Starlight Carousel! The Demon Emperor's Deluxe Children's Amusement Park!
The moment the Demon Emperor issued his decree, the atmosphere in the entire Heavenly Court changed instantly.
The tense atmosphere of preparing for a decisive battle with the Witch Clan had completely vanished.
Instead, there was a fervor comparable to that of preparing for the opening ceremony of a top-tier Olympic Games.
365 Demon Gods simultaneously received the highest order from the Demon Emperor's Palace.
When they saw the instructions, each of them deeply doubted whether they were dreaming or still asleep.
"What the heck?"
"A guard of honor? A parade?"
A Tiger-headed Demon God scratched his forehead, looking completely bewildered.
"I have to dress up as a rare and exotic beast? But I am a rare and exotic beast myself! I can't exactly wear a wolf skin, can I?"
"The most glamorous? The most spectacular? Is His Majesty trying to emulate Nuwa and hold a beauty pageant?"
After a brief period of confusion, a lengthy official document, tens of thousands of words long and personally signed by Strategist Bai Ze, was swiftly issued.
<Guidelines on how to successfully organize a starlight parade to please the Great Dao Incarnate>.
This document, which can be described as an "Action Program," combines the advanced experience of the Three Pure Ones of Kunlun Mountain in "involution" and has undergone profound modifications to suit the characteristics of the demon race, instantly igniting the CPU of all the demon gods.
It turns out this wasn't a beauty pageant.
This is the ultimate KPI that will determine the future fate of the entire demon race!
If you do a good job, Favor of the Great Dao and rise to the top in one step.
If he didn't perform well, the Demon Emperor would be furious and throw him directly into the Solar True Fire to be burned as firewood.
In an instant, the intensity of the infighting within the Demon Race Heavenly Court was no less than that of the previous Kunlun Mountain.
The demon god Ji Meng, who was in charge of all waters, immediately ordered all his aquatic demon soldiers to be thrown into the "Seven-Colored Illusory Divine Water" to marinate them, ensuring that every scale could reflect the most dazzling light.
He even planned to unleash a "Super Meteor Shower" of pure spiritual energy in the starry sky during the tour, creating a dreamlike atmosphere.
The demon god Ying Zhao, who was in charge of patrolling the nine heavens, used his management expertise to conduct Hell-level Drill Training for his demon generals.
He demanded that the frequency of each demon soldier's wing flapping and the length of its claw strides must not have an error exceeding one millimeter.
He will use iron discipline to flex the muscles of the demon race!
Even more imaginative demon gods have begun to overtake others in terms of creativity.
"What good is just looking good! My Little Ancestor likes interaction!"
"I'm planning to have my team perform a 'Fire-breathing into Barbecue Skewers' act as we pass the reviewing stand! I guarantee it'll make my Little Ancestor's eyes light up and his mouth water!"
"That's nothing! I'm going to have my team form a giant QR code in the air! My Little Ancestor scans it with his divine sense and immediately presents a 'Demon God Autographed Limited Spirit Fruit Gift Pack'!"
All sorts of outlandish ideas proliferated wildly in every corner of the Heavenly Court.
Bai Ze, the chief designer, was so busy that the feathers on his fan almost fell off.
His biggest project was the "magical modification" of the Myriad Stars Great Array.
With the two demon emperors, Di Jun and Tai Yi, personally suppressing the array's core with the Solar True Fire and the Chaos Bell, Bai Ze cautiously began to "renovate" this number one killing array in the Primordial World.
He didn't dare touch the load-bearing walls of the great formation, as that would shake the very foundation of the demon race's kingdom.
He simply added some brand-new "Beauty Filters" and "interactive plugins" to various nodes in the formation's operation.
He used an incredibly profound array to forcibly draw, gather, knead, and shape the starlight of 365 main stars.
Finally, above the vast sea of stars in the very center of the Heavenly Court, a colossal Carousel, beyond description, slowly emerged!
That is not something from the mortal world.
Each "Wooden Horse" is a divine beast formed from the purest stellar power!
With a mane, it resembles Galloping Celestial Horse amidst a flowing galaxy.
The Qilin with its head held high has scales that shimmer like Star Diamonds.
There was even an adorable Pink Piglet whose head was shaped like a strange "hair dryer," a design that Bai Ze had painstakingly twisted into by exhausting all his wisdom.
This "Starlight Carousel" slowly turns, with billions of starlight cascading down like a waterfall, creating a dreamlike and magnificent spectacle that defies description.
It is the heart of the entire "Myriad Stars Fantastical Parade".
A unique, Emperor-level Exclusive Viewing Platform tailor-made for Lin Shen!
Three thousand years passed in the blink of an eye amidst the frenzied, adrenaline-fueled work of the demon race.
This day.
Above the Heavenly Court, all demons stood solemnly amidst a dazzling starry sky.
Di Jun and Tai Yi, dressed in the most magnificent Solar Golden Crow Imperial Robe of their lives, personally went to Kunlun Mountain to respectfully invite Lin Shen to "inspect the celestial realm" with the highest level of ceremony in the Primordial World.
