to do."Jixindao raised his head and glanced at Qin Sang, stroking his long beard and saying, "Young man, you are in your prime. Why would you humble yourself to the mountains and wilderness Go to the...Two statues of demon kings appeared. One was a ferocious earth armored dragon, and the other was humanoid, its whole body shimmering with red light, like a fire spirit that walked out of the flames.
As the two sides fought, the two demon kings silently activated their divine appearances, connecting with a nearby illusion.
That fantastical scene was a world of flames, with rivers of lava crisscrossing the land, bringing scorching heat. The ground was covered in black rocks, gleaming like metal, hardened by years of fire.
Countless fireflies dance in the void, everywhere.
The fire sea that reaches the sky, incinerating the eight wastelands!
The two Demon Kings' target was right here. The Earth-Armor Dragon heaved the rocks and boulders, while the Fire Spirit gathered blazing flames into the sky.

'Whew! Whew!'
A crimson hurricane raged through the illusion.
The flames of the wind are constantly absorbing the surrounding fire, becoming deeper in color and more powerful.
At the same time, a thunderous roar shook the earth, tearing the ground apart. Deep trenches crisscrossed the landscape, and massive rocks flew into the air.
"Wow!"
The fire wind swept over, engulfing the giant stone, and the sound of collisions echoed from within the flames.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Rocks pierce the emptiness, flames radiate in all directions.
In the midst of chaos, both flames and black stones underwent a peculiar transformation, extracting their essence and discarding their impurities. The fire and earth power within the illusion was activated by the joint efforts of the two demon kings.
Not long after, a massive black stone burning with flames appeared, suspended in the air.
'Hum!'
A tremor of the giant stone caused the entire illusionary space to ripple violently.

With the chaos escalating, the boulder finally moved, erupting in an instant with extreme speed, shooting toward beyond the illusion.
"Boom!"
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
The barrier between illusions has been breached.
The nearby illusion was a pitch-black void. A massive meteorite from outer space crashed in, shattering the silence here. It was engulfed in fire, half of the sky turning crimson with the dazzling red light.
>
The flame giant stone, like a comet, dragged its long tail of fire across this void, leaving behind a trail of crimson that would never fade.
Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Flaming Colossus pierced through the phantasmagoria, getting ever closer to the battlefield.
Two demon kings' figures retreated to the outskirts of the battlefield, slightly raising their heads to look towards the direction where the fiery giant stone was flying. Divine light burst forth from their bodies, intertwining with each other, their aura constantly rising. Their eyes flickered with excitement and a bloodthirsty gleam.
When the cultivators of the Daoist sect realized something was amiss and tried to interrupt the two demon kings' magical powers, it was already too late.
The demon cultivators discovered that the Taoist sect's formations were attempting to move towards the two demon kings, and they desperately tried to stop them.
“There! What is that”
A Taoist master lifted his head and saw the sky turning red at the horizon, faintly seeing a crimson rainbow. He was greatly shaken and his face paled in shock as he cried out in alarm.
More and more real people are discovering the anomalies. Everyone feels that suffocating, terrifying power.
The three great masters were also looking grave at the moment.
The old Taoist remained calm in the face of danger, his expression composed. He reached into his bosom and pulled out a golden rope, secretly transmitting sound to the other great immortals. He was about to throw the golden rope into the air.
Just at this critical moment, Xiangyun experienced an unprecedented violent tremor.
This tremor was not only violent, but also had a peculiar ripple effect that spread from the center of the auspicious cloud.
On the battlefield, even the lowest-ranking demon soldier could sense that this wave of energy was unusual.
For a moment, all eyes were drawn to the auspicious cloud.
The white-clothed Demon King advanced another ten zhang, but this didn't obstruct everyone's view because the auspicious clouds became extremely thin as they trembled.
The imperial decree was gone. The white-clad Demon King stared intently into the depths of the auspicious clouds, ignoring the scrutiny from behind him.
Within his line of sight, lay the source of the tremors; there, at some unknown time, a multi-colored vortex had appeared.
The vortex churned the clouds, starting small but expanding at an incredible speed. A half-order lay in its center; moments later, it sank deep into the swirling maelstrom.
This fluctuation is clearly related to the Divine Court, originating from the depths of the vortex.
