Background / History
Luohu manipulated the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin Clans into fighting for supremacy in order to harvest the Killing Intent and Calamity Qi of their war. He used these forces to refine the Four Swords of Zhu Xian and prepare for his eventual struggle against Hongjun over the position of Dao Integrator of the Heavenly Dao. 2
Luohu led the Demon Cult during the Immortal-Demon Conflict and prepared to fight Hongjun with the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, the God-Slaying Spear, and a large demonic force. His plans once included detonating the Western Continent’s earth veins, but Beginning Qilin’s intervention ruined that contingency. 30
For the decisive battle, Luohu gathered six Peak Hunyuan Golden Immortal allies and deployed the Demon Cult’s Myriad Demons Great Formation. Hongjun countered his Immortal Slaying Sword Formation by entering with his Three Corpses. Luohu pressed Hongjun with the God-Slaying Spear, but the self-destruction of Hongjun’s corpses devastated the formation and blasted Luohu’s body apart. Luohu ultimately self-detonated, leaving Hongjun as the conflict’s victor and his own allies without the rewards he had promised. 106 108 109 113 115 116 138
After the Heavenly Dao merged with the Demonic Path, Luohu could again manifest a physical body in the Demon Realm. The Heavenly Dao released him to manage demonic affairs and sow discord among the Hunyuan Celestial Venerables, though it retained control over both Luohu and the Demonic Path. 371
During this return, Luohu and the Heavenly Dao again attempted to scheme against the Western Continent’s earth veins. The Sanqing and Twelve Ancestral Witches learned of the plan through the Heavenly Demon, Earthly Demon, and Demon of Seven Emotions and Six Desires, who had secretly submitted to Dijiang. Their defensive arrangements exposed Jidu, and Luohu’s intervention to save him was checked by Yang Mei and Wuxing. 371 374 377
Luohu secretly replaced himself with Jidu under the Heavenly Dao’s watch, then hid beneath Little Western Heaven and drained its earth veins of Innate Spiritual Qi. His concealment failed when a trace of his aura leaked while he investigated heavenly secrets. Heavenly Punishment pursued and seemingly annihilated him, but he escaped into Chaos by abandoning his body and transforming from a severed foot. 427 476 478
In Chaos, Luohu returned to the cultivation path of the Chaos Demon Gods, rebuilding himself through preserved flesh and blood, devoured worlds, hidden secret realms, and remnants of his old power. His ultimate objective remained the Great Desolation World and Pangu’s Dao Fruit of Opening Heaven. 590 612 753
After repeatedly recovering from defeats by Daoist Taishi and Daoist Taichu, Luohu found a second secret realm and a Pill Dao world, allowing him to return to the eighth layer of the Zenith Heaven Primordial Origin Golden Immortal realm. He then led his demon puppet army to assault the Great Desolation World’s Heaven-and-Earth Four Poles Grand Formation. 709 753 764 765
Luohu temporarily accepted the Heavenly Dao’s proposed alliance against Sanqing and the Twelve Ancestral Witches, while intending to exploit the Heavenly Dao before betraying it himself. During the ensuing Chaos conflict, he fought Ancestor Reincarnation and received direct Heavenly Dao Origin-force support. Although the Heavenly Dao was later sealed away, Luohu survived through another contingency hidden in a Universe World. 767 784 790 800
Within that hidden Universe World, Luohu rebuilt at an extraordinary rate by absorbing scattered Chaos Demon God fragments and following a Great Dao Law path exposed by the Great Desolation World’s ascension. This later advancement surpassed the restriction earlier believed to confine him to his Chaos-era peak. 613 654 840 870
Having reached the peak ninth layer of the Limitless Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin realm, Luohu assembled Demon Puppets, the Demon Race army, and innumerable Chaos Beasts as the final external trial for the Great Desolation World’s ascension. His subsequent fusion of Demonic Path and Heavenly Dao Laws elevated him to the Fifth Heaven of the Supreme Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin realm. 841 857 870
After the Pangu True Body, Daoist Taichu, and Chaos Green Lotus damaged his forces and drove him beyond the battlefield’s perception, Luohu withdrew into Chaos. He carved a new Universe World from a chaos storm, expending his cultivation and his companion treasure’s reserves to establish a new Demon Realm. The realm attracted and transformed Chaos Beasts while nurturing a new Demon Race, providing a base for another counteroffensive. 883 888 889 891
