The Ancestor of All Demons

The "Blood Demon Scripture" and the demons within it are naturally the main focus of the Heavenly Tribulation, especially the hundreds of thousands of soul bodies inside, each triggering a Heavenly Thunder, leading to millions striking simultaneously.

If Shi Feiyang did nothing, this Demon Scripture would be instantly pulverized, and the soul bodies within would vanish without a trace, except for Xin Ru Nun, though she wouldn't last long either.

Shi Feiyang formed the Five Elements Array with five Lotus Platforms, placing the Scripture within it, and instructed Red Flower Princess, E Shengfan, among others, to prepare to cross the tribulation.

Red Flower Princess and E Shengfan have many Heavenly Demons under their command, all brought by Shi Feiyang from the Heaven of Self-Transformation. The Heavenly Demons despise the Nine Heavens Pure Spirit Qi and cannot endure the Heavenly Thunder, yet they are much stronger than Earth Demons, Human Demons, Divine Demons, and others.

There are also those who have been cultivating on Earth, arriving through a contract established by Shi Feiyang years ago, including many young students, who, upon witnessing the arrival of Heavenly Thunder, were not afraid but rather excited: "It's time to cross the tribulation! Let's charge up and break apart the thunderclouds!"

Luckily, they can't get out, or they would have surely been shattered by the Heavenly Thunder!

A large amount of Heavenly Thunder struck the Demon Scripture, and the Heavenly Demon World where Red Flower Princess resided intercepted a third, with the remainder hitting the Great Ru World below.

Xin Ru was preaching, expounding on the splendor of her Great Ru Pure Land, which lacks the Ghost Path, Beast Path, and Hell Path. People here, after death, will not turn into ghosts or beasts but can reincarnate directly into humans, directly granted the Golden Body, achieving Arhat Fruit.

She further proclaimed: "Dafang Guang Buddha's Pure Land has no Heavenly Tribulation, no Human Tribulation, no Earth Tribulation, no Three Calamities and Eight Disasters, no Five Obstructions and Three Deficiencies..."

As she was speaking, the Heavenly Thunder arrived, falling like a torrential downpour, in an instant piercing and shattering the Bright Cloud above Xin Ru.

Sensing this, Xin Ru let out an angry howl, "What dares to disrupt on top of this Buddha's head!"

She was truly furious, having been publicly humiliated before millions of believers!

During this time, she also sensed another world above the Great Ru Pure Land, inhabited by many Heavenly Demons!

She attempted three times to attack into the "Immortal Realm" to transform the Heavenly Demons into her followers, but the Heavenly Demons were formidable, especially the most powerful Red Flower Heavenly Demon with great mana and vast divine skills...

Yet, if compared in real strength, neither Red Flower Princess nor E Shengfan, along with all the Heavenly Demons combined, were her match.

This is because the Great Ru Pure Land is created from her Illusion Realm, fortified with secret techniques by Shi Feiyang to manifest into reality. Thus it became her world, but also her cage, preventing her escape, allowing merely occasional extension of hands or casting of spells across space to duel with Red Flower Princess and other Heavenly Demons.

Red Flower Princess, also the Sovereign Demon God of the whole Demon Scripture, had the upper hand here, which is why she suppressed Xin Ru steadily.

Xin Ru resisted the Tribulation Lightning, thinking it was the Heavenly Demons above causing trouble. Previously, when Shi Feiyang destroyed her physical body, the explosion also harmed her Primordial Spirit, causing her to forget many things. The larger her delusions, the less clear her mind became, forgetting who Red Flower Princess and E Shengfan were, thus she roared angrily at the Immortal Realm, determined to slaughter all Heavenly Demons into submission!

Under her command, Zhu Youmu, Xie Shan, Ye Bin, and others also took action, collectively resisting the Tribulation Lightning, attacking fiercely towards the Upper Realm!

The Thunder Tribulation lasted for some time, soon followed by the Fire Tribulation.

This fire was the Nine Heavens Divine Flames birthed from the Heavenly Mansion. Although its quality wasn't as high as Purple and Blue Duoluo Fire, the Douluo Fire had only three flame buds, whereas this was boundless like the ocean, surging from all directions.

The fire poured abundantly from the skies above the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain, first filling the Chaos Heaven completely.

Shi Feiyang was still the first to face the brunt. He forcibly absorbed a third of the flames, continuously expelling True Qi. The five Lotus Platforms bloomed in the fire, growing larger and larger, as before, the branches and leaves were constantly burnt to ash by the flames but would promptly regrow from the Lotus Platform, dying and reborn, incessantly, endlessly.

The remaining flames fell downward, Jin Xunu continued rotating the Star Plate to control the amount falling below.

At this time, the Thunder Tribulation hadn't stopped, and the Fire Tribulation arrived again, making the entire Outer Heaven Divine Mountain look from afar like a boundless fire burning a gigantic lightning sphere.

Before the Fire Tribulation ceased, the Wind Tribulation arose...

This time, the Heavenly Tribulation was a thousand times stronger than the great tribulation three years ago, but it was all of the Purest Yang, aiming to destroy anything that shouldn't exist in the heavens!

Numerous Flying Swords, Magical Treasures, grasses, woods, and rocks turned into flying ash, but fortunately, many beings had been gathered in advance by Shi Feiyang, assembling into groups, watching over each other, united in effort, besides a few who didn't listen or had extremely poor foundations, the rest, though enduring hardship, could all manage to persevere through it.

After all, with the falling sky, there are tall figures supporting, Shi Feiyang stood at the forefront, having already cultivated to the level of Golden Immortal, lacking only the nurture of the Heavenly Mansion for perfect fire control.

