The six devils were the trusted subordinates of the old Demon Emperor and were loyal to the six generals under the old Demon Emperor.
It was rumored that if the Demon Emperor had another hundred thousand years, he'd be able to unify the three races thanks to his extraordinary methods and the Six Demons.
Back then, the demons had been brimming with battle intent, suppressing the other two races.
Unfortunately, good times didn't last. The Demon Emperor vanished without a trace, and the Six Demons vanished with him.
Kui Lin had secured his throne with the support of several demon gods, stabilizing the demons' chaotic territory. However, the demons' battle prowess was no longer as great as it had been during the Demon Emperor's reign.
The Hong Mo's appearance made many believe that the Demon Emperor was preparing to make a comeback at the end of this era.
No one would have thought that the Red Devil would say such words.
Avenge the Demon Emperor!
Didn't that mean the rumors weren't groundless? The Demon Emperor really had been killed, and his Six Demons had died in battle?
The Hong Mo didn't care what his words made the people in the secret room think. He'd always been like this, saying whatever he wanted to say.
His goal here was to obtain a fortuitous encounter and avenge the Demon Emperor.
"Revenge?"
Muttered the God Emperor's remnant soul. Although the Hong Mo's words shocked the people in the secret room, they knew this wasn't a big deal to the God Emperor's remnant soul.
However, no one could've guessed that the God Emperor's remnant soul was actually …
"Do you know who you're seeking revenge on? I can give you some help."
Everyone's expressions froze. The Hong Mo hadn't expected the God Emperor's remnant soul to say something like this. After a brief moment of shock, he snorted and shook his head, his entire body radiating a piercing, murderous aura.
"No need. I've already made up my mind."
The Red Fiend knew very well who the enemy he wanted to take revenge against was.
He glanced at Kui Lin vaguely, but no one could sense the bloodlust hidden in that ordinary glance.
The others couldn't sense it, but Kui Lin could.
The Hong Mo knew what had happened in the past!
Since that was the case, the Hong Mo couldn't be allowed to live. He had to find a way to deal with him in the mausoleum. If he walked out of here alive, he'd be a huge problem for Kui Lin to deal with.
"Then I wish you success."
After the Divine Emperor's remnant soul chuckled, he stopped talking to the Red Fiend. In fact, it could be said that he had only spoken a few words to the Red Fiend from the beginning to the end.
In an instant, the secret chamber shook violently.
Under everyone's terrified expressions, the secret room that was so small that it made people feel oppressed had actually transformed into a paradise.
The beautiful stream flowed slowly, the vegetation was full of life, the birds were singing, and the flowers were fragrant.
It would be very difficult to find a place like this in the Peach Garden Realm, even if one searched the God, Yao, and Demon races.
"What a wonderful Peach Garden Realm."
Even the Ocean Sovereign and the others couldn't help but marvel at this scene. They were all high and mighty figures, but the more powerful they were, the more they couldn't relax.
The Peach Blossom Realm seemed to possess some sort of magical power. When one was here, one's tense nerves would involuntarily relax. The vexation of the past would also disappear, and one would only want to stay here and enjoy life.
Not only that, but the comprehension of Dao Techniques and the density of Spiritual Energy here far surpassed that of the outside world.
Even though everyone here was an Emperor-level expert, it would be almost impossible for them to advance any further. However, everyone here firmly believed that so long as they stayed here, in less than half a month, their shackles would be easily broken.
Quite a few people had already sensed that this place was extraordinary, so they seized every moment to sit down cross-legged and comprehend the Dao.
Others seemed to be immersed in life. As they gazed at the river, their eyes flashed with unprecedented mellowness.
"What's the meaning of this? Why did they bring us here?"
Yang Jian didn't pay much attention to this place. The scenery here was indeed pleasant, that was undeniable. However, he lived in the Heavenly Palace. Although the Heavenly Palace was a lower plane, he had to admit that the scenery there was far better.
Even though this was a relatively pleasant rural lifestyle, it wasn't nearly as immortal as the Heavenly Palace.
Ye Zichen said nothing. He simply looked around in silence. He didn't move about recklessly like the others, nor did he sit down cross-legged to comprehend the Dao of Heaven and Earth.
"How was it? Was the God Emperor impressive?"
Gu Li walked over with a smile on his face. He wasn't like the others, who spoke of the Realm of Peach Blossoms with a hint of playfulness. He clearly knew a lot about this place. Before he entered the tomb, Gu Li must've told him many details about this place.
"What do you mean?" asked Ye Zichen. "The people who came here are all aiming to transcend fate, but look at it now … Are there still thirty percent of them who are obsessed with fate?" Gu Li looked around vaguely. "That's not all. They've even let down their most basic guard. If anyone tries to attack now, who would they be?
None of them can escape. "
"Are you saying that the God Emperor's remnant soul wants us to kill each other?" Ye Zichen frowned.
