The power of the tenth heavenly tribulation was too great. Even though it was hundreds of kilometers away, it was still under tremendous pressure and had no choice but to retreat further away.

The Sword God even flew up to the Nine Heavens from behind, avoiding spreading to the earth, causing life to fall into chaos.

No one could see what was happening inside the Heavenly Tribulation, because it was already covered by endless lightning. They could only feel an incredibly powerful energy descending from time to time, accompanied by a loud noise that shook the heavens and the earth.

Everyone in the entire Five Realms could feel a tremendous pressure overhead. There were even people who could hear the slight sound of thunder, as if the sky was about to collapse, causing great panic.

“Heavenly Thunder Sect Master, why did you bring this pagoda here?” Everyone asked curiously.

Just now, when the Sword God was about to cross the Heavenly Tribulation, the Heavenly Thunder Sect’s Sect Master immediately requested the Immortal Sovereigns to use the Heavenly Thunder Sect’s Gates to move the Heavenly Thunder Pagoda over.

Now that the pagoda was moved to Tian Yuan City, lightning immediately shot out, causing great inconvenience to everyone.

The Heavenly Thunder Sect Master did not say anything more. Instead, he raised the Heavenly Thunder Pagoda high up into the sky and flew towards the place where the Sword God crossed the tribulation.

“What is he trying to do? Are you crazy? He actually dares to disturb the Tenth Heavenly Tribulation of the Sword God?” Someone said in disbelief.

“If what I expected is correct, it should be to collect the lightning power of the heavenly tribulation!” Someone laughed.

“What? Receive the power of thunder? Are you going to die? You’ve seen the power of the tenth heavenly tribulation as well. A single aftershock can kill us!” Everyone said in horror.

“You don’t know that the Heavenly Thunder Pagoda is made of Purple Thunder Crystals. It can absorb the power of thunder itself. As long as you stand far away, you can draw some of the power of thunder over. You don’t need to get too close!”

“Why is the Heavenly Thunder Sect absorbing the power of this heavenly tribulation?

“Who knows! This Heavenly Thunder Pagoda has been erected for tens of thousands of years and has accumulated a large amount of lightning power, but it has never been released. I wonder what they are trying to do!”

‘”Are they trying to simulate the Heavenly Tribulation? Creating an environment similar to the Heavenly Tribulation in the Heavenly Thunder Pagoda. As long as they survive a few more tribulations in the pagoda, wouldn’t they be able to cross the tribulation safely?” Someone said.

“Eh? This idea is really possible! In that case, isn’t the Heavenly Thunder Sect trying to gather the power of the tenth Heavenly Tribulation not a small one?” Someone said.

Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. “How dare you! No wonder you haven’t seen the Heavenly Thunder Pagoda in tens of thousands of years! Who knows how much lightning power the Heavenly Thunder Pagoda has accumulated in such a long time!”

…

Within the Myriad Devil Sect, the atmosphere was solemn. This battle suffered heavy losses. Fortunately, the Sword God was only focused on hunting down the top Diabolism giants. Most of them could still escape.

“What should we do next? The territory of the Central Domain will definitely be lost, but we have already managed the Eastern Domain. Do you want to give up and return to the Myriad Devil Palace as well?” Someone asked.

“I’m afraid it won’t be easy for them to take back the Holy City and the Sword God Mountain. The power of our Myriad Devil Sect cannot be underestimated. How can they not pay a price?” Said Second Hall Master.

“I feel that the most urgent task now is to establish the next Sect Leader of Myriad Devil!” Someone said.

Everyone looked over and saw that the person speaking was Netherworld Demon Emperor!

Right now, all of Diabolism’s major powers above the Seven Tribulations of the Dao Realm are basically dead, and the remaining are the strongest of the six tribulations of the Dao Realm! Among them, Netherworld Demon Emperor was one of the best!

Back then, before Diabolism was unified, Yin Tianhong, the Demon Lord, the Blood God Child, and Netherworld Demon Emperor were the strongest among them!

Right now, Yin Tianhong and the Blood God Child had long since died, and only Netherworld Demon Emperor was still alive. Among the people present, no one seemed to have a higher cultivation than him!

Netherworld Demon Emperor was anxious to choose a new sect master. The implied meaning was self-evident. He wanted to be the sect master of Myriad Devil!

Everyone had strange expressions on their faces as they looked at the Throne of All Devils above them, and a trace of desire to conceal it flashed across their faces.

Now that Diabolism was unified, as long as he ascended that throne, it meant that he would become the new Hegemon of Diabolism!

“Sect Leader Myriad Devil might not necessarily choose to be strong. I think we can choose one of the four disciples who were the previous Demon Lord! Among them, the Seven Night Demon Lord and the Moon Worshipping Sect Leader are Holy Son of the Devil! According to the system, it should be Holy Son of the Devil!” The Second Hall Master said.

‘”This is an extraordinary time. In order to avoid losses and deal with the Righteous path as much as possible, I naturally have to choose one that is strong enough! Therefore, I believe that if you want to choose, you should choose the strongest one!” Said Netherworld Demon Emperor.

The Second Hall Master’s gaze was deep and deep. He took out a black scroll and threw it over his head. Immediately, the scroll opened and Li Qing’s will was inside!

“The Demon Lord’s will states that if he dies unfortunately, everything in the Myriad Devil Sect will be decided by Demon Empress Liu Ke’er. If something unfortunate happens to Demon Empress Liu Ke’er, it will be decided by me, Third Hall Master, Demon Saint You Luo, and Yin Qianyu!” The Second Hall Master said.

