Chapter 114: Slay the Venerable, Annihilate the Clan!
Lu Qingyang was thrown into the Demon Race's Heavenly Prison.
All his abilities were useless here.
This was the lair of the Myriad Fox Demon Race. Void Return great demons were everywhere outside.
There were quite a few Tribulation Crossing Stage great demons as well. Even Demon Venerables who had just entered Great Vehicle numbered two.
No matter how great his abilities, he could not stir up any waves.
He could only cultivate in peace.
However, his Demon Venerable Mother did not treat him poorly either, supplying him with all kinds of heavenly treasures and earthly materials every day.
Seeing this, Lu Qingyang saw through her intentions at a glance.
No doubt about it. She’s preparing to ripen me.
Sigh… I wonder what kind of upheaval will let me live to eight hundred years old.
Forget it, forget it. Since she’s giving them to me, I’ll take them. Who cares? Eat and drink first, think later.
Thinking this, Lu Qingyang stopped letting his thoughts run wild.
He welcomed his rare leisure time.
And in the blink of an eye, several hundred years passed.
During these several hundred years, Lu Qingyang was idle, but the Human Race tribes of the outside world were not.
With Lu Qingyang’s teachings, the Human Race tribes throughout the entire Demon Realm rose at rocket speed.
In just a hundred years, their population not only broke through the hundred million mark.
Artifact Refining, Pill Refining, and Puppet Crafting also developed in a blowout fashion.
The Human Race’s puppets in particular were practically heaven-defying.
It was said that a Human Race expert named A Sheng had gathered the strength of tens of thousands of tribes and, through sheer force, refined a Great Vehicle puppet!
Of course, such rapid development was not only because Lu Qingyang had sown the seeds of hope.
It was also because the Human Race of this realm had been enslaved and hunted for tens of millions of years.
Under such oppression, every human held in a breath, desperately unleashing their full potential!
Amid death and slavery, they threw caution to the wind, advancing wave after wave, displaying the brilliance and wisdom of being “human”!
And the Demon Race forces that had originally been the overlords of this realm were steadily retreating under this transformation.
Because of this, Lu Qingyang, who should have been released after a hundred years of secluded cultivation, was imprisoned again and again.
Until no one paid him any attention.
There was no other reason. His mother, the Demon Venerable, was busy suppressing rebellions everywhere, and had no time to spare for him.
Until the day of Lu Qingyang’s five hundredth birthday.
On this day, the aura around Lu Qingyang surged, and faint thunder rumbled through the heavens.
Outside the Demon Race's Heavenly Prison, layers of thunderclouds gathered across the sky.
“BOOM!!!”
The巨响 was deafening.
Thunder and lightning intertwined above the heavens, terrifying pressure spreading in all directions.
What’s going on?
Someone is undergoing Tribulation Crossing?
This is the sign of advancing to Tribulation Crossing!
Sensing that vast pressure, the demons of the Demon City all raised their heads.
They saw thunderclouds blanketing the sky, lightning flashing and thunder roaring, terrifying to the extreme.
“Hisss!”
“Whose junior has entered Tribulation Crossing!”
“These thunderclouds are actually so fierce!”
The demons discussed among themselves, utterly shocked.
And at this moment, deep within the Heavenly Prison, all was silent.
Lu Qingyang, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them.
Five hundred years old and entering the Tribulation Crossing Stage — that’s so much faster than the Simulation progress!
Lu Qingyang’s eyes were full of sharp light.
In the Simulation, he had only stepped into Dao Integration at eight hundred.
Now, because the Demon Race had frantically fed him heavenly treasures and earthly materials, he had stepped into Tribulation Crossing after only five hundred years of cultivation!
Truly terrifying.
Seeing that his breakthrough was imminent, Lu Qingyang no longer let his attention wander, immersing himself body and soul in the breakthrough!
The layers of thunderclouds in the sky finished condensing at this moment.
But they could not find the person undergoing Tribulation Crossing. For a time, they seemed to fly into a rage, striking wildly in all directions!
“BOOM!”
“Crack!”
“Boom!”
“Bang!”
Thunder exploded, frenzied and violent!
The entire Demon City was shrouded in a sea of lightning, as if the apocalypse had descended.
