Chapter 5052: Beneath the Illusory Realm

was the best outcome. This situation wasn't what he desired.>“As expected of Senior Brother Lü, Senior Brother Lü, it’s so good that you’re back! All the disciples of our Lingxiao Palace are proud of...(Two chapters together)

Poof! Before these demons could react, Lu Xia Tian's projection clone took the initiative. Two palm strikes directly hit the chests of two demons.

The two hulking demons had a hole blown straight through their chests. Before they could even recover, their life force was completely extinguished and they lay dead on the ground.

"Are you the immortal who guards the Duko Space Stone Pagoda We are here by the order of Emperor Hubatian. You, a mere lower realm immortal, dare to meddle in the affairs of Emperor Hubatian! Even a Great Luo Golden Immortal would show respect to our Emperor Hubatian!"

The Demon-King at the head, seeing Lu Xia Tian's projection avatar move with swift and ruthless killing moves, couldn't help but tremble in fear as he roared in anger.

This guy's move was so swift that they didn't even see him make a move before he quietly infiltrated their ranks. Their abilities were no match for this level of skill.

For now, our only hope is that the fearsome reputation of Emperor Tiangui will deter them.

“An Earth-Sky Phoenix Emperor, a Mahayana Golden Immortal level demon” Having already broken the enemy's combined forces, Lu Xia Tian’s projection avatar was not so worried anymore.

“Well, idle Golden Immortals are like chickens and dogs before our Emperor of the Putian Kingdom. Let alone you, a mere Lower Realm Immortal. It's wise to step aside now so we can pretend this never happened. Otherwise, once the Emperor of the Putian Kingdom finds out, not even you, nor any of these beings from these realms, will last more than a few breaths before turning into ashes.”

“If you truly had the capability, why would you only send a handful of demons to preside over affairs down here You lot are nothing but small fry. Don't even mention seeing the mighty Emperor Qutu Tian or even a celestial demon; even a Xuanxian-level demon is a rare sight for you.”

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

Lu Xia Tian's projected avatar smirked disdainfully. Perhaps these demons had some skill, but they were just low-level demons after all. If they truly had some background, they wouldn't be sent to do such a dangerous and arduous task.

"As expected of a cultivator from the lower realms, why would we stoop to squabble with these insignificant ants for your sake If you have any requests, just speak up. We'll do whatever is within our power." The leading demon switched tactics from intimidation to enticement upon realizing his threat was ineffective.

"How did you come from the Demon Realm" Lu XiaTian's projection avatar asked.

“It was naturally the elders of our clan who used divine powers to send us down to the mortal realm.” The leading demon let out a hearty laugh, his words hinting that powerful members of their clan could easily dispatch more demons, and even possibly come themselves.

“Dishonest, but based on your current understanding, you likely can’t know much more.” Lu Xia Tian’s projection avatar shook his head in disappointment. His form flickered, transforming into ten afterimages that simultaneously charged towards the remaining ten demons.

With a flourish... ten Demonic Cultivators were ready, each wielding their demonic blades to attack the shadow projections of the split avatar. The Guiding Star Formation, now out of control, was in utter chaos.

Screams rang out one after another. In a short moment, the remaining ten demon corpses fell to the ground. The projection avatar's figure became almost half translucent. Within the Duko Stone Pagoda, the totem power condensed by the Yestone tribe's faith could not be transmitted in at all. Fortunately, this completely solved the problem of these twelve demons.

The rest was simple enough. Lu Xia Tian's projected avatar personally controlled the Devil-Slaying Star Aperture Array, altering its direction to focus demonic energy toward the Hundred Spirit Realm. Instantly, the massive amount of demonic energy that had been surging into the Qian Yuan Realm was pulled into the Void Crossing Stone Tower as if by a powerful suction force.

The seniors have succeeded, quickly, the rest of you are responsible for clearing the demons in the Qian Yuan Realm. The Ye Shi tribe follows me into the Du Kong Stone Tower.

Seeing this, the three demon foxes Meiting was overjoyed and immediately greeted the fellow cultivators around her.

And the great cultivators of the Qianyuan Realm, along with those who had attained the Tribulation Transcendence stage, fought with these countless demonic creatures for tens of thousands of years. They never stopped thinking about expelling them.

Under the surging and turbulent demonic qi, it is beyond human power to stop it.

It was Lu Xia Tian's projection avatar personally taking charge, and also commanding a large number of cultivators from the Qianyuan Realm and Spirit Realm to set up various formations to fight against the demonic creatures. Only then did they manage to barely contain the spread of demonic energy within the Void Stone Tower.

This is the first time I've seen a reversal of fortune. Not only has the demonic energy been swept away by the Voidstone Tower, but the constant stream of monsters pouring out from within has also ceased. There were so many before it was truly disheartening.

The demons that poured into the Kyuan Realm were still extremely powerful, but as long as they lacked reinforcements, they became isolated forces. With the combined might of the cultivators from the Kyuan Realm and the Spirit Realm, eliminating them would be a piece of cake.

“Kill!” Another round of slaughter swept across the entire Qian Yuan Realm.

