Chapter 334 - 334 This Is Different From What We Agreed On
The demon beasts widened their eyes. However, they soon realized that… they were not as surprised as they had imagined.
The vicious demon Xia Donghai killed the Holy Son again.
Yes, that is all there is to it. Anyway, it is not the first time he has killed him. As he said himself, if he can kill him once or twice, he can naturally kill him three or four times…
There is nothing wrong with it at all!
Xuan Qinghe gnashed his teeth with a pained expression. “The Holy Son… died again?”
Wang Jue opened his mouth wide and instinctively licked Chi Yanli’s head. After a few breaths, he came back to his senses and spat out a mouthful of bird feathers.
“Damn bird, what are you doing here!”
“You little kitty, how dare you complain first!” Chi Yanli also exploded. “Is my head something you can lick?!”
“Pfft! How long has it been since you cleaned it!”
“Rubbish! My bloodline has reverted to its ancestral state, and my body is covered by natural divine flames. How can filth approach me?!”
“That means it’s never been washed before… Blargh!”
The two high-level grand demons fought in an instant. They did not use their magical power. Instead, they used their pure physical strength to fight in public.
It was a super fierce fight!
There were also some members of the White Tiger Clan and the Crimson Crow Clan in the crowd of demon beasts. However, at this moment, they could not bear to look at it and closed their eyes. They silently turned their heads away and pretended that they did not see this scene.
After all… it was too embarrassing!
As the inheritors of two major clans, the two of you should fight gloriously and majestically, full of the dignity that a royal clan should have, right?
In the end, it was meh. They used all kinds of methods, such as plucking feathers, nibbling feet and pecking eyeballs, but they did not use divine power at all. At first glance, it was simply like two ordinary beasts fighting!
“Shameful, it’s too shameful!”
“What sins have our two clans committed?”
“Fellow practitioner Xia Donghai, please be the judge!” At this moment, Chi Yanli and Wang Jue fought in front of Feng Xia and shouted one after another.
“This guy never showers!”
“This guy likes to lick everywhere!”
Feng Xia: “…”
After three breaths of silence, he muttered, “My fellow practitioners, you’ve mistaken me for someone else. I’m not Xia Donghai. I’m Shang Nanshan.”
He raised his hand and pointed to somewhere not far away. The two grand demons instinctively turned their heads to look. Feng Xia took this opportunity to grab the hands of Zhu Youniang and Qing Lin. He then signaled to his other companions. With a swoosh, he arrived in front of the crowd.
At this moment, among the demons present, those who had the slightest bit of intelligence had more or less realized…
The Holy Son was not holy at all!
Just the terrifying look of the stitched monster made it impossible for people to associate it with the word “holy”. The name Holy Son had become a complete joke.
However, the Holy Son had charged over aggressively this time round. He used a fatal killing technique and displayed his terrifying true form. In the end, the speed at which he was defeated was even faster than before!
“Who exactly is the Holy Son…”
“Did he become stronger or weaker?”
Similar thoughts appeared in the hearts of the demons almost at the same time.
There were also a few more courageous or slow-reacting demon beasts who had yet to react. Faced with this scene, they only spat out a few words in a daze.
“It must be fake…”
“This Holy Son is fake, right?”
A fake Holy Son?
Although they wanted to simply agree with this statement, in the hearts of many demon beasts, the strength displayed by the Holy Son was unquestionable.
The terrifying fluctuation was still lingering between heaven and earth. The black light that the Holy Son had summoned earlier had caused irreparable damage to space. Even at this moment, there were still destructive black scars intertwining in the void in front of them.
However, such an existence had been destroyed by Feng Xia.
Therefore, when Feng Xia walked over, many demon beasts instantly scattered, forming a wide path.
“It’s almost time. The second level is about to open.”
Feng Xiang nodded with a smile and looked at the peak of Central Divine Mountain. Following his actions, all the demons present looked over.
Originally, on Central Divine Mountain, there was a large area sealed off by restrictions. Boundless purple energy pervaded the area, drowning out everything. It was even stronger than the divine light on the Heavenly Stairway and blocked all outsiders from entering.
However, as the Heavenly Stairway closed, it was as if the world had been split open. The purple energy began to surge violently.
Seeing this scene, everyone understood…
“The moment has finally come!”
“It’s only been a month, but I feel like many years have passed…”
“The second level. The first level already has such abundant opportunities on the first level. It’s hard to imagine what kind of immortal realm the second level will be like!”
In fact, the number of demon beasts that could reach this place had already decreased by more than 99% compared to when they first entered the Demon Imperial Tombs.
