Bang. Yu Sheng stepped forward. His demonic might filled the skies and was extremely terrifying. He stared at the demonic cultivator who was speaking. He said, “Are you telling me how to do things?”
The demonic cultivator was also not an ordinary figure. He was one of the direct disciples of the Devil Emperor and had powerful cultivation. However, when he sensed the terrifying demonic might Yu Sheng emanated, he actually felt afraid. Yu Sheng’s eyes kept staring at him. The next moment, the demonic cultivator felt as though the silhouette before him was that of a demon god. He felt like he wanted to surrender.
“Let it go,” said Blood Raiment as she walked out, attempting to become a mediator.
However, Yu Sheng did not look at her and kept advancing. His overbearing pressure enveloped the other party as he said, “In Devil Imperial Palace, ability speaks for everything. Since you question my decision, then defeat me.”
As Yu Sheng said this, he charged forward. The other party immediately sensed a peerless demonic figure appear. Yu Sheng seemed to become a demon god that forced the demons to submit to him. When he punched out, the space trembled violently. The surrounding cultivators of Devil Imperial Palace frantically made way for him.
The demonic cultivator took out a demonic saber and slashed out. However, his slash shattered under the punch of the demon god. The domineering demonic punch landed directly on the other party. There was a loud rumble, and the demonic cultivator’s internal organs seemed to be crushed as he was sent flying out. He then fell to the ground.
When the surrounding cultivators saw this scene, many of them were shocked. Yu Sheng’s ability was already considered top tier in Devil Imperial Palace. Very few people could defeat him. The speed of his growth was astonishing.
The attitude of the Devil Emperor towards Yu Sheng already faintly hinted that he intended to hand the Devil World over to the latter. Their trip here to the tomb of the gods was a mission. It was most likely a trial.
Many demonic cultivators had objections regarding Yu Sheng’s attitude towards Ye Futian. He had shown partiality for the latter. However, Ye Futian had also been a guest in Devil Imperial Palace, and the Devil Emperor had met with him. Hence, they had not said anything.
“Seeing that you have cultivated in Devil Imperial Palace, I will spare you this time. If you wish to question me again, you’d better be able to defeat me,” warned Yu Sheng as he swept a glance at the heavily injured demonic cultivator.
“Do not forget our goal for this trip. Go inside,” said Yan Guiyi. Yu Sheng did not say anything. Yan Guiyi headed over towards the temple of House Karura ahead, and the cultivators of Devil Imperial Palace followed behind him.
“Let’s go in and take a look around,” Yu Sheng said to Ye Futian and his group.
“You can go about your own business. We will have a look around ourselves,” Ye Futian told Yu Sheng. “The teachings of the ancestors of the Devil World are what is most important.”
Yu Sheng’s expression was serious. He then nodded his head and followed the cultivators of Devil Imperial Palace into the temple.
“Let’s go take a look,” said Ye Futian. His group advanced. The towering temple of House Karura was majestic. Divine walls were erected all around. The space inside was very large. Even though they were shattered and only a few dilapidated walls remained, their glory in their heyday could still be faintly felt.
These divine walls were not forged from ordinary material. Even after such a frightening divine war back then, they were not destroyed and were left as ruins. Their hardness was apparent.
“They are so tall,” Fang Cun said in a low voice to the side. These divine walls were exceptionally tall. Most of them were shattered. They most likely used to be part of glorious demon castles. The terrain grew higher and higher. A terrifying aura emanated from high above up ahead. Spiritual will could not invade that space.
“Look at the divine wall,” someone said. Up ahead, patterns were carved on the divine wall. They appeared lifelike, as though the patterns were moving. There were many Karura figures among the carvings. It should be the will left behind by a top cultivator of House Karura from ancient times.
Lord Chen speculated, “This place should be the core region of the temple. The outer areas are most likely already ruins, so we did not see them.”
Ye Futian looked at the divine wall. In his mind, it was as though the divine wall came alive. The Karura figures carved on the wall moved. In his mind, the divine wall unleashed dazzling divine halos.
“It is the will left behind by a Demon Monarch. It contains the divine techniques of House Karura. This place is indeed the core region and should be the holy land of cultivation,” said Ye Futian as he agreed with Lord Chen’s speculation.
“Unfortunately, it is incomplete,” added Lord Chen as he nodded his head and looked at the surrounding region. Most of the divine walls were shattered. There should have been complete divine walls carved with a complete set of House Karura divine techniques. However, because so many had been destroyed, it was unclear how much of it could be comprehended.
The cultivators of Devil Imperial Palace kept advancing further into the temple. Clearly, their goal was not the relics of House Karura. For them, this was secondary. The relics left behind by the ancestors of the Devil World were more important to them.
They could already sense a very powerful Demonic Will up ahead.
“All of you can cultivate here for a while,” said Ye Futian. Little Condor, Jun, and the others could comprehend the divine techniques on the divine wall.
Back then, Jun had descended from Demon God Mountain. He was from Sky Demon Court, and his original body was that of a Golden-winged Giant Peng Bird. The cultivation techniques here were naturally suitable for him.
