Demon's Diary - Chapter 1545: Desperate Means

Due to Liu Ming’s extremely fast escape speed, he had not attracted the attention of the people before.

It wasn’t until the sound of the bells and drums that the cultivators in the nearby squares realized what was happening. They immediately stopped talking, stood up, and looked toward the main mountain with burning eyes.

Many of these people had never seen Liu Ming before, so this opportunity was rare for them.

In the Taiqing Hall, more than 20 Mystic Comprehending State cultivators hurriedly came out. When they saw that Liu Ming came with Ye Tianmei and Jia Lan, except for the Taiqing Sect’s elders, Madam Zhen and others were slightly startled. However, after scanning with Divine Thought, they were relieved.

“Greetings to Senior Liu!”

All Mystic Comprehending State cultivators bowed to Liu Ming.

“Greetings to Senior Liu!”

Upon seeing this, many cultivators on the nearby squares also hurriedly bowed. Nearly 100,000 people spoke in unison. The sound was loud and spread far away.

“No need to be polite. Everyone, please get up. The Middle Sky Continent survived this catastrophe due to its own fate, not entirely my help. There is destiny behind everything. Man follows the ways of the earth; the earth follows the ways of the heavens; the heavens follow the ways of the Tao; the Tao follows the laws of nature… As long as everyone can stick to your true intentions, you will eventually achieve the great Tao.” Liu Ming glanced at Madam Zhen and others and said calmly.

The sound was not loud, but it spread in all directions in the blink of an eye, echoing in the sky for hundreds of miles.

The scene suddenly fell into silence. Even the more than 20 Mystic Comprehending State cultivators had a look of trance. A few people even felt a sense of enlightenment.

However, there was a layer of fine beads of sweat on the lowered foreheads of Madam Zhen, Elder Hao Shou, Demon Mystic Sect’s thin old man, and the others. There was an imperceptible hint of worry in their eyes.

The silence was finally interrupted after a moment by shouts of ecstasy that erupted from the surroundings.

All cultivators were extremely excited that the Middle Sky Continent had finally survived the catastrophe that nearly wiped out the entire nation.

Of course, many of them were pleasantly surprised to hear the preach of an Eternal State.

These seemingly ordinary words by Liu Ming contained a kind of understanding of the nature law. Most of those who could attend this ceremony were talented in their own sects, so they immediately understood that Liu Ming was preaching.

This opportunity was so rare!

These people were all secretly glad to be able to attend this Eternal Ceremony this time. All the efforts they had made before were worth it.

The great Tao was simple, but these people’s aptitudes were different, and they might understand to varying degrees.

Of course, these words had another meaning in the ears of some people.

For example, Ouyang Sisters of the Ouyang Family, Peng Yue of the Nature Work Sect, and Xue Pan of the Sky Beastkin Valley. When they saw that Liu Ming, who had similar cultivation to them, had now become an existence beyond their reach, in addition to envy, they also felt a hint of contemplation and sighing.

As the leading young disciples of the Taiqing Sect, Luo Tiancheng and Sha Tongtian looked at their crushes who were indifferent to them, but now they were standing on Liu Ming’s sides. Apart from being envious of Liu Ming, they felt deep jealousy and the unfairness of fate.

Others who had more or less friendships with Liu Ming in the past or had met once, also had different expressions.

At the same time, at the top of an ordinary mountain some distance away from the main peak, Jin Lieyang, dressed in a wide golden robe, was standing there with his hands behind his back.

He looked toward the main peak with a faint golden light in his eyes. He nodded slightly at first, then he shook his head and murmured to himself,

“The cycle of karma spares no one. Everything lies within a single thought.”

Then he shook his head and disappeared.

…

“Thank you, Senior Liu, for your generous teaching!”

With Madam Zhen taking the lead in thanking him, more than 20 Mystic Comprehending State cultivators bowed respectfully to Liu Ming and stood up.

Upon seeing this, the cultivators in the nearby squares also stood up.

Liu Ming waved his hand lightly and took Jia Lan and Ye Tianmei into the Taiqing Hall.

Outside the main hall square, Madam Zhen, Elder Hao Shou, and Demon Mystic Sect’s thin old man looked at each other with resolute coldness, then they followed Liu Ming into the main hall.

The door of the main hall slowly closed.

At the same time, not long after everyone entered the main hall, a colorful aura appeared around the main mountain. After a loud buzzing sound, all the auras formed a layer of brilliant light curtain, covering the entire main hall.

This light curtain had a great isolation effect on Divine Thought, making it impossible for everyone outside to detect the situation inside.

While the light curtain formed, Liu Ming’s eyes flashed with an imperceptible light, but he didn’t stop walking and he stood in front of the main seat.

“Senior Liu, please take a seat.”

