As the array was set up, an altar was set up in the hall. Fang Yongjie was extremely weak and could not move. He had no choice but to carry his bed over.
After the array was set up, the Emperor's Sword and the Emperor's Sword were placed on the two corners of the altar. The soldiers then carried them up to the altar.
When everything was done, Pei Zi Yun stepped onto the platform. As soon as he did so, a bright light flashed. Fang Yongjie had been prepared for this. His face was solemn as he spoke, "This humble one is foolish, and cannot take on such a great responsibility. I am willing to shift all responsibility and responsibility to you, True Sovereign.
As soon as these words were spoken, a loud boom could be heard as the Plum Blossom appeared. It started spinning in the air and a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky. This was lightning in winter.
A Plum Blossom appeared before his eyes as it grew bigger and bigger. It then turned into a translucent information interface that floated in front of him.
"You've received permission from the person in question. You've received 1.6% of the authority over the Dragon Veins. You've broken through to the Earth Immortal Realm. The Dragon Veins have been activated. You've received 16% of the authority!"
"You've received 78% of the authority over the Dragon Veins."
"You've been connected to an unknown territory." In the time it took to say this, Pei Zi Yun had already received the authority and unlocked it. Following which, a strong force of attraction came over him. This was the power of demonic Qi. It started absorbing spiritual Qi. Of course, facing Pei Zi Yun, this absorption was extremely difficult.
Pei Zi Yun ignored it and spoke to the Dao Officials, "Begin."
"Yes!" Over a hundred Dao Officials immediately obeyed. Many of them could see the Spiritual Qi flowing into Fang Yongjie's body. Fang Yongjie could not see it himself and was shocked.
Pei Zi Yun walked over to the bed and whispered, "Your illness will get better. You're feeling better now, right?"
"Yes, I don't feel dizzy anymore. My mind is much clearer now."
"Men, bring some ginseng porridge. Don't use dried ginseng, use the roots."
Pei Zi Yun's wife's eyes lit up as she brought a bowl over. Pei Zi Yun watched as Fang Yongjie drank the porridge and swallowed some food. Fang Yongjie then took a sip of water and sighed, "It's been half a month since I've had such food. In the past, I would vomit whenever I drank it. True Sovereign, how did the effects come so quickly?"
"There are over a hundred Dao officials here. Even though it isn't a lot, it's already not bad if they work together. Moreover, you are still young. Once the root of your illness is gone, you will naturally be at ease." Pei Zi Yun then ordered, "Carry Young Master Fang out and let him sleep. When he wakes up, he'll be fine."
The entire hall was bustling with activity. Soon, only the Daoist officials and soldiers were left in the hall. Pei Zi Yun looked at his wife, who was overjoyed. He then turned around and said, "Protect me with your protective spells. I want to see who's behind all this."
As he spoke, he sat in the center and his Yin Spirit sank down. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from the Underworld.
King Lu's Paradise
A pale yellow light shone down. This was the foundation of the living world. It caused the Paradise to be as bright as day. However, the sounds of battle shook the heavens. Looking over, the imperial court troops were fighting with the demonic spirits.
The Demon Soldiers were gray, and they rose up like smoke. There was no end to these Demon Soldiers. Once they were killed, they would be drawn back to the Reincarnation Platform by spiritual light.
"Hu!" On top of the stage, there was a strong gust of wind blowing. The Primordial Spirit of the Blind Daoist sat upright, as though there was an endless stream of energy gushing into him. The glow around his body became even more intense.
"The Grand Array of Ten Thousand Demons is finally complete." The Blind Daoist opened his eyes. He didn't even bother to look at the battle. All of a sudden, he raised his head and looked into the darkness. He seemed to have sensed something and said, "I didn't expect them to come so quickly. Oh well, since I've already set up the Grand Array of Ten Thousand Demons, I shall settle this once and for all."
As he spoke, he laughed coldly.
Dark Altar Mountain, Main Hall
Cheng Yuan Zi sat upright. In front of him was a disciple who was kneeling. Below him, there were tens of other disciples who were seated. These disciples all had transformations on their bodies.
"Consume this pill." As Cheng Yuan Zi spoke, he tossed a pill in front of the disciple. The disciple's hands were trembling as he picked up the pill.
