Ch. 912 - Chaos First Divided, Yin-Yang Splits Dawn From Dusk

A round cage like a prison stood upon the earth.

Around it was nothing but gray, gloomy demonic winds.

Inside the cage, the figure of the Sky Blue Demon Roc was trapped.

Its claws scraped against the cage, its wings beat furiously, but the cage seemed to carry a mysterious force.

Every time it touched the cage, it was flung back down.

“You trash, let this king out now, and I might grant you a quicker death later. The Ten Founders are long gone, you cannot hold me, so why waste your time? You there, blind man, I’m talking to you, hurry up and release this king. And you, old relic, can you hear me? I’m talking to you!”

Just as Xu Zimo stepped into the inner courtyard, he heard the Sky Blue Demon Roc shouting and cursing.

Xu Zimo couldn’t help but chuckle.

This didn’t look like a demonic king at all.

More like some street shrew screaming insults.

“Well, two more have arrived. Is this the appetizer before the feast?” When it saw Xu Zimo and the woman in white approaching, the Sky Blue Demon Roc shouted again.

“This little lass looks good. Once I get out, maybe I’ll spare her life, take her back and train her.”

“Founder, how goes it?” the woman in white stepped forward and asked.

“Little girl, who is he?” one of the elders looked toward Xu Zimo, frowning.

“He came to help. His strength is considerable,” the woman replied. “I brought him. In this defense of Heavenly Dao Academy, his contribution has been the greatest.”

“Fine then, let him stay aside and not interfere with the sealing,” the elder waved his hand.

“This Sky Blue Demon Roc’s strength surpasses what we imagined.

We thought we could seal it for a day, but now it looks like at most twelve hours before this cage shatters.”

“Then let us begin the sealing quickly,” the woman in white said with a frown.

She raised her right hand, and a transparent bottle appeared within it.

Inside the bottle seemed to be the starry rivers of the heavens.

Stars sparkled, the Milky Way flowed in reverse.

It contained a resplendent, dazzling, magnificent starry sky.

Whoever looked at it would sigh in admiration, “Beautiful.”

“The Ninesky Deepforce is ready. Please, founders, act,” she said.

“Good,” the blind founder nodded slightly.

At the sight of the Ninesky Deepforce, the Sky Blue Demon Roc’s face changed.

“What are you trying to do? I’m warning you, don’t come near me. When this king goes mad, even I strike myself! Even I fear myself!”

Hearing the roc’s furious ranting, Xu Zimo rubbed his forehead.

This so-called demon king was truly shocking in all the wrong ways.

“Can you shut the hell up?!” one of the elders, growing impatient at the nagging, snapped.

“Shut your mother. Try being sealed for millions of years, with no one to talk to, not a single word exchanged for ages. You try it. When I get you later, I’ll rant at you until you die.”

At these words, the elder’s face shifted slightly, but he restrained his anger.

Truth be told, his heart was unsettled.

Because none of them were sure they could truly subdue this Sky Blue Demon Roc.

With a bang, the bottle shattered, and the Ninesky Deepforce spilled out, releasing immense might.

Though only a few drops, the power within them shattered the very void.

Those few drops scattered into the void, as if trying to escape.

The blind founder waved his hand, and an immense surge of spiritual energy bound those drops.

“The Sky Blue Demon Roc’s true body is condensed of Ninesky Fiendforce. Suppress the fiendforce, and it will be suppressed as well,” the blind founder said.

Another founder, with immortal bearing and long white beard, gently stroked his whiskers.

He waved his hand, and his hair and beard lengthened hundreds of meters, covering the heavens.

“Transform fiend into purity, endless swamp of heaven and earth. When chaos first divided, yin and yang split dawn from dusk.”

The Ten Founders of Heavenly Dao Academy all stood calm, their hands forming seals.

None paid any mind to the Myriad Demon Cage itself.

“Heaven and earth boundless, the Grand Dao unseen. Ninesky Deepforce, follow my will, unite!”

…

With each chant, the Ninesky Deepforce above grew more terrifying.

It surged, filling the sky.

Within it, faintly, the eight trigrams appeared.

Each corresponded to heaven and earth, yin and yang, and the five elements.

The ancients encompassed all phenomena, looking up, they observed the stars; looking down, the patterns of earth.

From the self they drew close lessons, from afar they took examples.

The virtue of yin and yang in heaven and earth, the calamities of myriad beings.

Now, with the world unbalanced and fiendforce surging skyward, we take Ninesky Deepforce to harmonize yin and yang, to suppress the demon king.

The Ninesky Deepforce above evolved into a circular sealing diagram.

“What are you doing?” the Sky Blue Demon Roc shouted from below. “Release me, and we’ll write off our enmity!”

“Descend,” the blind founder commanded.

With a thunderous boom, the circular diagram spun and fell downward.

The moment it touched the Myriad Demon Cage, a force spread out, like a seed planted in soil, sprouting wildly and fiercely.

The sealing diagram carried immense power, trying to cover the Sky Blue Demon Roc.

The roc’s towering body began to hunch under its weight.

As the sealing diagram sank further into its body, the onlookers grew excited.

“It worked,” the blind founder exclaimed, trembling.

“Don’t you think you’re celebrating too soon?”

At that moment, a sinister voice came from within, followed by wild laughter.

The Sky Blue Demon Roc leaned against the cage, clutching its belly in laughter.

It looked utterly ridiculous.

But no one around could laugh.

They all stared in shock.

“The Ninesky Deepforce doesn’t work?”

“How could this be? Wasn’t its true body formed of fiendforce? Ninesky Deepforce and fiendforce are natural opposites, how could this be?”

As they questioned, the Sky Blue Demon Roc straightened its enormous form.

In that instant, beastly might swept across the heavens, the skies roiling in storm.

The cage that had bound it was torn apart with a single claw.

“What is happening?” the blind founder asked, face grim.

“Though I don’t care to answer, I can’t help but say a few words,” the Sky Blue Demon Roc sneered. “You think, in all these millions of years I’ve been sealed, that I never considered you’d use Ninesky Deepforce against me? Long ago, I altered my true body. Now, my body is not fiendforce. It is the true body of the Roc.”
