Chapter 2459 - 2464: Departure

Chapter 2459: Chapter 2464: Departure

"You’re here."

Compared to before, the tone in which the Demon Mother spoke with Xia Liu had changed considerably.

It was as if she were speaking with a close ally.

"Well, I wonder what the Demon Mother wishes to discuss with me?"

Xia Liu went straight to the point.

The Demon Mother’s friendliness towards him surely had a deeper reason.

"Young Master Imperial, you like things straightforward, so I’ll speak plainly."

"The plan that the Demon Domain has been preparing for tens of thousands of years is about to commence, and I hope you’ll spare no effort to gain the trust of everyone in the Demon Domain from top to bottom."

"A plan tens of thousands of years in the making? Is it to attack the Cultivation Realm beyond the Weak Water Ocean?"

Xia Liu asked.

"Yes, for many millennia, the Cultivation Realm and the Demon Domain have been in an irreconcilable state. The Demon Domain has been preparing all this time in order to unify the Cultivation Continent."

"Alright, what should I prepare?"

Xia Liu’s strength was almost at its peak now.

In the Demon Domain, there probably wouldn’t be much more improvement.

If there was a chance to return to the Cultivation Realm, to purify his demon body in the place Bai Jue mentioned, perhaps he could achieve new heights!

Additionally, with his achievements in the Demon Domain, he might play a critical role in the upcoming war.

"Although I cannot discern your background, you likely don’t know much about the Demon Domain’s borders. The war might start in a few years. If you can, familiarize yourself with the terrain there first."

"Oh? You want me to go straight to the Borderlands?"

Xia Liu almost shouted out.

This was simply too good!

The reason he came here was precisely to head to the border and then find a way back to the Cultivation Realm!

Now the Demon Mother was actually volunteering to send him to the border.

How wonderful!

"Indeed, when the time comes, you will lead the Demon Domain’s armies, break through the space, head to the Cultivation Realm, and achieve victory in the first battle of the Demon Domain’s expedition."

"Absolutely!"

"Here is the Secret Order to activate the Chaos Primordial Innate Transport Formation, go ahead."

...

Holding the Secret Order in his hand, Xia Liu felt somewhat unreal.

"Elder Bai, what do you make of this?"

"I can’t see through it. The Demon Mother shouldn’t elevate you so easily."

Bai Jue, experienced and knowledgeable, had seen all sorts of people in his time.

Let alone the heartless Demon Class entities.

How could there be such a good opportunity?

"Never mind, as soon as I reach the border, I’ll attempt to break through the barrier and return to the Cultivation Realm."

"That’s the only choice."

No further response, Xia Liu continued on his way to the Great Thousand Realms.

Before leaving the Demon Domain, he wanted to greet those familiar to him in this land.

The first stop, Demon Hunter City in the Great Thousand Realms.

Ever since obtaining a new body, Duan Tian’s realm had fallen quite a bit.

Thus, he returned to Demon Hunter City to meditate in seclusion.

Today, Xia Liu visited, and the reclusive Duan Tian greeted him with a smile.

He could never forget all the things Xia Liu had done for him.

"It’s an honor that Young Master Imperial could visit me."

"Haha, my dear friend Duan Tian, you’re too courteous. No matter the time, I always consider you my friend!"

Xia Liu said with a hearty laugh.

"Likewise!"

"Friend, there’s something I wish to ask. No matter what happens, will our friendship continue until the end of this life?"

"Naturally!"

Duan Tian nodded without thinking.

"What if I become a Spirit Transformation Cultivator in the Cultivation Realm?"

Hm?

Duan Tian was taken aback, then chuckled, "Friend, don’t joke like that. Your demonic might rivals the ancient times, and with the Demon Eye, you are destined to achieve the Realm of Demon God!"

"What if I’m a Righteous Path Cultivator, are we still friends?"

"Of course!"

"Hearing that from you, I’m at ease!"

Duan Tian didn’t know why Xia Liu asked this.

Nor did he understand why he was so certain in his response.

