Honghuang: Eat a Hunyuan Daluo

Chapter 287 Cloud Soars to Slay the Heavenly Demon, Sisters Subdue Nezha

The Primordial Demon formed hand seals, and an enormous demonic shadow appeared behind him.

This demonic shadow was hundreds of millions of feet tall. Upon closer inspection, Yunxiao discovered that the phantom was formed from countless vengeful spirits and blood energy.

Yunxiao frowned slightly. Logically speaking, since Yuanshi Tianzun followed the will of Heaven, the methods he cultivated should be the most righteous, peaceful, and sacred. Why would there be such a terrifying evil corpse? The resentment and bloodlust emanating from this evil corpse alone would be enough to cause an ordinary quasi-saint to collapse instantly.

Yunxiao was completely baffled, but the Primordial Demon did not hesitate at all. He pushed his hands out forcefully, and the demonic shadow roared as it crushed Yunxiao. Chaos collapsed and the void shattered along the way, as if to grind Yunxiao into dust!
Yunxiao shook her head, temporarily putting aside any inappropriate thoughts. Then she slowly raised her hands, and in her palms, streams of mysterious light flowed, faintly outlining a Dao diagram that intertwined reality and illusion. She whispered, "Reality and illusion are impermanent; even reality is illusion."

As she finished speaking, the image suddenly enlarged, transforming into an endless screen of light that faced the terrifying demonic shadow.

In an instant, the demonic shadow collided with the light screen, and terrifying magical power spread outwards, causing chaos to boil.

However, a scene that shocked the Primordial Demon appeared. His demonic shadow, which was comparable to the world-destroying power of Rahu's self-destruction in the primordial world, rapidly blurred within the light screen, like an ink painting being washed away by clear water, gradually fading away and finally disappearing completely!
The Primordial Demon King was dumbfounded, feeling genuine fear for the first time.

What is the origin of this great Dao in the clouds? How can it so easily neutralize his supreme divine power?
Yunxiao did not stop. She flashed and instantly crossed the chaos, closing in on him. With a flick of her finger, she aimed directly at the brow of the Primordial Heavenly Demon!
This finger gesture, seemingly slow yet fast, seemingly illusory yet real, seemed to contain endless Daoist principles.

The Primordial Demon's heart pounded wildly, and for the first time, he felt an overwhelming sense of crisis. He roared and attacked with all his might to defend himself, only to find that his demonic energy was beginning to shimmer under the touch of that finger!
Yunxiao firmly suppressed the Primordial Heavenly Demon with the Dao of Illusion and Reality. The profound and boundless Dao rhythm was like an invisible net, covering all directions. Under the erosion of the Dao of Illusion and Reality, the demonic energy around the Primordial Heavenly Demon gradually changed from solid to illusory, just like flames being melted by ice, and it retreated step by step.

The aura of the Primordial Demon became increasingly unstable, and a deep sense of apprehension finally flashed in his scarlet eyes. If he allowed the demonic energy to dissipate completely, his Dao foundation would collapse entirely, and his years of accumulated demonic energy would be reduced to nothing.

What kind of being is the Primordial Heavenly Demon? As a saintly evil corpse, would he sit idly by and wait for death? He gritted his teeth, his eyes blazing with killing intent, and decided to fight to the death!
Yunxiao knew that Yuanshi Tianmo would have to fight desperately next, and she had already made the necessary preparations.

Sure enough, the next second, the Primordial Heavenly Demon roared, and the demonic energy around him surged wildly like a boiling sea of ​​blood. At the same time, an incomparably pure and holy aura rose from his body, which was actually the Jade Purity Immortal Technique!
These two completely opposite paths, clearly distinct in their purity and turbidity, were perfectly blended in his hands. The pure energy rose, transforming into a vast expanse of celestial light, suspended above; the turbid energy sank, condensing into boundless demonic flames, lingering below.

