A row of Mara troops slowly patrolled the cave. They were responsible for the safety of the residence of the Devil General Zi Yan, and this devil's cave was also the residence of Zi Yan. In the Devil World, the devil's flames were rampant, and the environment outside was so harsh that even the powerful Devil General could only find such a cave to rest.
There were more than 30 Mara in total, and each of them had cold eyes and stooped bodies, breathing heavily.
But just as this group of Mara was patrolling the cave as usual, suddenly an invisible aura rippled out. It was the Domain of God, and they were completely unable to move. They couldn't even shout. The next moment, a beautiful figure descended from the sky. It was Xi Yan. She didn't say much, and the light divine power in her palm slowly pressed down.
"Pfft, pfft, pfft …"
The bodies of the Mara could not withstand the heavy pressure of the domain, and one by one, they exploded, and blood flowed everywhere.
Xi Yan didn't stop at all. She leaped and flew into the depths of the cave. Over there, a powerful aura had already been detected because of her killing, and the aura was constantly rising.
…
"Swoosh!"
The agile figure shot into the depths of the cave like an arrow into a dense forest. The next second, Xi Yan was already standing straight on the giant rock on the left side of the hall at the end of the cave, and a pair of beautiful eyes looked disdainfully at the person on the throne.
That person had long purple-red hair, a ferocious steel mask on his face, and a long sword glowing with red flames was placed beside him. He looked at Xi Yan silently, as if he had already known that she would come.
On the side, dozens of Mara were all shocked, and they raised their weapons and rushed over.
"Stop!"
The Devil General Zi Yan spoke, and his voice was like a ghost's roar from purgatory, "She is mine, no one can snatch her from me. All of you back off, there is no place for you to intervene here!"
The crowd of Mara roared wildly, but they kept holding their weapons and retreated according to the order, watching from afar.
"You are Zi Yan?" Xi Yan asked.
"That's right, I am Zi Yan." Zi Yan looked up at Xi Yan and said, "Your breath is very strong. You should be a survivor from the Six Realms. If I were you, I would find a hole to hide in and live for a while longer. Instead of coming to the Demon Realm to seek death like a moth flying into the fire, hehehe …"
Xi Yan held the Chiyue Sword in her hand and smiled indifferently. "Stop dreaming. You are no match for me with your abilities. Can't you feel it?"
"Of course I can, but so what?" Zi Yan sneered, "Do you dare to kill me? As long as you kill me, the news will immediately spread to every corner of the Devil World, and there will be even more experts of the Devil World coming to kill you. I'm just a mere Devil General. Above me, there are still the Holy King, the Holy Emperor, and the Supreme of the Devil World. They … are not people you can fight against. "
"Cut the crap. I don't want to kill you. I just want to ask you something."
"Oh? Say it. "Zi Yan secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Xi Yan said, "Where is Eva?"
"Eva? Who is that? "Zi Yan was startled.
"The Blazing Angel who guards the Six Realms Seal, my sister. She has been swallowed by the Devil Flame. Tell me, is Eva in the Devil World? Has she been taken away by you?"
Xi Yan was a little emotional.
"I don't know." Zi Yan said, "The Devil World's army that participated in breaking the Six Realms Seal did not include me, and with my strength, I am not qualified to participate in the war against the Six Realms. I think you are asking the wrong person."
"How dare you!"
Xi Yan shouted, and the six wings behind her spread out. Her aura was so cold that Zi Yan and all the other Mara squatted down in fear. How could they withstand the sharpness of the Blazing Angel. Xi Yan's bright eyes were filled with killing intent. "The Devil World swallowed Eva. Do you dare to say that you, a Devil General, have no idea?!"
"I … I …"
Zi Yan knelt on the ground, trembling, but his palm gently moved to the long sword beside him.
"Do you want to resist?!"
Xi Yan's eyes were burning. The power of her domain quickly revolved and shot towards the ground like a white flame. In an instant, it actually melted Zi Yan's weapon into a pool of molten iron. Xi Yan's strength was so deep that it was terrifying.
Zi Yan's heart beat violently. This woman was not human at all!
"I … I …" Zi Yan wanted to explain, but didn't know where to start.
The Chiyue sword in Xi Yan's hand slowly hummed. She sneered and said, "I'll give you one last chance. Tell me, where is Eva? If you don't, I will make you evaporate along with this hole of yours. "
Zi Yan trembled and finally compromised. He said to the group of Mara, "All of you get out. No one is allowed to come in without my order. Immediately!"
"Yes, Lord Devil General …"
Mara and the others quickly left. Zi Yan looked up at Xi Yan and said, "I can tell you, but you must promise not to kill me. Only you won't kill me."
"Yes, I mean what I say," said Xi Yan.
Zi Yan took a deep breath and said, "Eva was indeed devoured by the demonic flames. However, her cultivation was very high and her divinity protected her body automatically, so she wasn't completely devoured and disintegrated. Therefore … although her body was burned, her spirit and Fate seeped into her broken sword. The Demon World sent a large number of troops to the six realms and retrieved the broken sword in which Eva's Fate resided. This broken sword is now in the Phecda Temple."
"Phecda Temple? What's that place? "
"The Phecda Temple … Heh, that's the heart of the Demon World. It's the palace of the Ten Thousand Demon Emperor, one of the four Holy Emperors. Not only is the Demon Emperor guarded by the Ten Thousand Holy Kings, but also the Ten Thousand Demon Emperors."
