Primordial Era: Reborn as a Qi Immortal, Steadily Cultivating

Chapter 94 The Demon God Arrives (Fourth Update)

When the familiar outline of the primordial continent reappeared on the horizon, thousands of years had passed since Ma Yuan re-entered Wuyi Mountain.

Ao Xuan's enormous dragon body traversed through the sea of ​​clouds at an extreme speed.

Ma Yuan sat cross-legged on the dragon's head, his mind calm, integrating all the insights he had gained from his travels into his already perfected Taiyi Dao Foundation.

However, when they were still hundreds of millions of miles away from Skull Mountain...

His Dao heart, which was in harmony with heaven and earth and as calm as an ancient well, suddenly jumped without warning!
A faint, anxious tremor emanated from his very core, flowing clearly through the causal pathways of the Daoist energy field that had long since become one with him, and reached his heart.

"not good!"

Ma Yuan suddenly opened his eyes.

Those deep eyes were instantly enveloped by a chilling killing intent!

"Something's happened in the cave!"

He took a step forward and stood up from Ao Xuan's dragon head. His gaze was like lightning, piercing through billions of miles of void, and looking towards the direction of Skull Mountain.

"Ao Xuan, return to your cave immediately!"

His voice became incredibly cold and deep.

"Yes, Master!"

Ao Xuan also sensed the unprecedentedly terrifying killing intent emanating from his master and dared not be negligent in the slightest.

He let out a dragon roar that shook the heavens, and on his enormous dragon body, which was nearly ten thousand feet long, the black dragon scales stood upside down.

"hold head high--!"

In an instant, his speed increased several times over!
The entire black dragon transformed into a bolt of black lightning that tore through the sky, ignoring spatial distance, and rushed madly toward the Skull Mountain Dojo, which it had not seen for tens of thousands of years!

……

at the same time.

Outside Skull Mountain, dark clouds gathered, and malevolent energy soared to the sky.

Three terrifying figures, exuding demonic aura and filled with malevolent energy, stood at three different points on Skull Mountain, completely encircling the entire immortal mountain in the center.

These three figures all exuded a terrifying pressure that was no less than that of a late-stage Golden Immortal.

The leader was a thin, middle-aged Taoist priest with a hooked nose and sharp, piercing eyes.

Its true form is an ancient, exotic golden-winged divine bird, born with the ability to control the wind and thunder, and its speed is extremely fast.

To his left was a burly black bear-like man with a body as imposing as a mountain, his muscles as bulging as a rock, and wielding a giant axe.

Its strength is immense, and its physical body is incredibly powerful; it is a powerful bear demon that has attained enlightenment.

To his right was a man in a green robe with a sinister face and a cruel smile on his lips.

Its demonic aura was extremely mixed, with a faint hint of devouring all things; it was a fearsome and infamous Devouring Wolf Demon.

These three demons were not ordinary rogue cultivators from the primordial world.

They are orthodox demon gods belonging to the Demon Clan Heavenly Court above the Thirty-Three Heavens, responsible for guarding a region and patrolling the heavens and earth!
At this moment, they were not using brute force to attack the protective formation that covered the entire Skull Mountain.

Instead, they joined forces to refine a bizarre array flag that was entirely black, embroidered with thousands of hideous ghost heads, and constantly emitted a foul and corrosive aura.

Black, malevolent energy descended from the banners, clinging to the invisible barrier constructed by the power of cause and effect like maggots clinging to bones.

It is slowly and steadily eroding the very essence of the great formation.

"Brother, it's been almost a thousand years! How can this broken formation still be so sturdy?"

The powerful bear demon complained in a muffled voice, its tone filled with impatience.

"Yes, big brother!" the Devouring Wolf Demon chimed in.
"The formation here is too strange, unlike ordinary restrictions. If we continue like this, who knows how long we will have to wait?"

"In my opinion, we should report this matter directly to the Heavenly Court and send a stronger demon god to break through it with overwhelming force!" The hook-nosed demon god in the lead snorted coldly upon hearing this.

A hint of greed and disdain flashed in those sharp, hawk-like eyes.

"Report to the Heavenly Court?"

He said in a hoarse voice, "You two fools, the abundance of spiritual energy and the profoundness of the Dao here are rare even in my Demon Clan Heavenly Court!"
Even more remarkably, golden light of merit flowed around it. What does this signify? It signifies that there must be a great treasure within this mountain, perhaps even the legendary innate spiritual root residing there!

"If we three brothers seize this incredible opportunity, we might be able to use it to glimpse a sliver of the path to the Taiyi Dao Fruit in the future!"

"But if this matter is reported to the Heavenly Court..." A sinister glint flashed in the bird demon's eyes.
"At that time, all the treasures will go to the Heavenly Treasury. The three of us brothers will at most receive some rewards, but there won't be any benefit for us at all!"

The mighty bear demon chimed in with a simple, honest voice, "Brother is right! Such a good thing should naturally be enjoyed by us brothers!"

Upon hearing this, the Devouring Wolf Demon was unwilling, but upon hearing the words "Taiyi Golden Immortal," its eyes were instantly filled with greed.

The three brothers have been stuck at the late stage of Golden Immortal for tens of thousands of years, unable to make any progress.

If we can really get this opportunity, it would be worth taking some risks!

This is precisely the fundamental reason why they were willing to spend nearly a thousand years here, in order to forcibly break through this formation.

Unfortunately, they ultimately underestimated the profoundness of Ma Yuan's protective mountain formation.

This formation is based on cause and effect, and its mysteries are boundless.

It has long transcended the scope of ordinary acquired formations.

Inside, there is also the powerful Golden Immortal Shi Ji, who holds the top-grade innate spiritual treasure, the Illusionary Light Mirror, and personally oversees the core of the formation, mobilizing the earth's spiritual energy from the entire Skull Mountain for defense.

No matter how much they try to wear it down, it's always like scratching an itch through a boot—it can't hurt the root of the problem.

However, just as the three of them activated the filthy array flags again, preparing to continue this slow and painstaking process...

"hold head high--!"

A high-pitched dragon roar, filled with boundless majesty and fury, suddenly erupted from the depths of the sea of ​​clouds above the nine heavens without warning!

The three demon gods felt a chill run down their spines and suddenly looked up.

The thick, demonic clouds were torn open by an invisible, immense force, creating a huge gash!

A black streak of light, carrying overwhelming killing intent, appeared in the sky above Skull Tower Mountain in an instant!

The light faded, revealing the magnificent and awe-inspiring five-thousand-foot-long black dragon.

And the figure standing atop the dragon's head, dressed in a blue robe, with a face as calm as still water.

"It's...it's a dragon?!"

"No! Who...who is this person?!"

The three demon gods were stunned when they saw Ma Yuan suddenly appear, and then their eyes were filled with endless ferocity.

They could sense that although the aura of the newcomer was as deep as the sea, it was still only at the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.

The three of them are all top-tier demon gods in the late Golden Immortal stage. If they join forces, they may not be afraid of him!
"Who goes there?! How dare you interfere in the affairs of my Heavenly Court?!" the leading bird demon shouted fiercely, trying to intimidate the other party with the prestige of the demon race's Heavenly Court.

Ma Yuan stood atop the dragon's head, looking down at the three demon gods below who dared to covet his dojo.

He didn't say a single unnecessary word.

He simply and slowly raised his right hand.

The next moment, a five-colored giant hand appeared out of thin air, covering the sky and seemingly about to completely envelop the entire firmament!

The giant hand, formed from the interwoven Daoist principles of water, fire, earth, and metal, reached down towards the three demon gods who were already dumbfounded!
The Dao Lord has returned, his rage boundless!
