Chapter Fifty-Six: Prelude

  Since the grand wedding of Ye Qing, the Honghuang universe has been calm for nearly 90,000 years. All quasi-saints and above know that this is the calm before the storm, feeling the oppressive atmosphere in the Honghuang, everyone's heart is filled with worry.

  Rumble

  In the central great hall of the ancient temple in the far west, it was now completely filled with thick demonic energy. In the empty and desolate great hall, Luo You sat upright on a black jade throne, shrouded in a black robe, and the thick demonic energy was spewing out from his body. If a great divine being from the Primordial Chaos were here, they would be shocked - Luo You's indestructible physical body, forged by the strongest cultivation technique in the universe, the Indestructible Demon Slaying Technique, had now presented a special existence between reality and nothingness. This physical body seemed to have been born for darkness, merging with it as one.

  Boom

  A majestic and powerful demon's howl burst out from the depths of the grand hall, amidst the howling sound, Luo Hui suddenly lifted his head, his eyes snapped open, a pair of overbearing eyes looked up towards the top of the grand hall. Behind him, a gigantic demonic shadow condensed behind his body, its demonic aura was like a prison, this was the magical body refined by Luo Hui as the essence blood of the Chaos Demon God.

  Since Luo Yu participated in Ye Qing's grand wedding and returned, he closed the Demon Temple and has been secretly cultivating the Undying Demon Technique. Now, the Undying Demon Technique is about to be fully mastered, and over the past 90,000 years, Luo Yu has created a rough framework for the demonic path. After creating the demonic path, his entire body's power was completely transformed into demonic yuan. The power of the Undying Demon Technique will soon increase by nearly three layers, and its combat strength will also greatly increase.

  Rumble rumble rumble

  The sky suddenly darkened, a purple lightning bolt descended from the heavens and struck the Demon Temple. At the moment when the purple lightning tore through the void, Blood Demon, Heaven Demon and others all felt an aura of terror that was so strong it made their blood run cold emanating from within the lightning bolt.

  "bump"

  It was almost at the moment when the purple lightning cracked the sky that the long-closed gate of the Demon Temple was pushed open from inside. As the temple door opened, a thick and prison-like demonic aura burst out from within, and amidst this aura, Luo Hua stepped out wearing a black cloak, his eyes gleaming with an intimidating light.

  "Boom! Boom!"

  When Luo stepped out of the demon temple for the first time, the sky suddenly darkened with thick clouds. Thunder rumbled and flashes of lightning illuminated the air. A massive purple electric current swirled above Luo's head, appearing and disappearing in an instant, darting back and forth within the dark clouds. Under this eerie backdrop, Luo seemed like a demon god descending upon the world, his shadow cast on the ground stretching out endlessly, as if it reached all the way to the end of the earth.

  "Ah!"

  A wide black cloak, like a night bird, was stirred up behind Luo Yu, with the increasingly strong gusts of wind.

  Luóu's face was calm as he walked into the water, step by step, moving further away. The sound of his footsteps wasn't loud, but it had a strange and eerie charm that clearly fell into the hearts of all the demonic sect disciples.

  Feeling the terrifying aura on Luo's body, the blood of the demonic cultists boiled thoroughly. Countless demonic cultists felt the call of the strongest submission from the depths of their souls. Feeling Luo's powerful demon shadow covering the entire Hongyuan continent, protecting all demons, one by one, they were excited beyond measure.

  The warriors of the four legions under the Demon Cult did not have the permission of the Four Great Leaders. They poured out from various demonic temples like a swarm of locusts. The dark and dense horde of demons wildly shouted "Cult Master". With their hands raised, holding magical instruments, they converged from all directions.

  A power as profound as the abyss and as binding as a prison is influencing all the demons of the Demon Sect. At this moment, the only master of the Demon Sect, Luo Yu, has deeply rooted his image in the hearts of all demons. His status far surpasses the influence of the four great commanders on the four great legions.

  In fact, although Luo Yu has the highest leadership of the Demon Sect in name, in reality, since the establishment of the Demon Sect's army, the actual control of the four branches of the military has been from the twelve Protectors, with four people selected as the four Great Commanders. The four Great Commanders are Blood Demon, who is in charge of the Blood Demon Legion, which has 30 billion Demon Sect warriors; Dream Demon, who is in charge of the Dream Illusion Legion, also having 30 billion Demon Sect warriors; Desire Demon, who is in charge of the Desire Demon Legion, with 5 billion Demon Sect warriors; and Heart Demon, who is in charge of the Destruction Demon Legion, with 4 billion Demon Sect warriors. The four Great Legions are strongest with Blood Demon's Blood Demon Legion and Dream Demon's Dream Illusion Legion, while the Desire Demon Legion and Destruction Demon Legion have similar strength. The remaining eight Protectors are in charge of all internal affairs of the Demon Sect.

