Born to Face the Tribulation, the Demon Saint Emerges
Yuanshi's face was cold. Kunpeng was just a pawn, only meant to end the Tribulation, kill Di Jun and Tai Yi, and finally force out Ling Xiao.
As for the final fate of Kunpeng... it should naturally perish along with the great calamity.
Upon hearing this, Laozi's eyes flickered, and he said calmly, "Once Ling Xiao shows himself, it will be time for us to make our move."
"If this beast is ferocious, we will need to use Third Brother's Immortal-Slaughtering Formation."
At this point, Laozi turned to look at Tongtian, seeking a response, as a precaution to avoid any mishaps later.
Tongtian remained calm, nodded slightly, and said, "No problem."
"Hehe, elder brother, we are in the Primordial World, not the Chaos. How could we, working together, not be a match for Ling Xiao?" Yuanshi Shi chuckled and said nonchalantly.
He even felt that there was no need to join forces; it was making a mountain out of a molehill.
"We must not be careless; it's always good to be thorough in our considerations."
Laozi Tzu said with a smile that he was just making things clear in advance, and in fact he didn't think he would have the opportunity to use the Immortal-Slaughtering Formation.
"The Kunpeng was born to fulfill its destiny, and it will achieve sainthood to complete this calamity."
In another part of the Chaos, Zhun Ti looked at the Primordial World and commented as follows.
They were not surprised at all by Kunpeng's ascension to sainthood, because it was all part of their plan.
The Dao Ancestor wanted Kunpeng to become a saint to complete the tribulation, and all they could do was nod in agreement; they didn't need to think too much about it.
"Hehe, this can be considered Kunpeng's last glory." Jieyin said with a smile.
"He died a worthy death. As long as this wretched creature can slay the Golden Crow, it will all be worthwhile," Zhun Ti said.
Kunpeng, that wretched creature, lost his Green Lotus Treasured Banner. If he can kill Di Jun and Tai Yi, Zhun Ti says he can forgive Kunpeng once.
"Good!" Jieyin, his face radiating a peaceful golden light. He was equally pleased, for his great revenge was about to be fulfilled. The long-standing grudges were finally settled, as if a thorn had been removed from his heart.
Exceptionally comfortable.
In the Purple Heaven Palace, Hongjun, his figure ethereal, sat on the Nine-Layer Cloud Bed, his deep eyes gazing ahead, taking in the scene of Kunpeng being summoned to sainthood.
A fleeting hint of satisfaction flashed by.
Currently, everything is under control and there have been no deviations. Once Kunpeng becomes a saint, the fortune of the Witch Clan will also come to an end. After the Witch Clan falls, Kunpeng, who shoulders the Demon Race Fortune, will also have his own way of dealing with it.
While carrying out the massacre, they can also force the heretic Ling Xiao out and then wipe them all out in one fell swoop.
Hongjun's eyes flickered, and another thought surfaced in his mind.
"A scheme within a scheme... a plot within a plot... you wicked creature, don't you dare disappoint me!"
A faint smile appeared on his expressionless face, and Hongjun's figure became increasingly ethereal and unfathomable, high above and beyond.
In the Primordial World, Kunpeng was bathed in the Merit Golden Light, and his aura continued to rise. In the end, a vast and magnificent holy might overflowed from his body.
The atmosphere between heaven and earth was so oppressive that it was suffocating. Even though they were separated by endless distances, all living beings in the Primordial World could sense it, as if a million mountains were pressing down on their hearts.
Chaos surged, and astonishing phenomena appeared. It was vaguely visible that a divine bird bearing yin and yang was breaking through heaven and earth, tearing through the universe, and traversing time and space with its wings, rushing into the endless sky.
"Buzz..."
The Heavenly Dao trembled once more, imprinting Kunpeng's primordial spirit upon him. He successfully broke through to the next realm, ascended to the Sage status, and became an indestructible Sage.
Auspicious omens descended from the heavens, countless rays of light spread across the sky and earth, everywhere.
At this moment, all the powerful beings in the entire Primordial World fell silent. Who could have imagined that Kunpeng's seemingly outrageous actions would actually gain the approval of the Heavenly Dao and make him Sage?
How absurd this is.
With such character, how could Kunpeng become a saint?
The powerful beings of the same era as Kunpeng simply couldn't accept it; their eyes were practically red with envy and jealousy.
Among them, the most serious and unacceptable was naturally Minghe, who witnessed Kunpeng transform right before his eyes, from a bird-man into a bird saint.
Moreover, he even established a religion and became a saint!
"Where is my Asura Sect inferior to the Demon Sect!?"
The Minghe, hidden within the River of Blood, stared intently at the Kunpeng. Jealousy drove him mad, and the bloodlust in his eyes grew ever stronger, bordering on insanity.
"Heavenly Dao is unjust! It looks down on me, the Minghe?"
"Then I will prove my Dao through slaughter!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The Minghe roared in his heart, and the entire Blood River was boiling, with killing intent surging and growing stronger.
"Heh, this is the power of Sage..."
Kunpeng stood tall in the sky, his face showing joy yet also indifference. He was covered in golden divine light, his whole body as if cast from celestial gold. At this moment, he transformed into the "Golden Peng".
"What immense power!"
He felt the immense power within him; it was a completely different world from before he became a saint.
Now he truly understands what it means to be invincible.
This power transcends the mundane world; no matter how powerful one is below the level of Sage, it is difficult to attain.
They are completely different in status and on entirely different levels of life.
Kunpeng's smile widened, and a surge of pride welled up within him. He was intoxicated by this power to control everything.
Everything in the world becomes insignificant in his eyes; this is the state of mind of Sage. When one reaches this level, nothing in the world can shake one's original heart.
Their invincible power and Eternal life make everything else negligible.
Who cares about the feelings of ants?
Thinking of this, Kunpeng looked at the Sun Star, a playful sneer appearing on his lips.
"The humiliations I suffered in the past must be settled one by one. Although I have become a saint, I can make an exception and personally send you on your way."
With his Sage power, he could obliterate Di Jun and Tai Yi with the mere flick of his finger, without them having any chance to resist.
"After I deal with the Witch Clan, I'll deal with you all slowly..."
The Kunpeng, with its arrogant expression and lightning-fast gaze, swept across the vast land and the tens of millions of the Witch Clan.
At this moment, not only ordinary Witch Clan, but even Ancestral Witch felt their hearts pounding, as an invisible pressure enveloped them, making them feel suffocated.
This is a true Sage, a henchman recognized by the Heavenly Dao, capable of wielding the power of the Heavenly Dao. He is far superior to their elder brother, Dijiang, a half-baked Sage.
"So what if I become a saint! Laozi fists can crush everything, I'll beat even Sage!"
Dijiang roared and struck first, his fist piercing through eternity and astonishing the future, its earth-shattering momentum crashing towards Kunpeng.
"Commendable courage!"
Kunpeng remained calm, simply raising his hand and striking forward. Instantly, the Dao of Heavenly Dao resonated with him, and this palm strike transcended the comprehension of mortals.
"Om-long..."
Spacetime turbulence, heaven and earth shattered, accompanied by a thunderous crash like a heavenly drum. Dijiang's body swayed, and finally, unable to withstand the immense power, he was sent flying backward, his blood staining the sky.
Kunpeng slowly withdrew his hand, a smile on his face, his heart filled with joy.
"This is the power of Sage!"
"Invincible power!"
