Da Xuan Martial Saint

Chapter 1139: Chapter 560: Ascendance to Godhood!

Ancestral Demon Realm.

A rugged and towering Black Mountain stands between the Power of Heaven and Earth, shrouded in chaotic demon mist, as if each craggy rock is built from the heads of living beings, all bearing expressions of terror and fear.

Follow this mountain path upward to the end, where the sharp steep Black Rock pierces the Heavens Vault like an upside-down sword tip. This is the mountain summit and also a throne, upon which is seated a towering figure, a sound at least several tens of yards tall, clad in crimson armor, with each breath emitting an aura that seems to permeate deep into the Void!

He is one of the Divine Monarch Level beings of the Demon Clan.

Shang Mang Demon Monarch!

At this moment, beneath the throne of Shang Mang Demon Monarch, three True Demons of Divine Realm are crawling from afar: Mang, Wang, and Hui. Although they also exist in the Divine Realm, in front of a Seventh Layer Heaven Demon Monarch, they dare not show any arrogance.

Even Mang, who is often arrogant and reckless before Wang and Hui, is fully restraining his own aura, not allowing a trace of it to spill out, maintaining a posture of single-knee kneeling, and cautiously discussing matters.

Mang quickly recounted the events.

Yet Shang Mang Demon Monarch’s expression did not change at all, merely watching the three coldly.

"...Demon Monarch, the opponent already possesses Divine Under Eighth Rank strength, likely to soon challenge the God Realm, and once stepping into the God Realm they will at least reach the Second Layer Heaven, relying on the Original World’s Power of the Earth. It’s already somewhat troublesome to deal with; should we consider changing the target?"

Seeing Shang Mang Demon Monarch remain silent, Hui cautiously asked.

This question finally caused Shang Mang Demon Monarch’s gaze to slowly drop from above, and merely with the descent of this glance, a terrifying pressure immediately froze Hui’s entire body, making every part of his limbs tremble.

Though Mang and Wang were not directly stared at, they equally felt that kind of terrifying pressure, making them all too frightened to speak.

"Ha."

After an indeterminate amount of time, Shang Mang Demon Monarch finally made an indifferent chuckle.

His eyes deep and reflective of Mang and Wang’s figures, they seemed incomparably small in his eyes.

"Born from an uncivilized world, Divine Under Eighth Rank is indeed decent, and yet... when did a mere living being emerge that necessitates our clan to retreat three paces?"

This sentence, containing both authority and indifference, instantly made Mang, Wang, and the others shudder.

"Go down."

Shang Mang Demon Monarch said calmly.

"...Yes."

After exchanging a quick glance, Mang, Wang, and the others dared not speak further, bowed their heads in response, and then withdrew.

Shang Mang Demon Monarch’s gaze remained on the three until their figures vanished, then he slowly raised his head, looking up at the Heavens Vault, with a flash of profound and eerie light in his eyes.

Fan Gu Ancient Domain belongs to the Fan Gu Divine Monarch; their attempt to invade a border world of Fan Gu Ancient Domain, even if it is an uncivilized edge world, is actually a provocation to the Fan Gu Divine Monarch.

But why do they still seek to do so?

Because,

This is actually a probe against the Fan Gu Divine Monarch!

As far as he knows, Fan Gu Divine Monarch’s true body hasn’t appeared for a long time; what has surfaced on all sides is merely the Divine Power Avatars of the Fan Gu Divine Monarch.

So, is there a problem with the true body of the Fan Gu Divine Monarch?

Endless Void, vast Universe, dangerous lands aplenty, even those of Nine Layer Heavens can possibly become trapped unable to escape. Has the true body of Fan Gu Divine Monarch fallen into such a perilous place, trapped therein?!

This is the crucial matter they wish to know!

Expanding borders, invading the Da Xuan World... none of these truly matter.

This is merely a probe against the Fan Gu Divine Monarch.

Should the Fan Gu Divine Monarch have no reaction to their invasion of Fan Gu Ancient Domain’s border, even further expansion, without any response, then he would reasonably ascertain that the true body of the Fan Gu Divine Monarch is profoundly troubled!

And should this truly be the case, not only they, the Demon Clan, but even the major forces from the surrounding space domains will likely come to seize a share; the Fan Gu Divine Monarch would pay a heavy price to protect the Fan Gu Ancient Domain!

This is their real goal!

As for the Da Xuan World?

A worthless uncivilized world situated on the edge of the Fan Gu Ancient Domain, it never mattered in his eyes.

The only slight surprise was that an uncivilized edge world spawned someone who could discover the embryonic form of Void Dao and reach Divine Under Eighth Rank, which is indeed commendable.

Moreover, according to Mang and others’ descriptions, the opponent possesses a Divine Weapon of the Void Dao, possibly already attracting the attention of major powers within Fan Gu Ancient Domain, which is precisely what he desires!

This way,

Mang, Wang, and others’ crusade against the Da Xuan World might not be so easy and could spark a fierce battle.

And with the attention of major powers, the news is bound to reach the ears of the Fan Gu Divine Monarch, and by then, whatever response the Fan Gu Divine Monarch makes, be it indifference or a forceful appearance urging the Demon Clan to withdraw, they can discern some of the situation of the Fan Gu Divine Monarch!

If the true body of Fan Gu Divine Monarch is unharmed, then everything will remain as it is; the Demon Clan would merely be lower-level Divine Realm beings causing some disturbances in a border world, at most using the deaths of Mang and Wang to quell the anger of Fan Gu Divine Monarch.
