After the sacrifice, Demon Commander Wu Shan led Ji Tianxing and the others away from the altar.
They passed through the wasteland where the Demon soldiers were gathered and hurried back to the entrance they had come from.
However, at the entrance, two Demon Race elites were rushing over.
Seeing Demon Commander Wu Shan, the two elites hurriedly came forward and bowed respectfully. "Lord Demon Commander, His Majesty the Demon King has summoned you to discuss important military matters."
A strange look flashed across Ji Tianxing's eyes when he heard this news. He thought to himself, The Demon King has indeed come to Heaven Dragon Pass. Our speculation was correct!
Demon Commander Wu Shan looked at the two Demon elites who had delivered the message and nodded. "Benshuai will meet His Majesty the Demon King in a moment."
After the two demon elites conveyed the order, they turned around and left, their figures disappearing into the dark passage.
Demon Commander Wu Shan turned to look at Ji Tianxing and the others. Pointing at four Demon Kings, he ordered, "You may leave now. Hurry back to your stations and strengthen the defenses and patrols."
The four Demon Kings cupped their hands in acknowledgement and quickly left.
Only Ji Tianxing and another Demon King were left by Demon Commander Wu Shan's side.
"Let's go."
Demon Commander Wu Shan ordered in a low voice. He led Ji Tianxing and the other Demon King into the dark tunnel and hurried toward a Demon Cave as fast as the wind.
The three traversed through the crisscrossing tunnels. After a hundred breaths' time, they entered a huge underground city.
This underground city had a radius of dozens of miles. It was the core area of the Demon camp.
Dozens of black palaces had been built in the dark underground city. Many huge caves had been excavated.
Demon Commander Wu Shan led Ji Tianxing and the other Demon King to a solemn black palace that occupied an area of thousands of feet. They stopped outside.
Thirty-six Sky Origin Realm experts stood outside the wide palace gates. They were divided into two groups and guarded the two sides of the gate.
A huge oval mark was carved into the black wall directly above the gate.
The mark was mysterious and complicated. It was engraved with Demon words and symbols, as well as images of ghosts and monsters and Asuras.
Ji Tianxing had been to the Demon Sacred Mountain and seen the Heavenly Devil Palace from afar.
He knew that the Heavenly Devil Palace's main gate had a similar mark.
That meant that the Devil Emperor had arrived in person, and was incomparably honorable.
Demon Commander Wu Shan showed his identity token to the guards. After receiving permission, he led Ji Tianxing and Li Wuyou through the palace gates and into the dark palace.
The corridors, passages, and walls of the palace were inlaid with gemstone lamps, emitting a dark red brilliance.
The entire palace was enveloped in blood-red light. It was filled with a dense demonic aura and an ice-cold aura of death.
Anyone who entered this palace would feel uneasy and would lower their head in awe and fear.
Demon Marshal Wu Shan passed through several corridors and passageways before arriving at the door of a secret room.
The fifty feet tall black stone door was tightly shut. Two vivid and lifelike images of demons were carved on the door, as if they were about to break out of the wall and devour people.
"You two wait here. Don't act rashly!"
Demon Commander Wu Shan looked at Ji Tianxing and Mo Wuji and gave the order with a stern expression.
With that, he pressed his palms against the demon images on the stone door and activated the array on the stone door.
After his identity was verified by the array, the stone door slowly opened a crack.
Swoosh!
Demon Commander Wu Shan turned into a black fog and passed through the crack in the stone door, entering the dark secret room.
Ji Tianxing and the other Demon King stood quietly on both sides of the stone door, not daring to make any noise.
Ji Tianxing could not see what was going on in the secret room.
But he knew very well that the Ancient Fiend Emperor was in the secret room, discussing important military matters with Demon Commander Wu Shan.
He could sense that the Fiend Emperor's powerful and cold aura was very low-key and reserved. It would only ripple every once in a while.
"The Fiend Emperor is indeed here. Otherwise, he would not have built the altar here to rebuild the Ancestor Fiendgod's divine body.
However, the Fiend Emperor must have used some kind of Dharma treasure to conceal his aura.
It's no wonder why the God Monarchs, God Monarchs, and the others were unable to find him despite using all kinds of secret arts … "
On the surface, Ji Tianxing's expression did not change, but his mind was filled with all sorts of thoughts.
"Although I have completed the mission that the Emperor gave me and investigated the sacrificial ceremony, I managed to sneak into the Fiend Emperor's camp.
But it wasn't easy for me to sneak into the demon camp. If I were to leave just like that, it would be a pity.
No, I have to think of a way to get more information. "
He made up his mind to find a way to get more information, and racked his brains to think of a way.
However, the Fiend Emperor was in the secret room, and he could not act rashly. Otherwise, he would be in danger of exposing his identity.
Given the Fiend Emperor's powerful abilities, he would definitely be able to see through his disguise once he met him or came into close contact with him.
After pondering for a while, an idea suddenly flashed through his mind, and he suddenly had an idea.
"That's right! When I was cultivating in seclusion in the Imperial Palace, the Palace Lord gave me a batch of cultivation resources.
Those were the resources that the Palace Lord had accumulated over thousands of years. Apart from large amounts of spirit stones and pills, there were also more than twenty rare treasures and talismans.
I vaguely remember that there was a Truth Listener Talisman among those talismans. It had a very miraculous effect.
That talisman was divided into a pair of mother and child talismans. It could monitor movements thousands of miles away. It was very well hidden and would not be discovered … "
Recalling this matter, Ji Tianxing had an idea.
He glanced at the Fiend King by the stone door and saw that the Fiend King was standing motionlessly with his head lowered in a daze.
It was obvious that the Fiend King was filled with fear and reverence for the Fiend Emperor. He did not dare look around or make a sound.
Thus, Ji Tianxing silently took out a Truth Listener Talisman and stuck it on the dark brown wall of the secret room.
This dark gold talisman was as long as a chopstick and as wide as a palm. It was made of a special material and was engraved with mysterious and strange patterns and symbols.
When the talisman touched the wall of the secret room, it quietly burrowed into the wall and quickly dissolved.
In the blink of an eye, the Truth Listener Talisman had disappeared.
The talisman released an invisible force that slowly spread through the walls of the secret room. It did not cause any disturbances. It was simply undetectable.
After placing the talisman, Ji Tianxing saw that there were no abnormalities in the surroundings and heaved a sigh of relief.
He maintained a silent and respectful posture and stood outside the secret room, waiting patiently.
After about a hundred breaths, the secret room's stone door slowly opened and Demon Commander Wu Shan walked out.
"Let's go!"
Demon Commander Wu Shan ordered expressionlessly. He quickly led Ji Tianxing and the Fiend King out of the palace.
The three of them traversed the complicated underground tunnels for a while before stopping at a fork in the road.
Demon Commander Wu Shan had to carry out the Fiend Emperor's orders. He turned and left, disappearing into the darkness.
Ji Tianxing did not waste any time. He quickly returned to the surface and hurried to the edge of the Demon camp.
