Refining the Dao into Godhood: A Tale of the Jie Sect-Chapter 30 [Bloodline Poison Curse, Demon God Trapped]
Chapter 30: Chapter 30 [Bloodline Poison Curse, Demon God Trapped]
Upon hearing the phrase "Heavenly Oath," Pan King’s remnants hesitated slightly, but still spoke out: "Under the aegis of the Heavenly Dao, I am willing to make a Heavenly Oath. Should Xuanqing aid me in disposing of Xiao Mang, I am willing to bestow my insights into the authority of the Great Dao, as well as the Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Pan King Primordial Gu Sword, and two pieces of the Evil Summoning Banner. May the Heavenly Dao bear witness to this!"
It must be said that Pan King truly detested Xiao Mang Demon God, even more so than Donghuang Taiyi, who had slain him. In his eyes, no betrayal was worse than that of this ingrate younger generation, who not only joined the Demon Clan but also dragged his own Pan Hu descendants and ancestor into great calamity.
"Agreed!"
"The junior accepts your offer!"
Seeing Pan King making the Heavenly Oath, Xuanqing also decided to take a risk. However, he had no intention of taking action personally, but planned to use his avatar to lure the Xiao Mang Demon God into this space.
"May my avatar be boundless!"
With Xuanqing’s command, a stream of spiritual light descended from the auspicious clouds above his head, transforming into the figure of an unfamiliar cultivator: "Senior, may I borrow the Evil Summoning Banner for a moment?"
Since Xiao Mang Demon God must be lured here, an enticing bait of significant weight was essential.
"Very well!" fгeewёbnoѵel_cσm
The voice of Pan King’s remnants rang out again and, while surprised by the technique Xuanqing employed, he nonetheless broke through the poison miasma to send out the "Evil Summoning Banner!"
The spiritual light separated from Xuanqing immediately attached to it, transforming into a physical form, emanating the distinct aura of pestilence and calamity unique to the "Plague God."
"Away with you!"
The avatar left in an instant, darting towards Xiao Mang Demon God, while Xuanqing hid himself anew within the void, donning the "Golden Radiance Crown."
Even after establishing a Heavenly Oath, he did not fully trust Pan King’s remnants. What if the latter failed to eliminate Xiao Mang Demon God and instead was killed by him?
He had to ensure a way out for himself!
Meanwhile, Xuanqing’s avatar at a hundred miles from Xiao Mang Demon God suddenly activated the unique aura of the "Evil Summoning Banner" and laughed loudly, "I have found the Spirit Treasure of Pan King!"
This move immediately alarmed several Taiyi Demon Kings nearby. Some instantly conjured various Spiritual Treasures to attack Xuanqing’s avatar: "Leave the Spiritual Treasure, and we’ll spare your life!"
Several Taiyi Demon Kings hesitated to delve deeper into the poison miasma and quickly went to report to Xiao Mang Demon God.
"You can’t escape!"
The pursuers, ordinary Taiyi Demon Kings, wielding only Acquired-refined Spiritual Treasures, could hardly prevent Xuanqing’s avatar from escaping.
Moments later, it shook them off with the Divine Skill "Soaring Golden Light."
But in the blink of an eye, a formidable presence traversed infinite space with a great hand shaped from mana reaching out for the avatar.
The aggressor was none other than Xiao Mang Demon God!
"Hand over the treasures!"
Xiao Mang Demon God acted decisively. Despite the immense distance, he could clearly sense the aura of both the Taiyi Golden Immortal and the "Evil Summoning Banner" on the avatar, not believing a mere Taiyi Golden Immortal could take away a Pan King Spirit Treasure from him.
However, Xuanqing, a disciple under the Tongtian Sect Master for many years, had not cultivated his Divine Skills in vain.
He could not vouch for everything, but his Escape Skills were among the top within the disciples of the three teachings, having mastered Divine Skills like "Soaring Golden Light," "Five Elements Great Escape," and "Submerged Abyss Contracting Earth." He had even cultivated the "Wind and Thunder Wings" and comprehended his very own "Sword Escape Technique!"
Even though the avatar executing these skills was a mere extension, it retained seventy to eighty percent of the original’s prowess, sufficient to hold its ground against a Daluo for several exchanges.
"You won’t escape!"
Xiao Mang Demon God did not expect his decisive action would fail to capture the Taiyi Golden Immortal, and immediately transformed into a rainbow light chasing into the Poison Miasma Land.