The White-Robed Demon King seemed to have discovered some secret, as if he had opened a passageway to the Divine Court.
The demon cultivators of the ghost nation rejoiced, while the numerous true immortals of Taoism all changed color in alarm.
To make matters worse, a meteorite from the heavens has already appeared in the eyes of all the disciples. The celestial power is overwhelming and charging straight at them.
Zhu Zhen could already imagine how miserable it would be to be struck by the flaming boulder.
>
However, more urgent than celestial meteorites is breaking through the demon formation and stopping the White-robed Demon King from entering the Divine Court first.
If the temple is once occupied by demons, the consequences are unimaginable.
Between the past and the future, it's hard to balance. Many are anxious, their hearts burning with urgency, they all look to the old Taoist priest.
The old Taoist's movements froze slightly, his face shifting through several expressions. He even retracted the golden rope from his hand and, in its place, drew out a small seal.
This seal is carved from inkstone, measuring one and a half inches square. Though small and delicate, it exudes an ancient aura, like a divine seal from antiquity.
There are a few prominent cracks on the surface of the divine seal, but the body of the seal itself is not broken.
The old Taoist's palm shook, the Bao Yin flew up, and the cultivators were able to see the words on its face.
"Northern Polar God-Killing Seal!"
>
A demon king, upon seeing the inscription, gasped in astonishment, a hint of fear flashing in his eyes.
>
This kind of fear is not truly fear, but rather an instinctual response originating from our ancestors.
This demon king's ancestor was once a ghost under the Daoist court, belonging to the Fengdu Underworld and under the jurisdiction of the Beiji Exorcism Institute.
As its name suggests, the Northern Pole Execution God Seal has the effect of deterring both Yin and Yang deities. Wielding this seal allows one to monitor the merits and demerits of ghosts and gods, and control life and death. Even ghosts and gods show respect to it.
After countless years, the descendants of ghosts and gods had long since left the Dao court, but the fear of this divine seal still lingered in their blood.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
This seal is surprisingly still preserved in the Daoist temple. It appears to be in relatively good condition, and its power likely hasn't diminished much.
At the same time they were surprised, the myriad demons also felt a tinge of confusion. Among the demon kings who had entered the altar this time, there was no presence of Shinto demon cultivators.
The Shinto demon cultivators of this era cultivate the Shinto school derived independently by the Ghost Fang Kingdom. Although it originated from the Daoist School's demonic path, there are distinctions, and they may not be suppressed by this divine seal.
What was the old Taoist's intention in taking out this seal
The monsters didn't hesitate for too long.
The old Taoist priest raised the Northern Dipper Killing God Seal, but didn't activate it. He flicked his robe sleeve and took out another object, a yellow scroll.
The yellow scroll was slowly unfurled.
A dark yellow light permeated, as thick as the earth itself. At the center of this darkness, a black qi appeared, emanating a chilling coldness, like the Yin Qi harvested from the Nine Netherworlds.
"Wow!"
The yellow scroll lay completely spread out, a little smaller than the talismans on the old Taoist's altar, but irregularly shaped, like a piece torn from a cloth.
'Huff huff huff...'

A cold wind howled, and all the cultivators on the battlefield felt a piercing chill.
What is this
One demon king saw something, his face full of surprise. The other demon kings soon understood as well.
There were cries of astonishment, "The Twenty-Four Heavens Prison Record! It's a remnant of the Yintian Palace's Twenty-Four Heavens Prison!"
As gasps erupted, the mysterious yellow aura within the scroll suddenly expanded at an incredible speed. The scroll itself grew larger, a tiny piece of parchment seeming to become infinite.
In an instant, the heads of the cultivators were enveloped by boundless Xuanhuang Qi.
All the cultivators seemed to be standing beneath a vast expanse of dusky yellow earth, their hearts filled with awe.
But in the middle of the yellow and dark, that yin qi still existed, and it expanded along with the yellow scroll.
The oppressive, thick miasma seemed to hang in the air, a palpable mass like a mountain rising from the ochre-tinged landscape.
Within the gloomy atmosphere, there was indeed a mountain. From it came wails and howls of ghosts, as if tens of thousands of spirits dwelled within its depths.
This mountain is nothing but a heavenly prison!
