The Purple-Robed Celestial Master has turned into a zombie?! Who can stand that?!

Chapter 159 Peng Demon
The group of demons were cornered by Zhang Tianlu in the top floor of the Demon Subduing Hall, trembling with fear.

They had nowhere to run; they couldn't escape even if they wanted to.

Behind them was Zhang Tianlu, who had caught up.

These guys were driven to desperation and became furious.

"Zhang Tianlu, are you really going to kill us all? We've already been imprisoned in the Demon Subduing Hall, and we haven't done anything heinous. What right do you have to kill us?"

"That's right. For over two thousand years, I've been imprisoned here by you and subjected to lightning punishment every day. That's already miserable enough. You have no reason to attack me now."

"Heaven cherishes life, so don't push people too far. Even a rabbit will bite when cornered."

"Besides, there are so many of us. Don't think we're really scared. If you really start a fight, we'll all die together, and nobody will benefit."

"If a real fight breaks out, we'll drag you down with us even if it means our complete annihilation. It won't benefit either of us. Let's all back down and go our separate ways from now on."

These demons are now afraid of Zhang Tianlu. They never expected that this guy was so powerful when he was alive, and even more terrifying after he died.

They no longer had any intention of being enemies with Zhang Tianlu, and at this moment they began to beg for mercy.

Then Zhang Tianlu completely ignored them.

He stated: "Since you were imprisoned in this Demon-Subduing Hall, you have been stripped of all your rights."

You don't think that all the things you did before can be wiped clean just because you're locked up in the Demon-Subduing Hall, do you?

These demons committed countless atrocities while they were out there.

Countless lives have been lost at their hands.

Do you really think that being imprisoned in the Demon Subduing Hall for thousands or hundreds of years will erase everything?
What about the lives of those who died?
This is inherently unfair.

The original purpose of building this Demon-Subduing Hall was to temporarily imprison some demons with cultivation levels exceeding a thousand years to see if they had any remorse.

If they have a repentant heart, they can be released to work for humanity to atone for their mistakes.

But these guys showed no remorse and even thought about breaking through the Demon Subduing Hall to continue committing evil.

What else is there to say?

It wouldn't matter if someone as stubborn as this were killed.

As for having no reason to attack them? That's simply not true.

These guys have done enough to warrant their deaths 1000 times over.

Zhang Tianlu showed absolutely no mercy in dealing with these demons and monsters.

He took action directly.

He threw the Ten Thousand Souls Banner into the air, and the next second, a lightning bolt struck the group of demons.

Under the thunderous roar, countless demons were annihilated in a single encounter.

After their physical bodies were shattered, their souls were directly absorbed into the Myriad Souls Banner.

Zhang Tianlu's Ten Thousand Soul Banner began to rapidly absorb souls and grow stronger.

Zhang Tianlu's side also acted even more swiftly.

He summoned the Chun Jun Ancient Sword and the Celestial Master Sword from behind him.

At the same time, recite the incantation to kill ghosts and subdue demons!

"Tian Yuan Tai Yi, the master of military affairs. Protecting the world and preserving the essence of life. Wearing splendid robes and embroidered skirts, with a formal hat and blue turban. The Azure Dragon stands on the left, and the White Tiger on the right. Adorned with a dragon sword, and the inscription of the Five Blessings."

Commanding the divine officials, three or five generals. Evil will be slain, monsters will be destroyed. Blessings and auspiciousness will be bestowed, enlightenment will be revealed. Evil and monsters will vanquish, the Five Emperors will descend with their might. Protecting the world for ten thousand years, the Emperor's virtue will grow ever brighter. The Yellow Dragon descends from heaven, the Emperor's lifespan is as promised. The celestial laws and regulations will dispel demons and evil. So be it!

Under the blessing of the demon-slaying and exorcising spell.

The two magical swords released their power and became incredibly spiritual, slashing at the group of demons.

Although these demons all had cultivation levels exceeding a thousand years.

