Chapter 341: Summoning the Yao Ancestor
In the western region of the Demon Realm, there is a peculiar place known as Shayuan. It is said that this place is transformed from the remains of a supreme Yao Ancestor. Although the truth of this legend is uncertain, the wonders of Shayuan are undeniable. The area is perpetually shrouded in Killing Intent, extending for hundreds of miles, and the deeper one goes, the denser the Killing Intent becomes. Even Holy Level Demon Lords rarely venture into its depths, and few Divine Realm Demon Emperors dare to enter.
However, this Killing Intent is quite favored by some practitioners of the Law of Slaughter. For this reason, Shayuan is not entirely desolate; many powerful beings come and go almost daily.
Regardless of whether those entering and exiting Shayuan are Demon Lords below the Divine Realm or Demon Emperors above it, none dare to approach a certain Mountain Valley at its center. They avoid even the surrounding areas due to the presence of an individual they cannot provoke—someone whose mere cough could shake the entire western region!
A flash of red light darted through Shayuan's entrance and swiftly penetrated deep within, covering dozens of miles in an instant. The dense Killing Intent seemed to fear this red light, retreating hastily without daring to obstruct it.
Before an ordinary Mountain Valley, the red light finally came to a halt. As it faded, a young man around twenty years old gradually appeared.
He had long crimson hair and wore a red brocade robe. With red lips and white teeth, he was indeed a strikingly handsome youth. However, dangerous red light flickered around him, emanating an aura of supremacy akin to that of a long-reigning deity.
This handsome young man was none other than Jingjing, the direct ruler of the Black Shaman Domain.
The moment he revealed himself, black mist surged outside the Mountain Valley, and figures began to materialize—over ten individuals whose terrifying auras clearly indicated they were top-tier experts above mid-Divine Realm. The leader among them had even reached late-stage Divine Realm.
"It turns out Lord Zhuque is about to enter Shayuan."
The speaker was the leader, a Purple-Eyed Man covered in scales that shimmered with purple radiance. Although he wore no armor, his purple-scaled body provided defense comparable to that of divine artifacts. A fierce aura radiated from him; even a typical Pinnacle of Divine Realm expert would feel apprehensive in his presence.
"Hehe, Crimson Serpent, when did you become so polite with me? You didn’t call me that back in the day; just stick with what you used to call me... Oh? We haven't seen each other for just ten years, and you've already broken through to late-stage Divine Realm? You didn't consume some rare elixir again, did you?"
Jingjing smirked slightly as he stepped forward toward the Crimson Dragon Demon Emperor. At that moment, he suddenly sensed a change in the Crimson Dragon Demon Emperor's aura and spoke with mild surprise.
"Hehe, indeed! The Demon Emperor bestowed upon me the Nine Hells Demon Lotus from beneath Shayuan; otherwise, I wouldn't have achieved such a breakthrough in just ten years. But speaking of which, I really must thank you; otherwise, how could I have had the opportunity to follow behind the Demon Emperor back then? I wouldn't have achieved what I have today..."
At this point, genuine gratitude flickered in the Crimson Dragon Demon Emperor's eyes. Years ago, he was merely a Holy Level Demon Lord; reaching Divine Realm was his greatest aspiration. He never imagined achieving such success—advancing to late-stage Divine Realm in just over four hundred years was something he had never dared to dream.
"Thank me for what? This is your own merit. If it weren't for your innate talent and loyalty being recognized by Brother Sun Zhe, he wouldn't have nurtured you like this. You should work hard; who knows? It might not be long before Brother Sun Zhe sends you out to lead an army into battle... Well then, I won't delay any longer; I'm heading in now. We'll chat more when I come out."
Jingjing smiled faintly and spoke as if hinting at something, then walked into the Mountain Valley. As his figure disappeared, more than a dozen figures led by the Crimson Dragon Demon Emperor flashed and re-concealed themselves at the entrance of the Mountain Valley to prevent any idle individuals from entering.
...
A dense Killing Intent slowly spread out, and a young man with black hair walked out from the black mist with his hands behind his back. Dressed in an ordinary black robe, he seemed to have merged with the surrounding Killing Intent. He did not emit any aura, but every movement contained Earth Power, especially the flickering Black Vortex on his Forehead. Although it was unclear what lay within, the terrifying aura emanating from it could make countless peak experts tremble.
"Hiss... Brother Sun Zhe, your aura seems to... seem to have become much stronger..."