One clear, one turbid, just like the beginning of heaven and earth, the creation of chaos!
This scene was absolutely breathtaking!

Yunxiao's pupils contracted slightly, and the axe marks that his master had shown to his disciples years ago involuntarily surfaced in his mind.

The axe mark depicted the great god Pangu wielding the axe that split the chaos, separated the clear from the turbid, and created the world, a feat somewhat similar to the scene of the Primordial Demon at this moment.

Yunxiao's heart skipped a beat, realizing something was wrong. The Primordial Demon's move seemed to have the power to recreate the creation of the world, and it was no ordinary move! She dared not be careless in the slightest. Her expression was solemn, and she used all her strength to activate the Dao of Illusion and Reality. In the originally empty chaos, a ball of illusory light appeared out of thin air.

The light was initially hazy and indistinct, but under the influence of the Dao of Illusion and Reality, it gradually solidified, transforming into the phantom of a giant axe. Although the axe was illusory, it exuded a world-destroying power, as if it could cleave through everything, whether tangible or intangible.

Upon seeing this, the Primordial Demon's expression changed drastically, and he couldn't help but exclaim in shock: "A phantom of the Heaven-Opening Axe! How is this possible?!"

The Primordial Demon stared intently at the clouds, his eyes filled with a mixture of shock and greed. Then, as if sensing something, he suddenly realized something and laughed wildly, "Hahaha! I understand! Your Dao of Illusion and Reality, the Illusion is derived from the Dao of Devouring, swallowing all things and turning them into nothingness; the Reality is derived from the Dao of Creation, creating the world from nothingness!"

"To think that a mere innate deity of mid-to-high aptitude could comprehend these two great paths so profoundly and forge his own path—such talent truly astonishes throughout history! Bai Jing is incredibly fortunate to have accepted you as his disciple."

Yunxiao had no time to respond to the words of the Primordial Heavenly Demon. Condensing the illusory image of the Heaven-Opening Divine Axe was extremely taxing on her. Forcing this move with her peak cultivation as a Primordial Golden Immortal had almost drained her of her magical power.

At this moment, Yunxiao's face was slightly pale, and there was a fine sweat on his forehead, but his eyes were still cold as ice, revealing unparalleled tenacity.

Yunxiao was absolutely certain that this attack would annihilate the Primordial Demon, but given her current state, she could only unleash one strike. Therefore, she had to be extremely vigilant and absolutely could not allow the Primordial Demon to escape, otherwise she would be the one to lose.

Thinking of this, Yunxiao formed hand seals, and the Daoist rhyme of the Dao of Illusion and Reality flowed wildly. Under her urging, the illusory image of the Heaven-Opening Divine Axe suddenly burst forth with endless brilliance. She shouted and manipulated the illusory image of the divine axe, with unparalleled power, to slash at the pure and turbid forces condensed by the Primordial Heavenly Demon!

This axe strike seemed to cleave time and space, causing chaos to tremble and nothingness to crumble!

The Primordial Demon King exerted all his strength, urging the power of purity and turbidity to meet the attack and attempt to block it.

However, all supernatural powers were as fragile as paper under the phantom of the Heaven-Opening Axe! The power of purity and turbidity was instantly torn apart, and the demonic flames and immortal light of the Primordial Heavenly Demon were annihilated in one strike, leaving it powerless to fight back!
"Boom!" Chaos erupted with a deafening roar. Yunxiao, at the peak of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm, actually unleashed a strike comparable to that of a saint!
The phantom of the divine axe swept through the chaos like a whirlwind, cleaving the Primordial Demon in two. His body rapidly disintegrated in the axe light, turning into countless illusory fragments of demonic energy that vanished into the chaos.

However, the Primordial Demon did not completely perish. Before dissipating, his broken head laughed wildly to the sky, his voice shaking the chaos: "Hahaha! Yunxiao, you are indeed amazing! But I am the evil corpse of a saint, immortal and indestructible! Today's grudge, one day, I will repay it a hundredfold!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure vanished completely, leaving only a venomous laugh echoing in the chaos.

