The Demon God System
Breaking through the Saint realm

Currently, there was a gathering of all the sects that existed in the Southern Continent of the Mortal Realm. The Twin Star Sect which was one of the great sects in the Southern Continent was appointed as the host.

If in the previous years a meeting like this was conducted to discuss the competition between sects, this meeting was devoted to discussing the matter of the rise of the power of the demon race.

There were dozens of sects attending the meeting, and all of the sects present were sects that suffered losses with the disappearance of all the slaves from the demon race who had previously been menial workers in their respective sects.

However, the few sects that stood behind King Li Rui, they chose not to attend the meeting because they had no problems with the demon race, either, even the sects that were not present in the meeting were always well-behaved to those from the demon race.

The dozens of sects represented directly by the Patriarchs of each sect, they were currently gathered in the meeting hall belonging to the Twin Star sect.

“Patriarch Li Wu, can't the Patriarch ask King Li Rui to support us and send his soldiers to the stealth forest? With the support of him, I'm sure we can reach the entire layer of that forest!” The patriarch of the Twin Star sect asked Patriarch Li Wu, the Patriarch of the Lightning Mountain sect who was the uncle of King Li Rui.

“Do you think I haven't done that to her? I've repeatedly asked him to give us what we want to do, but many times I ask, he still refuses and insists on having a good relationship with the demon race!” Patriarch Li Wu was visibly annoyed as he spoke while recalling the continued refusal of King Li Rui.

“He's too innocent as a King. How could the superior human race establish a good relationship with the demon race that had long since been destined to become the slaves of the human race. Once our dealings with the demon race are over, we should forcibly lower that person down, and replace him with a new King that is as thoughtful as us!” said Patriarch Chu Heng, the Patriarch of the Green Bamboo sect, who is the second strongest Sect in the Southern Continent.

For the strongest sect in the Southern Continent to still belong to the Five Finger Mountain Sect which was behind the power belonging to King Li Rui.

“It was difficult to do that to him because he was within the protection of the Five Fingers Mountain sect and the other five sects who were extremely loyal to him. However, if you really want to do it we can work with the Kingdom that has been hostile to the Lotus Kingdom.” Patriarch Jian Tu who was the Patriarch of the Twin Star sect spoke again.

All the Patriarchs of the sect agreed with it including Li Wu whose relationship was very tenuous with King Li Rui who was his own nephew. However, all of that will be discussed after they find and exterminate the entire demon race that is thought to be hiding in the depths of the stealth forest.

“Prepare the best strength you have, and in three days we will gather at the border of the stealth forest near the Sky Lotus City!” The decision was set by Patriarch Chu Heng who was made the leader because among the others he was the strongest.

Being at the Perfect level Mortal realm, his strength was on par with King Li Rui, but unbeknownst to them not too long ago the King who was doing closed-door training had successfully broken through to the realm of Nirvana, and again take a step stronger than those who are hostile to him.

The decision was taken and the Patriarchs approved the contents of the decision on the invasion of the stealth forest, which will be carried out within the next three days.

After a short meeting, all the Patriarchs of the sects returned to their respective sects to prepare for the best strength they had.

“Boom... Booms... Boom..”

First lightning, second lightning, third lightning, third lightning, already three mid-tier Heavenly Lightning struck Zhou Tian's body which was currently undergoing the process of being purified by the intermediate-tier Heavenly Lightning once he managed to break through to the Saint realm.

‘The power of the mid-level Heavenly Lightning is terrifying, even the area around me has been destroyed by it, but instead of the pain I get, I actually feel my strength increasing every time a Heavenly Lightning strikes my body!’ Zhou Tian felt that his strength was increasing, and it was possible that he would be able to regain a breakthrough once he finished the purification process.

“Booomm..”

The fourth lightning struck his body, and he felt the power of the lightning this time was stronger than before. “Only with one strike has created damage equivalent to three previous lightning strikes?”

“This is amazing!” Instead of being afraid of the power of the Heavenly Lightning striking him, Zhou Tian smiled happily instead.

Although it was only a Saint realm intermediate level, with the specialty of the body and the blood of a Demon God flowing in his body, Zhou Tian was confident that he could defeat a Peak-level Saint realm cultivator, instead, and offset the power of a Perfect level Saint realm cultivator. “With me getting stronger, those in the core layer of the stealth forest will no longer feel scary to me!” Zhou Tian muttered softly and he prepared to receive the rest of the lightning that was still rumbling in the lightning clouds.

As Zhou Tian was undergoing the process of being purified by the mid-level Heavenly Lightning, in the Lotus Kingdom palace, King Li Rui was hearing the reports of spies he placed in the Twin Star sect. He deliberately put a spy to know the outcome of the meeting at that place.

“Three more days they will attack the demon forest area, and kill all the demons that are in that place. Finished from that place, they have mature plans to lower me from the position of King, even my own uncle supports their decision.”

The first reaction of King Li Rui after hearing the reports of his spies, he slowly shook his head while sighing deeply. “My own uncle is even hostile to me, from there it is seen that they have all been blinded by power, and take too little for granted the strength of the demon race!”

King Li Rui was not at all worried about his status as King, which at times he could lose. “I will not hesitate to give up my position to others, after all it is not easy for me to become a king, which everyone always rejects my decision.” King Li Rui muttered softly.

...----------------...

Deep within the middle layer of the stealth forest.

The seventh and eighth Heavenly Lightning had just struck Zhou Tian's body. With his body strength and blood strength, Zhou Tian was pleased with the harvest of spiritual energy he had obtained.

“Live one lightning bolt left and it looks like this is enough to make me break through to the next level!”

Raising his head looking towards the lightning clouds above him, Zhou Tian saw the lightning dragons in the clouds staring sinisterly at his existence.

“I think the remaining lightning has a strength ten times stronger than the previous lightning!”

Zhou Tian refocused his absorption as the dozens of meters long lightning dragon moved swiftly towards him. The aura of the lightning dragon was extremely powerful and oppressive. However, for Zhou Tian the aura of the lightning dragon was very good for him as he could absorb all of it to increase his strength.

Before the lightning dragon struck his body, Zhou Tian spread out his hands welcoming the arrival of the lightning dragon. “Come here and be a source of increased strength for!” As if hearing his words, the lightning dragon just directly struck his body, making the most destruction compared to the other lightning that had struck his body.

“BOOOMM...”

A kilometer away from where Zhou Tian had instantly become a vast field, a vast land, the tremors and thunderous sounds could be heard and felt by anyone 50 kilometers away from the center of the purification process by the Heavenly Lightning.

“Hah..”.

Exhaling a smoky breath, Zhou Tian had not been able to calm down after going through the purification process by the mid-tier Heavenly Lightning. Now he must prepare for a breakthrough.

“I will continue to get stronger and stronger to bring the demon race to its glory era!” Zhou Tian had the determination and spirit to become stronger and stronger. All of that had to be done since he once again wanted to bring the demon race to its glory era.
