Mo Li Jin, also known as Ling Xiao's third incarnation, is a man dressed in black robes, shrouded in darkness, and full of demonic power.
In order to make himself more like a demon and gain the approval of the demons in the True Demon Palace, Ling Xiao deliberately imitated the behavior of his Heart Demon.
You don't even need to imitate it deliberately; just open your mind and release the evil in your heart.
At this moment, Mo Li Jin exuded a mysterious and evil aura, his demonic nature drawing attention.
Wherever he goes, he becomes the center of attention; those who don't know him might mistake him for a high-ranking member or a great master of the True Demon Palace on an inspection tour.
Even the staff of the True Demon Palace couldn't help but mutter complaints in their hearts when they saw Ling Xiao.
"Is this someone sent down from above to conduct an inspection?"
I've never seen such a pure demon.
"Good heavens, this guy is also here to take the test. Just based on his appearance, the True Demon Palace would have to take him in."
"Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant! With such a distinguished appearance, you've already won at the starting line."
Many examinees secretly regretted not putting more effort into their appearance.
Ling Xiao overcame numerous trials with ease, his outstanding performance leaving the generals of the True Demon Palace thoroughly impressed.
"This child's demonic nature is too pure; he's practically a born demon. We must take him in."
"I never expected there to be such a talent in the Mysterious Heaven Realm. No, I must take this person as my disciple."
"Strange, could this person have visited the Primal Demon Sect? Otherwise, how could he have grasped the essence of Devil Dao so deeply?"
"This young man is quite capable; he has the potential to become a divine general."
True Demon Palace, a group of demons gazed at Ling Xiao's figure, uttering sounds of admiration.
The Baleful Demon who captured the Snow Heaven Clan was among them.
These demons saw in Ling Xiao the essence of Devil Dao prodigy and a person of the Devil Dao path.
They all looked at it like a rough piece of jade, with the intention of carving it.
"This boy needs no assessment; accept him directly as a candidate for divine general."
One of the devils suggested that all the assessments and such were unnecessary.
"Isn't this a bit inappropriate? We should follow the rules."
"What rules? Our True Demon Palace is the rule."
"Alright, enough talk, bring him here, that's settled."
One of the demon gods spoke impatiently. He was the number one ranked general of the True Demon Palace, sitting there exuding unparalleled demonic power.
"Good!"
Immediately, a divine general nodded and left the True Demon Palace, bringing Ling Xiao back shortly afterward.
"Young man, what's your name, and where are you from?"
The demons looked at Ling Xiao with satisfaction and conducted a brief inquiry.
Ling Xiao surveyed the powerful demon gods in the main hall, paused for a moment, and replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"My name is Mo Li Jin, and I come from the Mysterious Heaven Realm."
"Mo Li Jin... what a great name!"
Upon hearing the name, the demons immediately showered him with praise, saying that even his name had such a Devil Dao air, and this boy was fit to join the True Demon Palace.
"Boy, have you ever been to the Primal Demon Sect?"
At this moment, the number one demon god suddenly spoke, his enormous body radiating an aura like that of an abyss.
He was unlike a human; he had a pair of sharp horns on his head and dark skin, as if it were made of black gold, and he crawled out of a pool of deep, muddy abyss.
Upon hearing this question, Ling Xiao's heart stirred. Clearly, these demons had a great connection with the Primal Demon Sect.
But it's hard to say exactly what their relationship is.
After a brief silence, as countless thoughts flashed through his mind, Ling Xiao finally made his decision and slowly nodded under the gaze of the many demon gods.
"I've never been to the Primal Demon Sect, but I know the Holy Maiden of the Primal Demon Sect, Mu Tianqing."
His purpose in coming here was to infiltrate the area and rescue the Snow Heaven Clan and others.
Therefore, the higher one's status and the more powerful one is, the easier it is for the villains to lower their guard, allowing one to infiltrate their ranks and learn many secrets.
Since entering the territory of the True Demon Palace, he has not detected the presence of the Snow Heaven Clan and others, presumably they are hidden in a very secluded place.
Only by becoming one of us can we truly understand everything here.
Therefore, Ling Xiao's mention of Mu Tianqing was partly a gamble.
Fortunately, his gamble paid off. When the demon gods heard the name of Mu Tianqing, the Holy Maiden of the Demon Sect, they immediately showed expressions of surprise.
"Good lad, you actually know the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect. What's your relationship with her?"
A demon god asked impatiently, his words revealing a sense of respect.
Hearing this, Ling Xiao gradually understood the situation, and an arrogant expression naturally appeared on his face.
"My acquaintance with her was purely by chance. Mu Tianqing saw that I had the potential to become a Demon Emperor and wanted to invite me to join the Primal Demon Sect, even promising me the position of Holy Son."
But I thought the Primal Demon Sect was too far away and I was unfamiliar with the area, so I declined her offer.
He looked completely calm, as if he were recounting something trivial.
But to the demons, it was like a thunderclap from a clear sky.
"What? You actually rejected her?"
"Holy crap! Kid, do you even know what the concept of a Holy Son of the Primal Demon Sect means?"
"You bastard! How could you refuse her? Do you even know that the Primal Demon Sect is the supreme holy land of our Devil Dao?"
"Where did the Holy Maiden go? Is it possible to contact her? Is it too late to agree now?"
The demons were all in an uproar, scratching their heads excitedly, wishing they could replace Ling Xiao and join the Primal Demon Sect.
Ling Xiao was speechless for a moment; he couldn't quite understand these demons' obsession with the Primal Demon Sect.
I can't believe he got this excited.
"Alright! Shut up, all of you!"
The number one ranked demon god shouted, and his majestic voice instantly silenced all the noise.
"If Mo Li Jin had agreed to join the Primal Demon Sect, how would he have had the opportunity to come here? Nor would he have joined my True Demon Palace."
"I think there must be a reason why Mo Li Jin didn't agree."
At this point, the demon looked at Ling Xiao, his ugly face filled with a kind smile.
"Thank you for your understanding, senior."
Ling Xiao cupped his hands in greeting, feeling a bit strange. The demon's smile was off, giving him an instinctive sense of unease.
"Since Mo Li Jin has gained the approval of the Holy Maiden of the Demon Sect, there is no doubt about his strength. I will report to the Palace Master immediately and appoint him as a Divine General."
The First Divine General looked around and said loudly, no longer dwelling on the topic.
The demon generals nodded slightly, offering no objection.
At that moment, a phantom slowly appeared and solidified in the main hall.
This is the image of a handsome middle-aged man, exuding a natural and refined charm.
Upon seeing him, the demons quickly bowed and paid their respects, their faces full of reverence.
"Lord of the Palace!"
"Master of the Palace..."
"..."
"Get up, all of you." The middle-aged man smiled slightly, his gaze fixed on Ling Xiao.
"From now on, you will be a Divine General of the True Demon Palace, ranking twenty-fifth."
"Thank you, Lord Palace Master!"
Ling Xiao cupped his hands slightly and smiled.
The True Demon Palace nodded and continued:
"Let me introduce you to a genius."
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and waved it, and a dark shadow appeared behind him.
