It was no wonder Taiyi was so annoyed.
Nine Spirits' failed Thunder Tribulation had already caused him and Di Jun some worry about how the Demon Race subjects would undergo their tribulations in the future.
He had thought that with him personally protecting the Eight-Tailed Demon Fox during this Thunder Tribulation, it might have a chance to succeed. But the fact that the creature just ran away was too disappointing.
Above the Demon Race, within the Tribulation Clouds, Mo Wen's Divine Sense also couldn't help but tremble slightly.
This demon fox really had some tricks up its sleeve.
However, the Thunder Tribulation had already formed. Could it be avoided by running away?
Besides, he had made several trips here specifically to warn the brothers Di Jun and Taiyi to keep a low profile in the future. How could he just finish up without a single bolt of tribulation lightning descending?
Thinking this, his Divine Sense guided the first bolt of tribulation lightning within the Tribulation Clouds, directly striking towards the rapidly fleeing Eight-Tailed Demon Fox.
In an instant, a violent python spanned the sky, and terrifying lightning flashed, instantly blocking the Eight-Tailed Demon Fox's path.
This greatly startled the Eight-Tailed Demon Fox, which quickly activated the magic power within its body, raising layer after layer of defensive barriers.
At the same time, a shield emitting astonishing power appeared on its body, meeting the terrifying bolt of tribulation lightning. It seemed to want to use a treasure to withstand the bombardment of the terrifying tribulation lightning.
"Boom!"
A huge roar echoed throughout the entire Demon Race.
The thick lightning python violently shook, directly sending the shield the Eight-Tailed Demon Fox had conjured flying, causing it to emit mournful cries.
The violent lightning rapidly spread, instantly surrounding the Eight-Tailed Demon Fox, causing its defensive barriers to tremble violently.
Under the erosion of the power of thunder and destruction, fine cracks had already appeared on the defensive barriers around its body.
"The first bolt of tribulation lightning is already this terrifying?"
"It's over..."
Sensing the terrifying lightning and destructive intent around it, the Eight-Tailed Demon Fox cried out repeatedly.
Unfortunately, before its voice could even fade, the second bolt of tribulation lightning had already appeared within the Tribulation Clouds above.
This bolt of tribulation lightning was even more terrifying than the previous one.
Violent thunder echoed throughout the entire sky.
"Eastern Emperor, please save my younger brother!"
At this moment, the white-robed woman who had rushed out of the Demon Emperor Palace with Taiyi became even more worried and quickly pleaded with Taiyi again.
However, Taiyi was somewhat displeased by the Eight-Tailed Demon Fox's escape just now, so he didn't immediately act. Instead, he responded indifferently, "This is only the second bolt of tribulation lightning. There are still seventy more after this. If I were to act on all of them, the karma would be too great!"
"Let him withstand this bolt of tribulation lightning first!"
As Taiyi's words fell, he paid no mind to the white-robed woman's pleas behind him and remained unmoving.
This greatly startled the white-robed woman, who quickly conjured a golden jade pendant, seemingly wanting to act to help the Eight-Tailed Demon Fox withstand this second bolt of tribulation lightning.
But at this moment, the second bolt of tribulation lightning instantly fell, giving the white-robed woman no chance to act, and heavily struck the Eight-Tailed Demon Fox's defensive barriers.
"Boom!"
The violent roar caused the entire space to tremble slightly.
At this moment, the defensive barrier around the Eight-Tailed Demon Fox shattered repeatedly.
The violent lightning struck its body fiercely, causing it to fall rapidly and let out mournful cries.
At the critical moment, its eight huge tails behind it quickly extended, protecting its vital points and diverting some of the power of the Thunder Tribulation, which prevented it from being as miserable as Nine Spirits.
However, even so, it was severely injured, and its internal magic power was almost exhausted, seemingly unable to withstand the next tribulation lightning.
Sensing this scene, Taiyi sighed slightly, and with a fierce wave of his large hand, he unleashed a terrifying power, seemingly intending to envelop the Eight-Tailed Demon Fox.
Just at this moment, two figures suddenly appeared in the distance.