Looking incredulously at Sun Zhe before her, Jingjing found it hard to believe. Facing Sun Zhe now felt like standing before an insurmountable mountain. Even with his late-stage Divine Realm cultivation and Vermilion Bird Bloodline, he felt a bit shaken. Although he had felt pressure before, it was nothing compared to now.
"Hehe, just a slight breakthrough," Sun Zhe said with a faint smile, unconcerned. There were some things that Jingjing would not understand until she reached that level.
"Forget it, I’m not like you who dares to directly absorb Killing Intent. Breaking through to the peak of Divine Realm is not that easy. If it weren't for all these True Essence of Spirit Medicine available for me to use freely, I probably wouldn't even reach the late stage of Divine Realm by now. To reach the peak of Divine Realm will take me at least a few hundred more years."
At this point, Jingjing couldn't help but feel a bit disheartened. At their level, while some special True Essence of Spirit Medicine had significant effects, personal comprehension was equally important. His speed in comprehending Fire Law was not slow, but it was completely incomparable to Sun Zhe's comprehension of Killing Law.
"Well, taking it step by step and solidifying your foundation is also good. I asked you to investigate the spatial gates of the Demon Realm; do you have any news?" Sun Zhe did not dwell on this issue and suddenly changed the subject. He remembered the five-hundred-year agreement from years ago; over four hundred years had passed, and time was running short.
"I’ve sent many experts to various places in the Demon Realm to gather information. Although we’ve received quite a bit of news, most of it is unreliable. The most credible information points to one location that might allow us to lead an army into Nine Continents and possibly even enter other continents."
"What place?" Sun Zhe's gaze sharpened, and a hint of seriousness flashed in his eyes. This location was crucial for them to turn the tide and help Nine Continents regain control.
"The Reincarnation Sea in Wind Spirit Demon Domain, which falls under the influence of White Serpent Demon Emperor."
Upon hearing this name, Sun Zhe fell silent. He had hoped that this place would be within his Black Shaman Domain's influence, but that was clearly unlikely now. The White Serpent Demon Emperor was one of the Seven Great Demon Emperors in the entire Demon Realm and had long reached the Pinnacle of Divine Realm. His subordinates included countless Supreme Combat Bodies serving him, and his power was certainly not inferior to Sun Zhe's.
However, that was not what troubled him most. The reason he had never launched an attack on the other six demon domains was entirely due to the existence behind those domains that he dared not provoke—not just any Pinnacle of Divine Realm Super Strong Being but rather each demon domain concealed a Yao Ancestor.
Yao Ancestors were the true supreme beings controlling the entire Demon Realm. Although they usually did not interfere in trivial matters, Sun Zhe dared not touch their sensitive spots. The difference between Pinnacle of Divine Realm and Pangu Ancestor seemed slight, but Yao Ancestors at the Realm of the Ancestor Deity could easily slaughter hundreds or thousands of Pinnacle of Divine Realm Demon Emperors. This was not something others told him; he had personally experienced it on the Void Battlefield years ago.
"There's one more thing..." At this point, Jingjing's expression couldn't help but show a hint of seriousness.
"What is it?"
Sensing the change in Jingjing's demeanor, Sun Zhe couldn't help but furrow his brows slightly. Now that the entire Western Region of the Demon Realm was under their control, there weren't many matters that could make Jingjing take them so seriously.
"I'm afraid you have to leave your seclusion this time because the Golden Thunder Demon Ancestor wants to see you!"
As soon as the words were spoken, Jingjing revealed a trace of helplessness. Although they had countless top-tier experts serving them, capable of gathering millions of troops with a wave of their hand, even an ordinary Pinnacle of Divine Realm Demon Emperor would have to submit. Yet, when faced with these two simple words, they had no power to resist at all, for these two words represented the supreme rules of the entire Demon Realm that could not be defied; no one dared to offend them!
"This Golden Thunder Demon Ancestor should be the one behind the Azure Dragon Demon Domain in the east, right?"
Taking a deep breath, Sun Zhe's eyes flickered slightly. In fact, he had long understood that his grand development of power could not go unnoticed by the Yao Ancestor. If it were in the past, it wouldn't have mattered much, but now that they had dominated the entire Western Region, the Yao Ancestor would inevitably seek them out. The fact that he was able to wait until now was beyond Sun Zhe's expectations.
"Eventually, I will have to face this. I might as well go see what this Golden Thunder Demon Ancestor has in mind..."
What Sun Zhe feared most was not that the Golden Thunder Demon Ancestor would demand his submission, but rather that this ancestor would see through his identity as someone not of the demon race. It was intolerable for any race to allow an outsider to command countless powerful members of their own kind, and it was something that no Yao Ancestor would ever agree to.