Luohu subsequently recovered to the Sixth Heaven of the Limitless Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm and used seven emotion-based incarnations to manipulate more than a dozen cosmic worlds. Their rulers and armies were drawn toward the Demon Realm for an invasion intended to coincide with Wutian Demon’s internal offensive. Luohu planned to conquer the Primordial Wilderness, establish a second Demon Realm there, and use its luck to regain the Supreme Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin realm. The cosmic rulers later recognized that he had used them, and his Seven Emotions and Six Desires incarnation was reported destroyed. 905 906 921
With the Chaos Beast tide nearing eradication and the Sanqing and Twelve Ancestral Witches expected to return, Luohu accepted another proposal from the Heavenly Dao. Hongjun and Jidu each created a Universe World beside the New Demon Realm, forming the New Three Realms. This rival system combined demonic power with Heavenly Dao law structures and was intended to accumulate strength, sustain confrontation with the Great Desolation World, and preserve the possibility of another great tribulation. 921
Personality
Luohu is ambitious, vindictive, and intensely prideful. He consistently regards the Great Desolation, the Heavenly Dao, Sanqing, and the Twelve Ancestral Witches as obstacles to be overcome rather than equals to be respected. His pursuit of revenge persists through repeated annihilations, losses of cultivation, and betrayals. 478 678 764
He is manipulative when advantageous, offering Jidu authority over Demon Tribulation and attempting to pressure Chaos and five other Hunyuan Celestial Venerables through old promises. When his persuasion fails, he readily considers killing them to erase his debt. 372
His experiences also make him cautious. After escaping the Heavenly Dao, he avoids exposing himself, declines to contest the Heart of Life while weak, and probes the Shichen Realm with slaves for several hundred Eons before acting. Nevertheless, success with powerful treasures repeatedly causes him to become overconfident and underestimate his enemies. 427 614 702
Luohu treats alliances as expedient tools rather than genuine commitments. Although he agreed to cooperate with the Heavenly Dao during his attack on the Great Desolation, he privately intended to use its power and turn against it once Sanqing and the Twelve Ancestral Witches had been weakened. 767
In later campaigns, Luohu displayed more refined strategic judgment. Rather than wasting strength against every enemy, he redirected Styx’s Blood God Child Avatars, targeted essential Human Dao defenders, and coordinated the Chaos Beasts’ numerical advantage through a large-scale formation. 845 872
His creation of the New Demon Realm demonstrated a willingness to sacrifice immediate strength for a durable military foundation. The difficulty of creating even this lesser world also prompted an acknowledgment of his own limits and admiration for Pangu’s unparalleled world-creation power. 888
His later schemes emphasize patience, emotional manipulation, and opportunistic timing. Rather than immediately returning to battle, he influenced entire cosmic worlds through incarnations and waited for the Primordial Wilderness’s defenders to be occupied elsewhere. He again accepted cooperation with the Heavenly Dao when a rival three-realm system offered a practical means to preserve his ambitions. 905 921

- Refined and devoured Great Thousand Worlds, converting their living beings and World Power into Origin power. 710
- Received cultivation feedback from the Demonic Path’s activity in the Earth Immortal Realm. 722 753
- Uses Demonic Path laws as a protective layer against Chaos Qi. 764

- Fused Demonic Path Laws with Heavenly Dao Laws, creating dark-gold and pale-gold ripples that eroded the Five Virtues Returning-to-Origin Formation. 858 870
- Used layered, rotating law patterns to absorb, weaken, and disperse attacks from the Pangu True Body and Daoist Taichu. 858 870
- Guided allied cosmic worlds physically through Chaos toward the Demon Realm through his demonic laws and incarnations. 905
- Displayed two-colored Buddha-Demon law patterns behind him while operating at the heart of the New Demon Realm. 921
Chaos Demon God Physiology
Having resumed the old path of a Chaos Demon God, Luohu can increase his cultivation through Chaos Qi and Chaos-origin resources rather than relying solely on law comprehension. 590
- Survived the Heavenly Dao’s apparent annihilation through a secret technique and a surviving severed foot. 478