And as a large number of Yestone people continuously rushed to the Empty Stone Pagoda, Lu Xia Tian's projected avatar's ethereal form finally regained its fullness.

>

“Senior, we did it!” The three-tailed fox demon Mei Ting and Lu Xia Tian’s projections merged, their faces beaming with joy. Especially after seeing the twelve powerful demon bodies lying on the ground, Mei Ting was even more astonished by her projection clone.

"This is just the beginning. Whether we can escape this unscathed depends on luck." Lu Xiaotian's projection avatar sighed softly and transmitted his message to the powerful members of the Yèshí Clan, such as Wukong, Wuting, and Pingshan.

>

“Let all Yeestone people enter the Voidstone Pagoda. I need your concentrated totem power. If we can use this Voidstone Pagoda to transmit the totem power and allow me to sense it, perhaps the entire Yeestone clan, Spirit Realm, and even this Qianyuan Realm might truly be spared from disaster.”

"Yes, Holy One!" Ukong and Utong nodded several times, quickly leaving the tower to deliver the order.

Although Lu Xiaoteng's projection clone spoke ominously, for the Yèshí clan, as long as they could fight alongside a saint, they didn't care what enemies or hardships they faced. Even if the path ahead was a road to certain extinction, they had no fear.

“Master” the three-tailed fox demon Mei Ting couldn’t help but twitch her lips. Recalling the ethereal figure of the projected avatar just now, she roughly guessed what the other party meant.

The opponent had just killed twelve demons who had descended from the Demon Realm. According to his tone, he was only a mere avatar. It seemed like the main body was still in the Immortal Realm.

For a clone to arrive in the lower realms and still possess such power, what kind of realm is this

Santan's fox demon Mei Ting only felt dizzy for a moment, and from Lu Xiaoteng's projected avatar's tone, it seemed that there were also powerful figures from the Demon Realm on the side of the Hundred Ling Realm. It was truly a divine battle, with mortals suffering the consequences.

Two titans fought behind the scenes, even if they decided the victor and loser, it would only result in the extinction of billions upon billions of beings. As for the true combatants, perhaps they only lost a single avatar or suffered casualties among some insignificant pawns.

Mei Ting's heart felt a bit sour. After all this time, she had finally cultivated from an ordinary monster to her current state. She was considered quite powerful in the Bai Ling Realm. But in the eyes of true powerhouses, she was still as insignificant as an ant.

>

Lu Xiaoteng's projection avatar did not give further instructions, and Mei Ting remained inside the Duko Stone Tower, refusing to go anywhere.

No matter where one goes, there's a possibility of becoming cannon fodder. After witnessing the power of the Celestial Realm cultivators who could turn their hands into clouds and flip them to rain, deciding the lives and deaths of billions in the mortal realm with a single move, Mei Ting no longer accepts her current state and position.

As long as Lu Xia Tian didn't chase her away, Mei Ting planned to follow him. It would be even better if she could go to the fairy realm with him, a chance to finally break free from the limitations of this lower realm.

Mei Ting waited quietly, day after day practicing within the Duko Stone Pagoda. As for the increasing number of Yèshí Clan members gathering inside the Duko Stone Pagoda, they didn't have Mei Ting's complex thoughts. They entered the Duko Stone Pagoda without these gains and losses, without considerations of profit or loss.

It's simply because the saint's projection is here, requiring their faith to condense into totems. Here, they are closer to the saint. That's all.

"Scoundrel, where did you come from, little brat of the fairy world, daring to ruin this Emperor's good deeds!"

On a certain day, many cultivators of the Yèshí Clan within the Kūng Shí Tǎ (Empty Stone Pagoda) who had reached the Héshì realm and above suddenly stood up. However, under that terrifying and immense demonic might, they sank back down to sit, unable even to move, and some pressed themselves tightly against the ground in fear.

Many of the pagestoone tribe members desperately tried to get back on their feet, but their bones cracked and popped under the immense pressure.

The situation over there for the Three Young Demon Foxes wasn't much better either. They were being pressed down hard on the ground, unable to move an inch.

At this time, a large number of cultivators and demons in the乾元 Realm were trembling under this terrifying pressure.

The entire interface is permeated by an overwhelming demonic aura that is inescapable and leaves one powerless to resist, let alone raise any thoughts of defiance. The gulf between the two sides has become so vast that it's beyond description.

Those Mahayana cultivators who had reached the tribulation period were originally the pinnacle existences of the Qian Yuan Realm and the Spirit Realm. Under such pressure, they couldn't even stand up straight. It seemed as if a single thought from the other party could obliterate billions of living beings, or even an entire plane of existence.

In fact, the Pot Sky Queendom could directly erase the entire Qianyuan Realm without any hesitation. However, under the backlash of the interface power, it was not as easy as these cultivators imagined.

"Could it be that the Qianyuan Realm is truly finished like this" Hu Guiyuan looked at the now pitch-black sky and lamented in despair.

"It's over, the demon from the Demon Realm is unstoppable."

"Heaven has destroyed my Qianyuan Realm!"

“The spirit world is in peril, Amitabha Buddha.” The monk of the Tathagata Pearl Sect trembled with his hands clasped in prayer. After chanting a Buddha's name, he silently recited scriptures in his heart, trying to dispel the fear and unease within him.