Although the poison miasma was formidable enough to erode his Dharma Body of Daluo, he believed that a quick retreat and a purging with mana would not cause him any lasting harm.
"Here it comes!"
His other self silently recited an incantation in his heart and charged directly into the small world evolved from the "Pan King Pearl". Xiao Mang Demon God also instantly followed into the small world.
However, as soon as he entered, he was surrounded by a poisonous miasma, and countless venomous insects flew from all directions, intending to devour his Daluo’s Dharma Body.
"Heavenly Demon Divine Fire!"
Xiao Mang Demon God, experienced in battle, although somewhat surprised, was not panicked. Merely some Gu Worms were not enough to make him give up on the Pan King Spirit Treasure.
A cold Divine Fire emerged in the void, sweeping across all directions. Gu Worms fell like rain, and even the surrounding poisonous miasma dissipated a great deal.
"A dead person still trying to pull tricks?" Xiao Mang Demon God urged the Heavenly Demon Divine Fire and shouted, "Old ancestor, just hand over the Spiritual Treasure obediently!"
"Unfilial descendant!"
Pan King’s remnant consciousness scoffed coldly, as billions of Gu Worms danced: "If it weren’t for you inviting wolves into the house, how could our Pan Hu clan have fallen to such straits?"
Xiao Mang Demon God didn’t feel he was in the wrong at all: "He who understands the times is a great man! The Demon Emperor has the ambition to swallow the Four Seas and aspires to unite everything under the heavens. Transforming the Demon Clan into one that encompasses all clans is a tremendous act of Merit! It is you, old ancestor, who couldn’t see the grand trend and refused to lead the Pan Hu clan to submit to the Demon Emperor, that led to the tragedy of that day!"
"Nonsense!"
Pan King’s remnant consciousness thundered: "Unite everything under the heavens? Was it by using the ’Evil Summoning Banner’ to unite them?"
As a powerful being who had undergone Transformation already in the Dragon-Han Era, and one of the three thousand guests in the Purple Cloud Palace, whose strength rivaled Emperor Jun, how could he possibly hand over his True Spirit to Emperor Jun?
Knowing he could not out-argue Pan King, Xiao Mang immediately urged the "Heavenly Demon Divine Fire" to clear the poisonous miasma: "Old Ancestor, this thought of yours is already like a candle flickering in the wind. By bringing me into this small world, what can you do?"
Billions of Gu Worms fell like rain, and without the control of Pan King himself, they couldn’t pose any threat to him, so he put aside the worries in his heart.
"Is that so?"
Pan King’s remnant consciousness heard this, but was not angry, merely sneered: "If it were someone else, naturally I’d have no way, but you are a blood descendant of mine! I have countless ways to deal with you!"
He paused, then continued with a sneer: "You think that these Gu Worms are my trump card, but have you not noticed that your Bloodline’s source is slowly degrading?"
"What?"
Xiao Mang Demon God was greatly frightened upon hearing this, and quickly used his Primordial Spirit Power to scrutinize himself, then shouted in both shock and rage: "You old fiend, what have you done?"
"Hahaha!"
Pan King’s remnant consciousness laughed loudly: "You still don’t understand what I’ve done? Your Bloodline originates from me, of course, it’s about stripping away your Bloodline!"
The "Plague Great Dao" encompasses everything, including matters of Bloodline. Since Xiao Mang Demon God has Pan Hu Bloodline, he was naturally influenced by Pan King’s remnant consciousness.
In fact, these Gu Worms were only meant to distract Xiao Mang Demon God, while the real trump card had silently merged into Xiao Mang Demon God’s Bloodline.
"Damn it!"
"Bloodline’s poison!"
Xiao Mang Demon God realized too late and tried to resist, but he could feel a strange force invading his Physical Body and Primordial Spirit along his Bloodline.
His Physical Body was the first to start mutating, uncontrollably transforming into a giant black dog, and although he gritted his teeth in anger, he was unable to revert to his Innate Taoist Body’s appearance.
This was his original form!
And Pan King’s true form was of a three-headed giant mastiff, each head representing one type of the Great Dao, inherently suppressing his blood descendants.
"Old ancestor, please spare me!"
Xiao Mang Demon God finally felt fear; he could feel his Physical Body and Primordial Spirit continuously decaying, as though facing the five declines of heaven and man.
Before the Divine Skills of Pan King, the so-called immortality of a Daluo was no different from a joke.
