The old ape had not gone far and noticed that as well. He paused in his tracks and raised his head with a grim expression.
At that moment, night had long passed and the firmaments were bright.
However, numerous ancient and boundless stars had appeared in the distant sky, and they flickered between brightness and dimness. The constellations were chaotic, and there was no trace of them to be found!
"Grandpa, what's going on?"
Yuan Ling 'er had only cultivated for a short period of time and had not seen such a strange sight before – she could not help but ask.
"I've never seen a universal phenomenon as such before as well,"
The old ape shook his head and said slowly, "I'm guessing that something major must have happened beneath the firmaments! In fact, it might even cause the stars to appear in daytime and the constellations to be chaotic! "
"What could it be?"
Yuan Ling 'er asked.
"It's hard to say,"
The old ape replied, "It might be the birth of some treasure or a secret skill. Or perhaps, a Grand Demon's attainment of the Dao startled the world … in fact, the birth or death of some peerless experts might even cause universal phenomenons!"
"I heard that an emperor of Fahua Monastery died in the catastrophe of the North Region 10,000 years ago. Back then, a universal phenomenon was triggered!"
Heaven and earth mourned the death of an emperor!
The old ape lamented, "It's said that many Buddhas appeared that day and flowers fell from the skies. Golden lotuses sprouted from the ground and Sanskrit reverberated through the world for a long time."
Yuan Ling 'er was shocked.
The old ape lamented, "I have no regrets in my life after cultivating to this realm where I'm respected by all races!"
A moment later, the old ape stared at the stars in the firmaments for a while more and frowned. "Judging from the position of the firmaments, it seems to be close to the Thousand Year Blood Sea. Could the two of them be related?"
…
Seven days later.
Ape Chatter Ridge. There were about a thousand mid-level fiend demons gathered and all of them were mid-level fiend demons!
Su Zimo and the others were among them as well.
Although most of them were low-level fiend demons and did not fit in with their surroundings, the demons did not underestimate them at all.
The memories of the battle seven days ago were still fresh in the demons' minds.
They looked at the scarlet-haired man at the front with a hint of wariness in their eyes.
Before long, the old ape appeared with Yuan Ling 'er.
"Let's go!"
The old ape did not waste time and his glabella shone, releasing a massive spirit consciousness. Waving his sleeves, a gigantic black cloud appeared before him!
Dark clouds spread.
In the blink of an eye, the black cloud enveloped all the demons!
"Relax your minds, there's no need to resist."
The old ape's voice sounded.
Immediately after, the demons felt their bodies lighten and soared into the air. In the blink of an eye, they had already left Ape Chatter Ridge and sped towards the distant horizon!
The wind howled in their ears. At this speed, the demons would arrive at their destination in less than two to three days!
Su Zimo nodded secretly.
The methods of an overlord were indeed powerful.
A black cloud carrying over a thousand fiendish demons and maintaining such a terrifying speed. How much magic power did it require?
As Su Zimo was pondering, the old ape's voice echoed in his mind.
It was the old ape speaking to him through Divine Sense.
"Mo, I believe you are participating in the Thousand Demon Meet this time around to fight for a spot in the Thousand Year Blood Sea, right?"
Su Zimo replied with a voice transmission, "Of course."
The seven Overlords were gathered at the Thousand Demon Meet and he had many cultivation methods that were inconvenient for him to use.
However, he believed that given his current strength, he could take on most mid-level fiendish demons even without using his black-haired Essence Spirit!
At the very least, Su Zimo was confident that he could suppress everything in melee combat with his physique!
"That's probably going to be difficult,"
The old ape said, "I've witnessed your methods before. You have a strong physique and are even more frightening in melee combat."
In a few words, the old ape pointed out Su Zimo's strengths.
Immediately after, the old ape changed the topic. "However, there are only ten spots in the Thousand Year Blood Sea. You'll have to pass two trials if you want to fight for one of them. You won't be able to pass the first trial. "
"Oh?"
Su Zimo asked, "What's the first trial?"
"Simply put, the first trial tests the strength of your Essence Spirit,"
The old ape explained, "The opportunity to cultivate in the Blood Sea is rare and occurs once every thousand years. Furthermore, there are only ten spots each time. Therefore, we will select the strongest mid-level fiendish demons to enter and cultivate."
"That's the only way we can groom a high-level fiendish demon!"
When he heard that, Su Zimo frowned slightly and asked, "How do we compare the strength of our Essence Spirits? It can't be a fight between Essence Spirits, right?"
A fight between Essence Spirits was the most dangerous.
Any bit of carelessness could lead to death!
If one's Essence Spirit was damaged in the process of fighting for a spot, the losses would outweigh the gains and no fiendish demon would dare to attempt it easily.
"There's no need for that,"
The old ape shook his head. "The comparison of the strength of one's Essence Spirit is simple – the range of one's spirit consciousness."
When he heard that, Su Zimo was slightly stunned.
"The range of a low-level fiendish demon's spirit consciousness starts at five kilometers and the limit is 50 kilometers. However, the range of a mid-level fiendish demon's spirit consciousness starts at 50 kilometers and can reach 500 kilometers at the limit! "
The old ape said, "You're a low-level fiendish demon and haven't cultivated to the peak. Even if you're a peak low-level fiendish demon, your spirit consciousness won't exceed 50 kilometers. "
"However, you must know that the Territorial Lords fighting for the spots to cultivate in the Blood Sea are all mid-level fiendish demons! You won't be able to win against them for this alone, "
Su Zimo smiled and replied indifferently, "That might not be the case."
"Hmm?"
The old ape exclaimed softly – he could tell what Su Zimo was implying.
After a moment of silence, he did not continue asking and merely lamented, "It's truly an anomaly for a low-level fiendish demon to be a Territorial Lord!"
Three days later.
Although Su Zimo passed through the thick black clouds, he could still sense a faint stench of blood.
Furthermore, the speed of the black clouds was gradually slowing down as well!
He realized that they had arrived at the Thousand Year Blood Sea!
Before long, the demons sensed the black clouds fading gradually and descended. They regained their vision and gazed around.
Beneath them was a vast plain that stretched as far as the eye could see.
Many fiendish demons were gathered on the plain and most of them were in human form. However, all of them had rumbling demonic qi and a torrential malevolent aura!
The crowd below was bustling and it was extremely lively.
The most eye-catching thing was the central region of the plain – it was incomparably scarlet!
The Thousand Year Blood Sea!
The Blood Sea was not a sea, but a lake.
However, the lake was way too large and it was difficult to see from the ground. The demons had to look down from midair to be able to see the entirety of the Blood Sea.
Su Zimo merely took a single glance at the Blood Sea and his expression changed all of a sudden!
Right at that moment, ripples appeared on the Blood Sea. The ripples seemed to have transformed into a human face within the Blood Sea!
It was a blood-colored human face!
Furthermore, the blood-colored human face seemed to be smiling in a sinister, sinister and frightening manner!
Psst!
Su Zimo gasped and shuddered.
He focused his gaze once more and the ripples on the Blood Sea had already disappeared. The surface of the sea was calm and the blood-colored human face was gone.
Su Zimo's face was slightly pale as he stared at the Blood Sea for a long time.
The blood-colored human face did not appear either.
It was as though Just Now was merely a figment of his imagination.
Su Zimo shook his head and let out a long breath before descending with the demons.