This yellow scroll was precisely the Twenty-Four Heavenly Hells Diagram created by the later master of Taoism for divination and celestial teachings. It was used to subdue demons and spirits, refining them into ghost soldiers, judging their merits and demerits. Those who wished to surrender were allowed to merge with divine energy, becoming ghosts and gods.
However, even these remnants are no longer considered complete pictures. They are merely fragments that were obtained by the ancestors of the Yintian Palace. Using these fragments, they founded the Yintian Palace and, based on them, created a new set of talismans for the palace – the Beidi Fu Mo Secret Talisman.
But due to his cultivation level, the Beidi Demon Suppression Secret Manual only reaches the third level at its highest.
The Beidi Fumo Secret Scroll is connected to the Twenty-Four Heavens Prison Remnant Diagram, not the Divine Court, so the Yintian Palace is the most unique existence in Taoism. Because it is a remnant diagram, there are limitations to its existence.
Within the remains, a heavenly prison is established, capable of containing ghost soldiers. It also holds talismans left behind by powerful beings from ancient times.
In the past, Fengdu and the Divine Court were connected, and it wasn't a situation where Shinto was the sole dominant force. Inside Fengdu, ghosts and talisman spirits coexisted.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
On a cloudy day, the Yintiangong selected some ghost soldiers and had them merge with some talisman spirits, transforming them into ghosts and gods.
The demonic commanders led their legions of ghost soldiers, obeying the orders of the Yintian Palace True Person.
Yintian Palace cultivators have one advantage over those from the Dao Gate: they can perform the technique of Summoning Divine Spirits, summoning the talisman spirits from the Twenty-Four Heavenly Prisons Record to serve them.
The Yintian Palace established its sect on Mount Zhi, taking root in the Huangquan Dao. Its purpose is to capture monsters on the battlefield, replenish the Heavenly Prison, and train ghost soldiers.
In a sense, the 24-Day Prison Picture Scroll is also a strategic treasure.
The environment inside the formation is special, making it impossible to use powerful artifacts. The Twenty-Four Heavens Prison Diagram is just right for this situation. The Dao Court secretly borrowed this treasure and brought it into the formation.
Heaven's Prison appears!
A heavy sense of gloom descended, accompanied by ghostly wails that chilled the soul.
The howl grew sharper and more piercing.
Because only a fragment of the picture remained, the foundation of the Heavenly Prison was unstable. The Yintian Palace set up a large formation on Heiming Mountain, placing the remaining fragment within the formation, thus stabilizing the Heavenly Prison.
Now that they have entered the court of governance, the ghost soldiers feel the binding force on them weakening. Some of those with fierce tempers begin to clamor.
>
Even those who had already surrendered to the Yintian Palace and been granted the title of Ghost Generals, some began to have second thoughts. They appeared one after another above Tianyu, exchanging glances, and looking up at what lay beyond Tianyu.
Some eyes glittered with excitement, while others hesitated, ultimately giving in to the clamor of the ghost soldiers. They did not restrain the ghost soldiers, allowing chaos to spread unchecked.
However, they are also subject to the Heavenly Prison and cannot escape easily. They prepare to watch and wait for changes.
"Hmph!"
The old Taoist saw through their thoughts like a blazing fire, and with a flick of his whisk, the Seal of the Heavenly Executioner from the North Pole manifested as a beam of light toward the Netherworld Prison.
The next moment, all the demons and gods felt a chill run down their spines. Then, they saw six large, crimson characters appear above the Heavenly Prison.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
It is the North Pole's God-Killing Seal!
They couldn't see the full form of the divine seal, only the inscription. The six large characters seemed to be stained crimson with blood, radiating a terrifying and sinister aura as they descended from the heavens.
All the ghosts and demons were astonished and terrified, feeling that if they were touched by the inscription, their souls would be scattered.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
In shock and fear, they all knelt down trembling, not daring to harbor even the slightest evil thought.
"Imperial decree, hereby to be obeyed."
You, demons and ghosts, still refuse to appear!
The old Taoist priest roared in anger.
“By order of the law!”
All ghosts and demons bowed their heads, stood up, and looked towards the Heavenly Prison. With a wave of his command token in hand...
'Bang! Bang! Bang!'
The prison gate creaked open, and a wave of black energy surged out. The ghostly wails suddenly amplified several times over.
All the ghosts and gods were furious, glaring at the rogue ghost soldiers who were causing chaos. They swung their whips fiercely.