Some of them knew that they could not go to the second level, so they chose to stay on the first level. Instead of fighting for the impossible second level, it was better to stay on the first level and try to obtain whatever benefits they could before the Demon Imperial Tombs closed.
At the same time, many demon beasts had died during the battles and trials, becoming insignificant figures in this great era.
In the end, those who could stand here were all experts.
However, in the face of the surging purple energy, they could not help but be excited!
...
“Since ancient times, there have never been many people who could enter the second level. I didn’t expect to be lucky enough to be one of them!”
“It’s said that not only are there more natural treasures in the second level, but there’s also the inheritance of the First Ruler and the ancient inheritance he teleported over. Every one of them is not lower than the Dharma Characteristic Realm!”
“As long as I can obtain an inheritance, where can’t I go in the world?”
“Look, the purple energy has dispersed…”
Buzz—
Divine light suddenly descended amidst the purple energy. It was surrounded by an ancient and simple aura, holy and peaceful as it spread in all directions.
After countless twists and turns, the second level of the Demon Imperial Tombs was finally about to open!
“Can I turn the tide and resolve the crisis of my clan?” Chi Yanli bit Wang Jue’s claws as a thought appeared in his head.
“The plan to change the world… Whether the human race can rise up or not depends on this!” Mo Lianque clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
“The survival of the Thousand Autumn Valley…” First Elder Lei Shao and the others first looked in the direction of the divine light, then turned back to look at Feng Xia.
The eyes of more demon beasts were filled with anticipation. If they could gain something from the second level, they might be able to save on tens or hundreds of years of cultivation and leap into the top ranking of the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons.
...
Who could resist such temptation?
The two sisters, Nonghua and Nongyue… Wang Xiaoman… Yinghua Yu…
The fates of too many people, too many living beings, all converged here.
Finally, the divine light in the purple energy completely condensed. Strange symbols lit up one after another, turning the divine light into a long bridge that connected the sky and the ground, leading to the depths of the purple energy.
“Xia.”
This scene seemed to remind Zhu Youniang of something. The girl clenched Feng Xia’s hand tightly.
“Huh?”
“I won’t let anyone kill you.”
“… Huh?”
Youniang, is it appropriate for you to say such a thing… when the atmosphere is so nice?
It sounds as if I would not have long to live!
“Don’t worry, no one can kill me.”
Feng Xia patted the back of the girl’s hand and smiled. “If the Holy Son can’t do it, no one else can either.”
Zhu Youniang nodded and did not say anything else.
“I’m finally going to enter the second level! I finally made it!”
At this moment, Long Da’s excited voice rang out. Currently, he was as small as a speck of dust. Even with Feng Xia’s eyesight, he still had to carefully scan for half a day before he could discover Long Da’s location.
Feng Xia even had some doubts…
If Long Da continued to shrink like this, then his long-awaited marriage would never happen.
After all, it would be really too small.
No matter how one looked at it… it was too small.
Even if he used his hands and feet, or even his whole body, it was probably still far from enough.
“Fellow practitioner Feng… Are you thinking about something rude just now?”
Long Da’s voice suddenly paused suspiciously.
At that moment, he felt an inexplicable chill.
It was as if an invisible bloody mouth had secretly bared its fangs behind his back.
“Cough, cough, cough. No, no. I’m thinking that there are so many variables on the first level. The second level of the Demon Imperial Tombs might be different from what we imagined. There may be even more variables.”
“Fellow practitioner Feng, that means you don’t understand. The structure of the second level of the Demon Imperial Tombs is very special. It’s actually a dynamic array. It’s very common for space to be reversed inside. Therefore, there’s no such thing as the same or different…”
A dynamic array?
Feng Xia’s heart skipped a beat.
If he remembered correctly, the Spirit-Snatching Formation which Mo Lianque had mentioned back then, the one that had caused the decline of the spiritual energy of this world and was the culprit that caused the end of the era of magic at the end of 3,000 years… It seemed to be a terrifying array as well!
Could there be some connection between the two?
He felt a little uneasy and quickly transmitted his voice to Mo Lianque. However, Mo Lianque quickly shook his head. He also could not confirm any connection between the two.
“Speaking of which, fellow practitioner Long, you haven’t stepped onto the Heavenly Stairway… It shouldn’t have much of an impact, right?” Feng Xia remembered something else.
“You still have the cheek to ask!”
At the mention of this matter, Long Da could not help but be enraged. He shouted loudly, “I’ve come to the Heavenly Stairway several times, but when have I ever successfully ascended it? Haven’t I been beaten back by you?”