Perhaps it was because of the deep trust they shared.

After briefly mentioning to Duan Tian about going to the border and the future war between the divine and the demonic, Xia Liu left.

He still had many places to go.

The border has many challenges awaiting him.

Xia Liu stayed in the Great Thousand Realms for half a month and finally arrived at a small country in the Borderlands.

Looking at the Purifying Ground of the Spectral Demon Clan, now a green landscape.

Xia Liu smiled wryly.

"Back then, this place granted me such fortune, and I repaid the Spectral Demon Clan’s kindness, allowing them to regain their former glory. Thus, the karma is complete."

Unbeknownst to Xia Liu, the Five Elements Wheel in his Sea of Consciousness began to glow.

The newborn Karma Slot gathered more liquid.

These were all Primordial Force of karma’s origin.

Yet Xia Liu hadn’t realized it.

Likewise, he couldn’t mobilize much origin power in the Demon Domain.

Here, Demon Essence symbolized true power.

Since exterminating the Blood Demon Clan, the Spectral Demon Clan and the Heavenly Demon Clan had both returned to their former prowess.

Now, the two clans are peacefully developing in this region.

Pushed by the march of time.

A millennium from now, these two demon clans might match the strength of many great nations.

Xia Liu did not disturb them.

He came quietly and left just the same.

The core domain of the Demon God Kingdom.

This place was a Forbidden Land of the Demon Domain.

Only in special circumstances or critical periods would it be opened to outsiders.

Today, Xia Liu came with the Secret Order.

Ten towering Demon God statues stood between heaven and earth.

Stirring the heart.

No sound was heard, yet demon might emanated of its own accord from the ten statues.

Xia Liu produced the Secret Order, and the demon might vanished.

A demonic voice followed immediately: "Honorable Crown Prince of the Demon Domain, where do you wish to go?"

"To the border of the Demon Domain closest to the Cultivation Realm."

"Understood."

In a voice of ancient melancholy, Xia Liu’s body began to float, ultimately aligning parallel with the eyes of the ten Demon God statues.

Buzz!

All ten Demon God statues opened their eyes simultaneously.

Ten demon eyes appeared instantly, twisting the very space Xia Liu was in.

Xia Liu’s body twisted and contorted like a liquid.

Without any pain, without time to think.

When Xia Liu emerged from the distorted Otherworldly Space, he heard the sound of the sea.

He saw before him a vivid blue seascape under a bright sky.

There was scarcely any demonic qi here.

Moreover, within the surrounding void and sky, there was a trace of Spiritual Energy!

"A familiar taste!"

As Xia Liu intended to converse with Elder Bai on how to return to the Cultivation Realm.

A giant Black Lotus emerged slowly on the sea’s surface.

The heavens suddenly changed color.

Lightning thundered, black clouds rolled in.

In an instant, it appeared apocalyptic.

Amidst the surging waves, a vast Demon Might approached.

Xia Liu’s indestructible body held its ground.

Yet he was still pushed back dozens of miles by the overwhelming Demon Might.

"The Black Lotus! Coupled with a hint of Buddhist aura! This is the Black Lotus Demon Buddha!"

He had heard of the Black Lotus Demon Buddha since he entered the Great Brahma Gate.

Ten millennia ago, the Black Lotus Demon Buddha and he shared the same experience.

After gaining a Buddhism Fate and inheriting the Supreme Divine Powers of the Great Brahma Gate, a twist of fate occurred.

Thus, the Black Lotus succumbed to evil and became a Demon Buddha.

Ultimately, it defeated countless powerhouses of the Great Brahma Gate, broke through the barriers of planes, and fled into the Demon Domain to become the true Black Lotus Demon Buddha!

As Xia Liu marveled, the Black Lotus opened.

A gigantic black Dharma Aspect rose from within...

P: Sorry, I’ve been visiting graves for two days straight. I made it back early yesterday, but today I’m really late, so there’s only one update. Please rest after reading. Truly sorry.
