I Became Invincible By Offering Up Sacrifices To My Sect's Grandmaster

In the two years that Zhou Dao had been in the Demon Control Department, as a low-profile Demon Sealing Master, he hadn't actually taken action many times.

Half a year ago, during the Mastiff Demon incident, was one of those times.

At that time, Zhou Dao's cultivation was at the Refining Realm Sixth Transformation, and he had learned three [Inner Divine Weapon Technique].

When several Demon-slaying Guards were attacked, it was originally thought to be just an ordinary demon beast, but who would have expected three High-Level Evil Class monsters to suddenly appear.

Zhou Dao took action, like an angry thunder, and of the three High-Level Evil Class monsters, two were killed and one escaped.

Of all the Demon-slaying Guards, only Lin Liuli survived.

At that time, in Old Yuan's house, Zhou Dao had not sensed it yet.

However, in the past two days, he had greatly improved his strength through offerings. Not only had he trained to the second level of the ''Sage's Great Handprint'', but he had also reached the realm of [Eighteen Thunders], making his divine soul stronger and allowing him to detect that familiar scent.

Yuan Shaobai had the smell of the escaped Mastiff Demon on him.

Thinking of this, Zhou Dao's eyes slightly darkened.

There were indeed many humans who colluded with demon beasts, reversing yin and yang, cultivating forbidden techniques, and creating chaos in the world.

"That thing has some origin." Zhou Dao hesitated for a moment.

Most demon beasts in the world were born from coincidence and grew in spirit over time.

Such demon beasts only caused chaos by relying on their demonic energy and evil spirits. If they had good luck, they could break through to High-Level Evil Class, but that was about it.

However, there was another kind who had obtained the inheritance of the demon clan, comprehended the principles of creation, practiced techniques, and, like human cultivators, stepped onto the path of Mysterious Cultivation. Their strength and means were much stronger than ordinary demon beasts.

These demon beasts had a master and carried cultivation.

"I don't know which demon cave it came from!" Zhou Dao speculated.

Human cultivators occupied spiritual mountains, established sects and passed on Taoism.

There were also strong demon beasts who carved out their own mountain homes, ruled over other demons in various domains, and passed on their techniques.

In this vast world, there were a total of seventy-two Demon Kings who were the strongest, known as the leaders of the group of demons.

Demon beasts who came from the seventy-two demon houses were the most troublesome and feared by the Demon Control Department.

That Mastiff Demon was able to escape from Zhou Dao's hands on that day, and, after half a year, it was still able to hide its existence from Zhou Dao, who had already stepped into the Refining Realm Seventh Transformation.

This Mastiff Demon might very likely come from a demon house.

Regarding the seventy-two demon houses, even the ''Demon Control Department Work Manual'' did not have detailed records.

However, Zhou Dao knew a lot about it, even more than ordinary Demon-slaying Guards.

This was all thanks to his cheap master.

Since he was young, Zhou Dao had been making his way with his master, who was down on his luck. Although he didn't learn any serious skills, he did hear a lot of strange and mysterious stories.

When he was seven years old, there was a heavy rainstorm with thunder and lightning.

Zhou Dao went out to buy liquor and returned home in the rain.

The run-down Taoist temple had its door half-open, and a middle-aged man walked out from inside.

The man was dressed in a silver robe with dazzling scale-like patterns on it. He wore a rain hat, hiding his face. As he came out, he ran into Zhou Dao face to face.

At the time, Zhou Dao was curious as to why such a distinguished man would visit their broken-down Taoist temple.

The middle-aged man kept his head down, and his gaze seemed to linger on Zhou Dao for a moment before he stepped out into the rain.

Seven-year-old Zhou Dao watched the figure of the man walking away, feeling perplexed.

Because he saw that the falling raindrops seemed to have grown eyes and miraculously avoided the middle-aged man's body.

However, because the rain was so heavy, Zhou Dao didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that it was just his eyes playing tricks on him.

