Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming-Chapter 421 - 418 Heavenly Demon Treasure: The Struggle of the Daoist Demon

War God Palace!

It was not only a huge palace radiating endless majesty, but also a massive Grotto Heaven spanning tens of thousands of miles.

This was the Daoist training ground of Ancestor Zhan Tian, also the mobile palace from which Ancestor Zhan Tian dominated all realms.

In reality, the War God Palace was not originally owned by Ancestor Zhan Tian.

The palace was initially the residence of the War God, a mighty being from the Heavenly God World who had achieved the Eternal Realm. The War God had gathered countless resources and commanded his subordinates to build this grand Grotto Heaven and cultivation treasure ground over ten thousand years.

In his early years when Ancestor Zhan Tian had just reached the Golden Immortal status, the relationship between Biluo Great World and the Heavenly God World was not as tense. However, during his visit to the Heavenly God World to discuss the Dao with the powerful beings there, he faced humiliation by the gods, with the War God being the most arrogant among them.

Later, when the Ancient Great Tribulation erupted, the War God, being the most enthusiastic about invading the Biluo Great World, personally descended to the battlefield. Unexpectedly, before he could even enter the Biluo Great World, Ancestor Zhan Tian killed him in the Outer Void.

Being killed by someone he had previously looked down upon was undoubtedly a humiliation for the War God.

But what added to the disgrace of the gods from the Heavenly God World was that Ancestor Zhan Tian brazenly broke into the Heavenly God World, seized the War God Palace, and audaciously named his sect after it.

Because of this incident, the Heavenly God World became a laughingstock among the other Great Worlds for a long time. Meanwhile, Ancestor Zhan Tian, who executed this bold move, became extremely famous, growing stronger with each battle and stepping on the corpses of powerful beings, ultimately advancing towards the Daluo path.

The great catastrophe was a horrifying disaster for most beings.

However, for a very few, it was an opportunity to achieve the Supreme Dao Technique.

Obviously, Ancestor Zhan Tian was one such figure.

However, this also depended on the world's foundation.

Because of the profound foundations of the Biluo Great World, it was able to produce several great powers to contend against invaders from other realms. In contrast, medium worlds like the Red Flame Demon Realm could at most produce a few Profound Immortals, with the achievement of the Golden Immortal being incredibly difficult, not to mention powerhouses in the Eternal or Creation Realms.

Inside the hall, Ancestor Zhan Tian sat majestically above, with a square face and a tall, impressive physique.

He could only be described as imposing; though his body seemed only slightly taller than an average person, at a glance, he appeared mountainous and monumental, like a grand giant seated at the center of the world, inspiring awe in all who saw him.

Below, on both sides, sat several beings with formidable and unfathomable auras.

They were the powerhouses beyond the Immortal Realm of War God Palace, the foundation of War God Palace's dominance in the Southern Domain.

Outside the hall, Daoist Guanxing stepped in gradually.

"Ancestor."

He bowed deeply to Ancestor Zhan Tian above.

Ancestor Zhan Tian, whose eyes had been closed as if traversing outer spaces, slowly opened them.

His eyes seemed to contain countless stars coming into and out of existence, as well as myriad scenes of the cosmic void, which quickly disappeared.

"How is it?"

Ancestor Zhan Tian turned his gaze towards Guanxing, his voice resonating like a great bell, shocking the void to its core.

"Reporting to the Ancestor, the strongholds of various Demon Sects across all regions have been thoroughly surveyed by our joint efforts, including those in other domains. After all, it's not difficult for those Demon Sect Cultists to travel between places. However, aside from the registered locations of the Demon Sects in other regions, the details regarding other divisions are less clear," explained Daoist Guanxing. "Our investigations in the Southern Domain have been the clearest. The only issue is that we haven't been able to determine the exact location of the strongest Heavenly Demon Sect, only a rough area.

Now, the opinion of several Daoist fellows is that there is no need to delay any further for just one Heavenly Demon Sect. Otherwise, if too much time passes, unexpected issues might arise."

"Hmm."

Ancestor Zhan Tian nodded slightly. "The Heavenly Demon Sect was a force meticulously nurtured by the Heavenly Demon Great World in the past, indeed causing considerable trouble for various forces back then, and even garnered rewards from the Demon Realm, being bestowed the Supreme Demon Treasure called Heavenly Demon Treasure by the Demon Ancestor.

This treasure is not only immensely powerful and wonderfully versatile, creating its own space, capable of traversing the void and concealing its form. The reason those remnants of the Heavenly Demon Realm could wreak havoc for so long was due to this Demon Treasure, which allowed them to evade your inspections."

