Chapter 138: Death of Cheng Tang
Haotian was fighting one against three and was not at a disadvantage at all. Even when the Emperor of Heaven appeared, the three powerful demon masters Bai Ze, Shang Yang and Bi Fang were left with no power to defend themselves but to fight back.

He even had the mood to tease Bai Ze: "The demon prime minister's plan is indeed good, but in the face of absolute strength, any calculation is useless!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Ze's face turned pale.

As the think tank of the demon clan, he always planned before taking action. When he and Shang Yang decided to attack the Heavenly Palace, he specially invited Bifang to support them secretly.

Unexpectedly...

Haotian hid himself so deeply that he had become a master-level existence without making any noise. At the same time, he could deal with the three great masters with ease.

"Your Majesty, you have a very deep plan!" Bai Ze sneered, and the Heaven-Destiny Pen drew a brilliant galaxy connecting the heaven and the earth, traversing the endless void, blocking the Heavenly Emperor's Dharma Image, and said in a deep voice: "But if you think that you can defeat the three of us demon saints in this way, it is a bit unrealistic!"

"Hahaha!"

Upon hearing this, Haotian laughed and said, "Of course I don't want to keep the demon minister, but I will gladly accept the Daluo Jinxian that the demon minister brought with him!"

The Golden Immortal is difficult to kill, and those with great supernatural powers are even more difficult to kill. Even if Haotian has the strength of a ancestor, he is not sure he can kill Bai Ze and the other demon saints.

Therefore, from the very beginning, he had his sights set on those great demon gods.

Only with the presence of two great masters, Yao Chi and Zhao Xuantan, as well as several Daluo Jinxians such as Fu Yuanxianweng and Chijiao Daxian, did he dare to allow those monsters to enter the South Heaven Gate.

"not good!"

Bai Ze's expression changed drastically.

While resisting Haotian's extremely fierce offensive, he tried to contact several Daluo demon gods who had entered the South Heaven Gate, wanting them to withdraw quickly.

but……

But there was no response at all.

“Demon Prime Minister, I learned this trick of catching a turtle in a jar from you!” Haotian’s face was full of indifference. He looked at Bai Ze and said with a smile: “I heard that the great witch Hou Yi of the Wu clan fell in this way! I just wonder if fellow Daoist Bai Ze feels sad for the loss of another!”

In the past, Houyi, the great wizard of the wizard tribe, killed nine golden crows with his Sun-Shooting Bow, which made the demon emperor Emperor Jun extremely furious. The demon minister Bai Ze then proposed a plan to catch Houyi in a jar, luring him into a dangerous area and then surrounding and killing him.

"you!"

When Bai Ze heard Haotian's murderous words, he was immediately furious, but he knew that the dozen or so great demon gods he brought with him were likely to be in danger.

Thinking of this, he no longer had the will to fight with Haotian, and turned to Shangyang and Bifang and said, "Retreat first, and we will settle accounts with Haotian another day!"

He and Shang Yang were both seriously injured in the fierce battle with Haotian. If they continued fighting, they would inevitably fall into a situation that would be disadvantageous to them.

To know!
The enemies of the demon clan are not just Haotian in front of them.

If they were all seriously injured, the barbarians of the Wu Clan would definitely not mind coming and intervening.

"Damn it!"

Bifang became furious upon hearing this.

He didn't expect that they had fallen into Haotian's trap.

But even though they were unwilling, they had no choice but to retreat.

"Everyone, goodbye!"

After watching Bai Ze and the others leave, Haotian had no intention of chasing them. Instead, he stood proudly above the sky, looking down at all the living beings in the universe with a calm gaze.

Only after Bai Ze and others had gone far away did he return to heaven.

He looked at the group of demon soldiers and generals suppressed by the power of heaven, and nodded with satisfaction. Then he released a terrifying pressure, which knocked out all the demon soldiers below the Golden Immortal level.

Then, he sacrificed the Haotian Pagoda and collected all the demon generals in the Golden Immortal Realm and a demon king in the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm into the pagoda.

After doing all this, Haotian took a step forward, and the Haotian Sword revealed infinite power, slashing directly at the several Daluo demon gods who were fighting with Yao Chi Jinmu.

boom!
The golden sword light illuminated the heaven and earth, and an unparalleled mighty force instantly broke through the true body of a demon god, causing him to feel a surge of ghosts in his heart.

In this heaven, there is a large formation that he had set up in advance to block the void, as well as numerous mazes set up by the Queen Mother of the West with plain cloud flags. People can enter but cannot exit. Even a Daluo Jinxian can't get out for a while.

"You demon gods, who do not know the destiny, actually dare to attack the Heavenly Palace. You are simply guilty of a thousand deaths!" Haotian looked indifferent, and his body was shrouded in a strong imperial power. His voice was like thunder, which frightened the few demon gods who still had the strength to fight. "However, God is merciful. If you are willing to hand over a wisp of your true spirit and be loyal to me from now on, I can forgive you for your past mistakes and give you a chance to reform!"

Now, there are still nine Daluo demon gods in the field, all of them are weak and their bodies are broken. Haotian's arrival has become their last straw.

As for the other Daluo demon gods, they were a little unlucky. Due to their carelessness, they fell into the hands of Queen Mother of the West and Zhao Gongming.

"I am willing to surrender!"

A demon god in the form of a lion immediately expressed his attitude.

Hearing this, the Owl Bird Demon God beside him roared, "Crazy Lion, you are a cowardly fellow!"

There are many factions among the demon clan. There are demon gods who swear to die rather than surrender, and naturally there are also demon gods who are greedy for life and afraid of death. The Mad Lion Demon God is a typical representative of them!

