Chapter 1835 Earth Demon King
Chapter 1835 Earth Demon King
Ye Zhenjun stepped out of the cave and quickly sped towards the mountain peak.
Along the way, the Soul Devourer wandered around, but it did not have the kind of rampage and rage, but rather a kind of aimless and harmless wandering.
It carries a kind of domesticated docility.
Moreover, they only wander among the mountains, seemingly avoiding the vine-like, thread-like things in the void between the mountains.
Ye Zhenjun skillfully navigated through the various formations in the mountains and arrived at the summit.
There is a very strange array at the top of the mountain.
The great formation rippled with a layer of gray energy, radiating a strange power needed to nourish the soul.
At the four points of the formation were four primordial spirits, their expressions listless, their human forms discernible but almost transparent.
Three men and one woman, their eyes constantly shifting between half-sane and half-mad, a look that sent chills down their spines and made them shudder.
Ye Zhenjun appeared outside the great formation, and the only woman inside the formation let out a sinister laugh:
"It seems your plan has succeeded! It wasn't for nothing that we expended our soul power to send you out!"
"Although there were some variables, it can still be considered a success!" Ye Zhenjun said in a deep voice.
"What changes can an ant from the lower realm possibly make..." the female spirit sneered.
Ye Zhenjun opened his mouth, but ultimately couldn't bring himself to admit that he had been utterly humiliated by a young human, so he simply shook his head and said:
"Those things are unimportant now! It's just that the fifth level of the Myriad Talisman Demon Corpse has ruined most of my power and even my physical body. When the sacrifice begins later, you'll probably have to bear with it a bit more!"
"It's been too many years, you've wasted too much time, I thought we wouldn't be able to wait for you anymore."
"Luckily, you managed to arrange the offerings successfully. As for the rest, it's acceptable if you take on less responsibility!"
At the center of the formation, a man with an eerie expression spoke.
“Yes! When the star continent collapsed, only a few of us survived. Now that there is a sliver of hope, we should cooperate sincerely and not quarrel again.”
"Another old man said."
Ye Zhenjun nodded, and was about to speak again when he saw a violent energy fluctuation emanating from the great formation.
The next second, the eyes of the four people at the core of the formation were suddenly filled with madness, emitting roars like wild beasts and causing their souls to tremble.
Ye Zhenjun sighed softly. Even if they returned to the Spirit Realm, would they really still have the chance to rebuild their physical bodies and start anew?
When the star system collapsed, hundreds of billions of lives on Qingmu Star were wiped out. Only the top experts from all sides survived with a wisp of their souls, barely clinging to life until now.
However, in this extreme environment, without a physical body and surrounded by chaotic soul power, although it has survived to this day, it has inevitably experienced decline and chaos.
This great formation can protect the soul, help them resist chaos, and maintain clarity.
However, in recent years, they have had less and less time for Qingming Festival, and they can only arrange the sacrifices after they have woken up from the chaos.
Ye Zhenjun remained calm and sat cross-legged outside the great formation.
Even if Chen Wanli and his party returned by the same route, it would still take some time.
Even if they rushed back in advance, it would be of no use.
The arrangement made by oneself is far more than a child's imagination!
A cold smile crept across his lips!
……
Five floors.
Chen Wanli led his men to gather a bunch of good stuff before leisurely heading towards the teleportation array to return.
Back on the fourth floor, they resumed their "digging three feet into the ground" looting spree.
"Ahem, Chen Shenzu, are we moving too slowly like this?" Kuafu Chong was still thinking about Ye Zhenjun's words of sacrifice.
Chen Wanli smiled faintly: "You actually believe in sacrifices?"
"But the Heavenly Demon King also said so, which may not be a lie!"
"He doesn't have that ability!" Chen Wanli said with absolute certainty.
"Uh! I have a guess about Ye Zhenjun, but I don't know if I should say it!" The Heavenly Demon King said cautiously, his head lowered.
Chen Wanli's lips curled into a smile: "Are you saying that there might be survivors like Ye Zhenjun on the seventh floor? And that they are plotting the sacrifice together?"
A look of surprise flashed across the Heavenly Demon King's eyes, then he gave a wry smile and tacitly agreed with Chen Wanli's statement.
It's not surprising that she had this guess, because she and the Earth Demon had crossed the void and encountered Soul Devourers whose consciousness had not been extinguished.
But Chen Wanli was clearly very observant and noticed this from other angles.
The Dragon King cracked his neck and frowned, saying, "Then why don't they come out together?"
"I don't know. But even if Ye Zhenjun is a top-notch expert in the Spirit Realm, he is definitely not the only top expert."
In a crisis, he has a way to save his life, which means that people like him will have the same.
So he wasn't the only survivor! That's not hard to guess!
Chen Wanli shook his head.
The Dragon King said, "We've had this thought before, but we always felt that if there were truly so many powerful beings, why wait so many years? We could have forced the God Ancestor to relocate long ago!"
"There must be a reason we don't know!"
Chen Wanli persisted in his idea.
"Then, could they really have some method that can reverse the universe? Did they sacrifice the true void to the gods?"
The Dragon King said in a deep, muffled voice.
Chen Wanli raised an eyebrow: "Did Ye Zhenjun only contact you and not the Earth Demon?"