He entered the Taoist temple, where the old Taoist was holding a wine jug. The smell of the wine from yesterday had not yet dissipated. Seeing the wine in Zhou Dao's hand, he beckoned for it, wanting to drink more.

At that time, Zhou Dao asked him who the man was.

The old Taoist said that the man was one of the seventy-two Demon Masters, the Demon Lord who captured dragons and intimidated tigers, commanded ten thousand demons, and came to drink with him today out of boredom, while also offering to polish his shoes.

However, the old Taoist said he didn't think much of him, so he sent him away.

Zhou Dao knew that the old Taoist was drunk, but he took advantage of his intoxication to ask him about the seventy-two demon houses.

Although the old Daoist wasn't reliable as a person, his stories were always incredibly fascinating.

On ordinary days, Zhou Dao enjoyed listening to his nonsense.

However, the old Daoist would only share these bizarre stories when he was drunk.

"Stupid dog!" Zhou Dao sighed inwardly, withdrew his thoughts, and focused on his work.

...

In the evening, the full moon hung high, shining brightly like a plate.

Peace Town fell into a deep slumber.

In front of the Demon Control Department, two lanterns illuminated the entrance, and the streets were empty.

Inside, the two Demon-slaying Guards on duty were already sleepy, their eyes somewhat blurred.

At this moment, with a "creak" sound, the door opened.

The two immediately became alert and looked over fiercely.

"It's Captain Yuan!" Recognizing the visitor, the two guards breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

These days, a series of accidents kept everyone on edge.

Hmm…

Yuan Shaobai looked indifferent at the two guards, raising his hand, blood energy surged like a torrent.

Before the two could react, they were crushed unconscious by the terrifying force.

The cultivation of Wandering Divine Control was no match for the Thought Soldier Transformation experts.

Hmm…

At this moment, black gas invaded, pouring in from outside the door.

A huge mastiff dog emerged from the blackness, stepping foot onto the Demon Control Department`s ground.

"Fresh food!" The black mastiff licked its lips, sniffing the two Demon-slaying Guards.

Greed shone in its crimson eyes.

"Let's finish the task first!" Yuan Shaobai said sternly.

"I'll enjoy it later..." The black mastiff glanced at Yuan Shaobai and sneered, "Today, I'll let you know what I'm capable of."

Rumbling…

As his words fell, a chilling demonic energy surged out of the black mastiff.

At the same time, it chanted incantations as if reciting a spell.

The demonic energy boiled fiercely like black fog, and in the distance, runes seemed to flash mysteriously.

"It has transformed!?" Yuan Shaobai furrowed his eyebrows.

The demonic energy before him now became extraordinary, resembling a giant mastiff. The surrounding temperature dropped suddenly.

Outside the door, the Yin wind roared, and black clouds gathered, gradually covering the bright moon.

Yuan Shaobai's face changed drastically as he could faintly hear wails coming from all directions.

"What kind of technique is this?" Yuan Shaobai was shocked and confused.

In just a moment, the black mastiff's aura had grown several times stronger, its demonic energy around its body thickening to an almost tangible level, sending chills down his spine.

"Heavenly Dog Devouring the Moon, Ten Thousand Evils Enter the Body!" The black mastiff bared its tusks, revealing a ferocious grin.

Heavenly Dog Devouring the Moon was a secret technique passed down only within their lineage, using the most Yin and evil substances to temper their own demonic energy, activating the secret method to block the moon, and obtaining the power of Taiyin from within.

At that time, its demonic power would increase exponentially. If it could swallow and integrate all the sealed demon corpses in the Demon Control Department into its demonic energy...

It could immediately breakthrough to Slaughter Level.

By then, even an expert of Chattering Thunder's level would be nothing more than an ant in its presence.

"Cultivating in Wave Moon Cave, Heavenly Dog Devouring the Moon to refine its true form, so you are the little demon of Wave Moon Cave!"

At this moment, an indifferent voice slowly echoed through the quiet Demon Control Department.
