Chapter 1315: Chapter 1340: Quanyang Demon Emperor! Catastrophe Body! Chapter 1315: Chapter 1340: Quanyang Demon Emperor! Catastrophe Body! Puppet Demons roared, shaking the heavens, and waves of ferocious air surged forth, enveloping numerous Practitioners in the blink of an eye.
Countless bugs blanketed the sky, almost every single bug capable of destroying a Practitioner's Sacred Guardian Barrier, that nearly hopeless sensation made everyone's skin crawl.
“It's you!”
Roars echoed as numerous bugs formed a gigantic humanoid figure, who, with a casual swing of its hand, caused numerous Practitioners to die, their life force exploding out, devoured by the all-encompassing bugs.
“Run, run!”
Chen Xiaotian's eyes were splitting with rage as he stared at the sky full of Puppet Demon bugs, his face filled with anger.
Shu Ya next to him also had an ugly expression, his face flickering with uncertainty as he shouted, “It's him, it really is him, we were all wrong, it's the Quanyang Demon Emperor, this is the Emperor Tomb of the Quanyang Demon Emperor!”
Quanyang Demon Emperor?
Yang Zhen had never heard of this Quanyang Demon Emperor, but for some reason, ever since this Quanyang Demon Emperor appeared, Yang Zhen felt a loathing in his heart.
This was the first time such a feeling had arisen, even the initial encounters with Wan Quan and Duan Lang had not evoked this in Yang Zhen.
It was a feeling almost like wanting to slap this Quanyang Demon Emperor to death, sudden and inexplicable.
Next to Yang Zhen, Nine Dragons Saint exclaimed, his face looking extremely grim as he shouted to Yang Zhen, “Quick, Yang Zhen, get out of here, I didn't expect it to be the Quanyang Demon Emperor, how can the Quanyang Demon Emperor appear here?”
“What the heck is the Quanyang Demon Emperor?” Yang Zhen asked curiously.
It seemed as though after the Quanyang Demon Emperor appeared, everyone's faces showed a look of despair.
The Nine Dragons Saint glanced fearfully backward, the sky swarmed with Puppet Demon bugs, not knowing how many Practitioners' lives were devoured, countless Taoist Practitioners and demonic Practitioners included, utterly indistinguishable between friend and foe.
“The Quanyang Demon Emperor is a terrifying being,” explained the Nine Dragons Saint, “It is said that he is ruthless and vengeful, once single-handedly destroyed much of the Demon Domain, a portent of misfortune.”
The Nine Dragons Saint's face bore a shocked expression, clearly stunned by the Quanyang Demon Emperor.
Yang Zhen listened, his skin crawling, this guy was a monster, single-handedly destroying much of the Demon Domain, truly a fearsome fellow.
No wonder Chen Xiaotian and Shu Ya were like rats seeing a cat, even abandoning their Demon Patterns to run for their lives.
Who would want to face such a terrifying existence?
Beside them, Jeer Cat wore a sneering expression, saying, “This old man Quanyang Demon Emperor isn't as universally condemned as the legends say, destroying much of the Demon Domain, but it's more like the people of the Demon Domain brought it upon themselves.”
Yang Zhen, startled, asked, “You know this Quanyang Demon Emperor?”
Jeer Cat shook its head and said, “Only heard of him, there used to be a little girl in the Demon Domain, it's said she was the real harbinger of disaster, everywhere she went turned to ash, detested by all demonic cultivators. But in such a place as the Demon Domain, which wasn't already filled with catastrophe? The little girl was just a pitiable person.”
“What does this little girl have to do with this Quanyang Demon Emperor?” Yang Zhen turned and looked at the giant figure as the sky was now completely engulfed by the Puppet Demon bugs.
“That little girl,” said the Nine Dragons Saint with a heavy voice, “is the little sister of the Quanyang Demon Emperor.”
Damn!
Yang Zhen's eyes widened as he exclaimed, “What happened to that little girl afterward?”
Jeer Cat took a deep breath, then spoke in a tone heavier than ever before, “She was devoured by the domain's Lord's 'Thousand Bug Devour,' her cycle of reincarnation brutally severed.”
Hearing this, everyone around took a sharp intake of breath.
