Ruyi Jingu Bang

Immortal and Demonic Realms are teeming with powerful individuals. However, compared to the Cultivation World, there are simply more Void Returning Stage cultivators and a few at the Dao Integration Stage. After all, the Immortal and Demonic Realms are rich in Demonic Qi and immortal energy, providing a better environment for cultivation. Therefore, it is understandable that powerful individuals gather there.

However, in Zhuge Xiang's mind, the situation where there are Immortal-Demon level powerhouses everywhere is absolutely impossible, because even if there are Immortal and Demonic Realms, plus those who ascend from the Cultivation World, there can't be that many.

That makes sense when you think about it. In the Cultivation World, only a handful of people ascend to immortality every few hundred or even a thousand years, and who knows if they'll be from the Immortal Realm or the Demon Realm? If you calculate it that way, in ten thousand years, the Immortal and Demonic Realms would only have added a dozen or so Immortal-Demon level experts. How could there possibly be a situation where Immortal-Demon level experts are everywhere?

Furthermore, setting aside the Immortal Realm, the Demon Realm is a place where the strong rule and slaughter is commonplace. Over the past ten thousand years, the number of Immortal-Demon level experts who have ascended from the Cultivation World hasn't been enough to sustain their internal conflicts.

Therefore, upon arriving in the Demon Realm, Zhuge Xiang realized that Demon Realm wasn't as lofty and unattainable as he had imagined. Furthermore, the reason countless Cultivator sought to ascend to the Immortal and Demonic Realms wasn't because these realms were teeming with powerful immortals and demons; their ascension was solely driven by the incredibly dense immortal and Demonic Qi of those Immortal and Demonic Realms...

Of course, people in the Immortal and Demonic Realms are definitely stronger than those in the Cultivation World. Given the environment of the Immortal and Demonic Realms, even an ordinary person who never cultivates and simply basks in the aura of the Immortal and Demonic Realms for decades will acquire a certain level of strength.

In the Cultivation World, a general expert refers to Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator, while a strongman refers to Void Returning Stage cultivators. However, in the Immortal-Demon Tribulation, a general expert refers to Void Returning Stage cultivators, and a strongman is Immortal-Demon level cultivator, a common level that is one level higher than in the Cultivation World.

Originally, Zhuge Xiang had always harbored a question: These top-tier experts of the Great Accomplishment Stage were incredibly powerful and influential in the Cultivation World, reigning supreme. Yet, if they ascended to the Immortal and Demonic Realms, where Immortal-Demon level experts were commonplace, it meant they had fallen from their lofty positions to the mortal realm. Why then did so many powerful individuals still yearn for ascension?

Now, Zhuge Xiang finally understands that even if they ascend to the Immortal and Demonic Realms, they are still powerful beings!

In the Demon Realm, there are four Great Sages, one of whom is dead. The remaining three Great Sages are high above, transcendent and ethereal. Next are the Thirteen Great Emperors, who are considered the true top powerhouses, with status similar to that of the East Sea Dragon King and Liao Wufa in the Cultivation World.

As for ordinary Immortal-Demon level powerhouses, those who become emperors or kings number only a hundred or so. Compared to the Demon Realm with its hundreds of millions of Demonfolk, Immortal-Demon level powerhouses are absolutely high and mighty, much like the status of Cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Void Returning Stage Great Accomplishment Stage the Cultivation World.

The Six-Eared Macaque is originally a monkey, and Sacred Six-Eared Macaque Sacred Monkey Mountain is its place of cultivation. Naturally, monkey Cultivator can be seen everywhere on Sacred Monkey Mountain, including many powerful Demon Cultivator.

"Although we have arrived at Sacred Monkey Mountain, how do we meet the Great Sage Six-Eared?" The Black Water Profound Dragon, hovering above Sacred Monkey Mountain, asked Zhuge Xiang.

