Chapter 860: Chapter 593: A Visitor from Northern Hong, Pushing Forward the Demon Law Again - Part 2
"Do you really think that having a daughter in the heavens allows you to do whatever you desire? You don’t even know if Zi Ling acknowledges you as her father."
The West Dragon King sneered coldly.
This time, striking out at Southern Hong was also meant to serve as a small warning to the Purple-Bearded White Dragon who had married in from afar. Perhaps in the future, she would be more compliant, considering the face of the East Dragon Palace. Even if he himself didn’t directly target her, he could still meddle with things she cared about.
"Everyone return, and be ready to march south at any moment."
"The Ten Thousand Demon Hall should also be about ready to reveal itself."
The West Dragon King calculated with a flick of his fingers. Based on his estimation of the cultivators’ strength in Southern Hong, the Great Demons he had released should have already caused quite a stir by now.
He was just waiting for word from Zhaoyi. Then, he would show the so-called Ten Thousand Demon Hall what had built the fame of the master of Western Hong.
At that very moment.
The West Dragon King suddenly froze, then quickly stood up and looked toward the north.
As a Great Demon with perfection in the Heavenly Realm, his control over this land and water far surpassed anyone else’s expectations. He could sense even the slightest change in advance.
And this was no mere slight change.
The many auras that surged into Western Hong made even him feel a palpitation!
Why were these gods of slaughter from the north suddenly heading south?
The four Dragon Sons sensed their father’s unusual behavior and hurriedly looked up, following his gaze.
The next moment in the Dragon King Palace, an arrogant voice echoed.
"Close your eyes, hold your tongues, do not look at what should not be seen, do not ask what should not be asked."
These auras entered the territory of Western Hong with no room for negotiation, issuing commands to the master of the land.
Such a thing would be intolerable to anyone.
Yet the West Dragon King merely pondered for an instant before truly averting his gaze, then seated himself back on the throne, acting as if he saw nothing.
The forces who had dispatched these two powers, the edicts they followed, were almost obvious without thinking.
Curious as he might be, he dared not ask any further questions.
Meanwhile.
In another part of the Western Hong skies, amid swirling clouds and fog, a massive black shadow churned unpredictably, with occasionally visible sharp Dragon Claws seeming capable of tearing through the sky curtain itself.
Beside this shadow stood three figures in luxurious embroidered robes, with their hands clasped behind their backs.
The two men in front, both of older age, exuded an understated but undeniable nobility, and it was one of them who had previously warned the Western Dragon Palace.
Behind them was a tall, handsome young man in the same style of opulent clothing, yet his presence seemed particularly sharp and spirited.
"Master Xue, how do you find your first departure from Northern Hong?" one of them inquired.
Hearing this, the young man casually surveyed the land and water below and said indifferently, "I came for novelty, but it’s not that interesting."
The two older men smiled silently. This young man has opened four cities, cultivated Immortal Laws, and even took charge of a treasure land. His fame has spread across the four Hongs. He certainly has their youthful style, so a bit of arrogance is to be expected. After all, what he said was the truth.
Aside from the north, Eastern Hong might have some appeal, but the other two... those were lands forgotten by the Immortals, hardly stirring any interest.
"Let’s drop the matter for now. There are orders to be followed. Once we escort the Merit Immortal back to Northern Hong, we will definitely return to investigate the whereabouts of Situ Sect Master. Perhaps by then, Master Xue, you can take a closer look; you might find something quite interesting."
There wasn’t much worry in their conversation.
Situ Junrui must have encountered some trouble, but they believed it was unlikely to threaten his life. Even though he was one of the Sect Masters with relatively less heritage in the Infinite Dao Emperor Sect, his undisputed power in the Earth Realm was real.
Even if faced with a Heavenly Realm powerhouse, with the means of the Immeasurable Dao Imperial Palace, he could at least ensure his own survival.
But those who genuinely had such power also lacked the daring. The name of the Infinite Dao Emperor Sect was like a towering mountain, enough to crush the backbone of any wilderness practitioner.
...
In Southern Hong, Nanyang Treasure Land.
After returning to his sect, Shen Yi went to the grand hall atop the mountain.
Gazing at the three silent Hall Master Town Stones in front of him.
Ke Shisan was so excited that his shoulders were trembling. He knew why his master had left this time, and the celestial phenomenon that had affected all of Southern Hong was also perceptible even from within the Nanyang Treasure Land.
After Old Ke Seven, he finally had the chance to meet his own clan.
And it was the Crown Prince who had arrived, a figure of considerable importance.
