All heavens, let's begin with the Divine Elephant's Prison-Suppressing Power!

Chapter 146 First destroy the Heavenly Court, then enter Mount Ling. Ten thousand Buddhas grieve, and the light of Heaven shines!
"Tang Sanzang?"

Yang An was speechless. Would there still be a Sun Xingzhe who would exterminate the Eight Realms and kill Wujin?

But he quickly put these distracting thoughts behind him.

Jiang Zhiwei and Ruan Yushu were rescued by him, and the countdown of the Six Paths of Reincarnation above their heads was about to end. Yang An opened his eye between his eyebrows, shot out divine light, poured into their bodies, and directly severed the connection between their true spirits.

The two women let out a muffled groan, seemingly feeling much more relaxed.

"What is this?" Jiang Zhiwei's eyes changed.

"I have severed your connection with the Six Paths of Reincarnation." Yang An's expression was calm as he condensed his Sovereign Body. The change in his strength was merely a negligible point.

The powerful one has a keen sense of space, time, destiny, cause and effect, etc. Under the Lord's gaze, nothing can be hidden, and even the secrets of the future can be observed. It can be said to have both legendary and otherworldly characteristics. Severing the connection with the true spirit is also easy for him.

"I will send you back to the real world."

Yang An was about to unleash a massacre, so how could he allow the two women to stay by his side? He wasn't some simp who couldn't resist the sight of women.

Ruan Yushu was somewhat bewildered and at a loss. Everything he had experienced was too surreal. The great demons, demon kings, evil gods and bodhisattvas appeared one after another and were killed by His Majesty the Holy King. It was like a dream.

Fortunately, Jiang Zhiwei was very sensible and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, senior."

"Well, I've severed your spiritual connection with the Six Paths, but it's best if you have the protection of the Other Shore Divine Weapon, otherwise there's still a chance you'll be abducted by the Six Paths." Yang An left these words behind, then casually tore through the void with a wave of his hand and threw the two women into the Holy King's Palace.

"First destroy the Heavenly Court, then enter Mount Ling, and slay all the demons, leaving none alive."

Yang An ascended step by step into the sky, the Human Emperor Sword in his hand radiating brilliant golden light, like the roar of a true dragon. Sensing the recurrence of the demon chaos on the land, he felt a surge of anger. Wherever the sword light passed, demons throughout the entire Tang Dynasty instantly perished!
They were singled out and crushed!

This scene deeply moved the emperor and ministers of the Tang Dynasty. Some of the more vulnerable were moved to tears, thinking, "Does humanity finally have hope?"

In this world that has completely sided with the demons, humanity can only survive in the cracks, praying that those demons, who are like gods and immortals, will not one day decide to come to the Tang Dynasty, tear off the veneer of peace, and devour millions of people.

Many human kingdoms are kept by demons, such as the Kingdom of Wuji, the Kingdom of Women, the Kingdom of Baoxiang, and the Kingdom of Chechi. How could they not know this?

But what can we do even if we know? We still have to maintain a facade of peace, allowing the people to live and work in peace and contentment as much as possible, whether they live in pain or die happily without knowing anything.

This is a difficult choice.

"How dare you, a mere mortal, offend the Heavenly Palace!"

The Heavenly Court remains glorious and majestic, flawless and immaculate. Outside the South Heavenly Gate, numerous demons from various landscapes guard the area. They are all in human form, dressed in white armor and silver robes. If one does not look closely, it is difficult to tell that they are demons.

The Heavenly Court had long since collapsed, and what was rebuilt was a demonic abyss. The most prosperous human dynasty, the Great Tang, was their masterpiece. They never interfered in ordinary times, until the cycle of time came and the darkest moment arrived. Then they descended from the sky and wantonly slaughtered and devoured the human race.

He only returned to the Heavenly Palace satisfied when a new dynasty rose to power.

This cycle has continued for five thousand years.

The strongest human is only at the peak of the Outer Realm, which is why the Demon Clan's Heavenly Palace monitors them at all times and does not allow even a half-step Dharma Body to appear.

