Jiang Wudi, the ancient ancestor of the Invincible Sect.
There are many rumors about her. So say she was the beloved of the Invincible Emperor, while others say she was his wife.
Accompanying the Invincible Emperor through a lifeti of battles, she chose to remain hidden in the Jiang Family after the Invincible Emperor ascended.
Her life was legendary. The very na Jiang Wudi, which ans ’Jiang the Invincible,’ proved her pride and self-confidence.
...
At this mont in Heaven Blue City, as many mighty beings capable of Stepping into Immortality descended, many residents seed to have even forgotten to run away.
"We are saved," soone shouted.
Whether it was Absolute Sword Elder, Sword Demon Dugu Wenchang, or the formidable Jiang Wudi.
They were all reclusive old ancestors whose re flick of a finger could cause tremors across the Tianluan Domain.
Now, even the disciples of the Lan Family did not understand why these figures from the Imperial Rule Immortal Sect would co to their aid.
They didn’t even know that their Lan Family was the Demon-Slaying Family.
"Brother Absolute Sword, long ti no see," Lan Jiulin exclaid with a big laugh.
His voice bood like thunder, echoing through the sky.
"Brother Wenchang, you have finally arrived."
"Great Ancestor Wudi, how have you been in recent years?"
The seven ancient ancestors of the Lan Family greeted each person respectively, seemingly very familiar.
After a round of jovial greetings, everyone turned their attention to Bai ng within the Formation.
Bai ng was surrounded by Demonic Qi soaring to the sky, as if the vast Demonic Qi wanted to engulf heaven and earth within it.
However, the eight pillars around him emitted a pure white light.
Each pillar was inlaid with shining Crystal Stones, like jewels capable of purifying the world, dazzling and pure.
"So this is the so-called ’Demon,’" Dugu Wenchang inquired.
"Yes, very strong, much stronger than any Demon our Lan Family has encountered before," Lan Jiulin explained gravely.
"Luckily, we kept a trick up our sleeve. We used the Light Origin Stone to arrange a Formation around the Chaos Stone.
The power of the Light Origin Stone greatly restrains his Demonic Qi. That’s how we managed to trap him. Otherwise, even with all of us gathered here today, we might not be a match for him."
The Light Origin Stone is one of the rarest Crystal Stones in this world, said to be transford from the waters of the Light Changhe.
Each piece is exceedingly rare and has a wide range of uses.
Especially in terms of restraining Demonic Qi, it almost has a completely suppressive attribute.
In fact, Bai ng’s power in this world was almost invincible.
If it were not for this mutually restraining power holding him back, none here would be his opponent.
With his current strength, he indeed could not break through the Formation quickly, unless he broke through the tenth Vein Gate.
But the rules of this world are such that if he tries to forcefully break them and breach the tenth Vein Gate, the Heavenly Dao would likely target him imdiately.
The outco would be self-defeating, which is his greatest conundrum at present.
...
"In the will left by your Lan Family’s ancient ancestors, there is this passage," Jiang Wudi said with interest.
"Since ancient tis, there has been a prophecy that one day the Demon will descend upon this world.
On the day of the Demon’s Advent, they will bring about the destruction of our world.
Thus, a great era of turmoil will arise, and your Lan Family will open the grand curtain of this era as the leaders."
Hearing Jiang Wudi’s words, Lan Jiulin shook his head slightly and said, "Great Ancestor Wudi has misunderstood.
Our Lan Family is only the guardian, sworn to protect the Chaos Stone from being taken away.
"To slay demons and cleave to the Way, we must protect the entire continent from being occupied by demonic forces."
"They all say the demons must die, but I haven’t seen them do anything," Jiang Wudi said.
"Their plot is to open the Ancient Demon Cave and welco the arrival of the Demon Race.
Before this, their strength was not enough to shake the continent, so naturally, they wouldn’t make a move," Lan Jiulin explained.
"Then let’s et these so-called demons," Brother Wenchang said with a light laugh.
Ten people tread through the air, surrounded by a vast aura of Immortal Qi.
They descended before the Formation, their eyes fixed on Bai ng as they sized him up.
"Heavenly Demon, may we have a word?" Lan Jingxiong called out loudly.
"I am Bai ng, the Demon of Despair, one of the Eighteen Demonic Generals under the Demon Lord," Bai ng halted his attack, replying in a cold voice from within the Formation.
"Demon of Despair, how about we make a deal?" Lan Jingxiong said, exchanging glances with the others.
"n of different principles do not work together. There’s nothing for us to talk about," Bai ng responded indifferently.
"We can agree to trap you without killing, and in return, you must tell us everything about the Demon Race, without omission," Lan Jingxiong said.
"You really think you can kill ," Bai ng said coldly.
If it really ca down to the final mont, it would be a case of perishing together.
He was prepared to face destruction by the Heavenly Dao as the price to open the tenth Vein Gate, and kill all these people.
"Since you are so obstinate, we will not be courteous any longer.
To slay monsters and eradicate demons is the family teaching of the Demon-Slaying Family. A demon like you that brings calamity to the people should have gone to Hell to repent long ago," Lan Jingxiong said with a feeling of discomfort.
"Prepare the Life and Death Demon Extinguishing Array," Lan Jiulin responded indifferently.
They originally wanted to extract more information from Bai ng, but it was pointless to keep him alive since he preferred death over cooperation.
"Gentlen, have you all mastered the Array Seals I taught you?" Lan Jiulin turned his head to look at the other elders from the Imperial Rule Immortal Sect and asked.
"They are a bit complicated, not quite proficient, but they will work when cast," Absolute Sword Elder replied.
"Then, let’s begin."
As Lan Jiulin’s voice fell, they saw ten people each taking their positions in the air around Bai ng.
They sat cross-legged, encircling him at the center.
A trendous amount of Immortal Qi emitted from their bodies as the ten people perford different gestures, their hands forming seals.
Their hand movents beca faster and faster, and the seals seed extrely complicated.
Pure white light stread from the seals, carrying an aura capable of destroying heaven and earth.
With a booming sound, as the seals gradually took shape, it seed as though even the Firmant could not withstand such power.
It began to fracture, and whirlwinds of Spiritual Energy surged across the sky.
The power of those ten seals almost enveloped the whole world, casting the sun and the moon above into pallor.
It was as if the sun itself hid behind the clouds; sand flew and rocks scurried, with lightning flashing and thunder roaring, as dark clouds densely gathered overhead.
Silver-white lightning, like long dragons, surged down, and ten rays of light soared into the sky, the seals spinning faster and faster.
The hand movents of the few people were so fast that not even afterimages could be seen.
"Sculpt," Lan Jiulin uttered softly.
A dazzling light shone from the seal in his hand, fully solidifying and shooting straight into the Firmant.
The seal transford into a vortex-shaped portal, reflected upon the sky above.
Then, a golden chain rattled as it flew out from within the portal.
It was unclear what material the golden chain was made of, but it went straight for Bai ng.
