Carefree Path of Dreams

Chapter 761: Negotiation

The Bottomless Blood Abyss was the land where the Demon God was sealed in. The marks left behind from the fights also illustrated this clearly, but Fang Yuan immediately thought of an important question.

“Nope!”

The nine heads of the Hydra shook with a very helpless expression. “There’s no bottom layer in this abyss. Even if I exerted all my power drilling down, I would just be randomly sent to the upper layer later. A few existences of the same rank have tried this many times, but they haven’t found the location of the true sealed body.”

If the seal was something tangible, some flaws would definitely have been found since it had been exposed for so long in front of the Demon Masters. Furthermore, it could have been forcefully worn down to release the Demon God.

“Seems that this Emperor’s seal is truly mysterious. Perhaps it only exists in a small, empty space and is as tiny as a mustard seed!”

Fang Yuan had a realization.

Suddenly, within his sea of consciousness, that Black Source Pearl moved, causing his face to change.

Heavenly Consort Yun Xiang was well-prepared. This Black Source Pearl is indeed the crucial key to unsealing the Demon God of this Blood Abyss!

Although he had obtained the key clue, Fang Yuan did not move nor have any desire to share this piece of information.

“Alright, they’ve also arrived!”

The Hydra’s eyes immediately turned toward two directions.

Caw! Caw!

Within the gust of strong winds, a double-headed black crow flapped its wings and descended.

Its body was a small dot compared to Fang Yuan’s giant body and the Hydra’s, but its aura was extremely horrifying. A storm endlessly shrouded its body, carrying an extreme power of destruction.

“Great… Another new Demon Master has joined us here!” said one of the crow’s heads with a raspy voice. Formless ripples spread, containing an inexplicable feeling.

“Such a sound wave… If a Demon General heard it, would they be reduced to a pool of blood?”

Fang Yuan’s eyes were solemn.

“Welcome, newbie!” Its other head spoke but this time, emitting a concentrated life aura, causing Fang Yuan to feel the blessing of a great recovery skill.

“Hiss hiss… This Demon Master joining us is called Dream Demon!” the Hydra introduced. “Dream Demon, this is the Life-and-Death Storm Crow. Its body controls the power of the storms, and one head controls life while the other controls death!”

“Hello, Your Excellency!” Fang Yuan’s huge head nodded.

“Then… Dream Demon, what are your abilities?”

The double-headed crow was fearless as it landed on Fang Yuan’s shoulders, looking like a small, black dot.

Fang Yuan smiled and said, “My abilities? With this body, I’m decent at close combat. Furthermore, I also grasp certain illusion techniques!”

“Hmm, you’re indeed very suitable to be a meat shield together with Nine Heads!” A woman’s voice sounded from another direction, and the direction the sound spread from blossomed with vast stretches of flowers and plants rising high up to the sky.

A lady’s figure appeared on the grassplot.

Her upper body was immensely beautiful, but her lower body was a great amount of tree roots lodged into the grassplot. The fusion of evil and beauty in one body carried an exotic charm.

“Nine Heads has horrifying regeneration, and each of his heads controls attacks of different attributes. I am most proficient in the poison element… You can call me Erag!”

This lady named Erag grinned. “With the combined strength of us four, there’s already assurance in attacking the Heaven Palace!”

“Heaven Palace?”

Fang Yuan instantly recalled the scar on the surface of the Heaven Palace when he had first arrived.

An ordinary demon would be unable to cause such damage to the Heaven Palace. Now, it seemed that it was the work of these Demon Masters.

“That’s the frontline of the Gods. They use the Heaven Palace to spy on us, and once they discover signs of a powerful being, they will instantly surround, attack, and kill them…” An immense look of hatred appeared in Erag’s eyes. “We must let them know that they have to pay a painful price for such actions!”

“Erag, although we have the addition of Dream Demon, there are seven Ancient Gods in the Heaven Palace… Shouldn’t we contact the other two regions?”

Although Nine Heads was the largest, his personality was the most discreet.

“No, I already can’t tolerate them!” said the double-headed Life-and-Death Crow viciously with blood-red eyes, death ripples spreading out and corroding a huge hole on Fang Yuan’s shoulders.

“Oh, sorry, it’s just that those self-proclaimed Gods are too annoying!” Its Life head instantly apologized and spat out a ball of green brilliance. “I’ll repair it for you!”

“It’s alright!” Fang Yuan patted his shoulder indifferently.

With the difference in size between him and this crow, the large hole it corroded was equivalent to a pinprick to an ordinary person. He basically felt nothing.

“Haha… Nine Heads, are you afraid? Don’t be scared. Didn’t you successfully destroy the Heaven Palace’s defenses once last time?” Erag laughed. “With me here, I won’t let you die!”

“Damn it… that time, you caused me to lose seven of my heads! Hiss hiss… they were nearly unable to grow back,” roared all of Nine Heads’ giant heads, creating vigorous winds.

