Black Demon Realm.
Under the pitch-black night sky.
Secrets unknown to most lurked in the darkness.
Dozens of Evil-Eye Demons imbued with spiritual energy gathered furtively in a basent.
They were arranging an altar, with common Black Demon Realm sacrificial offerings prepared beneath it - demon crystals containing pure demonic energy, vials of refined demon blood rich in essence, condensed bone beads from Skeleton Demons, along with various demonic artifacts and treasures.
"Great Leader, can we truly succeed? Will we really receive blessings from the righteous gods?" asked one Evil-Eye Demon radiating spiritual energy hesitantly.
"Evil gods! We're praying to evil gods, not righteous ones! Are you trying to summon those disgusting Demon Enforcent Squads?!" roared another Evil-Eye Demon exuding righteousness. "We are demonic disciples bringing darkness to the Black Demon Realm! Only the Starry Sky Demon God can save our tainted bodies and purify our souls..."
He continued: "Even if... even if the Starry Sky Demon God is considered righteous, so what? As long as they grant us power, we can destroy this filthy world! Remake the universe! Hahaha!"
"The Great Leader is wise!"
Strangely, all the Evil-Eye Demons' eyes shone with clarity, completely at odds with the demonic nature pervasive in the Black Demon Realm.
Outside, a squad of Skeleton Demons quietly surrounded the building.
"Captain, according to reports, there's a group of righteous cultists conducting a divine ritual inside. Capturing them will earn us a huge amount of demonic rit!" transmitted one thoroughly demonic Skeleton Demon.
"Their leader might be that disgrace to Evil-Eye Demons - Xu Da, the remnant of the righteous path from the Starry Sky Cult. Pah! What a ridiculous na - these heretics always have such hard-to-pronounce nas!" another Skeleton Demon said excitedly.
"These righteous cultists are dangerous elents that must be eliminated to protect our demon town," the Skeleton Demon Captain said gravely. "They're insane - slaughtering demonic beings en masse, using terrifying arrays to refine demon flesh into spiritual essence crystals. That spiritual energy can harm us on contact, yet they use it for cultivation! Absolutely terrifying!"
After a mont's thought, he added: "Though we're fourth-tier demons facing mostly third-tier cultists, be extrely careful of spiritual energy contamination. Those essence crystals are highly corrosive and difficult to purge!"
"Understood!"
The Skeleton Demons' demonic auras surged, their eyes filled with pure demonic essence as proper demonic cultivators. Dealing with righteous cultists posed no real challenge - their only concern was preventing escape, not combat. These rat-like cultists only knew how to hide.
They slowly closed in, forming an airtight periter to ensure no cultist escaped.
In the basent, the Evil-Eye Demons continued preparations. Humanoid in shape but with a large sinister eye on their foreheads, their race could naturally perceive souls and detect hidden things.
Innately evil yet curious about all things, so Evil-Eye Demons beca fascinated with the legendary spiritual energy world, even researching how to refine spiritual energy from demonic energy. Such research was naturally unacceptable in the Black Demon Realm. Those who succeeded in developing thods to convert demonic energy or even refine demon flesh into spiritual energy beca outcasts, forced to operate in shadows.
Xu Da's spiritual energy was exceptionally pure. His evil eye seed to swirl with majestic righteousness, giving him an aura of nobility. As the cult leader, he had reached the fourth tier, far surpassing his followers.
"Prepare to begin the sacrifice to the Starry Sky Demon God!" Xu Da commanded.
"Yes!"
The cultists took positions around the array, solemnly channeling their spiritual power into the formation.
As the stellar array activated, Xu Da in the center gazed through the building at the starry sky above. He decided to try connecting with a different star this ti. After scanning with his evil eye, he randomly selected Tian Shu, the central star of the Big Dipper, for the sacrifice.
When the array fully activated, a pillar of spiritual light shot skyward, piercing through layers of demonic energy to connect with starlight from above.
"Oh true god who commands the stars!"
"Source of spiritual energy, master of all creation's end!"
