Cultivation Starts from Killing Pigs-Chapter 268 - 265: Grand Array Suppresses Corpses, Divine Dynasty Shall Rise (Part 2)

The Shenzhou Twelve Earthly Branches Sun and Moon Rotating Grand Array was completely successful, and while Yuan Huang and others were pleased, they became even more cautious.

The giant illusion of the Demon Buddha Golden Body in the sky was now fluctuating between bright and dim, showing signs of instability.

This Buddha Talisman was a supreme treasure obtained by the former master of the Lanjiang Water Mansion during his exploration of the Underworld; after this battle, it would likely be utterly destroyed.

But Yuan Huang, at this moment, had no time to be distressed. He shouted sternly, "Fellow Daoists, the Divine Land Array is complete, True Man Zhang will arrive shortly, and we must trap the Divine Corpse."

The group of demons roared in agreement, arranging their formations both in the sky and on the ground, surrounding the Divine Corpse with dark clouds and demon fire.

As the Buddha Light gradually dimmed, the fierce blood-red light in the giant monster worm's eyes atop the Divine Corpse reappeared, twisting its centipede-like body with a sinister creak.

This parasitic creature controlling the Divine Corpse did not regard the present group of demons as a threat; instead, it turned its gaze to the increasingly vibrant Spirit Charm of Ugly Spirit Mountain with undisguised greed.

Although the Chai Kingdom Prime Minister could not control this entity, he knew its nature well. It parasitizes all things, laying eggs in various spiritual lands, and would inevitably covet the spiritual land of Ugly Spirit Mountain.

Buzz!

With the final tremor, the golden silhouette of the Demon Buddha Dharma Aspect disappeared, and the sound of Buddha chants and scriptures gradually faded away.

Although the monster worm atop the Divine Corpse only occupied a small part of the head, due to the Divine Corpse's mountainous stature, the creature was actually several dozen meters tall.

As the Buddha Light restriction vanished, the monster worm suddenly lifted its head, its three eyes burning with blood light, its mouth open to an unbelievable extent.

A green mist erupted forth, spreading rapidly around like a hurricane.

"Everyone, be careful!"

Yuan Huang's expression changed, and he quickly retreated.

The Great Ascension Stage dominates local spiritual power, with divine sense capable of observing every detail within its range.

That substance was neither evil nor poison but countless tiny monster worms with centipede bodies, double wings, and long, fierce mouths.

The group of demons was wise; a creature capable of parasitizing the Divine Corpse could not be ordinary, so they retreated immediately.

At the same time, various colors of demon fire, evil light, and toxic fog engulfed the Divine Corpse like a tide.

More than thirty Great Ascension Stage cultivators unleashed their power simultaneously, causing heaven and earth to change color, the ground to tremble, and even the Yi Earth Array beneath Ugly Spirit Mountain to activate, buzzing as it stabilized the spirit veins.

This is one of the functions of the Divine Land Array; as long as the spirit veins are gathered and not destroyed, the earth's resilience will multiply.

In other words, within the barrier of the Divine Land Array, the Great Ascension Stage would no longer cause lands to shift or rivers to flow backward inadvertently.

Besieged by so many Great Ascension Stage cultivators, even the Divine Corpse found it intolerable. Segments of its giant, tentacle-like hair broke and burned, and its skin was flayed open, palely colored flesh and dark blood splattering all over, turning to white ash upon hitting the ground.

However, the damaged parts of the Divine Corpse's body almost visibly began to recover, even the hair-like flesh strands regrowing, writhing viciously.

The group of demons was not surprised; the Divine Corpse, brought from the Underworld during the Qi Dynasty, had caused several disturbances in history—it was undying, exceedingly troublesome.

What was even more alarming was that the monster worm atop the Divine Corpse, originally beaten to pulp, was also rapidly recovering along with the Divine Corpse, howling madly at them.

"Ah!"

A cry of agony suddenly rang out, and a Sea Eye Yaksha Demon Marshal, eyes filled with terror, tore off his own arm, blood spilling across the sky.

On the severed arm, a sharp-mouthed worm like a centipede crawled back and forth, quickly laying a dense cluster of white eggs, seemingly about to hatch at any moment.

The monster worm's mist, while destroyed instantly by the group's terrifying attack, managed to release one worm.

"Courting death!"

Being the only one affected among the many, the Yaksha Demon Marshal was furious and embarrassed, immediately swinging his steel fork, enveloping his arm and the monster worm with black demon fire, turning it to ash.

Squeak!

The monster worm atop the Divine Corpse suddenly began to wriggle, crying in chaos, as the Divine Corpse's fanged, ape-like face opened its mouth wide, a whirlwind of sound waves roaring out like a tornado.

"Quick, dodge!"

Yuan Huang hurriedly warned, never forgetting how powerful this Divine Corpse's physical divine power was.

The group of demons quickly dispersed, and those slower to react were struck, their flesh flying, sustaining serious injuries.

More unfortunately, the monster worm once again opened its mouth, and the green worm mist churned.

"Use fire, don't let it get close!"

