Chapter 137 The Demon Race’s Grand Plan, Birth of a True Dragon
In the air, the corpses of the three fiend sects were suspended by the black threads. Their magic power was instantly extracted by the black threads.
Zi Ji, Cult Master Xiaoyao, the Night Soul Lord, and the rest had pale faces. Blood flowed from the corners of their mouths as their auras weakened.
Their eyes were filled with shock and reluctance.
They never imagined that they would die in the hands of such a demon while cultivating the demonic path. It was simply ironic.
The demon in front of them was too powerful. So powerful that the fiend sect experts could barely put up any resistance. They were as weak as an ant, and any struggle or resistance was as useless as an ant shaking a tree.
“Am I going to die here today?” Night Soul Lord could not accept this, but he could not muster any strength. Even breathing was difficult.
Meanwhile, Night Whisper was also reluctant to accept this fate.
She did not want to die, nor did she want to die in such a meaningless manner. She was like an ant that had been inadvertently trampled to death, a dust particle lost into a deserted corner.
There should still be many possibilities in her life. She still had many dreams and things she had yet to accomplish.
She had not even sparred with Li Yu to see how strong he was!
However, any struggles and screams from the soul could not affect the disappearing life and death itself.
Right when Night Whisper felt her will was about to vanish, a figure suddenly appeared in her field of vision.
His black hair danced lightly, and his clothes fluttered. The sword in his hand was like a three-foot-long flowing light that tore through the sky.
In an instant, silence reigned as time seemed to have stopped!
The ferocious devil with a torrential demonic aura froze. Its blood-red eyes widened as it looked at Li Yu in horror and the indifferent expression on his face.
“No…”
With a roar, the devil’s body exploded with a bang, turning into demonic Qi that filled the sky.
Li Yu’s strike had not only killed that powerful devil.
It was also like a bolt of lightning that struck the hearts of Night Whisper, the Night Soul Lord, and the other fiend sect experts.
If the divine art of the devil sucked away all of their magic power, then Li Yu’s strike made their minds go blank.
They even forgot that they were half a step into the gates of hell and forgot the fear in their hearts.
There was only one emotion left in their heart: shock!
Incomparable shock!
They would never have thought that such a powerful and terrifying devil that could instantly make them lose their ability to resist was actually killed by a single strike from Li Yu.
It was as simple as cutting grass and melon.
How strong is Li Yu?
The moment the devil was killed, the natural oddity Demon Spirit Pearl automatically flew out of the system space and devoured the demonic Qi that filled the sky instantly.
Immediately after, nine drops of golden liquid floated in the air, emitting powerful magic waves.
“Ding… successful collection of divine beast Chao Feng’s blood essence!”
With the system’s voice, the nine drops of golden liquid and the Demon Spirit Pearl flew in front of Li Yu and were stored in the system’s space.
With the devil killed, the domain power in the area instantly disappeared, and the black threads began dissipating.
Demon Lord Zi Ji, Cult Master Xiaoyao, Night Soul Lord, Night Whisper, Gu Yuqi, and the rest of the survivors finally caught their breaths.
However, their weak bodies could no longer stay up in the air. They fell from the sky with the hundreds of corpses and landed heavily on the ground.
Meanwhile, Gu Yuqi was caught by Li Yu.
“Junior Brother, are you alright?” Li Yu asked as he immediately took out an immortal pill and stuffed it into Gu Yuqi’s mouth.
While Li Yu sympathized with Gu Yuqi’s plight, he did not know whether to laugh or cry.
He vaguely felt that the sudden appearance of this demonic thing was also attracted by Gu Yuqi’s fancy unlucky physique. And the outcome was not unexpected as he had indeed obtained something good again.
Gu Yuqi’s luck was really bizarre!
At the moment, Demon Lord Zi Ji, Cult Master Xiaoyao, the Night Soul Lord, Night Whisper, and a few other surviving fiend sect experts lay on the ground, heavily panting as sweat had drenched their clothes.
They all stared at Li Yu, and it was impossible to calm down for a long time.
They finally understood what Li Yu’s unknown cultivation represented.
They finally understood why the Heavenly Dao Rankings had given Li Yu the additional reward and why auspicious signs had descended from the heavens when he ascended the rankings.
Li Yu was no mortal. He was a true god. After her shock, Night Whisper gave a bitter laugh, and she was truly ashamed of her inferiority.
She had wanted to challenge Li Yu previously, and she was enraged because she felt that Li Yu was looking down on her. She even felt that Li Yu was arrogant and conceited.
Now, the clown was actually herself. Li Yu was not full of himself. He was just too powerful.
She was not only not his match, because she was even inferior to a finger of his!
For such a god-like expert to say such things to him was already giving him enough face.
Li Yu quickly sent Gu Yuqi to the Immortal’s Palace to treat his injuries. With the immortal pill, Gu Yuqi should be able to recover soon. As for the fiend sects, he could not be bothered with them.
“You guys may return to the Misty Immortal Island with Junior Brother Gu. Use the Immortal Spring and immortal pills to continue your cultivation. There are still too many potential threats in the Virtual Sky Mystic Realm. You lot have to improve your cultivation a little more!” Li Yu remarked.
