Chapter 1379 - 730: Substitution and Sleight of Hand (Part 2)

"Are you out of your mind?"

However, neither the True Dragon nor the Five-Colored True Phoenix showed the slightest trace of anger, but instead, they simultaneously glanced at Golden Horn.

In the next moment, an apparition appeared on Golden Horn’s body.

That apparition twisted and coiled around Golden Horn’s body, extremely illusory, as if it might dissipate at any moment.

And it was precisely the Ba Snake!

"Greetings to the Ba Snake elder."

The True Dragon nodded slightly, and that was all.

"Ah, the future Demon Lord of the Dragon Clan, my inheritance, besides giving it to this little dragon, I’ve also given it to a Human Clan member. The two are evenly matched, entangled in a fate of unending rivalry, as I see it."

At this point, the Ba Snake chuckled, looking particularly pleased with itself!

Hearing this, many Demon Venerables present felt relieved, thinking that it was the Ba Snake Remnant Soul who had fallen here that was speaking.

In life, the Ba Snake was a bona fide Demon Race member.

So even treating today’s Dragon Master with such casualness was within reason.

"No worries."

The Dragon Master nodded slightly and said, "Let it be a tempering test for you. Before you ascend to the position of Daoist Master, the two of you will surely have a battle. The Power Dao is the path of conquest. If you cannot completely kill the other and sever your ties, even if you unexpectedly advance to the Realm of Daoist Lord, there will be little progress in the Power Dao."

"Exactly, exactly!"

The Ba Snake coiled around Golden Horn, speaking cheerfully:

"I’m also looking forward to this scene, so I attached my remnant soul to him. As a price, I’ll instruct him in his cultivation and see if he can surpass the other later!"

At this moment, even the White Tiger Demon Venerable, who had received the complete White Tiger Inheritance, couldn’t help but show a look of envy.

To be instructed constantly by a Demon Lord was something even Golden Horn couldn’t enjoy before this.

After all, Demon Lords often can’t reveal themselves, so Ao Qing had to be the substitute.

However, the Ba Snake had already fallen, and now it was just a wisp of remnant soul.

But despite being a remnant soul, having fallen in realm, its vision and experience remained. As a teacher, it was something beings of all kinds dreamed of.

At this moment, the Phoenix Lord suddenly spoke:

"Now, as this place is about to fall towards the Seventh Floor, we should also make preparations earlier."

Ten Thousand Gods Cave is of paramount importance for the Demon Race here.

Even though the powerful figures of the Heavenly Court had long perished, they had arranged this place so strictly that even two Demon Lords were reluctant to venture here easily to avoid being trapped.

This might not lead to their demise but would certainly give others an opportunity.

"After all, the one who arranged this is the former Heavenly Emperor, who was almost one with the Gods and Dao, and whose realm naturally surpassed ours."

The Dragon Master spoke calmly, without much extra emotion.

Being one with the Gods and Dao was both good and bad for the Demon Race.

Although it elevated their power continuously, it suppressed emotions, assimilating oneself.

The Phoenix Lord looked up towards the direction of the Golden Crow Tomb and said:

"I can feel that the Immortal Embryo is slowly being reforged. When that time comes, it will be our moment to act."

The rest of the Demon Venerables present were all stirred and quickly spoke.

"This time, with the joint effort of the two lords, we will surely break through here and seize the Immortal Embryo!"

"This time. It won’t be a repetition of the Heavenly Court’s downfall."

"Even if it costs our lives, we are willing to sacrifice!"

At this moment, the Dragon Master slightly lifted a Dragon Claw, and the scene immediately quieted down.

"Now, that one’s situation has already shown signs, so there is a need for preparation."

"When this world completely merges with the world fragments of the Sixth Floor and moves entirely to the Seventh Floor, there we must do our best to help them fuse their powers, and also lay some dark hands."

Hearing this, the many powerful figures present were instantly alert.

At the same time, the Phoenix Lord slightly lifted a hand, and a light spread out, merging into the bodies of the attending Demon Venerables.