- Restored himself by merging with fragments of his own Chaos Demon God flesh and blood. 590 679
- Earlier assessments held that returning to the Chaos Demon God path would limit him to the cultivation he possessed when Pangu cleaved him apart. 613 654
- His later absorption of Chaos Demon God legacies and Great Dao Laws allowed him to exceed that presumed limitation and advance into the Supreme Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin realm. 840 870
- Reconstructed himself after Little Nannan destroyed his body and demonic soul by preserving Essence Blood and other resurrection contingencies. 709 800
- Absorbing his scattered flesh and blood restored not only cultivation but also his youthful appearance, healed his damaged body, and replenished the treasure-light of Demonic Path Thousand Fathoms. 679
Time Long River Manipulation
While controlling the Time Long River through the Shichen Sundial, Luohu could observe future timelines, conceal his circumstances, and interfere with tributary timelines. 649 650
- Sent his World-Ending Demon Body backward through a tributary to refine two Darkness Progenitors before their capture. 657
- Altered timelines of tributaries in a Universe World to prepare an ambush against Sanqing’s incarnations. 660
- Cannot truly command the Great Dao of Time; the river and sundial were external tools rather than powers he had mastered. 649
- Repeated temporal interference drew severe backlash and risked provoking Pangu. 657 658 705
- Used the Shichen Sundial to temporarily reverse time and recover from injuries during his battle with Daoist Taishi. 672
- Accelerated time around his demonic slave army and attempted to reverse the Sanqing and Twelve Ancestral Witches to their earlier, weaker states. 700 702
- Lost the Shichen Sundial, Time Long River, and Shichen Realm when Old Ancestor Shichen reclaimed them after Luohu’s defeat. 707
Myriad Demons Return-to-Ruins Art
A Demonic Path secret art preserved in Luohu’s second secret realm. 753
- Can devour the power of myriad demons and feed it back to Luohu.
- Enables the rapid fusion of Demonic Path Origin fragments found in Chaos.
- Was directly imparted through an inheritance jade slip containing part of the art’s power. 753
Demon Puppet Command
Luohu stores and commands an army of demonic puppets accumulated from his hidden secret realms. 753 764
- The first secret realm contained a million demon puppets and Essence Blood that restored much of his strength. 723
- These puppets were war machines refined from Chaos ferocious beast bodies, each possessing combat strength at or above the Golden Immortal of the Origin level. 723
- The second secret realm contained numerous puppets stronger than those from the first.
- Several puppets possess combat power at the Hunyuan Grand Unity Golden Immortal level. 753
- By his eighth-layer breakthrough, several puppets at the Zenith Heaven Primordial Origin Golden Immortal level served at the army’s front. 764
- He deployed the army to attack the Heaven-and-Earth Four Poles Grand Formation surrounding the Great Desolation World, but the army was ultimately destroyed. 765 775
- After his later reconstruction, he again used Demon Puppets as part of a combined formation with the Demon Race army and Chaos Beasts. 841 858
Chaos Beast and Demon Army Command
Luohu can impose order upon vast groups of Chaos Beasts and demonic forces through his Demonic Path Laws.
- Formed a Concentric Circle Array that organized previously disorderly Chaos Beasts into coordinated, concentric formations. 845
- Used the array to apply continuous multi-directional pressure against the Five Virtues Returning-to-Origin Formation, reducing its ability to transform and disperse attacks. 845 858
- Reinforced Chaos Beasts with dark-gold law barriers, allowing damaged beasts and fragments to reconstitute and return to the formation. 858
- Treated his earlier demon puppet army as a probe, then cooperated with the Heavenly Dao to open a passage for the Demon Race’s true elite army. 775
- Led the combined Chaos Beast, Demon Puppet, and Demon Race forces as an ascension trial directed at the Great Desolation World. 841
- Drew powerful Chaos Beasts into the New Demon Realm through a summoning pattern, where its laws reshaped them into beings suited to the realm. 888
- His withdrawal from directing the external beast tide caused it to lose cohesion and scatter, creating an opening for the Great Desolation’s defenders. 889
- Manipulated more than a dozen cosmic worlds into assembling a large allied army for another invasion. 905
Demonic Enslavement
Luohu can forcibly enslave beings through Demonic Path Thousand Fathoms and implant Demonic Path control methods within their Primordial Spirits.
