Another pair of ear acupoints each revealed two brown exotic beasts with cat-like patterns and a single horn, transforming into human form, calling themselves "Mysterious Ear Immortals." Their mouths opened to emit a terrifying thunderous sound, intending to shock all life within a thousand miles to death.

Then, from the mouth acupoint emerged a fierce little man covered in sharp white teeth, calling itself "Taotie Child," with its teeth rolling like blades, using a divine skill called [Gluttonous Heaven and Earth], intending not only to devour Tao Buddha's son but also cunningly trying to consume more Source Qi.

Looking further down, there were a large number of strangely appearing Devil Immortals, such as a heap of Insect Immortals emerging from the back acupoint, all calling themselves "Chi Shen Immortals." The divine skills they employed were very familiar to Tao Qian's original self far away in the Penglai Sea, giving him a chill, clearly reminding him of past acquaintances.

However, the largest number came drilling out of the Immortal's abdominal cavity, dozens of corpse worms, each at the Perfect Realm of Ultimate Happiness, possessing extraordinary divine skills, exceptionally fierce, collectively named "Daluo Group Immortals."

Seeing them appear one by one, each releasing terrifying divine skills, intending to blast him to death by force.

Tao Buddha's son remained fearless, ordering the Immortal Soldiers, Divine Generals, and Evil Beast Wanlong to block the most powerful Taixuan Corpse Emperor while he himself stepped back from the [Taixu Copper Coffin], even closing the lid, leaving only a small gap.

Clicking his tongue, he said: "You Daoists are all unable to protect yourselves, facing death, and yet dare to speak wildly about killing me."

Upon hearing this, the immortals continued to pursue and cursed: "Little beast, you dare to boast so arrogantly, what are you worth, how can you have the power to kill us?"

Tao Buddha's son, relying on his control over the Taixu Copper Coffin, moved and emerged from the coffin.

Before leaving, he also revealed the mystery:

"Let you Daoists die with understanding!"

"It is not I who will kill you, but the Heavenly Dao of this realm."

"As the saying goes, the father's debt is repaid by the son; having consumed the blood and flesh brimming with Spiritual Resonance of the Taixuan Immortal and attaining your Dao, gaining such benefits, you should also inherit his karma debt with the Heavenly Dao Origin."

"Each of you can be considered as ancient Evil Immortals, while Taixuan Corpse Emperor is a mighty one who can perform Daoist Transformation, altogether counting as half a Tribulation Immortal... yet do you know, can you withstand the might of Heavenly Punishment?"

Upon saying the last sentence, Tao Buddha's son finally saw the color of terror on the faces of the Corpse Emperor and the Evil Immortals.

Clearly, none of them anticipated this turn of events.

Not due to insufficient Dao Heng, but because of the so-called "Spiritual Resonance Concealing," also counted as one of the Taixuan Immortal's countermeasures.

Though he didn't foresee a Corpse Emperor arising from his corpse, foreseeing the birth of corpse worms was not difficult; hence, before his demise, he used his flesh and blood to obscure Spiritual Resonance, only the Immortal intended for these Evil Immortals to give up resistance willingly and enter the Search God Realm to revive himself.

Yet, how could he have anticipated the anomaly of Tao Buddha's son arising thousands of years later?

Seizing the opportunity to deceive the Evil Immortals into entering the realm, allowing the Divination Worm to communicate with the Heavenly Dao, claiming that the ancient Tribulation Immortal had returned, hastening the descent of Heavenly Punishment.

The Heavenly Dao Origin now lacking much wisdom, as the Spiritual Response from the Divination Worm came, a reaction ensued immediately.

Only with a "boom" did the frail secret realm of the earth's crust burst open, and then a torrent of terrifying natural disasters entered the Taixu Copper Coffin through that gap, exterminating all life related to the Taixuan Immortal Monarch.

The wailing resounded within the coffin.

No matter how powerful the Corpse Emperor and Corpse Immortals were, they could not contend against the Heavenly Dao of the Search God Realm, even if an Innate Gods and Demons came, it wouldn't suffice.

Regretting their past actions, they tried to escape from the Nether Pool, but alas, Tao Qian had already blocked this escape route.

Thus, they were humiliated and forcibly refined to death.

Curiously, this Heavenly Punishment itself has its reasoning.

Tao Buddha's son quietly approached, cautiously taking a peek, immediately nodding in satisfaction:

"Good, little worms, well controlled."

"The Heavenly Dao Origin, the fool that it is, only thinks it is using [Heavenly Punishment] to execute the rebellious Tribulation Immortals, completely extinguishing their vitality, quite effective indeed."