This time, within such fierce Heavenly Tribulation, repeatedly tempered, though suffering was difficult to bear, his spirit grew stronger with every trial, step by step advancing towards that legendary realm of Immortal!

As the immense amounts of things on the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain are destroyed, and those not destroyed are purified, dull energy and yin energy greatly decrease, and pure qi and yang qi become increasingly intense, causing the drawn tribulation lightning and tribulation fire to begin to diminish.

Shi Feiyang uses the cosmic void as his tripod furnace, employing the naturally occurring tribulation lightning and tribulation fire to temper the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain into a "Golden Core," achieving the initial objective where all beings and the mountain itself undergo refining and baptism.

The Stone God Palace Master ascends along with the Stone God Palace, using a method of refining the palace as part of his own body, with even the Eight Great Hells inside becoming part of his Dharma Body.

Inside the hells are malevolent spirits and vengeful ghosts he has imprisoned for centuries, most of which he releases, while those with significant karmic ties to him are refined into "parasites" on his body.

This time, Shi Feiyang refines the entire Outer Heaven Divine Mountain into a golden core, which belongs to him personally. However, this core remains external rather than internal, akin to an outer core, yet it is connected to his life force, with the beings on it remaining independent entities, effectively being smuggled along.

The Stone God Palace Master's ascension is to the Heaven of Self-Transformation, a place where Heavenly Demons gather.

Shi Feiyang's ascension to the Spiritual Space Immortal Realm is a place feared by Heavenly Demons, a land unreachable by any yin or evil, making it a thousand times more difficult than the Stone God Palace Master's journey, causing even him to believe she will surely fail.

Alchemy requires the control of civil and martial fire, with martial fire preceding and civil fire following, turning the strong fire weak and simmering down.

Yet, his grand spectacle had already alarmed many immortals in the heavens, who cast spells to observe from a distance.

The patrolling Heavenly Patrol General immediately rushed over, astonished to see such a bold person.

In the past, individuals would attempt to storm the heavens directly, but none had ever tried to bring a large piece of land, along with countless beings, to the heavens!

That day, patrolling in the south was Marshal Xin of the Thunder Department, who rushed over with his subordinates.

At first, he watched from afar, believing that such powerful Heavenly Thunder and Heavenly Fire would be too much for the intruder, expecting them to be bombarded to ashes soon.

After all, forcibly taking such a massive entity like the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain along with its billions of creatures into Heaven incurs an extremely terrifying heavenly tribulation, too unbearable even for him as a Heavenly Palace Thunder General granted a Golden Talisman by the Heavenly Sovereign.

Upon seeing the thunder and fire weakening, he was shocked and flew over with his subordinates, surrounding the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain from above and exclaiming, "How dare you, vile being of the Lower Realm, barge into the Immortal Realm in such great numbers!"

There have been those not yet Heavenly Immortals who squeezed up from below, but mostly they did it sneakily or alone, and even if they brought their families, they never came with so many people and beasts. This wasn't moving a home here, nor was it relocating a whole clan; this was directly bringing a small world along, utterly astonishing!

When Marshal Xin spoke, his voice transformed into thunder traveling a thousand miles, causing the firmament to shake and space to warp, exploding with crackles.

Shi Feiyang stood atop the Lotus Platform, first stating his own name, then asking for the other's name.

"Elevating a mountain" and ascending was no small matter, so Shi Feiyang prepared thoroughly beforehand.

He used the Heavenly Heart Ring to contact Shi Sheng, and through Master Chi Zhang, he gathered as much information as possible about the Upper Realm, knowing that this Marshal Xin was a Divine General of the Thunder Department, quite formidable and not to be underestimated. He began speaking from Pangu opening up the world:

"Pure qi ascends as heaven, dull energy descends as earth. The rise of the pure and the fall of the dull follows the natural order. Normally, humans, gods, demons, and ghosts first purge themselves of dullness, embrace clarity, retreat from yin, and advance to yang, cultivating to the realm of purest yang before ascending to the Immortal Realm.

We, however, ascended first, then rely on the natural power of heaven and earth to cleanse us of yin and dullness, transforming to clarity and converting to yang. This is a brand new method of Immortal Cultivation, different from what Marshal Xin knows, yet our endurance of the Heavenly Thunder and Heavenly Fire,

proves the feasibility of this method. As the saying goes, 'The Dao follows nature.' Since we comply with the ultimate truth of the universe and the grand Dao to reach this, even heaven does not blame us. Therefore, Marshal Xin has no reason to obstruct us..."

"Pure nonsense!" Marshal Xin was dumbfounded. He had considered what excuses the intruder might use, but did not expect such a justification, "Utterly irrational! The Spiritual Space Immortal Realm has its own grand ruler. How can it allow such reckless actions like yours!"

Shi Feiyang said, "Before coming, we have already burned a petition, reporting to the Heavenly Sovereign, and the Sovereign did not object..."

Marshal Xin found him audacious: "Do you expect the Heavenly Sovereign to respond to every petition you burn down in the Lower Realm? I see that your mana and divine skills are impressive, and having endured this tribulation, you are now the son of a Golden Immortal. Why not ascend through the Righteous Path via the Immortal Ascension Platform, instead of acting against the natural order in this way?"

Shi Feiyang said, "How am I acting against the natural order? I've said it clearly, pure rises and dull falls, I am simply following the order of heaven!"

"The Immortal Realm has its celestial laws and doctrines!"

"Is there a law forbidding this kind of ascension?"