If not for the fact that the Qingyun Sect disciples were all in the defensive array formation of the Immortal Palace when the devil appeared just now, they would probably have died on the spot like the fiend sects.
Therefore, Li Yu felt that it was safer to let everyone stay on the Misty Immortal Island for the time being Using this way, he could travel alone while bringing the Immortal Palace along and save the worry about his juniors encountering any unknown danger.
After sending his junior brothers back to the Misty Immortal Island, Li Yu walked out of the Mi Lu Immortal Palace again.
With a thought, the Immortal Palace rapidly shrank and was kept in the system storage space.
Upon seeing this, Demon Lord Zi Ji, Cult Master Xiaoyao, the Night Soul Lord, and the others were filled with envy. They were also curious about what was inside the palace.
However, it was like when ordinary people would not have the chance to interact no matter how envious they were of their boss’s goddess-like wife.
After putting away the Immortal Palace, Li Yu felt melancholic. He did not know how to return to the Lingtian Mystic Realm.
He opened the mission interface again and was surprised to find that there seemed to be an entrance to the Qing Cang Ancient Emperor’s treasury here.
It seemed like the Lingtian Mystic Realm and the Virtual Sky Mystic Realm were connected in many ways.
It was not impossible to return to the Lingtian Mystic Realm again.
Thousand Dragon Island, Azure Dragon Race’s Dragon Palace. After hearing Lion King Xin Teng’s words, the elders had complicated expressions as they exchanged looks.
“The Golden Feather Race, the Holy Ape Clan, the Nine-Headed Snake Clan, and the Demon Fox Clan have already submitted to my son. The Phoenix Race has also agreed to cooperate with us. Now, only your Azure Dragon Race is left! If your clan is willing to cooperate, my son can give your race a great fortune that will surely improve your clan’s strength.”
Lion King Xin Teng continued. “Everyone, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Whether our demon race can rule over the human race and dominate the Immortal Martial World will depend on this!”
“This… His Majesty isn’t here. We need time to think over this!” An elder of the Azure Dragon Race said in a low voice.
It was a serious matter, and they did not dare to make a decision on their own.
After all, this was a total war with the Human Race, and it concerned the fate of the entire Azure Dragon Race. “What’s there to think about? As you can see, the human race has a monster like Li Yu. He has extraordinary luck. How many fortunes did he obtain in the Lingtian Mystic Realm at this stage? The cultivation of the Qingyun Sect disciples has been soaring.
“If this continues, after the Qingyun Sect comes out of the mystic realm, our demon race will probably not have the chance to turn things around anymore!” Lion King Xin Teng explained.
“Greetings, elders!” A voice suddenly sounded from outside the hall.
“What is it?”
“Elder, it’s a joyous occasion. The third princess has reached the top of the Sons of Heaven Rankings!” The voice outside the door was excited.
The elders of the Azure Dragon Race were also pleasantly surprised.
He immediately stood up and quickly walked out of the palace. He looked up and was immediately pleasantly surprised. Indeed, Long Yue, once ranked fifth on the Demon Sons of Heaven Rankings, jumped to first place. What made the Azure Dragon Tribe even more excited was that Long Yue’s cultivation base had reached the Immortal Spirit Realm.
“The third princess has actually evolved into a true dragon!” All the elders were beyond excited.
They knew that Long Yue must have obtained a supreme opportunity in the Virtual Sky Mystic Realm that allowed the third princess to evolve into a True Dragon.
For humans, stepping into the Immortal Spirit Realm meant becoming immortal. Their mortal bodies would transform into immortal bodies to become true immortals.
For the Azure Dragon Race, stepping into the Immortal Spirit Realm meant evolving into a True Dragon, becoming a divine beast from a demon beast to an existence comparable to the True Azure Dragon. After all these years, their Azure Dragon Race had finally produced another true dragon. The entire Thousand Dragon Island was in an uproar as countless Azure Dragon clansmen cheered excitedly.
The birth of a true dragon-level expert in the Azure Dragon Race was definitely a joyous occasion for the entire race.
Seeing Long Yue exceeding Xin Ba to become the first on the rankings and stepping into the Immortal Spirit Realm, Lion King Xin Teng was also filled with shock and envy.
He thought that Xin Ba would become the first prodigy of the demon race to enter the Immortal Spirit Realm in the past hundred thousand years.
He did not expect the Azure Dragon Tribe to be so lucky to have Long Yue obtain some sort of great opportunity to evolve into a True Dragon.
However, jealousy was one thing. Lion King Xin Teng did not lose his bearing as he seized this opportunity, “Congratulations. The Azure Dragon race is indeed blessed by the heavens. Your luck is extraordinary. The world will definitely belong to the Azure Dragon race and our demon race in the future. Elders, don’t hesitate anymore. This is the era of our demon race’s rise!”
“Hahaha, alright. We agree to cooperate with you, but we have a request! The Primordial Dao Holy Land shall belong to our Azure Dragon Race. We won’t compete for anything else!”
“This…” Lion King Xin Teng frowned.
“Deal!” The green-robed man beside him, who had not spoken all this while, replied.
Seeing the young master of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm nod in agreement, Lion King Xin Teng did not say anything else.
“Alright, then it’s a deal!”