After entering the main hall, Grand Elder Xuan Yu and others stood on both sides of the main seat and bowed, then Madam Zhen said with cupped hands.

Liu Ming looked at the large seat, nodded slightly, and sat down without hesitation.

Jia Lan and Ye Tianmei sat next to Liu Ming.

Seeing Liu Ming sitting on the main seat, Madam Zhen and others were relieved.

“Everyone has had a hard time in this catastrophe. There is no need to be so formal. Please sit down.” Liu Ming saw the subtle changes in everyone’s eyes, but he said indifferently.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, everyone sat down one by one.

When these more than 20 Mystic Comprehending State elders who held high positions in their sects faced Liu Ming, the Eternal State cultivator, they didn’t know what to say. There was a brief silence in the hall.

“Tianmei and Jia Lan are my dual cultivation partners, but I have not been made public before. I brought them to here because I want all the elders to bear witness. I believe you won’t mind.” Liu Ming laughed and broke the silence first.

As soon as he said that, Ye Tianmei and Jia Lan blushed slightly.

The Mystic Comprehending State cultivators in the main hall had already noticed it. They looked at each other, then they congratulated them.

The tense atmosphere eased a lot.

This made the two women lower their heads in joy.

“Senior Liu was concerned about the life and death of hundreds of millions of living beings in the Middle Sky Continent. You took the risks and even sacrificed 2 mystic weapons to seal the space fissures. This kindness will be remembered forever in the history of the Middle Sky Continent. In this Eternal Ceremony, we and the other elders have prepared a small gift to express our sincerity, so please accept it, Senior Liu.” At this time, Nature Work Sect’s Madam Zhen stood up and bowed to Liu Ming.

“You are too kind.” Liu Ming said with a faint smile.

Seeing that Liu Ming had no intention of refusing, Madam Zhen immediately held up a red jade box with both hands, walked slowly to Liu Ming, respectfully placed the jade box in front of Liu Ming, and stepped down in a bow.

Liu Ming took the jade box in his hand and played with it with great interest.

“Senior Liu, please open it and take a look. Although the item was not very precious, it was the best we could offer.” Madam Zhen said with a chuckle.

Liu Ming nodded slightly and opened the lid of the jade box with his fingers.

“Buzz!“

Suddenly, a golden light shot out from the jade box and disappeared.

Almost at the same time, countless five-color lightning suddenly emerged from the main seat under Liu Ming.

It was Ninth Heaven Divine Thunder!

Streaks of five-color lightning combined and formed a cylindrical array around Liu Ming, Jia Lan, and Ye Tianmei.

Several five-color light streams emerged from below Liu Ming and bound his hands and legs.

At the same time, deep in the Thousands Spirit Mountain Range, in the Black Prison Peak that was always covered by dark clouds, strange phenomena also occurred.

Deafening roars came rolling in, and black clouds tumbled violently. Streaks of five-color lightning formed a thick five-color thunder pillar and rose into the sky. It made a huge arc over the Thousands Spirit Mountain Range and shot toward the main peak hall.

The loud rumbles and astonishing vision naturally attracted the attention of tens of thousands of cultivators on the mountains near the main peak. They all stood up in shock, wondering what was going on.

“Everyone, please stay calm. Senior Liu lost 2 mystic spiritual weapons in order to seal the space fissures to prevent Qu Yao from coming, so the Mystic Comprehending State elders are preparing to use this Eternal Ceremony to forge a treasure for Senior Liu.” At this moment, Taiqing Sect’s Sect Master Tian Ge appeared in mid-air and said in a loud voice.

Although he said this, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.

On that day, Grand Elder Xuan Yu did mention to him that he would craft a treasure for Liu Ming during the Eternal Ceremony, but he did not explicitly tell him that he would use the Ninth Heaven Divine Thunder in the Five Mountains Bipolar Hell. He just asked him to calm the chaos no matter what happened.

Since the grand elder ordered so, he could only obey the order.

Taiqing Sect was the organizer of this ceremony, and the prestigious Sect Master Tian Ge personally explained the situation, so everyone in the square looked at each other and sat down again with no doubt.

Since they were forging a treasure for the Eternal State, it wasn’t strange to cause such a phenomenon.

In the main hall, all the Mystic Comprehending State cultivators had landed around the Ninth Heaven Divine Thunder array at some point.

Madam Zhen, Elder Hao Shou, Grand Elder Xuan Yu, and Demon Mystic Sect’s thin old man each occupied a corner. An ancient-looking triangular stone slab was suspended in front of each of them.

There were complicated patterns on the stone slab, which seemed to be a disk array, but they were much more complicated.

The 4 stone slabs shot 4 beams of yellow, white, green, and black light into the Ninth Heaven Divine Thunder array in the center.

The Ninth Heaven Divine Thunder array immediately expanded by nearly half, and the Ninth Heaven Divine Thunder became much denser.
