Chapter 513 – The Demon Head



Chapter 513 – The Demon Head

A terrifying suction force instantly erupted. Qin Yu became the human incarnation of a black hole as the two vines which connected them together began to violently tremble.

“Ahhh!” Blue Cloud pitifully shrieked as she twitched and fell down. She cried for mercy, promising countless conditions. As long as Qin Yu was willing to forgive her and let her live, she would be willing to do anything.

Qin Yu wasn’t suspicious of her performance. When someone was pushed to the precipice of death, they would do anything in order to live.

But his eyes were still cold. This woman with the heart of a snake, how could he trust her?

Blue Cloud’s cries became even more intense and sharp. “Save me! Hurry and save me!”

Although she had guaranteed she wouldn’t reveal anything at all, she couldn’t bother with such things anymore.

In the wooden house, the Sage had a face full of wrath and anger. He never thought things would develop to this point. Hearing Blue Cloud pray for rescue, his complexion became even uglier. He took a deep breath and slowly thrust out a hand.

His old palm hung in midair. After a brief pause, it came slowly pressing down.

Not only did he need to rescue Blue Cloud, he needed to kill Qin Yu. He couldn’t allow such a peerless proud son of heaven to exist in the Demonic Path.

His talent already exceeded all within the world. If he were to obtain today’s good fortune also, he would surely dominate this era.

He had to die!

As this thought appeared, the cold light in the Sage’s eyes brightened.

Rumble rumble –

Within the skies of the small world, winds and clouds began to stir. Innumerable black clouds tumbled about, condensing into a giant terrifying palm.

This palm was so incredible that it almost occupied the entire vast skies. It slowly pressed down towards the earth. Before it had arrived, its aura had already locked onto Qin Yu.

Qin Yu’s body trembled and he looked up. As he saw the terrifying palm crashing down at him, his pupils shrank.

Who was it?

Within this small world, there was someone else hiding somewhere that he had yet to discover.

But since this person had such strength, it would have been enough to easily kill all of them originally. Why go to such lengths to put on a play?

Qin Yu wouldn’t know that the reason the Sage conducted everything in absolute secrecy was because he didn’t wish to be exposed and detected by the Demonic Path.

Now that he was forced to take action, he would do so with all his strength and exterminate Qin Yu!

Within his soul space, the Cosmic Seacross Bell wildly trembled as it resisted the terrifying impact against his soul. Simultaneously, the purple moon and blue sun began to illuminate a dazzling light as the burning feeling spread over his entire body once more.

Suddenly, the space in front of Qin Yu collapsed and a great sun appeared. Its light was so glorious that one couldn’t look directly at it.

Blue Cloud screamed one more time. The speed at which poison passed out from her rose drastically, instantly plundering her dry.

Her flesh and blood withered away; all that remained was skin and bones…the disparity of this was simply a single breath of time.

Pa –

Her skeletal corpse collapsed to the ground!

Perhaps she never imagined she would die in this small world.

But she had died here. Her countless years of patience and quietly enduring the silence…before her brilliance could illuminate the world, she had been snuffed out and returned to nothingness.

This was destiny. Even if it seemed bright and radiant, it was filled with black holes all over. Although a person could anticipate their future, they were never able to control it.

The Sage’s lips twitched. Numerous years of effort had been tossed away just like that, so there was no need to mention the grief he was feeling. But the truth was that he was too busy to care about Blue Cloud’s life or death. His pupils violently shrank and he took a step forward. His eyes pierced through space as he looked at the great sun surrounding in nothingness.

Although he had no idea what this great sun was, his instincts screamed at him. There was fear, but even more desire.

At this moment, a sudden thought appeared in the Sage’s mind. As long as he could obtain this great sun, the monster race would be unstoppable in the future.

The destiny of his race would obtain a complete change!

Obtain it…no matter the price…he had to obtain it…

The Sage’s eyes filled with a burning heat. Within his heaving gasps, his palm fell even faster.