- Enslaved two Daluo Golden Immortals of the Origin from a Universe World and made them principal souls within the Myriad Souls Banner form of Demonic Path Thousand Fathoms. 590
- Subjugated Shichen Realm cultivators, including thirteen demonic slaves and eight Daluo Golden Immortals, and initially considered refining weaker slaves into resources. 616
- Planted the Demonic Path technique Demon Heart Crossing in Shi Chu and Shi Zhou to control them after their apparent surrender. 618
- Souls confined within the Myriad Souls Banner can continue cultivating and advancing, but remain under his control so long as the treasure is intact. 590
- Forced enslavement through the banner damages a captive’s foundation and makes further advancement dependent on the cultivation resources Luohu can supply, motivating him to seek apparently willing submission from stronger cultivators. 616
Formation Techniques
Luohu employs formations both to coordinate armies and to trap powerful opponents.
- Myriad Demons Formation — Passed to Jidu and the Demon Cult elders before the decisive conflict with Hongjun. With Hunyuan Golden Immortal elders commanding demons of several lower realms, it could combine their power and, under a sufficiently strong commander, unleash the might of a Saint’s single strike. 30
- Dark Heavenly Net and Earthly Net Formation — A Demonic Path modification of the Heavenly Net and Earthly Net Formation, prepared with the aid of the Time Long River to ensnare the Sanqing’s incarnations. Hongjun’s Three Corpses were also caught but escaped through the Myriad Arrays Heavenly Book. 666 669
- Limits of the Dark Heavenly Net and Earthly Net Formation — Daoist Taishi praised its modifications but explained that it could not ensnare the Martial Path, a power Luohu had never encountered. 669
- Demon Tribulation authority — Condensed into a “Demon” character whose demonic energy and laws connected to the Heavenly Dao Origin Space; Luohu used it to delegate authority to Jidu. 372
World-Ending Demon Body
Luohu’s World-Ending Demon Body operated within the Perfect Universe World as an extension of his campaign to seize worlds and weaken the Sanqing.
- Infected more than half of the Universe World with the Demonic Path and contested its Heavenly Dao for authority after entering through a Time Long River tributary. 650
- Used world authority to seal the world against Li Er and his brothers. 653
- Cultivated Darkness Progenitors, including some produced by stimulating and consuming the world’s Origin. 666
- Communicated with Luohu’s main body and used tributary timelines to prepare the ambush against the Sanqing’s incarnations. 657 660
- Its incarnation nearly brought the Perfect Universe World to destruction before Daoist Taishi and his allies defeated Luohu’s forces. 709
Emotion-Based Incarnations
Luohu deployed seven incarnations representing joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, hatred, and desire. They functioned as extensions of his will, using demonic energy and emotional influence to manipulate the strongest beings of more than a dozen cosmic worlds. Repeated confrontations gradually drew those worlds toward cooperation with the Demon Realm. 905
| Incarnation | Principal target shown | World |
|---|---|---|
| Anger | Zeus and the Greek gods | Ancient Greek Cosmic World |
| Joy | Odin and the Norse gods | Norse Cosmic World |
| Sorrow | Lugh and the Tuatha Dé Danann | Celtic Cosmic World |
| Fear | Shiva and the Hindu gods | Trimurti Cosmic World |
The remaining incarnations represented love, hatred, and desire, but their individual targets were not specified in these encounters. The cosmic rulers subsequently recognized that Luohu had used them, and his Seven Emotions and Six Desires incarnation was later reported destroyed. 905 906 921
World Creation and Realm Development
Luohu can construct and sustain worlds through Demonic Path Laws, though doing so imposes a substantial cost.
