Chapter 1381: Holy Court Strikes, Heaven-Covering Great Array

Whether it was the Heaven Burning Demon King or Old Mo, their expressions changed drastically.

They watched Xu Zimei walking in mid-air.

Each tried desperately to retreat, wanting to escape.

Unfortunately, Bai Meng and the others had already blocked their way out.

Only the Nether King and the Pill Saint were indifferent.

As if their souls had departed, they sat there in a daze.

The Golden Crow Great Saint was dead.

With all flames united, they were now like mere shells.

Moreover, the entire Heavenly Fire family was utterly destroyed.

The Lotus Pond Secluded Path was also gone.

This colossal entity, standing for millions of years, vanished overnight.

Someone looked up to the firmament.

At the rising light of dawn, they murmured.

“The sky has changed.”

The Heavenly Fire family was finished, and the entire Catastrophe Demon Domain would likely descend into chaos.

Because the Demon Realm was finished too.

Therefore, the competition for power, land, and resources would become more rampant.

At this moment, Bai Meng and the others encircled Old Mo and the Heaven Burning Demon King.

“What do you want to do?” Old Mo asked with an unpleasant expression.

“What do you think?” Xu Zimei smiled.

“I’m curious, at such a critical moment, why hasn’t your Holy Court taken action yet.”

“If you let me go now, you might still have a way out.

Otherwise, you’ll surely die,” Old Mo said firmly.

“You want me to let you go? Sure,” Xu Zimei smiled.

“Kneel now, admit your mistakes, and I’ll consider it.”

“You must be dreaming,” Old Mo said coldly with an unpleasant expression.

Surprisingly, upon hearing Xu Zimei’s words, the Heaven Burning Demon King knelt down.

“Demon Lord, it’s all my fault.

I was blinded by stupidity, believing these petty people’s words.

Spare me, and I’ll do anything.”

At this moment, the Heaven Burning Demon King didn’t care about pride anymore.

For someone like him, the only fear was death.

He could lose everything, dignity, pride, but never his life.

Because he was a Great Saint.

I spent my entire life striving to become a Great Saint, unwilling to die like this.

“I told him to kneel and admit his wrongs, who do you think you are?” Xu Zimei glanced at the Heaven Burning Demon King and said indifferently.

“With someone like you, do you deserve to call yourself a Demon King?”

The reason he wanted Old Mo to kneel was because Old Mo was a member of the Holy Court.

He represented a part of the Holy Court.

And the Heaven Burning Demon King? Just an ancestor who founded his own sect.

Moreover, he was once driven away like a stray dog by the Sun Palace.

“I’m not fit to be a Demon King, I’ll change my name immediately.

Whatever you want me to change to, I will,” the Heaven Burning Demon King continued to plead.

Xu Zimei didn’t reply.

This Old Mo was a tough nut, even in death, he wouldn’t kneel and admit his wrongs.

He looked up to the firmament.

Murmured, “Truly can hold their composure.”

Thinking of this, Xu Zimei’s gaze sharpened.

Coldly said, “At noon today, execute them both within this Lotus Pond Secluded Path.”

“Yes,” Bai Meng and the others responded.

Not giving Old Mo and the Heaven Burning Demon King any chance to resist, they sealed their Vein Gates.

Tied them up and escorted them to the center square of the Lotus Pond Secluded Path.

The former residents of the Lotus Pond Secluded Path, knowing they were safe after the death of the Five Elements Lotus, didn’t flee.

Having heard that four Great Saints would be executed, they gathered around.

“Let’s see how long you can endure,” Xu Zimei looked up at the firmament with a cold snort.

………

The scorching sunlight poured over the ruins of the Lotus Pond Secluded Path.

The surrounding residents murmured among themselves.

Because Old Mo, the Heaven Burning Demon King, the Nether King, and the Pill Saint were all tied up there.

Four Demon Generals wielded long blades with demonic qi swirling around them.

Xu Zimei stood at the forefront.

Great Saint Zixia and the Bright Moon Fairy had also returned.

They had slain the Vermilion Bird Great Saint and the Heavenly Fire Two Elders.

It was originally an evenly matched situation.

Unfortunately, with the Heavenly Fire family emerging, those few lost their will to fight.

In a battle of experts, every move and stance was crucial.

Once the mind was in turmoil, defeat was inevitable.

Xu Zimei glanced at the blazing sun and shouted, “Execute!”

Among the four, except for the Heaven Burning Demon King who kept pleading, the other three remained silent.

Bai Meng and the others followed the order, their long blades suffused with demonic qi, slashing down fiercely.

Even if their heads were severed.

With Old Mo’s strength, he wouldn’t die.

Unless the True Fate was shattered, a Great Saint wouldn’t be killed.

Even if the True Fate was shattered, a Great Saint could resurrect with the Life and Death Soul.

Thus, Xu Zimei’s decapitation of Old Mo was a way to slap the Holy Court’s face and draw them out.

As for the True Fate, he certainly wouldn’t shatter it.

Killing a Great Saint was far less convenient than imprisoning them.

……

When the four demonic blades descended simultaneously.

The previously calm void finally changed.

“Spare them from the blade,”

A grand and magnificent voice resonated from all directions.

This voice was like the majesty of the heavens.

Instantly evoking a feeling of submission.

Many residents of the Lotus Pond Secluded Path felt their scalps tingling, involuntarily kneeling down.

Xu Zimei looked up.

Only to see, in the previously calm sky, a vision of the Holy Temple appeared.

This Holy Temple was filled with rarefied immortal qi, ancient yet luxurious, resplendent beyond compare.

Around the Holy Temple, ancient trees rose to the firmament.

Countless rays of brilliance shot into the skies.

Like a galaxy, stretching back from the horizon.

With countless Divine Beasts within.

A real Phoenix traversed the void.

A seven-colored mountain and river bird seemed to reflect half of the mountains and rivers, forming a world of sun and moon reincarnation, eternal stars.

“What is this place? So beautiful.”

“Could this be the Holy Court, the place where Immortals reside?”

Those kneeling residents gazed longingly.

As if lost within this Holy Temple.

And the previous voice belonged to an old man standing in front of the Holy Temple.

He had an extraordinary temperament.

Dressed in a white robe, his white hair fluttered in the wind.

His voice was also full of vigor, awe-inspiring.

He held a golden edict in his hand.

“The Immortal Lord’s decree, release our Holy Court’s people from the remains of the Demon Race.

Surrender immediately and admit your wrongs, considering the heavens’ virtue, you might be spared lightly.

If stubbornly resisting, heaven will forsake and destroy you.”

The old man’s words were forceful.

At this moment, the Holy Court appeared to dominate everything supremely.

His gaze was indifferent, devoid of any emotion.

“Do you think your Holy Court’s words have any effect on me?” Xu Zimei smiled.

“Demon Lord, do you think our Holy Court’s delay was without purpose?” The old man waved his hand.

Instantly, an ancient formation from eternity was activated above the void.

The entire world seemed suppressed by this formation.

“Heaven-covering Great Array,” the old man said indifferently.

“Demon Lord, under this formation, you can never escape.”

The level of this formation was unknown.

Unless a Dao Fruit Powerhouse intervened, there was likely no hope of breaking it.