" In the Demon Realm, the strong are respected. If you want to gain respect from others, you have to show your strength. So, being assertive is never a bad thing," Zhuge Xiang said matter-of-factly after hearing Black Water Profound Dragon's words.

As he spoke, he revealed his Hundred Zhang- tall Dharma Avatar Demon Body, his fierce aura erupting like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing. Although Zhuge Xiang's cultivation was only at the Third Layer of the Dharma Aspect Realm, his strength was comparable to that of Immortal-Demon level expert.

In the Cultivation World, to meet someone, one needs to reveal one's identity and have someone announce one's arrival. It's best to be polite. However, in this Demon Realm, the strong are respected. There's no such thing as announcing arrival or sending a formal Visiting Letter. If you want to come, there's only one thing: strength. Show enough strength.

"Alright!" As Zhuge Xiang finished speaking, the Black Water Profound Dragon was slightly taken aback, then nodded in agreement. At the same time, it released its Xuanlong True Form, which lay horizontally on the Sacred Monkey Mountain. A thick and powerful Dragon Qi burst forth from the Black Water Profound Dragon's body.

In the Demon Realm, there are only about a hundred beings at the Immortal-Demon level. Even though Sacred Monkey Mountain is the Daoist temple of the Great Sage Six-Eared, there are only three or four at that Immortal-Demon level. As Zhuge Xiang and Black Water Profound Dragon unleashed their full power, all the monkeys on Sacred Monkey Mountain stared in horror at Zhuge Xiang and Black Water Profound Dragon in the sky. Two Immortal-Demon level beings? Arriving together?

"Two of you? Newly promoted Emperor-level powerhouses? You look unfamiliar..." Sacred Monkey Mountain, as expected of Great Emperor's Daoist temple, soon saw two dazzling lights appear, one black and one white. Two monkeys appeared, blocking Zhuge Xiang and Black Water Profound Dragon, and spoke.

These Black and White Monkeys, both exuded powerful auras, subtly surpassing even the Black Water Profound Dragon. Clearly, they were both at the Immortal-Demon level, capable of becoming emperors in the Demon Realm.

In the entire Demon Realm, there are only about a hundred Immortal-Demon level beings, so they are naturally very familiar with each other. However, Zhuge Xiang and Black Water Profound Dragon are complete strangers. Therefore, the Black and White Monkeys asked this question, assuming that the two of them are newly promoted Immortal-Demon level powerhouses.

"We two are not from the Immortal and Demonic Realms, but from the mortal Cultivation World. We have crossed the Weak Water River to seek an audience with the Great Sage Six-Eared," Zhuge Xiang and the Black Water Profound Dragon said, having demonstrated their strength and earned sufficient respect. They slowly concealed their auras.

When you first arrive, you should show your strength and act aggressively to gain the other party's attention. But if you continue to act aggressively after gaining their attention, it will be seen as provocation. Although Zhuge Xiang is new to the Demon Realm, he is quite familiar with how people behave there.

"From the Mortal Realm?" The Black and White Monkeys, were taken aback by Zhuge Xiang's unexpected answer and carefully examined Zhuge Xiang and the Black Water Profound Dragon.

Black Water Profound Dragon had indeed reached the level of Immortal-Demon level, but Zhuge Xiang only had the cultivation of the Third Layer of the Dharma Aspect Realm? This made the Black and White Monkeys secretly shocked. With a mere cultivation of the Third Layer of the Dharma Aspect Realm, he had strength comparable to Immortal-Demon level, so he was no ordinary person.

"Since you're from the Mortal Realm, then come. It's been a long time since we've seen Cultivator from the Mortal Realm come to the Demon Realm," a voice suddenly rang out from within Sacred Monkey Mountain before the Black and White Monkeys could answer.

This sound, as expected of a monkey's voice, was somewhat shrill. However, to Zhuge Xiang and the Black Water Profound Dragon, they could only sense that the sound was coming from Sacred Monkey Mountain, but they couldn't pinpoint its exact location.

