Why are all of us who transmigrated at the same time demons?

"Homage! Bloodbath against the Heavenly Demon Lord!"

"Heart-Slaying Heaven!"

"Lord of the Asura Blood Sea!"

"Blood sacrifice to the blood god, skull sacrifice to the skull throne!"

Upon seeing this giant god, the Six-Eared Macaque's supernatural powers activated automatically, and his ability to hear and search the heavens and the earth allowed him to instantly learn the giant god's name.

But soon, confusion appeared in his monkey eyes. Does such a god exist in mythology?

Before the Six-Eared Macaque could even ask a question, the giant god swung his blood-red greatsword, and a murderous sword aura, a mixture of crimson and gray, slashed towards him with overwhelming killing intent.

"How dare you! Since you've come out of hiding, let me test your martial arts!" The Six-Eared Macaque brandished his Ruyi Jingu Bang and clashed with the giant god.

He had expected this to be a thrilling battle, but he was only half right. The battle was indeed thrilling for the opposing side, truly thrilling.

A sea of ​​blood-red aura seeped from the gaps in the brass armor, the terrifying heat evaporating the blood and forming a vast, crimson mist. The giant god swung his sword with unstoppable force, propelling this blood mist, while the Six-Eared Macaque could only barely defend himself.

The giant god grew stronger and more excited with each battle. With a flick of his left hand, he conjured a terrifying whip adorned with demonic flames from the blood mist.

The whip unleashed a terrifying sonic boom, and the shockwave from the clash between the gods had already leveled the entire Toshogu Shrine.

The Six-Eared Macaque bared its teeth and parried the Blood God's attacks; it was about to collapse.

"Damn that stable boy, I knew nothing good would come of running into him!" the Six-Eared Macaque cursed.

"Change! Change! Change!"

The Six-Eared Macaque scattered its fur, which transformed into countless fur clones, each wielding an iron rod and smashing it towards the Blood God.

"A mere trick!" The blood-red giant uttered a disdainful voice from within his armor.

"Blood Demon's Heaven-Burning Flame"

In that instant, the blood energy transformed into a raging sea of ​​crimson fire, instantly destroying the large group of Six-Eared Macaque's hairy clones.

Blood God swung his greatsword, wreathed in crimson demonic fire, and slashed down, aiming straight for the Six-Eared Macaque's head.

"Hand over the head!"

Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, the Six-Eared Macaque hurriedly used all his strength to deflect the Blood God's greatsword. However, the Blood God's swordsmanship was exceptionally exquisite. Not only did he not lose his balance, but he also unleashed a sword strike that was as graceful as a gazelle's horns, which was inconsistent with his ferocious style.

The Six-Eared Macaque couldn't dodge in time and was slashed across the neck by a sword. Even his indestructible body couldn't withstand the Blood God's terrifying greatsword. As the sword flashed, the Six-Eared Macaque's head flew high into the air.

Gazing at the headless body of Liu Er, the Blood God did not cease his attack. He lunged forward furiously, slamming Liu Er's flesh to the ground. Terrifying wrathful crimson energy was unleashed by the Blood God, entering through the severed opening of Liu Er's corpse, like a rabid hunting dog devouring its prey.

As the Six-Eared Macaque's head tried to fly away, the Blood God pointed backward, and his greatsword transformed into a streak of blood-red light, pinning the head directly to the ground.

The disobedient god, the Six-Eared Macaque, was thus eaten alive.

As the Six-Eared Divine Demon surged into the divine image, not only did the crimson image representing the Blood God become increasingly solid and perfect, but a slender blue divine image also gradually materialized, with splendid bird feathers faintly visible within it.

Chapter 115 Godslayer: The World-Slaying Susanoo

In the secluded world, a gaunt monk in black robes sat cross-legged in a quiet bamboo hut. Opposite him sat a young princess dressed in a magnificent twelve-layered kimono from the Heian period. In the center of the hut stood a burly man with bushy hair and beard, dressed in hemp clothing and straw sandals. His face was rugged, but his slightly narrowed eyes revealed a cunning glint.

The black-robed monk was Tenkai, a monk of the Tendai sect. He served as a strategist for three generations of the Tokugawa family, including Tokugawa Ieyasu. He was also the mastermind behind Tokugawa Ieyasu's conferment of the title of God of the Great Power of the Tosho clan. The spell used to imprison the monkey god was also one of his masterpieces.

