Chapter 263: Chapter 262: The Arrogant Luo Hou Shiva’s Dance of Destruction spared no ally or enemy. If uninterrupted, he could concentrate on controlling it; but with enemies involved, its indiscriminate nature only hindered the mission assigned by the Demon Emperor. A Lust Demon King, who had successfully arranged her formation on the other side, started causing trouble. Sixteen exotic dancers surrounded her, twisting their bodies incessantly. She herself swayed to the rhythm, and an unusual magic power began spreading outward to both sides. This force was hundreds of times stronger than before. The demon soldiers, infected by the magic power, seemed to act as if overdosed on expired aphrodisiacs, crazily charging forward. Meanwhile, the Heavenly Soldiers got trapped in a pink haze of carnal desire. Mentally weaker and lower-cultivation ones were directly controlled by the Heavenly Demon Dance, betraying their comrades in the process. Nezha pointed both hands above his head, and a Great Sun projection manifested, radiating dazzling sunlight across the battlefield. The Lust Demon King’s enchantment over the Heavenly Soldiers instantly diminished significantly. Even the Demon World troops suffered severe weakening. Having regained his senses, Lu Xiong drew his longsword, raised it high, and shouted, "Counterattack!" The Demon Soldiers and Heavenly Soldiers collided directly in battle. Nezha glanced at Marshal Tianpeng, who stood nearby still dazed, his face full of irritation. "Seriously, buddy? As a Human Sect disciple, how is your resistance to this kind of power so poor? Don’t tell me you’re deliberately playing dumb!" Nezha could handle the Lust Demon King’s attacks easily now, but leading armies in battle meant commanders couldn’t just rush into duels themselves. Without Marshal Tianpeng actively volunteering, Nezha, respecting his affiliation with the Human Sect, couldn’t send him in. This made Nezha’s displeasure with Tianpeng reach its peak. "You laze around all the time, I choose to overlook it. But now, with the Demon World attacking, you’re still goofing off?" After waiting a moment longer, Nezha reluctantly commanded Yang Chan and Golden Light to step forward. Golden Light was at the Profound Immortal level of cultivation, and Yang Chan had only reached Heavenly Immortal at this point, whereas Lust Demon King’s cultivation was at Golden Immortal level. Nezha refused to send them to their deaths, so he handed them several magical treasures. Golden Light, trained by the Jie Sect, had never backed down in a fight! Brandishing two massive dragon-patterned hammerheads glowing with golden brilliance, she charged straight into battle against Lust Demon King. She had despised that sultry demon for quite some time! Yang Chan wielded the Treasure Lotus Lamp, releasing gentle cyan light to shield herself, while gripping a celestial sword in her other hand as she faced off against the remaining sixteen Heavenly Demonesses. She was furious with these shameless women, too. Showing off a bit of skin, and they dare openly flirt with Nezha! Meanwhile, Yang Jian’s encounter with Shiva was uniquely bizarre. Shiva danced awkwardly, while his trident fiercely clashed with Yang Jian’s strikes. The more enraged Shiva grew, the stronger his power became. His Destruction Domain intensified in might. Fortunately, Shiva’s resurrected Asura body had been rendered useless. While Yang Jian’s combat strength was formidable, his cultivation fell short against Shiva; coupled with Shiva’s magic-enhanced abilities, Yang Jian quickly found himself at a disadvantage. Golden Light, on the other hand, fared better. Her twin hammerheads swung relentlessly at Lust Demon King with unwavering pursuit, whose enchanting movements betrayed her vulnerability in direct combat. Although a Golden Immortal, her skills were all geared toward deception, leaving her lacking in raw fighting prowess. Yang Chan was evenly matched against the sixteen Heavenly Demonesses. Their cultivation overshadowed hers, but not one could penetrate the Treasure Lotus Lamp’s defense. Yang Chan’s celestial sword inflicted immediate heavy injuries at each strike. The demonesses could only continue dancing to delay Yang Chan’s advances. Nezha remained stationed in the rear, periodically using array formations to teleport injured Heavenly Soldiers back to safe zones. In truth, this Demon World assault provided an excellent opportunity for training the troops. Overall, the North Heavenly Gate’s situation had stabilized. Moreover, Nezha still had numerous contingency plans left unused. Everything felt satisfactory to him, except for his Marshal Tianpeng. The North Heavenly Gate faced the