“Even if you object, it’s no use since Crow supports me. What about you, Dream Demon?” The lady turned her gaze toward Fang Yuan.

“Attack the Gods? I have no objection!” Fang Yuan opened his mouth and showed a smile.

In reality, he currently had a strange feeling in his heart.* Isn’t this the classic big shot villians gathering, the scene where they discuss how to destroy the world? Unexpectedly, I’ve become a member as well!*

Erag heard the reply and smiled contentedly. “Very good, it’s now three against one. Nine Heads, do you have any other objections?”

“Alright… I have no objection!” Nine Heads muttered to himself and then said reluctantly, “However, don’t expect me to charge in first again!”

“No problem, we have two meat shields now. We might even be able to destroy the Heaven Palace and kill a couple Ancient Gods!” Erag looked at Fang Yuan with a gleam in her eyes.

“I’m alright with being the first to charge in, but you have to fulfill my requests first!” Fang Yuan’s eyes were furtive.

In his view, these three Demon Masters were three living drops of origin power.

Unfortunately, their abilities were too powerful and it was difficult to devour them.

“What requests?” the Hydra directly asked.

“My inheritance memories are still very incomplete, so I need your inheritances!”

Fang Yuan said solemnly, “I don’t want those secrets involving your fundamentals. I just need the descriptions of the Demon Master realm and the conjectures of the Demon God realm!”

“You don’t even have this. How pitiful!” Erag looked at Fang Yuan with pity. “No problem. I can also promise you that after we succeed, I’ll give you one memory crystal. Inside it contains the Demon God inspirations that I’ve obtained in the Blood Abyss!”

“We also have no objections!”

Nine Head and Crow’s expressions were quite weird, as if they were looking at an infant, and took out two crystals with a sense of pity. “Take them… Truthfully speaking, Dream Demon, did you just break through to the Demon Master realm? Then you’ll need to consolidate for a time, or you might be killed by those Ancient Gods.”

“Thank you… I’ll need to meditate for a while.”

Fang Yuan was somewhat speechless as he took these cultivation techniques and walked away with huge steps.

The three Demon Masters remained and watched silently.

“How pitiful…” The Hydra sighed. “Seems like there was a huge problem in Dream Demon’ ascension. Even his inheritance is this incomplete…”

“Keke…” Erag instead laughed mysteriously and winked. “You actually believe him? A native Demon Spirit would actually lose their memory to this extent?”

“Fake! Fake!” the Life-and-Death Crow’s Death Head cawed loudly, but was immediately rebutted by the other head. “Real! Real!”

The two sets of eyes stared at each other as if they were about to start bickering.

“Actually, it doesn’t matter if its real or fake. Regardless of whether he’s an infiltrator from an external realm or originally a God who turned traitor, he’s already become one of us!” the Hydra said with great wisdom. “With this turn of events, he already has no other choice.”

“That’s true. That’s why I agreed to pass him the cultivation techniques!” Erag laughed jubilantly. “The influence of the origin power can’t be exterminated. With the addition of cultivation technique imprints at the Demon Master rank, even the Spiritual Realm Emperor can only destroy him, but is unable to pull him back.”

…

“These three Demon Masters might not necessarily have no suspicions about my identity!”

The Blood Abyss was endlessly vast. Fang Yuan quickly found an empty space and started arranging restrictions.

Chains of dense runes condensed in the sky before finally transforming a palace.

His large body shrank and returned to normal as he pushed open the palace door.

“Of course… Although the information given to me is all real, it may not necessarily be based on good intentions!”

Fang Yuan sat cross-legged and started accepting the knowledge obtained from the three Demon Masters one by one. “However… I really only need descriptions of the realm. Even though they gave me the inheritance quintessence, I won’t cultivate it. The Dao of Demon God certainly requires me to find my own Dao path!”

In this aspect, Dream Master had already walked in the forefront.

Needless to say, Fang Yuan had long had thoughts and an embryonic form regarding finding his own Dao of Creation and using it to ascend to Demon God.

“However, the most pressing issue is still this Black Source Pearl!”

His turned his palm and a pitch-black pearl appeared in the middle.

After reaching the Blood Abyss, this pearl seemed to be very active.

“This Black Source Pearl should be formed from the natural source, thus able to sense origin power… It only moved a bit when I met the three Demon Masters, but it vibrated vigorously when I saw the Dao Mark. Is there a profound mystery to this?”

Fang Yuan extended his right hand and a small glow appeared on his fingertips.

He wrote in the air all the incomplete symbols that he had just seen.

Light glows dotted everywhere and covered the Black Source Pearl. This exotic item similarly flickered like it was responding to the runes.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Suddenly, an attractive force appeared from the bead and absorbed all of the runes into it before quickly sending them out.

“This…” Seeing this, Fang Yuan had an ecstatic expression. “Complete Mental Demon ancient text?!”