Qin Yu didn’t think that even the little blue lamp would be forced to enter this small world on its own initiative. This in itself proved how terrifying this palm was.

He absolutely could not touch it!

With a thought, Qin Yu was just about to enter the Saint Son Token. He hoped that this Saint Son Token from the Ninerealm Holy Lands would be able to block this dreadful strike.

At worst, it would counterbalance the majority of the strength and allow him a slim chance of survival.

He had already killed one after another, but then one more came out and they were each stronger than the last…shit, would this ever end!?

As he cursed inwardly, a fierce burning pain appeared on Qin Yu’s back. The demonic face carved into the skin of his back had reappeared.

It opened its eyes, looked up towards the skies above, and emitted a silent roar!

Rumble rumble –

Within the small world, a million bolts of thunder appeared, the rumbling sounds capable of breaking apart mountains and rivers. Countless giant trees instantly disintegrated into powder. The bolts of thunder fell onto the terrifying palm. Then, from somewhere even higher in the skies, a demonic face appeared, torrential bloodl.u.s.t in its eyes.

Within the wooden house, the Sage’s burning hot eyes seemed to have a bucket of cold water poured over them. There was unwillingness in his complexion. But after blinking, he made a quick decision. He took a deep breath, suppressing his roiling thoughts. Then, he stepped forward and the wooden house around him instantly collapsed. He spat out a mouthful of blood and it instantly turned into a pool of blood before him.

The Sage withdrew his hand and fell face down into the blood pond, rapidly submerged by it. In the next moment, the blood pool began to boil over as giant air bubbles appeared from its surface. The pool of blood began to evaporate away.

After several breaths of time, the blood pond had dried up, but the Sage’s figure was nowhere to be seen.

After the terrifying palm lost its supporting strength, it continued a bit further before it could no longer maintain its boundless strength. It shattered in midair.

Bang –

A visible shockwave spread out in all directions, tearing apart all the clouds and causing the sky to become bright and clear. Qin Yu narrowed his eyes. His black robes fluttered about him and his body was still. He looked up at the demonic face that appeared in the skies and his thoughts raced.

When the Demon Ascension Gate opened, this demonic face had appeared on its doors. At that time, he remembered there had also been a burning pain on his back. Now, today, with this heaven-shaking strike, the demonic face appeared in the skies and the burning pain on his back reappeared one more.

Could this demon head in the skies have some connection to him?

Qin Yu never forgot that when he was hunting down the demon wolf king, an invisible strength had arrived and prevented the demon wolf king from exploding. This was highly likely to have come from this demon head.

Thinking about it, the only possible reason he could come up with was because he had gained Ning Ling’s demonic bloodline. Because back when he absorbed her bloodline, she had drawn this demon head on his back.

As this thought appeared, it was like a bolt of lightning tore through the fog in his mind. The previously blurry and unclear demon head in his thoughts now became clear.

It was exactly the same as the demon head that appeared in the skies.

Qin Yu didn’t have the chance to be startled or surprised. This was because after a clear sense of the demon head on his back appeared, a resonance suddenly came.

And this resonance was between the demon head on his back and the demon head in the skies!

Hum –

His mind trembled. An ancient and boundless aura instantly covered his soul. The low and dignified syllables of a man’s voice entered his ears.

This was a language that Qin Yu couldn’t understand. But strangely, he could understand its meaning.

This was because this blood resonance could only be activated by those that shared the same homologous demonic bloodline and subsequently obtain the inheritance contained within.

And the core of this inheritance was…imprisonment. Qin Yu finally became aware of the name of Ning Ling’s demonic bloodline. It was – the Blood of Restriction!

This foundation of this small world had been constructed using the ancient tree monster. The only reason it was able to exist until now was because it was fused in with the Blood of Restriction, using the bloodline’s strength to suppress the entire land.

