Inside Zhui Ming Demon Emperor's resting palace, Chen Zong was circulating his cultivation technique to speed up the recovery of his Mixed Yuan Heart Force. Jing Wuxue quickly took some pills and circulated his cultivation technique to recover his cultivation.
While the three of them were recovering their cultivation, their eyes were fixed in front of them. Through the broken throne, they stared at the collapsed wall.
Had Zhui Ming Demon Emperor been killed?
After all, Bai Yi's ten breaths' worth of attack had exhausted all of his strength. Its power had increased exponentially and was extremely terrifying. It had directly surpassed the limit of the Demon King level and reached the Demon Emperor level.
The atmosphere was heavy and oppressive, spreading in all directions.
With a bang, countless fragments suddenly exploded, shooting out like locusts that filled the sky. A portion of the fragments carried a shocking force as they blasted towards Chen Zong's group. Subsequently, a blurry figure charged out, its speed extremely fast, so fast that it was incomparably brazen as it charged towards them.
Even though Chen Zong was extremely vigilant, he couldn't react in time. He could only forcefully wave his sword to block the attack. He felt a terrifying force coming towards him, directly bombarding his sword, and then through the sword, bombarding his body.
In just an instant, Chen Zong was blasted away and directly hit the wall of the palace, hanging there like a painting.
"Kill!" Chen Zong, who seemed to be stuck to the wall, quickly slid down. He stomped his feet and became one with his sword. His sword turned into a sword light and slashed across the sky.
Zhui Ming Demon Emperor wasn't killed by the fog dragon, but the effect of the fog dragon's attack was obvious. At least, Zhui Ming Demon Emperor's strength had been greatly reduced. Otherwise, this angry attack wouldn't have just sent Chen Zong flying, but also smashed Chen Zong into pieces.
Being sent flying and being smashed were two huge differences. It was enough to show that Zhui Ming Demon Emperor's strength had decreased a lot, from the Demon Emperor level to the Demon King level.
Could a Demon Emperor maintain his Demon Emperor level strength?
No, when he was injured, his strength would be affected and weakened.
Zhui Ming Demon Emperor wasn't dead, but his strength was weakened. This could be considered good news. It meant that Chen Zong and the others could indeed counterattack.
Bai Yi and Jing Wuxue attacked again, and the three of them joined forces to attack Zhui Ming Demon Emperor.
The Life Chasing Devil Emperor had changed. Half of his body was broken, but there was no blood. It was indeed the body of a devil puppet.
Although Chen Zong and the other two had already guessed it, they were still surprised when they saw it with their own eyes. They were surprised by Zhui Ming Demon Emperor's amazing attainments in Demonic Puppetry. He actually transformed himself into a Demonic Puppet. Sure enough, he was not an ordinary person.
Bai Yi's Mist Dragon attack was indeed powerful. Although it did not kill Zhui Ming Demon Monarch on the spot, it still severely injured him. Half of his body was destroyed, and his strength was greatly reduced. Under the combined attacks of Chen Zong and the other two, Zhui Ming Demon Monarch was gradually weakened.
Fleeting Youth!
With Bai Yi and Jing Wuxue delaying Zhui Ming Demon Emperor for the time being, Chen Zong attacked with his sword. Instantly, the dim light seemed to brighten up a lot. An indescribable sense of magnificence arose spontaneously, and the air was filled with a trace of mystery.
This sword directly hit Zhui Ming Demon Emperor's Demonic Puppet body. The sword qi entrenched itself in his body, wantonly absorbing Zhui Ming Demon Emperor's strength. Then, it exploded, and like a flash in the pan, it immediately caused Zhui Ming Demon Emperor to be severely injured.
If Zhui Ming Demon Emperor was at his peak, Fleeting Youth might not be effective. Even if it was effective, the damage would not be so great. However, Zhui Ming Demon Emperor's injuries were very obvious.
Bai Yi attacked with his palm, and the mist filled the air. Strands and strands of mist were like dust, but they all contained a terrifying power.
Jing Wuxue exploded with all his strength.
The gray blurry figure wielded an invisible sword and tore through everything with a single slash.
Everything in the world returned to dust!
Chen Zong also exploded with a killing move.
Zhui Ming Demon Emperor's Demonic Puppet body was finally destroyed.
When they saw that Zhui Ming Demon Emperor's Demonic Puppet body was completely destroyed, an indescribable sense of excitement appeared in their hearts.
They had finally killed him.
It was too difficult. Zhui Ming Demon Emperor's strength was too strong. Fortunately, Bai Yi had such a trump card. Otherwise, they would not have been able to win this battle.
Bai Yi's body flashed, and he immediately searched Zhui Ming Demon Emperor's Demonic Puppet body. Finally, he took out a piece of pitch-black crystal from his head. It was a black crystal about the size of a baby's fist. It was extremely dark and deep, as if it contained boundless darkness.
Just by looking at it, one could feel that one's soul was about to be sucked into the dark crystal.
Demonic Soul!
This was the Demonic Soul. This was the crystallization of a Demonic Emperor. It was the core of his strength, the crystallization of his origin.
If other members of the Demonic Tribe were to obtain the Demonic Soul, they would be able to obtain the Demonic Emperor's inheritance and the Demonic Emperor's origin energy from the Demonic Soul. They would be able to become experts in a short period of time, or at least reach the Demonic King Realm.
Chen Zong stared at the black crystal. With his sharp senses, he could feel the extremely pure energy contained within it.
It was a pity that the Demonic Soul would belong to Bai Yi. This was the original deal, to help Bai Yi obtain the Demonic Soul.
Although he did not obtain the Demonic Soul, he knew that if he wanted to obtain the Demonic Soul, he would have to find a way through the Demonic Emperors. This was because the Demonic Soul was unique to the Demonic Emperors.
