Jin Ling Xian Xia investigates the truth in deep space

"Accept the punishment of fate, Demon Lord!" The old man's voice was deep and majestic, with unquestionable power.

The light instantly penetrated the Demon Lord's body, and the black demonic energy surrounding him dissipated as if it had encountered a natural enemy. The Demon Lord's eyes became empty, and his massive body fell powerlessly to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.

Seeing this, everyone in the Five Immortals Pavilion revealed an expression of disbelief. They had not expected that the old man could defeat the Demon Lord so easily.

"Master, how...how did you do it?" Jin Lingxianxia asked with a trembling voice. The Lingguang Immortal Sword in his hand was still trembling slightly, as if he was also excited about the outcome of this battle.

The old man smiled slightly, his eyes deep. "Children, the path to immortality is far more than what you have seen. The reason I was able to defeat the Demon Lord is because I mastered the most powerful force in the world - the Tao."

"Tao?" Everyone fell into deep thought after hearing this.

"That's right, Tao. It is the most essential power in the universe. Whether cultivating immortals or demons, it ultimately comes down to the understanding and application of Tao. Although the Demon Lord is powerful, he is lost in his own power and cannot comprehend the true meaning of Tao." The old man explained slowly.

Fairy Shuirou said softly, "Master, should we also pursue this path in the future?"

"Yes, but the process of pursuing the Tao is long and arduous. You need to continue practicing and improve your cultivation and state of mind, so that you can gradually approach the essence of the Tao." The old man looked at everyone with a kind gaze.

At this moment, a sudden and violent tremor was heard. Everyone was surprised to find that the Demon Lord's body was gradually expanding, and a demonic energy even more intense than before emanated from his body.

"Oh no, the Demon Lord is going to self-destruct!" The old man's face changed drastically. He quickly mobilized his magic power to form a huge shield to protect everyone in the Five Immortals Pavilion.

However, the power of the Demon Lord's self-detonation was so overwhelming that even the old man's shield seemed to be crumbling. Everyone felt an irresistible force pushing them in all directions, and their ears were filled with a deafening roar.

When everything calmed down, everyone found themselves in a strange place. It was a barren desert, filled with yellow dust, and no signs of life were seen.

"Master, where are we?" Lin Feng looked around and asked in confusion.

The old man said solemnly, "This should be the space crack created by the Demon Lord's self-destruction, which teleported us to another place. It seems that we still need to find a way back."

"But this place is deserted. How are we supposed to find our way back?" Junior Sister Dong Meng said anxiously.

The old man pondered for a moment: "Since this is a spatial rift, there must be spatial nodes. As long as we can find these nodes, it is possible to return to the original world."

Everyone nodded in agreement upon hearing this, and they began searching for traces of the space node in the desert.

However, the desert environment was exceptionally harsh. During the day, the sun blazed fiercely, the sand scorched; at night, the wind was biting cold, and the stars were few and far between. The Five Immortals Pavilion struggled to navigate this environment, putting their bodies and minds to the test.

"Master, we have been walking for several days, but we haven't even seen the shadow of the space node." The voice of the young man in green was a little hoarse, and the Wanhun Wenjing flute in his hand also seemed a little dim.

The old man stopped and looked into the distance. "Children, the path to immortality is inherently fraught with hardship. We cannot be defeated by the difficulties before us. We must persevere."

At this moment, a sudden gust of wind blew up, blowing up a cloud of yellow sand. Everyone hurriedly activated their magic weapons to resist the invasion of the wind and sand.

After the sandstorm cleared, everyone was surprised to find a huge black crack appeared in front of them. This crack emitted a strange light, as if it could swallow everything.

"Is this...is this a space crack?" Su Mo asked in a trembling voice.

The old man observed it carefully and nodded: "Yes, this is the space crack. It seems that we have finally found the way back."

Everyone was delighted when they heard this. They quickly approached the spatial rift, preparing to cross back.

However, at this moment, a cold voice suddenly rang in everyone's ears: "Huh, want to leave? Not that easy!"

Everyone was startled and turned to look. They saw a figure in a black robe slowly walking out of the crack. His eyes were as deep as the abyss, and he exuded a strong demonic aura.

"You...you are the Demon Lord?" asked the Jin Ling Immortal Hero in surprise.

The black-robed figure sneered, "Yes, I am the Demon Lord. You never thought I could be reborn after self-destructing with the help of the power of the space rift!"

"Demon Lord, don't even think about doing evil again!" The old man shouted angrily and used his magic power to attack the Demon Lord.

However, the Demon Lord seemed even more powerful than before. With a simple wave of his hand, he easily dispelled the old man's attack.

"Hmph, old thing, your strength is just so-so." The Demon Lord sneered.

The old man's expression changed slightly, but he quickly regained his composure. "Demon Lord, although you have been reborn, your demonic energy has been severely damaged. As long as we work together, we will definitely be able to defeat you again!"

Upon hearing this, the Demon Lord's eyes flashed with anger: "Hmph, then let's see if you have the ability!"

As he spoke, the Demon Lord launched another fierce attack on the people of the Five Immortals Pavilion. This time, his attack was even more fierce, making it difficult for everyone to resist.

"Everyone be careful!" The old man shouted, and mobilized his magic power to form a huge shield to protect everyone.

However, even with the old man's shield, everyone still felt the pressure. They knew that if they continued like this, they would be defeated by the Demon Lord sooner or later.