- Carved a rift through a vast chaos storm with Demonic Path Thousand Fathoms, then expanded it into a complete Universe World. 888
- Supplemented his depleted cultivation with the treasure’s reserves and linked the new world’s laws to the blade so that it could draw energy from the weapon. 888
- Established a realm capable of transforming Chaos Beasts and nurturing a new Demon Race. 888
- Allowed the realm’s elemental cycle to stabilize before withdrawing from its core. 889
- The activity of transformed beasts and newly born demons eventually made the Demon Realm’s laws self-sustaining. 905
- Used the Demon Realm’s accumulated luck to restore Demonic Path Thousand Fathoms. 905
- Integrated the New Demon Realm with two Universe Worlds created by Hongjun and Jidu, forming the New Three Realms through interwoven demonic and Heavenly Dao laws. 921
Equipment / Weapons / Items
- Immortal Slaying Sword Formation — Luohu’s major formation; described as unbreakable except by four Saints. 30
- God-Slaying Spear — Former killing treasure of Beast Emperor Shen Ni. 30
- Twelve-petal World-Ending Black Lotus — Used above his head while he personally attacked Hongjun with the God-Slaying Spear inside the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation. 110
- Demonic Path Thousand Fathoms — High-grade Chaos Spiritual Treasure and Luohu’s companion treasure from the Chaos era; can take the form of the Myriad Souls Banner. It escaped after Luohu’s defeat by Daoist Taishi’s disciples and later remained at his side within his hidden Universe World. Luohu subsequently drained its reserves to create and sustain the New Demon Realm, then restored it using the realm’s accumulated luck. 590 709 840 888 905
- Shichen Sundial — Top-grade Chaos Spiritual Treasure originating from Old Ancestor Shichen; Luohu refined its first restriction but later lost it when Shichen reclaimed it. 633 707
- Time Long River — Controlled through the Shichen Sundial for a time; later reclaimed by Shichen Ancestor. 633 707
- Three Five Elements Banners — Innate Supreme Treasures: the Central Yellow Emperor Thick Earth Supporting Heaven Banner, Eastern Azure Emperor Yi Wood Eternal Spring Banner, and Li Fire Banner. Daoist Taishi later collected them alongside the other two Five Elements Banners. 702 708 709
- Hongmeng Purple Qi — Forced by the Heavenly Dao to integrate it into his Primordial Spirit as a means of control. 390
- Xuan Ming Demonic Armor — Defensive demonic armor used to resist Shi Chu and Shi Zhou’s time-based attacks in the Shichen Realm. 617
- Two low-grade Chaos Spiritual Roots — Obtained from his second secret realm; used to nourish the Demonic Path Origin and stabilize his foundation. 753
- Demonic sword — A powerful sword wielded during the assault on the Great Desolation World’s protective formation. Its black blade was condensed from his eighth-heaven cultivation, and Heavenly Dao Origin empowerment later recast it with golden law markings. 765 766 790
Relationships
- Hongjun — Ancient enemy and rival; Luohu prepared the Demon Cult and Immortal Slaying Sword Formation for their conflict. The two temporarily cooperated against Daoist Taichu when their interests aligned, while Hongjun later pursued Luohu’s main body for the Time Long River. Hongjun subsequently acted as a Heavenly Dao envoy and created one of the worlds incorporated into Luohu’s New Three Realms. 30 418 662 921
- Jidu — Great Elder and former subordinate. Luohu offered him authority over Demon Tribulation, but also used him in a “replacing a peach with a plum” deception and ordered the deaths of other demon leaders. Despite this betrayal, the two later cooperated when Jidu joined Hongjun as a Heavenly Dao envoy and created another Universe World beside the New Demon Realm. 30 372 476 921
- Heavenly Dao — Temporary controller and employer after merging with the Demonic Path; later exposed and attempted to annihilate Luohu with Heavenly Punishment. Luohu subsequently formed a temporary alliance with it against Sanqing and the Twelve Ancestral Witches and received its Origin-force empowerment. During the ascension war, the Heavenly Dao Will also resonated its laws and the Great Desolation’s Calamity Qi with Luohu’s power. After that campaign failed, it again sought his cooperation to establish the New Three Realms and preserve the possibility of a vast tribulation. 371 476 478 767 790 858 870 921