The young princess was so beautiful she seemed inhuman, and indeed, true humans were few and far between in the underworld. She was a divine progenitor, a being close to humanity after the fall of the Earth Mother. In mythology, she had a name: Sita, the protagonist of the epic Ramayana and wife of Rama, an avatar of Vishnu. After becoming a divine progenitor, the name Sita was discarded, and because of her beautiful, clear eyes like crystal, she was also known as the Crystal-Eyed Princess.

The burly man was none other than Susanoo, one of the three noble sons in Japanese mythology. He was the god of destruction, the god of storms, the god of the sea, and a wandering god, famous for slaying the Yamata no Orochi.

However, Susanoo differs from mythology in many ways. He broke free from mythology early on and wandered the earth. Furthermore, through his powerful will, he overcame his rebellious nature and hid in the underworld. Therefore, since his departure from mythology, the evolution of mythology in the present world has been completely unrelated to him.

This Susanoo, referred to as "Go-o-o" by the island nation's official history compilation committee, is the true master behind the island nation's sorcerers.

These two beings, one human and two gods, are allies whose core interest is to maintain the current divine and human order of the island nation and to prevent the awakening of the Last King. The awakening of the Last King would shatter the existing order and throw the world into chaos, which contradicts the demands of these three day gods.

The black-robed monk suddenly opened his eyes.

"Oh no! Someone has altered the spells of the Western Heaven Palace and intends to harm the Monkey God!"

Upon hearing this, Susanoo immediately sat up straight. He knew that his peaceful and leisurely life was inseparable from the hard work of the Monkey King. If the Monkey King hadn't been driven away by the Japanese to drive away the dragons and snakes, he, the wandering God of Steel, would have had to take matters into his own hands.

Such good free labor can't be allowed to die!

Just as the black-robed monk was about to head to the mortal world, a thick, rusty, bloody stench suddenly appeared in Susanoo's secluded retreat.

Having once been a war god, Susanoo's long period of seclusion hadn't completely eroded his fighting instincts. The moment he smelled blood, he stood up and immediately began chanting incantations.

"A miracle that appeared from the darkness of the world when Onogoro Island was stained with blood!"

"Transform into a living katana to separate life, transform into a dead katana to sever calamity!"

"Reveal yourself from the abyss of the underworld!"

"The dark calamity dwelling within my flesh and blood!"

"Tian Cong Yun Sword!"

In the present world, a black divine sword held in the arms of a beautiful young girl suddenly broke free from her embrace, transforming into a stream of light that pierced through the barrier and flew into the Netherworld.

"too slow!"

A sound like a battle cry or the clash of weapons echoed in this small, dark realm. A blood-red battle axe appeared out of thin air and, just before Susanoo could receive the sword, severed his right arm. A large hand wearing brass gauntlets then seized the black Kusanagi sword.

Crimson divine power seeped into the sword, attempting to wrest control of it from Susanoo's hands.

The divine sword possessed a spirit, and let out a mournful cry!

The one person and two gods present were already drenched in cold sweat, and Princess Liuli Tong looked at the terrifying figure that had suddenly appeared there with a terrified expression.

"The Asura King! No! Something even more terrifying than the Asuras! This sense of destruction, this bloodlust, is like seeing the Great Mother of Time!"

"Buddha's enemy! Heavenly Demon King!" The black-robed monk wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, never expecting that he, who had already attained Buddhahood, would still sweat from fear.

Susanoo's gaze was deep. He paid no attention to the injury on his right arm, but focused all his strength on vying for control of the Ame-no-Murakumo sword.

He knew perfectly well that of the three people present, he was the only one who could fight. The other two were a Tantric monk who specialized in incantations and a god-ancestor who was considered weak in combat in the original mythology. If they really fought, they probably wouldn't even be able to withstand two axe blows from this guy in front of him.

For the God of Steel, the divine weapon representing their steel nature is very important. In the past, He did not want to be a God of Steel, so He did not care much about the ownership of the Ama no Kusanagi. But now that His stronghold has been attacked, the Ama no Kusanagi is indispensable.

The black-robed monk roared, "Impossible! I clearly felt that He was just altering the formation of my Dongzhao Palace not long ago. How could He have arrived in the Netherworld the next moment?"

Susanoo smiled stiffly, and while wrestling with the Blood God, he replied to the monk, "Monk, we have encountered a master of celestial magic. Even you have been misled in your judgment."

"Friends from afar, consider this mischievous monkey from the Western Heaven Palace a gift for you. Why don't we sit down and have a drink? Why fight and kill each other?"

Susanoo attempted to persuade the Blood God with words, since in mythology Susanoo is both a god of war and a god of trickery, and the slaying of Yamata no Orochi was a manifestation of his schemes.