"Master, what should we do?" Fairy Shuirou asked anxiously.

The old man pondered for a moment and said, "It seems that we can only use the last resort."

As he spoke, the old man pulled out a yellowed talisman from his bosom. Mysterious runes shone on the talisman. He held it high in the air and muttered something.

"Children, this is my last trump card. You must follow me closely and use the power of this spell to return to your original world!" the old man said loudly.

Everyone nodded in agreement upon hearing this. They followed the old man closely, their gazes fixed firmly on the spatial crack ahead.

The old man suddenly pressed the talisman against the crack in space, and it instantly burst into a dazzling light. This light seemed to be able to tear through space and bring everyone back to their original world.

However, at this moment, the Demon Lord suddenly appeared in front of everyone. He waved his hands and a black demonic energy barrier blocked everyone's way.

"Want to leave? Not that easy!" The Demon Lord sneered.

The old man's face changed drastically: "Demon Lord, don't try to stop us!"

As he spoke, the old man once again activated the talisman, trying to break through the Demon Lord's obstruction. However, the Demon Lord was too powerful, and the talisman's light gradually dimmed.

"Hmph, old thing, you'd better surrender obediently." The Demon Lord sneered.

The old man gritted his teeth and said, "Demon Lord, don't be too proud! Even if we can't go back, we will never let you succeed!"

At this moment, a strange light suddenly emanated from everyone in the Five Immortals Pavilion. This light was warm and gentle, as if it could dispel all darkness.

"Master, look!" Jin Lingxianxia shouted in surprise.

The old man turned around and saw that everyone in the Five Immortals Pavilion was surrounded by a faint light. This light seemed to be transformed from the faith and hope deep in their hearts, making them extremely powerful at this moment.

"Children, this is the strength in your heart. As long as you have hope in your hearts, nothing can stop you from moving forward!" the old man said excitedly.

Under the illumination of the light, the strength of the people in the Five Immortals Pavilion was greatly enhanced. They launched a fierce attack on the Demon Lord again. This time, their attack was more fierce, making it difficult for the Demon Lord to resist.

"You...how could you become so powerful?" the Demon Lord asked in horror.

The Golden Spirit Immortal Hero snorted coldly: "Demon Lord, you have committed many evil deeds, today is your end!"

As he spoke, he swung the Spirit Light Immortal Sword towards the Demon Lord again. This time, the sword light was like a dragon, directly splitting the Demon Lord's body in two.

The Demon Lord's body gradually dissipated into the void, and his voice echoed in the air: "Just wait for me, I will be back sooner or later!"

The people of the Five Immortals Pavilion ignored the Demon Lord's threats. They knew that as long as they held onto hope and united as one, nothing could stop them from moving forward.

Under the illumination of the light, they found the location of the space node. Everyone worked together and used the power of the space node to return to their original world.

When they returned to the Five Immortals Pavilion a few days later, the disciples of the Five Immortals Pavilion gathered around them upon seeing their safe return.

"You guys are back! That's great!"

"Where's the Demon Lord? Was he defeated by you?"

In response to the disciples' questions, everyone in the Five Immortals Pavilion smiled at each other. They knew that although this battle was difficult, they had ultimately won.

The old man looked at his disciples, his heart filled with satisfaction and pride. He knew that these disciples had grown into true immortal cultivators, and they would contribute their strength to the peace and tranquility of the immortal cultivation world.

However, just as everyone was immersed in the joy of victory, an even more shocking news came.

"Master, this is bad! The remnants of the Demon Lord are causing chaos everywhere in the world of immortal cultivation. What should we do?" A disciple came running to report.

The old man's expression instantly grew serious upon hearing this. He knew that even though the Demon Lord had been defeated, his remnants were still a formidable threat.

"Children, it seems we have a new mission." The old man said slowly.

Upon hearing this, everyone in the Five Immortals Pavilion nodded in agreement. They knew that the path to immortality was filled with difficulties and obstacles, but as long as they held onto hope and united as one, nothing could stop them from moving forward.

Thus, the Five Immortals Pavilion set out on their journey again. They traveled through every corner of the world of immortal cultivation and engaged in fierce battles with the remnants of the Demon Lord.

Every battle was full of hardships and dangers, but the people of the Five Immortals Pavilion never retreated. With their firm belief and strong strength, they gradually defeated the remaining followers of the Demon Lord one by one.

However, just when they were about to achieve final victory, a more powerful enemy appeared.

"Are you the disciples of the Five Immortals Pavilion? I heard that you defeated the Demon Lord. I want to see if you have the ability to do so!" A figure in a black robe slowly walked out of the void. His eyes were as deep as the abyss, and a strong demonic aura emanated from his body.

Everyone in the Five Immortals Pavilion looked at the black-robed man in front of them in surprise. They didn't expect that there was someone more powerful than the Demon Lord.

"Who are you?" Jin Lingxianxia asked vigilantly, his Lingguang Immortal Sword already tightly grasped in his hand, ready to deal with the enemy's attack at any time.

The black-robed man sneered, "I am the Demon Lord's senior brother, the Demon Emperor. He suffered at your hands, so naturally I must seek justice for him."

"Demon Emperor?" The old man's face turned extremely solemn upon hearing this. He knew that the Demon Emperor was far more powerful than the Demon Lord, and this battle would probably be extremely difficult.

"Yes, it's me. Are you ready to accept the punishment of fate?" The Demon Emperor's voice was as piercing as ice, making people feel cold.
