Chapter 2977 - 1099: Discussing the Dao While Seated, Demon Lord Inheritance (Part 2)
A glint of light flashed in Luo Chen’s eyes. "So, you also know about the Mystic Realm, my friend!"
Li Canghai laughed heartily, "That place is no secret to us. The inheritance of the Refining Heaven Demon Monarch’s array has many descriptions of the Mystic Realm’s customs and conditions."
Mentioning the four words "Refining Heaven Demon Monarch" caused a somewhat bizarre change in the atmosphere between them.
Both of them could actually be considered disciples of the Demon Monarch’s inheritance.
One received the inheritance of the Dao of Alchemy, the other the Path of Array inheritance.
Otherwise, how could a Rogue Cultivator and a North Sea Cultivator with no strong background break through to the Divinity Transformation Realm?
From this perspective, Luo Chen even had to call Li Canghai "senior brother."
Since the conversation had reached this point, Luo Chen didn’t hold back and directly approached one of the purposes of his visit.
"I wonder how much Friend Li knows about the Land of Fallen Demons in the Oblivion Sea?"
Li Canghai looked at him with a smirk, "You’ve been inside too, so why ask me?"
Luo Chen calmly replied, "When I entered back then, I was merely at the Golden Core Realm, without knowing the depths of heaven and earth. How could I perceive the whole picture of the land where the Demon Monarch fell?"
Li Canghai was taken aback for a moment.
He suddenly remembered that Luo Chen, whom he had always regarded as an equal, was actually just a small Golden Core Cultivator three hundred years ago.
Thinking of this, he was even more amazed by Luo Chen’s outstanding talent.
He formed his core within a hundred years, consolidated his infant soul within two hundred years, and now, not yet five hundred years old, he had already transformed into a god.
The longevity he had left was truly enviable.
Shaking his head, Li Canghai forced a bitter smile, "When I entered, I was only at the Middle Stage Nascent Soul, and what I saw of the Demon Monarch’s old site was just the tip of the iceberg."
Then, as if a successful man recalling the hardships of the past, he talked about the events of those years.
"The Oblivion Sea is said to be born once every millennium, but in fact, it’s a general reference, specifically estimated to be about fifteen hundred years."
"In fifteen hundred years, the Land of Fallen Demons has been opened four times. The fifth time, by the days counted, should be soon. However, the Spirit-absorbing Great Formation of the Oblivion Sea was destroyed by a powerful member of the Demon Clan, making it uncertain whether the fifth opening will occur as scheduled."
"When it first opened, I was not yet born, but I gathered some intel from hearsay. At that time, it was too strange, and coupled with the unclear situation of the Oblivion Sea, very few ventured to explore it."
"By the second opening, North Sea Cultivators had gained considerable understanding, and a group of cultivators with good Dao Cultivation went in. Few returned, but each had their gains, arousing envy."
"Thus, by the third opening, the number of entrants was the largest in history! It was during that time that I entered the Land of Fallen Demons."
"During that time, the Yuan Mo Sect organized a vast number of people, led by the Blood Sea Elder Ancestor, assisted by the twelve Nascent Soul Elders of the Demon Sect, and the quantity of Golden Core Cultivators exceeded ten thousand. The grandeur of the formation was astonishing. Besides this, among the North Sea Human Cultivators, apart from me, there were other famous practitioners. The Devil Dao Giant Hentian Old Monster, the Great Cultivator Wei Changkong, the Independent Practitioner Feng Ling. The Demon Clan side was equally impressive, including Bai Xingong, the Coral Lord, and the Strong Demon Flood Dragon, among others."
"But the exploration results that time caused a great shock in the North Sea!"
With a look of lingering fear, Li Canghai recounted the fates of most people.
Just the initial test of Li Wangtian made a large number of Lower Order Cultivators accompanying them lost within.
Luo Chen also remembered this vividly.
If it weren’t for his firm Dao Heart and his rich experience from frequently encountering Heart’s Test Obsession during Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment stages, he might have found it difficult to pass the Illusion Realm’s test of Li Wangtian.
Then came the resource-rich Five Elements Heaven, where numerous strong cultivators engaged in fierce battles for ample resources.
The Demon Clan’s strong Coral Lord was defeated by Fengling Hermit and then swallowed by Exotic Beasts. Wei Changkong and Bai Xingong had a battle, and both were terribly wounded. The Devil Dao Giant Hentian Old Monster even single-handedly killed three Yuan Mo Sect Elders and was slain in anger by the Blood Sea Elder Ancestor...
In the final Heritage Land of Ming Zhao Heaven, the injured Wei Changkong and Bai Xingong both fell. The Independent Practitioner Fengling Hermit had terrible luck and was ambushed by the Strong Demon Flood Dragon, who fancied the Coral Lord, before entering Ming Zhao Heaven, causing him to fall into the Falling Demon Abyss. Although it is unknown how Fengling Hermit later escaped the Demon Abyss, after emerging, he became mad, thus earning the title of one of the Three Great Independent Cultivators, known as Feng Independent Cultivator, sometimes sane, sometimes insane.
And among these people, the biggest event was the Blood Sea Elder Ancestor perishing within Ming Zhao Heaven!
Because of his death, the Demon Clan, already teetering on the brink, launched an idea, thus starting a war to annihilate the Yuan Mo Sect.
It was also because of this, coupled with the heavy losses that time, that led to the diminished enthusiasm of North Sea High-Order Cultivators for the fourth opening of the Land of Fallen Demons.
Everyone knows it’s extremely dangerous, with even Great Cultivators and Divine Transformation Great Power easily perishing inside; who would dare to risk it?
Except perhaps for those whose lifespan was nearing its end, those with ulterior motives, or the Lower Order Cultivators desperate to break through realms, fewer cultivators ventured into the Land of Fallen Demons for the fourth time.
After hearing Li Canghai’s recollections, Luo Chen couldn’t help but be secretly astonished.
He had thought that three hundred years ago, when he entered the Land of Fallen Demons, the lineup was already luxurious, gathering three of the four great powers of that time in the North Sea along with a group of strong Demon Cultivators.
Yet he didn’t expect that six hundred years ago was even more terrifying.
The Nascent Souls were numerous, Great Cultivators and Great Demon Emperors were everywhere, and even a Divine Transformation Great Power went in.