Any demon touched by it trembled and knelt on the ground.
Not just from fear, but from submission.
After all, thunder was the most yang and most rigid of things, and the Demon Race was innately afraid of thunder punishment.
Let alone this Tribulation Crossing thunder.
“Damn it! Who exactly is undergoing Tribulation Crossing! Why won’t they come out and face the tribulation!”
Within the Demon City, a Great Vehicle demon raged, roaring again and again.
Even it, a Great Vehicle demon, had to avoid the sharp edge of such a thunder tribulation, or it would surely suffer severe injuries.
Let alone those demons with lower cultivation than it.
By now, quite a few demons had already fallen under the raging thunder tribulation.
And as the direction of the thunder tribulation grew clearer and clearer.
The demons finally noticed something.
“Wait, the direction of the Heavenly Prison — could it be…”
“Someone! Open the Heavenly Prison at once!”
That demon roared, immediately summoning the experts under its command to open the Heavenly Prison.
“Clang, clang, clang…”
Soon, the heavy diamond spirit ore iron gates were slowly pushed open.
“Whoosh!”
“Swoosh!”
As the iron gates opened, a figure instantly shot out, turning into a streak of light that flew into the sky.
“Boom!”
At the same time, the thunder tribulation instantly locked onto that figure and struck down viciously.
Seeing this, Lu Qingyang did not dodge at all, meeting it head-on.
The Heavenly Prison had not been open earlier, so he could not undergo Tribulation Crossing and had been stuck at the bottleneck.
Now that he had finally gotten out, he naturally had to strive for the breakthrough.
And as the heavenly tribulation passed second by second, a figure with a withered aura suddenly fell from the distance, crashing to the ground.
“Boom!”
Dust flew, smoke billowed.
When the dust dispersed, a bedraggled figure appeared in place.
That person was none other than Lu Qingyang’s Great Vehicle mother, the Myriad Fox Demon Venerable!
However, bedraggled as she was, her face carried a smile.
“Hahahaha! He actually already underwent Tribulation Crossing!”
“Hahahaha!”
“Heaven is truly helping me!”
“If he’s at the Tribulation Crossing Stage, he can probably not only send me into the late stage of Great Vehicle, but maybe… even my ascension will be within reach!”
The Myriad Fox Demon Venerable was overjoyed, unable to resist howling toward the sky.
And on the other side, as the tribulation clouds slowly dispersed, Lu Qingyang’s figure gradually revealed itself.
“Not bad, not bad!”
“Good son, come here quickly!”
The Myriad Fox Demon Venerable called out somewhat madly.
Seeing the Myriad Fox Demon Venerable’s extremely excited appearance, Lu Qingyang narrowed his eyes.
When did she come back? And judging by the looks of it, she seems to have suffered very heavy injuries?
Lu Qingyang’s brow furrowed tightly.
At this moment, the Myriad Fox Demon Venerable looked rather miserable — blood at the corners of her mouth, clothes tattered, her whole body scorched black.
And she seemed heavily injured, the spiritual power within her body seemingly all but exhausted.
Wait…
Lu Qingyang seemed to think of something, and it was as if a bolt of lightning flashed through his mind.
In an instant, countless thoughts raced through his head.
Finally, they settled on one matter from the Simulation.
“At five hundred years old, a heavily injured Demon Venerable returns to her clan, and her clan has countless resources… I led my tribe and ultimately destroyed the Venerable’s clan!”
Could it be… the Demon Venerable I killed was this woman?!
Lu Qingyang’s expression shifted slightly.
But there was still a point of doubt.
That’s not right. Even if she’s heavily injured, how could I possibly kill her among ten thousand demons as I am now!
And also… what tribe do I even have right now?
Lu Qingyang’s thoughts churned in confusion, seeking a way to break the situation.
But just then, when the Myriad Fox Demon Venerable could no longer resist making a move to capture Lu Qingyang by force.
In the distance, at the outer edge of the Myriad Fox Demon City, beneath the heavens.
A white-robed figure slowly emerged, walking forward step by step, like an exiled immortal.
Behind him, hundreds of thousands of humans, accompanied by countless puppets, followed closely.
A vast torrent, surging toward the Myriad Fox Demon City…
