Demon Realm
On the shores of the East Sea, two figures swiftly streaked across the sky, their rapid movements exuding an incomparably powerful aura. These two figures were none other than Zhuge Xiang and the Black Water Profound Dragon.
The man and the dragon traveled hand in hand, exuding a terrifying aura. Although there were countless Demon Monsters in the East Sea Demon Monster, none of them dared to block Zhuge Xiang and the Black Water Jiao Dragon's path. Sensing the terrifying aura emanating from them, the Demon Monster of the East Sea couldn't even hide.
With Zhuge Xiang and the Black Water Profound Dragon's speed, they could quickly traverse even the vast, multi-million-mile- East Sea. The azure ocean, like a dividing line, intersected with another gray river, clearly separating the two.
"Chirp..." A seagull cried out in the sky, its wings flapping as it crossed the boundary between the East Sea and the Weak Water River. Visibly, the seagull's body rapidly decayed, and after falling into the Weak Water River, it vanished without even a ripple.
"The Weak Water River is indeed terrifying; even birds cannot cross it, and immortals and gods have perished there." Zhuge Xiang and Black Water Profound Dragon were both secretly shocked as they watched the seagull fall into the Weak Water River and disappear in an instant.
Even with their immense physical strength, both man and dragon knew they couldn't last long in the Weak Water River, let alone swim across its vast width of 18,000 Weak Water River.
"Even with special means, it's not so easy to enter the Demon Realm on your own. Without the barrier of the 18,000-mile-long Weak Water River, wouldn't people from the Mortal Realm be able to enter the Demon Realm easily?"
Although the corrosiveness of the Weak Water River Human Heart, Zhuge Xiang was able to express his understanding. Besides, it wasn't surprising that Three Great Evil Waters in the Three Realms Three Realms and Six Paths possessed such power.
As he spoke, Zhuge Xiang moved swiftly, waving his hand to summon the Sea Calming Divine Needle, which transformed into a massive pillar about Hundred Zhang long. This pillar was then plunged firmly into the Weak Water River.
As the Sea Calming Divine Needle was inserted, the Weak Water River, which had occasionally stirred up waves, became as still as Weak Water River calmed and stilled. Soon, a passage appeared in the River Water, and Zhuge Xiang and the Black Water Profound Dragon swiftly moved forward through this passage...
With the power of the Sea Calming Divine Needle, the Weak Water River was stabilized. The Weak Water in front kept parting, while the Weak Water behind slowly closed again after Zhuge Xiang and the others left. Zhuge Xiang and the Black Water Profound Dragon walked slowly, but their speed was incredibly fast, towards the other side of the Weak Water River.
As one of the Three Great Evil Waters, the Weak Water River is filled with terrifying corrosiveness, capable of completely corroding even the physical bodies of immortals and gods. Therefore, when Zhuge Xiang and the Black Water Profound Dragon walked in the Weak Water River, they did not see any Aquatic Clan living there, nor did they see any life that could survive in the Weak Water River.
After traveling for three full days, Zhuge Xiang and the Black Water Profound Dragon finally crossed the entire Weak Water River and arrived in the Demon Realm.
While traveling along the Weak Water River, Zhuge Xiang took advantage of the few days to open the Mysterious Treasure Chest and complete the mission of 'Rescue the Princess'. Not only did his cultivation level rise from the first level of the Dharma Aspect Realm to the Third Layer level, the mission also rewarded Zhuge Xiang with a Mysterious Treasure Chest.
The opened Mysterious Treasure Chest yielded a piece of equipment, which was very useful for Zhuge Xiang.
Bloodthirsty Spirit Ring (Twelve Star Spiritual Treasure): Attack +37000, Active: Bloodthirsty Power, consumes current HP to increase the attack power of the next attack. Every 2 HP points increases attack power by 1 point. Cooldown 3600 seconds, Duration 260/360, Weight 1.
The Mysterious Treasure Chest yielded a Ring Twelve Star Spiritual Treasure, which was quite good. Zhuge Xiang didn't expect to easily obtain a Half-Immortal Artifact Grade artifact.
Furthermore, the Bloodthirsty Spirit Ring is very powerful. Although it is not Half-Immortal Artifact, it is not far off, especially the Bloodthirsty Power, which is even more formidable for Zhuge Xiang.
This Bloodthirsty Spirit Ring, if it fell into someone else's hands, might only unleash a Bloodthirsty Power of around 100,000 to 200,000 at most. However, in Zhuge Xiang's hands, with his million-level HP, once it is unleashed, it will absolutely terrify anyone.
"We've arrived! The Demon Realm!" After traveling for three days and three nights in the Weak Water River, the Black Water Profound Dragon suddenly spoke.
As it finished speaking, an incomparably powerful force suddenly erupted. In the distance, one could Void see a Chains binding the Black Water Profound Dragon. At that moment, the Chains on the Black Water Profound Dragon shattered completely.
Without the restrictions of the Heavenly Dao, the Black Water Profound Dragon finally truly reached the Immortal-Demon level.
"So powerful..." Zhuge Xiang murmured to himself, sensing the aura emanating from the Black Water Profound Dragon.
