"Old Ancestor!"
The Sky Fall Demon Emperor's face paled. With a flick of his wrist, a sword appeared in his hand.
It was the other Immortal artifact that the Demon Emperor wielded, the Demon Emperor Sword!
Demonic Ki flowed along the blade of the sword, emanating a unique energy. Inscriptions began to slowly materialize in the air, shrouding the entire Royal City within it. Sensing the energy emanating from the sword, countless Pseudo Immortal realm demons immediately flew over. Their powerful auras caused even the surrounding space to tremble a little.
"My three masters, we have to leave now! Otherwise, it'll be too late!"
Demon King Blissful bellowed. Sensing the power that had appeared in the surroundings to surround them, he couldn't care less about his shock anymore.
The strength of the three beasts was incomparably formidable, but this was the lair of the Giant Demons, the source of the river. For 10,000 years, they had obtained countless treasures. If they were to engage in a life or death struggle, the three of them might be able to rely on their formidable defenses to survive. But, he was only an ordinary demon king and he was also severely wounded. He would undoubtedly die!
"Alright!" The Three Beasts knew that they had to listen to Old Ancestor Qiong Yuan, so they did not say anything else. The tortoise enlarged once more and grabbed the twitching Old Ancestor Qiong Yuan.
"Sit on my back!"
Lao Mian roared.
Not daring to hesitate, Dahei and Xiaowu flew over together.
"Let's go!"
As he growled, a ferocious look appeared in Old Slow's eyes. His sluggish body was suddenly covered in lightning, and with one swift move, he charged straight into the hall.
He was so fast that it was impossible to see him with the naked eye.
Boom!
Countless runes were torn apart by the lightning. The Demon Emperor Palace, which had stood for ten thousand years, collapsed under the impact of the tortoise shell.
"How powerful …"
Seeing how the tortoise was able to shatter such a formidable barrier with ease, the Demon King of Bliss couldn't help but lament. This wasn't the end yet. Taken aback, he exclaimed, "Wait a moment, I haven't gone up yet …"
I haven't gone up yet, and you're leaving without even looking at me? Do you not want me anymore?
"Where do you think you're going?"
Meanwhile, the Sky Fall Devil Emperor felt like he was about to go crazy. Ignoring the fight, he roared and shot after the turtle.
While in the air, Xiao Chen raised the Demonic Imperial Sword. Extremely dense Demonic Qi surged out like a thunderbolt. Immediately, a huge sword light fifty kilometers long gathered above the sword and hacked down on the tortoise shell.
Huala!
The space was torn apart like a piece of paper.
Boom!
A huge explosion sounded out as the sword light landed on the lightning surrounding the tortoise. Shockwaves rolled out, and the huge impact caused one-third of the buildings in the Demon Imperial City to collapse. Countless ordinary Giant Demons were crushed to death.
It could be said that the losses this time were more than ten wars with the human race!
As the shockwave dissipated, the Sky Fall Demon Emperor immediately took a look at the tortoise shell. Even the lightning surrounding it was undamaged, as if his brilliant slash had been completely ineffective!
"I don't believe that it can't be broken!"
With bloodshot eyes, the Sky Fall Demon Emperor clenched his teeth and spat out a mouthful of blood onto the Demon Emperor Sword.
"Everyone, please gather your strength on me!"
With a loud roar, the Demon Emperor Sword's blood burst into flames. Upon hearing Zhang Xuan's command, the Otherworldly Demons swiftly gathered their strength along the formation in the sky and channeled it toward Zhang Xuan.
This was a special secret art of the Demon Race that had similar effects to the Forbidden Stone. It could only be used in the Demon Imperial City, and it was for this reason that humans did not dare to cross the boundary.
Hong long long!
With the augmentation of the power of the Giant Demons, the light emanating from the sword grew even brighter. From a radius of 50 kilometers, it grew to a radius of 500 kilometers. Even before it was swung, the space that it came into contact with began to shatter.
