Chapter 2242: The Wang Family United Defends Their Home! Demon Lord Defeated

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

It’s important to know that these two Half-Immortal Plants have been stuck at Peak Level Twelve for a very, very long time. Wu Dao joined the Immortal Palace perhaps only ten to twenty thousand years ago, and has been stuck at Peak Level Twelve, probably just for a few thousand years. But Emperor Xiu, he’s an ancient monster who has lived for countless tens of thousands of years, not even detailed in the records left by past Demon Lords in the Real Demon Palace. All that’s known is that when recorded, he was already a Peak Level Twelve Half-Immortal Plant.

For a Half-Immortal Plant like this, the chances of advancing are inherently low, unless there’s an extraordinary opportunity.

If one plant found an opportunity and happened to advance to Level Thirteen at this critical moment, it could still be said that he was extremely fortunate. But for two to advance to Level Thirteen simultaneously... Not only did it truly happen, just imagining it seems an unbelievable thing.

Suddenly.

The Demon Lord felt a bit disoriented in the wind, clearly the situation before him was far beyond his understanding and expectations.

"Demon Lord, for your own benefit, how many terrible deeds have you committed to harm the interests of the human race as a whole?" Wu Dao tea tree shouted angrily, "Now, you’ve further conspired secretly with factions, endangering the future hope of our human race. Shou Zhe is right, if such a disaster as you isn’t eliminated, it will indeed be a major calamity for humanity’s future."

"Wu Dao, no need to waste words with him," Emperor Xiu was obviously even more irritated with the Demon Lord, "Just take action."

Elder Tian Ji clearly thought so too.

The battle power of the three True Immortal Realm surrounded the Demon Lord, the aura of powerful individuals soaring into the sky.

In an instant, even someone as confident as the Demon Lord felt a bit uneasy.

Facing three on one, he didn’t have such ability.

At this moment, the Demon Lord had only one thought in his mind, and that was to run!

In a flash, he casually threw out a round orb as dark as ink. Once the bead appeared, a terrifyingly chilling aura spread across the sky, pressing so heavily it was difficult to breathe.

"Not good, it’s Netherworld Heavenly Thunder!" The knowledgeable Elder Tian Ji’s expression slightly changed as he was the first to act, "Can’t let it explode in the Wang family’s place; otherwise the consequences will be catastrophic."

This treasure is one of the Demon Lord’s secret weapons, requiring extensive gathering of Evil Qi from the very core of the Netherworld Lands and long-term sacrificial refining. It takes countless years just to refine one.

On the outer demonic world battlefield, he once used this Netherworld Heavenly Thunder to annihilate an elite unit of several thousand demonic clan members, with casualties almost complete below the Rank of Demonic General, and turned that area into Netherworld Purgatory, nothing grew for countless years.

If this Netherworld Heavenly Thunder were truly to explode within the Wang family’s main residence, fear not only the Wang family’s main residence, but such a large surrounding area would be completely polluted by Mingsha Qi, leaving endless troubles.

Moreover, of those present, anyone below the Purple Abode Realm probably wouldn’t survive.

Emperor Xiu and Wu Dao, of course, understood the serious consequences, and their expressions tightened as they hastily mobilized their vast Immortal Spirit Qi to control it.

"Boom!"

A muffled thunder erupted, a large amount of Netherworld Demon Qi spewed forth, but was forcibly suppressed by the combined might of three powerful forces, confined within a certain range, and continuously compressing backwards. It should soon be controlled.

But this was exactly the effect the Demon Lord desired.

With the interference of the three True Immortal battle powers eliminated, he immediately tore apart space preparing to flee.

But he never imagined, Shentu Jingming, who had been waiting for the opportune moment, struck appropriately, and brought out the family’s ultimate card [Red Lotus Karma Fire Picture].

This treasure is a one-time consumable, containing the law’s profound mystery of Red Lotus Karma Fire, a clumsy imitation of the legendary Sacred Image. It’s said this artifact was refined in the prime of his later years by a powerful Demon Emperor whose strength had reached mid-stage True Devil Realm. It embodies his complete understanding of Red Lotus Karma Fire, costing him countless efforts, its power far surpassing that of a True Immortal’s strike by many, many degrees.

As Shentu Jingming’s Mysterious Energy poured in, the Red Lotus Karma Fire Picture combusted into ashes in mid-air, transforming into a sky full of karma fires that enveloped the Demon Lord.

The bright red flames were enchanting and captivating, yet carried a terrifying power seemingly capable of burning everything.

"Damned!"

The Demon Lord’s face changed, hurriedly canceling the space tear, gushing forth his thick and vast Netherworld True Demon Qi, using the Netherworld True Demon Banner to desperately resist the invasion of the Red Lotus Karma Fire.

But even so, his black robe was scorched with holes, his beard and hair burned into a sorry state.

"Shentu Jingming, how dare you make a move against me!" The Demon Lord glared angrily at Shentu Jingming, endless rage filling his chest.

If it were someone else injuring him, he wouldn’t be this furious, but it was Shentu Jingming, a junior he had never considered important.

"Demon Lord, you act against the natural order, cruel and ruthless, harming compatriots. Your crime is unforgivable." Crown Prince Jingming reprimanded sternly, "As Crown Prince, I now represent the Red Moon Demon Dynasty, condemning you to death."

"Such audacity! What qualification do you, a mere junior, have to judge me?!" The Demon Lord was extremely furious, instantly commanding the Netherworld Shura Banner to suppress the Red Lotus Karma Fire, and pointed distantly.

"Whiz!"

A dark and terrifying energy condensed into a beam, heading towards Shentu Jingming.

[Netherworld Slaughter Spirit Finger]!

It is one of the Demon Lord’s signature moves, sinister and formidable, more powerful when used in anger.

Crown Prince Jingming naturally would have a hard time resisting, but Zhou Elder, who had been paying attention all along, swiftly blocked Shentu Jingming, exerting all his might to fend off this finger.

"Pfft!"

Elder Zhou instantly flew backward, his chest directly pierced by the Netherworld Slaughter Spirit Finger, his whole body enveloped in the dense aura of Mingsha Qi, even his complexion faintly blackened.