"You're overthinking things. I was just making an analogy," said Gu Li. The way Ye Zichen saw it, not even the God Emperor's remnant soul would do such a thing. The era was about to end, and the Transcendence Mausoleum was there to give it hope. Everyone here was a peak-level expert of the Three Realms. If he wanted them to kill each other, then when the Aura-Breaking Behemoth attacked, who would defend against it?
Who would defend against it?
However, the God Emperor's remnant soul probably knew why they'd come here. Instead of letting them into the inner palace, he sent them here.
Could this be the inner palace?
"What exactly is the God Emperor's remnant soul trying to do?" Ye Zichen couldn't help but mutter. "He's trying to filter out a few people." Gu Li leaned against Ye Zichen. No one knew when they'd gotten so close. "Now's the time for a troublemaker to ask questions. If I'm not mistaken, it should be the demons' Red Demon. Speaking of the Red Demons, I almost forgot.
Are you done with your preparations? "
Ye Zichen instantly stiffened. Just a moment ago, he'd almost put his arm around Gu Li's shoulder. He took a few steps back. He looked at Gu Li vigilantly. Only a few people and Xue Yang, the Sea Emperor, knew about the Demon Emperor. How did Gu Li know about the Demon Emperor?
"It seems I said something I shouldn't have." Gu Li laughed and shrugged.
Just as Gu Li pursed his lips into a smile, just as he expected, while everyone was immersed in the tranquility of this otherworldly paradise, the Red Demon, who was the most out of place, glared at them and roared angrily.
"Are you messing with us?"
His thunderous roar shook the hearts of everyone present, whether they were sitting cross-legged or admiring the flowers.
They looked at the enraged Hong Mo in confusion. Soon after, they heard him furiously roar again.
"We came here in search of the Dao of Transcendence, not to indulge ourselves!"
"Isn't this place good?" The God Emperor's remnant soul's voice resounded through the air. The Red Demon gazed at the source of life, his gaze sharp. "I don't see anything good about this place!"
"This is a paradise I spent my entire life creating. The spiritual energy here is far denser than the outside world, and I've comprehended all of my Dao. So long as you settle down here, you can still transcend. It's far easier to obtain than the Dao of Transcendence in the mausoleum's inner palace. "
"I yearn for the end of the era. The Second Era failed to transcend, and I don't want to see the tragedy of the Third Era repeat itself. I wholeheartedly thought about all of you, but now you're questioning me? Isn't it better to sit here and comprehend the Dao better than the inner palace, where there's a slim chance of survival? "
The God Emperor's remnant soul's sonorous reply made many people nod in praise. They felt that the God Emperor's remnant soul was thinking about them.
However, what was interesting was that those who stood on the God Emperor's remnant soul's side were generally those who had immersed themselves in the Realm of Peach Blossom when they entered.
The Red Demon didn't speak. However, the determination in his gaze as he raised his head to look at the void was clear.
Among those who had come to the mausoleum in search of opportunities, the Red Demon was the only one who had come here alone. It was also because he had come alone that no one could persuade him.
Many people already stood on the God Emperor's remnant soul's side. They wanted to console him, but when they thought about the Red Demon, they could only swallow their words.
"What a stubborn person."
The void suddenly distorted, and a wisp of a soul appeared in everyone's line of sight.
This soul's eyes were filled with anger. From this, it could be seen that this was the God Emperor's remnant soul that had always been at odds with the Red Demon.
"Greetings, Senior."
Everyone, regardless of whether they were gods, yao, or demons, bowed to the remnant soul. The God Emperor's remnant soul acted as if he hadn't seen them at all. He walked straight up to the Red Demon.
"You can't choose the path of life, yet you insist on choosing the path of death. If you enter the mausoleum, you'll most likely die. You better think this through!"
The God Emperor's remnant soul's anger was obvious. It seemed he'd never seen someone so stubborn before.
He'd already done all he could, but the Red Demon wouldn't listen no matter what.
"So what?" said the Red Demon, completely unconcerned.
"You really are stubborn!" The God Emperor's remnant soul angrily waved his hand, then glanced at the others. "Do you think he thinks the same way? Don't blame me for not warning you. Even an imperial expert will most likely die if you enter the inner palace. "
"Senior, we'd like to take a look inside," said Gu Li suddenly, cupping his hands respectfully.
While everyone else fell silent, Gu Li's words caused the Red Demon to glance at him again. The God Emperor's remnant soul narrowed his eyes, as if he were furious at yet another ignorant brat.
After that, he looked at his surroundings once more. Soon after, he couldn't restrain his gaze and nodded.
"Fine. Since you're willing to die, I won't stop you."
As soon as the God Emperor's remnant soul finished speaking, the surrounding space split into two.
One was the Shangri-La that they were currently in. As for the space next to it, it was a place where magma was erupting, heavenly fire was falling, and lightning flashed and thunder rumbled.
