Chapter 217 Destroying Demons
There's no point in talking when you can't see eye to eye. Wang Shanlong has merged with the remnant soul of the thousand-year-old demon, or rather, the old demon has merged with Wang Shanlong. In any case, he is now a complete demon. After laughing wildly a few times, he gritted his teeth and said, "Zhuo Yang, what are you talking about? Have you seen it with your own eyes? You're just talking nonsense!"
Zhuo Yang looked at him with a half-smile and snorted: "I have not only witnessed it with my own eyes, but I have also fought with several of these powerful figures."
"What?" Wang Shanlong was stunned for a moment, then burst into wild laughter, causing the surrounding black flames to tremble. "You're quite the talker, aren't you? It's all just something you imagined in your head, isn't it?"
Zhuo Yang shook his head indifferently: "Haven't you heard of reincarnation? Haven't you heard of descending to the mortal realm to undergo tribulations?"
Whether it's a forced reincarnation or an ordeal, who among the countless powerful beings of the Five Realms dares to say for sure? Even emperors cannot accurately predict whether they will face calamity, unless they are saints…
Hearing the sounds echoing in the cave, Wang Shanlong abruptly stopped his maniacal laughter and asked in a sinister voice, "You mean, you are a... immortal undergoing reincarnation in the celestial realm?"
"So-so, a Supreme Demon Lord." Zhuo Yang swept his longsword, his arrogant figure towering to the heavens. "A Demon Lord is the strongest demon below the Demon Emperor, and a major fighting force in the wars between the Five Realms. The Immortal Realm has thirty-six Immortal Lords, and the Demon Realm has twenty-eight Demon Lords with titles. The Underworld and the Demon Realm each have dozens of Underworld Lords and Demon Lords!"
Wang Shanlong was completely shocked. The surrounding black flames subsided somewhat. He asked, "Are you the reincarnation of the Demon Lord?"
Zhuo Yang did not respond to those words. He pointed his dragon-patterned longsword at Wang Shanlong and smirked, "No matter how well you speak, it's useless. I will show you what a demon lord can do!"
"I couldn't ask for more!" Wang Shanlong sneered a few times, his face becoming increasingly ferocious, his skin pitch black, his eyes like those of a wounded beast, horns seemingly growing from the top of his head, and his forehead bulging high.
With a sudden swing of his arms, black flames erupted, obscuring half of the cave space.
Zhuo Yang looked at him indifferently, raised his eyebrows, and immediately unleashed the Samadhi Demon Flame.
Azure flames soared into the sky, obscuring the other half of the cave. Under the blue light of the flames, the lava sea was also bathed in an eerie blue glow.
"Roar……"
Like the roar of an ancient behemoth awakening, a seven- or eight-meter-long blue horned dragon rose up behind Zhuo Yang. Surrounded by demonic flames, it was as excited as a fish in water, raising its head and roaring, then staring at Wang Shanlong with its huge eyes.
"What is that?" Wang Shanlong was shocked. Being stared at by the dragon, he felt a strong sense of horror.
Even though the old demon who has cultivated for three thousand years is still far from his peak strength, why would he act like this when facing a cultivator with the cultivation level of Nascent Soul?
Could the dragon behind Zhuo Yang be a real dragon?
"Wang Shanlong, you are a demonic cultivator. Now that you have seen my demonic infant, don't you intend to use your demonic infant to fight against me?" Zhuo Yang sneered and waved his hand towards the top of the cave.
Large amounts of dark clouds rapidly appeared above the spatial cave, with rolling lightning, as if lightning could strike at any moment.
Wang Shanlong's face grew increasingly gloomy. Calamity clouds? Zhuo Yang was only at the Nascent Soul stage. How could he summon calamity clouds?
The more he thought about it, the more confused he became. He started to doubt everything, even thinking that Zhuo Yang had used some kind of illusion and that what he was seeing was fake.
"I don't believe it!" Wang Shanlong roared fiercely, and swung his arms forward, sending a cloud of black flames rushing towards the dark clouds above the cave.
Whether it's an illusion or not, let's prove it with our abilities!
The towering black flames moved with incredible speed, and a massive amount of ash plummeted down, as if a doomsday volcanic eruption had occurred.