The Demon Emperor Sword was not only an Immortal artifact, but it also contained the strength of countless ancestors of the Giant Demons. As long as one possessed the corresponding bloodline, one would be able to fuse their strength unconditionally.
Kacha! Kacha!
In just half a breath, the Sky Fall Demon Emperor's aura had reached its limit. Its might had exceeded the limits of what the Dry Origin Continent could withstand. Countless lightning bolts gathered at a visible rate, forming the Realm Tribulation once more.
At this moment, the Sky Fall Demon Emperor, who had fused with the Demon Emperor Sword, was no weaker than a True Immortal.
How terrifying!
"Die!"
With an invincible strength that surpassed his own, the Sky Fall Demon Emperor's eyes shone with confidence. He roared once more, and the sword light descended.
Si la!
Space was torn apart once more. The lightning barrier around the old tortoise could no longer hold back the Sky Fall Demon Emperor, and a huge sword light descended on Donkey and the parrot.
"How terrifying …"
The Great Demon of Bliss, who had just flown out of the shattered palace, saw this scene. The corners of his mouth twitched, and his body turned cold.
That sword contained the power of the Sky Fall Demon Emperor and countless Giant Devils. Even a perfect spiritual item would be destroyed in the blink of an eye if it came into contact with it.
Even with the Soulbrand Mirror, he could not withstand it and died on the spot.
This was no longer a cultivation base that a Pseudo Immortal cultivator could possess.
As expected of the Demon Emperor, the strongest expert of the Giant Demons. It was simply too terrifying.
"They'll be fine, right?"
Sensing this power, there was no way to dodge it. As it slashed down on the donkey, Bliss's eyes were filled with worry.
Although these three were unreliable and had escaped without pulling him along, if they were really killed, he would definitely die. There was no way he could escape.
"Son, son!"
Under his worried gaze, the donkey roared and stood in front of the parrot, facing the sword light head-on.
The brilliant sword light landed on the donkey's back, and an ear-piercing explosion was heard. The ground shook violently as if there was an earthquake with a magnitude of 10 or above.
The sword light stopped, and all the energy dissipated.
The Great Demon of Bliss hurriedly looked over and saw Dahei still standing on the spot. His body was unharmed, and even his fur was not damaged.
Hu!
While he was shocked speechless, a strand of donkey hair fell and danced in the wind.
"My hair …"
Donkey, who was on the back of the tortoise, saw a strand of hair being cut off. He was so angry that his lips trembled.
In contrast to his anger, the surroundings were silent. The Giant Demons looked as if they had seen a ghost.
The Demon Emperor had gathered the Demonic Energy of countless Giant Demons and used the power of an Immortal Artifact to strike the donkey's back. In the end … only a strand of hair was cut off!
What the heck …
The Great Demon of Bliss also widened his eyes in shock, unable to say a word.
The Three Beasts had not used their full strength when they were beating him up, causing him to think that they were on par with him. In the end, it turned out that the other party was just toying with him!
If they had really made a move, he would have died with a stomp of his hoof. The Soul Searing Mirror and the indestructible body were nothing more than decorations!
"Impossible, this is impossible …"
The Sky Fall Demon Emperor's hands trembled so much that he could barely hold onto the Demonic Emperor Sword.
The earlier strike had drained all of the Giant Demons' reserves, but all it had done was cut off a strand of hair …
Was there really such a huge gap between them?
"Forget about the hair, let's go!"
The Old Tortoise harrumphed coldly. He picked up his pace, and in the blink of an eye, he was already right before the seal of the Royal City.
Xiong xiong!
The parrot opened its beak, and flames spewed out, burning a huge hole in the seal. In the next moment, the two of them and the Three Beasts were already outside the Royal City.
"What the heck …"
Seeing that the Three Beasts really had no intention of waiting for him, Bliss furiously chased after them.
The Sky Fall Demon Emperor and the countless Giant Demons did not seem to have seen him at all.
"…"
The Great Demon of Bliss was speechless. It was hard to tell whether he should be happy or frustrated.
