Ch. 1717 - Treasure Buddha Demon Court

The turmoil surrounding Vast Ocean Dao Domain finally came to an end.

As True Martial Mountain retreated into the void and moved on toward its next destination of sect destruction, the land where Vast Ocean Dao Domain once stood gradually returned to silence.

When people later came back to this place, all they felt was shock at the sight before them.

“It’s ruined. Everything is destroyed.”

“This entire land is finished. Not just Vast Ocean Dao Domain. In the future, it’ll be almost impossible to establish another sect on this land.”

Many people sighed in amazement, but were also deeply frightened.

It seemed that within the Upper Heavens, an extremely powerful new force had emerged once again.

Some of the stronger factions began mobilizing all their resources to investigate the background of True Martial Sacred Ground.

…

At this moment, on True Martial Mountain.

As one powerful orthodoxy and sacred sect after another was annihilated, the entire Upper Heavens seemed to tremble.

Yet the process left Xu Zimo somewhat surprised.

Among all the forces that ambushed True Martial Sacred Ground, not a single one belonged to the Myriad Immortal Nation.

He remembered that earlier, he had clashed with the saintess of the Myriad Immortal Nation, Miao Ruyin.

He had even nearly killed her.

Originally, he thought that under such circumstances, the Myriad Immortal Nation would very likely join the ambush.

Unexpectedly, all the attackers were unfamiliar forces.

These factions were most likely incited by the Heavenly Court.

Killing them was essentially the same as cutting off the Heavenly Court’s claws.

Finally, after a series of sect annihilations, most of the ambushing forces had been dealt with.

On this day, everyone arrived at the final target for destruction.

The Shattered Demon Sea.

This was an extremely mysterious place.

It was said that a great demon had once fallen here.

That demon’s unwilling roars and blood had tainted this sea region.

In the end, the originally pure seawater turned pitch-black, becoming a demon sea.

This place was then renamed the Shattered Demon Sea.

This land itself was unfathomable and mysterious.

Ordinary beings who came into contact with this seawater would likely be completely demonized.

That was because the sea possessed the power to seduce and corrupt.

As a result, most people stayed far away from it.

Those who lived within this sea region were either demonic creatures already accustomed to corruption, or powerful cultivators who sealed off small portions of the demon sea with supreme divine weapons and established their sects there.

The demon sea was hell.

But once you became accustomed to it, you would realize it was also paradise.

A paradise for cultivators.

Whether it was for tempering the body or absorbing the demonic energy contained within, the demon water was a fatal temptation for cultivators.

Thus, among the group that ambushed True Martial Sacred Ground, there was a Treasure Buddha Demon Venerable.

His Treasure Buddha Demon Court was established here.

It was said that long ago, Treasure Buddha Demon Venerable had been a monk.

He was an ascetic monk.

He traveled the world, seeing through worldly desires.

Later, he came to the Shattered Demon Sea.

At the time, everyone believed this was a cursed land, a place of countless deaths where one would die upon contact.

Only Treasure Buddha Demon Venerable did not believe it.

He attempted to rely on his own strength to convert the Shattered Demon Sea.

Unfortunately, he ultimately failed.

The resentment within the Shattered Demon Sea was overwhelming, its killing intent vast and boundless.

It was simply impossible to convert.

Even Treasure Buddha Demon Venerable himself was tainted by demonic energy.

However, though he failed, he gained certain benefits from it.

He discovered the wondrous uses of the demon water.

To others, it was an extremely sinister substance, but to beings capable of absorbing demonic energy, it was an immense blessed land.

Thus, he cultivated within the Shattered Demon Sea for countless years, eventually reaching his current Infinite Dao realm and achievements.

Not only that.

He also established Treasure Buddha Demon Court here.

In a very short time, the entire sect flourished and became a force in the Upper Heavens that could not be ignored.

Thus, this place became the final destination for the destruction carried out by True Martial Sacred Ground.

When the massive True Martial Mountain came to a halt above the Shattered Demon Sea, one could see that the sea stretched for tens of billions of miles, boundless and endless.

Sunlight could not penetrate it. Even the strongest flames could not evaporate it, and even other bodies of water could not assimilate with it.

In short, the Shattered Demon Sea was impervious to everything.

The entire sea was a deep, dark hue.

Upon closer inspection, one would see demonic energy billowing across the surface.

On True Martial Mountain, Xu Zimo frowned slightly.

He turned to look at Radiant Progenitor beside him.

“Do you hear a sound?” he asked.

“What sound?” the Radiant Progenitor asked in confusion.

“Is it an unwilling roar?” Xu Zimo murmured to himself.

He heard it.

And the closer they drew to the Shattered Demon Sea, the louder and clearer the sound became.

But strangely, he asked several people in succession, and none of them heard anything at all.

That shouldn’t have been possible.

It couldn’t simply be that his hearing was better.

Of course, there was another explanation.

The Shattered Demon Sea might be connected to him in some way.

Because as Xu Zimo sensed the demonic energy here, he could tell it was pure demonic energy, the kind that only true demons possessed.

Ordinary cultivation of demonic techniques could never produce something this pure.

“What connection does the Shattered Demon Sea have with the Ancient Demon Race?” he murmured.

For now, however, the main target was still Treasure Buddha Demon Court.

Treasure Buddha Demon Court was located on the eastern edge of the Shattered Demon Sea.

They were not the rulers of this sea region.

They merely lived in one corner of it.

After all, within this sea lived prehistoric giant crocodilian creatures, as well as pitch-black, indescribable beings.

These were all mysterious lifeforms native to the Shattered Demon Sea.

For Treasure Buddha Demon Court to rule or occupy this sea was simply impossible.

“Where is the master of Treasure Buddha Demon Court?!” San Dao shouted coldly.

This time, the task of annihilating the sect had been entrusted to him.

His voice was like waves of divine saberforce, seemingly condensed into substance.

As his voice fell, rumbling explosions echoed.

The entire Treasure Buddha Demon Court erupted.

From within the demon mountain, a middle-aged man dressed in black robes, with demonic energy surging around him, stepped into the air.

Although the demonic energy around him was pitch-black, Xu Zimo could sense that it was not pure.

Simply put, he was not a demon.

He was someone who cultivated demonic techniques and absorbed the power of the Shattered Demon Sea to reach his current state.

“Senior’s arrival is the honor of my Treasure Buddha Demon Court. I am the Governor of Treasure Buddha,” the middle-aged man said with a smile.

“My failure to welcome you personally is my fault. I offer my apologies to senior here.”

“Save it. We’re here to destroy your sect,” San Dao said.

“When you reach the Netherworld, remember to tell others. The one who killed you is named San Dao!”

Hearing this, the Treasure Buddha Governor sighed.

“Heaven cherishes life. I hope senior can show mercy just this once. Our founding ancestor overestimated himself. Going to ambush senior was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, an act of sheer folly. I believe that senior, and the power behind senior, have come to the Upper Heavens as an unstoppable tide. No one can stand in your way. The others of my Treasure Buddha Demon Court are innocent. I hope senior can see this clearly.”

It had to be said that the Treasure Buddha Governor’s attitude was very good.

At least among all the sects being annihilated, he was the most reasonable one.

He did not beg, nor did he act arrogant or show any other misplaced emotion.
