“Right now, the Black Source Pearl is in my hands and you have no choice but to first believe me!” Black armor appeared on Fang Yuan, seeming very vigilant. “Moreover, I don’t trust you, so you must give me something first. Teach me the Mental Demon realm-traversing technique! Don’t tell me that it’s difficult or whatnot. Since we’re able to communicate, it must be possible for you to pass me the information!”
“Junior!”
The blood bubble face became infuriated, and shortly after, there was black boot approaching.
Smack!
Fang Yuan indifferently squashed the human face without the slightly scruple. “Ancient Netherworld… although I’m surely no match for your true body, this thing is not even comparable to a trace of your will! Do you actually think that you’re qualified to bargain with me? I won’t wait any longer and will immediately leave after counting down from five! Five… one!”
“Wait!” Ancient Netherworld’s face once again agglomerated to its original shape. “Is there anyone who counts like you? Alright… I agree to your demands!”
He had no choice but to accept since he was in an inferior position and had to admit defeat.
“The realm-traversing technique of my Mental Demon Realm first requires a realm with origin power. After that, it requires the corresponding array and hexagram stone…”
Ancient Netherworld was afraid that Fang Yuan would actually walk away and started chattering and describing the realm-traversing technique straightaway.
“Mm… Truly not bad!” Fang Yuan’s eyes lit up as he slightly inferred before confirming that this magical technique was indeed real. “There’s even a magical technique that is so ingenious, so profound… Wait, why did you stop?”
But while waiting for Ancient Netherworld to finish explaining the Mental Demon realm-traversing technique and how to go to the lower realms and prevent repulsion, he suddenly stopped talking.
“Contributing this is already the limit of my sincerity!” the blood-red face said. “If you’re still not satisfied, then immediately leave… My subordinates and descendants will ultimately find a second Black Source Pearl and come to save me.”
“Haha!” Fang Yuan laughed coldly as he directly turned around to leave.
He could see that this was indeed the bottom line of that Demon God.
However, finding a second Black Source Pearl and so on was wholly stubborn talk.
It went without saying that for such a treasure, being able to find a second one in the Spiritual Realm, if it could even be found, would take a very long time. Possibly within this period of time, the Spiritual Realm would have already refined the purple star and killed this sealed Demon God.
A glow flickered and he left the blood-red space, returning to the Bottomless Blood Abyss.
“Even if I accepted nothing and released Ancient Netherworld, I most likely wouldn’t be appreciated… After all, I’d know this just by thinking about Heavenly Consort Yun Xiang… she surely won’t say anything nice about me.”
Fang Yuan had come without an invitation and even took away the Black Source Pearl. There would be something wrong if Yun Xiang had a good impression of him!
“Therefore, I need to make use of this opportunity to extract more benefits! But there are a few problems…”
He looked at the empty space and contemplated.
“Although there’s a great amount of origin power in the purple star, it’s located within the nucleus of the star and the seal can’t be bypassed. Obtaining it will be extremely difficult!”
Obviously, if the origin power was so easy to obtain, it would have long been divided by the Demon Masters, leaving nothing for Fang Yuan.
“At this stage, I’m at an impasse!”
Fang Yuan’s smile carried an indescribable meaning.
…
“Dream Demon, you’ve finally come!”
In a region of the Bottomless Deep Abyss, the Hydra, Erag, and the Life-and-Death Storm Crow looked at Fang Yuan, who had once again turned into a giant.
“Thank you for your gifts. I no longer have doubts about the Demon Master realm,” said the giant Fang Yuan in a voice like booming thunder.
“Great, we can start planning right away!” A furtive look flashed in Erag’s eyes.
“Those Ancient Gods… I can destroy two of them alone. Caw Caw !” shouted one of the Storm Crow’s heads.
“Keep quiet. If not for my help that time, you’d have been surrounded and killed by three Ancient Gods!” the other head immediately retorted.
“Your power is also my power!”
“No! I am the oldest!”
The two crow heads argued more and more vigorously, causing Fang Yuan to suspect that they would start fighting the next moment.
“Enough!” Erag’s face was stern as many vines below her body danced violently, bits of pollen spreading out and continuously melting the bloody fog all around.
“Alright, we’re all allies! Stop quarreling!” The Hydra seemed wisest and separated the two Demon Masters.
“Hmph!” The Life Head and Death Head stared at each other. “At least, we’re still in agreement about attacking the Heaven Palace.”
“That’s great!” Erag retracted her vines and glanced at Fang Yuan. “Dream Demon, you will charge in first, before Nine Heads, and Crow and I will be reinforcements. Do you have any questions?”
“Nope!”
Fang Yuan was very clear these creatures were forcing him to prove his allegiance.
However, he had never had any sense of belonging to the Spiritual Realm. Besides, within the Heaven Palace, with that Black Dragon as his enemy, he had no dilemmas and was instead very enthusiastic.
Seeing this, an astonished look flashed in Erag’s eyes, but her smile became more gentle.
…
Above the purple star, the Heaven Palace.
“Battle achievements calculated!”
The obese Lord Cold Mountain awkwardly returned to the inner defenses and hurriedly went to submit his mission.