It was not that the crowd did not notice it, but that they were still immersed in the shock from earlier.
Of course, more importantly, they did not think that he was important at all. If they caught the black tortoise and the others, he would surely die! If they failed to catch them, they would not be able to stop them even if they rushed back to save them!
Instead of wasting their time, they might as well pretend that they did not see anything …
"Sigh!"
With a sigh, Bliss gritted his teeth and gave chase.
Eight thousand years ago, regardless of whether it was the head of the Elder Council or the number one expert of the current era, anyone who dared to underestimate him would surely die. Yet, there was not even a single person looking at him … It was as if he did not exist at all. Just the thought of it left him feeling stifled.
However, as long as he could escape with his life, everything else was trivial.
It did not take long for him to escape from the Demon Imperial City.
At this moment, the black tortoise was still waiting for him. Only then did Bliss heave a sigh of relief. He landed on the black tortoise's back and turned around with a smile. "Your Majesty Sky Fall, if you want your Old Ancestor Qiongyuan to live, please bring someone over to exchange for him. Otherwise, not only will we have to collect his corpse, we'll also come to the Demon Imperial City every day to cause trouble …"
As soon as he finished speaking, the black tortoise's massive figure streaked across the sky and disappeared without a trace.
"…"
The Sky Fall Demon Emperor's body turned cold.
Where did these three fellows come from?
"Your Majesty, what's going on? Who are they, and who is the person who wants them? "
The Commander of the Demon Emperor Guards asked with a grim expression. The other Giant Demons were also puzzled.
Those three fellows were simply too powerful. If they were allowed to cause trouble every day, even if the Demon Imperial City was impregnable, it would not be able to hold on for long.
"I don't know either …" the Sky Fall Demon Emperor shook his head.
The Sky Fall Demon Emperor shook his head and instructed, "Have you investigated the identity of the person who came to cause trouble two hours ago?"
"Your Majesty, we have. It's Gu Ling 'er, the direct disciple of Hall Master Gu Yunqiu!" the Commander replied.
"Her?" the Demon Emperor frowned.
They had failed to capture the girl. Why would the Three Beasts risk their lives to save her, even going as far as to kidnap the Old Ancestor?
"Find out where Gu Ling 'er is right now. Capture her at all costs … "the Demon Emperor said through gritted teeth.
Without the girl, the Old Ancestor would definitely be killed.
The Giant Demons had just produced a True Immortal, and if he was killed, his plans of conquering the world and wiping out the human race would become a joke.
"Yes …" the Commander turned around and left.
"The rest of you, repair the formation and the damaged Royal City. Calculate the number of casualties and losses …"
After making all the arrangements, the Demon Emperor made a grabbing motion, and the donkey hair that he had severed earlier appeared in his hand.
Hu!
The Demon Emperor Sword appeared in his hand once more.
"Elemental Slash, Sky Piercing Slash, Demonic Sky Piercing Slash, Heaven Tier pinnacle battle technique, Cloudsoar Sword Art …"
The sword turned into streaks of sword qi that slashed down on the donkey hair, causing cracks to appear in the surrounding space.
A few minutes later …
There was no change to the black hair at all. It was as if his all-out attack was completely ineffective.
"I don't believe it …" With reddened eyes, the Demon Emperor flicked his finger, and a jade token exploded in midair.
It was a flame talisman from the Celestial World!
Scorching flames burned, and a black hole appeared in the surrounding space. However, there was still no change to the donkey hair.
Slashing with a sword, burning with fire, soaking in acid … Soon, the Demon Emperor had used more than a dozen methods. Even if it was an Immortal-tier artifact, the donkey hair was completely fine.
"Even a single strand of hair is so powerful … Just how powerful am I?"
The Demon Emperor clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth.
It was fortunate that he had managed to escape. Otherwise, the entire Demon Emperor City would have been wiped out.
He could only hope that the other party was not a human. Otherwise, there would be no need to fight at all.
…
Hu!