Then, in this mausoleum, where the Blood Sword Demon Emperor and Xing Gu Demon Emperor were resting, would their Demonic Souls be there as well?
Chen Zong thought more about it.
Demigod Di Jiu recommended him in exchange for the Heavenly Soul and the Demonic Soul. The Heavenly Soul belonged to the Heavenly Human Tribe, while the Demonic Soul belonged to the Demonic Tribe. As for what Di Jiu wanted the Heavenly Soul and the Demonic Soul for, Chen Zong did not know. After all, Di Jiu was a Demigod, and the Heavenly Soul was probably something similar to the Demonic Soul. It was not yet at the Demigod Realm.
If a Demigod could not obtain something of the Demigod Realm, what was the use of it?
Perhaps it was for research.
This had nothing to do with Chen Zong. It was about obtaining the Heavenly Soul and the Demonic Soul, then handing them over to Di Jiu to complete the deal.
As for reneging on the deal, Chen Zong did not think about it.
"Brother Bai, can you let me have a look?" Chen Zong stared at the black crystal and asked.
Bai Yi was slightly stunned. He glanced at Chen Zong, then threw the black crystal to Chen Zong.
"Thank you." Chen Zong showed a look of gratitude.
To be honest, the Demonic Soul was very important. After all, it could only be obtained by killing a Demonic Emperor, and killing a Demonic Emperor was extremely difficult.
Although the mausoleum contained the resting places of the Blood Sword Demon Emperor and the Ancient Xing Demon Sword, it was unknown whether or not they could obtain the Demonic Soul. Chen Zong asked Bai Yi for the Demonic Soul to take a look. If Chen Zong had any thoughts, he could keep the Demonic Soul. With Chen Zong's strength, although he could not defeat Bai Yi, it would not be difficult for him to retreat.
Bai Yi had thought of this as well. He had thought of it in an instant, and the thought had flashed through his mind in an instant.
However, Bai Yi still threw the Demonic Soul to Chen Zong. He did not hand it over carefully. That was a sign of trust.
It had been a few years since they had entered the Dark Sky Empire. The three of them had spent a lot of time together and were very familiar with each other. Bai Yi trusted Chen Zong and believed that he would not be greedy for the Demonic Soul.
But what if he was really greedy?
Sometimes, the human heart was the most unpredictable.
Bai Yi did not think too much about it. Or rather, he did not want to think too much about it.
Chen Zong held the black crystal. He was very grateful for Bai Yi's trust. Then, he tried to use the Ancient God Armor Refining Art to see if the Demonic Soul would be useful for his Ancient God Armor Refining Art. He wanted to see if it could upgrade the Ancient God Armor Refining Art from the Soldier Grade to the General Grade.
As soon as the Ancient God Armor Refining Art was activated, Chen Zong felt a reaction from the Demonic Soul in his hand. It was as if it was about to be devoured. After confirming this, Chen Zong immediately stopped the Ancient God Armor Refining Art and returned the Demonic Soul to Bai Yi.
"Thank you very much," Chen Zong said solemnly.
Bai Yi smiled and took the Demonic Soul. He immediately put it away. The three of them continued to search for the other treasures of Zhui Ming Demon Emperor. Just now, Zhui Ming Demon Emperor waved his hand and hundreds of light balls appeared. Each light ball represented a treasure. That meant there were hundreds of treasures.
The most important thing was to find the key.
If they wanted to enter the last level of the mausoleum and enter the resting place of Zhui Ming Demon Emperor, they needed the key. Zhui Ming Demon Emperor had left two keys on the stone tablet. They were placed in the resting places of Zhui Ming Demon Emperor and Blood Sword Demon Emperor respectively. Only by obtaining the two keys could one enter the resting place of Zhui Ming Demon Emperor.
Without a doubt, the main goal of the Demon Kings who entered the mausoleum was Zhui Ming Demon Emperor. Zhui Ming Demon Emperor and Blood Sword Demon Emperor were just collateral.
But where was the key?
There were no clues at all. They didn't even know what the so-called key looked like. They could only rely on luck.
After searching for a long time, Chen Zong and the other two didn't find anything like a key. They also didn't find any other treasures of Zhui Ming Demon Emperor. They didn't know where they were hidden.
Kacha! Kacha! Kacha! Suddenly, the entire palace hall seemed to be quaking, alarming Chen Zong and the other two. Looking over, they saw that a corner of the palace hall had cracked open to reveal two staircases, seemingly leading into endless darkness.
The three of them looked at each other and walked over.
There were two staircases, one leading down and one leading up. The one leading down should be the staircase that led to the next floor of the mausoleum, which was also the staircase that led to the Blood Sword Demon Emperor's resting place. The one leading up might be the staircase that led back to the previous floor of the mausoleum, which was also the staircase that led to the exit of this place.
So, should they go up or down?
Should they continue or leave?
That was a choice.
Speaking of which, Bai Yi had already obtained the Demon Soul. He could leave and return to the Ancient Divine Dynasty. Or he could leave the mausoleum and go to other places in the Dark Sky Empire.
Everyone's goal in entering this world fragment was to obtain the Demon Bloodline.
Compared to obtaining the Demon Soul, it was easier to obtain the Demon Bloodline. But that didn't mean it was easy. Since ancient times, many people from the Ancient Divine Dynasty had entered this world. But only a few of them were able to obtain the Demon Bloodline.
Chen Zong wanted to continue going down because there was hope for him to obtain the Demon Soul. There might even be more than one piece.
The Demon Soul was very useful to him. Firstly, it could help him cultivate the Ancient Divine Armor Refining Skill and increase the level of the Ancient Divine Sword Armor. Secondly, he could give it to Di Jiu to complete the trade between them.