However, the Blood God rarely speaks; He only desires what He obtains through swords and spears, and negotiation is never on His agenda. Of course, He might consider negotiating when the Sanctuary card pool is open.

But what kind of grotesque figures are these? A sorcerer who practices Tantric Buddhism, a god ancestor who is just a pretty face, and a disobedient god full of cunning and scheming—can they compare to the number one idol in the galaxy?

"My dear sister Amaterasu's huge butt is above me!" Susanoo exclaimed, actually seeing appetite in the other's eyes. Could it be that in this crimson behemoth's eyes, they, the gods, were actually seen as food?

Susanoo was so angry that he laughed instead. No matter what, he was a member of the gods and had always been a true noble on this land. He had never been so humiliated.

Even the Yamata no Orochi, which drinks up great rivers and whose poison flows across the land, regards Him as a great enemy. How could anyone despise Him like this?

The rage ignited Susanoo's war god spirit, which had been dormant due to his long period of seclusion. His clear and passionate fighting spirit surged forth, as if the god of destruction who had disturbed the peace of Takamagahara had returned to the world.

The Tiantai monk, employing his mastery of the Mountain King's Way, came to assist Susanoo in his battle against the enemy. He held the vajra mudra in his right hand, pressed the earth mudra with his left, and chanted mantras.

"Om Swaha, the Bull-Headed King!"

This is the mantra of the Ox-Headed Heavenly King. The Tiantai school takes the Lotus Sutra as its core scripture and believes that "a single thought contains the three thousand worlds." Everything in the world is a manifestation of the Dharmakaya Buddha, and all dharmas are unified and without distinction.

After the Tiantai school of Buddhism was transmitted from Tang Dynasty China to Japan, it merged with the local Shinto religion. Based on the previous theory of the manifestation of the Dharmakaya, the Tiantai school believed that the gods of Shinto were all "manifestations" of many Buddhas, which is the "merger of gods and Buddhas" of Sanno Shinto.

For example, in the Tendai school of Buddhism, Susanoo is the Ox-Headed Heavenly King, a manifestation of Yakushi Nyorai, which is quite similar to Tokugawa Ieyasu's "Tosho Daigongen".

Therefore, the monk Tenkai performed the Ox-Headed Heavenly King mantra to bless Susanoo, which is one of the three core practices of the Ox-Headed Heavenly King esoteric Buddhism of the Tiantai school.

In addition to the fundamental mantra, the monk Tianhai then formed the outer lion mudra and recited the mantra.

"Om Vajra Kundali Hum Phat"

After forming the mudra and reciting the mantra, he stomped his feet three times, forming the "Triangular Vajra Realm," and used Kundali Vidyaraja to bless the power of Ox-Headed Heavenly King. Ox-Headed Heavenly King has always been regarded as a guardian deity who drives away the invasion of plagues and external diseases. Tenkai-sō viewed the invading blood god as an external plague in his mantra, which perfectly matched Ox-Headed Heavenly King's divine role, further enhancing Susanoo's power.

Princess Liuli Tong also used the divine ancestor's innate ability to pour a huge amount of essence and magical power into Susanoo's body, allowing his divine power to reach a new level.

Having received multiple blessings, Susanoo immediately became vigorous and began to gradually regain the upper hand in his struggle against the Blood God. Just as he was preparing to seize control of the Kusanagi Sword in one fell swoop...

A blue figure appeared and disappeared on the outside of Susanoo's secluded dwelling place. He stretched out his hands, which were covered with gorgeous blue feathers. His hands were bound inward, with his two thumbs pressing against the base of his ring fingers, his two little fingers standing upright and touching each other to form a triangle, and his index finger bent like a bull's horn and then straightening out. This was the Yakushi's Resurrection Mudra.

“Om Vishvaha ...

The sound of chanting Buddhist mantras echoed through the secluded bamboo grove. Upon hearing this, the monk Tianhai was greatly alarmed, for he could vaguely make out the hand seals formed by the blue figure.

"This is the Medicine Buddha's Original Vow Mantra, and also the Medicine Buddha's Divine Seal, which is specially used by my Tiantai sect to subdue the Ox-Headed Heavenly King."

Sensing that the control of the incantation had been taken away, the monk Tianhai was utterly defeated. How could someone surpass him, a master of the Tiantai school, in both the Mountain King Divine Path and the Taimi Path?

