In a certain location within the Desolate Mountains, the space here seemed to split apart as a primordial aura permeated the area, so powerful that it was inconceivable.
The gazes of countless demons gleamed with sharpness as they turned over while their bodies trembled. Countless lower-level demons were shaking as they prostrated themselves. A deep reverence could be seen in their eyes as well as hints of fear. It was like the thing that would be happening next will definitely be an extremely terrifying one.
In that location, cracks began to appear in the sky as the earth split apart, forming long lines of fissures that continuously extended outwards. In the depths of the cracks in space, a light from the primordial times could be seen and this light grew increasingly resplendent as the rumbling in the area grew more severe.
At this moment, countless ancient greater demons gathered together, all of them reverting back to their true forms. One among them was a greater demon that had nine heads, coupled with pairs of terrifyingly baleful eyes while exuding a tyrannical aura. Right now, his body was gleaming with golden light and his aura grew increasingly fearsome that no other demons in his surroundings dared to match his gaze. Strangely enough, on the shoulder of this nine-headed greater demon, a snow-white figure of a little demon could be seen. The eyes of this little demon gleamed with curiosity as it contemplated everything that was happening while simultaneously sending out signals telepathically to someone.
Beside this little fellow, there actually was another vermillion bird that was red in color. Because the size of the nine-headed greater demon was too large, akin to a mountain, making it so that the little fellow and the vermillion bird seemed extremely small and inconsequential, to the point where they were almost disregarded by others. Such a combination was truly very strange to behold.
“Senior, does the Demongod Mountain really exist?” The childish-sounding voice of Little Rascal rang out, he was speaking to that gargantuan nine-headed greater demon.
“Naturally. Baizes are capable of prophecies as well. They are able to pry through the veil of heavenly fate briefly and the Baize among us has already predicted that there would be an upheaval in our Desolate Mountains as well as the fact that the Demongod Mountain would reappear. Many kinds of terrifying supreme greater demons would appear, causing the strength of our Desolate Ten Thousand Mountain Range to rise up to another level.” That greater demon spoke.
Little Rascal blinked his eyes, “So this is the true Demongod Mountain? How shocking, are there any treasures within? What happens if the humans can get them too?”
“What humans? This Demongod Mountain is the sacred place of our Desolate Ten Thousand Mountain Range and only appears once every countless number of years passed. Once it appeared, huge changes would appear in the world and there would be a commotion affecting the entire Desolate Mountains. What’s the use for humans to come here? They would only act to spoil the prestige of our sacred mountain. Hence, I really hope those fellows out there can expel humanity from Skybreak City.”
“Those humans are very cunning and there are many powerful experts among them. It isn’t going to be easy to make them depart.” The eyes of Little Rascal flickered.
“Mhm, you are right. Humans are cunning and greedy by nature and they would definitely covet the sacred Demongod Mountain if they learned of it. It’s not so easy to expel them but we have to try. So what even if they tried to attack us? If they really dare to enter the Desolate Mountains, we will make this place their burial grounds, they can only come and cannot leave. In the future, we will sweep through the immortal realms, replacing humans as the kings of this world and make everywhere become an extension of our Desolate Ten Thousand Mountain Range.” The words of this greater demon were extremely tyrannical. But naturally, he had the strength to back it up.
“Is that so? What if some humans have extremely powerful demonic bloodlines? Will it be useful for them if they ascend the Demongod Mountain?” Little Rascal murmured. He didn’t give a damn how strong the demon races of the Desolate Mountains would be. What does that have to do with him? Right now, he wanted to see what sort of benefits he and Qin Wentian would be able to get. However, there should be no mistakes in following this senior.
After all, both him and this senior nine-headed demon belonged to the same race, and their race was about to be extinct soon in the immortal realms. There was no help regarding that, all the ancient demonic races are extremely rare and are all dying out.
“Little fellow, what are you thinking about? There’s no need for you to care about the things with regards to humanity. This time, you should just think of how you can benefit yourselves. It’s rare for the Demongod Mountain to appear and everytime it does, powerful demongod-level characters would definitely be born. This is a chance for our Desolate Mountains to rise up. You have a supreme-graded bloodline at the very pinnacle and in the future, if you become a demongod, you will definitely head to the other realms and seek out more of our kind, reinstating our past glory.” The greater demon’s voice sounded extremely old and ancient. From this, one could tell how long this nine-headed greater demon had lived for.
“Oh.” Little Rascal replied. However, he still seemed to be somewhat distracted. Up ahead, the light grew more and more intense. In the cracking void up ahead, the shape of a mountain inside the void started to appear.
“Is that the legendary mountain?” Little Rascal mumbled.
“Mhm, the prophecy made by the Baize was right. With the appearance of god mountain, the sacred land of our Desolate Mountains appeared. From now on, an era of demons will unfold and we will be the hegemons of this entire realm.”
“ROAR!” Roars of the countless demonic beasts echoed out loud as they stared at the incoming Demongod Mountain. They prostrated themselves before the sight of it. This was a legend of their Desolate Mountains, the coming of the sacred land which only appears once every countless years.