"Caiyun from Nuwa Palace!"
"Caiyi from Nuwa Palace!"
"Greetings, Eastern Emperor!"
The two figures were Caiyun and Caiyi, sent by Nuwa.
The two naturally sensed the terrifying Transformation Thunder Tribulation, so they did not approach, but stopped far away and bowed towards Taiyi.
Seeing the two, Taiyi's expression froze, and he couldn't help but withdraw his power. He nodded towards them and asked, "Does Nuwa have any decree?"
"Reporting to the Eastern Emperor, the Empress knows that Lu Ya, Crown Prince, has passed the Thunder Tribulation and successfully transformed. She has specially ordered us to come and congratulate him and bestow some treasures upon Lu Ya, Crown Prince!"
"At the same time, the Empress also asked us to convey an Imperial Decree to the Eastern Emperor and His Majesty: When the Demon Race citizens undergo tribulation, they must not be disrespectful to the Heavenly Dao, nor must they be disrespectful to the Transformation Thunder Tribulation!"
Caiyun and Caiyi spoke one after another. Although their voices were not loud, they instantly spread throughout the entire Demon Race.
"What Nuwa said is very reasonable!"
"Issue this Emperor's Imperial Decree: From now on, when the Demon Race citizens undergo the Transformation Thunder Tribulation, they must have a heart of reverence!"
"Otherwise, they shall be punished by the Heavenly Dao!"
At this moment, Di Jun had also walked out of the Demon Emperor Palace. After hearing the decree from Nuwa conveyed by Caiyun and Caiyi, he seemed to understand in his heart why the Demon Race had repeatedly faced such terrifying Thunder Tribulations this time.
Therefore, he directly issued the Imperial Decree.
Hearing this, the Eight-Tailed Demon Fox, who had stabilized its figure not far away, couldn't help but be stunned.
It was almost struck to death, and these important figures of the Demon Race still had the leisure to consider these matters?
Were the Demon Emperor and the Eastern Emperor not planning to save it?
Mo Wen's Divine Sense, hidden in the Tribulation Clouds, had also sensed the decree from Nuwa conveyed by Caiyi and Caiyun.
This slightly reduced the anger in his heart.
Look at Nuwa's comprehension, and then look at Di Jun and Taiyi, there is simply no comparison.
It's still the Saint who understands, knowing that some things are not within the control of the Demon Race?
If the Demon Race honestly undergoes tribulation in the future and doesn't court death, can he really continue to use public office for private revenge?
Of course, the premise was that these Demon Race members didn't provoke him, nor did they provoke existences they shouldn't provoke.
Otherwise, the Transformation Thunder Tribulation would be the greatest nightmare for the Demon Race cultivators undergoing tribulation.
Thinking of this, Mo Wen's Divine Sense trembled slightly and returned to the Thunder Tribulation Divine Palace.
Since Di Jun and Taiyi knew their mistakes and could correct them, he would give them a chance.
Anyway, the purpose of the warning had been achieved. There was no need to increase the killing unnecessarily, so he might as well finish early!
"Rumble..."
As Mo Wen's Divine Sense departed, the astonishing thunderous roars within the Tribulation Clouds above the sky gradually began to weaken.
"The Thunder Tribulation is over?"
"The Tribulation Clouds are starting to dissipate?"
"Why is this?"
"Is it because of His Majesty's Imperial Decree?"
"..."
The entire Demon Race was stunned, not expecting that after Di Jun issued the Imperial Decree, the Tribulation Clouds would actually begin to dissipate.
Sensing this scene, Di Jun and Taiyi were not only not happy, but their expressions became somewhat gloomy.
It seemed the problem lay with them, the brothers.
It should be the disaster they provoked earlier when Taiyi helped Lu Ya obtain all the Heavenly Dao Blessing.
But, the Heavenly Dao Blessing was clearly bestowed by the Heavenly Dao, so why would it need to retain a portion?
Did the Heavenly Dao need these blessings?
Unless someone secretly used means to intercept the Heavenly Dao Blessing.
Who could it be?
A Saint?
Or perhaps, that one in Zixiao Palace?