Tens of thousands of li away from Demon Emperor City, a massive tortoise suddenly appeared above the mountain range.
"We're safe …"
The Great Demon of Bliss muttered as he leaped down from the tortoise's back. He stared at the twitching Old Ancestor Qiong Yuan in disbelief.
That was a Heavenly True Immortal! Even though he had just made a breakthrough, he should have been able to take on three to five Pseudo Immortals with ease. Yet, such an expert was actually reduced to such a state with a single hoof!
"Wake that fellow up. Let's see if we can find out where our master is …" the parrot said.
The reason they had made a move on Old Ancestor Qiong Yuan was because he had 'eaten' their master's flesh. Only by capturing him would they be able to find out where their master was imprisoned.
Not daring to waste any time, The Great Demon of Bliss channeled a surge of pure demonic energy into Old Ancestor Qiong Yuan's body. A moment later, the twitching Old Ancestor Qiong Yuan finally woke up. Just as he was about to flee, a bolt of lightning struck him.
Tzzz!
Old Ancestor Qiong Yuan's body went limp as his strength dissipated.
"Speak! Where did you imprison our master?" the parrot glared at Old Ancestor Qiong Yuan.
"Master?" Old Ancestor Qiong Yuan's eyes reddened. "Who is he?"
"He's unwilling to speak. Brother Blackie, beat him up!" the parrot said.
"Got it!" Dahei nodded and stomped his hoof on Old Ancestor Qiong Yuan.
"…" Old Ancestor Qiong Yuan.
Even if you want to ask me something, shouldn't you at least let me know who you're looking for? This is the first time I've met you. Who the f * ck knows who your master is?
The Great Demon of Bliss could not help but say when he saw Old Ancestor Qiong Yuan spasming and vomiting blood, "I think it's better to ask him before kicking him …"
Who would beat someone up without saying anything?
It seemed like … he had gone through the same thing before!
A moment later, Old Ancestor Qiong Yuan woke up again. The Great Demon of Bliss walked up to him and said, "My grandfather, who is their master, Su Yin, was captured by you, right? Where is he imprisoned? "
“???”
Old Ancestor Qiong Yuan's face turned pale as his body trembled. "Would you believe me if I said that I've never heard of him before?"
"See, he won't admit it at all. I have an idea that we can try. Xiao Wu, burn him for a while …" the turtle said.
"Sure thing!" the parrot said.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!
One of Old Ancestor Qiong Yuan's legs began to emit the aroma of meat.
"…"
Old Ancestor Qiong Yuan's eyes reddened.
I'm a f * cking True Immortal … I'm the strongest person in the Spirit Abyss Realm in the past ten thousand years!
Why does it feel like I'm worse than a Juxi realm cultivator?
"Sigh!"
The Great Demon of Bliss sighed when he saw that the Three Beasts were not allowing him to speak at all. They were either barbecuing him, lighting him up, or kicking him.
Most likely, he wouldn't be able to hold on for too long …
…
"Vice Hall Master Gu, we just received news that someone has wreaked havoc in the Demon Imperial Palace. Not only did they destroy the palace, they even broke through the defenses of the Demon Imperial City. Furthermore … it seems like the True Immortal who just became a True Immortal has been captured as well!"
On the city walls, Shen Moping revealed the news that he had just received with a strange look on his face.
"The Demon Imperial City has been in the Demon Imperial City for ten thousand years, and there are countless treasures buried there. Even True Immortals who don't have Immortal Artifacts would have a hard time escaping from the city … Not only did someone barge in and wreak havoc, they even captured a True Immortal …"
Gu Yunqiu and the others stared at one another, doubting whether what they had just heard was real or not.
Knowing what they were thinking, Shen Moping explained, "This is the news from the third spy. The first two reports are identical … If I'm not mistaken, it should be true!"
"Who did it?"
After a long period of silence, Gu Yunqiu asked.
