The Way Back
Seeing that Ning Qi's aura had calmed down, the demons nearby had a strange look in their eyes. The Lightning Tribulation had not appeared, which meant that Ning Qi had not broken through to the Human Demon Stage. But why had the commotion just now been so terrifying?
"As expected of the number one Heaven's Pride. Even a small breakthrough can cause such a commotion …"
A demon could not help but exclaim, a trace of envy in his eyes. The other demons suddenly understood when they heard this.
So that was it!
As expected of the number one Heaven's Pride. He was so different. What was supposed to be a thought-provoking scene was attributed to Ning Qi's current status. It was as if his status as the number one Heaven's Pride could explain anything that happened even if they did not understand.
"My body …"
Ning Qi looked around and found that his current physical body was incomparably huge. He was sure that he didn't use the Primordial Immortal Fiendgod Physique. With a thought, Ning Qi's physical body shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye. But when he reached three zhang tall, he couldn't shrink anymore no matter what. If he forced himself to shrink any further, the surging devil qi in his body would burst his body.
"Young Master Bei Xuan's Demonic Art has reached the Great Accomplishment Stage!"
Lan Ruo's eyes lit up when he saw this. Ning Qi had taught him a few words before, which had benefited him greatly. He had thought that this phenomenon was because Ning Qi had cultivated this Demonic Art to the Great Accomplishment Stage.
"Congratulations, congratulations."
Chang Guisong let out a long laugh and took the lead to congratulate Ning Qi. Only when he was in front of Ning Qi could he truly feel how thick and terrifying the Demonic Qi within Ning Qi's body was. Even he was likely a level weaker than it. The other three Great Perfection Human Demons also stepped forward to congratulate Ning Qi. At the same time, they felt the same shock as Chang Guisong.
Ning Qi smiled. Chang Guisong had come once when the Heaven's Pride of the Mystic Land had complained about him. Although Ning Qi did not leave the cave abode, he had remembered Chang Guisong's aura. Chang Guisong's actions had made Ning Qi very grateful that he had not chased him away for stealing the Demonic Qi of other Heaven's Prides.
"Thank you, Senior Song."
Ning Qi looked down at Chang Guisong and smiled. He could not help it. He was too tall now. Chang Guisong was like a child before him.
"Congratulations, young master Bei Xuan!"
The demons nearby exclaimed in unison upon seeing this. The sky-prides in the mystic realm looked a little unnatural when they saw this, but they still clasped their fists and congratulated them.
"Everyone, you're too polite."
With a smile on his face, Ning Qi cupped his fists towards the surroundings.
"Brother Beixuan, these are the magical crystals you handed over last time. They're all in here. We didn't touch any of them."
Chang Guisong took out an Interspatial Ring with a smile and handed it to Ning Qi.
A hint of confusion flashed through Ning Qi's eyes. He frowned slightly and asked, "Senior Song, what is this?"
Could it be that the other party was finally chasing him away?
"Little Brother Beixuan, don't misunderstand. You won first place in the Demon Race's Heaven's Chosen Battle this time, and you're cultivating in Hidden Cultivator City. This is equivalent to raising the reputation of Hidden Cultivator City and bringing honor to Yan Mountain City. Naturally, we can't accept this Devil Crystal. In the future, little brother Beixuan can cultivate as long as you want in the Secret Realm."
Chang Guisong smiled.
"Since that's the case, I won't stand on ceremony."
Ning Qi smiled and didn't act pretentiously. It would be a waste if he didn't accept one million mid-grade Devil Crystals.
Seeing that Ning Qi accepted the Devil Crystal, Chang Guisong and the other three smiled even more brightly. This at least meant that Ning Qi accepted their goodwill.
"Little Brother Beixuan, this cave abode of yours is already damaged. Shall I get someone to change it for you?"
Chang Guisong looked at the cave abode that had been reduced to ruins by Ning Qi's body and smiled.
Ning Qi smiled and indicated that he didn't need to cultivate in the Secret Realm anymore. Then, he cupped his fists towards Chang Guisong and the others and flew towards Lurriere's side, returning to the Demon King's Residence with them.
The demonic geniuses in the Secret Realm were overjoyed when they saw this.
This devil was finally going to leave. Their cultivation progress would be the same as before!
If it weren't for the fact that there were no firecrackers here, there would definitely be demons who couldn't help but set off firecrackers to celebrate this.
Demon King's Residence.
Ning Qi's previous courtyard was no longer suitable for his current size. Lurriere got someone to build a courtyard that was countless times larger overnight. When everyone walked into the courtyard, it felt like they had entered the Giant City.
In the main hall.
Ning Qi sat in the middle. The huge chair was just right for him. Then, there were ordinary chairs on both sides. Lurriere, Lan Ruo, and the others sat on them. They felt like children, while Ning Qi was a teacher teaching children. The style was really too strange.
"Disciple-Nephew Beixuan, you can't shrink your body anymore?"
Lurriere asked.
"Right now, the demonic qi in my body is surging. I should need some time to digest it. After I completely absorb the demonic qi, I should be able to return to my original size."
Ning Qi smiled.
"That's good."
Lurriere and the others heaved a sigh of relief. Otherwise, if Ning Qi was so huge all day, they would be under too much pressure every time they saw him.
"Uncle-Master, why isn't Master back yet?"
Ning Qi scanned with his Divine Will. He didn't find Pain's aura. A strange look appeared in his eyes. Pain seemed to be very busy and was basically not in Yanshan City.
"Your Master likes to run around. He's probably out looking for fortuitous encounters."
Lurriere chuckled. Lan Ruo nodded as if he was already used to this.
After chatting for a while, Lurriere got up and left. Ning Qi's lips moved slightly as he imparted the complete Demon Ancestor Golden Body Technique to Lan Ruo. Lan Ruo stood rooted to the ground before ecstatically looking at Ning Qi. With a plop, he knelt down in front of Yuan Venerate Immortal Slayer, Yuan Venerate Devil Corpse, Gu Yuanze, Fifth Snow Lord, Ye, Great Sage Xuan Zhen, Gu Miaoxian, and the others.
"Thank you, Young Master Beixuan, for imparting this supreme demonic technique to me!"
Bam! Bam!
Lan Ruo kowtowed three times. Ning Qi gently lifted his head and a formless force stopped Lan Ruo, preventing him from kowtowing any further.
"Go."
Ning Qi smiled.
Lan Ruo got up and nodded before leaving the main hall in delight.
Then, Ning Qi sent Gu Yuanze and the Fifth Snow Lord away. Then, he looked at the Great Sage Xuan Zhen and the others and said solemnly, "I will leave the Immortal Prison soon and return to the Central Mainland."
"What?"
Yuan Venerate Immortal Slayer and Yuan Venerate Devil Corpse looked at Ning Qi in surprise.
"Yuan Venerate Beixuan, have you found the way back?"
Yuan Venerate Immortal Slayer asked solemnly.
"I knew the way back from the beginning. Otherwise, how could I have let Dao Yan have the chance to suppress me?"
Ning Qi chuckled.
Yuan Venerate Slayer and Yuan Venerate Immortal looked at each other in shock when they heard this. Did Ning Qi's words mean …
The two of them had never imagined that Ning Qi had deliberately let Dao Yan suppress him back then. This scheming …
"That's why I'm asking the two of you if you want to go back together?"