“The gate of the world will open soon. Junior who comes from however many years in the future, do you plan on leaving the demon blood crystal for others?”

The demon head in the skies looked deeply at Qin Yu. Within the sea of blood red light, there seemed to be some warmth and gratification.

In the next moment, it vanished from sight.

Qin Yu bowed, a little bit of guilt in his heart. This was because he knew he didn’t have any bloodline at all.

But as he thought about he and Ning Ling didn’t divide things between them to begin with, he calmed down.

He looked up at the demon blood crystal. Then, suppressing his wounds, he struggled up to the surface and walked towards it.

Within Heavenly Demon City, a terrifying aura descended like an invisible mountain, suppressing everyone’s heart. The entire city was silent right now and not a single person dared to make even the smallest of noises.

This was because the entrance to the Demon Ascension Gate’s small world had yet to open. The Demonic Path’s great figures had tried countless methods but hadn’t managed to make any progress.

Somewhere in a great temple, the burning torches weren’t able to tear open the darkness, and darkness still covered a massive area. The giant demon statue stood tall and the two Demonic Path priests stood respectfully to the side. Now too far away was a white-robed figure.

His hands were held behind his back as he stood in front of the demon statue. His waist was stiff and straight and one couldn’t sense any awe in his demeanor. But, the two Demonic Path priests seemed to be unknowing of this. They turned a blind eye to this person, because to them, this person was the incarnation of the demon walking in the world.

Beneath his white robes, he resembled a quiet man in his thirties, wrapped in an aura of the years. Although he wasn’t too tall or large, he gave off an unsurpassable feeling.

“For what reason?” The white-robed man softly asked. His serene words constantly echoed through the temple.

Everything was quiet. But, he actually furrowed his eyebrows as if he had obtained some answer.

The two priests bowed. There was deep awe and reverence on their wizened faces.

The white-robed man continued to say, “Open the little world. I need to know exactly what happened.”

Another moment of silence.

The white-robed man frowned. With a single movement, the darkness in the temple seemed to harden, as if it would freeze.

After several breaths of time, he let out a light breath. “In two hours at most, the small world must be opened. Otherwise, I will do it myself.”

He turned and walked away, his figure submerging into the darkness.

The two priests respectfully bowed, “We see the Lord Demon Envoy.”

..

Within the small world, in a chaotic space, a towering skeleton sat cross-legged. The only reason this was described as towering was because its size was truly mind-boggling.

Even sitting, it was still several thousand feet tall. If it stood up it would surely surpass 10,000 feet in height. Every bone seemed like smooth crystalline jade. There were countless lines and patterns visible on its surface, giving it a strange aesthetic sense.

If one looked at these bones, their mind would be pulled into those lines and patterns. They would sink into a trance and be forever unable to extricate themselves.

Suddenly, two deep purple flames lit up in the depths of the skeleton’s eye sockets. They slowly beat.

“My lineage is unexpectedly still not severed. Hahaha, this is heaven’s will, this is all heaven’s will!

“Everything that the Demonic Path owes me shall be received by my descendants on my behalf.

“Storms shall surge within the Land of Divinity and Demons. The world will fall into chaos. I can see scenes of battle, life fading like flickering coals scattered across the ground!

“My descendant, I hope that you can ride the storm and take back everything our lineage lost.”

A low and deep roar constantly reverberated through the chaotic space!

The ancient tree monster thoroughly withered away. The yellow and gray leaves on the ground were hundreds of feet thick. The barren branches extended into the skies, like the final silent calls of an unwilling skeleton.

Suddenly, desolate winds rose up between the heavens and earth, sweeping away the thick leaves on the ground. Within the endless fluttering winds, a black-robed figure stood up. He looked up at the skies once more and then with a tap of his feet, space rippled. Like the surface of water, he walked straight through.

In the next moment, in the skies above the small world, a giant pair of doors began to slowly open.