Although the power suppressed by the Heavenly Dao was only a difference of one level, this one-level difference was like the difference between heaven and Heaven and Earth. As his cultivation fully entered the Immortal-Demon level, the aura on the Black Water Profound Dragon increased by more than ten times.
"Is this the power of Immortal-Demon level? It's incredibly strong..." Even in human form, the Black Water Profound Dragon still exuded Human Heart aura. He lowered his head, clenched his fists, and murmured to himself.
Although the Black Water Profound Dragon still possesses the qualifications for ascension, having remained in the Cultivation World, he has never had the opportunity to truly experience his own power. Now, he can finally properly feel his own power.
"Is this the Demon Realm? It is indeed filled with Demonic Qi..." Although he was shocked by the aura emanating from the Black Water Profound Dragon, when he turned around and looked at the Demon Realm, Zhuge Xiang's face was filled with amazement.
The Demon Realm is very different from the Cultivation World. In the Demon Realm, the sky is blood red, as if stained with blood, the earth is grayish-white, and the air is filled with pure and rich Demonic Qi, which is absolutely incomparable to the Cultivation World.
As expected of a higher plane, a mechanical notification sounded in Zhuge Xiang's mind, indicating that in this Demon Realm, whether he was Cultivation Technique or drawing power from the Demonic Qi wandering between Heaven and Earth and earth, the speed at which he gained Experience Points was more than three times that of the Cultivation World.
"Indeed, the Demonic Qi here is fierce, so much so that the people of the Demon Realm are all warlike," Black Water Profound Dragon nodded in agreement after hearing Zhuge Xiang's words and sensing the aura contained within the Demon Realm.
The Demon Realm is home to billions of beings, and it's impossible that they all flew up from the Cultivation World. Most of the Demonfolk in the Demon Realm are like ordinary people in the Cultivation World, reproducing and multiplying. These Demonfolk cubs born from this world have virtually no power.
However, because the Demon Realm possesses pure Demonic Qi, the Demonfolk in the Demon Realm cultivate much faster than Cultivator in the Cultivation World. Moreover, compared to ordinary people in the Cultivation World, even without cultivation, the Demonfolk Demonic Qi contained in the Demon Realm will strengthen their physical bodies over time, making their strength far surpass that of ordinary humans.
In general, the Demonfolk of the Demon Realm are physically very strong due to their Demonic Qi energy, and most of them possess a certain level of cultivation and strength. However, not all of the billions of Demonfolk in the Demon Realm possess the power of Immortal-Demon level. Those who truly possess the power of Immortal-Demon level are a minority. Some of them are Demon Realm Demonfolk who have cultivated to this level, while others are those who have ascended from the Cultivation World.
"With such dense Demonic Qi, even someone who knows nothing about Cultivation Method would gain considerable Demonic Qi by immersing their body in it over time," the Black Water Profound Dragon, with its Immortal-Demon level cultivation, exclaimed, deeply sensing the intensity of the Demon Realm Demonic Qi in the Demon Realm.
"Who are you two? Why are you here?" Just as Zhuge Xiang and Black Water Profound Dragon were marveling at the pure Demonic Qi permeating the Demon Realm, a sharp shout suddenly rang out, and then a graceful figure appeared in front of Zhuge Xiang and Black Water Profound Dragon.
"Ghost Princess, Great Accomplishment Stage, Second Layer".
Seeing this suddenly appearing figure, the data displayed by the Data Eye made Zhuge Xiang secretly startled. As expected of the Demon Realm, even beings with the Great Accomplishment Stage cultivation could be seen everywhere.
"Miss, we are lost people who stumbled upon this place by chance. Please forgive us if we have offended you in any way," Zhuge Xiang said with a smile, though he was amazed by the Ghost Princess's cultivation level. He did not want to cause any trouble.
Zhuge Xiang's polite words caused the Ghost Princess to frown, her long, beautiful eyebrows furrowing. She carefully examined Zhuge Xiang and the Black Water Profound Dragon, then her expression changed drastically, and she exclaimed in surprise, "You? Are people from the Immortal Realm?"
The Ghost Princess's sudden exclamation startled both Zhuge Xiang and Black Water Profound Dragon, who couldn't understand why she would say such a thing.
However, before Zhuge Xiang and Black Water Profound Dragon could explain, Ghost Princess's figure suddenly swayed and disappeared like a wisp of smoke. Even Zhuge Xiang's Divine Sense could not pinpoint her location.
"Oh no, she's trying to escape!" Black Water Profound Dragon, after all, was a cultivator at the Immortal-Demon level with powerful Divine Sense, but he could only barely catch a faint trace of the Ghost Princess's aura as she rapidly fled into the distance. Black Water Profound Dragon's expression changed drastically, and he said in a deep voice.
"No matter what! We can't let her get away," Zhuge Xiang, his face darkening.
Although neither he nor the Black Water Profound Dragon came from the Immortal Realm, if the Ghost Princess were to notify the experts of the Demon Realm, it would be entirely detrimental to him.
As he spoke, Zhuge Xiang waved his hand, and a totem flew out from his palm, stuck in the ground, and a layer of milky white ripples spread out in all directions from the Zhuge Xiang.
Soon, the figure of the Ghost Princess appeared beneath the ripples; this was none other than Zhuge Xiang's True Sight Vine!