Because it has happened in history, a human being's Dharma body appeared out of nowhere, then stormed the Heavenly Court, and was eventually suppressed.

Sun Wukong, the king of demon kings, was merely involved in internal strife within the demon race. Although equally bloody, the demon race was like wild beasts, utterly devoid of civilization. They not only ate people but also slaughtered each other, countless times.

"die!"

Yang An ignored it completely, threw it with all his might, and the Spear of the Underworld pierced through the heavens and earth, the Hell Vortex erupted, the Twilight Symphony played, the Southern Heavenly Gate shattered instantly, and countless demons died tragically, turning into a sky full of corpses that fell from the sky.

The people of the entire Tang Dynasty will likely never forget this scene, even for all eternity.

A crack appeared in the sky, and the flawless heavenly palace was transformed into a bloody graveyard. The immortals of yesteryear shed their skins, revealing their true forms. Countless demons roared ferociously, but in the end, they turned into terrified howls!
Yang An thrust his spear heavily, whistling through the air and piercing the Heavenly Court. The intense true energy permeated the heavens and the earth, causing entire palaces in the Heavenly Court to explode and countless forbidden spells to begin to crumble.

"Gather the power of all living beings and activate the great formation!" Li Shimin roared. He had obtained a page of the Human Emperor's Golden Book from Yang An, as well as the Emperor's Divine Fist. At this moment, his strength had greatly increased, and the formation that gathered the power of the entire Tang Dynasty territory appeared, which could at least block the aftershocks of the great battle.

"You audacious mortals, surrender now, or I will slaughter your entire human race!" The Heavenly Emperor and Queen Mother were furious. They were extremely powerful, one a true dragon and the other a colorful phoenix. Originally auspicious creatures, they had now turned to darkness.

Or perhaps this is how history unfolds: the Demon Saint, the first phoenix created several eras ago, possessed the Five Virtues and controlled the world-burning fire, yet he was the one who orchestrated the chaos of the land.

They have no sacred place.

"You ignorant fool, what Heavenly Emperor and Queen Mother? In front of me, you are nothing but an ant. What are you trying to prove with your majesty?" Yang An's voice was icy and indifferent.

Chi!

He thrust his spear forward, and the heavens and earth changed color. The entire Heavenly Court was shrouded in the light of dusk, and then a melody resounded, the gates of hell opened wide, and the call of the god of the underworld came.

"Ridiculous! I don't know where this human came from. We have controlled the world for thousands of years. How can you compare to us!" The Heavenly Emperor's expression changed, but he revealed a sinister smile and stretched out his large hand to grab the spearhead.

His true dragon body gave him absolute confidence, and he was not afraid of even that person from Mount Ling.

Five hundred years ago, even without the intervention of the Demon Buddha, Sun Wukong, the King of Demon Kings, could not defeat him.

But the instant his large hand grasped the Spear of Hades, the Spear effortlessly pierced through his hand, continuing its momentum until it plunged into his throat and emerged from the back of his neck.

Yang An's spear trembled, and the Heavenly Emperor's enormous head flew up. An incredulous look flashed in his eyes. He never dreamed that he would be killed by a single spear.

Heads flew off, and columns of blood shot into the sky.

"Screech!" the Queen Mother of the Rainbow Phoenix roared angrily.

Yang An retaliated with another spear thrust, and her body exploded, staining the entire Heavenly Court red with blood. Everywhere was covered in the writhing flesh and blood of the dragon and phoenix. Countless demons were stunned, but then erupted into chaos.

"He killed the Heavenly Emperor! He also killed the Queen Mother!"

A demon at the half-step into the Dharma Body exclaimed in terror: "Impossible! The Heavenly Emperor has ruled the world for thousands of years, an immortal and indestructible being, how could he die!"

"What to do, what to do?"...

A frenzied panic spread like a plague among the demons, instantly extinguishing their courage to fight.

"Nothing is impossible; the power of the gods is beyond your imagination!"

