Chapter 392 - 242: 9 Nether Array Broken
Rows of Inner Sect Disciples from the Eastern Demon Sect were forced to the ground.
Some trembled all over, sobbing uncontrollably, while others looked utterly devastated, their faces masks of despair. Still others wailed loudly, cursing without end.
In the end, they were all held down and beheaded.
Severed heads, their eyes wide in death, tumbled into the sand as viscous blood sprayed from the wounds on their necks.
The other Ox Power Demons roared in unison, using iron chains to topple the array tower of the Heavenly Star Demon Summoning Array.
Over three hundred Demon Cultivators from the Eastern Demon Sect were stationed at the Heavenly Star Demon Summoning Array. Ordinarily, this would have been a formidable force.
But under the crushing assault of over twenty thousand Ox Power Demons, they were overrun with barely a struggle.
Yang Jing surveyed a pile of Yin Serpent corpses.
After the army breached the Demon Cultivators’ defenses, Jin Xuan had immediately fled. Even though Yang Jing had the Ox Power Demons scour the entire area, they found nothing.
Suddenly, several Ox Power Demons approached, dragging along another who was wailing uncontrollably.
"Great King! Niu Wuzong has been inciting the other Ox Power Demons and spreading rumors! He claims you’re a Righteous Cultivator in disguise and is trying to rally others to rebel against you!"
Yang Jing turned around and sized up Niu Wuzong with curiosity.
"Is there any truth to this, Brother Wuzong?"
Niu Wuzong was a trembling mess, completely speechless. He was also covered in injuries, likely inflicted by the other Ox Power Demons when they captured him.
"You were too hasty, Brother Wuzong. If I were truly a Righteous Cultivator in disguise, would I be heading to the Outer Realm with all of you? And if you wanted to be Great King, wouldn’t that have been your perfect chance?"
Hearing this, Niu Wuzong trembled even more violently.
"Execute him."
Yang Jing said with a wave of his hand.
Before Niu Wuzong could even beg for mercy, the Ox Power Demons at his sides swung their great sabers, lopping off his head in a single strike.
After the Ox Power Demons withdrew, Yang Jing gestured with his hand. The Demon-Catching Tripod flew up from Niu Wuzong’s body and landed in his palm.
When he led the Ox Power Demons on the front lines to seize the Flying Boats, he had of course left a contingency in place with the demons at the rear.
Otherwise, if the rear had become unstable, his entire plan would have been ruined.
The Wanhua Child had shrunk the Demon-Catching Tripod and hidden it on Niu Wuzong’s body, using the Five Elements Demon Qi to control him as he commanded the Demon Army.
"Master, Niu Wuzong grew rebellious. I wanted to see who would be willing to rise up with him, but I didn’t expect him to be captured the moment he sounded out a few of the Ox Power Demons around him."
"He was too hasty, and just made himself into a pathetic clown," Yang Jing said, shaking his head as he looked at the still-twitching corpse.
After toppling the Heavenly Star Demon Summoning Array, the captured Demon Cultivators from the Eastern Demon Sect obediently began to construct the Demon Exorcism Array. The original Heavenly Star Demon Summoning Array had already marked the nodes of the Demon Veins, which made setting up this new array remarkably simple.
A sprawling Demon Exorcism Array was soon completed under the supervision of blades and axes.
A thousand Ox Power Demons stood upon the Grand Array. As the array activated, they were instantly banished from the Demon Realm, returning to the Outer Realm.
Witnessing this, the remaining Ox Power Demons erupted in a tsunami of cheers. They could finally leave this meat-grinder of a battlefield and return to the Outer Realm.
With three Demon Veins converging here, they hardly had to worry about the Grand Array’s Demonic Qi consumption.
With each activation of the Demon Exorcism Array, the number of Ox Power Demons within the Demon Realm dwindled.
The final batch of Ox Power Demons stepped onto the Demon Exorcism Array.
"Great King!"
One of the Ox Power Demons looked at Yang Jing in surprise, wondering why he wasn’t joining them on the array.
Yang Jing simply shook his head and activated the array.
A few moments later, the Ox Power Demons on the array vanished completely.
The once-bustling Grand Array instantly fell silent, leaving only Yang Jing and the captive Demon Cultivators.
The Demon Cultivators exchanged glances. The Ox Power Demons had not placed any Restrictions on their Magical Power, needing them to operate the array. Now, their full Power was intact.
Yang Jing simply formed a hand seal for a Thunder Spell.
BOOM!
Thunder suddenly cracked in the empty air, as if from a clear sky.
A bolt of purple Taixiao True Thunder leaped forth, taking the form of an Azure Dragon. With just a few flashes, the dragon blasted the Demon Cultivators present into nothing but ash.
After annihilating all the Demon Cultivators in an instant, the Taixiao True Thunder did not dissipate. Instead, it coiled around Yang Jing’s body, weaving restlessly through the air.
Its brilliant light illuminated the dim Demon Realm.
"Fellow Daoist Jin Xuan, the Demon Army has withdrawn. The opportunity you’ve been waiting for has arrived. Why are you still hiding?"
Yang Jing dispelled the transformation of his Inconstant Illusionary Form Technique. His eyes began to shimmer with a Cyan Gold Light as he pushed his Grotto Dark Dharma Eye to its absolute limit.
His voice rang out, but the only answer was the crackling roar of the Taixiao True Thunder amid the silence.
The next moment, the Taixiao True Thunder circling Yang Jing suddenly plunged downward, burrowing into the earth. It struck a massive Yin Serpent that was slithering just beneath the surface.
Its iridescent scales were instantly pierced. Under the bombardment of the Taixiao True Thunder, the Yin Qi within its body melted away like ice in the sun.
All manner of Celestial Demons had been hidden within the Yin Serpent, waiting for a chance to launch a sneak attack, but the Taixiao True Thunder reduced them all to ash.
With a surge of Magical Power, Yang Jing returned the Demon-Catching Tripod to its true form. Its four legs plunged deep into the ground.
Dozens of Spiritual Light Chains instantly shot out from the tripod. They plunged deep into the earth, dragging out one Yin Serpent after another and pulling them into the Pot World.