"Then, Ancestor, what should we do now…"

"Just proceed as you've all considered," said Ancestor Zhan Tian slowly. "The Demon Sects, without the backing of various realms, aren't a significant force to be reckoned with and ought to have been exterminated years ago if not for particular reasons.

Now that the Biluo Great World has begun its campaign in the void, there's no need to spare them—just eradicate them directly.

As for the Heavenly Demon Sect, haven't you already identified a general location? Just send more powerful beings there to use various Secret Techniques and Immortal Treasures to scour the heavens, earth, and void multiple times; I refuse to believe they can't be found.

A mere Heavenly Demon Treasure turning our Biluo Great World upside down? I think not."

"Yes, Ancestor."

Daoist Guanxing bowed deeply. "I will communicate this to all parties and gather the sects to prepare for action."

Though he held a high position within War God Palace and was renowned for his accomplishment in the Proving Dao through the Art of Prediction, making him on par with those two Proven Immortal Realm powerhouses of War God Palace, he always maintained due respect towards Ancestor Zhan Tian.

This respect was not just because Ancestor Zhan Tian was their founding patriarch, but also because it was thanks to the latter's extensive care that Daoist Guanxing could reach his current status in the Dao.

Otherwise, though his strategies could have made him stand out among his peers from the start, his initial cultivation talents were severely lacking—it was Ancestor Zhan Tian who had boldly nurtured him against all dissenting opinions.

Although he was first-rate in wisdom, strategy, vision, and insight, he always showed respect to this overwhelmingly powerful ancestor, who had shown him such great kindness.

Moreover, it was because of Ancestor Zhan Tian that War God Palace could intimidate all sides, not because of Daoist Guanxing himself.

Just as in the Beast Taming Sect, Gui Ling Ancestor now had a resounding reputation, having achieved Undying status and possessing exceptional powers in Prediction, surely leading the Beast Taming Sect to even greater heights. However, his status within the sect could only rank second. The real spiritual pillar of the Beast Taming Sect had to be Jue Tian Ancestor.

This was simply because Jue Tian Ancestor's war power far exceeded that of Gui Ling Ancestor.

Powerful war power was not only crucial for a Sect when facing a crisis, but also served as a deterrent to other Sects, maintaining one's own strong foundation in normal times.

"Go ahead."

Ancestor Zhan Tian said, "There's not much happening in the other domains either, and though we cannot completely eradicate the Demon Sect in a short period of time, as long as we kill those great powers from the Demon Sect who reside in their main temple, the remaining Demon Sect Cultists won't be able to cause any trouble. It's only a matter of time before they're completely wiped out.

The only thing you need to be careful about is the Heavenly Demon Sect. There might still be a few Supreme Heavenly Demons hidden within the Heavenly Demon Treasure, so find several Daoist Fellows with profound Dao Cultivation to join the search. Don't be careless and suffer losses; it's not worth it."

"Are there still Supreme Heavenly Demons left?"

Daoist Guanxing raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise on his face.

"It's hard to say."

Ancestor Zhan Tian pondered briefly and said, "At the end of the Great Tribulation, when Grandmaster Ancestor Taixuan used the Star Shifting Technique to transfer Biluo to the Cosmic Void, relocating it to this Star Domain, all powerful beings knew that the great momentum had passed. Some were still struggling in their death throes, some wanted to make a last-ditch effort, and many more were barely surviving, stalling for time, and trying to reconnect with other realms.

Among these powerful beings, of course, some harbored hope of pretending to be dead to escape and continue living. I have had suspicions, but I have never had any evidence.

If those guys were feigning death, they are certainly now hidden in the Demon Sect, especially since the Heavenly Demon Treasure has the strongest ability to conceal their fate and presence. This is why I am warning you, do not take the Demon Sect lightly and end up creating problems."

Although Ancestor Zhan Tian had proven his Dao through martial prowess, he had lived for countless years, seen a great deal, and was experienced. Even though he did not master the Art of Prediction, his actions were meticulous and orderly.

Otherwise, when Daoist Guanxing was not yet helping him manage the War God Palace in the early years, it was Ancestor Zhan Tian alone passing on the Daoist techniques and developing the Sect's power. Without some methods, he wouldn't have been able to grow the War God Palace so strong, especially under the suppression of other powerful beings from all realms, and the extra targeting from the Heavenly God World..

"Rest assured, Ancestor, I have already made arrangements for this."

Daoist Guanxing said, "Although I have not yet discovered the base of the Heavenly Demon Sect, nor do I know the truth about the Heavenly Demon Sect, after many predictions with several Daoist Fellows, we have also vaguely sensed something, so we have prepared various countermeasures."

"Hmm."