Ye Futian continued forward. Demonic might enveloped the space. After entering this space, Demonic Will and Demonic Qi circled them and were extremely frightening. This power even immediately cut off auras of the Great Path and spiritual will. Upon entering this place, everyone sensed an astonishing Demonic Will.
“What divine arm is that?” asked Ye Futian as he looked ahead. A divine arm descended from the heavens and stabbed into the ground. It seemed like a divine ruler that pinned the ground below. Powerful law of the Great Path was carved into it.
There was a strange shift in Ye Futian’s Life Spirit right then. This did not happen often. However, he discovered that it was caused by the appearance of a divine item each time it occurred.
This made Ye Futian grow more and more curious. How did he get this Life Spirit?
Who gave birth to him?
“That is…” someone said.
They could only see clearly once they got inside. The divine ruler from the sky that was stabbed into the ground had pinned down a terrifying godly figure. It was the figure of a demon god. The divine ruler forged a region of absolute law power, seemingly sealing away the demon god figure.
However, even so, from the demon god figure, terrifying Demonic Will was still emanating. After countless years, this Demonic Will had yet to dissipate. One could imagine how powerful and menacing it was.
Before the body of the demon god, there was a body that was torn to shreds. It was gigantic, but its feathers had been torn out, and its bones were smashed. It was apparent that the battle back then was tragic. Even so, the gigantic corpse similarly emanated powerful Demonic Qi. The bones of the corpse seemed to be marked with divine runes of the Great Path. For even the corpse to contain runes meant that the body had been cultivated to its extreme limit.
On both corpses, powerful wills of the Great Emperors emanated as though they belonged to two unyielding gods.
Was this the Demonic Lord and the king of House Karura of the Eight Legions? Ye Futian thought to himself. Had they both died here together?
This divine ruler did not seem to be the item of Demon Monarch Karura. It most likely belonged to an outside force. Other powerful cultivators had attacked them. In this ancient battle, the Demonic Lord might have suppressed the king of House Karura.
Ye Futian also sensed that the might of the divine ruler far exceeded what he was sensing now.
He wanted to take a look at it. However, if he truly coveted this treasure, the members of Devil Imperial Palace would most likely attack him. Although Yu Sheng would help Ye Futian, the latter would not make it difficult for the former.
Now that Yu Sheng had yet to possess absolute authority in Devil Imperial Palace, Ye Futian naturally knew how to behave to not cause trouble for Yu Sheng.
Ye Futian looked around to see if there was other good stuff. In the surrounding region, there were many corpses. They were all intact corpses that most likely belonged to super cultivators.
He saw another gigantic Karura corpse. Ye Futian walked over towards it and stood before it. His consciousness invaded it. He immediately sensed the same divine runes of the Great Emperor on this corpse.
“Could it be that this is a cultivation technique that they were born with? Or rather, is it part of their physique?” asked Ye Futian. Was this the extraordinary divine body of Karura royalty?
This corpse was more complete and had not been destroyed. The Demonic Lord must have killed him to deal with the king of Karura.
His consciousness dived into the corpse. This time, he felt the sensation he had felt back when he was comprehending the corpse of Shenjia the Great Emperor. However, what was different was that the divine body of Shenjia the Great Emperor carried a powerful attacking will, whereas this corpse didn’t.
Anticipation welled up in Ye Futian as he comprehended the divine runes of the Great Emperor on the corpse. The cultivators of Devil Imperial Palace also noticed his actions. However, they ignored him. Their attention was on the Demonic Lord and the king of Karura.
“Yu Sheng,” Ye Futian called out to Yu Sheng after cultivating for a while. Yu Sheng turned to look at him. Ye Futian threw a few elixirs towards him. Yu Sheng revealed an incredulous look. Why was Ye Futian giving him elixirs?
“This imperial corpse has caught my eye. However, Devil Imperial Palace has taken this area. I will not take it for free. There are enough Sub-divine elixirs here for all the cultivators of Devil Imperial Palace below the Tribulation Plane,” said Ye Futian. The value of the imperial corpse was naturally higher. However, for the demonic cultivators of Devil Imperial Palace, these elixirs were more valuable than the imperial corpse. After all, they had no tangible use for the latter.
“Alright,” said Yu Sheng. He understood Ye Futian’s intention. He immediately accepted the elixirs and threw them over to Yan Guiyi. He said, “Demon Sage, you can distribute them.”
Yan Guiyi took out the elixirs. When he scanned the rank of the elixirs, he revealed a strange look. He looked surprised at Ye Futian and said, “These are all Sub-divine elixirs of the highest rank. This is worth an imperial corpse.”
He knew that Ye Futian was not taking advantage of them.
When they heard Yan Guiyi’s words, the cultivators of Devil Imperial Palace were stunned. Before this, they were somewhat disdainful towards Ye Futian’s offerings. However, once Yan Guiyi put it that way, these elixirs were indeed priceless.
Ye Futian nodded his head slightly and did not say more. He continued to comprehend the imperial corpse.. After comprehending for a while just now, he decided that he wanted it and hence had taken out the elixirs!
