Zhang Yan was meditating when he sensed something in his heart. Even though it was very faint, he could sense that it had something to do with the Extraterritorial Demonic Beings. Thus, he investigated it and instantly understood the whole story.
Up until now, Chi Yao and the others had sent out dozens of disciples in order to occupy the Primordial Void Sea and turn it into a place where the Demonic Beings could reside. However, although they themselves possessed the Weili, they did not have the complete cultivation method. In other words, the disciples under them could not cultivate step by step. This was an extremely missing link that needed to be filled by the disciples themselves.
Since they could not obtain this from the Demonic Lord, they had to learn from others. Thus, everyone chose a different path of cultivation.
For example, Yu Yuetian. This young Daoist was called Ren Cheng, and he was the eighth disciple after the Head Demon. Because he had the most contact with those who cultivated the Fundamental Superior Sutra, he had also learned some of the advantages from it.
However, from the looks of it, it was impossible to obtain great power by worshiping the Celestial Lord. Only by chanting the sutra with devotion could one's heart and mind be enlightened. Only then would one be able to cultivate it. However, apart from not being able to directly enter True Yang, this sutra could also be regarded as a fairly good cultivation method. Ren Cheng was unable to completely copy it, so he could only cut off a part of it that could be used, and embark on the path of worshiping the Demon Lord.
Chi Yao and the others were happy to see this happen. The more branches their disciples opened, the more they could benefit from it and use it to perfect their Dao. Thus, whenever they felt someone worshipping them, if they saw that the disciple was a promising talent, they would most likely respond.
Although the old man also received a response when he worshipped Zhang Yan this time, the situation was different. This was because it was not something that Zhang Yan had given to him.
Zhang Yan had been paying close attention to the changes in the demonic people's Dao techniques, but even if it was just a little bit of attention, it contained great Weili. Once he called and worshipped them in the right way, as long as he was sincere enough, the Qi activity that was wandering outside would automatically respond and pay attention, and he would gain some benefits. This was just like how even a little leak in the vast ocean could make a small river overflow.
When Zhang Yan noticed it, he pondered for a while. Now that the Primordial Demon and the Extraterrestrial Demon had set up their base in the Primordial Sea of Void, it was destined that there would be conflict between the two sides. However, it was inevitable that the cultivators in the human body would be involved. Facing such a situation, he felt that it was necessary to leave a chess piece. Thus, he sent a cultivation method over with a thought.
When the old man saw that he had recovered his youthful appearance, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. But at the same time, he felt that he wasn't a human anymore, and he had completely transformed into something else. In other words, he was a devil from beyond the heavens that the cultivators of this world spoke of.
All of a sudden, he was extremely disgusted with the spiritual vigor that filled the heaven and earth. Instead, the inexplicable Qi activity that gathered on the altar made him feel very close to it.
Ren Cheng asked with concern, "Did you get any supernatural power?"
It was just that it was Weili, but it was nothing. Almost everyone would get some benefits after worshipping the Demon Lord for the first time. It didn't matter who you worshipped. The amount of Weili you got depended on how sincere you were.
However, the difference was that those who worshipped Chi Yao and the other two Demon Lords would more or less have one or two supernatural powers. So far, there was no one who got any benefits from Chi Zhou Demon Lord.
When the old man heard this, he tried to turn his mana. Suddenly, there was a dim brilliance that shone like the sun. In just a moment, all the inexplicable things on the altar were swallowed by him, and not a single drop was left.
Ren Cheng's expression changed. It was these indescribable things that carried their existence. They were fine in the void, but it was different in the world that was filled with spiritual vigor. To their bodies that resided in this world, it was undoubtedly poisonous. He quickly took out a small cauldron, and then he muttered the name of Heng Jing Demon Lord in his heart. Not long after, another inexplicable thing came from the void, and it filled up the empty space that Just Now had lost.
It was only then that the old man realized that something was wrong, and he quickly stopped turning. However, in just a moment, he felt that the mana in his body had increased by a notch, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
Ren Cheng revealed a look of envy. The person in front of him had undoubtedly attracted the attention of Chi Zhou Demon Lord. Otherwise, how could he have such a good fortune?
Moreover, this supernatural power was undoubtedly very useful. The speed of swallowing inexplicable things was ten times faster than others. It was conceivable that regardless of mana or cultivation speed, the person would far surpass his peers. Perhaps it wouldn't be long before this person's status would be on the same level as his.
He thought for a while, and took a name list that he previously disdained from the offering table. He looked at the top row, and when he saw the name 'Wan Changyi', which was high and mighty, he secretly noted it down.
At that moment, when the people below the stage saw that they could really become an extraterrestrial demon through the ritual, their hearts were burning with passion, and they couldn't wait to come up and worship.
When Wan Changyi saw this, he laughed and said, "Fellow Daoists, please come up and complete the ritual as well."