Demon World’s dance troupe ensemble; meanwhile, at the East Heavenly Gate, Yin Shou was engaged in combat against the Arrogant Demon King Buxun. Yin Shou was supported by the Thunder Department’s forces, strengthening his position considerably. With the Heavenly Dao’s suppression lifted, his cultivation surged forward without restraint. Cultivating Incense Fire Divine Dao could often erode one’s sense of self due to Wish Power, yet Yin Shou proved an exception. Once a representative of the Human Dao and nearly achieving Immortal Ascension, Yin Shou exhibited rare resilience. Instead of losing himself in Incense Fire’s Wish Power, he harnessed it as an asset. At present, his cultivation ranked highest among celestial gods, attaining Profound Immortal status. Coupled with the Heavenly Court’s divine position boost, Divine Thunder held significant counteractive effects against demonic energies. He now fought the Golden Immortal Buxun evenly. Both men exuded regal auras, making their combat a clash of sovereign forces, their duel heated and intense. Buxun, having lost his Asura bloodline, faced a drastic decline in physical durability—a significant nerf. Yet battling against a former ant who now matched him step for step provoked utter frustration. Meanwhile, Wen Zhong organized the Thunder Department’s Heavenly Soldiers below to deploy an array formation, launching endless blasts of thunderous strikes at the demon soldiers. However, their numbers remained insufficient, leaving the confrontation in a stalemate. Compared to the East and North scenarios, the West and South situations appeared far more dire. Gold Star Taibai, an avatar formed from Venus’ essence, originally pursued the path of slaughter. Everyone knew the fate of those who walked such paths in the Primordial realm. Realizing this, he shifted to a different Great Dao early on—a transition quite challenging even with guidance from a Saint, let alone for the rogue disciple Gold Star Taibai. As a result, he was currently stuck in a limbo state: possessing fighting capability but incapable of fully utilizing it, unfit for prolonged battles, and lacking talented subordinates in his ranks. As a Western Patrol Envoy, he had little left to supervise in the West under the domain of two Saints. Now facing the Jealous Demon King, the struggle proved overwhelming, forcing him to urgently request assistance from the North Heavenly Gate. The critical battlefront lay at the South Heavenly Gate, swarmed by two Demon Kings: the Greedy Demon King and the Gluttony Demon King. Gui Ling Saint Mother, having chosen to tread the path of the Immortal Dao, was only at the Earth Immortal level of cultivation. Yet her Jie Sect disciples obeyed her instructions willingly. Furthermore, her mastery over array formation was decent. Following her commands, a scaled-down version of the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation was deployed. It couldn’t eradicate two Golden Immortals outright, but it held the largest enemy force at bay securely at the South Heavenly Gate. Within the Palace of the Polestar, Hao Tian studied the four heavenly gates through his Hao Tian Mirror, occasionally conversing with Randeng, who responded with nonchalant "hmms" and "uh-huhs." Hao Tian’s ensuing helplessness was evident. Regardless, the situation seemed to be stabilizing gradually. But Shen Gongbao would never allow the Heavenly Court such reprieve! Suddenly, outside the South Heavenly Gate, demonic energies surged more turbulently. A black-clothed Daoist stepped forth, treading upon the Twelve-Grade World-Destroying Black Lotus, wielding a sword engraved with the word "Extermination"—the Destroying Immortal Sword. "Four Immortal Slaying Swords having five pieces—isn’t that perfectly reasonable?" Gui Ling, presiding over the array, froze upon noticing the black-clad figure’s sword. "That’s Master’s Four Immortal Slaying Swords... but why does it bear an ’Extermination’ inscription?" The black-clothed Daoist slashed violently toward the South Heavenly Gate. The pitch-black sword aura initially struck Gui Ling’s array formation. Before the sword light, the array crumbled entirely, incapable of resistance, then continued to split the South Heavenly Gate’s plaque in two. The broken array unleashed forceful backlash. Gui Ling, as its Array Eye, suffered severe injuries instantly. Fortunately, her mastery kept her alive—aided by the adamantine durability of her defensive turtle shell. Most of the newly resurrected Jie Sect disciples among the Star Lords found themselves sealed back into the Investiture of the Gods once again. Their revival would now require yet another victorious Divine Enthronement cycle.