- Chaos, Devour, Darkness, Plague, Destruction, and Slaughter — Former Dao companions whom Luohu tried to recruit; they rejected him and demanded fulfillment of his past promises. 372
- Heavenly Demon, Earthly Demon, and Demon of Seven Emotions and Six Desires — Former Demon Cult subordinates who secretly submitted to Dijiang. Luohu suspected their disloyalty, ordered them to reinforce the Heavenly Court, and instructed Jidu to reclaim their Demon Tribulation authority and kill them. 371 372 374
- Old Ancestor Shichen — Secret manipulator who allowed Luohu to serve as a means of returning the Shichen Realm, Sundial, and Time Long River to the Great Desolation; later reclaimed them and abandoned Luohu. 614 648 707
- Sanqing and the Twelve Ancestral Witches — Primary enemies in Luohu’s campaign against the Great Desolation; their combined forces repeatedly thwarted his schemes and prevented him from breaching the Heaven-and-Earth Four Poles Grand Formation. Their Pangu True Body phantom and Daoist Taichu later damaged Luohu’s Concentric Circle Array during the ascension conflict. Luohu subsequently tried to exploit their involvement in clearing Chaos Beasts, but their imminent return prompted him to shift toward the New Three Realms strategy. 702 705 765 857 883 905 921
- Daoist Taishi — Pursued Luohu after his defeat and used him as a test for five disciples. 707 708
- Shi Ritian, Martial Ancestor, Ye Fan, Chu Luoli, and Little Nannan — Daoist Taishi’s five disciples who jointly defeated the wounded Luohu. Little Nannan delivered the final purification attack that destroyed his body and demonic soul, though he revived through concealed Essence Blood. 707 708 709
- Ancestor Reincarnation — Eighth-layer opponent who confronted Luohu in Chaos with the Six Paths of Reincarnation and was temporarily pressured after the Heavenly Dao empowered Luohu. He later identified Luohu’s rapid advancement as being fueled by Chaos Demon God legacies. 784 790 858
- Shi Chu and Shi Zhou — Fourth-layer Daluo Golden Immortals of the Shichen Realm whom Luohu forced into apparent submission and implanted with Demon Heart Crossing. 616 618
- Yang Mei and Wuxing — Hunyuan Celestial Venerables who intervened through phantoms to protect Hong Yun and Zhen Yuanzi from Luohu’s saintly pressure, forcing him to withdraw and leave behind the “Demon” character. 377
- Zhen Yuanzi — Earth Immortal Dao defender whose Earth Book barriers were breached by Luohu during the ascension war; his body was destroyed, but the Earthly Dao Origin preserved his Primordial Spirit. 870
- Fuxi — Human Dao defender defeated after Luohu broke through his defensive line; the Human Dao Origin preserved Fuxi’s Primordial Spirit. 870
- Di Jun — Heavenly Dao defensive-line commander whose Solar True Fire barrier was broken by Luohu; his Primordial Spirit was preserved within the Heavenly Dao Origin. 870
- Suiren, Youchao, and Ziyi — The Three Ancestors of the Human Race. Luohu successively destroyed their Kindling Way, Settled Abode Way, and Garment Way defenses, while the Human Dao Origin preserved their Primordial Spirits. 872
- Zeus, Odin, Lugh, and Shiva — Cosmic rulers targeted by Luohu’s Anger, Joy, Sorrow, and Fear incarnations respectively. Their compromised judgment helped assemble his allied invasion force, though the strongest beings of the participating worlds later realized that Luohu had used them. 905 906
- Wutian Demon — An indirect internal ally in Luohu’s proposed invasion strategy. Luohu intended his external assault to coincide with Wutian’s expansion inside the Primordial Wilderness, but no direct agreement between them was shown; Wutian was later stalled at Two Realms Mountain. 905 921
Story Role / Major Arcs
Immortal-Demon Conflict preparations
Luohu completes the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, strengthens the Demon Cult, and prepares to oppose Hongjun. He also passes the Myriad Demons Formation to the Demon Cult elders. 30