"Your devout follower Xu Da offers the purest sacrifices, begging for your blessing to light our path forward!"
While performing stellar cultivation techniques to commune with the heavens and deduce secrets, Xu Da chanted words even he barely believed. His apparent worship was rely a pretense for stellar communication.
The Big Dipper glowed brightly as celestial inscriptions on Tian Shu star resonated across vast distances through the starlight. Instantly, Xu Da found nurous dao texts appearing in his mind - an incomplete legacy of the Seven Extres technique!
Eyes closed, he studied the contents and unconsciously recited: "The Seven Extres Dao Venerable transmits teachings across realms..."
At that mont, a strand of his thoughts ascended to the Big Dipper, crossing infinite worlds until sensed by soone on Green Vine Continent of Tianyuan Realm.
Imdiately, a consciousness traversed dinsions along this connection, manifesting above the altar.
Su Yuan had arrived!
Extending his perception, Su Yuan saw a group of strange creatures kneeling below. Puzzled, he shifted position and realized they weren't actually seeing him, but sothing above. Following their gaze, he saw Big Dipper starlight penetrating the building to illuminate the righteous-looking leader on the altar.
Channeling a wisp of starlight, Su Yuan deduced recent events. The starlight had recorded everything, making it easy to understand these creatures' actions.
They were actually worshipping a nonexistent Starry Sky Demon God!
Amused, Su Yuan's consciousness passed through the building into the open sky, where he beheld an alien demon town. The bizarre demonic denizens - Skeleton Demons, Lesser Demons, Greater Demons, Evil-Eye Demons, Rotten Corpse Crawlers, even high-tier Shadow Demons and Heavenly Demons - presented a fascinating sight.
But what truly astonished Su Yuan was the pervasive demonic energy - dark, evil, and fundantally opposed to spiritual energy. The spiritual energy on those cultists had seed impure and chaotic, hardly worth notice. Now realizing they'd cultivated it in this demonic environnt? Damn impressive! Managing any spiritual energy here was miraculous - achieving their level made them absolute demonic prodigies!
Returning to the basent, Su Yuan nodded approvingly at Xu Da's relatively pure spiritual energy.
Xu Da was ecstatically studying the newly acquired Seven Extres technique when suddenly...
The building above exploded into dust!
Only the basent's protective array saved the cultists from annihilation. Xu Da's face darkened as he saw the surrounding fourth-tier Skeleton Demons.
"Well well, if it isn't Starry Sky Cult Leader Xu Da!" laughed the Skeleton Demon Captain. "Nowhere to run now!"
"Damn it! How were we exposed?" Xu Da glanced suspiciously at his panicked followers, but knew this wasn't the ti for finding traitors. Seeking escape routes, he instead found powerful demonic arrays sealing them in completely.
"Why? Just after receiving this legacy, must I perish here?" Despair gave way to determination as Xu Da gazed at the Big Dipper. "My followers! The Seven Extres Dao Venerable has heard us! Pour all your power into the sacrificial array! The Dao Venerable will descend to save us!"
Knowing they were dood, the cultists desperately channeled their energy regardless of whether their leader was bluffing. Xu Da shouted: "Seven Extres Dao Venerable, ruler of starry rivers! Let starlight shine forever, delivering all beings! Big Dipper's myriad venerables, kingdom of stars!"
He spewed whatever grand phrases ca to mind, begging for divine intervention.
The Skeleton Demons sneered. "Enough with your nonsense, Xu Da! Your made-up Starry Sky Demon God and Seven Extres Dao Venerable might fool your stupid followers, but don't fool yourself!"
Waving his team forward, the captain ordered: "Make sure to record this. Now, wipe them out!"
Twelve fourth-tier Skeleton Demons unleashed murderous intent as watching demons cheered for the enforcent squad.
Twelve massive bone projectiles hurtled toward the altar, shattering the basent's protective array in an instant.
Just as Xu Da's face twisted in despair...
The Big Dipper suddenly erupted with dazzling starlight!
Countless beams descended, illuminating the entire demon town's sky...
