"This is …"
A middle-aged man in short, brown, hemp garments and a beard made his way out of the tent that was as grand as a palace. He gazed at the sky in surprise. It was not like he had never seen a "demon seed" being born before, but he had never heard of one that could cause such a tremendous phenomenon.
The Demon domain was boundless, far beyond what the nine provinces could rival. If the nine provinces were compared to a small lake, then the Demon domain would be the vast ocean. A small lake could not nurture a large fish, but the ocean could accommodate dragons.
Its twisted, evil will permeated every speck of dust. Perhaps it was no different from the will of the world of the nine provinces in nature. However, when the small lake rippled slightly, the ocean churned violently and the ocean flowed for thousands of kilometers. Even true dragons could not go against the flow. If they could go with the flow, they would receive endless assistance. This was exactly what it meant to borrow the strength of the world when the time came.
There were as many "demon seeds" as there were carps in the river throughout history. There were differences in quality among them. The purer it was, the greater the temptation.
He hated this feeling of being out of control, which was why he did not take off on his sword and devour the demon seed. However, he hated the throbbing in the depths of his heart even more. He felt like the "demon seed" was filled with disaster and misfortune.
Regular demonfolk were unable to resist this temptation, let alone the brainless demonic beasts.
A strange bird unfurled its bluish-black bat wings and kicked up a fierce gust of wind, sending all the demonfolk within three meters into the air.
"Caw!"
A sharp, ear-piercing howl sounded like the bugle call for a charge. Several hundred thousand demonfolk flew towards the "demon seed".
In that moment, they shrouded the sky and filled the air with a ruckus.
The man's gaze was as sharp as a sword as he stood there without moving. Even as the commander of this army, he was unable to stop this revelry. As far as the eye could see, the Demon Kings under his command all remained on the sidelines. They did not act recklessly. At the same time, they remained cautious of one another. In the end, their gazes all gathered on him. No one could steal the demon seed from him.
"Sir Demon Emperor, what do we do?"
"Wait!"
In the depths of the vortex, a male and female voice argued intensely. The two wills clashed desperately.
"Bitch, piss off!" The man roared as he resisted the will of heaven. With his masculine power, he gained the absolute upper hand.
"Hehehehe, trash, loser, cuckold …" The woman laughed crazily and spat out the words one by one, directly hitting the man's weak spot.
"All women in the world deserve to die!" The man's inner demons danced chaotically, and he flew into a rage. He wanted nothing more than to perish together with her.
"Oh, how sad your mother will be!" But the woman never regarded death as a threat. She laughed at the man's incompetence even more wantonly.
It was like an eternal struggle between men and women, rationality and emotion, masculinity and femininity. No matter how strong a man was, he would never be able to completely conquer a weak woman. Just like how rationality could never erase emotions, because a woman's body was pregnant with the Heavenly Dao.
The body of the True Dragon, which was a mixture of the flesh and blood of many Grand Cultivators and demon kings, bobbed up and down in the swirl like a child that was left aside and ignored. Although it was the cause of the dispute.
Therefore, it grew up without restraint, and demonic energy surged into it. It expanded a thousand times and turned into a golden-scaled snake with a pair of dragon eyes. It twisted its body violently as if it had gone mad.
The Demon Emperor's heart tightened. A colossal body like that definitely would not be easy to deal with. The Demon Kings even began to consider retreating. They had basically given up on the idea of devouring the demon seed.
The huge snake devoured all the demon qi in the air, and its colossal body fell straight towards the ground. It smashed into the mountainous demonfolk army at first before landing heavily with a great rumble. Countless demonfolk were smashed to pulp.
However, even more demonfolk surged over, swallowing the huge snake in a black mass. Looking down from above, it seemed like a group of ants trying to divide and devour a dead snake.
Rumble! The huge snake rolled its body, grinding through the ground again and again.
Crack! Crack! Its bones shattered. Spurt! Spurt! Flesh and blood sprayed everywhere.
The sounds mixed together, enough to make people shiver in fear and feel their scalps tingle. In the blink of an eye, it had turned the ground into a swamp of flesh and blood. It was filled with mangled flesh and severed limbs. The smell of blood rose into the air.
However, the frenzied atmosphere did not stop. Instead, it rose even higher. The demonfolk lunged towards the huge snake wave after wave.
Most of those who were crushed to pulp were regular demonfolk, while the thousands of Demon Commanders and Demon Emperors flew through the air agilely like winged soldier ants, allowing the demonfolk to deplete the snake's power.
Gradually, the huge snake stopped wriggling as if it had used up all of its strength in its struggle. It lay on the ground like a dead snake, allowing the ants to swallow it.
The golden scales were indestructible, but they could not stop the claws and teeth of so many demonfolk. They were ripped apart bit by bit.
The demonfolk tasted the sweet, delicious flesh and blood of the true dragon. The mysterious power of the demon seed within it made them even more spirited and more zealous.
"That's it?"
The Demon Emperor was stunned. This was basically worse than a regular wild beast. It was a complete waste of such terrifying power.
For some reason, he had a feeling that the huge snake was not struggling against the demonfolk. Instead, it was fighting against an invisible enemy. Just what had happened to the nine provinces?
He could not help but glance at the demon cavern in the sky, and his eyes suddenly narrowed. He saw a strange, twisted sword hovering right below the black demon cavern. He cried out involuntarily, "The Obedient Sword!"
Originally, he saw how the huge snake had stopped struggling and was about to go fight over the demon seed, but he could no longer care about anything else now. He immediately formed a seal with his hand, and with a thunk, the sword on his back flew out of its sheath. Afterwards, he took off on his sword, shooting towards the sword as a violet streak of light.
He glanced at the ground from the corner of his eye, only to see the Demon Kings lunging towards the huge snake from all directions, killing and scattering all the demonfolk who stood in their way. They feasted on the snake's body. In order to devour even faster, they directly demonified.
He snorted coldly inside, I'll let you eat some flesh and blood for now. If you're bold enough to devour the demon seed, then you're just looking to die!
To him, the "Obedient Sword" was even more important than the "demon seed". It was the greatest reason why he had given up on cultivation and personally presided over the invasion of the nine provinces. As he rapidly drew closer, he gripped the other sword on his waist cautiously. He still had to be wary of the Obedient Sword soul inside.
However, even when he gripped the hilt, the Obedient Sword did not budge at all.
He could not help but laugh. "Truly, one can wear out iron shoes in fruitless search, only to find it effortlessly by chance. Once I go collect the demon seed again, my gains will definitely be no less than conquering the nine provinces!"
At this moment, miserable cries rang out from below. To his shock, he discovered that the cries were actually coming from the Demon Kings under his command.
These Demon Kings were all extremely vicious. Who knew how many battles they had gone through to reach their current level. They had basically become numb to pain. If he had not seen it with his own eyes, he basically would have struggled to believe just what kind of pain could make them cry out like that. It was like … like they had fallen into hell.