Yunxiao slowly withdrew her hand, her face as pale as paper, her breath weak, clearly this attack had almost exhausted her strength. She gazed at the place where the Primordial Heavenly Demon had dissipated, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes, and said, "So what if the Saint's evil corpse is immortal? When we meet again, I may have already attained the Great Luo Golden Immortal of the Primordial Chaos, and you will only suffer a more miserable defeat."

After she finished speaking, the chaos returned to silence. Yunxiao swayed and almost fell down. She flipped her right hand and a drop of Three Lights Divine Water appeared in her hand, along with ten ginseng fruits.

Yunxiao swallowed the Three Lights Divine Water and the ginseng fruit. After a while, her pale face regained its rosy color, and her drained magical power was restored by 30%.

Yunxiao let out a long sigh, transformed into a streak of light, and disappeared into the boundless chaos.

Meanwhile, at the Jade Void Palace on Kunlun Mountain, the Primordial Celestial Venerable, who was in seclusion, suddenly opened his eyes. His soul surged, and his magical power also vibrated.

Subsequently, the memories of the Primordial Demon before its fall returned to the consciousness of the Primordial Celestial Venerable.

"The Primordial Heavenly Demon has actually fallen! What a cloud, what a great Dao of illusion and reality! He was able to condense the phantom of the Heaven-Opening Divine Axe and, with the cultivation of a peak Primordial Golden Immortal, unleash a strike comparable to a saint to annihilate my evil corpse. He is truly astonishingly talented."

"Master, are you alright?" The tremor of Yuanshi Tianzun's magical power naturally caught the attention of Baihe Tongzi, who cautiously inquired from outside the door.

Yuanshi Tianzun shook his head and said, "I am fine, there is no need to worry. Baihe, convey my decree that in the future, when people of my Chan Sect encounter Yunxiao of the Holy Lotus Sect, they should try not to have any conflicts with him."

"Why is that, sir?"

"Although Yunxiao has not yet become a saint, he has the means to threaten a saint."

The White Crane Boy was startled and quickly bowed in agreement, then went to convey the decree of the Primordial Celestial Venerable. The focus then shifts back to Chen Tang Pass.

Yunxiao appeared before his two younger sisters, but the Primordial Demon did not return, and the outcome was self-evident.

Upon seeing her sister return, Bixiao immediately became arrogant: "So? Taiyi, now that your backer is gone, are you still going to compete with us sisters for a disciple?"

Taiyi Zhenren's face flushed, and he dared not answer.

Yunxiao patted Bixiao's head, signaling her to shut up, and then stepped forward and said, "My master and the Jade Purity Saint are good friends. Logically speaking, when the Jade Purity Saint's decree is presented, my three sisters and I should retreat."

However, my third sister has come under orders from our master to accept Li Jing's three sons as her disciples, and she cannot back down. We beg the Sage's mercy to allow my two sisters to accept Li Jing's three sons as her disciples.”

After speaking, Yunxiao winked at Qiongxiao and Bixiao, and then the three sisters bowed together to the imperial edict.

"Very well! Since that's the case, Taiyi, you may return!" The indifferent voice of Yuanshi Tianzun rang out above Chentang Pass.

Taiyi Zhenren nodded in agreement, put away the sage's decree, bowed to the Three Immortals, and then turned and left.

If Yunxiao hadn't killed the Primordial Demon, the Primordial Heavenly Venerable would never have agreed to these few words.

But since Yunxiao had already killed the Primordial Demon, saying these words now would be giving the Primordial Heavenly Venerable a way out, which the Primordial Heavenly Venerable would naturally not refuse.

After Taiyi Zhenren left, the Three Immortals of Sanxiao followed Li Jing to the General's Mansion.

After the three sisters and Li Jing took their seats, Yunxiao spoke first and asked, "We sisters heard that General Li has just had a son, so we came to congratulate him. This is our gift."