Ancestor Zhan Tian nodded, "I trust you with this matter, since you have a plan in mind. Go ahead and do it."

"Yes, Ancestor."

Daoist Guanxing bowed and turned towards the grand hall they had come from.

...

In the Cultivation World, a sense of oppressive tension akin to the calm before a storm began to build, growing increasingly intense over the years, making many keen-nosed cultivators uneasy.

Ordinary cultivators, although not overly concerned, instinctively had some doubts, especially those in neutral territories. Some Loose Cultivators felt compelled to move to the Major Sect domains to seek temporary refuge.

However, when these cultivators reached the domains of the Major Sects, they were shocked to find that these Major Sects were mobilizing large forces, dispatching teams of Disciples, and preparing as if for battle.

"Who are they going to fight?"

Not only the visiting Loose Cultivators were puzzled, but also the cultivators from the local Sects and markets were puzzled, thinking, "Could it be that they are going to battle against an enemy Sect? Haven't heard of any major movements in recent years!"

Other Sects were still manageable, but when the Beast Taming Sect also started appearing with squads of disciples boarding tower ships, preparing to set out as if ready for battle, it caused a stir among the countless markets' Cultivators. Suddenly, the whole city was abuzz with speculation and countless rumors spread everywhere. Numerous communication talismans flew in disarray, carrying news of the Beast Taming Sect's movement back to inform their Sect.

"What's going on?"

"Isn't the Beast Taming Sect currently battling the Red Flame Demon Realm? How can they still have the energy to dispatch so many disciples? Have they discovered another world and plan to fight yet another realm?"

While countless Cultivators in the market were discussing fervently, they suddenly discovered that those tower ships had all flown to the airspace above the market.

At the same time, some fluctuations from battles erupted in the market.

The commotion wasn't huge because those who took action were all Elders of the Beast Taming Sect with profound Cultivation.

Even a few Supreme Elders who had already achieved Immortal Dao had joined in the effort.

Those they subdued, were all Demon Cultivators from various sects of the Demon Sect infiltrated among them.

When many Cultivators discovered that the person next to them was a Demon Cultivator, they couldn't help but be greatly shocked.

In the market, some Demon Cultivators who had not yet been captured saw this and their faces changed dramatically, fully aware that their presence had been exposed. The Beast Taming Sect was planning to settle accounts with them.

Even if they had not been exposed yet, with the Beast Taming Sect capturing so many Demon Cultivators out of the market at once, there would certainly be more powerful beings conducting a detailed investigation afterwards, and their tracks would still be exposed eventually.

Thus, those Demon Cultivators who had not been captured yet started to react violently, employing Escape Skills in an attempt to flee.

But with so many tower ships hovering above the market and countless disciples having laid down a net-like War Formation sealing the four directions of the Void, they could hardly let these Demon Cultivators escape.

Of course, the main reason was that there were no Demon Immortals or higher realm beings here. Relying solely on these Demon Cultivators, who at best possessed the Primordial Spirit Realm, escaping was naturally impossible.

While there were many Demon Immortals from the Demon Sect who did not wish to come here and personally select resources from the Red Flame Demon Realm, the key was they dared not come.

The Beast Taming Sect would undoubtedly have set up special prohibitions in their own market. While Immortals from other Sects could freely enter, Demon Immortals were different.

Even if a Demon Immortal was highly skilled in Concealing Skills, once they entered the Beast Taming Sect's market, it would still raise some suspicion among the Supreme Elders of the Beast Taming Sect, let alone considering the presence of powerful beings like Gui Ling Ancestor proficient in prediction.

Should any Demon Immortals dare to come, they would certainly be detected by Gui Ling Ancestor, and at that point, their escape would be impossible.

Therefore, most of the Demon Cultivators coming to the market to exchange various resources from the Red Flame Demon Realm were those existing within the Purple Mansion Dharma Image Primordial Spirit Realm.

Although the cultivators of this realm were already very formidable among ordinary Cultivators, when several Supreme Elders of the Beast Taming Sect also took part in the covert actions, these Demon Cultivators were destined to have little power to resist.

In midair, those panicked fleeing Demon Cultivators utilized various Demon Path Divine Powers, trying desperately to tear through the War Formation laid down by the thousands of disciples of the Beast Taming Sect to escape.

Unfortunately, this was the Beast Taming Sect's home ground. Not only was the power of the disciples' War Formation above terrifyingly potent, but rays of light also rose from within the market sealing off all sides, completely cutting off the possibility for those cultivators to return to the market and cause rampant destruction.

A Major Sect like this, dealing with these Demon Cultivators was naturally effortless; otherwise, they wouldn't qualify to round up the main bases of the Demon Sect.