However, Susanoo suffered a terrible fate. In order to receive the blessing of Tenkai, he took the initiative to immerse himself in the myth of the Ox-Headed King. However, with an extra layer of divine buff, he also gained an extra layer of divine special attack debuff.

For this world and even the entire Shinto world, it has always been the special attack on the gods.

Since he is the Ox-Headed Heavenly King, he must be restrained by the Medicine Buddha's Divine Seal and the Medicine Buddha's Original Vow Mantra. This is a law rooted in mythology.

"Quack quack!"

The blue figure let out a cheerful laugh, like the chirping of birds, while the crimson Blood God was already filled with bloodlust. With a surge of divine power, He snatched the Kusanagi Sword in one fell swoop. The crimson divine power engraved layers of crimson patterns, like blood vessels, on the black sword. Then, He swung the sword down on Susanoo, who was in a weakened state.

Susanoo's long, flowing head flew high into the air, and Blood God then unleashed a sword aura like a blood-red storm, shattering Susanoo's body and head together.

After that, things became much easier. Princess Ruri-hime and the old monk, who had lost the protection of Susanoo, the god of war, could not withstand two sword strikes from the Blood God.

All three were refined into divine demons and absorbed by Loran. The crimson Blood God and the blue figure became even stronger, while the green figure among the nine divine forms began to materialize gradually after obtaining the power of Princess Liuli Tong, the ancestral god transformed from the Earth Mother Goddess.

Chapter 116 Godslayer: Primal Heavenly Demon

In the urban world, the world of the Demon Lord who was defeated by Loran, the ancestor of the demonic path, the Primordial Heavenly Demon, set the tone of great terror, great despair, and great destruction for the demonic path. However, different demonic offspring had different understandings of how to shape the "three great aspects" of the demonic path.

Therefore, the demonic path was divided into eight branches after the original demonic path.

The oldest sect is the Blood Demon Path. The Blood Demon Path believes that the greatest fear of living beings is death, and death is the loss of life. Blood and qi are the carriers of life; to extract the fear and despair of living beings, one must manipulate life. The Blood Demon Path specializes in the creation of life, and its founder cultivated to become the supreme Blood Demon.

The Demon Slayer Path originated from the Blood Demon Path. The founder of the Demon Slayer Path felt that the Blood Demon Path's manipulation of life was too troublesome. Only by facing slaughter head-on and directly experiencing the cries of life before death could one condense that boundless killing intent and cultivate the supreme Demon Slayer Path.

The Nightmare Demon Path excels at deceiving the senses, creating dreams, and manipulating illusions. They believe that with a single thought from a Heavenly Demon, the world can be transformed and all living beings can perish, ultimately leading to the attainment of the supreme Nightmare Demon.

The concept of "Buddha and Demon" originates from the Buddhist path. Buddhism pursues emptiness, Nirvana, universal liberation, and the union of the self and the divine. However, the "Buddha and Demon" path believes that even the most venerable monks can become demons, especially those practicing sudden enlightenment or the Pure Land school which doesn't seek profound doctrines. These practitioners are prone to lacking a solid foundation, and once they stray from the right path, they become immensely powerful demons. The "Buddha and Demon" path often uses Buddhist scriptures to promote demonic doctrines, tempting venerable monks to collapse from their Buddhist faith and fall into demonic possession. Therefore, the "Buddha and Demon" path is extremely rare, but when it does appear, it is often a great demon, with its founder becoming a powerful, self-liberated demon.

The Earth Demon Path believes that Heaven is supreme, while the Earth encompasses everything. While giving birth to life, it simultaneously breeds boundless darkness. After death, life returns to the Earth, which embodies humanity's fear of death. While nurturing all beings, it also breeds much corruption. The supreme Yama, sought by the Earth Demons, is the demon god who unifies the darkness of the Earth. The Earth Demon Path often disguises itself as earth deities or river gods, exploiting the fear of the Earth to cultivate its demonic path. In the Lesser Yama Realm, if one hears of young boys and girls being sacrificed to river gods, it is either an evil demon or an Earth Demon behind it.

The Heart Demon Path believes that true terror comes from the human heart. The Heart Demon Path hides in the mortal world, instigating one human tragedy after another, in pursuit of cultivating into an unparalleled karmic demon.

The Path of Gods and Demons believes that it is better to cultivate by borrowing from gods than from sentient beings. Gods and demons have the faith of sentient beings, so they are most adept at corrupting gods and devouring their cultivation for their own use. Their ancestor cultivated into an immortal god and demon.