Thinking about it this way, it seemed like it was really my fault…
Long Da’s human form… no, even though the egg-shaped locator was very useful, he was not just a side character. He had sacrificed so much, so he should receive adequate compensation.
Feng Xia hesitated for a moment and probed, “Then do you want to make up for it and ascend the Heavenly Stairway once?”
“Please. The Demon Imperial Tombs isn’t something you can control. How can you make up for it just like that?”
Long Da rejected this suggestion on the spot. “Besides, do I look like I lack the accumulation in the dream? To be honest, I don’t lack opportunities. As long as I accumulate enough energy and nurture a powerful bloodline, when I’m born, I’ll naturally be…”
However, as he spoke, he clearly thought of something and could not continue.
There was only one thought in Long Da’s mind.
When exactly will I be born?!
“Damn it, when I go back from this world, I’ll definitely settle scores with that fellow! If I don’t beat her to tears, I’ll write my name upside down!”
What difference does it make whether you write your name backwards or not?
Feng Xia silently complained in his heart. At this moment, he suddenly shouted.
“The restrictions have been dispersed. We can go up to the second level now!”
The path to the second level was finally completely opened!
However, at this moment, many demon beasts looked over at Feng Xia.
It was obvious that even if Feng Xia did not take the initiative to speak, the scene of him killing the Holy Son was still deeply imprinted in their minds. It was eternal, as if it would never be forgotten.
“Let’s go. Since we’re here, then we’re fated to meet.”
In front of him, the demon beasts lined the two sides of the path. Feng Xia smiled instead. “Let’s all go and see what’s on the second level.”
Hearing this, countless demon beasts heaved a sigh of relief.
After all, this person was truly a bit ferocious. He even killed the Holy Son without hesitation. If he were to attack them, there would probably be bloodshed. None of them could stop him.
Fortunately, under normal circumstances, Feng Xia was still quite amiable.
“Fated to meet?” Wang Jue kicked Chi Yanli and muttered instinctively, “Speaking like someone.”
After Feng Xia finished speaking, his gaze returned to the long divine light bridge. He suddenly recalled that he had seen a similar long divine light bridge in the Ancient Forsaken Land!
It was the same dazzling light and the same ancient vicissitudes.
A divine bridge connected to the other shore!
Although the details were different, the long divine light bridge that pierced through the Ancient Forsaken Land looked similar!
“Can it be that there’s some unknown tacit understanding between the First Ruler and Patriarch Chenhai… or perhaps that Goddess Wu Guan?”
Feng Xia frowned and was about to walk forward.
At this moment, a blood-colored light suddenly shot out and rushed onto the long divine light bridge before everyone else.
No one had expected this scene to happen. It was too unexpected. They could only watch helplessly as the blood light soared into the sky and disappeared into the vast purple energy.
“Hahahahaha—”
Only a loud laugh came from the sky.
“Xia Donghai, I have to thank you for your teachings. From now on, the passage to the second floor… will be guarded by me!”
The voice laughed loudly and the bloody light spread out crazily in all directions. It was compatible with the vast purple energy, cutting off the path on the long divine light bridge.
“There’s not much time left. Those who want to enter the second level… prepare yourselves!”
“That guy is… Patriarch Muchen? I thought he was dead!”
“What, when did this old guy start eyeing this place?”
“Damn it, I would say he’s been eyeing this place since the beginning. Coupled with the fact that his strength has increased greatly in the Demon Imperial Tombs, he now has the confidence to block the passageway!”
Countless demon beasts instantly became worked up.
Patriarch Muchen was notorious even in the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons. Legend had it that his true form was a terrifying ancient treasure of the Blood Dao. It was a bloodthirsty item and only came to life after devouring a massive amount of blood over a long period of time.
Although his strength was not at the peak, the ancient treasure was incredibly tough and it was suspected to be made of divine gold and divine materials. Even if he was attacked by a group of people, he could still stand in an invincible position!
“This is really…”
Feng Xia shook his head speechlessly. Just as he was about to secretly activate the power of the Heavenly Stairway to suppress Patriarch Muchen there and then and resolve this boring farce, he suddenly heard Patriarch Muchen scream shrilly.
“You have to think carefully! The second level will only open for seven days. Even if a demon king comes, he might not be able to break through my defense. Meanwhile, treasures are everywhere on the second level. It can be said that… Wait! Where are the treasures?!”
In the blink of an eye, Patriarch Muchen’s voice became even more hysterical.
“Is there a mistake?”
“Why is there nothing here?”
“Damn it, where did the natural treasures go? There’s only ashes and wasteland here!”
