peng Sword from his light wheels and slashed the golden sword toward the emerald sword.

  At the same time, he pushed his other hand out, there was a Yin and Yang revolving in the center of his palm, and the world was given color again, sounds could heard and his senses came back.

  Demon Saint’s face turned gloomy, he raised his other hand and also pushed forward. At the same time, the two swords struck at one another, the feather and leaf were stuck together and moving incredibly slowly, as if they had fallen into a swamp.

  Chi——

  The invisible Sword Qi slashed onto the bright moon and put a huge opening on the moon, the tip of the crescent moon fell off and crashed into the fire ocean.

  Kacha!

  A rift over twenty miles long deep was created on the ground!

  Kacha, kacha, kacha…

  The bright moon above them started to crack apart, more of the moon fell from the sky, each creating a rift on the ground. It looked like as if a giant was drawing lines on the ground...

  The two swords let out a repressing aura into their surroundings, the deadly blows were moving slowly into one another and causing incredible damage to the area!

  When Zhong Yue’s and Demon Saint’s palms finally crashed together, the peace on the mountain top was struck away, and an appalling aura burst out in all directions!

  Chapter 357: 【Celestial Demon Yi】 |

  Around the mountain, Sword Qi lashed out in all directions and only the mountain top remained momentarily unaffected.

  The moment the duo’s palms struck together, two light light screens emerged in the center of the two palms, one vertical and one parallel to the ground.

  The vertical light screen cut the whole mountain into two halves. It was round in shape like a Tai Chi Symbol and tens of miles long.

  The billowing demon fire and sunfire burned vigorously together, a blazing huge sun appeared on the left and within it, the Pure Yang Qi formed into a three-taloned Golden Crow, which then morphed into a three-legged celestial being. On the right side of the Tai Chi Symbol was a round and bright moon, the Pure Yin Qi formed a six-eyed star toad which turned into a six-eyed three-legged celestial being.

  The Yin and Yang revolved and the Tai Chi was in action, sucking Demon Saint’s hand into it.

  The halved mountain beneath Demon Saint was quaking but it didn’t collapse. Instead, it was being sucked toward the Tai Chi Art and pulverized into dust.

  Demon Saint’s five fingers were being pulled into the light screen. From the changes of Yin and Yang comes the birth of Tai Chi, and the changes of celestials and demons foretold the time of life and death. His palm was being crushed by the Yin Yang and the【Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art】was disrupting the arcane energy in his body, destroying his psyche and totem patterns.

  His skin was pulverized just like the mountain, disintegrated and vaporized away, exposing the blood, meat, and bones to the air while the Tai Chi Art was still revolving in an attempt to suck him fully into the light screen!

  【Celestial Demon Yi】!

  A skill Zhong Yue had created with the【Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art】acting as the core while combining every other technique he had learned into it.

  The【Celestial Demon Yi】was a hand seal, with the celestial and demon cultivation bases as the foundation, and the changes of the Celestial Demon Tai Chi as the killing blow. It was extraordinary in terms of strength and power, but it was more of a skill that forcibly disintegrated the enemy into nothingness!

  Celestials and demons were rivals, enemies from birth, and they would never stand on the same ground and live in the same ways. When the two clashed together, they would release an abundance of power. Whoever was struck by his【Celestial Demon Yi】 would be involuntarily sucked into it and be disintegrated!

  The key was the ‘Yi’, it meant changes, and the core of the whole【Celestial Demon Yi】was the changes it had.

  ‘Yi (易)’ was a unique word created by taking the Fuxi True Form as a reference, a resemblance to the Fuxi True Form. The top part ‘日’ was the head and the ‘勿’ was the snake body, ‘Yi’ was a word holding abstruse meanings.

  At this moment, the【Celestial Demon Yi】Zhong Yue had used was a skill created by him resembling his own Fuxi True Form!

  However, this skill was still crude and primitive. After all, he had only created it just minutes ago, and time didn’t allow him to polish the skill. Moreover, he felt his lack of experience and knowledge. Although the【Celestial Demon Yi】was created, it was just a primitive beginning.