The Absolute Demon Path originated from the Heart Demon Path. The Absolute Demon Path believes that nothing is worse than relying on oneself. Only by experiencing true despair and going to extremes in endless madness can one forge a demonic heart through extremes and obsessions, and finally cultivate into the supreme Absolute Demon. It can be said to be the representative of the Madman School.

The Six Elements Demon Sect, to which Shen Ke belongs, is based on the Earth Demon Path, mixed with the Heart Demon Path and the Killing Demon Path. However, at Shen Ke's level, he is only one step away from becoming an immortal god-demon. He will cultivate all kinds of demonic paths to increase his wisdom, but he will focus on one aspect in his main cultivation.

Loran drew upon the principles of the Eight Meridians of Demonic Path from Shen Ke's memories, combining them with his Heavenly Demonic Divine Power "Formless Ceremony." He aimed to cultivate the Eight Meridians of Demonic Path simultaneously, ultimately achieving the status of the Primordial Heavenly Demon.

His cultivation was based on the path of gods and demons, because this world was full of gods, which was the best nourishment for the path of gods and demons.

Among them, the Demon Killing Path is the main one, which is integrated with the Blood Demon Path. The demonic forms he cultivates are Blood Slaughtering Heavenly Demon Lord and Heart Slaughtering Heaven, with the Eightfold Blood Sea Asura Terror and Cruelty True Talisman as the core talisman.

He primarily uses the Nightmare Demon Path and integrates it with the Blood Demon Path. The demonic forms he cultivates are the Wonderful Desire Heaven Demon Lord and the Blissful Heaven, with the Six Rings Desire Realm Original Sin Karmic Talisman as the core talisman.

He primarily uses the Mind Demon Path, integrating the Buddhist and Demonic Paths. His demonic forms are the Myriad Transformations Pure Treasure Heavenly Demon Lord and the Usurper Heaven, with the Nine Yuan Crystal Palace Myriad Transformations Treachery True Talisman as his core talisman.

He primarily uses the Earth Demon Path and integrates the Absolute Demon Path. His demonic forms are the Compassionate Corruption Heavenly Demon Lord and Corruption Heavenly Being, with the Seven Bodies Corruption Garden Boundless Receiving Foul True Talisman as his core talisman.

He primarily uses the Blood Demon Path and integrates it with the Earth Demon Path. His demonic forms are the Myriad Spirits Devouring Realm Heavenly Demon Lord and the Gluttonous Heaven, with the Eternal Dragon Devouring True Talisman of the Eternal Heaven of Countless Calamities as his core talisman.

He primarily uses the Demon-Slaying Path and integrates it with the Demon-Killing Path. The demonic forms he cultivates are Dark Heaven Pure World Demon Lord and God-Destroying Heaven, with the Three Palaces Golden Palace Great Extinction Emperor Extreme True Talisman as the core talisman.

It is based on the path of gods and demons and integrates the path of earth demons. The demonic forms it cultivates are the Heavenly Demon Lord of Ingenious Calamity and the Heavenly Demon of Evil Machines, with the Myriad Machines Demon Court's Absolute Saint Maitreya True Talisman as its core talisman.

It is based on the Buddhist and demonic paths and integrates the Nightmare Demonic Path. The demonic forms it cultivates are the Chaotic Lawless Heavenly Demon Lord and the Impermanent Heaven, with the Two Elements Netherworld Prison Chaotic Formless True Talisman as its core talisman.

These eight Heavenly Demon Lords each reside in a different region, guarding the final ultimate demonic fruit—the Primordial Demon Ancestor.

The Ape God is the God of Steel and also the God of War; his divine nature and aura can perfect the Bloodthirsty War Demon Lord. The Six-Eared Macaque is the same, and the dual nature of their hearts nourishes the Myriad Transformations Pure Treasure Demon Lord.

Susanoo is the God of War and the God of Storms, the best nourishment for the Bloodlust and War Demon Lord. Meanwhile, the Earth-attribute God Ancestor Princess Liuli Tong and the Buddha Tianhai Old Monk respectively fulfilled the wishes of the Compassionate Corruption Demon Lord and the Myriad Transformations Pure Treasure Demon Lord.

"But since I succeeded in killing a god, why didn't I trigger Pandora's Godslayer Reincarnation Ritual?" Loran pondered as he dispelled his divine avatar and stood in the Netherworld.

"If I remember correctly, the Godslayer Ritual requires the participation of gods who have returned to mythology. It is the artifact of the Ring of Usurpation and Pandora's power of 'Giving All' that enables the Godslayer Reincarnation Ritual to be activated."