Yang An roared and grabbed with his big hand, instantly disintegrating the entire Heavenly Court. The demons inside were crushed to death. It didn't matter what was inside, as the Hell Furnace swallowed them whole.

"Fragments of the Heavenly Court boundary marker, and the Heavenly Emperor's jade book?"

He suddenly discovered something hidden within it, which only became apparent after he refined it. Even the Heavenly Emperor of the Journey to the West world had not cultivated it; only by burning it with the Heavenly Pure Fire could he detect it.

Clearly, the true Heavenly Emperor of the Other Shore had tampered with the Time Blade, specifically leaving it for him.

Yang An didn't care at all. He could simply swallow the sugar-coated bullet and deflect the bullet back. He couldn't possibly cultivate the Heavenly Emperor's Jade Book anyway; all the methods had been integrated into his Dominator Body, so why add any more burden?

Within this demon clan's heavenly palace, aside from the two powerful immortal avatars, the Heavenly Emperor and the Queen Mother, there were eight demon kings whose strength was much weaker. They caused chaos under the guise of immortals and gods, but were far inferior to the avatars of the main world, and had long been easily killed.

However, there were no demons led by the Three Pure Ones among them, as if even they knew fear.

After a great victory, Yang An descended from the sky, throwing out countless demon flesh and blood, refining the filth within, leaving only the essence.

"Distribute them to the people of humanity, and let blood be repaid in blood. No descendant of the demons will escape; kill and devour them all!" His gaze swept over them, exciting Li Shimin and Tang Sanzang.

If the enemy can go there, so can I. From now on, the balance of power has shifted!
"Kill, kill, kill!"

Countless people roared, their momentum forming a unified force.

A day in heaven is equivalent to a year on earth. Yang An could only wage war in the heavenly palace for half a day, but half a year had passed on earth, during which time he had already amassed a massive army.

"Good! Very good! Very good!"

"I will lead you on a westward expedition and slaughter all the demons!" Yang An's lips curled into a cruel smile: "From now on, show no mercy. Every demon must die. There are no such things as kind spirit demons."

"Remember, they deserve to die!"

His voice was sacred and infectious; the eye of God sees all, and the voice of God is the gospel.

Those who heed the gospel will be saved!

"Kill!" Tang Sanzang fully awakened, and his favorite thing was to use his iron fists to smash into demons and enjoy the feeling of each punch hitting flesh.

"I will obey the immortal's command!"

Li Shimin personally led the expedition, his expression resolute. This battle was a fight to the death, the final roar of the human race against the demon race, and they would never be willing to sink into oblivion!
"set off!"

With a wave of his hand, Yang An sent the entire Tang army into the air, heading west. Wherever they went, blood and gore followed, and countless demons from various countries perished. The mountains and rivers were almost stained red with blood!

Those lingering demonic souls haunted the place, wailing and howling everywhere, seemingly unwilling to accept their fate and wanting to be resurrected.

"Go to hell and wail!"

Yang An, expressionless, opened the rudimentary form of the Gates of Hell, connecting it to the chaotic alternate dimension. Within it, they would experience the Avici Hell, ultimately becoming an integral part of the Gates of Hell's power, never to be reborn.

This period of history is known to later generations as "The Exorcism of Demons in the Western Paradise" and is also jokingly referred to by some as "Journey to the West to Obtain Buddhist Scriptures" because they obtained a large number of demon scriptures, which were then put together and burned to ashes.

The demon race completely disappeared, becoming food for humans.

Five thousand years of historical cycles have passed, and now it is the demon race's turn to suffer.

Along the way, none of them escaped—Fire Boy, Nine-Headed Golden Eagle, White Bone Demon, or the three brothers of Lion Camel Ridge.

The Tang soldiers slowed down and fell behind.

But Yang An got faster and faster, and when he reached Mount Ling, he threw a punch!
"boom!"

The entire sacred mountain trembled, and the next moment an anomaly occurred, with the mournful voices of ten thousand Buddhas resounding.

