Chapter 729 - 718: Demon Emperor

[Received C-level Achievement Medal: Shocking Chang Xian.]

[Received C-level Achievement Medal: Shocking Dahong.]

...

[Note: As the Guardians of the Demon Emperor Palace, they were originally in slumber, but the irrigation of Demon Blood and the sounds of fierce battle awakened them.

Their main task is to guard the Demon Emperor Palace. Therefore, they did not rush to kill you.

When you intruded upon this place, they saw you and decided they must kill you.

Humans and Demons are irreconcilable.

This is the rule in their understanding!]

Upon hearing the prompt sound.

Ding Ling was startled.

Whether it was Limu, Chang Xian, or Dahong.

They were all trusted generals under the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan.

Unexpectedly, they have now become Guardians of the Demon Emperor Palace!

Ding Ling glanced at Limu and said:

"Now, can you tell me why you assist demons in their tyranny?"

Limu’s face was deathly pale, and the clarity in his eyes grew dimmer. Just as Ding Ling finished speaking, his eyes were overtaken by emotions such as ferocity and bloodthirst, indicating he had completely succumbed to madness.

Roar!

He roared at Ding Ling.

No different from the Celestial Soldiers and Generals and other demons outside.

Ding Ling looked at the others.

It was the same with them.

So he simply dealt with them one by one with a palm strike.

"It seems only by reaching the Golden Core Stage, can one maintain clarity of mind?"

Ding Ling thought of the Nine Heavens Profound Lady, Wind God, and Chiyou.

Based on the current situation, he drew a conclusion.

Wind God had not reached Core Formation, but his level must have reached the Golden Core Realm!

"Could it be that Wind God was able to arrive at the battlefield so quickly because he was sealed or buried there?"

Ding Ling glanced at the prompt panel.

As expected.

The annotation for Wind God’s Achievement Medal explained it quite clearly.

Ding Ling further inferred and came to a conclusion:

Wind God was indeed buried beneath that area.

He is also the Palace Master of a Demon Palace there.

The so-called Demon Palace Masters are four in number, each suppressing the southeast, southwest, northwest, and northeast regions.

Wind God suppresses the east and is the Palace Master of the Eastern Demon Palace.

And here, the Demon Emperor Palace?

Is the core realm.

The place where the true lord of the Magic Realm, the Demon Emperor, resides.

Even the Palace Masters of the Demon Palaces must obey his orders!

"Demon Emperor?"

Ding Ling raised an eyebrow and gripped the hilt of the Human Emperor Saber, shrinking the ground to an inch and arriving instantly at the Demon Emperor Palace.

At the very moment of arrival.

Ding Ling suddenly heard a voice:

"Ding Ling, come back quickly!"

The voice was clear and pleasant.

Very familiar.

It was the voice of the Female Drought Demon.

Ding Ling was astonished.

Before him appeared a door formed suddenly by water waves in the void.

"Go in quickly."

Ding Ling hesitated with uncertainty.

After all, no one knew if this was a trap set by someone impersonating the Female Drought Demon!

The Female Drought Demon’s voice had a tone of anxiety:

"If you don’t leave now, once the Demon Emperor takes action, you’re as good as dead."

As if to verify the truth of her words.

Bang!

The Demon Emperor Palace shook violently three times, and a massive hand that could blot out the sky reached out, slapping towards Ding Ling as if to smash him.

Ding Ling felt suffocated for a moment.

Daring not to hesitate any longer, he dove into the direction of the water wave gate.

Slam!

Almost immediately after Ding Ling entered the gate, with a loud bang, the hand struck heavily at the spot where Ding Ling had just stood, causing the Demon Emperor Palace to tremble wildly again, as if unable to withstand this power and about to collapse at any moment.

For a long while.

The Demon Emperor Palace finally regained calm, and a soft sigh came from deep within the palace:

"What a little rascal. To have inherited the legacies of the Great Sun Buddha, Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan, and Chiyou, how troublesome!"

...

...

Plop!

Ding Ling’s vision went dark and bright.

Upon looking again, he found he had already arrived at the familiar Otherworldly Space.

Seated not far in front of him was an extraordinarily beautiful woman, forming seals with both hands.

The woman’s face was extremely pale. Seeing Ding Ling emerge, she released the seal, Bang! The water wave gate also dispersed into star points.

"Ding Ling."

The woman took a deep breath, then looked at Ding Ling with radiant eyes, her face full of joy:

"Did you succeed?!"

The woman was the Female Drought Demon.

Ding Ling felt great admiration for her, hence he spoke with respect:

"Yes, senior."

"Good, good, good!"

The Female Drought Demon said ’good’ thrice, with a face of satisfaction she said:

"Now Jiuzhou has hope. Ding Ling, you truly are the master of the Xuanyuan Divine Sword and the Nuwa Stone! You lived up to the high expectations and succeeded in a short time, not to mention, it appears your cultivation..."

The Female Drought Demon took a breath:

"Has unexpectedly reached the Martial Arts Golden Core Realm, in such a short time?!"

[Received C-level Achievement Medal: You’ve earned the Female Drought Demon’s high recognition.]

[Note: Your success, your cultivation, and your deeds in the Demon Realm have all received the Female Drought Demon’s heartfelt admiration!]

The Female Drought Demon is also C-level.

It seems her current cultivation should also be at the Golden Core Realm?

Ding Ling couldn’t see through her.

He estimated her realm should be very high; otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to fathom her with his First-Grade Golden Core.

Thinking of this.

Ding Ling directly asked about her cultivation.

The Female Drought Demon didn’t hide it, saying:

"Different dimensions, different worlds, the maximum level of cultivation and martial power they can accommodate is naturally different. The Otherworldly Space where you entered the Loulan Ruins has the same upper limit as the human world."

She paused, then continued:

"Furthermore, the Sword Realm, Nine Void Realm, Demon Realm, Mountain and Sea Realm, and others all have the same upper limit as the human world.

While the Divine Realm, Celestial Realm, and Demon Realm have an extremely high upper limit, reaching the Martial Arts Primordial Spirit Realm!"

"Martial Arts Primordial Spirit?!

Ding Ling was startled:

’The upper limit is so high?’

"Yes."

The Female Drought Demon nodded, saying:

"Because the Divine Realm, Celestial Realm, and Demon Realm, compared to the Demon Realm and the human world, although also scarred, have only dropped a few ranks.

Unlike the human world, Demon Realm, and other interfaces, whose world rank dropped to nearly the bottom!

Thus.

The human world and Sword Realm’s upper limit is only Shattering Level Great Perfection!"

"?!"

Ding Ling didn’t expect such a situation.

It seems his guesses were not very accurate.

"And here?"

Ding Ling looked around.

"Here, because it is connected to portals with the Divine Realm and Demon Realm, yet separated from the human world, its upper limit is at the Golden Core Realm!"

The Female Drought Demon pointed to herself:

"I am quite special. The blood flowing within me is the Divine Blood of the Ancient Era, and because I am a Zombie Ancestor not belonging to the Five Elements or any world’s rank range. So my body and blood do not get greatly affected in such an environment. I can still exert my full strength.

Of course.

Compared to the Ancient God War days, now I am just a faint afterglow struggling to survive. Far inferior to my peak period back then."

Upon hearing this.

Ding Ling understood many secrets, but still had questions.