"Why did they bring Eva's Fate to the Phecda Temple?" asked Xi Yan with a frown.
Zi Yan shook his head. "Given my status, I don't have the right to know, but … I heard that Eva's Fate is the Fate of a Perfect God and is extremely precious. Therefore, the Demon Emperor plans to use Eva's Fate as a source of power to speed up the awakening of the God Destroying Pagoda."
"God Destroying Pagoda?"
Xi Yan already had a bad feeling. "What is the God Destroying Pagoda? Tell me!"
Zi Yan laughed bitterly. "The more I say, the more I can't turn back."
"Of course you can't turn back. Tell me."
"The God Destroying Pagoda is the number one divine weapon in the Demon Realm. It is said to be able to destroy gods and Buddhas. It is extremely powerful and can reflect the power of the entire Demon Realm. In other words … a single attack from the God Destroying Pagoda uses the power of the entire Demon Realm. No god can go against the God Destroying Pagoda. However, the God Destroying Pagoda was destroyed in a fierce battle many years ago. The Holy Emperors of the later generations spent many years to repair the God Destroying Pagoda, but it requires an extremely vast amount of divine power to awaken the Pagoda Spirit. It is said that … the Seven Luminaries Demon Emperors will provide at least sixty percent of the power for the awakening of the God Destroying Pagoda. The remaining forty percent will depend on Eva's Fate. If that is not enough, the four Holy Emperors will think of other ways."
At this point, Zi Yan could not help but take another look at Xi Yan. "I know you. You are the Blazing Angel Xi Yan, one of the strongest people in the Western Divine Realm. You are very lucky to still have divine power. However, let me give you a piece of advice. Hurry up and leave. Don't try to go against the four Holy Emperors. You are no match for them. If you go to the Phecda Temple, you will just be walking into a trap and sacrificing yourself as a source of power for the God Destroying Pagoda."
Xi Yan frowned slightly. "Is the God Destroying Pagoda really that powerful?"
"It is more than powerful."
Zi Yan smiled faintly and said, "I heard from the ancestors of the Devil Realm that no matter if it is the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal or the ancient Buddhas, almost no one can withstand a blow from the God Destroying Tower. Even if it is the Sky Beyond Heaven, such as Pangu the Great Emperor, I am afraid that they cannot withstand a blow from the God Destroying Tower. Do you know how Theodore, the former king of the Northern Divine Realm, died? That's right, a simple attack from the God Destroying Pagoda destroyed Theodore's body and soul. Think about how powerful Theodore was back then. Who in the four Divine Realms could go against him? "
Xi Yan could not help but be stunned. She had heard of Theodore's name before. However, the ancient books only recorded that this powerful god had suddenly disappeared. Many people assumed that he had ascended to the supreme Divine Realm beyond the Heavens. However, they did not know that he had actually died!
"Alright, let me ask you one more question."
"Go ahead."
"Why do you want to tell me everything about the God Destroying Pagoda?" Xi Yan asked faintly.
Zi Yan knelt on the ground and laughed bitterly. "If I say it, you must promise not to laugh."
"Alright, go ahead."
Zi Yan coughed in a serious manner. Little stars began to twinkle in his eyes. He stared straight at Xi Yan and said, "Although I am a Demon God, I have been righteous and kind since I was born. Isn't there an old saying in the Primordial Realm of Desolation? Humans are born kind. The reason why I told you so much is because … I want to be a good person. Oh, no, I want to be a good demon!"
"Pfft!"
Xi Yan still burst into laughter.
"You said you wouldn't laugh!" Zi Yan glared.
"Alright, I won't laugh."
Xi Yan waved her hand. "Actually, I had planned to kill you and your subordinates after asking you this question. However, because of what you said, I have decided to let you go."
As she spoke, Xi Yan turned around and was already prepared to leave.
"Wait!"
Zi Yan stood up. "Lady Xi Yan, are you really going to the Phecda Temple!?"
"Yes, I have no other choice."
Xi Yan said indifferently, "Firstly, I can't let Eva die like this. Secondly, since I know the secret of the God Destroying Pagoda, I can't just stand by and watch it awaken and kill the Righteous Gods. Thirdly, since I'm here, I don't plan on going back alive."
"Eva isn't your biological sister. Why do you want to sacrifice tens of thousands of years of cultivation?"
"You don't understand. You are a demon. You don't understand friendship."
"No, I want to understand!"
Zi Yan knelt again and said, "Lady Xi Yan, if you trust me, Zi Yan, I am willing to bring you to the Phecda Temple and help you resurrect Lady Eva's spirit."
"Aren't you afraid of death?"
"Yes, but I want to be a good person. Oh, no, a good demon!"
"Do you think I will trust you?"
Zi Yan said confidently, "As you said, you have no other choice. If you trust me, you might have a chance to save Lady Eva. If you don't trust me, you will only be going to the Phecda Temple to die. You don't even know where the God Destroying Pagoda is, or where the broken sword where Lady Eva's spirit is... Furthermore, why don't you trust me? Although the demons are evil, they are not deceitful. We always do bad things to the end. We will not pretend to do bad things and then tell others that we are a good, oh, no, a good demon."
"Stop talking nonsense and go on your way!"
"Yes!" Zi Yan was overjoyed.