Decisive battle against Hongjun
Luohu gathers six Peak Hunyuan Golden Immortal helpers and faces Hongjun above Mount Sumeru while their allied forces battle outside. He deploys the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, but Hongjun summons his Three Corpses to provide the four powerful beings needed to challenge it. Within the formation, Luohu attacks with the God-Slaying Spear and Twelve-petal World-Ending Black Lotus. 106 108 109 110
Hongjun’s Three Corpses self-destruct under Luohu’s pressure, devastating the formation and Mount Sumeru. Luohu’s body is blasted apart, and his subsequent self-detonation grievously injures Hongjun but does not prevent Hongjun’s final victory. His six allies receive none of the promised benefits. 113 115 116 138
Return through the Demonic Path
The Heavenly Dao merges with the Demonic Path and permits Luohu’s return to the Demon Realm. Luohu dispatches his former demon subordinates, grants Jidu temporary Demon Tribulation authority, attempts to recruit former allies, and deceives the Heavenly Dao about his failure. 371 372
His renewed scheme against the Western Continent’s earth veins is exposed through the three demons’ allegiance to Dijiang. When Hong Yun and Zhen Yuanzi reveal and injure Jidu, Luohu intervenes, but Yang Mei and Wuxing prevent him from harming them and force him to leave the “Demon” character behind. 374 377
Exposure and escape from the Great Desolation
After hiding beneath Little Western Heaven, Luohu is exposed by the Heavenly Dao and hunted with Heavenly Punishment. Though apparently annihilated, he escapes into Chaos and vows revenge. 427 476 478
Shichen Realm campaign
Luohu discovers the Shichen Realm, probes it through demon slaves, refines the first restriction of the Shichen Sundial, and seeks to seize the Shichen Realm and Time Long River. Shichen Ancestor covertly manipulates him throughout this campaign. 614 633 648
Time interference and defeat
Luohu uses the Time Long River to alter events in a Universe World and target Sanqing’s incarnations. He later returns toward the Great Desolation with the Time Long River, Shichen Sundial, Demonic Path Thousand Fathoms, and three Five Elements Banners, but Daoist Taichu overwhelms him with the Twenty-Four Petal Creation Green Lotus. 657 660 702 705
Loss of Shichen’s treasures and revival
Shichen Ancestor reclaims the Shichen Sundial, Time Long River, and Shichen Realm, leaving Luohu vulnerable. Daoist Taishi’s disciples defeat him, but his Essence Blood enables a weak revival. Luohu then devours worlds to rebuild his strength. 707 709 710
Recovery in Chaos
Luohu locates a second secret realm containing origin essence blood, Chaos Spiritual Roots, the Myriad Demons Return-to-Ruins Art, and a stronger puppet army. He later refines a Pill Dao world to reach the eighth layer of the Zenith Heaven Primordial Origin Golden Immortal and marches toward the Great Desolation with his demonic puppets. 753 764
His seventh-heaven breakthrough also causes the Demonic Path to surge in the Great Desolation and Mountain and Sea Realm. The Heavenly Dao exploits this development to add a seventh, Buddhist-Demonic Tribulation, complicating the efforts of the Sanqing’s disciples to weaken the existing calamities. 754
Assault on the Great Desolation World
At the head of his demon puppet army, Luohu attacks the Heaven-and-Earth Four Poles Grand Formation and attempts to break it with a demonic sword. Sanqing and the Twelve Ancestral Witches reinforce the formation while contending with Heavenly Dao Tribulations in the four realms. 765
Heavenly Dao alliance and Chaos battle
Luohu accepts a temporary alliance offered by Hongjun’s Three Corpses on behalf of the Heavenly Dao, intending to use the Heavenly Dao before eventually betraying it. After his puppet army is destroyed, he clashes with Ancestor Reincarnation in Chaos and receives direct Heavenly Dao Origin-force support. 767 775 784 790
As his forces suffer heavy casualties, Luohu threatens to withdraw unless the Heavenly Dao intervenes. Its continued Origin empowerment later stabilizes his cultivation at the First Heaven of the Limitless Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin realm. 782 795