'Praise be to the Demon Buddha, Lord of All Buddhas!'

Inside Mount Ling, corpses littered the ground, including the bodies of nuns, bodhisattvas, and Buddhas, their eyes lifeless and their mouths constantly chanting sutras. In the world of Journey to the West: Conquering Demons, most of the so-called immortals and Buddhas are external figures, with very few being their true forms.

Moreover, they are generally much weaker than the Dharmakaya of the real world, such as the Demon King Sun Wukong, who is extremely rare.

Slightly stronger than it are the Heavenly Emperor and Queen Mother, the pair of true dragons and colorful phoenixes, and Guanyin Bodhisattva. They are blessed by the will of heaven and earth, making them even stronger, roughly reaching the level of the fifth or sixth on the Heavenly Ranking.

Although Yang An did not fight against the top few on the Heavenly Ranking, he easily defeated Cui Qinghe, killed the Blood Sea Rakshasa and the Gu God, and knew their approximate strength.

The sacred mountain before us reflects certain aspects of history in the real world.

“Benefactor Yang An.” The praised Lord of Ten Thousand Buddhas, the Demon Buddha, manifested, “Would you be willing to do business with me?”

"Stop talking nonsense, you don't even deserve to talk to me."

Yang An was too lazy to care about the conspiracies and schemes behind it. The Demon Buddha was almost obviously the incarnation of Ananda, but so what? What did it have to do with him? He wouldn't even bother to kneel down and become his dog.

"Roar!"

Behind Yang An appeared an elephant-headed, human-bodied, incomparably majestic deity, with heaven above its head and hell beneath its feet, so tall that even Tang soldiers tens of thousands of miles away could see it.

"God!" They knelt down with a thud, tears welling in their eyes, finally seeing the true form of the great god!

Throughout the myriad realms, the Dharma Body can unleash world-destroying power, capable of annihilating heaven and earth. Whether it can actually destroy planets is uncertain, but the influence of the True Realm's aura on the myriad realms is self-evident.

The body of the sovereign automatically evolves even legendary and otherworldly characteristics; such a miracle is not surprising.

"Abandon sagacity and discard wisdom!"

Despite being refused communication, the Demon Buddha remained calm. The entire sacred mountain vanished in flames. Countless demon bodhisattvas and Buddhas chanted sutras and raised their hands in unison, unleashing the third move of the Tathagata's Reverse Palm. All demons were subdued, and a reversed swastika was slammed out.

This move corrupts wisdom, abandons truth, embraces ignorance, and goes straight to the heart. If one is influenced, one will be completely corrupted. This move is aimed at Yang An's 'weakness'.

In the past, it might have actually been useful, though it wouldn't have reached the point where the marks of the gods would unleash their power, but it could have deeply affected Yang An's nature.

This is an opportunity that the Demon Buddha has been planning for a long time.

But now it has become a complete joke. With the body of the sovereign and the wisdom of God activated, Yang An's vision remains clear and unaffected!
Behind him, a majestic deity with an elephant's head and a human body roared, its trunk flicking as if an endless sea of ​​stars were being reversed, and with a step forward, it suppressed all demons.

An unparalleled state of mind, a domineering aura, and the wisdom of the gods brewed within Yang An's heart. He opened his hand, then clenched it, unleashing a thunderous punch that radiated boundless light, as if heaven had been created, purifying the entire world.

This punch, which vaguely resembled the rudiments of the Heavenly Fist, shocked the Demon Buddha, who revealed disbelief in his eyes.

"Boom!"

The next moment, the Demon Buddha's body vanished with the wind!
The entire world of Journey to the West: Conquering Demons was purified under the baptism of this immeasurable light and the light of heaven, and the demonic aura and power were swept away. The seemingly weak beliefs of all living beings were transformed into a vast voice of praise, resounding through the sky.

They all sang praises to the greatness of the Lord and the greatness of Yang An!

He truly saved the world!

　That's incredible! The group reached over 400 members in less than a day! Is everyone really that enthusiastic?