"The battle happened too quickly and intensely, so they didn't manage to get a clear look. All they know is that it was a massive figure surrounded by lightning, but they aren't too sure about anything else …"
Shen Moping explained. "What we can be sure of is that … it has something to do with the person who sold the donkey!"
Everything that had happened previously had taken place within the Demon Imperial Palace, and due to the restrictions placed on it, no one dared to look into the matter. By the time the battle left the Demon Imperial Palace, there was lightning everywhere, making it even harder to see what was going on.
As such, despite the huge commotion earlier, the humans were unable to obtain any useful information.
"Sold the donkey?"
Gu Yunqiu fell silent.
The entrance of this expert … was way too unique!
"No matter who it is, to be able to wreak havoc in the Demon Imperial Palace means that he's a friend and not an enemy. This is a good thing for us …" an elder said.
"Even if he's not a friend, with this commotion, the Giant Devil Tribe's attack on us will be delayed!"
"That's right. They can't even fend for themselves now, so they probably won't have the time to think about it …"
Everyone nodded in unison.
Initially, they were terrified that someone from the Devil Tribe had broken through to the True Immortal Realm. With this, the pressure on them lessened significantly.
"Also, the Sky Fall Demon Emperor has just given the order to capture someone at all costs …" Shen Moping said as he looked at the jade talisman in his hand.
"Who is it?" Gu Yunqiu's eyes lit up. "Perhaps this person has something to do with what happened earlier! As long as we find him, we'll be able to understand what happened. "
"The person they want to capture is … Miss Ling 'er!" Shen Moping said.
"…" Gu Yunqiu was stunned. Gu Ling 'er's eyes widened as well.
Capture me at all costs for what? All I did was cause a commotion, and I was almost killed. I didn't do anything else …
Su Yin, who was in the crowd, heard the conversation clearly, and his expression turned grave.
It seemed like there were quite a number of experts in the human race. Otherwise, they wouldn't have caused such a huge commotion … It seemed like he had to keep a low profile in the future. After all, he was only at the second level of the Void Immortal Realm. He was too weak and not worth mentioning!
Previously, he was still thinking about telling them about the matter of refining the Seal Stone, but now that he thought about it, it was better to wait.
A man's wealth was his own ruin!
He had to wait until he was strong enough to protect himself. Otherwise, what if someone came to rob him? In Decimating Abyss City, with the Seal Stone, he did not fear anyone. He was not afraid even if a True Immortal came. However, it was not so safe outside.
…
Immortal Subduing Sect, forbidden area.
Not long after Dahei and the others entered the tomb, many Remnant Wills appeared again.
"Su Xiuyi, why did you let them go?"
Everyone turned to look at one of the Remnant Consciousnesses in confusion.
It was the Needle Saint, Su Xiuyi!
"It's not like we don't know that kid has gone to the Spirit Abyss Main World … We can take care of them if we send them over!"
The old man called Su Xiuyi said with a grave expression. "Moreover, if I'm not mistaken, the guardians of the Celestial World must have sensed something amiss. I'm afraid … they'll summon the tomb guardians!"
"Tomb guardians?"
The Remnant Wills' expressions turned grim. "Once those fellows appear, the human race will face a calamity!"
"They were the ones who caused the disappearance of the spirit vein ten thousand years ago. We nurtured Little Xuanzi and used all of our means in exchange for a sliver of hope. If those people appear again, we won't be able to stand against them!"
"There's nothing we can do about it. We're all Remnant Wills, and we can't do anything to help. We can only rely on Little Su Yin!"
"His body has been tempered, so it shouldn't be a problem for him to meet the tomb guardians. What I'm afraid of is that those fellows will report this matter to their superiors. Once those people hear about it, we'll be in real danger! Even if Little Su Yin can fuse his cultivation techniques together, he hasn't grown to the point where he can stand against them yet! "
"Don't worry, the realms aren't connected yet, so it shouldn't be that soon … As long as Little Su Yin keeps a low profile and doesn't attract too much attention, it'll be fine!"
"Let's hope that he can do it …"
A moment later, the Remnant Wills disappeared once more.
