Controlling the Five Thunders and the Two Worlds

"Old devil!"

A flash of golden light appeared, and Wang Lingguan revealed himself.

He was still dressed in white, but now he was covered with a layer of light golden armor. His hair had turned crimson, his left eye was flashing with lightning, and his right eye was blazing with fire.

Endless golden light gathered in his palms, forming a golden seal in his left palm and a golden whip in his right.

The next moment, Wang Lingguan threw his left palm, and the golden seal turned into a beam of golden light that shot into the sky. Neither the Five Thunder Dragon Imprisoning Formation nor the Heavenly Gang Demon Formation, nor the Five Elements Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation nor the thirty-six Heavenly Gang Demon Generals could stop the golden light in the slightest.

The golden light instantly pierced through the five-colored thunderclouds and the pitch-black demonic clouds, soaring to the ninth heaven, drawing upon the ethereal energy of the nine heavens, transforming into a seemingly invisible, boundless golden curtain, which then poured down like flowing water.

The golden curtain merged into the void, its golden light appearing and disappearing until it vanished without a trace. But everyone felt as if they were separated from heaven and earth by a barrier, especially the thirty-six Heavenly Demon Generals.

"Old demon, instead of hiding in the demon realm after suffering serious injuries, you dare to stir up trouble here. Aren't you afraid of your demonic body perishing and your soul being destroyed?" Wang Lingguan laughed heartily.

"You don't have the ability to destroy my demonic body and soul." The Demon Ancestor's eyes narrowed, and he said in a sinister tone, "I thought that old bastard Puhua would come down in person. Why send a little minion like you to die?"

Wang Lingguan's eyes widened, a crack between his brows trembling slightly, seemingly half-open, yet his entire aura seemed to be ignited by raging flames, burning fiercely. "How dare you!"

Strictly speaking, Wang Lingguan's position was somewhat similar to that of the chief of the imperial palace guards. His rank was indeed not high. Although he was the Grand Lingguan of the Capital, his title was not as prestigious as that of Marshal Tianpeng, the Nine Luminaries, and so on.

But his combat power is actually not weak at all, or rather, it is very strong, otherwise he would not have been able to reach this position and become the legendary guardian deity of the Taoist sect.

Apart from those celestial beings and emperors who possess incredible magical powers, few ordinary marshals, divine generals, true lords, star lords, and so on are his match.

The Great Sun Mystic Light Heaven-Opening Demon Ancestor has a very prestigious name and profound Taoist cultivation and mysterious magic, but in reality, he is inferior to the Thunder God of Universal Transformation, the Great Emperor of the Eastern Pole Azure Flower, and so on. He is only on par with Wang Lingguan. At this moment, he is seriously injured, so he is naturally even weaker.

Since they were at a disadvantage but still tried to show off, they shouldn't blame Wang Lingguan, who already had a bad temper, for losing his temper.

"Look at the whip!"

Wang Lingguan shouted and flashed to the side of the Demon Ancestor. Although it was made of pure golden light, the golden whip that drew upon the origin of the divine weapon of the Heavenly Realm struck down on the Demon Ancestor.

The Demon Ancestor did not engage in close combat with Wang Lingguan. Instead, he flashed away and retreated ten miles away. With a flick of his hand, eight balls of demonic fire, demonic wind, demonic water, and demonic energy crossed space and appeared in front of Wang Lingguan.

Wang Lingguan brandished his golden whip, and the eight clusters of magic instantly dissipated.

"Am I not a nobody? Why is the old demon retreating again?" Wang Lingguan asked with a loud laugh.

"I will not act with the courage of a common man," the Demon Ancestor replied with a smile.

"I have sealed the heavens and earth with the golden seal, let's see where you can escape to!" Wang Lingguan shouted in a sharp voice.

The next moment, Wang Lingguan flashed and reappeared beside the Demon Ancestor.

The two flashed frequently within the great formation, each capable of instantaneous movement. The golden whip tore through the heavens and earth, magic split the sky and earth, and earth, water, wind, and fire constantly condensed and were continuously dispersed by the golden whip.

A moment later, the earth, water, wind, and fire that had just been scattered quietly gathered together and merged into the Five Thunder Dragon Imprisonment Formation.

Gu Zhao had already noticed this. With his left hand forming the Heavenly Thunder Seal and his right hand making the Five Thunders Technique, he chanted, "Heavenly thunder faintly, divine thunder booming, dragon thunder turning into water, water thunder surging, the earth god commands the thunder god, and lightning strikes across the land!"

