195: The real demon

“Alas, I somewhat miss our Tai Xuan Realm!”

“This world truly has endless wars!”

On the Martial Emperor battlefield, many Martial Artists from the Tai Xuan Realm felt somewhat weary.

They recalled how in the Tai Xuan Realm, their Heavenly God Hall stood above all beings.

No matter where they went, they were always the focus of attention, admired by all.

But in this world, a Martial Artist is truly worthless; even if they die, no one cares!

They were utterly insignificant!

“Hmph, truly short-sighted! Always thinking only of a comfortable life, yet failing to see the Opportunity in this world!”

“You must know that this world has many existences surpassing Martial Gods, which means that in the future, we might have the chance to surpass the former God King Tang Hao. Isn't this an immense Opportunity?”

There were also those who snorted coldly, more interested in this vast world, hoping that one day they could Breakthrough to a higher Realm and surpass the former God King!

“Alas, I wonder how the Tai Xuan Realm is now?”

“The Demon Race is so ferocious; their invasion of our world will surely cause large-scale massacres. We truly have become the sinners of the Tai Xuan Realm!”

Someone sighed.

If they hadn't wanted to conquer other worlds back then, such a thing wouldn't have happened!

“I have internal news from our world. Although the casualties were heavy, the situation has stabilized!”

“It is said that a Chu Family Beast God entered our world and established an Imperial Dynasty, currently resisting the Demon Race powerhouses!”

“I just don't know if we can go back. I am willing to contribute to my Tai Xuan Realm!”

......

At this moment, the most distressed were the other Forbidden Grounds besides Lingxu Grotto-Heaven.

Their Half-Step Sky Opening Realm Ancient Ancestors had died at the hands of the Chu Family Beast God.

Naturally, it was impossible for them to bow to the Chu Family now.

But should they continue to ally with Hell?

That Golden Monk from Hell seemed strange no matter how one looked at him.

He was clearly tainted with Evil Qi. Allying with him would truly be like playing with fire, and they might even die at his hands in the end.

Moreover, an Alliance is built on the premise of equal strength between both sides.

Now, these major Forbidden Grounds no longer even had Half-Step Sky Opening Realm experts.

How could they form an Alliance?

It probably wouldn't be an Alliance, but rather an annexation!

And the most crucial point was that Hell's Half-step Creation Realm expert didn't seem to be a match for the Chu Family!

What should they do?

Choose neutrality?

Without strength, neutrality was simply impossible!

“There is only one chance; we must discuss it carefully!”

The leaders of several Forbidden Grounds were in great pain.

If they didn't choose well, only death awaited them in the future!

Inside the Dragon Emperor Palace, Long Yuan looked at the Forbidden Grounds and ancient worlds whose entrances had been moved into the barrier.

He murmured to himself, “Once I completely Breakthrough to the Creation Realm, I will completely merge the Forbidden Grounds and ancient worlds with the Human Realm!”

There were many Opportunities within those Forbidden Grounds and ancient worlds that could compensate for the Opportunities plundered by Hell from the Human Realm over the years!

If they were completely integrated, over time, this land would surely burst with new vitality!

Several days later, Chu Jingyue came to see Long Yuan again, because three more Forbidden Grounds wanted to join their side!

“What do you think about this matter?” Long Yuan asked him.

“Beast God, the Ancient Ancestors of those three Forbidden Grounds once formed a battle formation with the Demon Race and fought against you. It's clear they had already chosen the Demon Race and Hell. If they suddenly defect and join us now, they might become the enemy's inside agents. We must be cautious!”

If it were peacetime, it would be fine.

But now was a sensitive time of conflict between the two sides.

If they became inside agents for the Demon Race and Hell, it could cause significant losses!

“In that case, you can refuse them!” Long Yuan said indifferently.

Anyway, those worlds would eventually merge with the Human Realm.

What he valued were the resources within the Forbidden Grounds.

As for the lives and deaths of the beings within, he was indifferent, as their descendants naturally had to bear the consequences of the choices their ancestors made!

“Yes!” Chu Jingyue nodded, and after returning, he directly refused the Forbidden Ground envoys.

This caused several major Forbidden Grounds to sigh, such a result was also within their expectations.

“From this day forward, completely close the Forbidden Ground entrances and no longer participate in any wars!” The Ancient Ancestors of several Forbidden Grounds immediately ordered.

Perhaps now, all they could do was lie low, hoping that neither the Chu Family nor the Demon Race and Hell would notice them, allowing them to quietly pass through this dangerous period!

When the strong individuals from both sides had suffered heavy casualties, it would not be too late for them to re-emerge!

But it was not so easy for them to withdraw.

Especially since the entrance to the Demon Realm and Human Realm was located within the Time Cave Forbidden Ground.

When the Demon Race began to demonize, the contracts they had made with the Forbidden Ground had already begun to weaken, and some of the Demon Race had already started to attack them!

Facing others' attacks, the Martial Artists of the Years Cave could not allow themselves to be slaughtered and could only retaliate.

Now, the world where the Years Cave was located was in complete chaos.

The two sides engaged in battle and slaughter!

But unfortunately, the Demon Race was powerful, and had a Demon Lord overseeing them.

While the strongest in the Years Cave was only at the Boundless Realm, how could they be a match for the Demon Race?

Boom!

Crimson Evil Qi erupted from a Boundless Realm Demon Race member, instantly engulfing a Years Cave Boundless Realm Ancient Ancestor.

In an instant, that Evil Qi, like a fierce venomous snake, drilled into his body through his mouth, nose, and ears, beginning to ravenously devour the flesh, blood, bone marrow, and other energies within his body.

Ah!

A piercing, desperate scream that echoed through the sky came from the mouth of the Years Cave Ancient Ancestor.

His body struggled violently, his limbs seemingly twitching.

Especially on his face, neck, and arms, one could clearly see something squirming within.

However, his body was firmly suppressed by the Demonic Qi, unable to move.

He could only let the opponent absorb the energy within his body.

In just a moment, with a bang, the body of that Boundless Realm Ancient Ancestor fell to the ground.

But by this time, he had completely lost his life force.

His body had lost its divinity, turning into a pile of decaying bones, as if it had undergone countless years of weathering!

“Ah! Truly comfortable!”

The red Evil Qi returned from the opponent's body to the Demon Race Boundless Realm powerhouse's body, bringing back a large amount of energy and Cultivation.

With a boom, an even stronger aura erupted from his body.

After absorbing a large amount of flesh and blood energy from powerful Martial Artists, his Cultivation actually Broke through a minor Realm!

“Hahaha, millions of years of painstaking Cultivation are not as fast as devouring living beings in a short time to Cultivate!”

“This state seems pretty good too!”

Looking at the crimson Evil Qi on his body, he liked it more and more!

After all, everyone wanted to quickly Breakthrough to a higher Realm and stand above all beings!

Not only him, but many Demon Race members, after experiencing the benefits brought by the Evil Qi, excitedly roared to the sky.

This Evil Qi seemed to allow them to quickly Breakthrough regardless of individual Aptitude, as long as they continuously devoured Martial Artists!

And the only thing to be concerned about was that the more concentrated the Evil Qi, the faster the devouring speed, and the less waste!

For a time, all Demon Race members no longer judged Aptitude and status by the Bloodline hierarchy.

Instead, they judged seniority by the concentration of Evil Qi.

But this also led to another problem: the Demon Race themselves began to kill each other, devouring and plundering each other's Evil Qi and Cultivation!

At this moment, they seemed to have transformed into true Evil Demons!