But Zhang Tianlu is clearly stronger.

When it comes to magical combat, it's clear that these demons are no match for Zhang Tianlu.

Just as he was going on a killing spree.

A tremendous cry of an eagle echoed from the depths of the Demon-Subduing Hall.

The next moment, a gigantic figure flew out from the depths of the Demon-Subduing Hall, accompanied by a terrifying whooshing sound and the clanging of metal against metal.

A beam of black light flashed past, actually knocking back both of Zhang Tianlu's swords.

Zhang Tianlu looked at the suddenly appearing black light and realized it was a huge demonic roc.

This demonic roc is the most powerful demon in the Dragon-Tiger Demon Subduing Hall.

He is also the only demon emperor whose cultivation has reached nine thousand years.

A demon can call himself a demon king after cultivating for 1000 years, and a top-level demon king after cultivating for 5000 years.

Those who have lived for more than 5000 years are the Demon King or Ghost King among demons and monsters.

Once one's cultivation exceeds ten thousand years, one becomes a Demon Emperor or Ghost Emperor.

The demonic roc before us has a cultivation level of over 9000 years.

He was the most powerful demon imprisoned in the Demon Subduing Hall of Longhu Mountain.

Zhang Tianlu knew this guy.

This guy was one of the strongest demons that were personally suppressed in the Demon Subduing Hall by the Celestial Master Zhang Daoling.

Before Zhang Daoling, the Celestial Master, attained immortality, he was personally enlightened by Laozi, who descended to earth to protect him.

However, because Zhang Daoling's cultivation and merit were insufficient at the time, he was not qualified to directly ascend to the Heavenly Court.

So Laozi bestowed upon him the twin swords and many talismans, instructing him to slay the six demon kings and eight ghost generals who were rampaging through Sichuan.

Zhang Daoling spent a thousand days diligently practicing and mastered various demon-subduing spells.

Soon after, the eight demon generals, each leading hundreds of millions of demon soldiers, wreaked havoc on the human world, bringing various plagues and diseases and harming all living beings.

Zhang Daoling set up a Taoist altar on Mount Qingcheng, ringing bells and chimes to summon wind and rain, and commanding divine soldiers to fight against these evil spirits.

They annihilated the eight demon generals and the six great demon kings.

Because the six demon kings possessed immense demonic power, it was difficult to suppress them simultaneously.

So the Celestial Master separated them and suppressed them, and one of the roc was imprisoned in the Demon Subduing Hall of Longhu Mountain.

That is, the Peng demon in front of us with 9000 years of cultivation.

This guy actually wasn't very lucky.

When he met the Celestial Master, he already had 9000 years of cultivation.

He was just one step away from breaking through to the Demon Emperor realm, or even transcending the tribulation to become an immortal.

Even if one cannot become a proper immortal and ascend to the Heavenly Court.

However, becoming a demon immortal is also extremely terrifying, but unfortunately, he encountered Zhang Daoling back then.

He was suppressed by the Celestial Master in the Demon Subduing Hall, and his cultivation was forcibly confiscated.

As long as he remains suppressed here, his cultivation will not make any progress.

Otherwise, this guy would have already broken through ten thousand years of cultivation and then broken free of the seal.

Zhang Tianlu watched as the Roc Demon King launched an attack on him, clearly indicating that this guy was his enemy.

Zhang Tianlu said, "Another one who's not afraid of death. It seems that the Celestial Master didn't subdue you back then. Fine, I'll deal with you today!"

You like being the first to stick your neck out, don't you?

Today I'll show you what happens when you stick your neck out.

Zhang Tianlu was unusually interested in fighting this demon emperor with nine thousand years of cultivation.

This guy is probably the strongest opponent he has ever faced since his resurrection.

Now it's time to get our hands dirty and start doing something.

Zhang Tianlu unleashed his twin swords once more.

It was aimed at the Peng Demon.

The roc demon in the sky also launched its counterattack.