  Whether it was his attainments on the celestial path or the demon path, or even his own Fuxi True Form, he only had superficial knowledge in them, and they would need to be further enhanced in order to raise the newly-created skill to its peak form.

  The light screen that was parallel to the ground was a completely different scene. The light screen showed nine layers of altars where the nine demon gods were standing on the top and surrounding Zhong Yue in the middle.

  Demon Saint’s left hand was now sucked into the Tai Chi Art. He gazed at Zhong Yue and suddenly, he bowed down. The nine demon gods followed as well, they were all worshipping Zhong Yue!

  In the center of the altar, Zhong Yue could hear the sounds of prayer, and a cold chill was suddenly sent down his spine.

  Various changes took place in his body; the blood started boiling, the arcane energy vaporizing, the mortal body melting away, his Yuan Shen shuddered violently and his soul was nearly pulled away from his body!

  Demon Saint’s bow was the strongest skill in the【Heavenly Saint Godly Radiating Art】, the【Worship of The Nine Demons】.

  The nine demons that worshipped the enemy were in fact smiting away the enemy as an oblation to themselves!

  Sacrificing the enemies to him and turning their cultivation base into his own nutrients. This was the true power of Demon Saint’s【Worship of The Nine Demons】!

  In just the first bout, they had both only used two moves, all which were incredibly deadly, unlike anything else Zhong Yue had ever met before!

  If he hadn’t watched the battle of Shura and Demon Saint, he wouldn’t have realized his lack of prowess and or attempted to enhance himself. If he had not, Demon Saint would have been able to kill him on the spot with just these two moves.

  Demon Saint pulled his sword away from Zhong Yue’s Golden Feathery Peng Sword, and thrust it over at the center of the【Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art】where the dragon carving was located, breaking the balance of the Yin and Yang and causing them to be plunged into a state of chaos.

  The【Celestial Demon Yi】crumbled in a trice, and the Demon Saint quickly pulled his hand back. In just a few moments, the flesh and blood on his hand had been eaten away,
and only his bones were left. Even the finger bones were soft like jelly, and dense holes covered the surface of the bones.

  Over half of his left arm had been pulled into the【Celestial Demon Yi】, and it nearly reached his shoulder. If his shoulder was sucked in, followed by his neck and head, he would then be in immense danger.

  Flesh squirmed from his shoulder down to his hand like worms as he attempted to recover his left arm.

  Meanwhile, as Demon Saint pulled the leaf sword away, Zhong Yue clutched his feather sword, enlarged it to nearly thirty thousand feet long and pierced through the altar beneath him. Sword rays flitted out from the giant sword and killed the nine demon gods straightaway.

  The altar collapsed and the【Worship of The Nine Demons】was stopped.

  However, in just these few moments, nearly half of his prowess was smote away, and even his Yuan Shen had taken a huge blow.

  Zhong Yue inhaled a deep breath of air and he used up the leftover saint herb to restore himself back to his peak form from his impaired prowess.

  Krong, Krong, Krong——

  The halved mountain collapsed and the two parts fell down and crashed into one another, rocks crumbled and rained down to the ground.

  On the mountain top, Demon Saint intended to act the moment the two parts of the mountain crashed into one another. But then he saw Zhong Yue’s prowess was restored back to its peak and a flash of light flitted across his eyes. Light wheels emerged behind him and a blood charm filled with demon words and a demon god’s aura was taken out!

  Behind Zhong Yue, he also took a charm out, but different from the Demon God Blood Charm, this was written with celestial words and celestial blood, and also suffused with a godly aura!

  Demon Saint raised his brows in surprise and he put the Demon God Blood Charm back into his Yuan Shen secret realm. He reclaimed the emerald leaf and walked away while saying with a smile, “Mo Luo, Mo Luo, you are very good. However, if a blood charm is used just to kill an Inner Core Qi Practitioner like you, it will not be worth it. Without it, I will be able to kill you, but I’d have to bear with severe wounds.