Hidden resurrection
Following the sealing of the Heavenly Dao’s will and the end of the Chaos battlefield, Luohu survives through a fragment of Primordial Spirit and a drop of Essence Blood concealed in a hidden Universe World. He begins rebuilding once more. 800
Great Desolation ascension trial
Luohu absorbs Chaos Demon God fragments and Great Dao Laws in his hidden Universe World, ascending to the peak ninth layer of the Limitless Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin realm. He then gathers Demon Puppets, the Demon Race army, and Chaos Beasts into a Concentric Circle Array and leads them toward the Great Desolation World’s ascension gateway. 840 841 845
The awakened Heavenly Dao coordinates with him from within the Great Desolation, adjusting its internal law structures while Luohu applies pressure from outside. This renewed cooperation slows the defensive law domains and prepares the later resonance between Calamity Qi and his demonic ripples. 842 858
Overwhelming the outer defenses
With his Demonic Path Laws strengthened through resonance with Heavenly Dao Laws, Luohu reaches the Fifth Heaven of the Supreme Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin realm. He overwhelms the Pangu True Body phantom and Daoist Taichu, destroys the defensive bodies of Zhen Yuanzi, Fuxi, and Di Jun, and subsequently defeats the Three Ancestors of the Human Race while concentrating pressure on the Five-Colored Light Screen. 857 870 872
Decline beyond perception
Pangu True Body, Daoist Taichu, and the Chaos Green Lotus eventually launch a sustained counterattack against Luohu’s forces. His outer Demonic Path principles fracture, his law ripples diminish, and he fades beyond the battlefield’s range of perception while shielding the remaining Chaos Beasts. 883
Creating the Demon Realm anew
Luohu stops at a vast chaos storm and uses Demonic Path Thousand Fathoms to carve and expand a rift into a complete Universe World. The effort nearly exhausts his cultivation, forcing him to draw on the weapon’s reserves and link its power to the newborn realm. He summons Chaos Beasts into it, allows its laws to transform them, and establishes a new Demon Race as the foundation of another war against the Primordial Wilderness. 888
After the realm’s elemental cycle stabilizes, Luohu withdraws from its core. Without his ongoing direction, the external Chaos Beast horde scatters and becomes vulnerable to the Great Desolation’s defenders. The Heavenly Dao subsequently acknowledges that Luohu has been driven back. 889 891
Beguiling the cosmic worlds
Having recovered to the Sixth Heaven of the Limitless Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm, Luohu directs seven emotion-based incarnations through Chaos. They influence more than a dozen cosmic worlds, including those ruled by Zeus, Odin, Lugh, and Shiva, and draw their worlds and armies toward the Demon Realm. He restores Demonic Path Thousand Fathoms with the realm’s luck and prepares an external invasion while Wutian Demon causes disruption inside the Primordial Wilderness. 905
The participating cosmic rulers later identify that Luohu has used them after assessing the unexpectedly powerful Chaos Beast forces outside the Great Desolation. By the time the Heavenly Dao adopts its next strategy, Luohu’s Seven Emotions and Six Desires incarnation has been destroyed and Wutian’s advance remains blocked. 906 921
Establishing the New Three Realms
As the Great Desolation’s ascension nears completion and its strongest defenders prepare to return, the Heavenly Dao sends Hongjun and Jidu to negotiate with Luohu. They propose building two Universe Worlds beside the New Demon Realm to create a rival three-realm system. Luohu agrees because the arrangement allows him to continue accumulating power and preparing a tribulation despite the failure of his immediate schemes. 921
Hongjun and Jidu each create a world, and the three realms begin operating together through dark-gold demonic energy and Heavenly Dao laws. Luohu remains at the heart of the New Demon Realm as the New Three Realms prepare for continued confrontation with the Great Desolation World. 921