The conversation took abrupt turn, catching him off guard. The Heavenly Demon King paused for a moment before shaking his head and saying, "I don't know. The Earthly Demon didn't mention it!"
"Does Chen Shenzu mean that Ye Zhenjun might have another plan? Is it related to the Earth Demon?" The Dragon King was no fool and reacted very quickly.
Chen Wanli narrowed his eyes, smiled knowingly, but did not answer.
The Heavenly Demon King suddenly had a bad feeling. Earth Demon, you must not get involved!
This guy is a complete freak!
Anyone who tries to deal with him is just asking for trouble.
……
The first floor of the Moon God Platform.
Although the new site of the Protoss city has only been under construction for a short period of ten months, it has already begun to take shape.
The magnificent city walls have been erected, but the intricate buildings inside have not yet begun construction.
The gods moved about continuously, with Kuafu, a descendant of the mighty god, acting as porters, carrying various huge and heavy spiritual materials.
Each of the Xiangshou clan members then transformed into a master architect, responsible for planning and constructing the buildings.
"Different clans gather in different areas, with both good and bad aspects. I know everyone wants to maintain the purity of their clan's bloodline. But small groups inevitably stick together, and over time, resentment is bound to arise!"
Lei Jiang stood before the clan elders, sharing his insights.
The clan elders hesitated, wanting to speak but ultimately looked at Ancestor Lei Ze.
Now that Kuafu Chong and Fangfeng Ting are gone, all decisions rest with the divine ancestor, Leize Laozu.
Ancestor Lei Ze frowned for a moment, then tapped the table and said, "Xuan Lie, what do you think?"
“I think we should consult Chen Shenzu on this matter!” Xuan Lie coughed lightly.
"Chen Shenzu? Will the affairs of the gods really have to be decided by the human race from now on?" An elder of the Fangfeng clan asked, his voice tinged with resentment.
"Even if we are willing to let Chen Shenzu make the decision, will we not plan the layout of the city as long as Chen Shenzu does not return?"
Another elder of the Kuafu clan asked in a deep voice.
Xuan Lie frowned, displeased, and asked, "What do you mean by that?"
"No disrespect intended. It's just that the depths of the Moon God Platform are extremely dangerous, and it's not impossible that one might not return!"
"Damn it! Ancestor Chen found a sacred place for cultivation for our divine race and prepared so many array treasures, allowing us to move freely here, yet you..."
Xuan Lie slammed her hand on the table, bursting into a rage.
"Your Huaxu clan has lost all the spirit of a divine race! You always have to please others..."
Ancestor Lei Ze snorted.
The entire room fell silent immediately.
"Never let me hear such ungrateful remarks again, or even if your ancestral god were present, I would still execute him without mercy!"
After saying this, the ancestor Lei Ze continued, "Since the Dragon Clan did not hold a funeral, it means that the Dragon King is still alive."
Then Chen Shenzu is naturally safe. All matters will be discussed again upon the return of Chen Shenzu, Chongzu, and Tingzu!
Before the words were finished, a mocking voice came from afar:
"Being safe today doesn't guarantee survival tomorrow!"
The sound of the first word still lingered, but by the last word, it was like thunder exploding above the city.
Everyone was shocked.
Led by Elder Lei Ze, Lei Jiang, and Xuan Lie, they sped towards the city wall one after another.
After exchanging glances, the elders of each ethnic group followed suit.
The Demon King Golden-Eyed Lion and a man with a burly figure like a giant, but whose body radiated purple demonic light, had arrived at the city.
"Earth Demon King!"
As soon as Ancestor Lei Ze exclaimed, the figures who arrived from behind all froze, and even held their breath involuntarily.
The two demons, the Earth Demon and the Heaven Demon, are so powerful that the Earth Demon is even stronger than the Heaven Demon King. Most importantly, the Earth Demon is calm and collected. He doesn't make a move unless he has made thorough preparations beforehand.
"It's a pleasant surprise that you still remember my name!"
The Earth Demon's voice had a steady, magnetic quality. He was tall and burly, with a rugged demeanor, but his tone of voice was remarkably calm.
This stark contrast makes people more likely to feel uneasy.
"The Earth Demon King has arrived. What advice do you have for me? Please speak frankly!" Ancestor Lei Ze said calmly.
"Where is the Heavenly Demon now?" the Earth Demon King asked slowly.
"The Heavenly Demon King's strength is extraordinary; how could we possibly guess his whereabouts!" Ancestor Lei Ze shook his head.
"When did Chen Wanli leave? And when will he return?" the Earth Demon asked again.
“They left a month ago, and we do not know when they will return!” Old Ancestor Lei Ze replied again.
The question and answer were fluent, without a single spark.
But everyone felt as if a heavy stone was pressing on their hearts.
These words reveal that the Heavenly Demon King may have followed Chen Wanli and his group into the depths of the Moon Extreme Divine Platform.
The dangers inside are probably beyond imagination.
"Activate the formation, and allow the Demon Emperor and I to enter!"
The Earth Demon's tone left no room for argument.
Just as Ancestor Lei Ze hesitated, the Demon Emperor roared to the sky and transformed into his true form, a gigantic beast whose height was comparable to that of the city wall.
The beast's claws reached out, leaving a shadowy trail that blotted out the sky in the void, as if they would tear apart the city's protective formation in the next second.
