It was already late at night, but the library, which was filled with countless precious ancient manuscripts, was still brightly lit. It was a busy and tense scene. The mentors rummaged through cabinets and cabinets, looking for the oldest books, and then quickly flipping through and recording them.
To become a mentor, one not only needed powerful combat strength, but also a rich reserve of knowledge, as well as a deep understanding of the demon race. Thus, all the mentors, without exception, were white-haired old men.
In addition to City Lord Lv Tailai, another City Lord, Calvinson, was also present. Just like the demon race had thirteen Demon Kings, the human-occupied Hidden Demon City also had as many as thirteen City Lords. Calvinson was famous for his research on history, and he had a deep understanding of the demon race's bloodline inheritance over countless eras.
In the blink of an eye, the sky turned white. After one night, the mentors placed all kinds of ancient books back on the bookshelves in the deepest underground part of the library and left, exhausted.
"Why are we looking up the Book of Kings? That's the legend of the ancient demon king, an existence that's almost mythical. "
"Who knows? We'll just do whatever the City Lord commands. But looking at the expressions of the two City Lords, it seems to be very serious."
"I hope it's not the start of another war. We're not ready for that yet."
The mentors walked on the cool street in the early morning, discussing their work from last night. They didn't expect that they, who had been summoned to the library, would actually have to look up the Book of Kings, and then organize the legends of the ancient demon kings in the Book of Kings into a book.
The reason why legends were legends was that they couldn't be verified. The Book of Kings recorded all the demon kings that existed in the lower realm before the King of Demon Kings, Harry Cain. According to history, in the demon race's civil war, Harry Cain killed all the ancient demon kings, achieving his own glorious achievements. It seemed meaningless to look up information on the demon kings that no longer existed.
After the crowd dispersed, only the two City Lords and Tu Lan were left in the library. In the huge and spacious room, their voices came from the back of two bookshelves that were three stories high.
"It should be him, the ancient demon king Ji Feng, the king of unyielding and speed. When Harry Cain rose, he was the first demon king to stand up and fight until the end."
"According to the Book of Kings, we can speculate that Tian Yi doesn't have the bloodline of the 13 Demon Kings. Rather, he has inherited the King of Unyielding and Speed. In other words, the blood that flows through his veins is that of an ancient demon," Calvinson said.
Turan shrugged. "No wonder Xia Fan couldn't light up the statues of the Thirteen Demon Kings. It turns out that he and his family have nothing to do with the Thirteen Demon Kings. They have inherited an even more ancient bloodline."
Lü Tailai said, "The problem now is that we don't have the slightest understanding of the Ancient Demon King Ji Feng. If their demonic nature suddenly erupts, we might be helpless and unable to find a way to restrain them. I'm afraid it might be a little dangerous."
Lv Tailai's words caused the three of them to sink into deep thought. The plan to invite Tian Yi from the Middle Realm to the Lower Realm to help fight against the Demon King, Halicairn, now seemed more like inviting a group of monsters that no one understood. Tian Yi had ancient demon blood flowing in his body, so it was impossible to predict what the final outcome would be, and whether or not Tian Yi would demonize.
Calvinson suddenly laughed. "Let's observe first. Although we don't understand Tian Yi's bloodline, so far, the plan has been very successful. Tian Yi has unparalleled destructive power against the demon race. He's practically the enemy's natural nemesis."
Lv Tailai said, "That's natural. Tian Yi's bloodline originates from Ji Feng. Not only was Ji Feng the first to jump out to oppose Halicairn, but he was also the one who fought to the end. Halicairn had to use countless schemes to kill everyone around Ji Feng before he dared to make a move against him.
"According to the records, in order to kill Ji Feng, Halicairn and his twelve brothers were all mobilized. They fought for millions of rounds before Ji Feng was sent into the Primal Chaos. From this, it seems that the combat power of the Ancient Demon King Ji Feng shouldn't be any weaker than Halicairn."
At this point, Turan continued, "With such a fierce resistance, Ji Feng's bloodline and the bloodline of the Thirteen Demon Kings have a deep-rooted conflict. Even if we don't do anything, Tian Yi will still treat the Thirteen Demon Kings as his mortal enemies."
"No wonder the plan to invite the Heaven's Wings to the Lower Realms went so smoothly. They didn't need to think at all. They just smelled it and came. And in the Lower Realms, the Heaven's Wings felt like home, because their ancestors once fought here and died here."
Calvinson nodded. "That's reasonable. I suggest that we seal off the information. Only the three of us know the secret of Tian Yi's bloodline."
Lv Tailai frowned. "But how do we guard against the risk? Tian Yi's bloodline purity is as high as 49.99%. This means that there is a risk of them becoming demonized. We used many warriors with the demon race's bloodline because we are confident that we can control them and prevent them from becoming demonized. "
"And Tian Yi's bloodline is the king of indomitable and speed. Once they become demonized, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Calvinson waved his hand. "Don't always think about the worst. In this world, everything has risks. The enemy of our enemy is our friend. First observe, then decide. This is the best choice for us right now. After all, we can't give up a main force to fight against the Thirteen Demon Kings. If we lose Tian Yi's fighting strength, it will be too late for us to regret it."
Turan smiled bitterly. "I agree. Tian Yi is now an important force for us. We can't easily deny them. Besides, it's easy to invite them in, but hard to send them away. Even if we want to send Tian Yi back to the middle realms, I'm afraid it's impossible, right?"
Uh …
The three of them were speechless. This was true. Unless Tian Yi wanted to leave, who could stop them …
.....
"You can think of Hidden Demon City as a city-style college. Trainee Demon Slayers learn here, grow, and finally become real Demon Slayer Warriors. Then they take the elevator to the next level and carry out various combat missions.
"And we, the mentors, are the warriors who guard Hidden Demon City. While protecting the city and the elevator, we also take time to teach our disciples." On the first lesson the next day, Turan introduced the situation of Hidden Demon City to Xia Fan and the others.
Jiang Zhibei raised his hand and asked, "Teacher, what about the next level? What's going on down there? "
Turan nodded slightly. "Below the elevator is the second continent. The situation is similar to ours, but half of the territory belongs to the demons and the other half to us. There are sporadic battles, but no large-scale ones. You can say that both sides have their own victories and losses."
Du Yu, who was wearing glasses, asked, "Teacher, I heard that there is a third level in the lower realms?"
"The third level …" Turan touched his chin and said, "The third level is the pure territory of the demons, a world of darkness and blood. Breaking into the third level, completely wiping out the demons, and restoring peace to the lower realms is our lifelong goal. Keep it up. Maybe the hope of breaking into the third level lies with you."
"Today, I will give you your first lesson to help you awaken stronger power. Next, I will play the Demonic Sound, and you will resonate with it. Ninety-nine percent of people will have hallucinations after hearing the Demonic Sound, but don't panic. When the Demonic Sound stops, the hallucinations will naturally disappear."
"Now, you have to relax and close your eyes."
There were only five people in the two-hundred-square-meter room, which seemed a little empty. After Turan finished, everyone closed their eyes and lay down on the soft and comfortable sofa. Du Yu even covered himself with a blanket.
Then, Turan took out a Music Crystal, put it on the table in the middle of the room, walked out of the room, and closed the door.
Standing outside the door, Turan looked around. When he saw that everyone had closed their eyes and relaxed, he stretched out his right hand and gently snapped his fingers.