  Although Luo Ye was immersed in his cultivation and did not actually control the entire Demon Sect, no one dared to disobey him. When Luo Ye emerged from his seclusion with a majestic aura, all the Demon Sect warriors forgot about the four great leaders, and their hearts only had room for the Demon Sect's leader, Luo Ye.

  "Welcome, Master!"

  "Welcome, Master!"

  "Welcome the Master of Sex Education"

  "Welcome the Master"

  The palaces of the Demon Cult were thoroughly occupied by the four major legions of the Demon Cult. They all faced Luohu, prostrating themselves on the ground. Their mouths emitted waves of fanatical shouts, and in the sky and underground, the Demon Cult warriors crawled in a posture of worship. The arrogance and frenzy on their faces had completely disappeared, leaving only devout faith and fanatical worship from the bottom of their hearts.

  In the midst of the four dark armies, Xue Mo's face was visible through the crowds. From afar, he gazed at Luo Yu who looked like a celestial being, and his heart was shocked beyond measure.

  "I didn't expect that the Cult Master's nine-year retreat would bring the Unextinguishable Magic to such a level. What's even more unimaginable is that the power of his entire body has changed, becoming even stronger." The Blood Demon's heart was racing with excitement, unlike the Dream Demon, Desire Demon, and Heart Demon. Although they were all among the four great leaders of the Demonic Cult, the Blood Demon was the only one who had been granted the Unextinguishable Magic by Luo Yu. Apart from feeling the overwhelming power that was like a prison, he also sensed the difference in Luo Yu's aura, which was a new level of power that emerged after mastering the Unextinguishable Magic. It was even stronger than before.

  "He actually managed to do it!" For some reason, when he came to this conclusion, all the ambition in Xue Mo's heart disappeared, leaving only his loyalty to the Demon Sect and his loyalty to Luo Yu. Thinking of this, he suddenly felt completely relaxed.

  It seems to have sensed the change in Blood Demon, Luo's gaze pierced through layers of space and looked over here. The Blood Demon felt Luo's profound gaze, his heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt extremely fortunate that he had made the right decision, otherwise he wouldn't even know how to die.

  Looking at his four major legions of densely packed, endless demonic cultivators stretching to the ends of the earth, Luo Ye felt an unparalleled sense of pride in his heart. This was the true power of my Demonic Sect! The era where my Demonic Sect dominates the Vast Expanse is about to arrive! A mighty and unyielding ambition was brewing in Luo Ye's heart. Thinking of this, Luo Ye made a decision.

  "Rumble, rumble, rumble......"

  A majestic demonic aura burst out from Luo Yu's body, surging into the bodies of billions and billions of demonic cultivators. Shortly after Luo Yu implanted the seeds of demonic aura into the bodies of billions and billions of demonic cultivators, all the demonic cultivators within a radius of tens of millions of miles around Luo Yu suddenly let out a shrill cry, with a burst of bloody light in their eyes. Endless demonic aura gushed out from their bodies, and the aura on their bodies surged wildly, instantly elevating their strength to an unprecedented level. More and more demonic cultivators underwent bizarre transformations...

  Watching the transformation of the demonic warriors, Luo's heart felt a sense of relief and satisfaction. This time, it was not in vain that he had spent his energy to enhance the power of the demonic sect! However, thinking about how far away he still was from achieving great success with his indestructible magic, the joy of the demonic sect's increased power suddenly vanished without a trace. He needed endless slaughter and endless soul power. Soul power was the most refined power in this world, and there was no power more refined than it, not even the chaotic power. The demonic path could quickly enhance one's cultivation by directly plundering soul power, but the righteous path relied on faith to produce soul power to enhance cultivation, without any harm. However, the demonic path was different; although it could quickly enhance cultivation through slaughter and devouring souls, the resentment produced by the dying person would mix with the soul power. If there was no good method to devour the soul power, the resentment would be absorbed, which would not only bring no benefits but also many disadvantages to one's cultivation. It might even lead to madness and possession, which was a common occurrence for those who devoured souls to enhance their cultivation on the demonic path. This was probably the difference between the righteous and demonic paths.

  Of course, for a strong man like Luo Yu who possesses the Indestructible Demon Art, swallowing the soul of a strong man not only has no drawbacks but also greatly benefits his cultivation, allowing him to rapidly enhance his cultivation. The final step of the Indestructible Demon Art is to use the infinite power of the souls to condense and form the Chaotic Demon God Body, thereby breaking through the current realm and reaching the Sacred Realm. Thinking of this, Luo Yu really didn't want to wait any longer, so he decided to take action and launch a surprise attack.