“Three Heaven Immortal rank demon cores is three hundred battle achievements!”
On the white jade plaza, the person calculating battle achievements was an Ancient God specially dispatched by the Heavenly Court. His expressions and actions were meticulous, adhering strictly to the rules.
” Sigh… ” Seeing his battle achievements that had yet to reach one thousand and his position near the bottom on the board, Lord Cold Mountain shook his head and sighed. “If this goes on, when will I be able to accumulate enough achievements to return to the Heavenly Court? Do I really need to endure this for thirty years? However, with the perilous dangers on the Mental Demon Battlefield, I might not be able to live for another three years!”
Thinking of when he had encountered that huge demonic bat army during his first trip, Hai Fu trembled violently.
“That God Black Dragon was obviously intentionally targeting Lord Mountain River and wanted to kill him… However, it was truly difficult to tell during the situation at that time… But now, that God’s face is very exciting to see. After all, the eternal altar lamp in Lord Mountain River’s palace is still lit!”
The Heaven Palace had its own uniqueness; the palace that every God resided in would have an eternal altar lamp lit up inside.
Unless this God died, or perhaps left the Mental Demon Battlefield, this lamp would be eternally lit.
After returning last time, Lord Cold Mountain had specially gone to observe Fang Yuan’s eternal altar lamp and saw it in perfect condition. Shortly after, he had some ideas.
Of course, this contrasted with Black Dragon’s pitch-black face. His mood was very poor these days, and all the Gods of the Vast Heaven Division were very careful and very afraid of being on his bad side.
“However, the midst of the Mental Demon Battlefield is also very dangerous. This is especially so, as there are no other areas to supplement magical strength, and people can only use the pills they carried along to replenish and continue soldiering on…” Hai Fu mumbled and looked outside the Heaven Palace. “The accumulation of this Lord Mountain River is somewhat unbelievable. He could actually survive for so long in the battlefield, and there’s clearly some destiny on him. Should I help him?”
Gods were all astute. If he had not found some benefits he could take advantage of, why would he try getting closer to Fang Yuan?
At this moment, with his astounding eyesight, he discovered a few black dots in the horizon without any divine light accompanying.
“Is it those demons again?”
Regarding this, Hai Fu was indifferent. He had already seen the defenses of the Heaven Palace Without even mentioning the various restrictions and arrays, the Ancient Gods who had been guarding for years were sufficient to ensure the security here.
Of course, there was no lack of demons coming to create trouble. These sporadic creatures did not even need the Gods to interfere, the external defenses being sufficient to make them suffer severe injuries.
Unless it was an actual attack by an army of demons, the Heaven Palace was as stable as a mountain.
“Huh? Something’s wrong…”
Suddenly, Hai Fu’s mouth opened wide and his eyes were about to pop out.
After seeing it clearly, he quickly turned around to run far away.
“Damn… That Lord Mountain River is truly capable, actually surviving until now… But it doesn’t matter, as there are exactly thirty years. Could he actually tarry in the wilds for thirty years? Hehe… Much less thirty years, even in three months, I can immediately allege that he’d descend into the demonic path!”
On the plaza, Black Dragon was similarly staring at the battle achievement board.
Suddenly, he was shocked by the ruckus. “There are demons attacking! Everyone, get ready!”
“Hmm?” Black Dragon looked toward the direction of the warning and indeed saw a few black dots. “Just a few? They’re courting death…”
Although he felt that they were somewhat out of the ordinary, as an Ancient God and the leader of a military division, he naturally could not shirk like the Gods under his command and took the initiative to fly and meet the battle head-on.
“Demons, you still dare act wildly… eh…”
Black Dragon flew halfway up before his loud voice suddenly halted mid-sentence, as if he was a duck being strangled.
The black dot became larger and larger, at last transforming into a towering giant.
Roar! Roar!
The giant descended from the air and threw a punch.
Kaboom!
Just like a dam bursting its banks and a mountain flood erupting…
A horrifying aura abruptly swept the entire scene.
“This is… Demon Master?!”
Black Dragon’s eyes popped out. He saw the giant punch, its black fist resembling a mountain, smacking onto the colorful restrictions.
Crack! Crack!
In the air, several cracks spread, and instantly, the outer arrays guarding the entire Heaven Palace broke.
“I heard that a Demon Master from the Mental Demon Realm and an Ancient God are the same rank, but their strength is more powerful and they have all kinds of horrifying and strange characteristics…”
Ancient God Black Dragon was slightly nervous.
At the moment, he saw that giant’s hands open up as a large area of hazy, white fog descended, carrying an immense hypnosis power.
“A mere illusion technique?”
A layer of dark green dragon scales appeared on its body and dispelled all interference. The corner of his mouth slightly arched upward, but the next instant, he saw in great astonishment that many Marquis Gods inside the Heaven Palace had blank looks as they collapsed into sleep.
“Ignoring the remaining restrictions and directly dazzling the Heaven Immortals?”
Black Dragon was shocked, but he soon saw the giant roar as it clenched its five fingers into a fist smashing toward him.
“Oh no!”