"Since the Great Emperor has ordered you to go, then follow me." Upon hearing the Great Sage Six-Eared's words, the Black and White Monkeys naturally had no intention of stopping them. As they spoke, they led the way for Zhuge Xiang and Black Water Profound Dragon, entering the Sacred Monkey Mountain.

Sacred Monkey Mountain, though called a mountain, is magnificent and vast, covering thousands of miles Sacred Monkey Mountain. At a glance, there are probably hundreds of thousands of monkeys and their offspring, many of whom possess extraordinary cultivation.

That makes sense. The Demon Realm only has Thirteen Great Emperors, and the cultivation ground occupied by the Six-Eared Macaque, as one of the Thirteen Great Emperors, is naturally not to be underestimated.

Along the way, many monkeys and their offspring curiously observed Zhuge Xiang and Black Water Profound Dragon, clearly intrigued by their Immortal-Demon level strength. Although the monkeys were mischievous, they were still in the Demon Realm and respected the strong, so no monkey dared to come forward and tease the two. Zhuge Xiang traveled smoothly and soon arrived at the Six-Eared Demon Hall atop Black Water Profound Dragon Sacred Monkey Mountain.

Upon entering the Six-Eared Demon Hall, they saw a five-foot-tall monkey dressed in black armor, holding a dark red staff, sitting on Tiger-Skin Throne. Judging from the aura emanating from the tiger skin, it must have been a tiger demon of the Immortal-Demon level that had been killed and skinned.

Standing at five feet tall, it was short compared to the Human Clan, only reaching the chest of an average person. However, the ferocious aura emanating from this monkey made Zhuge Xiang and the Black Water Profound Dragon feel breathless, as if they were surrounded by mountains of corpses and Blood Sea.

Of course, the most eye-catching thing is this monkey, which has six ears that twitch slightly from time to time, as if it can hear anything it wants to know.

"Six-Eared Macaque, level???" Zhuge Xiang's Data Eye could not see any level information for the Six-Eared Macaque.

Although the Six-Eared Macaque was only five feet tall, he sat on his Tiger-Skin Throne, and his gaze swept over Zhuge Xiang and the Black Water Mysterious Snake, making the two feel an irresistible urge to kneel down and worship.

An existence at the Great Emperor level is indeed extraordinary, worthy of standing proudly at the top of the Demon Realm.

The Six-Eared Macaque's gaze swept over the Black Water Profound Dragon without lingering, but when it landed on Zhuge Xiang, its eyes lit up slightly. With a swift movement, it appeared in front of Zhuge Xiang, extending its claws to grab him. The Fiendish Aura emanating from the Six-Eared Macaque Zhuge Xiang, like a mountain of corpses Blood Sea, was enough to make one want to vomit.

Seeing the monkey's claw looming so close and growing ever larger, Zhuge Xiang's pupils contracted slightly. He hadn't even noticed how the Six-Eared Macaque Zhuge Xiang gotten so close, and he couldn't dodge the outstretched claw. It seemed that no matter how he dodged, Zhuge Xiang couldn't escape; no matter how he defended, he couldn't stop it...

Fortunately, the Six-Eared Macaque had no intention of harming Zhuge Xiang. Its claws were only two feet in front of Zhuge Xiang before reaching into the Void. When it pulled its claws back, it was holding a golden staff.

The golden staff trembled violently in the hands of the Six-Eared Macaque, resisting fiercely. However, the Six-Eared Macaque was, after all, Great Emperor level expert. He gripped the golden staff tightly in his hand, looked down at it carefully, and muttered, "This is... the Ruyi Jingu Bang)?"

"The Ruyi Jingu Bang?" Upon hearing the Six-Eared Macaque's words, Zhuge Xiang was secretly surprised. Wasn't that the Ruyi Jingu Bang the Sea Calming Divine Needle)? How could it have such a name? (To be continued...)