The five directions of thunder unleashed their power simultaneously: the blue thunder from the east pierced the wind, the red thunder from the south shattered the fire, the black thunder from the north broke through the water, the yellow thunder from the center shattered the earth, and finally, the white thunder from the west was incomparably sharp, completely shattering the remaining magic.

The Demon Ancestor flicked his finger, and a ball of demonic fire transformed into starlight, shooting directly at Daoist Yansong within the Five Elements Formation. Daoist Yansong immediately sensed it and frantically fanned himself with his Taiyi Fan, endless Taiyi wind and fire enveloping him completely, but the demonic fire still managed to burn through the wind and fire, heading straight for his chest and heart.

But just as the demonic fire was only a zhang away from Daoist Yansong, a golden ray was flicked out from Wang Lingguan's golden whip and gently touched the demonic fire, instantly piercing it and causing both to vanish without a trace.

"It is impolite not to reciprocate, so take this!"

Wang Lingguan laughed heartily, his eyes shooting out lightning and fire, which transformed into chains of lightning and fire, sweeping towards a demon general not far away.

This lightning and fire chain appears ordinary, with the lightning chains flashing purple light and the fire chains burning red light. Its spirit is restrained, and it looks like just an ordinary chain with alternating purple and red colors.

But the demon general felt terrified.

He was knowledgeable; the lightning and fire chains had materialized from nothingness, and the lightning and flames had actually condensed into a physical chain—something unheard of!

"Demon Ancestor, save me!"

As the demon general shouted, he clasped his four arms together, forming the four-way hand seal, and gathered a ball of demonic energy to protect himself within it.

The Demon Ancestor's eyes flashed, and he released a ball of demonic energy, which merged with earth, water, wind, and fire, in an attempt to block the lightning and fire chains.

However, his magical power was inferior to Wang Lingguan's at this time. His demonic energy was broken by the lightning and fire chains. Then the chains wrapped around the demon general. With just a gentle wrap and twist, the demon general's protective demonic energy was easily crushed.

The next moment, the chains wrapped around the demon general, like a giant python coiling around its prey. Although there was no thunder or fire erupting, the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder and the Taiyi Divine Fire surged into the demon general's body.

The demon general felt his body stiffen, and the demonic energy within him was swept away by the thunder and fire. Then, his entire body turned into ashes from the inside out, and even his soul was completely annihilated and dissipated into the world.

With the death of this demon general, a slight flaw appeared in the Heavenly Gang Demon Formation. The Five Elements Formation, which had just been suppressed, caught its breath and immediately launched a counterattack under the leadership of Daoist Yansong, Daoist Mingyu, and others.

Wang Lingguan's eyes lit up; he had spotted an opportunity.

The Demon Ancestor was not weak. Although he was severely injured by the Five Thunder Token, he was still in his true form. I am merely a spirit descended to the mortal realm, limited by the Heavenly Dao of this world, and there is an essential difference between me and the true form. To kill him, I must draw upon the true spirit of my true form and magical treasures in the Heavenly Realm.

However, if the Demon Ancestor wanted to rebel, he would need the Heavenly Gang Demon Formation and the assistance of thirty-six demon generals.

At this moment, I have the upper hand. Although I can't defeat the Demon Ancestor in a short time, it would be easy to kill the thirty-six Demon Generals and destroy the Heavenly Gang Demon Formation.

In this way, one gains at the expense of the other!

Without hesitation, Wang Lingguan changed his strategy. While chasing after the Demon Ancestor, he also diverted his attention to strike the demon generals besieging the Great Luo Palace, sometimes with his golden whip, sometimes with lightning and fire.

Even though the demon generals defended with all their might, and even though the Demon Ancestor was distracted by rescuing them, they were still killed one by one by Wang Lingguan.

However, when the Demon Ancestor wanted to target the other elders of the Great Luo Palace, he was stopped by Gu Zhao or Wang Lingguan and could not succeed.

In a short time, all thirty-six Heavenly Generals were reduced to only nineteen.

No matter how you look at it, it seems like the Taoist priest is gaining power and the demons are losing power.

But just as Wang Lingguan became increasingly distracted by the other demon generals and rescuing the elders and disciples of the Great Luo Palace, the Demon Ancestor finally found his opportunity! (End of Chapter)
