Chapter 361 - Triad Ritual (3/3) (1/2)

The Demon God Blood Charm's effects had dissipated, and the Demon Saint's had reverted from a demon god's to an Inner Core Qi Practitioner. While right at this moment, the 14 magnates in the Heavenly Demon Secret Realm were all suppressed with only the heavily wounded Sha Qishan running for his life. All the other Heavenly Dharma giants were now dead.

While the Inner Core Qi Practitioners were still alive, how could they ever contend against the Demon Saint?

Furthermore, the Demon Saint had at least 14 Demon God Blood Charms. And although 12 had been used, there were at least two left in hand.

Even one Demon God Blood Charm was more than enough for him to clear the whole Heavenly Demon Secret Realm now, let alone two!

The Triad Ritual could now no longer be stopped!

The Demon Queen led the concubines and court ladies over to the Demon Saint's sides, there were still some Qi Practitioners that were putting up some resistance, but they were all killed by the ladies before they could get anywhere close to the Demon Saint.

The other Qi Practitioners were running headlessly in all directions as they tried to find a way out from the Heavenly Demon Secret Realm. But they all either burned into ashes in the ocean fire or died in the black spring. Some were even killed by the living insect race, and others died from inadvertently encountering the remnants of divine skills that still lingered in the secret realm.

"Shura, Mo Luo, I grant the two of you the privilege to witness my transcendence." Demon Saint looked at Zhong Yue and Shura from afar.

Shura, Xiu Hongsu, and the others quickly gathered around in a group along with Zhong Yue. Demon Saint's success was immutable, nothing could stop him now, and once the Triad Ritual was completed, he would climb back to the peak of his prowess in his last life. And if not, he would still be stronger than before as he rose into another transcendent stage that could not have achieved by ordinary means!

"Let's go. We will watch!" Zhong Yue suddenly said.

Rays flashed across Shura's eyes, and he mumbled, "There might be a chance to ambush him when he is in the middle of the ritual."

However, even he himself knew that such a possibility was merely impossible as their opponent was too strong. In addition to the Demon God Blood Charm, they wouldn't even have the chance to ambush him.

"Just exactly where is this Creator's scattered spirit?"

Zhong Yue, Shura, and the remaining crowd walked toward Demon Saint while Shura mumbled, "Why is it that until now, we've never come across it anywhere before? If only we can connect to the Creator's left remnant, we might be able to stop that brat's Triad Ritual."

Zhong Yue couldn't help but lock his brows deeply. Demon Saint had created a war against the magnates here. The battle was nearly on the scale of a fight among demon gods. Why didn't such a huge incident awake the Creator's scattered spirit?

If there were any movement in the Creator's scattered spirit, they would surely notice it, and yet, nothing had happened?

"The Creator's left remnant … Wait a minute. I know where it is!"

Zhong Yue thought of the moon spirit lady that was sealed in the underground of the Xiao Mang Celestial Temple. His body shuddered in shock, and he mumbled, "I know where the Creator's scattered spirit is at….."

Shura implored, "Where is it? Is there any way to connect to him?"

A discerning expression climbed onto Zhong Yue's face as he said, "He is just right beneath us. The Creator has no mortal body. In other words, the Creator's spirit is exactly his mortal body. He is and has always been right beneath us, right below the Black Well Keep."

"You are saying…."

The implication dawned on Shura as he exclaimed in shock, "That petrified head mountain is the Creator's scattered spirit?"

Zhong Yue nodded, the moon spirit lady god was precisely an innate god. She was a spirit that had come into existence from the perpetual worship of many living beings. From the day these spirits had acquired the elements of life, they would ascend as the innate gods. They were the spirits, and their mortal bodies were in fact, their spirits!

This meant that the saint mountain formed by the Creator's petrified head was the scattered spirit of the Creator itself.

This was clearly something they had failed to realize due to their previous assumptions of the typical form of the spirits. No one had ever thought that the Creator's scattered spirit was in fact petrified!

Furthermore, another key that had caused this was that no one else could seep their psyche into the mountain body and reach out to the Creator's left remnant all this while.

"It's not too late for you all to realize it."

Demon Saint was gentle and polite like a dignified noble, and he invited them to be seated while Demon Queen and the other ladies were preparing the ritual altar. They opened up an array diagram which was drawn inside three-foot scroll painting. However, as the scroll painting was opened, the array diagram drawn in it grew bigger and bigger, covering an area land of over a hundred miles while an altar miraculously emerged within the array formation.

The altar was huge, having nine floors where a three-mile-long little altar was placed in the middle of each level. There were also many places designated for different purposes with full functionalities. One could easily infer that this array diagram was also an incredible demon divine weapon, one that was even stronger than Demon Saint's emerald leaf and sword breaker!

This altar, was the greatest demon divine weapon that Demon Saint had ever crafted, infusing the totality of his life's insights into it!

Demon Saint then said, "You've guessed correctly. The saint mountain is precisely the Creator's scattered spirit. This is the specialty of the innate demon gods, something we can never surpass nor achieve. As long as the worship remains, the innate demon god will live eternally until the end of the world. I've been to many other secret realms and have learned of their origins. Whether it be it the innate gods or the innate demon gods, their history is far longer than ours. They have existed ever since the birth of the universe. Moreover, we celestials and demons were created by them. We are meant to serve as tools to worship them. However, along the way, things got out of their hands when we developed our own independence."

Zhong Yue and Shura were shocked; this was something they didn't know. Demon Saint wasn't venerated as a saint for no reason, his knowledge and experience were way beyond Zhong Yue's or even the ancient demon god like Shura.

Shura then asked, "Can the innate gods live forever?"

"I've been to the Zi Wei Imperial Star, I've heard that there are still some innate demon gods that have lived since the primordial days. Although I've never come across one."