At that moment, a massive palm shadow broke through countless swirling dark clouds, gently sweeping across the land like a warm spring breeze.

In an instant, it swept across the entire Qian Yuan Realm, driving away the terrifying and hopeless demonic energy.

That terrifying claw was directly erased by the giant palm shadow, vanishing without a trace, not even causing a ripple.

"Who dares!" A phantom of three-headed demonic ravens materialized in mid-air, glaring furiously at the massive palm print.

“Behold the Saint!” At this moment, all the Ye Shi within the Dùkōng Shí Tǎ felt that familiar presence, an aura of subservience that resonated from their very bones. Each one knelt down, bowing their heads in unison.

“This… This is the true Saint of the Yeestone Clan” The three-tailed demon fox, Mei Ting, froze for a moment before hastily kneeling on one knee, displaying a posture of submission. Her mind, however, buzzed with a strange feeling.

Such an ordinary tribe, even with some power in the lower realms, is insignificant compared to the entire Hundred Spirit Realm. What qualifications do they have to be protected by such a peerless powerhouse

"Lu, Lu Senior!" As a faint figure appeared in the void, the great cultivators and tribulation cultivators from the Spirit Realm couldn't help but gape. Lu Xiaotian hadn't been away from the Spirit Realm for too long, not short either. Especially with his avatar staying put in the Red Moon Desert.

For nearly ten thousand years, it has determined the life and death of the entire spiritual world and the Kyuan realm. These powerful beings from various races are naturally no strangers to Lu Xiaoteng.

"It's you, Dongfang Dansheng!" Huttian Jiuhou's expression changed drastically upon seeing Lu Xia tian's calm figure.

“Do you know me” Lu XiaTian’s figure and complexion were taken aback.

"The Eastern Divine Alchemist caused such a stir in the Immortal Realm, even I, residing far away in the Demon Realm, heard of it. How could I not have heard of the Eastern Divine Alchemist's name" Hu Tianjiaohuang sneered with a cold smile.

"The Eastern Saint of Dan now has become a target for extermination by the celestial courts of all directions. Now he dares to provoke me, truly a foe on all sides."

"Debt won't burden me, I want the empty stone pagoda. You may return on your own." Lu Xia Tian's illusory figure faintly spoke.

“Drive me away As far as I know, Dongfang Dansheng hasn't reached the level of a Great Luo Jinxian yet. Although he used some means to kill a Great Luo Jinxian from heaven in Haihun Palace, it was just a temporary victory.”

Hu Tianjiu’s heart was filled with anger. He realized that this Duko Stone Pagoda had been around for some time, and he had been plotting to obtain it for years. Now, Lu Xiaoteng had intervened and wanted to drive him away. How could there be such a good thing in the world

The Sky-Crossing Stone Tower is not easily taken. The Heavenly Crow Emperor has been planning for many years to invade the surrounding interfaces of the Kyuan Realm with demonic energy, continuously sending demons to the lower realms, setting up formations in nearby interfaces, and creating conditions for the Heavenly Crow Emperor to personally take the Sky-Crossing Stone Tower.

>

Otherwise, relying solely on these interfaces at this time, if the Heavenly Emperor personally took action, it would be extremely easy to cause partial collapse and turmoil of the interface. Under the turbulent space, the Void Stone Pagoda might leave its original position.

However, there's no need to worry about that for now. Originally, Xu Xu had been planning to take the Duko Stone Pagoda effortlessly, but with Lu Xia Tian's intervention, Hu Tian Jia Huang was determined to destroy everything rather than let Lu Xia Tian get his hands on it.

"Then give it a try." Lu Xia Tian's phantom figure smiled upon hearing this, and with a hand motion, he struck the empty air forward.

The sky-dwelling divine emperor Hu Tian also met the attack with a palm strike. Both sides drew only a portion of their power down to the mortal realm, and weapons couldn't be brought in. The true selves wouldn't readily descend and risk exposing themselves to various dangers. At this moment, the available options were relatively limited.

When it truly comes to a fight, the two sides are not necessarily comparing their true cultivation levels. Instead, they rely more on techniques and methods from the Lower Realm. In this regard, Lu Xia Tian is definitely no worse than Hu Tian Jiao Huang.

Both sides engaged in a fierce battle, and the high-ranking cultivators from the Kyuan Realm and Spirit Realm naturally couldn't see the specific process of the two phantoms fighting. They only saw that when the two sides separated, Hu Tianjiu Huang's phantom was already so faint that it was about to disappear completely.

“An excellent technique, Eastern Sage.” Huo Tianjiu’s virtual shadow was still seething with anger. After clashing with Lu Xiaoteng for a while, he wasn’t without the idea of stirring up the current situation.

Even if it caused the entire Qianyu Realm to collapse completely, he would not hesitate. The casualties of these billions of creatures in the lower realms were nothing to him.

>es were scattered everywhere, and low-level demon sheep, wild oxen, and other demon beasts grazed. At this time, a group of Qinglin beasts rushed over, and a grey sparrow flew up from the dense grass....