Everyone’s expressions were uncertain when they saw this last order. The four people written on the scroll were all direct descendants of the Myriad Devil Sect. They were basically loyal elders!

Especially the Second Hall Master and the Third Hall Master. Although their strengths weren’t that strong, they were still in charge of the two main halls. This also meant that they could temporarily borrow the power of the Myriad Devil Palace!

As for the other Dao Realm experts, they were either newly promoted in recent years or joined by outsiders, such as Netherworld Demon Emperor and the others.

If Li Qing was alive, of course, they wouldn’t dare to have any dissent. But now that Li Qing was dead, the situation would be completely different.

They were all Diabolism characters, and only with enough strength would they be able to overwhelm them. If he lost this power, it would be very difficult for him to control the situation.

“Why didn’t I know that Devil Master Lord would leave a suicide note in advance? Could it be a forgery?” Netherworld Demon Emperor sneered.

‘”Since the previous Demon Lord Yin Tianhong died unexpectedly, Devil Master Lord knows that there is no absolute invincibility in this world. It is inevitable that something unexpected will happen. So, just in case, the Demon Lord left this last order to me in advance in order to deal with the current situation.” Said Second Hall Master.

After a moment of silence, Netherworld Demon Emperor said, “One son of heaven and one court official. The Demon Lord is dead. I think we should make arrangements according to the actual situation. If we want so many of us to obey your orders completely, I think most of us will not agree.”

“Then what do you want?” The Second Hall Master said.

“How about this? Let all the Dao Realm experts present vote. Whoever gets more support will get the position of Sect Master!” Said Netherworld Demon Emperor.

“Are we going to hold the election now?”

“Of course not. Of course, there must be an official day to choose a sect master. Ten days from now!” Said Netherworld Demon Emperor.

Second Hall Master glanced at him and knew that Netherworld Demon Emperor’s thoughts were that in these ten days, he would definitely use all sorts of methods to rope in other Dao Realm experts to obtain support.

“Alright, as you said, the election will be held in ten days!” The Second Hall Master said.

Netherworld Demon Emperor was a little surprised. He didn’t expect that he would agree to this matter so quickly. However, he didn’t have much suspicion. He revealed a happy expression, “That’s great. Second Hall Master is concerned about the overall situation. If I ascend to the position of Sect Master in the future, you should continue to sit on the position of Palace Master.”

The Second Hall Master cast a glance at him. His gaze was filled with meaning. He smiled faintly and said, “You haven’t become the Sect Master yet. It’s too early to say this now!”

The meeting quickly dissipated, and most of the people were preparing for the election of the sect master in the next ten days.

Second Hall Master, Third Hall Master, Demon Saint You Luo, and Yin Qianyu walked into the depths of Myriad Devil Palace and said, “Why did you agree to Netherworld Demon Emperor’s request just now?”

“I’m just trying to calm them down for the time being, so that the Devil Sect won’t split up. Although I have Lord Devil Master’s warrant, they are no ordinary people. If they have the strength to disobey me, what can I do with them?” Second Hall Master said indifferently.

“The Second Hall Master is indeed someone who has been a Grand Elder for hundreds of years. In terms of handling the affairs of the sect, he is indeed not someone we can compare to.” Devil Saint You Luo laughed.

“Do you think Lord Demon Lord can really be reborn this time?” Yin Qianyu said worriedly.

“How would I know? This matter still depends on luck, and I don’t dare to guarantee it. However, I think Lord Demon Lord is extraordinary, so there shouldn’t be any big problems!” Said Second Hall Master.

“Did the Demon Lord anticipate this calamity long ago, so he arranged for us to resurrect him?”

‘”I didn’t expect it. I was just trying to prevent accidents. The previous Demon Lord Yin Tianhong was also very spirited back then. In the end, he died without warning. Therefore, there is no absolute thing in this world. How can I not guard against this?” The Second Hall Master said.

After passing through the dense fog, they arrived at an altar in front of a pool of blood.

“The Ashes Rebirth Technique is a technique created by the Great Evil King. It has finally come into use today. I hope you won’t disappoint us!” The Second Hall Master sighed.

Very quickly, the four of them began to set up formations. Soon, nine piles of flames appeared around the pool of blood. Instead of wood, they ignited something strange … bones, fur, stones, herbs, and all sorts of strange things. The strangest thing was that these flames were all burned on a piece of flesh and blood.

Every once in a while, strange spirit patterns would occasionally appear as the flames swallowed and spat out, constantly flickering and emitting invisible and gloomy energy fluctuations.

After arranging all this, the Second Hall Master climbed onto the altar. He flipped his palm and saw a drop of blood essence appear in his palm.

This drop of blood essence was the medium Li Qing had left for the Second Hall Master to revive!

The Second Hall Master’s expression was solemn as he sat cross-legged on the altar, chanting some ancient and deep incantations.

After an unknown amount of time, the surrounding nine piles of flames gradually dimmed down, burning the piece of flesh and blood below, as well as the mixed bones and medicinal ingredients, into ashes and mixed them together.

In the surroundings, the Third Hall Master, Devil Saint You Luo, and Yin Qianyu walked in front of the pile of ashes, picked them up, and sprinkled them into the blood pool.

As he waved his hand, his mouth was also chanting an unfathomable incantation.

Countless strange patterns of fire slowly lit up on the altar, forming a huge and mysterious formation.

Like a Nirvana Flame, it transformed into a reincarnated power and merged into the drop of blood essence floating on the altar.

“We must succeed!” A look of anticipation appeared on their faces.
