While the battle on the Zhenwu Continent was in full swing, Shen Lang and the other two were leisurely making their way to the Zhenwu Continent through the spatial passageway between the Elysium Continent and the Zhenwu Continent.
Shen Lang was still unaware of the Yao Clan's emergence. He was still surprised by the secret he had learned from Celestial Dipper Immortal King.
He did not expect the Emperor Of Heaven to have so many secrets. For example, the Emperor Of Heaven had once liked a woman. Although they did not end up together, it was the pain of the Emperor Of Heaven's life. The Emperor Of Heaven had also experienced many things along the way.
However, what caught Shen Lang's attention the most was that in order to open the Nine Dragon Seal, one must obtain the Emperor Of Heaven's approval. Only then could one obtain the inheritance within the Nine Dragon Seal.
As for how to gain the Sky Emperor's approval, that would depend on one's fate. There was a strand of the Sky Emperor's primordial spirit in the Nine-dragon Seal. However, too much time had passed and that strand of primordial spirit had been damaged beyond repair. It didn't even have a basic consciousness. One could only hope that the Sky Emperor's primordial spirit would recover a little bit one day.
However, it was said that there was a shortcut to the Nine Dragon Seal, which was to nourish it with the Origin Energy. It would help the strand of soul of the Emperor Of Heaven recover.
Since there was a way, Shen Lang was no longer in a hurry. The Origin Energy was no longer a problem for Shen Lang. With his current strength, he could easily obtain the Origin Energy of the Heavenly Demon World and the Origin Energy of the Myriad Minor Worlds. Nourishing the Emperor Of Heaven's soul was a simple matter.
However, Shen Lang would not act rashly. He was afraid that the Emperor Of Heaven would leave behind a backup plan. If that happened, he would be at a disadvantage.
During this trip to the Elysium Continent, Shen Lang had benefited greatly. Taihuang had broken through to the half-step Progenitor realm and he was not far from it. As long as he was given time, he would be able to break through to the half-step Progenitor realm by relying on the experience left behind by Su Meng.

* Bang! *
Tensei Shinryū and Huangfu Ji spat out a mouthful of blood and fell from the sky.
However, the Demon Lord was not having a good time either. Tensei Shinryū and Huangfu Ji fought back with all their might and was severely injured.
The Xuantianxie Emperor and the others hurriedly rushed forward and rescued Tensei Shinryū and Huangfu Ji. The people of the Demon Race also protected the Demon Lord and retreated.
In this battle, Tensei Shinryū and Huangfu Ji were both heavily injured. Although the Demon Lord was slightly lighter than the two, he was unable to continue attacking the humans.
Following the conclusion of the incident, both sides retreated and regrouped, preparing for the next outbreak of war.
Everyone knew that once the Demon Lord regained his strength, they would be faced with a great crisis.
...
Eastern Region, Hades, Nine Serenities.
Because Huangfu Ji and Tensei Shinryū were in seclusion with serious injuries, everything in Hades was under the control of the Ghost Emperors of the Five Directions.
The Xuantianxie Emperor and Fo Ye both sat on chairs in Nine Serenities Hall, frowning and deep in thought.
They did not know when Shen Lang would return, so they had to prepare for the worst. The next time the Demon Race attacked, all of them might die. Therefore, everyone was nervously cultivating. Although they might not be able to make a breakthrough in their strength, they could only do their best.
When they heard that the Demon Race had appeared in the Zhenwu Continent, the Shen Family and other major forces of the Wushen Continent sent reinforcements to the Zhenwu Continent. They were all humans, so they could not sit back and do nothing. Moreover, they had a relationship with Shen Lang.
The preparation before the battle was the most tense time. Everyone kept their mouths shut and quietly prepared.
At this time, the remaining twenty-one major forces invited their Patriarchs to fight the Demon Race together with the people of Hades.
Even the Tenryū Temple, which had sealed off the mountain, sent experts to support them.
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed. At this time, waves rose in the Endless Sea again. Countless Demon Beasts covered the sky and the earth as they gathered at the seaside of the Endless Sea. The people of the Zhenwu Continent could smell a storm coming.
The humans reacted quickly. Just as the Demon Race made a move, the humans had already reacted and gathered in the direction of the Endless Sea, not allowing the Demon Race to step into the Zhenwu Continent.
...
Although the humans and the Demon Race had not officially declared war, there were constant battles. Many human martial artists in the Void-breaking Realm died in the hands of the Demon Race. Of course, the Demon Race also suffered some losses. Two Demon Emperors were killed by human martial artists in the Void-breaking Realm.
However, although the war was on the verge of breaking out, the Demon Lord still did not appear.
Everyone guessed that the Demon Lord was either recuperating from his injuries or was still recovering his strength.
The people of the Hades all went to the front line. Only the Ghost Emperor and two members of the King of Hell's Gang, Tensei Shinryū, and Huangfu Ji were left behind to guard the Nine Nether Region.
Tensei Shinryū and Huangfu Ji were the main forces. Only the two of them could barely resist the Demon Lord. If something happened to Tensei Shinryū and Huangfu Ji, then this war between the humans and the Demon Race would probably be lost.
However, at this time, the humans would not come looking for trouble with Tensei Shinryū and Huangfu Ji. After all, this was a special period. Unless those people did not want to live anymore and caused internal strife when the Demon Race's army was pressing on the border, the people of the Hades did not need to do anything. The people of the other forces would take care of it.
...
In the Graveyard of the Gods, three figures appeared out of thin air.
The one in front was a young man in a white robe with a devilish face. He took a deep breath and said slowly, "It's been a long time."
Yan Ruyu covered her mouth and laughed. Taihuang's expression did not change as he stood there quietly.
"Let's go. We've been gone for so long. I wonder if the people of the Zhenwu Continent have come looking for trouble." Shen Lang waved his hand and took the lead to walk towards the spatial passageway to the Zhenwu Continent.
Yan Ruyu followed Shen Lang as they flew and replied, "Husband, I don't think anyone is that stupid. You've only left temporarily. It's not like you're never coming back. Even if they have a thousand ideas, they won't dare to act rashly."
The corner of Shen Lang's mouth curled up. He had just said it casually. Everyone was shocked by the destruction of the Qianwu Empire. No one wanted to follow in the footsteps of the Qianwu Empire. After all, Shen Lang's reputation was built on killing. All his enemies, including the forces behind them, were not spared. Therefore, before they were completely confident, no one would dare to come looking for trouble.
Just as Shen Lang and the other two were flying towards the spatial passageway, the system's voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
"Ding! Mission received: Expel the Demon Clan and kill the Demon Lord. Received one chance to summon."
"Eh!"
Shen Lang could not help but exclaim in surprise. He did not expect that the Demon Clan would come into being while he was gone.
"Husband, what's wrong?"
Yan Ruyu also heard Shen Lang's exclamation and looked at him in confusion.
Taihuang also turned his head to look. He did not know what had happened to Shen Lang.
"It's nothing. It's just that the Demon Clan has come into being and is now confronting the Human Clan in the Zhenwu Continent."
Through the system, Shen Lang could understand a lot of information, such as the current situation of the Demon Clan and the Human Clan.
