154 Tao Demon 1 (1/2)
”Finally! Finally!” a monster of a size of an entire continent roared with happiness after a small heart within her body started to beats. If one capable of seeing through skin and flesh, they will be surprised by the fact this queen carries her own heart with sixty-six smaller version beside her own.
Amongst the sixty-six hearts, more than half of them stopped beating. But today was a great day for her because one of her offsprings located in Lowest Realm has reappeared. Because the queen is connected with the child as she gave birth to them, unless they successfully cut off her part of the heart and the children, it will be impossible to kill them.
”Mother, did one of our brothers reborn into his fetus stage again?” one of the Thirty-two monsters resting by her side asked.
”Yes! Your youngest brother is reborn into the Lowest Realm again! All of you, stop getting lazy, the time for us to rescue your brother is here!” the queen stands and nudges the children to follow her. When all of them was awake, the emptiness of the area they're located turned into the deepest hell mortal can imagine.
”Devouring Realm, open!” the queen howls and opens a portal leading connecting her and the Lower Realm. When the energy uniting the entrance stabilize, thirty-two Tao Demon with the size of a kilometer height and weight between 100,000 tonnes to 150,000 tonnes took a leap.
In the next moment, the world in the Lower Realm turned into havoc.
The Devouring Queen Mother, Tao Tie, and her thirty-two children! If one of the Tao Demon is equal to turning a Sea Region into hell, then a pack of thirty-two Tao Demon and the Queen Mother Tao Tie equals the destruction of the entire Lower Realm!
”Devouring Queen Mother! Your abnormal diets end here! Anti-Tao Demon Squadron, attack!” one cultivator leads a team of around 500 to 600 men strong squadron to fight against the Tao Demon.
”Hahaha! I wonder whose child you are, but to say that you're the Anti-Tao Demon Squadron? I hope you can give my children a challenge because...” The Devouring Queen Mother speaks using human-tongue language.
”Captain! The monster can speak the human language!” a few soldiers is stunned by Taotie's ability to communicate with them without difficulties.
”Stupid! The Devouring Queen Mother is a million years old monster with sixty-six Tao Demon child! Of course, she can communicate using the human language!” the captain knocked his subordinate's head to wake him up from muttering nonsense.
”Children... Your meal is ready!” Taotie summoned her child. With her body acting as their footing to move around. In a flash moment, the fight between cultivator against monster started.

”What kind of monster is this?” Zhang Wu Ji was surprised by the four-legged creature with a [Tao] word on the top of its head. After calming himself, Zhang Wu Ji reaches to the monster to try pulling it out from the withered tree.
And when it was out from the tree, the activity from the monster gets stronger as it started to struggles inside his arms. It moves a little more before both eyes opened to take a look at the world it lived within.
”ROAR!” a gentle tune came out from the monster as it tried to make a sound. While Zhang Wu Ji did not notice, the reaction from Sheng and his Tamed Beast changed into something else and surrounded him.
”Hiss!”
”Moo!”
”Bzzz... Bzzz...”
”Ouuu!”
His tamed beast treated him with full aggression, with Sheng controlling the movement of the earth around him and transferred everything far from his reach!
”Sheng, what happened? Did this monster...” Zhang Wu Ji looks at her as he talked, but Sheng next action puzzled him. Her hand swung upward to control the earth and created a hill to stop him from leaving that spot.
”Sheng! What happened!!!” Zhang Wu Ji cannot control his emotion and raised his voice. But that voice turned into a form of Devouring Domain that not only exhaust the Natural Energy around him, it even destroyed the earth and turned them into ashes of emptiness, a soil that not worth a dime.
”What's wrong with me? This is!” Zhang Wu Ji took a mirror out from his Spatial Ring, and on his forehead, the word [Tao] has shifted from the monster to him! When he looks at the creature on his arms, Zhang Wu Ji is shocked by the shriveling corpse!
The Sun Devouring Fruit Tree, the Infant Creature, everything is gone! Only the word [Tao] remained in this world, positioned on his forehead!
Jade Lord in her form of a ball of light approached Sheng to whisper something to her before Sheng changed the word so Zhang Wu Ji can understand.
”Jade Lord said that master is infected by the Tao Demon and turned into its host. From what she knows... Nothing is capable of escaping from the Devouring Disaster, Tao Demon...” Sheng said.
”What? Tao Demon? What is that?” Zhang Wu Ji's blankness came out once more in front of all his subordinates. But at the same time, a knock came from the outside, a sign that someone else with the same Mark of Sheng requesting for entry.
”Zhan Yu is back from outside with Xuanzhi,” Sheng replied and allowed their access. Then, a tower of light brings the two into the realm.
”Master,” Zhan Yu and Xuanzhi pay Zhang Wu Ji their respect and saw the [Tao] word on his forehead. With both of the spirits are an Inner Qi Lord before death, their rich experience immediately notices the fault on their master.