"Yet little does it know, the way the Heavenly Punishment is unleashed, all determined by the Divination Worms, extinguishing the spiritual wisdom and heart soul of the Corpse Emperor and Corpse Immortals, while also melting them back into the Immortal Corpses."

"Mixed Element as one, Taixuan Essence combined."

"The main materials for my Ten Thousand Gods Array's array stones shall be formed."

"Tao Qian, do you find it enjoyable to watch? My method of killing three birds with one stone, is it passable?"

Hearing these few boastful words.

Tao Master silently nodded, but it wasn't admiration for the Demon Child's deceitful methods, nor his skill in gaining multiple benefits from a single action—it was envy for this guy's overwhelmingly good fortune.

However, after careful thought, all these benefits would ultimately fall to Tao Qian anyway.

Thus, he simply smiled, then closed his eyes for cultivation. Before continuing to deal with the Dao Nightmare, he transmitted a message:

"Your attainment is my attainment."

"But remember, you must be cautious in all matters. The 'Tarnished Compassion Great Tribulation' brewed by All Heavens Buddhism could erupt at any time, and it's best if you complete the Taishang Demon Abyss Array before that; otherwise, you may find it difficult to cope."

"I will also hasten the birth of Tao Buddha's son, and with his Buddhist Law, he should be able to help you ease the difficulties with the multitude of Buddhas from the Spiritual Mountain."

Having conveyed this, Tao Qian said no more.

On the other end, the Demon Child snorted at these words but knew the original had a point. He mumbled to himself: "No matter what Dao Fruit you, the Great Master of Three Teachings, finally attain, the first to realize Daoist Transformation will still be me, the Great Demon Tao."

With that, Tao Buddha's son saw that the Array Stone would still need some time to be refined, so he directly reached out and took out the Ten Thousand Demon Gourd again.

Popping open the bottle cap, he decided to shake out all the millions of Heavenly Demons and ordered:

"Little ones, as the saying goes, when one person attains enlightenment, even the chicken and dog ascend to the heavens. You've been following the Master for so long, finally, a great thing has come."

"Master wants to refine the 'Taishang Limitless Demon Subduing Abyss Array'. Now, the most crucial Array Stone is about to be completed; the rest involves gathering the essences of ten thousand demons and the calamities of hundred evils, these spiritual materials, from various realms. These tasks are assigned to you."

"You also know, within the array there are positions for Six Desires Heavenly Demon King, Five Tribulations Demon Emperor, Ten Realms Demon Lords... such commanding roles. As Heavenly Demons, gaining one can let you shed the body of demons without Dao Foundation and Spiritual Roots and formally step into Demon Path. Who knows, even I might have to call you 'Daoist' one day."

"Any position, compete with great or small merits, just go on your own."

Unsurprisingly, before Tao Qian finished speaking, a million demons stirred collectively.

No reason but the temptation was too great.

Outer Realm Heavenly Demons!

This race thrives on demon thoughts, meaning as long as there are emotional lives in the world, they can also become undying and unperishable.

Sounds excellent, but in reality, they are a unique kind of life without Dao Foundation or Spiritual Roots and find it very difficult to attain enlightenment, even more so than the "Human Clan," who are the wisest of all beings.

Of course, they aren't without a path to attain enlightenment.

For instance, the path Tao Buddha's son mentioned now is a legitimate way to attain Dao.

Thus, after the final word, a million Heavenly Demons kneel in unison, chanting "Master's great grace," and then crazily scatter to various realms, collecting spiritual materials at all costs.

No one knows the waves and chaos this full hundred thousand, having been taught by Tao Qian for years, driven by the lure of enlightenment, might cause across all heavens and realms.

Thinking of this, Tao Buddha's son somewhat regretted drawing that big picture.

"These demons, influenced long by their surroundings, are now probably a bunch of cunning and shameless troublemakers."

"The critical point is, they're all marked with Tao Qian's imprint... well, precisely speaking, many Daoist Lineages, Gods, and Demons in the Great Abyss know. The Suppressing Evil True Monarch of the Spirit Treasure Sect, who married the direct descendant of Doumu Yuanjun's lineage, due to mastering the Three Teachings, also reared a million Heavenly Demons under his command."

"As they venture into the realms to stir trouble, Tao Master's good reputation might be at risk."

"However, most spiritual materials needed for the array are in evil demon worlds like 'Heavenly Demon Great Realm,' so it probably won't affect the Longevity Realm, Earth Immortal Realm, or Mountain and Sea Realm, where Immortal Gods gather."

As Tao Buddha's son spoke the last sentence, his confidence was quite lacking.

But as the saying goes, better them than me. If Tao Master's reputation suffers, what does it have to do with me, Tao Buddha's son?