Seeing the pill, the disciple's face was filled with fear. He looked around and realized that he was alone and without help. Even though there were fellow disciples around him, they were expressionless. Gritting his teeth, he picked up the pill and swallowed it. As soon as he swallowed it, the disciple revealed a pained expression. He wanted to scream, but his body didn't move.
He didn't even have the strength to scream. His eyes were filled with violence. After some time, the disciple opened his eyes, and a demonic shadow appeared, "We pay our respects to the True Sovereign."
A large group of disciples were all Yin Masters, and all of them had demonic shadows. They all shouted out in unison, "We pay our respects to the True Sovereign. Long live the True Sovereign!"
"Haha!" Cheng Yuan Zi laughed out loud. When he was done, he looked at the disciples and said, "Listen up. We're already part of the Demon Race. Our plan now is to accumulate merits within the Demon Race, and seize the throne. Once I become the Demon Emperor, you can follow me to achieve the Dao."
"And now, the Reincarnation Platform has requested for reinforcements. This is our chance."
"Let's go together!" As he spoke, Cheng Yuan Zi's demonic qi merged together. With a single motion, the souls of all the disciples of Dark Altar Sect sank into the Spiritual World.
The Underworld
Everything was silent. Apart from the occasional glimmer of light, everything else was pitch black. This was the Underworld.
Pei Zi Yun was dressed in his Daoist robes, and was glowing brightly within the Underworld. A cold wind blew past, and as soon as it neared, it was stopped by the bright light. Evil spirits roamed the area, and when they saw Pei Zi Yun, they knelt down on the ground, afraid of attracting his attention.
All the evil spirits avoided him, and didn't dare to approach him.
Amidst the bright light, there was a Plum Blossom, and it was absorbing information continuously.
"So that's how it is?"
The energy of the Immortal Dao was constantly being absorbed by the Plum Blossom, and was broken down into information that was transmitted to Pei Zi Yun's divine sense. Pei Zi Yun then understood the crux of the matter.
The Immortal Dao Dragon Veins were born from the heavens and earth, and were the natural laws of the world. However, this world didn't have its own consciousness, and thus could be deceived.
"Did the Demon Emperor use part of the Immortal Dao Dragon Veins to deceive the world? Did he make the world think that this was some sort of special Paradise? "
In that instant, he traversed through space and time, and stopped above King Lu's Paradise. He hovered in mid-air, and could see the entire Paradise.
"Imperial Qi?"
"Heroic spirits?"
Pei Zi Yun was able to see everything clearly below.
Beneath him, the demon soldiers continued to pour out of King Lu's Paradise. The heroic spirits of the Imperial Court also charged forward, killing each other.
Seeing these demonic spirits killing each other, Pei Zi Yun turned his gaze to Paradise. He noticed that there was something strange about Paradise. There was a thick layer of grey demonic energy surrounding the Dragon Qi.
Just as he was about to take a closer look, he felt a strong sense of repulsion and pressure. This caused Pei Zi Yun's vision to become blurry, and he could only see faintly.
"Ai, what's this?" Pei Zi Yun frowned, his face was solemn. At this point, Regal Propria's command medallion and the Emperor's Sword moved. Pei Zi Yun could see the formation of the heroic spirits attacking, and could see every single one of them clearly.
At this point, another change occurred. Pei Zi Yun mumbled, "Although King Lu's Imperial Qi has been affected by the demonic energy, it seems to have some sort of connection with the original Imperial Qi."
"No wonder. He's the son of the Founding Ancestor, and is now the second Emperor."
In that instant, the scenery of King Lu's Paradise became clear to him.
The palaces and pavilions were filled with demonic spirits. In the middle of Paradise, there was a tall platform, and tens of thousands of statues stood there. These statues all had ferocious looks on their faces, and were of all shapes and sizes.
With just one look, Pei Zi Yun could tell that within the small space of the Heavens and Earth Reward, these statues were alive and well.
"These statues are all primordial spirits of the demon race!"
Just by looking at it, Pei Zi Yun could feel the presence of the Immortal Dao Dragon Veins. He looked around and saw that not far from the platform, there was a fake mountain. This mountain was formed from the Dragon Veins, and was covered in grey chains.
"What a treasure land."