‘Snap! Snap! Snap!’
A chilling wail of ghostly cries echoed through the air, abruptly silencing all the clamor. The ranks stood firm and, at the old Taoist's command, surged out of the Heavenly Prison.
>
"Ouch!"
"Haha!"
"桀桀桀桀…" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
The eerie howls echoed incessantly. While they were said to be the wails of ghostly soldiers, most were actually ferocious beasts and demon cultivators from the Ghost Fang Nation that Yin Tian Palace had imprisoned over the years. However, having been confined in the Heavenly Prison for so long, their tempers had become twisted and they grew even more bloodthirsty.
All sorts of ghosts and spirits led their ghostly armies towards the enemy, immediately launching into a frenzied battle.
But the old Taoist’s movements didn't cease. He gazed upwards at the Heavenly Prison Remnant Diagram, pinched his fingers into a mystic seal, stepped on the Celestial Pole Formula, and chanted words in his mouth.
This tag will not be translated.
"The Eastern Mountain Divine Incantation, summoning the Nine Heavens."
The book of red talismans, made at Mount Fengshan.
Conjuring demons to banish ghosts, nothing escapes his punishment.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
All those who have received this invitation are requested to attend the meeting at the wooden hall without delay!
After completing the incantation, the old Taoist flung his dust whisk toward the east.
With the chanting, the murky yellow qi in the Heavenly Prison Diagram surged and swirled. Where the qi concentrated, shadowy figures seemed to appear.
The next moment, golden light suddenly shot out from the Xuanhuang qi, heading towards the direction indicated by the old Daoist's duster.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Golden light descended from the heavens, illuminating the heads of the Eastern troops. It was faintly visible, with each beam of golden light containing a shadowy figure of a talisman god.
The deity has no spirit or awareness, just like the statues in a temple. Each statue has a different posture and expression.
Even the appearance might not necessarily be human-like. There are mighty gods with three heads and six arms, as well as strange, ferocious demons.
The incantation recited by the old Taoist priest is called the Lingbao Chi Shu Mi Wen Gui Zhou, an art of summoning spirit envoys. It originated from the ancient Beiji Driven Evil Institute and specializes in controlling the spirit envoys of Fengdu City.
“Whoosh!”
The divine symbol descended, instantly transforming into golden light, engulfing the army.
In an instant, all the soldiers in golden armor felt boundless divine power surging within them. They roared with might, their aura swelling explosively!
Empowered by the power of the God of Symbols, their strength has reached unprecedented heights.
"The red script spirit, north to Mount Fengdu."
Sending off the devil sect, eradicating its evil roots.
The teachings of the Tao are clearly stated, and their origins are explicitly detailed.
The Southern Mountain Divine Incantation, its power shakes the eight directions.
"Demons are slain with glee, ten thousand trials meet their doom!"
The old Taoist priest walked in a square pattern, treading on the imaginary "du" (a Chinese term for combat steps), his incantations ceaseless, and with a flick of his duster, he pointed south.
"The Red Classic Jade Script, the True Text of the Nine Heavens."
Invoking the myriad qi of heaven and earth, I dedicate it all to the Heavenly Emperor.
With a flick of his sleeve, he pointed westward.
"Northern Mountain Divine Incantation, Ignite the Yang and Awaken Thunder."
Streams of bells chime, and the heavens tremble with might.
"The Northern Heavenly Capital’s forces, ten thousand demons destroyed."
When the Northern army was also covered in golden armor, almost all the real people's troops were blessed by divine power.
On the battlefield, golden light surged into the sky, and the demon soldiers seemed to transform into genuine divine warriors.
The so-called "divine descending" is not merely a simple infusion of divine power. Demonic soldiers who receive the power of the talisman gods will be involuntarily guided by divine power, even abandoning their instincts, allowing the true masters to command them as easily as their own arms and fingers.
The coordination between soldiers and horses can reach an unprecedented level of harmony. With the help of talismanic spirits, they can unleash powerful magical techniques that surpass their natural capabilities.
"By order of the Northern Emperor, the gates of Hell are opened."
Cut away all evil, let there be nothing present!
The old Taoist glared with fury, his incantations booming like thunder, shaking heaven and earth.
"Roar!"
All troops roared in unison!