"very good!"

Haotian nodded in satisfaction, then slashed at the owl-bird demon god with his sword. The unparalleled sword light, like a galaxy, crushed it into a pile of powder.

"kill!"

The other two Daluo demon gods, seeing the fate of the Owl Bird Demon God, rushed towards Haotian without hesitation, wanting to drag Haotian to die together with them.

"Plain Cloud Realm Flag!" "Haotian Tower!"

Yao Chi Jinmu and Haotian attacked at the same time, and two top-grade innate spiritual treasures suddenly burst out with endless divine light, suppressing the two Daluo demon gods.

boom!
Seeing that the situation was hopeless, the two great demon gods chose to self-destruct without hesitation. The terrifying power caused even the heavens to tremble.

Fortunately, Zhao Xuantan acted in time, mobilized the power of heaven, and suppressed the void that was about to collapse.

"I'm waiting for you!"

Seeing this scene, the remaining Daluo Demon Gods no longer had the will to resist and immediately chose to surrender like the Mad Lion Demon God.

Upon seeing this, Haotian immediately offered up the Emperor's Banner and said in a cold voice: "Hand over a wisp of your true spirit and place it on this banner, then each of you kill 10,000 ordinary demon soldiers, and I will believe in your sincerity!"

"This……"

Upon hearing this, Yuansha Demon God, Xiaoyue Demon God, Chuanshan Demon God, Danxia Demon God, and Ximu Demon God were all a little hesitant and looked at the many demon tribes with pale faces.

Just hand over a wisp of true spirit!
Now their life and death depend on Haotian’s thoughts, and they all have this awareness.

but……

Taking action against the demon soldiers will undoubtedly make them cut off from the demon clan!
The demon clan believes in the survival of the fittest, and they often fight among themselves, and cannibalism is not uncommon. However, as a demon god at the Golden Immortal realm, he cannot attack ordinary demons without reason.

Because this is the rule set by the Demon King in the past.

Anyone who breaks this rule is a traitor to the demon race.

While Yuansha Demon God and others were still hesitating, Mad Lion Demon God could not wait to take action. The Daluo Golden Immortal raised his hand with the power to destroy the world. A group of ordinary demon soldiers who were knocked unconscious by Haotian had no room to resist in front of him. In the blink of an eye, they turned into a bloody mist.

"I am willing to submit to Your Majesty!"

After doing all this, the Mad Lion Demon God immediately separated a part of his true spirit and merged it into the Heavenly Emperor's Banner.

"Not bad!"

Seeing this, Haotian immediately nodded with satisfaction.

Then, an extremely sharp gaze instantly swept towards the other five demon gods.

Led by the Mad Lion Demon God, the other demon gods immediately followed suit, first killing ten thousand demons, and then offering a wisp of their own true spirits.

Dead Taoist friend, immortal poor Taoist!

If they don't want to fall into the disaster of losing themselves, they can only choose to obey Haotian's request.

Looking at the six Daluo True Spirits on the "Emperor's Banner", Haotian was very satisfied, and then looked at Zhao Xuantan and others: "This battle is all thanks to Xuantan Zhenjun! There are also immortals such as Fu Yuanxianweng, Chijiao Daxian and others! After I deal with these monsters, there will naturally be rewards!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xuantan and others all bowed in unison.

……

One day in the sky, one year in the ground.

During the period when the demons were fighting with the heavens, Han Yi was also constantly saving the souls of the dead in the prehistoric world, hoping to gain the favor of the Xiantian Yin De Avenue and complete the construction of the twelve reincarnations as soon as possible.

"Just a little bit closer!"

Han Yi felt that he was close to achieving perfection as a human immortal, and he couldn't help showing a hint of joy. He then set up a auspicious cloud and rushed towards the land of Kyushu.

There, there is the incarnation of Master Tongtian——

Emperor Shangqing!

Just now, he received a message from Master Tongtian, saying that there was an opportunity that would allow him to directly complete the practice of the Xiantian Yin De Avenue.

And this matter is related to King Cheng Tang of Shang.

At the beginning, the Patriarch Tongtian reached a consensus with Fuxi and supported Cheng Tang to become one of the six gods of Luofeng, and asked him to go to the underworld to promote the currency of the underworld, to achieve the goal of connecting the three realms with wealth and increasing the fortunes of the human race and Jiejiao.

Now, the situation in the Shang Dynasty has stabilized, and Cheng Tang is ready to pass the throne of the King to his son Tai Ding and is ready to go to the underworld.

after all……

"The Human King cannot practice cultivation" is a rule set by both the Heaven and the Human. If Cheng Tang wants to embark on the path of cultivation, in addition to learning Lugui to change his own bloodline, he can only give up the position of the Human King and practice the way of the ghost immortal!
Ghost immortals are blessed by the underworld and can walk in the netherworld, but they are not afraid of the shackles of heaven and man.

Soon, Han Yi arrived in Haodu.

This was the earliest capital of the Shang Dynasty. It would take another three or four hundred years before the capital was moved to Chaoge City.

"teacher!"

Han Yi entered the Imperial Master's Mansion and bowed respectfully to the Emperor Shangqing, who represented his status.

It looked quite strange to salute oneself.

Emperor Shangqing also realized that this was inappropriate, and immediately returned to his original appearance, saying straight to the point: "Daoyou Fuxi has given the current King of Shang a dream, asking him to give up his status as a human king and enter the underworld to practice! The purpose of calling you back is to let you escort Cheng Tang into the underworld!"