Immediately, more than ten people came up. They also saw that Just Now, the person that the old man was worshipping was Chi Zhou Demon Lord. Just Now, they had obtained such a benefit, and in the future, they would undoubtedly work together. If that was the case, there was no need for them to choose other demon lords, as that would be inconvenient. However, there were still some problems in this, so someone spread a few rumors.
When Wan Changyi heard this, he pondered for a while, then cupped his hands towards Ren Cheng and said, "May I know which demon lord High Messenger is worshipping?"
Ren Cheng said, "The one I'm worshipping is Demon Lord Heng Jing." He seemed to know what these people were worried about, so he smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, you don't have to think too much about it. It doesn't matter which demon lord you worship, even if you change your sect, it's not a big deal."
Wan Changyi said in surprise, "Can I change my sect?" If after becoming a disciple, he would be deceiving his master and destroying his ancestor, and that was definitely not a small matter.
Ren Cheng said indifferently, "As long as the demon lord doesn't have an order, it doesn't matter. It's just that to avoid a clash of aura, I can only change my sect once a year at most."
When everyone heard what he said, they didn't have any worries in their hearts, and they all came up to worship. Not long after, all of them turned into demon bodies, but none of them had divine powers like Wan Changyi, so many people couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Ren Cheng said, "Everyone, there's no need to be dispirited. Those like Fellow Daoist Wan who immediately obtained a divine ability are sincere enough. For the next ten years, you will have a chance to obtain a divine ability every year. Even if you can't obtain it, you can still learn it from him. I'll teach you a secret technique first." As he spoke, everyone, including Wan Changyi, felt a spell suddenly appear in their hearts.
When everyone looked at it, they were surprised to find that it was actually the technique to control inner demons, and they quickly realized the benefits of this. Inner demons were a great harm to cultivators, but to them, it was something that came from the same source. Not only did they not need to be wary of cultivators harming them, they could instead use them for their own purposes.
Wan Changyi clasped his hands and said, "Many thanks for using this technique."
Ren Cheng flicked his sleeve and said, "From now on, you and I are fellow Daoists, so there's no need to be so polite. Once all of you have occupied this world, the demons will sense the loss of believers, and they will definitely come to investigate. When that time comes, there will be a great battle, so everyone needs to improve their strength as quickly as possible."
Bu Xu Heaven, Mountain and Sea Realm.
Halfway up Immortal Cessation Mountain, Cen Xiao was clawing at the cracks and protrusions in the stone walls, doing his best to climb up the nearly vertical cliff. There were still five days until the middle of the month, but reaching the peak wasn't something that could be accomplished in a day or two, so he set out early.
As he climbed higher, the mountain wind grew stronger, causing his clothes to stick tightly to his body. However, the entire mountain range was covered by a spell formation, and it was no longer the snowy lands of the Northern Heavens. Instead, it was filled with the changes of the four seasons.
It just so happened that it was summer, and he had also stepped onto the path of cultivation. Not only did he not feel cold, he actually felt very cool.
Not long after, he came to a platform that he could barely stand on. Looking back, the night had already fallen, and he could vaguely see the stars in the sky. He pulled out a small knife and cleaned up the tough vines around him, expanding the space that he could shelter a little, just enough to bury half of his body. Thus, he sat down cross-legged, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and began to meditate with rapt attention. Unknowingly, he entered a meditative state.
By the time he woke up, the night had already passed. It was now dawn, and the Golden Crow was about to vomit. He stretched his arms and legs, took a few deep breaths, and then continued to climb.
In the next few days, he climbed the mountain during the day, and at night, he carved out a hiding place on the mountain walls. After four days, he finally reached the peak. This place was originally covered by white fog, but as he arrived, it was as if a veil had been removed, and the fog retreated, revealing a quiet and unique pavilion.
He looked at everything in front of him curiously. Suddenly, a light flashed, and a short and fat person named Daoren appeared in front of him. He bowed to him and asked, "Are you Langjun Cen Xiao?"
Cen Xiao looked curiously at this Daoren, who was not even as tall as him. He bowed to him and said, "That's me."
Daoren chuckled and said, "This old man is the formation spirit of this place, guarding this place for Langjun. There's still one more day, and the High Venerable One is here Just Now. Langjun must have exhausted a lot of energy to climb up the mountain. Please come in and take a seat, and have some water and food."
Cen Xiao touched his flattened belly and nodded. When he was climbing the mountain, he had not had any water or food for five days. Even if he was a descendant of the Nine Cities and had the Upper Dharma, he had not reached the place where he could not eat. He did not feel anything before, but now that he was relaxed, he felt thirsty and hungry.
Daoren invited him in and served a table full of vegetables, fruits, and water.
After Cen Xiao thanked him, he had a full meal and rested for a night. On the second day, he was full of energy and had completely recovered. He did not wander around, but stood on a stone platform obediently and waited. When the sun rose, a clear light pierced through the heavy clouds and fell from the sky. A handsome black-robed Taoist with fluttering sleeves appeared. His eyes lit up, and he jumped off the stone platform. He went forward and bowed respectfully, and said loudly with a clear child's voice, "This disciple greets Master."
