I Have A Dual World Seal

Chapter 1158: Chapter 1157: Celestial Demons Jumping Out One After Another

Ling Kunzi did not make an appearance; the ritual for Master Yun Ning was personally presided over by Master Jinghe, with all the elders and True Men in the temple present, while Master Yun Ning’s junior disciples conducted the Soul Sending.

The ritual lasted half a day, and finally, the coffin was carried to the back mountain for burial.

Lu Zheng and his companions were involved from beginning to end. Most people were unaware of the specifics, and those who knew because of yesterday’s events had no grievances with Lu Zheng, causing no mishaps.

After smoothly burying Master Yun Ning, Lu Zheng bid farewell, only to be invited by Ling Kunzi once more to the back mountain, accompanied by Master Jinghe and Master Changli.

"If you have no pressing matters, why not stay in Zhongjing a few more days?" said Master Jinghe, "Staying at Jade Hall Mountain overnight is certainly more comfortable than an inn."

He was unaware that Lu Zheng and his companions had already found lodgings in Zhongjing and assumed they had come directly to Jade Hall Mountain.

"Thank you, Master. We plan to stay and explore Zhongjing for a few more days."

Lu Zheng replied, "However, when we first arrived in Zhongjing, the Lingwu King personally welcomed us and arranged our stay at the Lingwu Royal Mansion for the night before we came to Jade Hall Mountain yesterday."

Master Jinghe understood, "Since it’s the Lingwu King’s invitation, then we indeed cannot hold you."

Though Chixiao Temple is splendid, being a Daoist temple, it’s naturally more comfortable than a typical inn but cannot compare to the opulence of a royal mansion.

Ling Kunzi nodded; he already knew of Si Lingxi’s contact with the Lingwu King the day before, and today’s invitation wasn’t merely to keep them as guests.

With a flip of the hand, three circular jade talismans, each about an inch in size, appeared in his hand, and he gently pushed them forward, causing them to float before Lu Zheng.

"I assume you aren’t lacking in elixirs and magical treasures, so accept these three Yin Yang Jade Talismans. Crush when needed, and you can unleash a Yin Yang Shuttle, as if this old Daoist had taken action himself."

Ling Kunzi stated, "Unless dealing with someone akin to your ancestral master, anyone struck by my Yin Yang Shuttle is bound to suffer injury or death."

Ling Kunzi was confident in this, and the Yin Yang Magical Power cultivated by Chixiao Temple indeed surpasses Innate Cloud Qi in terms of offensive strength.

A full-force strike from Ling Kunzi would likely challenge Divine Monarch Xuan Ruo, but that Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor would surely not withstand it, inevitably suffering injuries.

Consider it a protective charm for Lu Zheng when encountering the top figures.

Plus, three talismans were given at once.

"Thank you, senior!"

Lu Zheng, without hesitation, reached out to take them, observing the three circular jade talismans, each about an inch thick with Yin Yang Fish motifs on both sides, one fish protruding and one recessed; though uncolored, the inside of the green jade faintly revealed hints of red and white.

Seeing Lu Zheng’s delighted expression, Ling Kunzi nodded with a smile and continued, "This invitation involves matters related to Yun Ning."

"Oh?"

"It’s about the demon behind him." Ling Kunzi nodded, "That demonic qi appeared in West River Dao not long ago, apart from when Yun Ning and his friend from a hundred years ago were afflicted."

"Oh?" Lu Zheng’s eyes gleamed with light, "Are you suggesting...?"

"This old Daoist suspects another demon is using the Dream Transmission Technique to impact the world," Ling Kunzi explained, "Moreover, this demon appeared in Great Jing before."

"Who?" Lu Zheng inquired.

"The Supreme Profound True Profound Unextinguished Celestial Demon Lord, called by some as Unextinguished Celestial Demon Lord and others as Profound Profound Demon Lord," Ling Kunzi replied.

"Profound Profound Demon Lord?"

This name was familiar to Lu Zheng; records about him were found when Yuanlin was researching in White Cloud Temple’s back mountain.

"Wasn’t he sent away by Erlang... True Monarch of Pure Origin and Mysterious Dao?" Lu Zheng questioned, "And that was thousands of years ago; Yuan Mountain Temple was founded because of this."

"You are well-informed," Master Changli commented in amazement, "We came to know this because the name of that demon was praised in connection with that demon himself, and upon consulting the temple’s collection, I learned of this matter.

After comparing, we found the familiar demonic qi in Master Yun Ning’s talisman core matched precisely that of the Profound Profound Demon Lord."

"Please inform your Temple Master when you return to White Cloud Temple, so disciples traveling in the martial world stay vigilant; a Demon Tribulation approaches," Master Jinghe advised.

"Understood."

Lu Zheng agreed, then asked, "Do you know if there’s a Celestial Demon descended in Pingdong Dao possibly leading to a Grotto Heaven Blessed Land?"

Ling Kunzi and Master Changli were unaware, while only Master Jinghe had heard something, "I’ve heard of demonic traces appearing in Pingdong Dao, but wasn’t aware it involved a Celestial Demon or a grotto heaven."

After a pause, Master Jinghe continued, "The Court had previously issued an alert that aside from the Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor, traces of Celestial Demon descent were also found, prompting various sects to beware, which led to the discovery of a demon in West River Dao."

"I’m not certain about Pingdong Dao’s specifics, but aside from the Profound Profound Demon Lord, I am aware of a Celestial Demon True Spirit descent known as Primordial Fang Dog Demon Venerable," Lu Zheng said solemnly.

"Primordial Fang Dog Demon Venerable?"

Lu Zheng nodded, "We found a disciple of the Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor in Thousand Mountains Dao wielding Heartless True Desire Demonic Qi, and the cultivation technique passed on by that Demon Venerable.

During combat, we learned from this disciple that the Demon Venerable’s True Spirit has indeed descended."

Hearing this, Master Changli gasped in disbelief, "Profound Profound Demon Lord, Primordial Fang Dog Demon Venerable, if there’s a new demon in Pingdong Dao, wouldn’t that be three demons already?"

They listened, feeling troubled; when the Five Demons descended, it called for Erlang God’s intervention.

And now, barely after banishing the Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor, two or three appear in quick succession?

Not to mention that Fiery Heaven-Destroying Demon Dragon King in East Sea, who has also set sights on this realm, possibly descending anytime with True Spirit.

"A Demon Tribulation nears, turbulent times ahead!" sighed Ling Kunzi, "Looks like my days of leisure are numbered..."

Demon Tribulations aren’t rare, nor are the sporadic appearances of demonic beings, yet the simultaneous descent of multiple Celestial Demons is extremely rare.

Like ancient times when The Three Pristine Ones and Buddha descended concurrently, Ghost Immortals and Great Demons appeared together, Sword Immortals soared across the skies, Martial Gods shattered the void.

"We’ll simply eliminate those that come; other Celestial Demons aren’t as difficult to kill as the Heartless True Desire Old Demon," Si Lingxi stated calmly.

Ling Kunzi, "..."

Generally, it was difficult to eradicate the Great Black Heaven Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor; otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so arrogant in his early weakness.

Unfortunately, arrogance led to misfortune, and he provoked Si Lingxi, only to become mortal enemies ending with Si Lingxi incinerating him.
