Chapter 936: Chapter 496: Eighth Life: Demon King Treasure Pill, Secret Realm Upheaval!
Spirit Void Cave Mansion, core area.
Behold an ancient palace, proudly standing atop a ten-thousand-foot peak.
Majestic and grand, reaching the heights of heaven.
From afar.
It resembles a Cloud Immortal Palace, evoking a yearning to step inside and uncover its mysteries.
This palace is precisely where the Celestial Mandate Inheritance lies, the core of the Spirit Void Cave Mansion.
However, this place is guarded by Void Dao Laws, capable of confusing true reality.
If an ordinary prodigy wishes to enter the palace, they must not only overcome the trials of the core area and defeat several Nirvana Great Demons.
They must also comprehend a strand of Void Dao Laws within a limited time to gain Master Lingxu’s recognition and obtain the Celestial Mandate Inheritance he left behind!
If the first two conditions might be achievable by some prodigies.
Then the final challenge is almost impossible.
After all, Void Dao Laws are powers only accessible to Sect Leader level existences.
Let alone ordinary Soul Palace Martial Artists, even if a Celestial Destiny Great Power were to rashly attempt, it would be the same as courting death.
Yet Master Lingxu requires a group of Soul Palace prodigies to comprehend a strand of Void Dao Laws within three months, isn’t this sending them to their deaths?
Thus, over the years, even though the Spirit Void Cave Mansion has been explored dozens of times.
No one has ever managed to pass this test to date.
But just as the majority of prodigies are still fighting fiercely in the inner area, there is a group advancing unobstructed, stealthily approaching the towering peak.
"Your Highness, the Void Dao Laws are mysterious and unfathomable, even Celestial Destiny Great Powers cannot comprehend them. Is it not too risky for you to personally proceed to Lingxu Palace?"
"Why not let your subordinate scout the way first and eliminate some dangers for the Young Master."
A burly man knelt on one knee, looking at the young man in a Python Robe before him, speaking with utmost respect.
"No need."
"The final test of Lingxu Palace challenges the inheritor’s comprehension and talent; you lack the necessary comprehension, attempting will only be sending you to your deaths."
The young man in a Python Robe spoke calmly, with a royal dignity that didn’t need anger to exude authority.
For this person is none other than the Third Prince, Zhou Xun!
"Other forces are a scattered mess, nothing to fear; the only ones to be cautious of are the Eastern Sea Demon Race."
"You all remain here, preventing them from interfering with me."
Zhou Xun advised a couple of lines before stepping forward and climbing toward the towering peak one step at a time!
...
On the other side.
A dozen burly and oddly-shaped Demon Race strongmen were standing by a clear pool.
The secluded pool spanned a thousand feet, the water was clear and cold; although it hadn’t frozen, the temperature was frighteningly low, emitting terrifying chill.
If an ordinary Soul Palace Martial Artist approached rashly, they would be frozen into an ice sculpture instantly!
"Eastern Sea Demon Race Yao Hong, paying respects to Ink Flood Dragon senior, I kindly ask senior to appear!"
A demon race youth with two horns and dressed in a purple robe gazed at the cold pool emitting wisps of chill, calling out loudly.
As soon as the words fell.
The previously calm water surface suddenly stirred with ripples, as if some colossal creature was about to emerge from the depths.
Soon after.
Under Yao Hong’s solemn gaze, the cold pool water burst open, a shadow shot up from the pool bottom like lightning, finally appearing before everyone!
The creature was an Ink Flood Dragon over a hundred feet long, its thick serpentine body majestic as a mountain, its surface covered with palm-sized dark green scales.
These scales gleamed with an oily sheen, as if made of Immortal Gold Divine Materials, possessing indestructible defense.
And atop its triangular snake head were a pair of scarlet vertical pupils, filled with fierce and violent aggression.
Its gaze sinister and terrifying, flickering with cold ghostly light, any ordinary mortal meeting its gaze would likely die of fright on the spot.
This Ink Flood Dragon’s presence was terrifying, having shed its old form, reaching the Nirvana Perfection Realm, evidently just a step away from entering the Celestial Fate Realm!
"Are you a direct lineage descendant of the East Sea Flood Dragon line?"
"The Eastern Sea Demon Race and our Spirit Void Fierce Beast Lineage have always kept to ourselves; why have you come seeking me today?"
The Ink Flood Dragon spat out a scarlet serpent tongue, sizing up Yao Hong before speaking in human tongue.
It’s said that the East Sea Flood Dragon lineage was once a descendant of the True Dragons, even now with only a trace of Dragon Race blood remaining, it’s still enough to command myriad Sea Race and reign over this sea region.
"Yao Hong pays respects to the senior, this is a gift and secret letter from my father to you."
Facing a Great Demon on the verge of transforming into a Celestial Destiny Demon King, even with Yao Hong’s noble status, he dared not act arrogantly.
As he spoke, he immediately produced a Jade Talisman and Demon Pill, presenting them with both hands before the Ink Flood Dragon.
"This is... a Demon King Treasure Pill?"
The demon pill was translucent and flawless, only the size of a dragon eye, yet the terrifying energy contained within moved even the Ink Flood Dragon.
As the king of the Fierce Beast lineage, it is the oldest being in this Secret Realm, living for over a thousand years.
Due to the suppression of Void Dao Laws here, its cultivation cannot progress further, no matter the cost, unable to advance half a step.
But if it could refine this Treasure Pill, it surely could quickly step into the Half-step Celestial Destiny Realm, and even after further cultivation, becoming a Celestial Destiny Demon King might not be impossible!
"Truly fitting for the East Sea Flood Dragon lineage, such a grand gesture; but nothing’s without reason, let me see what scheme you bring."