After saying this, Yunxiao had a thought, and a jade plate appeared in front of Li Jing. On the jade plate was a ginseng fruit, a 9000-year-old peach.

Li Jing did not recognize ginseng fruit and peaches of immortality, but as soon as these two fruits appeared, he felt refreshed and invigorated just by smelling their fragrance. He even felt the bottleneck in his cultivation loosen. This shows that these two fruits must be extraordinary.

So Li Jing tentatively asked, "May I ask, Fairy Yunxiao, what is the special origin of these two fruits?"

"This fruit, which resembles a child, is called the Ginseng Fruit, and the other is a 9000-year-old peach from Heaven."

"Hiss~" Li Jing gasped.

Ginseng fruit, a 9000-year-old peach! This fairy from the clouds is incredibly generous.

Legend has it that the scent of this ginseng fruit can grant one 360 ​​years of life, and eating one can grant 47,000 years of life. It also enhances magical power and improves cultivation, making it a rare find even for Great Immortals.

Although the peaches of immortality do not enhance one's cultivation, eating just one can grant eternal life.

"These two spiritual fruits are far too precious for Li Jing to accept. Please, Fairy, take them back!"

“Just take it when I tell you to. What kind of man are you, dawdling like that? I am the Qinghua Emperor of Heaven, and my two older sisters also hold divine positions in Heaven. Peaches are nothing to us.”

As for my eldest sister, she is a disciple of the Crimson Cloud Saint. Ginseng fruit is extremely precious to others, but for my eldest sister, it's something she can eat quite often.

After hearing Bixiao's words, Li Jing no longer refused and accepted the two spiritual fruits.

However, Li Jing was still somewhat puzzled. Wasn't this ginseng fruit tree the property of Zhenyuan Daxian, the master of the Earthly Immortal Realm? But according to Bixiao Fairy, this ginseng fruit tree was just like the one belonging to Hongyun Saint.

If Li Jing were to ask this question, Bi Xiao would answer without hesitation that, in a sense, this ginseng fruit tree truly belongs to the Sage Hongyun.

Bixiao followed Yunxiao to visit Hongyun several times. Each time they went, the Sage Hongyun was always cultivating under the Ginseng Fruit Tree. The ginseng fruits on the tree were all picked and preserved by the Sage Hongyun.

In the words of the Sage Hongyun, Zhenyuan Daxian was too busy managing the Immortal Realm to take care of the Ginseng Fruit Tree, so he took care of it for Zhenyuan Daxian.

Therefore, every time Yunxiao went to the Immortal Realm, he would always harvest some ginseng fruits, which is why Yunxiao was able to take out 10 ginseng fruits to restore his magic power just now.

After Li Jing accepted the ginseng fruit and peaches, Qiongxiao said, "General Li, the three of us sisters would like to take your third son as our disciple. General Li, could you please bring your son out so that we three sisters can have a look?"

Upon hearing this, Li Jing immediately summoned a maid to bring the child out.

The maid carefully carried the child out. Yunxiao took the child, frowned slightly, and then asked, "General Li, I wonder what time this child was born?"

Li Jing's heart tightened, and he hurriedly replied, "Born at the hour of Yin, Fairy Yunxiao, could it be that my son was born at an inauspicious time?"

Yunxiao shook his head and said, "No, this child's fate is not bad, but he was born at the hour of Yin (3-5 AM), which is a time of impending doom." He then asked, "Can this child be named?"

Li Jing replied, "No."

"This child is the third in line. General Li's two previous sons were named Jinzha and Muzha. Logically, this child should be named Shuizha, but since he was born with a fire element and has committed a crime in the human world, it is not suitable for him to be named after water. So let's call him Nezha!"

The name Nezha was given by her master. Although Yunxiao did not know why her master named Li Jing's third son Nezha, she naturally had to follow his instructions since he had given the order.