He could hardly imagine what levels he could reach after consuming the Crown Prince and Qi Zhaoyi. Perhaps, he might have a chance to become a Great Demon on par with his grandfather!
And Shen Yi did not make him wait any longer.
He directly took out two dragon corpses and transformed them into a blood river that infused into Ke Shisan’s body.
Now, in this situation, every second counted, and each bit of enhancement increased the likelihood of successfully killing the South Dragon King.
One could say that if anything went wrong this time, then everything he had done since leaving the Nanyang Treasure Land would have been for naught, utterly meaningless.
"Come on, show me some strength."
Shen Yi felt that long-lost tension once again.
After all, the gap between the mid and late stages of the Heavenly Realm was vast. Adding to that, since Qi Zhaoyi was a Jade Horned Silver Dragon, his bloodline would suffer a considerable deficit. Even with two corpses combined, it might not necessarily help Ke Shisan overcome this threshold.
Perhaps it was because both these dragon demons were outstanding amongst their peers within the same realm and were both eldest sons, inheriting the purest bloodline.
The process was far smoother than Shen Yi had anticipated.
At the moment the blood river infused into him, Ke Shisan’s body uncontrollably began to tremble. His golden scales faded away, revealing his stone nature; as chips of stone skin fell away, he less resembled the Yellow Poison Dragon and more the Five-clawed True Dragon as Shen Yi understood it.
That rich power of the bloodline emitted an enticing fragrance.
Ke Shisan’s figure began to swell, and even in human form, he grew to over thirty feet tall; his shoulders were as broad as mountains, an imposing stature that even surpassed his grandfather’s.
"Sigh."
Shen Yi began to condense the Demon Origin and feed it into him to help the East Hall Master stabilize his Demon Soul, gradually take control of this new body, and better conceal his presence.
This was his trump card; it was best not to reveal it if possible.
Finally, Ke Shisan opened his eyes, and terrifying brilliance surged within them.
He remained seated in a meditative pose, and to others, he seemed to vaguely possess a hint of the South Dragon King’s aura.
Late Stage of the Heavenly Realm!
Shen Yi did not rush to excitement but observed carefully instead.
A moment later, he exhaled softly.
Even though they were of the same realm, the South Dragon King obviously had a much deeper foundation; even compared to Senior Ye, he fell short.
Still not stable enough.
After all, what Shen Yi needed was not to surpass or suppress the old Dragon King, but to slay him without causing too much commotion or leaking any news.
"I’ll have to think of a solution myself."
Shen Yi gestured for Ke Shisan to transform back to a Demon-suppressing Stone and take his seat, then sat down on the mat at the center of the great hall.
His current strength was comparable to the Mid Heavenly Realm, but whether it was Shenyue Zhenqingtian or the Supreme Netherworld, both were far stronger than ordinary Divine Skills, placing him among the stronger individuals in the Mid Heavenly Realm. However, he was still a long way from those in the Late Stage of the Heavenly Realm.
To further improve himself, it boiled down to either Divine Skills or Immortal Law.
For the former, he needed a large number of Unity Realm Stage Demon Stones to fill the Ten Thousand Demon Hall, but currently, there was no suitable opportunity, and time was pressing.
"Immortal Law..."
Shen Yi summoned the panel, and his gaze landed on the Ten Thousand Tribulations Blood God Technique.
This was an entry-level fragment of the technique that Yue Tianji had obtained from within the Infinite Dao Emperor Sect; to get the rest of the technique, he would definitely have to visit the Northern Hong.
"But who has the time for that?"
Shen Yi took a deep breath. Since becoming the Sect Master of Nanyang, it had been a long time since he had to worry about Cultivation Techniques.
Now, suddenly having to deduce Demon Cultivation Techniques again, he felt somewhat unaccustomed.
The torture embedded in his bones, just a slight recollection of it, sent shivers down his spine.
He stretched out his hand and condensed a Demon Crystal.
Such a thing, requiring only a thousand years of Demon Lifespan, Shen Yi had not touched in a long time.
But the demon souls that could be awakened now were not comparable to those at the beginning.
He looked down at his palm.
The Monster Blood stained on these hands, counting only those above the Unity Realm Stage, had to be tallied in double digits.
And that included several Hall Masters, all received into the panel.
[In the first year, you opened the fragment of the Ten Thousand Tribulations Blood God Technique and casually consumed a Demon Crystal, prompting the awakening of sleeping remnants of demon spirits...]
As a vast amount of Demon Lifespan was poured into him,
Suddenly, the roars of thousands upon thousands of demons echoed around Shen Yi. Their collective resentment almost threatened to burst through the heavens!