Yang Zhen suddenly stopped, staring dumbfounded at Jeer Cat, asking, “The 'Thousand Bug Devour,' severed the cycle of reincarnation?”
Doesn't that mean the little girl would suffer endlessly through three lifetimes of endless pain?
“Must every life endure the agony of the Devouring of Myriad Insects?”
Nine Dragons Saint nodded, and said, “Quanyang Demon Emperor was originally a scholar, as weak as a chicken. When the Devouring of Myriad Insects began, Quanyang Demon Emperor watched with his own eyes as his sister was devoured by countless insects, coughed blood for three days, was ridiculed by thousands, and then disappeared for a whole century. When he reappeared, he single-handedly pushed the lord of the Demon Domain into the Abyss of Myriad Demons.”
At this point, Nine Dragons Saint said in a grave voice, “The Abyss of Myriad Demons is a deadly place in the Demon Domain, not just any forbidden area, but one that can lock the cycle of reincarnation three times.”
Yang Zhen's face showed a peculiar expression as he looked at Nine Dragons Saint and Shabby Cat, and asked, “Listening to you two, it seems like you are very familiar with the Demon Domain. Have you been there?”
Nine Dragons Saint and Shabby Cat looked at each other, just about to speak, when Chen Xiaotian, standing behind the group, snorted coldly and said, “The Demon Domain is just part of the main world. It's just that during the Barbaric Era, a divine power practitioner sealed the Demon Domain within the Void Realm using an against-the-heaven technique. What's so strange about that?”
Chen Xiaotian glanced at Yang Zhen and said, “People later said that the little girl was innocent, but who knows the terror of the Catastrophe Body?”
Catastrophe Body?
Yang Zhen blinked and asked, “That little girl is a Catastrophe Body?”
Shu Ya, still feeling horrified, glanced at Quanyang Demon Emperor and said in a deep voice, “The Catastrophe Body is the most terrifying curse among all creations, its damaging capacity even greater than being despised by the heavens. This physique, not rejected by the heavens, can still influence the order of the world, bringing endless disasters to all things…”
“Bullshit!” Yang Zhen rolled his eyes at Shu Ya and said, “And you believe such a physique can affect the world's order? You actually believe such nonsense?”
“You…” Shu Ya's face changed, filled with anger, as he stared at Yang Zhen.
Yang Zhen didn't believe that any physique could change the order of the world. If such a physique existed, it would be outstandingly awesome, worse than being despised by the heavens?
Oh, if it really existed, wouldn't there also be the legendary Lucky Body?
Yang Zhen turned back and looked at the indistinct shape of Quanyang Demon Emperor with a curious expression on his face.
If he had watched his own sister being devoured by myriad insects, he would have destroyed the heavens and the earth long ago.
To hell with the Catastrophe Body. What's the point of a world that can't even protect one's own sister?
Roar–!
Just then, a thunderous roar came, and the massive figure suddenly burst into countless insects, swarming towards the group.
All the Practitioners witnessing this scene showed expressions of despair, desperately rushing out.
At this moment, who cared about the legacy of the Emperor Realm? Survival was the priority, and these insects were not to be trifled with.
Facing them was a Puppet Demon transformed from Quanyang Demon Emperor after his death, an entity that once destroyed half of the Demon Domain.
Chen Xiaotian and Shu Ya paid no heed to Yang Zhen, their faces rapidly changing as they rushed out in haste.
However, just as everyone was turning back, a mysterious golden light suddenly flashed amidst the overwhelming Puppet Demon insects.
Hum–!
The world hummed, and an aura that made everyone feel a jolt rose to the skies, exploding in a golden light that, in the blink of an eye, swept across Slug Shore Mountain.
“Demon Pattern Origin!”
Chen Xiaotian's face showed a trace of greed. He halted his steps, hesitantly looking at the Demon Pattern Origin amidst the endless Puppet Demon insects.
Shu Ya's face drastically changed, and he roared, “At this time, are you still thinking of assimilating the Demon Pattern Origin?”
Chen Xiaotian, unsure, watched as a figure swiftly passed by him, giving him a start.
Recognizing it as Yang Zhen, Chen Xiaotian exclaimed, “Yang Zhen, have you lost your mind!”
Yang Zhen waved his hand and said, “Now that I've seen the Demon Pattern Origin, what do I need my life for!”
