Chapter 1041: The Leader of the Ten Fiendish Gods
“What’s going on?!” Huang Yi exclaimed.
According to what Huang Long had told everyone along the way, Erxian Mountain was a place of beautiful scenery and abundant spiritual energy, a blessed land for immortals, a utopia with no monsters or beasts within hundreds of thousands of miles. But now, with such intense demonic energy, it was clearly a gathering place for demons!
Huang Long’s third eye opened, instantly taking in the situation of Erxian Mountain. A cold glint appeared in his eyes as he said in a low voice, “Let’s go!”
Susan and the members of the Huang family saw Huang Long’s expression and knew he was angry.
In the blink of an eye, Huang Long and the others arrived in front of Erxian Mountain.
“Stop! Who are you?” As Huang Long and his group approached, a group of small demons flew up from above Erxian Mountain. There were tiger demons, wolf demons, and lion demons—several hundred in total.
The leader of the group shouted at Huang Long and his companions, “Don’t you know this is the sacred training ground of our Great King Ji Meng? Those who trespass will be killed without mercy!”
“The sacred training ground of Great King Ji Meng?” Huang Long’s expression turned cold.
He knew Ji Meng—once the leader of the ten fiendish gods of the demon realm, and also one of Donghuang Taiyi’s subordinates. During the great war between the witches and demons, the world was shattered, and countless powerful beings from both sides perished. Yet some managed to escape and survive. Ji Meng was one of them.
“That’s right. Be sensible and scram away!” the leading demon ordered.
“Isn’t this the cave of Huang Long, one of the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan School, Erxian Mountain? Since when has it become Ji Meng’s sacred training ground?” Huang Long replied indifferently.
Now, he wasn’t in a hurry to act.
“Huang Long?” The leading demon laughed. “Do you mean Huang Chong? This used to be his Erxian Mountain, but our Great King Ji Meng has taken a liking to it. It belongs to him now!” With that, the leading demon sized up Huang Long. “Kid, aren’t you that Huang Chong?”
“Lion King, those girls behind this kid are really pretty. Let’s capture them and present them to Great King Ji Meng!”
“Good idea, Lion King. It’ll surely please Great King Ji Meng!”
At that moment, the other demons behind them started laughing.
Seeing these laughing demons, Huang Long’s voice turned grim. “Kill them all!”
“Yes, master!” Pili Dragon, Thunder Beast, Bog, Nat, and the others replied loudly, rushing to attack.
The demons were about to get angry when they were instantly wiped out by Pili Dragon and the others, disappearing without even a sound.
The demons patrolling in the distance, who had been watching the scene, were caught off guard by the sudden change.
When they came to their senses, they were all filled with terror and quickly crushed the demon talismans in their hands. Above, an explosion rang out. Soon after, dark clouds swirled deep within Erxian Mountain, gathering in waves. Groups of minor demons, elder demons, bear demons, and cat demons appeared—some wielding staffs, others carrying spears, some beating gongs, and some playing drums. There was chaos and loud shouting. “Who dares to invade my sacred demon mountain?” Then, from deep within Erxian Mountain, a terrifying demonic aura surged upward. With a roar as loud as thunder, the demons quickly stepped back and shouted, “Welcome, our king! May your reign last forever, and may your sacred body be invincible!” A middle-aged man with a dragon’s head appeared before them as the demons welcomed him. Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned before bursting into laughter, especially the women like Susan, Livia, and Vitia, who giggled incessantly. With such a display, the women thought these demons looked like a bunch of clowns posing. “I wondered who it was—turns out it’s you, Yellow Dragon!” The middle-aged man turned around, his face full of authority, and sneered, “You killed my subordinates for no reason today. Don’t think just because you’re a disciple of the Chan School that I won’t deal with you! Now, come and kneel and beg for mercy, and I might spare your life!” This middle-aged man was Ji Meng, the leader of the ten great demon gods under the Eastern Emperor. Those ten great demon gods of the ancient heavenly court were all extremely powerful, unsung heroes. Especially Ji Meng, whose strength was astonishing. By those standards, Yellow Dragon was no match for him. Moreover, since everyone had hidden their true strength, Ji Meng couldn’t gauge their actual power, which was why he was so arrogant. Of course, this was also because Yellow Dragon wasn’t favored by Yuan Shi in the Chan School and held a low status there. But given Yellow Dragon’s status as one of the Twelve Golden Immortals, how could Ji Meng dare to seize his Erxian Mountain? “Spare my life?” Yellow Dragon smiled indifferently. Pili Dragon, Oak, and the others laughed even more at this. Yellow Dragon clearly saw Ji Meng’s current strength—he was barely at the peak of Quasi-Saint status, not even reaching Half-Saint. Yet his subordinates dared to claim his body was invincible! Hearing the mocking laughter from Pili Dragon and the others, Ji Meng flew into a rage. “You’re seeking death!” he roared, then threw his fists at them. Where his fists passed, storms arose, the sky darkened with clouds, and the surrounding mountains seemed to shake. “Our king is invincible!” “Our king’s powers are unmatched!” Seeing Ji Meng’s might, the hundreds of thousands of demons began beating drums and gongs, shouting in praise. But just as they started shouting, Pili Dragon raised his hand and slapped Ji Meng away like swatting a fly.
Boom!
The mountain shook violently, and Ji Meng was flung onto a distant peak. That peak collapsed, leaving no sound—Ji Meng was already dead.
“Overestimating one’s own strength!” Pi Long clapped his hands and said.
The shouts of hundreds of thousands of little demons suddenly ceased, leaving complete silence. All the little demons stood there, staring at each other in shock.
Those beating drums and gongs stopped mid-motion.
“Our, our king… he was, he was flung away with just a slap?!”
“This… this can’t be true, right?”
One little demon muttered to himself, rubbing his single-pupiled eyes in disbelief.
“Damn, it seems it’s true!”
When most of the little demons accepted this fact and realized what had happened, they were filled with terror and fled in panic, even faster than they had come.
“Mom, why did I only have two legs?”
“Thankfully, I have four!”
As the demons fled, Pi Long and the others turned to Yellow Dragon. Yellow Dragon pondered for a moment and said, “Forget it, let them go!” These little demons were insignificant, and Yellow Dragon naturally didn’t bother with them. Even if Pi Long and the others attacked them, it would only reduce his own status.
Moreover, Yellow Dragon wanted these little demons to spread the word so that all the immortals in the Pangu era would know that he, Yellow Dragon, had returned!
Ji Meng, who had occupied his Two Immortals Mountain, would meet his end—death!
In an instant, hundreds of thousands of little demons vanished without a trace.
“Let’s go down,” said Yellow Dragon, leading everyone as they landed on the peak of the Two Immortals Mountain.
The mountain was still covered with demonic flags and skull banners. With the little demons gone and unable to take anything with them, the once sacred land of the immortals was now in complete chaos.