However, the Demongod Mountain had not formed completely, it was still somewhat illusory and in the midst of transforming, radiating an ancient and mysterious aura. From the crack in the void, one could see that this god mountain seemed to extend unendingly into the distance, appearing boundlessly vast. Although it appeared within reach, it was very far away. Everyone understood how mysterious this Demongod Mountain was.
When the commotion here began, the entire Desolate Mountain Range started trembling as mountain peaks crumbled apart. On the other hand, the filaments of light from the crack in void began to extend outwards, like a spiderweb, covering the entire mountain range.
At the connecting point between the external boundary of the Desolate Mountains and the immortal realms, outside Skybreak City, the demons and humans in combat here were all shocked. They could sense the commotion happening in the depths of the Desolate Mountain and although their vision was blocked, they could still tell that something terrifying was happening within.
The expressions of many human experts changed, especially for those immortal emperors. Their countenances were all extremely heavy while as for those demons, they actually had a look of impatience on their faces, they wanted to be there to see the descent of the Demongod Mountain too. They were cursing silently at their own members within the mountains. In truth, the demons here weren’t the core experts of their respective races. Their true cores were all within the mountains, waiting for the appearance of the Demongod Mountain. These demons were just elites sent here to accomplish their mission.
Right now, the commotion shook the entire area. These demons no longer had any patience to stay here and their hearts were already back in the depths of the Desolate Mountains.
“What is going on exactly within the Desolate Mountains?” An immortal emperor spoke sharply, he finally realized that whatever was happening, was a thing greater than what they had previously imagined. The eyes of these demons here were all flickering, they no longer seemed to be in the mood for combat.
The immortal emperors could all faintly sense that these demons were merely sent here to delay them. It would be for the best if these demons can make them retreat but it was fine if they couldn’t.
“What concern is it to you guys of the immortal realms? Humans have no right to interfere with the happenings of our Desolate Mountains. Combat has yet to be concluded. If you guys still refuse to retreat from Skybreak City, my demonic races will definitely send troops and invade the human world.” The Baize, who was a demon empress, coldly spoke. She was the only character that could remain calm. The other demons were already extremely agitated, each wanting to head back to the depths of the Desolate Mountains.
A legend coming true, the appearance of the Demongod Mountain would herald a new era for the demons. Who knows, the demons might be the ones uniting the entire immortal realms under them, becoming the hegemon of this world.
“BOOM!” A few rays of light shot out. They actually ignored the demons and directly rushed into the depths of the Desolate Mountains. These rays of light were immortal emperors speeding through the air, their speed was inconceivably quick and were emperors that had been hiding in the shadows. When they sensed the level of commotion, they could no longer remain calm and had to see what was happening with their own eyes.
Qin Wentian’s eyes turned sharp, flickering with the light of truth as he stared at the demons. He could sense that they no longer had the will to fight and only wanted to leave.
In addition to the continuous signals Little Rascal was sending him, he naturally understood that a thing of immense importance had definitely happened in the depths of the Desolate Mountains.
“A huge change will soon occur in the Desolate Mountains, what’s the point of you guys remaining here to block us? The truly powerful human emperors have already rushed into your Desolate Mountains. It’s fine with us if you don’t want to block them. But if you demons miss this chance, you would no longer have any chance to rise up and would be trampled to death by the other races.”
Qin Wentian could understand the inner feelings of these demons. Hence, he opened his mouth and tried to agitate them. Although the demons also understood Qin Wentian’s intent, their hearts truly weren’t able to remain calm.
“Are you all really willing to be sent here as an obstacle to block us? For those demons who sent you all here, they are now all waiting to reap the benefits.” Qin Wentian continued to probe. And as expected, the faces of these demons all changed, filled with reluctance. How proud were these greater demons? Although they could return after they accomplished their mission, it was a fact that these humans are tough to deal with. They could wait no longer and wanted to return to see the legendary sacred land appearing within their Desolate Mountains.
The Baize empress glanced at the demons in her surrounding as she sighed in her heart. She then gave the command, “Retreat.”
As the sound of her voice faded, all the greater demons frenziedly retreated, moving at the speed of lightning as though they were fleeing for their lives. All of them vanished in an instant.
“Why are these demons in such a hurry? What is happening exactly?” Some humans exclaimed in shock.
“Let’s go and take a look.” The human experts all sped forward, entering the Desolate Mountains as well. As they proceeded on, they saw that in an extremely faraway place, a majestic mountain seemed to be descending from cracks in the air. The divine light from this mountain seemed to cover the entire region, radiating a saint-like holy aura.
“Those demons who kept blocking us, was it because of the descent of this mountain?” The hearts of the humans trembled as they stared at this scene. Great waves rocked their hearts as they continued speeding ahead.
“Demongod Mountain? Is that the number one legend of the Desolate Ten Thousand Mountain Range?” Someone exclaimed. “My heavens, seems like a brand new era is about to unfold for the demons. Our immortal realms might be in for it soon.”