The next moment, the black flames crashed fiercely into the dark clouds, and a violent explosion occurred. The black flames, accompanied by orange fireballs, dispersed the dark clouds, and a large number of rocks collapsed from the cave ceiling, causing the entire space to tremble.
The explosion from the impact of the black flames had finally subsided, leaving a large section of the cave ceiling missing, though debris continued to fall. However, the dark clouds that had blanketed the cave ceiling gathered again, their oppressive force unchanged.
"Can't be broken?" Wang Shanlong swayed, completely unable to believe it.
Could it be that those dark clouds are truly calamity clouds?
Zhuo Yang watched indifferently, and snorted contemptuously: "Wang Shanlong, it's true that you're ignorant. You can't even distinguish the tribulation clouds? And you still dare to dream of shattering them? How laughable!"
"Cataclysmic clouds, are they really cataclysmic clouds?" Wang Shanlong's expression changed drastically, but he still stubbornly shouted, "What right do you have to summon cataclysmic clouds? That is the way of Heaven!"
The tribulation clouds are the will of Heaven, and it is true that they are the will of Heaven.
Zhuo Yang said calmly, "Who said I summoned the Heavenly Dao? It was clearly you!"
"Impossible!" Wang Shanlong roared hysterically. "This place is thousands of meters underground, filled with fire elemental energy. In addition, the Five Fire Demon Soul Array can completely block the Heavenly Dao's detection. How could the Heavenly Dao have discovered me?"
"The Heavenly Dao cannot detect you; that's the wonder of the Five Fire Demon Soul Array." Zhuo Yang shrugged and laughed three times. "You used the Five Fire Demon Soul Array to defy the heavens and be reborn. If the Heavenly Dao discovers this, it will surely send down a lightning tribulation to kill you. Of course, if you can survive the lightning tribulation, the Heavenly Dao will acknowledge your existence. Unfortunately, you dare not undergo the tribulation and can only hide underground like an insect."
"Why is the heavenly tribulation descending?" Wang Shanlong roared as he asked, a strong premonition in his heart that the heavenly tribulation was brought about by Zhuo Yang, or at least related to him!
"Actually, the tribulation was aimed at me." Zhuo Yang waved his hand and stroked the top of the Blue Flame Horned Dragon a few times, then smiled faintly. "Because I cultivated into a demon with a mortal body and made great progress in my cultivation, the tribulation would descend to punish me. But in the eyes of the tribulation, your act of defying the heavens is obviously many times better than mine, so the Heavenly Dao came after you."
Wang Shanlong was stunned, completely unexpected this outcome.
But one thing he was certain of was that Zhuo Yang had really screwed him over!
"Waaaaah, I'll take you down with me!" A mournful roar rang out as Wang Shanlong unleashed a torrent of black flames that enveloped him as he charged toward Zhuo Yang.
Zhuo Yang glanced at the dense, almost tangible tribulation clouds above the cave and said indifferently, "The Nascent Soul Tribulation, huh? If I were to face it myself, I'm afraid I would die. But now that I've teamed up with a thousand-year-old demon, I should have a chance to pass the tribulation, right?"
The dark clouds above the cave suddenly churned, and rolling lightning converged at a single point. Then, a bolt of lightning, five or six meters in diameter, struck down fiercely.
The Blue Flame Horned Dragon immediately coiled around Zhuo Yang's body, and all the Samadhi Demonic Flames in the sky shrank to the area around Zhuo Yang's body to resist the heavenly tribulation.
Wang Shanlong, enveloped in black flames, also arrived, and the lightning tribulation struck the two of them almost simultaneously.
With a loud crack, the entire cave shook, and the sea of lava surged and churned as if an earthquake had struck, sending waves of lava soaring into the air.
Before the clouds of calamity had even dispersed, rolling lightning condensed once more. Before the dust and smoke below could clear, another terrifying bolt of lightning, carrying immense power, struck into the dust and smoke below.
Next up was the third dish...
Three full lightning tribulations!
The calamity clouds finally dissipated, and the smoke and dust quickly dissipated as well. The black flames vanished without a trace, and the azure flames disappeared as well, leaving only two charred figures falling into the churning sea of lava below.
A streak of fire flew rapidly from afar, catching one of the charred figures, then rushed towards another, smashing it to pieces in mid-air.