When Lin Shen arrived at the South Heavenly Gate aboard Kunpeng's "Supreme Sky Dome".
He was completely stunned by the scene before him.
The vast Milky Way was cleaned spotless.
365 Demon Gods, leading their elaborately dressed ceremonial guards, stood like two endless ribbons of light on either side of the Milky Way, stretching all the way to the ends of the universe.
Some teams, clad in golden armor and wielding long halberds, had their menacing aura forcibly transformed into an imposing and awe-inspiring presence.
Some groups, adorned in flowing fairy robes, danced and scattered countless spiritual flowers across the starry sky, their fragrance spreading for billions of miles.
Other groups featured countless Bizarrely Shaped Beasts leaping and bounding about, energetically performing acts of fire-breathing, water-spitting, and magic tricks.
The entire Heavenly Court was practically an ocean of joy, a giant, cosmic Disney.
"Young friend, please!"
With an unprecedentedly confident smile on his face, Di Jun personally led Lin Shen onto the "Starlight Carousel" that had been prepared in advance.
Lin Shen sat down on the pink, Starlight Piglet with the "hair dryer head" almost without any hesitation.
The Carousel slowly started moving.
As it carried Lin Shen through this star-sea honor guard composed of billions of demon soldiers.
Lin Shen's eyes were completely filled with the dazzling starlight and the endless noise and cheers.
"Wow!"
Wow! Wow!
His face flushed with excitement, and he could only utter this most primal exclamation.
Di Jun and Tai Yi stood with their hands behind their backs beside him, looking at his completely conquered appearance, a huge sense of satisfaction and pride welled up within them.
It's done!
They exchanged a glance, and deep in each other's pupils, they both saw the joy of "the plan going through."
What about the Three Pure Ones? What about the Ancestral Witch?
In terms of grandeur, magnificence, and the Ultimate Luxurious Enjoyment by emperors, who else in the entire Primordial World could rival our demon race!
The parade continues.
Lin Shen's excitement continued.
He clapped his hands with joy when he saw the meteor shower descending from the army of the demon god Ji Meng.
He saw the procession of the demon god Ying Zhao marching in perfect unison, and curiously imitated the stomping of his feet on the little pig.
He even used his divine sense to scan a giant QR code formed by a group of demon gods, and then conjured a basket of sweet and sour "Sirius Fruit" out of thin air.
Everything was as perfect as Bai Ze's script.
Di Jun felt that he was only one sentence away from Prove the Dao and Become a Saint, from Lin Shen saying, "Uncle Demon Emperor is the most powerful uncle in the world."
However, just as the Carousel reached the middle of the parade route, the atmosphere reached its climax.
An accident occurred.
Lin Shen's attention was suddenly abruptly drawn away from the magnificent procession that stretched for hundreds of millions of miles.
He sniffed the air forcefully and deeply with his little nose.
The next second.
His bright eyes were fixed on a distant, inconspicuous, even somewhat dim, Companion Star.
On that Companion Star, something radiant captivated his entire being.
That Companion Star is the most important place in Heavenly Court, the "Imperial Kitchen".
At this moment, a wisp of familiar, rich, meaty aroma and the fragrance of cumin... smoke is rising from one of the chimneys in the Imperial Kitchen.
He is the Qiankun Food Sage!
This Old Sixth, somehow, secretly slipped into the demon clan's Imperial Kitchen!
He was setting up a Large Black Pot, in which a huge, plump "Lunar Jade Rabbit," which he had somehow acquired, was simmering!
While stewing, he excitedly pulled out various bottles and jars of mysterious seasonings from his Tattered Sack and sprinkled them into the pot.
"Hmm, it's almost Heat Control. Add a little more Solar True Fire with flavor!"
"Hehe, these demon rabbits are so much fatter than the ones outside! I'll send some to my junior brother later, he'll absolutely love them!"
The Qiankun Food Sage was happily talking to himself.
He was completely unaware that on the Starlight Carousel, a small gaze had completely locked onto him, filled with boundless longing and possessiveness.
"Bunny!"
Lin Shen pointed at the pot, and glistening saliva instantly dripped from the corner of his mouth.
"It's roasted rabbit! It smells so good!"
In an instant, all thoughts of starlight parades, honor guards, and imperial experiences were Beyond the Ninth Heaven.
Right now, all he can think about is that pot of Stewed Rabbit, emitting a deadly aroma.
He leaped off the "hair dryer" pig, and with his short legs, he completely ignored the vast starry sky beneath his feet, running as if on flat ground towards the Imperial Kitchen!
"Rabbit! Lin Shen is here!"
The confident smile on Di Jun's face gradually froze and cracked.
The Chaos Bell beside Tai Yi emitted a muffled thud, forcibly suppressed and filled with endless frustration.
Buzz--!
Bai Ze felt a wave of dizziness, as if his three thousand years of hard work had vanished into thin air, and he almost fell off the clouds.
It's over.
It's all over.
They meticulously planned for three thousand years, exhausting the manpower and resources of the entire demon race, to create this grandest feast since the World Creation of Primordial World.
It turns out...
They actually lost to a pot of Stewed Rabbit of dubious origin?