Yuan Huang was immediately alarmed, forming a spell and waving his sleeves, unleashing a torrent of blood-red demon fire.

Earlier, during their siege, the creature still managed to release one worm; if they couldn't eradicate it immediately, someone might truly perish.

The demons were both trying to avoid the astral wind expelled by the divine corpse and to fend off the encroaching insect mist, becoming instantly flustered.

At this moment, Zhang Kui flew in on auspicious clouds from the horizon, his voice resonating through the heavens and earth.

"Step aside, all of you!"

The demons hurriedly retreated. Zhang Kui, without approaching, stood atop the cloud and began to form a spell. His cheeks puffed up as he blew fiercely, causing the blood-colored Red Lotus Karmic Fire to sweep down from above the plains.

This was indeed utilizing the Transportation Skill, which the demons could not comprehend, watching with indescribable shock. This True Man Zhang could cast spells from a distance, truly beyond fathom.

Not only that, Zhang Kui also employed the Ascending Copy Skill for enhancement, making the Red Lotus Karmic Fire enormously vast, like a tornado of flames.

The strange insect mist was instantly turned to white ash, and the divine corpse was completely engulfed, its surface tendrils and the bizarre insect all turning white, followed immediately by ice rapidly forming around, akin to a massive frozen plaster statue.

The crowd of demons breathed a sigh of relief. Yuan Huang saw Zhang Kui approaching on clouds and said solemnly, "True Man Zhang, the bizarre insect is connected with the divine corpse, it too is undying."

"Don't worry, I've got it under control!"

Zhang Kui's expression was somber; this bizarre insect also had a covering of divine power, surely not of this world. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

While speaking, the ice on the divine corpse began to crack, its surface gradually returning to normal.

Roar!

Ice splintered everywhere as the divine corpse along with the bizarre insect atop its head broke free of its restraints, standing on the earth and roaring to the sky, altering the winds and clouds, emitting intimidating ferocity.

The True Sun Fire blazed in Zhang Kui's eyes as he roared, "The Divine Land Array is complete, no matter what you are, stay put, suppress!"

Buzzing!

The Divine Land, the Twelve Earthly Branches Array, and the Central Yin Yang Array operated simultaneously, a golden array suddenly appeared in the sky, with thunder clouds forming into a vortex, from which a massive golden light column fell with a rumble, enveloping the divine corpse.

Boom!

The mountain-like divine corpse could not bear it, crashing to its knees on the ground, causing the earth to tremble as terrifying fissures rapidly spread.

The sight left the demons astonished and trembling with fear.

The Divine Land Array, how could it possess such power, to even suppress the divine corpse, if it fell upon them...

How have they not been informed, this True Man Zhang is really cunning...

Despite their inward grumblings, the demons understood that it made sense for True Man Zhang to disregard the Forbidden Land; within the Divine Land Array, everyone had to obey obediently.

As the divine corpse was suppressed by the grand array, its joints creaked loudly, even producing a thunderous roar.

Yet the bizarre insect appeared hideous, undeterred in its ferocity, struggling with squawks to lift its head out of the golden light column, suddenly opening its mouth wide, as the green insect mist surged again.

"Die, you beast!"

Zhang Kui shouted in anger, his "Eyes of Eternal Life" on his forehead suddenly opening, as a bucket-thick Light of Silent Extinction ripped through space, shooting straight down with a roar.

The bizarre insect was turned into flying ash, its bloody divinity dissolved and devoured, as it then shattered pixel by pixel.

Zhang Kui snorted as he withdrew the grand array, the "Eyes of Eternal Life" on his forehead closing in tandem.

The golden light column vanished, and the divine corpse remained kneeling on the ground, entirely motionless, while the bizarre insect having been stripped of divinity, could no longer revive.

Such formidable divine power!

Yuan Huang withdrew his fearful gaze, looking at the divine corpse, his brow furrowing deeply, "This divine corpse is undying, yet how is the hole on its head dug by the insect still there?"

Under Zhang Kui's Tongyou Skill's illumination, understanding dawned upon him, "This bizarre insect parasitically drained the aura of the divine corpse to nourish itself, thus it hasn't fully recovered."

Yuan Huang nodded slightly, "Keeping this divine corpse is ultimately a menace. How should we deal with it?"

Zhang Kui's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, "Don't worry, I have my means soon enough."

This divine corpse, having its head hollowed out, was completely immobilized, perfect for some transformation.

The human race's previous dynasties failed at transformations because the Divine Soul was too weak to control the body of the Ancient Desolate God, but he possesses the Immortal Slave silver orb, perfectly matching with the divine corpse.

Perhaps, within the mountain gate, there shall be a true Dharma Protector Vajra.

But for now, there are more important matters at hand.

Zhang Kui stood on the auspicious clouds, gazing upon the four corners of the world, his voice echoing across the land.

"The Divine Land Array is complete, from now on, it will protect all lives within the Divine Continent. The heavens and earth are ordered, all things secure in their way. The Kaiyuan Divine Dynasty, founded!"