In an instant, the wounds on these Demon Venerables quickly healed, not only that, but they also seemed to gain something else, making them feel particularly at ease and comfortable.

And they were especially solemn at this moment.

Because the true Demon Lord had acted!

Even if it was merely to heal them, it was extremely precious.

"Alright, next stabilize this place, merging those powers into the world we control, expanding the battleground as much as possible."

The Phoenix Lord spoke calmly.

And in the next moment, the apparitions of the two Demon Lords disappeared, leaving only a hint of aura on the throne.

With the departure of the Demon Lords, the expressions of many Demon Venerables present eased a lot, no longer so tense,

"Ao Qing, my friend, how should we act now?"

The Kunpeng Demon Venerable spoke deeply, inquiring of Ao Qing.

"The most crucial thing now is to refine this place!"

Ao Qing spoke without hesitation.

The Demon Race did not lack the ability to enter this place, as after the downfall of the Heavenly Court, they had the means.

But as the Immortal Embryo was incomplete, entering it would not only yield no benefits but also waste energy.

However, now with the Immortal Embryo about to be completed, it was a great opportunity for them.

"Moreover, we must let the power of both lords permeate this place!"

The Feng Yuan Demon Venerable glanced at Ao Qing and said coolly.

"Indeed."

Ao Qing nodded slightly, but his tone was rather cold.

Hearing this, the Demon Venerables present felt a chill in their hearts.

The reason the Demon Race could launch such a large-scale movement this time was that the Dragon and Phoenix Clans had opened up their reserves and used benefits to convince the strong to take risks.

But in general, this time it was the joint effort of the Dragon and Phoenix Clans.

However, there was indeed only one Immortal Embryo!

It couldn’t be that the Demon Lords of the Dragon and Phoenix Clans would reside within the same Immortal Embryo?

No matter how you look at it, that’s impossible,

They were bound to have a conflict.

It was for this reason that the Feng Yuan Demon Venerable dared to directly address Ao Qing now.

After the words fell, the many Demon Venerables present flew out of the virtual shadow of the Demon Race Imperial Palace and came to the Great Array they had previously arranged.

Ao Qing pressed his chest, took a sharp grasp, and then a bestowed golden scale rippled out.

With a hum!

A faint golden light spread, beginning to permeate this world.

Not only that, in the distance, the Feng Yuan Demon Venerable also lifted both wings, with five multicolored feathers fluttering on them.

The currently reigning Demon Lord from the Phoenix Clan was not an ordinary Fire Phoenix or a Golden Phoenix, but a very rare and closer to the Phoenix Clan’s bloodline origin, the Five Virtues Phoenix.

In an instant, the powers of the two Demon Lords pervaded this Great Array, and through this Array, it continued to invade the Golden Crow World.

Trying to invade the world of a Demon Lord or Daoist Master is extremely difficult.

It’s almost impossible!

However, the Golden Crow Emperor was ultimately dead.

The Demon Lord of the current era is ultimately the strongest.

Under the efforts of the two Demon Lords and many Demon Race members, the Golden Crow World was being invaded bit by bit as if its foundation was being replaced.

...

In that instant.

Waiting for a response from the Human Clan, Xi’e’s expression grew tense, "Indeed, the Demon Race has already taken action."

Hearing this, the many Human Clan strong members discussing the matter felt a tightening in their hearts.

"Senior, how are things on that side?"

"See for yourself!"

Xi’e flicked her finger, and a streak of light flew out, then displayed an image.

In that image, golden and five-colored brilliance were continuously spreading and eroding, expanding slowly but steadily.

Seeing this scene, the many strong members present were all taken aback.

"The two from the Demon Race have already started to invade the Golden Crow Small World. This action must be accelerated; we must stop them."

"Human Clan, you must give me an answer now, whether you are willing to join us or return the way you came. Either way, I am willing to accept it."

Xi’e spoke calmly.

Evidently, as the former Heavenly Empress and Daoist Master of the Demon Race, she naturally had some countermeasures prepared.
